May looked at the crowd of students, all of which were sitting and waiting anxiously. The front row was the teachers, a few of which were talking. She glared at Miss Yoshi, who was still checking out the smiling young man. It was really annoying her, that that teacher was looking at her husband with such a look of desire. 'She's got some nerve! Especially since Ash told her that we are married!' she thought angrily, biting her lip.
She looked at Ash, who, luckily, wasn't paying an ounce of attention to Miss Yoshi. He was more occupied with watching the children that were twittering away. Ash gave her a little smile, before going back to watching the kids. May knew he would *never* betray her, but it didn't stop her from not liking the way he was getting looked at.
"As I know you are getting anxious, so I now introduce...Ash Ketchum! He will be talking to you all today about what it takes to be a master!" the principle announced. Ash pushed himself up to standing, and walked over to the podium, smiling in embarrassment.
Ash did a quick scan over everyone. Almost every child had admiring looks, eyes wide and waiting. He looked at May, who was still glaring at Miss Yoshi. Sighing, he began talking.
The principle interrupted about an hour later. "Do any of you have any questions?" he asked.
About half the student body raised their hands. Ash went pale, staring around at all the different children. He pointed out one of the older students, around 14 or 15. She cleared her throat, before asking, "Why are you so hot?"
The teachers turned and looked to see who had asked. Ash felt himself blush. "Well...ah, I don't control that-"
Suddenly, a loud explosion went off, as smoke and dust filled the room. Most of the smaller children where screaming, the teens trying to not breath in any of the mess. Ash, coughing, managed to find his way over to Amber (who automatically started clinging to him) and May. She had sometime during the speech taken his jacket out, and pulled it on. Now, she was using the sleeve to cover her mouth and nose.
"Are you alright!" he asked, trying unsuccessfully to not inhale any of the dust. He choked on it, stopping only when May hit him on the back to help. Ash kept a tight hold on her, as the air cleared.
Now all of the students where screaming, and the adults where staring around in shock. The roof and ceiling had a giant hole in it, and along the rim stood two people, one man and one woman.
They were dressed in outfits very much like Team Rockets, except they were blue and white, and both of them had bandanas around their heads. Ash stared up at them, before shaking off the shock. "Who are you?!" he demanded.
"We are of Team Aqua!" they both said, smiling.
"I am Mauve," the woman said. She had long violet hair, her eyes a dark purple that matched.
"And I am Vincent," the man said. He had greenish hair, and blue eyes. He looked at Mauve, before looking back at Ash, who was frowning.
"You are not going to get any of our Pokemon!" Ash said. The two started laughing, using each other for support. Ash looked at them in puzzlement, confused as to why they would laugh at that.
"We are not here for pokemon, kid!" Vincent sneered. Mauve smiled nastily.
"We are here for you!" she said. Ash looked up at them, confused to no end. Team Rocket and Team Magma had only tried to get his pokemon before, but Team Aqua wanted *him*?
Mauve and Vincent both jumped down from the roof, and landed perfectly in front of Ash and May. She tightened her grip on Ash's shirt, bewildered at hearing such a thing. The first thing on her mind, was why they would want him, and why go to so much trouble?
Her blood heated to nearly boiling point, when she noticed Mauve doing exactly as Miss Yoshi had been doing-she was checking him out! May was getting really ticked that other women where looking at HER husband, even though she would be standing next to him.
"We know a lot about you, Ash Ketchum." Vincent said, "You will make a good addition to Team Aqua!"
"Why do you want *me*?" Ash asked. Vincent tapped his foot impatiently.
"Because you, punk, have personal connections with nearly every legendary pokemon in the world! Don't try to cover it up, because we also know that you are the legendary Chosen One as well!" he said. Everyone in the room had gone quiet, as Vincent's voice rang through the room. They were all surprised and shocked at what they had heard.
"With you on our side, we would fulfil our goal in raising the water level in the world! We could cover the entire Earth in water, making it more hospitable for water pokemon!" Mauve added on. By then, both Ash and May thought they were mental.
"No way would I ever join Team Aqua. I didn't agree to join Team Rocket or Magma, and I sure as heck ain't going to join Aqua!"
Mauve gave him a seductive look, fluttering her eyes gently. "Aww, come on, baby. It would be great to be on Team Aqua..."
She smirked at May, who was glaring heatedly at her, and added, "Besides, I can treat you like a WOMAN is supposed to treat her man...not like a LITTLE GIRL does..."
Ash was attempting to hide behind her, blushing from what Mauve had said. He jumped back, when the anger that had been bottling up all that day finally exploded out. "ALRIGHT, THAT'S IT! STAY AWAY FROM MY HUSBAND, YOU AQUA WITCH!" yelled the very annoyed May.
Mauve and Vincent laughed harshly. "Stay out of this, wench!" Vincent said.
"That's a bit too strong a word, 'wench,' I'd think." Mauve commented, "I doubt she's done it even once."
"Whatever...would you get out of the way? None of this concerns you!" snapped Vincent, who turned back to May, "Don't make us hurt you!"
Ash, finally, interrupted. He protectively held May close, glaring at Team Aqua. "No one threatens MY wife and gets away with it!"
All six of his pokemon came out, each one with angry. May let her pokemon out, which had the same angry look. Amber, Ryudo, and Millenia jumped out, willing to fight for their 'parents.' Vincent smiled. "A fight? Right then. Let's get this thing started!"
May looked at the crowd of students, all of which were sitting and waiting anxiously. The front row was the teachers, a few of which were talking. She glared at Miss Yoshi, who was still checking out the smiling young man. It was really annoying her, that that teacher was looking at her husband with such a look of desire. 'She's got some nerve!
