A/N: I'm so proud at the way that the last chapter came out! And I actually was rummaging through my closet and found the game Twister. It sparked my interest and I forced my friends to play giving me the idea!

International Espionage
Normal POV
Norman stood at the door to the plane and turned back around. "This is a very important event. That means there will be a lot of paparazzi. Don't be intimidated and just have fun with it. You kids will go straight to the fund raiser which is about a block away and I will check us all into a hotel." Norman instructed. The boys looked kind of confused seeing as they weren't used to the lifestyle that thee girls have. Norman looked to his daughters. "Watch them."
"Hey!" The boys complained.
"We'll make sure they don't do anything stupid, reckless, or immature." Misty listed off.
"Guess that means that Ash is going to have to be a mute for the day." Paul snickered.
"Hey!" Ash shouted.
"Stop fighting. Let's just get there and get this over with." Sydney sighed.
"Wow you REALLY don't want to do this do you?" Jesse asked.
"Nope."
"Get over it. Now let's go!" May said enthusiastically.
The group headed off the steps to the plane. "You only say that because you don't have to be the distraction this time." Sydney challenged.
"You know me so well." May laughed.
As soon as they were down the steps a swarm of paparazzi came and started taking pictures. The boys were surprised but the girls just smiled and continued to pull them along.
It took a grand total of ten minutes to get inside the fund raiser. There were crowds of people waiting outside trying to get it.
"Man that line is so long!" Ash complained.
"Way to point out the obvious Ash." Paul snorted.
"Stop arguing you two." Drew chastised.
"But it's going to take FOREVER to get inside!" Jesse sighed. The girls giggled.
"What?" They boys asked.
"Okay now we know a trick to getting inside." May whispered.
"All you boys have to do is hold our hands and follow our lead." Dawn explained.
"And how is this going to help?" Ash asked.
"You'll see." Misty snickered. The boys did what they were told and they all walked up to the security guard.
"Sorry but you need to get in line." The man said.
"No, we'll just be heading inside." Misty spoke confidently.
"I said you need to wait on line."
"And we said we're going in." Dawn retorted.
"Are you going to make me get my superior out here?"
"Yup, that would be nice." May smiled. The man looked confused but went to get his superior anyways. He came back with a tall, well built with shaggy red hair and blue eyes. He smiled at the girls.
"Yo! Sup Lennie?" Sydney asked bumping fists with the man.
"Nothing much Syd. What are you girls doing here?" Lennie asked.
"Well…we WERE trying to get inside but someone isn't letting us pass." Misty explained. Lennie glared at the other security guard.
"Don't you know these are the Maples?!" He sighed then pushed past the guard allowing the girls room to get in. "I'm sorry, he's new. But I was sure he would know the V.I.P. list. Go on in and say hello to your father for me!" Lennie called after them.
"Will do Lennie!" May assured.
"You girls are on the V.I.P. list?" Drew asked surprised.
"Yup." May replied.
The group walked into the huge ballroom. The modeling portion of the evening was going to be taking place in a different area of the building. Norman walked in and found them. "It seems there are a lot of people here." He commented. "Girls get a move on."
"Oh my God…" Misty held a strap to her dress.
"What?" Ash asked.
"My dress strap broke." She muttered. Dawn pushed past Ash and inspected the strap showing it was indeed broken. May gasped and wrapped her arms around herself.
"My dress is falling down." She spoke. Dawn looked over at May seeing she was telling the truth.
"What the hell?" Paul asked. "What's with the malfunctions?"
"Yeah, they fit on the plane." Drew added on.
"That's so weird." Ash breathed.
Jesse looked at Sydney. "Please don't tell me yours is going to rip too."
She laughed and grabbed the area where the slit was. "Mine's already ripped. I think I'm safe."
"I need my kit to fix it. Daddy can you get it? It's on the plane. Meanwhile you two come with me to the bathroom so I can fix it." Dawn ordered. Norman nodded and turned around trying to hid a smile.
"What do I do?" Sydney asked.
Misty looked at her then the rest of the people in the hall. "Stay here. There had to be at least ONE Maple here."
"And keep them out of trouble." May added on as the three eldest sisters walked away. The four boys and Sydney were quiet for a while.
Sydney took a deep breath. "So…how bout them Knicks?"
In the Bathroom
Misty, May and Dawn all walked into the unoccupied bathroom and smirked. "May I want all cameras down in the office and ballroom area. I don't care if they Aqua, Diva, and Shadow steal. I care if they know that Misty, Dawn, and May Maple aren't in the ballroom at the time of the stealing." Misty ordered. The sisters snapped their fingers and were in their spy outfits.
Misty had on black biker shorts and knee length black combat boots. Her shirt was a short sleeved shirt that stopped just above her belly button.
Dawn's was a black halter top and a black skirt. She had on black sneakers. But the most identifying part of all of their attire. Their hair and eyes. The had each made their hair pin-straight and chin length. Their hair was now silver and their eyes were switched to their natural Sapphire Blue.
May raised her arms and all of the security cameras in the designated areas were knocked down. She smirked. "Too easy."
Dawn looked up and saw an air vent. "Up we go?" Dawn asked. Misty nodded.
"Into the air vent. After that Diva your going to shape shift into James and Shadow and I will follow you in after the guards let you into the office." Misty explained. Dawn used telekinesis to carefully and quietly remove the vent. Dawn flew up on her own followed by May and then finally Misty who used her own telekinesis to replace the vent carefully. They crept along in the cramped space noiselessly. When Dawn made it to the end she looked out and saw that the hallway was barren.
"No one's here. But where's James?" Dawn asked. May looked back at Misty.
"This is his fund raiser. He should be in the ballroom mingling. If he is Sydney would spot him."
Misty nodded and telepathically reached her sister. "Sydney, find James. As soon as your with him and know where he is tell us so we can move ahead with our operation."
"Understood."
Back with the Others
Sydney was talking with the boys when a tall man with neck length blue hair and green eyes approached her. With him was an equally tall woman with long red hair that reached her butt. "Uh, Syd. I think they want you." Jesse said motioning behind her. Sydney fought back a smirk as she could sense whose auras were behind her.
"Misty, I've got em." Sydney said telepathically before turning around. "James! Jessie! It's very good to see you!" She said faking enthusiasm.
"Ah! Sydney! Likewise." James said embracing her in a hug. Jessie leaned over and air kissed the girls cheeks.
"Now where are your other sisters? And your father? Couldn't be that Sydney Maple has gone solo?" Jessie inquired. Sydney smiled.
"Oh, my father is getting Dawn's sewing kit. May and Misty were having wardrobe malfunctions…you know how that goes."
"And who are these gentlemen behind you?" James asked. Sydney turned around and grinned sheepishly.
"Oh! These are our friends. This is Ash Ketchum, Misty's boyfriend. This is Paul Brooks, Dawn's boyfriend. The boy dressed in the white tux is Drew Hayden, May's date for the evening and last but not least is Jesse Anderson. He is my date for this evening." Sydney explained. They boys all said their greetings.
"Your sisters are taking a while. Perhaps I should check on them…" Jessie suggested. Sydney's eyes widened.
"Misty! We've got a situation! Jessie wants to head to the bathroom!"
With the Girls
"Misty, I've got em." Sydney spoke.
"Alright Dawn." Misty gave her sister the go. Dawn opened the vent and hopped down looking exactly like James. Misty and May hopped down and blended in with their surroundings like Chameleons. Dawn walked up to the guards and ordered them to pass and she walked in followed closely by May and Misty.
Dawn dropped the act and May and Misty rematerialized. "May the computer. Dawn and I will search for some files." Misty ordered. May snorted when she looked at the computer security.
"Man this is so pathetic." She shook her head and cracked into the computer in under 10 seconds. She put in a USB port and started downloading all of the files off the computer. She leaned back in the chair and let the computer do it's thing.
Misty and Dawn were taking out files and taking pictures of different documents inside. They were on the bottom of the first file cabinet when Sydney called.
"Misty! We've got a situation! Jessie wants to head to the bathroom!"
"What?! Stall her!" May ordered.
"And how do I do that?!"
"Use your abilities!" Dawn suggested.
"Oh because I'm sure they'd LOVE to see me phase my hand through a wall!"
"I wasn't talking about those abilities…" Dawn retorted.
"Sydney! Sing! Go up onstage and sing! Dance! Strip! I don't care! Distract them!" Misty hissed.
"You guys are SO going to owe me one. I hate singing in public." Sydney whined but never the less cut off communication. You could hear the sound of drums and a guitar floating from the air vents.
"That's my girl." Misty commented.
Back with Sydney
"No!" Sydney blurted out.
"Why not?" Jessie asked a little surprised.
Sydney sucked in a deep breath. "Because I was wondering if I could sing a song for entertainment! I wouldn't want to do it without your permission and it would be an honor to sing in front of the two people who put this fund raiser together." The boys shared a quizzical look.
"I thought you said you-" Ash started but Sydney took a step back pressing her spiked heel into his foot. His face flashed pain and he whimpered.
"What a marvelous idea!" James complimented.
"And I have just the people to help me." Sydney smirked looking at the boys. She dragged them towards the stage. "Ash, your on drums. Paul take base and Drew your on guitar. Jesse…um…well…just stay there and look cute." Sydney ordered.
"That wont be hard at all." Jesse snickered. The other boys rolled their eyes.
"What song are we doing?" Paul asked.
"Runaway, by Avril Lavigne." She spoke quickly. The boys quickly got into their places and Sydney grabbed the microphone. Ash started out with the drum beats. At the first words Sydney sang Drew came in with the guitar.
Got up on the wrong side of life today yeah
Crashed the car and I'm gonna be really late
My phone doesn't work cause it's out of range
Looks like it's just one of those kind of days
You can't kick me down I'm already on the ground
No you can't cause you couldn't catch me anyhow
Blue skies but the sun isn't coming out no
Today it's like I'm under a heavy cloud
And I feel so alive
I can't help myself, don't you realize
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
So, so is how I'm doing if you're wondering
I'm in a fight with the world but I'm winning
Stay there come closer it's at your own risk
Yeah you know how it is life can be a bitch
But I feel so alive
I can't help myself, don't you realize
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
Runaway, runaway...
Runaway, runaway...
Runaway, runaway...
Runaway, run, run away...
Runaway, runaway...
Runaway, run, run away...
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway yeah
I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
I just want to fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and runaway, yeah
Sydney and the boys took a bow from the applauding crowd that had gathered at the beginning of the song. They were in an uproar cheering for an encore.
"You guys out yet?"
Back with the Girls
May had just stuck the USB in her pocket and nodded. "On our way Syd. You did great." Misty complimented.
"Just don't make me do it again." Sydney ordered.
Dawn slipped out again as James and turned a corner to the vent. She flew up into it seeing as it was already opened because May and Misty were inside. She jumped in and let her façade change back. The three crawled through the vents and back into the bathroom. Someone knocked on the door and the girls went back to their dance clothes. Norman opened the door slightly and tossed Dawn he sewing kit to make it look convincing. May tossed him the USB port and Misty handed him the cameras. He smirked and walked out. Dawn snapped her fingers and altered the dresses that she herself had sabotaged.
They walked out and saw Jessie and James talking to Sydney and the boys on the stage. "Um…hey? What's going on?" Misty asked.
Jessie turned to the girls and her and James said their pleasantries. "Your sister just performed a song and we simply MUST hear another." Jessie explained.
"Oh, but she couldn't." Norman said walking up and putting a hand on his youngest daughters back. "She is also going to be the model for our family. We can't have her stealing the show now can we?" Sydney smiled up at her father gratefully.
"Oh! Then we shall see you on the runway! And at the end we'll have a slot for you and your sisters to perform a song for the finale!" James insisted and walked away with Jessie before they could protest.
Dawn laughed. "Alright, now that, that's over with…LET'S GET TO PARTYING!"
They all laughed. Little did they know there were four figures watching them window intently. "Looks like they forgot all about us?" One of them spoke. Another snickered.
"Well, looks like they've found new boy-toys. It's heartbreaking."
"Truly it is. After all we were their first love." A third voice spoke.
The fourth voice laughed evilly. "Why don't re-introduce myself and see if some old sparks will fly?"
The first voice spoke up again. "All in due time. Let them enjoy this evening. It'll be the last time they will be happy. The least we could do is let them have this to themselves."
"Oh are you going soft now?"
"No. I simply don't want to cause anything here. I could care less about those four girls. I just don't want to have such hindrances." They all nodded. "Let's move." And within a second they were all gone into the night.
A/N: Next chapter is the rest of the party and a startling discovery on what the girls have found! What could it be? Will it force the girls to fight? And who are these mysterious figures?
Misty: Your going to kill us.
Me: NO! I would never…
May: You ARE planning to kill us aren't you?!
Me: Well you don't get to find out yet!
Drew: So do we play a significant part in this sad excuse for a story?
Jesse: Oh come on! I like it!
Ash: Yeah! Me too!
Paul: *snorts* You two would.
Dawn: Would you guys quiet arguing? And where the heck is Sydney?
Me: Well…Sydney is a character based off of me. So if I were in her EXACT situation I would be…oh dear lord someone check the back exit.
Sydney: *trying to escape* Damn it! How'd you find me?
Drew: Well Jacki is pretty much you so it wasn't hard.
Sydney: Oh…anyways REVIEW!!!!
Me: Yes, If I don't get reviews I will feel as if no one wants to read my story and be eternally depressed and stop writing.
May: And we don't want that!
Dawn: Yeah! We get cute outfits in this story!
Misty: And we're badass!
Sydney: And you three are in love with Drew, Paul, and Ash.
May, Misty and Dawn: Yeah! And we're- SYDNEY GET BACK HERE!
Sydney: *Runs* Jacki save me!
Me: You're based off of me. You're not REALLY me.
Ash: She's got a point.
Jesse: But if she is based off of you then wouldn't you be thinking the same thing?
Misty, May and Dawn: *stops running* JACKI!
Me: Jesse I hate you! Review!!!!! *Runs away from eldest Maple sisters!*
