Chapter 2 Wrong Path
"Hi, thank you very much for saving our house!" Said Samantha's mom. "I would like you to have this in return, it is called a Great Ball, and it has a better chance of catching a Pokémon than a Pokéball."
"Thanks," I said thankfully.
"Since I help save your house too, how about a date with your daughter!" Nick asks with hearts, this time with arrows going through them."
"Ha, ha," Samantha's mom said giggling and she then winked at Samantha.
"Hey," Samantha said. "I'm not going to go out with that ugly creep!"
As she said that, those hearts with arrows broke in half.
"I would be glad to make Samantha come along on your journey," Samantha's mom demanded.
"You really mean it mom? Thank you," she said as she hugged her mom.
While Samantha was packing up, Nick and I went back home. My Uncle Brown was worried about me, but I told him that we had after school detention. But, he took the reaction better than I thought. I then ask him if I could stay over Nick's house for a week. That will give us time to go back to the Pokémon World. He then said yes.
"All right Nick, now we have time to go to the Pokémon world!" I said. But, Nick look so sad so I just kept my mouth shut until he said-
"My parents are going to be out for a week so, we can stay as long as we want at the Pokémon World," Nick said. I expected him to say something stupid, but I just didn't no why he was so depress.
As soon as we got back to the Pokémon World, I had stop along the shop and bought some Pokéballs, I only had 300 Poké dollars because of Oak rewarding me because I saved his lab. The Pokéballs were cheap, they were 5 dollars, and so I bought myself 20 of them.
"Hey," a kid in a dark suit said. "My name is James and I would want to know what town are you going to next?"
I checked my Pokégear. "I'll be going to Viridian Forest next, but first I have to fight the gym leader."
"I've heard," he said. "That in the Viridian City Gym, that the leader has stepped out for a month."
"Okay, I'll just have to go to the Viridian Forest," I said.
"Why go to the Viridian Forest, when you can go on Rocket Train and go straight to Pewter City," he said.
"Okay," I said. "But I just have to wait for my friend Nick to get my friend Samantha, by the way my name is Afro."
"I got her," Nick said still depressing.
"Hey everybody, we are going on the Rocket Train, James is going to show us where it is," I said.
"Hi, I'm Samantha and I love to train ground Pokémon.
"Pleasure to meet you Samantha," said James as he kissed Samantha's hand. Samantha blushed. When Nick saw that he looked like he didn't want this guy around.
When we finally got to the Rocket Train, a man in a yellow suit and a hat said, "Welcome aboard, the ride is free, so have a great time!"
"Hey," Nick said. "Aren't you the man from Curious George? The man in the yellow hat?
The man looks at Nick with his eyes red. Samantha looked annoyed of Nick being around.
When we arrived inside the train, Nick walk all the way to the back of the train, while we were at the front of the train.
"So Afro," James said. You're going to the collect all the badges to become a Pokémon Master?"
"Yeah," I said.
"Well guess what, I won't let that happen because I'm Justin and Team Rocket and I fooled you into thinking your going into, Pewter City," he said as the train started to move.
"What?" Samantha said.
"Come Samantha, you can join me and Team Rocket to become a Pokémon Master. Pokémon are just collections for making money, Afro I knew that there had to be a Pokémon World. You think you could have outsmarted me? Just because in school when the teacher ask about a Pokémon and you got the answer right before I did you think you're better than I am? Well come on Samantha lets train together," Justin said.
"No Samantha don't," I said. "Pokémon are for loving not just collections."
"Oh yeah," Justin said. "Go Bellsprout."
"Bellsprout."
"You've probably figured out that when you was going to the bathroom to come to the Pokémon World, that I was holding your hand so I got transported," Justin said. "Jenny, Johnny we've company."
"Go Nidorino," Johnny boy said.
"Go Nidorina," Jenny said.
"Bulbasaur, Charmander, go!" I said.
"You too Sandshrew!" Samantha said.
"Attack that puny Bulbasaur with Vine Whip!" Justin demanded.
Bellsprout started hitting Bulbasaur with Vine Whips like crazy, but then, Bulbasaur started dodging the Vine Whips back and fourth and back and fourth. Then, Bulbasaur ended up right in front of Bellsprout.
"Bulbasaur use Tackle!"
"Bulbasaur," Bulbasaur said as Bellsprout went flying into the wall.
"Bellspourt return you weakling," Justin said. "Go Staryu."
"Bulbasaur, great job," I said as Bulbasaur return into his Pokéball. "Go Charmander!"
"Charmander."
"Charmander, use your Slash!"
Charmander ran up to Staryu and went to do a Slash, but-
"Staryu use water gun!" Justin said. Staryu shot out a huge water gun knocking out Charmander. "Ha, I told you that my Pokémon were strong."
"Why don't you let me have some fun," said Nick as he came barging in the door.
"Go Hitmonchan," Nick said.
I pulled out my Pokédex<Hitmonchan A Punching Pokémon. Nicknamed the 'Piston Puncher'. Unlike Hitmonlee, who only uses its feet, Hitmonchan only uses its fists for fighting. While apparently doing nothing, it fires punches in lightning fast volleys that are impossible to see. Hitmonchan's punches are quicker than the speed of light. It is not a good idea to get this Pokémon mad. >
"Hitmonchan use that punchy thingy," Nick said confused.
"Mega Punch," Samantha said.
"Yeah, thanks Thunder Punch."
"Staryu, Tackle that thing!" Justin said.
While Staryu was spinning straight at Hitmonchan, Hitmonchan used Thunder Punch knocking Staryu out.
"Staryu, you weak Pokémon, return to your Pokéball," Justin said
"Good job Nick," Samantha said. Then, Nick had hearts around him floating up in the air.
"Looks like it's Team Rockets turn," Jenny said.
"Go Nidoriono," Johnny boy said.
"So Johnny boy you've stolen another Pokémon?" I said
"Stop calling me Johnny boy," he said crying.
"Go Nidorina!" Jenny boy, I mean girl said.
"Sandshrew go and use your scratch attack," Samantha said.
Sandshrew ran as fast as he can and scratch both Nidorina and Nidorino, with both hands.
"Now use Earthquake," Samantha said as Sandshrew made a big Earthquake. The train just broke in half, which sent Team Rocket and Justin flying one way, and Samantha, Nick, and me flying the other way. Then everything turn black.
"Wake up Afro," I felt somebody tugging on my arm. "Wake up!" It was Samantha.
"I'm okay," I said.
"Good," Nick said. "Because we're on this strange town and the only thing I can think of is thinking." Samantha and I looked puzzled. "Oh, wrong sentence, look there's a Pokémon over there." I pulled out my Pokédex. <Psyduck A Duck Pokémon. While lulling its enemies with it's vacant look, this wily Pokémon will use psychokinetic powers. Uses psychic attacks to confuse it's enemies, then uses water attacks like Hydro Pump to faint it's foes. His attacks include Tail Wag, Scratch, Confuse, and Disable. Psyduck has a constant headache. When it's own headaches get super strong and Psyduck's mind is about to burst, it lets loose an overload of mental energy. Aside from this, Psyduck can be clumsy on land. > "I'm going to capture that Poké thingy."
"Hey, I'm the Pokémon trainer over here it's only fair that I capture it," I said.
"NO, I'm going to capture this Pokémon all by myself, go Geodude!" Nick yelled as he threw out his Pokéball.
"Geodude," The Pokémon said.
"Nick," Samantha said. "Water Pokémon have the advantage over rock Pokémon!"
"Don't worry oh cute one," Nick said. "Geodude may have a disadvantage, but she has a good defense so, you don't have a thing to worry about. Geodude, use rock slide!"
"Geodude," The Pokémon said as she started to throw rocks at high speed, but Psyduck didn't seem to feel it.
"Ha," Nick said, "Psyduck's feeling all the pain a Pokémon can possibly feel.
"It's just like you," Samantha said, "hardheaded."
"Looks like Nick pick the right Pokémon with the same personality as him," I said.
"You are correct!" Nick said winking at me, then winking at Samantha. He did this for about five minutes; he was starting to scare me but-
"Stop it," Samantha said smacking him in the face.
"The smack of love," Nick said as he threw a Pokémon instead of a Pokéball. "Pokéball go," he said. I didn't think he notice that he threw a Pokémon instead of a Pokéball, because he was lost in Samantha's eyes.
"Psssssyyyyyy," the Pokémon said fainting.
"Yes I caught a Psyduck," Nick said.
"Um Nick," Samantha said, "You haven't thrown your Pokéball yet."
"Yes thank oh cute one, bouncy ball go!" Nick said throwing a Pokéball.
"And Nick has captured a Psyduck," I said.
"You no what?" Nick said, "I caught a Psyduck with a bouncy ball!"
"I was impress by you," a voice said, "my name is Linda and I think your so cute. I hope to see more of you Nick. I have to go now," she said running.
"Man," Nick said "that girl is-"
"Cute?" I said cutting in.
"No man, UGLY," Nick said with hearts around his face.
"Hey, wait up," Samantha said yelling at Linda. "Can you show us where the nearest Pokémon Center is?"
"Yes," said Linda, "I'll be glad to."
We followed her for ten minutes then, we stopped at a Pokémon Center.
"Here it is," she said, "Nick, would you like to go out and have dinner."
"You know what?" Nick said. "I think I hear my Pokéball calling me," he said jumping into the window of the Pokémon Center.
We went inside the Pokémon Center and talked on the Vidphone to Oak.
"Hi person," Oak said, "So I see that that Team Rocket had send you the wrong path. So, you're in Central Island? Well don't worry where you are, you can collect all the gym badges there too. Just go talk to Professor Johnson in Central Island and you'll be okay, bye-bye."
"We didn't even get to say hi," Samantha said.
"Well anyway, Linda, can you show us where Professor Johnson's lab is?" I asked.
"Sure," she said, "I'll be glad too."
"Let's go, you'll never know there can be some pretty girls there?" Nick said.
