Here is the last part of Chapter 6.
Chapter 6: On The Run Part 3
Blaine: I choose you! Charmeleon! (Blaine throws the
pokeball up in the air,
and Charmeleon pops out and appears on the playing field)
Duplica: I choose my Ditto, of course! (Throws her pokeball
up in the air,
her Ditto appears on the playing field)
Announcer: Begin!
Blaine: Go Charmeleon! Flamethrower attack! (A burst of
flame shoots from
Charmeleon towards Ditto)
Duplica: Ditto, Transform! (Ditto turns into a copy of
Charmeleon) Dodge the
attack, then use your ember attack!
Ditto barely avoids getting singed by the flamethrower
attack, and returns
an ember attack in return, hitting Charmeleon.
Blaine: Nice move. You'll need more than that to beat me,
though.
Charmeleon, tackle attack! (Charmeleon runs at Ditto)
Duplica: Evade it, Ditto, then use tail slap attack! (Ditto
avoids the
tackle attack, and hits Charmeleon with a tail slap,
knocking it to the
ground)
Blaine: Charmeleon, counter with scratch attack! (Charmeleon
starts
stratching Ditto)
Duplica: Headbutt! (Ditto tries to headbutt Charmeleon)
Blaine: Tail slap that Ditto down! (Charmeleon tail slaps
Ditto as it
charges for headbutt, knocking it to the ground.)
Duplica: Umm...get up, Ditto. Ember attack! (Ditto sends
flames at
Charmeleon, hitting it and causes Charmeleon to go off
balance.) Headbutt
attack!
Blaine: Get up and counter with flamethrower! (Charmeleon is
almost up when
Ditto hits it, knocking it to the ground while Charmeleon is
simultaneously
shooting out flames. Ditto gets badly smoked by the attack
but is still
standing. Charmeleon is out cold.)
Duplica: (Excited) I did it!
Announcer: Charmeleon is unable to battle. Ditto is the
winner!
Blaine: That's good. Now meet my ultimate pokemon, Magmar!
(Blaine brings
Charmeleon back to its pokeball, and throws out his other
pokeball, out of
which Magmar appears)
Duplica: Ok! Ditto, transform into Magmar! (Ditto transforms
into a copy of
Magmar) Let's start with a flamethrower attack! (Ditto
shoots a stream of
flames towards Magmar.)
Blaine: Magmar, move out of the way and use smog attack!
(Magmar unleashes a
gaseous cloud that fills the room up.)
Duplica: (Coughing) Ditto, burn the smog away!
Blaine: (As Ditto is preparing to burn away the smog)
Magmar, magma punch!
(Magmar seemingly comes out of nowhere and lands a magma
punch right in
Ditto's stomach, sending it flying across the floor. Ditto
is out cold.)
Duplica: No! Ditto!
Announcer: Ditto is unable to battle. Magmar is the winner!
Duplica: (Dismayed) I tried...It's all up to you, Mini-Dit!
(Throws
pokeball, out of which mini-ditto appears.) Mini-Dit,
transform into magmar!
(Mini-dit transforms into a mini-copy of magmar.)
Blaine: So, that's the mini-ditto! Looks like a challenge to
me. Magmar,
smog attack! (Smog once again fills up the room)
Duplica: Mini-dit, run around and use your flamethrower to
burn off the
smog. (Mini-dit runs around, shooting flames everywhere. A
few shots hit
Magmar)
Blaine: Get that pipsqueak! Tackle attack! (Magmar tries to
catch Mini-dit
and tackle it, but it's too fast.)
Duplica: Dodge and counter with magma punch! (Mini-dit stops
running and
gives Magmar a magma punch, sending it reeling to the
ground)
Blaine: No! Magmar, flamethrower! Keep shooting, you'll hit
that mini-ditto!
(Magmar begins shooting flames everywhere, a few shots are
on the mark and
hit Mini-dit, who has been running around the floor)
Duplica: Hang in, there, Mini-dit! Use smog attack!
(Mini-dit creates a smog
cloud of its own and fills up the stadium)
Blaine: Using my tricks, eh? I'll just solve this problem
how you solved it.
Magmar, burn away the smog! (Magmar begins to burn away the
smog with its
flamethrower attack)
Duplica: Now, Mini-dit! Tackle attack! (Mini-dit comes out
of the smog and
runs into Magmar, setting it off balance) Turn around and
headbutt it! (The
staggering Magmar tries to move out of the way, but Mini-dit
is too quick,
Magmar is knocked to the ground) Yes!
Blaine: Magmar, get up! (Magmar tries to get up, but is
unable)
Announcer: Magmar is unable to battle. Mini-Ditto is the
winner, and Duplica
wins the match!
Duplica: Come here, Mini-dit! (Mini-Dit returns to its
original form and
goes to Duplica) You did great! Thanks! (Hugs Mini-dit)
Blaine: Congrats! You beat me, I remember now why its
difficult to go
against Ditto's. That Mini-Ditto was really something, it
had the powers of
my Magmar, but was much faster. Good match! (Walks over to
Duplica and
shakes her hand) I hope to battle you again some day.
Duplica: Sure, that would be nice. (Ash, Brock, and Misty
come up and start
talking to Duplica, congratulating her and thanking her and
Blaine for an
awesome battle)
After a short time, the group says goodbye to Blaine and
heads to the dock.
Ash: Well, we missed the last ferry for the day heading in
that direction. I
guess we'll have to camp out tonight.
Misty: Wait Ash, hold on a second. Is that Marin (from
Pokemon 2000) over
there?
Brock: Who's Marin?
Ash: Marin was the captain of that boat that we on just
before my "Lugia"
adventure. I thought I told you about that, where I had to
restore the
balance to the Orange Islands and the world...
Brock: Oh, yeah. I remember now. Didn't Misty save you from
drowning, and
Team Rocket even helped out?
Duplica: (Confused) Team Rocket HELPED you guys out? They're
wierd. They try
and do bad things all of the time, that doesn't fit their
character.
Misty: I'll tell you the whole story on our way to the
Orange Islands, Ash
will fill in anything I miss. I almost lost him
there...(Stops talking
suddenly)
Ash: Hey, Misty. It's ok. (Puts his arm around her) I'm
alive thanks to you.
Come on, let's go see if that's really Marin.
Misty: Ok.
The whole group walks down the dock, to the last pier, where
a woman is
walking around a boat, checking out various gages and dials.
Ash: Is that you, Marin?
Marin: (Startled) Huh? (Turns around) Oh, my! Its Ash and
Misty!
Misty: It's been a while. How are you doing?
Marin: I'm fine. I almost didn't recognize you two, you look
more grown up
and you have a different look. (Looks behind Ash and Misty)
Who are these
other two people with you here?
Misty: Ash and I decided it was time for a change. Marin,
this is Brock ,
our other traveling companion, and Duplica, a Ditto Trainer
and former owner
of the Imite House.
Marin: Nice to meet you two.
Brock: Likewise.
Duplica: Nice to meet you.
Marin: I was about to head out, I was here for some R &
R, and I was going
to head back to the Orange Islands. You guys headed that
way?
Misty: Actually we are, Marin. We're on the trail of Team
Rocket, and we
heard from a reliable source that they may be in the Orange
Islands area.
Ash: We just came here early today and found evidence that
they were here
after the Kanto bombings.
Marin: I heard about the four bombings. (Sighs) Just
terrible! They hit your
hometowns, right?
Brock: That's right. They also blew up Duplica's Imite
House!
Marin: Well, I can see why you four would be after them. Why
don't you come
with me, and I'll help you look for them. Those rotten
people should be
brought to justice.
Ash & Misty: Thanks!
Brock & Duplica: We owe yah one!
Marin: No problem. Get on board, and we'll head out.
Ash, Misty, Brock, and Duplica board the boat, which soon
zips off toward
the Orange Islands. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is set to set off
the next set of
bombs.
Jessie: Let's go! Bombs are ready! (Gets into the boat that
is docked next
to the secret base that they had been staying in)
James: Right! (Boards the boat)
Meowth: (Pushes a button, causing the base to sink down into
the ground, and
the undergrowth to cover it again) Perfect! Let's go!
(Meowth hops into the
boat, which takes off towards New Bark Town in the Johto
region)
Two minutes later, flash fires and explosions rock the
island. Smoke is
everywhere. Four hours later, the boat with Ash, Misty,
Brock, Duplica, and
Marin on it approaches the island. The sun is almost set.
Ash: Isn't that Tracey's hometown over there? Looks like
there's a lot of
smoke coming up from over there!
Misty: Oh no! Not another bombing! Quick, Brock, call your
friend and see if
he has any info about this bombing. Team Rocket still must
be somewhere
nearby.
Brock: (Dialing a number on the pokedex) (Talking on the
phone) Hello? Hey!
What's going on with this latest bombing?...Oh, I see...You
say a boat was
seen zooming off in a SW direction just after the
bombings...thanks, bye.
(Hangs up the connection, turns off the pokedex)
Duplica: What did he say?
Brock: I was just told that a suspicious boat was seen
heading SW out of
here just prior to the bombings. That would put it on a
beeline straight for
the Johto region.
Ash: We gotta stop them!
Marin: I agree. I'm turning the ship around, adjusting our
course. You guys
get in the cabin, I'm going to turn on the new turbo engines
I just
installed. (The other four passengers head down into the
cabin and buckle
up, as Marin turns on the turbo engines, shooting the boat
forward at an
incredable rate of speed.) (Flipping a switch) Auto-pilot
should be fine out
here. (Walks down to the cabin) Hope you guys are ok, those
engines have
quite a kick to them.
Ash: Where did you get those turbo engines from?
Marin: I picked those up from Shimouti Island last time I
was there. The
engines allow me to get around much quicker, and I can take
long trips
without spending days at sea.
Duplica: Neat. Now Ash, tell me the story of your Lugia
adventure.
Ash: Well, it started when...(Ash and Misty tell the story
of Pokemon 2000
to Brock and Duplica, who eagerly listen.)
As this chapter ends, two boats can be seen heading zooming
towards Johto.
One is closing on the other however. To be continued in
Chapter 7: Return To
Johto.
