Chapter 14: Battle! Vs. Gym Leader Misty!
~~~~~~Cerulean City Gym
Kenny enters Misty's Gym. He wasn't surprised by how big the place was. There was a narrow path that lead directly to Misty who was sitting on a matt. The gym was mostly all covered in water. A few trainers where swimming around. Two trainers in particular were wearing bathing suits.
Misty was wearing her blue bikini. "Hi Kenny!" Misty exclaims from her spot which was a tiny bit far from where Kenny was standing.
"Hello Misty. So I'm guessing that I have to battle your trainees right?" Kenny questions.
"You've got that right! You know, yesterday, I was beat by Blue. I won't let that happen anymore Kenny! My Pokémon's offense will pulverize your Pokémon Kenny! I'll be waiting here!" Misty exclaims.
Kenny nods. "Sandshrew isn't going to be good here. It's time for my Deerling to shine once again!"
Kenny walks up to a trainee. "You won't get pass me!" he said.
"Oh yeah? Go Deerling!" Kenny shouts. His Pokémon comes right out.
"Go Horsea!" the man exclaims.
"Deerling, use Double Kick!" Kenny shouts. His Deerling kicks once then twice. The Horsea stood!
"Horsea, Tackle!" The Water Pokémon tackles Deerling. Deerling almost falls into the water.
"Deerling watch your balance, this place is too narrow!" Kenny shouts.
Deerling nods but was skeptical about the battle. "Horsea, Tackle it in the water!" the swimmer said.
Horsea does so, and Deerling was thrown in the water. "No Deerling!" Kenny exclaims.
"Horsea, Tackle!" The Horsea zooms through the water, knocking Deerling a few feet away.
"Deerling, get out!" Kenny exclaims. Deerling starts to swim towards him, but was too weak.
"One more Tackle! Finish it!" the swimmer exclaims. Deerling was hit, and this time it stopped swimming. It was now floating on the water.
"Deerling, return! I guess I have no choice, go Sandshrew!" Sandshrew gets out. It looks around. It sees water around the gym. It looks at Kenny with an annoyed face.
"I know, I'm sorry, your first gym and I'm forcing you on water...."
Sandshrew shakes its head. Suddenly it was blasted by water. Sandshrew rolls and faints.
Kenny stares in disbelief.
"Wow Kenny! You really need to get more Pokémon!" Misty said coming forward.
The swimmers laugh at Kenny. He returns Sandshrew to his Pokeball.
".....I tried, I thought-"
"Kenny, you seriously disappointed me. You're smarter than all of us, and yet you don't have enough Pokémon! I'm not trying to be a jerk to you, I'm telling this as a Gym Leader. Trainers are supposed to get more Pokémon and train them! You really thought you were going to win by two Pokémon? Kenny, get your brain together, and come back when you have a descent team!" Misty said looking angry.
Kenny didn't know what to say. "I-"
"Come back you actually can beat me. You really pissed me off Kenny!" Misty said as she turned away and walked away.
Kenny stares. He slowly walks off the gym. Misty looks back at him.
"Wow sis, that was like so rude," Daisy said.
"I have to be tough on him, if not, he won't win any Gym Badges that way. How is he supposed to beat me if he can't even get pass the trainee? He needs to toughen up."
Misty dives in her pool.
~~~~~~Route 25
Kenny solemnly walks up to Leaf.
"You lost?" Leaf asked after seeing his face.
"Yeah, I didn't even defeat the trainee," Kenny said.
"That is bad Kenny. Go to Route 25. Train. Catch Pokémon. You have the same problem as Red. You only have Pokémon that were handed to you. You need to catch more Pokémon. I think Sid is over at Route 25. You should go join him," Leaf states.
"I will. Would you like to join me?" Kenny asked.
"Thanks, but I have to go buy Potions. I'm thinking of battling Misty myself. By the way, have you seen Blue?"
"Misty was defeated by him yesterday. He's actually moving on."
Leaf stays quiet.
"You alright Leaf?" Kenny asks.
"I'll manage. Sometimes, I wonder if Blue will ever have time for me," Leaf said as she walks away.
Kenny reaches out but stops himself. Maybe she needs time.
"Wooper, use Mud Bomb!" Sid cries.
The Wooper jumps into the air and spits out a giant ball of mud to the poor Weepinbell. It faints.
Wooper falls to the ground of tiredness. Sid looks around. He was sweating too, and he didn't even know why. Was it really that hot? Sid sits on the floor. Maybe he should go back to the Pokémon Center. Unless Kenny was already there. Sid sighs.
Kenny walks up to him. "Hey Sid," he said.
"Oh...hey Kenny..." Sid said looking uneasy.
"I need to talk to you Sid, I-"
"I already know what it's about Ken, and I see you're point. It's about Dom isn't right?" Sid states.
Kenny looks surprised. "You know about me and Dom not-"
Sid smiles, "Yeah, and I get it, you've known him for almost all your life so I guess that in the end you decided to go with him huh?"
Kenny's eyes widen. "Huh? Sid, I'm-"
"It's ok Ken, I heard you and Leaf talking back in Cerulean City. You want to go with Dom. I'll be ok really," Sid said.
"What?! Sid what are you talking about?"
Sid returns his Wooper. Sid starts walking down to Route 24.
"Sid, where are you going? I'm not traveling with Dom! I'm traveling with you!" Kenny stated.
"Look Ken, don't lie to me, I heard everything, I'll go away now." Sid then runs away.
Kenny stares.
Dom was watching the whole thing go down. "I told you. Sooner or later they will come to us," Lacy said.
Kenny stares at Sid walk away.
"Well, I guess that you now realize that Sid is going with me, so why don't you just go away?" Lacy said to Kenny walking up to him.
"Go away Lacy, leave me alone," Kenny stated walking away.
Lacy grabs his arm. "I saw you lose epically to Misty. Or should I say her trainee," Lacy states with a smirk.
"Whatever Lacy, you can go away now," Kenny said.
Lacy flashed a badge. Kenny gasps.
"That's right, I beat Misty. While she yelled at you for failing, I won and got her approval. And-" she throws her Pokeball at the floor and a Pokémon comes out, "I got my Snivy evolved. Kenny, meet Servine!"
The Pokémon raises a paw in a cockish manner. Kenny looks at Lacy.
"You're such a waste. You thought you could get Sid? Well you're so wrong!" Lacy exclaims while her left eye twitched. Kenny stares in horror.
"What was that about me?"
The rivals turn to see Sid.
"Oh hey Sid! How are you doing?" Lacy asks.
"Hey Lacy. Hey Ken, can we talk about this whole thing? I realized walking away from it won't be needed right?" Sid said.
"Actually, Kenny and I were just talking about it. He agreed to let you travel with me. He was telling me that he was planning on going with Dom now. He said it'll be for the best," Lacy said.
Sid's eyes immediately turned sorrowful. "Oh.... is that true Ken? You really want me to go with Lacy?"
Kenny looks at Sid then at Lacy who gave him a death look.
"Sid, I would like to say goodbye, since you are here. Lacy is correct. This is our depart. Lacy will be more of a guide than I would ever be, therefore... you can travel with her if you wish. I have decided to travel with Dom," Kenny said trying to hold in all the tears.
Sid stares in disbelief. "Kenny, you can't be serious right now. You're just going to leave me? For Dom? Did you forget that he likes you as in he wants to date you? You promised me back in Viridian Forest-"
"Sid, listen to me, I already said that I'm traveling with Dom. It's not personal. I'm sure you'll understand why I'm doing this. Stop making this harder than it is." Kenny begins to walk away.
"Kenny, I want to travel with you! You've been so nice to me since the beginning! I want you to go out with me!!!" Sid screams.
Kenny stops in his tracks.
"WHAT?!?!" Lacy yells.
Dom who was watching the whole scene swallows his chocolate bar and starts to choke on it.
Red who was not to far away from where the scene was taking place was staring with wide eyes.
Sid was breathing heavily. He suddenly realized what he just said.
"Sid, did you just say that you want to go out with me?" Kenny said looking at him.
Sid was frozen. "I-I-I don't know. I have no idea why I said that. Kenny, I just don't want you to leave me. I'm hopeless without you. I am. I don't want you to go because I got used to you already. All you're smart words and everything. Kenny, I need you," Sid stated.
Kenny's face became consumed by tears. He was about to run to his arms but he sees Lacy jump in front of Sid.
"Sid, Kenny already made up his mind to go and join Dom. Besides, you'll have more fun with me than with Kenny!" Lacy said. She hugs him.
"I think you'll prefer my company," Lacy smirks. Sid looks down at Lacy. He looks at Kenny.
"I want to travel with Kenny, Lacy, I already got used to him." Lacy shakes her head. "I guess Kenny hasn't, that's why he's leaving." Sid turns to Kenny who had his back turned on them. "Ken..."
"Sid! Are you really going to chose a guy, over me?" Lacy exclaims in anger.
Sid looked hesitant. "I... I'm not gay, b-"
"Then you make you're decision. You'll go with me!"
Sid looks at Kenny.
"See you around Sid," was all Kenny said for the rest of day. He runs off down the bridge to Cerulean City.
Sid looks down at the floor.
"Sid, it's ok. In the end, we all saw it coming. I was going to get you one way or another," Lacy states trying to hold in a laugh.
"I-I need a moment alone. Then we can- you know. Travel. Travel," Sid rushes off.
Lacy flips her hair. "I always get what I want."
Red was looking all this go down. He stares at Lacy with angered eyes.
~~~~~~Cerulean City Gym
Leaf enters the gym.
"Finally! Someone I wanted to see! Besides Red and Satoshi of course. Leaf, I'll show how you how being a true Gym Leader is like!" Misty exclaims from the far end of the gym.
Leaf stares at the gym. "This place is like a pool. Typical for someone who trains with Water Types."
Leaf takes a few steps forward. Suddenly someone throws water at Leaf. She screams. "What the hell?!" Leaf shouts.
The swimmer exits the water and stands on the narrow path. "I'm first up! Let's do this!" The swimmer sends out Horsea.
"Go, Bulba!" Leaf exclaims. Her Pokémon comes right out.
"Horsea, Smokescreen!" the swimmer shouts.
"Bulba, dodge it, and Vine Whip!" Leaf tells her Pokémon. Bulbasaur jumps in the air invading the attack. Still in the air, Bulba sends vines out and smacks the poor Horsea into the water. The Pokémon floated in the water.
"Dammit! Go Shellder!" A Pokémon came out.
"Bulba, Vine Whip!" Bulba does its move, and knocks it out.
"That can't be!" the swimmer shouts. Leaf flips her hair and walks towards Misty with her nose up in the air. She reaches the end. Misty stood before Leaf.
"Wow. You actually reached me. Now that's a shocker for a girly girl," Misty said wiping water of her face. "Of course. I'll beat anyone that's in my way," Leaf states in a cocky manner. Misty smiles and said, "Leaf, you're a new face! You clearly don't know about me! Only those trainers who have a policy about Pokémon can turn pro. What is your approach when you catch and train Pokémon? My policy is an all-out offensive with Water-type Pokémon!"
Misty twirls around, sending water all over the place, she stops and extends her arm up in the air and extends the other one. She smiles, sets her hand next to her face and shows a piece sign. "I choose you, Staryu!" Misty exclaims.
"Go Bulba!" Leaf shouts.
"Staryu, Tackle!" Misty yells twirling around.
Staryu flies towards Bulba, knocking it a few feet away.
"Bulba, Vine Whip!" Leaf exclaims.
Staryu dodges the attack. It jumps in the water. Leaf stares in horror.
"Staryu, Tackle!" Misty exclaims raising her arm.
Bulba looked around the pool to try to point out from where it was going to attack. The hit came from the right. Bulba was knocked in the air.
"Water Pulse!" The Staryu collects water and sends three circular rings of water towards Bulba. The attack connected, sending Bulba all the way up in the roof. Bulba screams and began to fall again.
"Tackle!" Misty yells.
Staryu waited for the right moment, and struck. Bulba was knocked into the water.
"Bulba!" Leaf shouts.
"Finish it Staryu!" Misty commands. Staryu dives in the water.
"Bulba, swim!" Leaf yells.
Bulba tries its best to swim to shore. The gym had turned silent, all you can hear where the frantic cries of Bulba trying to reach the narrow pathway. It reached it and took a sigh of relief. Staryu comes from the right and knocks out Bulba. It faints. Misty stares at Leaf.
"Go, Nidoran!" Leaf yells. Nidoran comes out.
"Staryu, Water Pulse!" Nidoran was blasted in the air.
"Tackle!" Staryu flies off and hits Nidoran in which it falls in the water.
"No!" Leaf shouts. Misty smiles. She twirls around and yells out "Tackle again!"
Staryu jumps in the water. Nidoran swam swiftly and made it to the narrow bridge.
"Nidoran jump and Double Kick!" Nidoran jumps just as Staryu was about to tackle it into the water. Staryu was still spinning and flying off elsewhere when Nidoran does a double kick to Staryu. It was a critical hit! Staryu started blinking red. Staryu looked weak now.
"Let's end this! Staryu, Water Pulse!" Misty sais raising her arm up in the air. Staryu sent water to Nidoran. The Pokémon moved out of the way.
"Nidoran, Poison Sting!"
Nidoran runs up to Staryu and stabs its front horn. Staryu shakes a little and faints.
"Yes!" Leaf exclaims.
"You think you're clever Leaf? I'm just get warmed up! Go Starmie!"
her Pokémon comes out and shakes out water.
"Dammit," Leaf curses.
"Water Pulse!" Starmie sent the water move to Nidoran. The move was so fast the Nidoran didn't have time to react. Nidoran was knocked out.
"No! Return Nidoran. Go Clefairy!" Her Pokémon comes right out.
"Water Pulse!" Clefairy was thrown to the wall. It cracks it, knocking it out. Leaf stares in fear.
"Leaf, that was so sad, I love that Pokémon," Misty said regretfully.
"Clefairy return, go Butterfree!" Butterfree zooms up into the air.
"Starmie, let's finish this match, use Water Pulse!"
"Butterfree, Poison Powder!"
Butterfree barely dodges the move and sends purple dust to Starmie. The water Pokémon shakes and turns fully purple for a few seconds. It was poisoned.
"Starmie, Bubblebeam!" Starmie sends a row of hard bubbles towards Butterfree. The Bug Type was hit, but was still flying.
"Tackle!" Leaf exclaims. Butterfree swoops down and tackles Starmie to the floor.
"Water Pulse!" Butterfree moves out of the way.
"Tackle again!" Leaf shouts. A direct hit. Starmie was now blinking red.
"Starmie, take my Potion!" Misty yells.
She throws a Potion bottle up in the air. Starmie jumps in the air and breaks it, consuming all the healing products. Starmie regained health.
"What? You can use a Potion during battle?!" Leaf exclaims.
"Of course you can! Water Pulse now!" Misty shouts.
With a final blast, Butterfree was knocked out of the air and floats in the water.
"....Butterfree return...." Leaf sadly said.
"You put up a great fight Leaf. I'm sure that if you keep training you'll win me in a battle. As for right now, go rest or something. I have to go check up on something right now. If anyone wants to battle, I'll be here," Misty said walking away.
Leaf sighs and walks out the gym.
~~~~~~Red and Leaf
Red was waiting in the Pokémon Center. Leaf enters. He runs up to her.
"Did you win? I was walking by the gym and realized you were battling her," Red stated trying not to sound like he was too interested in her.
"Nope, I lost. I thought I could win with my Bulba, but she was the first one out. It takes balls to try to defeat her.... Are you going to go battle her right now?" Leaf questions.
"I was thinking of doing that. Actually though, I think we need to talk. It's about Kenny, I know how much you two get along," Red stated.
"Yeah, what happened?" Leaf asks.
"Let's walk, I don't want anyone to hear us," Red said looking around. They exit the Pokémon Center and started walking around Cerulean City.
Red was explaining everything that was happening.
"UGH!!! I knew that Lacy girl was going to be a problem! Where's Kenny? Is he ok?"
"I don't know, he ran off somewhere. Sid is at Route 25 with Lacy. I'm guessing Dom is with Kenny."
"This is all wrong! Ugh! Kenny and Sid were supposed to be the cutest couple ever! Listen Red, can you help me out, and I'll go talk some sense into Sid. Find Kenny for me, and tell him that I'll meet him in the Pokémon Center."
Red nods. Leaf was about to go when Red said, "Be careful alright?"
Leaf looks at Red who was now facing the other way.
"I will be. I will be."
Meanwhile, deep inside Cerulean Cave, a Pokémon was resting. It had its arms crossed and crouching. It was listening to everything outside.... the noises... the talks.... the Pokémon...
Suddenly he hears a laughter. A giggle. A joyful giggle.
It is him.
It has to be him.
It is him.
The laughter repeats in his head.
It was outside. Because of him, he is here, as an outcast. Because of him, he will never be seen as a normal Pokémon... he isn't a normal Pokémon. He is not a Pokémon. This all his fault....
Mew.
The Pokémon opens its eyes which were a blue color.
It will strike when necessary.
Red walked across the bike shop. He sees two people talking. It was Dom and Kenny. He walks up to them.
"Hey Kenny, are you alright?" Red asked.
When Kenny faced Red, he notices that Kenny's eyes were watery still.
"What are you doing here Red?" Dom asked.
Red looks at Dom. "I'm here to check on Kenny. I saw what went down on Route 25. Kenny, don't you think that you're overthinking this? I mean Sid really didn't want to leave you," Red said.
Kenny looks at Red.
"Well, the decision has already been made. Kenny is traveling with me now, so you don't have to butt in Red," Dom said coldly.
Red ignored Dom. "Kenny, do you really want to leave Sid? You've been traveling him since we left Pallet Town. He was counting on you," Red states.
"Red, I told you, he is traveling with me," Dom said now getting in front of Red. The boys give each other cold stares.
"Kenny isn't really in the mood to be remembered of that fatass so why don't you just go back to your little princess Grass and leave me and Kenny alone." Red stared, his eyes almost glittering red.
"Didn't you hear me Red?" Dom asked.
"I'm staying with Kenny. You're not traveling with him. He doesn't want to travel with you. He'll travel with Sid. I'm taking him to the Pokémon Center, where Leaf will be there with Sid," Red said with ease.
Dom stares in horror. He reaches for his PokeGear.
"I knew it. You and Lacy are working together to separate Kenny and Sid," Red states.
Dom lets go off his PokeGear. "Prove it!" Dom exclaims.
Red takes out his Pokeball.
Dom runs his fingers through his hair and grabs a Pokeball. He enlarges and stares at Red with an evil smile. "Go Chikorita!" Dom shouts.
Red tosses his Pokeball at the floor and Charmander comes out.
"Charmander, Ember!"
Charmander flips its tail and sends fire to Chikorita. It was a direct hit, and Chikorita was already looking weak.
"Chikorita, use Poison Powder!" Chikorita shakes and sends purple dust to Charmander. It was poisoned but it still held on.
"Charmander, use Ember!"
"Dodge it!"
Chikorita jumps in the air. "Razor Leaf!"
Charmander was cut by the sharp leafs, but resisted. Chikorita falls on the floor.
"Charmander Ember!" Charmander sends fire and brutally burns Chikorita. the Grass Type faints.
"Go Squirtle!" Dom exclaims.
Squirtle comes right out. "Charmander return, go Bulbasaur!"
Red's Pokémon comes out.
"Bulbasaur use Vine Whip!" Bulbasaur sends two vines that hit Squirtle. It sends it up in the air. It falls on its head.
"Squirtle, use Ice Beam!"
"What?" Squirtle absorbed air and puffed out a beam of blue. It hits Bulbasaur and it faints.
"TM b****," Dom said with a smirk.
"Go Charmander!" Red exclaims.
His Pokémon comes out.
"Squirtle, use Water Gun!" With a single blast, Red's Pokémon knocked to the floor. Charmander wasn't looking too good. The poison made it worse.
"Finish him!" Dom exclaims. Squirtle sends a water to Charmander.
"Charmander dodge and Ember!"
Charmander does a backflip, dodging the water and while still in the air sends fire from its mouth to Squirtle. The Water Type flinches. When Charmander lands on the floor, Red tells him to use Scratch. Charmander charges and scratches Squirtle in which the Pokémon was thrown up in the air. Charmander then scratches it again, making it spin around in circles before it lands on the floor, fainted. Dom stares in horror.
Red returns Charmander. He walks up to Dom.
"Keep your damn money. Kenny let's go," Red states.
Kenny walks up to Red. Dom looks at Kenny.
Red and Kenny walk off. Dom stares at them walk away.
He immediately calls Lacy. "Hey, Leaf is heading to get Sid!"
"You're right. She's already here," Lacy said.
Leaf walks up to Lacy. Sid was sitting on a log looking at Leaf come over. Lacy hangs up.
"Hey Leaf, I didn't know that you would be coming," Lacy stated.
"Cut the crap Lacy. Stop being a little nosy b****, and let Kenny and Sid be!" Leaf exclaims.
Sid stands up. "Leaf, what are you doing?!" Sid exclaims.
"Sid, whatever you heard, you got it all wrong," Leaf said.
"What do you mean? I heard you and Kenny talking in the morning, Kenny was about to go talk to Dom. He wants to travel with him," Sid said.
Lacy smiles at that.
"You didn't hear the full conversation. He was going to go tell Dom that he will not travel with him. He didn't want to hurt his feelings since he likes Kenny," Leaf states.
Sid's eyes widen. Lacy noticed.
"It doesn't matter! Kenny is with Dom now! Sid and I agreed to leave once he beats Misty!" Lacy shouts.
"I don't think so. Sid, go back with Kenny. He's really sad that he had to leave you especially since you guys promised and all. He keeps his promises," Leaf states.
Sid smiles at that. Lacy was panicking.
"No! No! Sid, what about me? You're just going to leave me?" Lacy questions.
"Oh shut the hell up! Come on Sid, your partner is waiting for you!" Leaf said smiling.
Lacy notices Sid's blush when Leaf said partner. Lacy's eye twitches.
She looks at Leaf. Suddenly she slaps her. "B****! Sid is mine!" Lacy exclaims.
Sid stares in horror.
Feeling her face, Leaf stares in disbelief at Lacy.
"You want to get down you little sl**? Ok let's go!"
Leaf jumps on Lacy. They both were on the floor punching each other and pulling hair. Dust flies everywhere. Sid stares, uncertain on what to do.
"What in the world do you think you're doing?!"
Leaf was still grabbing Lacy's hair and was on top of her. It was Officer Jenny looking angrier than ever.
"Officer Jenny!" Leaf exclaims slamming Lacy's head on the floor, making her scream.
Leaf and Lacy stand up quickly.
"You girls are in big trouble for what you just did!" Officer Jenny states.
Leaf and Lacy exchange looks. "Great," Sid stated looking annoyed.
~~~~~~Red
Leaf and Lacy sat in different jail holders. Red was still shaking his head.
"That was so stupid of you guys," Red states looking mad.
"It was all her fault. If she would've just let me be with Sid! Now I'm locked in here like some druggie!" Lacy exclaims in agony.
"Oh shut up. We're both paying the price," Leaf states while playing with her hair. She looked sad that she was locked in there.
"Leaf, cheer up, you'll be out of there soon," Red said trying to make her smile.
Leaf looks at him. She walks up to him and sets her hands on the bars. "Remember how rebellious I was back then? I mean, I used to scam people money and stuff. Sometimes, I would wonder if I'll end up in jail. Now look at me," Leaf says looking sad.
Red reaches to her face.
"Those memories need to leave Leaf. You're not the same anymore. You're Leaf. Not Ms. Scammy Green," Red states.
Leaf presses her cheek on Red's rough hand. "I just want to get out of here. I'll dirty my suit you know," Leaf jokes.
Red smiles.
"Hello?! I'm still here!" Lacy said interrupting their moment.
"Oh look the bug is still in here," Leaf said with annoance.
Red sighs. "I'll visit in the morning. You should be able to get out then. I have to check up on Kenny."
Leaf nods. She feels his hand slip away. She stares at him leave. She smiles to herself.
"And you call me a sl**." Leaf turns to Lacy. "You are!" Leaf shouts.
"Really? I'm after Sid. You're after Red and Blue!" Lacy exclaims standing up.
Leaf blushes.
"You think I haven't noticed? The way you're all stupid with Blue. The way you just melt with Red. You want Red and Blue. It's sad really. It's Red and Blue, not Red and Green. Get your facts straight will you?" Lacy states throwing herself on the bed.
"Whatever. I don't have to listen to you!" Leaf said sitting down on the bed.
"Ok Leaf Green. I've done the same mistake as you. I feel in love with these two guys and in the end I ended up with neither. You're heading in that direction. Or you'll get one and destroy the other," Lacy continues to talk.
Leaf stayed quiet. "You know, that it's true don't you? I'm not how I was back then. I don't stop until I get what I want. You, you don't know what you want."
Leaf ignores her, but deep inside.... she felt that this was going to happen.
Red enters the Pokémon Center. Kenny was nowhere to be seen. "Hey, where's Kenny?" Red asks Satoshi.
"He went off to Route 25," Satoshi replies.
Red was about to exit when he sees Sid sitting down on the couch. He looked guilty.
Red walks up to him. "Sid, let's go. We're going to go find Kenny," Red tells him.
Sid looks up. "I don't know dude, I think I'm done being part of his journey now. I've caused so much trouble. Look where I ended up leaving Leaf and Lacy. It's my fault that they fought...." Sid states.
"Stop being a little stuck-up and be a freaking man!" Red said closing his fists.
Sid looked shocked.
"You're bigger and stronger than most kids and here you are whining like a little girl! Go talk to Kenny right now!" Red states looking pissed.
"Uh ok dude, chill out!" Sid panics. He stands up. He walks out of the Pokémon Center.
Satoshi was staring at Red. "You scare me sometimes," he said. Pikachu nods its head.
"I'm Red, I'm supposed to be scary," Red states.
"That's an understatement," said a voice. It was Misty.
She was wearing a yellow bikini now.
"Misty!" Red said while Satoshi stood up.
"I'm still waiting to face you two. Blue already moved on to Vermillion City!" she said.
"Aww! Gary is beating us!" Satoshi exclaims.
"No way, Blue beat you?" Red asked.
"Yes he did. He won fair and square. I'll be waiting in my gym. You guys better hurry though, it's pretty late," Misty said leaving.
"Great, Gary motherfreaking Oak is beating me," Satoshi said.
Brock enters the room. He was shirtless and had kiss marks all over the place. He was blushing uncontrollably.
"I'm not going to ask," Satoshi states looking annoyed.
Red was now thinking about Blue. Why is Blue one step ahead of him? Maybe he should be training out there. Red walks of the Pokémon Center. He walks to Route 24.
~~~~~~Kenny and Sid
Sid looks at Kenny who was sitting on a bench. It was the same bench that he was sitting with Lacy. The stars were starting to show. Kenny gets up and walks up to the railing and looks over the cliff. Sid sighs and walks up to Kenny.
He looks at Kenny. "What's up Ken?" Sid said with a wide smile.
Kenny was shocked. "Sid? What are you doing here?" Kenny questions.
"I wanted to say sorry for being an ass earlier today, I assumed too much haha," Sid said rubbing the back of his head. Kenny said nothing and looks out into the ocean.
"Sid, I should be apologizing to you. I thought that you actually wanted to travel with Lacy. I guess that when you went here in the Cape with Lacy I got somewhat... jealous." Kenny looks at Sid.
At first Sid didn't say anything but then said, "Actually, I didn't even like it being here with her. I felt so awkward you know. She's hot and all, but I want to really finish this journey with you. I promised to be your companion dude, and I want to keep that promise."
Silence.
Kenny looks at the sea. "Why did you ask me in the first place Sid? I know that you've answered in the past, yet I want to know why. I'm nothing but a nerd. I'm with books, sometimes, I can't stand not reading something. You and I are complete opposites. Why are you traveling with me?"
Sid gets a little bit closer to Kenny.
"Ken, I don't know why. It's like it was meant to happen you know. I didn't want to travel alone, and you were there. We both were late to get our starters and it just happened. I don't know how I would've made it here without you. I suck at talking with other people, yet when I'm with you I feel alright, alright? That's why I felt so bummed out that you were going away."
Kenny this whole time was blushing while Sid said all those things.
"Ken, you didn't mean all those things right? That you wanted to travel with Dom?" Sid asked.
"No! Absolutely not. Sid, what Dom and I had was... fascinating beyond words, but unfortunately, he left me, and I was alone. I suppose seeing you with Lacy made me feel lonesome; therefore the only other option was Dom. He left me, and I thought you were leaving as well," Kenny said.
Sid got closer, inches apart. "I won't leave unless I die dude. I won't leave you, not for the hottest girl in the world! You've been so nice to me and all, why would I leave you? We're companions remember?"
Kenny smiles. "Yes, yes we are. Sid, I wouldn't leave you," Kenny said turning his body.
Suddenly they were both cemtimeters apart, staring at each other's eyes. Kenny's heart was racing. Sid looked so serious.
"So partners? Until the end?" Sid said extending his hand. Kenny looks at his hand then at his beautiful brown eyes.
Kenny shakes it. "Partners, until the very end." Kenny said with a smile.
They start to lean in but then they hear laughter. The depart.
They turn to the ocean.
"About that one Lacy thing. Ken, if she's still into me after we're done with the journey, then I'll go after her, not before. Trainer first, love second. I promise you that!" Sid said smiling.
Kenny nods his head. They stare out into the ocean.
A couple passes them. "Don't those two look cute together?" the girls says. "Yeah, but not as cute as us babe," the guys says.
Kenny and Sid look at each other. They burst out laughing.
"Oh man, that was hilarious!" Sid cries out.
"I have to admit, that was rather random!" Kenny exclaims, laughing.
"I know right?! Imagine you and I dating? I wonder how that'll turn out!" Sid states.
"It would be interesting nonetheless!" Kenny laughs.
They suddenly stop laughing and turn to each other.
Kenny has a nosebleed.
Sid turns around blushing.
They stay quiet for three seconds.
"How 'bout some dinner?" Sid states.
"Yes, some food would be preferable," Kenny states.
They start walking down Route 25.
"I'm starving dude! Oh, this'll be my treat!"
"Sid, we agreed to combine all of our profit remember?"
"Oh... yeah. But, let's pretend I offered you the dinner."
"Well if you say so."
The two partners walk down the Route, happy to be together once again.
However a darker Pokémon was looking at them walk down the Route. It wanted to kill them. End them. Eat them.
~~~~~~Battle! Red Vs. Misty!
Red opens his eyes. He thought he had heard that Pikachu.
He realizes that it was now the next day, morning. He yawns.
He hears it again. The Pikachu giggles.
"I'm going to end up catching you watch!" Red said raising a fist.
The Pikachu sends sparks all over the place. It gets on its fours and sparks fly off its cheeks.
"You want to battle?" Red questions.
Pi-Ka!
"Alright then, go Charmander!" Red says.
He throws the Pokeball into the air and his Charmander comes out.
It cries out to the Pikachu. The Pikachu smiles.
It jumps into the air and sends a powerful ThunderShock.
Charmander moves out of the way.
"Charmander, Ember!" Red shouts.
Charmander breathes fire towards the Pikachu, burning it.
The Pikachu falls to the ground. It gets back up. It suddenly started multiplying, it was using Double Team!
Charmander was suddenly surrounded.
"Ember!" Charmander blows fire, but misses.
The Pikachu jumps in the air, about ten other Pikachu jump in the air as well. Only one Pikachu was revealed to be real, and it used ThunderShock. Charmander was shocked.
Charmander's tail flame grew bigger.
The Pikachu notices. It was going to jump on a bush, but Charmander grabs it by its tail and slams it on the ground.
"Ember!" Red exclaims.
Charmander jumps in the air and sends fire towards it. It was a hit. The Pikachu screams in pain. It was panting.
Red adjusts his hat. He enlarges a Greatball that he had found while walking around Route 25.
"Go, Greatball!" Red says throwing it.
The Pikachu stares hopelessly as the ball hits it.
The Pokémon disappears in the Greatball, and it starts to shake. After days of trying to catch it, the Pokeball comes to a halt.
"Yes!" Red said out loud.
He walks up to it. Suddenly, the Pikachu gets out! Red stares in bewilderment.
Charmander was starting to get pumped up.
The Pikachu looks at Charmander and shakes its head.
The Pikachu walks up to Red. It bows down to him.
Red smiles. "You know, you've been stealing a lot from people and causing trouble. It's good to see you finally in safe hands. Other people would've thought you were rouge and put you to sleep," Red states kneeling down to it.
The Pikachu smiles and rubs the back of its head while electricity crackles from its cheeks.
"Back in Pewter City, I thought of a name for you. Would you like the name Pika?"
The Pikachu nods its head and jumps on Red's shoulder.
"Alright Pika, let's go!" Red said.
They march off.
Char!
Charmander cries and runs after them.
Red enters the Police Station. He walks up to Officer Jenny.
"Hello, Red. Coming to see Leaf?" Officer Jenny asks.
"Yeah. Can she come out today?" Red asked.
"Nope. I'm supposed to leave them in there until an adult gets them out, but I guess I'll release them if they're willing to do some work around Cerulean City," Officer Jenny said.
They walk into the holding cells. Leaf and Lacy were both on their beds.
"Hey Leaf," Red said. Leaf looks up and her face brightened. "Red!"
"How was you're sleep?" Red asks.
"A nightmare. Especially with me having to hear what this girl had to say," Leaf states.
"Whatever Leaf," Lacy says in the background. Red shakes his head.
"I will release you two later, and you two have some community service! Refusing to do it will result in your parents coming in here and temporarily banishing you from being a Pokémon Trainer!" Officer Jenny stated looking mean.
"You can ban us from being Pokémon Trainers?!" Leaf shouts in shock.
"Yes I can! Now Red, move along, I want to discuss with these ladies."
Red nods and turns to Leaf. "If you want, I'll wait for you outside," Red said.
"No, remember this is a race. Go fight Misty. Ugh, I can't believe I'm persuading Red to go fight Misty."
Red smiles. "I'll talk to you later. Be nice!" Red walks out the building.
He stops in front of the Cerulean Gym.
"Misty."
Suddenly, he sees Dom come out of the gym.
"Oh, hey Red. You don't happen to have seen Kenny? I've got my badge, so I was wondering if wanted to go have breakfast with me," Dom explains.
"No, I haven't. A word of advice: no one likes a two-faced ass****."
Red walks by Dom who looked shocked.
"Oh Red, you have no idea how much of a two faced person I can be," Dom said. He walks away, but he sees something move fast to the left. He ignores it and continues on.
It was the murderous Pokemon. And it was very hungry. It will eat soon. Very soon.
Red walks inside the Gym. He sees Misty at the end of the gym.
"Red! I was expecting you yesterday, this is a surprise!" Misty exclaims.
Red was looking around. "Don't be frightened Red! Come here and face me!"
Red walks all the way at the end.
A girl looks at Red. "Hold it! Misty can wait!" She walks up to Red.
"What? You? I'm more than good enough than you! Misty won't have to be bothered!" The girl raises her Pokeball. Red readies his.
"Go Goldeen!"
"Go Bulbasaur!"
Both Pokémon stare at each other. "Vine Whip!"
Bulbasaur hits it and sends it flying into the water. It was super effective, but it was still moving!
"Goldeen, SuperSonic!"
Goldeen tried to send a wave of sound to it, but it failed!
"Bulba, Vine Whip!"
There was a small ding. "No more PP left," said the Pokedex.
"What?" Red exclaims. He suddenly remembers that he was training with it all last night.
"Goldeen, use SuperSonic again!"
There was a loud screech and Bulbasaur wobbles a bit. It was confused.
"Bulbasaur, Tackle it!" Red exclaims.
The Bulbasaur jumps in the air and fails to even land of the water, hurting itself.
"Tail Whip!" the girl exclaims. Goldeen shakes its tail, lowering Bulbasaur's defense.
"Bulbasaur, Tackle!" This time, Bulbasaur wasn't confused and it jumps into the air, and dives right into the water, tackling Goldeen. It had fainted.
Bulbasaur swims to the shore. It smiles at Red. "Yes!" Red exclaims.
Suddenly, the Pokedex did a weird sound.
Bulbasaur started to turn white. It starts to spin around and around, the light begins to glow and get brighter. The light then turns to a green color and the light fades. Bulbasaur was no longer Bulbasaur.
It lets out its cry. Red stares in disbelief.
"Congratulations, your Bulbasaur evolved into Ivysaur!" said the Pokedex.
Red stares at his new Pokémon. He walks up to it. He pets it.
"Huh, I was expecting you evolve," Red said.
His Pokémon cries out a happy cheer.
"Wow Red, is that your first evolved Pokémon?" Misty asks.
"Yeah. I'm lucky, I got two starters rather than one. All I have to do is fight with Charmander and he'll evolve too."
Misty smiles. Red returns his Pokémon. "Now, about our battle?"
Misty walks to her place. "Well Red, I want a nice battle out of you. Ever since I came, only three have managed to beat me. Will you be the fourth? Was is your approach? Being a new face in Cerulean, I'll tell you what my strategy is! I'm all out offensive with Water Type Pokémon!"
Misty twirls around, sending water all over the place, she stops and extends her arm up in the air and extends the other one. She smiles, sets her hand next to her face and shows a piece sign and winks at Red. "I choose you, Staryu!" Misty exclaims.
"Go Pika!"
Both Pokémon face each other.
"Staryu, use Tackle!" Misty exclaims.
Her Pokémon flies in high speeds towards Pika. The mouse was hit right across the face, hurting it.
Pika wipes blood of its mouth, electricity crackles from its cheeks.
"Pika, use ThunderShock!" Red yells.
Pika jumps in the air and sends a good amount of shock to it, but it still held on.
"Use Tackle again!" Misty commands.
Pika saw this coming and jumps in the air. It lands on top of it. "Use ThunderShock!" The electric mouse shocks it. Staryu was now blinking red.
"Staryu use Water Pulse!"
Staryu sends its attack. Pika barely moved.
"ThunderShock now!"
This move was so strong that all the lights above the in the ceiling flickered. It fainted.
"Wow Red! You're pretty good, but it's time to face Starmie!"
Misty sets a serious face and looks at Red. She sets her arms into the air and twirls sending water everywhere. She shows her Pokeball, enlarging it, and yells "Go Starmie!" Her Pokémon comes out and shakes water of itself.
"Let's do this Pika! ThunderShock!" Pika jumps in the air.
"Water Pulse!"
Starmie sends the water move to Pika. It was a correct hit, and Pika falls into the water.
"No!" Red worries.
"Starmie, into the water!"
The water Pokémon jumps in the water. Pika surfaces.
"Water Pulse!" "Pika, ThunderShock!" Pika sends electricity all over the giant pool.
Starmie comes right out. It was giving random sparks.
"Damn!" Misty exclaims. Pika gets out of the water. Sparks fly of its cheeks.
"Pika, use ThunderShock!" Pika runs and jumps in the air. It sends electricity down to Starmie. It was now blinking red.
"Starmie, take my Potion!" Misty yells. She throws it and Starmie breaks it in the air, consuming its fluids. It was no longer blinking red.
Red stares in horror. "ThunderShock!"
Pika does the move and Starmie was hit. It was now blinking red again.
"Water Pulse!" The water hits Pika. The poor Pokémon was flipped into the air and smashes against the wall. It faints.
"Go Ivysaur!" Red shouts. He throws the Pokeball and his Pokémon comes out.
"Don't think it's over Red!" Starmie, use Recover!" Starmie absorbs in energy, recovering some health!
"Ivysaur, Poison Powder!" The powder hits Starmie, poisoning it.
"Water Pulse!" The attack hits, but it only made Ivysaur slide a few inches. It was still standing nice and tall due to its ineffectiveness.
"Ivysaur, Leech Seed!" Ivysaur sends a a seed to Starmie in which it was then stuck on. Vines surround it. Starmie shakes of a deep purple.
"Damn! Starmie use Tackle!"
The water Pokémon hits with enough force to pop Ivysaur into the air.
"Water Pulse!" The attack connects sending it all the way up into the ceiling. It hits it, and causes it to break a little. It falls.
"Now, use Tackle!" It flies and hits it, sending it to the water bellow. Starmie dives into the water.
"Ivysaur, get out and Tackle!"
It swims to shore and the moment it touched the floor, it was tackled from behind. Knocking it out. Starmie shakes purple. It was now blinking red again.
"Go Charmander!" Red shouts.
Charmander comes out. It looks around. It sees Pika fainted at the entrance. Ivysaur floating on the water. Starmie lands in front of Charmander.
Looking tall.
"I've been dying for you to choose Charmander. It's time for me to show you how a true overpowered Gym Leader I can be! Starmie, Bubblebeam!"
Charmander didn't have time to react. A stream of hard bubbles hit Charmander. It goes on to the floor while it was still being hit. It cries out in pain. The move stopped, and Charmander could barely get up.
"Charmander use Ember!" Red shouts.
Charmander shakes its head and breathes fire to Starmie. The water Pokémon was consumed by fire. Starmie still stood.
"Really Red? You really just used that move? Why in the world did you use that move when any other physical attack could've finished me off? Why fire on water?" Misty exclaims in anger.
"Wait for it," Red says.
Suddenly Starmie shakes into a darker purple color, and a white light flies to Charmander. Starmie fainted.
"Huh?" Misty shouts.
"I needed to stall you. So I used Ember for then Charmander would win. Leech Seed and Poison Powder. Nice combination. And I also used Ember to prove that fire can beat water!"
Misty looks shocked.
Red returns all his Pokémon.
"I can't believe I lost! All right! You can have the Cascade Badge to show you beat me!" Misty flashes the Badge to Red.
"You did very well Red. I loved the way you battled, nice strategy. If you keep things like this, no one will be able to beat you Red. Anyway, the Cascade Badge makes all Pokémon up to Level 30 obey! That includes even outsiders! There's more, you can now use Cut any time! You can cut down small bushes to open new paths! You can also have my favorite TM!"
Misty gives him a CD.
"Does every Gym Leader hand out a TM?" Red asks.
"I think so. Red, TM11 teaches BubbleBeam! Use it on an aquatic Pokémon!" Red takes it.
"Thanks, Misty," Red states.
"You're the first one since I came back that has said that Red. So you're welcome. Now move get out of here, I have to tighty up for my next Gym Battle," Misty says.
Red smiles. He runs out the door. Misty smiles to herself.
Daisy walks up to her. "Well Misty, you lost again. Is there anything that you're good at?" her sister speaks adjusting her hair.
"Whatever Daisy. Red can actually win the Pokémon League," Misty states. She sits on the matt.
"What about that boy you followed, Satoshi?" Misty suddenly looks angered.
"That boy isn't even capable of training his starter, Pikachu! He won't make t to the top!" Misty says.
"Why so much hate little sister?"
"He toasted my bike! Which reminds me, I'm supposed to get a new one right now!"
Misty gets up.
"If anyone comes in here, tell them I'm out shopping!" Misty exclaims as she exits her gym.
~~~~~~Red
Red enters the Pokémon Center where Sid and Kenny were talking.
"-and there's a desert, Route 111," Red manages to hear Sid say.
"Salutations Red!" Kenny salutes.
Sid turns. "Red! Where'd you been? I've been looking for you. I wanted to thank you about that one thing you made me do. Thanks," Sid tells Red.
"No problem. Look, I beat Misty," Red said showing his new badge on his hand.
Kenny and Sid stare.
"We need to won her dude," Sid said to Kenny.
"We shall. I fought her already, and I lost. There's only one thing left to do. Train."
Sid smiles at that. Red shrugs. "You guys better hurry, after Leaf's out of jail business, I think that I'll move on."
Kenny nods. "We've caused so much trouble to Leaf..." Kenny says looking gloom.
Red sets his hand on his shoulder. "I'm sure that she'll forgive you. You two really do make a great team, so don't be mad at each other anymore."
Both companions nod and look at each other.
"Well you better get going on to train," Red commands.
"Yes sir!" Kenny responds. Sid and Kenny disappear behind the door.
Red walks up to the Video Phone. He dials his mother.
"Red!" his mother shouts when she answered.
"Sorry I couldn't get to you earlier this week Mom. Did you make it to Pallet Town ok?" Red asks.
"Yes sweetie! I was thinking of visiting Mrs. Ketchum right now. How are you doing?"
"I'm ok Mom. I just defeated Misty. I'm off to the next city soon, I wanted to check on you."
Red's mother smiles.
"Thank you for checking on me Red. I'm ok sweetie. I hope you have a safe trip to the next city," Red's mother says.
"I will. I love you Mom, take care," Red states.
"Goodbye honey!" Red hangs up. He sighs.
"Hey, Red!" He turns. It was Yellow. Her Pikachu, ChuChu was on her shoulder.
Red smiles. "Hey Jaune! How are you, I haven't seen you since Mt. Moon."
Yellow slightly blushes. "It's nice to know that you missed me," she says.
"Of Course I did. I have a question I've been dying to ask you Jaune."
Yellow's heart begins to race.
"Are you traveling to win badges?"
Yellow's nervous emotion dies off.
"I'm just trying to get to Saffron actually. My dad needs to answer my questions."
Red's smile fades. "Oh. You know, back in Trainer School, I always thought you lived in Viridian City, not the forest," Red states.
"I lived with my Grandma. She wants me to go find my dad. Remember that message that the President of Silph Co. said on TV? That I'm his daughter? Well he visit me one day, but that's it. I need to know more Red. Why did he abandon us," Yellow states staring at Red's brown eyes.
Red gets up. "Hey, let's not think about that right now. Want some ice cream?"
Yellow smiles. "I'd love some!"
Delia walks to the living room.
She sees Viper sitting there.
"How is Red doing?" he asks drinking a glass of vodka.
"He's ok. Now, what do you want?" Delia asks coldly.
"I want what you want. Answers. The Boss is taking a short vacation, and he instructed me to lead Team Rocket temporarily. Now listen closely when I say this: where is Grey's stone? He had it the day he died, and disappeared the next day. You were that last person that he only cared about. Where is it? It could lead to discoveries beyond your comprehension. If I get it, I become Executive and takeover Team Rocket as my own. Where is it Delia?"
Red's mother said nothing.
"Well?"
"I don't have it. Go ask Samuel," Delia says staring at him deep into his eyes.
"I asked that old bastard already and said that he doesn't have it either. Well, I've asked nicely, so I will come back when you're more cooperative. Until then, think about it will you? That stone will please my Boss a lot," Viper says.
He gets up and walks to the door.
"Good day, sister," Viper said and left.
Delia sighs, and looks inside the pocket of her apron.
She grabs the stone. It was a weird stone, a stone that Grey used to use on his Charizard. Delia squeezes it. If only she knew how to use it.
Suddenly the doors burst open.
Samuel, Hanako, and Adrian come inside.
"Delia, are you alright?" Samuel asks.
"Yes, Viper didn't hurt me. He wanted Grey's stone. Why?" Delia questions.
Samuel looks around. "Adrian, close the door." Adrian does so. Samuel sits down on the table.
Delia, Hanako, and Adrian sit as well.
"Delia, that stone has immense power. I don't fully understand, but it helps its trainer and Pokémon. My guess is that Team Rocket found out about its power. All I know is that this stone is one of two stones that Grey had. The other could might as well be in Team Rocket's hand."
"We should be calling the police!" Hanako tells Oak.
"No, Mrs. Ketchum. I've dealt with Team Rocket a long time ago. Remember?"
Hanako nods.
"What happened?" Adrian asked.
"You were still in Vermillion City when this happened, but a long story short, they did horrible things and created a monster. Mewtwo was created, and my colleagues and I are still trying to narrow it down. We don't know where it could be. My guess is Mt. Silver, but it's far too dangerous."
Samuel gets up and walks up to the window from the kitchen.
"Samuel. How dangerous is this Pokémon?" Adrian questions.
"It has killed at least half of the back then Team Rocket. It spared Delia's husband. There's something about that Pokémon...."
"We shouldn't have set Satoshi and the others to go on a journey!" Hanako says.
"It's better that they went out. Now that we're alone here, the kids won't be wondering what we have to do with Team Rocket. They can never learn the truth," Oak spoke.
"Red already knows about Grey's involvement. It was documented you know," Delia says.
"He only know fractions of the truth. A dark truth. You must all promise me. Promise me that our children will never know the truth about Team Rocket. If they would to find out, they would shun us forever."
The adults stand up.
"I promise with my life," Delia says.
"Me too," Hanako swears.
"I promise," Adrian repeats.
Samuel looks out into the window.
"Let's hope that the kids don't get into trouble with them. Let's hope things stay quiet."
~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto
"Viper!" Butch exclaims.
Viper stares at him. "What?"
"It's Team Magma! They're in the Video Phone!"
Viper swallows hard. He enters the Boss' office. He walks up to the screen.
He sees Tabitha.
"Where is your leader?" Tabitha asks.
"He's out somewhere. What do you want?"
"The High Counselor wants a meeting tomorrow. Same location. Tell that to your boss."
Tabitha hangs up.
Viper looked worried. Archer and Domino walk up to him.
"Archer, you're the Executive, get the Boss' suit ready, the orange one. He has to go to Unova today. Take the jet to the Sevii Islands. Domino, you're with me. Now that there's news about a meeting, there's no doubt going to be chaos. Get the grunts ready. Now!" Viper shouts.
Archer nods and runs elsewhere.
Domino runs off.
"Oakley! Annie!" The two assassins come up to him.
"You're our best fighters. Get prepared. It's going down today. I want this place in lockdown!"
He exits the room and sees people running about.
"What about the grunts that outside doing missions?" Oakley asks.
"Let them stay there. I can't believe that they decided to do a meeting without warning!" Viper says.
"Arianna handles this very well. You look like crap," Archer said walking off with the Boss' suit.
Viper shakes his head. "Get the guns ready!"
Viper hears grunts yell from across the hideout.
"Who's coming?" Tyson asked.
"Who else is coming? Team Cipher and Team Dim Sun. They always want to takeover Kanto, as if Almia and Orre aren't enough."
Tyson shakes his head. He cocks his gun.
~~~~~~Battle! Sid Vs. Misty!
Sid and Kenny have been training all day. It was now getting dark.
"Well, I'm sure that I could beat Misty now. Deerling's at level 21. Sandshrew is at Level 20."
Kenny returns his Pokémon.
"Alright dude, I think my new Bellsprout should do the trick right?" Sid questions.
"Don't let it fool you."
It was Leaf. She had a giant black bag with her.
"Leaf! You're out of jail?"
"Only if I work until 8:00pm. It's hard picking up trash you know!"
Kenny looks at her and gives her a thankful look. Leaf saw it and smiles.
"Well, if you're going to fight Misty, you guys better hurry, it's getting late." Leaf walks away.
"I think I'll battle her right now," Sid states.
"Ok, but remember, Misty is tough," Kenny states looking worried.
They start walking back to Cerulean City.
Sid sets an arm around Kenny. "We won't stop until we reach the Pokémon League remember? We're going to beat Misty and the gym after that! We'll be winning everyone!" Sid says.
Kenny blushes. "I guess so."
Sid looks at Kenny. He notices that he still had his beanie on. "Hey Ken, let me see your hair please!"
"Don't even think about it Sid!"
"C'mon Ken, I'm dying to see what your hair looks like!"
"Well, since you asked nicely, then I will kindly refuse."
"Huh?! Come one let me see!"
Kenny pushes Sid arm away. "Absolutely not!" Kenny states in a playful manner.
"Sid!" said a loud booming voice. Kenny jumps in the air. They turn to see a man with black hair and red dyed stripes. He wore an opened black shirt that showed muscles and a six pack. He wore blue jeans and red and white shoes.
"Dad?!" Sid exclaims in wonder.
"Come give your father a hug!" His father walks up to him and hugs him. He lifts Sid off the ground and squeezes hard. Sid's face turns blue. The man lets him go.
"Son, I thought that you would be farther than here! I was thinking of going off to Lavender Town!" Sid's father asserted.
Kenny stood staring.
"Dad, I was going to fight Misty right now..."
"Ah! So, my son was going to go win a Gym Badge eh? That's the spirit! Huh?"
Sid's father turns to Kenny who freezes. "Hey Sid, you haven't introduced me to your boyfriend yet," Sid's dad states.
"Dad!" Sid blushes.
Kenny has a nosebleed.
"Haha! I'm just screwing with you boy! Hey look! Your boyfriend has a nosebleed! Whatya thought of boy? Me or my son?"
Kenny's nosebleed worsens.
"Dad! He has a condition! And he's not my boyfriend! I like girls!" Sid remarked.
"You don't know 'till you try! Anyway, what's your name kid?"
"K-Kenny," was all the poor guy could say.
"You look smart. You smart?" Kenny nods.
"Well I guess you're the top sonny," Sid's father laughs.
Kenny's nosebleed explodes while Sid now gets a nosebleed. "DAD!"
"I'm only playin'! You thought about it though, look at your nose boy!"
"Dammit Dad, why are you here?"
"Oh that's right! You're Mom told me to give you this!" Sid's father flashes a device.
"No way!" Sid wailed. His eyes had light up.
"That's right, you get a PokeNav!"
Kenny walks up to the device. "Intriguing, I heard that these come from the Hoenn region?"
"That's right! Here Sid, whenever you're mother wants to call ya, we'll just dial! You can also check the map, browse the web, and text. We didn't put parental lock on the web, so try not to get caught while you're at!"
Sid's face turns red. Kenny turns around. "Dad, you're embarrassing me."
"Oh calm down boy! Well, I'm off to Vermillion City. Later love birds! And hurry and beat the Gym Leader will ya?" Sid's father gets on a car and drives off.
There was an awkward silence.
"You're father was.... different," Kenny states.
"....Let's...go battle Misty..."
The two friends walk down Route 25.
Sid stood in front of the gym. Kenny walks up behind him.
"Sid, Misty is pretty strong."
Sid nods." I have hope for my Pokémon."
Sid and Kenny stare at the gym.
"Sid, I hope you win."
Sid looks at Kenny. "I'm gonna win Ken! Besides, I promised my dad that'll beat the Kanto Gym Leaders then visit Hoenn to fight those guys. I wonder what Gym Leader May's at right now..."
Kenny turns around. "Sid, I'll wait inside the Pokémon Center." He walks away.
Sid smiles. "Well, here I go."
Kenny was about to enter the Pokémon Center when he was grabbed. It was Dom. "Dom?"
He was sweating.
"Kenny, I thought you were going to travel with me and leave that fatass!" Dom exclaims.
Kenny pulls his arms away. "I for one don't appreciate you calling him that Dom. Since when did you go around and start making fun of people?! You would never say such things!"
Dom smiles.
"People change."
"Yes they do! Farewell Dom," Kenny says as he enters the Pokémon Center.
Dom frowns.
"Harder than we thought huh?"
It was Lacy.
"How the hell do you always know where I am?"
"We're traveling together by fate remember? We have to separate them, that's our roll in the story!" Lacy says out loud.
"Not anymore. I'm done. Kenny doesn't even want to see me I'm guessing," Dom said.
"We cannot be done! So you're just going to let Sid, a big guy, smother your beloved Kenny? The guy you've loved since you were kids? Sid has already hugged Kenny. Soon it'll be kisses then straight to the bed!"
Dom's eyes widen.
"No...."
"YES! Don't you see? They're falling in love, and love only leads to the forever after. Dom, we're far from over."
Dom looks at the ground. "I keep being set farther and farther away."
"I have a plan for that."
Sid returns his Pokémon. "Good job Sid!" Misty exclaims.
He walks up to her. "I defeated your trainee!" Sid shouts with glee.
"You did, but what Brock told me off your battle, you won't last!" Misty exclaims.
"You talked to Brock about my battle?"
"Of course we did! We talked about Satoshi, Kenny, Leaf's and Red's. Including yours. Sid, you're distracted again?"
"Not this time!"
"Good, I want a nice battle Sid!"
Misty twirls around, sending water all over the place, she stops and extends her arm up in the air and extends the other one. She smiles, sets her hand next to her face and shows a piece sign and winks at Sid. "I choose you, Staryu!" Misty exclaims.
"Go, Bellsprout!"
Both Pokémon stare at each other. It all was quiet.
"Staryu, Tackle!" Bellsprout did an impossible turn, and Misty's Pokémon misses.
"Bellsprout, use Poison Powder!" Using its mouth, it sprays purple dust that hits Staryu. It turns purple for a while and goes back to its color.
"Staryu, aim for the head, Tackle!"
Staryu flies forward and hits it. Bellsprout was still able to fight.
"Vine Whip!" Sid exclaims.
Sid's Pokémon extends an arm and Staryu was thrown into the air. It falls on the ground. It shakes purple and it stops moving.
"Holy crap, that was fast!" Misty says looking impressed.
"Damn right!" Sid states adjusting his head bandana.
"Well Sid, you still have one more!"
Misty sets a serious face and looks at Sid. She sets her arms into the air and twirls sending water everywhere. She shows her Pokeball, enlarging it, and yells "Go Starmie!" Her Pokémon comes out and shakes water of itself.
"Bellsprout, use Poison Powder!" it was a direct hit, and Starmie was poisoned.
"Starmie, use Tackle!"
Bellsprout moves out of the way. To its surprise, it comes back like a boomerang and poor Bellsprout was knocked into the water. Bellsprout swims to shore.
"Starmie, use Tackle!" Misty said raising an arm.
Starmie dives into the water. Bellsprout reached the path.
Starmie ejects out of the water, spinning in high speeds and hits it. Bellsprout was knocked to the wall and it faints.
Starmie shakes and turns dark purple.
"Go Squirtle!" Sid exclaims.
"Starmie, use Tackle!" Starmie flies.
Squirtle screams and ducks.
Starmie was still flying and hits Sid on his feet. Sid screams in pain and slams his face on the floor.
"Sorry Sid, but toughen up! Starmie, use Tackle!"
"Squirtle, jump and Bite!" Sid said looking up. His nose was bleeding and he was all wet from his shirt.
Squirtle jumps into the air and Starmie was right on the bottom of it when Squirtle slams down on Starmie while it was still spinning. It was now riding it. Squirtle bites down, and it was super effective!
Starmie and Squirtle crash into the wall.
Starmie got up. Squirtle stares in fear.
"Squirtle, swim to me!" Sid shouts as drops of blood was falling of his face.
Squirtle head dives into the water.
"Follow and Tackle!" Misty exclaims.
Starmie turns purple and follows.
It was now a race. Squirtle was going as fast as it could, but Starmie was closing in. Squirtle jumps into the air, Starmie following and spinning. Squirtle was hit, and was now spinning clockwise. Starmie was still going upwards and gets stuck on the ceiling.
Squirtle falls into the water and swims to Sid.
Starmie wiggles itself and falls back to the water. It jumps on the land.
"Starmie, Use Water Pulse!" Squirtle jumps away.
"Bite!" Squirtle tackles Starmie to the floor and bites it on its jewel, breaking it. It was super effective!
Starmie was now blinking red.
"It's not over, Starmie, Potion!"
Starmie was about to push Squirtle out of the way until it turns purple and stops moving.
Misty stares blankly.
"Oh yeah!" Sid shouts and jumps in the air. Squirtle cheers and jumps with Sid.
Misty returns her Pokémon.
"Well, I guess that you won. In honor of your winning, here's your badge," Misty said walking up to Sid.
She suddenly slips and the Badge falls into the water.
Sid takes his backpack off and dives into the water.
After a few seconds he comes back out.
"In Hoenn, it's necessary to know how to swim, haha," Sid states covering his nose. He gets up. He shows the badge.
"With that badge, you're closer to the Pokémon League. Here's your TM, Sid," Misty said looking impressed at Sid's amazing swimming skills. She also hands over a towl. Sid takes the items and sets the towl on his ever so bleeding nose. He puts in his TM Case and returns Squirtle.
"Sid, you battled really well. I thought this was going to be an easy win, but I was wrong. Now get out, I have to heal my Pokémon for the next battle," Misty states.
Sid smiles. "Thanks for the badge Misty!" Sid runs out.
Misty sighs and smiles.
~~~~~~Battle! Kenny Vs. Misty!
Kenny was waiting inside the Pokémon Center.
"Ken!" Sid yells disturbing all the trainers inside the Pokémon Center.
"I did it dude!" Sid says showing the badge.
Kenny smiles. "You defeated her! Yet you're all wet.... And your nose!"
"I know dude, I told ya she didn't stand a chance!" Sid said standing tall and proud.
"Well, I suppose it is my turn," Kenny states. They walk out the Pokémon Center.
"Hey Sid, so what do you think of the battle? Was it too hard?"
"It was hard alright, but I guess I made it through. Ken, just be careful with her Starmie, it's very powerful and fast," Sid warns.
"Of course. Hopefully the training will pull off. I will meet with you elsewhere Sid!" Kenny states running off into the gym.
Sid stares at him then at his badge.
"Well, you won," Lacy says walking up behind him.
"Lacy! Hey, I need to talk to you," Sid says.
"No need, I already know. You prefer to travel with Kenny until the journey is over, I get it it."
Sid smiles. "Thanks for understanding."
"No problem. But when you do have time," Lacy said wrapping her arms around Sid's neck, "how about you take me to Cerulean Cape. After the journey's done."
Sid blushes. "Uh- ok!"
Lacy takes her arms away and purposely walks in a certain way that shows her ass.
Sid stares at it and gets and his nosebleed explodes.
Kenny was walking around the gym. There were no trainees around. Just Misty.
"Well, I guess that you're back. You're not here to disappoint me again now are you?"
"Misty, I made a fatal mistake, therefore I apologize. But unfortunately, I will have to apologize for your defeat as well," Kenny said raising a Pokeball.
Misty twirls around, sending water all over the place, she stops and extends her arm up in the air and extends the other one. She smiles, sets her hand next to her face and shows a piece sign and winks at Kenny. "I choose you, Staryu!" Misty exclaims.
"Go, Deerling!"
"Such a cute Pokémon, but it's over Kenny! Staryu, use Tackle!"
Deerling jumps out of the way.
"Deerling, use Double Kick!" Deerling kicks Staryu away.
Staryu slides and stops. "Staryu, use Water Pulse!" Staryu throws water at Deerling, hitting it.
Deerling was still standing.
"Deerling, use Grass Whistle!" Kenny shouts.
Deerling stands still and a beautiful breezing tone escapes and hits Staryu.
It then falls asleep. "What?" Misty exclaims.
"Deerling, use Feint Attack!"
Deerling walks up to it, and then suddenly uses its front hove to hit it. Staryu was still asleep!
"Deerling, Tackle!" Deerling tackles it, knocking it out.
Misty sets a serious face and looks at Kenny. She sets her arms into the air and twirls sending water everywhere. She shows her Pokeball, enlarging it, and yells "Go Starmie!" Her Pokémon comes out and shakes water of itself.
"Deerling, Leech Seed!" Kenny shouts.
The move connects.
"Tackle!"
Deerling was hit very hard and was sent up.
"Water Pulse!" Deerling was knocked more into the air and this time crashes up into the ceiling. Deerling falls down. It could barely get up. Light flies to Deerling giving it some health.
"Finish it, use Tackle!"
Starmie flies towards them. Kenny waited. Deerling was standing still.
"Now, use Grass Whistle!" Deerling dodges and uses the move.
Starmie falls asleep and kept spinning everywhere out of control. Starmie narrowly hits Kenny. It was flying everywhere.
"Kenny, look at what you did!" Misty exclaims.
"I'll fix it! Deerling, Faint Attack!" Deerling jumps in the air and Starmie was just about to hit it when Deerling uses its move. Starmie was knocked to the water, the move being super effective. A white light flies to Deerling.
It was over. Starmie floated in the air. Misty stares.
Kenny returns his Pokémon.
"Okay, I did not see that coming. Kenny, you did very well. You and Sid shocked me. Here's your Cascade Badge as proof of you beating me!" Misty hands over the badge.
Kenny's face lights up.
"Your TM, it contains Bubblebeam. Use on Water Types!"
Kenny nods his head.
"Kenny, I'm glad that this time you actually did well. Now go on. I have to heal my Pokémon."
Kenny looks back at Misty. "Do you Gym Leaders have some sort of machine that heals your Pokémon?" Kenny asks.
"Yes we do. Now move along Kenny. I have to get ready for my next challenger."
Kenny smiles and walks out the gym.
~~~~~~Rematch! Leaf Vs. Gym Leader Misty!
Leaf sighs. It was now the next day, and she was released. She was working all day yesterday.
"Leaf!" She freezes and turns to see her father.
"Daddy?! What are you doing here?!" Leaf asks looking surprised.
"Leaf, I wanted to see you sweetie!"
Leaf sighs. "How do you even know that I'm in Cerulean City dad?"
"I saw your PokeGram post. Anyway, I also saw that you wanted a new suit since the one you're wearing is already used up, so I brought you this dress!" He shows Leaf a black dress.
"My old dress..."
"That's right honey, I brought it for you!"
Leaf runs her fingers through it. This dress brings back memories of when she was so greedy.
Leaf's father sees her face.
"You don't want this one? I knew I should've brought your outfit from the Orange Islands ritual!"
Leaf shakes her head. "No it's fine daddy. I'll wear it. Now go away!"
Leaf pushes her dad to his car. "Honey, you need anything else?"
"No dad! I'm an official trainer, I have to toughen up!" Leaf closes the door.
"Ok honey, see you later!" He drives off.
Leaf sighs and clutches her dress. These past memories are still following her. Maybe Red can cheer her up.
She walks around Cerulean City. She sees Red and Yellow walking around. She was about to go say something to them when she suddenly heard something. She looks around and sees a dark alley. A Team Rocket Grunt enters. Leaf looks around and follows.
"Boss, are you sure? It's already bad enough that I'm the only one doing this!"
"Yes you idiot! I don't have time for backtracking! I have a meeting! Find out what those Magma Grunts are doing here and end them!"
"Sure thing Boss!" Leaf listened.
She was wondering who on Earth was that grunt talking too, the Boss' voice was all electrical, that couldn't be his real voice. And Magma? Leaf walks away.
"I should go to Officer Jenny," Leaf says out loud. She was about to go when she stops.
"If I go to her, she'll think I'm lying. I already have this stupid thing with Lacy now. Maybe I'll tell her tomorrow. I have to go put this dress on."
Leaf exits the Pokémon Center with her dress.
Red and Yellow suddenly come up to her. Red stares at her.
"Leaf! Isn't that your old dress?" Yellow asks.
"I know. I guess that it still fits perfectly."
Red stayed silent.
"Well it was nice seeing you Jaune. Later Red," Leaf says winking at him.
Red has a red mark go through his face.
Yellow notices. She looks at Leaf walk away then at Red. "You like her don't you?"
Red doesn't say anything and walks inside the Pokémon Center. Yellow follows.
Leaf was about to enter the gym when Blue calls her name.
"Well, well, well. Guess who has an old look?"
Leaf slightly blushes. "Thanks for noticing."
Blue was going to say something when suddenly a mob of girls run up to him. "Look! It is him! Blue Gary Oak!"
"Oh my God, he's so cute!"
"I think I just touched his butt!"
Leaf stares blankly as all the girls take him away. She looks down at the floor.
"Blue is nothing more but a freaking womanizer, but he's still hot as hell."
She enters the gym. Misty was on her matt.
"Leaf! You're back! I heard what happened, couldn't you stay off from trouble?" Misty mocks.
Leaf smiles. "Nope, you know me, I love all the latest fashion trends, and getting in trouble seems to be one."
SPLASH! Leaf was now completely soaked. She screams. Staryu swims up to Misty.
"Staryu is really sorry!" She returns her Pokémon.
"This is my old new dress! You are so going to get beat today!" Leaf walks up to Misty.
She readies her Pokeball.
Misty twirls around, sending water all over the place, she stops and extends her arm up in the air and extends the other one. She smiles, sets her hand next to her face and shows a piece sign and winks at Leaf. "I choose you, Staryu!" Misty exclaims,
"Bulba, it's time!" Both Pokémon look at each other.
"Staryu, Tackle!" Bulba jumps out of the way. "Bulba, use Vine Whip!" It was a hit, and Staryu fainted. "Whoa!" Misty exclaims. "Bulba and I aren't taking chances. Bulba, return, go Clefairy!"
Misty sets a serious face and looks at Leaf. She sets her arms into the air and twirls sending water everywhere. She shows her Pokeball, enlarging it, and yells "Go Starmie!" Her Pokémon comes out and shakes water of itself.
"Clefairy, use Sing!"
Misty's Pokémon hears a beautiful melody, and it falls to sleep.
"Starmie, no!"
"Bulba, I choose you!" Bulba comes right out.
"Bulba, use Leech Seed!" The seed flies to Starmie and vines surround it. It was still asleep. Leaf returns Clefairy.
"Bulba, Vine Whip!" Bulba hits it, and of course was super effective.
"No!" Misty exclaims. Starmie was still asleep. The white light flies to Bulba.
"Let's finish this, Bulba, use Vine Whip!" The vines fly to Starmie, and hit it, ending Starmie.
Misty's Pokémon flies up into the air and comes crushing down, fainted.
Misty stares in disbelief. She then smiles.
"You did good. Too good. I guess that I underestimated you Leaf. Nice strategy. As proof of my defeat, here's your badge!"
Misty walks up to Leaf and hands her a new badge. "That badge will make any Pokémon up to Level 30 obey you, and well even from those that you got in a trade. Here's your TM."
Misty hands over the TM.
"That contains Water Pulse. Use it well on Water Pokémon."
Leaf bows down. "Thank you Misty." Leaf hugs her. "You know, there's nothing wrong by the way you dress, you still make a lot of guys drool so....yeah. See ya around Misty!" She returns her Bulba and runs off the building.
"Defeated again sis?" Daisy said fixing her hair.
"This only leaves Satoshi. I'll be waiting for him. I'm ready for him!"
~~~~~~Satoshi Vs. Gym Leader Misty!
Satoshi was inside the Pokémon Center. He sighs.
"Man, I should really go find more Pokémon so I can beat Blue."
His Pikachu jumps on the table with his ketchup. It starts to eat it.
"Why do you eat so much Ketchup Pikachu? Do you do that on purpose to look cute?"
His Pikachu happily jumps up and down. "I guess so," Satoshi says.
He looks around. Leaf enters the Pokémon Center spinning around.
"I got Misty's badge!"
Suddenly a bunch of trainers surround her.
"Whoa, she did!"
"Was she hard to beat?"
"Hey girl, you're hot, you wanna go out?"
Leaf just posed in different ways, showing off her badge.
"Well you see, only the strongest trainers can beat Misty. I defeated her on my second try, which means that anyone can beat her if you have the determination to do it."
The doors open and a big crowd of girls come in. Blue walks in right after them.
"Gary, Gary he's the man, he beat Misty before you can! Yay!" The girls surround him and start to hug him.
"Girls please, I'm just here to heal my Pokémon!" Blue exclaims, but you can tell that he was enjoying this.
Satoshi walks up to Leaf who was staring at all the girls.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't Leaf and Ashy-Boy! What are you two still doing here? I've caught twenty Pokémon already!"
"TWENTY POKEMON?!?" Satoshi and Leaf yell.
"Of course, look, I even got my own fan base! These girls are going to be following me until I reach Vermillion! Well, I have to heal my Pokémon."
Blue pushes through Satoshi. The girls start cheerleading. Leaf walks up to Blue.
"So Blue, I guess that we can both leave Cerulean, I got a badge!" Leaf says flashing her new badge.
Blue looks at it. "You did it, congrats. Nurse Joy, can you heal my team? Thanks."
Leaf gets closer to Blue.
"Hey, you're too close!" Blue shouts with a blush.
"Blue, I thought you liked being close by girls," Leaf says.
"Not by you!" Leaf blushes. "Why?"
"You put me nervous!"
The girls scream. "Get away from out Blue!"
"Eh?!"
The girls scream and carry Leaf. Satoshi stares as they throw her off the Pokémon Center.
Leaf gets up. "Why you little!" Leaf says trying to get back in.
The girls slam the door on Leaf's face. Leaf twitches and slides down moaning in pain.
"Leaf, what are you doing in the floor- EH?!" Red exclaims.
His nose explodes and he falls to the ground. Yellow looks at the floor. She blushes.
"Leaf, your dress isn't covering you!"
Leaf suddenly gets up. She was blushing uncontrollably.
"Great, I am so done with this city!" Leaf grabs her backpack and runs elsewhere.
Satoshi exits the door. "Hey Yellow. What's wrong with Red?"
"He's being a boy that's what."
The doors open and Blue comes out. "Well if it isn't my dearest rival, Red!" Blue says.
Red gets up immediately. "Blue!"
"That's my name! Well I have to keep going, I don't want anyone to beat me. Smell ya later!" Blue walks away while his fangirls run after him.
Red stares at all the girls following him. "How does he get so many girls following him?"
"He's famous Red. He's the son of one of the most smartest people in all of Kanto."
The three of them stare.
"Well, I'm off to Route 5. You wanna come Yellow?" Red asks. She blushes and nods. They walk away leaving Satoshi alone.
He sees a commotion in a store. He walks over there, his Pikachu on his shoulder. He makes it in front of the crowd.
"I wonder what happened here," Satoshi asks as he notices the police surrounding the entrance and blocking people who want to enter.
"Some burglars broke into this store last night! What do you know about burglars?" It was Officer Jenny.
"It wasn't me Officer Jenny!" Satoshi cries out.
"Well, no matter, what stolen was stolen! Whoever stole that hose and vacuum will surely be in trouble. Now move along! Nothing to see here!" She breaks the crowd.
Satoshi walks away. "Maybe I should go fight Misty. Then I could get out of Cerulean City."
Satoshi takes out a map from his backpack. He then begins to walk around. "I've seen Misty's Gym somewhere around here. Is this it?"
He walks in. He sees a lot of people sitting down and seeing what appeared to be a show. He notices that three girls were making a show.
"Oh well, I thought this was the gym. I guess that we'll just see the show."
He stays the whole show and when the show ended, they went to go find the girls. His investigation eventually lead him to an aquarium that lead underground. He finds them.
"Excuse me, is this the Pokémon Gym?" Satoshi asks.
"This is the Entertaining Gym. Misty's Gym is just in the back."
"Oh thanks, I was looking forward to get there," Satoshi says.
"Wait, aren't you that kid that she was traveling with that she mentioned? Ash?" Satoshi gets mad.
"Misty should know that my name is Satoshi not Ash!" he says.
"Oh calm down Ash."
It was Misty wearing her clothes that she was using to travel with.
"Misty! What are you doing here!" Satoshi questions.
"Where, these are my sisters. Together, we're the Sensational Sisters!" Misty exclaims.
"There are only three Sensation Sisters, and only one runt!" a sister said.
Misty growls.
"So what happened? You said that you were setting off to become the best Water Trainer there is out there? Weren't you not coming back until you completed that dream of yours?" Daisy says.
"I guess that I did say something like that didn't I?" Misty says.
"Misty, you can't be leaving us like that!"
"Yeah like, I totally had to suffer so much because like all the trainers were like strong!"
Misty looks down. "You said you could handle it! This means a lot to me!" Misty says.
"Oh Misty, the only reason why you left was like you knew that you could never be as beautiful and talented as us!"
Misty looks mad now. "I came back because he wanted to fight me!" Misty says.
"Well he's totally someone I'll not choose for a boyfriend, but you're no price yourself!" Daisy says making fun of her.
"MY BOYFRIEND?! MY BOYFRIEND?!?!" Misty yells.
"Misty there's no reason to come back here then if Satoshi wanted to come, he could've battled us you know."
"He destroyed my bike and I won't stop until I get a new one!"
Satoshi was on the floor twitching. Misty? As his girlfriend? What kind of sick thought would anyone even think – Misty is too….loud.
"Wow Misty what a good reason!" The sisters laugh.
"That's it! Satoshi, you're battling me! Right here, right now!" Misty shouts.
Satoshi gives a nervous smile.
They both go to opposite ends of the swimming pool and Misty's sisters set some floaters around the pool to have some Pokémon stand on it.
"Two versus two will do!" Misty shouts.
"Fine, go Pikachu!" Satoshi exclaims.
Pikachu shakes its head.
"Pikachu? You don't want to battle Misty?"
Chu….
"Pikachu, you're a Pokepal!" Misty yells.
This lighten ups Pikachu.
"Thanks a lot Pikachu. Go, Butterfree!"
His Pokémon comes out with glee.
"Go Staryu!" Misty shouts.
Staryu comes out. Satoshi takes out his Pokedex.
He gets information and orders his Pokémon to attack.
Butterfree zooms down and hits it.
"Butterfree, use Tackle!"
Staryu spins and takes of spinning in high speeds. It misses and lands on a floater.
"Butterfree, Tackle!" It tackles it again, and again. Staryu wasn't looking to good.
"Water Pulse!" Misty exclaims. The attack misses.
"Again!" Misty says. It was a hit, and Butterfree stutters for a bit but kept flying.
"Stun Spore, now!" Satoshi yells. Butterfree does its move and Staryu twitches in pain.
"No! Staryu, jump in the water and Tackle!" Staryu jumps in the water. Butterfree looks around and suddenly Staryu flies off into the air and strikes Butterfree.
"Finish it with Water Pulse!" Misty exclaims.
Staryu sends the water that ripples and hits Butterfree. Satoshi's Pokémon faints in midair. "Return Butterfree!"
"I guess that I'll win! Go Starmie!" Misty says.
"Pidgeotto, I chose you!" Satoshi says.
The Pokémon stare at each other.
"Whirlwind!" Pidgeotto almost blew Starmie away.
"Dive, and Tackle!" Starmie dives under water and comes out and tackles Pidgeotto.
"Wing Attack!" Satoshi exclaims. Using its wing, Pidgeotto slams it to the water. Starmie comes right out of the water and tackles it again.
"Gust!"
Pidgeotto blows Starmie to the wall. It started to blink red.
"Oh no! Starmie's energy is about to run out! I forgot my potions…"
"Alright Pidgeotto, let's get that badge!"
Suddenly, there was a loud rumbling sound. The gym starts to shake. A wall breaks and debris goes everywhere. Satoshi falls in the water with Pikachu. Misty falls in as well. They surface.
"Check out that hair!"
"Like who invited the party crashers?"
"Sorry to break on you ladies!"
"Allow us to introduce ourselves!"
"To protect the world from devastation!"
"To unite all peoples within our nation!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To extend our reach to the stars above!"
"Jessie!"
"James!"
"Team Rocket blast off into the speed of light!"
"Surrender now, or prepare to fight!"
"Meowth that's right! The water Pokémon have the advantage, but what'll happen if we steal the water away? The Pokémon will be ours for the taking! Trust me, and Meowth knows just how to do it!"
Meowth jumps up and lands next to a lever and pulls it. Suddenly a giant hose comes out of the machine that they had come in with. It goes into the water and starts sucking in water.
"A hose and vacuum! They stole that from the store!" Satoshi exclaims.
"Gives us back our water!" Daisy shouts.
"Go find Officer Jenny!" Misty calls out to Satoshi.
"You want your water, let me give it back!" Meowth says with an evil grin.
He pulls the lever down and the water ejects, hitting the sisters. Misty and Satoshi try to swim to their aid.
"We need to protect the Pokémon!"
"What about my hair?!"
"Forget about your damn hair Daisy!"
Meowth smiles. "Time to suck 'em back up!"
The hose began to suck in the water. Misty screams as she is suddenly started to get sucked in. Pikachu and Staryu begin to get sucked in too. Staryu disappears into the hose. Misty screams as she is then sucked in.
"Let us go, we'll drown!" Satoshi screams as he was being sucked in too.
"Oh well," Meowth laughs.
"Pikachu, this is going to hurt, use ThunderShock on the water!"
Pikaaaaachuuuu!
The whole arena was surrounded by yellow light. Everyone screams in pain.
The machine suddenly explodes. The Rocket Trio are launched into the air. They break through the roof.
"Looks like Team Rocket is blasting off again!!"
The gym became quiet. Satoshi swims up to Misty who had her face underwater.
"Misty! Misty!" he cries.
He lifts her head off the water.
"What happened?"
"The vacuum exploded. Team Rocket escaped, but I doubt they'll survive a fall like that," Satoshi said.
Misty and Satoshi swim up to the edge of the pool.
The Sensational Sisters were there. They helped them up.
Pikachu jumps on Satoshi. They hear sirens coming from the outside.
"We didn't finish our battle!" Misty remembers.
"Whatever Misty, you lost. If Pikachu would've fought, you would've lost!" Misty looks at the floor.
"I could've still won!" Misty shouts.
"Whatever. Here, Satoshi, the Cascade Badge. You deserve it," Daisy says.
"Gee, thanks. Haha, I got the Cascade Badge!" Satoshi exclaims.
Pi-Pikachu!
Misty exclaims.
Satoshi smiles. "I was going to win anyway Misty!" Satoshi mocks.
Misty's face turns red of anger.
"What happened in here?" It was Officer Jenny.
Satoshi and everyone else walk up to Officer Jenny to explain what happened.
Meanwhile a Pokémon was looking at them. It was drooling. It was so hungry. It wanted blood. It runs off elsewhere.
~~~~~~Red and Yellow
They started walking back to the Pokémon Center.
"I forgot about that tree that was there. It's a long way back to the Pokémon Center."
Yellow nods at Red's words.
"Red, remember when we were small and you saved me from that rampaging Dratini?" Yellow asked blushing.
"Yeah. Why?"
"I never got to thank you properly…"
Red smiles at her.
"You don't owe me anything Yellow."
They walk pass the closed off house. They hear someone crying.
"Isn't this the house where Team Rocket assaulted the other day?" Yellow questions.
Red ignores Yellow and walks up to the house. Yellow follows.
The crying gets louder and louder. Red goes under the yellow tape.
"Red, we can't go in there!" Jaune exclaims.
"Stay there Yellow, I'm just going to see who's crying!"
Yellow looks uneasy.
Red opens the door and sees a woman and a man. The woman was crying.
"Look at what Team Rocket did here! All of this just for a stupid TM?" the man says.
"Team Rocket wanted to Dig themselves to no good!" the woman cries.
Red looks around. The house was pretty trashed.
"Are you trying to get to Route 5?" the man suddenly asks to Red.
He nods in response.
"My backyard leads to Route 5. That stupid tree won't let anyone get out of the city. Go ahead young trainer."
Red nods his head again. "I'm sorry about this. Team Rocket will pay for this," Red states.
"Yeah, but my son is still dead so it doesn't matter if they suffer or not. The damage is already done. All for a TM. A TM!" the man shouts.
Red looks away. Yellow enters the door.
"Jaune, come on. Let's leave them alone," Red said to her.
Yellow nods and walks up to Red. They exit the door and go through the back door.
"Red, why are we going through their house, it's disrespectful!" Yellow cries out.
"I know, but this is the only other way to get to Route 5. That stupid tree is in the way, so we're trapped here unless we go through here."
They walk out of the house and take a few steps. They notice a man standing there.
"You know, being in Team Rocket has its advantages."
The Rocket Grunt turns around.
He sees Red and Yellow. "You related to the people in there?" he asks.
"No, we're not," Red said. Yellow hides behind Red.
"They call me Proton. I'm from Team Rocket." He takes out a knife. "This isn't your yard, you should stay out."
"This isn't your yard either," Red says coldly, grabbing Yellow.
"I guess you wouldn't believe me if I said that I'm an innocent bystander now, would you?" Proton raises a Pokeball.
"Go Pika!" Red exclaims throwing his Pokeball.
"If I win, I'll slaughter your Pikachu! Go Machop!" His Pokemon comes out.
Pika's cheeks spark.
"Pika, use ThunderShock!" Red yells. Pika winces and lets out a cry and electricity flies out to Machop. It was a good hit. The Machop was still able to fight.
"Use Karate Chop! Cut it up to pieces!" Proton exclaims.
Machop jumps in the air and karate chops Pika on its head. Pika cries in pain and holds its head.
"Pika, use ThunderShock!" It uses its move, and Machop was down and out!
"Well, I guess I'll cut you later, go Drowzee!" The Pokémon comes out.
Red has never seen that Pokémon before.
"Pika, ThunderShock!" Red shouts.
Pika jumps in the air and does its move. It was a good hit, and Drowzee still held on.
"Now, Drowzee, use Disable!" There was a black flash and Pika falls to the ground.
"Pika, use ThunderShock!" Red exclaims. Pika tried to use that move, but it couldn't.
"Idiot trainer, Disable won't let use that move again!"
Red takes a few steps back. "Pika, Quick Attack!" Red says.
Pika runs in super high speeds and tackles Drowzee down to the floor. It was a critical hit. Enemy Drowzee fainted!
"Fine, stop. I give up, I'll leave quietly," Proton says.
He returns his Pokémon.
"If you think you can leave without getting justice, you're wrong!" Red shouts.
Proton flashes the knife. "You know how I killed that little runt? I stabbed him repeatedly and carved an 'R' on his stomach. Maybe I should do it to you little boy. As for the girl, I would have some fun with her first!"
Red and Yellow back up into the wall.
"Stop right there!" It was Officer Jenny. She had her gun drawn.
"Not today Jenny, maybe next time!" Proton says.
He throws something to the ground and smoke comes out of the ground.
"After him!" Jenny exclaims. The police and Jenny run after the Rocket Grunt.
"Are you ok boy?" the man from the house said.
"We're ok thanks." The man walks up to the smoke. He picks up a TM.
"Dig," he says. He walks up to Red.
"I want you to have this. It's the TM that bastard stole. Take it," the man says.
Red received the TM from the man!
"I wanted to thank you for beating that grunt. He will be brought to justice one day. Until then you and your girlfriend take care, there's a lot of Team Rocket members this time around." The man walks inside the house.
"Girlfriend?" Yellow questions with a blush.
"Come on Yellow, you're staying close to me tonight. I don't trust you sleeping alone tonight."
Yellow blushes uncontrollably. Red grabs her arm and the walk off to Route 5.
Red was thinking about Team Rocket. How can his father ever join such a terrible group? Murders, psychopaths, and robbers. It doesn't make sense.
~~~~~~Leaf
The sun was setting. She was at the beach walking by herself.
"I can't believe that I've made it this far. I guess I'm actually a good trainer after all? I've been set to follow this one path. Like, I don't even know what my future holds for me."
She turns to see the group of girls lift Blue up while they groped every inch of him.
Leaf sighs and continues to walk.
"The future doesn't seem bright...."
She stares into the sea. She watches it and suddenly, something comes out of it. It was a small, blue Pokémon that Leaf had never seen before.
It cheerfully waves at Leaf. This makes her smile. The Pokémon dives back into the water.
"Well, the future isn't that bright, but there's still light in there."
Leaf walks away without her realizing that the Pokémon she saw was a Legendary Pokémon.
She looks up and sees the lighthouse. "I wonder what Bill might be up to?"
~~~~~~Sid and Kenny
They sat on the bench that was closest to the end of the Cerulean Cape.
"I'm surprised that I could stay close to the edge of the cliff. Imagine me falling off it."
Sid laughs. Kenny stares. "What's so entertaining?"
"If you fall I'm gonna have to go after ya!"
Kenny blushes and turns. "I have some knowledge of swimming...."
Sid laughs. "Oh Kenny, there's nothing smart about swimming! You just dive in it you know? Feeling the water."
Kenny stares.
Sid laughs. I'll teach ya how to swim if you want."
Kenny blushes. "I suppose..."
Sid smiles and looks at the sea. "Ken, I'm glad that we're still friends."
Kenny blushes even further. "Me too."
Sid looks at his PokeNav. "It's programed to see Kanto instead of Hoenn," Sid explains.
Kenny nods. "I'm a big fan of such technologies. It all seems fascinating to me."
Sid gets up. "You know what? Let's go!"
"Huh?" Sid helps Kenny up.
"Let's get the hell outta here!" Sid says looking at Kenny with a wide smile.
Kenny was confused. "What do you mean?"
"I mean, let's get outta here. You and I. Let's go to Route 5 and make sure that we keep thinking forward. Right partner?" Sid says.
Kenny stares. He smiles. "Sure Sid. Let us go to Vermillion City!"
Sid runs off. Kenny follows.
Kenny felt this warm sensation in his chest. Something was speaking to him. His crush for Sid was turning into something more. Something more....loving.
~~~~~~Satoshi's Group
He gathered all his things. "Ready to go?" Brock asked.
"I'm ready to go! Right Pikachu?"
Pika!
"Great! Hey, where's Misty? She's still in the Gym?" Satoshi nods.
"I think so. I don't know if she's coming with us anymore," he says.
"How come?" Brock questions.
"I guess it's her responsibility as a Gym Leader to stay. Although she was annoying because she kept wanting her bike paid up, Misty was pretty good to have around."
Brock pats on his back. "I'm sure you understand why she has to stay then right?"
Satoshi nods.
"Let's go say goodbye."
They knock on the Entertaining Gym. Misty comes right out.
"Oh hey you guys." Misty notices Satoshi's face. "What's going on?"
"We came to say goodbye Misty. We're going to Vermillion City now."
Misty smiles. "Ok, I'll go too!" Satoshi looks up.
"I already asked my sisters and they're going to keep my gym opened. I can still travel."
Satoshi's face brightens up. "That's grea- I mean ok, hurry up Misty, you take so long, I gotta get another badge!" Satoshi says and walks away.
"What?! You don't hurry me up, and you better pay me up for my broken bike Satoshi Ash Ketchum!" Misty exclaims.
"Oh no, not this again...." Brock says.
Pikachu laughs.
Together the three of them walked off into the sunset.
Daisy smiles. "Misty, you're following your heart."
~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto
It was quiet. "No one's coming at all!" said a Rocket Grunt.
Viper slaps him. "You idiot, this takes days. They could attack any second."
They all readied their guns. They listen. Not a single noise.
"Face it, they didn't come this year!" Tyson tells Viper.
"It doesn't make sense, every time they attack."
"Well not this time. They must've forgotten or something."
Viper didn't like this. They must be planning something. They have to be.
The two teams sat down on the table. Heath sets the money down. Nascour smiles.
"I am pleased. Greevil will surely love to team up."
Heath bows. "So when can we strike? You know when?" Heath asks.
"Just leave all the calculations to us. It will happen, I just don't know when however. It has returned to its Sky Pillar. I just want your team to infiltrate that place. We will go searching for the Beast of the Sea."
Heath smiles. "It was nice making business with you Nascour."
"We are only pawns of Blake Hall's and Greevil's plan. If they succeed, speak with me privately."
Heath nods and walks out. Nascour turns to the Pokémon Ranger.
He grabs out a knife and impales it to his neck.
"Unfortunately, I hate Pokémon Rangers myself."
He takes it out and lets the Pokémon Ranger to choke on his own blood.
~~~~~~Somewhere in Unova
The High Counselor was sitting on the throne. He stood and watched as all the bosses were on their knees.
"We gather here today, to because I'm not happy."
All the team leaders exchange looks.
"Rocket, stand." The Team Rocket Leader stands.
"You're my favorite of them all. You are the only successful one in between all of them. You bring me all the money that is needed, therefore, I will now lower the percentage you will give us. You will now give the Plasma Syndicate ten percent of your earnings." The Boss smiles.
"Magma, Aqua, stand up." The two rival leaders stood.
"You two make me feel like I should die. You're pathetic goals are not reaching anywhere near to perfection. Where the hell is my destruction event?"
The two bosses look at each other. "Well, we've been having difficulties..." The Aqua Boss says.
"So I've heard. Your missions have failed because of children. Children!"
The Magma and Aqua bosses look at the floor.
"I think I have to remind you of what this whole Syndicate is."
The High Counselor gets of the chair. He walks up to the Rocket Boss.
"The Rocket Gang: Collect money and valuable artifacts to satisfy the Syndicate. They must collect as much as they can before the Syndicate was to take over."
He walks up to Team Magma and Team Aqua. "Originally planned to take over by sea, Team Aqua was to find the Ancient Pokémon and bring it back and cause fear to the planet, threatening whatever region that failed to comply to the Syndicate's rules. Then Magma came along, and we then realized that having the other Ancient Pokémon would gain us access to more land. However, since both gangs have been successful, it is now a race to see who will awaken the Ancient Pokémon first. Yet, you do not even know where they are, and are being stopped by pathetic children!"
The High Counselor walks up to Team Cipher leader. "Ah, Greevil. With the technology that we have supported and achieved, Team Cipher is supposed to take control of Legendary Pokémon and turn them in to the Syndicate. Not much progress. I expect more from you."
He walks up to Team Dim Sun. "Finally, we have you, Blake Hall. Your objective is to get rid of the Pokémon Rangers who know of our dilemma, and you are doing well."
He walks to the chair. "Team Rocket is my best Team. As for Team Magma and Aqua, you are disgraceful. The rest continue on your own premises."
They all bow down to the High Counselor. They all exit the door.
A man walks up to the High Counselor. "Cyrus. I need your services. You've studied space and time for a long time. I need you to look into this old legend that we have taken into our liking."
Cyrus smiles. "I know of which you speak. What do you need me to do?"
The High Counselor smiles. "I need you to find a way to awaken them. If the legend is true, after we take over the world, we'll take over the whole universe!"
Cyrus nods his head. He walks away.
"Cyrus."
"Yes, High Counselor?"
"Do me a favor, and don't disappoint the Plasma Syndicate. Or it will be death of you."
Cyrus nods and walks off.
