From: Agent 0007 <agent0007@gradzone.com> Subject: [PW!] [CANYON] New Friends and Enemies(Part 1) Date: Thursday, May 20, 1999 4:27 PM Chaoticllama, Andrew, and Frisky continued on patrolling the areas looking for unwanted Rockets. "Hmm." the cowboy said, "If we're still gonna go looking for thieves, we might as well split up." "Sounds ok." Andrew and Frisky agreed. "We'll go over on the east side of the canyon, and you head to the west side. Chaoticllama nodded, and they split up for now. "Perrs! I hope we find a fossil or two." Frisky complained. Andrew and Frisky had looked a couple of places but mostly kept and eye out for fossil thieves. "Me too." Andrew replied. Frisky's tail stood up. "Mew! There's two people taking a bag! Possibly fossils too!" "Good work Frisk." Andrew said, "Let's trace them just in case." Andrew safely scaled up around a small mountain and followed them. "Heh, we sure made a good haul of fossils, huh Bill?" one Rocket laughed. "Sure did!" Now Andrew and Frisky were sure they had caught the people they were looking for. They jumped out. "Hold it right there thieves!" Andrew shouted, "You two are under arrest!" The two were shocked. "HUH? What are you talking about?" one of them said, puzzled. "We aren't thieves, we are just here to dig fossils!" Andrew felt embarrassed. "But-but, I saw you two take that bag of fossils from that guy!" Frisky accused. "That's because he is our brother." one said, "Us three are brothers huntin for fossils." they said. "We are terribly sorry. It won't happen again." Andrew apologized. Andrew slowly walked with his head down, Frisky too. "We sure made fools of ourselves this time." Andrew said shamely. Frisky's ears perked up. "Meow!" Frisky said in excitement, "I can hear those two very good, they are talking about Team Rocket!" Frisky told Andrew what she heard. "Umm. One guy said, 'Team Rocket will surely promote us with all these fossils!' and the other said, 'You bet!'" Andrew had an idea.. The two thieves walked quietly but quickly hoping not to be noticed. Then all of the sudden the two were ambushed by a Water Gun attack. "Bshwa!" one said getting soaked. "What the--" "Good work Wartortle!" Andrew praised. "We know you are rockets so drop the fossils and put your hands up!" "Dang Buff, they caught us!" the Rocket said. "Well....." "Out from the skies!" "Into your house!" "Team Rocket will steal your pokemon--" "As quick as a mouse!" "Buffalo!" "Bill!" "Team Rocket blast of faster then sirens sounded!" "Surrender now, or fight and be astounded!" After Buffalo and Bill said there motto casually. Bill took out a PokeBall. "You aren't getting us without a pokemon match! Tangela go!!!!!!!!!!!! "Sounds good to me," Andrew said, "Get 'em Wartortle!" "WAR!" Wartortle started off with another Water Gun. It blasted Tangela and the grass pokemon dropped to the ground. "Tangy, constrict!" Bill commanded. Tangela used it's many "vines" and seized the Wartortle. "Wartortle, Bite!" As Tangela squeezed Wartortle, the turtle started biting like mad. "Tang!!!" Tangela let go of his opponent and withdrew back a little. "Tackle it Wartortle!" Wartortle got a running start and put all it's body weight into it. "Tang! Tangela!" Tangela ran like a coward and back into it's PokeBall. frisky jumped up and snatched the bag of fossils from Buffalo's hand when he was distracted. "Hey? Wha? We better get out of here, Bill" "Agreed, 'til next time you idiots!" They both ran as fast as they could. "Good work, Wartortle, return." The light beam shined at Wartortle and it withdrew into the PokeBall. "At least we got the fossils back! Frisky purred. "Yup, say, there's a name on the bag!" Andrew and Frisky searched for at least 5 minutes until they had found the person. "Yes, I'm Timothy." the person said. "Here are all your fossils!" Andrew said, smiling. "Oh wow! Thanks!" The boy grabbed his bag. "You sure got bunch there, kid. Be careful next time ok?" Andrew said. "Sure! Oh, my mom always told me to share. Here is your reward." Tim handed Andrew some amber. "Hope you are able to resurrect a good pokemon out of it!" Tim said. "OK, thanks Tim! Well I gotta go now, keep up the good search!" Andrew waved and headed to a grassy field beside the canyon. --- TBC
