Well now to chapter 4.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ash was on his way to the Pokemon Center until he noticed some odd people around.

Voice: AAAAAHHHH!

Ash: that..doesn't sound pleasant.

Ash slowly opened the door and carefully looked around. He noticed that two people were dragging Nurse Joy to another room.

There was a girl and two other guys holding guns and they all had Houndoom with odd looking armor.

Ash: (I could handle the Houndoom, but the people with guns could be risky)

After a minute or two Ash couldn't wait any longer and when the people weren't looking he commanded his Pikachu to Thunderbolt the group. Ash was successful at getting the group to flinch, but they were still standing and now that is cover was blown, he knew he had to act fast or he was screwed.

Ash: Pikachu use Thunder.

Again Pikachu attacked but this time the group and the Houndoom were looking weak.

girl: Houndoom use Flamethrower.

Ash: Pikachu dodge and use Thunder again.

Pikachu dodged and Ash ended up doing so as well. Once Pikachu's thunder hit he saw that the Houndooms fell and so did one of the guys and the girl. The one guy tried to run but one of the people stopped him. Ash ran to where the nurse had been taken.

He saw the two guys coming back towards him.

Guy 1: Who are you?

Guy 2: What happened to the rest of the guys?

Ash: Names Ash Ketchum and if you don't want to be electrocuted to unconsciousness then you'll answer some of my questions.

Guy 1: So you took them out? No matter you won't stop us.

Guy 2: By now you should be weak if you had to deal with the others.

Ash: Pikachu has had tougher fights for breakfast.

No one spoke for a moment.

Ash: Well? Do you have any pokemon?

On closer inspection Ash could see the guys had no poke balls, at least that he could see.

Ash: Pikachu use Thunderbolt.

Pikachu shocked both the guys and hard.

Guy 2: F-Fine! What do you want to know?

Ash: 1) Who are you guys and what are guys doing? 2) Where's Nurse joy?

Guy 1: Nurse Joy is at the end of this hall.

Guy 2: We are Team Magma and when we tell everyone else about you, prepare for the beating of a lifetime.

Guy 1: That's right Steve when we get the team in a gang against you will beat you so hard colorful will be an understatement.

Steve: And your friends and family too, right John?

John: yea.

Ash: alright leave already.

Steve: fine but you will wish you never met us.

Ash(getting quite annoyed with the chatter boxes): already regretting it.

As the Magma members left, Ash went down the hall and opened the door.

Nurse Joy: Thank you.

Ash: no problem.

Nurse Joy: Well time to get back to healing pokemon.

Ash: alright, can I heal mine now?

Nurse Joy: sure.

Ash gave Joy his poke balls and left. All of sudden the power was back on. When he got back he noticed that the people looked relieved and happy. Ash left the pokemon center and went back to the Maple house.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________

May: Ash where have you been?!

Ash: Well I was held up at the pokemon center by a group called Team Magma.

May: did they hurt you?!

Ash: Nope, I defeated them before they could do much.

May: Well that's good to hear.

Brock: yeah I was worried.

Norman: I surprised, Team Magma aren't a bunch of pushovers.

May: You've dealt with Team Magma?

Norman: Once and they almost beat me.

Ash: Where's Misty?

May: She and Max went out.

Ash: But Misty is to old for Max.

May giggled at the joke, but Ash's luck had ran out as Misty heard what Ash said and was anything but happy. BOONG! Ash had felt the fury of Misty and her magical mallet.

Ash: Owww. So, Norman, you ready for tomorrow's battle?

Norman: of course, especially since you took down Team Magma so easily.

Ash: (Yawning) alright; well I'll get some sleep for now.

May: (yawning as well) sounds like a good idea.

Norman: Well Ash you can share a room with May. Misty, you can share a room with Max, and Brock, you can stay in the guest room.

All the kids: alright.

After everyone left:

Caroline: do you really think that boy defeated Team Magma so easily.

Norman: Maybe; tomorrow we'll see.

Caroline: Why did you let him sleep with are daughter?

Norman: I though that it would help them both.

Caroline: I don't think are daughter should be in a relationship THIS soon!

Norman: I think it will be just fine.

Caroline: (sigh) I think you're to laid back, but maybe you're right.

WITH ASH AND MAY 9:56 P.M.

May: So you really took those Team Magma members down easily?

Ash: yep. I had to shock two of them really bad.

May: Oh; by the way where you planning on going when you get the badge.

Ash: I don't know. Are you still gonna travel with me?

May: Sure. After all, there is no one I would rather travel with.

Ash: Alright; goodnight May.

May: Goodnight Ash.

Misty: So that's why May doesn't like battling.

Max: Yep, she likes traveling but not so much battling.

Misty: (oh just wait till Ash hears this)

THE NEXT MORNING 9:12 A.M.

Ash: uuugh.

May: Ash get up!

Ash: just a few more minutes.

May: C'mon, please get!

Ash: give me a reason.

May: Gym battle! Remember?!

Ash: rrrg.

(May gives Ash a peck on the cheek)

Ash: Alright I'm up and ready to go!

May: well lets go!

Ash: actually I left my pokemon at the pokemon center

May: ok I'll meet you there.

IN THE GYM 10:00 A.M.

Norman: Ready Ash!

Ash: As I'll ever be.

Norman: alright, go Slakoth.

A Sloth like pokemon appeared standing on its hind legs.

Ash: Slakoth eh? (pulls out pokedex)

Pokedex: It sleeps virtually all day and night long. It doesn't change its nest its entire life, but it sometimes travels great distances by swimming in rivers.

Ash: Well… Go Taillow. Taillow Tai, it announced.

Brock: Let the battle begin!

Alright, that's chapter 4. I was going to split it between Ash and May's perspectives but I decide that wasn't necessary and don't worry Steve and John will be back… eventually.
