It was a fairly nice yacht that pulled up to the gigantic yacht/cruise ship even though it was harbouring a graphed helicopter machine gun on the back. A woman with a spiffy black dress walked out onto the on ship's dock. The guys on the lounge could hear the distinguishing sound of high heels clacking on the wooden staircase up to boss' deck. There he was lying down on a beach chair in front of his pool filled with some of his close friends and their girlfriends or wives. Boss looked like any other 30 year old who inherited his fathers multi-million, evil (and slightly illegal) operation.

"Leanna you really should sit down one day with me. You know I find you very attractive", said boss looking into her beautiful black eyes and brown hair.

"The day we don't have business to take care off I assure you I'll be all yours", she said as her hand touched his chest all the way down to his hip as she continued to walk past him to sit on a more upright chair. Boss' look seemed to deteriorate into a serious look in anticipation of the beautiful woman's concerns.

"It has come to my attention that many of our men are not very fond of Team Rocket", Leanna explained, "and sadly I have lost loyal control over them. Even though I gave them strict orders not to, I still believe they will vandalize and act more like a gang then an organization towards everyone else. Especially Giovanni's men. You can see where I am taking this."

"Let them continue whatever they do in hopes that a war between Giovanni and I begins. Team Rocket shall then understand the meaning of our name", he said as he crushed his crystal glass filled with a martini. He began to bleed in his left hand because of the sharp glass that hung from his hand when he opened it. Leanna got up to help him as he himself sat up.

"Here let me help you—". She froze as she felt his right touch her arm then she reached over to grab the water on the table. His face was only inches away from hers as she tried to reach over him. He leaned in to kiss her.

"What of the young girl that you ordered to be kidnapped", she said turning his advance into a head scratching retreat.

"She's down below in …

…my room" was the barely audible sound that escaped the headphones on the V-stealth suited James on top of the navigation room. The fact that he placed the bug on Leanna during the conversation after she made her complaint could reveal enough dramatic irony to kill someone. James switched off the headphones that were covered in V-stealth charged fabric.

Today James was fitted with all the cool toys. Pulling out a special alloy cable thinner than a fishing line and securing it to the roof and himself, James jumped of the roof over the pool to slide down a few metres towards the ocean on the hull of the ship. His one personal line brake slowed him down just before he reached the deck of suites. Once there, he lowered himself 2 more metres, turned on his magnetic boots and ran to the balcony of that deck horizontally. After detaching the line, turning of his boots and landing on the deck, he ran through the hallway using thermal goggles disguised as green tint sun specs to locate Misty.

Misty sat there with her hands tied behind her back still wearing her pyjamas, pissed off. She hadn't made the kidnapping plan of the Dark Defiers easy and she wasn't planning on making it easy either, but when the door became thousands of little shards of debris accompanied by a loud burst followed by a barely visible background-blending ghost, Misty had to scream. James pulled out a clean white sock, rolled it up and threw it into her wide-open mouth as fast as he could. Misty froze. James spray-painted a gi-normous message to any one who happened to land upon this room. Picking up Misty and throwing her over his shoulder James looked at his watch, which counted down and reached 10 seconds. He knew that his cover would be blown when he would discharge by grabbing onto the helicopter anyways. He wasn't planning on relying on the cloak technology. Misty was still squirming quietly on his shoulder wondering why she could see herself less and a little more of the ghost. James had wished he brought a smelly sock in hopes that the noxious fumes rising from them would render her unconscious as well.

Even the men on this deck could see the helicopter with the cloak (that disappeared when James jumped onto a leg) that passed a foot or 2 above their heads. They still wouldn't be able to pull out their Mack 10's out in time anyway.

"Who the hell was that?" asked the boss of this operation. A lackey who was near the boss (boss a.k.a. Mike) pointed out a stupid observation on arrival.

"I know he has the girl idiot! I want to know who he is, NOW!!!" Leanna had already grabbed the binoculars from the coasting fool and was zooming in on "James"

"Who the hell is James?" asked Mike nearly forcing an answer out of her. She took off the goggles and looked at Mike angrily.

"James Kojiro Morgan, B class member of Team Rocket. Very skilled at infiltration and very intelligent. He has been known to get himself out of nearly any jam using stealth like evasion techniques. His main strong point in this field is disguise; we just don't know what he changes into often". Mike looked back at the helicopter

"You know what I want", he said not averting his gaze from the helicopter. Leanna pulled out a car key like . . . key and pressed a button on it.

"I'll fire up the speedboat", she said as a boat ramp was heard lowering from the back of the ship.

James was already inside talking to his team-mates about this last mission in particular. Misty couldn't hear what he was saying, nor did she care. She just wanted all this fighting and pain to end. Her mind was still screaming and it wouldn't stop. She sat there on the floor since the black hawk's seats had been modified into electro field equipment. Her legs were pulled in to her chest and her sky blue soft cotton pants and her matching undershirt-like-shirt (you know what I mean) from her pyjamas sustained no damage or dirt. The dark theme and atmosphere of the war bird seemed to disappear and the place seemed almost brighter thanks to her. Kytty and the rest of the crew (James and Umiko) knew that there little stow away wasn't happy. They could almost see it in her eyes. The closer Kytty walked towards Misty, the quieter it became. The world seemed to open up and lull her into a daze as she walked closer. It wasn't long before she felt a slight aura emanating from the back corner of their helicopter. Kytty's subsequent steps towards misty seemed to sink deeper and deeper into water: the first step she swore she heard of rubber, water and metal squeaking together in a symphony of waves. The next step was more like a puddle. She even checked out her feet just to make sure that she wasn't wet. She wasn't. The next step she felt a sea breeze hit her face and she swore her hair had ruffled in it.

On the speedboat in the distance heading towards the helicopter from the yacht, Mike and Leanna were still exchanging looks when a little glass orb filled with black clouds inside a glass briefcase seemed to glow a shadow. It began to suck in the very light around. It was too hard for the 2 extra men on board to comprehend: it was like night in that very spot near the briefcase. Like someone had taken a flashlight to every object and form near the orb and shone the objects in the direction of the orb but with the natural reflected sunlight surrounding them.

"AHHHHAAHHAAHA!!!! I can't see!!!!  I CAN'T SEE!!!!!! HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!" cried the man closest to the orb at the left of the boat.

"Stop crying like a baby! The effects of the orb will wear off in a few minutes. I told you not to stare at the orb for too long" answered Leanna in the passenger's seat obviously angry with the thick-headed men, in the back seats. The sound of unnatural wind was heard coming from the glass orb. Mike who was driving and Leanna both turned back to stare at the briefcase. Averting their eyes quickly they began to talk to each other.

"But he is not here", asked Leanna looking at Mike in frustration, "How could it possibly feel another elemental force"

"The Orb is never wrong. He is probably on board with his little girlfriend", he said as he stopped the boat. Mike pulled out a q-tip sized test tube filled with a sample of Misty's blood.

"Have you seen this yet?" he asked the entire crew. The two men shook their heads.

"What?" asked Leanna. Mike got up and walked to the back of the boat. He shook the test tube lightly and held it up to the sun as he spoke:

"You all know how shark and gyrados infested these waters are correct, something like 3 gyrados and 3 shark per 50 square metres. Any blood in these waters would be traced and followed up by at the least one of these in the most 10 seconds. Watch", said mike as he broke the test tube and let its contents and the test tube fall into the water. 30 seconds passed and not a single shark was even seen approaching at all a gyrados that was in the area seemed to swim away but that was it.

"I think she has some powers of her own", he said as he got back into his driver's seat and drove nearly twice the speed behind the helicopter.

Misty's mind continued to scream as Kytty approached she hadn't even seemed to notice her advance, which was very untrue. Kytty crouched down in front of her and looked at her. Misty's eyes had turned the colour of pure water in a lake. A sky blue. The weird part was that she had no pupils, just mono-coloured irises. Kytty uttered an, 'oh my god' after seeing them.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

            Kytty was about to look at and call over James when Misty placed her hands on Kytty's face. Kytty was scared now. Scared shitless.

"Ka . . . su.  . . mi" where the first syllables to escape her mouth in her other native language, Japanese. The sea-breeze grew ever stronger, more moist, more . . . misty. Kytty heard a scream get louder within her mind. It was Misty. She was letting Kytty feel her pain and she felt it. Kytty was scared herself and began to scream. Outwardly and audibly though catching James' attention. Misty's eyes began to glow the colour of her pyjamas as she held Kytty in her field of water. When she let go the force of the sea breeze began to exercise its self on Kytty. Kytty was thrown back into James. She was barely moving. She felt like she had "belly flopped" from a mile up. Her face was slightly paler than usual and the blond bang that had covered her eye was blown away into the rest of her now static hair. Although James was dry he could see water falling onto his body but it didn't seem to wet him at all. He helped Kytty up and she stumbled over under the pain of her legs. She began to cough and James pulled out his handkerchief. As he placed in front of Kytty's mouth blood sprayed/splattered on to it. He looked back at Misty who seemed to be glowing a very faint blue in her little corner surrounded by water vapour. It wasn't normal. 'Something isn't right' he thought.

"If she is another one then I know how we can prove it", said Leanna as she got up and held up the brief case.

"Ka. . . su. . . mi. . . no  Nare [Mist and Star]", chanted Leanna over and over. The Orb began to give of a light and the air around the boat became damp. The cooler on the floor was condensing so much water vapour that the back seats became full of water. There were only 2 problems; they could see the dampness in the air (clouds) that did not wet them along with the water on the floor and it was just . . .  there suddenly.

Misty's cloud suddenly blew away from her when the boat came near the helicopter. She came out of her trance and felt astral forces pulling and pushing her lightly. The electronics on board suddenly went hay wire. Umiko called out her Maydays to the base but only heard faint responses. The last thing the base heard from the Black hawk was their position. It was in the sea between the Pokemon Isles and Japan.

"The spell seems to have no more effect. I don't understand", explained Leanna to Mike who just stood there. She had put down the brief case as he looked at a book with the picture of an unknown on the front and back. The book was written in symbols that he could barely understand himself.

"It's because she's out of her trance", Mike explained, "Don't worry; we can still handle 3 rocket members and a girl".

'"Umi . . . never mind this. Let's jump already!", Then he grabbed Kytty and Misty and jumped with Umiko right behind him. That's all he could remember when he woke up on the water. Misty was battling the men on the back of the boat saying she wouldn't let them take her back or any of the people with her now.

"Go Weezing!" he yelled as his giant airborne virus appeared to help Seaqueen since she believed that female pokemon should have there own separate names. She had already defeated one pokemon but now it was 2 on one and she could see the guns on each of their belts. She knew she had to think something up fast.

"Tell your Weezing to use a gas screen as large as possible on the boat, then tell him to leave a trail of sludge on the other side of the boat leading off into the ocean" said Misty  as if she were commanding her own set of storm troops. James didn't argue with her he just did what she said. The henchmen on the boat were coughing and had already drawn their guns.

"Alright Seaqueen! You're up. Use your horn attack under the back of that boat", Seaqueen acknowledged Misty's command and dove under the water. She then pierced the engine and propeller rods and swam back to her master and long time friend.

'Good job Seaqueen', congratulated Misty as she spread her legs slightly and put her hand down with the palm facing the seafloor. The Seaking understood this command and swam under her trainer ready to speed off in the distance. When the two men saw the trail of sludge in the water, they aimed there guns off in the distance and had prepared to fire. Mike seeing this display of stupidity quickly glanced at Leanna who was coughing. He ran, lifted her up over the windshield of the boat and landed on the hood. They slid as a cloud of fire grew behind them and narrowly escaped thanks to some quick thinking on Mike's part. Leanna was still coughing in the water with him. As he looked around himself he saw the group of people harbouring around a quick moving Seaking. Seeing an opportunity to slow them down mike pulled out his own SOCOM and aimed at the large moonstone mutated fish descendant. Umiko who was being dragged backwards as she held onto Seaqueen looked saw a gleam and reflection of what was 'Probably . . . A GUN!!". Umiko grabbed a pokeball out of Kytty's pocket, the only one in there.

"Espeon come out", yelled Umiko as a Red field turned into a little pink bobcat from the eevee family. Umiko began to plead her case.

"Listen Espeon we need you to deflect a bullet that is coming straight for us please use your psychic field or something please Espeon".

'What the hell is she talking about? What's a bullet and why is it coming here?' thought Espeon as it tilted its head in miscomprehension. It was then when the little pokemon felt the high speed compressed air current for telling a high speed object coming for them. The Espeon jumped over misty and put up a psychic wind barrier to deflect the sharp hot object coming at high a speed and it did, creating a little pink blast when the bullet hit. It had atomized on impact and left metal deposits on the water.

"We need to dive or we'll die out here!" exclaimed Umiko as she looked at Misty atop her pokemon who was still pulling them all forward.

"We can't go underwater because Kytty is still unconscious", James pointed out. Each of them knew they couldn't depend on Espeon forever. Finally their prayers were answered when Jessie, Buson and Meowth arrived piloting the new and improved mini sub with a twin turbo engine and Deuterium Oxide generator all disguised as a giant magikarp. Misty recalled her pokemon as she felt a bullet whizzed by her head. They could hear another speed/leisure boat wake up to the Mike and Leanna in the water over 400 metres away. Misty was the last person to board the boat with Buson's help. Misty was pissed. All she could remember was her passing out from exhaustion on a plane and then waking up underwater. She helped drag some of her rescuers to the surface and then began fighting the Dark Defiers.

The sub dove far underwater before really heading for shore. Jessie had already begun placing a bandage on Kytty's forehead. Misty sat on soft chairs and felt lonely and sad. Everyone else was bustling around her minding there own business. Nobody to talk to. She felt at home.

Ash was at the harbour that afternoon. Misty still hadn't arrived yet. His Pokemon League hooded sweatshirt (the one in Ash's new the movie Pokemon Advanced Generation and the one worn through the 2003 season in Japan. For more info go to www.pokemon2003.co.jp) ruffled slightly in the wind standing there with his hands in his front pouch. Pikachu climbed out of his bag that was resting on the ground. Pika said something to Ash but he didn't listen. He was worrying too much about Misty. Pikachu began charge up an electric attack. After jumping out and landing on the ground the wild mouse began to send Ash a series of tiny shocks to get his attention. The second one ten times as powerful as the first, it got his attention.

He stood there smoking but not charcoaled. He wasn't very please at all with Pikachu's latest outburst.

"What Pikachu?!?! What could you possibly want that could be so important now?" yelled Ash in a had-it-up-to-here tone. Misty was way more than just obviously on his mind.

"Pika Pi Kachu Pika piKAchu pii Pika pik Pikapika piKA Cha! [You worry for Misty but you never remember my food]", he said in angry tone right back at Ash. Ash rolled his eyes bent down and opened up the chow container and placed Pikachu's 2nd meal on the ground in a little dish. Ash had stood up and went back into his old position looking off in the distance. Completely letting his guard down.

Hull Mosquito walked up behind the lonely trainer.

"The little Pokemon Master caught of guard!? What's going on here?" she said as she put him in a playful headlock. Ash slipped out of it quickly to turn around and see a maturely . . . matured Hull. She still wore the cool neo clothes but she had grown and her body had . . . matured.

"Hull you look good—" he said as another pair of arms put him in a bear hug. Hull began to laugh as Richie lifted Ash up. He slipped out and turned around to see his long-time-no-see friend. He obviously wasn't planning on doing any training since all he wore was a white t-shirt and beige-brown cargo shorts. Ash could see the Dark sunglasses hanging out of his left pocket. Richie folded his arms in preparation to steal words out of Ash's mouth.

"Long time no see", he said as he put an arm around Hull who walked over to him. Ash couldn't stop staring at Hull. He thought she was really beautiful.

"Ash, don't make me come over there and kick your ass again", said Richie joking with Ash.

"-Stop trying to act like a tough guy Rich, your not good at it-", whispered Hull to Richie as her lips moved closer to his. Ash smiled and looked of in the distance again. Richie and Hull looked at each other then back at him in wonder. Richie was going to attempt to bring them back into the conversation.

"Hey Ash where's Misty he said looking a little concerned. Ash just pointed out into the ocean towards Japan. Richie knew something wasn't right when he looked at Ash he wanted to help him but he didn't know how.

Suddenly, a sub rose out of the water and coasted towards Ash and his mini-crew along the dock Ash was standing on. Meowth opened up the top hatch and jumped out on to dry land on all fours. Running towards the group he stopped at Pikachu then looked back at the boat, Umiko was perched at the top of the hatch and was looking around with a pair of goggles when she quickly spun her head down to pick up Misty who was being lifted up by James upon arrival at the top. Ash ran forward and Misty Jumped off the sub and ran over towards him. They only held each other not opening their eyes. A tear escaped Misty's eyes and though her facial expression never changed. Ash wiped her tears away with his hand and spoke to her quietly half cast in English and Japanese. He was basically telling her to be strong and that there would be no more. Ash didn't mind that Misty was slightly damp. They both walked over to the other's that were waiting there.

"Misty I'm sure you remember Richie and Haruka", he said as he tried to understand how misty felt at the very moment while still trying to be polite at the same time. No one could really explain the expression on Ash's face that would also explain his purpose. The truth? There was nothing really wrong with Misty now she felt fine, kind of cold but fine. Ash took of the larger version of the Pokemon light travellers sweater vest (Pokemon season 5/6 shirt) and offered it to Misty. She put on the sweater and looked at the couple in front of her. Her expression changed to a slightly embarrassed look.

"-Oh sorry-, Hey Richie, hello Hull", greeted Misty as she tried to hide her confusion and mistrust of Ash's so called female friend. What really happened those many years before didn't concern Misty, therefore this ruled out jealousy. It was something else that troubled her. The way Haruka looked at Misty sent a cool sense or feeling down her spine. Misty was usually able to pull out the most deeply held secrets and truths out of almost any person she met (usually male), but this female, this Pokemon trainer, this . . .  once tomboy was too hard pry open. And finally she figured it out. Hull more appropriately known as Haruka was just like her. Richie was talking to Ash about their current Pokemon and Journeys in life so far. Richie touched on his relationship with Haruka on a humorous note and as if on cue, like she was listening to the boys' conversation all along, Haruka broke the staring match between herself and Misty and smiled almost to acknowledge the romantic but funny joke. Misty torn from her daze refrained from looking clueless to Ash and the rest of them so she kept a slightly straight face. Misty was determined to find out more about that time from Haruka about herself back then (who she referred to as Hull ever since Ash told her about her many years back) and her relationship with Ash and plan for the future. 'I am jealous', thought Misty to herself as she thought about her last wishes.

"Come on let's go back to the station. It's getting cold out here", suggested Ash as he remembered that the end of summer was near and fall would be rolling around soon. Ash had just remembered about Team Rocket and recalled reminding himself to thank them (without Misty hearing). He turned around and all he saw was Meowth speaking in his own language to Pikachu so that the humans couldn't understand. He told Pikachu the entire plan of the Dark Defiers and swore him to secrecy. When Ash walked over though, Meowth immediately used shadowcat to arrive in the hatch of the sub as it began to sink. The group had stopped walking after they noticed Ash return to the dock. Misty looked back but didn't see anything. Ash felt Pikachu climb up to his shoulder and rest his tail on the opposite (tail on right). Ash walked back to the group and held Misty's cool hand.

James still dripping water, Umiko still dripping water, Kytty still dripping water, Jessie and Bashou stood there watching each other. The screen giving its ever incessant complaint and new order, Giovanni continued to give the specs of the mission. Jessie had already tuned him out and brought herself to another level of awareness she looked around and saw some members looking at the screen but James was looking at her. He had also agreed with her reason to tune out Giovanni. Bashou began to talk back to Giovanni about something. Bashou's admirer was in the corner of his eye watching the screen intently. Kytty shifted her eyes to look at him and he refocused on the conversation at hand. Giovanni at the end of Bashou's question looked down and revealed the picture of Vicious Bashou in the background on a brown wooden frame. It had been over 17 years ago when Team Rocket had challenged fought the Illuminati who had challenged them. Team rocket had won without the use of pokemon as well. They were walking right into another major battle and the Dark Defiers were no joke.

Back on the little cruise ship, the spider a.k.a. dragonfly helicopter (no it's a real type, not a spider) landed on the helipad at the back of the ship. Leanna jumped off with wet hair and Mike followed her. As they walked around the pool they said nothing to no one and pushed high ranks who tried to ask them questions out of their way. It wasn't long before they had a following of members trailing them to the bridge of the ship.

"Change heading to the Viridian city port", commanded Leanna to the navigator. Their first plan was to head to Sun City a.k.a. Sunny town and do some recruiting so that their elite team of Defiers would double the elite ranks of the Rockets.

"Bring this ship up to full speed and contact the Brown and Black classes in Viridian forest! Tell them to prepare to attack on Team Rocket Head Quarters from the north!" commanded an angry Mike to the entire bridge, "and all silver class men – into my briefing room now". Mike looked out at the sea as Leanna was the last person to walk into the briefing room. Mike walked into the room after her.

"War. That's right, we're at war. We could easily beat this so called 'Team' with our bare hands. But instead, I have decided to humiliate them to the point of suicide. On arrival at their base, the black ranks will attack from the north and the brown class will attack from the south. This will give the silver team enough time infiltrate the base and take it over. Draw up the details of the plan. I'll check it over later", last sentence said leaving the room. In the corner of his eye he could see Leanna approaching him.

"Send a ninja in to sp–" he said interrupted.

"I'm 2 steps ahead of you", she said as she walked into the briefing room to sort of check up on the planners.

It was getting late, the sun was preparing for its crash landing on the horizon. Richie stood by Ash as he spoke with a Team Rocket class D or maybe C member. He had arrived on a white motorcycle that was still running in the background. Ash nodded his head in response. His lips making the tell tale signs of speech as he appeared to agree with the Rocket member. Brock watched from a window in his room listening to contemporary jazz ("Mambo Hot" to be exact). The music seemed to complement each and every event from the rocket member hopping on his obviously stolen and painted Yamaha and speeding off to him getting up and turning off the switch of the in Ash's little walkman CD player hooked up to 2 speakers.

This new way of life had stayed around too long. Brock didn't like it. He remembered a time before he met Ash and Misty that everything was so monotonous that to play a song over in his head and still interact with people based on the days and years of practice before would be impossible. That was just what happened when Brock turned off the set up. The music carried on with him in his head and he didn't miss a beat. It sounded just like it always did; real. After walking down the stairs he met Ash and Richie in the kitchen. It wasn't hard to anticipate what they were going to say. He just responded to them and carried on. 'They seemed satisfied', he thought to himself, 'Doing things in the kitchen like helping Ash's mother with the dishes and cleaning it up were easy enough tasks by themselves'. After he finished he went out into the backyard to pack up his tent because he gave up the extra room to Richie and Haruka even though the both said they didn't mind going outside.

Mrs. Ketchum was sitting with her long time friend Jenny Junsa of Pallet (Jen to Delia though). They were drinking tea at the little table were chatting about the new Pokemon/ Fitness Gym in West Pallet City. The truth was that they were actually talking about a long time constable of Pallet (looks kind of like the policemen that are often seen). Jen wasn't wearing her uniform because she was off duty. Her pokemon sweat pants were more comfortable. Delia sat there as well in a white T-shirt and surgeon's green cotton surgeon pants.

"But seriously, what about him? I heard he's got a few twin cousins of his own" said Delia to Jen who was sipping some tea. She stopped when Delia finished talking though.

"I know Jen thanks. He was at the top of my list before, but I'm not sure I want little twin nephews or nieces to my own son or daughter".

"I don't think your parents cared if they were gonna have a child that looked just like their brother's or sister's kids" said Delia who finally seemed to be making a point. Jen looked at her little tea cup and saw that her tea was just over halfway done. She hadn't added sugar or anything else to it yet. But to her the cup was more. It depicted her life. She hadn't done anything major to it or gave it a lasting impression and her life was just 11years towards halfway. She wanted to change the subject to anything, and then something more important hit her mind.

"I don't know about trusting Team Rocket that much yet. I mean yes there plans for the world have seemed to dwindle and ever since your son changed the course of the future with the arrival of Bish they now see that their organization will be no more in the future". Delia looked straight at Jen and searched for an answer that would appease her own wonder.

"Yes but I think they're trying to make their final years of existence memorable which is what you should be doing Jennifer." Delia got up, "So . . . are you coming with us or not?" Officer Jenny got up and walked over to the porch door window.

"Sure I'll come. I'm not gonna let you walk perfectly into a trap", said Jenny who turned around to show a smile. Officer Jenny thought to herself about what the real reason she came here. She was hoping the Delia would've suggested someone else for her current relationship. Instead she was silently being coasted into a new life with a great guy. 'I guess that's what friends are for', she thought.

"He's my boyfriend!". Delia's smile began to grow and she screeched a high womanly yell only females can make (You know the really happy one).

Misty sat on the roof of the Ketchum residence as she looked out opposite to the finally setting sun. She obviously wasn't very happy. Misty in her younger studies had wrote that 'The sky can represent all the elements of life and the way they interact with each other, a sunset for example' in one of her essays. The fire that fills the sky is and always will be drowned out by the water. When the darkness comes though, it's never truly seen without the light [light and shadow]. Someone was walking towards Misty on the roof but she didn't care who it was or if she knew— . . . it was Hull. Haruka sat down to look at the sunset beside Misty. She loved sunsets as well. She read poems and essays just like Misty did.

"The sky can represent all the elements of life and the way they interact with each other, a sunset for example", Haruka said as she closed her eyes and looked at the sunset and felt the dying warmth an the coolness that she thought came from the approaching night. Misty was astonished.

"You read my essay?", she said as she didn't change her position or her expression. Haruka turned to look at her.

"Misty, you're essay was beautiful", she said not opening her eyes as she turned back to face the sunset, "I don't know why you seek darkness though Kasumi. No matter where you look, light will find away. You said that in your essay as well". Misty looked up and out into the southern pacific ocean. The unpopulated row-of-houses in front of her were highlighted as the street lights began to warm up. But out on the ocean a cruise ship began to light up it's deck lights, the stars began shinning and the moon glowed down to barely produce a reflection in the water. Misty began to smile to herself as she turned to look at Haruka who had opened her eyes after feeling the sun die out.

"What happened all those years back when you and Ash were on your 'adventures'?". Haruka frowned and told her the truth.

"Nothing happened. I admired him though. He was like the bigger brother I never had. Then he was more. He became my crush. I never told him that. Not even Richie knows. I hope you love him more than I do". Misty was about to respond when a helicopter began to approach from the north. As they both looked at the helicopter, Misty was filled with a new enlightenment that pushed her to speak to Hull.

"Thank you Haruka. I do love him. It's very seldom that people around me ever tell me that. Often times it's the opposite. But he always hears and proves them wrong. Thank you for seeing the inner, better side of him". That was the first time Misty spoke to Haruka by her first name.

"They're almost here, we should get ready to leave Misty", said Haruka as she got up and jumped of the roof onto the grass in the backyard. Misty waited on the roof for the helicopter that seemed to be still a long ways away. Haruka turned around to walk around the front of the house when she heard the unnatural ruffling of bushes behind the backyard of the Ketchum residence.

'A large pokemon,

            thief,

                        wind,

                                    what?!?!'.

Her obviously quick intelligence was frustrating her as she couldn't understand 'who' it was. Ahh she was making progress. She turned to run into the extended bush beside her. The ninja in the bush had lost complete confirmation of Haruka. He scolded himself as he remembered he was supposed to keep a watchful eye on both of them.

"She probably went into the house before his eye could check", he said quietly. He was reaching into his back pocket to grab his binoculars when Haruka began to speak.

"Do you always talk to yourself?" asked Haruka who was sitting on a branch just back and above his head. As he turned around Haruka swung her leg to knock his head back. The next series of events happened in a span of about 2.5 seconds (so get a watch and try the moves yourself [don't hit anybody though]). Haruka . . . Dropped down of the tree, swipe kicked him, finished off facing him and gave him a double hand karate hit (basically she just pushed him hard) while he was still in the air. The ninja was thrown into the tree he was hiding behind and fell to the ground. It was then when in a split second the ninja pulled out a chlorosome soaked needle thick and sized wooden splinter. It just took a flick of his wrist to throw the splinter into her neck. It went deep. Muttering something quietly Haruka passed out in seconds as the jugular junction nerves began to slowdown to the chloride/ fluoride solution.

The ninja sat up to pull out a radio with an adjustable antenna. He pulled it to the max (heh heh heh). He gave the base an entire report and waited to receive his orders. Feeling his side he felt 2 large bruises and on the other side another large bruise. This guy was pissed now.

"Capture the red head and await the retrieval team", spoke a tertiary class member. Instead of coming up behind Misty and grabbing her, the ninja ran up towards the house, threw a rope-and-ball restraint, ran to the front of the house and caught the falling Misty. He could hear people coming towards the front door as he decided to jump back onto the house. He had already given Misty a bandana to chew on and restrain speech. Ash, Brock and Richie walked outside to look at the approaching helicopter. They all simultaneously heard the footsteps of someone running to the back yard on the roof. They all began to sprint around the house as their vacuums ruffled a few leaves into the air. Richie, who was in the lead, was the first person to see the still body of Haruka on the grass. He breathed in deeply as he skid to a stop near her body into the he forest. It wasn't long before Brock and ash arrived right beside him. Haruka began to open her eyes slightly and smile at Richie.

"Is she O.K.?" asked Ash who stood watching.

"She's coming too", replied Richie who didn't look at Ash to respond.

"Ash hurry go after Misty we'll be O.K. here", replied Brock with a point that Ash finally picked up. Misty wasn't having the best of times on the ninja either but when the ninja jumped the 5 fence towards the shores, Misty smiled as saw somebody jump over a fence almost 3 fences away and she knew it was Ash. They were all in densely, populated forest.

Ash wasn't far behind either. The sprinting through the trees to catch up to the ninja was only possible do to the aid from his arms that pulled him while his legs pushed of course. The ninja had made it to the shore as a helicopter landed on the water. He swam the short distance back to the helicopter that had its blades still going. As the ninja climbed into the helicopter, Ash was already halfway between the boat and shore and there were only a few metres left. It was then when the water seemed to go completely quiet. It wasn't even affected by the helicopters spinning blades. Ash felt water compress in-front of his body and when it released, Ash was pushed back on the water back onto the shore as well. The helicopter began to take off once again. Ash looked at the leaving helicopter then back at the one that was still 500 meters away from their home. Ash ran back to spread the bad news to everyone at his house. Misty was kidnapped . . . again.

Professor Oak was sitting down at a net meeting with his desktop in his living room. He knew every single face that showed up on the screen from Professor Ivy to Professor Oda. He noticed that there faces were all a little small.

"Sorry to interrupt everybody but I'll be switching to another screen so I'll be out for a minute", said Samuel to his colleagues. As stuck up as they were none of them said anything back, they just nodded and returned to the conversation about their long-time missing colleague Dr. Shiranui-Hakase. After a short leave, Professor Oak was now looking directly at the digital video sensor on the T.V. screen. It had been a long time since they all had heard of Dr. Shiranui. He was a promising scientist who just knew he was better than everybody else.

"…But why hasn't anyone decided to take over his work, I mean it's not like he was evil or anything", stated Prof. Ivy. No one answered after her. The pause was too long and unnatural to hold on so long. A doorbell rang. Samuel went to check his door. One man dressed completely in black and another in a brown suit waited at the door for Prof. Oak to expose himself with the simple handshake to O-sleep powder (oddish grade) in the face trick. Prof. Oak timed out from the meeting and was automatically disconnected. No one cared to even wonder what happened.

Ash secured his bak-pak tightly and comfortably as he put on his night grass green gloves. Brock was walking up to the helicopter landed in the middle of the low population residential street. Haruka was walking out the door with Mrs. Ketchum and Ms. Junsa close behind. Richie emerged from the house with a damp and nearly frozen neo pokemon bandana.  Haruka's bandana actually. As he wrapped it around her neck and the bruised part she winced as the shockingly cold cloth touched her delicate skin. She picked up her lapel from the floor and put it on to cross over her body and across her chest. Richie gave her a quick kiss and began to walk out towards Ash, who watched the entire thing happen. It reminded him of his relationship with Misty. He was determined to get her back. The incessant hum of the blades began to slow to secure a grounded speed. The right door opened up and Bashou and Kytty jumped out to look at each other then at the new boarding passengers. Brock was first on, then Ash and the rest. Pikachu poked his little head out of the bag to look around. After noticing Meowth, he jumped out and greeted his pal. Meowth responded in his pokemon (cat) language. Pikachu was sure now that these people could be trusted. Bashou jumped on right after and helped Kytty in being a gentleman. Umiko who was also on the copter rolled her eyes at her sister who she couldn't believe hadn't made a move yet. Ash took a seat near James who greeted him on arrival. Cassidy looked back and put the copter into vertical mode and rose up. She then switched to long distance flight mode and headed for the Viridian city gym (a.k.a. TRHQ).

"I'm sorry about what happened to Misty. She must mean a lot to you", said James to Ash in hopes of cheering him up. Ash made no response. 'Maybe I should try different sales pitch', he thought to himself.

"If you want to get her back, you might want to train with me because anyone who doesn't know what they're doing, isn't coming along!" stated James who looked straight ahead. Ash looked at him. He actually thought it might be a good idea and he'd prove to James that he could save his girlfriend.

It was quiet. Very quiet. And still. She was sad and angry at the same time there thinking about Ash and her family. She missed them all so much now and she wanted to be with them. Above in another compartment a Brown class Dark Defier, watched the girl in a pure blue diving suit while keeping another eye on her vitals. Mike walked in and the man turned around.

"Prepare her and set the amplifiers. We're almost there", said Mike as he turned around and headed for the balcony. On the way, Leanna joined him in the hallway and chatted with him about the plan. The entire back of this ship was filled with Dark Defiers members wearing silver jump suits, brown or black suits or ninja uniforms. They all shut up after Mike arrived. They all knew what was next.

"We are at war. The next phase of our plan is going smoothly. We only need to defeat Team Rocket to achieve our ultimate goal", said Mike as he paced back and forth on the balcony, "They are softening because of the pull from righteousness. With our new weapon as well, nothing can stop us. You will be the ones to bring this organization into a new era, a new stage. This plan must be executed flawlessly and I know I can trust you" he said as he looked at the sky.

"-ETA-", he asked as he looked at Leanna.

"1 and a ½ hours maybe even 2 depending on the weather", replied Leanna as she checked her Palm Tool. The speech was being played at the temporary Defier base north of Viridian City. After it finished the trained ninjas jumped on their motorcycles and the men in brown suits got into their cars, 4 to one and began driving into the city.

The helicopter landed on the roof of the gym. 2 rocket executives walked up to helicopter as the blades died down and the door slid open. James jumped out with Umiko right behind him. Richie who was right after Umiko aroused some suspicion. The red haired female executive Rocket pulled out a head set with an uplink to the Organizations on site wireless server.

"-G- Recognition scan-", whispered the red headed woman with hair that was a cross between Haruka's and Cassidy's. The single eye display displayed the message 'searching' as a red light highlighted Richie in the display. Seconds later it gave back full information.

"Hello Richie Rívale", she said as she walked past him. Richie paused and looked back at her.

"Don't bother asking how she knows. Executives are like that", said Umiko to Richie as she walked past him as well. Ash had just emerged from the shadow of the 'copter and the woman recognized him from T.V.

"Please to have you here at our safe house and thanks for choosing us Mr. Ketchum. We know how hard it is to find good reliable help and sources these days". She held out her hand.

"I didn't choose this place lady, I had no choice", said ash as he walked by her outstretched hand. The purple haired man walked behind Ash and looked back at the other executive Rocket. Smirking, he turned and commanded one of his following class Cs to lead the way opening doors and such. The rest of Ash's friends and relatives followed as well. Bashou was closing the door on the helicopter as Kytty helped Cassidy with the shutdown procedures of this standard 'copter (brake blocs and other stuff). 'What Am I doing this for? I'm a senior officer' she thought to herself as she looked at the lined up Class C members at ease.

"Hey boys, get this helicopter locked down to this moveable platform and put it away!" ordered Kytty to the 4 men that were near the helicopter door. They didn't bother responding at all. They ran towards the helicopter and picked up the block brakes chains and platform screws as well as a tarp that was rolled up. 2 of them began to secure the helicopter and the other 2 went over to the pilots hatch to help Cassidy out and put the helicopter in safe mode. Cassidy took off her gloves and walked up to the executive.

"Did you record the position of the Ketchum residence and get a good structural scan?" asked the tall beautiful woman. Cassidy never noticed it but this executive looked a lot like her.

"Yes of course I did. I transferred it to this server mid-flight.

"-Find: Ketchum res.-" she said into the microphone on the headset.

"- 4 results including '3D graphic of Ketchum residence'-", replied the little pokedex male voice from the head set only audible to her ear.

"Good work Cassidy, you're what we expect from our most distinguished Rockets", said the executive as she walked away.

"-Bitch-", said Cassidy as she looked at the . . . bitch walk away. Kytty walked up to stand a persons distance to the side of Cassidy.

"Amen to that", said Kytty. Bashou walked up and put his hands on their shoulders.

"Yeah she does have a nice but. But don't you worry girls . . . I dig blondes". Both girls looked at him and punched him in the shoulder as one way of letting him know they weren't impressed. Bashou looked at Kytty as she walked away.

"You do know I was just kidding?" he said as he ran up to her.

"Of course I knew you were kidding", She said as she looked at him, "I just don't think you're that funny". Umiko came across Buson inside the elevator. He looked at her and was trying to act as professional as possible when she entered.

"Hello Umiko. Is Bashou back yet?" asked Buson looking at her.

"Yeah he's back", answered Umiko in a fed up annoyed tone, "Trying to pick up my sister again. He hasn't even been back 5 minutes and already he's trying".

Buson began to chuckle a little and folded his muscular arms.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Ash was unpacking his things and looking around at his surprisingly nice and white room that was Team Rocket res. Brock was about to walk in the door. Ash didn't know how he knew that but he was right.

"Hey sup man. How's it going?" asked Brock trying to get a good and believable response from Ash. Ash knew that if he didn't give Brock a believable response, Brock would pry and pry until he fesses up believably. Or he could tell the truth and just get it over with.

"I'm Ok just thinking", he said barely audibly. Brock looked at his best friend and felt a sort of relative sadness in himself as well. He hated to see any friend sad.

"Are you OK man? You don't look so good", inquired Brock. Ash didn't answer him nor did he even acknowledge Brock's presence after Brock spoke.

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine", said Ash as he zipped up his now empty bag. He looked at Pikachu on his bed who was (you guessed it) sleeping. Pikachu had been doing a lot of that lately and he didn't want him to get lazy.

"Pikachu it's time for some training", said Ash to Pikachu that was just getting up. 'This should get Brock of my tail'. As Pikachu got up Ash ran out the door and towards the stairs of the surprisingly bright interior of Team Rocket Res.

"For every second you're late to the gym you'll have just as many laps to do!!" yelled Ash from the hallway on the 7th floor. It wasn't long before Pikachu was desperately zipping out of the room leaving the door open. Brock looked at Pikachu follow Ash down the stairs and laughed a little to himself. Wearing his own neo sweat shirt (go to the Japanese Pokemon TV show website to see their "neo" clothes) Brock walked in to the room to look out the window. Outside in the middle of the forest was a large dish about 9 feet in diameter made of concrete. 'Must be an ancient ritual or something', Brock thought to himself as 2 teens walked out and looked at each other from both sides of the dish. Suddenly they both pulled out little objects that looked like tiny blenders. They held them in a position like someone who was cocking an arrow on a long bow. Brock could see them saying something to each other as they stood there.

. . . 1 LET IT RIP!" Brock face faulted right there. 'Kids these days'

Ash was still a long ways ahead of Pikachu but the little electric mouse was closing in. 'This was gonna be a looooong practice', Ash thought to himself as he looked back at Pikachu who was probably 10 seconds behind him. The second time he looked back though Pikachu was passing by his feet. 'Perfect now I'm gonna have to run'. Upon arrival at the gym, James, Bashou and Buson were sparring with different weapons from knsi knives to the longest staffs. They were also upgrading a bunch of C class members fighting skills as well. The current demonstration was Bashou against a C class volunteer. James was doing the commentary on the fighting skills and moves.

"Now watch as Bashou's evasiveness becomes the key to his success" said James to the seated crowed. The Rocketeer began running towards Bashou with his arms in a bear hug position. Bashou just stood there looking like a statue in a kung-foo pose. As the volunteer tried to grab Bashou, Bashou ducked into a sweep kick, taking the legs out under the rocketeer. Before the C class man could even land Bashou who had swipe kicked him from the right side, got jumped up and finished off with an elbow to the back bringing him to the ground. The spectators who were looking at the battle from the same perspective of Ash were amazed at the high class rocket's speed. Ash needed space to his training and since this was a Pokemon Gym their practice had to be moved. Ash walked in and yelled to James and the others.

"Can I have part of this gym to actually train my Pokemon?!?!" asked Ketchum to no one in particular.

"You'll have to fight us for it kid!" said one of the Team Rocket members trying to instil fear into Ash. The other members went back to watching the demonstration a foot.

"Ok, first to fall loses!" exclaimed Ash as he walked into gym.

It wasn't long before everybody surrounded Ash and the TR member in the center of gym. The Rocket member laughed as one of his colleagues made a joke about Ash. 'This should be easy' he thought (And I stress thought).

"Pikachu pay close attention to this battle OK!!" yelled Ash to his friend on the side lines as well.

"pIKa!" replied Pika. The Rocket member looked at Ash and adjusted his full black gloves. Bashou walked up to the C class member:

"Don't hold back, go all out", he said fairly quietly. Ash put up his hood on his neo clothes, did a keyukuneos and finished off in a judo fighting position and waited for the Rocket Member to charge. The trainee ran towards Ash hands up in a ready to tackle position. Upon arrival Ash rolled diagonally away but sort of towards the man to place himself about 6 feet from the trainee. The trainee stopped turned around and took 2 running steps toward Ash before jumping into a full tackle. Ash jumped over the diving trainee, and landed perfectly on the other side. The trainee rolled to a stop got up and turned around. He was pissed off now. This simple judo match had turned into karate in less than a second. The trainee ran towards Ash again swinging his arm to punch him. Ash turned around and ducked out of the way. As Ash went down the trainee kicked but hit nothing. Ash spurted and rolled backwards. After getting back up Ash dusted himself off and looked at the trainee. Ash was ready as confirmed by his secondary level keyukuneos. James's eyes widened at the site of this. The trainee charged at Ash again this time trying a high right kick which Ash ducked under followed by a mid range round house with the left which Ash jumped over. The fighting increased in speed and force but Ash just kept dodging and escaping the attacks from any direction: trainee punches, Ash ducks, trainee punches again Ash moves to left side, trainee kicks with left, Ash moves back to his old position, trainee tries tornado kick, Ash rolls under to other side, trainee starts to throw out quicker fighting combos, Ash begins to block attacks. The trainee just can't understand how such a little kid could have the power to keep up with him. Ash seemed to be forcing him back now and suddenly they both stopped for a second. They began to rub their soon to be bruises. They continued to spar unaware that Giovanni was watching them. He was watching Ash more intently then before as he continued to pressure one of his own. His speed and agility reminded him of the level X (Any level higher than the evolve levels) Pikachu they were trying to steal from him before. 'He would make a great addition to Team Rocket', Giovanni thought to himself as an evil smile grew on his face. It was almost 8:00 when a light whistling was heard approaching the Gym from the north. Seconds later James, Bashou and Buson were on the ground covering their heads. The other rockets followed suit. Giovanni saw this and hit a button that brought up a pink translucent force field of psychic energy. As the C class volunteer looked around the room Ash used the latter part of a keyukuneus to karate punch him right into the stomach sending him flying about 4 feet to land on his back, in pain. Ash jumped slightly and fell horizontally to the ground to avoid the northern wall of the gym (entrance wall) that just blew up'.

Swarmer missiles began reducing gigantic stone monuments and sculptures to dust. Tear gas grenades flew in blasting vileplume spores and X - aerofundae insectus stunspore everywhere. Before the gas could even get close, Pikachu ran over shook Ash, then James and then yelled out loud to get everybody else up. Ash got up looked back at the orange approaching yellowish orange dust. 'Yellow is . . . come on I know this . . . stunspore so orange must be vileplume stunspore', thought Ash as he got up and ran to Pikachu. They then began running for the back door. Gym 1, the second biggest of the 3 gyms that made the Viridian City gym was about to go. Giovanni had already opened the control panel to see if he could use the ventilation fans to clear the air. Luckily, it worked and 20 or more Dark Defiers with electric wands began walking in, all wearing brown suits. Behind them black shadows seemed to be jumping up to the roof of the gym.

"Our fight isn't here", said Buson to Ash, Pikachu, Bashou and James as he ran to the staircase near Giovanni's position. Ash looked at James and followed Buson to the staircase. Pikachu wasn't far from Ash's heels as he ran up the stairs.

"Help clear off the roof then drop in behind those other men. As long as they don't figure out where our labs and real base are, were OK", said Giovanni to the 5 that ran up the stairs.

"Buson, I'll meet you up their, Go!" advised Bashou to his partner and friend. James, Ash and Pikachu followed Bashou up to the roof through a ladder leading to a hatch. They were all on the roof now looking at 5 or 6 people lined up mowing down people with impact-bullet-only machine guns. Back on the top 'Gym 1' floor though, Bashou was talking with Giovanni.

"You knew they were already hear but you cancelled the alarm", said Bashou to Giovanni although not looking at him. Giovanni typed furiously on a panel that had popped up from the railing out looking the battle field. Another large pink force-field popped up in the middle of the gym separating the 'DD' from 'TR'.

"Let's just say that this organization needed a wake up call. We need more action and excitement in here the kind that –" said Giovanni interrupted.

"Puts people's lives in danger?" said Bashou as he headed for the ladder to the roof.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Domino and Mondo continued to fire as Ash stood watching the war ensue in front of his eyes.

"Pikachu get ready!" yelled Ash to Pikachu as he saw their rounds begin to deplete. . . . PoP, PoP, PoP, clic, clic, clic.

"You're both out of ammo, Get down. Pikachu! Thundershock!!!" commanded Ash to his little yellow pokemon that climbed up his body and jumped off his outstretched hand. The very hairs on most surrounding people began to point towards Pikachu. The ninja's holding their electric wands acted like lightning rods.

"pIIII  kAA . . . CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!" cried out Pika as a bright yellow bolt of lightning erupted heading straight for each lightning rod. As the ninja's were electrocuted, the electric wands overloaded and blew up, blasting them off the roof unconscious. Buson picked up the bazooka beside Mondo and aimed at the roof in front the DD rope access. He fired blowing up part of the roof but also causing the rest of the ninjas to fall or to be blasted back out of commission. Ash picked up 2 of the wands and jumped off the roof.

"Well what are you waiting for", said Ash as Pikachu automatically followed him. James saw this and dropped down as well. The wands Ash were holding weren't on but none the less he could still kick but with Pikachu. Ash ran up behind the men in brown suits and started to knock them down and or out. They turned around to see Ash, Pikachu, Mondo, Domino, Buson, Bashou, James and a few other rockets.

The forcefeild went down and the other Rockets still in their training uniforms like Bashou, Buson and James prepared to fight. They all ran in to the group of Brown men that far out numbered the TR men in the area. Held the wands in a back slash position while the DD he was running at held them in the traditional Cervantes double sword position (Cervantes is a true story). The Brown man's wands were electric but since the conducting parts ran outside of the rubber on the inside ash wouldn't get shocked. The large man brought both wands up and Ash brought his back to wine up for a great slash. The large man released from the top and Ash released from the bottom. They were about to create the biggest clash of the room the victor would be . . .

"I've brought you here professor because you're the only one intelligent enough to improve the power of the focus lens. Now show us how to fix it or else the boy you once knew will be killed", said Mike to Prof. Oak. Samuel Adam Oak looked at a screen which was showing the battle between the Dark Defiers and Team Rocket. Ash was in there fighting as well. Running towards the stairs with a few other Rockets as Giovanni typed something. The X-ray camera shut off and Oak could see no more.

"Mould whatever reaction your making into the focuser to reduce reverse direction interference", he said as he looked down.

"Show me Professor", said Mike.

"I'll need to see you energy source or the main conduit then", said Samuel to Mike. Mike looked at Oak intently then looked at one of his lackey's and nodded. A chamber in the floor opened and another floor below it rose with Leanna holding a book and speaking a language he had never heard before very softly. Once her bare legs were almost in view someone who he had known for a long time rose up.

Not her. Please not this. Not now. He just couldn't believe it. His face was a dead give a way. Misty was lying down on a table partially immersed in water.

"Don't let your emotions come over you Professor 'cause, I don't need Misty or her little boyfriend you know. Hmf hm hm hm . . . I don't even need you", Mike said lightly chuckling to himself. Oak agreed to comply.

"Place her inside something to make a cast with. Use the cast to make another metal cast , then weld and mould the metal cast into the focus lens" He said as he got up and showed him what to do. It was only a matter of seconds before a computer was scanning Misty and making the exact mould to be printed in metal by the 3D moulding machine they had. 5 minutes later a metal cast silhouette of Misty was being welded onto the focuser. The focuser mould was turned vertical like a rocket and molten glass was poured onto the back. It was carefully removed and put into its ready position. Leanna walked under it still chanting. Misty was placed inside her glass cast still in a state of trance.

"Thank you Prof.", Mike said as he walked over to a control panel at the right side of the top of the ship. After pressing a few buttons. The clear ball with a black misty cloud was broken under water in a clear tank near himself. The water seemed to glow inwards as well and in the moonlight the blue seemed to shine outwards then seep off. A large mechanical arm grabbed the clear barrel, raised it up over the focuser and poured the elemental water slowly into an internal glass channel that had been bored out by plasma beams earlier. The intricate network of liquid pipes no more than an half an inch in diameter took all the water and held it well too. Misty began to turn a blue-ish colour herself from her previous pale colour. Leanna's tone of voice began to change as well. She raised her arms and began chanting even louder. Mike began aiming the focuser straight for Ash.

"What have I done", said Prof. as he looked at the big apparatus charge up. Then it fired. A blue beam of energy and water. Flying straight towards the 1st gym . . .

. . . Neither of them since they both held back a little as A the wall of the gym behind the large man burst into water and blue energy. Ash looked in the direction of the blast. And all he said was someone who looked like she was holding the moon. Another woman obviously not as big as the woman, seemed to be lying in front of her on the floor glowing blue. Ash swore it was Misty but her hair was blue. He remembered he was fighting a big guy and returned his attention to the matter at hand. He spun around to slash from the left side but he was blocked. The man tried to swing his left around but Ash blocked it as well. Ash was literally being squashed between 2 gigantic arms holding electric wands. Instead of squirming out though, Ash decided to use the pressure from the Man against him. As the man squeezed, Ash jumped up still blocking though swung his feet up and gave him a 2 footed kick. This sent the man into the air tumbling and falling on his upper chest also bring him out of a 2 axis spin. Ash rolled back after the kick. Ash looked at the 2 wands he held. A man ran up behind him was about to zap Ash across the room when Pika thunder tackled him into a tall standing broken out of place piece of the gym. Another guy came running at Ash from the front. Ash used both wands to block his advancement then he rolled inwards and elbowed the guy in the stomach. He finished him off with a left uppercut that wasn't supper effective but it worked in knocking the man unconscious. Another man came running at him from the back so Ash just swipe kicked him so that he landed on his back. Man came from the side, Ash blocked both wands with his and did a left (flying) tornado kick to knock the guy unconscious. Another man tried to jump at him from the left instead. Ash just grabbed the man and used his momentum in a rolling throw. Ash was now pretty much surrounded by 5 guys. Looking at the wands again he finally figured how to turn on the electric setting. He smiled an evil grin as all he had to do was touch them once and they'd be unconscious. He fenced quickly with a few Brown men narrowly escaping their slashes. This was pretty easy to him.

6 guys had surrounded Bashou and Buson. Bashou ducked out of the way as a wand passed the line of his head. Bashou used a right uppercut and sent the guy flying into the air. The brown suited man let go of his electric wand so Bashou grabbed it out of the air. Another man ran towards Buson and he had 2 wands blazing and all. Bashou saw this and jumped over his partners head. Using 2 hands he blasted a wand right out of the guy's right hand. Grabbing both arms as, Bashou jumped and rolled over the man's left side to hold him in a locked and inescapable position back to back. 2 of the men watching this ran in to help. Bashou just jumped up and kicked them both in the face. After landing, Bashou took a few steps to the left and put the man into a horizontal spin, falling to the ground. Bashou grabbed the wand from him while he was spinning and tossed it to Buson. Buson saw the 3 men coming towards him straight on. Buson swung his huge arm with the wand and it hit the first man with the broad side. The man cried out in pain as Buson left the wand there. The man flew back into the other men and shocked them all in the process.

James was fight rigorously with a ninja that hadn't fallen unconscious at all. The ninja had tripped James and was about to drop kick him when knsi knives pinned the ninja against a partially broken brick wall. Jessie landed near James, back hand sprung towards the ninja then somersaulted into a front flying jump kick, kicking the ninja right through the wall unconscious. She ran back to James's side.

"Are you OK?" she asked panicky. James got up and brought her up as well. Giving her a quick kiss in front of all these people made her blush a little. James being slightly taller than her could see Ash fighting and Pikachu jump on people's faces and electrocute them.

"What are you looking at James?" asked Jessie who only began to look in his eyes direction. She was pretty amazed at the pile around him to. Up to about 20 people were surrounding him.

"He is pretty good isn't he", commented Jessie looking at him jump, roll and dodge and his slashing technique was superb.

"Think he'd make a good addition to our team?" asked James still looking at Ash battle the 2 last guys. Just then though Ash had beaten the last guy (or so he thought) and he bent down to give Pika a low five.

"Good job buddy, we're unstoppable aren't we!" said Ash to Pikachu.

"piKA!!!! [Ash!!!!]", yelled Pikachu to his friend.

"What is it Pikawooa WOAAAAAH", said Ash as he was tackled into the ground. Pikachu shocked them both as it was the only way he thought he could help.

"Nahhhhh" said Jessie and James simultaneously.

Misty lay on the deck, cold. Mike looked at her stunned and not sure what to do. Leanna turned her over and exposed her face that had the same ever stranding blue line of liquid from the focuser that no longer existed. It was like face paint that couldn't be removed. Misty began glowing again. This time the force blew her hair so hard that it was like an upside-down pyramid. Misty's hair had fallen out of the knot and barrette just before she gave up so much energy. Opening her blue-ish green eyes now, Misty looked around and saw Leanna. With her body still giving off the incredible power Mike walked over to examine the 'New and improved Misty'.

"Misty I command you to fly", said Mike while looking directly into her eyes.

"What are you doing don't get her–" said Leanna interrupted while looking at Mike with eyes of anger.

"Who do you think you are?", said Misty as she raised her right arm and positioned her hand into the position one would have on a ball the size of one's fist. Misty charged up a small pressurized ball of water. White water seemed to be swirling around it with 4 rings along double axes. The water ball flew out of her hand and blew up in Mike's abdomen propelling him into the near by mast towards the rear of the ship.

"Mistress I am at your service", said Misty to Leanna obviously in a trance in a trance in a trance in a trance (this narrator is broken. Over used. Waaay over used. New one in? Good. Sorry bout that -_-'). Leanna was partially amazed by the sudden show of loyalty. She was more amused by it though. 'My own unstoppable soldier, this couldn't get any better'.

"What happened to her?!?!" yelled the Professor standing handcuffed and held at the arms by 2 men.

"You of all people should know old man. Her body has fused with the water tainted legendary black mist of Missingno. That's right the mist that would take form of the first element it touches. It's the closest thing to the sacred treasure this sect has been so eager to find. It's the most powerful multi-cellular airborne pathogen as apposed to a Weezing. Now fused with her, it is unstoppable", explained Leanna to the Professor who could only look at Misty with sadness.

"Why does she only obey you?" asked Mike getting up slowly clutching his left arm that was bleeding because of his powerful hard wooden impact.

"The one who freed Missingno those many years ago was a sorcerer. I look like a witch don't I with the partially torn dress and the big book of spells", said Leanna.

"No you look more like a bi-", said Mike who didn't get to finish his profound remark.

"Ah-a-aah! You wouldn't want to piss off a suicide bomber so why would you piss me off" she said as she held up a ticking finger. 'She's taking her new found powers to her head. Just don't over do it Leanna', thought Mike to himself.

"Get me Dr. Shiranui-Hakase, my executives and Tatsumi now!" said Giovanni to a couple of lackeys who were standing near him in Gym 1 of the Viridian city gym. ([For more info on Team Rocket visit "Team Rocket's Rockin'". Please note that most of my info is from original sources, Pokemon rights' owners and official sites. Oh and the depths of my mind thanks to the game, show, TCG, movies and just plain browsing the net]) Another wave of 'Brown' men and assassins seemed to be descending upon the Gym from the residential area to the north again.

"Class A fall back", yelled Giovanni. They took a long and final look at the approaching Dark Defiers before turning around and running for the door to the hallway.

Ash was still there wrestling the Dark Defier who had surprised him with a tackle. He was a brown suited man with yellow stars on his shoulders just like a general or commanders would have. This was a rare but real role reversal as the elite Dark Defiers Pokemon (an electabuzz) was coaxing his master. Pikachu was also cheering on Ash while giving him look out pointers and support. All they need now was an announcer. And some badges up for stakes.

Ash had pushed the 'DD' off and back a few metres. The large man ran at Ash again this time getting to a sprint.

"PIka piKA!! [Pika help!]" said Ash in basic Pi(ka)/Rai-chu Pokemon Language. Pikachu looked at Ash and thought of something quick.

"uUuuu…pi KACHU! [ahhhh…thunder Shock!]" said Pikachu. Ash saw the power cord on the ground. Ash threw the rubber covered broken wire at the man. First reflex was to catch it. Big mistake as confirmed by the large electric discharge, the smoke and the 17 feet of flight. Giovanni was busy watching the approaching enemy when the whitish indigo light flashed from Ash's position. That was when Gio remembered about the defences. Outdoor defences 1 and 2 (2 on building would be out) but 3 and 4 on the inside were only partially destroyed according to the console. After entering a few settings via keypad and keyboard, plasma guns began popping up all over the place. Ash and Pikachu joined the rest of the Rockets who were still wearing their training uniforms.

"Anybody who doesn't have a pokemon on them right now, take 2. If someone falls, take theirs as well", said Giovanni as his other lackey threw a net bag containing pokemon filled pokeballs into the middle of the group of Rocketeers. Everybody except Ash reached in and grabbed 2 pokeballs.

"Get ready Pika", said Ash in his softer less scratchy and lower tone.

"Pikachu", acknowledged his little friend. Black laser mounted guns began automatically focusing in on the Dark Defiers.

Giovanni walked into his upper gym office. Placing his hand on a picture, it was scanned and the wall seemed to split. The low lighted office was almost brighter than the whitish purple light shining down from the ceiling over the 5 seater round table. It was equipped with Laptops (Toshiba), phones (Motorola) and a center 3D display (Acer).

The 2 rocket executives and Tatsumi were already sitting at the table looking at Giovanni. Dr. Shiranui-Hakase walked in after Giovanni and took the last seat placing him in the lowest ranking seat of them all clockwise with the male executive being next to Giovanni.

"Executives report", commanded Giovanni on the 10 foot diameter round table. Persian walked into the room before they could answer to sit beside Giovanni.

"The attack was obviously from the Dark Defiers boat. But what's special about it is the water that it left behind. It was charged with elemental energy" said the male.

"Show me", said Giovanni beginning to pet Persian. The woman opened the laptop in front of her and hit a few buttons and the laptop in front of Giovanni popped up and opened showing pictures of lightly glowing water that was quickly evaporating leaving behind a light mist.

"The cause was this", said the woman as a picture of a small beam of water approaching the base came up on the screen. The photo was bad since the beam was so small. Suddenly the picture came up on the 3D holographic projector as the same 2D image from all directions in a reddish colour. It created a zoom in to the box of the beam.

"Doctor?" said the man to the Shiranui looking at the picture as well. Opening up his laptop Shiranui began typing into the computer. Another zoom box appeared zooming in on the origin of the beam. A small silhouette came up holding her hands out slightly to the side.

"Zoom, Colour mode on, enhance times 8, sharpen times 3", commanded Shiranui to the laptop with voice command on. A picture of a young girl was visible surrounded by an odd blue pattern. Giovanni looked at the familiar face with wonder.

"This is what I believed caused all that destruction with just one discharge" commented Dr. Shiranui. Giovanni began to scratch behind his felion cat pokemon's ears.

"Hmm… just this by itself?", asked Giovanni trying to find the familiar water patterns he had seen before. It was the stone design from the "Water Capital". Yes Misty Kasumi Waterflower-Williams is the one behind the design" said Doc.

"I know that. We need to stop this thing now and take hold off this entire Attack. Did you plan this already?" asked Giovanni explaining their current status versus the advancing girl on the enemy's side.

"Yes we have Giovanni as we speak a quarter of our Class C forces armed with defence guns and Pokemon have been ordered to gym one and the north walls. Another quarter has been set up as an external lookout defence plan. The third Quarter is about to be shipped via –army- helicopter. The fourth Quarter has brought out our famous Rocket launchers and are awaiting the arrival of the skimmers", debriefed Tatsumi to Giovanni. Tatsumi brought up a coloured schematic and frame of the compound and the colour coded quarter system. Giovanni looked at the schematic and truly deeply was pleased with the work done by all of them though he wouldn't show it. Giovanni looked at Tatsumi.

"And what about my Class A's", asked Giovanni in an authoritative but subtle tone. Just then the door behind Dr. Shiranui slid open automatically.

"Yeah what about us", said a scratchy voice from the darker back hallway with only blue lighting. The slightly detailed outline of Butch rose to the level of recognization by the mini Red King Security system in the room as he walked in. Butch was followed in by all the Team rocket class 'A' men (That's James, Buson, Bashou and Mondo). Cassidy followed by the women (Jessie, Zanna, Rion and Domino [with the hat]) walked up to stand beside Butch who stood closest to Giovanni. Other's went respectively to their male partners or equal (in a way). Rion went to stand beside Buson (Their just friends).

"Kytty! Kytty over here", called Bashou to Zanna who rolled her eyes before looking in his direction and going to him (There is only a mutual friendship relationship between Zanna and Bashou)

"Well you're going to need to divide some roles among you and some class B's and get out the final plan. This is just to give you the main Idea", said Tatsumi to Butch who looked at him. Tatsumi got up and pulled out his super light extendable wand with red light tip and tapped a few keys on his laptop. All the laptops went down including his. A dark schemed Windows 2000 desktop popped up and the blackish blue light shone onto the 8 elite's faces and bodies. Giovanni popped up his laptop again to contact a female lackey at a control panel.

"Report on Gym 1's status", ordered Giovanni. The lady pressed 2 buttons and information popped up at the side of screen.

"They are all A OK sir. Ketchum is really helping out as well", replied the woman in class C.

Giovanni closed his laptop and returned his attention to Tatsumi. Tatsumi looked at the holoimage.

"Run, Operation Atlantis"

End Part 3

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

FINNALLY FINISHED IT!!!! This Part was murderous even though all my parts are just about the same length. I'm not trying to make my story worse but truly this part wasn't as good as Part 1 or 2. Think I'm wrong tell me. The truth is nobody in my story is made up except for LEANNA GYME which is obviously Gym Leader (from the game I might add). Even Missingno is real. Soon I'm gonna be writing my own Sci-fi/Fantasy Story about the Creation of Pokemon as well as a spinoff that would be a (dark) sci-fi/fantasy about the Creation of Missingno. This is all I can tell you. ~Hundreds of thousands of years ago, At the bottom of what we call Lake Nyos, central Africa . . . a Pokemon is about to be born~. Don't even think about part 4 heh. If you want a reminder when it'll soon be up tell me and leave your email. Part next part of Sadistic V2 should be up soon. Stay Frosty.

P.S. Hint for something else – Sailor Moon/Cyber Six/ Metal Gear Solid (2)/Xenogears  but better not coming soon A S C E D R M O M A S T N R  _ _ _ _   _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

There it is all jumbled up now Have fun.  : kill Imagine THAT smiley face. Cya peeps
