Me: Hey there, once again I don't own Digimon and Pokemon. Yes, this story is back on the Digi/Poke site. Guess moving this story to the Digimon section didn't work.
Terra: I like to say I told ya so, but I don't feel like it.
Henry: Besides, our site gets at least ten or more fics each day.
Me: Terrific. Well on with the story. This story also is based on the Pokemon episode: Beauty and the Breeder. I had no idea that episode happened before Ash got his forth badge, but I'll just say that this is a parallel world, and that moment didn't happen at the same time or town.

Chapter 18: Beauty and the Breeder (Digimon/Pokemon remix)
Olivine City: 8:50 PM
Somewhere near the edge of the park, the little girl name Cherrie brushed her Girafarig, along with her new friend, Rosa, a DigiDestined, who decided to help her win the contest they just entered. Cherrie has already dressed her Pokemon with red bows on its ears. Rosa's Digimon sat near the Pokemon, acting like a doll so to not get anyone's attention.
"Oh you look so cute, Girafarig. We're defiantly gonna win this year!" Cherrie said as her Pokemon nodded. But then, she noticed Rosa biting her knuckles and widen her eyes. "Is something wrong, Rosa?"
"AIE YA YAIE! ITS HIM!!" she shouted with stars in her eyes.
"Who?"
"Him!" she sighed dreamily as she pointed to a boy with long black hair, and some kind of a Dr. Evil getup, on top of the hill, walking through the sidewalk.
"You know him?"
Before she was expecting an answer, Rosa grabbed her Digimon, and took off, searching for the boy.
"Rosa! Wait up!" Cherrie shouted as she recalled her Pokemon in a Poke-Ball.
Olivine pier: 8:50 PM
Inside the Magicrap sub, parked near the pier, Team Rocket gathered around as Jesse typed in to make a call. Just then, a man wearing a maroon suit, with a large cat called a Persion by his side appeared on the screen.
"What is it this time? You better have some excuse to why you haven't stolen a Pokemon!"
"Well sir, we have something better! Have you listened to the news yet?" Jesse asked.
"No! What does that have to do with anything other then your ignorance?"
"Um...well we have photos of rare and new Pokemon!" Jesse said.
"It better not be anything like that useless egg you brought long ago!"
"Oh its hundred times better then that, sir!" James said. "We e-mailed you the pictures!"
"Very well, one moment!" the boss said as he put them on hold. He turned on his computer and went over his homepage. He then got a look of pics. His eyes widened when he saw these photos. A creature that resembles Moltres. A huge T-Rex with a Cubone skull. A giant man-dragon with an X on its chest. A Meowth look-a-like. A ice demon fighting a Charizard. A Chinese vase that stood three stories tall. At first he thought these were fake, but after hearing a storm destroying most of the Cianwood boardwalk, he saw that the photos took place in the boardwalk, so now he knew that a storm didn't cause the wreckage. This was anything he ever dreamed of. The leader of Team Rocket smiled evilly, and then went back to the video phone.
"I never thought I say this....but good work!" he said, with the same tone he had before., making the trio surprised. "Where have these creatures been seen?"
"Well....they're owned by these trainers who's hanging out with the twerps right now!" Meowth said.
"Hmm....very well. I want you to follow them, so we can trace them. Your mission with the Pikachu has been terminated. Right now I don't care about some little electric rat! Your paycheck will be mailed to you shortly."
After he hanged up, the trio cheered in a group hug.
"YEAH! We got on the boss' good side for once!" Meowth said. "And some extra cash too!"
"So now what?" James asked.
"What do you mean? We do as the boss said and follow the twerps, this time without even blasting off again!" Jesse said.
"I mean what about the plan to steal those gizmos?"
"We're still on that."
"I got an idea that'll not only have those things in our grasp but some more extra cash as well!" Meowth said.
Downtown Olivine: 9:00 PM
In front of the quite Olivine Pokemon Center, the French blonde girl, and her Digimon paced around, waiting for the Catherine's blind date.
"Excuse me?" a voice said. When Catherine turned around, she found Nurse Joy and a Chansey. "May help you?"
"Uh...We...I mean I'm waiting for somebody."
Nurse Joy noticed Floramon behind Catherine's leg, who tried to pretend to be a toy.
"Ah, you must be one of those DigiDestined." Joy said.
"~gasp~ How did you know?"
"They told me all about the Digimon, and I figured you're one of them if you have a creature I never seen before."
Floramon rested from her painful statue mood. "Whew! I'm glad I don't have to pretend to be a toy! My back is killing me!"
"Excuse me!" Ken said as he and Wormmon came, getting their attention, but Wormmon ducked in the bushes, just incase she didn't knew anything about the Digimon.
"Oh, Ken! What can I do for you?" Nurse Joy asked.
"I'm looking for someone. This person is suppose to be my blind date."
"I believe that would be me!" Catherine said.
"Huh?" As Ken turned to her, a slight blush came across his face. He then got a look at Floramon, who was pretending to be a toy because of Ken's presence.
"So you're a DigiDestined too.." he stuttered, as Floramon sighed in relief again. "Oh....hello, my name is Ken Ichijoji."
"Oh...I heard about you. You're that famous genius in Japan in my world."
"Well....was. It's kind of a long story, but I don't wanna go back to it."
"Oh.....I won't ask about it.....oh, forgive me! My name is Catherine!" she said as she faced her hand to Ken. Ken then shook it. "So...I believe that since we are dating, we should do something at the festival."
"Um....yeah sure. I heard there's this Pokemon beauty contest. You want to go?"
"That will be swell."
"Well......oh I forgot." Ken said as he turned to motion Wormmon to come out of hiding. As he hopped to Ken, he picked up the little Digimon. "This is Wormmon. Wormmon, this is Catherine, a DigiDestined."
"Hello. It's nice to meet you." Wormmon shyly said, then Catherine waved sweetly and gently petted the Digimon.
"He's so sweet. This is my Digimon, Floramon."
The plant Digimon moved her head from Catherine's legs, from where she hid, and waved. Wormmon jumped out of Ken's arms, and gave his hellos to Floramon.
"Well, I suppose we better get going." Ken said as arched his arm toward Catherine, and then after she linked her arm with his, they walked off.
Nurse Joy and Chansey watched the four walk off. Joy was very touched at the scene, as well Chansey. But then a little girl with a rocky Digimon came out of nowhere, and stopped near Joy.
"Oh hello, can I.....are you a DigiDestined too?" she asked as she looked at the Gotsumon.
"How did you know about us, seniorita?" Rosa asked.
"I met them."
"Oh.....have you seen this mucho bello hombre?"
"Mucho what?.....wait that's Spanish....no I haven't seen a handsome man, unless you're talking about a boy named Ken."
"THAT'S HIM!!" Rosa shouted as hearts was shown in her eyes. "WHERE IS HE?"
"Uh...he's with his blind date."
Soon her little world filled with her little Ken was destroyed. The thing that Joy told her was like a meteorite that blew up that little world of hers. After a few little tears, her faced frowned, and her head shook. Then she yelled up a storm, shouting words in Spanish, making Joy, Chansey, and Gotsumon back away from the screaming Rosa.
"WHY THAT ESTUPIDO @#%@%%^&(*(^$@#$&^#@!@%%^&**$#!@##%$%%"
"WHAT IS SHE SAYING?" Joy shouted, trying to get her voice heard from the noise.
"BELIEVE ME, YOU DON'T WANNA KNOW!" Gotsumon said.
After she stopped, she grabbed her Digimon and ran off to find Ken, and pound his date to the ground. Shortly after she left, Cherrie ran out from the alley to Joy, who was rubbing her ears.
"Excuse me, Nurse Joy. Have you seen a Spanish..?"
"Yes, she ran that way!" she said quickly as she pointed forward.
"Thank you!" Cherrie said, running off after Rosa.
"My word....kids say the darnest things, even in a different language."
"Chansey."
"Yolei, I don't know about this." Cody said as he and Yolei were walking through the park area of the festival, with Umpamon pretending to be a toy, as well as Poromon.
"Come on, Cody, it won't be so bad!"
"A eight year old kid dating someone from another world. And I thought I seen it all."
"Eight year old boys always date every year, Cody. You need some excitement in your life!"
"Wasn't the Digital World enough?"
"No, not for you! No come on! I'm sure there's a girl out there who's dying to date a cute little guy like you!" Yolei cheerfully said as she dragged Cody with her.
Meanwhile somewhere in the park, Ken and Catherine, along with their Digimon who had to sit on their shoulders, pretending to be dolls again, walked along to the contest, in a slow pace, talking and laughing, until....
"OH SENIOR KEN!!!!"
Ken choked, as did Wormmon. They knew that voice from anywhere, but they figured maybe they're just seeing things. They looked in front of them and found Rosa running up to Ken. Ken had the same expression Matt made when he saw Jun in the Poke-World.
"Oh....no.....!" Ken shuddered.
"Not...her....!" Wormmon gulped.
"Who? You know her?" Catherine asked.
Rosa jumped and tackled Ken to the ground, hugging him after that. Ken got up, freed himself off of Rosa's clutches, and gently got her off of him.
"Rosa, how did you get here?" he asked.
"A man in white brought me here. I'm so glad to see you, mi amor!"
"~groan~ That's...very nice and all, but I'm very busy right now, so...!" Ken said a bit annoyed.
"Ken, who is she?" Catherine asked with a brow raised.
"Uh.....this is Rosa....she's a little friend....Rosa, this is..."
"SOMEONE WHO TOOK MY HOMBRE!!!" Rosa shouted directly at Catherine.
Catherine gently laughed, trying to think the little girl was just playing.
"Um....hello, I'm Catherine!"
"I don't care who you are! STAY AWAY FROM MI AMOR!!" Rosa shouted, making Catherine feel a ting of anger.
"Rosa, why don't you just leave Ken alone? There's no way you and Ken can work out!" Wormmon said as he glared at the little girl.
"AND WHY NOT, ESTUPIDO WORM?"
"Because you're half his age! He's too old for you!"
"SO WHAT?!! Age has no meaning when it comes to love!" Rosa said, making flirty looks at a frightened Ken.
"~sigh~ You're hopeless!" Wormmon said.
"I try telling her that." Gotsumon said.
"Ken, what's wrong? I heard screams!" Yolei said as she and Cody ran to the group.
"Thank god you're here! You gotta do something! Rosa is ruining my date, and I think Catherine is about to go ballistic!" Ken said, nervously.
"Who's Rosa?"
Ken pointed to the girl, who was shouting at Catherine, while Wormmon and Gotsumon tried to calm her down. Floramon back away, noticing veins showing from Catherine's forehead. Ken quickly gave a brief history about Rosa to Yolei.
"Oh.....ha ha ha! I was like that!" Yolei laughed. "I know just the thing. All she needs is someone at her age."
"But who?" Ken asked.
Yolei gave a evil smile and then turned toward Cody.
"Oh no!" Cody said franticly, as he rapidly shook his head. "I'm not going out with her! She has too much anger problems, and I don't even know her!"
Yolei grabbed Cody's shoulders, and moved him facing where Rosa is.
"Come on, Cody! This your chance to show off your suave moves!" Yolei said as she shoved Cody, knocking Rosa over. "Opps! Too hard! Sorry! Okay, Ken, you and Catherine have yourself a good time...RUN!!"
Ken grabbed Catherine and their Digimon and ran far away as they could, while Yolei hid behind a nearby tree, watching the two in action.
"Oh sorry! Gomen!" Cody said, nervously apologizing as he lend Rosa a hand.
Rosa angrily swiped her hand away, and got herself up. "Look what you did! You scare off mi amor with that French fry!" Rosa shouted, making Cody step back. She ran off a few steps after Ken, but stopped, looking around to find him. "Where is he...?" she asked herself, almost about to break into tears. A few seconds after, she fell to her knees and let out her tears, crying as her heart shattered.
Cody felt pity for the Mexican girl, and he walked up to Rosa, along with Gotsumon.
"Um.....I'm really sorry about this...!"
"Yeah, its not so bad....do you have food?" Umpamon asked.
"Just leave me alone!" she cried. "~sob~ He hates me! That's why he went out with that French fry ~sob~!"
"Oh Rosa!" Gotsumon sighed as he patted her shoulder.
"I'm pretty sure he doesn't. He's just frightened about the way you treat him." Cody said, making her cry even more. "Why did Yolei made me do this? How about I buy you a candy apple to cheer you up? What do you say?"
Rosa calmed down, but sniffed through all her crying. She looked up to Cody, who smiled at her, lending her a hand again. This time the Hispanic girl smiled back and let Cody help her up. Yolei walked out of her hiding spot, smiling at the young DigiDestineds.
"Can I pick em' or what?" Yolei said to herself.
In the town streets of the festival, Matt was not having a good time. One, because of a certain girl who won't even let go of his arm, and two: Jun won't leave him alone.
"Ah we meet again." Gary said as he came by them, eating a candy apple.
"Oh hey, Gary. I bet you're having a better time then I am, huh?"
"Eh...you can say that."
"Hey, why aren't you with Crystal?" Jun asked. "You two looked like a cute couple....just like me and my Matty-Chan!" she snuggled on Matt's shoulder, making him cringe in disgust. "Ooo...do you work out?"
"Hey girl, I got no feelings for her, alright! She likes Ketchum!" Gary said.
"Aw, do I detect a little jealously from you, kid?"
"I'M NOT JEALOUS!!" Gary shouted as his face turned red. "Besides, I like to see him squeal."
"Just ignore her." Matt said. "You going to that beauty contest? We're thinking of heading out there."
"We?" Gary moved closer to Matt's ear and whispered: "I thought you were gonna ditch her?"
"I heard that!" Jun shouted as she frowned, insulted of the kid giving her man those cruel thoughts. "Matty wouldn't do that?"
Matt grabbed his face in embarrassment, feeling like the whole world heard that. "Jun, please don't call me that!"
"Oh okay, Yamato."
"It's Matt, just plan Matt."
"Um....sure." Jun then softly lowered her head on his shoulder, like it was a soft pillow.
For some reason, Matt didn't cringed when she did that. For a messed up hair, that almost resembles Tai's, it felt soft as silk gently cuddling up his neck......Matt shook his head, trying to break those thoughts. What was he thinking? There's no way he would have feelings for the queen of the mob fans. The girl was as ferocious as a lion, its scary.
"From what I'm seeing, I think you're enjoying this!" Gary said with a grin.
"Oh shut up."
Meanwhile, Yolei walked through the huge crowd of the festival. The crowd wasn't too crowded, there was plenty of room to walk around. Yolei slowly walked to the contest with no worries where she walking into, no care if she's happy. Actually, she wished she was happy. Sure she acts so cheerful like she has no care in the world in front of her friends, but some times when she's alone, she feels empty, incomplete, like a piece of a lego toy missing. She is happy she hooked up her little friend, Cody, with some one that was bugging Ken, but almost everyone seems to have someone,.....except her.....and maybe Izzy and Shingo, but they're too hooked up to computers to care. She once was Ken's girlfriend for a couple of months, but deep in her heart, she was in love with Daisuke Motmiya, and Ken knew that; That's why they broke up.
She used to have a big crush on Davis, which is why she always picked on him, but she did had a truck load of crushes on other guys she sees, like Michael, Wills, Ken, even Gennai, but they never last. Her love for Davis was stronger then all of them put together. But why did she gave up waiting for him in the first place to go out with Ken, besides that she was attracted to his good looks? Maybe it was because the fact Davis was the only one who believed that Ken was turning over a new leaf, and she decided to be nice to him like Davis did. Maybe it's because Davis had a huge crush on Hikari Kamiya, and she felt she could never compete against her best friend. Or maybe it was because she found out that Davis wants to make his career behind a noodle cart. She did say once that she wanted a guy who has lots and lots of money.
Instantly, her thoughts were broken when she sensed Davis near. Far before her, she Davis and Kari heading over to the contest, holding hands tightly like they were physically connected. A force inside her gave her fear; fear to be afraid to be seen by them. She nervously hid behind the side of a junk store cart. She popped her head to see the two happily walking to the contest. Oh how she longed to be the girl to be holding Davis's hand, to be held in his arms, to have her lips press against his. That longing will never come true now that Davis finally has his dream girl. A tear escapes from her eye, as she slowly walks back in the shadows and sat under a tree, burying her head on her knees and cry.
".....~sob~.....Davis, you stupid idiot.........!"
Elsewhere, TK walked through the crowd with the park on his left side, until he his heart skipped a beat when he saw his angel walking toward his way with Davis. TK also had the same need Yolei did to hide, which he did behind a side of another cart, and ducked in the shadows. He was a bit relived that they turned and went in the park. TK watched Kari walk away from him as if a piece of him was flying away from him forever. Life just wasn't fair; he knew Kari since he was very young, he took care of her when she was very sick, he helped get away from Piedmon, he searched for her frantically in the Dark Ocean, and look what that got him: Nothing, that's what! All Davis had done was constantly flirts with her whenever he gets the chance, whine about why can't he go with Kari or why does TQ gets to go with Kari, etc. And to his surprise and everyone else's', his annoying efforts has paid off. Of course Davis did get a few scores with Kari that made TK a bit jealous like the time Tai gave him his goggles, Kari just said:
"They look really cute."
Or when they freed Shogungekomon:
"Davis, you're so insensitive!" Kari said before she turned her back at him and frowned.
Davis danced around like a idiot an shouted: "Hey, I'm so sensitive I use a special toothpaste every time I eat ice cream! BAH!"
He couldn't believe Kari laughed at that. He never made Kari laugh that much, maybe sometimes, but not a lot like Davis. Davis usually makes her laugh by his stupidly, but he guess that's what her had a crush on him. If only he could hold his only angel within his arms, fell her soft skin, her smooth hair.....now to him things don't turn out the way you want them to be, look at Tai and Sora.
"Hey I didn't expect to see you here."
TK startled before he looked below to find Patamon sitting next to him with a gloom face.
"Patamon? What are you doing here? I thought you were back in the lighthouse with the other Digimon?"
"Well yeah.....I just thought three was a crowd." Patamon said in a sad tone.
"What do you mean by.......?" Then it hit him. Since Wizardmon returned from the dead, Gatomon has been very gee with joy more then usual. "Oh......I see......guess we're all in the same boat now, huh?"
"What do you mean? You're competition got your dream girl by luck. Mine just had to show up from the grave, and Gats just cries out her tears on him and go ga ga over him."
"Gee.....thanks a lot."
"Hey....sorry....I don't hate Wizardmon....its great that he's alive and everything but......"
"Yeah...."
The two exhaled a depressing sigh. After TK got up, he from where he is, Yolei crying in other street.
"Man.....I guess us DigiDestined have more love problems as it is." TK said as Patamon flew on top of his head.
Yolei still sat in the spot she hid from Davis and Kari, crying her heart out. She kicked herself for making fun of Davis, not even telling him sooner before she had some feelings for Ken, before Davis and Kari officially hooked up.
"Hey, Yolei?"
Yolei startled as she snapped her head straight. She looked up to find TK and Patamon looking down at her.
"Not much of a good time for you as well, huh?" TK asked.
"~sigh~ except for hooking Cody up with someone......Damn it! Life completely sucks, even in a different world." Yolei spat as she stood up, wiping her tears.
"Well that just shows you can't escape it. Its universal."
"Yeah.." After a few seconds of silence, Yolei raised her head with a face of inspiration. "You know...maybe our clueless crushes can't peel their eyes to see how we feel about them, but we can't let that bother us right now!"
"We can't?"
"You know tomorrow we have that world tour, so right now, lets just try to have a good time! Lets go together, TK, you know as friends!" Yolei leaned closer to TK's ear with a sinister look. "And maybe we can get Davis and Kari to be jealous!"
TK thought for a moment. Normally he doesn't like to get Kari angry, but he shrugged and said: "Sure why not?"
Olivine Gym: 9:24 PM
Hiro and Whitney were somewhere in an grass floored alley, close to the gym they don't notice, doing the usual making out, sitting on a old bench. At the corner of Hiro's left eye, he spotted his rival, Kamon, following the gym leader Jasmine up to her gym. Hiro pulled out from the kiss, looking at the two.
"What are you looking at?" Whitney asked, trying to reach up his lips for more.
"Check it out, Whit! Kamon is heading to the gym."
"Yeah, that's nice." she moaned like she doesn't care, still trying to kiss him, but Hiro keeps moving his head up away from her.
"I gotta check this out! Maybe see what I'm up against!"
"Do we have to?" she softly whined.
"Hey you can.....!" looking at her face, he moaned a bit annoyed knowing she still wants more, even though it was really fine with him. He gave her one five second smooch. "Happy, babe?"
"Oh yeah!" she said with a wide smile.
Inside the gym, Hiro and Whitney sat on the bleachers, without letting Kamon and Jasmine know of their presence. The dirt gym field was filled with large gray rocks, coating the field in a mountain feel. Jasmine stood on a huge platform at one end, while Kamon stood at the other end at the very dirt floor.
"Should've guessed 'Mr. Go-lucky' would try to get a badge behind my back!" Hiro said, laying his head on Whitney's who had her head on his left shoulder. "I wonder what kind of Pokemon Jasmine has, and is it enough to beat his. You know Kamon always go for the kill!"
"I heard Jasmine uses steel types. I'm pretty sure this will be an interesting fight."
"This will be a three on three Pokemon battle! Let the match begin!" the ref shouted.
"Alright, since I'm feeling a bit generous, I'll go first!" Kamon said with a grin as he held a poke-ball. "GO! SNEASEL!"
A small dark Pokemon with large claws, and pink feathers emerged from the poke-ball, standing in a claw fighting stance.
"That's a new one." Hiro said as he pulled out his poke-dex.
Sneasel: The sharp claw Pokemon. Its paws conceal sharp claws. If attacked, it suddenly extends the claws and startles the enemy. Trainer's Pokemon level: 51.
"Looks like Kamon's second favorite. A dark and ice Pokemon. Its best suits him." Hiro said.
"No surprise." Whitney shrugged.
"I'll start." Jasmine said, holding a ball across her face, like a ninja preparing to throw stars. "GO, TEDDIURSA!"
Out of the poke-ball came a small teddy bear Pokemon, with a innocent bear face, and a moon tattooed on its forehead.
Kamon hold his laughter while he scanned the Pokemon, which it was level 35. "Ha...are you trying to mock me?" Kamon laughed. "Sneasel, give that poor excuse of a Pokemon a good Faint Attack!"
The claw Pokemon suddenly seemed dim, and then was plan out of sight. The bear Pokemon looked around in confusion, searching for its opponent. From out of nowhere, Teddiursa was getting scratched like some raging lion attacking in the shadows. As the bear staggered back, the dark Pokemon reappeared.
"Now Slash it!"
SLASH!! The Sneasel violently slashed the Teddiursa right across the face, giving it a huge cut. The teddy bear Pokemon feel on its back, bleeding on his furry face.
"NO! TEDDIURSA!" Jasmine cried, gasping at what happened her poor Pokemon.
"Teddiursa is unable to battle! Round one goes to Sneasel!" the ref shouted.
As Jasmine recalled her Pokemon, Kamon stood with a proud look, closing his eyes, and crossing his arms, while his Pokemon slashed the air in a victory dance.
"You didn't have to finish so violently. Its just a game!" Jasmine shouted.
"Hey I do what ever it takes to win, girl! You shouldn't have sent such a weak ass Pokemon against me!"
"That little jerk! How dare he do that to that Teddiursa!" Whitney shouted, standing like she was about to pounce on him, but Hiro held her down.
"As much as I like to see you pound Kamon straight to hell, lets let Jasmine handle this."
"Alright, you want to play it like that...GO, MAGNETON!!"
The triple Magnemite Pokemon emerged, sparking up with electric energy, while hovering above the ground.
"A little better, but still no contest!" Kamon said, recalling Sneasel, and picking up another poke-ball. "GO, MAGMAR!!"
The lava Pokemon emerged, blowing little flames its nose.
"Magneton, Thunder-Bolt!"
"Counter with a Flamethrower!"
The two Pokemon threw out their power, both colliding and explode in a stalemate. But then Magmar went through the smoke and used a Fire Punch on the electric, steel type, without it seeing the Magmar coming. Magmar then fired out another Flamethrower, finishing the Pokemon.
"Magneton is unable to battle! Round two goes to Magmar!"
"That was a easy win. At least it wasn't too gruesome like the first round." Whitney said. "I hope Jasmine has something up her sleeve, cause Kamon isn't some trainer who shows mercy!"
"I have a feeling...Jasmine is just warming up. No pun intended on the fire thing!"
"Well you beaten two of my Pokemon without losing one Pokemon or having them harmed. I hope you're proud of yourself."
"Please! You're not even much of a challenge! I don't even feel good about winning this one, winning to some weak so-called gym leader! Where's the challenge?"
"Hrmph!....Well I must warn you, with this next one, power is not gonna fare! It takes a kind heart and patients to win!"
"You've been watching too many cartoons from what I picked up. You realize that Pokemon are just fighting tools? A Pokemon battle is war, and if you don't have the courage to go out without mercy, well then too bad, weakling!"
"You poor soul.....I'm sorry that I have to do this!" Jasmine said, shaking her head in pity, while holding a poke-ball. "GO, STEELIX!!!"
From out the poke-ball, a shiny silver coated rock snake, that stood thirty feet arose, with its roars covering the entire building. It was loud for Kamon, Hiro, and Whitney, but Jasmine calmly stood there like it was no big deal.
"A STEELIX?!!" Kamon shouted. He never expected a sweet, innocent girl like Jasmine to tame such a beastly creature like Steelix.
"Great hoglay moglay!" Hiro choked, pulling his poke-dex.
Steelix: The iron snake Pokemon. The evolved form of Onix. Its body has been compressed, deep underground. As a result, its body is even harder then diamond. Trainer's Pokemon level: 66
"You must be kidding!" Hiro said in fear. "I can't believe a girl like her has something like THAT!"
"I kind of find it obvious!" Whitney said.
"Wasn't expecting you to have this Pokemon, but you think that's gonna scare me? HA!" Kamon said, trying to keep a confident face. "FLAMETHROWER!!"
"Steelix, use Rock Slide!"
As the fire type blows a flame blast, Steelix clamped on the dirt, and raised its head, creating a huge rock slide, that put out the flame and Magmar, like a wave one in a half stories high.
"Magmar is unable to battle! Steelix wins the round!"
"Lucky! Just lucky! GO, SNEASEL!!"
The dark/ice Pokemon once again stood in the battle field, this time fighting against a thirty foot iron snake.
"Steelix, use Sandstorm!"
The giant Pokemon growled as it glowed in a purple energy. As it did, the dirt twirled around the field like a tornado. Sneasel felt pain as the tiny rocks flying around the sandstorm jabbed its body.
"Sneasel, suck it up, and use a Ice Beam!"
The claw Pokemon fired a blue beam straight at the Steelix's face, but the iron Pokemon simply moved its head away from the beam.
"Iron Tail, right now!"
With one full force from its large tail, it nailed the dark/ice type right into a wall, colliding it while making a small crater mark.
"Ooo, that's gotta hurt!" Hiro and Whitney said as they winced away from that blow.
"Sneasel is unable to battle! Steelix wins the round!"
Kamon angrily stared at the gym leader, while recalling his Pokemon. Never before a trainer gave him such grief, besides Hiro. It sickens him, feeling like a weak wounded animal being pounded by a raging tiger, which is Jasmine. He pulled out a poke-ball and grin in a angry, evil smile.
"I had enough going easy on your cute ass! It's time to stop playing games! GO FERTIGATOR!!"
His most powerful Pokemon emerged from the ball, roaring in a battle cry. The two dangerous Pokemon glared each other, growling like raging jungle animals.
"Well this outha be good! Bet ya ten Jasmine is gonna win!" Hiro said.
"I don't wanna lose my money!"
"Crud!"
"Now, use Hydro Pump!" Kamon shouted.
The water Pokemon spat out a huge water blast, heading straight at the steel type like a rocketing comet.
"Steelix, you know what to do!" Jasmine calmly said, before the giant Pokemon dug underground, dodging the blast. The Pokemon quickly emerged from under the Fertigator, and throwing him high, crashing to the ceiling and dropping back down like a rock.
"Ouch! Don't wanna be him!" Hiro said.
"GAH! FERTIGATOR, GET UP! YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE FAILURES!!"
The gator Pokemon struggled up to his feet, but was totally wasted of his energy. He was cover in dirt and scratches everywhere. The Pokemon breathed hard, shaking like it was about to give.
Jasmine closed her eyes and shook her head as it pointed down to her feet, disappointed of her opponent's actions. "Now I don't feel good winning this one." She pointed out the field, while saying none too excitedly: "Bind it."
Within a second, the rock Pokemon wrapped its body around the water Pokemon, squeezing the very life out of him. But after a few seconds, the Pokemon released the Fertigator, and let him fall to the ground and lay there.
"Fertigator is unable to battle! The winner of this match goes to gym leader of Olivine gym, Jasmine!"
After the Sandstorm died down, Kamon kneeled and pound the floor in frustration. The winner, Jasmine, didn't act like one. She hung her head, looking at her shoes, while her red hair covered her face. If you can see through it, you would know that she's crying.
"Man, Jasmine is acting like she lost." Hiro said.
"Guess she was trying to prove something, and she was wrong. Maybe." Whitney said.
"Stupid, STUPID! Stupid freakin weak Pokemon of mine!" Kamon shouted, pounding the ground like a child.
"I told you, power has nothing to do with this!" Jasmine said, with head straight, and her face covered in tears, though she was too far away from Kamon for him to notice. "You haven't gave faith in you Pokemon's ability. Only then when you find your kind heart, you'll defeat me." As she walked down the stairs and head toward the back door, she pulled out her poke-ball and said: "For now you won't have a rematch with me until you find that kind spirit I know you have. Steelix, return!" After that, she walked out the back door, leaving Kamon on his knees, feeling his pride slipping away.
Olivine Park: 9:50 PM
Backstage of the contest, Ash was dragged inside by Crystal, since he wanted to see how Brock is doing. After Ash pulled his arm away and rubbed it, he awed at all the Pokemon that belonged to the contestants in the room. Lot of them had so much make up on they look like clowns, which almost made Ash crack a laugh. He and Crystal walked around the room, looking at the trainers or breeders fixing up the Pokemon. Most of them looked pretty good, they might win the show for sure. But Ash knows that Susie and Brock entered the contest, and he knew that if anyone knew about breeding, its Susie and Brock.
"Hey, isn't that the kid who was with those Digimon trainers?" Crystal asked as she pointed to Cody who was helping Cherrie and Rosa on a Girafarig.
"I think that's DigiDestined you mean, and what's he doing here?" he asked. The two walked toward the three, waving hello. "Hey Cody, I didn't know you entered."
"Not really. I just met these girls and decided to help them out ."
"Oh.....oh hey, Cherrie! How's it going?" Ash said.
"Ash! Hi! I haven't seen you in a while!"
"Ah come on, it was only a few weeks ago!"
"You know her?" Cody asked.
"Yeah. I battled her Girafarig a while ago. It was a pretty tough Pokemon; Almost beat Pikachu with a move call Future Sight. Hey who's the other girl?"
"This is Rosa. She's also a DigiDestined." Cody said.
"She is? Oh she must be the other three Gennai told us about. Cool! Do you know where Brock and Susie are?"
"They're right behind us."
Ash walked around the giraffe Pokemon to find Brock and Susie grooming Vulpix.
"Oh hey, guys. I didn't see you back here!"
"Hey Ash, how was your day?" Brock asked.
"Its a very long story."
"I know, Cody told me all about it! I'm talking about tonight."
"Oh well...." Ash was interrupted when Crystal forcedly linked her arm with Ash's.
"We're having a good time! I'm Crystal, Hiro's sister, and Ashy's date!"
"Your...date?" Brock asked with a brow up, as Ash shamefully nodded. This is a disappointment. He knows how much Ash and Misty like each other, even though they never admitted it.
"Hey you're entering Vulpix to the contest?" Ash asked.
"Yep, Brock also returned her to me." said Susie, while she massaged Vulpix's shoulders.
"He did? But I thought you still wanted him to keep Vulpix?"
"Like I said to her, Vulpix was never mine to begin with! She and Susie need some long quaintly time together."
"Oh I see...."
"So there you are!" a familiar voice said, making Ash and Brock shock to hear.
"GAH! Professor Oak?" Ash and Brock said as he, Tracey, and Michael walked to them.
"Well....I figured you be here." Oak said.
"How did you know where to find me?" Ash gulped, then Tracey answered.
"Well I figured you'll be here in this festival. Then when we heard that Brock entered in this contest, we knew you'll be here with him."
"Oh gee...thanks a lot, Tracey." Ash sarcastically said.
Oak moved a step in front of Ash and looked at Cody, who looked back at him with a uncomfortable look.
"Is he part of this Digimon team, Michael?" Oak asked.
"MICHAEL?!" Cody shouted.
Michael moved out from behind Tracey and stood by Oak.
"Yeah he is."
"I was gonna ask how he knew about the Digimon for a sec, but now I don't have to." Cody said with a stern look. "Why did you tell him?"
"I had to! Gennai said that Tracey was involved in this too!"
"Why is he involved?" Ash asked.
"Never mind that! Why didn't you tell me anything about the Digimon, Ash?" Oak asked.
"Professor I couldn't do that! They're not like Pokemon who you can just research on, they're way dangerous, and I've seen how dangerous they are!"
"Perhaps, but you should've told me anywise."
"Excuse me, sir!" Cody said. "It was our authority for Ash to say anything about the Digimon to you. We don't want anyone here to find out about them, otherwise they'll find a way to treat them like they were Pokemon!"
"I understand. If we did find out about them, it would be my honor to not let anything happen to these creatures. We Pokemon researchers treat Pokemon with high respect, and we will do the same for Digimon as well." Prof. Oak looked down and notice the Gotsumon who was in doll mode on Rosa's leg. "Ah, I see there's another Digimon here." He kneed down to the Digimon. "Hello there, what's your name?" But the Digimon didn't speak or move. "Don't worry there, you can talk to me."
The Digimon cautiously turned his head toward the professor.
"I'm....Gotsumon." he said, shyly.
Samuel Oak smiled and pet the Digimon on the head. "Ha, ha! You kind of resemble a Geodude with a body. Ha, ha! I'm Professor Oak. Honored to meet you." then he also notice Umpamon. "Ah and who are you?"
"I'm Umpamon, Cody's Digimon, glad to meet you!" he said, bouncing up and down. "Do you have food?"
"He is nice, Ash." Cody said.
"I told ya!"
"Good thing we're far away from all these people, otherwise they'll hear us about the Digimon!" Crystal said.
"~sigh~ its a shame these creatures have to go back to where they belong." Oak said as he stood up while Tracey made some sketches on his sketch pad. "I could spend a life time studying these magnificent creatures.....it would be my honor if I could help you kids in your quest!"
"And what do you have in mind to help us, Professor Oak?" Brock asked.
"I don't know...but I would like to meet these other Digimon trainers."
"That's DigiDestined, and I'll introduce you to most of them." Ash said.
Outside the stage, the crowd full of citizens, trainers and so forth, Kari, Davis, Matt, Jun, Gary, Rithcie, Casey, and Falkner joined with the others: Tai, Sora, Mimi, Joe, and Misty, who were a few meters away from the stage.
"Hey guys!" Matt said as the group waved. His group however had their jaws open, well the DigiDestined ones, when they saw Tai and Sora holding hands.
"Uhh.......?" Davis stuttered.
Tai and Sora looked at them, confused to why they had those looks. They noticed their eyes pointing down. When they followed, they blushed in a crimson red when they finally noticed, and they quickly moved their hands away from each other.
"Uh.....sorry, Sora!" Tai said, hoping she won't get mad.
"That's okay...Tai!" Sora said with the same thought. "Whew! Glad he didn't get mad. I didn't notice I was holding his hand. I gotta control my urges or it'll destroy our friendship."
"Whew! Glad she didn't get mad. I didn't notice I was holding her hand. I gotta control my urges or it'll destroy our friendship."
"Are you two.....?" Matt asked, moving his finger around, while his face was still shocked.
"NO!!" Tai and Sora shouted while violently shaking their heads.
"We're....just doing this just to get Catherine off my back!" Tai said.
"Why?" Falkner asked.
"Uh......I have my reasons." Tai said as Matt looked at him with a grim face.
"What reasons is that, Tai? I hope you don't have someone back home! If you hurt Sora because of it, you will answer to me, BIG time!" Matt thought.
"Where's Hiro, Whitney, TK, and Yolei?" Joe asked.
"Ah Hiro and Whitney are probably making out somewhere, hope not too much if you know what I mean." Falkner said. "And I don't know where the other two went."
"Hey guys!"
The crew turned around as TK and Yolei, with Patamon on TK's head, walked to the group with their arms linked. Davis, Kari and the others were really surprised at this, not as much as with Tai and Sora, but still.
"Whoa...are you two..?" Tai asked in surprise.
"Well kind of! We don't have any dates, so we hooked up right now!" Yolei cheerfully said as she threw an arm around TK's shoulders.
Kari couldn't help but feel a ting of jealously, but she shook it off, reminding herself that TK is just a friend, he can what ever he wants. But then again, why is she feeling this? She has Davis.
Davis didn't notice being jealous over Yolei until a few seconds when he gasped and felt disgusted by the thought. Davis feeling jealous over Yolei? EW! He slapped himself for thinking that. Why should he think about Yolei when he finally has the girl of his dreams?
As Misty looked over at the left side of the other group, and frowned when she saw Ash and Crystal coming up to them. She was gonna go over there and strangle him, until she gasped when she saw Professor Oak, Tracey, and some other boy with the two.
"Professor Oak?" Misty said.
"Gramps?" Gary said.
"Ah, hello there, Misty, grandson!"
"Uh....what are you doing here?" Misty asked.
"Well I wanted to see these Digimon up close and personal." Oak said, which made the Digidestineds' jaws drop.
Tai snapped his head toward Ash and shouted: "ASH, I thought I told you to not tell him?"
"Actually, I told him." Michael said with a nervous grin.
"MICHAEL! WHY DID YOU?" Mimi shouted.
"Gennai told me to! He said that Tracey here is a new recruit!" Michael said as the watcher waved.
Tai covered his head in frustration. Its a good thing its too loud for other people to hear. "~sigh~ alright. Sir, will you promise that you won't say anything about the you know what?"
"Don't worry. You have my word. But I still will like to know whatever I can about these creatures."
"Just as long as you don't say anything about this to anyone. We have our resident genius named Izzy. He's not here, but you'll probably meet him later on. He can tell you what ever you want to know."
"Well that's good. I'm Professor Oak, this is Tracey Sketchit, my assistant and Pokemon watcher, and you already know this young man."
"Well I'm Tai, the leader of the DigiDestined, and this is Sora, Mimi, Joe, Matt, Jun, Davis, my sister Kari, TK, and Yolei. The others are Pokemon trainers, Ritchie, Casey, and Falkner."
"I've met Ritchie. It's a pleasure to meet the rest of you." Oak said as the group waved. Just then the lights from atop the stage lit. "Ah, I believe the show is about to start."
Behind the gym building, Hiro and Whitney walked outside, where they found Jasmine under a light post, sitting on it, and crying on her knees. Hiro was confused to why she is crying. She handed Kamon's butt to him, so why is she acting like she lost.
"You okay, Jasmine?" Whitney asked, but got no response.
"Come on, you broke his face like no tomorrow! What's the deal with the crying?" Hiro asked.
"~sob~.....that's the point.....I won!" Jasmine sobbed, making the two look at each other in total confusion.
"And that's a bad thing?" Hiro and Whitney asked.
"I.....was hoping I can prove to Kamon...that he does have a kind heart......but he's too afraid to show it.....like something is stopping him....!" Jasmine cried even harder and she buried her face in her knees. "WHY? Why is he afraid to show he has a kind heart?"
This was something Hiro was not used to: Somebody thinking that Kamon is a nice guy. Ever since he started training his sister's Pokemon got stolen by Kamon, and he used the Totodile to beat Hiro's Cyandaquil. Though Hiro did beat him every time he bumps in to him, but he had seen how violently he battles, how cruel he treats his Pokemon, and heard those things from many trainers lips that Kamon battled and defeated. This is the first time anyone ever said Kamon has a good heart, something Hiro and his friends finds impossible.
"Hey look, he's an idiot who can't bare showing a bit of sensitivity." Whitney said.
"Yeah, I've known him more then anyone else, and I still don't know what made his head like that. Maybe he does have a heart, but.......its up to him to believe he does."
".......I believe you're right...." Jasmine said, with her crying calming down.
"Hey you wanna go with us to the contest? Everyone is already there I bet." Whiney said.
"I'll catch up with you two later."
The two nodded and walked to the contest, leaving a crying Jasmine alone in under the dim yellow light in the middle of the darkness.
"Please find your heart, Kamon.....I have faith in you." she whispered softy, as her watered eyes looked up at the sky, failing to notice something glow from her chest.
Olivine Park: 10: 30 PM
The contest already finished ten contestants, and Rosa, Cherrie, and Cody went up with the giraffe Pokemon, waving at the crowd on the podium.
"Hey look its Cherrie!" Misty said. "I didn't know she was here!"
"Neither did I know Cody joined this too!" Sora said.
"Hey some guy named Zack is after Susie." Ash said as he looked at the programs.
"Yeah so is Brock, and that's the problem." Misty said while holding Togepi.
"Huh? What do you mean by that?"
"Toge priiiiii!"
Inside the backstage, Brock and Susie was just putting the finishing touches on Vulipx, until three figures in med outfits busted through the back door.
"We're from the Pokemon League Authority. We're here to examine the Pokemon for any medical violations!" the woman said.
"Any one who fails to cooperate will be disqualified from the contest!" the man said.
"I never heard of anything like this." Zack said.
"Me neither." Susie said.
The three strange figures easily took the Pokemon, even Vulpix, out in the back. After all was done, they waved out to the crew.
"Thanks for your cooperation!" with that, they slammed the door behind them.
"I don't like this. There's something fishy about those three, Umpamon." Cody said, but he kicked his foot a little and didn't feel anything near it. "Umpamon?" Cody looked down to find him gone. "He's gone!"
"Gotsumon too!" Rosa said.
"Those three must of took them!" Susie said before Brock pumped his fist saying.
"I bet I know who those three are!"
At that moment, Tai, Ash, Misty, Sora, Joe, and Mimi came up to the room, with the Digimon on their shoulders, pretending to be toys.
"What happened? Why is everyone gathering near the backdoor?" Ash asked.
"Some three stole the Pokemon, and Cody and Rosa's Digimon!" Brock said.
"Three? I bet I know who!" Ash said, as he ran to the door.
As they got to the crowd, Zack used all his might to get the door open, but it won't budge.
"They locked the door on us!" Zack shouted.
"Let me." Brock said as he picked up a poke-ball. "GO, GEODUDE!!"
From the poke-ball, a small rock creature with long rocky arms emerged.
"Geodude, break down the door!"
With one hard tackle, the rock Pokemon easily bust through the door. The crowd ran outside, but stopped and looked up to a Meowth hot air balloon pulling up a huge hanger thing with chains attached to it.
"Yep, knew it was them!" Ash said.
"Hey aren't those the guys we met back at the island?" Tai asked.
"Yep."
Jesse and James jumped up at the edge of the basket and stood in a pose, the same one they stand when they're about to do...The rhyme.
"Prepare for trouble!"
"Make it double!"
"To protect the world from devastation!"
"To unite all people within our nation!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To extend our reach to the stars above!"
"Jesse!"
"James!"
"Team Rocket, blast off on the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"
"Meowth! That's right!"
"Ash, how many times have you heard that stupid rhyme?" Tai asked as he looked at the trio dumbfoundly.
"I lost count."
"Come Tai! Let me Digivolve! I can take em!" Agumon said.
"No, there's too many people! Lets let Ash deal with it!"
"Yeah, do something, Ash!" Misty said.
"Ash do this! Ash do that! Sheesh, always me!" he mumbled as he pulled out a poke-ball. "I CHOOSE YOU, CHARIZARD!!"
"I'll help! GO GOLBAT, ONIX!"
The three Pokemon emerged from the balls. Charizard and Golbat flew up to the balloon while Onix grabbed the tank to prevent them from escaping, as Brock instructed. The trio fell on their backs from the force of Onix stopping the balloon to go any higher.
"I hope you have a better idea, Meowth!" Jesse shouted.
"Actually, I don't!"
"Terrific. We'll go with plan B." Jesse said releasing Arbok. "Arbok, Poison Sting!"
The cobra Pokemon fired a barrage of poison needles straight at the flyers.
"Charizard, Flamethrower!"
With one full blast, Charizard burned the needles to nothing.
"Golbat, Wing Attack the balloon!" Brock shouted.
The bat Pokemon flew like an arrow, with its wings straight like blades, right at the balloon, slashing a huge hole and letting the air out. With Onix gliding it down, the trio fell out of the basket when the tanks hit the ground.
"Geodude, Tackle attack the lock!"
The rock Pokemon gave one good ram at the lock, cracking it in half. With that, the stolen Pokemon broke free and went to their trainers arms. Cody and Rosa ran to the tank, and picked up their Digimon before anyone sees them move. After Team Rocket got up, they noticed all the trainers staring angrily at them.
"Uh oh! This is bad!" James shouted.
"Not to worry! I got a plan! Just send out your Weezing, James!" Meowth said.
Confused, James did as he said and the gas Pokemon was released from its poke-ball. Now both Arbok and Weezing stood against thirty to forty trainers.
"There's no way you can beat all of us!" Misty shouted.
"That's where you're wrong! Fortunately I had the presents in mind to swipe this!" Meowth said as he held up a yellow D-3.
"MY D-3!" Cody shouted.
"Ha ha! You should watch where you keep your things, kid!" Meowth said as he randomly pressed a few buttons, and then faced the D-3 at the two Pokemon. "Now combine!" But nothing happened. "Huh?"
"What's taking you so long, Meowth?" Jesse shouted.
"The thing isn't working!" Meowth said as he kept pressing the buttons. "Stupid piece of junk! I said combine!.......uh ....Pokemon combine NOW!" Still nothing happened.
"What do he think they are, Digimon?" Mimi asked.
"I always thought they were stupid, but this!" Misty said.
James then smacked his forehead and said: "Now I remember! I think you need two of them!"
"Oh now you tell us!" Jesse shouted.
"I had enough of this! First you try to run me out of business, now you steal my Pokemon and everyone else!" Susie shouted as her Vulpix jumped out of her trainer's arms and in to battle along with Zack's Ninetails.
"You ready, Susie?" Zack asked as she nodded. "Alright, Ninietails, use your Quick Attack!"
The evolved form of Vulpix rammed the Arbok at high speed. But then Jesse command Arbok to do a Bind attack, squeezing the very life out of the nine tailed kitsune.
"Vulpix, blind Arbok with a Confuse Ray!"
Vulpix's eyes glowed and shot a dim white ray at Arbok's eyes, makinh him feel dizzy and realse Ninitails.
"Weezing, Sludge attack!" James shouted.
The gas Pokemon spat a glob of slime, but the fox Pokemon dodged the sludge with great agility and speed.
"Vulpix gotten a lot faster! You did well training her, Brock!" Susie said making Brock blush and Zack a bit angry.
"Ninetails, Flamethrower the Weezing!"
Ninetails fired the common fire attack known to all fire Pokemon, burning the gas type.
"All together now!" Susie shouted.
"FIRE SPIN!"
The two foxes fired a fire tornado, trapping the two poison Pokemon within, along with their trainers and Meowth.
"Alright, Pikachu! You know what to do!" Ash said as his Pokemon jumped from his head and launched a huge Thunder-Bolt at the tornado, causing it to blow, and launch Team Rocket up in the sky while Cody's D-3 fell into his hands.
"Maybe we should've listened to the boss!" James said.
"For once I agree with you!" Jesse said.
"At least we got a few pays in the mail!" Meowth said.
"Wob!"
"LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET IS BLASTING OFF AGAAAAAAAAAIiiiinnnnnn.....!"
"Wobba!"
With that they disappeared into a star with the other stars like they ALWAYS do.
"O.....kay! How did they do that?" Joe asked.
"One of the mysteries of life!" Brock said. But then his face frowned when he noticed Susie and Zack smiling at each other while shaking hands, and their two Pokemon as well. Brock felt a bit queasy, knowing that he lost, and Tai noticed that look and knows it to well.
"Ah man. Poor Brock." he mumbled.
Inside the stage, the contest continued with Kurt's daughter's Pokemon. Susie and Zack was in back congratulating Ash and Brock.
"Hey thanks for saving the Pokemon, guys!" Zack said.
"If it wasn't for you handling Team Rocket, they would've made it off with the Pokemon." Susie said.
"Well, yeah...!" Ash said, rubbing his head.
"You guys were the ones who took care of Team Rocket." Brock said.
"I mean it, Brock." Susie said. "Vulpix improved a lot before I gave her to you. You really did trained her well."
"Thanks....I don't know what to say."
Just then, Zack came up to Susie and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You know, it was really great battling together, Susie. We should work together more often. I was thinking maybe we can open up a Pokemon salon."
"A Pokemon salon?" Susie repeated, making Brock shake in sadness.
"Hey that's a great idea! Susie can work on the inside of Pokemon beauty and Zack can work on the outside. It's a great combination!" Ash said.
"Uh, Ash?" Tai whispered.
"And when it opens, we'll be your first customers." Misty said.
Just then, Tai grabbed them by the shoulders.
"You guys are not helping!" Tai whispered.
"What are you talking about?" Misty asked.
"Look at Brock."
Misty and Ash looked at their friend who had a down face, watching Susie and Zack shake hands. Misty and Ash felt a little bit guilty, feeling that they made things worse.
"Opps! Oh poor Brock...." Misty sighed.
"What do you think Brock?" Ash asked, but Brock sighed at the question.
Susie turned around and walked towards Brock, asking: "Well what do you think Brock?"
Brock quickly snapped his head up and forced a smile.
"I think its a great idea! I mean this is your dream, right?"
"Well I guess. But what about the....?"
"Then go for it! Please!"
Susie started in to Brock's very small eyes before answering.
"Well if you think that.....sure."
"Next up: Brock and Susie! Please enter the stage now."
"Oh that's us! Well we better get up there. Come on, Vulpix!"
The two entered the stage, leaving the group alone. Ash, Misty, and Tai felt sorry for Brock. It would seem he lost the battle of love, just like Tai did. Tai felt flashes of that very Christmas. The DigiDestined shook his head slowly, as he closed his eyes.
"Poor Brock..."
End of part 10..........
