-The Lighthouse Of Danger, Part I-Episode 09
"How close are you to the lighthouse," Blade heard through the receiver in
his ear.
"Close enough," Blade said as began to look around him. It began to rain
and darkness was consuming the area. Blade and Stephon walked out of the
woods and saw Bill's lighthouse, which was being heavily guarded by Team
Rocket.
"How many are there?" Stephon asked as he watched the forest.
"I count four guarding the front door, and I see three on the roof. Its too
dark to see though, their may be more," Blade said as he unsheathed his
swords, "Get down, someone's coming." A figure ran towards Blade, until it
finally emerged from the darkness.
"You've got to help me!" the man said. His voice was scared and very tired.
"I'm a friend of Bill's," he said, "Just a little while ago, Team Rocket
busted into his lighthouse and tied us both up. They then began to search
the place. As they were looking, Bill distracted them so that I could get
away."
"Alright," Blade said to the man, "I was sent here to rescue Bill. Stephon,
take this man to the Cerulean City Pokemon Center while I go rescue Bill."
Stephon nodded his head and grabbed the man's arm, leading him towards
Cerulean City.
"Wait!" the man shouted, "take this." The man handed Blade a Pokeball.
"It's an Abra, you can keep it," he said as he and Stephon walked into the
darkness. Blade put the Pokeball away and took out his night-vision
goggles. He confirmed that their were four men standing by the front door.
With his swords unsheathed, he ran towards the lighthouse. It was too dark
for Team Rocket to see properly, so they never saw him coming. Once Blade
figured that they'd be able to see him, he stopped and kneeled on the
ground. He knew that he had to get rid of them without them alerting anyone
inside. He had only one idea to get them away from their post.
"All's clear," one of the men yelled.
"Clefairy," said the Clefairy that hopped by them with a Moon Stone in its h
and.
"Hey, that's a Clefairy!" yelled one of the men, "And it's got the Moon
Stone!" The four men ran after the Clefairy, which disappeared into the
darkness. The four men ran after Clefairy, but were stopped by Blade, who
easily defeated them. He recalled his Clefairy, and ran towards the door of
the lighthouse.
"I can't just go right through the front door," Blade said to himself. He
then had an idea and released his Pidgey.
"Pidgey, fly up to the top of the lighthouse and defeat those guards," Blade
said as he looked up, "there are only three of them." Pidgey flew up to the
top and after a few minutes, flew back down. Blade, with his swords still
unsheathed, looked to the top. He began to stick his swords into the side
of the lighthouse and climb up. He reached the top and saw the three Team
Rocket members laying on the floor unconscious. He opened the door at the
top and began to slowly walk down the stairs. He walked all the way down
the stairs and saw Bill, surrounded by many members of Team Rocket. Blade
ran to a nearby wall where he hid. He stuck his head out from behind the
wall and saw Carmen standing right behind Bill with a gun to his head.
"It is almost time," said a familiar voice standing in a shadow, "It is
almost time to destroy this lighthouse." The man came out of the shadows
and stood alongside Carmen. He was wearing a Team Rocket uniform, and his
gloves were stained with blood. As the man stood next to Carmen, Blade
recognized that he was none other than Stephon.
