"For Whome The Rose Blossoms"

A RocketShippers fan-fic by JessieofTR

Chapter One: "A Dream He Thought Would Never End"

Jessie was a woman about the age of 18. James was a man about the age of 19. They had they're Pokemon partner, Meowth. What was more is that they were members of the notorious Team Rocket; A pokemon stealing gang out to rule the world.

Jessie had always acted like she hated James. And James knew she did. But for him...it was a whole different story....

Jessie woke up that morning. She ate her pancakes and then sat on the couch reading the newspaper. She didn't do this often, but she was bored this time. It was a Saturday. James woke up around noon, like he always did on the weekend. Jessie looked at him and didn't say a word.

James skipped breakfast. He wasn't too hungry. He sat down, holding his beloved rose in his hands, when Jessie asked him a question that kinda startled him.

"James," she began. "Why do you carry that stupid rose?"

"Jessie! It's not stupid. I like this rose." He held it tight.

"...." Jessie just sat there. "You didn't tell me why you carry it around."

"Do you really have to know? Why do you even care?"

Jessie gave him an evil stare, that instantly said, "James, tell me why you carry that rose, or DIE!"

James was intiminated enough. "Um, ok, ok! I carry this around...um, cause it symbolizes...." James froze. He then spoke on. "It symbolizes my family!"

Jessie lifted an eyebrow. "You carry it around cause you want to think of your family?"

"Um, yeah. Exactly."

"James, I thought you hated your family."

"Hey! It's still my mom and dad!"

Jessie stared at him for a while, then said, "Whatever..." and went back to reading the newspaper.

James left the living room and went to his. He layed on his bed next to his rose. He sighed. If only I could tell her the truth, He thought.

************************************

James was dreaming that night. At first, it was a good dream, but then it turned bad.

He saw a light first, then a feild of roses. He picked each one of the roses, and while he picked them, he thought of Jessie. He was so happy, thinking about her, he just threw all the roses into the air. Then he looked ahead of him. All the roses were gone.

But, he couldn't have picked that many! There had to be some sort of mistake! Only one rose remained.

James, instantly knew that was his rose. He ran to it and picked it. It was his rose. He knew it!

He looked ahead, and then saw Jessie. She was standing there, wearing a long white dress, with it blowing in the wind. James had never saw her looking so beautiful in his life! Jessie never wore a dress, not one like this! James smiled. So far, he liked his dream. But then....

He looked at his rose. The petals on it were slowly falling off. One by one they fell.

He couldn't lose this rose! It symbolized his one true love! Jessie!

He looked ahead to see Jessie slowly dissapearing right before his eyes.

He looked down at his rose. Every time a petal fell, a part of Jessie would disapear. One after another. James could see right through Jessie's body. But she was just standing there like a ghost! She didn't even know what was happening!

"JESSIE! NO!!" James screamed and ran to Jessie. But it was too late.....

By the time James got to her, she was completly gone. He watched as the last rose petal fell. James then went into a mode of panic, and finally, sat up in his bed, screaming.

He finally shut up. Jessie's bedroom was right next door to his, and Meowth slept in Mondo's room, which was right across the hall.

He swore to himself he wouldn't tell a soul about his dream. If they knew......

If they knew James had a secret, they would bug it out of him. They, meaning Jessie, Mondo, and Meowth (especially Meowth). He couldn't tell them anything.

James went back to sleep, unaware of the turn of events that would happen the next morning....
