***Here comes chapter 44(the gang finally makes it to Olvine!) the next gym battle with Chuck will be chaper 45***

~Sweet Sweet Olivine!~

"Pichu!" the small mouse pokemon sat on Dustin's right should and chirped as the gang entered the port city of Johto; Olivine.

"This place is huge," Jen was admiring the size of the city, "Look there's the port!" she pointed to a large boat dock.

"We need to get the center first," Shane annouced, "And heal up."

"Then to the gym!" Dustin shouted, "Let's go!" He ran into the city as his two friends followed, Pichu chirping with joy.

Outside the the Olivine City Gym, a very unique building a young girl with light brown hair is battling a member of Team Rocket.

"Magnemite use Sonic Boom!" the girl commanded.

Magnemite shook and sent an ultrasonic wave, blowing the Ekans back some and knocking it out.

"Now tell me who you are!" the winner annouced.

"Listen Jasmine," the Rocket laughed, "Just because your the leader doesn't mean your the hero!"

"Tell me why your tried to steal my pokemon! And the lighthouse pokemon!" the girl; Jasmine asked the male Rocket.

"I don't have time for this!" he shouted and withdrew his snake pokemon, "Let's just say you haven't seen the last of Team Rocket," he threw a gray smoke ball to the ground and disappeared.

"Magnemite good job," Jasmine withdrew it, "Now to go help that poor Amphy!" the leader ran into the city.

"Here you go," Nurse Joy gave Dustin and the gang their pokemon in the balls on a tray, "Their all ready."

"Thanks," Dustin said as he took the tray and brought it to the table where the gang was sitting, Dustin distributed the pokeballs to their owners and sat down.

"This place is packed," Shane pointed out, the center they were in was full of people; tourist and trainers.

"Why is it so busy?" Jen asked.

"Probably taking ships to Cianwood," Shane answered, "It's the right time for tourist, a perfect get-away."

"So where's the gym?" Dustin asked, "I can't to battle Jasmine."

"Not fare from here," Shane replied, "We can make it there in a couple of minutes."

"Then let's go!" Dustin got up and ran outside as Shane and Jen followed.

The gang made it the Olivine Gym, as they stood outside of it Dustin was smiling.

"I can't wait," Dustin walked to the door and tried to open it; a failure though. "Huh?" he was confused.

"What's wrong?" Jen asked as she and Shane walked to the door.

"It's stuck," Dustin replied as he tried to open it agian; a failure once more.

"The gym is closed," the brown haired girl standing behind Dustin and the gang informed them. "Sorry."

"How do you know?" Shane questioned.

"My name is Jasmine," she smiled, "The Olivine City Leader."

"O!" Dustin responded, "Can we have our battle real fast?"

"Afraid not," Jasmine said, "A bunch of thieves tried to steal the pokemon of the Lighthouse...it was injured and now I'm trying to help recover it, but the centers are full."

"So why can't we have our battle?" Dustin asked as Jen and Shane fell over anime-style. "I mean let's just fight."

"Sorry I can't," she said, "Not now atleast."

"Then what do I do until then?" Dustin asked.

"I don't know," Jasmine smiled, "Try coming back later."

Back at the same center the gang sat at the same table, reading the map and drinking some water.

"Where to go," Dustin sighed, "We can't stay here and wait on Jasmine to heal her friends and all."

"We could go to Cianwood," Shane pointed on the map.

"All there is is tourist," Dustin replied, "Right?"

"There's a gym there," Jen corrected Dustin, "The Master of Cianwood is Chuck, a fighting type trainer."

"There's a gym!" Dustin jumped up, "Let's go!"

"It'll be a lot of fun!" Jen added.

"But how will we get there?" Shane asked, "We're totally broke..."

"We could..." Dustin sighed, "I have no idea...but there's gotta be a way to get some cash for a boat."

"Did you say boat?" a slender, tall girl asked.

"Yeah," Shane answered her, "Why?"

"Me and my friend run a service," the girl replied; she was dressed in light blue pants and a flower shirt, her pony tailed brown hair was pulled back.

"How much do you run for?" Shane said, "We've got no money..."

"We run free tours," she replied. "We're leaving to Cianwood soon, we'd love it for you guys to come."

"Ok!" Dustin replied with a smile.

The gang walked to the port, the nice girl who ran a boat service stood in front of a nice built and good size ferrie.

"My name is -Kiki," she informed them.

"Oh yeah, I'm Dustin."

"Shane."

"Jen."

"Nice to met you," Kiki smiled, "Now let's just get one the ferry and we'll leave, my friend, Rick should be on the boat."

"Ok," Jen smiled as she and Kiki hoped on the boat.

"What a good luck turn out," Shane said as he hoped on the boat.

Dustin went to get on when a man dressed in Rocket clothing stoped him.

"Huh?" Dustin turned around. "A Rocket?!"

"You must be Dustin," the rocket smirked, "We've got a bone to pick with you!" he enlarged a pokeball, "Go Muk!" he sent out the oozy creature as they engaged in a port battle.

"Dustin!" Jen shouted, "Kiki could we wait."

"Oh course," Kiki smiled and then thought to herself, 'Our plan is going perfect,' she evily grinned, 'Clyde should be coming soon.'

"Let's go Pichu!" Dustin threw the fast ball and unleashed his newly hatched pokemon. "Yeah!" Dustin smiled as Pichu's cheecks sparked.

"Muk use Slude Bomb!" the rocket annouced, his hair was green and he was stern in the face as he commanded his Muk.

"Dodge and use Spark!" Dustin directed his new pokemon, it's first battle ever.

"Chu!" Pichu moved out of the way as Muk slunge a slick and nasty purple gel at it, Pichu jumped in the air and smashed it's head into Muk's body, static shocking Muk some.

"Muk use a Posion Gas!"

"Thunder Shock!" Dustin replied.

Muk opened it's mouth and sent a purple gas into the air. Pichu jumped back some and sent a blue lightning bolt into the air, mixing with the gas and causing an explosion.

'He's doing perfect,' the girl called Kiki thought in her head silently. "Will your friend be ok?" Kiki asked the group as a lie.

"Yeah," Jen nodded, "We've took plenty of stupid Team Rocket members."

"Acid Armor!" the Rocket shouted.

"Muk!" Muk's body disolved into a clear like form.

"Don't get confused!" Dustin told Pichu, "Look strait and use Thunder Bolt!"

"Chu!" Pichu got on all four and put it's tail in the air, drawing some eletricity, "Chu!" it's body unleashed a bright yellow bolt; knocking Muk out.

"Ha!" the Rocket laughed and withdrew Muk, "Fool!" he ran off.

"That was strange," Dustin replied. "Good job Pichu."

"Chu!" Pichu smiled and ran to Dustin, his trainer bent down and put out his right hand, Pichu climbed to his shoulder as Dustin got up and took step on the boat.

"Ready?" a man poped out from the cabin of the boat, he wore a hat to cover his hair and was dressed in white shorts and a red shirt.

"This is my friend," Kiki smiled, "Is everyone ready?"

"Yep," Dustin smiled as Pichu laughed some.

"Then we're off," Kiki said as he friend walked into the captain's area and started the boat.

"This will be so fun," Jen said as the boat left the harbor.

'It sure will be,' Kiki thought to herself as the boat skimed on the ocean on it's way to Cianwood.
