From: Its Dun Dun Dun Raven <aznfrenzy@aol.comingtoyou> Subject: [PW!]Maria? Escaping? Date: Friday, October 22, 1999 11:22 PM Trapped. Darkness. Escape. Three words stuck inside Maria's head like the way she was stuck inside the giant pokeball. Days? Weeks? Months? How long has Maria been rolling along was unknown. Maria lost track of time long time ago. She was trapped......a feeling she had been feeling these years alot. And then there was her captor. James. Former Rocket. Now ATR. He must be having the time of his life trapping someone he despised. For all she cared, James was rolling her around and around in circles or thats what it seems like. The rolling continued. _____ (boring part.....8D....) "Raven....I finally got it...." Drew said. "What?" Raven asked. "Before I left on vacation. I was working on this special modified pokeball. The blueprints were they and we just got started. I guess they finished it after I left or something." Drew said. "What is it??" Fox asked. "Its a prototype pokeball that has one too many bugs in it from the report I got. Anyway it adapts to a pokemon that its being targetting at. The pokeball rejusts itself to fit and capture the pokemon perfectly." Drew continued. "I remembered that.....It was during a raid on Team Rocket.....I read the report." Gohan continued. "It was around the time when we destroyed the Rocket activity in Grandpa Canyon.." "How do you know???" Saber asked. "Tank made me read the reports..ba dum dum" Gohan grunted. "Anyway...some ATRS found a blueprint that was stolen by Team Rocket from Silph Co. Masterball or whatever" Gohan said. "Ok then. Well since we don't have the materials and resources of TR or Silph Co. We made a modified version of it." Drew finished. "And I have asked Luicy Lu, top scientist in ATR, to give me one of the prototypes." "Wow...I didn't understand one part of that. Your usually quiet too..." Raven said. "And HERE IT IS!!!" Drew pulled out a rather large pokeball with some complex machinery on and around the button. Drew began to model with the pokeball and walked back and forth....model music starts to play in the background...and Drew's hair flies up as he walks around in planted steps. "....." The other ATRs began to edge away from Drew. "So what are we going to do with this?? We are all still angry from Sirius's betrayal...." Dai said. "OH forget about him...He has gone insane. I will chase him later....Right now we have more important things to do.....Its been one week. We have to get going to Old Man Andrew's. James is coming here with so very important cargo. After he gets here we head to Andrew's. " ____ Slasher licked his paws and glanced at James as he rolled the pokeball toward the entrance. Slasher had waited for an opportunity to free Maria and followed closely behind all the time. James grinned evilly as he entered Fushcia. "Looks like we are here Maria." James smacked the pokeball a little...There was a muffled growl from inside. ___ Later..... 6 ATRs glanced at a "suicidal maniac"-looking guy as he entered the Pokecenter with a very huge pokeball. The guy had some trouble geting the pokeball into the room...Nurse Joy gave a curious glare and then got back to her work.. "James......I see you have done more work than all of us combined." "WHat have you been doing these days? you have been getting fat." "Just bumming...oh yeah Sirius left...blah blah blah..stuff like that" "I see Lets go outside." Raven and the rest helped James pushed the pokeball outside. "Whose inside?" "Maria.." Raven winced ~~~~~~~~ Pokemon Island...I remembered it always....big ATR vs TR battle. Maria had a gun aimed at Simyn.... --Raven saw Maria began to aim at Simon and without even thinking of the consquences, pushed Simon out of the way. The Wigglytuff looked almost cheated of its intended target. Raven felt something crashed right into his torso. Raven was blasted off his feet and landed a distance away from before. Raven's body was full of pain but it was quick. Maria was saddened and happy at the results at the same time. "Oh well, one down anyways.." -- Not one of my best days. ~~~~~~~~ "Release her." Raven grumbled.... _________ Maria felt people talking. A familiar voice. "Release her" "Ok...." Maria felt the pokeball being opened and she popped out headfirst. Maria was blinded for a while due to the fact of not seeing any light for a long time. Maria glanced around....ATRs all of them...some familiar...some strangers. Maria acted fast and tried to run away scratching and scrambling in all directions. The ATRs were taken back. The desperation quickly surprised them. Maria tripped one down and dodged another who tried to tackle her. The ATR sailed headfirst into another ATR with a sickening thud. Then the adrenaline stopped. Maria felt the crampiness of being in the pokeball so long. Pain shot through all over her....Maria fell down to her knees. ____ "Shit...Get her...." James said. Dai made a move but was taken down quick. Fox tried to tackle her down but hit Gohan instead. The Rocket fell down as if in pain. Saber pulled out his pen and quickly blocked her escape... Raven and James also made a circle around Maria. "Trying to get away???" James sensed the desperation in Maria. "If she had full strength and some backup we would be whooped." James thought. A flash from above interrupted James thinking..A Meowth suddenly had appeared out of nowhere and began to slash at James's face. "Get it off!! Get it off!!!" ___ "SLASHER!!!!!!!" Maria shouted. Slasher growled in response. Seeing Maria fallen, Slasher had decided it was time to strike. Raven made a move to help James but was tripped by Maria. Saber got Slasher off of James's face. Saber was about to strike with his trademark pen when Slasher knocked the pen off of his fingers. Everybody had forgotten Drew. Drew looked at Slasher and taking a risk threw the prototype pokeball at the Meowth. Maria glanced at the abnormal pokeball with some machinery and knew it was something bad. Maria dived and covered Slasher hugging him. The pokeball hit Maria and made a wierd voice. A blue light surrounded Maria but nothing happened. Then a bright green light shined at Maria. There was a scream and an explosion. ___ The ATRS gathered around and waited till the smoke cleared. Slasher was on the ground puzzled. Maria was gone. In her place was a pokeball. TBC.... Sorry Maria If I messed up. Cut out parts you don't want. I made a mistake about writing this post too long. _____ The Critics love ATR TakoTanku: *chants* ATR! ATR! SimynLocke: ATR rules!
