Steve smiled as he watched the >two, and in the distance the song "Everybody Hurts" began to play on the >Jukebox. > "You know, I should really start preparing more for this Doomsday Saga," said Mewtwo. "Explain to me how this thing will work out," said Steve. "I'll do better than that," said Mewtwo as he got and stage, "I'll sing it for you. Someone, get on the piano and play the tune to 'American Pie." "Good luck, Mewtwo!" Karen shouted as the lights dimmed. "A long long time ago, Was an author who made... A character that was omnipotent… The guy was craving attention… Screwed things up, just for fun… But time to consider others wasn't spent… He had made a Doomsday Project… The point of which, it had no logic… He wanted to go and save the day… The time continuum was for him to play… He'd make a planet full of Mews… The fate of billions, was for him to choose.. But he assured us he wouldn't lose… That's why, some want Icy fried… So my, my, this IcyPikachu guy… Is it legal, for his ego, To be such a large size? He wants to be the hero, well is that a surprise? Crying 'why don't you guys just reply?' 'Why don't you guys just reply?' Did you know this psychic rat, Is a henchman for an omni cat… But he can't control time travel right now… Soon he'll put at all the stops, He'll kill each Mew and watch 'em drop, Hoping that the crowd will go "wow!" Well, I KNOW he makes a psychic shield, And this AINT an even playin' field, He goes to tell his tales, And his power is off the scales! This guy will put us in a blight, Because of the epic tale he'll write, And he'll make everyone go and fight, That's why, some want Icy fried. We started singin'... My, my, this IcyPikachu guy… Is it legal, for his ego, To be such a large size? He wants to be the hero, well is that a surprise? Crying 'why don't you guys just reply?' 'Why don't you guys just reply?'" The crowd started applauding wildly. Suddenly, someone read brought in a newspaper. Apparently, the Death Star that was starting to freak everyone someone crossed into a separate continuity. Everyone was relieved. Suddenly, Mark walked in. "Hello Steve, hello Karen," Mark greeted. "Who's the omnipotent cat?" "This is Mewtwo," Karen replied. "Fascinating," Mark remarked, "you ever think about coming to Silph Co. for some tests?" Mewtwo glared at him. "He doesn't do well with labs," said Steve. "Ah," Mark said to himself. "Hey Steve, I've been working on a new TM for Waterfall. There's this group that calls themselves the Clan that's trying to have a monopoly on it, so Silph is going to move in on their territory. Would you like to test it out?" "Maybe later," Steve replied as he pocketed the TM. "You know, I've been wondering if you could do me a favor. Apparently, a month or so ago I had some notes I was going to take to Silph Co. But unfortunately, those notes were stolen from me by a man named Gil Bates. And his Alakazam took away my memory." "Wait, now I remember why you're name sounds familiar!" said Mark. "So can you help me out?" Steve asked. "Sorry, but all the files involving your works are classified," Mark explained. "Classified?" Steve asked. "But they were my files." "Correct," said Mark, "but since you decided not to work for Silph Co. anymore, they can't give you access to them. Corporate Espionage type of thing. If you want, you could apply for a job at Silph Co. and you'd probably be able to access those files then." "But how am I supposed to apply to Silph if I don't have my data?" Steve asked. "Well, then, you're screwed aren't you?" Mark asked. "It's like a Catch-22, Steve," Karen remarked. "You can't get a job until you have your files, and you can't have your files until you get a job." "Perhaps you could get your files from another source?" Mark suggested. "Like where?" Steve asked. "Well, Gil Bates is currently the head of Pokesoft," Mark explained. "Really?" Steve asked. "NOW I know why I dislike that company. I wonder how hard it would be to break into..." "Break in?" Mark asked. "I wasn't expecting to break into Pokesoft." "Would you prefer we break into Silph Co.?" Steve asked. Mark shook his head. "You should come with us," Steve said, "we could use a tech guy." "I don't think so, Steve," Mark said as he shook his head. Suddenly, a man with a gun came running into the room and pointed it at Mewtwo. "FREEZE!!!" he yelled. "I'm a member of T.A.C. and I'm here to apprehend Mewtwo so he can be in an upcoming story of mine." "You can't just keep him for yourself," Steve commented. "Can and will," he replied. "Why don't you just write a story that doesn't involve Mewtwo?" Karen asked. "We forgot how," the member of T.A.C. admitted. "Oh," Karen said, a little disappointed. "Look, just lay off the guy!" Steve yelled. "He's had a long day." "I wish I could," said the T.A.C. member, "but what you don't realize is that Mewtwo's EVIL." "Really?" Steve asked. "I'm not surprised. If people chased after me all day forcing me to be in their stories, I'd be a little ticked off too. Just a tad. You can't blame a monster for doing bad things when you are the one provoking him." "Hey, we didn't make him the way he is!" the T.A.C. member insisted. "Really?" Steve asked. "Then how did he get that way? Was he born evil? And if so, is he anymore to blame than he would be if he were born blind? And how would he have gotten that way after being cloned from a non-evil Mew? The other answer is that society made him the way he is. Drove him to do the things he does. And again, how can we blame him when all his actions are the results of the hardships of society. You cannot blame Mewtwo for the destruction he does. If you do wish to blame someone, look into a mirror." "Thank you, Steve," Mewtwo said. "Your welcome, Mewtwo," Steve responded. "Hey, would you mind teleporting us to Pokesoft?" "Not at all," the omnipotent cat responded. Then he glanced over at Mark. "Are you coming?" "Well, I'm not sure..." he began to answer. "I understand, Mark," Steve replied. "We'll just leave you here with the psycho holding a gun. I'm sure you two will have lots of interesting things to talk about." With that, Mark took a step closer to Mewtwo and they all were off. TBC -Spawn "Wise Pokemon trainers never get involved in a cat fight" -Brock To reply, remove "puters" from the e-mail address.
