From: Magic T. Dragon <cvilagi@earthlink.net> Subject: [PW!] Lost... Date: Wednesday, April 14, 1999 8:31 PM [last time on the PW!: Natasha was on the bus to Viridian City, when it ran into a ditch. She escaped a mob and used her Micro$oft Pokédex to find her location. Cubone wandered off. Natasha found him, but lost the trail. Now, our story continues...] Natasha spun around twice, baffled. The path had disappeared. "Charmander, you were with me! Which way were we going?" Charmander pointed in one direction, then another. Natasha groaned. "First the bus, now this..." She sighed, sitting back on the ground. "Does this stupid Pokédex even have a compass in it?" The Pokédex displayed a picture of a pointed compass, used for drawing circles. Natasha smacked it again. "Charrr...mandercharrr..." Charmander hopped from one foot to another, nervous about something. "What is it, sweetie?" Cubone began talking to Charmander about something. Both pulled on Natasha's left leg. "Okay, what is it..." She looked forward. A Weedle was sitting a few feet away, looking at the team. Natasha grinned. "I'm gonna catch it! Cubone, go!" Cubone reluctantly moved forward. The Weedle just sat there. "Eedle? Wee Weedle?" "Bone?? Cubone bone cu Cubone!" Natasha stared at the two. "Cubone...uh..." She pulled her spare Pokéball off her beltloop. "Er...Pokéball, go?" Rather confused by the scene, she tossed the Pokéball at Weedle. It bounced twice, rolling into Weedle. The Weedle disappeared. Natasha held her breath as the Pokéball shook once, twice, thrice...and stopped. The light on front went out. "YEAH! I caught it!" She picked up the Pokéball, laughing. "Weedle, go!" Weedle again materialized before her. "Weedle, eedle wee Weedle!" Charmander answered this time. "MANDER! Char mander mander charchar manderchar!" The three Pokémon started moving forward, Charmander and Cubone waiting up for the much slower Weedle. Natasha followed, puzzled. --Natasha V. "CHARR!" "Bone bone Cubone!"
