Legends at Midnight

Chapter 7: Trapped

Blue's P.O.V.

I opened my eyes to pitch black darkness.

Where was I?

I tried to stand up, but my wrists and feet were tied to the chair I was sitting in. There was something leathery around my neck, and it felt heavy.

The door opened letting a little bit of light. The executive from earlier came in and closed the good behind her, turning a very dim light on.

The executive had fiery red hair and matching eyes. She watched me with an evil smirk on her face, "Well well well. If it isn't GymLeader Blue of Viridian City. Not so high and mighty now are you? You know. When I heard of your strength, I didn't expect this little shrimp." She pointed at me and laughed something about long paths and stuff, while her finger got closer to my face.

"I wouldn't put your finger any closer if I were you." I growled.

The Executive poked my nose, "Oh, so what ya gonna do about it?"

You know what I did? I bit it!

The executive screamed as she tried to shake me off. But I wasn't letting go that easily! I clamped down harder, drawing a small stream of blood.

Some grunts came in and tried to help the executive get free, but it didn't work. I just growled at them.

But then one of the Grunts took a small remote with one button on it. He pressed it and I yelped in pain as an electrical spas passed through me! The Executive got free and grasped her bleeding finger, "Oh, boss Giovanni is going to be furious with you when he finds out what you did!" She backhand slapped me and gave me another electrical shock before she and the grunts left,and the room became dark again.

I breathed hard, trying to calm my twitching body. A shock collar, that's what was around my neck! This is pure cruelty. I was shaking with rage/fear uncontrollably. I never even noticed the tears until I felt a cold drop of water running down my stinging cheek. I had no idea why I was crying though. I hadn't cried since I was 6 years old, 10 years ago. So why were my eyes leaking water now?

But I didn't really think about that. I was only thinking about one thing...

What was going to happen to me?

Midnight's P.O.V.

'Night, get up.' I heard someone hiss.

I moaned, refusing to open my eyes, "Five more minutes Roxie..." I muttered.

"Sneazel, Ice Beam."

The moment I felt that freezing ray on my butt, I screamed at the top of my lungs!

"Make it stop!" I heard Silver yell over my voice, so I stopped.

Silver glared at me, "Damn woman! You're loud!" He complained.

I returned the glare, not bothering for once to keep my anger locked away, "Well maybe if you hadn't attacked my ass with that freezing ray, then maybe I wouldn't have blasted your eardrums!" I snapped.

Silver seems unnerved my my sudden attitude and looks away, "Sorry..." He muttered.

I sighed, calming myself, and going back to my normal bored face, "Just let me get the Sleeping Bag packed. Then we can go."

Silver eyes my small backpack, "How are you going to fit it in?" He asked me.

"I won't. I'm not putting it in my Backpack." I sent out Jewel, "Jewel, could you carry the Sleeping Bag for me?" I asked her. She nodded and took the rolled up bed, and I returned her to her Pokéball, and she took the bag inside with her.

Silver gave my a surprised look, "That's a nifty little trick! Where'd you learn that?"

"I figured it out." I responded, "I would always notice how Trainers would give their Pokémon Berries before Gym Battles and the berries went inside the ball with the Pokémon. So I figured that I could do the same thing with other things besides berries."

When we got outside, it was still raining... Great... The rain would have washed away the scent!

But Silver must have read my mind, "Rocket Scent actually grows when it's damp. I don't know why, but it does." He yowled over the wind.

We continued into the storm as Wolf followed the trail. She led us off the route into the trees to a tall oak tree, 'In here." She said. She used strength on one of the roots and a passage way open up.

We went inside to find a Team Rocket base. This must be where Blue is being held.

Suddenly a screech of pain ripped the air! It must have shaken the entire base!

That was Blue!
