He was attempting to buy a Dratini from a rocket, when a kid had shown up, claiming that it was his. The Rocket had just shoved Max away, Max did not like being shoved, especialy by a rocket. The rocket would definitly pay for that. The kid was challenging the rocket. That was fine with Max, but if the kid couldn't finish the job, he would. Max stood back to see what would happen. --== Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ ==-- ---Share what you know. Learn what you don't.---
