"Let me go!" Ash yelled.

"Inkay use hypnosis on him." James yelled looking away to avoid being hypnotized too.

"What no!" Ash yelled.

Ash began to struggle more and tried to avoid looking at Inkay but that was hard to when the physic type was holding onto his head. He resorted to closing his eyes and clenched them tight. James was getting frustrated .

"Sorry about this twerp." James said.

He took out a small sewing needle and poked Ash with it. (If your wonder where he got the needle, who do you think know fixes all those popped balloons?) His plan worked as Ash's eyes snapped open and he was immediately caught in the hypnosis. Ash went limp and fell to the ground with his eyes open and slightly clouded.

James nodded to Inkay who used physic to pull the nearest fire alarm. James put a pair of sunglasses on Ash to cover his eyes and ran out of the building, carrying Ash.

On the opposite side of the mall Serena, Clemot , Bonnie and Pikachu got out of the mall when the fire department and officer Jenny arrived on the screen.

"Where's Ash?" Serena asked in panic.

"Pika Pi!" Pikachu yelled.

"Attention everyone you are allowed to go back in the fire was a false alarm." Officer Jenny yelled threw her megaphone

"I wonder who pulled the alarm." Clemot said.

The group entered the mall and Bonnie saw something.

Ash's hat.

On the ground.

With no Ash in sight.

Back with Ash and James, James had brought Ash to the nearest hotel where he had rented a room ahead of time. (KEEP YOUR DIRTY THOUGHTS IN YOUR HEAD YOU PERVERTS!) He set Ash down on the bed and opened his Team Rocket laptop.

"Giovanni, I have the kid." James said as the video chat opened up.

"Good, you will bring him to the Vradian City Gym in 6 weeks time, till then you must teach him all there is to know about Team Rocket. " Giovanni said.

"Six weeks?! Sir a normal cadet has two months of training! " James exclaimed.

"You will do it in six weeks and no longer!" Giovanni yelled.

James flinched slightly.

"You two will stay in the penthouse at the Grand Star hotel in BlackBerry City." Giovanni said.

"But what if the other twerps get suspicious?" James asks.

" I will have that taken care of once you reach BlackBerry City." Giovanni says and then hung up.

James sighed and looked at Ash. The kid didn't deserve what was coming to him.

"Inkay come over here. Let's get this over with." James said.

Inkay floated over and used Physic to hold up Ash.

Later that night Ash's friends were sitting in the Pokémon Center waiting for him. Just as Nurse Joy was about to close up, dress differently than normal.

As usual Ash wore a hat but this one was almost completely black except for an electric blue poke ball symbol. He had a black jacket that looked like some sort of leather with gray cotton sleeves and hood. Underneath was an electric blue shirt with a black scratch pattern on the front. His pants were dark gray and tucked into his new expensive looking combat boots. He also wore a pair of black and blue fingerless gloves, his hair into a messy pony tail and had a pair of black aviators hanging from his shirt.

Serena swooned and fainted, Bonnie blinked in surprise, Clemot's first thought was puberty and Pikachu just ran up to Ash and hopped onto his shoulder happily.

" 'Sup guys?" Ash said.
