From: Simon Locke <atr4llfe@aol.comYuriBabe> Subject: [PW!] Moon Rockets Baby! Yea!!!! Date: Sunday, October 03, 1999 12:17 PM The Hummer Limo conquered the terrain, making the ride over the Mt. Moon earth feel as if they were in a Lear jet. "Dayum, I could definitely get used to this." Simon Locke said. "Could you at least for once, maintain a mature and elite posture in front of these men? They expect me to be their leader, powerful and ruthless." Laura told Simon. "Yes yes, I got it Mama, I'm a good actor, so this will be easy. Don't worry, I have everything under control." "Ok, I'll be watching." "Gotcha." The vehicle pulled up to two iron gates, guarded by two large men in trench coats, obviously packing concealed advanced weaponry. The guard exchanged a few brief words with Richter in the driver's seat, and then set the mechanism to open the gates. Up ahead bright lights lighted the cave lethally, revealing a pokemon graveyard that made Simon's heart ache. "Mother fudjers…." Richter drove the hummer as fast as he could, trying to cut the death scene short, but the cave seemed to last forever. Simon glanced over to Spike, who was looking out the other window. The huge monster appeared weak at that moment, a tear of sadness yet anger condensed from its eye. The dying/dead pokemon laid heavy on Simon and Spikes conscious. Up ahead leaning on the cave wall was the body of a sandshrew, it was brown with dehydration. Simon couldn't take it anymore, couldn't bare to look at his friend in such a state. He put his head down, and heard Laura's voice. "Don't worry…" A loud unbuckling occurred, and a latch broke. Simon looked up, to see Spike hanging out the door, with one set of talons hooked onto the seat. When Spike finally came back up, another body was wrapped around the other set of talons. "Rewwww…." It barely cried. Simon watched in awe, as Spike cradled the baby Sandshrew in its arms. Already, the warmth of Spikes body gave hope to the little hedgehog, it laid comfortingly in Spikes arms. All the macho'ness of the two beings were gone, as Spike took it upon himself to help another in need. "Simon, there's a potion in the first aid kit under your seat." Laura said. "Oh… ok." Simon reached down, pulled out a brief case, and withdrew a potion. Instead of spraying the sandshrew himself, he gave the potion to Spike. Without looking up, Spike administered the potion to the baby, and let it rest for a while. "Ok." Richter said, "Here we go." Simon stepped out of the Hummer, revealing his womanly body. A couple of TR Members turned their head to catch a glimpse, but because of Laura's reputation they dared not whistle or hoot. "Yea baby." Simon said to himself with a smile. Next climbed out a distraught but greatly angered Sandslash. Curled comfortably in the back seat of the Hummer Limo was the sandshrew, snoozing peacefully. Some of the yellow had already started to come back. Out from Laura's coat Simon pulled out an ultra ball. Releasing the button, an explosion of energy flew out. "CHARRRRRR BOK!!!!!" The humongo Arbok stretched its coils, then poised loyally next to Laura's body. "Greetings Laura and Coshari. I see you have a new Pokemon." Said Jose, the Rocket in charge. "That I do." Simon said coolly, "Report?" "Nothing yet Mam, but when future happenings occur, you'll be the first to know." "Very well, return to your duties." "And you, Mam?" "That's not your concern." Simon said. Jose walked away, a little shaken and intimidated. Simon laughed to himself, and took a look around him. Spike had climbed back into the Hummer to check on the resting Sandshrew. "Yo Spike, you mind staying in here while me and Coshari have a look around?" Spike nodded agreeingly, and continued to tend to the baby. On Simon's belt, both pokeballs started to shake. "Ok, you guys come out too." The energy lighted up the interior of the Limo, and Aqua and Mercury emerged. "But you guys have to stay as well." "V'ap!" "Don't 'D'oh' at me!" Simon laughed and slammed the door. "Take care of'em, will you Richter?" _____________ The mission report Giovanni had sent to Laura said something to the extent of a saboteur infiltrating the TR base in Mt. Moon. That the infiltrator crashed one of the Manouevres vehicles into the side of the mountain, and had been sneaking around collecting information as a Rocket themselves. Laura's Team Rocket objective was to find that man, using her psychic powers (woo hoo) and arrest him and make him talk about ATR. But Simon and Laura's real objective was to meet up with Steak, the ATR agent Team Rocket had been looking for. "Steak?" Laura asked. "Where do you dig up these people?" "Steak's the best there is, I'm sure he located the stolen TMs by now." "We'll see." Laura said. "Don't worry, I'm sure Steak is somewhere around here posing as a Rocket." From farther down the cave, some lighting blasts and mild earthquakes occurred. A soft singing fairy voice, and more yelling. "Who are you! What's your clearance pass!" A TR yelled. About 5 TR had pokemon ready and some people cornered. The group of people didn't look frightened at all, but Simon could see them getting ready for battles themselves. TBC! (C'mon! Who wants to be that group of people? I know people want interaction! Cat'gonk? Dryerrick? Anybody?)
