Spinarak-man
Chapter one

At a secret Rocket laboratory...

Giovanni looked over the lab with his emotion
being hidden. He didn't want to display his
annoyance and anger yet. The one room that he
was looking at held bug pokemon in cages being
experimented with. All were in their cages,
all but one. A single spinarak wasn't in it's
cage. It had some how escaped. That was what was
annoying him. Somewhere out there, a mutated
spinarak was wondering around.

It had been expensive to find the crystals to
power the genetic enhancer ray. A device that would
increase a pokemon's natural talents. A power boost
that was given to the pokemon so that it would make
Team Rocket even more powerful. But now it was lost.

"Where is it?" He asked, looking over the group of
scientists that had gather around him. "Doe you know
how much trouble you'll be in if people discover
this pokemon. We don't know what this pokemon can
do, and it's now wandering the wild. Who know what
this pokemon is doing right now.

Elsewhere...

"Owwww!" Ash Ketchem remarked as the spinarak bit
him. He had been focusing on the pokemon before him.
It was just an Oddish, but it was something that he
could add to his collection of pokemon. Then all of
a sudden he was bitten by a spinarak. In reaction,
he threw a pokeball at the spinarak. The ball opened
up and sucked up the spinarak in a glow of red light.
The pokeball landed and rocked back and forth for a
few minutes before it dinged, it's red glowing button
returned to a white colour.

Ash looked at the hand that had been bitten by the bug
pokemon. He didn't know what pokemon had bitten him.
He pulled out his pokedex.

"Spinarak: The String Spit Pokemon
It spins a web using fine -- but durable -- thread.
It then waits patiently for the prey to be trapped."

But Ash could barely read it as his vision started
swimming. But he could still hear it, even with it
echoing around in his head. He looked at the wound
again. Two bite marks where sitting on a growing
swelling that was turning a deeper red and purple.

Pikachu was looking at his friend and trainer with
worry in his eyes. Something strange was happening
to Ash. That Spinarak attack seemed to have done
something to him. As he watched Ash put the pokedex
away and wander away towards camp, Pikachu ran after
him to see if he would be alright. He wasn't.

Minutes after being bitten Ash fainted. Pikachu
ran up to the boy passed out on the ground. Ash
was moaning and groaning in pain. Pikachu knew
he had to due something to help his trainer.
So he ran off to get help with Misty and Brock.

Ash, meanwhile, was descending into a twisted
dream of webs, spinaraks and ariados. He could
feel that something in his body was changing.
Something was coming over him, something
that was transforming.

Pikachu ran into the area that the trainers
had chosen to be their campgrounds at a full
run. He ran over to where Brock was cooking
dinner and Misty was looking over her pokemon,
Togepi. He ran up till both of them were looking
at him, then he started to make noises and started
pointing in the direction of the place where Ash
fell over.

"What's the matter, Pikachu? Where's Ash?" Misty
asked the pokemon, trying to figure out what it
was the pokemon wanted. Something was wrong.
Ash should have been close to Pikachu.

"Something must have happened to Ash. We had
better follow Pikachu. He might know what
happened to Ash." Brock said, looking worried
about the circumstances of what was happening.
"Ash could be in real trouble. Let's go."

"Right." Misty said as the two of them started
after the yellow pokemon. Each one of the young
people were worried for their friend's safety.

The ran untilled they came across Ash's body
laying in the middle of the forest floor. The
heard their friend moaning and groaning.

Brock started to look Ash over, trying to
figure out what was wrong with Ash. "He seems
to be physically okay, but there must be something
wrong with him. The only thing I could find was
some type of bite that's been swelling. Let's
hope that it isn't poisonous. We better bring
him back to camp. We will be better prepared
to help him there." Brock said as he lifted
Ash up. 'Hmmm, he feels heavier that normal.'
Brock thought.

Misty picked up Ash's backpack and followed
Brock on the walk back to camp. 'What could
be wrong with Ash? What trouble do you get
into Ash Ketchem?' She thought to herself.

Later...

Ahs woke up from his twisted dreams and
forgotten nightmares. He was lying in
his knapsack, with a cold compress sitting
on his head. He slowly sat up.

Looking around he saw Brock sitting over
a fire. It was dark now. The fire was the
only light except for the moon. Misty was
sleeping in her knapsack near the fire. It
was then that Brock notice that Ash was up
and around.

"Ash, you're up. How are you feeling? Are
you okay?" Brock was asking his friend, worry
filling his voice.

"I'm fine, Brock. Just feeling a little
strange. My arms seem itchy." With that he
started scratching his arms. That's when
it happened. A small stream of a white
fluid like substance poured from his arms
and hit a tree. What it had formed was a
large web line from Ash to the tree.

"What the..." Ash asked as he pulled on
the line, and pulling the tree over to him.
It was bending almost to the breaking point.
Ash then started to pulled the thread of web
from his arm and it pulled free. Looking
close to his arms he found some strange
indentations with a strange opening.

"Ash, what happened to you?" Brock shouted,
a little bit of fear filling his voice. He
had never seen something like this. It was
one of the strangest thing he had ever seen.

"What's happening?" Misty said, waking up
from a sleep. She was looking at the situation.
A freaked out Brock and a scared Ash. That's
when Ash jumped. Over several feet into the
air and over the ground. With some great
acrobatic skills, he even did a flip.
Ash landed on the tree, and stood on the tree.
Standing on the vertical tree.

"Huh? What the..." Misty said as she tried
to wake herself up more. She could believe
what was happening to Ash. This was way past
bizarre in her book.

Brock, however, was starting to get use
to the strange. He was starting to think of
what was causing the strange situation.
"Ash, What happened to you before you fainted?"
He asked, hoping that what happened might have
a link to what was happening.

"Well," Ash started as he explained the
strange situation with the spinarak. As
he started explaining it he walled down the
tree and was claming himself down. He was on
the ground by the time the story was over.

Misty was up and standing next to Brock as
she listened to Ash's story. "That might
explain it. Somehow, you've gained the powers
of a spinarak. There's just one more thing that
might prove it. Can I borrow your Pokedex?"
Brock asked as he walked closer to Ash.

"Okay," Ash said as he handed his pokedex to
his friend, hoping that everything would clear
everything up.

"Okay, Spinarak attacks?" Brock asked the
Pokedex.

"Spinarak attacks:
Number one: Poison Sting
Number two: String shot
Number three..."

"Stop," Brock said as he close the pokedex.
"Now Ash, could you try a Poison Sting?"

"Poison Sting?" Ash asked as he pointed his
his hand to Brock, "I don't see..." That’s when
poison sting needles started to shoot from his
arms, at the weird indent points. Brock had
to move quickly to avoid being hit bet the
needles, until Ash stopped. "This can't
happening to me. What is happening to me?"

"Somehow, the spinarak attack must have
imprinted its DNA on you. Something must
be up with that spinarak. We had better
talk to Professor Oak as soon as possible.
He might be able to tell us about that
pokemon." Brock said, as he told his theory
of what had happened to Ash. "In the meanwhile,
it would be a good idea to keep all of this secret
until we figure out what to do."

The two other pokemon trainers agreed with Brock.
They didn't want things to get out of hand.

"In the mean time, it might be a good idea for
Ash to practice his powers to see the limits
of his powers. They might come in handy."
Brock said as they looked at Ash.

Weeks later...

They had finally made it to the next pokemon
centre. It was in a small city called Dagwood.
It was famous for it's sandwiches cafes.
Ash was on the phone to Professor Oaks.

"Well, Ash, there was something strange with
that Spinarak that you sent me. It seemed to
have been loaded with some strange form of
energy, but all I can find now is trace amounts
of the energy. That and it seems to know how
to use Strength, which seems bizarre in this type
of pokemon. Why do you ask?" asked the professor.

"It just seemed to be acting strange when I
found it. I was worried about it." Ash said,
not liking that he had to lie to Professor
Oaks, but not wanting to tell of his new
condition over the phone. He might tell him
when they were alone.

The conversations then went on to more normal
topics of conversation like pokemon captures and
training methods. At least Professor Oaks was glad
that Ash had caught a Johto pokemon for him to look
at. That had made the professor's day.

After the phone call, Ash decided to leave the
pokemon centre. He had a lot of exploring to do.
He looked at Pikachu following him as they left.
It was great to have his buddy next to him, even
after the strange events that had befallen him.
It also helped that his pokemon could help him
with practicing his pokemon abilities.

He discovered that he seemed to have the full
range of spinarak attacks from the simple poison
sting to the powerful Psychic attacks. He had
tried his every power in simple battles with his
pokemon. He had made sure that they knew about
the changes that he had gone through yet they
helped him through the battles.

That's when he heard the cries for help. He
headed towards the noising hoping that he could
help out who ever it was. That's when he saw the
two men with guns in front of the Dagwood national
bank. They were holding it up.

Ash knew that with his new abilities that he could
help out the police with these criminals, but he didn't
want to reveal the transformation that he had gone
through. That's when he thought of the costume.

He had been working on a costume for the big
Dagwood costume festival that was happening in
the next day or so. He had been inspired by the
transformation to create a costume that would
match his new nature. 'Well, it would be best
to use it now so that it can help someone. I
can always buy a new costume or dress up
differently.' Ash thought as he ducked into an
alley and changed into his costume.

He put on a green top with a yellow spinarak
on it, and with that added yellow pants. He
also added green gloves that covered his hands
completely and yet had a whole for power packed
lumps to get through. On top of this he put on his
mask. A green one with plastic eyepieces.

"Pikachu, you stay here in case I need help.
Okay?" Ash asked his plucky pokemon ally. He
didn't want his best friend to get injured
due to his rash nature.

"Pika." Pikachu answered, he didn't like Ash
running into danger like this, but he had a
sense that Ash needed to due this on his own.

"Right, I'll be back as soon as I can." With
that, Ash shot out a string of webbing and
swung into action.

"Great take. We must have gotten thousands of
dollars maybe million, eh Jake?" Said the
first robber to the second as they ran away
from the scene of the crime. He was a thin
man with blond hair and green eyes.

"Shut up, Bill. We want to get away from here
as soon as possible. We don't want the police
gaining on us." Jake answered. Jake was a beefy
man with blue hair and brown eyes. They were so
busy running that they nearly missed the figure
that had appeared in front of them. They stopped
as they saw what had been in front of him.

"What do we have here?" Asked Bill as they stopped
in front of the figure. He said it with a sarcastic
grin on his face. He pointed his gun directly at the
figure.

"I don't know, but he's going to be dead meat if he
doesn't get out of the way." Jake answered, as he
pointed his gun at the figure.

"Give up, or else I have to make you stop." Ash
said as he ready himself to jump out of the way
as he waited to use the sixth sense that he seemed
to have developed since his change.

"Oh yeah, well take this." Bill said as he started
to shoot at Ash.

Shots that missed as Ash leaped up into the air with
rapid speed. As he was in the air he shot out a wave
of poison stings down at Bill and Jake shooting the
gun out of their hands. Then as he landed he shot out
some webbing with a string shot and pulled the guns to
him. He held the gun in his hands as he twisted them
into pieces. "I guess that takes care of that." Ash
said, as he dropped the ruined guns.

"What the heck is happening?" Bill said. He then started
to turn around and run away. Till his legs were tangled
up in Ash's spider webs. He was stopped in his tracks.

"You ain't taking me." Jake said as he ran forward to
strike at Ash. Ash leapt out of the way easily as the
thug tired himself out. That when Ash used a light punch
to knock out the thug. He fell like a ton of bricks.

Ash looked at the two thugs that he had laying on the
ground around him. He had to figure out away to leave
them for the police. That's when he had his idea.

Hours later, in the pokemon centre....

Ash was sitting at the table with Misty and Brock
eating the lunch that was before them. They had all
order the famous Dagwood sandwiches. They were looking
at the news that was happening on the TV when it happen.

"And in other news..." The announcer said as he looked
at the camera. "A strange thing happened to the two
thieves that held up the Dagwood Bank today. They were
found not to far from the scene, hanging in what appeared
to be a spinarak web."

Misty and Brock looked at their friend as they heard the
rest of the news broadcast.

"The two suspects claim that they were stopped by one man
dress in a strange green costume. They claimed that he had
some strange powers that seemed to be like the powers of
a pokemon. Or to be more exact, a spinarak. The report from
the police is that they don't condone vigilantism and that
they would like to talk to this Spinarak-man. Now on to
weather with Wacky Willy..."

"Ash Ketchem, what were you doing this afternoon?" Misty
asked not wanting to know the answer of this question as she
most like knew the answer already.

"Yeah, Ash." Brock added as they hoped that it would be
something too bad.

Ash just looked sheeply to his friends as he began to tell
his side of the story.

Meanwhile...

Giovanni had just looked at the video that his minions that
had gotten for him from their media monitoring department.
They had been looking through most of the media's transitions
looking for any hint of the spinarak that they had lost, when
they stumbled across this piece of news that they felt was linked
to the missing pokemon.

This was the link he had been looking for. 'A Spinarak-man.'
Giovanni thought. 'Could the process some how given this man
the powers of the spinarak that had been lost? And how could
I use this to my best interest?' Suddenly a new line of experiments
came into his head. Experiments to give his minions the powers
of pokemon. And perhaps himself as well.
