The man balanced himself up. "You need to run away! All of Team Rocket is here. They don't know you're here, so you should go now!" he looked at each of them before staring for a long time at Serena. He started to talk again. "Are you-"

Just then a loud rumble came and helicopters came flying above them. Multiple cars rode up and motorcycles swerved around them continuously. They all had the same red R symbol on their vehicles and black suits.

One motorcycle bigger than the others rode up and stopped next to them. A huge shirtless biker with bulging biceps stepped up. He had a mohawk of orange hair and sunglasses. He also had fingerless gloves with metal studs in between the knuckles. When he spoke, it sounded like an earthquake happening.

"I'm Admin Smasher of Team Rocket. I don't know who most of you are, but I'm willing to let you four go unharmed in exchange for this guardian," he smiled, thinking Ash and the others would do what he said. Ash put an arm in front of the man in the silver suit. "You're not getting to him,"

The man's lower bruised face smiled as he smirked. "Yeah, and even if they did let me go with you, you wouldn't even be able to catch me." He took out his right hand and focused on it. Eventually, a little bright blue orb appeared in his hand, that grew larger and larger until it was the size of a soccer ball. "Let's play ball!" and he pitched the Aura Sphere like a baseball player.

Smasher dived to the side as it ripped through his motorcycle like a baseball going through paper, before tearing through the metal grate of a nearby car and going into the engine.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!

Ash looked at the man in awe. He was now enveloping in a black aura. He yelled to them, "If any of you have Dark types, or Pokemon with dark type moves, now would be a great time to use them."

Ash caught on. "I choose you, Greninja!"

"Go, Pancham!" Serena yelled.

The two pokemon stood side by side. Ash took the offensive.

"Use Night Slash on those motorcycles!"

Greninja nodded before running at top speed at the motorcycles until he was right next to one and sliced the front tire in half, causing a huge explosion, causing the goons to stop.

"Great job!" Ash told Greninja, before he and Serena returned their Pokemon to their Pokeballs.

Smasher stood up, pain etched on his face. Then it turned into anger.

"I'm gonna crush you slimy kids to bits!" He ran forward and grabbed the nearest person to him, which was Serena.

"Get off me!" she cried as she tried to push him away, but his grip held on. "Ash!" Serena cried out.

"If any of you step closer, she gets it!" he growled at them.

"Serena!" Ash cried out. Seeing Smasher holding Serena like a trophy made his blood boil. He walked up to the Admin. When he saw Ash walking towards him, he laughed. "What's baby gonna do now, huh?" Which made Ash look like he was on fire.

"Get. Away. From. HER!" he pushed both hands at him. Smasher smirked… until he noticed he was floating off the ground and was outlined in a light blue hue. He dropped Serena and raised his hands in the air.

"Hey, kid, I was just joking!"

Ash smiled. "I thought that was Team Rocket's first rule: Never joke about threats." and with that, he sent Admin Smasher flying.

Then, he turned to all the undamaged vehicle and raised his hands. All of the cars and motorcycles were lifted up. The helicopters stopped rotating their propellers.

"If you value your life," he stated, giving them the evil eye. "FLEE!"

And with that he dropped them. The second they hit the ground, the cars and motorcycles sped away, immediately followed by the helicopters. None of them cared to look for their fallen Admin.

"WE DID IT!" everyone except the silver-suited man high-5ed. The man thought to himself, I thought I was the only one. The only Aura Guardian. But it seems this trainer… He could be one as well. He walked up to the group.

"Thanks for saving my neck back there. I appreciate it." The man then looked like he just remembered something.

"Oh, I almost forgot. My name is Will." He pressed a button on the side of his helmet and his visor folded up. Serena gave a gasp.

"Serena? Is something wrong?" Ash looked at her curiously.

She looked back at him. "It's just… Will's my brother."
