Clan Jaranie to Pallet Town

During the journey Kaijin fell ill. His wound had gotten infected. Four days after the massacre
they made it to Pallet Town. Kaijin was not in good shape and the two oldest of the children
were holding him up. Gary became aware through his scouts that there was an extremely
decimated Clan Jaranie on their way so he had a group out waiting for them. They took Kaijin
to the Medical Wing of the Fortress. They tried to take the twins from him but they wouldn't
go and the Pikachu fried anyone who tried to pull them away . . . . The Pikachu also would not leave.

Gary shook his head "I though that clan Jaranie did not train Pokmon."

Lara smiled, "Kaijin has always been a little strange. He has had that Pikachu since the first
time I met him a little over four years ago. That was also the first time Clan Jaranie came
to any of the clan meetings. Clan Jaranie may be the oldest of the clans but it is also the
most solitary. He and his mate Lisala were expecting the Twins then and now they are four
years old. My how time flies."

"Hmmm, he seems familiar somehow. But I have never met anyone from this clan . . . Maybe it
is my imagination."

Lara shrugged and replied, "The first time I met him he seemed familiar to me, too, but he
did not seem to know me so I just attributed it to his personality. He is very friendly and
most of the time you just feel so comfortable around him. Right now, though, he is just
delirious. You really can't tell what he is like and since all the adults but him died, he
might be changed by it."

"I hope if he is changed he does not become bitter."

"I don't think he will."

In the Med. Wing they cleaned Kaijin's wound and put him on antibiotics. The children and
Pikachu were very upset. They sat by his side for three days while he was falling in and out
of delirium. When the fever broke and he finally regained his senses he was very weak.


Cerulean City

In Cerulean City Misty's sisters were very worried about her but they knew that if any one
of them was caught they were on their own.


Pallet Town

A few days after Clan Jaranie got in to town, Brock's group made it to Pallet. Brock, Misty
and Suzie were talking to Gary and Lara. They were all gathered in the one part of the
Fortress that could be raised above ground. It was a small room made of glass and was
usually used for the children to have classes and play in.

"We need to find Ash. If the prophecy is correct, then he is the catalyst that is needed
to get the people to fight for freedom. We have tried to free Celadon City but they would
not listen to us." Gary was pacing around the room seeming quite agitated.

"How did you try to free them? How did you get your people there?" Asked Brock curiously.

"We sent them by Pidgeot and Fearow. They went and the people would not listen and tried
to turn them in. It was just a few weeks after Team Rocket took over. Since The Indigo
Plateau fell there is no one who the people will follow. At first we thought Lance of the
elite four would pull the world together but they attacked him and he disappeared. We
don't know if he survived. After that the Plateau fell. We sent a person out shortly after
to Celadon City and that is when we were practically stoned out.

"Yeah I tried to go into Fuchsia City and they forced me and my people out." stated Suzie
sitting down.

"Why do you think Ash is the key?" asked Brock sitting down next to Suzie.

"He is the only Pokmon Master that hasn't been eliminated by Team Rocket. And then
there is the Prophecy, If we take what that old woman said seriously, then Ash is the
Hero and I'm the Rival . . . "

"She called ME the Quarry. But, what does it mean by the Quarry falling?"

"Maybe something will happen to you. Or it is because your city fell? She called me the
Waters. But why would I rise?"

"Rise To Fight? Rise to the challenge of this war? Who knows." commented
Brock.

"But the point is we have to find Ash...if Team Rocket hasn't already found him, that is,"
stated Suzie.

Gary stood up and stretched, "I'm going to my quarters. I need sleep. I've been up for the
last few days trying to settle Clan Jaranie. Those children are only trusting us because
this is where the clan was headed."

"They aren't trusting me either. I hope that Kaijin wakes up soon." Lara stood up and
walked over to Gary.

Gary, Lara, Brock, Suzie and Misty went to find beds. They were all exhausted from
the trip and settling the Clan.
