Recaps from Part 4: Brock is drawn to the mysterious girl. A
humiliated Grim Reaper vows to get even with Sailor Venus. Lost and
confused, Mina finds herself stranded in the Pokémon World.

Part 5: "Nowhere to run"

It was a beautiful mid-day while the group was enjoying their lunch.
The other pokemon were outside of their pokeballs playing a game of
hide and seek. Jigglypuff smiled at Brock because he had made her a
delicious meatball snack. Brock was cooking at a camp stove while Ash
and Misty squabbled over the last riceballs.

"Hey!" Brock yelled, looking over his two friends bickering. "There's
plenty of riceballs to go around!"

"SHE started it!" Ash exclaimed, glaring at Misty.

Misty gave him a cold look. Brock sighed. He took a plate, put a
couple of riceballs and shoved into their hands.

Meanwhile, Jigglypuff was thinking of adding some spices to her food.
She grabbed the peppershaker and starts to sprinkle some at a time.
She wasn't paying attention until the cap slipped off. A large amount
of pepper fell out and pilled onto her meatballs. The panicky
Jigglypuff tried to dust quickly off the pepper. When she was
satisfied, she put one in her hand and sank her teeth into the
meatball. Jigglypuff's eyes widened and dropped the spicy meatball.
Her face turned bright red and her eyes started to water.

"AIEEEE!!!!!" Jigglypuff screamed out loud, jumping into the air and
covering her mouth. She landed her butt on the ground while her plate
came thundering down on her head. At this point, everybody was
wondering what Jigglypuff was about to do next. Jigglypuff stood up
and wondered why Ash was laughing hysterically.

"Hey look! Jigglypuff looks like a meatballhead!" Ash said laughing.

Jigglypuff scratched her head in confusion. She felt two lumpy balls
on her head and removed them. She looked down into her hands and
realized it was a pair of meatballs landed at the top of her head.

Mina was sitting quietly on the log with a cozy blanket around her.
She turned her head sideways and looked at Ash strangely.
"Meatballhead?" She questioned. "Where did I heard that before?" She
wondered. She looked down at Jigglypuff, who was trying to clean her
head.

Jigglypuff looked up and saw Mina staring intently at her. "Oh, she
probably wants something to eat." Jigglypuff thought. She searched
through the grass for a decent-looking meatball to eat. She found a
somewhat clean meatball and tried to blow off the little bits of dirt.
She walked over to Mina and jumped into the log where Mina was
sitting.

"Jigglypuff? (Do you want some?)" Jigglypuff inquired, trying to give
the meatballs to Mina.

"Oh no, thank you!" Mina answered, shaking her head. "You're so cute!
Why don't I clean you off?" She wrapped Jigglypuff in a blanket that
she was using and rubbed the blanket on to the pink pokemon.

Brock walked over to them and brought Mina's lunch with him. "Here you
go, I made this lunch for you. Hope you like it!" He announced,
handing over her lunch. Mina looked up and gave him one of her
sunniest smiles. Brock's heart jolted in surprise and couldn't help
but grin back at her. He took a seat next to her.

"There you go, all nice and clean!" Mina said at last, giving
Jigglypuff a last rub. She removed the blanket away from Jigglypuff
and placed the blanket down before taking her lunch away from Brock.

"Puff! Puff! (Thanks!)" Jigglypuff said gratefully, resuming back to
her seat.

"Huh? What did you say?" Mina asked.

"Jigglypuff!" Jigglypuff repeated again, looking up at her.

"What did she say?" She turned to ask Brock, sitting beside her.

Brock was chewing a piece of riceball and swallowed before answering
her. "She's thanking you," he explained.

"Oh, what is this creature by the way?" Mina asked curiously.

"Jigglypuff!" Jigglypuff repeated her name again.

"It's a pokemon," Brock answered her. He continued eating his lunch.

Mina was trying to absorb what Brock said to her. After a moment, she
asked, "What's a pookayymon?" She was still confused.

He choked on his food. He couldn't believe what just he heard. "You
don't know what a pokemon is do you?" he asked her incredulously,
giving her an astonished look.

"No," She shook her head, her face looking serious.

Brock's friends had been listening to their entire conversation. A
dead silence filled around their campsite. Ash spitted out his orange
juice while drinking. Misty stopped playing with Togepi and raised her
eyebrows at Mina. "Boy, this girl is too strange!" They both thought.

Brock continued to stare at Mina with his mouth hanging open. "This
girl is really...different."

Pikachu became annoyed with his friends for being rude to Mina. With a
sly look on his face, he decided to teach his friends a lesson.

"Pikachuuu!" Pikachu screamed. A lightning bolt electrified Ash, Misty
and Brock at the same time.

Mina became stunned. She gave Pikachu a surprised look. Pikachu
grinned back and waved to her nervously.

"Pikachu! What WAS that for??" Ash demanded as he stood up. He gave
Pikachu a cold glare.

"Pikachu! Pika! Pi! Pika! Pi! (Be nice to the new girl ok?)" Pikachu
said angrily.

"Oh, I see..." Ash said shamefully. His head dropped from
embarrassment and a blush crept along his cheeks.

"What's Pikachu saying?" Misty asked. Brock dusted himself off and
curiously joined his friends.

Ash turned to face his two best friends. "Pikachu said we shouldn't
have been rude to that girl." He whispered so that Mina wouldn't hear
him.

"Anyway, Pikachu's right!" Brock whispered, huddling closer. "We
should try to help the poor girl as much as we can." He turned his
back and headed over to Mina.

Mina was happily eating and sharing her lunch with Jigglypuff. She
looked up and saw Brock walking towards them.

"Is everything alright?" She asked, looking concerned.

"Oh yeah, everything's cool!" He reassured her, giving her a smile.

"You're friend is absolutely amazing. I haven't seen anything like
it!" She said admiringly, looking at Pikachu.

"Oh, you mean Pikachu?" Brock said, glancing at the yellow mouse.
"He's quite powerful. He uses thunder for attacks. He's a pokémon too.
Pokémon stands for Pocket Monsters. You can catch them in this red and
white pokéball. You can either breed, raise or use pokémon for
battle." He showed the pokéball to her.

"What kind of pookayymon is this?" She asked curiously, her hand
caressing Jigglypuff's head.

"Po-ké-mon," He corrected her. "Jigglypuff is a balloon pokémon who
loves to sing."

Mina eyes lit up. "Oh, will you sing for me, Jigglypuff, please?" She
asked the pink pokémon.

Jigglypuff was delighted too. "Jigglypuff! (Sure!)" She said
excitedly, taking a last bite of her lunch.

"OH NO!" Brock protested, shaking his head. "You don't really want to
do that!"

Neither Mina or Jigglypuff listened. Jigglypuff stood up from the log
and prepared for her grand performance. Brock groaned as soon as he
saw Jigglypuff eyes' lit up and opened her mouth.

"Jigallypuff...Jigallypuff..." She sang. The effect on Jigglypuff's
lullaby song put everyone to sleep. Her song was interrupted by a loud
snore. She blew herself up in rage and took out her marker to draw on
everyone's faces in revenge. She was angry and frustrated that no one
paid attention to her song AGAIN.

"Bravo, Jigglypuff! That was a beautiful song!" A female voice
cheered.

Jigglypuff turned around to see Mina applauding cheerfully.
"JIGGLYPUFFF!!" She said excitedly, her pearly eyes widened. She hid
her marker behind her as she gave Mina a huge smile. She then jumped
into Mina's lap and snuggled closer. Mina patted Jigglypuff gently and
gave the pokémon a hug.

Grim Reaper secretly hid in the shadows of an alley where he spied his
enemies from there. He watched a group of girls dressed in sailor
uniforms gathered around a mysterious black hole appeared on the
ground that he used to escape from them.

A tall dark green haired girl stood in the middle, holding out her key
staff pointing to the black hole. The purple orb at the top of her
staff continued to generate a glowing light to prevent the black hole
from closing up.

"Time is running out. I must go quickly to save Sailor Venus before it
is to late." Sailor Pluto declared, examining the black hole closely.

"Then you better go now." Sailor Neptune said. "Uranus, Saturn and I
will take care of the others."

"Can I come with you?" Sailor Moon asked all of a sudden, waking
towards Sailor Pluto. "Please, let me go with you. I want to know if
Sailor Venus is alright!" She begged, her sad blue eyes pleaded
silently to Sailor Pluto.

"But Princess, you're too injured to go!" Sailor Saturn said.

"And besides, it's way too dangerous for you!" Sailor Uranus said.

"I promised that I will return with Sailor Venus as soon as I can find
her." Sailor Pluto replied softly, giving Sailor Moon a sympathetic
look. "Do not worry, I will not fail you. Princess Serenity!" She
turned to face everyone. "Sailor Scouts I trust that you will protect
the Princess while I am gone. There is no telling when Grim Reaper
will strike next."

"You can count on us!" Sailor Jupiter declared. Everyone nodded their
heads in agreement.

"Good luck!" Everyone exclaimed as Sailor Pluto bids farewell to her
friends.

Sailor Pluto carefully lifted her legs as she stepped into the black
hole. Her body sinking quickly as soon as she disappeared.

The place became a total silence when she left. The Sailor Scouts
closed their eyes and offered a silent prayer for their friends' safe
return.

Grim Reaper looked away and stared into the darkness. He closed his
eyes and silently mumbled. Dark energy waves spread through him as he
faded into the background turning into a tiny light.

It swept through the air and quickly entered the black hole undetected
as the portal slowly closes up....

* * *

Brock gave a big yawned as he sat up and stretched out his arms. Misty
rubbed her eyes trying to open them. Togepi made cheerful noises.
Pikachu quietly sat back, staring ahead. Ash stood up and scratched
his back.

"Hey!" Ash exclaimed. His friends turned to look at him. Ash was
staring at his reflection down the puddle. He was surprised to find
there was no marks on his face. "Did you guys see this! I don't have
anything on my face! Neither do you!" His fingers pointing at them.

"You're right!" Both Misty and Brock agreed. Their image reflecting on
the water.

"I wonder what happened?" Misty asked. "Doesn't it usually happen with
Jigglypuff sings that lullaby and we all go to sleep. We waked up and
we have drawings on our faces?"

"Hmm..." Brock thought. "It does...probably Jigglypuff got to tired of
it since no one else is listening to her singing. Poor Jigglypuff! I
feel sorry for that pokemon. I wish there was some WAY that SOMEONE
would listen to her." "Well, anyway. I guess Jigglypuff ran away from
us again!" He said.

"Nope, she's right here!" A female voice startled him. Brock saw Mina
sitting on the leg with Jigglypuff on her lap. Jigglypuff sat
contentedly with a warm blanket around her and staring Mina
admiringly.

"I'm glad that you're all awake!" Mina said, smiling brightly at them.
"It's too bad that you missed out on Jigglypuff's singing debut!"

Brock, Ash, Misty and Pikachu gawked at her. "You....You heard
Jigglypuff's singing?" Brock asked in disbelief. "And you didn't went
to sleep?!!?"

"Nope," Mina answered. "It was the most beautiful song I've ever heard
in my life! Right Jigglypuff?!" She looked down at Jigglypuff.

"Jiggly! Jiggly!" Jigglypuff exclaimed, her eyes twinkled in
excitement.

"But that's impossible!" Ash exclaimed, shaking his head. "No one
could have stand that song!"

"I don't know how you did it!" Misty said. "But you made Jigglypuff
really happy. Well, that's answered your question, Brock?"

Brock didn't answer her. He was looking at Mina curiously.

"I hate to interrupt!" Misty declared. "But don't you think it's time
we pack and leave? I don't want to stay in this creepy forest
anymore!"

"Ya know! We never did find that UFO!" Ash mused aloud, busy packing
his things into his backpack.

"What UFO?" Mina implored.

"Last night, the sky turned freaky. Something came out from the sky. I
think it was a tiny orange light. We didn't had time to look cause
there was a sudden storm. And the next morning, we had to look for
Pikachu. And then Brock found you." Misty explained.

"Hmm..." Mina murmured, deeply thinking to herself. She vividly
remembered herself choking and a vicious monster held her captive as
she collapsed. She shook her head, trying to clear that disturbing
memory. She helped the others packed their things.

* * *

"Where am I?" Sailor Pluto wondered. She lifted her eyes to see
darkness everywhere. She raised her staff high and her garnet orb
began to glow brightly. She was surprised to find herself floating in
the air. Her eyes gazed into dark and eerie void. There were many
blackholes, appearing to be turbulent, swirling portals.

"Garnet Orb, reveal the sword to me!" She summoned. She released her
staff and hovered in front of her. The garnet orb began to blink
rapidly. At a far distance, she saw another light blinking
corresponding at the same time with her garnet orb. She smiled in
response.

Suddenly, a shadow flicked across the reflection of the garnet orb.
Her eyes narrowed as she turned around to look suspiciously and her
ears pierced into the air to hear incoming noises.

With her attention returned back to the present, she was alarmed to
find the mysterious light vanished. Her heart began to race.

"Looking for this?" A deep, harsh voice asked. Sailor Venus' wink
chain sword materialized in front of her.

"The sword!" She gasped in surprise. But she was soon dismayed as the
sword disappeared before she can reach it. The menacing voice laughed
loudly, tormenting her.

"Stop this foolishness Grim Reaper! Show yourself!" Sailor Pluto
demanded.

"I'll be glad too!" He snarled. In far distance, Grim Reaper began to
approach with the tremendous speed of light. He split himself into
three forms, surrounding Sailor Pluto.

She held her staff high, collecting ribbons of energy. "Pluto Deadly
Scream!" She whispered, as she swung her staff around her and released
a purple planet energy beam that has the effect of a massive sonic
scream. She turned around twice attacking Grim Reaper with all her
might.

"No!" Sailor Pluto yelled as she saw her enemy disappeared each time
he dodged her attack.

"Pathetic!" He said angrily, grabbing Sailor Pluto behind. Her neck
was squeezed tightly as she felt her being drained out of her body.
She screamed as she was electrified by negative energy and her body
became limp. She drops into unconsciousness and her body fell forward.

With her body floating motionlessly in the air, Grim Reaper extended
his two arms towards her and his palms emitted light.

Rings of energy surrounded her body, transforming into a large crystal
and trapping Sailor Pluto inside it.

Grim Reaper laughed as he took off, carrying the sword with him.

"So, Brock. How do you capture a Pokayman? I mean Pokémon." Mina
corrected herself. She and the others continued on their journey to
the next town as planned. They were walking along the path through the
forest.

Brock answered her. "Well, first you have to think carefully which
pokémon you should use against it-"

"Unlike some other people, I know!" Misty interrupted, looking over at
Ash.

"Who?" Ash asked, looking confused.

Brock shook his head and continued talking. "And second, you have to
weaken the pokémon you're intending to capture. For example, rock
pokémon are weak against water type pokémon. But rock pokémon are
strong against electric type pokémon..."
"Hey look, there's an Eevee!" Ash cut in, pointing towards an Eevee
eating on the grass. "I'm gonna capture it!" Ash declared, pulling his
cap down and turning it backwards. He grabbed his pokéball from his
belt. He pressed the front button to enlarge the size.

He was about to throw his pokéball until a hand grasped him arm.

"Let me do this, Ash please!" Brock pleaded. "C'mon. Just this once?"
"But why?" Ash questioned. "What would you use Eevee for?"

"Um..." Brock stammered, unconsciously fidgeting with his fingers.

"Hey Brock! That's a nice look on you!" Misty pointed out. Brock's
face grew even more redder.

"Oh please, Ash. I haven't captured a pokémon for so long. I'm afraid
that my skills aren't sharp as they used to be. Yeah, that's it! I'm
afraid that my skills aren't as sharp as they used to be! I just need
some practice!" Brock nervously spat out.

"Yeah, to impress that girl!" Misty snorted.

"What did you say?!" Brock glared at her.

"Okay, Brock. You could capture it." Ash said reluctantly.

"Thanks buddy! I know I could count on you!" Brock said with
sincerity.

"I still think that's a good look on you!" Misty said, looking over at
Mina patting Jigglypuff. "You really like her don't you?" Before Brock
could answer, Mina crept up behind them.

"Is anything wrong?" She asked innocently.

Brock quickly covered Misty's mouth. "Oh nothing...." He stammered,
"We were just discussing small matters."

"Hey!" Mina exclaimed, "That or ah...whatever that thing is so cute!"

Jigglypuff followed Mina's gaze towards Evee. "Jigglypuff! (I'm much
more cuter than that!)" she snorted, folding her tiny arms against
her.

"And this is how you capture a pokémon," Brock announced, threw his
pokéball. "Go Vulpix!"

Vulpix came out from his pokéball and waited for Brock's instruction.

"Vulpix, flamethrower!" Brock exclaimed, his fingers pointing to
Eevee.

Vulpix jumped into the air and opened his mouth slightly about to spit
fire. But then he stopped in mid-air and fell to the ground.

"Vulpix? (Don't you want to battle?)" Vulpix asked.

Eevee turned around and swallowed his food. "Eevee....
Eeveee....(Nope, not interested. Now if you don't mind puffball, leave
me alone. I'm hungry!" Eevee said flatly, turning his attention back
to his food.

Vulpix turned to Brock, giving him a surprise look. Brock mirrored the
same expression and Misty asked him quietly. "Hey Brock, what are you
going to do now? Eevee doesn't seemed want to battle."

Brock began to laugh nervously. He took another pokéball and threw to
Eevee. "Go pokéball!" He yelled.

Eevee raised his head and caught the sight of the pokéball hurling
towards him. He effortlessly tailwhiped the pokéball back to Brock.

SMACK!!

"Ouch!" Brock howled in pain, his hands covering his entire face. He
removed his hand and there was an imprint of a pokéball on his swollen
forehead.

"Vulpix, flamethrower again and don't hesitate!" He said firmly.

Vulpix opened his mouth and a flame came out burning Eevee's tail.

Eevee yelped in surprise. He turned around and glared at Brock with an
intense angered look.

"Brock, have you ever seen an Eevee with fire in its eyes?" Ash asked.

"Yeah, the type is about to kill me!" Brock replied.

Eevee takes his stance, getting ready for action. Adrenaline rushed
through him as he did his agility attack. Suddenly, he leaped into the
air and jumped unto Vulpix's head that caused Vulpix to lose his
balance.

His eyes gazed over at Brock's leg and chose it as its target. Eevee
opened his mouth wide enough to bite Brock's leg.

Brock was screaming and running around in circles trying to get Eevee
off. "Aahhh!! Get it off! Get it off! Vulpix, do something!"

While, Vulpix was pacing back and forth, trying to think clearly. Ash,
Misty, Pikachu and Jigglypuff were all laughing hysterically. Mina was
covering her mouth trying to hold her laughter down.

Finally, Vulpix did his flamethrower attack again, burning his master
and Eevee at the same time."

"Thanks Vulpix!" Brock gasped as he slowly sat on the ground, trying
to be careful with his wounded leg. He took his pokéball and threw to
Eevee who was a few inches away from him.

The pokéball opened and trapped Eevee inside. The ball shook a little
and the front button flashed red. The ball became still.

"And that's how you capture a pokémon!" Brock exclaimed, turning to
Mina.

Vulpix took the ball and gave it to Brock. "All thanks to Vulpix!"
Brock said gratefully as he patted Vulpix's head. Vulpix blushed in
embarrassment.

Mina felt suddenly guilty for causing Brock's injury. A sudden
lightness inside her brushed her guilt away as she watched Brock
struggled to get up. A warm, sunny smile spread across her lips,
silently thanking Brock for the trouble he been through just for her.

She turned around to see Misty opening Brock's bag and taking out a
first aid kit. "I have to do something!" Mina thought.

"You must be in a great pain!" Mina exclaimed, taking the first aid
kit from Misty's hands quickly. She went to Brock and started to nurse
him.

"There you're all done!" She said after a few moments passed. She was
busy returning all the materials back inside the kit. Brock gave her a
warm gratitude.

"Brock, that was really sweet of you!" Mina said sincerely, "But you
didn't have to go all that trouble just to show me." She smiled at
him.

"Um....well.....I....just wanted too." He mumbled, his cheeks blushed.

Misty rolled her eyes. "Oh brother!" She thought, shaking her head.
