Chereads / Pokemon: Humans And Monsters Alike / Chapter 28 - Episode 27: ???

Chapter 28 - Episode 27: ???

The group passed through route 11 to route 12 and encounter a very BIG problem.

Una: What is that?

Wart: I think it's a Pokemon. It's sleeping.

Otto: It's a Snorlax. We have to go back.

Leon: What, why?

Otto: You can't wake a Snorlax without a Poke Flute.

Ivy: How do we get one?

Otto: I don't know, I used to have one when I was younger but I lost it a very long time ago.

Wart: We should probably just go a different way and if we find a flute we could come back here.

Una: There was a tree near Cerulean City that we could probably use Cut on.

Leon: Then to Cerulean we go!

The group returns to Cerulean City and cut down a tree blocking their path to route 9. Soon, they make it to the entrance of Rock Tunnel and enter the dark cavern. Leon lights the way with his tail and after about an hour of being lost they eventually they make it out to route 10 and soon the noble, yet eerie Lavender Town.

Wart: Let's ask around to see if anyone here have a Poke Flute.

They start asking around town but nothing, but eventually Leon ask a small girl the question.

Leon: Hey, do you know what a Poke Flute is?

Girl: Mhm, Mr. Fuji has one.

Leon: Really? Where is he?

Girl: He's in the tower. He's been in it for a long time.

Leon: Thank you, you've really helped us. Guys, lets go to the tower!

Wart: Why?

Leon: This girl told me someone in the tower has one.

Ivy: What girl?

Leon: This one.

He turned around to see the girl gone, without even a single sound.

Leon: Nevermind... Whatever, lets just go to the tower.

They enter the tower, climbing the floors and fighting off the ghost Pokemon until they are closed from reaching the top floor due to a mysterious force.

Leon: Hold on, I'll try to break through!

He tries to charge at the invisible barrier but it does nothing and is knocked away.

???: Begone... Intruders...

Leon: What the...

Grunt: Hey!

Before they could process the voice they just heard, a Team Rocket Grunt reaches the floor they're on.

Grunt: This tower is under Team Rockets control, get out before you feel the wrath of the 24th strongest Team Rocket Gru-

???: Begone... Intruders...

The group and the grunt fall asleep and wake up outside of the tower.

Grunt: How did they get up there when I can't?

Leon: Who get where?

Grunt: U-um no one, no one at al-

Leon spits an Ember at his face, purposely missing him to intimidate him.

Grunt: Okay, okay, there are more Grunts on the top floor of the tower! Though they shouldn't have been able to get up there with that thing blocking there, even with a Silph Scope!

Wart: A Silph Scope?

Grunt: It an item to make the invisible visible.

Leon: Hmmm, where can we get one of these?

Episode End.
