Chapter 8: The Rock Gym!
"Are you guys done packing up" Brock asked impatiently as he rushed over to Ash and May, who were kissing. Brock thought it was cute at first, but this was getting out of hand.
"Max is coming!" He shouted. May practically blasted up, frantically searching in all directions. Ash confusedly looked towards Brock. Brock smirked "Let's get going". May glared at him, for messing up there kiss, but finally finished, and they were off on the road. Ash and May holding hands. Brock looked over at the two, before continuing to walk along. Brock heard weird sounds, and turned around, only to see Ash and May, 25 feet back, kissing again! Brock clasped his hands in annoyance.
"Norman is coming!" He shouted mainly towards Ash. Ash jumped away from May, and basically did a repeat of what she had before. His eyes were full of fear. Brock smirked again.
"Ash, he isn't here" May said comfortingly grabbing his hand, and they were off again. Brock, walking behind them to make sure there were no more generally, walked in silence, Ash and May clinging to each other, while Brock kept in eye on them from behind. He was quickly getting bored, and saw they were there...
"So, have you guys sent out wedding invitations yet?" He asked suddenly, surprising Ash and May who did a blush-glare at Brock. Brock laughed, he understood why Max like this so much. Ash and May put there arms around each other, and Brock finally left them in peace, walking at a slower pace behind them, while trying to work the Pokenav.
"So, Ash are you excited for the next city?" May asked to Ash, who nodded.
"Yep, apparently they have a fossil place, where you can get prehistoric pokemon if you have a fossil. After seeing our opponents in that last battle, I think they could be useful" Ash responded.
"And... Do you want to go on a date with me?" He asked. May smiled over at him and nodded. They kissed yet again, fortunately this time Brock had stopped to work better with the Pokenav, so they had a few seocnds of peace. Unfortunately, this was soon interrupted.
"Get away!" A hollow voice bellowed from up ahead. A mysterious cloaked figure trotted out onto the path, hissing towards Ash. The cloak covered his features, but Ash, thought he saw a speck of green. The person, sent out a pokeball, revealing a Masquerain. Ash had seen enough.
"Drew!" He shouted in anger and confusion. The person smiled, removing the hood, confirming Ash's thoughts. Drew glared at Ash, but didn't look at May. She looked over in shock. What was Drew doing?
"Why are you attacking us?" She asked. Drew, still avoiding her gaze, responded simply. "Orders from the boss of Team Galactic"
"Orders? Team Galactic?" Ash asked, gripping onto a pokeball. He didn't like where this was heading. He threw it, revealing Swellow, who stared down Masquerain.
"Team Galactic! I read about them, they are trying to create a weird new world, by destroying this one" May thought out loud. Drew smiled, and Ash just looked in confusion. 'A new world...'
"Masquerain use Ice Beam!" Drew shouted. Masquerain, sent out a shot of ice, which Swellow easily dodged.
"Swellow let's finish this with the double wing move!" Ash commanded. Swellow smiled. He darted towards Masquerain. One of his wings went in for a direct attack, while the other went in as a blade. The attack caught Masquerain by surprise, knocking him out. Drew growled at Ash.
"I'm not done yet!" He declared arrogantly. He released his Roserade. Swellow glared, remembering the last battle they had. Without waiting for a command, he repeated the attack. It appeared to barely affect Roserade at all.
"Roserade, take out the pipsqueak with a Petal Dance!" Roserade sent out a wave of Petals. However, they were much bigger than the average attack, and it consumed Swellow, who was now unable to see.
"Now, take him out with SolarBeam!" Drew ordered cockily. A whimper was heard from in the hurricane of leaves. When they dispersed, Swellow was laying on the ground. Ash thanked Swellow, and returned him.
"Ash, let me take this jerk down" May said, releasing her Blaziken. Blaziken, growled ferociously at Roserade, who quivered slightly. Drew did not like this.
"Don't be afraid of that fire-chicken! Take it down with..." Drew started. Blaziken, not taking well to being called that, sent out a blaze kick, blasting back Roserade. May smiled, and Ash laughed at Drew. Drew returned his pokemon.
"It's over Drew. If your working with a criminal organization, were going to have to take you to Officer Jenny" May said. Brock, having payed so much attention to the pokenav until now, blasted out of his trance, when he heard that name...
"Officer Jenny! Where? Where?" He asked, jumping up and down like a little kid on Christmas. Ash looked over in pity for the obsessed breeder. His attention, was soon redirected upwards, however, due to a loud sound form above. Ash looked up, seeing a helicoper, that landed right next to them. Drew hopped on, as Ash and May looked up in shock, as the helicopter moved up. Drew, dropped a rose, which May picked up and crushed.
"I can't believe he would do that!" May exclaimed, rushing over to hug Ash. Brock just looked over at both of them.
"Did I miss something..."
May and Ash sweatdropped. May then smirked, ready to get revenge for earlier.
"Yes. Officer Jenny came by. She said something about loving you, but since we didn't want to bother you..." May said, struggling hard not to giggle. Ash nearly choked in laughter. Brock looked up at the sky, and for a second it looked like he would actually cry.
"Such a cruel world! Nobody likes me!" He shouted upwards. Somewhere in Kanto, a pike queen sneezed. Brock sat down, sulking in an imaginary corner. Ash, deciding to take up Max's job, dragged up Brock by the ear. Brock walked, but continued to look down, thinking about his 'lost opportunity'. Soon, enough they reached a giant cave in the way.
"Well, I guess we have to go through here" Ash said. May nodded uneasily, and a few crys of sadness were heard from Brock.
"Ok" May said clinging onto Ash tighter. Brock looked up at the two hugging, and it only made him feel worse. A few sounds were heard while they were inside the cave. But much to May's happiness, it was a quick journey, and they quickly reached the exit. The city they saw, was much smaller than Jubilife. There were a few rows of houses, the fossil museum, a gate southwards, and the gym. Brock looked closely, but didn't see a pokemon center!
"Where is the pokemon center!" He demanded to a young girl who walked past them. She pointed fearfully at Brock's tone to a building, with a sign that said: Rebuilding the Pokemon Center.
"Where's Nurse Joy?" Brock asked to no one in particular. Ash and May sweatdropped, before walking towards the gym. As soon as they got inside, they saw a young boy, with a red helmet on.
"Is one of you here to challange me?" He asked. Ash nodded. "Your a pretty young gym leader" He commented. He grunted, unleashing an Onix.
"Sceptile, get out here!"
"Use Leaf Blade!" Ash commanded. Sceptile charged towards Onix, preparing for a strike with his blades. The gym leader smirked. 'Finally a worthy challenger'
