Hissy Fit: Indigo League

Chapter 1: That Fateful Day Part 1

Viridian City, Pokemon Center

After a trainer by the name of named Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town had gained his 8th and final badge at the Viridian City Gym (and beating Team Rocket... again) Ash, along with his friends, Pikachu, Misty, Togepi, and Brock decided to stay the night at the pokemon center, and spend the rest of the next day relaxing before continuing towards Pallet Town the following day.

The following morning in the centers lobby we find our heroes discussing their plans for the day.

"I can't believe I finally got my 8th badge," Ash exclaimed. "I finally can compete in the Pokemon League. Are you with me, Pikachu?"

"Pika, pikachu!" The little yellow electric mouse exclaimed giving his trainer a 'V' sign for victory.

"That's great Ash, so now our next stop is your hometown right?" Asked Misty.

"Yeah that's right." Ash answered still smiling at his recent victory.

"Well since we're leaving tomorrow I suggest we use the rest of the today to get some personal stuff done," Brock stated. "I'm going to the pokemart to stock up on our supplies. We're running pretty low on pokemon/people medicine, food supplies and other essentials we will need."

"I'll go with you Brock, there are a few things that I need for a relaxing hot bath later tonight." Misty said as she started to get up. "Right Togepi?"

"Toge, toge, ppprrriiiieeee." Chirped the little egg shaped pokemon.

"Okay guys, Pikachu and I are going to have a look around the city and see the sights, while the rest of our pokemon are being taken care of by Nurse Joy." Ash said. "Let's go buddy."

"Pika, Pikapi!" Pikachu said while jumping onto Ash's shoulder.

Viridian City, Outside

The group spit up after walking out of the doors to do what they stated would do. While ash and Pikachu walked a couple of blocks near the forest on Route 1, a mechanical hand shot form the sky and grabbed Pikachu from Ash's shoulder, causing the trainer to turn around fast to exclaim in surprise, "Pikachu!?"

"Pikapi!" pikachu replied in a shocked tone being pulled upwards and thrown in a cage.

"What's going on here?" Ash shouts, only to be answered by a trio of laughs that the boy was all to familiar with. Like the all too familiar green, basket attached to the all too familiar meowth shaped balloon, which carried all too familiar pair of people with their white and black outfits and a big R on the front, and their all to familiar human-talking pokemon, that happens to be a meowth.

(yeah I know all too familiar... cue music)

"Hahahahahahahaha...," the familiar pairs laugh.

"Prepare for trouble, that's coming to you," says the woman with long red hair.

"And make it double, now that we've caught Pikachu," stated the blue haired man.

"To protect the world from devastation."

"To unite all peoples within our nations."

"To denounce the evils of truth and love."

"To extend our reaches to the stars above."

"Jessie."

"James."

"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light."

"Surrender now or prepare to fight."

"Meowth that's right." Meowth finishes the motto.

(End music)

"Team Rocket give back Pikachu." Ash demands.

"No!" Jessie yells back. "You made us blast off after we were promoted to gym leaders, destroyed the gym, and made us look like fools. So we'll make you pay."

"And we'll start by taking Pikachu, I say." James said smirking.

"So have a nice day, hey." Meowth finished pressing the controls to get them out of there.

"Pikachu quick, use Thunderbolt!" shouts Ash.

Pikachu nodded, "Pika, Pikaaaaa...CHUUUUU..." Pikachu unleashed its electric attack on the cage, but nothing happened, not even a scorch mark. "Pika?!"

"What?!" Ash looking now surprised.

"Hahahahaha, haven't ya figured it out by now twerp, we're anti-electric proof," Meowth sneered. "That cage will absorb any and all electric attacks. Bye-ya."

Meowth steers the balloon towards the forest to try and lose the twerp.

"Hey get back here." Ash shouts while running after Team Rocket into the forest, "Give me back my Pikachu...PIKACHU!"

As Ash and Pikachu make their way back to the pokemon center, the two couldn't help but smile at the half dozing ekans, that had saved Pikachu from Team Rocket, draped around Ash's shoulders as Ash gently carried it, making sure no sudden movements would startle the snake pokemon.

As they continued onward, Ash couldn't help but notice how small the heavily, scared ekans was compared to the other ekans he encountered on his year long journey, and how instead of vibrant purple and yellow scales the species are known to have, this one scales were a light-pale purple and pale color. However despite those things, what stood out the most to Ash was the pale-white, scar on the ekans forehead that was shaped like a lighting bolt right just above the line that connects each slitted eye and curves toward its nose, and the eyes of the poison-type. Normally an ekans eyes are yellow, like its underbelly, stripe, and rattle are, but this ekans eyes were green. A very nice shade of green. Like an emerald colored green.

And when he looked into those green slitted eyes, he new in his heart he had made a new friend. Before Ash knew it he and the two Pokemon had made it back to the Pokemon Center.

"Well ekans here we are the Pokemon Center." Said Ash.

Harry looked at the building with a little bit of nervousness, 'Even after being in this world for a year, I'm still not to comfortable around medical places, be it for humans or pokemon.' he thought as Ash made his way into the building.

Once inside Harry felt the coolness of the air unit hit his body, it made freeze up a bit. Having not felt a buildings air condition in a long time was a surprise to the 20 years old wizard-turned-ekans that it made his rattle shake.

Ash noticing the sudden stiffness of the green-eyed snake on his shoulders, and the shaking of its' rattle tail, thought the wild ekans was nervous to be inside the building was quick to try to reassure it that everything was fine, "It's aright Ekans, everythings fine," he said while rubbing his hands on part of Harry's body, "there's nothing to be afraid of here."

"He's right relax. No wild pokemon is gonna come out in here to get ya." Pikachu said gently in his soft tenor voice, reaching from where he was on Ash's head and patting Harry's head gently.

Harry calmed himself down after Ash and Pikachu reassured him there was no danger here. Once done he nodded his thanks to them receiving a pair of smiles in return.

"Nurse Joy, could you please take a look at my pikachu and this ekans?" Asked Ash as he placed Harry onto the counter and Pikachu hopped off his head to land beside Harry.

"Oh my goodness what happened to them," Nurse Joy cried out, "Chansey I need a wheel-bed stat."

"Chansey, chans," Chansey, the large pink egg-shaped saluted and ran to the hall leading to the emergency room, came back no more than 3 seconds later. Gestured for the two pokemon to get on. Once Pikachu and Harry where settled on the cot Chansey and Nurse Joy wheeled them into the back to begin working on the two, leaving Ash in the lobby to wait.

"Hey Ash we're back." Brock said coming into the center with bags in his hands and Misty beside him carrying Togepi in arm an a light plastic bag in the other. "Huh, what's wrong? And where's Pikachu?"

Ash turns towards them, "you guys have I got a lot to tell you..."
