C. Cowboy: Sorry it took so long to get this chapter done. Finals week at college and I didn't get time to work on every thing. You try to write four stories at one time and see how confused you get. On with the story. BTW this is the real chapter five!
"So he got away?" Giovanni said coldly to two guards. They both nodded unsure of his reaction. "That will be all." They both sighed out of relief and started to leave. Giovanni pressed a button on his desk, "Send in Butch and Cassidy."
A few minutes later, the two Rocket commanders walked in, "You call, Sir?" Giovanni looked at the two, "We've had… difficulties with the Ketchum plan. It seems the boy's older self rescued him before we could even brain wash him." Should we go back in time and off him when he can't be rescued?" Asked Butch. Giovanni shook his head, "No, it won't do any good. The boy's in our time right now. If you go back and kill him, nothing can stop Master Ketchum from taking the boy back and replacing him." Butch and Cassidy looked at each other, "So what do we do Boss?" Giovanni smiled "We go back and destroy his reason for fighting."
Ashley, Pikachu, and his younger self walked side by side back toward Master Ketchum's base. "I… I can't believe she has to go like that. It's not fare." Young Ash said though his tears. Ashley put a hand on his shoulder, "Don't count Mist out yet!" Ash looked up at his older self and nodded, "I wish Misty could see this, I can't believe I actually become a Pokemon Master!" Ashley stuck his chest out "High Master of the Indigo League, Leader of the Elite Six, and undefeated for well over ten years!" Ash's eyes went wide as Ashley added one more thing, "And she WILL get to see me, when we take you home." Ash got a confused look on his face. "Here's the plan, Tonight Me, Gary and A.J. will brake into Team Rocket's Base, destroy their Time Machine, take their plans for the Machine, and use it to install a time travel program for the L-1." Ash looked even more confused "What's this 'L-1' and who is this A.J.?" Ashley smiled, "L-1 stands for Lugia 1, my personal stealth aircraft. Its top speed is Mach 5, and it can't be detected on any kind of radar! Jessie and James gave it to me and Mist for a wedding present. As for A.J., you'll see when we get back to base." Ash thought for a second of all the machines that the Jessie and James he knew had made trying to catch his Pikachu, and cringed at the thought of flying in a jet they made. He continued to think until Ashley broke the silence, "Any thought on when you're going to tell your Misty how you feel?" Ash just dropped his head as Pikachu ran a head. "B…but what if she doesn't feel the same way?" Ashley let out a laugh, "You haven't figured it out yet? Misty was right; I was a blockhead! But if you need MORE proof that she cares about you, look at that boy up there, playing with Pikachu." Ash looked up and saw a young eleven-year-old boy playing with the older yet still playful Pokemon. "He was born the same year I became a Pokemon Master. It was Misty's idea to name him Ashley Ketchum Jr." Ash turned white as snow, "I…I'm going to be… a Dad?" Ashley nodded as he remembered the day A.J. was born…
FLASH BACK
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Gary, Brock, Pikachu, Jessie, and James waited impatiently outside in the emergency room. Finally the door flew open as the nurse pushed a wheelchair with a limp Ash out, "WE'VE GOT A DOWNED DADDY!" everyone got up "I thought Ash was tougher then that!" Exclaimed Jessie but the nurse cut her off, "Oh no! He didn't pass out! The Mom snuck in a mallet and let her pain and frustration out with a six rapid blows to the head. He didn't stand a chance."
Ash finally came to and ran back in to where Misty was delivering their son. Ash dashed back into the operating room. When he got there, Misty was no longer in pain, but was smiling and holding a little, orangey-red headed bundle of joy. Ash leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, "Here, Mr. Pokemon Master, meet your son, Ash Jr." She said as she handed the baby to the obviously unnerved Pokemon Master, "I'm a Daddy. I'm a Daddy!" Ash said with tears of joy running down his face, "and you, little A.J., you're going to be the World's Greatest Pokemon Master, even greater then your Dad!"
END OF FLASH BACK
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hello? Anybody home?" Ash asked his older self as he snapped out of his memory. "Yeah just thinking back, that's all."
Ashley then looked up and called his son, "A.J., COME OVER HERE FOR SEC.!" A.J. responded and walked over to the two Ash's and looked at the younger one, "So, you're going to grow up to be my Dad, huh?" Ash scratched the back of his head and blushed. Ashley looked at A.J., "We pull out in a hour, and we're going to knock Team Rocket down a notch or two!"
Back at Team Rocket H.Q., Butch and Cassidy were about to go through the Time Portal when Giovanni walked up beside them, "I'll command this operation from the field. I can't afford a screw up at this point in the Game. Remember we are just after the girl, but kill anyone or anything that gets in your way." With that the three walk into the portal, into the past.
TO BE CONTINUED…
C. Cowboy: well another one down, God only knows how many
more to go! What do you think so far? Can Ash and his future self stop Team
Rockets before they do something that will stop Ash from becoming a Pokemon
Master? You know the drill.
