[OLD] Luna Mew Light Kanto Journey

Chapter 10: Saffron Gym! Psychic? And Lavender Town

After finishing with Maiden's peak Luna, Misty and Brock were now back on track with travelling to Saffron City. Right now they were walking through a forest and it was getting dark.

I hope we find Saffron City soon," said Misty, "it's getting late."

"Hey Luna." Brock called out, "What Pokémon are you going to use?"

"Well," Luna said, "since the Gym Leader Sabrina, uses Psychic type I've been thinking about it. I thought of using Gengar, Butterfree or Beautifly, since Ghost and Bug types beat Psychic types. But since Gengar are part Poison type as well it might not work as Psychic beats poison. As with Butterfree and Beautifly, well I couldn't make up my mind. So I decided to go with Espeon. After all Psychic vs Psychic can work."

"That's a great idea." Brock said.

Just then they heard laughter coming from some bushes. The laughter was from a little girl, about six years old, and was wearing a white dress, with a white hat and was carrying a white ball.

"Excuse me little girl," Luna asked politely, "do you know if we are near to Saffron City?"

The little girl laughed again and ran away into the bushes. "I was only asking for directions." Luna said and the group followed the path that the girl, 'Something is not right about that little girl.' She thought but she still took it and the path led them to a cliff.

They saw Saffron City ahead of them; it was a city with many lights, "Wow it's beautiful." Misty said admiringly the lights.

"I guess seeing that little girl was a sign of luckiness." Brock chuckled and Misty also chuckled at that comment.

"Maybe?" Luna said deep in thought.

After spending the night in the Pokémon Centre, the gang walked over to Saffron Gym, an unusual dome-shaped building. "Well time to get my fourth badge." Luna said. She was about to open the Gym's door, when a dark grey bearded man, in a dark green jogging outfit and with a dark green cap, interrupted him.

"Are you going to battle Sabrina?" The man asked. He stared at Luna and appeared to be studying her, Luna noticed this, but shook it off.

"Yes I am battling Sabrina," Luna said, "is that a problem?"

"If I were you kid," the man said, "I'd go to another Gym. Sabrina will not go easy on a newbie trainer like you. So leave now and go to another gym."

Luna glared at the man she wanted to fight Sabrina, she looked at the old man straight in the eye. "I'm sorry but listen here old man," she said, "I didn't come to Saffron Gym just to have you tell me to leave. I'm battling Sabrina, got that?"

Luna felt his Aura but it was strange, his Aura was like a Psychic type. "And why does your Aura feel like a Psychic Type, as well?" She asked the man and he was shocked to find Luna a Aura user, they are extremely rare in the world especially people with the abilities. The man smiled at her and lead her inside with her friends.

Inside Luna Misty and Brock saw a lot of people at tables. Some people were staring at spoons, as if they were trying to bend them. And the rest were trying to guess what shape was on cards, without looking. L

"What are they all doing?" Misty asked.

"Hey what are you kids doing here?" A voice asked. It was a man in a lab coat.

"I am here to challenge Sabrina." Luna answered.

The man chuckled, "If you're here to challenge the great Sabrina," he said, "then you are in big trouble."

"Why is that?" Misty asked, "and what are those people doing?"

"If you must know, it's this." The man said. He took a spoon out of his pocket, held it up and stared at it hardly. The spoon suddenly bent a bit.
