Up, Up, and Away!!!

Day 4… Cerulean City Hospital

The next day at the Cerulean Hospital after the doctor had given Reshon the O.K. to leave the hospital and continue her journey. Reshon and Norman met at 5 a.m. to fly Reshon to Pallet Town to meet Professor Oak. For Reshon this was to be the first time in her entire life to every leave her hometown, Cerulean City. "O.k., Norman I'm ready to go," Reshon giggled with joy! "Dratini, Dratini, Drat, ni, tini," squealed her pokemon inside her backpack! "Oh, no wait a minute, Reshon, you can't let your pokemon ride like that! " Norman yelled," What would happen if we hit an air pocket are something?" "Don't worry, Dratini, won't fall out of my backpack!" "She is really smart, and she knows how to hold on really tight." "Maybe so Reshon, but what if the pokemon you're riding on can't handle both you and Dratini's weight at the same time," question Norman with a grin? "That doesn't make sense, all flying type pokemon should be able to hand both me and Dratini's weight easily!" "Are you sure about that?" "Go Breeze, and Flutter," Norman yelled as he throw out two pokeballs! Instantly after Norman release the twin pokeballs they both busts open in mid-air and released two red-beams of light. "Be-free," shouted the twin pokemon, as the two pokeballs returned to Norman's hand. "Do you think my Butterfrees can handle both of your weight?" Reshon looked at the two butterfrees. The first one worn a necklace around it's neck and was a cute purple color, while the other one was a dark blue with a black scarf around it's neck. "So, Reshon, what do you say?" "I say, I'm not sure if those pokemon could handle Dratini's weight alone," Reshon remarks with a very serious tone! "Hmm, don't let their size fool you, Reshon," beamed Norman," my Butterfree are really strong!" "O.k., if you say so," Reshon said reluctantly as she called back a not so happy Dratini, and approached the purple butterfree. "Reshon, just have my butterfree lay on it's belly and carefully set both of your feet on it's back," instructed Norman," and be carefully not to step on it's wings." Reshon carefully followed his instruction and off they flew. Reshon was riding on the purple butterfree, while Norman was riding on the blue butterfree, and they were both heading for Pallet Town and Professor Oak.

Meanwhile, a little bit above them, someone or something was watching the pair as they flew away with bad intention in mind for the both of them. But for now, it was content with only watching the duo and waiting!

Day 4…10:00a.m at Pallet Town

"Yes, we finally made it," shouted Norman to a very exhausted Reshon! Reshon, who had spent this entire trip trying her best to not fall off the Butterfree she had been standing on for 5 hours yelled back," Thank goodness!" "If I would have had to stand on this Butterfree's back another minute; I swear you would of have had to scrape me off the ground!" "Norman began to laugh," You're not out of the woods yet!" " I can't wait to see you land!" "Take us down, Breeze and Flutter, and with these words both butterfree started to descend toward the ground." Reshon who was barely able to stay on when they was flying straight wasn't prepared for when the butterfree back winged when they was inches from the ground. She slipped off of the butterfree and hit her bottom on the ground really hard. "Ouch, you could of warned me," she hissed as Norman leaned forward so not to lose his balance on the butterfree and gracefully leaped off the Butterfree's back to the grass. "Maybe you should've asked," he mockly replied. "Ok, I have had enough!" Reshon yelled," you and me a pokemon battle, now!" "Fine, you're going to lose," Norman replied cockily," I bet you don't even know a single one of your Dratini's moves!" "Shut up, and call out your pokemon," sneered Reshon! "Ok, Flutter, Breeze return," commended Norman as he sucked his two butterfrees back inside their pokeballs," I choose you Marril!" Norman threw out his pokeball, which open to reveal a blue pokemon that looked like an overweight pikachu with a bubble on it's tail. " Dratini," Reshon yelled as she threw out her golden pokeball," I choose you!" Suddenly, the black serpent like creature appeared by her side. "Oh, before this battle begins I want you to know one thing, Reshon," smiled Norman," normally Dratini are blue not black." Reshon looked down at her Dratini, and yelled," So what?" "That means your Dratini is a freak of nature," he laughed!" "That enough, " Reshon yelled back," Dratini use your wrap attack!" The small black pokemon immediately jumped at the water rat, and wrap it serpent like body around it and began to squeeze the living daylights out of it. "Huh, it seems that you do know at least one of its moves," remarked Norman," Marril, use Body Slam!" Marril jump high into the air with Dratini still wrap around its body! Its plan was to smash Dratini into the ground below, but just as it was about to hit the ground; the pokemon around it vanished. Marril hit the ground with its belly and quickly bounded back up, and start to look around confused. That when its trainer Norman yelled loudly," Look out!" But the warning was too late and Marril was slam in the back by Dratini. The force of the blow sent Marril right into a tree ending the battle. "How in the world?" "Dratini don't learn teleport normally, unless you used a TM on it," Norman said looking shock! "Nope, my freak learned that all by herself without the use of a TM," smiled Reshon," isn't that right, Dratini?" "Dratini," it declared with pride! "And you knew it's moves, I thought you said you had just got it," stammered Norman! "Well, that my little secret, Norman." "So, where is Professor Oak's place," she asked? Norman turns and points to a building beside her and then heads to his pokemon's side. "Thanks a lot, Norman," she yells and then hurries inside the building with Dratini crawling beside her. "Marril, that girl is something else," Norman says as he pats his pokemon on the head, and then recalls it. "Reshon, wait for me," he cries as he follow her.
