Episode 50:
The End of the World

“My lord, the probe is operating at almost 80% now. We will be able to transport our people down to the planet by tomorrow morning.”

“Excellent. See that our agents see to it that Giovanni doesn’t interfere any further.”

“Yes my lord.”

Back on the planet, Icy and Sara finally came to. “Owww... my head.” They jumped to their feet. Icy unlocked the door and found himself face to face with three Mews. “Ummm, hello?”

“Come with us pikachu.” Icy and Sara exchanged strange glances. “Let’s go! NOW!” They went with the Mews. In the lobby, Mews had cornered all the trainers. They had taken over the entire complex. “Do not worry about them, just keep moving.” They led them outside. “We are in position.” They were teleported onto the Mew starship.

“Where are we? What is this place?” Icy and Sara looked around the ship filled with Mews. One walked up to them.

“Come with me please.” They followed the Mew to another section of the ship. “The emperor doesn’t want you to be in the way.”

“Who’s the emperor?”

“You don’t need to know that. Now get into the cell.”

“Wait. Come back here.” The Mew hissed at him and Icy jumped back. For a second, fear gripped him. His pikachu senses were coming out more. Sara backed away as well.

“Icy... What are we going to do? I’m scared.” A guard took its post outside the cell. In his hand was a strange weapon. Sara started crying.

“Sara... Don’t worry. I’ll find a way to get out of here.” Suddenly it clicked in his mind. “Wait a sec. I can teleport us both out of the cell. When I do, electrocute the guard and take his weapon.” Sara nodded.

Back on the main bridge. “Activate now.”

Icy attempted to teleport but found himself unable to. “What, what happened?”

“He’s contained my lord.”

“I can’t teleport. Something is prevent me from using my psychic powers.” The Mew guard laughed at him.

“Hahaha... nice try rat. You know, when the Mew army invades earth, I think the rat population will the first to go.”

“Why?”

“Because.”

“That’s not an answer.”

“Fine. We are the master race. Do you see any other pokémon who can build space ships? No.”

“But that’s not a valid reason.”

“Too bad. Now get back from the door.”

“Let us out. You can’t keep us in here forever. I’m warning you.”

The Mew laughed. “In case you haven’t figured it out yet, pikabrains, our emperor has foreseen your every move. There is no escape from us. Doomsday will continue as scheduled.” The Mew went back to its post. Icy sat on the floor with Sara.

“This isn’t good. There’s nothing we can do without the emperor Mew knowing it before we even think of it.” Sara sighed and sat down with Icy.

A few hours passed. Finally, a cloaked figure walked up the cell. His hand glowed and the guard flew into a wall, knocking it out. “Hurry, there isn’t much time.” He unlocked the cell door. An alarm sounded. “Crap, you must hurry. Good luck.” The strange person ran off as quickly as he’d appeared.

“This is why I hate my life. C’mon Sara. Let’s find a way outta here.” Icy and Sara ran toward the front of the ship.

“Hey, how did you get out.” Two mew guards pointed their weapons at Icy and Sara. “Put your hands in the air now.”

“Ok.” Icy sneered as they walked closer.

“What? What’s so funny?” Sara was laughing for some odd reason. “Stop that! Stop laughing at me. Stop it! Stop it!” The mew was having a nervous breakdown.

“He’s so cute with that gun. But he’s even cuter now,” Sara said still giggling.

“Why did you make fun of him? You should be kinder to others,” the other guard said.

“You aren’t.”

“Mews don’t have to be. We’re the master pokémon race.”

“Whatever.” Icy shocked the Mew and Sara did the same. He fell over and Icy continued on his way with Sara close behind. She giggled one last time before leaving the corridor.

“My lord, the pikachus are heading this way. The timeline is at 20%. The Doomsday device isn’t going to work with these low numbers.”

“Seal off the bridge.” Large metal doors closed at the bridge access points.

“There must be some way off this ship.” Mewtwo suddenly appeared in from of Icy. “AGHHHHHH!!!! Not you again. What do you want now?”

“For you to die! These Mews are my ticket for destroying all of humanity once and for all. And I’m not letting you ruin it.” Mewtwo blasted Icy into a nearby wall. Sara watched in horror.

“Noo! Please don’t hurt Icy. Please stop. We only want to go home.”

“I’ll send you both packing.” Mewtwo turned and fired at Sara. Icy finally got up and ran over to Sara. “Humph... This is way too easy. Why couldn’t those Mews take care of you?”

“Cause they’re psychos like you.” Icy grabbed Sara and leaped out of the way as Mewtwo fired another psybeam at him.

“You are no match against me Icy. Come out and fight me.”

“My lord. Psychic battle outside the bridge. It’s the pikachu and Mewtwo.”

“This isn’t supposed to happen. Activate the weapon. Begin the Doomsday Operation NOW!” Just as he finished his sentence, the bridge doors exploded. Icy came flying through the debris with Mewtwo close behind. “No, stop them. You’ll damage the controls.”

“Shut up. I want that pikachu!”

“Yeah, you and everyone else. But I want him the most,” Mewtwo shouted, firing another blast at Icy.

“Whaghhh!” he screamed, just missing the beam. It hit the probe control systems.

“You idiot. Now we’ve lost all contact with the probe. It’s going to crash into the planet. The whole mission is a failure due to your arrogance.”

Mewtwo sneered at the tiny little pink Mew. “Some emperor you are. You should have foreseen this.” With that, Mewtwo fired another blast at the Mew, killing him. “Hmm... That was easy. Now for Icy.” The bridge was now on fire from all the blasts Mewtwo had fired.

“Abandon ship!” one of the Mews cried. They ran to the escape pods but Mewtwo blocked the doorway.

“No one’s going anywhere until I kill Icy. Now where is he?”

“Forget him. The ship’s gonna explode. He will be killed in that. Now let us through.” Mewtwo shook his head. “Fine. Mews, charge!” The few hundred Mews that were on the bridge smashed into Mewtwo and ran to the escape pods. Icy and Sara quickly blended into the crowd. Mewtwo searched the bridge tirelessly for Icy.

“WHERE ARE YOU ICY!!!”

The two pikachus snuck into one of the escape pods and flew away from the ship. “Umm, Icy. Do you know how to fly this thing?”

“No. Why?”

“Because that green stuff it getting bigger and bigger.”

“Ahhhh... duck!”

“Where?”

“No, get down!” He pushed her head down as the escape pod collided with the earth. The two pikachus were tossed and bashed around the pod as it bounced into the air and back down again. After what seemed for an eternity of rolling, they finally came to a stop inside the Viridian Forest.

Meanwhile, back aboard the starship. “D***it! He slipped away from me again. I will find you again Icy. I always do.” Mewtwo teleported off the ship as it blew up. A bright circle lit up the sky for a second as the ship exploded. Giovanni watched in triumph.

“Well, that takes care of those horrible little Mews. And hopefully Mewtwo and Icy.” He sat back in his chair awaiting the next trainer to challenge him.

The Doomsday probe entered the atmosphere and crashed into Mt. Moon. Some Clefairies quickly salvaged the broken components and took them deep into the cave for unknown reasons.

Icy and Sara’s pod opened up and they both rolled out. Icy and Sara were badly bruised. Icy tried getting up but found himself unable to move. Sara was having similar difficulty. They both blacked out as night fell…
