Part 2 For a few minutes Cara, thought for a while before she really got going. She figured that Pikachu and Mewtwo might not get travel sick, of Mew probably wouldn't either, but because Mew floats in the air, and the boat travels he might not notice that the boat is moving and would have to catch up to it. So the best thing that Cara could think of was to put Mew in the cabin below. After going around in the water to make sure that Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Mew didn't have travel sickness; Cara then proceeded to 'Mew Island'. Pikachu loved it as the boat traveled went on it way. The sight and smells of the ocean was different from the sight and smells of the travel he had with Cara and that of his home. For Mewtwo the trip was different for him, instead of flying to and from the island, he now was traveling on a boat and it was for the first few minutes that he felt uncomfortable. For Cara the travel was vastly different for her. For her going to a place were more than likely that she wouldn't be chased down or anything. No more running away or fighting any TR members. From what Mewtwo had said to her 'Mew Island' was paradise. Only something that happened on the dock would prevent her from getting her rest from what happened. For Mew, being stuck in the cabin he could only see want was going outside through the windows of the portholes, but still didn't bother him, in fact he looked all around the cabin to see what was in there. From what Mew could see, Cara had bought more than enough food to feed her and themselves for a week or two. Although Mew was wondering were the boxes that contained the bedding and the other box, which he and the others were wondering about. Mew had looked all over the cabin and couldn't find it anywhere, but it didn't seem to bother Mew as he found ways to have fun with himself. After traveling between 1/4 and 1/3 the distance to 'Mew Island' Cara said, "Mewtwo do you think that you can handle the boat?" Mewtwo thought for moment and said, ["If you show me how to handle it, I think so."] Cara nodded and replied, "O.K." then pointing the handle next to the steering wheel, "This gives throttle gives the boat its speed, but no need to change the speed. I got it locked." as Cara indicted to the depressed button on the side of the throttle. Cara then said, "What I am holding is the steering wheel. To go right, you turn the wheel to the right and to go left you turn the wheel left and that is mostly it. The reason is that I ask you is want to check up on Mew and see if there is something so the he can stay with us up here." Mewtwo nodded and proceeded on with the travel. Cara went down the ladder and after she got off it she saw Mew looking through the window in one of the portholes. Cara giggled at Mew. Mew went to Cara and quickly said, "Mew, Mew, mew, Mew, MEW, Mew, Mew." Cara looked at Mew and as Mew was about to saw it again, when Cara said, "I understand what you said, the reason I didn't saw anything is you said it a just little bit too fast for me and I had to wait a bit to know what you said." Cara took a deep breath and said, "You want to know why you are down here Pikachu and Mewtwo can going anywhere? The reason is that you float and the others don't and I don't want you to chasing this boat." and then Cara said under her breathe, "If there was some way that Mew could somehow stay in one place." It was then that Mew came up to Cara and lightly grabbed on to the back of her jacket and said "Mew, Mew, mew, mew." Cara chuckled a bit and said, "Yes, you can do that." and then thought, <"I guess that Mew heard me when I whispered."> It was as they were going up that Mew said something and Cara agreed As Cara came up Pikachu and Mewtwo saw, what looked like, Mew clinging on Cara's jacket, but as they got a good look they noticed that Mew was just lightly holding on her jacket. Cara then said, "Mew said that this is the best way so that he can stay on the boat when he is outside." Mewtwo looked at Cara as she walked up to him and she said, "I can take over for the rest of our ride." Mewtwo nodded and as he passed Cara Mew lightly grabbed Mewtwo and stayed with him. When the boat got halfway to the island Cara stopped the boat, dropped the anchor and went down to rest and gets something to eat. Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Mew followed Cara. When Mewtwo got close enough to the stair, Mew floated straight down them. Pikachu looked at the stairs and backed away. Mewtwo looked at the stairs and proceeded to go down. Cara saw Mewtwo coming down and she said, "Mewtwo I think that it would..." Cara never got to finish her sentence, because Mewtwo slipped on one of the steps and fell down the rest of the steps. Cara went over to Mewtwo and asked, "Are you all right?" Mewtwo answered ["I am all right, the only thing that is hurt is my pride. I didn't expect that to happen. Why?"] Cara answered, "The only way to get down those steps is to go backwards. I was going to tell out that. It happened to me when I went down to see here, although it was a different boat that I looked at." Pikachu saw what happened to Mewtwo and heard what Cara had said and now knowing somewhat how to get down Pikachu proceeded to slowly jumping from step to step. Pikachu was so intent in going down that he didn't noticed Cara coming up until he felt Cara's hands pick him up and then place him on the floor. After that Cara, Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Mew ate their lunch. After eating lunch Cara leaned back and rested. Cara could hear the splashing sound of the water against the boat. Also she could smell the salt-water air. Cara had never been to the ocean and like the day she'd escaped the sights and smell was like paradise to her. Pikachu was looking around the cabin and also was wondering where the boxes were. Cara chuckled at Pikachu as he searched for them. Mew was just playing around, going up and down, searching and looking at things. Mewtwo on the other hand was having some problem. As Cara looked Mewtwo tried to fully stand up. Cara had tried to find the right boat that wasn't too big or too small. Unfortunately this was the only boat that came close. As Cara looked she knew that Mewtwo was over 6 feet tall, because the ceiling was that high. After trying a couple more times, went down and sat on the floor. Cara looked at Mewtwo and said, "I am sorry about this, but the other boats, that were on sale, were either too big or too small for us. Although there was one that I could have rented, but I figured that buying a boat would be better, because I don't know how long we be on 'Mew Island'." Mewtwo replied, ["Afterwards you could sell the boat at another port for a nice sum. Although you don't need the money."] Cara chuckled a bit and said, "You are right about the money. The amount from that site were those gem were found has given me enough money to last me several lifetimes over." Mewtwo looked at Cara as he saw her eating with one hand. He wondered what was wrong. Cara also held the bar with only one hand, but Mewtwo didn't worry, because if something were wrong with Cara she would tell them. The rest of the trip went uneventful and soon they were at 'Mew Island'. As Cara found out were she had to dock, Cara took the boat to the pier. Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Mew were wondering were the all of boxes were when Cara went down below lifted up the carpet a bit, pulled a ring, and a hatch in the floor opened up. Cara looked at the trio and said, "I was surprised about this, when I asked about where I could store things away." In a few minutes all the boxes were out of the boat and were placed in the main area of the building. Mewtwo went to Cara and said; ["This is where I had all the Pokemon Trainers sit until I came. That also included Ash."] Then Mewtwo went to another area and said, ["and this is were the we had the battle."] Cara looked at it and saw it. The area looked at open stadium, Cara hadn't seen one personally, but she had seen pictures of them and what trainers had told her before she got kidnapped. Cara also looked at the damage was done to the area and could still feel the emotions from that battle. Cara had felt rage, pain, anger, exhaustion, wonder, sorrow, and happiness. It was then that Cara said, "This is where the battle between you, your clones, and the trainer's Pokemon and were Ash paid the price so that everyone of the Pokemon would stop fighting." Mewtwo shrugged his shoulders and then said, ["Anyone can tell by looking that a battle was here."] Cara nodded and said, "It is more than that, I can feel what happened in the battle." Cara pointed to one place and said, "Over there two Gyarados fought over there, Ash's Pikachu refused to fight your Pikachu, over there." And Cara told Mewtwo who fought where. Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Mew were amazed at what Cara did. (Although Cara had a couple other tricks that she eventually show them.) After a while Pikachu, Mewtwo and Mew saw the ground starting to shake and then lift and then Cara said, "I believe that this area should be gotten rid of. Too many bad memories are here." The task was almost getting to Cara if Mewtwo didn't help her. After the Stadium was broken up the chunks were scattered into the sea. As they looked all that was left was the soil with bits of the stadium. Cara collapsed as after everything was done with the stadium. Pikachu, Mewtwo had a big sweat drop and Mew giggled as they heard Cara's stomach growled. After Cara had something to eat, Mewtwo showed them around the place. He showed them the cloning chambers were the Pokemon were cloned. Mew had seen this place before and told the others about James Jessie and Meowth and what they had done. After what Mew had said Mewtwo continued with the tour Mewtwo thought it was best that Cara's bedding to have near the big room were main area with pool of water was. Pikachu and Mew were curious as to what was in that box. Although Mewtwo knew that Cara had a surprise for them he was also curious to what was in there. As Pikachu and Mew were about to find out Cara slammed the doors on them and then for some reason something was preventing them from getting any further. Pikachu and Mew looked at Mewtwo and he said, ["I believe that it is something that Cara can do. It must deal with her natural born talent. We can asked Cara what is after she is finished."] Pikachu and Mew nodded their heads an agreement. Several hours later... Cara came out from the area, wiped the sweat from her forehead, turned around, shut the doors, put her hand on it and then walk over to the table and sat down on one of the chairs. Mewtwo went over to Cara and asked, ["What did you do to prevent Pikachu and Mew from following you? Although I figured that is has something to do with you natural born gift."] Cara answered, "You are right, I found out about a year or two afterwards that I could attract Pokemon, so a few days later I thought that if I could attract Pokemon, why can't I do the exact opposite. After some trials and errors I finally mastered attracting and repelling Pokemon. Although, I could understand, the Pokemon were very angry with me during that time. They didn't afterwards." It was then that Pikachu tried to get past the door and felt the same thing as he tried to find out earlier in the day. Mewtwo looked at what was happening to Pikachu and said, ["You can do it inanimate object too?] Cara nodded and said, Yes, I can do that as well. Although it is not as strong as I can do it, but as long I am in a certain distance any Pokemon will not be able to anything about it." It was some time later that Cara went to sleep. Cara continued to go doing whatever she was doing for the next two or three days. After that Cara led Pikachu, Mewtwo and Mew through the doors and they all gasped at what they saw. Mewtwo looked at Cara and said, ["So that was in the box. Plants."] Cara nodded and said, "I saw a place in town and saw all sort of different trees and plants. Once I found out what I needed I went over and bought several different fruit trees and vegetables. Also I bought some herbs." The trio went looking at the plants that she had planted and grew. On one side there were a grove of apple trees and growing right beside that was grapefruit trees and both of them were over 4 feet tall. Opposite them were some oranges trees, also around the same height at the apple and grapefruit trees. Pikachu had found the patch of strawberries growing and it looked like that they could be picked in a few days. Mewtwo was going to asked Cara how she did it and then suddenly remembered that she had a Bulbasaur, an Ivysaur and a Venusaur in her and they could do growth. She must have done that in order to get all the plants to go so fast. He also noticed that some of the plants had been watered. So Mewtwo thought that Cara had used one of her Water Pokemon abilities to water the plants. After looking around, Mewtwo said, ["Cara what you did was..."] he never finished his sentence, because as he turned around Cara had collapsed on the ground. Pikachu was the first to get to Cara and he said, "Pika, Pika." Mewtwo listened as he went over, expecting to hear Cara's stomach growling was the case when Cara fainted and she used up too much energy doing something, only he didn't hear anything. Mewtwo kneeled down and noticed how pale she was. Mewtwo had accidentally put his hand on Cara's forehead and said ["Cara's forehead is hot, she has a fever. Mew I want you to go retrieve Cara's backpack, I need a couple items from it."] Mew nodded and went to get Cara's backpack. (Author's Note: For this point on you will be able to understand what Pikachu and Mew will be saying, because Cara will be unconscious until almost the end of this chapter.) Mewtwo waited until Mew had brought back Cara's backpack and listened to as he heard Pikachu as he said <<"Cara, Cara.">> It was then that Mew came back with the backpack, Mewtwo looked as Mew floated the backpack towards them. Mew came up to Mewtwo and giggled and said, <<"Here.">> Mewtwo went and was about to open up the backpack and noticed that the backpack was a bit lighter than before. At first he thought it Mew was causing it, but when it was on the ground, he looked at Mew and saw the Mew was puzzled at what Mewtwo was doing. It was then that Mewtwo and Mew heard a groan coming from Cara. Mewtwo went over and saw that Pikachu had touched her left arm. Mewtwo pulled back the sleeve of her top and saw the biggest, reddest, most inflamed sore on her arm. Mewtwo looked at it and thought, <"How did Cara get this?"> It was then that Mewtwo realized that when Cara had that fight with the deranged TR member and they both crashed through the bench and one of them screamed, it was Cara. Cara must have gotten a scratch or a small cut and somehow got infected. Mewtwo went into the backpack got a couple of things out. Mewtwo also noticed that a few of the bottles of healing potions were missing, so Mewtwo figured that Cara had taken them in order to get were she was with plants. Mewtwo first sprayed the wound, bandaged it up and then gave her a bottle of healing potion and tried to make sure that Cara didn't spill any of the liquid as it went down her throat. It was then that Mewtwo noticed something else. Pikachu turned around and put his paws over his eyes as Mewtwo took off Cara's top. Mewtwo and Mew both giggled at Pikachu and then Mewtwo said, ["You don't have to avert your eyes, Cara is wearing a sleeveless top underneath the top that she was wearing."] Pikachu turned and looked at Cara and saw that she was wearing a lighter colored top over the one she was wearing. Pikachu looked at the sore on Cara's arm and asked, <<"How did Cara get this and why didn't she tell us about it?">> Mewtwo replied, ["Remember when Cara was fighting the last TR member and they both crashed and broke that bench and although we didn't know who it but we did hear one of them scream. It was more than likely that is was Cara who got scratched or a small cut from there. As to why Cara didn't tell us, we have to wait until Cara regain her conscious and tells us."] It was then that Mewtwo realized that the bed was too far away from the waterfall so Mewtwo teleported the bed to the waterfall and put Cara on the bed. Mew and Mew decided to look at the garden again, so that they could relax after what had happened to Cara just a few minutes ago. It was then that Pikachu came running in almost screaming on the top of his lungs, when Pikachu got to them he was out of breath and quickly and fragmentary said, <<"Huff, Cara, huff puff, water, puff, out of her. Sigh.">> Mewtwo kneeled down to Pikachu and said ["Pikachu, I want you to take a few deep breathes, slow down, and repeat what you said."] Pikachu took a few deep breaths and said, <<"I don't know what is causing it, but water is coming out of her.">> Mewtwo was wondering what Pikachu was saying, looked at him and said ["You are saying that Cara's mouth is drooling."] Pikachu shook his head and said <<"No, water is coming out of Cara. You have to see what is going on.">> So Mewtwo and Mew followed Pikachu and saw that water was slowly trickling coming out of her hands. As the trio looked Mew went closer to find out why this was happening. As he got closer he noticed that was slowing down. As far as he could tell it was something similar to the flare-ups that she had, but Mewtwo couldn't stop as with the flare-up. So Mewtwo went over to Cara and then noticed that the water had stop. So Mewtwo went back and saw that the water started to flow again. So Mewtwo went back to Cara and find that the water had stop again. Mewtwo then thought, <"So that is going on. Her fever might be causing it and it looks like that we have to take turns staying with her so that nothing bad would happen."> Mewtwo turned to Pikachu and Mew and said ["I looks like that the fever is causing some problems and we have to take turns staying with her so nothing would happen to her."] Pikachu then asked <<"What do you mean?">> Mewtwo replied ["What had happening is not to bad, but if one of us is not here one of her other abilities could come up and cause some damage."] Pikachu asked <<"Like what?">> Mewtwo answered ["Like fire could come from her and burn everything and anything down and including herself."] Pikachu and Mew both nodded their heads. Mewtwo than said ["I will stay with her, after I have change the sheets. And like the bed dry out."] Pikachu watched in awe as Mewtwo took off the bedding and then took Cara aside and let her lay on him. As Mewtwo thought, he knew that once Cara regains her conscious, she would start up where she left off and then she might get sick again and the whole thing would start over again. It was then that Mewtwo had an idea, but he would have to wait until tomorrow. Every now and again Mewtwo check the bed to see if it had dried off and when it was Mewtwo put the some new dry sheets and laid Cara on the bed and laid right next to her. Later on in the day Pikachu took over for Mewtwo and when it was time for everyone to go to sleep Mewtwo and Mew came up and they all cuddle up next to her. The next morning... Mewtwo had woken up by the noise that Pikachu and Mew were doing in the pool of water. The splashing and giggling by both of them was not rather loud, but after 5, 10 minutes of it one has to wake up. Mewtwo woke up and looked at Cara. He felt her forehead and it still felt hot, so he took a face cloth went over to the pool and got it soaking wet, wring it and then went back to Cara and put it on her forehead. Mewtwo looked at Pikachu and Mew and replied ["This is for her fever."] Mewtwo then he went over to the backpack and got a couple of things out. He then took off the bandage, sprayed the sore on her arm, bandaged it up again and then gave her healing potion, making sure none of the liquid spilled out. After Mewtwo had finished, he looked at Pikachu and Mew and said ["I am going to go away for awhile, I am getting something that would help Cara. So until I get back one of you has to stay with Cara."] About an hour or two later... Mewtwo had came back to 'Mew Island' with three companions when they noticed ghostly shapes floating around as Mewtwo looked at them he knew that both Pikachu and Mew were not doing their jobs. So Mewtwo turned to the trio and said ["I have to do something first and then I will get you to where you are needed. It shouldn't take me any more than a few minutes."] The trio nodded. Mewtwo went through the corridors to get to Cara. As he traveled, he noticed that the images were of Cara's past. Some of the illusions were so real that he stopped, only to realize what they were and continued on. When he got there, he saw that neither Pikachu nor Mew were anywhere to be seen. So Mewtwo went looking about to find either Pikachu or Mew. As he got to the where Cara was sleeping he heard something. It was Pikachu shouting out <<"Help, Help">> and every now and again sending thunder bolts to attract attention. Mewtwo had seen the faint thunder bolt as he got close to Pikachu and what he saw he didn't like. Pikachu was in the gaping hole that was left when Ash had done when he had freed all the Pokemon. Mewtwo helped Pikachu, after he had got rid of some of the grappling arms that Pikachu got caught in. Pikachu then said <<"Thank you for getting me out I don't know how long I would have lasted.">> Mewtwo replied ["I am grateful that you were not badly hurt, but why did you leave Cara alone for so long?"] Pikachu said <<"I just wanted to get stretch my legs, so I left Cara alone for a few minutes to look around. Only as I got close to that hole, it crumbled a bit and I fell in. So what I did was kept calling for help and started to throw every few minutes a Thunder Shock.">> Mewtwo then said, ["You better stay with Cara until I bring our three guest over and they could help us."] Mewtwo was about to leave when he realized that Mew was also missing, so he turned to Pikachu and asked ["Have you seen Mew anywhere?"] Pikachu shaking his head no. Mewtwo then said ["After I have got our guest here, I will go looking for Mew."] Pikachu went over to Cara and lay down beside her, as Mewtwo went over to his three guests. As the trio waited for Mewtwo, one of them said "I wonder why Mewtwo had brought us over?" One of the other answered, "I do too." The third one said, "It is something else that I am wondering about. What it is, is what cause those images that floated about?" The other two nodded in agreement. It was them that Mewtwo came and took teleport them to the room where Cara and Pikachu were staying. Pikachu look in awe, as three Pokemon were being teleported near him and Cara. One of the Pokemon Pikachu had to look up, as he seemed very small to this Pokemon. Pikachu shook his head as he saw a Bulbasaur, a Venusaur, and an Squirtle. Pikachu was impressed which the size of the Venusaur compared to himself. Venusaur was over 6 1/2 feet tall compared to his just less than 1 1/2 feet tall height. Although Pikachu was more comfortable with the Bulbasaur and Squirtle as they were only slightly taller than him. The trio looked at Pikachu and Cara and Venusaur angrily said, <<"You brought us her to see a human.">> Mewtwo calmly replied ["No, I brought you here to finish off what she had started."] Mewtwo then show them the garden that was were stadium was and they saw the assortment of the plants and trees. Venusaur then looked at Mewtwo and said, <<"That human did all this.">> Mewtwo answered, ["Yes, she did during the last few days she has been here. And her name is Cara."] Bulbasaur and Squirtle wondering about Mewtwo had said and then Bulbasaur asked <<"You want to finished what Cara had started.">> Mewtwo nodded. Squirtle came up to Mewtwo and asked, <<"So why did you bring me here?">> Mewtwo answered ["Those plants and trees need to be watered and there hasn't been any rain since we have been here. Although if you want you can stay with Cara as I ask Bulbasaur and Venusaur to work on the garden and then I look for our missing companion."] Squirtle nodded and went over to Cara as she slept on the bed. As Mewtwo asked the two Grass-type Pokemon what he wanted them to do, Squirtle looked at Pikachu and then asked, <<"Did Cara make those images that we saw earlier?">> Pikachu answered, <<"Yes, Cara did that and we left her for a few minutes the first time water came out of her. I was scared when that happened. So that is why one of us has to stay with Cara so nothing bad will happen to her.">> Pikachu saw the look on Squirtle's face and said, <<"Cara can do many things and besides Mewtwo will be telling all of you everything you need to know.">> Squirtle went to Cara and saw how pale she looked and asked <<"Why is Cara like is?">> Pikachu answered <<"The reason why Cara is like this is because she has a sore on her left arm and didn't do anything and then she got sick.">> And showed Squirtle the bandage that covered the sore and Pikachu noticed that it wasn't as swollen as he first saw it. After Mewtwo had finished talking to the two Grass-type Pokemons, he went to find Mew. As Mewtwo looked around as he searched for Mew. He first checked outside and then all the rooms to see where he was. It was until he got close to the cloning chamber that he heard something weakly say, <<"Help, Help.">> And Mewtwo quickly went to the source. As Mewtwo got to Mew he saw that Mew was all tangled up in the mechanical arms and cables that were snarled all over the place. Mewtwo saw how tangled he was, so Mewtwo had to be careful in getting out Mew. Mewtwo had to keep his cool as he moved either a cable or arm, although it was hard, because as he moved a mechanical arm or cable another one would get tangled up. After what felt like an eternity Mewtwo finally got Mew out. Mewtwo angrily shouted ["What were you doing there?"] Mew meekly replied <<"I was going to help Pikachu, when I got caught by in this. I am sorry if I made you angry.">> Mewtwo realized what he had done and said ["I am not angry at you, I was angry at what was happening as I was getting you out."] Mew breathed a sigh of relief and the two went back to Cara. It was then that Mewtwo was about to destroy the infernal machine only to have Mew asked <<"What are you going to do?">> Mewtwo answered ["To get rid of this thing, why?"] Mew replied <<"Isn't is holding up the ceiling where Cara is sleeping?">> Mewtwo looked up and saw that the cloning machine was holding up part of the ceiling and he said ["You are right something have to been done before this is destroyed."] After they got back to Cara, Mewtwo then explained everything to Bulbasaur, Venusaur, and Squirtle want Cara could do and what had happened during their travels with her. Mewtwo was grateful that Cara chosen the right bed as the Bulbasaur and Squirtle were going to stay with Cara as all, but Venusaur, were going to sleep with after at night. The next day... As it was Mewtwo's turn to stay with Cara, he decided to look at the printout that he did when they were back at the compound. Pikachu went up to Mewtwo and asked <<"What are you doing?">> Mewtwo looked at Pikachu and said ["I am reading some of Professor Sage's notes. I am trying to find out as much as I can to help Cara."] Pikachu looked at Mewtwo and said <<"Reading, what is that?">> Mewtwo showed Pikachu paper that he was reading to Pikachu and said ["This is what I am reading."] Pikachu looked at the paper and saw a bunch of lines, circles, and squiggly lines all over and said <<"So, what does it say and how can you read?">> Mewtwo replied ["I answer the second one first. I can read is because I am very highly intelligent. I had built this place and that cloning machine all by myself. What I was reading, was that Cara had something similar happened to her while she was a prisoner with TR"] Pikachu said <<"Huh!?">> Mewtwo nodded and read to Pikachu ["It had been a week that since we discovered 'The Project' had received a scratch a few days ago before that and we didn't think much about it when it happened and continued with the exercise. Only if we knew what was going to happen we would have treated 'The Project' and would not have this problem. 'The Project' wasn't feeling well as she went to do her exercise. Also she was, what we believed, not doing her best. About half way through the exercise 'The Project' had collapsed, but after some incentives 'The Project' continued until she fainted. At first we thought she was fooling around, faking it so that she can escape. Only when I came to her and felt her forehead, I knew that she wasn't faking. 'The Project' had a fever. After putting on the Damper and back to her room. I saw that the scratch had become inflamed and infected."] It was then that Mewtwo took a breather and continued reading to Pikachu ["After taking care of the infected scratch, we watched and waited until 'The Project' regained consciousness which was today. Over the next few days the exercise regime will be lessened until 'The Project' is at full strength."] Pikachu then said, <<"So something like this has happened before. I wonder what could cause it. Cara seems to be healthy, except when she does do much and needs to eat.">> Mewtwo chuckled, nodded at Pikachu and then said ["I was about to get to that. What I am about to read to you is several days later. As I knew before that 'The Project' will not get any human illness. So I had check I had found out that 'The Project' can get any Pokemon illness and if 'The Project' even receive a small scratch and it is not taken care of, the exact same thing will happen again. So I recommended that after every exercise to make sure that there is no scratches on her and to treat them immediately if there is any."] Pikachu gasped at what Mewtwo had told him and said <<"Does it explain why Cara had those... those...">> Pikachu couldn't think of the word to explain what had happen to Cara, when Mewtwo said ["mini flare-ups."] Pikachu had a puzzled look and Mewtwo said ["Well..."] scratching his head ["That is the only thing that I could think of, and no it doesn't explain about them. I think is because Cara had that Damper on her and that stop them."] It was then that Mewtwo looked outside and than psychically moved Cara to the garden and said ["I think it would do Cara some good if she get some fresh air and sunlight."] Pikachu followed Mewtwo as they went to the garden. Mewtwo place Cara against the wall and let her rest there. Bulbasaur went over to Cara and looked at her and asked <<"Why did you bring here.">> Mewtwo sighed and said ["I thought it would be a good idea for Cara to get some fresh air and sunshine. Also I put her here because the trees are not big enough to hold her up."] It was than that Venusaur came to Mewtwo and said <<"If you want Cara can lie the side of on me.">> Mewtwo nodded and Venusaur went to a more sunny location and Mewtwo put Cara on his side. About 15 minutes later, Mew came to the garden and went over to Cara and noticed something and said <<"Is Cara suppose to breathe like this?">> Mewtwo went over to Cara and heard breathing had become shallower and she was wheezing. Mewtwo knew that he had to get Cara back inside. It was then that he teleported himself and Cara back to her bed. All, but Venusaur, shortly followed Mewtwo and Cara to see what had happened to her. Mewtwo looked and said ["It looks like Cara can only stay outside for a few minutes. And we will do it tomorrow.] All the others nodded in agreement. The next day... Mew was with Cara as it was his turn to stay with her, it was then that Mewtwo came over and Mew said, <<"Shhh, Cara is asleep and I don't think we should disturb her.">> Mewtwo felt Cara's forehead and he noticed that although she had the fever it was cooler to the touch. Mewtwo then quickly and quietly took off the bandage and sprayed the wound, bandaged it up and then gave her a bottle of healing potion and this continued for the next few days with the occasional outing so Cara can get some sunshine and fresh air. The next few days... It was Mewtwo's turn looking after Cara, when she had opened her eyes. Mewtwo didn't react to it as it happened before were Cara's eyes opened up and the close again. He watched and waited when he saw Cara's eyes blink. It was then Cara got up and stretched her arms and yawned. Cara looked at Mewtwo and said, "What are you doing here?" Mewtwo answered ["Keeping watch over you, because you had fainted and you remained unconscious until now. We had to because if nobody did it who knows what would have happened."] Cara looked at Mewtwo perplexingly and asked, "What do you mean by that?" Mewtwo answered, ["Well, something had happened. Just after you had fainted and I had bandaged the sore on your arm, water came out of you, actuality it was coming out of your fingers, so we found out that if one of us stayed with you it would have not happened. Although something happened only once more and illusions started showing up."] It was then that Cara was staring to get up and Mewtwo said ["I think you should rest today and get your strength back."] Cara then said, "I have to finished what I had started." Mewtwo noticed that Cara was getting dizzy, stopped her and said ["You don't need to that. I got some help for it. Besides it will be a while before you are up to full strength."] It was then that all but Venusaur came to see Cara. "Bulba." "Squirtle." Cara looked at Bulbasaur and Squirtle, then at Mewtwo, then back at them again and then Cara said "You're clones." Mewtwo was surprised at what Cara had said and asked ["How can you tell?"] Cara chuckled and said, "It is one of my natural abilities, and I can tell anything if a Pokemon has any special abilities." It was then that Pikachu, Mewtwo and Mew heard something similar coming from her stomach and big sweat drops came down the back of their heads. Bulbasaur and Squirtle were puzzled at what they heard and Cara replied, "It is just my stomach growling, telling me that I am hungry." Mewtwo nodded and said ["That is true. I will get something for you to eat."] After Cara had eaten, she rested. Later that day... As Cara slowly got up, Mewtwo saw her and Cara said "I want to go outside the fresh air should do me some good." Mewtwo came up to Cara and replied ["Let me help you get outside."] As soon as they got outside to the garden, Venusaur said "Saur, Saur, Venusaur, Saur, Saur. Cara answered, "Yes, I would like to lay on you side." Venusaur was shocked at what Cara had said and Mewtwo replied ["I told you what I said about Cara was true."] As Cara had rested, she had noticed how far the plants have grown. The trees were nearly fully-grown and that all of the other plants were finished. It was then that Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Pikachu had come up to Cara and gave her some berries from some of the bushed and vines. Cara steadily eat them. It was a day or two before that Cara and Bulbasaur, Venusaur and Squirtle were going be separating, so over the last few days Cara had helped with the Garden. So what Cara did was that she held both Bulbasaur's and Venusaur's vines in her hands and with her help the garden were finished. Now that it was complete the only thing that was need was some Bug Pokemon to pollinate the flowers on the trees. It was then that Cara stood in the middle of the garden, close her eyes and stood there. After several minutes Cara opened her eyes and said, "What I had done was, I called out for any and all Bug Pokemon and hopefully they should be coming soon. I think maybe an hour or so." In about half an hour or so several Butterfree had came and started to pollinate the flowers. As the others watched Cara had noticed that on of them had a scarf on it was a bit tattered and dirty but you could not mistake it. That Butterfree had a Pokemon Trainer. After the Butterfree had done they're work. Cara thanked them and let them go on their way. Cara also asked them if they could return to the Island so that the trees should still produce fruit and that they could have some of the fruit to eat, so that the fruit won't spoil and the trees don't get sick and die and if it is possible to get any other Flying Type Pokemon to help as well. After Mewtwo had came back from taking Bulbasaur, Venusaur, and Squirtle to a secret hiding place, he went to Cara and asked ["So where are we going?"] Cara answered, "After the boat is sold, we are going back to Pallet Town." With that Cara, Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Mew got on the boat and went to a nearby Port town. To Be Continued. ------------------------------------------------------------- Author Notes: This is the first time that all the Pokemon were talking, although it is not the first time for the two of the Pokemon. If you remember that Mewtwo and Mew were talking in Chapter 3, although if you remember I didn't tell what they were until Mewtwo and Mew caught up with Cara, but I suspect that, if not all, some of you knew that they were Pokemon and that they were Mewtwo and Mew. Is this the last time you will be able to read them talking? No, not by a long shot, there will a translation in other Chapters. As for Cara what else could do, you will have to wait until Chapter 11. The next Chapter is a bit more history about Cara and Team Rocket. -------------------------------------------------------------
