Chapter 4: The Pokemon Magic Tournament

            It was already getting into night time and they gang decide they should camp out for the night.

            "I've got the last of the wood!" Max said as he ran to Serena.

"Very good, Max!" Serena put the last pieces of firewood in the middle of them and casted, "FIREBALL!"

            A fireball sprung from her hand as it began the fire.

Now was a good time as any to ask his cousin about her magic. "Serena, how did you learn so much magic?"

            "I learned it for the basics for my journey. I didn't know I was going to get Pichu so my friend Raye thought I'd  be helpless if I didn't have a pokemon so there, I studied a magic book for a week before I set out on my journey!"

            "Studying?" Her cousin scratched his head, "Yeah, never knew you ever studied in your life."

"I can if I wanted to ya know!"

            "Yeah, if you wanted to."

"Now you take that back..."

            May and Max looked at each other and started laughing as did Pikachu and Pichu. Later, Ash and Serena joined them as they had a whole laughing contest together.

____________________________________________________________________

            After hours of  chatting, laughing, and eating, they 4 of them finally went to bed as the fire came to a smoldering halt. Pichu snuggled up against Pikachu as they slept in between the two cousins. This past 2 days made the two connect. Like brothers almost.

            Now this was a perfect time to snatch their pokemon.

Jesse was peeking at them from afar as James and Meowth had mythical books shrouding all around them.

            "I see now!" James whispered. "Neo-Queen Serenity had all sorts of powers including the ability to talk to her pokemon...." His eyes turned into star shapes. "And the impeccable beauty!"

            Jesse just stood there on her knees silently growling, "I'll teach her for capturing my shadow.."

            A long glove hand appeared and snatched the Pichu first then the Pikachu silently as the Pichu called out, "PICHU! PICHU PICHU!!(Serena! Help us!!)"

            Serena and the others woke up with a start and looked as the two giant gloves hands entered the bushes as a woman's laughter erupted them.

            "Who's there?!" Ash demanded.

The bushes flew off by some unknown wind as Jesse began the motto,

"To protect the world from devestation---"

            "Meowth, how is there any relation that the twerp could be related to such a beauty?" the blue haired boy asked the pokemon.

            "HELLO?!" Jesse yelled at them as she had the electric pokemon in the electric glass jars which could absorbed their electricity every time they would try to get out. "THE MOTTO!"

            "Don't waste our time, Jesse," Serena told them.

She turned angrily at the lunarian, "Thanks to your stupid Shadow Snap spell, I had to let go of the feeling of my arms and legs! You'll pay for that as I'm about to steal your Pichu away!"

            As she stood there, laughing like she already won, Serena shook her finger. "Tsk, tsk, tsk."

She snapped as the glass jars shattered and the two pokemon were free.

            "How did you?--?! That's supposed to be unbreakable! Not to mention expensive...And how did you know my name?!"

            "I know everything...and I want to know something more..."  She looked over to the Meowth. "Excuse, Meowth?"

            The cat pokemon looked at her, "You talkin' to me?"

"Yeah, could I ask you a question?" She walked over to it and kneeled. "Are those my pictures in your books?"

            "No! No!" James chuckled nervously as he hid them all behind the bush. "nothing of the sort! Now what was your question?"

            "Could you kindly tell me how to contact your boss? I'd be very appreciative!"

"Fat Chance!" Jesse told her as she threw her pokeball. "Go ARBOK!"

            But the next thing you knew was that Serena was petting away at Arbok on the stomach as the snake pokemon enjoyed it.

            "You're not supposed to do that Arbok! Attack them and take the Pikachu and Pichu!!"

Serena stopped petting the Arbok for a second and turned back to the boys. "Well, any hope?"

            "We would love to do anything for ya, Serena but these clueless bozos can't even remember where the nearest pokemon centa is at. "

            The girl sighed as James and the 2 pokemon comforted her.

"Don't cry! We'll find out right away for you!"

            The others, Ash, May, Max, Pikachu and Pichu all sweat dropped at the sight they were seeing.

"Uh...Ash, is it me or do I see Team Rocket being friendly to your cousin?" May asked him nervously.

            Ash chuckled nervously, "This is a sight I'd never see in a million years."

Serena sat in Indian style and crossed her arms. She sighed," Very well... Let's go guys."

            "Wait a second, you're not getting away from us that easily!" roared Jesse.

As James and Meowth helped Serena up with her friends feeling awkward, she looked at them, "You guys are nice, so sorry to do this..."

            "DIL BRAND!!"

            A giant explosion sent the 3 with Arbok shooting into space.

"I can't stand this!!" Jesse complained.

"She called us nice!" cooed James.

"Yeah! More steps closer to get her to notice me!"

            "LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET'S BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" came Jesse's voice as they disappeared in their famous twinkle.

            "Pichu Pichu Pi!(Now that's powerful Magic!)"

Serena looked at them with a smile but only to be interrupted by a pamphlet that was blown onto her face as she removed it.

            The others came over to her as she shrieked in joy, "A pokemon tournament?!"

"Pokemon tournament? Where? Where?!"

            Ash took the pamphlet as he read out loud for everyone:

Calling all Trainers! Tulip Town's 45th annual Pokemon Wizard and Witch Tournament is coming up in a 2 days! Will you be the one to win the Magic cup?

            First Prize:

An outstanding Trophy and...

            "Any wish you want?!"

"Any wish! How cool!"

            "But don't you have to have at least 5 pokemon to enter?" Max asked.

"Pika! Pikachu! Pika Pika! (We can solve that problem!)"

            They all looked at Ash's Pikachu but it shrugged at them. "Pi Pikachu Pika Pika. (That wasn't me)"

            "Pikachu said it didn't say that..." Serena told her friends, "Then who did?"

They heard rustling in the bushes and saw a group of pokemon come out of the bushes. Ash's Pikachu and Ash himself smiled at the sight of them. Those pokemon are waaay familiar!

            IT was the clones of Pikachu, Meowth, Ninetales, and a Charizard came out to greet them.

"You're the clones!" Ash stepped up to them.

            Ash's Pikachu stepped up to the clone Pikachu and greeted, "Pika! Pikachu! Pikachu Pika!(It's been awhile!)"

            "Pichu? (Pikachu?)"

Pikachu turned and urged it to come over to meet the his clone.

            "What are you guys doing here?" Serena asked them.

The clone Charizard came up to her and handed her 4 pokeballs, obviously it was theirs as it looked to it's friends.

            The Meowth stepped up and did the talking, "Meow Meow! Meow Meow meow meow! Meow Meow Meow Meow! (We'll act as your tournament pokemon if you enter the tournament!)"

            "You want me to enter the tournament? Really?"

"Pika! Pikachu! Pika Pika! Chu! Pikachu!( Not us, Mewtwo does!)"

            "Mewtwo? Who's Mewtwo?"

Ash gasped at the name, "I think I know."

_____________________________________________________________________________

            So, this Mewtwo was the one that got rid of team rocket last time. Serena understood. But the pokemon also told her that one of the team rocket main associates might be entering the tournament and this would be a perfect time for her to battle against them to see if she could get any info on Rini's whereabouts. Mewtwo seemed very nice now that he's helping a human...but why?

            And for this time only, she'll have her full arsenal of pokemon thanks to this "Mewtwo" but what's his purpose for helping Serena anyway?

______________________________________________________________________________

            "There you go Serena!" Nurse Joy handed back the tray of pokeballs with Small one sitting on top of them, "All your pokemon are registered for the tournament!"

            "Thanks a lot Nurse Joy!" Serena took the pokemon and Pichu hopped onto her shoulder.

"This is it Pichu..." she told her pokemon as she walked to the lounge area to find her friends. "We haven't battled yet but I'm sure from what Professor Oak told me how Tracey trained you, you'll do just fine! I mean, my magic is going to help you any way!"

            "Pichu Pichu! (I'm excited!)"

"Me too! Too excited actually," when she turned around the corner she gasped and hid behind the wall. "What's he doing here??"

______________________________________________________________________________

BAH HA! I left you all with a cliffhanger. Who's this guy that made Serena so nervous inside. Could it be Gary? Could it be Lance? Or could it be someone else???

            Just as much as for the tournament, I'm accepting 5 OC's tomorrow night. Yes, I know that's quick but as soon as I get on, I accept because I need people in the tournament who know magic soooooo:
