(part 3) Date: Wednesday, November 24, 1999 11:02 PM [NS: I know it was probably a typo, but Bon is supposed to have Spearow and Clyde has Tentacool. Ah, well. The show must go on!] Smasher smirked at Ema. This girl was more extreme than he had imagined before. Probably comes with the territory, being written by JoE. This little adventure may be more thrilling than this thrill-seeking trainer had considered. Smasher took off his back pack and stuffed his Marowak helmet and skateboard inside. He put the back pack on over his chest and put the Rocket suit on over it. To the untrained eye, he would look merely overweight. After a bit of coaxing, Smasher convinced Shuriken and Cliff to hide in his shirt. [NS: they don't do Pokeballs, remember?] Ema and Smasher stepped out of the closet dressed as Rockets. Ema's costume was not unlike that of Jesse of Team Rocket's. In their haste to not get caught, they had failed to check to see if the coast was clear. A lone Rocket saw them emerge and approached them. "Hey! You there!" said the Rocket. "What were you doing in there?" "We... uh..." began Ema. "What do you think we were doing in there?" Smasher asked back. He leaned over and put an arm around Ema and gave the Rocket a sly look. The Rocket looked at the two of them, glanced at the closet, and then looked back them. He thought for a moment, trying to put two and two together. He looked at them again, raised an eyebrow, and smirked. "Ah, you crazy kids," laughed the Rocket. "You two make a great couple. I can tell. Hey, man, high-five!" The Rocket and Smasher slapped hands. The Rocket slipped him something as he walked off behind them. "You two take care now." Ema turned to Smasher. "What'd he give you?" she asked. "Uh... nothing," Smasher answered, moving his arm off Ema's shoulders and the item in question into his pocket. "Okay, now what?" "Um...." began Ema. "You do have a plan, don't you?" asked Smasher. To be continued...
