From: Pipian <pipian@mindspring.com> Subject: [PW!] In the Safari Zone A.K.A. Pipian Contemplates his Own Thoughts Date: Monday, June 07, 1999 4:29 PM "I think we should go back to Fuschia," said Tiki. "Nonsense," the others said. "Why should we waste our money just to see you catch a Pidgeot and then leave? Let's at least catch one new Pokémon each." "OK," said Tiki as he relented. They walked further into the Safari Zone until John saw two Nidorans, one male, one female. "Ooh! A male Nidoran would definately be a good addition to my Pokémon collection! Orion? You want to catch the female Nidoran?" asked John. They both threw bait to occupy both Nidoran. Then, they threw two Safari Balls at them. They wiggled as the light was red, but then relaxed as they light turned off. They both walked over and got their new pokémon. "Can we go back now?" asked Tiki "NOT YET! Pipian has to get a pokémon, and then we'll go back, Tiki!" said Orion. Just then, Pipian spoted something that looked like an egg in the distance. He creeped closer and saw that it was a Chansey! Those were hard to find in the Safari Zone. He threw some bait at it. It looked at it, perplexed, and began to eat it, abeit slowly. It never noticed that it was caught in a Safari Ball. "Yes! I caught a Chansey!" exclaimed Pipian. "Good! Can we go now?" asked Tiki. "Sure! In just a moment," said Pipian as he released his new Chansey. "I'll call him Lucky!" "Chaaaan Seeey!" it said in agreement. He tried to bring it back to it's ball, but it refused, whapping the ball back to Pipian. "OK, I guess you can stay out of your ball!" "Chansey!" Pipian walked back to the group and the group began to walk back to Fuschia. Pipian was wondering if Tiki was psychic, which seemed highly likely if he could send a psychic ball at them. <Are you psychic, Tiki?> Pipian asked Tiki using telepathy. He knew of his psychic powers ever since he was a baby... No, he was never a baby in this world! His mind reeled, remembering for the first time since it was 'patched up,' that he had a different history. At the same time, he remembered what the strange voice, that called himself Mew said in one of his odd dreams he had every so often: "You are not of this world... I know that... You are here... for a reason... You... are here to fight a menace... the menace." He had asked who the menace was and the voice had answered: "You will see eventually... he is the cat's second sound..." A feeling tugged him and seemed to tell him to go to the Seafoam Islands. His mind was then filled with a picture of a Pikachu, and a silhouette that seemed to radiate evil. Then, another feeling tugged him to talk to Tiki and possibly bring him along. He wasn't sure. Orion would follow where ever Pipian went. He telepathized again. <Tiki, are you psychic?> A little twist in the story... Pipian
