From: Roland Le Good <roland@minuet.demon.co.uk> Subject: [PW!] Caleb, NEW STORY! Date: Saturday, December 25, 1999 11:59 AM Part 1: Horrorgon (c)... PLZ note, I'm not creating a new Pokemon. I want to make this clear now. All will be explained... The Tauros swung Caleb sprawling into a tree. He heard a crack as his back slammed into the wood. He grunted as he fell to the floor. Climbing to his knees he looked at the beast. It was about to charge him, he needed to be quick and that last blow had really hurt. " Ok, Tauros, let's dance..." Caleb spat. Teh Tauros grunted and charged into him. He moved quickly, but not quick enough. It slashed his chest and sent blood spraying into the air. " Tango it is," Caleb pulled its head down and lept on its back. The thing kicked and grunted as he struggled forward. This was how the last person got killed when they tried to stop it. But Caleb had a gun. He already had it in his hand and held on tight as the Turos slammed him into walls. He crawled up to its head and pressed his gun against the back of its skull. He looked away as the pulled the trigger. The muffled gunshot made the creature limp as the contents of its skull were sprayed across the ground. He gritted his teeth as he walked away. People looked up to him as a man to be feared but he hated killing things...pokemon anyway. And he was squemish as hell. He found the game warden, " It's down, how many people did it kill?" " Two and it trampled two Nidorans and a Doduo," " Ok, fine. Payment?" " Of course," the Warden handed over £500," " Hmph, well thanks. Bye!" Caleb turned and walked away. His chesr hurt alot. He had been slashed by a Tauros and the wound was deep. He went to the hospital and showed the wound. He was fixed up quickly and was outside before the end of the day. " Ah...finally, my holiday, what do you think guys? Where should we go?" His pokemon shrugged. " Maro, Marowak!" " CHU! Rai, Raichi chu!" " Ditto, dot dotto!" " Hmmm, I'm getting kinda hungry so we'll eat now," He ate at a fast food shack and headed down town. " Hmmm, so much to do...but what?" He asked himself. His pokemon secured in his belt he wandered around looking for something to do. Soon he was approached by a short man in a dark suit with bi glasses. He had very little hair and looked to be in his 40's. " Excuse m-m-m-me, s-s-s-sssir. Caleb? You're a P-p-pokem-mon hunter aren't you?" He asked, he had a very strong stutter. " Uh yes..." " My name is Sandbridge, could you help me? I have large p-problem, co-c-could you help?" " Sure, where is it?" the other man took him away to a large office building. Caleb was taken to a window, it was open and the other guy indicated to it. " Our office pet, a Meowth has climbed out onto the window ledge, could you help us get it?". " I don't see any Meowth," " I-i-it's there," Caleb peered out of the window. Sandbridge pushed his back sending him out of the window. Caleb clung on and swung to the outside. " System error, subject awake, correcting," The voice came from a computer. Sandbridge began to shake as a Pokemon shook out of him. A gengar stood next to Sandbridge. " Hahahaha!" It grinned at Caleb and shifted through the wall. The voice from the computer turned out to be a pokemon. Caleb discovered this when it emerged from the computer. It looked like a Porygon, but where the Porygon is pink it was dark orange and where Porygon is blue it was black. " What the hell? A Porygon?" Caleb climbed in as the Porygon blasted Sandbridge with a Psybeam, killing his mind. " Secondary target eliminated," " Oh my god..." Caleb gasped. He fired at it, two shots, directly in its chest. data code rippled across its body and it bent around and snapped back into shape. The bullet holes were gone. " Error error, [EDA] Null string..." The Porygon fizzled and split apart then flew into a computer. Caleb looked at the screen as the Porygon fizzled and dissapeared. He fired at the computer and destroyed it. He stopped as he heard a bleeping sound. " Oh great," He pushed the desk aside and found a briefcase. He prised it open and found inside; Two canisters, a timer and a fusebox. " uh oh," The timer had 30 seconds left. " Uh, ok. This is like the moves...now which wire," He opened the fuse box and inside it was a mix of nearly fifty differant wires. " Oh stuff it," He grabbed the bomb and ran as fast as possible out of the building. He pasued for a second whilst he decided waht to do. " Uh...the harbor!" He raan down through the city. He had 20 seconds to get to the harbour. If he died he would take lot's of people with him. Maybe he could throw it. He looked around as he stumbled on. To his left two nuns walking calmly, his left, a mother holding a baby. " Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb," He saw the docks. he sprinted faster and faster. " 10....9....8.....7..." I'm not gonna make it, Caleb thought in horror. " 6....5....4...." He reached the water edge. " Only seconds!" He threw the bomb. I splashed in the water as Caleb ran back and dived down. A large splash was heard behind him as foaming water sprayed over him. The ground was soaked along with Caleb as the water rolled backwards. Man that came close, Caleb thought. What the hell was that weird Pokemon, it looked like some form of....Porygon. Whatever was happening, someone wanted him dead, and they weren't messing around...
