 Truf
rode on his bike on Route 4, annoyed. The sun was
beginning to set. Ardus and Cerrie were no where to be
seen and his ordeal at Mount Moon could not be forgotten.
"I nerve of that Reve!" he said out loud.
"How could I let her beat me?" The road ahead
was quiet and serene and Truf's mind wandered. I wonder
if Charmander and Pikachu are awake yet, he thought. He
called them out, but they were still sleeping. Gary and
his friends must be at Saffron City by now. "If only
I hadn't fallen for his trick," he said.A few
months ago
Truf
woke up and looked at the time. It was 3:00AM. "I
can't sleep," he said to himself. His alarm clock
had not gone off yet. "I might as well go back to
sleep." The phone rang an hour later. Truf woke up.
"Who could it be so early in the morning," he
said while getting up to answer the phone. "It's me,
Artifice," said the girl on the other line. "Hi
Artifice! Why are you calling me so early in the
morning?" asked Truf. "I need your help,"
she replied. "What's the matter," Truf asked
her. "I'm in trouble," she replied. Truf looked
worried. "What can I do to help," he asked.
"Meet me outside of Jake's house," she replied.
She hung up.
Truf
was worried about Artifice. He had meet her just two
weeks ago, and something always seemed to be going on
with her. Truf quietly put on his clothes and tiptoed out
of the house. He didn't want to wake his mother. He got
on his bike and rode to Jake's house. It was dark and he
couldn't see. Truf tripped over a rock. "What is
this," he said wiping off some stuff from his face.
It was mud. He got up and got back on his bike. After 10
minutes, he reached Jake's house. The light in the living
room was on. He knocked on the door. The door opened. It
was Jake.
"Come
in," he said. Jake was one of Gary's friends.
Artifice was sitting on the couch. "What happened to
you," she asked. "I had a little accident on
the way here," he replied. Artifice laughed.
"Come, sit here," she said while motioning to
him. Truf sat down. "We need your help," said
Jake. "What's the matter, aren't you supposed to be
resting for the big day, tomorrow, Jake" asked Truf.
"And Artifice, aren't you supposed to be Viridian
City for your big day?" The big day was the day they
got their first pokemon and trainer's license. "We
have a problem, someone is going to rob the pokemon
center at Cerulean City. "We have to go there and
stop them," said Artifice. "Why don't you call
the cops," asked Truf. "We can't or Artifice
will be hurt," said Jake. "If they found out
that she called the cops, they'd kill her."
"Who are they," asked Truf. "There's no
time to explain," Jake said while grabbing Truf and
practically dragging him out the door. Artifice followed
them.
"Get
on my Spearow," said Artifice. "Hey, where did
you get a Spearow," asked Truf. "A friend of
mine gave it to me," she replied. In 15 minutes,
they were there. The pokemon center looked like any other
pokemon center. The gates were closed. "How, the
heck is anyone going to get in there," asked Truf.
"Like this," said Artifice while taking some
lockpicks out of her pocket.
Present Time
Truf tripped over a rock bringing him out from the
flashback. "This brings back memories," he
said.
