Pink, Day 38: Flying.

Hello, and welcome to the Pokémon Center!

Dream Eater is sooo good sometimes!  Sure, my vision is now double and everything has a tint of orange but I didn't have to have any dreams last night!  No creepy Fool or whatever!

Presently, Articuno is learning how to fly.  The HM02 has been teaching him, "To fly, spread wings, support weight of passenger, fly.  Flap wings to keep aloft.  Fly."

Articuno looks as ready as he's going to be for flying.  With this in mind, I ran towards him, ready to leap onto its back...

Thud!

Missed.  Double vision happened.  I tried again and missed again.  I was sure this time it was Articuno that moved however.  It had to be.

I missed once more.  Tripped over my own foot.  Next, I fell over Articuno and landed onto the ground.  I wasn't pleased.

There would be no more BLOODY games!  I tossed out Dratini and told her to electrocute Articuno with a Thunderbolt move then quickly returned the dragon Pokémon to her ball.  Ice was strong against dragons for some stupid reason and Articuno was about ready to freeze her to death.

The bloody legendary wasn't happy but nor was I.  Quickly, I raced to his front, punched him in the face, smacked him over the head then hopped over onto his back.  The ice bird was angry but I was his master and I decided what he was going to do.  Fuming, I kicked the bird and ordered him to fly.

The bloody bird did but then threw me off.

--

It took about an hour of hitting Articuno to get him to obey, but eventually, the bloody legendary complied and now we're flying in the air.

Its bloody terrifying.

We're above the clouds and Articuno is spinning and shaking about, trying to get me off his back.  I held on with both hands and my teeth.  No way was this beast going to defy me anymore!  I was the boss!  He was the Pokémon!  A woman chooses, a Pokémon obeys!

Cinnabar is in sight now.

We hope to see you again soon!
