"What do you mean, lost?!" Misty screamed.
"Well, according to the map, we should be at the airport." Ash said, confused.
"I can't believe this! You had the map upside down!"
"Oh.....No wonder I couldn't read the letters."
Misty hit Ash over the head and walked towards the shore.
"We could always take Lapras," Tracy commented.
"Wow, you have a Lapras?" Brock exclaimed.
"Uh, yeah Brock, I do." Ash said. "But, Tracy, it's too much of a distance to go for Lapras."
Misty looked out at the water and saw a plane taking off.
"Oh, great. That was probably our flight. Now what how are we supposed to get back to Pallet?" "I guess we really are lost." Ash said.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That child ruined my plans." Lawrence said, calmly.
"Well, no matter."
He took out a phone and dialed a number.
"Yes, Master." Said the voice on the phone.
"I want you to pick me up. I am downloading my coordinates now. And tell the division to double their worktime on my new skybase. It looks like I'll be needing it sooner than expected."
"Yes, Master."
After a few minutes have passed, and a helicopter flies and lands near Lawrence. He looked up and said calmly,
"You're late."
"I apologize, Master." Said the butler.
"We are to launch immediately."
"Yes, Master."
The butler looked toward the wreckage.
"Master?" The butler said.
"Yes?"
"May I inquire.....what happened?"
"My plans turned for the worse."
"Did you capture your prize?"
"No, I did not. But I will this time."
"This time, Master?"
"Yes. I will execute my plan to capture Lugia again, but they will be slightly different."
"And, how may that be, Master?"
"Well, I now have a second prize."
He pulled out a holoprojector and pressed a button. Ash's image appeared on it.
"Why, Master, that is a boy."
"Yes. My second prize is his life."
"But why, Master, what has he done to you?"
"More than you can imagine." "Let's go."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Well, Ash, you've certainly done it this time." Misty said.
Ash scratched his head and looked around.
"Brock, does this place look familiar to you?" He said.
"No, I'm sorry. I've never left Ivy's grounds."
"Well, we could just turn around," Tracy commented.
"Good idea." Ash said.
And so time passes and they walk for a half-hour, when they decide to rest.
"Um, Brock, I don't remember passing this area." Ash said.
"Yeah, that's funny. Me neither."
"Pika!" Pikachu said.
Out of nowhere, a wild Kadabra popped out of the bushes and began to eat berries off a tree.
"Wow! A Kadabra!" "Pikachu! Thundershock!" Ash yelled.
"Pika!"
"Pikachu! It's going to attack us!"
"Pika!"
"Brock, Misty, Tracy, do something!"
Ash turned around to see them giving Kadabra some food.
"Well, if Pikachu won't battle it, then I'll catch it!" "Kadabra, you're mine!"
Ash threw the Pokeball at Kadabra. After shaking violently for 30 seconds, it calmed down.
"Yeah! Kadabra's mine!"
Then, a distant voice came from behind the tree.
"Mindmeld! Mindmeld! Where are you?"
It was a person. He saw Ash, Misty, Brock, and Tracy sitting around.
"Excuse me, have you seen my Kadabra, Mindmeld? I think he walked over this way."
At that exact moment, Ash picked up the Pokeball and it disappeared.
"Um, I just caught a Kadabra."
"You did?"
"Yeah."
"Did it have a small scar on his leg, right about here?"
He pointed to the lower part of his right leg.
"Um, yes, as a matter of fact, it did."
The kid paused for a moment, and lashed out at Ash.
"You imbecile! How dull can you be! Don't you know that there are no wild Pokemon on Valencia Island?!"
"Um...."
"Hey, Hey, calm down, Mr. lethargic." Misty said. "Ash can head over to a Pokemon center and get you your Kadabra."
"If your girlfriend didn't say anything, I would have beaten you into the ground."
"I'm not his girlfriend!"
"Didn't you say you were before?" Tracy said.
"I had to say something to get melody to buzz off."
"Right." Tracy said, not believing Misty.
And so, with that small misunderstanding, Ash and his friends followed the kid to the nearest Pokemon center, which was right next to an airport.
"Now, get my Kadabra back."
"Okay."
Ash walked up to the computer and accessed his Pokemon storage program. A small screen appeared in the bottom right corner, displaying Professor Oak.
"Why, hello Ash. What can I do for you."
"I'd like to withdraw the Kadabra I just caught."
"Oh, yes. I received one, but it doesn't belong to you. It somehow got here."
"Well, yeah. That's the problem. I caught a trained Kadabra."
"Ah, yes. I'll transfer it to you immediately. Just type in your access code and plug in your Pokedex."
"Thanks, Professor."
"Have you heard about the newest Pokemon invention?"
"No. What is it?"
"It's called the Pokegear. Professor Elm invented it. It's like a Pokedex and a cellular phone combined. It'll be on market soon."
"Sounds interesting. Maybe you can tell me more about it when I get there."
"Say what?"
"I'm coming back to Pallet for a while."
"Nice. Very nice. I think your mother will be glad to hear of this."
Transmitting Pokemon. Please wait. The computer said.
Transmission complete. Thank you.
"I see you've received your Pokemon. Unfortunately, I must go. See you later."
Professor Oak hung up, and the kid walked over to Ash.
"Thanks." He said.
He walked out of the building. Misty turned to Ash and said.
"Well, the airport's right there. We might as well go."
"All right. Let's head out."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Were are, Master." The butler said.
"Ah, yes. Valencia Island. What a beautiful resort."
"Yes, Master. Beautiful."
"Is my base ready?"
"I don't know, Master."
"Then find out."
"Yes, Master."
The butler walked to a videophone standing in what seemed to be the middle of nowhere on a deserted island.
"Yes, it's me." He said. "Is it ready?"
He turned to Lawrence and said,
"Yes, Master."
"Good." Lawrence said. "Tell them I want it now."
"Yes, Master."
"And leave me to myself now. Tell the rest they are on break, but be ready upon my return." He moved closer to the butler and whispered into his ear, "And I mean that. Be ready or else. This must not happen again."
"Yes, Master." The butler said nervously, not knowing what he did.
The butler walked to a spot where on the ground there was a Red Square, and reached his hand out, as though touching a button or switch. He immediately disappeared underground.
"Where are they?" Lawrence said quietly to himself.
He walked to the edge of the small island and gently kicked some dirt into the water. But what he noticed and no one else did, is that under that water are lights. Many lights, which help guide those who want to enter Lawrence's home. Almost immediately, a giant skybase emerged from the water, but it was much like his first, except it was larger, and had more weaponry. He walked towards his invention, and the hatch opened.
"Now, child, It is my turn." He said as he walked in.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Excuse me, miss. How much is it for three tickets for the next flight to Indigo airport?" Ash said.
"That will be 40,004 credits."
"What! I don't have that kind of money!" Ash said.
"Chill, Ash. I'll get it. Here you are, miss."
The attendant swiped Brock's Credit Card and typed some stuff on her computer.
"Thank you! Please fly with us again!"
She handed them their tickets and they walked toward the entry gate.
"So, when's this flight, anyway?" Ash said.
Tracy looked at his ticket.
"Hmmm. How convenient. It leaves at 4:45."
"What time is it?" Misty asked.
"4:44." Tracy said.
"I say it's pure luck!" Ash said.
Meanwhile, the same lady who sold Ash, Misty, Tracy and Brock the tickets was talking on the phone.
"Yes, I'm sure that was them. You said three children, one boy with a Pikachu, a girl with a.." She said.
"You said there were four." Lawrence interrupted.
"Yes, the three kids you described and one other."
"You'd better be right. I don't want anyone innocent to get hurt."
"Get hurt?"
"I thought I told you not to ask questions."
"Yes, Sir." Now, about my reward..."
"You may keep what the boy paid you."
"Is that it? I deserve more than that!"
"You are a mere pawn in this game of chess. You get nothing."
And with that, Lawrence hung up.
"I've got to stop him," The woman said to herself.
She ran towards Ash and the others, but the door shut just as they entered. She stopped running and said to herself,
"What have I done?"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Subject approaching. Identity: Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town. Subject inside of target plane. Distance: 13 kilometers.
"Hello there, Ash."
The airplane took off with Ash, Misty, Brock and Tracy in it.
To be Continued...
"Well, according to the map, we should be at the airport." Ash said, confused.
