Okay back to Ghosts of Mount Silver.
I need to update body and Soul but this is really fun. Anime laws are over my head still but I'm trying to wrap my brain around them okay.
Okay let's continue.
I don't own any canon of Pokemon.
It had taken three days to traverse Ilex Forest.
May had only a few opinions on the subject.
One, it was really dark. Two, Pokemon attacked them at every turn. Three, it was a huge maze of trees.
The worst part was when the flashlights died two days in.
But the Pokemon center was really nice and well lit. In fact, they had stayed there two nights ago. They were now in Goldenrod City.
May quietly relaxed as she groomed her Pokemon lovingly. Pidgy was squirming around trying to see everything at once.
Jimmy on the other hand was talking animatedly to a boy with a blue-green ball hat and a furry Pikachu. They seemed to be talking about Pokemon Conferences, Jimmy about the Silver Conference and the other boy was talking about the Indigo League Conference.
Pidgy squirmed out of her lap and flew over to Jimmy to examine the new boy. May sighed, smiling, and walked over to the two boys.
"Hi I'm May, I'm a Pokemon co-ordinator!" She introduced herself. The boy, who looked suspiciously like a brunette Ash stood up and introduced himself as Ritche.
"Well I'm Ritchie." he said jumping up. His Pikachu calling out too. May instantly determined that the boy was pretty spirited. "You remind me of my friend Ash!" She said. "You both seem to look for adventure wherever you go."
Ritchie's eyes wides along with his smile. "You now Ash? I met him while in Kanto just before the Indigo league!" He said.
"Wow that's so cool! He ranked in the top 8 in Hoenn!" May said. "Then he's getting better, he ranked top 16 in the Indigo League Conference." Said Ritchie.
Pidgy cooed impatiently trying to grab their attention. "Oh sorry, is this your Pidgy?" He asked picking up Pidgy. "Yeah it is, he's so curious sometimes." She giggled as he handed Pidgy over and it perched on her shoulder.
"So," said Ritchie, "where do you think Ash is right now?" May shrugged. "He probably has a new Sinnoh league badge though. Which is an encouraging thought. I have to go okay? I want to sightsee a little." She said turning and leaving the Pokemon Center with Jimmy in pursuit hot on her heels.
"So May what do you want to see first?" Jimmy asked. "There's a gym, a contest hall, the radio tower, a pokeatholon Dome, and huge shopping center, an amazingly big harb-" he was cut short by May running in the direction of the Department Store.
"Shoppppiiinnggg!" Shouted May as she ran. Jimmy caught up to her at the clothing section. She was looking at an outfit of green and orange. It was an orange tunic top, black bike shorts, a green bandana and orange/green gloves.
But, she was at the cash register when he found her. "Woah slow down would ya?" He said. She turned and flushed in embarrassment. "Sorry, I really like to shop." She said. "Nah, really?" He remarked.
"Why'd ya buy that outfit anyways." Jimmy asked referring to the out fit in the Hoennian girls shopping bag.
"I just had to have it!" She said and began babbling on and on about how the colors had to have been made for each other and that not buying them would have been a crime against fashion.
"Er- anyways. Contest, this city, tick-tock." He said snapping her out of her rant.
He didn't necessarily like rushing, because you missed so many things, but the store managers where starting to shoot him glares for not buying anything, and other shoppers where also glaring at him for standing and doing nothing but getting in the way of the store front window displays.
"Your right! Oh my Arceus your right! Let's go!" She practically yelled and more shoppers stared as the brunette dragged the trainer by the collar of his sweatshirt.
If Jimmy had been able to speak during the dash to the stairs it would have been "help!","Slow down!",or even a helpful "watch out!" to pedestrians. But due to the shock of being dragged around by a girl shorter and lighter than him like it was easy, he was speechless.
As soon as they were out of the department store May yelled, "To the Contest Hall Jimmy!" And pushed him forward.
Stumbling Jimmy lead May through the crowded streets of Goldenrod City past the Pokeatholon Dome to the Contest Hall.
Venders were everywhere. On guy was trying to sell Magikarp for 500 pokedollars. Another was trying to sell an angry Crobat. Nobody was buying though.
Wait angry Crobat? They only evolved through happiness. It was either a fake or...
Stolen.
Whipping out his PokeGear he speed dialed Silver.
"What Jimmy?" He growled angrily. "I'm this close to getting my Crobat back, what do you want?"
"Oh," said Jimmy dumbfounded. "Me and May just found your Crobat at a vendor's stall at the Contest Hall, where are you?"
"In disguise walking towards that very stall." Replied Silver. "Catch ya later."
Silver hung up.
May came back with food in her mouth.
She took one look at Jimmy's dumbfounded expression and asked, "so what happened while I was getting food?"
Jimmy grabbed her by the arm and pointed at a teenaged girl with red hair at the Crobat stall.
The girl, to May was unremarkable, she dressed like a boy in a black and red tunic top and slightly baggy pants, no chest whatsoever, she could have been a boy except she had that feminine walk. The only thing remarkable was that the Crobat warmed up to her in an instant.
The two vendors each female and male with orange and teal hair respectively, where telling her it was a good buy, and that the Crobat suited her perfectly.
May looked a Jimmy. "Is she your Ex or something?" She asked. Jimmy shook his head. "Remember my friend Silver?" He asked. She nodded. "The guy with the Sneasel, right?" "That's him, and that's his Crobat, the one that was stolen from him. He's about to go Primape on those Team Rocket thugs."
"Yes I'll take it," said Silver in an irritated voice. "As soon as you give me my other Pokemon back!"
As if on cue Officer Jennys' stormed in and where about to arrest them when they sent out some of the stolen Pokemon. These Pokemon included a Snowrunt, and a very familiar Alakazam.
Jimmy and May rushed forward only to be stopped by an Officer Jenny who told them that it was too dangerous and that they were capturing Pokemon thieves.
"Alakazam!" Shouted Silver. "I'm your trainer, use Psychic on," he checked his pokedex. "Snowrunt! Sneasel," he said releasing the girl. "Use thief to steal back Alakazam and Crobat's pokeballs!"
"Ala." he* nodded and a blue aura surrounded his spoons as Snowrunt was lifted into the air where psychic energy did damage.
Sneasel nodded and disappeared as she snatched the pokeballs faster than the eye could blink. She reappeared with the two pokeballs and smiled as she showed her trainer her stolen goods.
He smiled, grabbed the pokeballs and the two refocused on the battle.
Snowrunt fell to the ground knocked out Cassidy threw it's pokeball down and growled about it being a weak and useless Pokemon.
Blich threw a smoke ball and when the smoke cleared it revealed that Team Rocket had escaped.
The Jennys' rushed of to find Team Rocket.
Silver returned his Crobat and Alakazam into their pokeballs. He turned to see Jimmy and May followed by a blonde girl he didn't know rushing over to him.
"Man!" Exclaimed Jimmy. "How many of your Pokemon do you have now?" He asked. Silver almost answered before he was interrupted by the blonde girl in a yellow and white parka and a black and orange/yellow Pokemon.
"Arceus that was so awesome! I saw the whole thing! You where all 'I'll take it, if you give me my other Pokemon back!'" She said imitating his voice almost exactly.
"And then you used Sneasel to steal the Pokemon back! It was so awsome!" The girl continued to ramble on and on about Silver's exploits.
'Does she have an off button?' was what went though both Silver and Jimmy's minds.
"And you are?" Asked May, obviously a bit confused about whet this girl came from.
The blonde stopped rambling about Silver's battle and introduced herself. "Oh I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. Sorry! My name's Topi and I'm gonna collect all of the ribbons here so my dad'll let me go to Unova and be in a Pokemon musical!"
She looked at May intently. "And your May right? I was in the contest on Violet City remember? You and some North Dakota person won."
May remembered that contest very well. "Her didn't you where that yellow sundress and do that mini play with a Mawile?" She asked.
Topi nodded. "Yup!"
"What's a Pokemon Musical?" Asked Jimmy.
Topi's eyes glistened and closed as she did a dramatic spin with her Mawile dancing in sync.
"A Pokemon Musical is where a Pokemon dresses up and performs on stage with a bunch of other Pokemon." She said passionately.
"Maw wile mawi wi wile mawile!" Cried Ma-Wa.
"They haven't spread out of Unova yet so I want to go their and participate in one." Topi said dramatically clasping her hands to her chest.
It seamed everything she did was dramatic.
Sliver scoffed. "Whatever. I'm out." And he left to pick up the trail again as May, Jimmy, and Topi went to register for the contest.
Meanwhile on route 35.
Silver was pissed.
Plain and simple.
Botch and Cassidy had gotten away again. He still didn't have Magnitron, Gengar, or his Sneasel back yet.
He didn't like to admit it but he was very worried.
And if there's one thing that scares the masses, it's a worried Silver.
The girl Sneasel pulled on his pant leg summoning his attention. He looked down and it pointed up. He looked up and saw a small party falling through the air slightly ahead of him screaming.
He jumped back as they hit the ground he was previously standing on.**
A Meowth landed right in front of him, only to become the landing pad of a man and a woman.
The pink, red, urrg!, MAGENTA hair woman on the top of the Hounder-pile stood up and dusted her self off before arguing with the lavender haired man***.
"This is your fault Meowth!" She yelled.
Honestly, Silver thought, who blames the Meowth.
The trio before him neglected to look at him so he couldn't see their faces or clothing.
"Don't-cha blame meh!" Cried the Meowth.
Wait the Meowth?
What the hell?
"It's your fault we blasted off! You built that Pikachu snatching contraption!" Yelled the man.
"Why would you want a stupid Pikachu anyways, you have a talking Meowth!" Silver yelled, making his presence known.
"Hey, I think I'ves sheens chu before." Said the Scratch Cat Pokemon with a Jersey accent. Wait, where the hell was Jersey?
Now that they were facing him he could see that their shirts had been covered in black soot.
"Yes." said the man. "He does look familiar. Tell me, have you ever been to Kanto?"
Silver gritted his teeth. "Yes I was born there, Viridian City." He said. He didn't trust them. Natural instinct.****
"I think I saw you at a company picnic, If I recall." Said the woman.
Company picnic? Great that one his father dragged him to.
The man slapped his fist into his open hand. "I think your on to something Jeese!"
"I tink ch'you both might be right." Said the Meowth.
"We'll I think your low level Team Rocket Grunts." Said Silver, preparing to send them back to their Viridian HQ with a note to his father personally thanking him for sending low level grunts as field operatives.*x5
"I'm going to knock you all back to you Viridian City HQ! Sneasel! I've beam!" The Sneasel blew a blast of ice energy at Team Rocket encasing them in ice.
"Shadow ball!"
The ball of dark energy broke the ice and sent them flying east. But Sneasel's aim had them traveling far too north for them to land in Viridian.
He shook his head and faced the Sneasel. "We missed." He said and the Sneasel looked a bit disappointed as they continued north.
"Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!"
On Mt. Silver
Strangely enough Team Rocket, still musing on the identity of the red head landed on the mountain of his namesake.
On the same mountain, twenty feet up fifty yards away.
A trio of teens sit around a fire, two boys and one girl, in broad daylight. The girl looked anything but ready to survive on a snow covered mountain with her sun hat, sleeveless shirt, and red skirt, she giggled softly as she recounted her day while eating beaf jerky. A Charizard munches on Pokemon food to her immediate right.
To her left was a boy with a green short sleeved shirt and long pants with shorts on top of them a knitted sock hat rested atop his sleek black hair. He was writing letters a field notes in a journal, 5 jerky slices balanced on his knee. A Swampert dashes forward with unbelievable speed and swipes a piece only to be chastised by a Shiftry who dropped some of its stiff green leaves to the snowy ground.
To HIS left was a boy with black bed head and a beret, he had a large blue coat and a red scarf. He was picking berries off his Torterra's back where many berries were planted.
Lucas, as this boy was called just happened to notice three figures flying in from the south-west. "Hey Leaf, Brendan! You guys should see this!" The two looked up at the third.
"What is it Lucas?" Asked the boy closing his journal as he almost stood up before realizing he had jerked on his knee.
The girl stood up jerky sticking out of her mouth.
Lucas pointed at the three flying figures. "Maybe their trainer we can battle." Suggested Lucas.
The girl, Leaf, swallowed the rest of her jerky and shot her hand in the air excitedly. "It's my turn! Brendy went last time!" She exclaimed.
"Hey, it's Brendan." Said Brendan off handedly looking back to his journal. Leaf puffed out her cheeks and swiped the journal.
"Ohh~! Who's this, your lover?" she asked.
Brendan flushed and grabbed for it. "She's just a friend, okay?" He said putting it in his bag.
"Minute, twelve seconds till impact, exactly." Announced Lucas.
Brendan smirked at Leaf. "Race?" He asked slyly and began running towards the impact point.
"No fair!"
"Wait for me!" Yelled Lucas as he ran after his friends, but not before returning his Torterra.
"Where are we?" Asked James gazing around the snowy mountain.
Just then a boy rounded the corner with a girl and another boy. "See I won again! I am the champ!"
The girl stepped forward smiling sweetly. "Wanna battle, one on one, my Pokemon versus your Meowth."
"Battle begin!" Shouted the kid in the thick jacket.
"Wait what?!" Cried Meowth.
"I choose you, Thunder!"
"Pika!"
"Volt Tackle!"
"PI PI PI PIKAAAA-CHUUUU!"
"LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET'S BLASTING OFF AGAIN!"
Well Team Rocket had to blast off eventually! XD
*all of Silver's team excluding Magniton and the girl Sneasel in this fic are male.
** as Ash's Team Rocket fall it is mentioned that they are ahead of Silver's position but they land where he was standing, this is correct. As Sinnoh (where Ash currently is) is north of Johto. They flew in the direction of the south and momentum brought them more towards Silver's northward path. So they landed on Silver's position.
*** I always thought of James' hair as lavender instead of violet and Jeese's hair is dark pink, red, magenta, or primrose. Anyways it's pink.
**** Silver has much more of this than Ash does, he can't even pick out Team Rocket in obvious disguises.
*x5 come on! You can't even steal a freakin Pikachu! Just go to a freakin power plant, or steal a Pichu their cuter!
Silver now has three members of his original team and the girl Sneasel
I loved writing Topi's part it was, *spins dramatically to look at now stary backdrop* dramatic.
And who are Lucas, Leaf, and Brendan? You know you know.
Contest next chapter, okay?
Review and send OCs my way plz.
