[So, Misty was just getting back to the Cerulean Gym, presiding over as the Gym Leader. She had battled a few trainers before stopping for the night and sleeping.

Then she ended up here... wherever that was. Well, time to use the Vine... whatever that was too! A young red-haired girl appears on the mirror, back in her regular clothes with her backpack, an Azurill cradled in one arm, and her pink Pokegear in the other, which she quickly turns off with a sigh.]

I can't get in touch with my sisters... They'll never be able to take care of the gym without me!

[Turns attention towards mirror, still vaguely irritated.]

Hey, a weird-looking Meowth gave me something that told me this would help me. First of all, can anyone tell me where I am right now? I need to get back to Cerulean City!

Well, I use to! I traveled a lot with my friends before I took over as leader of the Cerulean Gym.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

So... what kind of gym are we talking?

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

A Pokémon Gym. I specialize in water-types.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

So that... animal is a Pokemon?

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Yeah! There are hundreds of different kinds of them. Azurill's a normal-type right now, but when it evolves, it'll be a water-type.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

Normal type? Water type?

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah. I guess you wouldn't be familiar with what that means.

Pokémon have different types, like fire, grass, or water; and all of these types have their advantages and weaknesses against other types.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

That...

[ Sounds kind of arbitrary. ]

Well it... kinda makes sense.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Heh, that's alright. If you don't have them in your world, it probably is confusing to hear about them.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

I've gotten a lot of that lately though.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Really?

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

Well, this place has witches and demons and... and stuff like that that's not even real where I'm from, so you can imagine what it's like.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

... Witches and demons exist here?

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

You'd be surprised how friendly they can be.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Great, I can't wait to meet them, then.

[sigh.]

Sorry, it's just hard to see anything like that being friendly, even though I've already met someone who called herself a witch.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't be surprised if you've already met a demon too.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

That's probably the case right now.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty much perfectly human, though.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Well, I am too.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

Looks like you can take care of yourself, though.

[cascadetomboy.livejournal.com]

Thanks. You look like you can do the same.

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

[ She holds up a rifle stock. ]

Yep.
