RE: Seven Days of Terror (it's chapter 11 time!!!)
Hi, everyone! It's time for the probably-not-gonna-be-weekly status report!
Work on chapter twelve is best described as slow and steady. Word count right now is a little over 1,500. There's not too much done, but it's quality stuff, I think. ^-^
I reeeeeeeeally want to get this done, so it's very possible I will combine the bulk of chapter 13 with chapter twelve, creating one final mega-chapter for you guys to read before this story is finally done. The remainder of chapter 13 could be used as an epilogue, or perhaps I'll just throw it in at the end of chapter 12, giving you guys even more to go through, lol.
I want this story done as much as the rest of you. Shirley's getting anxious!

RE: Seven Days of Terror
Hello, everyone.
I have to put this on hiatus for a while. I'm having both computer as well as internet problems, and the Platinum walkthrough has to get done first.
I will try to get something done once my computer gets working again, but until further notice, work on it will be even slower than it normally is, lol.
I apologize to any of you anticipating the ending. I know, I know, I want this story done as much as you guys do.

RE: Seven Days of Terror (officially on hiatus)
Hope you guys aren't looking for an update because it's not likely my computer is ever going to get functional again, and if it is, it's unlikely that it'll be any time soon.
However...
The Platinum guide is nearly finished. I may just cut my losses and start chapter twelve over again once I get that done. I don't know what the word count was when my computer went down the crapper, but I can remember most of what it is I'd written about... I think.
Of course, actually finishing the guide has to come first. As I said, it's just about done. I don't think I have to ask any of you what I should do, but I felt I should let you guys know that starting chapter twelve over is a possibility.
Anyway, I did not foresee my computer dying on me, so this story will obviously not be done by July, so I apologize for that.
In even worse news, a horrible truth has dawned on me:
Shirley is a _bad_ choice for a main character. She's too young. She would be fine if I hadn't planned on making her the main character, but... as of right now it appears that the second fic isn't going to happen.
HOWEVER...
Just because I'm probably abandoning the Mystery Dungeon fic doesn't mean that I'm going to abandon Shirley... or writing a second fic in general. I'm always listening for cool ideas to write about. Shirley will definitely be in it... though probably not as a Buneary, lol.

RE: Seven Days of Terror (_may_ be continuing soon)
Thata about a third of the size of an average book. Normal sized book is say 3-400 pages, 300 words a page. 300x3000= 300,000
This could actually be published as a short novel lol, its definately good enough. Shame its just a fanfic, so its all about pokemon.
Seriously PMJ, I think you should go into writing. If its a hobby you cleraly enjoy, why don't you try writing stuff? I'm actually writing a book at the moment, and althgough its difficult with school and homework and stuff, it's a cool thing to do. You don't hav to worry abotu school or homework, maybe you should give it a try?

RE: Seven Days of Terror (not a new chapter, but still)
Yeah, I like writing, but I suck at it.
[/late]
At the time of this writing, chapter 12's word count is roughly 278.
That's right. I'm starting over. 27772 is back, baby 8]
I hope to be done by the end of September at the latest.

RE: Seven Days of Terror (not a new chapter, but still)
Hey y'all. Just wanted to let you guys know that chapter 12 is going to be pretty short. So short, in fact, chapter 13 may serve as an epilogue of sorts.
So this story that took five years to finish (lol) is going to end on a short note. ;D

RE: Seven Days of Terror (not a new chapter, but still)
Staraptor: I have another big story planned but it's not likely it'll be started for a very long time.
Man, we need spoiler tags.
For those of you who have forgotten, here's a (slightly wordy) recap of the entire story. It has spoilers through chapter 11, so if you haven't read it, you probably shouldn't read the rest of this post.
Giovanni is crying because Ash Ketchum owns him all day long, so he assigns tells Jessie and James to kill him. Giovanni disguises his plan as a vacation for Ash and his friends, hoping the Team Rocket we all know and love will do them all in, killing five or six birds with one stone. Little does Jessie and James know that Giovanni has secretly planned their demise as well.
Convinced by his family that nothing could POSSIBLY go wrong (despite not being able to bring their Pokemon), Ash agrees to go on this vacation to Giovanni's private island retreat. Brock, Tracey, May, and Max all join up right away, and after a bit of begging (and eluding the police), Misty comes as well.
Meanwhile, Jessie, James, and Meowth (who they smuggled in one of their suitcases) have been familiarizing themselves with Giovanni's island home. They meet a mysterious girl named Shelly who claims to be robbing Boss Rocket blind and living the good life while Giovanni's away. Shelly and Jessie quickly become friends, and they begin spending all their time together.
James begins to get suspicious of Giovanni's true motives. Jessie initially dismisses it as paranoia, but James eventually convinces her that everything isn't all roses.
Soon enough, Ash and friends arrive at the mansion. Ash is especially suspicious of Shelly, unwilling to accept her claim that she's a treasure hunter at face value.
During the first night after the arrival of Ash and his friends, Jessie wakes up from a terrible nightmare, and it is revealed that these nightmares have been occurring for the past several nights. Shelly comforts her and Jessie tells Shelly that she and James have decided to abandon Giovanni's mission. Shelly (who is later revealed to have been hired by Giovanni to dispose of Team Rocket) calls Giovanni and tells him about Team Rocket's betrayal, and Giovanni calls Jessie in an attempt to win her back. With promises of money and lies about James, he succeeds.
James becomes increasingly worried now that Jessie has started to actively avoid him. He has little time to wonder, however, as Ash bursts through the front door holding a dying Misty in his arms. He claims they were attacked by a Pokemon. Using his knowledge of medicine and some of Giovanni's supplies, James manages to save Misty's life.
It is then learned that May has gone missing. While the men venture out to search for her, it is learned that she is actually in the basement, being brutalized by a disguised Shelly and three of her Pokemon: Luxray, Mr. Mime, and Volbeat.
Meanwhile, James informs Ash that it was probably a Weavile that attacked them, based on Ash's description. Finding no sign of it, they head back to the mansion, where Max tells them that something happened to May, and Misty is talking to her. Overjoyed that Misty is finally awake, Ash rushes to see her, but he is turned away by the two girls.
Later that night, Ash calls a meeting and brings everyone up to speed on the situation, and also informs the crew that May has lost her sight. With a warning to be extra careful, everyone retires for the evening.
A few hours later, Jessie wakes from one of her nightmares and decides to start killing. After being told by Shelly not to kill May, and not finding it in her heart to kill someone as young as Max, she heads into Misty's room. After a moment of hesitation, Jessie brings down her blade on the sleeping girl and kills her.
After discovering Misty has been killed, Ash decides he has had enough and attempts to call home, but the phone signal has been jammed by an unknown source. Furious, Ash leaves alone in a huff.
James pulls Jessie aside in private and she confronts him about the things Giovanni has told her. James convinces her that he really is on her side, and she admits to him that she murdered Misty. James comes up with a plan to escape and leave Shelly stranded.
Meanwhile, Shelly has decided to take it upon herself to do Team Rocket's job for them. Using a second Weavile, she murders Meowth. When she calls Giovanni to tell him, the signal is lost due to interference from her Magnezone, in position above the mansion.
During this time, the gang has a makeshift burial service for Misty, and Ash continues to ponder the identity of the perpetrator. They spot the Magnezone and Max surmises that it is the cause of the signal jam. Ash startles it and Magnezone attacks, nearly frying Ash with a powerful electric blast. They scramble inside and Ash instructs everyone to find Shelly; Ash now believes her to be Misty's killer. When Team Rocket appears, Jessie tells Ash that Shelly is most likely at the huge waterfall on the island, unaware that Shelly has taken matters into her own hands.
Ash, Brock, and Tracey head out in search of Shelly and Meowth, and Jessie and James go about their own business, leaving May and Max alone. Suddenly, May remembers an important piece of information and rushes to inform Ash. Max stops her, reminding her of the powerful Pokemon above their heads, and they slip outside silently.
Max spots an injured Pokemon and rushes to tend to it. When he turns to his sister, he spots Shelly atop a green Mamoswine, preparing an Ice Beam attack. He pushes her out of the way and is instead hit with the blast, freezing his feet to the ground. As Max shouts a warning that Shelly is indeed behind everything, the rest of his body is frozen by the attack, leaving Max as nothing more but a popsicle.
Shelly reveals to May that she was the one who attacked her, and then Mamoswine crushes Max's frozen body underneath his weight, killing him. She knocks May out and orders Weavile to take her into the forest and kill her.
At the waterfall, Ash, Brock, and Tracey come under attack by Shelly's Luxray. The three manage to kill it, but not after the three sustain minor injuries. They also discover that Meowth was indeed murdered here and they rush back to the mansion, realizing that May and Max are in danger.
Weavile drags May deep into the forest, but has not killed her, as he's decided to rebel against Shelly and Giovanni. After a small breakthrough in communication a la Meowth, Weavile rushes off to find Ash and bring him to May.
He finds Ash, Brock, and Tracey en route to the mansion when Ash spots Weavile. Thinking that Weavile was the one that attacked Misty (in reality, it was his brother, a second Weavile), Ash chases him and is eventually led back to May, who tells Ash about her communication experience. After a brief display of power, Ash is convinced that Weavile is on his side. They all head back to the mansion.
During this whole ordeal, Jessie and James have been relaxing in Giovanni's pool. Jessie decides to head to the sauna to unwind, and James opts to stay behind. Jessie spots Shelly already in the sauna when she arrives, and Shelly tells her that she's already killed both kids from Hoenn. Jessie informs Shelly that she and James have patched things up, and the two plan on running away together. Shelly sends a signal to her Mr. Mime, hidden behind an invisible wall, and the Pokemon immobilizes Jessie. After a brief exchange of words between the two humans, Mr. Mime snaps Jessie's neck and kills her. Shelly sends Mr. Mime with Mamoswine to give Jessie a proper burial and, with her remaining Pokemon, wait outside for everyone else to get back.
Mr. Mime and Mamoswine come back just as everyone else does, and Shelly reveals her true intentions to everyone. She orders all of her Pokemon to attack. May is the first target; Magnezone unleashes all of its pent up energy in a horrific Thunder attack that kills her instantly. Ash carries her into the forest, praying that she is still alive. Mr. Mime hits Tracey with a Swagger attack, causing him to turn on Brock and beat him relentlessly.
Weavile lunges at Magnezone and scores a critical hit Focus Punch that knocks Magnezone out of commission. He goes after Mr. Mime next, killing it with a powerful Night Slash to the throat.
Realizing that she is actually losing this fight, Shelly makes an attempt to flee, finally ordering Mamoswine to attack Weavile. Weavile's blinding speed trumps Mamoswine's intense power, and it isn't until Volbeat intervenes with some super effective attacks that Weavile begins to have trouble. He starts focusing his attacks on Volbeat, but in his weakened state, he can't score a hit. In a last ditch effort, he recalls his training with Giovanni and fires an attack directly at Shelly before fainting from his injuries. Not wanting to see his master injured, Volbeat intercepts the attack with his body and becomes frozen.
Ash sees Tracey beating Brock up and tackles Tracey off of him. He comes back to his senses and is horrified to learn of his actions. When Ash rushes back to May's aid, he realizes that she has died and swears vengeance. He storms into the clearing where the battle took place as Shelly recalled Magnezone and Mamoswine back into their Poke Balls. He rushes at her in a rage, completely missing the mark as she easily evades his lunges.
Seeing James in the front door, Ash gets Shelly to openly admit that she perpetrated the murders of his friends and Jessie. Hearing this, James stabs Shelly in the back, forcing her to the ground. When she refuses to reveal where she buried Jessie, James cuts her throat, and Shelly dies.
Remembering that Shelly had told Ash about Jessie's last request, Ash searches Shelly's body and finds two letters. One is addressed to him, and the other is addressed to James. In Ash's letter, Jessie reveals that she had been the one who killed Misty, and she had also planned on killing herself to atone for it.
After discovering that Brock has survived his beating, Ash checks up on Weavile, who is severely injured, but still alive. Ash steals Weavile's Poke Ball and puts him back inside. The four men then head back into the mansion to gather their things and escape the island once and for all.
Chapter 12 has about 2300 words right now. ;D
