And it certainly WAS cold in seafoam islands. No wonder so many ice and water pokemon lived here. Fortunatly his wings provided a little extra warmth, though not much, He got on Lapras who was completely oblivious to the cold, and surfed down the river inside the cave. Suddenly he hit a dead end. He climbed back up to the shore and sat there resting. Lapras returned to his pokeball. Jake walked away from the river until he reached a solid sheet of ice. "Go Pyro, Tiamet and Reaper" His Rapidash, Dragonite and Scyther appeared. "Pyro Flamethrower. Timaet Dragon Rage, Reaper Slash Attack." They began to pick and melt away the ice. Soon the ice was gone and a new pathway appeared. He returned his pokemon to his pokeballs. he walked down this new passage way until a new block of ice appeared. He did the same thing as before. And soon he was within the lair of Articuno. the bird was perched inside a nest of snow and icicles. Jake grinned this was his chance. Articuno looked up. "CuNo" it yawned and stretched it's wings. "Reaper use a Slash attack." "Scyther!" reaper yelled and slashed at the ice bird. Articuno got pretty ticked off at that. "ARRRRTTTTTIIIICUNO!!!!" It flapped its wings and blew Reaper away. The rush of wind also blew Jake's jacket off revealing his wings. "Cuno?" Jake realized that he was probably not going to capture the bird so he whipped out his camera and quickly took a picture of him. Articuno, who apparently likes to have his picture taken spreads his wings and lowers his head, posing. jake takes a quick couple photos and puts the camera away. Articuno flaps back to his nest and goes back to sleep. soon he is snoring away. Jake decides he want's one more souvenir. He quietly sneaks closer and snags a handful of shedded ice blue/silver feathers. then leaves the lair. The Saint
