Jacob's Omanyte Adventures - Chapter 1 Part 5

"A Bump on the Noggin"
The light had just
begun to shine upon the Viridian Forest when Tim had stopped and though about
the fact that Jacob was not in eyesight behind him. Tim asked all three Pokemon
following him, "Where is Jacob!? What happened?! Wasn't he following you
guys
?" The three Pokemon shook their heads. Lickitung's face then lit
up! He whispered something in secret Pokemon language to Omanyte who began
to gurgle in laughter. Tim looked perplexed at them as they were devising
a plan. Lickitung walked in front of Nidoran who was similarly wondering
what was going on. Omanyte sneaked up behind him. Lickitung pushed Nidoran's
head down to the ground and Omanyte gave Nidoran a good push. Nidoran got
the picture and began to sniff the ground in search of Jacob. Lickitung gave
a bow to Tim and they started to laugh.
Nidoran continued to sniff
the forest area with Tim, Omanyte, and Lickitung following closely behind.
Nidoran made some sharp turn which Tim didn't remember making any of during
his run earlier. Finally Nidoran's nose started to flare up more. He began
to run towards the scent he smelled. Tim picked up his speed even though
his legs were still tired from the initial run. Nidoran finally found Jacob's
body.
Jacob was still knocked
out from hitting his head on the metallic box after he tripped over a clump
of rocks. However Nidoran realized this wasn't just a bunch rocks
it
was a sleeping Pokemon! Mark buzzed in, "Hey! Is someone there?" Nidoran
was frightened by the voice, which he forgot belonged to Mark. Nidoran ran
back towards Tim when he came back into view. Tim saw Jacob's unconscious
body and bent down towards it. Mark buzzed, "Tim its good to see you! Let
Jacob rest for a moment. That Pokemon over there is a level 12 Sandshrew
- He burrows deep underground in arid locations far from water and only emerges
to hunt for food. It is rather strange to see Sandshrews in this part of
the world. I guess he must've traveled far from home and fell asleep listening
to the sounds Viridian Forest. In fact, Sandshrews usually stay up late and
go to sleep just before dawn breaks."
Tim was getting a headache
and shouted, "Information overload!!" Tim then said, "Well Mark what should
I do?" Mark buzzed, "Since he is sleeping
I think you have a good chance
to catch him, if you want to that is." Tim jumped up with a PokeBall in hand
and smiled, "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!" Tim crossed his fingers and threw a PokeBall
at the sleeping Sandshrew. The ball shook quite a few times, but
Sandshrew
was caught! Mark buzzed, "Congratulations Mr. Tim on catching your very first
wild Pokemon!" Tim opened his PokeBall to meet his new Pokemon. He welcomed,
"Hey wake up! Coochie coochie coo!" Sandshrew opened his eyes and was startled
by his new master. Tim comforted him, "Its ok, don't worry." Tim wondered,
"Mark can you please give me stats for my new Pokemon?" Mark buzzed, "Sure,
right away, here is all the information I know about this Sandshrew:

Also for some reason this particular Pokemon seems to be extremely
shy
maybe some social issue it had in its old home community.
Tim said, "Hmmm, that's
strange. Anyway what happened to Jacob?" Mark replied, "Well it was dark
and I suppose that Jacob didn't see the Sandshrew and tripped over him then
bumped his head on that box over there." Tim glanced at the box and asked,
"What is this weird thing? Mark buzzed, "I believe it is a technical machine.
I think it may be #14 - Blizzard. I can only be sure after the machine is
started up." Tim said as he put the machine in Jacob's backpack, " I think
Jacob deserves it
he did bump his noggin on it."
Omanyte tried to squirt
Jacob with some water but it didn't wake him up. Tim said, "Well I guess
we need to drag him back to Viridian City to the hospital there." Tim commanded
Lickitung to grab Jacob's left foot as Tim would take the right. Sandshrew
burrowed underground under Jacob to prop him up so that it would be easier
to carry him. Meanwhile Nidoran and Omanyte "pretended" to push Jacob ahead.
They finally worked their way back to Viridian City.
Tim ordered the group
to wait there as he would get a nurse and Chanseys to come help bring him
to the hospital. He finally cam back a few minutes lately with a nurse and
a group of four Chanseys who Carried him away on a stretcher. Tim explained
the whole situation to the nurse so that she would be able to prepare a cure
for Jacob. When they got to the hospital the nurse stuck a needle into Jacob
and put "Noggin' Juice" into his blood. Jacob woke up startled and said,
"What happened?" And everyone started to laugh. |
