I woke to the sound of a shrill laugh and mentally groaned. I lay in bed for a moment; waiting to hear the cry I knew was coming.
"Pikachu!" Ash yelled. Yup, there it was. I sighed before pulling myself hurriedly from my covers and dashing out of the tent. Sure enough, a large hot air balloon drifted slowly through the air above us, a very annoyed looking yellow mouse being held in a large rubber glove coming from the bottom of its basket.
"Pika pi!" the little pokemon cried to its master as the three in the basket laughed happily. I shook my head as they rehearsed there usual chant. I wonder sometimes whether they would make an easier get away if they didn't bother with the stupid thing and just left. Well, I wasn't going to tell them.
"Give me back Pikachu!" Ash cried angrily as he looked hopelessly up at the balloon. May and Max stood next to him and Brock was on the other side of camp where it seemed he had been making breakfast. I frowned. I was hungry. Calling out Absol as the others had their usual banter with team rocket and Pikachu tried zapping the glove a few times, I smiled down at him. Remembering the dream, my smile faltered for a second before reviving again and I looked back up at the balloon. Should I have Absol burst the balloon or free Pikachu? I supposed it would be a good idea to free Pikachu. I didn't know if the little mouse would be released or not if I just burst the balloon.
"Absol, use razor wind on the glove Pikachu is in, but make sure not to hit him." I told my pokemon quietly. He smiled and nodded before allowing the horn on his head to light up and unleashing a razor wind a lot less powerful than usual. It was enough to break the glove but not enough that it would be too hard to control and he would hit Pikachu. I was impressed. "Well done!" I congratulated him with a look of surprise as Pikachu fell from the balloon and the three team rocket member's faces fell.
"Who did that?" Jessie demanded. I smirked.
"That would be me." I told her happily. She glared at me.
"But we caught Pikachu fair and square! Why can't you just let us get away?" James cried in annoyance, his Mime Jr sitting on the edge of the basket, copying his every move. I giggled slightly.
"Because Pikachu belongs to Ash. You can't catch a pokemon if they already have an owner." But then I paused and looked nervously down at Absol. "Unless they want to be caught again…" I finished. Absol looked at me strangely before smiling. I guess he had realised I knew about his past owner. Meowth scoffed.
"So? We're team rocket! We can do what we want!" He told us, pointing at me as he growled. I shrugged.
"If you say so." I told him before grinning and turning to Absol. "Razor wind Absol, full power." I commanded. He grinned.
"Sol." The pokemon agreed before throwing his head back and releasing his strongest razor wind. To my surprise it was even stronger than yesterdays and team rocket stood no chance, screaming loudly before flying off into the air. I smirked slightly as I heard them cry 'we're blasting off again' as they flew away.
"Wow, thanks Sammy!" Ash exclaimed, walking over to me with Pikachu held tightly in his arms. I smiled.
"Happy to be of service." I told him with a smile before bowing in an over the top manner. He laughed and I joined him, giggling as I stood up straight.
"Breakfasts ready guys!" Brock called from the table where he stood. I grinned before racing over, Ash and May hot on my heels. Breakfast, as usual, was delicious. How could I expect any less from Brock? It didn't take us long to finish the food off and soon we were moving again, heading in the direction of the nearest town where Ash would face his next gym battle. I had wondered whether or not to challenge the gym leader as well and finally decided that yes, I would. But I needed some more pokemon… maybe I could borrow some of the other's pokemon for a bit… first I would find out what pokemon I would need.
After an hour or so of walking, with me pondering on what pokemon I would need for ach type, our little group came across a small house surrounded by eggs and baby pokemon. It was an amazing sight and we all gaped at it for a moment. There was so much hustle and bustle going on with a few people cleaning eggs and playing with pokemon. I had never seen anything like it.
"Can we have a look? Please?" I pleaded, looking at Brock with puppy eyes. He smiled before nodding and, giving into my childish side, I ran towards the place. One of the men playing with a baby Seedot looked up at me and smiled, picking up the little pokemon before walking over to me. He was tall with light brown hair and sapphire blue eyes. he was very handsome as he greeted me warmly.
"Hello, are you new around here?" he asked me with a wink. I blushed slightly before nodding.
"Yeah, I've never been here before. What is this place?" I asked him, looking around at the bright pokemon playing before my attention was caught by the cute little Seedot in the man's arms. I stroked it affectionately before giggling slightly as it nuzzled my hands.
"Wow, it looks like that Seedot really likes you." May said from behind me. I turned to look at her with a smile before watching as the others made their way over.
"You seem to have an affinity with pokemon." Brock said thoughtfully. "Remember how quickly Absol warmed up to you?" he continued. I grinned. That was cool. The man looked at me in curiosity before smiling.
"If that's true then you should follow me. The old man will want to see you." He told me before walking towards the house. I looked at May who shrugged before following him up the path.
