Year of the Ships- Greeneyesshipping

A/N- Hi! So so so very sorry for the delay, but I was sick, and basically just sepnt two days drinking tea, eating soup, and looking at stuff on Pinterest... So, extra long chapter for you guys! Yay!

Yes, I know Green eyes shipping isn't too common, but I just love it. If Pokeshipping wasn't the most awesome thing in the world, it'd be my OTP. It just works. Also, this is going to be an AU where Misty is a young recruit to Team Rocket and she is assigned to James.

Before I start, I have an idea. I'd like to do monthly themes for the chapters, like one month of basically Team Rocket stuff, then a bunch of Ash shippings for the next month. What do you guys want?

Anyway, enjoy!

"Ms. Kasumi? You're assigned to... Mr. Kojiro. Huh. Well, this oughta be interesting." Viper, one of the Team Rocket assignment guys, pointed Misty in the right direction, then went on to one of the next new recruits.

Misty looked her new boss over before she approached him. He seemed nice enough, cuddling a little Mime Jr. affectionately, but nice wasn't usually a word in the Team Rocket dictionary.

"Sir, Misty reporting for duty, sir!" She barked, just like she had been taught to in Rocket school. Mr. Kojiro smiled.

"Just call me James." He said. Misty nodded.

"Yes, sir, James!" She said again. James shook his head.

"Well, whatever. Let's get going, then. We've got work to do."

"You... You... You just follow a kid around all day?" Misty asked, staring at the four kids walking down the dirt path. James nodded, a tear forming in his emerald eyes.

"Just like I used to do with Jessie..." He mumbled. Misty looked at him.

"Sir? Are you crying?" She asked. James hastily scrubbed away the tear.

"Nonononononono! Just... Ah... Reminiscing." He corrected. Misty shook her head.

"Your 'reminiscing' is going to get us caught." She said boldly. James smiled.

"You're right. Let's stalk these kids! He yelled. The kids stared at the bush they were hiding in, and Misty hastily pulled James down. She was really starting to wish she had gotten Butch instead.

"How did you become a Team Rocket member, anyway?" She muttered, grabbing her Rattata's pokeball.

"What made you join Team Rocket, anyway?" James asked, munching on half of a burrito. Misty looked up, shocked.

"Why?" She asked quickly, taking another onion out of her half. She hated onions. James shrugged.

"I don't know. Just trying to get to know my new partner." He defended himself. Misty looked back down at her burrito.

"Oh. Well... I guess it was my sisters. They always called me the runt of the family., I knew I had to prove to them that I was the most powerful, that I was stronger than they were." She said darkly.

James nodded in understanding. "I joined because of family too. My parent were forcing me into a marriage with a horrible girl named Jessiebelle." Misty's eyes widened in horror.

"J-Jessiebelle?" She asked. "I met a girl named Jessiebelle who was looking for her fiance, named James." She said shakily. "She was... Crazy. I don't blama ya for joining Team Rocket. Also, she has a message for you." Misty said. James started trembling.

"W-what is it?" He asked. Misty cocked a brow in confusion.

"Something about teaching you how to run away properly." She said. James squeaked.

"Eeep! Er, uh, I mean..." He deepened his voice. "Eeep." He said in a more manly voice. Misty giggled.

"Whatever, James." She yawned. "Can we go to sleep? I'm exhausted, and, quite frankly, I still feel that thunderbolt." She said. James smiled.

"Yes, of course." He said, dragging a blue sleeping bag out of his backpack. "Just bring out your sleeping bag-"

"My sleeping bag? Viper told me you'd have one for me." She said, crossing her arms. James sighed.

"He didn't tell me that..." He sighed, staring at his own. "Take mine." He said, shoving it towards her. She shook her head.

"Where will you sleep?" Misty asked. James motioned to the ground

"Here. I've slept in worse places before, but you haven't, and I can't have my new partner breaking her back on the first day." He said kindly. Misty smiled.

"Thank you." She said gratefully, climbing into his sleeping bag. James smiled back.

"No problem."

A/N-Yeah, it's a bit short, but it's 2x longer than it was going to be. I hope you don't mind. I'm starting a new thing for the end, too. It's called: Reactions! I'm gonna try it out for today, and, if you guys like it, I'll keep doing it.

Misty- Me? And James? As in Team Rocket James? Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeww! Why, StylizedKeyboard? Why?

James- The girl twerp isn't really my type, though I do have a thing for fiery redheads. Just... Not her...

Misty- *puking* Whyyyyyyyyy? So... Gross! Why?

Yeah, so it'll basically be the two characters reactions to the ship that I wrote. Hope you enjoyed! Until next time!
