Hectic Hospital Heroics
Jessie and James walked through the hospital doors. They were dressed in large dark trench coats, wearing large detective hats and shades. In James' arms he carried Ash.
As soon as James had gotten back to the tent, the group had gotten into the balloon and headed for the nearest hospital. Upon his arrival at the tent James had determined that Ash needed better medical care than anything they could provide. They had left everything back at the camp and taken off straight for the hospital.
The gang approached the reception desk.
"Excuse me mam, but we have a person in dire need of care," said James.
"I'm sorry but you'll have to wait until we can get another patient in," replied the receptionist.
"I don't think you heard us. I said that we have an urgent case here."
"I told you that you'll have to wait until we can get you in," said the receptionist angrily.
"In that case…" said Jessie
James set Ash down on one of the waiting room chairs as Jessie whipped off her coat and hat.
"To protect the world from devastation."
James followed suit whipping off his coat and hat.
"To unite all peoples within our nation."
"To denounce the evils of truth and love."
"To extend our reach to the stars above."
"Jessie."
"James."
"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light."
"Fighting paperwork to save another's life."
"Now will you let us in or do we have to get rough with you?" stated Jessie.
"That's it, I'm calling security," said the receptionist reaching for the phone.
"Lickitung get the phone," shouted Jessie as she cast a pokéball to the ground.
Lickitung's tongue shout out and wrapped around the phone. The receptionist's hand shot back in disgust of the creature's vile tongue. Lickitung pulled the phone into its' mouth and began chewing on it. Lickitung spit out the phone in disgust.
"Sorry, but we're not taking calls today," James retorted.
"Now will you let us in?" asked Meowth hopping up onto the desk.
Jessie and James whipped out some hospital scrubs and masks. They put them on with lightning speed.
"Here put this on," said James as he handed Jessie the hat that he taken from the PokéCenter.
"There is no way that I am putting this on."
"Oh come on Jess we need to make this convincing."
"No way."
James and Jessie walked down the hallway, James dressed as a doctor and Jessie wearing a nurse uniform, along with the hat that James had stolen. James carried Ash in his arms as they searched for a stretcher.
"I feel stupid in this thing," whined Jessie
"Aw, come on Jess you look good in it," replied James.
Meowth couldn't restrain his laughter as he looked at Jessie.
"Stop that laughing!" said Jessie furiously.
With the blinding speed Jessie smacked Meowth on the head.
"Ow! What did you do that for?" cried Meowth.
"Just keep your mouth shut," said Jessie in a threatening manner.
The group casually walked down the hallway trying to remain inconspicuous. They walked past a guard on his morning rounds.
"Good morning doctor."
"Good morning," replied James.
"Are you new here?" asked the guard.
"Um…"
"We're medical students from the college," replied Jessie.
"Oh. Is that a patient you're carrying?" asked the guard.
"Um, yeah we're taking him back to his room. He seems to have wandered off and just collapsed in the waiting room."
Blood began to run from Ash's mouth as he coughed violently.
"It looks like he's in pretty rough shape maybe I should call for one of the doctors," commented the guard.
"That won't be necessary," replied Jessie.
"Well I'm no expert, but I really think he should see one of the doctors right away," said the guard as he reached for his walkie-talkie.
"Would you look at that. Looks like I forgot to turn it on" chuckled the guard as he flipped the switch.
"All units there are two intruders. A man and woman carrying a young boy."
"Wait a minute there! Let me see your id tags."
"We lost them," replied James.
"Set down the boy" the guard said forcefully as he pulled out his nightstick.
"Well if that's the way it has to be then…" said Jessie as she pulled out a pokéball.
"Prepare for trouble there's a patient in need."
"And make it double for double the speed."
"To protect the world from devastation."
"To unite all peoples within our nation."
"To denounce the evils of truth and love."
"To extend our reach to the stars above."
"Jessie."
"James."
"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light."
"Arbok use wrap," commanded Jessie.
The snake quickly wrapped around the guard. The guard squirmed trying to break free, but the snake coiled tighter. The guard groaned with pain and dropped his nightstick.
"Time to go. Arbok return."
The large snake pokémon uncoiled from around the guard, and disappeared back into its' ball. The guard collapsed to the ground.
"Well we have to run," said James as he, Jessie, and Meowth took off down the hall.
"Stop!" called the guard as he struggled to get up.
James, Jessie, and Meowth took off down the hall. They turned the corner and continued to run down the hall.
"Stop there!" came a voice.
Another guard and one of the medical staff were blocking the path in front of them.
"You won't get away," said the guard as he pulled out a pokéball.
"Machamp stop them," said the guard.
A large muscular fighting pokémon appeared in front of the group.
"How are we going to get past that?" asked James nervously.
"Call out Wheezing," said Meowth.
"Good idea" James replied.
James dug in his pocket while trying to hold onto Ash.
"Let me," said Jessie as she stuck her hand into his pocket and pulled out the pokéball.
She held out the ball as James said "Wheezing smokescreen".
The dark murky pokémon appeared before them. A dark fog poured out of the pores on the pokémon's body. The guard and the medical staff person coughed as they tried to find their way through the dark cloud.
"I think they went that way," the medical staff person said.
They found their way out of the noxious fumes of the dark cloud to see James and Jessie running down the hall.
"After them Machamp," said the guard.
The large pokémon ran after the fleeing delinquents quickly gaining on them.
"James you have to set down the twerp. He's slowing us down" said Jessie.
"But..."
"We got him here so let these inept fools take care of the rest."
James was still hesitant.
"They're almost upon us," said Meowth.
Reluctantly James set Ash down with his back propped up against the wall.
"Good luck twerp," James said dismally.
He ran to catch up with Jessie and Meowth. Just when the group thought that they might get away an ominous site appeared before them.
"Hypno hypnosis," called a voice.
"Look away," shouted James, but he was too late, Jessie and Meowth dropped sleepily to the ground.
"Jessie! Meowth!" called James.
"Got ya," came a voice from behind as the Machamp's muscular arms wrapped tightly around James.
"Let me go you big buffoon," yelled James as he squirmed trying to break free of Machamp's grasp.
"Grab the other two," the guard said to some other medical staff members.
"Jessie get up," yelled James.
"Keep quiet," commanded the guard.
The other two staff members ran over to the sleeping forms of Jessie and Meowth and put handcuffs on them.
"Now we'll wait for the police," said the guard.
In all of the confusion the guards had totally forgotten about Ash. He remained where James had left him, but he had fallen over onto his side.
