"Your highness? *knock knock* Your highness?!"
"Just let me sleep ten more hours..." Kuzco moaned, grabbing his pillow.
"Your highness?" The short guy knocked again, and was startled when Kuzco swung upon the door, in his pajamas.
"WHAT?" He snapped.
"Um...forgive me, your highness....but......but..."
Kuzco cocked his head at the babbeling guy. "What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost.."
"I think I have, your majesty...you just...might want to take a look outside.." He said and ran off.
Kuzco looked after him, then sighed. "Probably another llama traffic jam or something. I'll check it out AFTER I get dressed." He said, and put on his regular emperor cloths. He then walked out the door of the castle. "Ok, what's the problem here?" He said, as a dozen faces in the crowd turned around to him.
A man ran up to him. "Your highness! There's some un-identified object here!"
"Is it an alien? Is it a ghost? Who is that boy?" Various people were talking.
Ok, so it's not a traffic jam...but it does look interesting...Kuzco thought, then started pushing the crowd aside. "Move out of the way, Emperor coming through! And watch the robes please..." He got to the edge of the crowd to see what everyone was looking at. A vehicle, which looked too high tech for their civelization and time was crashed in the middle of the market road. Lying on the ground was a young boy with black hair who was unconcious, and lying next to him, was his Pikachu, aslo unconcious.
Kuzco studied both of them. "It's a boy! And an incredably overgrown rat!" He looked back and forth at his servants. "Well, don't just stand there! Bring them into the palace! They could be seriously hurt! Let's move!" He yelled at them as they picked up the boy and the Pikachu and carried them into the palace. Kuzco turned back to the crowd. "All right people, show's over! Get back to work!" He turned and followed his servants and gaurds inside.

"Ow....my head.....what happened..." Ash groaned as he opened his eyes.
Someone poked his head in front of Ash. "Hello..." He said, startling him.
"AHH!" Ash jumped back in the bed and stared at the long black haired teen. "Who...who are you?"
The eighteen year old boy rolled his eyes. "Please....you don't know me?! Everybody knows me! I mean...after all, I AM the emperor..."
"Emperor? Where...where am I?"
"My kingdom..." the boy said, studying his nails. "What's your name?"
"Um....Ash...Ash Ketchum...I'm from Pallet Town."
"Huh? Never heard of it. I'm Kuzco.." He said, shaking his hand. "So, how old are ya Ash?"
"Fourteen..."
"Ooh...aren't we a big boy...So...I gotta few questions for ya, Assshhh, why were you found outside my kingdom, unconcious and with some sorta machine? And what that's little yellow rat you got there?"
"Pikachu?" Ash glared at Kuzco, not liking him one bit at the moment. "He's no rat..."
"Looks like a rat to me. So, are you gonna answer my other questions? Or not..."
Ash continued glaring at him. "That machine is a time machine...I'm from the future..." He said proudly.
Kuzco's mouth dropped, then he burst out laughing. "The future?!! Oh come on..ya've got to be kidding me...come on, really..now, where ya from?"
Ash looked at Kuzco. "That's just what I said! The future! Don't you believe me? I mean, where am I? Ok then, this will proove I'm from the future..do you know what Television is?"
"Tele-what?"
"HA! See! I told you!"
Kuzco looked at Ash with wide eyes. "You mean....you really are from the future.....how far?"
"I don't know...I didn't get a chance to set the time before I got here. But....from what this place looks like, it's really far into the future..."
"Hey...the palace is....wait...you mean to tell me that you've got BETTER things in the future than this?"
"Well, yeah....I mean, technology grows..."
Kuzco shook his head, then he had a great idea. "Can you....take...me to this time of your's?"
"Well, I.."
Kuzco grabbed his hands and started to beg. "Please! I'll do anything I'll....wait.." He stood up. "I'm the emperor...I don't beg...I order! Alright...I ORDER you to take me to the future..."
Ash blinked, and took Pikachu into his arms. "Well.....I guess I COULD take you to the future..."
"Oh thank you thank you thank you.."
"But.."
"But?"
"But....the time machine's in a pretty bad state...I don't know if I could fix it..."
Kuzco's mouth dropped open, and his expression saddened. "But....there's gotta be some way we can fix it..."
"Well, do you know anyone who's good at fixing things?"
"No...I don't actually..and even if I did, it might be over their heads, since it IS from the future."
Ash nodded. "Can I see it? I mean, where is the time machine now?"
"Oh, it's still outside. Come on, I'll show it to ya."
Ash continued to hold Pikachu as he got up and followed Kuzco out of the room and outside....
