Chapter 10: Mega-Mega Meowth Madness
"Now that the Lumiose City Gym is out of the question for now, what should we do now?" Serena asks.
"Of course, we should go to the Cyllage City for my next Gym badge." Ash says as they continue to walk. But just as they notice the lab, Serena says, "I have a proposal, since we are here in Lumiose City, why don't we go visit Professor Sycamore at the Pokémon Lab?"
Ash says, "Oh yeah, I forgot that you want to greet Professor Sycamore to thank him for giving you the Fennekin."
"That is a great idea." Clemont says. "It sure has been a while since we saw him."
Ash says, "Well, I guess this will be quite useful." He takes out a box and says, "I made some Macaroons."
Bonnie says, "Wow, they look tasty."
Trenor says, "So that is why you woke up early and borrowed the kitchen?" Luke asks.
"Yeah." Ash says. "Well, Serena did help me as well, I couldn't make all of them at once."
Serena says, "And why shouldn't I help my boyfriend with something I am also interested in?"
"I think we should stop with the flirting and just go." Trenor says as they both him and Bonnie drag the two away before something is going to happen in the end.
In the Lab, they greet Professor Sycamore and Sophie. Serena, Trenor and Luke introduce themselves to him as he says, "So you are traveling together, that is great news."
"Yeah. and thank you for giving me this Fennekin." Serena says as Fennekin barks happily.
"No problem." Sycamore says. "I can tell she also likes you a lot. You really did a good job raising her."
Fennekin then yelps and jumps into Serena's arms, Ash also takes out the macaroon box and says, "Hey, Professor, I made some Macaroons."
Sycamore smells at the pastry and he says, "They smell great. As much as I want to enjoy them, I have some work to do at the greenhouse, so I'll be back for it later."
Sophie comes up from her seat and says, "Then I'll prepare the tea so that it will be nice to add the flavor."
As the tea is finished, one of Ash's Pokeballs open as Chespin comes out, then it sees the Macaroons and starts munching on them.
"Hey, wait, Chespin, those macaroons are for Professor Sycamore, don't just eat it without our permission." But Chespin is ignoring Ash's words and Ash can only sigh.
"Chespin sure is hungry with those macaroons." Trenor sweat drops.
Bonnie shrugs and says, "Can't blame him, he is such a heavy eater. Maybe that is the reason why he left his former trainer like Fennekin and Froakie."
"Not to mention, besides Samurott, there is also another Pokemon that will come out on his own..." Ash says as the second Pokeball opens as Samurott comes out.
"Did you call me?" Samurott asks Ash, much to the amusement of everyone. Ash is now anime falling down to the floor and he says, "Samurott, it seems like you have another buddy that can come out of the Pokeball on your own."
He points at Chespin and Samurott just says, "Really? I admit that he is acting like me... Are those Macaroons?"
Ash knows that if Samurott is going for Macaroons, it is going to be a disaster, so he quickly recalls him before it can get to it. As for Serena, she grabs the basket and says, "Chespin, leave the rest to everyone, okay?"
Chespin tries to jump and grabs the basket, but Serena just reach higher and Chespin eventually gives up getting the Macaroons.
"Thanks Serena. I was worried if the macaroons are going to be gone before Professor Sycamore can even taste them."
"No problem. We made hard for these, I think it will be better if I go give these to him in person."
Bonnie says, "I want to go as well, can I? Can I?"
"Sure." Serena says as the two girls walk off to the greenhouse.
While professor Sycamore is checking on the Pokémon, a truck crashes into the building and the Team Rocket trio come out of it.
"Who are you guys and what do you want?" Professor Sycamore demands.
"We want the head person in charge of the Mega Evolution Research." Meowth says, causing the Professor to be shocked. "Is that a talking Meowth?"
"And the head person is you." James says. He then throws a cube which expands to a restraint that goes around the Professor. James and Meowth then grab the Professor and throw him to the back of the truck.
As they are about to drive away, Serena and Bonnie arrive.
"Team Rocket?" Serena says.
"Not them again." Bonnie says as they open the back of the truck to find the Professor tied up.
"Serena, Bonnie..." Professor Sycamore says.
"We will save you." Serena says. But then the door closes as Bonnie yells, "Hey! Open the door!"
But then they are driven off as Sycamore asks, "Just who are those people?"
Serena says, "They are Team Rocket."
"Team Rocket? What does Giovanni want with me?" Sycamore asks.
Bonnie says, "Nothing, they are a bunch of losers who uses the name of Team Rocket to do bad stuff, Giovanni couldn't take care of those guys, so he asks us to help him out. But they never learn every time we try to teach them a lesson."
"But now we are the ones need to be rescued. "Serena says.
"Now what do we do?" Bonnie says afraid.
Serena sees the basket on her hand and says, "I have a plan."
"What is taking them to long?" Ash asks.
"No clue." The boys decide to check out, only to find the warehouse broken.
"What is going on here?" Clemont says in shock.
Trenor asks a Bidoof, "What happened here?"
"Some guys and a Meowth drive the van into this place, and they kidnap Professor Sycamore." Bidoof says.
Ash says, "Team Rocket. They better not do anything to Serena..."
Everyone is surprised to see Ash fire up, then Chespin notice Macaroons on the ground.
"Macaroons?" Luke says. "Maybe Serena left them so we could find them."
"Let's follow the path." Trenor says.
"I'll call Officer Jenny." Sophie says as she leaves.
As Team Rocket arrive at an abandoned storehouse, they open the back of the van and they get quite a surprise.
"Twerpettes?!" They say.
"Nice to see you again." Bonnie smirks.
"Too bad we will be leaving with Professor." Serena says.
"No you won't." Jessie says as she and James rush in overpowering the two girls and tying them up along with the Professor.
After tying up, Bonnie says, "Dedenne! Use Thundershock!" But she finds that Dedenne has fallen asleep in her bag.
"Hand over the data of the Mega Evolution Research, or else..." Meowth says as he takes out a piece of glass and sharpen his claws.
He starts to scratch the glass as it creates a great sound that causes them pain.
"Alright, alright the SD card is in my coat pocket." James reaches in the pocket and found a blue card.
"Alright Meowth if you please?" Meowth then walks over, takes the card, and plugs it into a computer.
Meanwhile Ash and the others follows the path to the Storehouse. There the entrance inside is opened. And reveal their friends all tied up.
"We have to get in there." Ash says.
"I know but we need a plan first." Trenor says.
"Any ideas?" Clemont asks.
"We will save our friends first then we attack Team Rocket." Luke says.
They then sneak inside and wait, but Chespin has other ideas. He smells the Macaroons close to the computer. He tries to reach the table but winds up tripping over a couple of wires and exposes himself.
"Chespin?" The three exclaim as Chespin rubs his head.
"That guy..." Ash face palms.
"We should go now." Trenor says as he uses Earth Power to get the Team Rocket's attention.
"It seems like the twerps is here to hand himself." Jessie says.
"Team Rocket, I should have known it was you..." Luke says.
As they are saying their annoying motto, Ash quickly rushes to Serena and says, "Serena, are you alright? I'll save you."
He uses Psychic to break the ropes that are biding them. After the motto is finished, they notice them freed.
"Hey! Stop ignore us!" Meowth yells.
"Now let's run!" Trenor says as they try to run, but the computer Meowth is on starts beeping.
"Hey guys upload is all done." Meowth says they then ran to a cover up of a big mech.
"Now it is time to show you our greatest machine, with the data of Mega Evolution, it can exceed the mega evolution!" Jessie says.
"We called it Mega-Mecha Meowth!" James says.
As the Meowth like Machine appears, Sycamore says, "Wow, that is a marvelous machine."
"Even though they are enemies, they are really good at inventing." Clemont says.
"This isn't time for admiring!" Serena yells as they head outside. Ash says, "Pikachu! Thunderbolt! Chespin! Pin Missile!"
The two Pokemon fire their attack, but the machine isn't damaged. "What?" Ash says in shock.
"Surprised? With the power of Mega Evolution, you can't stop us!" James says.
"Now we will get them!" Meowth presses a button as Pikachu, Eevee and Chespin are captured in the net.
"Pikachu! Eevee! Chespin!" Ash yells as they yells back.
Trenor says, "Brother, we'll fight fire with fire. Use one of your Megas."
"Okay. Blaziken! I choose you!" Ash says as he sends out the Pokemon. "Blaziken! let's unite our bonds as one. Mega Evolve!" Ash says as he presses the key stone on his glove, Blazilen also changes its form.
"We will be capturing this Pokemon, too." Meowth says as he tries to use the net, but Blaziken slashes through it easily.
"Flamethrower!" Ash yells as it hits the machine, causing the net to break off as the three Pokemon land on the ground safely.
"No way...only one hit..." James says.
"Now time to end this up. Pikachu, Thunderbolt, Chespin, Razor Leaf, Blaziken! Flamethower, Eevee, Swift!" Ash says.
Four Pokemon fire their attacks and it destroys the mecha.
"We are blasting off again!" They yell as they fly away from their sight.
Sycamore says, "Marvelous, you have a Mega Blaziken, too."
Ash says, "Yeah." Then Blaziken returns back to normal.
Back in the lab, Serena says, "I am sorry that your lab is destroyed..."
"It is fine, we can fix it. I should thank you for saving me." Sycamore says.
Just then, a man arrives at the Lab. "Hello there, Professor. I hope I didn't interrupt something."
Professor Sycamore says, "Not at all. Everyone, this is Lysandre, he is the one who makes the Holo Caster."
Lysandre says, " Nice to meet you too. I've tried to learn as much about Pokémon as I can to help build a brighter future."
After the introduction, Lysandre says, "Ash Ketchum, I have heard a lot about you. It is an honor to meet you." He takes out a Holo Caster and gives it to Ash.
"You are giving me this?" Ash asks.
"Yes. Consider this a gift from me. Knowledge is power, after all. Put it to good use. Now listen! It is vital that this world become a better place. And the people and Pokémon chosen to make the world better must work tirelessly to achieve this goal."
He looks around the place and asks, "What happened here? It seems like the place is destroyed."
Sycamore says, "Well, some people try to kidnap me, but thanks to them they they failed."
"I see, it is a good thing that everything goes well in the end." Lysandre looks at his watch and says, "Well, I'll be off, maybe we should talk in another time."
"Sure." Sycamore says as Lysandre walks to the door, and he mutters, "My desire…it is for a more beautiful world!"
After he leaves, Ash says, "What a weird guy."
"Yeah." Luke says as they just stare at the doorway.
Here is a new chapter, and this is the Episode 10 of the XY series. The next chapters will be the original chapters about how Ash capture every one of the Pokemon. Due to the amount of Pokemon Ash has, it is going to be split in a lot of parts. I hope you understand.
