Back to the PODA

(Note: Shortly after joining, Lewis left to find Icy, a bug trainer tht was once the Pikachu T.A.C. was looking foe. He got caught up in an adventure, but decided to temporarily leve the group to check on PODA.)

Last time, Lewis said he would get back to the group soon. He had to check in with the PODA and tell everyone he was alright.

Lewis walked into the PODA building and shouts, "Hey everybody, I'm back!" There was a long silence. "I said I'm back! Hello! Is anyone here?" Lewis shouts. Lewis walked over to the main desk. A note was sitting on the table which read, "Gone Detectiv'n at Cerulean City Police Station." Lewis saw the note, and grabbed his stuff again. He quickly ran outside and saw looked at his map.

"Tiki knows something about Mewtwo that I don't. Maybe the PODA can help me find out what my past is REALLY like! Or else that liar Mewtwo can pay the price for what he did to Icy!" Lewis shouts. Lewis finds the police station on the map, and hurries to catch up with his old friends.

Meanwhile, at the police station...

"So, are we going to go in or what?" asked John. Tiki, Pipian and Score were stuck in a limbo for the past while and John finally couldn't wait any longer. John dropped a Pokéball and Spark popped out. A whisper later, the three found themselves on the recieving end of a Thundershock.

"Aaaaggghhh!" they yelled. Score got up, dusted himself off, then walked to the entrance... and took out a package of bacon. Surprisingly, half the police force ran out, looking very angry and began to chase Score. The group looked on in amazement.

"Boy, mayhem has struck and he didn't even say a word," said Pipian.

John and Tiki were about to head inside when John's extra-special hearing picked up footsteps behind them. He flipped backward, went over the stranger's head, landed, then kicked one right in the arse. Lewis fell flat on his face.

"You know, John, that's not a good way to say hello," said Lewis as he got up from the ground. John smiled sheepishly.

"What is it, Lewis?" asked Tiki.

"Tiki, I have to talk to you about a certain omnipotent cat," said Lewis.

Tiki was about to say no, but decided to go against it. "John, you go into the Police Station and search for the microfilm. Pipian, search the outside perimeter for Darian or at least a sign that he was here. Do we have a way to communicate?"

John nodded, then handed a watch to each PODA member currently here. "I spent a few nights working on these. They're special wrist communicators/watches/beepers. Press the left button once to call a specific member, twice to call all members, and three times to create a special 'Abort' signal should something go on. The right buttons are used to set the watch. Syncronize them...now!" John pushed a button on all watches, and they all said the same time. Then he dashed off in one direction while Pipiann hobbled in another. Tiki looked at Lewis.

"Now, what was that you wanted?"

re: by lewis8661

"Mewtwo brought me into some sort of void." Lewis starts to explain to Tiki. "When I was brought inside, he didn't try to hurt me, he wanted to ask me about something." Lewis finishes.

"He's a liar. If he's trying to convince you to help him-" Tiki started to say.

"No. It's not that. Mewtwo is afraid of something." Lewis interrupts.

"Afraid? Mewtwo? Those two words don't go in the same sentence." Tiki said.

"He showed me an image of myself, a beautiful girl, and some guy walking on a path. He said that the death of one of them altered time, and things are what they are now. He says he's afraid," Lewis explains. "because time altered him too. His memory has been erased, and he knows it. He's afraid because he has been altered by something more powerful then him."

"More powerful then Mewtwo? Impossible." Tiki replied.

"Maybe, but it's what he said. By the by, what are you people doing here anyway?" Lewis asks.

re: by Tiki

"Well to answer your question we're trying to find this microfilm the police have of the Church burning case. And what do you want to know about Mewtwo anyway?" Tiki aksed looking at Lewis.

"Well I wanna know what's up with you and him?" Lewis inquired.

Tiki was thinking of a good answer when he saw Lewis's baby Jigglypuff standing behind him, "Cute Jugglypuff Lewis," Tiki said bending down and giving it a litttle pokemon treat.

"Puff puff, JIGGLY!!!" it screamed in joy as it gummed the Pokémon treat.

"Tiki, stop changing the subject! What is the deal with you and Mewtwo?"

"Well to make a VERY long story short.... Mewtwo created me as an artificial weapon to help him destroy the Pokémon league, unfortunatly something went wrong as I grew up and It didn't work out as he planned. Anyway I'm not a very good weapon anymore considering all of my psychic powers are gone. That good enough for you?"

"Uhhhhhh, Ummm ahhh duhhhh..." Lewis didnt exactly know how to respond. Before he could Tiki noticed Pipian waving at Tiki from a corner. Tiki walked toward Pipian, looking back to see Score with a package of bacon still running form a large group of overweight policemen. Lewis noticed Tiki leaving and ran after him, "HEY wait up," he said.

"What Lewis? I gotta get to work before Score gets tired," Tiki said getting irritated.

"SO, how did Mewtwo lose control of you?" Lewis asked.

"I don't know everything was going according to his plan until something changed, I did something that wasn't supposed to happen according to Mewtwo, I don't know what it was but I bet it has something to do with TA... I mean PODA. Listen Lewis, either tag along or not, I don't care."

Lewis was consuming all this information not quite sure what was happening. Tiki walked over to Pipian, "What's going on?" he asked.

"Darian is down there," Pipian pointed to an open window at ground level, he looked at the lock that Darian had managed to pick, nothing special. Tiki slid through to find Darian sitting in a chair.

"It took you long enough to get down here," he commented standing up. "I need your help in picking this lock here."

Tiki walked over to the door, took out his lock picks and bent down to get level with the lock. "Well let's see here, what do we have, stainless steel, pretty new. Two locks on it, each pretty advanced, this may take awhile." Tiki took out two thin picks and placed them into the top lock and started to get to work.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the police station....

"God dammit, how long is she going to be here?" John thought. He was currently hiding under a desk as Officer Jenny was filling out some forms. Unfortunately, in John's rush to hide he had left his tail out in the open, and right now Jenny's chair was sitting right on it. He was in real pain, yet managed to keep from yelling. Also, his watch was useless since he couldn't call the others for fear of Jenny hearing it. "Knew I should have kept noises out of this thing. Stupid, stupid stupid."

Back outside, Score was literally running circles around the policemen, who by now were completely tuckered out. At this same time, Tiki was halfway through the first lock. Pipian, meanwhile, was tinkering with the watch.

"Now, was that on time or two?"

"One for single, two for groups, Pipian." said Tiki absentmindedly. Pipian pressed the button and a few letters appeared on screen. Manipulating the other buttons, he chose the L, for Laramie.

Back in the office, John was slowly going nuts. Jenny was still working on forms. John was about to yell when a beep emanated from his watch. Jenny stopped.

"What was that?" she asked. Another beep. She looked around.

"Anyone here?" yet another beep. She started looking around. John took this time to whip his tail out, then he crawled to the window and climbed out. Luckily, Jenny was searching the closet at the time. John closed the window, then breathed. And almost screamed. There, in front of him, was a group of very angry looking Growlithes. "Oh crap..."

(skip gratuituous violence)

Back in the microfilm room, Tiki was finished woth the first and starting on the second lock when a thud came from the window. Darian, still in his feminine police outfit, looked outside and saw John, bruised, burned and bitten.

"What the heck?" He pulled John inside and placed him against a chair. Pipian and Tiki looked at him, then sighed.

"Don't worry, Darian, he's okay. That's normal health for John." Tiki went back to work on the lock.

re: by Tiki

Meanwhile even the durable Score was wearing down, and his hands were all sticky from the bacon and the food was attracting many a Rattatta and Pidgey. So at the moment Score had about two dozen police officers chasing him, and about one dozen of each Pokémon as well. The Pokémon were much faster than the slow fat policemen, and this was wearing Score down thin.

In the basement Tiki was still on the second lock, "TIKIII... Huryyy up..." Darian whined, "This wonderbra itches like hell."

"Quiet this takes awhile." Tiki looked up, "HEY JOHN go check on Sco.... nevermind," Tiki said noticing John on the brink of fainting, "Okay Pipian go... nevermind" Pipian didn't get the cast off for another week. "Well Darian your the only one left, you need to go check on Score see if he needs any help."

"WHAT!!!! BUT I NEED TO BE HERE...." Darian started.

"Just not for long, I still need to work on this lock, Score must be getting tired, and he may need your help and you're the only one that is able to help." Tiki said going back to his work.

"Man..." Darian said, getting up and jumping out the window. He walked around the corner to see Score on the brink of fainting, he almost looked as bad as John, (ALMOST), Darian ran toward Score and passed in front of him, "SCORE HERE!!!!" Darian yelled holding out his hands.

Score flung the bacon at Darian, this caused the Pokémon to get off Score's trail and half the police went after Darian, this allowed Score to slow down some. Just when things couldn't get worse, Officer Jenny came out, saw what was happening, and released the Growlithe's who smelling the Bacon went charging after Darian.

"GOT IT!!!" Tiki said, as click eminated through the room and the door creaked open, "I still got it."

"It's about damn time." John said, staggering into the now open room, Pipian walked in and Tiki picked up his gear and walked in after them.....

re: by Tiki

"So what are we looking for anyway?" Pipian asked.

"Anything that might have microfilm in it." Tiki said starting to snoop through boxes. "Oh yeah you two put these gloves on. You can never be too careful." Tiki handed them two pairs of gloves. And then he went back to shuffling through boxes with his own gloved hands.

After some time John dragged out a box into the open, "Guys check this out," John said. Tiki and Pipian walked over and found that John had discovered the box with the church burning. "Look at all this stuff."

As the three took everything out of the box they found reports talking about how the psychic burn energy could have been artifically created. How the police had reason to believe the burning was cause by Team Rocket. Then they found the microfilm, it had every report copied onto it, pictures from the scene of the crime, all the evidence on it. Tiki took out a small scanning device and scanned a copy of the microfilm.

"Okay time to get out of here," Tiki commented as they put everything back in it's place. When everything was as it should be, the group walke dout of the room, closed the door and relocked the locks. At this moment the cop that Darian had knocked out was coming too, Pipian looked around, took a nnearby 2 by 4 and smacked the cop over the head, knocking him out again.

The group crawled out of the wondow and relocked it also. Then they looked around and walked to the front of the building. There they saw Darian starting to tire and Score almost unconcious, luckily Darian was still dressed like a girl and Score was in a mask, so there was no chance of identification.

"Hmmm how we gonna get those two out of there?" Tiki had an idea, "Flutter go," the Butterfree came out of her Pokéball and started circling around. "Flutter! Whirlwind up as much dust that you can to block out the sight of the policemen."

Flutter flew up and started flapping her wings as hard as she could, a small dust cloud started forming, then it increased, by the time it reached the running people it was a veritable sandstorm. Flutter kept it up for about two minutes then was too tired to go on. "Flutter return," Tiki said as the Butterfree returned to the Pokéball. Then the three detectives walked off to PODA. They met both Score and Darian on the way, who had run off when the sandstorm kicked up.

"Thanks guys, I was almost dead on my feet," Score said.

"Me too," Darian said.

"Hey Darian, where's the bacon?" John asked.

"I gave it to those Pokémon, and I managed to catch a Pidgey." Darian said smiling holding up a pokeball.

The gang walked to PODA to find the door open, "That's not good," Tiki said as he opened the door, Charm ran up to Tiki and grabbed his cloak.

"CLEFABLE CLEFABLE (THERE'S A GUY IN OUR BASEMENT)!!!!!"

"WHAT! Where is he Charm?" Charm led the group to the basement of PODA to see an unconcious man lying there, on his stomach.
