Chapter 2: Baby makes three
"What are you doing in here, losers?" Butch asked the stunned duo while getting up and dusting himself off.
"I ask you the same . . . hey, where's Cassidy?" Jessie asked him, noticing his blonde haired partner was no where to be found.
"What do you care?" Cassidy's voice said in the darkness of the cave.
"I don't!" Jessie replied bitterly. "Where did my flashlight go?" She continued while looking for the flashlight in the near pitch black cave. "Oh, great, it's broken! Good one James, you dropped it and now it's broken!" Jessie scolded him as she found the light and tried to turn it on.
"So what are you two doing in here?" Cassidy asked them again.
"For your information, we followed a very rare Pokemon in," Jessie replied while trying to get the flashlight to turn on.
"You wouldn't happen to be talking about the Eevee, would you?" Butch asked them flatly.
"How did you know?" Jessie asked him, surprised.
"Because that's how we ended up in here ourselves. Turns out there is a whole flock of them in here," Cassidy answered her with a tinge of laughter in her voice.
"It's so dark in here!" Jessie said while banging the flashlight against the palm of her hand, causing it to flick on. "Ha! There we go," she said with a sigh of relief. Just as the flashlight blinked on, Cassidy quickly stepped behind Butch.
"What's wrong with you, Cassidy?" Jessie asked her curiously.
"N-nothing . . . ," Cassidy replied nervously. "Shouldn't you guys be going?" Cassidy asked them impatiently.
"Why? What are you trying to hide?" Jessie asked while shining the light on her. "And why are you wearing pants?" She added while noticing that Cassidy wasn't wearing her usual uniform that consisted of a very short dress and thigh high white boots.
"Okay . . . ," Cassidy sighed and stepped out from behind Butch to reveal that she was pregnant.
"Oh . . . so you got knocked up, huh?" Jessie asked her casually.
"What does it look like?" Cassidy replied sarcastically.
"Is that why your hiding out in this cave?" James asked after being silent for a while.
"No, genius, we can't find the way out!" Butch replied annoyed at the dumb question.
"What do you mean, 'you can't find the way out'?" Jessie asked them panicky.
"We've been trying to get out of here since yesterday," Cassidy admitted softly.
"What?!" Jessie and James screamed.
