[Joe, I hope you're not responding to my last post]
Shuriken saw the poster and jumped onto Smasher's face.
"Cheese's Cripes, what's gotten into you?" Smasher exclaimed as he pried the
Staryu off his face. Then he saw it. The poster for Saffron City's Anime
convention.
"Dear God, no!" Smasher exclaimed further. He lunged upon the poster to get
a better look. "Please tell me it's all ready over!"
No such luck.
Smasher placed his hands on his head, fell to his knees and cried
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
"(What's going on?)" Cliff asked in Clefairese.
"(No time to explain,)" Shuriken explained in Staryu-Speak. "(We have to
keep him out of the bushes so he can't change his clothes!)"
"(How about in here?)" Cliff suggested.
"(Excellent!)" replied Shuriken. They pushed him into the phone booth and
closed the door. "(Wait a minute! Phone booth!?)"
The phone booth exploded leaving behind a huge crater. The smoke cleared
showing a lone figure in a dramatice pose. He had large, spikey hair, a
robotic battle suit and huge cape. He was no longer Smasher. He was....
"Captain Anime-zing!" Captain Anime-zing called out. "Buyer of Japanese
comic-books, videos and other assorted merchandise! The Saffron Convention
Center calls to me like destiny! I must go there, for my giant eyes cannot
stand Earth's midday sun!"
"(Oh, no!)" Shuriken exclaimed. "(If he gets to that convention, he'll
surely buy everything he can and have no money left to pay that pimp you
bought that Victreebel from!)"
"(Oh, sure, now everything's my fault!)" Cliff defended. "(How was I
supposed to know rental Pokemon were so expensive?)"
Cliff and Shuriken grabbed onto Captain Anime-zing's cape and pulled. It was
to no avail, and they were just dragged along.
"(What're we going to do?)" asked Cliff. "(He's too strong!)"
"(I know!)" Shuriken said. He leapt to the Captain's belt and knocked off
three Pokeballs. They opened, revealing Rush the Bilingual Growlithe, Ice
the Cubone and Zubat the... Zubat.
"Hey amigos, whassup?" Rush asked.
"Zubaaaaaat"
"Clefairy fairy clef! Cle ry!"
"Captain Anime-zing?"
"Fairy. Fairy clef clefairy. Clefairy cle!"
"You bought that from a pimp!?"
"CLEFAIRY CLEFAIRY CLEF!"
"BOTH HIS LEGS!? We gotta stop him!"
"Cubone! Cubone-bone!"
They looked around. Surely enough, he was gone.
"Quickly! To the convention center!" announced Rush. "We don't have a moment
to spare! Andele! Andele!"
To be continued...
