Finally, after a long walk, Pikachu and I arrive at what looks like a large crack in the ground.

"Do you think this is where Butterfree's son is?" I ask Pikachu.

However, before he can say anything, we hear a small voice coming from inside the crack. "Mommy? Is that you? Whoever you are, can you please help me?"

Pikachu looks at me, and we nod to each other. This is definitely where Butterfree's son is. Cautiously, we walk to the edge and look down. Near the very bottom, I see a small green bug Poke'mon. Caterpie. It's trying hard to climb up the narrow crack, but can't get move further than a few feet before falling.

"Caterpie, are you Ok?" I call down.

"Yeah..." Is the bug Poke'mon's answer. "Can you please get me out of here, whoever you are? It's dark down here, and I'm scared!"

Pikachu and I exchange glances, both of us wondering the same thing: How are we going to get down there? It's too narrow for both of us to go.

Then I get an idea. "Pikachu, I have a plan. Please wait here and be ready to pull me out." I say, carefully climbing down into the crack with my front feet on one wall and my back feet on the other. I make very slow progress, because I don't want to fall all the way down.

Finally, I get to where I'm just a few feet from Caterpie. However, the opening has gotten very narrow. I might be able to get in there, but then again, I might not be able to get back out. I stop a moment and think this through. I don't want to risk us both getting stuck...Then I get another idea! Looking down, I call out.

"Caterpie, climb as high as you can and try to grab my tail!" I say, stretching my tail as far down as possible.

The bug Poke'mon tries and tries, but can't seem to reach me. "I'm never gonna see my Mommy again!" he cries.

"Don't give up, Caterpie..Just keep on trying." I say, forcing myself to climb down just a little more.

The bug Poke'mon climbs up the wall again and almost falls. Only this time, he gains a hold on my tail with his suction cup like feet. "Good! Hold on, Caterpie!" I say as we slowly begin to make our way to the top.

"Thank you!" The bug cries joyfully.

As I climb, the opening begins to widen, and Caterpie is able to crawl onto my back. We're just a few feet from the opening, but I can't climb anymore- I'm exhausted. "Pikachu, give us your tail!" I call up.

A few seconds after, the zig zagged tail drops down. It's pretty close, but I still need to jump to grab it. Turning my head back, I look at Caterpie, who's still holding onto my back.

"Hang tight, Caterpie." I warn him.

The bug Poke'mon nods at this. I put as much of my weight as I can against the back wall, then kick off of it with my back feet, sending Caterpie and I flying up. My plan works perfectly, because as we're going up, I'm able to reach out and grab Pikachu's tail.

"Got it!" I call up.

"Hold on...I'll pull you up!" Pikachu calls down, as he works to get us out of the crack. Eventually, we near the edge, and I am able to grip it, to climb out. Pikachu takes my paws and helps me out.

"Thank you guys so much for saving me!" Caterpie says again.

Pikachu and I beam and smile at each other. "You're welcome, Caterpie."

"C'mon now. Let's get you back to your Mom." Pikachu says.

Caterpie eagerly agrees, so we start back to where Butterfree is. I feel surprised, because we've been walking for quite a while, yet no Poke'mon have attacked us.

Just as I'm thinking this, we see another Pidgey. Only this one hasn't seen me, so I sneak over to him and Tackle him from behind. The bird Poke'mon faints, and we continue on.

A few minutes later, we see what looks to be a clearing just beyond some trees. We quickly exit through there, and soon find our way to Butterfree.

Caterpie goes right to her, and both Mother and son share a tearful, joyful reunion.

"Thank you so much for rescuing my baby." Butterfree says happily. "Please accept these as a token of my appreciation." Before Pikachu or I can say anything, the Butterfly Poke'mon comes forward and gives us a bunch of berries.

I recognize two of them as Oran berries, but the rest are a mystery to me.

"Gosh...thanks, Ms. Butterfree!" Pikachu says.

"What are your names?" Caterpie suddenly asks.

Pikachu looks down at the small caterpillar like Poke'mon. "My name's Pikachu, and this is my best friend, Heather." he says brightly.

I can't help but feel touched that while we've barely met, Pikachu's already calling me his best friend.

"Heather and Pikachu...Cool!" Caterpie just stares at us, with an adoring, admiring look on his face. "You guys are my heros!" he gushes.

Pikachu and I both blush slightly. This is a little embarrassing. But it's Ok. I feel really good that we could help these two.

We all say our goodbyes, then Pikachu and I go on our way.

--

Pikachu and I are standing in front of a small little house. It's so cute. Like nothing I've ever seen before.

Pikachu turns and smiles at me. "Hey Heather, if you've got nowhere to live, you can stay here with me." he offers.

My eyes shimmer with happiness as I turn and look at him. "R-really? I could?" Pikachu smiles and nods.

"Ok!" I exclaim happily. I'm getting this funny feeling right now. What is it? Oh! Maybe this is how it feels to want to wag your tail!

It grows quiet between Pikachu and I, then he turns to me again. "You did a great job today, Heather. I was really impressed. Today made me realize something. You and me, we're a good team. I believe there's nothing we can't do - no matter who's standing in the way."

Pikachu pauses, looking thoughtful, and I wait for him to say more. "I want to do something to help victims of the recent natural disasters. Heather, I want you to help me."

I blink. "Pikachu, how could I be of any help? I barely know anything about being a Poke'mon..I didn't even know I was one until today!" I protest.

Pikachu just smiles at me. "Don't be so modest, Heather. You were great today! Besides that, we'll work on discovering the truth about why you became a Poke'mon. We'll do it together, Ok?"

I hesitate, then nod my head. "Ok.."

"Today gave me an idea, Heather." Pikachu goes on. He looks a little nervous. "...Want to form a rescue team? To help Poke'mon in trouble due to natural disasters?"

I pause a moment to think about this. No wonder Pikachu looked so nervous; this is a huge deal! Helping today did make me feel really good inside..Maybe helping other Poke'mon would make me feel even better- and keep me from going crazy trying to remember my human life.

I look up at Pikachu, a smile on my face. "Yeah! Ok!"

Pikachu jumps up happily. "I'm so glad you agree it's a good idea! Now there's just one more thing."

I look eagerly at Pikachu. "What's that?"

"All rescue teams have a team name. What should we call ours?"

I think about this. Our name needs to be good...It needs to describe us, and what we're all about. I frown. But what could we use to describe us? Wait a minute. What was it that Caterpie called us earlier? Oh yeah...Heros! That's it!

"I know exactly what we should call our team!" I exclaim excitedly.

Pikachu looks at me in interest. "What?"

"Let's call the team "Poke' Heros!" I suggest, hoping my partner will like this as much as I do.

Fortunately, his face brightens at this, so I can guess Pikachu likes it. "Poke' Heros. That's a great idea! Ok! As of right now, Heather, we are a rescue team. Let's always try to do our best!"

I nod and give Pikachu a salute with my little paw. "I promise!"

"Me too." Pikachu says, then he yawns and stretches his paws. "Today was a big day. So let's start our rescue work tomorrow. Oh, and I'll show you around Poke'mon Square too."

I nod in agreement, also yawning. "Good plan. Goodnight, Poke' Heros member, Pikachu." I say as we go inside our little home and lay down.

Pikachu smiles at me. "Goodnight, Poke' Heros member, Heather. See ya in the morning!"

Soon after, we fall asleep, each of us dreaming about what the next day has in store for us.
Part 3...the end xD
