This story DOES not follow the TV show in which Ash is eleven and Jessi seventeen. Everyone is sixteen and they all attend Pokemon Technical. The characters are the same as the Dream Team with occasional guest stars>
EPISODE 1, The Start of the Story
Jessi smiled her most sexy smile and crossed her legs, allowing her already too short skirt to ride up her leg. She noticed Misty's look of distaste out of the corner of her eye and smiled at her. Misty scoffed and turned away.
"What is it Miss Waterflower?" asked Miss Haruna, the Maths teacher.
"Nothing, Miss" Misty answered in embarrassed tones.
Jessi grinned at her and faced the front, pretending to listen to all the jargon that Miss Haruna was spouting. She tapped on the back of the guy in front of her to attract his attention. He turned and gave her an impatient look. Jessi drew in a breath sharply. He was gorgeous with lavender coloured hair and sea green eyes.
"What is it Jessi?" he hissed in his superior voice
"Can you understand a word of this?" she whispered in a husky voice
"It's quite easy, really" he bragged with a touch of annoyance creeping into his voice. He knew Jessi was building up to something.
"Do you think you could help me?" she asked childishly
"Sure, whatever" he answered, in a hurry to end the conversation
"It's a date then!" she smiled excitedly "See you at six then, at McDonalds" she paused to savor the name "James"
Ash rushed out of the Science Lab as soon as the bell rang for lunchtime. He was anxious to see Misty. He had the biggest crush on her but he was too scared to ask her out. Besides word was around that she had a thing for James. Ash didn't have a clue what Misty saw in James, or what any other girl did for that matter. He knew for a fact that Jessi was after him as well. She was a bitch and he was the first to admit it. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't have time to dodge a blue shape running full pelt towards him.
"WHOA!"
"OOMF!"
Ash found himself and his books sprawled across the floor, his arms and legs entangled with somebody else's.
"I'm soo sorry!" she apoligised as she helped him up. Ash got his first good look at her. She was very pretty with short blue hair and deep brown eyes.
"That's OK" he comforted
"Hi, I'm Jenny" she smiled as she handed him his books "And are you doing anything tonight?"
"I'm Ash" he said, returning the smile "And I'm not at all busy tonight"
Brock smiled warmly at Cassidy and she sneered back. Turning away he said, "Aren't I ever going to get lucky?"
Unfortunately his statement was heard by Gary, known all over the school by the fact that he always had a group of girls at his heels, literally.
"Well, Brock my boy," he replied in a conceited voice "Some people have it and others don't. I have it, but you, my friend, do not!" he bowed elaborately and strode off, leaving Brock to fume over his teasing. But the thing that angered him the most was that there was an element of truth in the insult. Gary may be a creep, he thought, but he does manage to get an unlikely number of followers. Brock glanced to the right and saw Butch and Jessibelle on their way to the locker bays, hand in hand. Brock felt immediately jealous, Butch wasn't exactly god looking either, he thought, so how come he ended up with a gorgeous babe like Jessibelle? That was when he saw her. She had short dark blue hair in pigtails and a perfect shaped face. Even the hideous regulation school uniform looked good on her. She was so beautiful. Brock felt a wave of determination crash over him. This time, he told himself, I'm NOT gonna screw it up! And with that he sauntered over her.
Butch gazed over the cafeteria as he waited for Jessibelle to arrive with her tray of food. He wasn't looking for anyone in particular, just spacing out. His eyes were subconsciously drawn to someone at a front table. It was Joy. She was the Perfect All Round Student, A+ average, in all the clubs, played sports and the flute. She wasn't just perfect either, he noticed with shrouded admiration; she was also extremely hot. She had dusky pink hair styled into two elaborate coils on either side of her head and her eyes were perfect blue. He gasped, realising what he had been thinking. He had been steady with Jessibelle for seven months and there were jokes going around that they were married. Everyone said they were the perfect couple and up until lately, Butch had believed it. Recently he had been feeling distant and alone. He thought he knew why and he was afraid. Afraid that his relationship with Jessibelle would come to an end.
Gabby sighed in depression and threw her tray down at a lunch table that was unoccupied. She didn't feel like eating with the popular crowd at the moment. Their bubbly speech and shallow conversation would have driven her nuts.
"Hey, why aren't you over at your friends table?" asked a familiar voice. Gabby groaned inwardly and smiled at her cousin Kishi as she sat down across from her.
"You haven't had a fight have you?" she pressed, even though she didn't need to. Gabby had a knack for guessing when Kishi was using her psychic powers for no good.
"Ah-ha!" she said triumphantly "You finally realise the truth!"
"Give it a rest will you, Kishi?" Gabby snapped irritably
"Sorry cuz" Kishi apoligised sincerely "You know you can talk to me if you want, or hang around with Misty and I or whatever"
"Where is Misty anyhow?" Gabby said a little snappily, changing the subject.
"Probably off moping over her beloved James" Kishi rolled her eyes
"What does she see in him?" Gabby sighed
James strode past them at that moment and after his gorgeous frame had passed they both collapsed into giggles.
"Duh!"
Snap inspected his camera with detached interest. He was changing and he knew it. Whilst he always ate his lunch outside, alone, he was beginning to long for popularity. Last year he had despised anyone who was in the 'In' crowd, but this year it was different. He had made himself a social outcast and he regretted it now. A tear fell from his eye and he hurriedly wiped it away. His life was so stupid, so pointless, and all because he had focused on his photography rather than his friends.

Poketech High, episode 2, This isn't my day.
Authors note- I am SOOO TOTALLY SORRY for this story being taken off air for improvements but I wasn't happy with it and the title sucked and it made Kishi out to be some kind of slut (which she isn't) so here it is, back again!
The Scene- After school on Wednesday (the day that the last story took place) Cassidy & Jessi are sitting outside the Pokemart and talking.
Cassidy managed a bored smile as she listened to Jessi rave on about James. James this, James that, James said, James has, James does. So what if she got a date with him? Sure it was cool, but did Jessi NEED to go on about it?
With any luck her dream date will be a disaster, Cassidy thought evilly as she watched her friend go into a state of blissful rapture over James.
What's so good about him anyhow? She asked herself, He seems like a poof, a rich poof, but a poof none the less. She found herself glancing over the road at the Bike Shop. A girl with long green hair and a guy with an amazing Mohawk were arguing with the shopkeeper, voices raised intentionally.
"Who are they?" Cassidy asked with detached interest
"How am I supposed to know?" Jessi snapped back
"Take a chill pill" Cassidy said angrily
"WHAT-ever!" said Jessi as she got up to leave
"OH, I haven't upset the little princess, have I?" Cassidy said scornfully
Jessi didn't bother to reply, she just stormed off down the street, leaving Cassidy to seethe over her actions.
Scene- Outside the Public Phone near the Post Office
"So are you coming over tonight?" Misty asked Ash. It was a friendly thing. He, she, Kishi, Gabby and Gary always hung out after school or whenever.
Whilst he knew it was childish and all, he hated to say no to her.
"No" he answered mysteriously
"Why?" Misty seemed genuinely shocked
"I" he bragged, rubbing it in "Have a date"
"Ohhh..." Misty trailed off. Ash could vaguely see that she was disappointed "Anyone I know?" She was suddenly her old chirpy self again.
"I don't think so. Jenny Lowater?"
"Is she friends with Joy Ferry?" Misty inquired
Ash shrugged "She's got short blue hair and brown eyes and a squeaky kind of voice"
"I think I know the one" Misty said hesitantly. The conversation seemed to have run dry.
Ash lowered his head and scratched the nape of his neck uncomfortably; unable to think of what he could say next.
"I gotta go" Misty turned away and jogged off.
Ash stood, wondering why he had ever even accepted Jenny's invitation in the first place.
The Scene- Jessibelle's house
"HEY MUM!" yelled Charlie, Jessibelle's annoying younger brother "BELLE HAS BROUGHT HER BOYFRIEND AROUND AGAIN!"
Butch sighed and dropped his schoolbag at the counter, as usual.
"Shut up you little gaybo!" she griped and shooed him away. "MUM!" she called towards the back of their country style house "Butch is here!"
"That's nice, dear" her mother replied. Jessibelle shrugged and grinned at him. He grinned back. He liked being at Jessibelle's house. Sometimes. The times when her older sisters Charlene and Lucinda weren't throwing wild parties and when her little brother didn't have his immature friends around he enjoyed considerably.
"Wanna go down the street?" Jessibelle asked as Lucinda stepped into the kitchen. Lucinda was nineteen and was having a major fight with Jessibelle. They never spoke to one another at all. It was pathetic, but Butch didn't want to get involved in that family feud.
"Sure" he shrugged, patting his wallet. It was better than listening to Lucinda and Jessibelle slag off on each other, anyhow.
The Scene- Outside Mt. Moon
Snap was taken photos of a Geodude sunning itself on a rock. It was completely oblivious to his presence, at least until they stepped up behind him.
At first he hadn't been sure who they was but a better look revealed it was Kishi, Gabby, Gary and Misty.
"Hi Snap!" Kishi said cheerily. Snap was amazed, Kishi knew his name! Then he remembered, Kishi was a promising young psychic who had trained with Sabrina, the leader of the Saffron City Gym.
"Yeah hi" Gabby said, much less enthusiastically than her cousin. Snap smiled nervously and Gary looked faraway and bored. Misty too, seemed preoccupied.
"I'm Kishi Ogawa" she introduced, clearly the only one interested in conversation "And this is my cousin, Gabby Ogawa and my two friends Misty Waterflower and Gary Oak"
"I'm Snap Walker" he said foolishly
"Are you gonna catch that Geodude?" Gary asked. Snap shook his head.
"Cool." Gary shrugged and took a Pokeball off his belt "POKEBALL GO"
"DON'T!" Snap blurted before he had the sense to stop.
"And why not?" Gary fumed through squinted eyes
"Because I'm photographing it in its natural environment" he answered weakly, all hope of becoming friends with him gone. He half expected Gary to mock him but he just shrugged and nodded.
"I'm goin'" he muttered. Gabby and Misty followed him but Kishi stayed.
"So," she said, positioning herself next to him "How on Earth do you use a camera?"
The Scene- The opening of Mt. Moon
Brock squinted as he stepped out of the cave and into the searing sunlight. At first he thought her shape was merely an illusion from the lack of light he had suffered back there, but as his vision came into focus he saw her in her full glory. It was the girl from school. The blue haired one. But she was with some photographer dude. He decided that he had to take the chance and he went over to talk to her.
The Scene- Outside Mt. Moon
Kishi shielded her eyes from the harsh sunlight with the back of her hand and smiled at Brock genuinely. He was so incredibly nice that she couldn't believe she'd never hung out with him before. That fact was true for Snap also. She was aware that both guys liked her but she didn't feel the same. For probably only the third time in her sixteen years Kishi could say that she truly did not have any feelings for any guy at all. She looked over at Brock and Snap's smiling faces and smiled too. She felt nothing stronger than friendship for either of them, but she was happy that the two half-casts had met up, and even if it meant acting oblivious to their fondness towards her, she was determined to make them friends.
The Scene- Jessi waiting at McDonalds for James to show up.
Jessi snuck a glance at herself in the mirror. She looked nice but cheap. Her family was quite poor and she couldn't afford the nice clothes that the other girls got which always made her embarrassed and uncomfortable. And added to that fact her mother and father were constantly fighting and Jessi knew soon they would break up, but she tried to pretend it wasn't happening, that they were a proper family and she was still the little princess...
An hour later James still hadn't shown up. Jessi couldn't kid herself any longer and she began to cry. She fled the restaurant in tears, unable to cope with this one last blow.
James's Bedroom, Pokemon Manor house
James stared out his bedroom window onto the fields below. He was aware he had stood Jessi up, but he didn't really care. He had only one love and he knew he would always love her, forever. The name clung bitterly to his lips as he whispered her name hoarsely.
"Gabby..."
But why did he like her? He was so popular he could click his fingers and the girls would come running, and vise versa for Gabby. Was his affection more a love of challenge than a love of person? Did he only feel towards her because she was the only girl who hadn't dropped at his feet?
"Or am I just a selfish barstad who thinks he's a super star?" he wondered aloud. One thing, however, was for sure. Gabby didn't share his feelings.
To Be Continued...
The series is going to get more exciting one day, I promise you all...
Here's a Weather Forecast- Parties, getting drunk, betrayal, remorse, stress, changing and money!
