Chapter 4- The trouble starts.

The rain was coming down hard, a girl with long wavy pink hair ran for cover. As she ran past a park she noticed a figure sitting a bench getting wetting and wetting with every second, she also saw an old looking animal watching him from a tree. She stopped and decided to go ask him what was wrong and to see if he could help her out as she was lost. Walking slowly over to him she started to think it was a bad idea, as the young that she could now see clearly looked a little mad.

"Hi, I was hoping you could help you see I'm lost and not really sure where I am," said the pink haired girl.

"Sorry I can't help you," answered Ash in gloomily voice "I don't really know then city my self, I could always take you to hospital".

"I'm not ill you know" said the girl in angry tone, then she looked up to see the small mouse like thing giving her a angry look and sparks coming from it's cheeks so she backed down.

"I didn't mean that, I know where the hospital is and my friends that are there can help you find out where you are," He answered in an emotionless voice

"Well if we stay out here much longer we may both end up with a cold or worse, err if your friends are at the hospital then why are you here"

"I was thinking about something, plus there is this other boy I'm tiring to avoid" he whilst getting to his feet "Come up Pikachu lets get back"

"O.k.! Hum what's a Pikachu, don't matter, I'm Mariah by the way," she said offering her hand.

"I'm Ash," he answered while shacking her hand.

High up on cliff kai stood looking out on the sea he was thinking about what someone had said to him before he and the other bladders had ran into their new friends. The rain was starting to stop which was good for kai as he was socked and far away from any shelter, it was in the clearing of the clouds and the beams of sun light that made an odd looking submarine come into his sight, so he set off to see what it doing.

At the centre of town the group that was at the hospital had chosen to split up in order to find a wheel chair, Ray, Kenny and Hillary were going to wait at the side of a big water fountain in the centre of the market. The shopping market was a Marble colour (a peachy colour), all the buildings looked like they were glowing.

"So which way are we going Brock" Misty asked putting her hand in front of her face as the sun was so bright.

"I say we go that way" May said pointing down a path.

"Hay look" Max (b) shouted, "It looks like one of the shops is on fire."

"Looks like were going your way May" Tyson said

So Tyson, Max, Brock, May and Misty ran off down the street to see if they could help leaving the others to just sit there and wait.

The sun dim with was no rain anymore but black smoke was filling the air. As Ash and Mariah ran towards it as it looked like it was coming from the hospital. As they sped down the road they saw a Meowth shaped balloon high in the air starting to come down. As the two ran they could now see that the smoke was indeed coming from the hospital. The thoughts of all his friends burning to death inside the burning came flooding into his mind Misty, Brock, May, Max even Tyson. Mariah saw the look on his face it was like he had just being stabbed in the back, it sort of looked like he wasn't breathing.

"Are you ok Ash" Mariah said softy

"No this was where my friends were staying," he said while coming to a stop at a police line, he then ran over to a police officer, he was completely out of breath and could hard speak. "Excuse sir… could you tell if… anyone here has…. being seriously… hurt" he said while huffing and puffing.

"It's sad to say but everyone that was here has had to be taken to the closest hospital away young man, it's the next town about 70 miles west if your looking for someone then that's your best bet. After the police officer had done he walked away.

Pikachu looked up at Ash as it looked as though he was slowly dying just then he fell to his knees and began to cry. Mariah and Pikachu didn't know what to do they looked at him sobbing his heart out like he had nothing else to live for, just then 2 tall figures walked up to them. Mariah had no clue who they were, one was a woman with very long red hair, and she was wearing a white belly top with a big red R on it and a white mini skirt. The other was a man with purple blue hair wearing a white jumper with the same big red R on it and a matching pair of white trousers.

"Get up twerp" said the women while walking over to him.

"Huh?" Ash said as he looked up to see who it "What the ... Team Rocket"

Mariah now total confused "Ash you know these people, are they your friends?"

Ash with a look of thinking on his face said " Well it depends what they are doing, if their trying to take Pikachu then no" He was then interrupted By James

"Listen kid just because we did bad things don't mean we don't want to turn over a new leaf"

"That's right" answered Jessie "We have just gone though a hard as well"

"What do you mean" Ash asked with a blank look on his

James now almost in tears "It's it's ... IT'S MEWOETH HE'S GONE" At that moment James burst into tears so he covered his face and turned away from the others.

"What do mean gone" Ash asked Pikachu started to back away from Ash at that moment wondering have dense the person he and other pokemon friends took orders from really was.

"Who's Meowth?" Asked Mariah.

"Tell you what kids lets go somewhere quilter and we will tell you everything" Jessie said then turned round to James grabbed him by the back of his top and started to pull him down the road.

Back at the centre of town it had gone all quiet as most of the people had gone to see what the smoke was about. Ray, Hillary, Kenny and Max were sat on a table out side a small café, Hillary and Max had gone to buy them some drinks, Ray was sat at a table and Kenny had gone for a little walk.

In a place called bargain lane which as this time was almost empty apart from Kenny and a red hooded figure. The lane was dark and basically deserted. Just then a shop keeper heard screaming and came running out the only thing he saw was a man and a black dog running down the road, the shop keeper just thought that the dog was chasing the man, so the man went back in to the shop thinking nothing of it.

I think this is the longer chapter I have written for any fic, well for what the 2, 3 people that have R&R thank you and that was chapter 4. Plezz do R&R even to tell me its bad (or good).
