Chapter 8

My dad led us to the living room and stood in front of the fireplace.
“What I’m about to show you is in no way to be taken lightly. Do you understand?”
“Yes…” I said uncertainly.
He pulled a few bricks from the fireplace revealing a secret compartment. He then reached inside and grabbed a gold trimmed box.
“I want you to take this along with you… I want you to only use this in times of great peril. Times where it’s no longer a matter of weather you succeed or fail, but a matter of your very lives. Only… and only in a time like that do I want you to use this…” he said while opening it.
In the box was a white and blue ball, about the size of a golf ball with the white on the bottom and the blue on the top and wings painted on the top over the blue. Also while looking closer at it I noticed it had a little “L” on what seemed to be a button in the middle of it.
“So… what is it?” I asked.
“I only hope you never have to find out…” my dad said coldly.
I gave him an “I understand” kind of look.
There was silence for about 2 minutes.
“Well, how’s about we go get the pokemon?” came in Drake in a desperate attempt to stop the silence.
“Sounds like a great idea…” said Johnny.
