Subject: [PW!] Rendevous point: on the road Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 05:06:56 GMT From: Adrian Tymes <wingcat@pacbell.net> Organization: Prodigy Internet http://www.prodigy.com Newsgroups: alt.games.nintendo.pokemon "If Mimic brother here, probably insist upon dramatic entrance. Melt out of road, teleport to their side...something more than just stand around wait for Sarah and company." Drake folded his arms and leaned against a cherry tree in full bloom, unwittingly shaking it a bit and causing sakura petals to fall - though mostly on and around Mimic. "Yeah, well, he's not. Don't worry, your friends should be along any minute." "Mimic!" The called pokemon turned around, and saw his friend running towards him, with her friends not far behind where they had just crested a hill. In certain dramatic recreations, a choral background music might have played as time slowed down, and perhaps the scene where they met and hugged might have been rendered into a classic painting and used as one of the promotional images. As it was, the whole sequence took but a minute, including time for Barbie to take offense, squirm in between the two, and push Mimic away, knocking him and Sarah to the ground in the process. Sarah sat up and protested, "Barbie!" "Laff." "It's no laughing matter. That was a very rude thing to do!" "Is ok." Mimic stood back up, then helped Sarah do likewise. "Barbie evolved?" "Yeah. Isn't it great?" "Hmm." Mimic shrugged. "Mimic change bodies so often, almost forget how important can be to others." Meanwhile, Travis and Becky were sizing up Drake, Travis more confidently than Becky. "So, you were the three in the silo last night? Which one of you was dancing?" Drake nodded to Mimic. "His brother. He left on his own quest." "By way," Mimic interrupted, "misdiagnosed what attacked uncle. Doppler in arbok form, not weedle." "Oh." Sarah blinked. "WHAAAAAT?!?!? Y-y-your b-brother..." "Is Mimic's fault. Mimic say Mimic concerned being cooped up and used as slave no good for Sarah. Mimic should have known Doppler react like significant threat Sarah's health. He try take uncle's life save Sarah's." TBC?
