Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Dark Rescue Team
IN WICH BUTTON MASH FALLS ASLEEP AND ENTERS THE SUPER LONG AND BORING QUESTIONNAIRE OF DOOM
Load Full StoryI think I dozed off again. But how? Why? I usually never fall asleep when I play pokemon. I quickly looked around, surveying my surroundings. It is really dark. I looked around again. Nothing.
"Hello?~"
My ears quickly swiveled towards the music-like voice.
"Uh, hi?" I replied.
"Oh good!~" the voice said, rather cheerfully, "I'm kinda new at this. So. . . um. . ."
I waited for the voice to continue.
"Er. . . RIGHT!~" the voice shouted, "I wasn't supposed to talk to you at all. . . um. . . YOU HAVE HEARD NOTHING!!!~ NOTHING AT ALL!!!~"
My head feels a little funny. Then I blinked furiously in the inky blackness and shook my head hard.
I think I dozed off again. I quickly looked ar-
"Welcome!~" a musical voice interrupted.
I tried to open my mouth to speak, but I can't, almost as if it was sealed shut with MonsterGlue.
"Er. . . F-fresh new experiences await beyond me- No wait!~ Um. . . yeah, nevermind!~"
What in Equestria is this weird pon-person talking about? I studied the blackness again. Maybe this is. . . a dream?
"You can join the world of pokemon, but only after you answer a few of my questions!~"
I nodded, obviously interested. Pokemon? Sure! Right now this is mounting up to be the most strangest dream I ever had.
"Yeah!~ That's what I like!~ Enthusiasm!~"
As soon as there was a burst of rainbow-colored light. My hoof instantly shielded my eyes. Then lowered it.
"Let the questions begin!~"
"Would you ever consider sticking to a plan to do ten push-ups a day?~"
"No?" I replied.
"Ah, okay.~ A fortune-teller says you have a bad future ahead of you. How do you react?~"
"I will worry a lot I guess."
You want to reveal that you like someone a whole bunch!~ What do you do?~
My cheeks flamed at that. Does the voice know about my crush on Sweetie?
Nah, maybe not.
"I'mma waiting!~"
"I'll keep it to myself!" I blurted.
You feel a burst of happiness!~ How about expressing it with a little-
"NO!"
"Alright, sheesh!~ What do you think of a jungle exploration!~
"Is it in real life?"
"Yes!~"
"Then no."
"Okay then, grumpy-pants.~ Well then. . . You're daydreaming. . . then your friend sprays you with water!~ What to do?~"
"Revenge!" I shouted. That's what I'l do if I have real friends, right?
"You think someone call your name!~ But there's nobody around!~ So what is it?~"
"Uh, I probably just thought it up or something."
"Do you often change the channels while watching TV?~"
"Nah. So how many questions are left?"
"A few more!~"
At that, I groaned.
"No."
"Do you think you might be a genius?~"
"YES! NOW GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!"
"Not with that kind of tone!~ Anyway. . . you don't get bothered by noise and ruckus nearby, do you?~"
"I was born and raised in Ponyville, what do you think?"
"I'll take that as a yes. You have a really important test tomorrow!~ What do you do?~"
"Relax and play on my Game Pony."
"Do you like being in the center of attention?"
"No."
"Have you had any hobbies for a long time?~"
"Yeah."
'Hurry up already!!!' I mentally screamed.
"Do you think lies are sometimes necessary?~"
"Yes?"
". . ."
"Um. . . hello? Voice thing? Was that the last question?"
". . . Er. . . Right!~ So sorry!~ And no, this is the second to last question!~ Are you ready?~"
"I need to pee." I whined.
". . . Er. . . Do you often forget to lock the door when you go out?~"
"No."
"Final question!!!~ You. . . um, see a cake that is past it's expiration date, but by only one day!~ What to do?~"
"I'll eat it!" Now that made me feel hungry too.
". . ."
Silence again, wonderful.
". . . "
"Can I pee now?"
". . . You're more of a relaxed person!~"
"Wait, what?!"
The voice sighed, "Nevermind!~ A relaxed person like you would be a Munchlax!!!"
What what what what what what what????!?!?!? WHAT?!
"Oh!~ You don't like that?~"
I opened my mouth to agree.
"WELL TOO BAD SUCKER!!!~" the voice took a deep breath and went on, "ANYWAY!!!~ ADVENTURES AWAIT!!!!~ BLAH BLAH BLAH!~ DON'T DIE!~ BE STRONG!~" the voice too a deep breath, "AND STUFF!~ K THANKS BYE!~"
And with that I blacked out.

"L-lord M-mew?" a squeaky voice stuttered.
"Don't call me that." snapped another.
"W-why is it s-so d-dark?"
"Because I like it that way. It's very mysterious. Anyway! Are the preparations complete?!"
"Y-yes, just like you said. A human-turned pokemon?"
"Good. And who's overseeing the turning process?"
"O-our new t-trainee, M-munna."
"Oh for Arceus's sake, really?!"
". . . "
". . . "
"P-please d-don't k-kill m-me."
"Oh Pelipper, do you know how much TIME I have to spend looking for that human to fix all of this mess!!!"
"N-no sir?"
"NEARLY CENTURIES!!! AND DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TIMES I NEEDED TO ASK DIGLIA TO STOP TIME FOR ME?!?" Mew screamed.
"NO SIR!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!!!"
"Heh, I liked it when you grovel for your life. Now shoo, go back to your stupid Post Office."
"O-okay." Pelipper waddled off into the darkness.
"Oh, and another thing, you better hope that stupid Munna doesn't screw up this time."
Pelipper stopped. "I h-hope s-so too s-sir."
