C. Cowboy: Well sorry it took so long to get this back rolling. Hard to fight the curse of writers block. Here we go! The traitor is revealed in this one! BTW just a few more chapters to go!!!
CHAPTER 10: YOU NEVER DESERVED HER
F. Ash made a dash for the hummer as A.J. and Pikachu jumped in with him. The hummer then flew out the opening of the cavern going around ninety. "Think we can catch them before the can go back to the future?" A.J. asked his father as he tried to pill himself out of the seat. "Yeah, I still have the key to the time drive with me. I thought something like this might happen when Giovanni told me that we might have a traitor. What I want to know is who. I trust everyone, but someone had to let him on the L-1!" F. Ash then looked down at the console, "There!" A.J. looked puzzled at his dad, "Huh?" "Got the tracking devise! It's stopped moving a few miles north by north west!" the Master said as he sped up even faster.
The hummer stopped a few yards away form the jet and F. Ash could tell that Giovanni and his Team Rocket was in there. "All right, son, I want you and Pikachu to make a diversion so I can sneak into the jet and get the kids out." A.J. and pikachu nodded and went to make their move when F. Ash grabbed his son's arm. "Here, this will bring you look." F. Ash said as he took his prized Pokemon League hat off and placed it on his son's head. A.J was in shock. That was his dad's favorite hat. Sometimes he thought it was attached to his skull. "But Dad, you've had this since before you stated you first Pokemon journey!" F. Ash smiled "…and now you'll have it before your Pokemon journey. 'Sides I always wanted to give it to you… when I thought you were ready… to become a Master." A.J. couldn't believe what he heard. His dad was telling him what he only dreamed of hearing from him. "As soon as we get back and you spend some time with your mother, son, I want you to get your eight badges, win the Indigo Tournament, and then defeat and surpass me. I know you can do it." F. Ash said as a tear of pride ran down his face. "Now go show those Rockets what happens when you mess with a Ketchum!"
A.J. and Pikachu disappeared around the side of the jet and
then a frightful scream made F. Ash run behind them. He then slowly inter the
jet and was surprised to see Giovanni with his two Rockets by his side on one side
of the jet and on the other side was Ash, Misty (with Togapi in her arms), A.J.,
and Pikachu trapped in a plastic cage. F. Ash then raised his hands pretending
to give up. "Tell me one thing, Giovanni, Who was the turncoat?" Giovanni
smiled evilly, "I thought you would ask me that." Just then a short yet
familiar figure appeared by Giovanni's side. F. Ash couldn't believe his eyes. "TOGATIC???
WHY???" Togatic smiled wickedly at F. Ash and then at the younger Ash. Because
you never deserved Mommy. Misty just looked at her Togapi with tears in her
eyes as Y. Ash tried to comfort her. F. Ash was still in shock, "What are you
talking about, old friend?" Togatic glared hatefully at him; do you honestly
think that Mommy's disease only hit her a few times? It hit her many times! Buy
you were too busy playing hero to notice! She always did her best to hide it
from you! Just like how her and A.J. always cried themselves to sleep every
time you left in the middle of the night to fight Team Rocket, and not knowing
if they would ever see you alive again! It was always like that, your precious 'Pokemon
League' was always more important to you then your OWN FAMILY!!! YOU
NEVER DESERVED HER!!!
F. Ash looked like he had been splashed with a bucket of ice water. He looked back at A.J., who had his head down trying to hide his tears. When F. Ash saw this he knew it was true. He then turned deathly serious. He threw a Pokeball and released his Bulbasaur, and ordered it to razor leaf the cage. When the plastic broke, he looked at his son, "Get them out of here. Take the Hummer back to your Uncle Gary and comeback with help." A.J. started to protest when his father looked at him like he never looked at him before, "I SAID GO, NOW!!!" A.J. stepped back in shock and then turned and signaled the others to follow him outside.
Once F. Ash was satisfied that they got away, he looked hatefully at Giovanni, "One way or another this ends right here, and right now… Dad."
