(Author's Rantings)------------------------------------------- Not much to this story, just finishing up Delet's story. (Beginning of Story)------------------------------------------ Episode Eight: The Legend of the Delet Narrator: It's time now for another exciting and hilarious episode of Pokémon! Last time, you remember, Teem befriended an orphaned legendary pokémon: A Delet! (Flashback to Teem feeding Delet.) Let's catch up on what everyone's doing now! (The scene opens on our cast in a pokémon center. Jessie and Ash are bandaged-up after their fight [their clothes are suddenly better too, somehow, unless they packed extras], and everyone is getting their pokémon healed after their fight with Delet.) Nurse Joy: (Looks out at them.) Just a little longer, your pokémon really took a beating... Ash: Wow, that's one strong little pokémon you've got there, Teem! Wanna' trade? Teem: (Hugs Delet.) No way! She's my little baby now! Delet: Leeeet! ^_^ (Smiles and hugs Teem back. All the Rockets yell and punch him.) Abra: Of COURSE you want to trade, Teem! Teem: (Whines.) Whyyyyy? Jessie: Because Ash will trade Pikachu for her! ^_^ Pikachu: (Sweatdrop.) Pika!?! Ash: No I won't! I meant one of my other pokémon, like Muk or Krabby! Pikachu: (Sigh of relief.) Pikaaaa... ^_^; (All of the Rockets growl to themselves. Alex continues hit- ting Teem purely for entertainment purposes.) Teem: Ow! Stop! Quit it, Alex! That hurts! > <; (Delet looks angry and snarls at Alex.) Delet: Del del DELET!!! (She leaps up and thundershocks Alex, who falls over twitching.) Misty: Delet sure doesn't like your hurting her trainer. Jolteon: (Hmmph.) Trainers, who needs 'em? Meowth: I hea' ya'! James: Hmm... Delet's pretty strong too! Togepi: (Whispering to Pikachu.) Togep, plgi, togeplgli? {If they wanted Delet so much, then why did they want to trade her for you?} Pikachu: (Whispers to Togepi.) Pikacha, pi, pikachu. {It's called a "plot hole," Togepi, you'll get the hang of it soon enough.} Alex: (Keeps twitching.) AAaaaaaAAaahh... Abra: (Sits down and holds Alex's hand.) Alex? Are you al- right? (Everyone looks suspiciously at her.) Abra: Uh... ¬ ¬; (Her eyes stretch and everything, then her face turns red and she smacks Alex.) BECAUSE IF YOU'RE FAKING IT, I'LL TELL THE BOSS THAT YOU'RE GOOFING OFF!!! Alex: (Hops up.) I'm okay! o O; (Sweatdrop.) Brock: (Thinking a bit.) Hmm... I always thought the Delet was just a legend... Ash, Misty, James, and Jessie: ::blinkblink:: Yeah... Pikachu: (Whispering again.) Pi, pika. {See, this is kind of like a plot hole, the writer just remembered something and he's trying to bring it up all of a sudden.} Togepi: BREEE!! {I'm confused!} > <; James: That means... Abra: ...it must be... Jessie: ...SUPER RARE!!! Alex: We'll be rich! $_$ (They all hug each other.) Brock: Oh brother... ¬ ¬; Pikachu: Pika... ¬ ¬; Togepi: Gepi... ¬ ¬; Ash: I still say I've never heard of a "Delet Legend"... Misty: If you don't believe us, then why not talk to Prof. Oak about it? Ash: Alright! I will! Just to prove YOU'RE wrong, Misty! Nyeah! (He flips her nose and walks to a videophone.) Misty: (Sticks her tongue out at him.) "Nyeah!" Yourself, Mr. Pokémon Master! (Everyone sighs.) Teem: (Teasing voice.) Awwww!!! How cute! A love-spat! Hehehe!!! Jolteon and Meowth: Oh brudda'... Prof. Oak: (On the phone, of course.) Hello? Oh, hello, Ash! How are you? Ash: I'm fine, Prof. Oak! Thanks for asking! But uh... I found a... (Teem interrupts him with a cough.) Eh... I mean, a FRIEND of mine found a weird pokémon and we wanted to know what it was. Prof. Oak: Why of course, Ash. Show it to me... (Ash grabs Teem [holding Delet] and swings him in front of the phone.) Teem: ACK! O o; Delet: Del! O o; (Waves her little arms.) Prof. Oak: ::blinkblink:: Looks like an American Saiyan to me... and a Rocket at that! Ash! Have you been working for that gang? Ash: Eh... No, sir, we've just got quite a few more members on our tails, currently... Prof. Oak: More than Jessie and James? Oh dear! You know... (He looks around to see if they're listening.) I really don't think those two are that mean... They seem pretty nice at times. James: What? Jessie: We're bad to the core, Mr. Oak! (Angrily.) Oak: Oh, pipe down, you two lovebirds... (Jessie and James blush at "Lovebirds" and giggle at each other, Abra and Alex hose them down [with a real hose!].) Ash: But anyway, sir, we know what he is. We want to know what it is that he's holding! (Teem holds up Delet to the screen. She giggles and waves to Prof. Oak.) Oak: My goodness! ::blinkblink:: It looks like a... a... a Delet! I always thought that legend was fake! Misty: See? Nyeah! Oak: Oh, hi, Misty! Misty: Hello, Professor! ^_^ (She waves.) Ash: (Snarls at Misty, then looks back to Oak.) So what can you tell us about it? Oak: I just know the legend, but not much about it. I'm sure Brock and Misty know more about it. Jessie: OOH! OOH! Me too! I know ALL about urban legends! ^_^ (Jessie holds up her hand excitedly.) Oak: Er... and Jessie too... Jessie: (Giggles like a little girl.) Oh, have any of you heard about the M&M colors? And Surge? Everyone: YES! Jessie: Darn. ¬ ¬; Oak: (Nods reassuringly [or for whatever reason animé people nod so often.]) Well, anyway, if your friend there has one, I'd consider him very lucky! (He smiles.) Teem: (Smiles, blinks stupidly, and starts singing.) "And people always tell me I'm the lucky one..." (Chibi-face.) Alex: SHUTUP!!! Teem: MAKE ME!!! (Delet jumps in front of Alex and her eyes turn red.) Alex: Eh... n-nevermind... (He backs away, sweating.) Oak: I'd talk to you longer, Ash, but I've got a TV dinner in the microwave and... (Ding.) OH! There it is now! See you later! (He hangs up.) Ash: Alright, well, I'd better call Mom as well... anyone else want to call home first? Abra: Nope. Alex: Nahhhh... (Shakes his head.) Brock: Dad's probably busy with my siblings... James: Home? My parents would track me down! O o; Jessie: My parents... died when I was little... (She looks down sadly and James hugs her. Alex nudges him.) Teem: Home? ::blinkblink:: Misty: ICK! I'm not talking to my sisters! > <; Ash: (Shrugs.) Okay... (Dials his phone number.) Mrs. Ketchum: Konnichiwa! ^_^ This is the Ketchum residence! Ash: Hi, Mom! ^_^ Mrs. Ketchum: Ash! Oh! Hello, honey, how are you? (Everyone giggles a little.) Ash: (Blushing.) Erm... I'm fine, Mom, but uh... my friends are all around and... Mrs. Ketchum: (Smiles tearfully.) Oh (She giggles.), I'm sorry, you're growing up so fast, Ash! (Everyone giggles again and Ash pulls his hat over his eyes.) Ash: Thanks, Mom... Mrs. Ketchum: By the way, you look a little roughed-up, are you okay? Ash: Yes, Mom, Jessie and I got in a little fight and... Mrs. Ketchum: Ash! Were you hitting a girl? Ash: UH... yes... (He looks down.) Mrs. Ketchum: I'm ashamed in you, Ash! Apologize to her right now! Ash: I'm sorry, Jessie... Mrs. Ketchum: Good! Ash: Um... Mom, the reason I called... Um... Well, I wanted to know how Teem could tell how his pokémon was a girl and no one would tell me and Brock told me ask you and... well, how do you tell? Mrs. Ketchum: Um... well, I'll tell you, but one little thing, first... (She whispers.) Are you changing your underwear every day? Ash: (Squeaks.) Yes, ma'am... (Everyone bursts into laughter.) Misty: (Giggling.) You liar!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! Ash: How do you know? > <; Mrs. Ketchum: - O Yes, young lady, how DO you know? Misty: I was only joking! =O o;= (Everyone bursts into laughter again.) Narrator: HAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh, sorry, hehe, that was funny... heh... uh... (Giggle.) Tune in next time for the next... (Snort.) hilarious episode of... (Giggle.) POKéMON!!! HAAAAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! > <; Misty: Okay, you can shut up now... (Her forehead turns blue.) The End
