Chapter 7: A miracle or two
"Where did you come from?" Jessie asked the tiny Pokemon.
"Eevee? There you are!" A woman said as she walked up to them. "Hey, what are you guys doing in here?" She asked the four Rockets curiously.
"We can't find the way out and my wife is in labor!" Butch told the women while standing up to face her. Completely unaware of what he had just let slip.
"Oh! Well, come on, it's this way!" The women said while leading the way out.
"Eevee!" The Eevee said happily as it followed her.
"Come on, Cass," Butch said as he scooped her up in his arms and carried her.
"Did he say 'wife'?" Jessie asked James quietly.
"I think so," James replied just as quietly.
"Oh, thanks a lot!" Butch told the women as they reached the exit of the cave.
"No problem. I know this cave like the back of my hand. The name's Maggie and my car is parked right over there," she said as she pointed out a blue SUV a few yards away. "Need a lift to the hospital?" She asked them sweetly.
"That would be lovely. I can walk, Butch," Cassidy said as Butch put her down.
"I have three kids of my own, honey," Maggie told Cassidy with a chuckle as she held her arm on the way to the car.
"We'll catch up, okay?" Jessie said to Butch and Cassidy. "Let's go find Meowth," she told James as she looked around for their Pokemon partner.
"What in the world took you guys so long?! Did you find the Eevee?" Meowth asked them as he snuck up behind them.
"No. But we did find something interesting," Jessie replied with a smile.
"What?" Meowth asked her curiously.
"Come on, I'll explain on the way," Jessie replied as her and James started walking toward the town about a mile away.
