Chapter 30: The Rescue and Final Battle
(Insert "Absolute Death" from Pokémon)
Team Rocket had tied up Ash and Serena at Perfecto Prep's auditorium. "Tonight, our suffering and bad luck ends tonight, starting with your deaths," said Meowth. "The last time you tried to kill me and friends back at Hoenn, it backfired cause my friends I made over the years came to our rescue! And it'll backfire again!" said Ash. "Not this time. The mistake we made was making the execution a public one. This time, there are no witnesses and nobody will come to your rescue!" sneered Jessie. Meowth then used a remote, which activated the Mark III Manner Minders that were strapped on Pikachu, Pinky and Violet. He forced the three to walk toward Ash and Serena. Serena gasped in horror.
"What have they done to Pikachu and Fifi's Spritzee?!" asked Serena. "I've seen them do this before. Back in Johto, they stole a Poliwrath belonging to a Trainer named Delaney. When it refused to obey them, they used that brace to control its body to make it fight for them," said Ash. "That's right. And now we're going to use it make Pikachu and the Spritzee to kill you two," said James. "We won't!" said Pinky. "I refuse!" said Pikachu. "Your bodies have no choice in this matter!" sneered Meowth. "Any last words before we end your pathetic lives?" asked Jessie. "Even if you kill us and people do find out, it won't get people to fear and submit to you! It'll just give rise to new opposition to take our places! They'll hunt you down . . . to the ends of the Earth if they have to! And they will not stop until you three are dead and brought to justice!" said Ash. "Bah! Enough of that mumbo jumbo! Time for you to die!" said James. "Now, Pikachu use Thunder to annihila . . . ," said Meowth.

KA-BOOM! An explosion knocked Jessie, James and Meowth down. This caused Meowth to drop the remote that controlled the Mark III Manner Minder. "Who dares?!" asked Meowth. When the smoke cleared, they saw who the attackers were. It was Fifi La Fume and Bimbette Skunk. But they were wearing what appeared to be superhero costumes. Fifi's consisted of a turquoise, white & black body forming shirt was colored like a tuxedo top and made sure to show off her womanly form. The bell sleeves were large and baggy. Fifi also wore turquoise thigh-high boots, a red headdress and red lipstick. Bimbette's costume resembled a purple, one piece swimsuit. The upper part of her costume resembled chain-mail. She also wore purple gauntlets, armbands and boots as well as purple lipstick. "Fifi?" asked Ash. "Bimbette?" asked Serena. "Pika?" asked Pikachu. "Spritzee?" asked Pinky & Violet. "When I'm weareeng ziss cahstume, I ahm known ahs Scentahnna, ze Maiden of Musk," said Fifi. "And I am called Skunkfire," said Bimbette.
When Team Rocket saw Fifi as Scentanna, they recognized the costume and got angry. "You! You're the one who ruined our plan to frame the twerps in Kalos!" snarled Team Rocket angrily. "So, you steell remembair me ahnd ze beateeng I gahve you. I especially mahde sure zat ze squid pretendeeng to be my Peeka Weeka received ze hahrshest puneeshment. Ahnd ahftair beateeng you, ze pahlice put you een stahcks," said Fifi. "Don't think wearing superhero costumes is going to give you a chance at winning," said Jessie. "Oh, but these are no ordinary costumes," said Skunkfire. Scentanna used geokinesis to summon some rocks, which whacked Team Rocket. The pink skunkette fired some starbolts to blast the three thieves, knocking them down. "Zese cahstumes give us superpowers, wheech you eediots prahbahbly hahve fahrgotten when I fought you," said Scentanna.
Meowth then grabbed the remote control to activate the mind brace that was controlling Pikachu and Fifi's Spritzee. He used it to have the three Pokémon step in front of him and his partners. "In order to get to us, you have to get past Pikachu and your Spritzee. There's no way you can fight them without hurting them," taunted Meowth. Scentanna remained unfazed. "Who says I need to hurt zem?" asked Scentanna. "Huh?" asked Team Rocket. Scentanna let off her stench at Pikachu, Pinky and Violet. Suddenly, James gasped in horror when he saw something. "What is it, James?" asked Meowth. "Look!" cried James, pointing to Pikachu and the two Spritzee. Both Jessie and Meowth saw what James was pointing to. The Mark III Manner Minders was starting to melt. "Aaaaaugh! She's melting the Mark III Manner Minders with her musk!" cried Meowth. Very soon, they melted completely, freeing Pikachu and Spritzee. "Thanks, Scentanna," said Pikachu. "I knew of ze seetuation you were een zanks to Sheerley's psycheec powers," said Scentanna.
"No! We won't let you get away with our Pikachu!" said Jessie. "He's not yours! He's mine!" said a voice. Team Rocket turned around and saw that it was Ash. And he and Serena were freed from their ropes. "WHAT?!" asked Team Rocket. Ash and Serena then punched Jessie and James, causing them to fall on top of Meowth and squishing him. Due to the toon physics of Looney Tune Land, he was flattened into a pancake. "No fair!" cried Jessie. "How did you get free?!" asked James. "We could've escaped anytime. But we decided to keep an eye on you clowns," said Ash. Meowth peeled himself off the floor and shook himself back to normal. "Why are you always one step ahead of us?! We used to be one step ahead of you in our first couple of years!" ranted Meowth. "You've become sadly predictable that we know your tricks by now," said Serena. Team Rocket let out angry yells and charged at Ash, Serena and Pikachu. But Skunkfire did a flying kick, knocking them down. "Your fight is with us!" said Skunkfire.
"Ash, Serena, Pikachu, Pinky, Violet. Get out of here. We'll hold off Team Rocket," said Scentanna. "Okay. But we have to rescue Roderick and Rhubella first. Team Rocket tied them up to prevent them from doing anything that would ruin their plans," said Serena. "They need to face justice for their involvement," said Ash. The two Pokémon Trainers and Pikachu began to make a run for it.

"We worked hard to catch Pikachu and we're not about to allow two stinky skunks take away our day of victory!" yelled Meowth. "Well let me tell you sahmetheeng, you fleabahg! I searched lahng ahnd hahrd fahr years to find true lahve! Ahnd Peekahchu ees ze one fahr me! I ahm naht ahbout to ahllow a bunch of petty crooks cahme between me ahnd my boy!" retorted Scentanna. "Then you two will die for your interference! Wobbuffet, Seviper, Yanmega, Woobat, Frillish, Gourgeist, go!" said Jessie. "Carnivine, Mime Jr., Yamask, Amoongus, Inkay, I choose you!" said James. Both thieves threw the balls and their Pokémon were summoned.
Yanmega was a Pokémon Jessie caught during the time that she and her partners were suspended from going after Ash in the Sinnoh Region. Yanmega was a large, dark green dragonfly Pokémon. Its large eyes were red with black lines that made a sideways "T" shape in each one. It had two large, white fangs or mandibles next to its small mouth. Its immense jaw power allowed it to bite apart foes while flying by at high speed. Each of Yanmega's segments had a red spot on them, while the last tail segment had a black triangular plate. It had two similar plates on the back of its thorax and a third on its head. It had four white, oval wings with red tips, and there were two smaller white wings on the end of its tail.
Woobat was a blue, spherical Pokémon, resembling a Honduran White Bat. It was covered in shaggy fur and had a large, piggish nose with a heart-shaped nostril. Two tufts of shaggy fur hid its eyes, and its mouth had a single fang in the center of its upper jaw. There were two relatively small, black wings on either side of its body. Frillish was a jellyfish-like Pokémon resembling young royalty. Regardless of gender, it had a round head with a crown-like tuft, and five tentacle-like appendages. It had oval eyes with white pupils, and a collar around its neck. As a male Frillish, it was blue, with smooth appendages and a triangular crown. It had red eyes with blue sclera and a straight eyelash on each eye, its collar is wavy, and it appeared to be frowning. As a female Frillish, it was pink, with wavy appendages and a round crown. It had blue eyes with red sclera and a curled eyelash on each eye, its collar was frilled, and it appeared to be smiling. Jessie's Frillish was female.
Gourgeist was a ghostly Pokémon that had four sizes: Small, Average, Large, and Super Size. Its body was a dark brown pumpkin with a glowing, yellow-orange face carved into the front and a pair of nubby legs. The face consists of two triangular eyes and a grinning mouth; on top of the mouth was a small, triangular cutout for a nose. Poking out of the top of the pumpkin was its slender brown-orange head, which had bright yellow eyes and a small mouth but no visible nose. Gourgeist had long, light pink hair with arm-like tendrils framing its face and bangs that usually cover one eye. On top of its head was a crescent-shaped tuft that is brown on top; this tuft resembled a pumpkin's stem. Jessie's Gourgeist was super sized.
Carnivine resembled a venus flytrap, with huge jaws and red and green vines and leaves where its arms should be. James got Carnivine from one of his old mansions in Sinnoh before they were given the boot from the region by Ash and the others. It showed its affection for James by biting down on his head. Mime Jr. was a small, pink Pokémon with dark blue legs and "hat," which appeared crooked and had a white ball on it. A red bump appeared on its stomach and a typical red clown nose appeared on its face. It had slender arms and small hands. James got both Yamask and Amoonguss during his time in Unova. Yamask was a shadow-like Pokémon holding a mask that had a face from its time as a human. It had two shadowy, tendril-like arms and large, red eyes. It also had a small tail-like appendage that held the mask.
Amoonguss was a mushroom-like Pokémon with a large, light-colored Pokéball designed cap with warts. It also had a huge gray, stem-like body, fierce looking eyes and a large pink mouth. Amoonguss wielded two Pokéball-like shields. Inkay was a blue squid-like Pokémon. It had a transparent mantle with a rounded, pink body inside that had several yellow, circular lights. There were four lights on the front and two on the back. Attached to its mantle were two transparent tentacles; its remaining tentacles were part of its main body. It had round, black eyes and a pink beak-like mouth.
When Inkay spotted Scentanna, it froze with fear and began to tremble at the sight of her. "I see you hahven't fahrgotten ahbout me," said Scentanna. "Forgotten you?! How could I?! You clobbered me the harshest out of all us! I still have nightmares about that fight," said Inkay pathetically. "Well zat's whaht you get fahr frahmeeng Peekahchu," sneered Scentanna. "Destroy them!" said Jessie & James. Their Pokémon charged at the two skunk superheroes. Scentanna used some electrokinetic powers to zap Inkay, Frillish, Yanmega, Woobat. Their skeletons were visible as they were getting shocked silly. Even though Inkay was an invertebrate, you could still see a skeleton due to Looney Tunes physics. Frillish, Yanmega and Woobat fell easily to the zapping due to being weak to electricity. Inkay fell since he was weak. Skunkfire grabbed Seviper and swung it around to clobber the other Pokémon. After that, both Skunkfire and Scentenna tied Seviper into a knot till it looked like a pretzel. Skunkfire then grabbed all the fallen Pokémon with her strength and threw them into Team Rocket. They all tumbled over.
Skunkfire then grabbed Meowth and began to slap him repeatedly across the face with her tail. "Ow! Ow! Ow!" cried Meowth as he was getting slapped silly. She then delivered a hard punch on Meowth in the gut. Meowth groaned as he clutched his gut. Skunkfire then kicked Meowth, sending him crashing to the ground.

Outside of Perfecto Prep, Ash, Serena, Pikachu, Pinky and Violet met up with Buster and Plucky, carrying the tied up Roderick and Rhubella. "I guess the skunks are roughing up those fools?" asked Buster. "Yep," said Ash. "Time for you two to join you friends behind bars," said Plucky to the rats. The rats were thrown into a patty wagon and it drove off.
Back at the auditorium, Team Rocket were starting to recover. "You guys give up? Have you had enough pain?" asked Skunkfire. "NEVER!" said James. Jessie and Meowth just gave their partner a look. "We still have a robot!" said Meowth. He took out another remote control and a Meowth-based robot appeared at his call. "Skunkfire, go. I will persahnahlly fineesh ziss bahttle seence eet wahs my night zey tried to ruin," said Scentenna. "Okay," said Skunkfire. She began to leave. "Pretty foolish of you to try to take on our Mecha-Meowth alone," taunted Jessie. "I hahve yet to show off my true powair!" said Scentenna. "Huh?" asked Team Rocket.

Scentenna stood in a battle ready pose and part of the ground was starting to shake a little. "What the?" asked Meowth. "What's going on?" asked James. The purple skunkette let out a yell as a gold aura began to glow from her body. In addition, her hair started to spike up and turn golden yellow. Her eyes were turing green and her muscles were also bulking up too.
"Destroy her, my Mecha-Meowth!" said Meowth. He had the Mecha-Meowth fire missiles at Scentenna. However, Scentenna suddenly moved so fast it looked like she warped away. She reappeared and delivered a hard kick on the robot, sending it flying forward. The skunkette warped and reappeared as the Mecha-Meowth was coming toward her. She delivered a powerful punch that sent the robot flying into the air. It burst out of the roof and into the sky. Scetenna then went after the robot. She began to deliver a flurry of punches, kicks, energy blasts and tail strikes on the Mecha-Meowth without breaking a sweat. Plucky was watching this with some binoculars. "Spiky gold hair, green eyes, bulked muscles. I hope Akira Toriyama doesn't hear about this," muttered Plucky.
By now, the Mecha-Meowth was badly damaged, with dents and holes all over its metal armor. It was also missing some of its limbs. Scentanna then prepared to deliver a final attack on the Mecha-Meowth. She began to charge up a powerful energy attack. Purple energy began to form in between her hands. "Sukankuhameha!" cried Scentenna. She fired a purple energy blast which hit the Mecha-Meowth and forced down toward the ground, right where Team Rocket were at. They screamed as the robot came crashing down on them, resulting in an explosion. But it wasn't enough to destroy Perfecto Prep.
(End Music)
Scentenna landed back on the ground on her feet. When the smoke cleared, the robot was completely destroyed. All that was left of was pieces of scrap metal. As for Jessie, James and Meowth, they were black as soot from the explosion. They were on the ground and were banging their fists and throwing a tantrum like spoiled brats. "No! No! No! This was supposed to be our day of victory! Ours! Ours!" screamed Team Rocket pathetically. "Pahtheteec. Just pahtheteec. You're throweeng a cheeldeesh tempair tahntrum like leettle bahbies," said Scentanna. The skunk superheroine began to leave. "Hey! Where do you think you're going?!" asked James. "Ahll your Pahkémahn ahre out of cahmmeession. Your rahbot ees nahtheeng but a pile of scrahp metahl. You three ahre beaten. Give up your eveel ways. 'Cause hahnestly, ze pahth of a creeminahl cahreair eesn't wahrkeeng fahr you. ahnd fahr your sahke, I hahpe we dahn't meet ahgain," said Scentanna.
Team Rocket began to growl angrily as Scentanna was leaving. Meowth then revealed his claws and began to charge at her, yelling angrily. But Scentanna heard him and whacked Meowth with her tail. "You steell trying even ahftair you've been beaten?! Looks like I'll hahve to teach you ahnahthair lessahn!" said Scentanna. Scentanna began to unleash her full power of her musk on Team Rocket. Team Rocket screamed in agony and coughed as they felt the stench. To them, the stench felt like poison gas. "DEUUEAUGH!" cried James. Although Meowth couldn't smell anything, something even worse was happening to Meowth. His coin was starting to melt since Fifi's stench can melt metal. Meowth screamed when he saw this was happening. "My charm! My charm's melting!" cried Meowth. "I can't take it!" cried Jessie as she clutched her face. But then, Jessie felt something wet against her hands and pulled them away from her face. She saw that her gloved hands were stained with some flesh colored goo. And with horror, she realized that goo was her own flesh. Scentanna's musk was melting her flesh. She let out a horrified scream. "My face!" cried Jessie. James and Meowth saw the flesh on certain parts of their body were melting too and screamed as well. Scentanna decided to leave them to their fate and began to run off.
Jessie saw Scentanna running off and growled angrily. "You're not getting away from my vengeance!" cried Jessie as she took out a flamethrower. James and Meowth gasped. "NO JESSIE!" screamed James & Meowth. But it was too late, Jessie activated the flamethrower. But upon activating it, the flamethrower exploded. The explosion started to ignite the skunk fumes in the area. Team Rocket screamed as the explosion engulfed them. The building of Perfecto Prep was consumed by the explosion too. "Fifi!" cried Ash and the others. "Pika!" cried Pikachu. The others ran back to Perfecto Prep.
Ash, Pikachu, Serena, Pinky, Violet, Buster, Plucky and Skunkfire looked for any sign of Scentanna. They waited anxiously. Seconds later, Scentanna emerged, surrounded by a magic barrier. "Fifi!" cried everybody happily. "Pika Pi!" said Pikachu. "Spritzee!" said Pinky & Violet. "I put up a a mahgeec bahrriair to prahtect myself frahm ze explahsion. I'm ahll right. Ahlthough ze sahme cahn't be said ahbout Team Rahcket," said Scentanna, pointing to some rubble, with the three thieves partially sticking out. They laid motionless. The last of Team Rocket were dead. Once the heroes were far from Perfecto Prep, Scentanna let down the magic barrier. Pikachu then jumped into the skunkette's arms and began to rub cheeks with her. Her Spritzee also greeted her too. "Thank you for saving me and my friends," said Pikachu. "Your welcahme. I believe we hahve a pahrty to fineesh," said Scentanna.
Fifi and Bimbette as Scentanna and Skunkfire (Starfire Parody) have rescued the hostages and defeated Team Rocket. I couldn't resist Fifi going in a Super Saiyan like power up form and using the popular DEUUEAUGH! meme from SpongeBob. Knowing Team Rocket, they may not be actually dead. Next chapter, will Pikachu finally get the courage to start a relationship with Fifi? Find out, tomorrow, next chapter . . .
