Subject: [PW!][NC] Our guide is a Mime?? Date: Tue, 6 Apr 1999 21:49:35 -0000 From: "Alyssa" <thefews@primenet.com> Organization: Co-Priestess of the Church of Mountain Dew Newsgroups: alt.games.nintendo.pokemon Karana-kun, this kinda hasta be NC. It's related to "An Abra's Reflections, and a Cat's Call", which has no effect on the normal continuity, soooo... Anyway. Minor mistake, I don't think you'll be flamed out of existence for it ;) ------ "And by the way, you can help me. Have you seen an Abra walking around... about yea high... blue eyes, really cute?" Angel thought about that for a little while before shaking her head. "I saw an Abra being auctioned off in Celadon, but it didn't fit that description." "Perrrsian!" Neko mrowled. "Wiggly tuff wiggly," Mace lamented from Alyssa's shoulders. Angel noticed the Wigglytuff for the first time and blinked at it. It blinked back at her innocently. Alyssa was oblivious to all this, sighing mournfully. "Poor Mars. I hope he's okay." "Perrrrr," Neko agreed subduedly. She'd been the one who'd found the little Abra, and for all her grumbling about the dishonorableness of psychics, she was really rather fond of Mars. Angel snapped out of her trance, ignoring that insistent call. "Is Mars his name?" Alyssa nodded. "It's the name of a prince. I just figured it suited him... dammit, what is that confounded tugging?" Angel was instantly alert. "Is it like a call?" "Yeah. Exactly. It feels like it's meant for someone else and I'm just getting the echoes... but I feel like I HAVE to follow it." "Me too!" Angel squeaked. "Hallo!" a jovial voice cried out to the two girls. Both turned to look at the source of the voice. It was a Mr. Mime hanging onto a lamppost, looking quite cheerful. "What's a wild Mr. Mime doing running around in the streets?" Alyssa muttered. "I know Saffron's famous for psychics, but..." "I not wild! I trained! Master taught me speech, that why I talk! Hallo, girls, you hear call too?" "...Well, Angel does, I'm just feeling a dim tug..." Alyssa said, and would have said more had not the jubilant Pokemon cut her off. "No matter, no matter!" The Mr. Mime swung down from the lamppost and landed near Alyssa and Angel, hopping over to them. "You hear call! Come, come! Mew call all able psychics!" Alyssa did NOT want to get involved in this. "I'm not an able psychic, all I can do is talk to my Abra..." "No matter!" The Mr. Mime repeated, pointing a finger at Alyssa. "Psychic strength not always found immediately! You could be strong!" Alyssa resorted to telepathy. ((Look, I don't want to get involved in this. I want to find Mars, I don't want to follow this stupid call or whatever it is.)) To her surprise, the Mr. Mime responded mentally. ((If you want to find your Abra, Alyssa Halver, you will follow Mew's call.)) Alyssa reeled, surprised at the Mr. Mime's mental speech. "Okay, okay, I'll go." She turned to Angel. "I guess you're gonna come, too?" Angel nodded. The Mr. Mime needed no more words. ((Come on,)) he told both girls. ((Follow me, I'll know where to go. The call is strongest to psychic Pokemon. My name is Robert, by the way. You can call me Rocky if you like.)) ------ Ya no, this would be a great time for a Rocket to step in. There's HORDES of psychic Pokemon, many of whom are rare, flocking to Mew... and since this is NC, Mew CAN be captured, so I imagine this would be a field day for greedy Rockets. And we need more people in this storyline so it can be figured out WHY Mew is calling all these psychics! <gets down on knees and begs> Please, minna-sama, somebody help out here! -- Lyssie Obssessive fan of Raichu, Mew, and James-sama "There really must be a society against cruelty to James." -- Maria (I agree! Only YOU can save James from Jessie's paper fans of death!) "I admit, I set him on fire once with my magic paper fan." -- Corynn "If you took a Mega Kick to the most sensitive part of your body, how eager would you be to jump up and run after a Pokemon?" -- James, from an IM roleplaying session "Yes, ma'am, I know everything but the answers." -- Peppermint Patty "Pretty mother, so graceful in the water. Too bad I have to kill you." -- Tentacruel, from one of my fanfics "Fungus Terpsichoreus Kawaiius!" -- Me "For some reason, I seem to be losing my liqui-ibrium!" -- James (well, how would YOU spell it?)
