From: Roberto Perez-Vila <RobfromVoid@prodigy.net> Subject: [PW!] Prepare For Trouble, and Make It Doubleslap! Date: Thursday, June 10, 1999 5:10 PM "I risked going to jail to save your life." Minax states this fact in a tone of voice that indicates disbelief. She is staring straight into her new Poliwhirl's forlorn eyes. The strange Pokemon can't seem to stop rubbing his hands over his spiral, which has a large, white, X-shaped bandage on it, probably put there by a Chansey to stop the blood. Minax continues to crouch in front of her Poliwhirl, in the open field south of Cerulean City. She looks around and shakes her head, "I killed a girl's Butterfree right here just a few days ago... and I save you... just like that. Why? I should've kicked you while you were down... Why...the hell... did I save you?!" She clenches her fists and stares at the Poliwhirl. As if to respond, the Poliwhirl reaches forward and Doubleslaps Minax's tightly packed breasts! Instinctively, Minax swings her right fist out at the Pokemon! The punch sends Poliwhirl flying back a few feet, toppling over in pain. Minax stands up and pulls out her pistol in a split second, "How DARE you?! If you do that again, I'll kill you, you bastard!" It is in that instant that she remembers why she felt attracted to this Pokemon in the first place. He had spunk. He had the nerve to come out of his home, the river, when Minax poisoned it, and fight back. This creature wasn't evil, but he was brave... and very stupid. Good qualities for a loyal Pokemon. Minax puts away her pistol and runs over to her Pokemon, "I'm sorry I hit you, Poliwhirl... but I'm your trainer. You don't hit your trainer, got it?" Poliwhirl manages to nod in his state of pain, lying on the grass, and reaches out one of his large white hands, offering a handshake. Minax crouches down once again to shake his hand, but instead gets Doubleslapped in the knee! Poliwhirl manages to stand up and cries out of an unknown orifice, "Poliwhirl! Poli!" He shakes a fist in defiance! "You're going to end up dead." Minax rubs her sore knee and stands up straight again, "If you keep this behavior up, I'm sure that I'm going to end up killing you. I've killed Pokemon before, and you're not any different from the rest." Poliwhirl indignantly turns away from Minax, and continues to fuss over his bandaged swirl. "You owe me." Minax narrows her eyes, even though her Pokemon isn't looking, "I ran to the Cerulean City Pokemon Center as fast as I could. I found a little girl to take you inside. I even waited outside, risking that a police officer might see me, for the girl to return. I expect you to behave with the utmost respect. Join me or die. Can you do any less?" "Poli..." The Water Pokemon stands still for a moment. He considers running away, but gradually turns around to face Minax. Her silver pistol is in her hand, ready to shoot him if he refuses to be her Pokemon. "...whirl." Poliwhirl waddles over towards Minax and hugs her thighs together, "Poliwhirl! Poli!" "That's better." Minax shoves her pistol back into holster. While so close to Minax, Poliwhirl takes the opportunity to Doubleslap Minax's firm butt! "You're pushing it, Poliwhirl." She swiftly lifts up her knee and kicks Poliwhirl in the groin with the tip of her black boot. The Water Pokemon topples over, holding the area below his swirl and rolling around in pain. Minax smiles while she watches her new Pokemon squirm, "That'll teach you." She grabs the second Pokeball on her belt and extends her arm towards the Poliwhirl writhing in pain. He is sucked in, bandage and all. -Minax
