From: Mushboom <garrett.green@home.com> Subject: [PW!] Confrontation Date: Monday, August 23, 1999 10:37 PM Chosu slowed to walk and then stopped completely. He pulled Rakurai off his shoulders and onto the ground, the Electabuzz grunted and sat on the curb. Chosu was slightly bent over at the waist, leaning on his knees and sweating profusely. After sprinting all the way to Lavender from Saffron just to meet one kid who beat up a Drowzee he had finally lost him in the suburbs of Lavender Town. He took deep breaths and wiped the perspiration of his forehead with the back of his hand. He pondered the reasons why he ran all this way as he sat next to Rakurai on the curb. The main reason was he wanted to meet the guy but why didn't he just walk up to him and say "Hi". Chosu scratched his head but shrugged it off, he didn't have much before or after thought about his actions. He always acted on instincts, that's why alot of his friends back in Saffron called him 'Impulse'. He was almost pure, living Id of the Freudian Archetypes. Chosu was about to get up when he felt a tap on his shoulders, he craned his neck to look behind him to see the boy who he had been following standing above him. "Um...Hello." "Hi, I have a question." Chosu gulped slightly as he stood up and faced the other boy. "Shoot," Chosu replied. "Why were you following me all the way from Saffron?" the boy in the backwards cap said calmly. "Well frankly," Chosu shrugged, "I'm not quite sure. First I wanted to meet you cause you seemed like a great fighter. I saw you beat up that Drowzee, and just got the idea in my head that I wanted to meet you. And once I get an idea in my head it pretty much snowballs from there." "I see well," he stuck out a hand, "I'm Phannon Farome, and you are?" Chosu shook his hand firmly, "Chosu Zira, Cho for short and some of my friends call me Impulse. It was a nickname I picked up for acting on instinct all the time." For the first time since he caught site of Phannon he actually sized him up. He was maybe an inch or two taller than he was, wore average clothes and they were about the same age from what Chosu could tell. He felt a tug at his pant leg, Chosu looked down to see Rakurai, "Oh and this is Rakurai my Electabuzz." "Elblbl!" Rakurai greeted the new face. "Well Chosu, what better way to kick off a friendship with a fight," Phannon suggested. "A fight? Well okay," Chosu took on his fighting stance and shuffled his feet like a boxer. Phannon laughed at this. "What's so funny?" "I meant a Pokemon fight." "Ohhhh," Chosu nodded comprehensively, "let's do it, Rakurai." The Electabuzz pounded his chest and hollered, ready to fight. "Okay, go Spank!" Phannon tossed a pokeball onto the road, a Mankey energized and shrieked wildly. "Mankey Mankey!" "Rakurai! Double Team!" "Elblblblbl!" Rakurai began flashing in and out of reality until he split into two exact clones of himself. Mankey looked at the two Electabuzz and somewhat freaked out. He stared down one of the pair and charged at it, with a look of fury in its eyes. "Spank, Scratch attack now!" The fighting Pokemon swiped at its target but passed through it completely. "Man...key?" "Haha! Thunder Punch!" The other Rakurai's fist sizzled and sparked until it became a ball of yellow energy. The Electabuzz struck Spank the Mankey from behind releasing the lightning into its opponents body and knocking it flat on its face. "Maaaankey," Spank groaned, Rakurai stood above its victim with its fist smoking. A beam of red energy zipped out of a Pokeball in Phannon's hand and absorbed the Mankey. "It ain't over 'till it's over! Go-" "Whutz tha dealli-yo!" came a slurred voice from somewhere behind Phannon, halting him in mid-throw. "Oops, I forgot all about you, Playa." Phannon turned to see a Hypno strutting up to him. "He-he can talk?" Chosu managed to get out of his gaping mouth. "Yeah, if you wanna come with us to the Pokemon Tower I'll explain along the way." "Um, kay." Phannon motioned for Chosu to follow as he walked his bike down the street with the Hypno sitting on the seat and his Jolteon ever at his heels. Chosu shrugged and followed, who was followed by his faithful Rakurai.
