Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dark leaves his lab, glad Magma hasn't set up any new towers, although annoyed he still can't get any info on Hoen. Then Blade climbs out of Dark's lab and hands a sheet of paper.
Here's a list of the heatings new Johto.
Dark studies the paper.
So.... there must be a tower at Mt.Silver then.
Darks then notices something else, which causes his stomache to turn a bit.

-------------------------------------

I turned on the TV and started watching the news. I flipped to Hoenn News (HN), and I found a story that interested me.

*news music plays and stops*Hello, this is Debbie at HN, and we have breaking news. Rustboro City is being threatened with a bomb! Fortunately, no-one has been hurt, and they are evacuating the city, but the bomb squads have gotten stuck, and they have no-one to save them. The Rustboro Police is currently searching the central building, but has had no luck with the attempt. Please, please, someone help defuse the bomb. There isn’t much time!

I turned off the TV right then and there, thinking, 'Uh-oh. Those people need me. They’re being threatened with a bomb, but I can’t let that bomb blow up.’

I jumped off the couch and ran outside, sending my Clefairy out as I went. "Clefairy, teleport me to Rustboro City!" I yelled. Clefairy used teleport, and a few seconds later, I appeared just outside of Rustboro. "Now, to find those freaks."

I walked into the city, making sure everyone had evacuated the area. I saw no-one but the Rustboro Police, so I continued towards the center of Rustboro. Soon enough, I reached the center of the city and saw a huge building. I also saw two people standing off to the side of the building, avoiding detection.

I ran up to the people, sending out my Mudkip and my Bulbasaur. The two people sent out Voltorb and Electrode. "Mudkip, use Take Down, and Bulbasaur, use Poison Powder!" I said. Bulbasaur sent out a shimmering powder from its back, none of which the two Pokemon breathed in. Mudkip rammed into Voltorb, being careful not to get the poisonous powder into its mouth, but taking recoil.

"Huh? What happened?" the first person wondered out loud. "Voltorb, use Sonicboom!" "Electrode, use Rollout!" the second person said. Voltorb sent a few giant shock-waves towards my Pokemon, and Electrode started rolling towards Mudkip, ramming into it its first time around.

"Mudkip, use Protect! Bulbasaur, use Vine Whip!" I said. Mudkip dodged Electrode’s next roll-around, and Bulbasaur grabbed Voltorb and flung him over his head towards me. "Whoa!" I said, ducking out of the way of the flying Voltorb. Voltorb skidded to a halt about 30 feet behind me, then started rolling back towards Bulbasaur.

"Use Swift!" The first person yelled. Voltorb sent some stars towards Bulbasaur, and they hit him and knocked him over. Electrode came around to attack again, and Mudkip was hit again. "Mudkip!" I yelled. I watched Mudkip slowly get up and walk back to the battle, then yelled, "Mudkip, use Take Down again! Bulbasaur, use Solar Beam!"

Mudkip darted towards Voltorb, ramming it in the side, but taking recoil. Voltorb fell to the ground, and the first person returned him. Bulbasaur started preparing for a huge attack, so all he could do was wait.

"Pikachu, come on out!" The first person yelled, throwing another Pokeball. Pikachu appeared, and he told it to use Slam on Bulbasaur. Electrode flew at Mudkip again, who barely dodged the attack, and then fell over again. Mudkip struggled to get up, but as it did, it saw Bulbasaur being attacked by Pikachu. It used the last of its strength to dart in front of Pikachu and take the hit, then fainted.

"Mudkip, return. You fought well." I said. I returned Mudkip to its Pokeball, then sent out Beldum. "Beldum, use Take Down! Bulbasaur, attack now!" Bulbasaur sent a beam of solar energy towards Electrode. Beldum rammed into Pikachu, sending it flying. It also took some recoil, however.

"Pika!" Pikachu screamed. It rammed into the side of the building, then fell to the ground, but slowly got up. Electrode, however, was not so lucky. It took the beam right in the face, then fainted and rolled away. "Electrode, return. You fought well." the second person said, and Electrode disappeared in a flash of red light. "Electrike, come on out!" the second person threw another Pokeball, and out came an Electrike. "Electrike, use Charge!" Electrike started storing electricity, preparing for an attack again. "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Electricity lashed from Pikachu’s cheeks and flew towards Bulbasaur, but that didn’t do much.

"Bulbasaur, use Razor Leaf!" I said. "Beldum, use Take Down!" Bulbasaur emitted leaves which headed towards Electrike, and Beldum rammed into Pikachu again, taking it out, along with taking some recoil. "Nooooooo! Pikachu!" The first person said. He returned Pikachu and said, "Grrrr…You’ll pay for this!" He ran away right after that.

"You idiot! Come back!" the second person yelled. He continued to yell until the first person is out of sight. "Argh! There he goes. I’m gonna report him to the boss when I get back." He realized he had let slip that there was another team out there, then whacked himself in the head. "Oh crap."

"Beldum, use Take Down again! Bulbasaur, use Tackle!" I said, before the second person could retaliate. Beldum hit first, dealing a ton of damage to Electrike but taking recoil, and Bulbasaur followed up, taking Electrike out. "What? How could I lose?" The second person said. Before I could interrogate him however, he disappeared around a corner.

"Grrr...He's gone." I said. "Guys, return. I need to do this alone." I returned my Pokemon to their Pokeballs, then went inside the building. "There's a bomb around here somewhere...Now to find it." I looked around for the bomb on the first floor, but I couldn't find it, so I moved up a floor.

I kept looking and looking, but each floor I found nothing. Eventually I saw a mass of Rustboro Police searching for the bomb. They had split, leaving few people on the floors they had been through.

I continued to look around, but found nothing. I moved up a floor again, and again, and again. I finally got to the top floor, and there it was. The bomb was sitting there, no-one around it. I ran over to it and started trying to find out how to defuse it. I looked down at the time: 10 minutes.

I tried to find how to defuse it for 9 minutes before I found out how to. I looked down at the clock. I had one minute left! Hurriedly I tried to defuse it, but I needed about 55 seconds, so I got started right away. I started sweating, knowing what would happen if I didn’t get it. I have to get this. If I don’t, I won’t make it.

I looked down at the timer. 10 seconds left! 10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1... With one second left, I got the timer to stop! The bomb didn’t explode, and I was safe. I took the elevator down to the bottom floor, then walked out of the building and rested against a pole.

Whew. That wasn’t hard, just horrifying. I thought. I’m never doing that again. I started to walk out of Rustboro. When I got to the exit, some small movement caught my eye. I went to go see what it was, and I saw a Tropius. I ran over to it and sent out my Taillow.

“Tailow, use Wing Attack!” I yelled. Taillow swooped down upon the Tropius, who noticed it and attacked back with Magical Leaf. Tailow took the attack in the side, and I told it to use Steel Wing. Taillow’s wings grew silvery, and then it flew upon Tropius again, but missed this time. Tropius retaliated with Solar Beam, and it started preparing to attack.

“Tailow, use Aerial Ace!” I said. When Taillow hit, I threw a Pokeball.

Shake, shake, shake.

Shake, shake, shake.

Shake, shake, shake.

Ding!

“Yes, I caught a Tropius!” I yelled. I hugged Taillow, and returned it to its Pokeball. I sent out Vibrava and had it fly me back to HQ.

When we got back, I hopped off of Vibrava and returned it. I walked inside, and grabbed a couple donuts. I went into my room, flopped onto my bed, and ate them. When I finished, I fell to sleep, extremely tired.
