Chapter 20: Team rockets first attack finale part 1!

-Few minutes before the end of the previous chapter-

Sarah and Pikachu were watching everything that happened in the last minutes of Absol and Meowth's battle.

"Go Meowth!" Sarah cheered seeing Meowth's paws turned to the color she is familiar with.

Pikachu; seeing everything from Sarah's shoulder became very interested in Sarah's Meowth especially when he saw the scratch-cat Pokemon use thunder-ball attack earlier.

"Pikachu!"

"What is it Pikachu?"

"Pika Pikachu pikaka?"

"Oh, you want to know what attack Meowth used?" Sarah asked knowing Pikachu had just said, because she is Ash's daughter she had some sort of bond towards her dad's Pikachu.

"Pika!" the electric-mouse Pokemon said, nodding his head.

"Let me see…I think he used double edge attack."

"Pikaka chu?" Pikachu asked not believing her, he knows that attack but he can't believe that attack is that attack. (I know it's confusing)

"I know it's hard to explain but my dad taught me something before I left pallet a year ago."

"Pika pi?"

"I…it's…uhm." Sarah answered thinking hard, she can't seem to remember. "I forgot Pikachu sorry."

Pikachu; after hearing this fell from Sarah shoulder anime style, after a few seconds Pikachu got up with big sweat-droplets on his small mouse face.

"Pikaaaa…"

"I'm really sorry Pikachu; I guess I really forgot hehe."

Suddenly Pikachu and Sarah saw Meowth used two thunder-ball attacks towards Flygon and Absol which caused a small explosion; this event caused Sarah and Pikachu to cheer.

"Yehey Meowthsy did it!" Sarah cheered.

"Pika Pika!" Pikachu cheered joining Sarah in cheering Meowth.

But their cheering stopped when they saw the same remote control which they saw earlier when James pushed several buttons on it.

"Oh no!" Sarah said while panicking; she doesn't want to experience another problem.

When James pushed the button; (meaning the lightning bolt shaped one) two rubber hands grabbed Pikachu from Sarah's shoulder.

"Pikachu!" Sarah said trying to hold on to Pikachu the gloves are to strong so Pikachu got carried away. After reaching the end side of the glass cylinder the rubber gloves stopped leaving Pikachu stuck in the corner of the cylinder, then two small electric suction cups appeared which each other connected in each of Pikachu's red cheeks and began to suck electricity from Pikachu. (Like the first encounter of Ash and May with team rocket in the first episode of Pokemon advance series.)

"Pikachu!" Sarah said while going to where Pikachu is and trying to release him from his gloved prison.

Sarah tried to as hard as she could but the gloves are just too stuck, then the metal flooring of the cylinder started to generate electricity then after a few seconds it created a small amount of electricity which cause Sarah to shout in pain.

"D-ad h-elp me!" Sarah shouted while feeling electricity run thru her small body.

-Back to Ash, May and Meowth-

"Sarah!" Ash May and Meowth yelled in unison their eyes widen at what they saw.

They saw Pikachu being grabbed by two rubber gloves from Sarah then after some fast events they saw Sarah being electrocuted/shocked by small but deadly yellow electricity, then they saw the other cylinder which carried Brock and Dawn started to light up just like the other one.

"No, I can't believe what I'm seeing." May said in disbelief, gripping tighter into Ash's arm for more support and protection while small tears appearing on her sapphire eyes.

"Team rocket stop this right no!" Ash yelled. "And give me back my friends!"

"In your dreams twerp!" James shouted back; after a few more seconds he quickly pushed the button again to deactivate the machine; he knew that no human can take electricity for too long.

"James! You'll going to pay for what you've done!" Meowth shouted in frustration while running as fast as his two greaved cat-feet can take him with his claws glowing ready to strike the member of team rocket.

When Meowth only has few meters away from James and his remote, Roserade blocked his path; it seems that the plant-type Pokemon got out of his paralysis.

"Get out of my way 'flower boy'!" Meowth yelled changing his target.

Meowth didn't reached the plant-type Pokemon because the plant-type slammed his bouquet-like hands in the ground; which caused thick vines to grow out where Meowth is running at, this attack caused the scratch-cat Pokemon to get ensnared/caught in the big vines.

"Crap, frenzy plant!" Meowth said after being caught by the thick vines. "I didn't know that 'flower boy' can use frenzy plant!"

"We always have a trick in our sleeve!" Jessie said in a mocking voice.

"Hey jess," James whispered. "We too didn't know that Roserade can use frenzy plant either."

After hearing this Jessie quickly stomped on James right feet which caused the latter to cry out in pain but was quickly silenced by Jessie.

"You didn't have to do that jess." James whispered after a few seconds but he still feels the pain in his right foot.

"Just keep quiet James." Jessie answered back not looking thru James but instead keep her focus on their comrade Meowth which is lying on her arms still unconscious. "What happened to the man I saw earlier?"

"What do you mean?"

"U-uh just forget about what I said." Jessie said looking into James with a small tint of pink in coming across her cheeks.

"I don't believe you jess, what it that you mean 'man'?"

"Rose!" the plant-type Pokemon shouted trying to get the attention of the two rocket members.

"There is no time for this James, Roserade needs us!"

"Right!"

"Okay Roserade use solarbeam!" Jessie commanded with her winning yet disturbing smile.

The plant-types bouquet like hands started to glow even brighter gathering even more sunlight complying with Jessie's order.

"Oh no, I must get out of here!" Meowth said panicking; he tried to move/wiggle/squirm his body to see if there is any other way to get out but to no avail.

"We have to do something May!" Ash said, he began to get worried about Meowth's situation. 'We have to use our Pokemon!"

"Right Ash." May answered agreeing on Ash's suggestion.

When Ash and May began to get their respective Pokeballs from their belt/fanny pack but unfortunately James quickly saw what they are trying to do.

"Don't even try to help him twerps!" James shouted in an angry voice. "Or else you want to see little Sarah and friends get electrocuted again!"

"No Mr. Ketchum don't!" Meowth shouted from his current location which is a few feet in the air with the usual vines ensnaring him. "I don't want to see Sarah get hurt again."

After hearing this Ash and May complied stopping at what they are trying to do but the latter just gritted his teeth in frustration.

'I must get Sarah and Pikachu out of there!' gritting his teeth in frustration. 'But how?'

But a sudden banging caused Ash to break away from his thoughts; it seems that Dawn began to pound on the glass cylinder with more effort.

"Team rocket get me out of here!" Dawn shouted while banging in the glass cylinder, it seems that she and Brock received that same treatment as Sarah because most of Dawn's clothing and hair seems to be out of shape. "When I get my hands on you three…I'll make sure that you three will pay for what you've done to my clothes!"

"Stop it Dawn." Brock calmly said still sitting from behind Dawn, he too got the same treatment but he kept on the battle. "It's pretty useless right now, we can't use any of our Pokemon since our Pokeballs won't open because of something in this compartment were in."

"I know but I just can't stand here helplessly while Ash May and Meowth got hurt in the battle." Dawn answered feeling useless for the moment which caused her to sob while small tears escaping her eyes.

'Don't worry Dawn." Brock said while putting his left hand on Dawn's right shoulder to give comfort/assurance to the Sinnoh-native. "I'm sure Ash and May will think of something besides Sarah's Meowth is with them."

"I guess your right Brock, thanks Brock." Dawn said giving a small smile, turning she look towards Ash and May then she said something hoping that Ash can understand.

"Come on Ash do something!"

-Back to Ash and May-

Reading Dawn's lips, Ash quickly understood what Dawn said which was silenced by the sound proof glass.

'Come on Ash do something!" Ash thought understanding what Dawn said.

'I know I have to do something!' Ash thought, he gave a quick glance on everywhere. 'But what? We can't do anything unless we destroyed that remote.'

Ash thoughts once again got broken when he saw Roserade fire a white beam of pure sunlight towards the ensnared Meowth which caused a small explosion.

"Meowth!" Ash and May shouted in unison, afraid of the scratch cat's condition.

Meowth who just felt the attack without any defense caused him to fall in the ground fast.

'Crap I s-should h-have p-r-prepared for this.' Meowth thought while falling after the explosion, he kept his consciousness in every possible his feline body can keep.

Meowth continued to stand with major difficulty but still manage to stand up.

"I can't let you team rocket get away with this!" Meowth shouted panting heavily, after managing to fully stand up with of course many difficulties. "If I go down, I might as well go down fighting!"

"I admire your determination gloved Meowth but you see, you have no ways to win in your current condition!" Jessie said with a smug on her face, for once in many years in following Ash, this is her team to win against the 'twerps'. "Okay Roserade, use your flowery hands to good use, now use focus punch

Roserade after hearing what Jessie ordered; complying pretty quickly and rushed towards the standing yet heavily panting Meowth.

Meowth tried to move his arms but to no avail; it seems that he used all of his remaining energy just trying to stand up from Roserade's attack.

'It seems that…I'm pretty helpless and vulnerable now.' Meowth thought while panting still trying to move his arms to defend himself but to no avail.

"Rose!" the plant-type shouted while giving multiple clean punches on the scratch-cat Pokemon. Using his glowing bouquet-like fist to punch Meowth's stomach then to Meowth's chest then to Meowth's other parts of his feline body.

"Oh no Meowth!" May said full of horror and disbelief, her eyes widen in shock and tears are attempting to fall. She cannot stand any of her friends get to be generally beaten without resistance. "Ash we have to do something!"

"I know May." Ash answered lowering his head; he to cannot stand seeing his friends got hurt pretty badly so he decided to just lower his head so he cannot see what is happening. "But team rocket is using Sarah, Brock, Dawn and Pikachu as a shield; we cannot do anything unless we can destroy that remote!"

Their conversation was interrupted when the plant-type used his glowing bouquet-like hands to give a big punch on Meowth's cat face; that attack caused the scratch cat to fly into a nearby tree back first.

"Alright Roserade!" Jessie cheered seeing their secondary target hit the tree pretty badly. "Finish him off with using weatherball attack!"

The fully-evolved-grass-type Pokemon complied, forming a huge fireball between his bouquet-like hands; after a few seconds Roserade threw the huge fireball into the scratch-cat Pokemon which caused a huge explosion.

-Meowth's Pov before the weatherball attack-

I can't believe that 'flower boy' can fight back twice as hard even thru all of those attacks that I gave him.

I tried moving my hands but to no avail, it seems that I used all of my remaining strength in that double edge attack and standing up, then I saw that 'flower boy' used his right 'flowery fist' towards my face; I tried to dodge but my body just too tired to even move so I just braced for his attack.

Three…

Two…

One…

Boom!!

'Flower boy' just gave me a punch in the face that I'll never forget. I felt like my head got hit by thousands of rocks just like my former mentor/superior used in training when we go out to assassinate some trainer/official that the organization is after. Once again reality faced me as I felt my back hit something like…a tree.

Crap! I will feel this tomorrow when Sarah…

Speaking of Sarah, I just remembered that my most precious trainer is in trouble.

I m-must s-save s-Sarah!

Opening my right eye slowly because my other eye felt like hell since that 'flower boy' manages to punch me there. Once I manage to picture everything my eye saw, that's when I realized that 'flower boy' is forming a large fireball between his 'flowery hands'

Crap not again!

When 'flower boy' fired his fireball at me, I felt fire stuck on my fur and my whole body which caused me to shout in pain. I felt my body drop on the ground with no more power to even move a muscle that's when I confessed to my self that…

Sorry Sarah I failed you I'm sorry,

Slowly I tried to stop my eye from shutting down but to no avail…after feeling like hours of sleep something went to my sensitive ears the sound of….

Explosion? No that can't be, I'm down on the ground unconscious that can't be right…

I knew that team rocket can't finish me off because they need me for experimental purposes, I had the hunch that something is going on…but what?

Suddenly I felt my body slowly regaining my strength…

What the? What is happening?

Then I had the strength to move my arms and feet again…

Is somebody using healbell on me…?

After a few minutes seem like hours to me I felt like I just came out of the Pokemon center with my strength recovered, then I opened my eyes as wide as my cat eyes could, the first thing I saw is a girl the same age as Sarah with brownish-red hair looking at my cat eyes from her brown eyes.

She has the same eyes as Sarah, no it can't be…

Floating next to the girl was some Pokemon with white body who symbolized a wind chime…I look thru too the place where I woke up, but to my shock this is the same place I fainted…then I look thru my right then I saw three Pokemon's fighting 'flower boy', the first one I recognize it's Mr. Ketchum's buizel but the other two are a mystery to me…

"Hello Meowth are you all right?" the girl asked me, that's when I recognize the voice. A voice I thought I never hear as long as Sarah and I stayed in this time.

"Of course Miss Riku, thanks!" I answered with my usual smile, really glad to hear again from her…
