Glares evilly at the bad review
What's worse, it's one of the stupidest reasons.
Anyways, here's the next chapter.
Chapter 6
Ash and co soon land on the ground, which turned out to be a bunch of sand, easily softening their fall. They all took their heads out of the sand one by one.
"Is everyone okay?" Brock asked, checking on his friends.
"Yeah, I'm good." Ash said.
"I'm okay too." Misty said. Ash just gave a small smile when he heard that.
"I'm fine too." Max said.
They all got up, and looked at the dark tunnel in front of them. The place had plenty of lit torches on both sides of the tunnel, lighting the way. The group started down the tunnel. As they did, they could see that the walls of the tunnel were neatly arranged. They were sure that Team Rocket made the place by them selves.
"I can't believe how this tunnel is made." Max said.
"Bet ya anything that Team Rocket made it." Brock said.
They then saw several pathways in front of them.
"Oh no! Now which way do we go?" Misty asked.
"Hey guys, look!" Max said, pointing in front of them.
The rest of the group looked forward, and saw arrows painted on the floor. They seemed to be arranged to lead someone somewhere.
"I say we follow them." Ash said.
"I don't know. It might be a trap." Brock said.
"Do you have any other idea of how to find Pikachu?"
Brock decided to shrug it off.
Following the arrows painted on the ground, Ash led the way. They turned through several corners, and soon arrived at a bright light. When the light cleared, they saw a room in front of them. The walls were painted brown, with a plain white floor. They looked forward, and saw a battlefield in front of them. However, it seemed to be different from other ones. Instead of one trainer's box on each side, there were two. They were curious as to why it was different. As soon as they entered, they heard someone greet them.
"Prepare for trouble." A familiar female voice said.
"And you'd better make it double." A male voice said.
"Toinfect the worldwith devastation."
"To blighten all peoples in every nation."
"To denounce the goodness of truth and love."
"To extend our wrath to the stars above."
"Cassidy!"
"And Butch!"
"Team Rocket, circling the earth all day and night."
"Surrender to us now, or you will surely lose the fight."
A giant rat pokemon appeared in front of the two and shouted, "Raticate!"
"It's Cassidy!" Misty says, angrily.
"And Botch!" Brock says.
Butch facefaluts. "The name's Butch! Can't you people ever get it right?"
"Actually, we choose to get it wrong on purpose." Max said.
Butch starts to get really angry. "That's it! You're all going to pay for that!"
"Calm down, Butch! We promised the boss that we would take care of them." The blonde reminded him.
"Step aside! We have to save Pikachu!" Ash demanded.
"You're gonna have to battle us first! Here are the rules. We'll battle with six pokemon each, it will be a double trainer battle. You can only send out one pokemon at a time. Also, when one of the player's pokemon are all knocked out, their teammate loses with them as well."
"What?" Ash asked in shock.
"But that's completely unfair!" Max said.
"You're on our turf now, so you have to play by our rules." Cassidy said.
"Besides, there's only one way out, and were blocking it." Butch said, pointing to a door behind him.
"So, who will be your team?"
"I'll battle you!" Ash said with determination and anger.
"Wait Ash!" Misty said.
"What is it?"
"Without Pikachu, you don't have enough pokemon, remember?"
Ash growls and gives a defeated sigh. "You're right, Misty."
"Well, who's it gonna be?" Cassidy asked, growing impatient.
Misty steps up to one of the trainer boxes. "I'll battle you!" She said.
"...And your partner?"
Max then walks up to the trainer box. "I'll battle you as well!" He said.
"Very well then." Cassidy said.
"Are you sure you've got enough gym leader experience to handle this, Max?" Misty asked, whispering.
"Don't worry, my dark pokemon will be able to handle it." Max whispered.
"Okay," Butch said as he held a pokeball. "Let the battle begin."
