VT: well… here goes the next chapter. Also, the exterior of the Gym is based off one glance of watching a Saffron City match.

Psychic Misgivings

The lady newly arrived looked over on the battle that had transpired… seeing a few down trees, a bench destroyed… along with destroyed sidewalks and ruined paths. It was a mess now. She only shook her head as she looked over the three trainers and their weak Pokemon. "I seem to have come at a good time, come… I will take you to the Gym Leader; I think she would be very happy to battle you there." She smiled in a way that no one could see it, but the smile was their none the less, and that smile was one of as if a fox had just cornered a rabbit and the rabbit had no idea that it was being cornered.

Ethan was looking at the lady in a funny way as if trying to figure out who she is… suddenly he gasped and exclaimed in a startled yet honored voice, "Your Sabrina… you're the Saffron City Gym Leader." He then blinked for she had turned around and looked him straight in the eye. Her face was one of a fury of being revealed and at his volume of voice… suddenly her face took on a look of confusion as she stared at Ethan.

"You are different then the other trainers I have met before." As she says this, the look on her face and voice returning to normal, which was a look of stoic calm and regard, "You seem apt at stating things that may or may not be good to be revealed, remember that." She then falls silent and then looks straight ahead not regarding the three trainers that she was leading to her Gym.

Soon they stand in front of the Gym which was bathed in a white light from hidden spots on the ground. Shadows were underneath the many eaves that are formed from the multiple arches on the roof, along with the entry way, the place looked to be all made from arches.

Sabrina leads the three into the building and nods down one hallway, "Ethan, if you wouldn't mind doing something for me, you see I have an unreasonable Trainer that thinks he is getting powerful enough to beat a Dark Type Pokemon, he never battled one and so I would like you teaching him a lesson, if you do that under a five minute time limit, I will present you a badge, that way, I can focus more on battling against your brother and companion." She wasn't smiling at all, her face was dead pan and completely and totally serious. Ethan looks at her once and sees just how cold she seemed in emotion but still he got the shivers and right away nodded his head.

"Okay, I guess I can do it." He then shook his head in bafflement, something wasn't right, but he wasn't Psychic, but at the same time he realized that she couldn't read his mind because he was showing more traits of being a Dark Type Pokemon, something that was going to present a problem if anyone decided to try and read his mind, but he also knew that he would have to work fast if he wanted to get a gym match. That gave a few alarms to him, why wouldn't she want to battle him? Why would she save her team only for Matthew and Becky? Before he could finish his thinking, they were in front of two gold looking double doors, solid and sound by the look of it. The ceiling had Florissant lighting shining onto the hallway making the place still feel creepy with all the curves and arches that were in the hallway.

"In here please, my student has reported here, please remember a five minute limit; I will be timing this with precision and accuracy. So do this with the best possible speed." Sabrina then looks at the doors, her eyes glow for a moment and the doors open to show a battle field with torches burning on the walls. The gravel colored battle field had one student, dressed in a white school uniform type dress, he has an Alakazam standing in front of him, smiling all snidely and with the air the reeked to Ethan of over confidence and arrogance, and he smiled, he for some reason felt like he was going to enjoy this little game, too bad it wasn't going to be no-time limit match, otherwise he would be toying around with him.

"Sabrina? What are you doing? You know I am almost ready to challenge you for the Gym Spot and take over the Gym, so what is this that you are doing? Bringing me a rookie trainer? That's ridiculous." The trainer said in a laughing tone of voice that showed that he was mocking Ethan by calling him a rookie trainer, but a trainer that has gotten this far should be at least by now, a decent trainer, or a very lucky one.

"I assure you Fredrick that this will be a battle that will be worth you time and skill." Sabrina said this with the same tone as before, indifferent and completely emotionless.

"Please." Fredrick said with a voice that showed that he wasn't even listening and was in fact blowing off her advice. "I'll beat this in no time at all," he then focused straight at Ethan and then blinked, for next to him was Eve, gold rings glowing in the fire light, her black pelt reflecting the light. "So… that is a dark type… can't read her mind nor can Alakazam… so… let's see what she's got, you will not last long." He then smirked before he closed his eyes and seemed to just think.

The Alakazam only looked at the Umbreon and seemed to concentrate, before looking shocked. He then looked at his trainer who looked just as shocked.

"WHAT? But… that's impossible; nobody can dodge a Psychic Attack, let alone not be affected by them…" His face then took on a look of determination. "No matter, that was probably a fluke. I will crush you." He then fell silent and a look of determination crossed his face.

Ethan only smirked and only nodded his head, Eve taking this unspoken cue has her gold rings glowed brighter and disappeared into a shadow fading out of existence, both trainer and Pokemon looked around wonder what happened.

The trainer only smirked evilly, "You forfeit, your Pokemon has left the arena, you don't even have a Pokemon, so…" he didn't finish his speech for suddenly Alakazam acted as if he was just hit by something and then Eve appeared a little away from the Alakazam smirking an Umbreon smile, not even panting from the effort.

"What? But Teacher, that has to be illegal, he can't do it, can he?" He was now looking at Sabrina with a look as if hoping that he was right and he could win on a default.

Sabrina only shook her head, "Did I teach you nothing about attacks? That is indeed a legal move; it is called a faint attack." She then spoke before he could interrupt again, "No, he isn't breaking anything for not speaking, you don't talk at all either and you speak with your mind to your Alakazam that is the same as what you do."

Ethan had during this seemed to have communicated to her to come back to where he was and then he makes a chomp noise with his teeth. Eve at the sound Ethan made shot forward using a bite attack upon Alakazam, who was still trying to get use to fighting an opponent that he, could attack with his psychic powers at all.

"Quick use a Thunder Punch upon that unnatural creature, try and hurt her and make her faint before she hurts you further." He looked worried, those two hits looked like they did more damage then he was use to seeing.

Eve was smacking her muzzle in a mocking way at the Alakazam. Ethan only looked at Eve and nodded the same way as before, Eve then disappeared but reappeared even faster and attacked, doing a critical hit that took the Alakazam down, but he was able to by searching for the hole that was her mind, hit her with his thunder punch that really hurt Eve. Leaving her slightly stiff in the joints from the electricity that had hit her.

"Two minutes remain in this battle; please remember that this is a time limit battle." Sabrina's voice rings out suddenly, in her calm and slightly unnerving voice that denote complete void of emotion. The tense moment seemed much longer as both Pokemon panted while staring at each other in a way that showed that they were not ready to give up the fight just yet.

Both Pokemon looked at their trainers, who each gave them a silent command, and both Pokemon went at it, one loathing the other for not being able to be controlled under his mind, the other wanting to prove to her trainer that she was worthy of an Alpha position in the team, along with a trust that runs deep, very, very deep.

One moved forward fire encasing his fist as he levitated over the ground at a fast clip towards the other. The other at the last moment splits into multiple copies of herself to circle around the opponent. They all moved around the Alakazam. This caused him to become confused, as well as hitting a fake copy that promptly disappeared. Before he can recover, he is hit from behind, Eve's small fangs digging into the Alakazam's hide. The Alakazam tried to shake off the Dark Type, but his strength failed him, and he fell over onto his face. Fredrick returns the Alakazam with a red beam of light that engulfs the Alakazam as he is sucked back into his Pokeball and then is placed onto the trainer's belt.

"This battle is over; the winner is Ethan Vixen of Vulpix Village, who has defeated the other opponent with a minute and three seconds left before the time expires." Sabrina said in the same cold and emotionless voice, she was now looking at Matthew and Becky as the other trainer leaves the field in a huff. "You two will fight my team in a two on one match, you win and receive the Soul Badge, loss," Her voice turns cold and commanding, "Loss, and you must and will join our ranks of where you belong, I assure you that we have missed our commanders for a long time." Sabrina then smiled, her smile was one that would have probably freaked out most anybody, and that included all three trainers, they all took an involuntary step back, Ethan however had a badge appear in his hand which promptly emitted a pink colored smoke that escaped around his fingers, right away Ethan let go of the badge only to have it stick to his hand.

"Ethan," Matthew shouted as he suddenly grabbed his stomach and went to his knees, Becky did that same thing, when he spoke next it was with pain and his voice showed that his vocal chords were changing into that of his Ninetales side, "Run, get away before you fall. You must, get, help." He then slumps to the ground, feeling the pain for the first time ever of changing, his body shifting slowly to his Ninetales side.

Ethan had already sent the badge to the shadow paths where he was pleased to note that it lost all ability to do what it was doing, he was getting a tad light headed, but his head was now beginning to clear up. He knew suddenly that Sabrina knew who he was and he wasn't going to fool her, so with Eve and him, now an Umbreon, and on their own will they both fazed out of the Gym Room.

Sabrina only stepped forward and stopped in front of the two Ninetales as they picked themselves up to sit in a position that would normally elect an excitement from a kid but the look they gave Sabrina was one of loathing and a look that said they were going to curse her right on the spot. It was look that wouldn't give the best of feeling to anyone watching them. Then both eyes shot open with shock and horror.

"Yes, you see I am a strong Psychic, and as such I was able to block your ability to tap into those Special Forces that make you control matter and the DNA strands. So now, I am offering you a change, you see I will let you go if you fight me, alone that is, and you can go." She then smirked darkly as she said the next set of words, "Fail and faint, not only you, but your teams, will be brainwashed and will serve the needs of Team Rocket, I assure you that when you wake up, you will not be remembering this battle at all, but another memory pattern instead, you see, this town will become a base of operations for Team Rocket, from here we will gain back our lost experiments that agent Shadow Moon has taken from us."

Matthew and Becky stared at each other, for both of them knew that the only reason that she was telling them this information was because she knew that she would not loss this fight, they only hoped that Ethan would be back in time to save some of them.

Ethan appears once again, but this time he is human and he is in an ally way near the Pokemon Center. After making sure no one had seen his entrance he hurries forward, across the street and into the Pokemon Center, looking both left and then right, his eyes scanning the lobby he couldn't see a trainer at all. The nurse that is on duty, another Nurse Joy, jumps at his sudden barge into the Center, an Umbreon next to him, both looking right and left.

"May I help you?" Nurse Joy asked making both Pokemon and Trainer jump and turn to face her. The look on their face right away makes her brace herself for a worst case report, a trainer being attacked by a wild city Pokemon, A death outside of town, a worker getting crushed by a pile of bricks, but she was not ready for the next sentence.

"You can call the police and report that we have an Admin of Team Rocket at the Psychic Gym, her name is Sabrina, my brother and his friend is in danger, call them now." Before she could answer him he had dashed into the attached cafeteria, she would have dismissed it as a hoax but the look, the look in his eyes was one of pure fear, something that her Chansey had picked up on and was now fretting to go and try and calm down the trainer and Pokemon, but the Nurse Joy only stops the Chansey

"Go to Code R Chansey, contact the other Chansey in the center, I will contact the Police and other Joy's, we must hurry, remember our anti Psychic invasion training, now go." She whispered this to her Chansey, for some reason the mood of the trainer had brushed off onto her.

In the cafeteria Ethan was glad, their was an older looking trainer that was looking out the window and into a small side park that only had a bench and a lawn of grass beneath the bench, lost in thoughts of his own. While the other part of the cafeteria was occupied by people he didn't think he would see so soon again, he was happy them again, however, he first went to the older gentleman, and well he looked like a Gentleman.

"SIR," Ethan shouted causing not only him but the others to look at him, but his back was turned to him and Eve was hidden from view, he had both of his hands on the table and was leaning over it slightly not realizing till he spoke that he was panting a small bit and his voice was rising in volume, but he then lowered it, "Sir, you have to help me, my friends are in trouble, they are under attack by Team Rocket, they are at the Gym, Please you," he didn't get to finish his sentence, he was also talking a mile an hour, voice still strong and high.

"Whoa, slow down kid, don't rush so fast…" His face paled as he digested the information, it seemed he was halfway through a motion of removing something from his shirt pocket, he then stops, however, he removed it still, revealing that he was with the Kanto National Times, a huge Newspaper that his parents read, but that was the extent of his knowledge for this paper. "I am with the paper, now what do you need?" He looked like he was asking this in a tone that a Pokemon could pick up as a ploy, Even though he picked it up he was still flustered, "I don't an interview, I need able trainers, and I need all the help that I can get." He was completely and totally beside himself, he felt that he was losing time, time that they didn't have anymore.

The trainer put his press card away, back into the shirt Pocket that he had pulled it from. He then stood and then adjusted a faded blue trainer's jacket, while putting on an old red baseball cap. He looked like he was clinging to a past the way he held the cap.

"The name's Rich, that's all you need to know, now let's get moving." He looked like he was ready to move.

"Not yet, I need to," He stopped as a few shadows fell atop him. Turning around he smiles, for the other kids at the other two tables were standing their.

"What's this about a Rocket attack?" Robert asked and he smiled. "I think I also heard that your brother and friend are in trouble," he then looks around him, "I pledge the Junior Police Force to your aid, I assure you that even though we look to be middle aged as trainers go, we are still strong and getting better."

Ethan only looks shocked but then nods his head, "Come I will explain what I can while we get to the Gym, let's hurry." Ethan and Eve left in a hurried pace not noticing that the Nurse had disappeared to who knows where.

The battle back at the Gym was going badly, both Becky and Matthew were panting heavily while fighting an Alakazam, this one much stronger then the one that Ethan had battled, they had also learned that Ethan's battle was only a ploy, for the Gym was in fact a training ground for Psychic users that joined Team Rocket, this made Becky and Matthew wonder just how many gyms that they controlled along with what else were fronts for a Rocket scheme.

The Alakazam suddenly raises both spoons and Becky is lifted off the ground she tries to fire off an attack but her muzzle is kept shut by the power of the Psychic, both were beginning to think that this one was not gym approved Pokemon, it was too powerful for trainers that fought for the fifth badge. Becky was then after a few moment in the air thrown into a side wall, that was out of bounds. She gets up and with her last of her strength fires off a Fire Blast, a move that the Ninetales side of her knew. She after using up this last of her strength, falls over fainted, still breathing but out cold.

Matthew Vixen along with his Ninetales side named Light Tail takes a deep breath and fires off a Fire Spin, there have been a few of these during the battle trying to keep the Alakazam in one spot, it worked but it always failed in the end, but he knew that he was making a risky move. Both Becky and he had used fire attacks that so happened to crossed the other's path, rising the other's fire power, both were doing a tone of damage but the Alakazam was using Recover as well, along with potions from Sabrina. After the Fire Spin surrounded him he realized that his power had indeed increased but also that he wasn't feeling any better. He got stronger, not healthier. So with his added boost he located the Alakazam by a burn scent of his fur, Sabrina it seemed was not healing his burn, of course it was a burn that would only go away after he fainted, he was able to use what magic he had to inflicted a burn during the battle, but now he knew the burn would be at it's peak but he was also about ready to meet the darkness called being fainted. Still he was faring horribly, when suddenly he felt a presence that lifted his spirits even though he knew that what he was going to do wouldn't win the battle, it would show just who he was allied with, with that the Fire Spin seemed to soak into him and for a moment it seemed as if fire itself was coursing around his fur, suddenly he snapped his muzzle at the Alakazam who was looking shocked wondering what he was doing, and from his muzzle came fire in the shape of a bird that turned into a move not many mortals have every seen, but every Pokemon knew about, a move that comes from a Pokemon that some says watches the world for when to return, while others say that she is really preparing herself and others for a final showdown with the forces of man that represent the same forces the forced her and her brother from Ecruteak City, the move was Scared Flame. Matthew after using that move sways left, then to the right and as his vision blurs, he could see the shocked face of the Alakazam, even though he was still standing the Alakazam knew that Ho-oh was nearby. Why Matthew didn't know nor cared. For sleep felt so good and so he succumbed to it, allowing Sabrina to move on with her plan. Sabrina only smiled; she knew what the attack was. So she thought to herself that was the move Sacred Fire, maybe if I play my cards right, I will bring Giovanni not only two troublesome rouges, but the great phoenix herself. She laughed in her mind, the laughter however rang through out the Gym/base in every person's mind, most of them knew what it meant, that she had succeeded in capturing two Ninetales.

Ethan and his group minutes after both Matthew and Becky succumb to being fainted, and both Matt and Firestorm, along with Sparks are fainted in almost one hit moves by Sabrina's Pokemon, they arrive at the Gym's front court yard only to find about twenty trainers, all wearing the same uniform of the Saffron City Gym, only they looked like they were going to attack the new group that was arriving, and attack they did.

Ethan slows and stops as he sees the group of people; right away he releases his three Pokemon: Dark Wing and Kyle. Eve was already out of her Pokeball, she was panting a small bit from the run. He smiles and nodes his head in a sharp jerk. With that all three Pokemon engaged the nearest Pokemon an Abra.

The Junior Police Force soon draw ranks around the outside of the green park like area in front of the gym, all of them having Pokeballs out, all looking at each other, they had right before they left had once again called and asked for their Jhoto teams, the Professor of their town, Goldenrod had joked that he should just set them aside as this was their second time to call for them. They had only laughed and brushed it off. Now they are standing all serious and set jaw. All of them were not talking, except for one girl who was whining a small bit. "Well, looks like we are going into another hopeless situation… do we ever get to battle easy Robert?" She was however saying this to be funny because of what Robert said next.

"Yep, you better believe it, we are out to make your life hard." With that joke he sends out his entire team, consisting of a Typhlosion, Sneasel, Stantler, Furret, Arados, and finally a Ditto. "Ditto, transform into that Umbreon." Robert shouted as the rest of the team mates released their own Pokemon, revealing the fully evolved forms of the other Starters from the Jhoto Region, along with other Jhoto and some Kanto Pokemon. They all faced the Psychic Pokmeon.

The old man only had two Pokemon, a Gyarados, and a Walrein, both of which commenced to do a Powder snow from the Walrein and from the Gyarados came a Hyper Beam which went wide due to all the Psychics teleporting out of the way. The Hyper Beam hits the top of the Gym and clips off all the peaks in the arches of the gym, however it was still holding together meaning the arches were just for show.

The other Pokmeon consisting of about over forty two Pokemon about half of them are Dark Types. It soon became a sea of chaos within moments, explosions and attacks meeting in the middle, Pokemon getting hit on both sides and finally the Dark Types advantages against the Psychic Pokemon. This all was devastation against the Gym Defenders.

Suddenly a Wooper hits Ethan in the side and Wooper with his foot covered in ice had frozen part of the side of Ethan and from behind a tree steps out the lady from earlier the afternoon. "Good job Woop, good job indeed." She smiled before looking around. "Venomoth, Woopette, use attack beta five." She smiled as Woopette used the attack Surf upon the rear flank, and then the Venomoth was about to blow a Sleep Powder to the still stands forty or there about Pokemon when a Fire Blast hits the moth, the Venomoth flutters trying to stay in the air before fainting from that one hit.

The Lady turns around and faces the intruder; it was Riku from the battle before the Gym Match. "So, trying to help out Team Rocket still? I must say Nicole, you can be better then that, you have potential…"

"Never call me that name you hear me?" The lady now known as Nicole shouted, anger in her voice. "How dare you, from the G-force no less. I will not be called that name anymore." She charges Riku who side steps away from the charge and into the shadows.

Ethan gets distracted as the double door fall down with an almighty thud and stepping out from the dust caused a lull in the battle, that is until the Pokemon next to the two that were standing in the door way as more grunts, this time wearing Rocket uniforms rush out and joined the battle.

Ethan stood dumbstruck, the battle still going on, but not a sound he heard nor did he really listen or hear the Pokemon cries or the shouts of the trainers, their standing wearing Rocket fatigues and ranking of an executive where two People Ethan never expected to see. Matthew and Becky, both in their Ninetales hybrid selves, both shouted out commands leading two flanks of Rockets and Pokemon, their own in the ranks all looking like they were not really seeing.

Matthew smirked, making it look like a snarl on his slight muzzle, red eyes viewing the battle, fur covering his face, between the grey formless Rocket cap were two Ninetales ears. He was also standing on the hind paws of a Ninetales, along with nine cream colored tails with darker brown red tips. Becky was also the same but looked more feminine. But both of them had the same expression on their faces, one of a thirst of a fight. The confusion that hit the attackers was enough for the Rockets to push forward their attack.

Suddenly Ethan remembered words spoken to him from this very morning and so removing from a side pocket of his pack, the Umbreon colored Ocarina and when he put his moth to the moth piece it seemed as if both sides surged forward, one to attack him, the other to defend him, amazingly, even though his side was still incased with ice he played the only song that he could play. A song that he was told to play only when one needed hope and the other was in a dire situation that wouldn't be any more hope in. as he played it sounded mournful almost like a strange weeping, but then a not sounded, almost like it wasn't from the Ocarina itself and the song turned majestic and strong denoting a sense of peace and a time of happier times without battles. It almost felt as if another had joined in with the music, this time sounding like the wails of a real Pokemon but most people were looking at Ethan and the Ocarina completely forgetting the battle going on, however only the Pokemon noticed a dark huge shadow pass over the field and destroyed gym at this moment the song ended on a note of sorrow that seemed as if the singer was exhausted from the singing. Indeed Ethan slumped to the ground and sat numbly.

However something had changed. The look in the red eyes of Matthew and Becky were more intelligence and much brighter. Along with the other Pokemon of theirs, with this renewed hope, for that was what it was, the Attackers all pushed forward and in a sweeping victory while the Rockets were still stunned they won, unfortunately they missed Sabrina, she seemed to have escaped at the last moment, within moments later Police sirens could be heard, but by the time the Police got to the Gym, they only saw was a destroyed Gym, a lengthy letter explaining what happed and knocked out Rockets and student from the Gym.

The Junior Police and the rest were meeting in a deserted shed holding bricks for the wall. They had just finished a meeting of them all promising not to tell what happened, but also not revealing who Becky and Matthew were really. Nor that Ethan was an Umbreon morph. They also inducted the three and the older gentleman who was looking at Ethan with a look of respect into the Junior Police.

As they left all promising to travel together, except for the older gentleman, who said he needed to stay for his partner to come into town tomorrow and cover this news development. But as they departed, the man named Rich stopped Ethan and smiled at him. "The legendaries have trusted you, and one has accepted you." He said point blank.

"What? What did you say?" Ethan said with a gasp. Surprised at what he was being told.

"I said that one legendary approves of how you used their song, their feather hangs from your Ocarina. See." He points to he instrument that is still in Ethan's hand, for from the middle of the moth piece, right before it moves into the rest of the body hands a white thread, from it, looking more like a smooth scale of a fish then a feather of a pale bluish white color, it moves as if in it's own breeze. Ethan only stares at it, and then jerks his head up expecting the man to have disappeared, but he hadn't. His face was one of seriousness and a look that said that his next words were too listened to. "Don't go off showing that to anyone but those tonight and those that prove themselves to you worthy to see it, legendaries will be very picky on who sees the proof that proves their existence. Remember that." With that the photographer turns around and leaves, however he leaves one thing behind, it is a picture, the back is written to Ethan, just his name. He turns around the photo and sees a picture of all three of them, in their hybrid form and having their Pokemon out, meadow was the location but he could remember where it was. He looks up to yell at the person leaving, but he was gone already, so he puts the photo into the pocket that contains the Ocarina. He also turns around and runs after the ground not knowing just what they were heading into, only that they now know the location of the Ship, hidden in a cove near Fuchsia City and of all things the Soul badge. However they soon encounter Riku again. Looking agitated.

Ethan's hearing picks up the last part of the conversation, "It seems that Miss Nicole has escaped our grasp, however," At this moment, as Ethan picked up speed and raced to where the group had gathered. "As you have all helped in defeated a major Rocket installation, as well as revealing that one of Team Rocket's leaders was in fact the Saffron Gym Leader Sabrina, and your heroic efforts of trying and stopping her, I am herby authorized to present you all with the Marsh Badge, symbol that you have beaten the Saffron Gym Leader, but this time, it seems to be quite literally that you beat her, right out of town." He laughs which soon had most everyone laughing for a second; he then gave each one of them the badge.

Suddenly Kyle who had been complaining of feeling hot for most of the evening since the huge attack happened, suddenly burst into a bright white light and grew. Meaning that within a few moments a western style looking dragon, standing on hind legs with a muzzle full of sharp teeth and two blunt like horns atop his head, as well as two leathery wings which were a brownish color, the rest a red tone. Kyle had evolved into a Charizard. A lot of experience had occurred during the battle so it was not surprising for it to happen, especially since they swapped a few Pokemon to battle during the Attack to get Robert out of that strange business building, that was what seemed to be the old Head Quarters for some type of Anti-Hybrid Rocket organization, so from that battle, along with this one, he had evolved.

After Kyle had evolved outside near the wall, that would most likely be abandoned now, the group of about ten trainers head off and soon reach along with entering the Pokemon Center, right away upon entering the Center they were seized verbally upon by police officers who questioned all of them about the fight against Sabrina, sometimes repeating questions or rewording a question, trying to make sure that they were not really Rockets, and were indeed regular trainers that got caught in the cross fires of this explosive battle. Of course all of them left out the parts of who the rocket hybrid leaders were and whether they escaped or were captured, much to the disappointment of the police force, after all, a Ninetales was a creature that was very much feared still in some areas of the world as a bringer of mishap and troubles. After about an hour of this kind of questioning from the officers, the ten Pokemon Trainers were released and finally they were able to finally get to bed and some well deserved sleep. All of them having had a most eventful evening, and so all of them were looking forward to some peace now as they traveled on the road later that morning.

VT: Well, their you go, chapter 43, I would like to point out that Sabrina being part of Team Rocket was in fact not my idea, it was gleaned from a website that talked of a Special Manga that had her along with a few other Gym Leaders at high ranking Team Rocket members, so I deicide to include that in for the excitement that it would bring. After all, who would expect a Gym Leader working for Team Rocket?
