THE DAY BEFORE HERR'S POKEMON ADVENTURE

Disclaimer-*is unconscious*

James-*is holding a mallet*

Peggi-^_^; Now the disclaimer can't say 'Peggi doesn't own Pokémon'!

Marik-Well, now it doesn't have to.

Peggi-How come?

All-*point to 3 lines above where Peggi first speaks*

Peggi-*facefault* I just can't win.

Lerisia and Kagome-He he he.

Peggi-Lemme guess. You're here to take over my fic and to make me miserable.

Lerisia-Wow!

Kagome-You must be psychic!

Peggi-I have a fic to do now. I'll deal with you later.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~

they arrive at the Pokémon Center close to dusk. They hadn't realized that the festival was so far out of city limits. As they walked in they were greeted by a Nurse Joy.

Nurse Joy-Hi there!

As always, Brock went into another 'Oh my God it's a girl' phases, and Misty, as always, pulled him away by the ear. Just as Ash was about to ask if she would heal their Pokémon, Officer Jenny rushed in with a stretcher. On the stretcher was not a needy Pokémon, but instead lay a wounded trainer.

Nurse Joy-this is a Pokémon Center! The hospital is.

Officer Jenny-Too far away!

Nurse Joy-Was it them?

Officer Jenny-I think so.

They rushed the trainer into the back.

Tracey-I wonder what's going on.

James-Hey! Look at this!

There was a newspaper on the front desk, and the cover said, in big bold letters, 'TEAM ROCKET STRIKES AGAIN'. James read the article out loud.

(A/N:below is just a news clip type thing that may be considered PG to some parents.I'm not sure why, but one of my friends advised me to rate the following clip as PG. Thank you kuro-tora!)

James-'The notorious duo of Team Rocket strike again. This time it was a local trainer. All trainers should be on alert. All officers know is that this male-female duo has stolen the Pokémon of hundreds of trainers across the nation. Some of the victims have claimed that the female member of the group challenged them to a battle while the other member attacked them from behind. Most victims were knocked unconscious by the supposed male member, and when they woke up all of their Pokémon had been stolen. Others have complained of pick pocketing, and those in the third group were store owners who were held at gun/knife point.'

James stopped reading.

James-You don't think it was Cassidy and Butch, do you?

Jessie-It doesn't seem like their style.

Meowth-I wonder who it was.

Nurse Joy walked into the lobby again.

Nurse Joy-Sorry about that. What did you need?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

All seven of them were in the back. Ash was playing a card game with Brock while Misty was having a videogame Pokébattle with Jessie, who was losing badly. Tracey and Meowth were sound asleep, and James was staring out the window looking at nothing in particular.

Jessie-Argh!

Jessie had lost the Pokébattle and was throwing a hissyfit while Misty was dancing around proudly.

Brock-Seven?

Ash-Go fish.

Misty looked over at James who hadn't moved from his window spot in hours.

Misty-Jessie, what's up with him?

Jessie looked over at him. She shrugged her shoulders.

Jessie-I dunno.you mean the staring at nothing for hours, right?

Misty-Yeah.

Jessie-He's been doing that for quite some time now. All I know is, he's got somethin' on his mind.

Misty-How do you know?

Jessie-Just watch.

She walked up to him until she was no more than a foot away.

Jessie-James, you're such an idiot.

She had said it in a normal voice, and he didn't budge.

Jessie-See?

Misty nodded. Ash jumped up on the card table and began to do a victory dance, managing to knock over their drinks, chips, and the deck of cards.

Misty-It was just 'Go Fish'!

Ash-Yeah, but I WON!!!

Jessie-He did that when he beat us at Pokébattles, didn't he?

Misty-Uh huh.

They watched as he embarrassed himself further by singing 'Macho Man' and prancing around the room.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

It was just after midnight and everyone was sound asleep. The only sound to be heard was the sound of footsteps. The dangerous Team Rocket duo was in the Pokémon center. Pikachu's ears twitched as he bounded off to investigate the noise. The female member of the group grabbed the yellow rodent Pokémon.

Female Member-Hey! Look at this Pikachu!
