I don't own Pokemon.

Chapter 2: Blending In!

The raven-haired man got up from the ground and ran inside to get to the video phone.

He quickly dialed a number and waited as it rang a few times before someone picked it up.

"Hello?" asked a bright red-headed man as he picked up the phone.

"Lance, it's Ash." said Ash as soon as the video started to show.

"Hey, Ash. How have you been?" asked Lance.

"I've been better. I need your help with something." replied Ash, looking a bit distressed.

"What do you need?" asked Lance, getting down to business.

"Team Rocket kidnapped Misty. I need to go and get her back before they do anything to her. Is there a way that I can find the headquarters and somehow get in there to get her out?" asked Ash.

"That I can help you out with. The Elite Four and the Pokemon G-Men have been tracking their headquarters for a long while to make sure that they won't do something to take over Kanto, but if they took Misty, they must be up to something. I can take you to their headquarters without anyone noticing us, but the best way for you to maneuver through their headquarters would be to blend in. As soon as you see a guard or another member of Team Rocket, you'll have to knock them out and take their clothes to change into or you can try to find the laundry area to steal a pair of clothing. The choice is up to you as soon as you get there." replied Lance, thinking of a plan quickly on how to get him in there.

"Alright. Let's go with your plan. How soon can I meet you to take me to the headquarters?" asked Ash, wanting to get going quickly before anything happened to Misty.

"I can be there in about an hour." replied Lance, causing the chocolate-eyed man to shake his head and then they ended their phone call.

He looked down at Pikachu and sighed a bit.

"Pikachu, why did they have to take her? Why not me? I just hope that she's ok." said Ash, picking up Pikachu and placing it in his lap.

Pikachu looked sad as well and tried to cheer its trainer up, but nothing would cheer him up until he saw the redhead again.

"Pikapi…" said Pikachu before burying its face into his chest.

"I know, Pikachu. I hope I'm not going to be too late." said Ash, giving his yellow mouse a hug.

(With Misty)

She was just waking up when she realized that she was on a metal table and she tried to move but couldn't.

"I see you're finally awake. I guess that chloroform was much strong than I thought I made it." said a man in a white lab coat walking towards her.

"Who are you? Why did Team Rocket kidnap me?" asked Misty, still trying to get out.

"I am Dr. Lazier, my dear. We kidnapped you to help us make the ultimate weapon." replied Dr. Lazier, showing his face as he stepped into the light that was pointed onto the table that Misty was on.

"The ultimate weapon? What do you mean?" asked Misty, trying to process everything.

"Oh, you'll see." said Dr. Lazier, smiling evilly as he picked up a needle.

The redhead saw it and screamed as he got closer to her and stuck the needle into her arm.

Soon, she felt very sleepy and then passed out from whatever was in the syringe.

The doctor smirked before placing the syringe down on a tray and picking up another one and injecting it into her body.

He injected a few more serums into her body before leaving her alone in the room.

"She will be our most valuable experiment to date. Giovanni will be very happy to hear that we've started our experiment." said Dr. Lazier to himself as he looked over at the woman before shutting the door.

(Back With Ash)

He and Lance had just arrived at a secluded area by Team Rocket's headquarters when they went to survey the building.

"They have cameras all over the area down there, but they do have a blind spot, which is right down below. There a small hatch that's a part of the venting system that allows you inside the building without being noticed. Once you are in there, make sure you find the right room and hurry to blend in. You can't be distracted for anything in there as well as making sure that they don't capture you too." said Lance, looking through his binoculars.

"Got it. Get in, don't get noticed, and get Misty out of there. I can do that." said Ash, looking through his binoculars one last time before handing them to Lance.

The raven-headed man got up and started to make his way down the small hill and running to the hatch to quickly get inside.

He opened it and hopped inside before any guards could see him.

"Good luck, Ash." said Lance, watching the man go in the hatch before taking off on his Dragonite.

The chocolate-eyed man slowly crawled through the venting system to be quiet as to not let anyone know that he was there.

Soon, he found himself over the laundry room and waited for a grunt to leave the room before hopping down into the room.

He found a uniform that fit him and took his pokeballs with him before hiding his stuff in the room.

He had Pikachu stay hidden in the venting system so that it wouldn't be suspicious and it followed him as he went through the headquarters, trying to find his secret crush.

Hope you enjoyed Chapter 2! I am really trying on getting the chapters out weekly as I have started to get back into my creative groove. It took me long enough. -_-' I should be able to have the next chapter out next weekend and I'm happy to say that 2018 might be there year where I can get my personal issues taken care of and I can get back to normal. See ya later!
