3 Person's POV
As the electric mouse hit the floor, Ash jumped forward, but ended up falling face forward on the floor because of the ropes around him. Unfortunately for Team Rocket, Ash's Pokémon have a mind of their own as Gible popped out of his Pokéball. "Gib?" He took one look around him, and then without warning, glowed a sudden pure white light.
"Gible?" Ash whispered. Then his bonds went slack as a Dragon Claw ripped through them. "Ga Gabite!" his dragon cried as the Rockets nearby backed up. Pushing himself up, Ash stumbled over to his once proud Pikachu. "What did they do to you, buddy?" he whispered as he lifted Pikachu into his arms. That's when Giovanni smiled. "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt." he commanded. Ash watched as his Pokémon's cheeks sparked, and released a powerful blast of electricity. "Gabit, hold Pikachu!" Ash called out, sparking, as the attack stopped. "Gab Gab." he nodded as Pikachu went into his arms.
Reaching back, Ash enlarged a Pokéball on his belt and released it. "Sceptile!" his Forest Pokémon cried. "Sceptile, keep everyone away with Leaf Blade!" he told his Pokémon. The small plants on Sceptile's arms enlarged as they glowed. Leaf Blade was in effect. With Gabite at his back and Sceptile in front, Ash Ketchum shoved the doors open as he raced through the halls to the exit.
Giovanni pressed the intercom button on his desk. "All units, lockdown the building! We have an undercover youth in the building. He cannot escape! I repeat, lockdown the building!" Sighing, he closed his eyes. I am too old for this, he thought.
Ash Ketchum hurried past the surprised Grunts. Only a few of them realised that he was the youth trying to escape. The small escapees stopped at a steel door. "Gabite, try a Dragon Pulse." he asked the Land Shark.
"Gabbbbbite!" he cried as a teal coloured sphere of energy hit the door, creating a large hole. They continued to run, only to be stopped by a Houndoom. "Well, well, well, thought you could escape," said a voice. It was familiar, yet not? He turned to see a blond girl in a Rocket uniform. She looked strong. Behind her were two Rocket Grunts.
"Who are you? The Shadow Triad?" Ash mocked, knowing full well who she was.
The blond scowled. " I am the Black Tulip. I also go by the name Domino. These are my henchmen."
Ash turned to his Pokémon. Sceptile was weak against a Houndoom, Pikachu looked awful, and Gabit was holding Pikachu. Sighing, he expanded a Pokéball. "Let's go, Charizard!" he yelled as the immense dragon was released in a flash of white light. "CHAR!" he yelled in fury and might. The Grunts looked like they were frozen, but the Black Tulip commanded Houndoom. "Flamethrower, and be quick about it." she called out.
He smirked. "Charizard, show those Rockets your new move. Overheat!" Ash grinned. "Charrrizard!" he roared as an immense force pushed the raven haired boy back, along with warm air blowing on his face.
Houndoom didn't stand a chance as it was knocked to the ground. Slowly it began to get up "Charizard, Dragon Tail!" Ash yelled. "Zard!" he called out as his blue tail sent Houndoom back towards Domino, it's eyes swirling. Scowling, she recalled the Dark Pokémon. "Sceptile, Bullet Seed!" He said as seeds were shot at the Rockets, covering their escape. Rushing through the halls, Ash continued to keep his heart from stopping as they ran. The longer they were in the building, the slimmer their chances of escape. What if we don't make it? What will happen to us?
Ash's POV
Adrenaline was coursing through my body as we shoved our way through the crowds. It wasn't hard, especially when you have a Sceptile, Gabite, and Charizard helping out. During our escape, I heard a few screams, many curses, and one female Grunt fainted. Sort of overkill, right? Of course, the hope I once had was destroyed when I came to the exit to see over 50 Rockets blocking it, along with Domino and Giovanni. His Persian was stalking towards me, claws extended. Sceptile and Charizard got into battle positions, while Gabite looked at me fiercely, telling me it was ready. And my Pikachu was still looking sickly, but was able to lift it's head and whisper "Pikapi..." That was when I realised it was over. I wasn't getting out of here alive. I felt a sharp pain in my arm, and cried out as I saw a Poison Sting in my arm. My eyes closing, I toppled over, the last thing I saw was Charizard using Flamethrower and Sceptile looking at me, alarmed.
3 Person's POV
The young man was lying in Giovanni's office, on the floor. His arm was wrapped well in bandages, and the poison had been cured. His Pokémon were in cages on Level 4, and his Pikachu was being treated by a Nurse in the building. Now Giovanni just had to wait for the raven haired boy to awaken.
"Arggg, what the fudge? Where's Misty and Duplica? Brock? Arceus, where am I? Please tell me that Mom's not going to remind me to change my under-"
"Excuse me, but could you please pay attention?" Giovanni inntureupted.
Groggily, Ash focused his eyes to take in his surroundings. Realizing where he was, he jumped slightly. "Giovanni!" he growled.
"Yes, yes, we both hate each others guts. But right now, your Pokémon are in cages and the building is surrounded. Your Pikachu is on life support, and you are in my office. So it's a good idea to listen to me right now."
Grumpily, he stopped struggling to leave. Giovanni could still hear him mumble things like "why should I listen to you," and "you can't tell me what to do,".
Waiting for the captured trainer to remain silent, the head of Team Rocket smiled. His plan was working.
"Now, you know who I am, and I know who you are. You are Ash Ketchum, son of Delia Ketchum, you started your journey at the age of 10 in Pallet started with a Pikachu, given to you from Professor Oak. You placed Top 16 at the Pokémon League, Top 8 at the Silver Confrence, Top 8 in the Vertress Confrence, Top 4 in the Lily of the Valley Conference, and returned to Kanto. You have a Charizard, Pikachu, Gabite, and Sceptile. Right now there are Team Rocket members surrounding Pallet Town, your hometown, in the event that you decline my most generous offer." Giovanni stated.
"What offer?" Ash questioned suspiciously.
"You are to join Team Rocket, train under Domino, and then use your skills to defeat the Elite Four and Lance, at which time you will reveal your name and your allies, Team Rocket."
Giovanni paused. "This will allow us to infiltrate the League, and in time, take over Kanto."
"If you think that I will let you use me like that, then you obviously don't know me that well." Ash said, and then spat towards the crime boss.
By now, Giovanni was smiling.
"Of course you will, because if you don't, Rockets will break into your house and kill your mother. Right now, according to my sources, she is having her daily tea with Professor Oak and his grandson, Gary Oak. They will not leave them unscathed."
The leader of Team Rocket got up, and walked towards Ash. Almost nose to nose, he spoke in a calm but threatening voice.
"We will kill everyone you ever spoke with. We will destroy your life. If you did leave this building somehow, you would probably be accused of murder and sentenced to death. I will ask again. Will you join Team Rocket?"
Ash gulped. Closing his eyes, he thought all his friends.
Flashback
Pikachu in his arms, he swam as fast as he could from the Gyarados. He felt a tug, and wasthen pulled out of the river by a young redheaded trainer.
"What were you doing in there?"
"Wow, Brock! This is delicious! Your cooking is the best!" he called out to the Gym Leader.
"Yeah Brock, this is better than usual. Thanks!" Misty agreed.
"Can we go see Professor Oak now Ash?
Can we go see Professor Oak now Ash?
Please Ash? Can we go?
Can we go see Professor Oak now Ash?
Ash, I wanna meet him! ASH!"
"Alright, Tracey!"
"That name! Don't mention that name!"
"Brock!"
"Blastoise is unable to battle which means Charizard is the winner and the match goes to Ash!" the announcer called out across the stadium.
"Gary, you fought really well." I complemented that brown haired rival of mine.
"You earned it, Ashy-boy."
"May, you eat almost as much as Ash!"
"MAX!" the Coordinator yelled as her brother ran from the girl's fury. Brock mearly chuckled.
"Jessie!"
"James!"
"Meowth, that's a name!"
Putting the do-gooders in their place,"
"We're Team Rocket,"
"And we're in your face!"
"WOBBUFFET!"
"Mime Mime!"
"Every Coordinator has to have a Pokétch!"
"Why do we need one, Dawn?"
"No need to worry, guys!" Dawn quoted.
Together, Brock and I called out "And that's when I worry the most!"
"Don't forget to change your underwear everyday, sweetie!"
I facepalmed. "Mooommm! I'm a trainer now! I'll be fine!
End Flashback
"I'll do it."

P. S. I don't own Pokémon, or that KitKat anymore. I gave it to Gaige's Peppy Sweetheart. Sorry to those "others" who wanted it. You snooze, you lose. Bye!
