Chapter 29: Interrogation
(Insert "Tears of Life" from Pokémon)
Fifi La Fume ran into the ladies' room to cry her eyes out. "Eet's naht fair! Eet's just naht fair! Every time I wahnt to find true lahve, deesahstair strikes. Eet's like ze whahle wahrld wahnts me to naht hahve ze hahppiness zat I deserve! Tahnight wahs suppahsed to be my mahst rahmahnteec night. But I'm denied of my rahmahnce yet ahgain!" sobbed Fifi. She resumed weeping.
But then, Fifi began to hear somebody else weeping in the ladies' room. She turned and looked in one of the stalls. The one crying was Bimbette Skunk. "Beembette?" asked Fifi. "Go away. I just want to left alone. You already caused me enough trouble. What is it about you that Pikachu likes instead of me?" asked Bimbette. "When he looks pahst my odahr, he sees a sweet leettle geerl who wahnts to be lahved. But zose heartless Team Rahcket sieves stahle my dahte ahnd keednahpped Ahsh ahnd Serena. Ahnd I couldn't sahve zem ahll because of Elmyra's eenterference. I'm ahlways being denied of ze lahve zat I deserve," said Fifi.
Bimbette then realized something. "That's exactly the trouble I've experienced when I was your age. And it's still happening me today," said Bimbette. "Whaht?" asked Fifi. "When I was your age, I had trouble with seeking love. Every boy run away from me because of my smell and the way I try to woo them. And like your case with Johnny Pew, there was this famous celebrity that I had a crush on. But he was selfish and only cared for himself. So, you and I are not different," said Bimbette.
Fifi could tell by Bimbette's eyes that she wasn't lying. "Oh Beembette. I'm sahrry I meesjudged you. Ees eet naht too lahte to stahrt ovair?" asked Fifi. "No. It isn't. And I'm sorry about what happened years ago and how I bullied you," said Bimbette. The two skunkettes hugged each other to try to comfort each other.

At that moment, Babs entered the bathroom. "Fifi, we're trying to interrogate the Perfecto Prep students on the whereabouts of Ash, Pikachu and Serena. So far, we haven't had much luck. We were wondering if you would like a crack at them," said Babs. Fifi's look of sadness turned into a look of anger. "Breeng me to zem. Eet's time I show zem whaht hahppens when zey try to ruin my rahmahnce," said Fifi.

Jessie, James and Meowth brought Pikachu, Fifi's Spritzee, Ash and Serena to Perfecto Prep. When Roderick and Rhubella Rats heard that none of the students that accompanied Team Rocket returned, they were furious. "YOU WHAT?!" asked Roderick. "We left them behind?" asked Jessie. "You were supposed to return with all them!" said Rhubella. "What? At least we finally got Pikachu and the two twerps so that we can execute them. And I achieved my revenge against Fifi by kidnapping his date and her Spritzee. It's no big deal," said Meowth. Roderick and Rhubella punched Team Rocket, knocking them down. "No big deal?! NO BIG DEAL?! You idiots! Do you realize what this could do to our schools' reputation! If they find out about our dealings with you three, our reputation will come crashing down!" yelled Roderick.
But then, Jessie fired titanium cables from a gun that tied up both Roderick and Rhubella Rat. "What are you doing?!" asked Rhubella. "Making sure you don't try to do something to screw up our victory like going back to Acme Looniversity to get your comrades. They'll try to pry our location from you. By the time they get it from the others, it'll be too late," said James. "Your reputation may go down, but ours will finally go back up to the top, where we belong!" said Meowth. "Come on. We got to make preparations to finally put an end of our hated enemies," said Jessie. Team Rocket began to laugh maniacally as they began to plot their revenge.

In the interrogation room, Fifi La Fume sat in front of Danforth and Margot. "Ahlright you two, where deed Team Rahcket tahke Peekahchu, Ahsh, Serena ahnd my Spreetzee to?" asked Fifi. "Why should we tell you?" asked Danforth. "My lightneeng bahlt of l'ahmour hahs been keednahpped ahnd you're ze only ones who know where zose sieves took heem to!" said Fifi. "We don't help Acme Looniversity students," said Margot. "Very well, eef you wahn't tahlk, I'll mahke you tahlk," said Fifi. Fifi turned her back from the two ducks. The purple skunkette then began to release her horrible stench. The two ducks' eyes widened when they smelled Fifi's musk. Their eyes were tearing up too. "Ugh! Disgusting!" cried Margot. "Make it stop! MAKE IT STOP!" cried Danforth. "I wahn't stahp unless you tahlk!" said Fifi.
Fifi continued to stink the two ducks until they finally couldn't take it. "Okay! Okay! We'll talk! We'll talk! Please, stop stinking us out!" begged the two ducks. Fifi stopped stinking the room. "Team Rocket took their captives back to Perfecto Prep!" said Danforth. "Why would zey tahke zem bahck to your school. Zey could've just left Looney Tunes Lahnd whenevair zey wahnted to. Whaht ahre zey plahnneeng?" asked Fifi. Danforth and Margot said nothing. "WHAHT AHRE ZEY PLAHNNEENG?!" asked Fifi. The two ducks remained silent.
"Very well. You leave me no choice," said Fifi. She turned to Shirley. "Sheerley," said Shirley. Shirley concentrated and began to use her psychic powers that she's been trying to master to probe their minds. The two ducks screamed as their minds were being read. For it was a painful process. After a few minutes, Shirley soon found out what she needed to know and stopped probing their mind. "Whaht deed you find out, Sheerley?" asked Fifi. "It's horrible. They're planning to kill Ash and Serena by using Pikachu and your Spritzee," said Shirley. "Weeth Peekahchu ahnd my Spreetzee? How?" asked Fifi. "They're going to, like, use some cruel devices called the Mark III Manner Minder to control Pikachu, Pinky and Violet's body movements in order to force them to kill their own friends," said Shirley.
Hearing this made Fifi angry, very angry. "Zat's eet! Nahbody tries to fahrce Peekahchu ahnd my Spreetzee to keell friends ahnd gets ahway weeth eet!" snarled Fifi as she clinched her fist. She kicked the door to the interrogation room open. "Sheerley. See to eet zat ze Perfecto Prep students dahn't try to get ahway! I'm going to give Team Rahcket whaht's cahmeeng to zem ahnd sahve Peekahchu, my Spreetzee, Ahsh ahnd Serena!" said Fifi. "Count me in too," said a voice. It was Bimbette Skunk. "Beembette?" asked Fifi. "I want to get even with that Meowth for breaking my heart! And I want to redeem myself for always getting in your way of romance," said Bimbette. "Okay. Let's suit up," said Fifi. "Suit up?" asked Bimbette. "We need to chahnge eento ahpprahpriate cahstumes fahr ziss rescue operahtion," said Fifi.
For those who seen the Pokémon anime, you probably remember the Mark III Manner Minder as the device they used to control that Trainer's Poliwrath in the Johto episode where Misty's Poliwhirl evolved into a Politoed. Just like what happened in the Aroma-geddon chapter, Fifi is going to show how dangerous she can be when a boy she likes is threatened. Next chapter, Fifi and Bimbette are going to give Team Rocket a beatdown they're never going to forget . . .
