10th Chapter - Ghost Busting Chapter [Video/Action]
[You know what kind of gift this gym needs? The GIFT of Keiichi. If you just so happen to be in the Ecruteak gym today, the doors will suddenly BURST open with a red flaming comet jumping right over the pit and landing in front of Morty. The flames die down to reveal Keiichi on a Ponyta! And he's even wearing a super flashy red jacket with the letters "K1" emblazoned on the back. Thanks, Hayate.]
--Descending from the heavens, the galactic red comet, Maebara Keiichi, dazzles the stage!
[Morty begins to clap!] Well, well, well! That was a flashy entrance! I always look forward to seeing how trainers get through my maze, even if you decided to cut some corners.
[And Keiichi hops off to return his Ponyta.] I've smashed through that illusion and I'm going to break through the rest of your ghost pokemon like glass, Morty! You don't stand--
"A ghost of a chance"? Hahaha, I've heard that pun over a thousand times from trainers who came here.
... SERIOUSLY!? OI! Who do you think you are stealing my lines!!? And here I thought you could really look into the future...!
Hahaha! They don't call me "The Mystic Overseer of the Future" for nothing. I won't jinx myself and say "I predict that you're not going to win this battle." That would be too cliche, don't you think?
The fact that you have a skeptical title like that already trips up over a dozen loser flags.
... Instead, I'll tell you know that by the very end of this battle... You're going to experience absolute terror.
You know... That's big talk coming from the great gym leader who pissed himself when he lost against a certain Empress. But I can't really blame you for that. Not one bit.
[Both of them simultaneously take our their Pokeballs. Cue dramatic duel screen bedroom eyes staredown.]
Your predictions don't mean anything to me. By the end of this battle, you'll be the one experiencing absolute terror, Morty.....!!!
[In white flashes of light, a Golduck and a Haunter are facing off on the battlefield. At the mere sight of the ghost Pokemon, Keiichi's face turns a shade of white and then starts screaming like this.
... For a full on five minutes. Morty and his Haunter just exchange a pair of amused looks at each other, then look back to Keiichi as his Golduck uses a light water gun on his face to snap him out of out it.]
Ahh... T-thanks, Golduck... Alright! Now that I've gotten those screams of pure joy out of the way, let's get this battle started...!!!
[And the gym battle between ghost and man begins! Keiichi pretty much plows through Morty's ghosts as he said he would. But the battles with Mischievous and Genger always start under the same formula. Ghost Pokemon comes out, Keiichi starts screaming mechanically again, Golduck hits him with Water Gun to snapping out his state. With all of that said and done, Keiichi awkwardly walks up to Morty to receive his badge then head for the door. The gym leader however is smirking as if he's won the entire battle.]
Well, that was easier than I thought! I conquered those ghost Pokemon, so this means I can't be afraid of them anymore....! So... Just why am I still shaking?! T-that's right, I had this funny feeling all day! Like something's creeping up behind me right now.... Like an extra footstep that shouldn't be there...!!
[And suddenly on cue, a Haunter (that's definetely not Morty's) appears right behind Keiichi and pokes his shoulder. Keiichi sloooowly turns around, then goes from a shade of white to blue and gives a good long SHRIEK of bloody murder before the feed clicks off.]
