Chapter 34 - Episode 33: Lonely

They leave Celadon City and return back to Lavender Town. As they approach the tower, they are stopped by a Cubone Pokeboy.

Leon: Hey, we kinda of like need you to move.

Cubone Boy: No! No one is entering the tower until Mr. Fuji comes out!

Wart: How about we go in and bring back Mr. Fuji? We need him for something too so how about we work together?

Cubone Boy: No! The nice men in black told me to stay here and not let anyone in until they bring back Mr. Fuji!

Leon: Team Rocket again...Hey kid look at that!

The kid turns and Leon pushes him out of the way and the group runs into the tower.

Cubone: Wait!

They reach the last floor from their previous expedition and are stopped again by the same force.

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

Leon turns on the Silph Scope and reveals the force to be the ghost of a Marowak. Just then, the Cubone Boy catches up to them.

Cubone Boy: Stop! I'm not letting anyone get...trough...

The boy stops and stares at the ghost, a despaired look on his face.

The boy runs to ghost for a hug, tears flooding from his eyes and he stands there feeling the cold, yet warm embrace of his long gone mother.

Leon: Yeah lets just go, we probably shouldn't interrupt this reunion.

They run up the now unblocked stairs to see a few Rockets grunts with Mr. Fuji. They blast through them all to reach the old man at the end.

Wart: Hey, we're here to rescue you.

Leon: And we need you Poke Flute.

Wart: Calm down we'll ask him eventually, he just got kidnapped relax. Mr. Fuji can we take you back home to ask a few questions?

Mr. Fuji: Sure, I'd love to thank you properly.

They leave out the tower to the home of the old man. Before they even sit down, Mr. Fuji hands them the flute.

Mr. Fuji: I heard you talking about it earlier, so take this as a sign of my gratitude. I see your trying to wake up the Snorlax on route 12?

Rai: Yeah, the next gym leader is Koga in Fuchsia City so the only thing blocking us from that is this Snorlax.

Mr. Fuji: Well then, I'm happy to help a new generation of gym challengers reach their goal.

Wart: So Mr. Fuji, I have one question, why did Team Rocket kidnap you and take you into the tower?

Mr. Fuji: Well unfortunately, I used to work with Team Rocket when I still lived on Cinnabar Island as a scientist. They wanted me to return to help them find an experiment I helped create and they tried to scare me by threatening the sacred burial grounds of the Pokemon Tower.

Wart: What was this experiment?

Mr. Fuji: It was a clone of the mystical Pokemon, M-
