Pokemon: Expedition!
Prolouge
In the forest of Mt.moon..................
They laid together in silence. It was still a new
relationship and Jesse and James didn't want to foul it up by going too
fast too soon. But Jesse enjoyed sleeping in James' arms and waking up to
his scent. He usually carried an air of roses and it often rubbed off on her
staying with her through the day. A whiff of her shirt collar around noon was
about enough to keep her walking on air till sundown.....
Either way she was happy.
Who would have thought it could have happen?
It was only last week they were visited by their future children Ruka and
Ryer. If it wasn't for their visit she and James might not have fallen in
love. It was rather ironic that she and James owed it to their children that
they fell for one another.
As the fire began to die down Jesse snuggled up and nestled into
James side.
It was perfect...... until the pack of Beedrill arrived looking for food.
James didn't wake up until it was too late
"AHHHHH! JESSE! WAKE UP!!!" No wait stay there!
He had gotten out of the sleeping bag to get a drink of water just as the
Beedrill swarmed down.
He barely had enough time to zip the sleeping bag closed around Jesse in a
rather feeble attempt to protect her.
He grabbed a pillow and began swinging at the giant insects.
"James! James Let me out of here! JAMES!" Jesse yelled, flopping about like
a beached salmon inside the sleeping bag.
"What's goin' on!?!" Meowth yelled from where he had been sleeping in a tree.
"Mewoth get out of here! Go get help!"
Meowth was confused "Huh wha?!?!?!? But where????"
James yelled. "ANYWHERE BUT HERE! NOW GO!"
Meowth raced off leaving James alone to battle off the Beedrill swarm.
"Get out of here! Go! Shoo!" He swung wildly with his pillow but it was
futile there was too many. He lost count how many times he had been stung.
His body screamed in pain and he could feel his limbs getting heavy, the
poison of the spears beginning to work in his blood.
"Y-Y-You won't h-h-hurt Jesse!!!" He said weakly as he slumped over the
struggling Jesse, still closed into the sleeping bag.
"James!" she screamed. "James what in hell is going on!" She finally tore
open the bag, bursting the zipper, to see James bloodied and fading fast.
"James!" She screamed, grabbing the broken sleeping bag and covering them
both from the swarming Beedrill.
"James you idiot! You absolute, freaking idiot!" She cried, scooping him into
her arms. His cyan blue eyes barely opened.
"I..I'm sorry Jesse. I..I'll tell Ruka and Ryer I..I'm sorry..."
He mumbled weakly "I..I love you."
"No! James don't do this to me! Please don't leave me!" she yelled. "I didn't
mean it! You really aren't that much of an idiot! James, did you hear me!?
Don't do this to me!"
Then she heard something she has never heard in her life. A loud scream, a
scream of a monster she'd never heard before.
Seriously risking a deadly Beedrill sting she lifted a corner of the sleeping
bag and peered out to see a figure looming just over the horizon. The sunrise
flared blindingly behind him.
The Beedrill took to attacking the irrisistable target but soon found out it
was only an illision. They stabbed at thin air.
That same figure appeared beside Jesse and James. He pulled back the hood
of his robe to reveal a friendly faced young man in his mid-twenties with
short black hair. He was dressed entirely in brown.
"Can I be of some assistance?" he asked.
Jesse mumbled a few incoherent words, tears streaming down her face.
He put a hand to her mouth.
"Don't speak. Look after your friend. I'll handle your guests."
He walked toward the swarm that was returning for a new attack. He
stood calm and waitied for them to attack.
'What is he doing? He doesn't stand a chance!' Jesse thought, cradling James'
limp body.
The Beedrill swarmed down and the man attacked. He pulled out a shiny metal
cylinder and flicked a switched. A brilliant light blue beam, lanced from the
hilt of the handle. It hummed with energy.
With lighting quick swipes he took down several Beedrill.
He dodged and flipped and moved his hand forward to some attacking Beedrill
The creatures seemed to be pushed back, several of them colliding with the
trees.
It wasn't long before the Beedrill realized they were outclassed and left.
The blade retreated back into the cylinder, and the young man returned to
Jesse and James.
She was sobbing, clutching his head to her chest.
"He's getting colder..." she whimpered.
The young man took James from her arms and laid him flat against the ground.
He held a hand to his forhead. He closed his eyes.
James twitched on the ground, the entire length of his body stiffened as
black poison began to seep from his body. The black fluid drained from his
pores, forming a puddle underneath him.
The poison had a strong foul smell, forcing Jesse to cover her mouth and nose,
cringing. Several of the punctures left by the Beedrill stings had begun to
heal over when the young man opened his eyes again.
James grogily sat up. The young man pushed him back into Jesse's arms.
"No, my friend. You must rest. The healing only took away the poison and
damage. It didn't restore your vigor."
James trembled, feeling chilled and shaken as Jesse cradled him in her
arms, wrapping a blanket over him.
"T-t-thank you." James mumbled. "W-Who are you?"
The young man smiled. "My name is Kal Vander!"
"Where are you from?" Jesse asked "You don't look like you're from around
here."
Kal smiled. "Well you could say that. You could also say I'm from a place far
far away. Well. I must be on my way. This is a new place and I want to get to
know it better!"
Jesse hugged James closer. "Go?" she asked. "Now?"
"I have a lot of Exploring to do!" Kal replied.
"Will we ever see you again?"
Kal stopped and looked at them, "Maybe, who knows.." He put his hood on and
left.
"You mean to tell me Mom and Dad still haven't reconized you?!?" Ryer
shouted. Kal sipped his tea and gazed into the fire.
"Ryer, a good friend once told me the truths we cling to depend on out point
of view."
Ruka cut in "So what does this have to do with the story?"
Kal smiled. "Absolutely nothing!" he exclaimed with a laugh.
He tucked the twins into their sleeping bags.
"Go to sleep." he said. "You have a long day ahead of you. Tomorrow you start
the greatest adventure of your life!"
Ruka smiled "The Pokemon Expedition to the Outer Territoires! How do you know
we'll get chosen? You're not bribing the judges for us are you? I may be a
Rocket but I don't want to cheat to get picked!"
Kal smiled. "No I am not bribing the judges and going on the Expedition is
unavoidable. It is your destiny!"
Then Kal vanished from their room. A few seconds later Jesse emerged from the
door.
"Hey you two! Who were you talking to?" She asked
"No one Mom. We were just discussing the test to get chosen tomorow!" Ruka
said quickly.
Jesse smiled. "I'm so proud of you two. You'll do great! You're Team Rocket,
after all." she kissed each of her children good night and turned out the
lights.
She met James in the hallway and hugged him.
"James I want them so badly to go on that trip!" she said.
James hugged her tightly, rubbing a hand across her back. "I know Hon. It's
all up to them though. I just hope they wont repeat our mistakes. Do you
think we told them enough stories about the lameness and danger of holes?"
And so Team Rocket went to sleep unaware that their children, the second Team
Rocket would be a part of an expedition for the history books.
An expedition to find new Pokemon.
