After feeding himself and his pokemon, he headed inside his tent and try to get his some sleep when his megadex started to beep and woke him up. "...I didn't take the money out of purse, Mom, somebody put this in my hand...huh." "Incoming message from Prof. Oak" "Hold on, let me get Buzz(Electrode) to use 'Flash' for some light." "Go Buzz,"as CJ shot the pokeball up in the air. Mistakely, CJ had grabbed Bubba's(Bulbasaur) pokeball, so as soon he materialized, he fell hard on his trainer Ten minutes later, when CJ regained consciousness, he finally called the right pokemon (but moved out way to be on the safe side). "What's up?" "Are you in Lavender Town yet?" "No. Why are you calling me this late?" "I can't sleep tonight. I so excited about the sighting of the Articuno, this could be the greatest capture of your life."explained Prof. Oak. "So I can't sleep since you can't sleep. I talk to you later." "But I..." "Close link and block any more calls until 7:00." Two hours later, as he sleeping in peacefully, he awaked by the smell of fire. "No Mom, I didn't stick your shoes in the microwave on purpose, I tripped and it flew into... what is that smell...fire!!!" CJ ran the tent's entrance, book bag in hand. "Go Squirtle!!!" "Use 'Water Gun' to put out the flames." Even though Squirtle stopped the flames, over half the tent was already destroyed. "You tried you best to stop it, Squirtle. Squirtle Return." CJ ran to where he saw both flames and thunder shoot out of control. "I should have known,"stated CJ to himself as he stared the Charizard and Jolteon doing battle,"what kind of idiots do battle at 12:30 at night. I'll put a stop to it. Go Sleepy." "Hit them with Hypnosis,"whispered CJ into his Sleepy's ear. Sleepy simply nodded walked over to where the battle was taking place. "Get your pokemon out of here. We're in the middle or a pokemon battle,"shouted one of the trainers seconds before Sleepy knocked both trainers become unconscious. "You know I was talking about the pokemon right,"said CJ with a smile. "Drow." "Fine, next time I'll be clearer. Let's get some sleep somewhere." TBC???
