The Legend of Frosterpie — Part XVIII - The Earth Generator

Episode 90

  As Techor and Livy continued to lead out heroes towards Mt. Moon, Icy had already begun working on a plan.
  “Ok Loki, give it all you got.” Loki sent out a distress call to Prof. Oak. With a little luck, their call would be answered.
  “Mt. Moon dead ahead sir.”
  “You are a very observant young lad. Why don’t you go into town and observe the people there. You’re fired!” Techor was at a low tolerance right now. The ex-agent stormed off as if his mother just told him he couldn’t stay up playing video games.
  “Lead us to the generator Icy.”
  “No funny stuff either.” Techor nudged his gun against Kelly. Why her, Icy thought.

  They went into the cave. Icy didn’t know anymore than Team Rocket as to where the generator was located. Techor trained his gun on Kelly still while Livy escorted Icy and the others deeper into the caves.
  “Where is the generator Icy?”
  “For the last time, I don’t know. I’m telling the truth. Prof. Oak didn’t tell us the location. It’s not on the manuscript.”
  “Listen Icy, I am so not in the mood for games. We have been tracking you twerps done for the past month. I don’t like not getting results. You better start remembering where that generator is.”
  “Master,” Hocus said telepathically.
  “What?”
  “I’m detecting a cavern where we could lose them. Take them a few more feet to the left. The floor is soft so be careful. Loki has already taken up a position on the other side to stop them from following.”
  “Great.”
  “Well Icy. Don’t make poor Kelly suffer from your ignorance.”
  “It’s this way,” Icy replied in a reluctant voice.
  “That’s better.” Icy motioned to Kelly to run ahead a little more. They got across to the cavern.
  “Kelly run!” She darted into the cavern pushing Techor down.
  “Hey you brat, get back here.”
  “Loki, explosion now!” Loki caused the cavern to cave-in so Techor and Livy could no longer follow them.
  “D*** that Pikachu. They had been plotting this all along I bet.”
  “This isn’t over yet Livy. Those kids have nowhere to go. Not only that, but I still… huh…”
  “Techor? You still what?”
  “Oh no. Those d*** kids stole back the discs and pokéballs.”
  “AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!”

  “Do you think they are still following us?” Kelly asked.
  “No, that cave-in will keep them busy for a long time.”
  “We better find that generator Icy.”
  “Right.”
  They continued traveling deeper and deeper into the earth. “How much further?” Meeko whined.
  “How would he know Meeko,” Lewis said sternly. Nerves were becoming frail.
  “Hey leave her alone Lewis. Let’s work together or we’ll die down here.”
  “Hocus, are you detecting anything?”
  “I think so. Something is giving off a faint signal, but it’s originating further down in the cavern.”
  “Deeper still???”

Meanwhile…

  “The weapon is almost ready to go online sir.”
  “Very good captain. Soon, our moment of revenge will be at hand. Earth shall belong to us.”

Back to our heroes…

  After what seemed like hours, Kelly collapsed. “I can’t go any further Icy.”
  Nicky ran to her aid. “I’ll carry you Kelly.” He smiled when she did.
  [Aww, look at the two lo…] {SMACK}
  “Shut up you!” Nicky said whacking Ivysore with his foot.
  They continued to go on. “Master, I’m getting strong readings from behind this wall.”
  “Really? Hey, a dead end.” They were surrounded by rock everywhere.
  “Umm, guys, what happened to the path we just came from,” Lewis asked.
  “Oh my Goddish, it’s vanished.”
  “We’re gonna die!” Meeko cried. Sara started crying too, followed by Kelly.
  “Girls girls, please. We aren’t gonna die…” Icy was interrupted by the sound of an explosion further up in the cave. “Team Rocket. They must have blasted through the rocks. They’ll be here soon.” Icy looked at the wall Hocus was talking about. Strange symbols were inscribed on it.
  “Hey look, pokémon graffiti.”
  “No, it’s a code or something.” Icy looked around. “Aha!” He pushed on a spot in the wall. It vanished displaying a metal room.
  “Woo cool!”
  “The Earth Generator!”

  “They must have gone down this cavern.”
  “Blast those kids. When I get my hands on them.” Techor and Livy continued down the path Icy and the others had taken.

  “How do you think it works?” Sara asked Icy. He looked over the ancient machine.
  “It has four circles, they must be for the discs.”
  “But which discs go in them.” Lewis asked. Icy read the inscriptions and began placing the Water, Air, Grass, and Rock Discs on the alter of the device.
  “There,” he said. The device began to hum.

  “Those kids must be all the way deep inside. Have the backup units seal off the caves until we return. If there’s a second way out from where they went, our blockade will stop them from escaping.”
  “Brilliant plan Livy. Now let’s go strangle that Pikachu and his friends.”

  “Icy look.” Sara pointed to the screen above the generator.
  “Hey look.” An Alakazam appeared on the screen. It had very strange markings on it.
  “Greetings creatures from the future. If you are receiving this message, you have heard about of lost member, Frosterpie. Frosterpie was a young Caterpie in our village. He played well with the other members and was always in a cheery mood. But one day, he was going out for food and never returned. When an elder found the young Caterpie, his body had been turned to ice. No one in our group knew how to revive our friend so we hid his frozen body in The Temple of Ice. The location was to be kept a secret so that his slumber would remain uninterrupted until some future race could create technology to save him. Be warned, of one who is pure in heart can willfully claim Frosterpie, for his spirit will still have the power to choose his new friends and companion.
  My civilization was once great. No doubt we are lost by this time. We thrived off of the land and the elements. We praised the Earth and the Ether. Two special generators were created before the incident. Afterwards, my message was encrypted into them so that a future adventurer would save young Frosterpie. You still have a long distance to go my friend. The second of the two generators is located on an island covered by ice. I was able to give this generator a teleportation charge to make your trip an easier one. Please wait for teleportation to occur. I wish you luck in freeing my friend and hope that you will respect the wishes of my ancient civilization. I leave you now…”
  The image faded away. “That was too cool.”
  “Well, the researchers were right when they said Alakazams were the smartest of all pokémon. It ruled a pokémon society at one time.”
  On the other side of the metal door now dividing the chamber from the cavern, Techor and Livy heard everything.
  “An island covered by ice?”
  “Seafoam Islands.”
  “There’s no way to be teleported there, so lets book it. We’ll arrive there near the same time. Then we can steal those discs and location Frosterpie ourselves.”
  “Right Livy.”
  The group stood still as the room lit up. Within seconds, the temperature felt like it had dropped nearly 20 degrees. “We must be there. Let’s find that Ether Generator.”
