(Chapter 8): Fruit Ed (Vs Tsareena) (Rocket Arc)

Lee parked the car next to a tree, away from sight. Only she and Jimmy remember the place.

Lee sighed as she looked through the forest. Full of Bug Type Pokémon and Fruit. But why would Eddy be here?

Lee looked at Jimmy as Jimmy nods to her. She nods back and both Cul De Sac Kids jumped straight into the adventure into the Forest.

Through the bug types, Lee was in charge when it comes to attacking with Ember, Peck and Fire Wing, while Jimmy made sure she wasn't out of attacks.

(Collected EXP: 200)

Halfway there to the ending of Fruit Forest, Lee and Jimmy stopped to see a Tsareena and a Meowth dash by with a few Pokémon who had a black cape with a capital red R on it.

"No..." Lee looked over at the group and saw Eddy.

Jimmy hopped. "Let's go, Lee! Let's save Eddy!"

"Right!" Lee pats the little, brave Eevee.

Chasing the Rocket Grunts, and Jimmy and Lee practiced fighting Rocket Grunts, Feral Pokémon with TM Moves.

"Hey! What the-?!" A grunt shouted as Jimmy tackled into the Rocket Grunt, a Tyrogue, with great force!

(Tyrogue 30HP to [LUCKY!] 0HP KO!)

After the duo got to the end of the map, they found Ed and Double D encountering Eddy in a fight!

Ed with Edd were fighting Eddy, but Eddy has a New Move strong enough to defeat anybody!

"Eddy! You're hurting me!" Eddy holds his wounds.

"Eddy! Please, leave the Rockets! I'm sorry we got you into this mess!" Edd tried to use apologies. "Please don't fight!"

(Ed 2HP

Edd 1HP)

"You guys just hurt me the most!" Eddy shed some tears as he fought his friend.

"Eddy! Stop!" Lee jumped in, but gets kicked in the face by a Tsareena, who is known to have flinching kicks. Lee screamed in pain, which Jimmy rushed to Lee and fed her an Oran Berry, but slicing it into swallowing pieces so that she doesn't have to use her hurt jaw.

"So, the Peach Creek kids are here as well..." Tsareena smirked. "Sorry kids, Team Rocket Junior is known to have faithful allies! We are here to serve under the name of Giovanni and destroy any traitors. So of Eddy leaves, he's a goner!"

Eddy's eyes were opened as touched the back of his head. "Oh no..." There was a chip stuck to the back of his head.

Suddenly, Eddy fainted asleep in the background as a Drowzee came unseen and unsensed by anyone and took Eddy deep in the woods, using illusions as a distraction while the Tsareena rambled on about goals of Team Rocket Junior.

"No! You plan to use your plans to govern the world?!" Shouted Edd.

"Correct." Tsareena cackled. "You see now, you're cornered in all directions. we got teams under our command to take over this world! Whether if it is for Money, controlling the Multiverse, or simply putting puny weaklings under our feet, Team Rocket ALWAYS survives!"

"Y - You... Monsters..." Jimmy said shyly as he turned from a sad face to an angry face. Jimmy screamed as he charging to Tsareena.

(Boss Battle Begin!)

(OST: Partners in Time DX Boss Battle: By TC Music)

(Rocket Elite Tsareena Appeared!)

(RE Tsareena 300 HP)

"Alright! You want to fight, little furball?!" Tsareena kicked her legs in the air. "Let's go!"

(Jimmy 80HP)

Jimmy looked at his inventory and found an "Heel Seed"?

Jimmy looked close and heard something bubbling inside.

The Tsareena marched forward as she used the same move Eddy had to defeat the other Eds!

"T - Take this!" Shouted Jimmy as he tossed the Heel Seed onto Tsareena, which opened and splatted some acid onto her!

(Tsareena's Toxified! That's gotta hurt!)

"Why you little brat?!" Tsareena ran to Jimmy with a Tropical Kick!

(Jimmy 80HP to 50HP)

Jimmy flinched of the hard kick but got back up, flinching of the hard kick.

(Jimmy's Defense Fell!)

Tsareena got hurt because of the "Heel" Seed Toxins.

(RE Tsareena 300HP to 270HP Toxified!)

"Don't worry Jimmy!" Ed surprise attacked the Fruit Queen with a ranged Water Gun!

(RE Tsareena 270HP to 260 HP Toxified!)

"Eat this, Jimmy!" Double D tossed a Fire Blast Seed to Jimmy.

Jimmy eats the seed and exhaled fire all over Tsareena!

(RE Tsareena 260HP to 200HP Toxified!)

"Jimmy..." Lee tried getting up, but was surrounded by Two Voltorbs ready to self-destruct!

"Oh no!" Double was shocked and scared as he Voltorbs glowed!

"Oh no! Lee!" Jimmy rushed to the Voltorbs with a speeding tackle, making Tsareena, Ed and Edd follow him.

(Voltorb 1 20HP to 0HP)

Lee gets up and used Fire Wing on the second Voltorb, defeating it. Tsareena closed in, but took too much steps making her take Toxin effects!

(Lee 0HP to 1HP Saved!

Voltorb 2 20HP to 0HP

RE Tsareena 200 to 140HP!)

"YOU WILL PAY!" Tsareena's Aura flared as he speeds gained perfect status effects. Tsareena cackled as she was about to finish off Jimmy as her right leg glowed (white/blue)! "You know, I feel back holding back for weak Pokémon, now I don't have to anymore! And now I don't need your puny friend to help me out no more!"

Tsareena pressed a badge button that was supposed to end Eddy, but didn't.

"Saved by the bell, huh?!" Eddy appeared as his Coin on the head glowed. "Take this, traitor!" Eddy shot a coin from his coin to Tsareena just as she was about to attack.

(Eddy Used Taunt)

"For a Rocket Grunt, you SURE are weak without that strong move! I bet even Aggron can do better!" Eddy then raspberried Tsareena, making her only wanting to attack him. She runs to Eddy, but was caught into the Three Eds in a trap!

(An Arcane Core lit up!)

"BEAT UP CHARGE!" The Eds combined their Melee attacks to hit Tsareena with every physical hit they can do! Jimmy and Lee helped surround the Evil Creature with Fire Wing and Bite!

(RE Tsareena 140HP to 10HP!)

The group held their position and posed for their battle stance, holding Tsareena as she breathes hard due to low Health and Toxins which took effect after her final attack!

"EXTERMINATE!" Tsareena took out her anger on Eddy as she kicks him all the way to a tree. She then slowly faints from toxins. "Curse... you... Peach Creek..."

(RE Tsareena 10HP to 0HP KO!)

(Ost: Champion Victory : PKMN Diamond and Pearl)

(VICTORY!)

The group celebrated in victory!

(Victory Rewards:

+Fruit Badge

+Power Band

+Perfect Apple

(Battle Over)

Tsareena was then teleported out of the woods, leaving Eddy fainted and abandoned.

Ed, Edd, Jimmy and Lee took Eddy back to Treasure Town, where people were ready to shame him. Luckily, Jimmy begged not to shame Eddy for he was just carried away with sadness. Nurse Audino heals Eddy and the crew and recovered everything damaged by the Move Exterminate.

Ginji arrives to see if everyone's okay.

"Oh look who it is!" Eddy crossed his arms.

"Look, I'm sorry if we arrested you, I was just a bit mad about your scamming that would've brought chaos in our home." Ginji apologized.

Edd looked at Eddy in worry. Eddy sighed and accepted the apology. "Fine... Just don't jump to conclusions. I was lucky to be saved from that Drowzee to get rid of that tracker chip."

"Drowzee?" asked Ginji. "Haven't seen him in a while. But yeah, you're lucky. He rarely comes out now that he's a butler for Team Charm in the Fruit Forest."

"Say what?" asked Eddy.

"Right in the end of the Fruit Forest is Team Charm's Mansion." Ginji revealed.

"HEY DORK!" Shouted a familiar voice. It was Kevin as he and Nazz rushed in as well as the rest of the Cul De Sac arrived. "Why did you run away and side with the villains, you idiot?!"

"What he means is why did you run away and fight us?" asked Nazz.

"I was just to angry, but hey! I got a powerful melee move to finish off whoever is in our way!" Eddy also took his Rocket Cape and pins his Fruit Badge on it. "I, Captain Eddy, is ready to go on an ANOTHER adventure! Come on! Let's go!"

"Well, we can't." Said Johnny. "We signed into the Elite Prodigies to rescue you..."

"And we can't roam around unless we get a graduate!" Sarah said while crossing her arms.

"You got us into this mess, Ed Boy!" Rolf tolerated Eddy. "But Rolf's a bit happy to see you back."

"Okay?" Said Eddy.

"Well, we haven't signed up." Said Jimmy. "We might as well join."

"No, Jimmy! You do NOT want to go in!" Sarah warned.

"It's like Boot Camp only harder and less anoying, but I do like that Loudred's loud alarm!" Alison enjoyed hearing something loud for once.

"Not a good vibe..." Said Ali. "But I do enjoy that incense scent of Lavender that they put for sleeping troops."

"Well, I guess we're happy here, let's sign up!" Shouted Eddy.

"But Eddy! Don't you think you're prepared to go for some training?" Asked Edd as he was afraid of getting hurt.

"No worries, Double D." Said Eddy. "I'll request that they'll put you as a nerd or something."

"By nerd, you mean scientist, right?" asked Double D.

"Yeah, whatever." Said Eddy.

"APPLES!" Ed munched on a Giant, Red, juicy, apple as his jaw was clamped onto it while he drinks the sweet juice of the fruit.

...

After the group signed into the Elite Prodigies Exploration Team, the group then lived in a giant bedroom with all 14 Members of the Cul De Sac.

So far, nothing that bad is going on, but so far, lately, more portals appeared in the real world.

...

Steve was just worried about his admirer and his friends who were guarding the portal.

A few had left because they rather help someone with Popularity unlike the Eds.

"You know what, Steve." Said a girl from Lemon Brooke. "I think I'll call it quits... This is LAME and you know it. I should've been loot unboxing in Guardians 2 instead of our rival school! So yeah, oof.. Laters..."

Steve looks into the portal with his eyes watering in sadness.

"Hey, Amy..." Said Steve. "As my final request, tell my family I love them..."

And with that, Steve was about to jump into the portal, but then noticed Amy was recording Steve. This discouraged Steve.

"What are you doing? Jump!" Amy continued recording.

"You are a dirty crook! You know what?! Forget about Lemon Brooke! I'm joining the Cul De Sac of Peach Creek!" Steve spoke loudly, making Amy bored and blow out a bubble of bubblegum. "You and I know you Lemon Brooke are just fame seekers! Sure, Eddy may be a money seeker, but at least he cares about his friends! Maybe I can join to and THEN defeat you in Football so you can put the press THIS!"

Steve chucked out a Fireball from his hand to Amy as she dodged it.

"Ugh! RUDE!" Amy stopped recording until she was hit with another fireball. "You animal!"

"No! I'm a Pokémon!" Steve morphed fully into a Pokémon as the portal sucked him in.

Amy looked at her phone which had a screen crack, and got furious! "You jerk!" She chased Steve down the portal as she too was now a Pokémon.

The portal closed.

Who's next?!
