From: Hedgehogey <hedgehogey@aol.comidiocy> Subject: [PW] Meeting the tyrant part 1: The road to the power plant Date: Sunday, September 19, 1999 10:30 PM Darwin walked out of the cerulean city gym with a shiny new cascade badge pinned to his black, spiky fur. The normally busy streets of cerulean were deserted and Darwin could hear police sirens in the background. He sniffed the air and the acrid scent of burnt flesh and rubber assaulted his nose. The scent came from downwind, at the cerulean city hotel, which was a blazing inferno. The sounds of police sirens also came from the hotel, harshly blasting their authority into the air. Darwin had learned to fear the police when he was a cub on the streets of Celadon. If a cop caught you they would most likely send you to the place where a chansey would make you go to sleep. Darwin decided that staying in cerulean city wasn’t a good idea. Somehow or other La Resistance would get blamed for the attack and humans looking for someone to blame are almost as dangerous as the police. After a half an hour of walking he found himself at the exit to route 4. The route diverged in two directions: The, straight western path, well worn by the shoes of thousands of young pokemon trainers on their foolish journeys to become "masters", led to vermilion. The winding northerly path was partially blocked by overgrown vegetation and led into the darkness of the forest. Darwin naturally chose the northern path. As a pokemon he would be much more alert to danger than a human. Eevees were prey to many pokemon. Millions of years of evolution had built in many solutions to that problem. The eevees long ears and heightened sense of smell serve to warn it of predators. Also, the eevees unstable genetic code made it extremely adaptable. A coat of fur that could be heavy or light depending on the circumstances and an omnivorous diet made eevees able to exist in virtually any environment. Forests, marshlands, deserts, jungles, tundra, even cities, all these environments hosted an eevee population somewhere. The only environments no eevees could not live in were the arctic and suburban wastelands. None of these things mattered to Darwin as he trotted briskly along the path to the power plant. The only thing that mattered to him at that moment was convincing Zapdos to ally with La Resistance. Darwin thought of how his eloquently worded arguments would sway Zapdos into believing the rightness of the resistance cause. He thought of how the troops that zapdos provided would topple the oppressive team rocket and pokemon league. He thought of he would be a resistance hero. He though of how he had just absentmindedly stepped into the river that led to the power plant. He thought about how very fast the current was taking him. He thought about how he would be dashed to pieces on the rocks ahead…… TBC Hedge Man is quite insane.
