Chapter One: Another Encounter
"Winger, I choose you!" shouted Jay. He threw his bird's Super Ball up into the air releasing it. "Winger, fly up high to see if you can spot Wolf Spider City for us."
"Winger!" squawked Winger.
Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb, and Ultra were journeying swiftly through the Black Widow Mountains, which would bring them to Wolf Spider City, home of the Arachnid Island's famous port that would surly bring the five-some back home.
Winger flew up above the trees, and within acouple of seconds it returned. "Winger! Wing-wing!"
Jay nodded. "He wants us to follow him."
Agua shrugged. "Well surly lead the way Winger."
Winger flapped his wings and started heading north along a path.
Meanwhile . . .
"They're heading north," growled Mike.
"They're path leads backwards and forth," muttered Nick.
"They must know where to head," said Kelly.
"Yeah, I want to head right to bed," murmured Fire Kat.
Team Rocket, as usually, was following Jay and the others to try to capture Jay's Ultra and Dee's Fire Orb.
Mike sighed. "It was so much more easy when we were just focusing on that Ultra."
"Why does Teria want that stupid Fire Orb?" asked Nick.
Kelly shrugged. "Teria said when he was in the Elite Eight, Ash always treasured it."
"A bad reason to go after it. There must be something special about it," murmured Fire Kat. "Besides it's a flame type and its features look a bit like mine."
"Let's move troops," whispered Mike. They four-some crawled through the bushes to catch up with Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb, and Ultra.
* * * *
"Ah, Wolf Spider City!" cried Jay. "Just through this path and we're back into the city. I hate this mountain air."
Dee moaned. "That's Jay! He never takes advantage of the setting."
Ultra shook his head.
"Not so fast," growled a voice from over in the bushes.
"You got that right," said a trio of voices.
Agua frowned. "Hello Team Rocket."
"Prepare for"- began Mike.
"Yeah, we know, trouble," interrupted Jay.
"And make it"- Nick started.
"Yeah, we know too, double, double," growled Agua and Dee.
Kelly glared at their enemies. "Well I guess there's no point in continuing on if they keep on finishing our phases. Team Rocket, attack!"
"Gaser, Smogger!" ordered Mike. He threw two Super Balls high into the air.
"Snake Glare, Rhyoran, go!" commanded Nick. He hurled two Super Balls onto the ground revealing his two Pokémon.
"Alakazam, Ratoran female, attack them now!" growled Kelly. She threw a Super Ball and a Poké Ball and out of the balls appeared her big Pokémon and her little Super Pokémon.
"Ice Orb! Whirlpool!" Agua threw two Super Balls and out her deadly Pokémon appeared.
"Solar Orb, Fire Orb!" Dee threw a Super Ball next to Fire Orb and out of it came a Solar Orb.
"Ultra, Winger, I choose you!" said Jay. Winger landed next to Ultra, ready to fight Team Rocket.
"Let's go!" everyone said in unison.
Chapter Two: Battle of the Rockets
"Gaser, Smogger, smokescreen," ordered Mike. "Don't let those fools see anything!"
"Snake Glare paralyze that Ultra! Rhyoran, use your take down on Fire Orb now!" shouted Nick.
"Alakazam, confuse the others with confusion while Ratoran female uses her poison sting on Whirlpool," commanded Kelly.
"Don't let them get to you! Ice Orb ice beam now! Whirlpool psybeam now!" shouted Agua. "Do your best!"
"Solar Orb, Fire Orb, together, raging fire!" shouted Dee.
"Ultra shocker attack! Winger, whirlwind now!" said Jay.
Gaser and Smogger wove around the Pokémon spreading smoke everywhere, but Winger quickly blew it away with its whirlwind attack.
Ultra speedily leaped into the air and sent an electrifying charge of lightning down at Mike's two Pokémon, but Ultra soon found himself paralyzed because of Snake Glare's glare attack.
Solar Orb and Fire Orb charged up and sent a long chain of fire towards the rushing Rhyoran, but the rock Pokémon wasn't badly hurt by the fire and charged right into Fire Orb.
Ratoran quickly leaped at Whirlpool, and poked the water Pokémon with it's horn. Poison dripping into Whirlpool, making its body change different colors, but making it faint in the end. Reacting to this, Ice Orb shot its ice beam at Ratoran and froze it over.
"Winger, Solar Orb, Ice Orb are our only hopes," murmured Dee.
"I'm just glad my Alakazam and Nick's Rhyoran and Snake Glare are so powerful, so they'll stop you brats!" growled Kelly.
"Winger focus your talon strike on Snake Glare!" shouted Jay.
"Use your aurora beam on Rhyoran, you can stop it Ice Orb!" ordered Agua.
"And Solar Orb, finish off Rhyoran with a slam attack," commanded Dee.
Winger flew up high into the air, locked onto it target, and flew down talons first. Winger's talons scraped Snake Glare, and the poor snake Pokémon fell down with a moan.
A slit on the orb Pokémon opened up, and frost shot from its mouth. The frost covered Rhyoran and slowly froze it over and Solar Orb finished it off with a slam attack.
"Alakazam, attack already!" growled Kelly.
Alakazam used a psybeam on Winger confusing it and making the bird Pokémon fall to the ground.
Pow! Kelly hit Alakazam over the head. "Why won't you ever listen to me you stupid psychic Pokémon!"
Alakazam turned around and glared at Kelly, preparing to use a psychic attack on its trainer.
"Maybe we better leave," murmured Jay.
Everyone recalled their Pokémon, Jay picked up Ultra, Dee picked up Fire Orb, and they darted out of the fight.
"Ala!" Alakazam gave Team Rocket a psytoss and sent them blasting off again.
Chapter Three: Welcome to Wolf Spider City
"We're here!" cried Jay. "Yeah! Yippee! We're back in a city! I hate the mountains, and I really hate mountains that are infested with 'rockets'!"
Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb (in Dee's arms), and Ultra (in Jay's arms) walked into the city, happy as ever.
"So where to first Jay?" asked Dee.
Jay smiled. "The Pokémon Center. I need to heal my Pokémon after such a horrible fight!" Jay started walking towards the center of the city, where he could see a large building, similar to the one in Arachnid City, with a large Poké Ball on the top of it.
* * * *
"Team Rocket's blasting off a"-
Thud!
Team Rocket, which had been blown away by Alakazam's psytoss, landed right smack in a small building.
"I hope we didn't need a landing permit," moaned Mike.
"Man, the people who live her must be hermits," grumbled Nick.
The two peered around. The building was very small, and away from the Wolf Spider City. The only things in there were maps and papers. Suddenly the two realized-
"Hey! Where're Kelly and Fire Kat!" they cried.
"We're in here, you idiots," growled the familiar voices of their partners.
Mike and Nick stepped into the other room. In there Kelly and Fire Kat sat, reading some of the papers from the desk.
"Whoa, I didn't Fire Kat could read," murmured Nick.
"I'm far more advanced than you annoyingly normal humans," growled Fire Kat. "But whoever thought up this robbery was a genius!"
"What are you talking about, flare-ball," growled Mike.
"We've discovered a plan that some people came up with to capture some Pokémon," said Kelly. "It was probably awhile ago, so let's spring the trap ourselves!"
* * * *
"What do they mean!" cried Dee. "Your building is the biggest in the city."
"Well I'm sorry, we're full," growled the nurse. "The gyms in this city have been pounding the other trainers, most of the centers in Wolf Spider City are full!"
Jay moaned. "But where will I get my Pokémon treated?"
The nurse shook her head. "You should have bought potions and antidotes to make sure your Pokémon was in the best of shape. But you're too late, the mart's closed too, all out of everything."
Agua cringed and moaned. "But you can't just ignore a cry for help! Help!"
The nurse shut the door on the five-some.
"This is a cruel, and mean city," growled Dee.
Jay's eyes began sparkling at a thought. "She said that there were gyms here right? Gyms, as in more than one!"
"Oh boy," muttered Dee and Agua.
"Let's go!" said Jay.
"Wait, what about your Pokémon!" cried the girls.
* * * *
Jay pushed open the doors of a gym in the city and growled, "I challenge the Gym Leader here!"
Dee, who had the injured Fire Orb in her arms, and Agua, who had the paralyzed Ultra in her arms, followed behind the self-centered trainer.
The Gym Leader stepped out from the shadows. "First, let me see the badges you've earned."
Jay showed him his Forest Badge, Orb Badge, Freeze Badge, Ultra Badge, Ghostly Badge, and his newest badge, the Arachnid Badge.
"I'm sorry, you must have already fought one of the other gyms in this city or the one in the Arachnid City, because you already have my badge," said the trainer.
Jay moaned. "You mean, all the gyms here give you an Arachnid Badge? What kind of sick city is this!"
Chapter Four: The Mysterious Pokémon Center
Jay went crying out of the Pokémon Gym.
"Oh Jay, quit whining," growled Agua. She handed him Ultra. "And take care of your Pokémon, too!"
Jay sniffled. "Well, there aren't any available Pokémon Centers to go to, all the gyms give you the same badge that I already earned, the marts are all closed, and I'm hungry!"
"Well that is pretty bad," muttered Dee.
"Pst, hey, are you guys looking for a Pokémon Center?" asked a female voice.
The five-some turned around and there was a woman, dressed as a nurse, a Pokémon Center nurse.
Jay's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree or an Electric Orb. "Are you a nurse!"
"Yes, yes I am," answered the lady. "I run a small Pokémon Center at the edge of downtown, if you need help I'd gladly give you some."
"Yeah!" cheered Jay, Dee, and Agua.
"Then follow me." The nurse started walking off.
Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb, and Ultra all followed.
* * * *
The Pokémon Center the nurse directed them too wasn't empty as they expected. Acouple of trainers were in there depositing their Pokémon, while others were chatting and preparing for battle.
But the Pokémon Center itself wasn't too great. It was an apartment-like building, only really old. The Poké Ball on the front was tilted and hanging by a thread.
"I don't want to bring my Pokémon here! Can we just find another center?" asked Jay.
Pow! "We get what we get and this is all that we got!" cried Agua.
"We have an additional mart, if you need to buy anything for your Pokémon," said the women. She gave a smile, which seemed hauntingly familiar.
"Do we know you?" asked Dee.
The woman shook her head. "No, I'm sorry."
Jay smiled. "Good thing that have a mart, I didn't want to leave Ultra and Fire Orb at this old place." He rushed over to the mart while Dee and Agua handed the nurse their Pokémon.
"They should be ready within two and a half hours, if not later," said the nurse.
"Two and a half hours!" cried Dee and Agua. "But we can't wait that long!"
The nurse sighed. "We aren't as up-to-date as the other centers, we take longer, sorry."
The two girls sighed. "Ready yet Jay?"
* * * *
"I heard this is the only center in town that isn't full," whispered Mike, as Team Rocket headed towards a Pokémon Center.
"Isn't that what you said about the last six Pokémon Centers?" growled Nick.
"Yeah, and the last six before that," growled Fire Kat.
Kelly sighed. "We don't have much of a choice guys."
As they turned a corner, Mike suddenly said, "Now I know why nobody comes here."
The Pokémon Center looked pretty old and bet up, like it had been abandoned for awhile. It wasn't much of a Pokémon Center, but it was a Pokémon Center nonetheless.
"Let's go," said Nick.
Team Rocket marched into the Pokémon Center and saw a nurse sleeping at her desk. Nobody else was there.
"Excuse me, but we'd like to deposit our Pokémon," said Kelly.
"All except for me of course," said Fire Kat.
At the sight of Fire Kat, the nurse seemed to cringe, but Fire Kat didn't really mind. People usually had feelings like that when Fire Kat spoke.
"Alright, how many balls?" asked the nurse.
"Six," answered Mike.
She nodded. "Come back in acouple of hours"-
"Hours!" they all cried.
"Hey, don't worry," said the nurse. "You always have Fire Kat."
Nick sighed. "That's not very reassuring."
****WHO'S THAT POKéMON: MOEGRSG?****
Chapter Five: Pokémon-Less
****IT'S SMOGGER! "Smog!!"****
"Has it been two hours yet?" moaned Jay. He sat in the bookstore reading about the Pokémon League and the challenges that would await him.
"Hey Dee, you know that there's an Elite Eight member that uses bird Pokémon, like you?" asked Dee.
Dee nodded. "I know, relative of mine, cousin or something. She gave me the gym in the Lost Forest." She glanced at Jay. "Actually Jay, it may be about time."
"Yeah!" cried Jay. He picked up Ultra and rushed out of the store.
Agua sighed. "Well I guess we was up and ready to go, huh? Jay! Wait up!"
* * * *
"Hey, that's the seventh police car I've seen on the way over to the center," said Dee. "Something's wrong."
Jay moaned. "Yeah, I don't have my Pokémon back yet."
But suddenly-
Slam!
Jay turned around to see an exhausted boy who was running their way. "Wait where you're running!"
"I'm sorry," said the boy. "Have you heard? A Pokémon Center has disappeared into thin air."
Agua gave the boy a strange look. "And which Pokémon Center might that be?"
The boy thought for a moment. "Well, I guess the only way to describe it is old, run downed, and beat up. It's sort of in an alley area."
Agua cringed. "That's the center we dropped off our Pokémon at guys! Let's move guys!"
* * * *
As Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb, Ultra, and the young boy all ran, they thought of what probably happened.
"This has to be another one of Team Rocket's scams," said Dee.
"But what if it isn't?" asked Agua. "Who else would steal a Pokémon Center?"
As Jay ran, he murmured, "Maybe they didn't steal the center. Maybe . . ."
"Look, there it is!" Dee pointed ahead. There was a large empty area, where was being blocked off by police cars and police people. Tons of trainers were there shouting, and raving about their Pokémon missing.
There in the crowd Jay saw a familiar face.
"I see Nick! He and the other Rockets must be trying to still steal Pokémon, or see what publicity they got," growled Dee. "Fire Orb, ember attack, now!"
"Orb!" Fire Orb shot a blast of fire at Nick's head, and his hair caught on fire.
"Wha!" cried Nick. He ran around in pain. "Ow, help, help, help!"
Somebody's Squirtle shot a water gun on Nick's head, putting out the flame.
"Its Team Rocket!" shouted Jay into the crowd.
"Team Rocket?" "They stole our Pokémon!" and "It has to be them!" were murmured and shouted throughout the crowd.
"But we're victims just like you!" cried Kelly. She emptied her pockets. "They stole our Pokémon too!"
Chapter Six: The Truce at Wolf Spider City
"For some strange reason, I believe them" murmured Jay.
"Why would ever trust those four!" cried Agua. "They've been trying to capture Ultra since we first entered the Lost Forests?"
"And our next adventure after we stopped Auqias and Auqtrias they try to capture Fire Orb," growled Dee.
Jay shook his head. "Pokémon trainers are Pokémon trainer, not matter how evil they are. We have to stop those thieves together."
"What are you saying little boy," growled Kelly.
"Hey! I'm only about three years younger than you Kelly!" growled Jay. "But if we work together we can figure out who stole our Pokémon! Does that sound like a good idea to you?"
Fire Kat stepped forward. "I declare a truce, temporarily anyway. We shall be on team until we find our Pokémon and then"- One of Fire Kat's claws extended and the fired up cat slashed his claw "-That Ultra and Fire Orb are ours!"
"Truce," said Jay. He held out his hand to Kelly.
"Truce," agreed Kelly. She shook Jay's hand.
"Truce," moaned Dee and Agua, holding out their hands to Mike and Nick.
"Truce," agreed Mike and Nick. Mike shook Dee's hand and Nick shook Agua's hand.
"Ultra, ultra, ra," muttered Ultra he held out his hand towards Fire Kat.
"Fine, fine, whatever," growled Fire Kat. He shook Ultra's hand.
"Now we have to look for clues," said Jay. "And the first place to look for that would be in the disappeared Pokémon Center."
"Let's go Team Ultra!" said Kelly. She started to march forward.
"Ultra, ultra?" asked Ultra.
"I'm sorry, Kelly's skills with naming this are just so easy she gives everything a nickname," explained Fire Kat.
"Excuse me miss, but you can't go beyond the cars," said a policewoman.
"Well excuse you, but I am Kelly of Team Rocket, and a thief I am, so I believe I can find some clues these thieves left behind," explained Kelly.
"She's right you know," said Jay.
"You know, she should give me a reason right this second why I shouldn't arrest your thieve-butt," growled the policewoman.
Agua raised an eyebrow. "Who says that?"
"If you think about it, Team Rocket could be the only ones here that could track thieves down," said Jay. "They know how thieves think. You guys just think you know how thieves think. So, I think you should let us check the site."
The policewoman sighed. "Go right ahead. Climb over the cars."
"Ultra tra! Ultra tra!" cheered Ultra.
"I know! Kelly, for a change, did do a good job," said Fire Kat.
Jay, Kelly, and the others entered the area where the center had been.
"The only thing we've seen are tracks," answered the policewoman. She pointed ahead. "Some heading that way, north, and some small bit of tracks leading east, but they dead end not soon after."
Kelly gave a confused look. "This all seems familiar. Where do each tracks lead?"
"They both lead into the forest, the one that didn't dead end is still being tracked by the police, while we aren't doing anything with the other tracks," said the woman.
"That'd make sense," said Jay. "They were just trying to trick the police by leading them the wrong way."
Suddenly, Kelly realized where she remembered all of those. "I've got it."
Chapter Seven: The Enemy Revealed
"You've got what Kelly?" asked Fire Kat.
"I know where to go. That way!" Kelly pointed east.
"Isn't that the way they want us to go so we don't find them?" asked Mike.
"It's the opposite," said Kelly. "That's the way they don't want us to go and we do find them."
Jay raised an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"
"Before, when Team Rocket had been blasted off once again, thanks to you twurps, we found this small shack with tons of plans and stuff in it," explained Kelly. "Plans to steal Pokémon that is. They were going to create a fake Pokémon Center which would really be hover machine of some sort so they could trick trainers into bring their Pokémon there. Then create fake tracks leading to some sort of trap while they took off in the hovering machine to lead back to their base. The base would be the place that Team Rocket was at before."
"Please let that have been the place we were at before," moaned Nick.
Kelly nodded. "Hopefully it will be."
* * * *
Jay, Dee, Agua, Mike, Nick, Kelly, Fire Kat, Fire Orb, and Ultra all walked down the path in the Black Widow Mountains that Team Rocket had taken to get into Wolf Spider City.
"So who do you thinks behind this?" Jay asked Kelly.
She shrugged. "Whoever it was sure is a thieve-genius. They should really join one of Teria's group, Team Rocket or Group Missile."
"Not if we stop Teria, Team Rocket, and Group Missile," corrected Jay.
Kelly laughed. "You three loser trainers and your Fire Orb and Ultra? It'll take more than that to stop the great and mighty Team Rocket! Group Missile on the other hand . . ."
Jay rolled his eyes. "It was stopped before and it could be stopped again."
"Yes, but that was by the great Elite Eight leader, Ash, you are just a child journeying to earn your twelve Pokémon League badges," said Kelly. "There's a difference." She squinted up ahead. "The shack should be somewhere around here. I believe it is only acouple of"-
"There it is!" cried Jay.
There up ahead was a small beaten down shack, with a light coming out of its "windows" and there were obviously there people there talking. On the roof, in green and orange, was a flag with the letter "M" printed on it.
"It's Group Missile," growled Kelly.
Jay moaned. "Not them again. They're almost as worse as you are with better Pokémon! Why did we have to run into them today?"
Kelly glared at Jay. "Nobody's worse than us! Let's go Team Rocket and let's bust this Group Missile party."
Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb, and Ultra backed away, while Mike, Nick, Kelly, and Fire Kat rammed down the door and entered the small shack.
"Prepare for trouble, and it'll be speedy trouble," growled Mike, Nick, Kelly, and Fire Kat. "So just prepare to fight Group Missile!"
Chapter Eight: A Team Rocket/Ultra
Group Missile Showdown
Kike, Mick, and Nelly all shot their heads up from their table. There stood the three missiles up against the four rockets, both ready to launch into a deadly battle.
"Well, well, well," growled Kike. "Look who found our hideout."
"I guess this means it's that time, about," said Mick.
"For us to fight like a raging water-spout," Nelly sneered.
"Prepare for trouble," said Kike.
"And you can make that our trouble," Mick said.
"To bring out the world's devastation," said Nelly.
"To bring this world to our nation!" Kike said.
"To show our evils of truth and love," said Mike.
"While we extend our reaches past the stars and above!" Nelly third.
"Kike!"
"Mick,"
"And Nelly,"
"Group Missile's blast around the galaxy faster than the speed of light!" cried Kike.
"Surrender now, or we'll be forced to fight!" continued Mick.
"That's right!" finished Nelly.
"Oh yeah, well prepare for trouble," growled Mike.
"And make it double, double," began Nick.
"Shut up Team Rocket, we don't have time for this, let's just stop Group Missile and swipe the Pokémon they stole!" growled Fire Kat. "Team Rocket, attack!"
"That won't be easy Team Rocket," growled Nike.
"We have all your Pokémon!" reminded Mick.
"And we also have tons of other trainer's Pokémon too!" Nelly sneered.
"So just give it up!" said Group Missile.
"My team will easily defeat your group, as long as we have me"- Fire Kat glanced out the window "-and the brats on our side! I'd just like to see you guys defeat us!"
Nelly raised an eyebrow. "The brats?"
Jay and Ultra leaped through the window. "Team Ultra blast off at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now." Dee and Fire Orb followed Jay through the window.
"Though we may lose the fight." Agua walked calmly through the door.
Nelly laughed. "Well I see they have a fiery addition to your group, a pathetic, little, Fire Orb."
"One of our Pokémon could easily beat those three," growled Mick. He selected a Poké Ball. "Go, Marowak!"
Jay glared. "Why would your Marowak scare my Ultra, Dee's Fire Orb, and Team Rocket's Fire Kat?"
In the corner of the shack with Ultra and Fire Orb, Fire Kat moaned, "Actually, Marowak's ground attacks are pretty deadly and fatal against electric and fire type, that's all Jay, that's all."
"Arg, Ultra use your ultra shocker attack!" ordered Jay.
"Fire Orb, flamethrower now!" commanded Dee.
"Fire Kat, do your raging fire!" shouted Kelly.
Fire Orb and Fire Kat's deadly fire attacks combined together to create a blast of fire and it raged over Marowak, but with the twirl of its bone, the fire was blown out and the bone Pokémon didn't appear to be hurt. Ultra's ultimate electric move went straight for Marowak but it swung its bone around absorbing the electricity.
"Agility-bone club now!" growled Mick.
Marowak ran towards the trio of Pokémon and slammed his bone against their heads.
"This is almost too easy!" Mick selected three Super Balls. "And now your Pokémon are mine!" He threw the three balls at Ultra, Fire Orb, and Fire Kat.
Chapter Nine: A "Fair" Fight
"Teleportation!" ordered Jay.
Ultra quickly teleported himself and the two fire Pokémon out of the Super Balls' way. He reappeared behind Marowak.
"Psytoss now!" growled Jay.
"Marowak, double team attack," ordered Mick.
But before Marowak could do anything, Ultra sent the bone Pokémon flying backward into the wall.
"This is resolving anything," growled Kelly. "Stop the battle, now!"
"Why should we?" growled Nelly.
"Because I declare a fair fight, for a change," Kelly replied. "If we have a fair battle, using our own Pokémon, we'll decide what happens. My team wins, Team Rocket gets the Pokémon, if we lose, then you get all the credit and their Pokémon." She jerked her finger towards Jay, Dee, and Agua.
Dee shook her head. "They've got to be kidding!"
Jay sighed. "I have an idea. You two get the police over here, I can easily handle Group Missile with my Pokémon."
Dee turned towards Fire Orb. "Fire Orb, listen to Jay, he'll be giving you instructions, okay?"
"Orb." Fire Orb nodded.
"Fine." Agua and Dee slipped off back towards Wolf Spider City.
Mick and Kike shrugged. "Sure, why not. It's a deal, a fair fight. We'll try to find your Pokémon."
Nelly dug around in the pile and tossed Jay seven Super Balls. Kike quickly tossed Team Rocket six Super Balls.
Jay nodded, let's take this outside.
"Marowak, return!" Mick quickly recalled his Pokémon and headed outside.
* * * *
"A Seven-On-Seven battle," growled Nelly.
Jay nodded. "You got it."
"Raichu, Morpher, Ultra!" Nelly threw two Super Balls and one Super Ball revealing her three deadly Pokémon.
"I thought this would be a fair fight!" growled Jay.
"This is fair, because all is fair in love, war, and Pokémon battles brat!" the annoying Nelly sneered.
"Alright Ultra go!" Jay pointed towards the trio of Nelly's Pokémon. Ultra leaped towards them. Then Jay selected two other Super Balls. "Woolie, Psyghost, go!" Jay threw the two Super Balls and out of them appeared:
"Karp, karp, magic, karp, karp!" two MagiKarp flopped around on the ground.
"Oops." Kike, Mick, and Nelly laughed evilly. "I guess we selected the wrong Pokémon for you four. Guess you'll have to use the Pokémon you already have."
Jay glared Group Missile. He turned towards Team Rocket. "Throw the balls away, they all contain MagiKarp." Jay walked forward. "You won't be able to defeat me, Ultra and I will easily win!"
"Group Missile shall win!" growled Nelly. "Ultra, Raichu, thunder attack now!"
"Ultra thunder shield now!" commanded Jay.
Ultra's electric attack surrounded him, putting him in the center of his electric-bubble. But Nelly's Ultra and Raichu sent a powerful thunder that overcharged Ultra's thunder shield and exploded with Jay's Ultra in the center.
"Ultra!" cried Jay. Jay rushed over to Ultra and grabbed his Pokémon.
"Our turn," growled Kelly. Kelly pointed toward the two electric mice. "Fire Kat, you're a feline, get those rats now!"
Fire Kat jumped forward and shot from its mouth a deadly fire blast attack. The blast went straight at the two mice and the deadly blast sent Ultra and Raichu flying back.
"See, I can defeat an Ultra," said Fire Kat.
"Raichu, Ultra, return now!" ordered Nelly.
Kike stepped up. "Nelly, transform your Morpher into a rock type, and we can easily defeat Fire Kat. Because my Pokémon will be easily defeat it. Flamed, go!"
Out appeared the deadly dragon Pokémon and the transforming Morpher, against a little Fire Kat.
Chapter Ten: Just the Pokémon for the Battle
"Flamed, water cannon now," ordered Kike.
"Morpher, transform into Graveler and stop Fire Kat with your rock slide attack!" commanded Nelly.
"Fire Kat, do something now or you won't make it through this next attack!" ordered Kelly. "Do something now!"
Flamed opened its mouth and shot it big blast of water at Fire Kat, sending him flying back. Then the now transformed Morpher leaped into the air and slammed down onto Fire Kat, performing its rockslide attack.
"Fire . . . Kat . . ." Fire Kat fell to the ground in an enormous pain.
"Fire Kat, return!" growled Kelly. She walked over and picked up the injured cat.
Jay took a deep breath. "I guess there's only one Pokémon left. Fire Orb, I choose you!" He turned toward Flamed and Morpher. "Hit them with your best shot!"
Fire Orb yawned and hovered to a tree to rest.
Group Missile began cracking up.
"I guess Jay's not as good as he appears to act! His Pokémon don't even listen to him!" laughed Nelly.
Jay glared at Nelly. "Fire Orb is temporarily Dee's Pokémon which I am borrowing for this little battle."
"Yes, but the rest of his Pokémon ignore him," muttered Nick.
Jay moaned. "If we don't have any Pokémon left then"- Suddenly a thought popped into mind. The only Pokémon he had right now was Ultra. He had room for seven other Pokémon, or just one. Maybe one of his Pokémon was finally listening to him by now. He grabbed his Pokédex and quickly selected one of his disobedient Pokémon.
"What are you going to do now boy," growled Nelly.
Jay selected a Super Ball from his belt.
Mick, Kike, and Nelly all gasped. "He has another Pokémon."
Jay smiled. "That's right." He threw the Super Ball into the air. "Electric Orb, I choose you!"
Out appeared the deadly, electric/ghost Pokémon.
"Elect!" it growled.
Nelly shrugged. "It won't be strong enough with Morpher in its Graveler form."
"Electric Orb, ultimate shocker now! Fry that flying Flamed!" shouted Jay.
"Elect-elect-elect!" Electric Orb charged up and its shock hit Flamed with a deadly blast. Flame fell back in pain.
"Flamed, return," ordered Kike. Before Jay could react, Kike had already selected two Poké Balls. "Charmeleon, Ivysaur, go!"
Mick nodded. "Haunter, go!"
Before Electric Orb stood Morpher, Charmeleon, Ivysaur, and Haunter. And Electric Orb knew he wouldn't be able to stop them all.
"Electric Orb, stop them with a spinning-swift attack!" ordered Jay.
"Full, fury, tackle attack!" shouted Group Missile.
Electric Orb began spinning around and from its body, stars shot towards the attack Morpher, Charmeleon, Ivysaur, and Haunter, but only Charmeleon and Ivysaur were injured, Morpher's strong rock body was hard enough to get injured and the stars went right through Haunter.
"Charmeleon, flamethrower! Ivysaur vine whip!" commanded Kike.
"Reflect it with your light screen!" ordered Jay.
Electric Orb glowed, and when the flamethrower hit the screen it bounced back, burning off all the leaves, and hit Ivysaur.
"Ivy!" cried Ivysaur. It ran around ignited with Charmeleon's flame.
"Ivysaur, return!" growled Kike. "But you can't beat Charmeleon, Haunter, and Morpher as a Graveler!"
"Group Missile will win!" chanted Nelly. "Group Missile will win!"
Chapter Eleven: A Settling Conclusion
"Chain thunderwave, now!" shouted Jay.
Two bolts of electricity shot from Electric Orb and shocked Charmeleon and Haunter. It electrocuted the two Pokémon and then paralyzed them.
"Ultimate shocker now!" growled Jay.
"Elect-electric orb!" shrieked Electric Orb. Thunder and lightning rumbled in the sky above. "Elect!" Electricity stormed from Electric Orb and shocked Charmeleon and Haunter. The enemy Pokémon fell to the ground.
"Return!" ordered Kike and Mick. "It's all up to you Nelly."
"Let's go Electric Orb, let's go!" chanted Team Rocket.
"Morpher, rock slide now," said Nelly.
"Electric Orb, agility, now," said Jay.
Morpher leaped up and attempted to slam into Electric Orb, but Electric Orb speedily evaded and Morpher slammed into a tree. This happened several times before Morpher smashed down a tree. The impact temporarily paralyzed Morpher.
"Now Electric Orb, night shade!" shouted Jay.
From behind Morpher, Electric Orb sent dark waves from his eyes and hit poor Morpher in its Graveler transformation. The attack shocked Morpher and it fainted within seconds.
"Yeah! Electric Orb you did!" cried Jay. "You're listening to me again!"
Nick shrugged. "Of course. Eventually, after battle some gyms, Pokémon that ignore you start to listen to you again."
Mike gave Nick a confused look. "How do you know that?"
"No reason."
From the far off distance, Jay noticed a light source coming this way. It was the people of Wolf Spider City. But did the Rockets and Missiles see them?
"Alright," growled Jay. "Give us back our Pokémon!"
"Electric," growled Electric Orb.
"Ultra, ultra," growled Ultra.
"What the little electric-ones said," growled Fire Kat.
Nelly sighed. "Morpher, return!" Then she stuck her tongue out. "Yeah right. Group Missile, let's escape!"
Group Missile quickly darted into the house, but as they did . . .
"Fearow, dive down at stop them, now!" shouted Dee's voice, from the not far-off-light-source.
"Fear!" Fearow dived down and smashed into Mick, Kike, and Nelly.
"Those are the thieves officer! It's Group Missile." Agua and Dee led the police officers of Wolf Spider City.
Team Rocket laughed. "Looks like Group Missile blew up once again."

Group Missile was deported to Fly Island, where Teria'd probably bail them out, since they were some of his best thieves.
Jay, Dee, Agua, Mike, Nick, and Kelly all received their Pokémon back after the problem was resolved at the Wolf Spider City's Pokémon Center.
"I can't believe we finally have all of our Pokémon!" cried Jay. "Yippee! And now Electric Orb's listening to me again!"
"Well aren't we just the happy little trainer," sneered Agua.
"Now Fire Orb," growled Dee, "next time listen to Jay when he gives you an order, besides I'm only your temporary trainer. Jay will eventually be your trainer, if he ever gets all twelve badges."
Jay glared. "I will as soon as we get of this floating, piece of island."
"Well the ports are north of here, so we can probably get a ship by tomorrow if we ask now," suggested Agua.
Jay nodded. "Alright! We're heading off the Arachnid Island, finally!"
Ultra leaped up in joy. "Ultra, ultra tra!" He gave a small flash attack with joy, which actually blinded Jay.
"Watch where you're flashing Ultra." Jay moaned and fell to the ground.
It seems Jay, Dee, Agua, Fire Orb, and Ultra's adventures on the Arachnid Island are over. Now all they have to do is get off, but it won't be that easy. They and many of the others of the AngelFire disaster are on a cruise ship, but whose it run by? Check it out in the season finale: Bye-Bye Arachnid Island.
