Ch 5: Of The Past and Pie
A/n this chapter will defiantly tell about Zeke's past and the real connection between him and the man from team rocket named Lucius. I do not own pokemon.
Daniel saw Zeke as soon as he hit the ramp to get off to boat. "Zeke how you doing ?" he asked " and when can we get something to eat?"
"I'm great and we are going to go to the pokemon center to eat with my traveling partner Alexis." Zeke said ready for his pie.

At the pokemon center the two guys managed to track down Alexis who was sitting there reading a book.
"Hey Alexis this is Daniel, Daniel Alexis" Zeke introduced them and they exchanged pleasantries and Daniel ordered his food, and Zeke confirmed his order.
After they started eating Daniel and Zeke stated talking about what had happened to Zeke and Alexis in Viridian City. " Lucius came up and we fought, it brought back so many memories from my parent's deaths."
"Can I ask how your parent's deaths and this guy are connected?" asked Alexis asked hopeing he would not get mad at her.
" That man was the man who killed my parents. My father worked for the internatiol police as a spy inside of team rocket. Lucius was my fathers partner for the mission, they had obtained many secrets but team rocket seamed to still escape from most traps. My dad then found out how team rocket was managing to get away, Lucius was a double agent and was working for team rocket to both leak secrets to the international police and make sure team rocket knows where and when the traps where. Once my dad found that out they took him to my home tied him to a chair and knocked him out. They proceeded to set the house on fire. My mother managed to get me out but when she went after my dad the roof collapsed. They died in the fire and he was the one who did it ." after he finished it looked like he was about to cry.
Alexis who was about to cry herself "that's so sad, I see why you hate team rocket now."
"And that's why he eats pie, it's the only thing other than a pokemon battle that can get it out of his mind." Daniel whom had herd the story before understood his friends problems.
"Ya and speaking of which," his pie had arrived from the kitchen and Zeke immediately started digging in.
"I'm still amazed that he can eat that much pie and not get sick." Alexis joked.
"I have an iron stomach and its also a bottomless pit." Zeke joked in a better mood since he got his pie. "Hey Daniel after we eat lets have a pokemon battle, you Bisharp against my Pidgeot, what do you say?"
"Fine by me but your goanna loose this match!" Daniel said.
\::/
When they managed to get outside of town for their battle they were setting up when wouldn't ya know it Team Rocket shows up.
"Great just what I need a butch of thugs for my Pidgeot to eliminate." Zeke said when he saw them.
There was seven of them, three sent out Raticates , three more sent out Primeapes, and the last one sent out a Tauros.
"ok Blastoise come on out!" called out Daniel.
The battle started off with the Raticates trying to attack Blastoise with hyper fang, " Blastoise use Hydro Cannon to hit them into the air." Daniel was setting up fro Zeke to do a special combo with his Pidgeot.
"Pidgeot hit them with Brave bird!" Zeke called out "aim them at the Primeapes and get them too."
When Pidgeot managed to hit them he also managed to hit the Primeapes and they where all defeated.
"Tauros throw Blastoise into Pidgeot!" called the Rocket member
"Gothorita use physic to stop Tauros in his tracks" Alexis cried out. "Zeke do it."
"Pidgeot use Ariel ace to finish him off." Zeke called. his Pidgeot's speed compared with the burst of speed from aerial ace blasted Tauros into the ground creating a small creator and defeating Tauros.
After the rocket members ran off Zeke turned to Alexis and said " thank you for your help, I didn't think you had it in you to help us like that."
"I may not be the bravest person in the world but my pokemon are pretty powerful." Alexis said.
"lets head back to the pokemon center guys" Daniel said
\:::/
After getting their pokemon healed in the pokemon center the group decided to head back to Viridian City to get ready for the tournament. It was getting dark so the group decided to set up camp in a small clearing.
"Hey Daniel can you go and collect some firewood for us tonight" Zeke asked, he would have done it himself but he needed to do something else.
"Sure thing, if I'm not back in an hour I've been eaten." Daniel joked as he left
"Come on out everyone, time to stretch." Zeke called out and sent out all sixteen of his pokemon.
"you guys do the same" Alexis said as she sent out her main six " this is one of the first times ive seen your pokemon outside of combat, your Pichu Is cute but what's with the ear ?"
Zeke went through the story of how he got Pichu with him, "Oh that's a little odd but I guess since she likes you it works."
"I got fire wood for us, and I did not get eaten." joked Daniel.
" Obviously," Zeke retorted " thanks for doing that my pokemon kneaded a chance to stretch and with Pichu not knowing Alexis or you very well she might have panicked."
"lets head in we have an early morning tomorrow" Alexis said
"night everyone " Daniel said.
"Night" Zeke said
