Episode 274 Gotta Catch You Later
(Part 1)
With the Johto League Super Conference behind them Ash and friends decide to stop in Veridian City before making the long journey to Pallet Town.
"You can see the city from here," Ash stated as he looked at the city below, but he was looking at a certain redhead from the corner of his eye.
"Pika," Ash's Pikachu replies with a firm nod.
"And there's the Pokemon Center," Misty said.
Then Brock yelled in an enthusiastic voice, "Well come on then! What are we waiting for? Oh, Oh Nurse Joy, here I come."
Misty looked disappointed in Brock, and mumbled, "hmm, gotta admit, he is consistent."
Pokemon Theme song:
Pokemon! No time to question my move
I stick to the path that I choose
Me and my friends are gonna do it right
You'll never see us runaway from a fight!
To be a Master is my dream
All I got to do is believe
I believe
I got a chance to win
I'm on my way to victory
I can be a champion if I just believe
I'm on a Master Quest
I want the whole world to see
Gonna be the very best
'Cause all I've got to do is believe in me
Pokemon!
Gotta Catch Ya Later
(Revised)
"Nurse Joy could you look after these Pokeballs for me," Ash Ketchum asked the nice pink haired lady.
"Sure," she replied. "I'll take good care of them."
"Let me introduce myself!" Brock hollered not being able to refrain himself from talking to the magnificent beauty. "The names Brock," he said, a sparkle in his smile, pointing his thumb at himself. "Do you believe in love at first site? Or shall I walk past you again?" He exclaimed, while spinning around. "Smell my fresh breath Nurse Joy. It's a sweet as you are."
The nurse cleverly replied with, "You might want a mint."
Brock slid down to the ground anime style, looking sad because of her rejection.
"Nurse Joy, my name is Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town. Do you remember me?"
"Pika!" Pikachu held up his tiny fist up waving.
"Oh, I'm sorry Ash, but this is my first week working at this Pokemon Center, but I did here about you from the Joy who was here before me. You must be Misty."
"Yes," Misty said, surprised that the nurse new he name.
"I have a message here for you from Ceruleum City. Your sisters want you to call them here right away."
"Call my sisters? I wonder why."
The whole time they were talking Brock was sitting down my the counter, crossed legged, bawling his eyes out. He had his too pointer fingers touching the tip of each other and his he was looking downward.
"Where have you been Misty? I've been trying to reach you. I was afraid that it be to late," her sister Daisey told her.
"Is everything okay?" Misty asked.
"Ta duh!" Daisey exclaimed holding holding tickets in her hands. "Tickets for going around the world! I came in third in a Beauty competition!" Daisey bragged doing a happy dance. "And I'm able to bring two others!"
Misty's eyes widened. "Huh?"
"We, uh, kind of figured you wouldn't be that interested in coming along anyway, so you can cover for us at Ceruleum Gym while we're seeing the world!"
"Wait hold on a minute."
We'll be back-"
"I'm not going!" Misty screamed at her over happy sisters.
"Misty you have to go!" Daisey snapped.
"That's were you're wrong Daisey. I don't have to do anything. You can find some other sucker to come with you!"
"But Misty-"
"NO! Can't you see that I'm finally happy! Do you know how long it's been? I'm not going to just let you ruin my life like when I was 7! So goodbye!"
Mist said before hanging up the pokephone.
"They deserve a trip around the world," Brock side commented.
"There lucky."
"Well I'm not. Why should I be the one who has to work at the gym. I'm not going to!"
"But Misty it's only while they're gone," Ash stated trying to convince his friend that it wasn't so bad.
"You don't know that Ash! You don't know my sisters. They tell you things and then don't fallow what they said!"
"Isn't this yours Misty?"
Oh, no the one thing that Misty didn't want to deal with. If she had her bike, then she didn't have a reason to follow ash anymore. And if there was one thing Misty did want to do right now it was that.
"My Bike," Misty said, shocked standing up and walking towards it, hoping it would disappear.
"Oh, yeah," Ash mumbled.
"It was pretty bad, but the last Nurse Joy managed to fix it."
"That's was when I first met ash," Misty mumbled to herself and received flashbacks.
"Hey what are you doing?" a younger version of Misty asked a boy who was currently stealing her bike after being fished out of the sea.
The boy replied with, "I'm borrowing this!"
"My bike!" she yelled after the drove away.
Then later that day.
Misty was holding what was left of her bike.
"Whoa, what happened to your bike?" Ash yelled surprised.
"You happened to my bike!"
"Wow, Nurse Joy did a great job on fixing it. That's great! Now you'll get home fast."
"I'm not going home!" Misty screamed.
"Why are you so grouchy?" asked a clearly confused Ash.
"I'm not grouchy!" she answered. "Why don't you just leave me a lone!"
She ran out of the pokemon Center fast. She needed some time to think.
"Ah, Misty?" Ash asked but didn't get a reply. "That was weird. What's wrong?"
"I get the feeling that maybe she wanted to keep on traveling with us."
"Oh... really?"
"I can't believe that Ash would talk to me like that after all we've been through. Like it means nothing to him," Misty mumbled to herself so low that no one could here her.
"Toki" her Togepi replied, sad that her mother was sad.
"The worst part. He doesn't even acted like me leaving is a big deal. Well I'm not going. I want to stay with Ash... and Brock."
"What have we here? Someone crying?" A scrawny short boy with red hair asked from the streets. When he said it Misty knew he was making fun of her by the tone he used.
"Huh?" she asked herself quietly.
"You better stop those tears or I'll have to learn how to swim," a much taller and skinnier boy with blue hair said.
"Oh, yeah? Who says I'm crying," Misty snapped.
"Are you lonely?" the chubbiest of the three-sum asked.
"Yeah, while your friends abandon ya," the red hair dude mocked.
Misty hissed. "Well who are you anyway?"
She got into a fighting stance.
The red haired boy said. "I'm Veridean City's Number 1 Pokemon Trainer, Kim."
"I'm number 2, Kam," stated the tallest one.
And I'm number 3, Kah." The chubby one told her.
"The invisible Pokemon Brothers," they said together, "Ha!"
"Oh really? You're invisible?" Misty sneered. "Than disappear."
"No, we said Invincible," Kim explained.
"Fine, then let's battle right now," Misty challenged.
The boys hmpth-ed there agreement.
"We'll fight one on one!" Kim the leader of the group, said.
"That's fine with me!" Misty said. "Politoed go."
"Go Hitmonchan!" Kim called out, throwing the ball.
"Polytoed use water gun!"
It hit him strait in the middle. "Chan," Hitmonchan screamed out.
"Hitmonchan!" Kim hollered, now scared.
"Maybe you should think about changing your name," Misty informed.
"Oh yeah?" he asked. "Try this on for size!"
"Pokeball go," the other two boys called out, throwing the balls.
A Hitmonly and Hitmonchop called out.
"You cheat! How am I supposed to battle you one on three?"
"Misty," someone called from behind her, she eminently recognized the voice. "Pikachu and I will make it two on three," Ash told her.
"And I'll make it three on three," Brock confirmed. "It's all fair now, Misty."
"Umm, thanks. That's nice."
"Well, Well, you do have friends," Kim told her.
"The more the merrier," Kam said.
"So, it's a three on three battle now, huh? Go Pikachu. Thunderbolt!"
The yellow mouse Pokemon, did a thunderbolt on Hitmontop.
Brock then eminently ordered his Fortress to do a rapid spin on Hitmonlee.
Misty was thrilled and was happy laughing, until she realized that they were doing all the work.
"I could've managed without your help you know?"
"Yeah, we know," Ash informed.
"But you seemed pretty angry at us and we wanted to make it up to you," Brock told her with ease.
"Misty you go ahead and finish this one off. We'll just watch. You're a great water pokemon trainer. I know you can win this battle."
Pried swelled inside of Misty realizing just how good her friends are. Her best friends.
"Okay," she said with new confidence. "Politoed bubble attack!"
Her frog looking pokemon did as he was told and hit the Hitmonchan. Followed by Pikachu doing a thunderbolt on Hitmontop and Brock's Fortress doing another rapid spin n Hitmonlee. The three boys screamed.
"Well so much for the invincible part," a pink haired lady said from in the bushes. "They're a bunch of losers."
"imagine a team of three losers," the blue haired man replied.
"I know! Let's show them what a team of real losers are s'posed to act like!" There Meowth replied. "Proceed with plan Goalie."
Just then Jessie's Wobbuffet jump out of nowhere and yelled, "Wobbuffet!"
The pokemon had a boxed shaped thing in his hands and pressed a button on top.
Just then two goals for soccer came shooting out of the ground! The slid towards each other until they touched, trapping Ash, Misty, and Brock, along with the other three challengers.
The three villeins jumped out of the bushes and laughed evilly, turning the attention to them.
"Score for are team!" Meowth yelled.
"Team Rocket!" Ash yelled.
Brock said, "Not you guys again."
"We thought you might be up to a little game," Jessie told them.
"But already you've been beaten by two goals," James said in a way that he thought was clever. "Get it?" he asked his voice higher pitched than normal.
"Let us out of here Team Rocket!" Kim ordered.
"Yeah, come on, we're on your side!" Kam explained.
"You were supposed to be invisible!" Jessie spat.
"So these weird brothers are with Team Rocket?" Mist asked, not surprised.
"Why won't you let us out?" Kah said. "We did everything you were paying us to do."
The three boys started jumping and flailing there arms wildly screaming there protest.
Jessie said this with her arms crossed, nose stuck up high. "You should no that there are more important things than Money."
"Which means if we had any to give you we still wouldn't," James pointed out.
"Dat's right," Meowth agreed.
"Give us are Money!" the skinny boy ordered.
"We had a contract!" Kah complained.
Kim said something and then held out a pair of scissors.
"Ahh, they're cutt'n out!" Meowth screeched.
Soon after the three boys and there pokemon ran to the villains and started yelling at them.
When Jessie had finally had enough she yelled, "Ahh!" Clutching her head. "Go away!"
"You three should go away!" Ash told them, now out of the net, along with Misty and Brock. "At least the other three got us out of there."
"Okay, you guys ready?" Misty asked.
"Yeah," the two boys agreed.
The three trainers gave orders to there pokemon. It was a combination of Rapid Spin, Thunderbolt, and Water gun, creating a giant tornado.
"We're blasting off again," Team Rocket yelled as they flew into the sky.
"You were great Misty," Ash told his friend.
"Thanks I feel a lot better now."
"It was awesome watching you battle like that."
"Thank you, Ash. That's sweet."
Ash replied with, "Uhh.." meaning he had no clue on how to understand girls.
"And thanks fr always being a good friend to me."
"Yeah sure!"
"Misty, your bikes there. Are you staying or going."
"Let's just put it this way," Misty started. "ASH KETCHUM IF YOU DON'T DESTROY THAT BIKE RIGHT NOW YOU WILL DIE A SLOW AND PAINFUL DEATH!"
"I guess that means she staying," Brock informed.
"You guessed right. I'm not leaving just because my sisters told me to! They do not need to travel around the world. Hmp!"
Ash laughed.
"Well let's go."
Brock, Misty and Ash started walking down the streets and Misty told Togepi that this bike was the whole reason she met Ash and it was a coincidence. Ash denied that meeting Misty was a coincidence. When They were about to make a turn to Pallet, Brock yelled, "HOLD EVERYTHING!" startling the two young trainers. "I actually have to go back home right away."
"Huh?" Ash and Misty replied at the same time.
"I got an email saying that I had to go back and take care of some errands and stuff and I almost forgot."
Ash said, "How could you forget something like that?"
"Ahh! I'm not sure exactly," Brock admitted.
"Maybe 'cause you didn't wanna leave," Misty said.
"Probably."
"Hmm... I know Brock. I understand."
"Well this is my turn," Brock informed. "Are you sure you'll be okay without me, you two?"
"We'll be fine," Ash said.
"See ya, then," Brock said.
"Goodbye," Misty said to Brock.
"So long," Ash said.
Brock then dug something out of his backpack. It was two lunch box's with food in it for them to eat. He had to and gave one to each of them.
"Thanks," they mumbled.
"I guess you should go now!" Ash said nearly in tears.
"Okay take care," Brock said.
"I'll miss you," Misty said.
"Bye." Brock said before leaving.
Misty and Ash just stared as there friend left, before turning around at the same time and running in the opposite direction.
"Thank you. I'll miss you Brock!" Ash screamed while running.
"Ash slow down!" Misty screamed jumping on her bike.
AN: I know, horrible right? Sigh... No flames please, I already feel bad enough.
