1 Chapter 12: The Storm Passes
Jesse woke to find James' head resting against her shoulder as he slept. It was a small wonder that either of them had got any sleep at all. The rain was still falling gently on the sodden ground but the storm had passed. Jesse knew they should be heading back to the cabin, as Mondo would be wondering where they were. Jesse didn't want to leave just yet. She was enjoying having James all too herself for once. Once they left the cave they would not have this privacy and they would have to keep their relationship a secret. Giovanni would split them up if he knew. Jesse turned back to her partner wrapping her arms round him holding him as he slept on the events of the past few days forgotten. But still something troubled Jesse. Who pushed her and then rescued James from the river? And what of Meowth? They argued a lot of the time but Jesse didn't think of Meowth as just a Pokemon. He was their friend and Jesse cared about him a great deal. Maybe they should keep looking for him but the chances where that he was already back at the cabin. Jesse closed her eyes just wanting a few more moments like this before they had to move.
Meowth sat up and rubbed his eyes taking a few minutes to realised where he was. He looked round for Ash. He was still sleeping. The storm had died down so now they could go back to the cabin and find Jesse and James. Meowth nudged Ash awake.
"Are you sure they'll keep quiet?" Ash asked as they walked along. The rush of courage he had felt last night was fading fast. Ash was beginning to doubt that Jesse and James would go easy on him.
"Dey wouldn't want ta destroy your dreams kid" was all that Meowth would allow. The rain was still falling and Meowth became uncomfortable, as all cats hated water.
"We could find some shelter if you want?" Ash offered.
"No" Meowth replied. Walking along with the twerp instead of fighting with him was different for him also and Meowth was finding it hard to get used to. "I wanna find Jess and Jim straight away"
"You really do care about them don't you?" Ash asked.
"I said I did, didn't I?"
"Yes but I guess I didn't believe you then"
Ash was surprised at the new respect he felt for the cat Pokemon. Meowth had nothing to gain by befriending Jesse and James. They had no money, no home most of the time all they had was each other. Ash realised with shame that Meowth was right. He and his friends did judge them on their actions. Maybe if Meowth were different then Jesse and James would be different too. Ash had thought that they only cared about themselves but he had to admit they had never shown him otherwise. Maybe that was because they were frightened to show him and the others what they were really like. Ash didn't know anything about Jesse and Meowth's backgrounds but he knew that when James tried to be himself he got rejected by his own parents. If Delia rejected Ash then the boy couldn't even imagine what it would do to him. His mother had been supporting him every day of his life. If that support was taken away then he didn't know what he'd do. At the time Ash had said to himself. "Oh that's why James is so evil. Because his parents rejected him" but now Ash started to realise that maybe James hung round with Jesse and Meowth because they liked him as him and they were all real friends like he was with Misty and the other two boys.
"What makes yous believe me now?" Meowth asked jogging Ash from his thoughts.
"You're so determined to get back to them. When Pikachu and me got separated I was so desperate to find him. I'd do anything to be reunited with him. You'd do the same for those two wouldn't you?"
Meowth felt bad at the mention of Pikachu. That day in the Orange Islands when another plan to capture the rat went wrong Meowth and Pikachu found themselves stuck together. After a few fights Meowth came to the realisation that he and Pikachu could have been friends if they had met under different circumstances. Maybe the same would go for the twerp too. Now Pikachu was hurt. Meowth, when he found out about Jesse's 'death' wanted to go and kill something he was that angry and upset. Of course he had to keep strong for James. The twerp's friends, Misty and Brock must have tried to comfort him but that would have been different. Meowth had known Jesse and James for many years and knew just how much they meant to each other. Misty and Brock had known the twerp for what…? Two or three years it must be. They would not know how much Ash and Pikachu's friendship meant to the boy. "We all hurt each other" Meowth said sadly "We hurt Pikachu, so you hurt Jesse. Dis wasn't all you're fault kid"
"Yeah it was" Ash said. "I would have noticed that lame pitfall trap if I hadn't been so upset about loosing the gym battle. What you guys did was a terrible accident. What I did to you was…well there was no excuse for it. If Jesse and James want to take this further then I won't stop them"
This surprised Meowth. Ash, for as long as they had known him had been an immature little kid with an ego almost as big as Gary Oak's. Now he seemed to have grown up a little over night. If Pikachu made it then more good might have come out of this than they previously thought.
At last Ash and Meowth made it to the local Pokemon centre. There they parted as Ash wanted to see Pikachu and Meowth had to call Jesse and James. He was surprised when Mondo answered the phone.
"Meowth" he cried the relief obvious on his face "Where have you been? I've been so worried"
Meowth told Mondo what he'd learned and the boy couldn't believe it. "Jesse always tells me how stupid that kid is? Are you sure Meowth?"
"He confessed Mondo. Now can I speak to Jesse and James? Dat kid wants ta tell dem but dey hafta get over here first"
Mondo frowned "Aren't they with you?"
"What do yous mean?"
"They went out looking for you yesterday"
"Its no good" James wailed, "We're still lost"
They had been wandering round in circles for the past two hours since getting up. "Shut up" Jesse snapped at him then seeing the hurt look on his face her tone softened "Sorry James. We just have to keep moving that's all"
"What about Arbok?" James asked suddenly. "She could use her sense of smell to tell us if we're going to right way"
Jesse shook her head "I left Arbok back at the cabin"
James sighed, "I guess we're lost forever then"
"Its not that bad" Jesse said cheerfully.
"Yes it is" James said, "We have no food, no shelter and its still raining"
"We've got each other," Jesse said putting an arm round him "That's all we've needed before right? We'll be ok we're a team. We've overcome everything that's been thrown our way before why not now?"
"Yeah" James cheered up. "But why are you so happy all of a sudden?"
Back in the old days before Team Rocket James had to be the optimistic one. Jesse was always moaning about not having enough food or whatever.
"Because" Jesse kissed him before answering "I've got you"
James broke away "But you've always had me Jessica"
"But I didn't know that until now did I? If you'd have been honest with me from the start then I would have been happier"
"Oh really?" James giggled, "Why should it be my fault? You could have been honest with me"
"I have my image to think about. You were always a sappy wimp so you had nothing to loose"
"Thank you very much" James said trying to sound hurt but couldn't help smiling. "But Jess do you really wish that I'd told you sooner?"
"Depends" Jesse said stopping for a minute "What age were you when you realised how you felt?"
"14"
"Me too. Can you imagine that? Fourteen years olds fall in and out of love very quickly. If we'd been honest back then, then we might not have had our friendship for so long. That friendship is special to me James. I've never had a friend before and for a long time I didn't think I was ever going to have someone to confide in. I was always frightened I would be a lonely little girl forever"
"You'll never be lonely again Jess" James said taking her in his arms "I'll make sure of that"
"I love you James"
"I love you too Jesse"
They stood holding each other for a few minutes when Jesse could have sworn she heard running water. There was also light peaking from between the trees. "James look" Jesse cried.
"The Pokemon centre" they both said at the same time. They raced towards the lights and found the Pokemon centre and beyond that the waterfall. Now all they had to do was cross to the other side of the river and then the cabin would be about fifteen minutes away.
"We're going to make it" Jesse cheered.
"Uh Jess" James said, "Look" the bridge had been damaged in the storm last night and was leaning dangerously into the waterfall. "We can't cross that"
"This is great" Jesse sighed. "I knew it was too good to be true"
"Don't worry" James smiled "We can call Mondo from the Pokemon centre. He'll just come in the balloon and get us"
"Great" Jesse said. "Let's go"
They got a shock when they walked into the Pokemon centre and found Meowth sitting with Misty and Brock. "Jesse, James" Meowth cried racing over to them. "I just called Mondo. He was so worried about yous and when I found out dat yous went out ta look for me…" the cat's eyes filled with tears "I was so frightened dat something had happened to yous"
"We're fine" Jesse said picking Meowth up and hugging him tightly.
"Ok den what's happened?" he jumped from her arms "Dare is something different about yous twos"
"Team Rocket do seem a little different" Brock agreed.
"Well" James looked shyly at Jesse before continuing "Jess and I…we love each other"
"I knew it!" Misty cried jumping up and down. "Ok then Brock you owe me £10!"
Jesse, James and Meowth exchanged puzzled glances. "When I first met you guys I said that you were either a couple or would be one day. Brock told me I was just being stupid and that you guys fought more than Ash and me do. He said you'd never become a couple. So we made a bet"
Brock looked annoyed and handed Misty the money. These kids sure are weird Meowth thought. Then he remembered why he was here. The twerp had to tell Jesse and James that he was the one who pushed Jesse. At that moment Ash came out of the intensive care unit with Nurse Joy.
"How is Pikachu Ash?" Misty asked.
"He's going to be just fine" Ash said smiling broadly.
"Dats great kid" Meowth said. "But I tink dare is something dat yous hafta discuss with Jesse and James now. Unless ya want ta talk about it in here of course?"
"No we'll go outside" Ash said softly.
Jesse and James frowned and followed the boy outside. Meowth decided to stay inside. He had to make sure that Misty and Brock didn't ask too many questions.
"Well what is it twerp?" Jesse asked once they were far enough into the woods not to be heard.
"I…I was the one who pushed you off that bridge"
There was a shocked silence until Ash continued. "I also trashed you're cabin. I never meant to hurt you guys I was just angry. You could have killed my Pikachu"
Jesse didn't say anything but her blue eyes were filling with tears. Ash didn't understand this. Ok he tried to kill her but he thought Jesse of Team Rocket was tougher than that. James put his arm round her and turned to the boy. James knew why Jesse was upset. The photo her mother gave her was ruined because of Ash and after the pain of thinking that it was James that had pushed her Jesse was a little more sensitive than usual. Ok Meowth had fixed the photo but it was all Jesse had left of her mother and Ash tore it like it was nothing and almost destroyed the friendship between herself and James that Jesse treasured. "You really hate us that much?" Jesse whispered.
"I just wanted to hurt you" Ash said. "You hurt me and Pikachu so I wanted to hurt you"
James' eyes narrowed as Jesse started to cry softly. "You call us evil and you do this. You wanted to hurt us. Well congratulations. You succeeded in bringing about more pain in those few days than we have ever caused you in a life time."
"That's not true" Ash argued, "You guys are always showing up and ruining everything"
"A few traps to catch Pokemon" James shouted. "And then when we have Pokemon battles you sick that rat on us! Even if we're running away you make him shock us. You don't deserve to be called a Pokemon trainer"
"At least I'm not a thief!" Ash shot back. "And if I was I'd make a damn better job than you guys do"
"And why do you think we never succeed?" James demanded
"Coz you're thick" Ash snapped, "Everyone knows what idiots the three of you are"
"Because we don't want to hurt anyone!" James shouted.
Ash was starting to feel bad again now. He had got so angry because they had a go at him. But he deserved it! He knew they weren't bad and now he was being mean to them anyway. Seeing Jesse clinging to James and sobbing made the Pokemon trainer feel worse.
"Well you hurt me and Pikachu!" Ash shouted. He had to admit he was scared. He always thought James to be a wimp but right now he looked anything but a wimp. "You think you're good people? That's a joke. Whenever I see you guys I think oh look here comes the spoilt little dumb ass rich kid, his tart and their flea bitten freak of a Meowth."
As soon as that sentence was out of his mouth Ash regretted it. Jesse uttered a cry, broke away from James and ran off in the direction of the Pokemon centre. Just as Jesse ran away Ash felt a sharp pain in his jaw. He staggered backwards before loosing his balance completely. Ash fell flat on his back.
"You hit me," Ash said in shock looking at the enraged purple haired male standing over him.
James didn't say a word and ran after Jesse. Ash got up how the hell had this turned into a fight? Ash didn't know what he expected but he had hoped it would be something along the lines of him saying sorry and it going back to how it was before all this happened. Now that would never happen. Ash sighed and made his way back to the Pokemon centre.
James raced to catch up with Jesse. She had a good head start on him but when he found her a scream caught in his throat. Jesse was trying to make her way across the rickety bridge. It was swaying under her weight and would give way any minute.
"Jesse!" James screamed, "What are you doing?"
"I want to go back to the cabin. I stay here with him there! God he doesn't even consider us as human beings James."
"I know Jesse" James called. "I'll get Mondo to come and get us. Just please come back here. That bridge isn't safe"
"James" Jesse said in a small voice realising the danger she was in "I'm scared. Get me off of this"
James didn't even hesitate he ran out onto the bridge towards her. The bridge groaned under their weight. Meowth happened to look out of the Pokemon centre window and saw them
"Jesse! James!" he screamed as the bridge started to sway.
