The Legend of Frosterpie: Part XVI
Where's Frosterpie
    Last time, our heroes had narrowly managed to take back the discs from Team Rocket and stop them on the Seafoam Islands.  They recovered the final disc, Ice, but now find themselves in the hot zone.  Could this be the end for our team?  Part 16 begins now…

    “No more games you.”
    “Hand over those discs.  I’m so not playing around anymore.  Giovanni’s given us permission to kill if necessary so do as you’re told,” Livy shouted.  She nervously holds the launcher aimed at the group.
    “She doesn’t have the guts to fire that thing,” Lewis whispered to Icy.
    “Even so, she does have it and we are still dead meat should she use it.”
    “There’s gotta be some way out of this,” Nicky said.  He looked out behind Techor and Livy and he could see were rows and rows or Gyarados subs.
    “There are so many,” Meeko shivered.  Her pokémon were afraid too.
    “Icy, what do we do?” Kelly said fearfully.  Her eevees were closely by her side.
    “Yes, I’m scared too Icy,” Sara said.  She cautiously looked at her two pokéballs not wanting Team Rocket to see them.  “I don’t want Aura or Sapphire to get hurt.”
    “Don’t worry, I’ve got a plan.”  Hocus appeared beside him.  “Hocus, I need you to create an illusion.  We need to escape from them.  If we teleport, you’ll probably waste all your energy doing it and we won’t get very far.  We need to buy some time.”
    “Yes master.  I can make us invisible with the help of Lewis’ Alakazam.”
    “Good thinking.  Ok, let’s do it.”
    “Well twerps, have you decided yet?” Livy asked.  No reply.  “Don’t push me, I’m not bluffing.”  Still no response.  Livy aimed the gun at Kelly.  “GIVE ME THE DISCS OR THE LITTLE GIRL DIES!!!”  She again got no response.  They continued to stare back at her and Techor.  “Well then, have it your way.”  She pulled the trigger and the missile flew out and connected with its target.  As the snow settled out, they were all still there.
    “What the…”
    “AGHHHHH, IT’S A TRICK!!!!”  Livy turned to the other agents.  “Spread out and find them NOW!”
    “Hey, we’re tired Livy.”
    “Yea, screw the brats, I was paid to assist you back in the Rock Tunnel.  You already went beyond the contract.”
    Livy motioned to Techor.  “Well then, you should be heading on home them sir.  You are dismissed.”  Techor smiled.
    “It’s about time.”
    Techor smiled again.  “Bon’voyage.”  Techor took out a small remote.  The agent’s eyes widened.
    “Oh sh**!”  {Click}.  The sub exploded into a million pieces along with the agents on board.
    “Now, get your sorry behinds back on this shore and find those blasted kids.  Get those discs!”
    “Yes Livy.”  They quickly fanned out and began searching for the group.

    Back on another side of the island, the group was wondering what the explosion they heard was all about.
    “Nicky!” Kelly shouted when she heard.  She almost flew into his arms.
    [See, you both are…] {Smack}  [Oww…]
    “An explosion.”
    “It must have just been another of Livy’s missiles.  Maybe they haven’t figured it out yet.”
    Suddenly, a beam hit close to Ivysore.  [Aghh!  I’m under attack!]
    “Great, finally someone will get rid of him.”
    “Nicky!”
    “Oh, sorry Kelly.  I didn’t mean it.”
    “It’s ok Nicky.  Ivysore, get over here.  Team Rocket must have found us.”
    “Darn right we did.”
    “And this time you won’t escape.”  Techor threw two pokéballs at the group.  Out came Nidoking and Muk.  “Battle time!”
    “You kids have reached the end of the line.  Pokémon go!”  Livy released her Nidoqueen and Venomoth.
    “Darnit.  Nicky, protect Kelly and Meeko.”
    “No Icy,” Meeko said.
    “Meeko, they will hurt you.”
    “That doesn’t matter.  If I’m gonna become a pokémon master, I gotta defend my pokémon from crooks like these guys.”
    “Aww, how touching.  Too bad you can’t beat us.”  Venomoth and Nidoqueen began their attack.  Techor’s pokémon attacked as well.
    “Let’s go Buttercup and Hocus!”
    “Alakazam and Pidgeot, we need you too.”
    Nicky took Kelly and guarded her and Sara.  “I’ll protect you two while they take out those creeps.”
    “Venomoth, sleep powder.”
    “Muk, smokescreen.”
    “Pidgeot, use gust to dispel them both!”  Pidgeot flapped its wings hard the dispelled the attacks.
    “Now, run!!!” Icy yelled.  They made a hasty retreat.
    [Huh, but we just started!].
    Meeko ran over to Ivysore.  “Too late for that, let’s move.”
    “No, not this time.”  Livy pulled out a small pistol and fired.  The bullet grazed Meeko’s shoulder.
    “Aghhh!” she screamed.  Her hand was red.  “I…” she fainted.  Ivysore’s eyes began to glow bright red.
    [It’s one thing to screw with me.  But when you screw with my trainer, I will beat the sh** out of you.]  Ivysore took up a fighting position.  He began to collect the sunlight.  [Solar beam attack!]  He fired, aiming for Livy’s gun.  It melted in her hands.
    “Ivysore!  MEEKO!!!”  Sara rushed over to her.
    “S…Sara…”
    “You’ll be ok…  It hit your shoulder.  I can heal you.”  Meeko smiled.
    “Ivysore no.  Look out!”  Icy sensed Techor’s intention.  He pulled out a small rocket launcher, took aim, and fired directly at Ivysore.
    [SAURRRRRR!!!!!!!!]

    The missile exploded.
    Meeko looked up.  “Ivysore, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!”
    “Ahahahahaha,” Livy laughed.  The smoke began to settle.
    [SUAR!!!!!]  He was ok!  Alakazam lowered his barrier attack.  [Thanks for the save, but I’ll get them for this.]
    Meeko looked up.  “Ivysore, be careful.”  Ivysore leapt into the air.  He charged his solar beam again.
    [SOLAR BEAM!!!]  Ivysore blasted Techor and Livy with one shot from his solar beam.  [That’s for Meeko!]
    “Uhhh…  Livy, let’s get out of here.  Regroup.  We can’t beat them now.”
    “What are you saying?”
    “We will be better equipped for victory if we wait Livy.  Besides, they can’t get out of here any time soon.  No boats are coming into port.”
    “Fine, but if they get away, the boss is gonna have your head for this.”

    “Ivysore, what were you thinking back there?” Meeko asked.
    [You were in danger so I came to the rescue.]
    “But you almost got killed.”  Meeko rubbed her eyes.  “I don’t want you to get hurt.”
    [Hey, don’t worry about me.  I’m the SUAR ’member.]
    “{sniff} Uh huh…”
    “Hey guys, let’s try to come up with a way off this island.  Those goons are gonna be back, and I don’t want to have to endure another battle like that.”
    “You’re right Icy.  Something strange is going on here.”  Everyone looked at Lewis.  “Oh, sorry, what I mean is, why are they all the sudden trying to kill us.”
    “I’ve wondered why Team Rocket doesn’t kill everybody,” Nicky said.
    “Giovanni can’t have deaths on his hands.  He may head Team Rocket, but he’s also a high ranking businessman.  The feds can’t touch him for the small crimes, but murder would definitely not go unpunished.”
    “Maybe he’s certain no one will know.  The time they tried to kill us were all in unpopulated areas.  No one would know about it.”
    “That’s true.”
    “Hey, don’t we have all eight discs?” Sara said suddenly.
    “Yes, why?”
    “Well, where’s Frosterpie then?”
    “Hey, that’s a good question.  We do have the discs now, isn’t that all we need.”  They turned to Loki.
    “Discs not all.  Oak know rest.  We go Pallet Town see Oak for rest.  Go now to Pallet.”
    “Umm, anyone understand are that?” Nicky said confused.
    “Yeah, I do.  Loki’s saying we need to see Professor Oak.  He probably knows why we still haven’t found Froserpie.”
    “Yeah, maybe there’s something else in the manuscript we have to do.”
    “Well then, let’s get off this island and back to Pallet Town.”
    “How?  Techor and Livy have the island surrounded with their Gyarados subs.”
    “Hmm, that is a problem.”
    “Not really.”  Icy smiled.  “Cyber can help us here.  I need you now, Cyber!”  Icy opened the ball containing Cyber, Icy’s Porygon.  “Cyber transform into Jet program.”  Cyber glowed and became a jet.  “Ok, here’s how we’ll escape.  In the air.”
    “Awesome thinking Icy.”
    “Nicky.”
    “Huh, what is it?”
    “Your Dewgong, keep it ready.”
    “Sure thing.”
    “Let’s get off this island.”  Everyone got on board Cyber and they took off.

    “Look!”
    “Get them!!!” Livy shouted.  The agents started to open fire on Cyber.
    “Icy, there’s too many of them.  They might hit Cyber.”
    “Ok, Nicky, have Dewgong use the Ice Disc.”
    “Oh, I get it.”  Nicky hands Dewgong the disc.  “Dewgong, use the disc and fire your blizzard attack at those agents on the ground.”
    “DEWW-GONG!!!!”  The power of the disc combined with Dewgong’s attack freeze-dried Team Rocket and the group was once again safe.
    “We did it!” Kelly and Meeko cheered.
    “Pallet Town, here we come!”
    Our heroes escape Seafoam Island and make their way towards Pallet Town.  Meanwhile, Techor and Livy are thawing out finally.
    Livy glares angrily at the sun.  “This is far from over Icy…”

    After about an hour of flying, Cyber finally lands in Pallet Town just outside Oak’s lab.
    “We made it!” Icy says.
    “Great!  Now Oak can tell us where to find Frosterpie.”
    “I hope so, this adventure is getting to be really dangerous.”
    “I just want to meet this frozen Caterpie!”  Icy grinned.  He was the most anxious of them all to meet it.  “I wonder just how old it really is.”
    “Well, let’s actually go inside rather than waste time talking out here,” Kelly finally said.
    “Oh… right,” they all replied.  They entered Oak’s lab.  “Hello?”
    “Oh, hi there.  Hmm, must have left the door open again, whoops.”
    “You probably should be a little more careful professor.”
    “Never mind that, what brings you back here?  Did you find Frosterpie?”
    “That’s why we’re here.  We have all eight discs, but now where is Frosterpie?”
    “Ah, you got them all.  That leaves just one more thing to do.  Well, actually three.”
    “What?  What do we still need to do?”
    “Well, according to the manuscript, there should be two generators.  Earth, and Ether.”
    “Earth?” Kelly asked.
    “Ether?” asked Meeko.
    “Yes.  The two make up the entire world we live in.  Earth is represented by the ground, air, and life.  The Ether contains elemental properties of life.  Without one or the other, we wouldn’t be here.  Four of the discs belong to the Earth, the other four to the Ether.”
    “Which go with which?”
    “Hmm, it doesn’t say.  My guess is that when you find the generator, it should tell you.”
    “Um, professor?”
    “Yes Nicky.”
    “WHERE ARE THE GENERATORS!!!”
    “Well, you don’t have to yell.  Uh, that’s a very good question.  I don’t know.  The manuscript doesn’t say.”
    “WHAT!!!  HOW CAN IT NOT SAY!!!”  Nicky was all the sudden really upset.
    “Isn’t there some type of clue?”
    “Hmm…”  Oak read over the last few lines of the manuscript again.  “Ah ha!”
    “What, did you find a clue?”
    “No, I found that sandwich I made for lunch finally.”  The group face faults.
    “LOOK FOR THE CLUE NOT YOUR LUNCH!!!”
    “Ok ok…  Can’t a guy eat around here?  Hmm, let’s see.  Ah, perhaps this is a clue.”
    “Where?”
    “It reads, ‘The place that touches all the earth, bring forth the elements of Earth.’”
    “Ok, that makes completely no sense.”
    Kelly started thinking.  “It touches all the earth.  Perhaps they mean that it touches all types of elements of the earth.  You know, the ground, sky, and water.”
    “Oh, I get it.  So the Earth Generator is located someplace where it touches all those things.”
    “Mt. Moon.  I’ve heard tales of explorers finding underground waterways.  And Mt. Moon definitely touches the sky.”
    “That’s it!”  Meeko smiles as she and Kelly congratulate themselves for figuring it all out.
    “Well then, we have no time to lose.”
    “Right, let’s go.”
    “Have a safe trip.”  Oak took his sandwich into the back of the lab and ate lunch.  The group headed for the door.
    “This is it guys.  We’re finally gonna find Frosterpie!”
    “That is great,” said a familiar voice.
    “Too bad you won’t get to keep it,” said another voice.
    Icy and the other froze upon seeing two shiny pistols aimed at their heads.  Techor and Livy had gotten free.
    “I shoulda known you two would do anything to…” {whack}.  Livy smashed the gun against Icy’s head knocking him out and sending his body into Lewis.
    “This isn’t a game anymore.  Now follow us.  No funny business,” she said picking up Sara and Icy.  “Do anything, anything stupid, and pow, I blow their brains out.  Got that?”
    Kelly started to cry a little.  “Please don’t hurt them Livy.”
    “You’re a sweet little girl, it’s a good think the boss only wants Icy and Sara right now.  But you all still have to come with us.”
    “Huh, why just them?”
    “That’s none of your business,” Techor said in reply to Nicky.  “Let’s move it now!”  Techor waved his gun at them to get them to walk.

    Oh dear.  As of heroes are taken prisoner by Techor and Livy, what cruel plans do they have in store for them.  This is really starting to get bad.  The team isn’t getting any edge anymore and it looks like Team Rocket may now know exactly what they need to find Frosterpie.  I just hope they make it out of this alive at the least.  You better not miss Part 17!
