Date: Sunday, May 30, 1999 9:10 PM Despite the restriction, Natasha called Charmander out to help get her shoes on. The nurse said she should avoid using her left hand for at least a week. Thank Goddish Scyther had gotten that hand... She returned Charmander and headed down the hall, with Scyther flying next to her. Just before she reached the exit, a man in uniform stopped her. "Security. Where did you get that Pokémon?" Natasha's jaw dropped. What in the heck?! "I caught him in the Safari Zone..." "Yeah, sure. Can I see his Pokéball?" She started looking through her backpack. Oh, shoot. "I'm afraid I lost it..." The security officer laughed. "Look, lady, people don't just 'lose' Pokéballs! I'm afraid I'll have to take you down to the office, and confiscate that Scyther." /~Master?! Scyther no leave you!~\ "Sir, I was attacked at the Pokécenter! It was lucky I had him out, because Scyther saved me!" She didn't dare tell him what really happened. "I didn't have time to get his Pokéball. I barely got out alive!" "Yeah, sure, that's what they all say. Now come on quietly, or I'll charge you with arguing with an officer..." "But...but..." Natasha looked towards the exit. No, she couldn't just make a break for it. Then, she noticed...Tenchi?! What the heck was he doing out there? "A friend of mine is out there! He saw me catch Scyther! If I could just go talk to him..." "C'mon, lady." Scyther screeched as the security officer clicked handcuffs onto Natasha. He started to attack him, but the Rent-A-Cop quickly sprayed him with Max Repel. As Scyther flew in circles, trying to get away from the stuff, another officer grabbed him. "You have the right to remain silent...Anything you say--" Natasha frowned. "I choose to waive that right. TENCHI?! WAKE UP!" --Natasha V.
