Meowth in the Middle

Jesse-"You know. I'm getting pretty tired. Why don't we rest".

James-"But Jesse, what if the twerps come by? What do we do then?"

Jesse-*** Narrowing her eyes*** "We try and catch their pikachu you

bonehead!"

James-"IF ANYONE'S A BONEHEAD IT'S YOU!!"

Meowth-"Pipe down both of you and stop your squabbling!!"

***They stop fighting only because they here voices***

Jesse-"Those voices sound awfully familiar".

Meowth-"Look! It's them!"

***Jesse and James both look up. They both see them, grab Meowth, and hide

behind a tree***

Ash-"I know we're almost there."

Misty-"Ash, you said that an hour ago! You've got us lost again!"

Ash-"Have not!"

***Brock butts in***

Brock-"Ash, Misty's right".

Ash-"Oh yea? How do you know?"

Brock-"Because that's the same tree we passed half an hour ago!"

Misty-"WHAT?! YOU MEAN THAT ASH HAS BEEN MAKING US GO AROUND IN CIRCLES?!"

***They stop fighting when a net comes out of nowhere and grabs Pikachu***

Pikachu-"Pika pi! Piikkaa!"

Ash-"Pikachu! Whose out there?"

***Team Rocket stands up from behind the bushes. They say there motto***

Ash-"Not you again!"

Jesse-"Yes it's us! We finally got your pikachu!"

***Ash yells at Jesse with a few cuss words***

Jesse-***Gets mad*** "Why you little twerp! How dare you speak to me like

that!! As far as I'm concerned, you

can have your precious pikachu back you little brat!"

***She puts down Pikachu's net and storms away. James and Meowth follow

her***

Jesse-" That brat! Didn't he learn any manners? He isn't supposed to talk to

a lady like that no matter what they do!"

James-"I agree Jesse. But why didn't you take pikachu along with you? Don't

you think that would have taught him a

better lesson?"

Jesse-" I DON'T THINK YOU HEARD ME BACK THERE! I DON'T WANT A SINGLE THING

FROM HIM! I

DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND HOW THE OTHER KIDS HE'S TRAVELING WITH CAN PUT UP WITH

THAT BRAT!!"

Meowth-" Jesse has a point. I don't understand it either".

James-" Jesse, I think you should lay down for a bit".

Jesse-" I suppose you're right. Thanks for comforting me".

***She gets up and walks over to her sleeping bag***

James-" That was a really rotten thing he did to her".

Meowth-" I agree. But how will we get something to cheer her up?"

***They hear rustling in the bushes. They look and see Pikachu walking

toward Jesse. She opens her eyes***

Jesse-"What do you want?"

***Pikachu moves his hand from his back and gives Jesse some flowers. Then

he runs through the bushes and out of

sight***

Jesse-"Did you see that?"

Meowth-"See what?"

Jesse-" What he gave me".

James-" Who gave you what?"

Jesse-" Pikachu".

Meowth-" What has pikachu have to do with anything?"

Jesse-"After everything I've done to that little Pokemon, he cares about

me".

James-"Jesse, what the heck are you talking about?"

***Meowth looks down and sees the flowers by Jesse***

Meowth-" Who gave you the flowers Jesse?"

Jesse-" He did".

James-" Who did?"

Jesse-"Pikachu".

***Jesse and Meowth's mouths both fall open***

Meowth-" You've got to be kidding!"

Jesse-" No. I'm not".

***There is a moment of silence***

Jesse-" This is kind of hard to say. I think I like that Pokemon"

James-"What do you mean?"

Jesse-" I don't think I can try and steal him anymore".

Meowth-" So just what exactly are you trying to say?"

Jesse-" I think we should stop chasing after them".

***Jesse and Meowth stare at each other. Finally James says something***

James-" If that's what you want, that's what we'll do".

Meowth-" Yes we will do that.

***A few days later***

Jesse-"This just isn't working! I think... I think".

James-" What do you think?"

***Jesse looks at both of them***

Jesse-"I think we should go our separate ways".

Meowth-" What do you mean by that?"

Jesse-" I think we should split up".
