When we Band Together
ELP: Sorry about the miss-spelling of a name. Jesse should be Jessie. Okay, on to the next chapter! I own nothing.

Ken yanked open the door, and stepped inside. The coral home went far back. The walls were aquariums, all loaded with water type Pokemon. Jessie stared at a Starmie. It seemed happier then the normal ones. A soft laugh came from in front of them. They all looked up at the new person. She had long, orange-red hair, beautiful blue eyes, and pale features. She wore a light blue waist shawl that wrapped around her waist, having a bathing suit underneath. She had a blue T-shirt on.
" Welcome to my home. Sure, it's not modern, but I need only what is here." She stated, smiling. She noticed Misty, going blank.
" Master Oki?" Ken asked, crossing his arms in front of him. Oki nodded.
" Kiddo?" She asked Misty, walking closer. Misty hugged her.
" Mum......" Oki smiled.
" I haven't seen you in such a long time! So many questions to ask, so little time in which to ask them. Let us start simply. How are you?" Misty smiled.
" Good. These are my new friends. That's Miyako, there's James, Jessie has long hair, and that's Ken." Oki smiled.
" Nice to meet you all. I am Sumi Hana Oki, master of water. Lorelei is my younger and more known sister. Now, I'd like to ask something else. You, boy, have something odd about you. You seek something....... Wisdom? Advice? No, I see now. You need assistance." Ken nodded.
" Yes. We need you to come with us." Oki smiled.
" Well, let me summon a friend...... Vaporeon!" She called, turning to her large aquarium. None of the aquariums had a lid, so it was all open top. Vaporeon appeared from within the water, materializing quickly. It smiled and made a happy sound.
" Would you care to come with me?" Vaporeon leapt into it's Pokeball, making a loud sound of reassurance. Oki smiled.
" Okay. I'll take Blastoise, Vaporeon, Starmie, Gyarados, Seaking and Golduck. Where to, young ones?" Ken smiled.
" I figured we'd rest here for the night. Then, tomorrow, we take to Andes Mountains." That's when Jessie started freaking out.
" NO WAY!!!!! I AM NOT GOING UP THERE!!!!" She yelled, backing up a bit. Ken blinked.
" Why not?" He asked. Jessie went pale.
" Mom went up there and never came back......." She whispered, taking off out the door. James ran after her.
" Jessie, wait!" He exclaimed, following her under a tree into shade. She was crying. He knelt down beside her, taking her hand in his.
" Jessie, nothing bad is going to happen, you know that. I
can even bet we'll find your mom!" James exclaimed, looking on the bright side.
Jessie looked up.
" But what if we don't? What if something happens? Who will bail us out this time?" James smiled.
" Don't worry! Ken is psychic. He can fly! We're going to have some of the most powerful trainers around us. Misty's mother, Sumi Hana Oki, rules the water! Nothing will happen. I can bet my life on it." Jessie smiled, hugging James.
" Thanks. You always seem to cheer stuff up....." Meowth smiled, leaping over to them.
" Good thing you two got cheered up. I was beginning to worry that I might have to act depressed!" They laughed, standing up. They walked back into the coral, where Misty and Oki were talking, each drinking tea. Jessie blinked.
" Where's Ken?" She asked, looking around. Oki smiled up at her.
" He said he was going to rest. He's in the bedroom down the hall. Just turned right at the first coral." Jessie nodded. She and James walked into Ken's room, looking around. He was laying on a bed, eyes closed, hands behind his head. Jessie shook him a bit.
" Hey, cousin, wake up." Ken groaned, opening his eyes slightly. They were glazed over.
" Yes?" He said groggily, sitting up a bit.
" Well, I've changed my mind. I'll come with you." Ken smiled.
" Okay. Sorry it made you feel bad......." Ken was cut off.
" But, if anything happens, I get to kill you." Ken's eyes widened.
" Um, I'll just go to sleep now...." James smiled.
" Don't worry, you'll get used to it." SMACK! There comes the mallet, James being slammed into the floor. Jessie smiled down at him.
" See you two clog heads later." With that, Jessie walked out of the room, swinging her mallet around. James got off the floor, brushing himself off. Ken stared.
" And I thought Miyako was insane. Get some rest, it's nightfall. Tomorrow is gonna be crazy." James nodded, and walked out. Jessie and James curled up in their sleeping bags, Meowth having his little cat-basket and a tiny blanket. Misty and Miyako shared a room, while Ken was sleeping in the same room. Oki had her own room.
In the morning, they all packed up. They walked out the door, and stared across the Youma sea. Ash and the others were waiting impatiently.
" Let us go see them."
