A very worried Nurse Joy fretted over her newest patient.
*beep*
*beep*
"Heal him," she had been told. "Find out what's wrong and fix it."
Normally, she would do that without question, but the *tone* of it had
her worried. And for good reason, she thought after learning who the
patient was.
*beep*
*beep*
"C'mon, Mimic, wake up. Please."
Meanwhile, in another city, a tiny dratini introduced itself to Icy as
Mimic. Before Icy could reply, though...

As fate turned out, though, Icy would not have to choose his
conversation this time. A nearly monomolecular strand, invisible to the
naked eye, lead up from the dratini, wafting on the air currents over
several miles, until it finally lead into the nonresponsive lump of
Mimic at Ivory Island. A head and a foot, almost.

As they ran, Simon's hair intersected the strand that was Mimic's body.
A few hairs were sliced off by the razor-sharp wire before the wind of
Simon's passing blew it away, but the sensation was enough to jolt Mimic
into collecting himself at that point.
Simon tensed, *feeling* a new presence where there had been none. It
was a sense beyond psychic, one which all animals - humans, pokemon, and
others, if one believed the legends that there *were* any other kinds of
animals - shared. Many had speculated on its origins; some scientists
ascribed it to a combination of air pressure, shadows, and sounds too
faint to be consciously noticeable.
He slowly turned around, wondering if perhaps Dreadite had caught up to
him...
"Ohh...Mimic no feel too good."
Simon blinked. Hadn't he just taken Mimic to Ivory Island?
"Mimic kidnapped, then kidnapped, then eaten...err, trainer no going to
eat Mimic again, Mimic hope."
He realized his mouth had been hanging open, so he slowly closed it.
TBC?
