From: Crimsonjacket <lgayman@ix.netcom.com> Subject: [PW!] Quick Escape! Date: Friday, June 18, 1999 10:52 PM Back to where we last left Chad and his pokemon ... It was late, and Chad felt that he had had enough clubbing for one night. But before he left, he had to finish talking to this one girl: a raven haired, Shinto priestess, who said she was part of a team of female soldiers, protecting Tokyo from alien attack. "So, then I said .." Chad was telling the girl. Suddenly, the bouncer that Chad tricked at the entrance to the club appeared. He was out of the trance and was generally angry (about as angry as you would be if you had a tear in your pants where your pocket was, and the skin underneath was covered with bite and pin marks). "Uh, hey, how's it going? Come here often? Where do you live?" said Chad nervously to the bouncer. Then he looked past the bouncer's shoulder in mock surprise. "Whoa, look! It's the secret field of wild Charmanders, Squirtles, and Bulbasaurs!" The bouncer turned to look towards the direction Chad was looking, and he saw nothing but a blank wall. The bouncer looked back at Chad, to see that he was gone. Chad had grabbed all his pokemon and jumped into his car before the bouncer had time to gather his thoughts. While Chad was turning the key to start up the car (which, for dramatic purposes, wouldn't start right away), the bouncer had appeared, and was currently in front of the car, giving him the evil eye. Chad then had an idea. He pressed a button on the car's console, and a device slid up from the center of it. It looked like something from H.G. Wells "The Time Machine". Chad pulled the lever on it before the bouncer had the chance to tear the car apart. The car disappeared with the same wheezing and groaning noise the TARDIS makes in Doctor Who. The car then rematerialized and Chad breathed a sigh of relief. "That was a close call!" he said to his pokemon. "I guess we'll never see him again." Chad looked forward, just in time to see the bouncer turn around. He had rematerialized the car right behind the bouncer, who was now more peeved than before. Chad pressed a few more buttons on the device, pulled the lever again, and the car disappeared. The car reappeared somewhere else. "Okay, now I think it is safe." He then heard a woman scream and a series of confused shouts. He looked out the window to see that he had rematerialized inside of the club. The bouncer and come back in when he heard the commotion, and started towards the car, with a fiery anger in his eyes and step. "Okay, forget this thing." he said as he pressed another button to deactivate and retract the device. Then he took Uri, rolled down his window, and placed him on the car's hood. "Hold on, dude!" he said to Uri. "Ala! Kazam!" said Uri in compliance. Chad then started the car up (which fortunately only took one turn of the key this time), and Chad drove the car towards the nearest wall. The crowd spread out of the way of the car as it sped towards the back wall. "Uri, Psybeam, now!" The Alakazam fired it Psybeam, which blew a hole into the wall. The explosion caused a white sheet to fall onto Uri, which covered him like a shroud. "Uri, get us out of here!" The car then drove out of the club through the hole, and started to levitate. It flew through the night air, with the full moon in the background. Uri, with his shroud on, looked like a familiar friendly alien from a certain movie, while the car could be perceived as a bike (yeah, it could you know!). In the background, familiar music from the aforementioned movie started playing. Chad was looking around the interior of the car for the source of the music. Two Clefairies were drinking water out of a lake when they saw this in the sky. The two looked at each in puzzlement, then looked at the water funny. Finally they decided not to go to this water hole again. Chad and his Sandslash were sharing a bag of Reeses Pieces with each other, while Pikachu was covering his eyes while saying "Pika pikachu pii!!!" <Tell me when this is over!!!> Uri finally landed in the middle of the Viridian Forest (just in time to see an alien spaceship fly away, and a group of sad children, crying because their alien friend was leaving, looking up after it). Chad drove until he found a road safe enough to drive down, and he turned on the radio. The song "Where Do You Go?" was playing, and they proceeded to bop their heads to the music again.
