Okay, so this is the second chapter of this story! It's definitely a lot longer, and if there are any mistakes, please let me know! I've worked on this chapter for about 6 hours (seriously) 'cause I couldn't decide how I was going to write my ideas. My little brother was also annoying me to hell, so I made loads of hopefully corrected spelling and grammar mistakes. Last of all, I'd like to thank sunshinedasies, amaya-tama and dEnIsE tHe StRaNgE for the great reviews! *Hands out cookies* Consider this fanservice )
Disclaimer:I still don't own Pokemon, so I have nothing to tell you about. Apart from owning Rebecka
Rebecka slowly opened her eyes as the smell of delectable cooking met her nose. She mumbled and tried to stand up, but was weighed down by two little creatures on her shoulders.
"Pikapi!"
"Pidgeooo!"
She opened her eyes fully to see her Pidgeotto on her right shoulder and a Pikachu on her left.
"Pidgeotto... and... Pikachu?"she questioned.
"Alright, she's awake! Brock, Misty, come over here!"
Rebecka looked sharply up to be greeted by three strangers and a splitting headache.
"I don't think you should do that again. Here, this will help with the pain."
An ice-pack found it's way to the sore spot on her head and she got a good look at the people helping her. There were two boys, one with manic black hair and a cap who looked about 10, possibly a rookie trainer, and the other was about 15, with what seemed to be permanently closed eyes and quite dark skin. Behind them was a girl with carrot-coloured hair, holding what she knew to be a Togepi.
"There, does that feel better?"asked the older boy. Rebecka nodded and took over holding the ice-pack. He helped her to her feet and the younger boy stepped forward, the Pikachu jumping on his shoulder and her Pidgeotto perching on his head.
"Pidgeotto! Get off his head, that's rude!"she commanded and the boy chuckled.
"No, it's okay! I have my own Pidgeotto, I'm used to it! I'm Ash by the way."he said, smiling slightly.
"I'm Rebecka, spelt the Swedish way. R-E-B-E-C-K-A."she replied.
"Oh, so that is your name? Rebecka... it's the name of an angel, and you are an angel. You looked beautiful sleeping, but now you are awake, you're even more beautiful. How about I give you a kiss to make sure you're not Sleeping Beau- Owww! Argh! Misty, not the ear!"
Rebecka sweatdropped as the older boy was dragged off by the girl, who had a firm pinch on his ear. Ash laughed nervously and rubbed the back of his neck before saying,
"That's Misty and Brock. Brock's a real flirt, but I don't think he'll try to get you again."
Just then, Misty came up to Rebecka and stood face-to-face with her. It was more face-to-chin though, as she was a bit taller than Misty, who was about 11 at her guess.
"If Brock tries to flirt with you again, tell me. You are pretty, and he'll try to take advantage of you if you're hurt."
Rebecka had never been told she was pretty before, and looking over Misty's shoulder to see an embarrassed Brock, she nodded and said,
"I'll be sure to let you know."
"Hey Rebecka, would ya mind tellin' us how you got in trouble with those Beedrill?"
The memories of how she ended up there came flooding back. Teddiursa terrorising the tree, the furious Beedrill and the Thunderbolt that saved them.
"Yeah, sure."
They all sat down and she explained about how Teddiursa loved the sap from trees, and always managed to make something angry to get it and how he had ruined the Beedrill's tree. Ash laughed and said he had been chased by Beedrill on numerous occasions before, always escaping thanks to a bit of luck and/or Pikachu.
"Okay you guys, the food's ready!"Brock called. All the time he had sat by the pan, making the soup that woke her up. Now, it smelt good enough to be gourmet. She stood with the rest of them and walked over to get a bowl and spoon from Brock. She smiled when she saw Pikachu carrying his own little cup full of soup and desperately trying to keep baby Togepi from burning himself with it.
"PiPiPi!"he called, cautiously running after Togepi, who was toddling about with another soup cup.
"TogeTogePriii!"he trilled, spilling lots of scalding soup over the sides of the cup, narrowly missing his hands. In a whack attempt to get the cup away, Pikachu tackled him and grabbed it, leaving a confused little Togepi wondering where it's new pet had gone.
"Toge?"
Rebecka giggled and turned back to eat her soup. It was liquid heaven, and she was sure she must have died to taste food this good. She blinked absently a few times before blurting out,
"Brock, this is amazing..."
He turned a deep pink and tried to be modest.
"Ohohoh... it was nothing, I make this all the time!"
Her ears perked up at the thought of Ash and Misty getting food like this everyday.
"Wow... sometimes, I can barely find decent food, never mind cook..."
She snapped herself out of the daze when she realized how much of an idiot she must have sounded and continued to eat silently. When they had finished, Misty and Brock went to clean the dishes, leaving her and Ash to look after the Pokemon. Pikachu and Togepi seemed to be getting on well with Teddiursa, Pidgeotto and Espeon, who had made a full recovery from it's fainting.
"So Rebecka, why are you travelling?"Ash asked her.
"I helped Professor Elm in Johto for 3 years, so when I was 13, he said I knew loads about Pokemon and I should go and travel. I spent two years in Johto, and I decided to come to Kanto to see more.
"Are you competing in the Pokemon League?"Ash asked, what sounded like hope ringing in his husky voice. She smiled and shook her head, much to Ash's dismay.
"Oh... You'd have been a great rival. Your Pokemon look so strong..."
Rebecka wasn't an idiot and saw what he was trying to do.
"Look, if you want a battle, I'll give you one."she said. Ash's face lit up and he became quite excited at the thought of a battle.
"Alright! Let's have a battle n-"
"Ash! It's Team Rocket!"
Ash was interrupted by Misty and Brock running towards them, a giant Beedrill Mecha flying behind them.
"Ahahahaha!Prepare for trouble!"
"Mwahahahaha! Make it double!"
"To protect the world from devastation!"
"To unite all peoples within our nation!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To extend our reach to the stars above!"
"Jessie!"
"James!"
"Team Rocket blast of at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight, fight, fight!"
"Meowth, dat's right!"
Rebecka stared at the Mecha as a few people became visible from the 'eyes'. Two people and a Pokemon to be more precise. She was still a distance away, but she thought that the Pokemon was a Meowth... but it could talk?
"Ahaha twerp! Our new Mechanical Beedrill is our best yet! It's indestructible, and it's eco-friendly!"the woman, Jessie, laughed.
"Yeah twerp, hand over Pikachu! You'll never win!"squealed a camp voice. That must have been 'James'.
"Erm, Ash? Who are these dopes?"Rebecka asked unsurely.
"They're Team Rocket! They keep trying to steal my Pikachu, but they haven't yet, and they won't now! Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"
"Piiika-Chuuuuuuuu!"
The electricity streamed from the mouses body and engulfed the Mecha, but instead of hearing the agonised screams of Team Rocket, she heard the annoying laughs.
"We're not stupid twoip! D'you tink dat after 1000 blast-orffs we don't know to make our snatchers electricity-proof?"Meowth cackled "Right! Snatcher stingers, go!"
The two stingers from the front of the Beedrill shot forward, grabbing Pikachu and Espeon as well.
" Pikachu!" "Espeon!"
"PiPi-kachu!" "Eeeee!"
The TRio laughed maliciously as the Pokemon struggled in the grabbers red hands and the trainers yelled to let them go. A spurt of quick thinking from Rebecka later, and the Pokemon were free.
"Pidgeotto! Use Gust to bring the tree down on the Mecha!"
" Pidgeooo!"
A few strong flaps of the wings from Pidgeotto and the tree landed on the Mecha, grounding it and the operators. The three thieves crawled out of the wrecked machine and Rebecka saw for the first time that James was kinda... handsome...
"PikaPi!" "Eeee!"
"Okay Team Rocket, you'll pay for trying to steal them!"
"Okay Espeon! Use Psybeam!"
"Eeee!"Espeon scrunched up it's eyes again and concentrated deeply, it's eyes flashing a gentle red and nothing else happening.
"Come on... You can do it..."she whispered desperately, but nothing happened. Espeon simply fell over again, still as a statue from exhaustion. Team Rocket burst out laughing and Rebecka flushed pink, especially when she heard James' deep and sexy laugh in the midst of Jessie and Meowths'.
"Hey, shut up you freaks!"she snapped.
"Yeah! Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"Ash screamed.
"Piiika-Chuuuuuuuu!"
Now Rebecka heard the agonised screams of Team Rocket and a big explosion behind them confirmed the Mecha had exploded, and next thing she saw of the TRio was a little star in the sky and the words "Team Rocket's blasting off again!"
Rebecka stared blankly at the sky and smirked slightly at the knowledge that an absolute hottie had just been 'blasted off'. Hang on... what the hell was she thinking? She mentally shook herself and turned to see Pikachu cooing on Ash's shoulder. She felt something brush against her leg and saw Espeon calling out apologetically, on the verge of collapse. She smiled and picked him up, reassuring and petting him.
"So you see them everyday?"she asked, referring to Team Rocket.
"Yeah. They just won't give up."Misty sighed. Rebecka chuckled and looked at the sky again. They had real determination, and she always looked for determination in hot, camp men...
So... Rebecka has a fancy eye for James, huh? Btw, like I said in the chapter, Rebecka is 15 and I'm gonna make James 18. I think he's actually about 20, but I don't want the age-gap to be more than 2-3 years or Rebecka to be an adult. James looks young anyway though, he could be 15 for all I care ^_^ Anyway, I hope you liked the chapter, and I'll try and update again before Christmas, but give me about 2 days to a week for me to write my chapters up, 'kay?
Mew Mew Radish ='.'=
P.S. Merry Christmas if I don't update again until after the 25th December!
