A week after the shocking events regarding Celebi, on a sunny afternoon, our heroes arrived on Kumquat Island, a tropical vacation paradise with crowded beaches and huge hotels. "Finally, that was a long swim!" Gyarados thought. "And Daisy had a bad day yesterday, she kept nagging, is she having her period or something? I'm glad I can finally rest in my Poke Ball!" Gyarados thought, as Misty returned the Pokemon to said ball.
"What shall we do now?" Tracey asked. The Pokemon Watcher was wearing his red swimming trunks, while Misty and Daisy wore respectively a black bikini and a pink one-piece swimsuit.
"How about a calm beach day again?" Daisy suggested.
"You've been sunbathing on Gyarados's back all morning!" Misty moaned. "And besides, you promised me that we would team up to battle Luana, so let's pay her a visit!"
"Hey, we should go to the Pokemon Center and inform Professor Oak about what happened!" Tracey suggested.
"There's no need to do that, Professor Ivy must've already explained everything," Daisy complained.
"We're going and that's final! I want to show him my new sketch of Misty's Feraligatr!" Tracey snapped.
"Okay, okay, fine..." Daisy moaned. "I never saw him this pushy towards me so far, but I suppose this is important to him," she thought.
And so, five minutes later, our heroes saw on the phone how Ash's Bayleef gave the professor another Headbutt. "Hi Tracey, Daisy and Misty! How are you doing?"
"Fine, Professor, how about you?" Misty asked.
"Not so good, Bayleef broke one of my ribs some days ago..." the professor complained.
"Well, you should call Ash and tell him to take Bayleef with him!" Tracey suggested.
"I tried, but he just wants his Kalos-native Pokemon now..." the professor moaned. "Bayleef is stuck here... Anyways, why did you three call me?"
"Well, we have a lot to tell you about the GS Ball mystery," Tracey said. "Did you talk to Professor Ivy about it yet?"
"No, I wasn't home that much, I was in the hospital, thanks to Bayleef... Ugh..." Oak said.
"Well, it all started when we reached the deserted island with the shrine where we could put the GS Ball in. There, two Team Rocket agents stole the GS Ball and put it in the shrine themselves. Celebi came out of it and immediately got caught and put to sleep by an Ivysaur from one of the Team Rocket members, to prevent him from time-travelling. Then, they went to their hideout," Daisy explained. Then, at a louder tone, she went on. "We went to Ascorbia Island, where we saw a big fire. We thought that was the hideout."
"I see. But that wasn't the hideout?" the professor asked. "Celebi? How did he get in the GS Ball? I thought that thing was ancient," he thought, referring to the short journey to the future he made with Celebi forty years ago.
"No, it wasn't. Anyways, I went in the burning building to save Celebi, but collapsed. Everyone thought I died, but then, a wild Croconaw saved my life. Then, he fell for my Vaporeon," Misty answered. "After I got saved, Tracey heard two Team Rocket members talking behind the bushes, saying how Celebi was safely kept asleep in the real hideout on Butwal Island. So we went there."
"Wow, that must've been painful, Misty! Are you alright now?" Samuel Oak asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine, all thanks to that awesome Pokemon!" the redhead said.
"Anyways, there, we battled many Team Rocket members," Tracey said. "My Venomoth evolved, Daisy's Oddish was able to beat someone, and Misty's Vaporeon did very well too. And that wild Croconaw kept following us because he loves Vaporeon, and he also helped. Without him, we would've never even made it so far, because he's the one who opened the door of the hideout."
"That's awesome! That Croconaw sounds pretty strong to me," the professor said.
"Indeed! Anyways, we reached the research room, where Team Rocket leader Giovanni was looking at the progress made with Celebi. He told us the mystery about the GS Ball. It was an evil device developed by Team Rocket in the sixties and seventies, used to make it harder for people to get their stolen Pokemon back. They built two shrines, one in Johto and one on that deserted island, only those shrines can open the GS Ball. Years after Celebi got back from his journey of forty years to the future, he got caught in the GS Ball and has been stuck there ever since," Misty explained.
"Time journey? Forty year to the future? There's no doubt that they mean that time journey with me!" the professor thought.
There, I tried to battle him with Vaporeon, and Croconaw joined. Then, he evolved into a Feraligatr and finished off all opponents with ease. Then, we freed Celebi, who travelled back to the past to be safe. When we got out of the hideout, Feraligatr was still following us and chose me to be his trainer," Misty ended her story.
"I have a confession to make. Misty, do you remember seeing Celebi some months ago in a forest in Johto, with that boy named Sammy?" Oak asked.
"Yeah, of course, why do you ask?" Misty answered the question with another question.
"Misty, I am that boy you saw back then, I am Sammy! Forty years ago, Celebi took me with him when he travelled forward in time to escape a hunter!" Samuel Oak explained. "That's why I know so much about Celebi and Suicune. Look, I even have this sketch here of Celebi and Ash's Pikachu I made back then!"
"Really? Back then, I thought you had a lot in common with Professor Oak, but I never realized that he actually was you from the past!" Misty said.
"Well, that makes sense. Anyways, thank you so much for saving Celebi from those crooks!" the professor said.
"You're welcome," Daisy said arrogantly, taking all honour for something the entire group was responsible for.
"Would you like to see my Feraligatr?" Misty asked.
"And how about my sketch?" Tracey asked enthusiastically. "Vaporeon is on it as well!" And so, while the crocodile came out of his Poke Ball, the professor saw the drawing where Vaporeon gave the male Water-type a gentle kiss on his belly.
"Wow, that's an accurate sketch! And Misty, your Feraligatr looks really strong! Nice!" Professor Oak complimented.
"Gatr!" the Water-type said kindly.
"Well, I have to go to the hospital again for a check-up, bye!" Professor Oak said.
"Bye," our heroes said simultaneously, before the professor turned off the phone.
Twenty minutes later, our heroes reached the hotel where Luana's Gym would be. As they got out of the elevator, they saw the gray battlefield, where Luana was waiting for another opponent. "Hi, it's nice to see you again!" Misty said.
"Nice to see you too, Misty! And I see Tracey is with you! Who is that other girl?" the overweight, red-haired woman asked.
"I'm Daisy, and I'm her older sister. I'm Kanto's best fashion model! Would you like a signature?"
"Ehhh... No, thanks. Where I come from, I'd rather just start battling instead of talking. So which of you is here to challenge me?" Luana asked.
"Well, we're not here for a Badge, but I want to team up with Misty as a tag team, while you use two Pokemon. I want to see if she and I have battling chemistry or not, and I heard you're really good at Double Battles," Daisy explained.
"Sounds fine to me, but be prepared to lose!" Luana teased with a high-pitched voice.
"Oddish, I choose you!" Daisy said, while the baby Pokemon came out of his Poke Ball. Meanwhile, Misty chose her Pokemon too. "Gatr!" the crocodile roared, showing energy and passion.
"Alakazam and Marowak, I choose you!" Luana shouted. "Begin!"
"Oddish, attack that Marowak with your Sleep Powder!" Daisy tried. However, the powder got stopped by a barrier.
"Alakazam, take the attack for Marowak and use your Reflect!" Luana shouted. "And then, Marowak, use your Bonemerang on Oddish!" The Grass-type jumped on Daisy's command, but forgot that the Water-type stood just behind him, causing the crocodile to get hit on his right leg.
"That wasn't good teamwork!" Luana sneered. "Daisy, you made Oddish jump, but didn't realize that it made the attack hit Feraligatr straight on his leg!"
"Sorry, Misty," Daisy groaned.
"Don't apologise to me, apologise to Feraligatr," Misty said.
"I'm sorry, Feraligatr," Daisy said, looking at the Pokemon who put his hands around his knee. Then, the Pokemon stood up again and showed Daisy a thumb, indicating everything was fine.
"Feraligatr, use your Ice Punch on Alakazam!" Misty commanded. Then, Daisy added an attack. "Oddish, Razor Leaf on Alakazam too!" And so, the crocodile ran at the Psychic-type, severely hurting the opponent with his icy fist, but ended up getting struck by some leaves from Oddish as well. "Ferali... Gatr..." the Pokemon muttered.
"Daisy, we need to work as a team! You can't keep getting Feraligatr attacked every time!" Misty snapped.
"Why? You attack with Feraligatr, I attack with Oddish, what's wrong with that?" Daisy asked.
"She really doesn't get it..." Tracey thought. "She's so self-centered, why can't Daisy just work together? This is about more than stealing the show and doing everything yourself! And is her Oddish really that strong? Not really..."
"We need to work together! We should make sure our Pokemon don't hurt each other, that's the least thing we could do!" Misty said.
"How?" Daisy asked.
"Just look at how Luana's Alakazam protected Marowak, so Marowak could use Bonemerang safely. Or let our Pokemon attack together,' Misty suggested. Then, she whispered in Daisy's ear. "We should take out Alakazam first, he protects Marowak all the time. Then we can beat Marowak when he's vulnerable."
"Okay then, Oddish, use your Razor Leaf on Alakazam!" Daisy tried. However, Reflect was able to block the leaves.
"Feraligatr, burst through that Reflect with your Brick Break!" Misty commanded. The Water-type ran at the Psychic-type, breaking his wall and punching the Psychic-type in the face. Then, both the leaves and then punch damaged the opponent even further.
"Alakazam, Reflect again! And Marowak, use your Bone Rush on Feraligatr's right leg!" Luana commanded. Behind the wall of protection, Marowak was able to safely aim his bone. However, this time, he got stopped.
"Oddish, Seed Bomb on that bone!" Daisy shouted. The attack struck the item thrown by the Ground-type opponent, causing it to be hurled back at Marowak, who got hit on his head.
"Awesome, she finally gets it!" Tracey thought. "That's a good way to protect Feraligatr and still attack by herself."
"Nice, Daisy! Now that is teamwork!" Misty complimented. "Now it's my turn!" Then, she looked at her Pokemon. "Feraligatr, throw Oddish behind Alakazam's back!"
"Oddish, Seed Bomb Alakazam once you can hit him!" Daisy commanded. And so, the Grass-type was hurled into the air. And so, Alakazam's Reflect wasn't able to stop Oddish from hitting his back, as the psychic wall was only in front of him. "Alaka... Zam..." the Pokemon moaned before collapsing.
"Amazing! Now Marowak is a prey without Alakazam's protection!" Tracey thought, while Luana returned her defeated Pokemon to her Poke Ball.
"WAK!" the Ground-type squealed in fear, as he saw Feraligatr's daunting face right in front of him. "Gatr!" the Water-type screamed, just before releasing an insane amount of power and pressure in his Hydro Pump, smashing the Pokemon with the bone against the wall, putting an end to the battle.
"Marowak, no!" Luana screamed. However, her voice got calmer quickly. "You did your best. Come on, have some rest."
"Daisy, that was awesome!" Misty complimented. "You really learned how to be a team player today!"
"Yeah, so now I'm a better model and a better battler than you!" Daisy teased.
"You two really impressed me!" Luana complimented. "I thought you two were a horrible team at first, but you two improved during the battle and had a nice strategy! Congratulations! As a prize, you three can all stay in my hotel for one night, for free."
"Thanks!" Tracey said. "I remember your hotel from the last time we were here, it was awesome!"
"Clearly better than your battling skills," Daisy teased.
"Ehhh... I'll take that as a compliment," Luana laughed.
And so, after dinner, our heroes were enjoying the luxury of the big hotel. While Misty was playing with her Pokemon in the jacuzzi, Tracey and Daisy were sitting on the big two-person bed of their hotel room. "Tracey, that battle was awesome! I always thought battling was a little silly, but this feels so damn good!" Daisy said.
"Yeah, the sweet taste of victory!" Tracey said.
"I'm starting to understand why battling at the Gym is different from battling like this," she admitted. "Opponents like Luana are way stronger than the weaklings who challenge the Cerulean Gym."
"Are you gonna let her go?" he asked.
"I'm leaning towards that, but Lily and Violet wouldn't take that very lightly. I'm not sure if they like Dorian... I haven't called them for some weeks now, and I also prefer having Misty at the Gym to do my chores," the blonde-haired Sensational Sister doubted.
"Yeah, but can't you do those chores yourself?" the Pokemon Watcher suggested.
"What? Me? Can you see me doing the laundry and cleaning the Gym like a housemaid? Come on, I'm way too good for that!" Daisy snapped.
"Okay, okay, sorry," Tracey said. "I suppose I can help a bit and do it together with Dorian."
"Thanks," Daisy said, while giving Tracey a sensual cheek kiss. "It's just so hard... I see how happy Misty is to be travelling, and I don't want to take it away from her, but I also don't want to screw up for Violet and Lily..."
"Well, you do need to make a decision soon," Tracey said. "We'll visit Pummelo Island in a week from now, and then go to Hamlin Island one day later, and then it's time to go back to Cerulean City..."
"Yeah... I'm really enjoying all this a lot! Spending time with you is always nice, and I got an awesome Oddish. And I finally understand why Misty is nagging so much, and even have a better bond with her! It's so nice that I can see her happy again after seeing a depressed wreck for months at the Gym!" Daisy said. "Thank you so much!"
"Daisy, let your heart speak! I think you want to let Misty go off and travel," Tracey noticed. "Make the right decision!"
A few seconds later, the phone in the hotel room rang. "Hello, this is me, Prima, can I speak to Misty?" the purple-haired woman asked.
"Hi, and of course, I'll get her!" Tracey said.
"Where is she now?" Prima asked Daisy, while Tracey informed Misty about the phonecall.
"She's playing with her Pokemon in the jacuzzi," Daisy said, while Misty walked into the hotel room, wearing her black bikini and a white towel like a skirt. "Hi, Prima, it's nice to hear from you again! How did you know we were here?"
"Well, Luana called me and suggested me to battle you. We already battled once, but how would you like another battle?"
"Are you serious? This is awesome!" the aspiring Water Master Pokemon said. "Where will we do this?"
"How about Pummelo Stadium, exactly one week from now, next Thursday?" Prima suggested.
"Awesome! We're going there anyways, and if the stadium is free, we can battle in an amazing atmosphere!" Misty fangirled. "This is so awesome!" Then, she looked at her friends. "Tracey, Daisy, are you two okay with this?"
"Sure," Tracey said.
"Of course, I wouldn't want to take this moment from you," Daisy added to that.
"Wow, thanks!" Misty squealed. Then, she looked at Prima again. "The journey is almost over, only one more week and one day, and then I have to go back to the Gym," she cried, while bursting out into tears. "Thank you so much for giving me a perfect way to end this journey!"
"You're welcome," Prima said. "And hopefully, someday, your sisters will realize how wrong and unfair this is. It's not right to dictate someone's life like that... I know a song that might give you some encouragement, but I want Tracey and Daisy to be gone from this room for that." And so, the two left the room and entered the jacuzzi, so Misty could have some privacy.
"It's a rock song, I'll play it for you now," Prima said, while turning on her CD player. "It's my life, it's now or never!" the singer screamed. "I ain't gonna live forever! I just want to live while I'm alive! It's my life!" the song continued. Then, the purple-haired woman turned off the CD player. "Misty, did you get the message?" she asked, while holding up the CD cover showing singer Jon Bon Jovi and his rocking Starmie.
"Yes, you think I should escape if those three don't let me go... And honestly, I sometimes thought about sneaking out at night as well, but then the Gym might get closed, those three are too lazy to do anything!" Misty said. "And then they're gonna blame me, or even look for me to get me back to the Gym..."
"Well, if you don't escape now, reaching your goal gets harder and harder! It's your life, it's now or never!" Prima shouted.
"Well, sadly, it's not my life," Misty cried. "My sisters control it..."
"I wish I could talk to Daisy and give her a piece of my mind! I'm normally calm, but at this moment, I want to punch her in the face!" Prima snapped.
"Well, she's being a bit nicer lately..." Misty said.
"Yeah, right. She? Nicer? She's just doing that, hoping you'll complain less when she takes you back to the Gym!" Prima snapped.
"Really, she and I even won that tag battle against Luana!" Misty mentioned. "And since the moment Tracey gave her a baby Oddish for her birthday, she became nicer."
"If she'd really be nice, she'd let you go," Prima b*tched.
"True," Misty admitted. "I sometimes wish I was as selfish as my sisters... Then my life would've been much better..."
"Yeah..." Prima said. "Anyways, we should wrap this up now, it's late. You should go to bed too."
"Yeah, I will," Misty agreed. "Thank you so much, I'm happy to know that there's someone who understands my situation and cares. Bye!"
Then, Tracey and Daisy came in. "Misty, I have to do a phonecall now, and this time, I want full privacy with only Tracey," Daisy shouted. And so, Misty went to the bedroom. "Good night," she said.
And so, another phonecall started. One that Misty wasn't going to hear anymore. "Hi Tracey and Daisy, nice to hear from you two again," a blue-haired girl said. A pink-haired one stood next to her.
"Nice to see you two again as well," Daisy said. "Anyways, I realize now that what we've been doing to Misty is wrong, and I really want to just let her keep travelling. But that would also mean we would lose our slave, so I wanted to know how you two feel about that."
"Well, Dorian is much nicer than he was at first. He's doing almost all the chores now and doesn't seem to have a problem with it," Lily said. "And Tracey can always help too if you ask him nicely, right?"
"Sure, if I get a sexy kiss from Daisy everytime I do a chore," Tracey said.
"I don't know..." Violet moaned. "Having Misty around is really convenient, she does anything we tell her to, Dorian isn't that easy..."
"By the way, why is Lily naked, is Dorian hiding himself under a blanket and are you wearing only that robe you quickly put on to not be naked when calling us?"
"Ehhh... We weren't expecting a phonecall," Violet admitted. "We were kinda experimenting, like we've been doing all he time since Dorian is here."
"So are you okay with Dorian replacing Misty and Misty being allowed to travel, yes or no?" Daisy asked.
"Alright then, Dorian is too hot to let go," Lily gushed.
"Awesome!" Dorian said. "I love this job, and I love my threesome with Lily and Violet!"
"Misty will be very grateful to you, thanks for saving her dream!" Daisy laughed. "Bye!"
"Bye!" the threesome said simultaneously. "We're gonna have some more fun!"
"Thanks for making me see the light, Tracey!" Daisy complimented. "Shall we tell Misty next morning?"
"I think I have a better idea, let's surprise her when the journey is over and she thinks she has to get back to the Gym," Tracey suggested. "Anyways, Daisy, I think you made a mature and unselfish decision. I'm very proud of you! I love you!"
"I love you too," Daisy said. And so, the two passionately kissed.
