From: Dryad48 <dryad48@aol.com> Subject: [PW!] Aurora's Sinking Feeling Date: Saturday, May 15, 1999 9:39 PM Aurora had already received the Cascade Badge so, she didn't have much to do in Cerulean City. She headed out on the first plane to the airport nearest Grandpa Canyon, which was in Fushia City. <<Hours After Plane Trip>> -----The Shores of Fushia----- From the seashores while the sun was begining to set, Aurora caught sight of Grandpa Canyon in the distance. Instead of getting a head start though, she sat on the rocks and took out her fishing rod. Right away, her hook had a hold on something. "Wow! It's a big one!" She pulled incredibly hard and out of the water flew...... "Yaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!" "A swimer?" she asked herself. "What are you doing here at this hour?" "Hey, I just simply looooooooove to swim!" "Whatever." She kicked him back into the water. <<Minutes Later>> The sun had set by now and it was very dark and hard to see the way. The waves were crashing much harder now. "Looks like a big storm tonight at the south end of Fushia!" the radio man said. "Aww crap, I better get back now." She stood up, but in the darkness, she couldn't see where the rocks leading back to the beach were. What was worse was that they were ten times slipperier than before and the water was rising fast. A huge wave knocked her into the sea and she desperately tried to swim back, for it would cost her life. Suddenly, a rip tide pulled her way back to the sea and she nearly lost hope. "Hey wait a minute," she thought. Aurora took out a poke ball and opened it. "Go, Cloyster!" "Cloyster." She held onto its shell and it tried to swim back. Even he couldn't make it. "The only thing we can do now," she said, "is to see where the current will take us." She crawled inside Cloyster's shell and he closed it tight. Inside the shell, no water leaked through, but they knew that they were starting to sink. Hours later, the water was still carrying them and the storm ragged on. "Cl..mmgmbbn...r.." Cloyster was being squished by Aurora taking up all the space. "We're doomed...."
