A Chance For A Trance - My Version By Ninetalesuk
Characters starring:
SunFlash (used with permission) Ninetales Sasha Bess Charlie Gerta Charleon Noctowl Eevee
It was a Saturday morning. The day was fresh with the song of birds. SunFlash was on her daily
run through the streets of San Francisco. She was just going to pass the Flea Bite Cafe, when a
blast of flames streaked through the open door. The fur around her face was singed black. She
looked inside
SunFlash: *cough* Whoever did that, I swear I would tear limb *cough* by limb!
Charlie’s shout was easily heard in the cafe
Charlie: Don’t practice here you moron! I think you got someone out there!
Charlie threw a towel to SunFlash. SunFlash caught it, and engulfed her face in it
SunFlash: Thanks Charlie. Is the furnace busted? Or are you keeping some dragon in the closet?
Charlie: *sigh* Ninetales is practicing his magic acts for tonight. He was suppose to hit some
flying discs blindfolded using his fire. He missed, and...ended up hitting you.
SunFlash finished cleaning her face. She spoke sarcastically
SunFlash: Terrific... Why is he doing a magic act...? Its not his style...
Charlie: Charleon talked him into it?
SunFlash: Excuse me...? Charleon the Charmeleon...? How on earth did he talk Ninetales into doing
a magic act?! Charleon is an idiot and Ninetales tends to get annoyed by him... A LOT!
Charlie: Well... Charleon did offer Ninetales a deal he can't refuse...
SunFlash: Which is...?
Charlie: Do the act and I will not get myself into trouble for the next week.
SunFlash: Perfect... What acts are in there, apart from burning me to death?
Charlie: Dunno yet but, one of these acts is a hypnosis act.
SunFlash: Hypnosis..? *Smirks* Yeah... right...
Charlie: That is what me, Bess and Sasha reacted to as well... Though, Noctowl did told us that
Ninetales is a special Pokemon.
SunFlash: Noctowl...? Where is he..?
Charlie: Hes off to get some proof... He will be back tonight when Ninetales does his stunt.
SunFlash: Hmph... Good luck to him...
She walked in, and put the towel on the counter. She looked on the stage, and tilted her head to
the side, seeing Ninetales, Charleon and Bess. Ninetales shoved the blindfold into Charleon's
eyes with an annoyed look.
Ninetales: Charleon... I can't do this trick!
Charleon: Oh, fine... We will get rid of this act! You can try out the main event! Hypnosis!
Bess: *Rolls eyes* Whoopie...
Charleon: Come on! Pokemon can actually use hypnosis! I mean, I remember one time Noctowl used
hypnosis on you! You were fast asleep!
Bess: Charleon... I fell asleep of BOREDOM! And Noctowl wasn't using hypnosis, he called it a
Flash attack! He was lighting the room when the bulb went off! Didn't you notice that?!
Ninetales: Charleon wouldn't notice a Snorlax walking by wearing a sign saying 'Look at me! Look
at me! I'm standing in front of a Charmeleon!'
Charleon pouted while Bess giggled.
Charleon: Come on... Back to practise... Hypnotize her!
Ninetales: *Sighs* Fine!
He turned and stared into Bess's eyes, trying to work his hypnosis. Bess shook her head.
Bess: I’m telling you Ninetales, this isn’t going to work. It has never worked.
Ninetales: Just work with me. All I need is the right situation, I swear.
She sighed, and Ninetales stared at her, trying to concentrate on getting her hypnotized.
Charleon near by nodded.
Charleon: That's right! Just like how Noctowl used hypnosis on her before!
Ninetales: Oh no... Here we go again...
Bess giggled and sighed. Gerta nearby shook her head.
Gerta: They just don’t give up. Ninetales has been at this since six in the morning, and still he
hasn’t given up on this stupid hypnosis thing.
The small mutt padded up to SunFlash.
Gerta: Can I get ya a drink?
SunFlash:Huh? Oh ya, sure. Just a water please.
Gerta nodded, and walked off. SunFlash approached the stage
SunFlash: Ninetales, I don’t mind that you practice your little ‘Mind-Game’ thing, but honestly.
Tell someone when you’re going to chuck flames into the outside.
Ninetales was keen on getting this right.
Ninetales: Sorry... but, don't you worry! I won't be using that trick again, right? *He looks at
Charleon with a dark look*
Charleon: *Gulp* Yes, that is correct!
SunFlash: Good!
Charleon: Now, be quiet! I think Ninetales might be hitting a break through!
SunFlash: The only thing Ninetales will 'break through' is the floor if he stays on it for a
long, long time!
Charleon: Worry about that later! Leave for a few hours! Your distracting him!
SunFlash sighed, and walked out. She was oblivious to the fact that Gerta got her drink on the
counter.
Gerta: *sigh* Border Collies. Do they sit for one second?

It was 6 PM. SunFlash returned to the Flea Bite to see Ninetales’ show. She sat up at the front
row with Charlie, Sasha, and Bess
Sasha~This should be an...enlightening show
The group laughed until they heard Ninetales' voice behind the curtain with Charleon's.
Ninetales: You want me to do WHAT?!?!
Charleon: Where this magician's outfit! I based it on that Dark Magician on that Yu-Gi-Oh show!
Don't worry... Why? Whats the matter...?
Ninetales: Charleon... this outfit you gave me... is based upon the Dark Magician GIRL!!!
Charleon: Oh... thats why there was a bra with it...
Silence came after that before Ninetales poked his head out through the curtains.
Ninetales: Ladies and gentledogs... Before we begin, I advise you to watch out for the occasional
LFC which means Low Flying Charmeleon.
He went back in and Charleon came flying out of the curtain, over the crowd and onto the bar
where Gerta is.
Gerta stared at Charleon with a calm voice.
Gerta: Shall I get you something?
Charleon: Yeah... A nice cool drink... Oy...
Gerta: I will throw it to you.
Charleon: No more flying, please!
Sasha giggled and turned to Charlie.
Sasha: His hypnosis is rubbish but, his throwing is fantastic!
Charlie: Too bad its not a baseball match!
The group laughed until Ninetales stepped upon the stage with a magician’s cape
Ninetales: Ladies and Gentledogs, and pups of nearly all ages, which includes Charleon.
Charleon: Hey!
Ninetales: Tonight, you are going to be mystified by the works of psychic abilities, practiced in
a mere 24 hours.
Charlie whispered in Sasha’s ears
Charlie: That tells a lot
Ninetales: Silence. I need silence for my first act. Sight Hypnosis.
He looked at the audience
Ninetales: I want I disagreeistant Bess to come up from the audience
The spaniel sighed, and stepped up, sitting erectly
Ninetales closed his eyes, focusing his thoughts. He then stared directly at Bess’ eyes
Ninetales: You are in my power. Don’t look away from my eyes, or else...
A small stream of smoke came from Ninetales’ nostrils. SunFlash looked at the others.
SunFlash: She won’t have a choice sooner or later
The group laughed quietly. Ninetales adverted his eyes from a blankly expression Bess, and looked
at the group. His eyes were glowing
Ninetales: Could you guys be supportive at least ONCE in your lives?
They started to be the same as Bess, and spoke in unison
SunFlash, Charlie, Sasha: Yes Ninetales: Thank you SunFlash, Charlie, Sasha: You’re Welcome
Ninetales looked back at Bess
Ninetales: Now. I command you. Chase your tail three times
Bess did as she was told, and chased her tail three times.
When Ninetales’ eyes stopped glowing, he stood with pride when applause was heard. The only ones
that didn’t applaud were Sasha, Charlie, and SunFlash. Gerta sat at the counter, cleaning a glass
while Charleon shook.
Gerta: Something doesn’t seem too right about this. He actually did it. Why didn’t his friends
clap?
Charleon: They teased him too much! Anyway, Bess is just acting.
Gerta: Really...?
Charleon: Yep... I told her to pretend to be hypnotized due to the fact that Bess getting
hypnotized didn't work this afternoon.
Gerta: OK... Explain me this then... Why is it that one moment, Charlie, Sasha and SunFlash were
making fun of Ninetales and the moment, they became polite.
Charleon: Erm... I dunno...
Noctowl flew in with Eevee holding a small document.
Noctowl: I do!
Charleon: Noctowl, where you been?!
Noctowl: The local Pokemon Center... Been searching for Ninetales' medical records that contains
the attacks he knows.
Charleon: And...?
Eevee: *Reading the document* He knows Flamethrower, Quick Attack, Faint Attack and Hypnosis. His
father was a Houndour called Edward while the mother is a Vulpix called Colleen. Both passed away
when Ninetales was a young Vulpix.
Gerta: Shame...
Charleon: Ninetales knows hypnosis?!
Noctowl: Yep... He recived the Faint Attack from his father and the Hypnosis from his mother.
Problem is, Ninetales can't use Hypnosis unless he is doing an attack and he gets really angry,
thats when his Hypnosis kicks in.
Charleon: Erm... Hold on a second... Ninetales was trying to use an attack... Charlie and the
others were making fun of him... Ninetales got angry so... Does that mean...?
Noctowl nodded.
Noctowl: Yes.
Charlie and Gerta looked at each other before rushing over and grabbing the bowing Ninetales
before going behind the curtains. Eevee blinked at all this.
Eevee: Wow! They can sure run fast!
Noctowl: Yep... Now... what are they gonna do...?
Behind the curtain...
Gerta: Ok hot-shot. Listen, how was it that you weren’t even able to hypnotize Bess this morning,
and now you did it!
Ninetales: Can’t you admit that I can cram?
Gerta: Oh yes, and how about your friends. They spoke in unison, they didn’t really seem happy,
and they seemed so polite. Fess up. You hypnotized them.
Ninetales: I did not. Anyways, Bess was only pretending. Before the show, Charleon told her to
pretend she was hypnotized.
Gerta: Oh really. Call her then.
Ninetales: *sigh* Ok, if only I can go back on stage. Bess, come here for a sec.
Bess: Yes master...
Bess obediently came to Ninetales, and sat beside him. Ninetales blinked at this.
Gerta: Normal huh? Honestly Ninetales, admit it?
Ninetales: I...I hypnotized Bess?!
Charleon: Y...Yeah... She is hypnotized because you got angry... According to the records Noctowl
brought back... Your Hypnosis attack that you got from your mother only works when you are trying
to use an attack and if you get angry while proforming it, Hypnosis is activated!
Gerta: You were staring at Bess and you hypnotized her when you got mad! And think about this!
You were still using Hypnosis on Charlie, Sasha and SunFlash!
Ninetales: Great... Don't you worry, I will bring them out!
Gerta poked Ninetales’ chest
Gerta: I can’t trust you. I’m betting 10 bones that you hypnotized the others as well. Would your
audience appreciate a mistake like that.
Charleon: There is a problem there... Ninetales doesn't own bones!
Ninetales: Not yet anyway! I will hand Gerta your bones when I kill ya for talking me into this
stupid act in the first place!
Charleon: Er...
Gerta laughed. Ninetales sighed
Gerta: Besides, I want you to prove that you are a real magician. I’ll let you go back on if you
put them out of these trances. Got it?
Ninetales nodded and pushed Bess on stage with Charleon. Gerta then pushed Ninetales back on, and
went back to the counters with Noctowl and Eevee.
Ninetales: Before I get on with my next act, I want Sasha LaFleur, Charlie Barkin, and SunFlash
Comet to come on stage.
SunFlash, Charlie, Sasha: Yes master...
They came on obediently, and sat beside Bess
Charleon: While Ninetales was behind the curtains, he was uhhh, psychically sending messages to
these three dogs, and got them under his power.
Gerta: Oh give me a break
Eevee: I will give you a Kit-Kat!
Noctowl: Old joke... Oy...
Ninetales: From the snap of my fingers, they will go back to their normal selves.
He gave a snap, nothing happened. He thought for a moment, and stared at them
Charleon: Er...
Ninetales: I command you, go back to your normal selves!
Nothing happened. Stressing out from the situation, he slapped Charlie on the muzzle.
Charleon: Oh boy...
Ninetales: WAKE UP!
Nothing happened. Gerta was getting restless from his ‘performance’. She went back-stage, and
pulled Ninetales & Charleon back in. Gerta: Well...
Ninetales: I can’t get them awake again. Everything I do, I can’t get them awake.
Charleon: Do not panic! Everything is gonna be all right!
Ninetales: Am I jumping the gun, Charleon, or are the words "I have a cunning plan" marching with
ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation? Charleon: They certainly are. Ninetales: Well, forgive me if I don't do a cartwheel of joy; your record in this department is
hardly 100%. So what is it?
Charleon: We do nothing...
Ninetales: Yup, it's another world-beater.
Charleon: No, wait. We do nothing... until they wake up.
Ninetales: And then we... spring into action?
Charleon: Yep... or we could always...
Gerta: No, you aren’t going to set their tails on fire.
Charleon: What makes you think that they aren’t going to-
Gerta: No fire!
Ninetales: Then what do you think I’m suppose to do before they turn this cafe into a scrap yard?
Gerta thought for a moment.
Gerta: Ok, I’m relying on you to find a book, magician, anyone to get them out of this trance.
Don’t screw up.
Ninetales nodded, and shoved Charleon back on stage.
Ninetales: Get the guys and think of a good excuse of why we have to leave!
Charleon: Right!
Gerta: This will be good...
Charleon: Ok, it seems that there is some plumbing problems in the building next to us. We will
be gone for a bit, so...bye
Ninetales: Plumbing problems?! Oy...
He started to push the four off the stage. He turned back to the audience
Charleon: And starting now, there will be no refunds for all admissions.
Quickly, he slunk out, away from the booing crowd. Ninetales followed him with Noctowl.
Noctowl: Subtle, Charleon... Very subtle...
Charleon: Thank you.
Ninetales: He was being sarcastic, Charleon!
Charleon: Maybe I was too...?
Ninetales & Noctowl: Yeah... right...

Ninetales, Noctowl and Charlon are now walking through the streets with Ninetales pushing the
hypnotized dogs. Panting, he looked at them
Ninetales: Ok, this isn’t going to work. Can I trust you guys to keep together?
SunFlash, Sasha, Charlie, Bess Yes...
Ninetales: Good. Keep with me.
The group arrived at a busy street.
Noctowl: First question... Where do people keep their phone books?
Charleon: Second question... Where did Sasha go?
The three Pokemon turned around and saw that Sasha was gone.
Ninetales What the... Aw great...
Ninetales saw Sasha going into a store in hopes of getting a phone book. Ninetales and Charleon
ran from the group, and into the store. They were too late. Sasha already took a phone book from
someone’s shopping cart. The setter dropped it by him.
Sasha: Here you go, Master
He saw the owner of the book coming at him
Person: That Giant Fox took my book.
She took out her cell phone, and called the pound
Ninetales: No...YOU keep it.
Charleon: AND HE IS NO FOX!
Ninetales: Charleon... I am...
Charleon: Oh yeah... A Fox Pokemon... I remember now...
Ninetales groaned and pulled Sasha away from the store with Charleon, and back to the others. He
panted heavily.
Ninetales: I’m never going to listen to you again, Char- Where’s SunFlash?
Noctowl: She was here a moment ago...
Charleon: There she is!
Ninetales saw SunFlash chasing a car with a kid’s Ninetales sticker on a window. He slapped his
forehead, and chased after her.
Ninetales: STAY, HEEL, HALT!
Charleon: I'm dead, aren't I...?
Noctowl: Oh yeah...
The noise from the cars was too loud for SunFlash to hear.
Ninetales: STOP!
Charleon: Listen to him!!! PLEASE!!!!
The car was about to turn to a different road. SunFlash heard this, but stopped in the middle of
the road. With an approaching truck approaching straight for her. Ninetales quickly ran through
the traffic, dodging cars. He then took a leap and grabbed SunFlash by her bandanna. He then took
her on his back, and slowly got to the sidewalk. Wearily, he put her out of danger’s way. When he
did, a car ran over one of his tails. Ninetales yelped in pain, and went fully on the sidewalk
Ninetales: It’s official. I HATE THIS!
Charleon: Ninetales! You okay?!
Ninetales: Not as much as you will be when this is over!!! SunFlash. When I meant that you have
to follow me, I meant follow the REAL ME. Not some sticky paper on a window.
Charleon pulled a hair from Ninetales' head. Ninetales yelped.
Charleon: Yeah! DNA, follow the Ninetales with hair this DNA. Not any wannabe sticker.
Understand?
SunFlash: Yes, Master
Ninetales: Good. Keep with me
Noctowl: Oy... Ninetales is losing it...
SunFlash followed Ninetales and Charleon back to the others. Ninetales and the group walked down
further into the city. He, Charleon and Noctowl were the only ones seeming to be tired.
Charleon: We've been wandering around for hours!!!
Noctowl: Don't give up! We can find a way!
Ninetales: Too late! I give up!
He flopped down on the sidewalk. His head was on a newspaper. He turned his attention to it.
Magic Lessons Larry Roudini Golden Gate Apartments Floor 3 Apt # 708
His face lit up. A magician! He can help
Charleon: Ninetales...?
Ninetales: I found us some help! Golden Gate? YES, That’s only a few blocks away. Come on guys!
Ninetales and the others ran as fast as they could to the apartment where the magician was
suppose to live. Ninetales pushed open the doors, and looked around. Seeing a clerk in the lobby,
he pushed them all behind some large curtains.
Ninetales: Ok guys, here’s the plan. Stay close. We can’t afford ANY mistakes. Got it?
Charlie, Sasha, SunFlash and Bess nodded, and huddled close together.
Noctowl: Huh..?
Ninetales: That wasn’t what I...oh nevermind
Noctowl: Ninetales, look!
Ninetales saw an elevator. He quickly went inside with Charleon and Noctowl. They all saw an
approaching Bellhop.
Ninetales: Come on. RUN!
SunFlash, Charlie, Sasha, Bess: How fast?
Ninetales: REALLY FAST. JUST GET IN! JUST RUN LIKE A CHARMELEON BEING CHASED BY AN ANGRY
NINETALES!!! OKAY?!
Charleon: Oy... why direct it towards me...?
In a hurry, he pushed a button that made the door close, and another to get to the 3rd floor.
Panting, he looked around, and did a head count.
Ninetales: Ok, SunFlash, Charlie, Sasha..... DANG IT, WHERE’S BESS?
Charleon: She has short legs so... she didn't run fast enough to get here...
Noctowl: You ran pretty fast, Charleon... And you have short legs...
Charleon: I ran a lot with Ninetales chasing me...
Ninetales: *Sigh* We're gonna get Bess back...
Bess was left at the lobby. Since she was shorter in leg, she couldn’t get on in time. When they
got to the 3rd floor, he quickly pressed the ground floor button. In a few seconds, he came back
down, seeing Bess put on the desk.
Bellhop: Sir, I found this spaniel by the elevator
Clerk: Keep her in the basement for now
Ninetales heard those words. He turned to the group
Ninetales: Ok, stay. Don’t move, don’t go anywhere.
Noctowl: Hurry up before we lose Bess!
After the pep-talk, he rushed to the Bellhop and the clerk
Ninetales: Take this!
In an instant, he made a flamethrower to the Bellhop. With the boy rolling around on the floor to
get rid of the flames, Ninetales grabbed Bess, and carried her to the elevator.
Charleon: Wow! What a hot idea!
Noctowl: I'm gonna kill you if you keep your bad jokes up...
When they arrived at the floor, Ninetales shoved the hypnotized dogs. He remembered from the
newspaper, it was #708
Ninetales~Ok...700...702...704...706...Ah ha, #708
On the door, it had a sign that said: Out on Vacation. Will return in 4 weeks
Charleon: Uh oh...
Motionless, he stared at that sign. His eyes twitched every 10 seconds
Ninetales~No...no...NOOOOOOOOO!
He started slamming his head on the door. The hypnotized dogs just stared at him.
Noctowl: It can't get any better then this, can it....?

Ninetales returned to the cafe with the group. His tails were down as low as his head. He sat up
in a stool, and laid his head on the counter.
Eevee: They are back! And... failed...?
Gerta: You fixed things?
Ninetales: I’m worse off than before. Not only are they the same as before, I’ve been running
around town for something to help. I almost got in the pound, run over by a car, collapsed from
exhaustion, and some magician was out on vacation. All that for nothing.
Noctowl: Hey, Gerta... When we left, the audience were booing due to Charleon's not-so-subtle
exit... How did you made sure they did not destroy this place?
Gerta: I gave them a refund on their admission, thats all.
Charleon rushed up to the counter.
Charleon: You did WHAT?!!? That was the only thing I was looking foward to when we return! And
after all my hard work!
Ninetales: YOUR hard work?! I was the one who locked the minds of our friends in a trance!
Eevee: But, if we didn't gave them the refund, you and Charleon will have to pay for the damages.
Charleon was angry and started to jump around the place in anger.
Charleon: RAGH!!!
Noctowl: Great... Charleon is using Rage!
And Charleon opened his mouth to spit out small fireballs.
Eevee: And a Ember attack!
Charleon's Ember were heading to Charlie's direction. In a wailing bark, he seemed to snap out of
it. He put out the fire in his tail, and glared at Charleon, whom froze in fear and kept his
mouth open wide.
Charlie: CHARLEON!!! What did I tell you before! Watch your flames, idiot!
Charlie walked up to Charleon and kicked a hind leg at Charleon's butt. He walked off to a
different part of the cafe while Ninetales grinned and turned to Gerta.
Ninetales: Thats it! Light their tails and they will wake up! We need to do it on the other three
girls right now!
Gerta: But... if you fire them... your gonna get killed.
Ninetales: Me...? No, no, no... Not me, HIM!
Charleon: HUH?! No way!!! I'm not gonna feel SunFlash's teeth against my tail! You do it!
Ninetales: Charleon! Your the one who got us into the mess in the first place by offering me a
deal I can't refuse! Your the one who started this mess and you will finish it! Use Ember on the
tails and take the wrath as a man!
Charleon: I'm not a man, I'm a Pokemon!
Noctowl: Just do it!
Gerta: I was gonna say that I wouldn't recommed doing this for the others. Charlie is just one
dog, imagine three more...
Noctowl: Your other ideas are...?
Gerta: Good point... *sigh* Go ahead. They aren’t the only ones that will feel pain. I can just
see it.
Ninetales: Proceed, Charleon. Ember!
Charleon looked at Gerta, and the rest of them. He took a breath, and shot an ember at each of
the dog’s tails. They all snapped out of it. SunFlash was the first to find out that her tail was
on fire. She yelped. After she put it out, SunFlash glared at Charleon because his mouth was
smoking from the flames.
SunFlash: What the...CHARLEON!!!...I swear, you’re a flea’s length away. A FLEA’S LENGTH I TELL
YOU...
Charleon gulped and slowly inched away from SunFlash's gaze. Eevee sighed.
Eevee: I wonder if a Dragonite or a Groudon would be scared from SunFlash's glare...
Bess and Sasha looked at Gerta.
Sasha: Gerta, what happened around here?
Bess: I felt like I had some sort of nightmare
Gerta: Don’t worry about it girls.
Gerta spoke when she was helping put out the small fire and burns on their tails.
Gerta: It was only Ninetales, Charleon and Noctowl that had the nightmares. And Ninetales still
owes me 10 bones for our little bet
She chortled at the thought of the epidemic. Sasha and Bess noticed Ninetales sighing.
Sasha: Ninetales...? Listen, sorry we were laughing at you.
Bess: Yeah... It was so unlike you to do something like having Charleon talking you into doing a
magical act.
Ninetales: No worries, gals. You will see me in a normal mood while I will hand Gerta her 10
bones by removing Charleon's!
With a sigh, Charleon snuck away.
Charleon: I should teach myself a trick... DISAPPEAR!
Noctowl shook his head.
Noctowl: Somethings will never change...

Just as a notice, Ninetales messaged me before he did this to get permission. The basic idea is mine, and the alterations are Ninetales'
