Summary: All Ash could do was stare at Drew. Well you couldn't really blame him; the kitty ears and tail made him look so... cute!

The Kitty Co-ordinator

It was a normal enough day. The sun was shining, the sky was blue and the group were heading to May's next contest site. The bubbly brunette couldn't wait, she had been training long and hard for this contest and she was raring to go. May was happily chatting to Brock about lunch ideas and Max was flipping through Ash's PokéDex as he wanted to look up a couple of new pokémon they had recently come across; the woods they were currently in were filled with all sorts of weird and wonderful pokémon. Ash just smiled and breathed in, taking in this nice, peaceful day. Pikachu sensed the ease in his trainer and relaxed against him. Yes, it was a normal enough day and nothing could ruin how tranquil it was...

...Okay I lied!

There was a violent shaking in the trees. Pikachu noticed it and quickly hopped off of Ash's shoulder and stood in an offensive position, ready to release a thunder bolt if there was any threat. The others stopped and wondered what on earth was going on as quite a commotion could be heard by this point. Then, without warning, a big streak of green flew out of the trees, knocking everyone off their feet.

"Give her back dammit!"

A very angry voice was shouting at... something...
Suddenly that something became very clear as a huge and very familiar hot air balloon floated into sight. The green blur stopped momentarily, allowing the heroes to get a proper look at what had knocked them all over. It was a Flygon, with a very angry looking Drew on top of it. He was glaring absolute daggers at Team Rocket and threatening, "Do you have a death wish or something?! Give her back NOW!!!"
It was clear that neither Drew nor Team Rocket had noticed the others, who were looking at the current scene playing in the sky with curiosity. However Ash couldn't stop himself from thinking, Damn, and it was such a good day... Trust Team rocket and the cocky co-ordinator to come and ruin it. To be honest, Ash didn't think much of Drew. He hated the way he would always spew out unnecessary insults and think he was leagues better than everyone else. Ash never acted cold towards the younger boy, but he never really made any special effort to be friends with him either.

As he was busy thinking, Drew had geared up Flygon for a massive charge at the ridiculous-looking Team Rocket vessel. It was a head on attack. Wow, Drew's seriously pissed off. I wonder what Team Rocket did.
"Hyper beam!" Drew was showing no mercy. At close range he unleashed a devastating attack (and the time it took to charge up for it was very impressive) which sent the balloon crashing to the ground. Drew wasted no time on getting his feet back on land and rushed up to the deflated Meowth balloon, searching frantically.

After a moment had passed, Jessie and James emerged from the mess and immediately clamped eyes on the "twerps."
Without hesitation, the duo (plus Meowth) launched into their infamous "Prepare for trouble" routine. When they had finished Jessie practically squealed, "Oh I can't believe our luck! First we get pretty boy's precious Roselia-" So that's why Drew was so mad... "-and now we also get Pikachu too!"

At this point Drew finally noticed the others and saw James holding a see-through box (the usual contraption designed to block pokémon attacks) containing Roselia. Jessie called out her Seviper and James quickly followed suit by letting his Cacnea join the battle. Ash and the others were completely used to this routine by now and each of them readied a pokémon to cause the inevitable blast-off. The battle proceeded with powerful attacks flying all over the place and, sensing an opportunity, Drew stealthily slipped behind enemy lines and managed to take his Roselia back.

Letting out a sigh of relief, the green haired boy released the grass pokémon from her confines and proceeded to order an attack once he was back with the group. Just when it looked like Team Rocket couldn't fight anymore (due to the K.O's on both their pokémon) they surprised everyone by drawing a highly complex looking hand gun...

Ash: Woah, woah, woah! Wait a second!

Me: What?

Ash: A hand gun?!

Me: Yes, that is what I said. Got a problem?

Ash: Uhhhh... YES!!! You can't give them guns!

Me: Why the heck not?!

Ash: Cuz someone could get hurt!

Me: Oh, and when you assault them with your pokémon you aren't hurting them?

Ash: ...

Me: Hah, I win! Now back to the story-

Ash: Hang on a sec! This is a kid's show you know!

Me: Yes but it's also my fanfiction. *grins evilly* Besides, the stuff you got up to in Passionate Rose wouldn't be part of a kids show now, would it?

Ash: *blushing* W-well...

Me: And I seem to remember that you didn't have any complaints then... Look Ash, even though I know you want to, you can't be f*cking Drew every two seconds. This is a story with a plot and it's staying T, got it?

Ash: *totally tomato coloured* Hey! I didn't mean-

Me: Look, you're totally ruining my story! So just shut up and take a bullet like a man! Hee, hee only joking! If you hadn't so rudely interrupted you would have found out that...

Jessie took aim and fired a shot, turned out that the "gun" was a laser!!

Ash: A LASER ISN'T ANY BETTER!

Me: Shut up! Please don't make me kill you off cuz then my idea for Respectshipping falls by the wayside.

Ash: ...Sorry...

Me: It's okay, just quit butting in alright?

Ask: *mumbling* 'Kay.

Me: As I was saying (or writing)...

The laser headed straight towards Drew. He would have dodged out the way but it was so fast that he barely saw it coming. The laser hit and Drew was flung back. Wanting to end this madness quickly, Ash commanded Pikachu to give a maximum power thunder bolt. The attack neatly sent their enemies flying off into the stratosphere.

The gang immediately ran to Drew's side. He had taken quite the hit but he managed to sit up with a groan and looked at the worried and yet... bewildered expressions around him.
"Ummmm... Drew, do you feel okay?" May asked, looking completely confused.
"Yeah. I feel fine, NYAAAAAA~"
Drew's eyes widened in shock and he quickly covered his mouth.
"What in the- meow- why am I- nyaaa~ HELP ME!"

Drew jumped up, totally freaking out at his inability to stop sounding like a cat. Once he was on his feet he knew that something... wasn't quite right. It felt like something was there that wasn't before. The co-ordinator couldn't figure out what felt so strange and scratched his head as he thought-
"WHA?! What's on my- meow- head?!"
The others were just staring at Drew's new form. If they weren't mistaken, the green haired boy had gained cat ears and a cat tail. His eyes had also become much bigger and of course, he made sounds like a cat when he tried to speak.

May was the first to take action. "Don't worry Drew," she said kindly, "We'll figure something out." She couldn't help but stroke his head affectionately, to which Drew did that hissy-growly noise that cats make when they're angry.
Brock was next to comfort the kitten, offering to assist in any way he could to get him back to normal and Max said something similar.
All Ash could do was stare at Drew. Well you couldn't really blame him; the kitty ears and tail made him look so... cute! But he shook his head severely; I can NOT allow myself to think like THAT! Just cuz he's got cat ears and a tail, and his eyes are so big and green... And he sounds so adorable when he meows or nyaaaaas... GAH! He is still the same cocky, inconsiderate jerk known as Drew. A total jerk! ...A cute, sexy jerk... NO, just a jerk!

No one was really sure how to proceed with this current kitty conundrum, but as they had promised to help the poor co-ordinator it looked like he would be travelling with them for a while.

x~x~x~x~x

Meanwhile, in a place far, far away (and currently unknown) Team Rocket were busy healing their wounds and marvelling once again at the fact that none of them had broken anything. Jessie still had the laser with her and planned to use it next time if it hadn't been broken in the blast off. She studied the laser carefully, before realizing something very odd.

"James..." she began, cautiously.
"Yes?"
"When you bought the laser, you did make sure to get the specific model I requested right?"
"Of course," said James, but he felt uneasy. He swallowed, "You wanted the 'Obliterator' laser right?"
"Why yes, yes I did. So then would you kindly explain to me why this laser is called the 'Kitty Creator?!'"
"The what?!"
"Dammit James you can't so anything right! And yet we wonder how those idiots Clutch and Cassidy rank higher than us? It's because they don't make completely foolish mistakes like this!"
"Umm... Jessie, I think his name is Butch-"
"I COULDN'T CARE LESS WHAT HIS NAME IS!!! Great, so now we have a completely useless laser that's broken anyway and no stolen pokémon. Why am I even paired with you two idiots?!" And with that, she stormed off.

James couldn't really object to anything his partner had said, but Meowth piped up and called after her saying, "Hey, what did I do?! James is the one who screwed up!"
"Thanks Meowth, at least I can always count on you to back me up," James sulked sarcastically.
