You turned around at the sound of slithering.
You reach in your bag and grab a Poké Ball. An Ultra Ball to be specific. It won't catch the creature, but it will buy time. You remember what you mentor said, something about eggs. You actually don't know what your mentor said. You were too concentrating on complaining about how he said there was only one-hundred-and-fifty of these things. Spent all his life studying Pokémon only to be wrong about most everything he learnt. He even gave you an empty Pokédex, thanks!
As your thoughts wonder, a Wild Arbok appeared and used tackle. It was super effective at knocking you down. You got to your feet and three the ball at it. It bounced off it's head and plopped on the ground. That wasn't an Ultra Ball, it was a Net Ball! Why did you even have that in there?
The Arbok wasn't happy about it either. And on closer inspection, it was the biggest Arbok you've ever seen. It wasn't giant, but it was big enough to swallow... You... Whole...
You start running as fast as you could. The Arbok didn't waste time. It slithered in front of you, then behind you. Soon you tripped over the purple snake and landed hard on the ground. The Arbok wrapped it's body around you quickly. You felt the coils squeeze your body, "Wait! Wait! I know you can understand me. Wait!"
The Arbok stopped tightening it's hold on you, "What do you want, prey?" It hissed.
Your chest was in pain, blood rushed to your brain and your heart was beating in your chest, working over time to push blood through the tight veins and arteries of your body, "I-I..." You began, not knowing what you're about to say and in a panic, "I won't struggle if you don't strangle me!"
The snake titled it's head in curiousity. It's working! You think to yourself. "Just loosen up and I'll even remove my gear. I taste better without it, I promise." You felt the Arbok release it's grasps on you slightly. You weren't planning on letting this beast eat you, this is just some tomfoolery. You take off your backpack slowly, "It'd be faster if you let go."
He let you go entirely now, waiting for you to remove your belt, shoes and anything else that doesn't digest well. Now is your chance!
