Chapter 4: What's Wrong With Me?!

When Ash woke up the next morning, he found himself really sore and he figured that it was from yesterday's travels.

He didn't remember anything from last night when he was in Team Rocket's Headquarters.

He took a pain pill from a bottle in his backpack that he kept in case he was hurt after doing something.

He made sure that the others didn't notice and got up to find that every part of him was sore.

"Must've been a really hard day yesterday without me remembering it." thought Ash as he got dressed before heading to go eat with the others.

(Two Weeks Later)

The raven-haired teen had no idea what was happening to him or his body.

He had gained at least 15 pounds and was constantly sore with stomach cramps and nausea to the point that he was vomiting.

He tried to keep the symptoms secret from the others, but one day, he just couldn't keep it from them.

Ash had eaten a lot of food, which had become the new normal, and had gotten a stomachache from eating a little too much.

He held his stomach before feeling the food churn inside of him and he tried to hide in the bushes, but he didn't make it in time.

He braced himself and threw up right on the ground while still holding his aching stomach.

The others heard something from behind them and saw their friend bent over and holding his stomach after finishing throwing up.

Brock ran over to his friend to check him out.

"Ash, are you alright?" asked Brock, placing a hand on the teen's shoulder.

Ash was about to tell him that he was fine, but before he could, he threw up again.

"I'll take that as a 'no'. Come on, let's lay you down so that you can relax." said Brock, helping his friend to lie down after finishing throwing up.

Ash moaned the entire time that he was moved and closed his eyes because the light was making him dizzy and more nauseated.

Brock started to examine Ash, but realized that the more he did, the worse the teen felt.

"Ash, I know you don't want to do this, but we have to take you to get checked out. This might be more serious than we think it is." said Brock, helping the teen out before carrying him piggyback to help the teen sleep after everything.

"Brock, what do you think is wrong with him?" asked May curiously.

"I don't know. I just hope that whatever's wrong with him, it's not too serious." replied Brock.

The siblings looked at each other before following their friends to see what's wrong.

(At Team Rocket Headquarters)

"Let's get ready to get him back here. We need to keep an eye on him since it's been about three weeks. I don't want anything happening to him like what happened to the others." said Giovanni as he watched the scene play out.

Dr. Klay nodded before going out with a couple of henchmen to grab the teen and his friends.

"This should be good." said Giovanni, smiling at the thought of seeing what he has created.

(Back With The Gang)

They were walking as fast as they could to the next town when a bunch or Team Rocket grunts surrounded them.

"What do you want?" asked Max, backing up to be by his sister and friends.

"Easy. We just want to help you're friend. We saw him and we couldn't look at him while he was in pain. Do you mind if we take a look at him back at our base?" asked Dr. Klay, trying to reassure them.

They looked at one another before nodding their heads in agreement.

"Fine. Please just help our friend." said Brock, holding their friend protectively against him.

"We will. Please follow us." said Dr. Klay, leading the way with the grunts still surrounding the gang.

They followed the doctor to the helicopter and they were able to lay their friend down before noticing that he was coming to, but only long enough to vomit before passing out again.

Dr. Klay noticed this and marked it down as he realized that most of the other women would be bleeding profusely from a miscarriage unlike the teen.

"Maybe Giovanni's right. I'll have to see for myself when we get back to Headquarters." thought Dr. Klay, writing down some notes and smiling a bit from how well the raven-haired teen looked compared to the other subjects.

They arrived back at Headquarters where a henchman took the teen back with Dr. Klay while the others stayed in a little room.

Dr. Klay moved the teen's shirt and jacket out of the way and was surprised how much he put on already.

"Wow. I can tell he's been eating well." said Dr. Klay, pressing gently on Ash's belly before pouring some gel on it.

He used the wand attached to a screen to find out how the baby was and was surprised to find that the heartbeat was strong along with the womb and how it was holding up.

"How is he?" asked Giovanni, looking the raven-haired teen over.

"He's doing just fine. Everything has stuck and the baby is doing perfectly." replied Dr. Klay, smiling as he cleaned Ash up.

"Good. That's what I wanted to hear. Go ahead and give him and his friends rooms, but I want him in a room by himself." said Giovanni before leaving.

Dr. Klay nodded as he told the henchmen to take the raven-haired teen to his own room to recover before he went to tell his friends what happened.

He saw them talking before going over to them and telling them about their friend somehow being pregnant.

"What?! How is that possible?!" asked Brock, May, and Max in unison as they were in shock from everything.

"I'm not sure, but I will keep an eye on him as I will keep him here to be on the safe side. I also have prepared a room for you three while Ash has his own. Follow me to your room." said Dr. Klay, leading them to their room before heading back to check on Ash.

He walked in to find the raven-haired teen waking up and moaning from the pain.

"How are you feeling, Ash?" asked Dr. Klay, sitting on the edge of the bed to check the teen's brown eyes.

"Sore. I was wondering why I have gained so much weight and constantly throwing up or have nausea along with stomach cramps." replied Ash, letting Dr. Klay take care of him.

"I figured after the cramps. It looks like you are pregnant." said Dr. Klay, telling Ash the news.

"How is that possible? I'm male. There's no way that I can be pregnant." said Ash, laying a hand on his belly.

"I know that it's unbelievable, but you are pregnant. Some how you were either born with a womb or it was implanted into you by someone." said Dr. Klay, comforting the teen.

"I think you're right." said Ash, moaning as the nausea came back.

"Just relax here and I will be in shortly to give you some medicine to help you out." said Dr. Klay, getting up and leaving with the raven-haired teen nodding in response as he tried to get comfortable.

Ash moaned as he laid his hands on his belly and rubbed it to try to help relieve the soreness in it and he was unaware of Giovanni watching him closely to make sure that this would turn out better than the others.

Hope you enjoyed Chapter 4! Sorry about not updating Sunday or yesterday. I wasn't feeling well yesterday after having an anxiety attack Sunday night. Don't ask why I had it, but I'm feeling much better now. :D Hopefully the next chapter will be out as soon as I get it done. Yay! See ya later!
