From: Frosterfree <frosterfree@hotmail.com> Subject: [PW!] LoF: Part IX - The Air Element and the Fourth Clue (-o-) Date: Monday, November 15, 1999 1:00 PM --== THE LEGEND OF FROSTERPIE ==-- -=( PART IX )=- The Air Element and the Fourth Clue by Frosterfree, Tiki, Lewis, and Meeko "Who are these two goons?" Craven looked at Icy for an answer. "They're a couple of Team Rocket members, that are a big problem. They 're trying to steal the discs." Icy responded readying himself for a battle. "You may have three of the discs, but it won't be that way for long," Techor said smirking. "Alright guys let's get ready to rumble, Cyber, Hocus, GO!!!!" Icy yelled releasing the two pokéballs. "Marowak, Magneton, Lickitung, GO!!!" Lewis released the three pokéballs. "Okay Pidgeot do your stuff! You two Blastoise!" Nicky yelled. Kelly grabbed her Eevees up and held them too make sure they didn't run off. Meeko sent out Magneton and Ivysore. "Alright Jib-Jib do your stuff!" Craven yelled as the red Jigglypuff ran up to do battle. "Venomoth, Nidorina, Kabutops, Gyarados, GOOOO!!!!!" Livy yelled. "Muk, Nidorino, Omastar, ATTACK!!!!" The seven pokémon of the rockets, landed on top of the mountain, fortunately there was ample battling ground because the group was on a flat outstretch of the mountain about 30 yards below the actual peak. Icy was the first one to make a move, "Hocus, psybeam, into the center of them, Cyber conversion then sharpen, then tri-attack. The Porygon began its conversion and sharpening, as Hocus fired a large psybeam into the center of the rocket pokémon. The Venomoth and Gyarados flew into the sky, while the ancient pokémon jumped to one side, and the other three poison types jumped to the other side. In the end the pokémon had only been scattered. Cyber had finished glowing; it split into three parts, circled the Gyarados and fired a psybeam into it. The flying dragon snake let out a wail of pain and began to fall to the ground. Before it struck the ground, it managed to regain it's flying capabilities. "Gyarados, don't take that, Hydro Pump that measly computer duck!" Livy yelled at the angered water pokémon. Gyarados flew up under the unwary Cyber who was busy avoiding, Venomoth's psybeams. Gyarados unleashed the torrents of water at the virtual pokémon. Who was struck directly in what would be its belly. "CYBER!!!!" Icy yelled, as Cyber began to fall to the ground himself. "PIDGEOT, grab Cyber!" Nicky yelled. Cyber disappeared as it went below the cliff the group was standing on. Pidgeot flew into the air and then began to dive bomb at Cyber. Meanwhile, "Omastar, Spike Cannon, wide spread!" The extinct pokémon began firing spikes off into a large barrage of extremely sharp and extremely large needles. The bombardment of projectiles reached the group but everyone hit the deck, unfortunately the flying Magneton's couldn't get close enough to the ground, and were struck by numerous bolts from the Omastar. They went flying into the back of the cliff and fainted. "Stupid shellfish, Lickitung, supersonic the Omastar." Lewis's Lickitung let out a high pitched scream at Omastar when the sound waves reached the crustacean it's eyes turned into swirl's and Omastar began to spin around in circles shooting of it's spikes every which way. "AHHH stop that you stupid shell, Omastar return!" Techor yelled, as Omastar was sucked into his pokéball. "No matter, Venomoth, Psybeam attack, Gyarados Dragon Rage!" Livy said smiling. The two fired off their attacks in unison at the clustered group of pokémon and people. They jumped aside in every which way. Icy unfortunately took the tail end of the psybeam, being flung into a rock and knocked unconscious. "KADABRA (MASTER {For all of you who can't speak Kadabra})!!!" Hocus yelled. He turned around and unleashed a psywave at the two evil pokémon, unfortunately rage had the best of him and his aiming was off, the two rocket pokémon flew to each side and easily avoided the psychic attack. "Alright Jib Jib I've had enough of these fools. Let's give em a Body Slam!!!" Craven yelled. "JIBBBLLLYYY!!!!" Jib Jib yelled charging the nearest enemy pokémon, which happened to be Venomoth. Jib Jib leapt into the air puffed up really big and collided with the Venomoth. Venomoth whirled back into the air, it tried to stop but Jib Jib's devastating attack caused it to fly into the rock of the cliff. "DRAT, Venomoth, return!" Livy screamed. It was at about this time that Nicky's Pidgeot and Cyber flew up above the cliff face ok. From behind they each attacked Livy's Nidorina, fainting it. "AHHH!!!! Nidorina return!" Livy yelled. But no one noticed Gyarados sneaking up behind them until both pokémon received a hyper beam to the back. Both pokémon fainted. "Shoot, Pidgeot return." Nicky yelled. Kelly ran over to Icy's limp body and returned Cyber for him. "Marowak, Lickitung take out Gyarados!!!" Lewis commanded. To this Marowak threw a Bonemerang and Lickitung jumped up try and stomp on him. Gyarados was still recovering from the Hyper Beam and was going to get hit except Muk threw a sludge at Lickitung, and Nidorino jumped up and horn drilled Marowak. The catastrophic attacks struck both pokémon and caused them to faint. "Shoot, alright Marowak, Lickitung, return. Pidgeot go!" Lewis's Pidgeot appeared ready for battle. Meanwhile Jib Jib had snuck up behind Muk and Nidorino. "Hmm JIB JIB DOUBLE EDGE THEM BOTH NOW!!!!" Craven yelled. Jib Jib charged up while running at the two pokémon from behind, Techor tried to yell something but to no avail, the energy blades struck both pokémon from behind, they both fell to the ground. Despite the colossal recoil Jib Jib didn't seem to notice. "MAN MUK NIDORINO, RETURN!!!!" Techor yelled. It was down to Livy's two other pokémon. "Don't worry, I have a plan. Gyarados, Hyper beam those boulders up there," she pointed to a stack of boulders. "Kabutops, you Hydro Pump the boulders as well." Both pokémon unleashed their ultimate attacks, blasting the boulders loose, causing them to fall onto the group below. Some rocks hit and caused to faint: Lewis, Kelly, Sara, Hocus and Nicky's Blastoise. "HA HA!!!" Livy yelled, "Not too many left now, it's just down to three people. Nicky was busy trying to un-bury Kelly as soon as possible as was her Eevees. He didn't see the last of the rocks coming down striking him, and Kelly's eevees. "Okay Meeko, it's down to us!" Craven yelled. "Yep," Meeko replied, "IVYSORE VINE WHIP, GYRADOS!" Ivysore tried to but was hydro pumped by Kabutops. Despite his natural resistance to water it was too much and Ivysore fainted. "DAG GONE IT, Ivysore return!" Meeko yelled. It was at this time that Techor noticed the three disks, lying at the feet of the boulder downfall. The only pokémon left awake were Jib Jib, and Lewis's Pidgeot. "Now's the time to strike Livy," Techor said, he flung a large smoke grenade to the ground as they and Livy's pokémon put on gas masks from a backpack on Techor's backpack. Techor grabbed the three discs and put them into his backpack. Except after the second disk there was a tugging on the third, Techor started yelling, "GIVE ME IT NOW OR YOU'LL PAY THE PENALTY!!!!" "NEVER!!!" Craven yelled trying to tug the Air Disc of Techor's hands. Lewis's Pidgeot was confused. He was coughing and his trainer had fainted. It was pitch black. Then he heard the barely conscious Lewis whisper, in a coughing tone, from under rocks. "Pidgeot...Whirlwindddd...." Lewis slipped back into unconsciousness. Now Pidgeot knew what to do. Nicky and Kelly's Eevee's had just come to when the onslaught of wind blew away the smoke. The first thing Nicky, Meeko, Lewis's Pidgeot, and Kelly's eevees all saw was the same thing. Craven was fighting for the Air Disc with Techor. Craven secretly noticed the others watching, "JIB JIB," he yelled, "BODY SLAM THIS LOSER!!!!" Craven yelled. The Jigglypuff ran at the rocket, puffed up and jumped into him. Causing Techor to drop the disc and fly backwards. Craven reeled back with the Air Disc in his hands. At this time Lewis regained full consciousness although he was under a lot of rocks he could see what was happening. He also noticed Gyarados and Kabutops getting ready for an attack. "CRAVEN THROW THE DISC TO PIDGEOT!!!" Lewis yelled at Craven. Craven looked at the rubble and heard the scream. He understood and threw the disc to the bird pokémon. Techor and Livy were about to get out the Water Disc to give to Gyarados, but it was too late. Pidgeot's eyes started to glow a bright white. "NO NO IT CAN'T BE WE WERE SO CLO...." the screaming Techor was cut off, by a giant whirlwind emitting from the glowing Pidgeot. The whirlwind picked up the two discs and pokémon and rockets and through them into the air. As they sailed away it could barely be heard. "BUT WE STILL HAVE THE OTHER TWO DISCS!!!!" Livy screaming her final decree as they sailed into the distance. Craven looked at the rubble and ran over to it and began throwing rocks off of people. Meeko and Nicky helped. After about ten or fifteen minutes everyone was out of the rubble. In an hour everyone was awake and everyone' s wounds were treated. Icy looked at Craven "Yo... you saved the Air Disc, and our lives Craven...." "It was nothing," he replied. "No it was, you're the only reason we're alive and the only reason we have the next clue to the fourth disc, thank you." Icy said wincing in pain at a slightly fractured arm. (Frosterfree's conclusion to Part 9) "Giovanni's agents have captured two of the discs sir." "Excellent. Everything is going just as I planned." "Right sir. Our agent is meeting with him now." "As you can see, my plan is working perfectly." "For now it is. But you only got two of their discs. Why didn't you get the third?" "My agent knows what he is doing." "I suppose that's why he didn't dispose of Icy while he had the chance?" "You stay out of that matter. It does not concern you." "A touchy topic. Heh, I understand." "If that is all, you may go." "Oh, I'm finished here. Until next time." Giovanni picks up the red phone by his desk. "Techor, Livy, come in." "Yes sir." "You have pleased me. Now, protect those discs. I would have you return here, but I need you to remain close to Icy's group. They will lead you to the fourth disc." "Right sir. Craven has done well too." "Of course he has, he's a star agent. Just don't you two blow his cover." "Don't worry about a thing sir. Um, what do you want done about Icy?" "Take him, alive. I still have a score to settle with that Pikachu." "Right. You can count on us. Consider those two discs ours." "For your sake, I hope so." Giovanni hangs up the phone and stokes his Persian. "Soon it'll be mine. Soon, it will all be mine." Icy and the rest of the group slide down Mt. Moon until finally reaching the bottom. "Ughh, my arm hurts." Icy moaned holding his broken arm. "I think it's broken." "Oh my. We need to get you to a pokécenter right away," Kelly said. "There's one just down the road. It's only 5 minutes from here I think." They all rushed the center. Nicky took hold of Sara while Lewis held Icy. "It's ok Icy. You'll be as good as new in a few minutes." They arrived at the pokécenter finally. Icy was still complaining a bit. "Oww, it hurts." "Nurse Joy. Please, Icy here broke his arm. Can you help him?" "Of course, but you really should take better care of., oh, wait, never mind." Joy turned her focus from Lewis to Icy himself. "You should take better care of yourself." Icy sweatdropped. "I'm sure it was just an accident, but accidents can be very dangerous, especially for a pokémon. I' ll fix you up right away." "Thank you." Nurse Joy called for the Chanseys and they rolled Icy into the ER. "Well, let's find out where we are going next. Pidgeot, translate the disc for me." Lewis's Pidgeot translates the writing on the disc. "Hey!" Lewis suddenly realizes that they are missing the other two discs. "Techor and Livy stole the other discs!" "What! Oh no. How are we going to get them back?" "Never mind that. They seem to always run into us. Next time we see them, I'm getting those discs back." Pidgeot finished translating the inscription. "Pidgeot says the next clue is, 'That which clouds the mind is visible here,'" "Huh, that doesn't make any sense," Kelly said. "Hey, Kelly finally got stumped." Mars jumped up and smacked Nicky on the head for the comment. "Oww, hey I was just joking around. You don't have to get all protective." "Yes he does." Ivysore commented. "Stay out of it." Nicky gave Ivysore a big clonk on the head. "Ok ok, stop fighting and start thinking about what the answer is." The light to the emergency room dimmed and Nurse Joy came out holding Icy. He looked as good as next except for the cute little cast on his arm. "Make sure he wears this for a week. His arm still needs time to heal then it will be fine." "No problem Nurse Joy." "It's psychic," Icy said suddenly. "What?" Nicky replied. "The fourth element is psychic. Saffron City is the location." "Hey, that works. To a psychic, nothing clouds the mind. All the highest concentration of psychic energy is in Saffron City. But, how did you know the clue Icy?" Icy attempts to use his broken arm but realizes he can't so he uses his left to point to his head. "Telepathy. You weren't too far away so I was able to hear it." "That's cool. So, shall we head out?" "Yep. Saffron City, here we come!" As our group continues their adventure, who knows what dangers they will run in to. The future doesn't look too bright and our heroes still need five more of the discs plus the two they lost! How will they ever succeed?
