From: Dryad48 <dryad48@aol.com> Subject: [PW!] The Power Plant Mystery Date: Sunday, April 25, 1999 3:12 PM -----Derrick had split up from Dern----- Venonat couldn't stand Derrick stepping on it, so Derrick returned it. "There's nothing interesting here," Derrick shouted to Dern. "We might as well leave." He listened for a reply, but didn't receive one. "Hello?" "Magne....." Derrick had the feeling he was being watched. He sped around quickly. He could only observe darkness. Beyond that was darkness, and beyond that was darkness. Derrick turned to his left and saw a brighter, but still dim, light. Of course, he walked towards it curiously. "Inside, there were a few boxes and many oversized pokeballs. "Hmm, these may come in handy," he spoke to himself. He turned them around and saw what apeared to be a face. "Huh?" "Voltorb!" "Auuhhhhh! A Voltorb!" Derrick tossed the pokemon to the others and ran. the huge Explosion did some good. It lit up the place and Derrick could now see in front of his face. He looked up and saw through the air vents what appeared to be many sphere shaped objects rushing through. "Raichu." Derrick turned around to find another pokemon looking at him in a funny way. Raichu ran away with Derrick chasing it. It led him to a room wich appeared to be empty and hopped through a small hole in the wall. "Just great!" Suddenly, small, dim blue lights went on surrounding him. "Magnemite..." "Magneton..." "What is going on here?" he wondered. "And where the heck is Dern?" -----Meanwhile, on the other side...----- Dern was also wandering endlessly through the rooms. "What IS that smell?" he thought. "Oh yeah! My new pokemon! What is it?" He took out the smelly poke-ball. Just then, a Pikachu rushed by his legs making him fall over. The ball fell out of his hands and rolled away. "Pikachu?" "Go away!" Dern got back on his feet and looked around. "Uh oh...... where is it?" He searched and serached until Pikachu jumped in front of him with the pokeball. "Pikachu!" "Hey! Give that back!" Dern chased after Pikachu and rammed his head accidentally into a wall. He was now far behind, but when he got to Pikachu, it was fainted with Sludge all over it. "What the....." "Grimer." "Grimer!" "Grimer?" "Grrriiiiimmmerr." Dern turned around to find a group of Grimer, obviously, and one was holding his pokeball. "l'VE HAD ENOUGH! GIVE THAT BACK!" "Grimer!" They threw the ball at Dern's face. "OW!" The ball landed on the floor and out came a........ "MUUUUUUUUUUK!!!!!" "Grimer, Grimer, Grimer, Grimer." the blobs of sludge started bowing down to Muk and chanted. "................." Dern remained still and confused.
