Pokémon Leaf Chronicles

Part 23. A Boiling Straw

I waltzed over towards the computers mainframe. Eyeing the controls with intent curiosity. The screen indicated the levels on a small map describing the ships main floors. Floor one being the main engine bay. Floor two being The Brig or Cargo hold and floor three the Command Deck.

Curious.

The Command Deck was where I originally woke up while onboard Haunebu. One floor that I had yet to explore inside the main deck of the spacecraft was floor one. If I didn't see my friends anywhere on the two main decks of the ship. Then they would have to be somewhere down below.

Red and Yellow have to be contained within the boiler room or the engine bay. If Solress wanted to separate me and my friends in the most secure hatch of when the craft abducted me below. They more than likely are there.

If I used the mainframe computer to encode the same key card. I can probably escape to the outside world by going down toward the main floor to rescue them.

The engine bay must be the most secure floor though. How can I program the key card to match a door that doesn't match the codes to the cell doors?

Then a thought ran swiftly through my neurons. I gazed upon the main blueprints of the map. Clicking on the open hologram. I zoomed in on the main terminals. There were four letters used to unlock the main door hatch below deck.

That's it!

The map had instructions on how to carefully program a key card but each number was carefully encrypted on each corner of the screen. Meaning, I couldn't obtain the locked numbers on each corner without a four digit numerical passcode.

This is going to be a little bit more difficult than I was expecting.

What passwords could open these doors, was the best question I could have asked myself? However my alluring fascination could not escape my glancing eyes towards the cell doors numbers.

Zero-zero.

And a number after the zeros has to indicate a number pattern that would best fit the password. The more I thought however; the more stressed out I became.

This is a waste of time. I need to find them immediately or we'll be stuck on this ship forever.

But the more I thought about them. The more distracted I became.

Virginia used her Pokémon in an attempt to release them from their cages. The Pokémon she used looked like a little five inch blue sprout. With legs and small red annular eyes and a cute little slit for a mouth. She also had three of four distinct leaves that stretched up along the top of her head.

"Razor-Leaf Oddish!" Yelped Virginia with a cute scratchy voice.

The nimble little Pokémon swayed her head swiftly toward the locks in question. Her leafs stiffened upward along her head like spikes. Releasing two of her leaflets as they cut across the top loop of the lock like a butter knife cutting cheese.

Her Oddish is quite powerful. I thought with amazement.

Releasing the lock of the poor little lizard Pokémon Charmander. Who stared with anxious but also thankful blue eyes. The creature used his small orange scaly hands to scratch along the bars to help Virginia. Squeaking and pleading to be released from his small little prison.

"Hey! Patience I need to get the lock loose."

"Awe you went for the Charmander? I can tell you like him. He's a cutie." I teased.

"Char-Char!" He cried with fervent innocence.

"Never thought I'd be the bad guy to be letting go of precious commodities for the Boss. But I guess I'll have to make an exception for you Charmander." Relented Virginia.
