Yeah, this is Chapter 10, don't know how long this story'll be.

As soon as Paul heard J and Meowth's voice, he began sprinting to find Ash and the gang. Now, he's running through the heavy snow and hail, trying to reach the lab. When he does get there, he knocks. Some voices are heard and the door opens, revealing Diana in her white lab coat, with no shoes, or socks.

"Paul, what is it," Diana asks.

Paul catches his breath and then speaks, "Where's Dawn?"

"She left to get James and Meowth, after the huge talk between the two, I thought it was pretty obvious you hated her," Diana says.

Paul looks inside and sees a man getting his shoes on, the face concealed.

"Is there a problem," Paul asks.

Diana nervously says, "No, not a problem."

The man is gone and Paul shrugs.

"Thank you," he says.

He then runs as Diana slams the door shut.

"Wrong there," Paul thinks.

He gets to the Seaking Hotel and to Ash, Dawn, and Brock's room. He knocks and Ash appears with messy hair, sleepy eyes, and pajamas.

"Paul, listen, can this wait until the morning, it's 5 in the morning," Ash says.

"No, it's about Dawn," Paul says.

Ash lets out a big yawn.

"I'm sure she's alright," Ash says.

When he goes to close it, Paul puts his foot in the doorway.

"Seriously, it's important, is the blind one in there," Paul asks.

"No, he was sleeping over with Diana," Ash says.

Paul blinks and realizes who the man was and why Diana had no shoes and socks on. He then shakes his head fast.

"Then you have to help me," Paul says.

"Paul, even if I was fully awake, I wouldn't help you," Ash says.

Paul sighs and when Ash tries to close it, but Paul again keeps it blocked.

"You got me there, but seriously, it's about Dawn," Paul says.

"Why would you care about Dawn anyway? It was kind of evident after you told her off like that that you hated her," Ash says.

"OK, that's twice I've been told that, but seriously, this is important," Paul says.

Ash sighs and says, "Paul, it can wait until later, trust me."

He closes the door and Paul stands there, head down, as a single tear falls down.

"Ash, please, Dawn's in trouble," Paul says.

The door slowly opens and Ash has a new look on his face. Paul looks up and his normal expression's back.

"Did you just call me by name," Ash asks.

"Did I just call you by your name," Paul asks.

Ash nods and then Paul nods back. Ash offers a hand to be high-fived with a smile.

"Tell me on the way," he says.

Paul sighs, and smiles, but doesn't shake the hand.

"Let's go," Paul says.

"It's a start," Ash says with a sigh as he writes up a note, putting it on a desk.

SCENE CHANGE

"Meowth," Jessie says sadly.

"We'll have to split up, Team Rocket, you get Hunter J, Mundo, me and you'll get the Galactic HQ," Dawn says.

"Right," they said in unison.

Team Rocket started swimming in some direction. Mundo and Dawn headed towards the cliff.

"Lucario, ready," Mundo asks.

It nods and jumps up, way up, up so far as the roof of the HQ.

"Empty," Mundo asks.

He comes back down and nods.

"You go first Dawn, I'll go next," Mundo says.

She nods and holds unto Lucario as the fly up. When Dawn looks down, Mundo's gone, and Lucario is as well.

"Did they just ditch me," Dawn asks.

She shrugs and walks over to a door, opening it, and going down the stairs inside. At the bottom of the stairs, it's empty. She comes to a random that leads to stairs: empty. She runs to the top and barely opens the door, voices are heard.

"How did it go," one asks.

"Strangely, it was without a hitch," another says.

"And you," the first asks.

"Bought it easily," a third one answers, female.

"Giovanni, you raised two special operatives, to buy a large trick just to lead them back to Mercury City, and J, how could I forget, you and your massive hologram," the first one says excitedly.

"Thank you," the third one says, obviously J.

"Toast," the first one says.

Glasses clack and eventually, someone speaks.

"Hm, you know, if you want to hide, try not making it so obvious," the first one says.

"Huh," J and Giovanni say in unison.

"Please, come out," the first one says.

Dawn is caught by surprise and shock as she opens the door. J gets out her stone pistol upon seeing it's Dawn.

"J, please, no need to be rude to a guest," the first one orders.

She growls and lowers her gun.

"Hm, you're with those brats who always beat my operatives, right," Giovanni asks.

"Y-yeah," Dawn hesitantly answers.

With a sigh, the first one says, "Pardon J, she's a bit trigger happy. I believe you've met."

J growls as Dawn growls back.

"That's a yes, this is Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket," the first one says.

"Should we be telling her our names," Giovanni whispers/asks.

The first nods and adds on, "I am Cyrus, leader of Team Galactic."

"Then you're the one I'm looking for," Dawn says.

"As I expected, now, what's your name?"

"Like I'll tell you."

"I told you mine, you could at least be courteous and tell me yours."

She looks away.

"It's Dawn," J speaks. "Her name is Dawn."

"Thank you, J," Cyrus adds. "Now, Dawn, tell me, what use might I, an international crime boss, be to an ordinary, average, ten year old girl like you?"

"I need you to help me with something," Dawn says.

"What might that be," Cyrus asks.

"To help get somebody back," she says, sad, looking down.

"So to help heal a broken heart."

"Pathetic," J says.

"You would think that, you and your black heart," Dawn says.

"Ooh," Giovanni taunts.

"Quiet," J says angrily.

"Now, now, ladies calm down, Dawn, I'll be able to help," Cyrus says.

J looks over to Cyrus with a look of shock.

"What," she asks.

"Relax J, I have it all figured out, after all, it's just business," Cyrus says.

J nods and then looks away. She then suddenly looks back with a shock look and fires her stone pistol at him, which Cyrus moves.

"Seriously Cyrus, if that is your real name, which it isn't, do you really think we'd fall for that trick," Giovanni asks. "We were just playing, right J?"

"Uh, yeah, I totally knew," J says.

"Liar," the voice that only J hears says.

She then fires behind Dawn, as a shape moves. The shape comes by Cyrus, becoming visible: Lucario. Cyrus then clicks a button and becomes Mundo.

"You," J yells.

"Mundo Kindo," Giovanni says. "I've heard about you, what would think if Dawn here knew about you?"

"I don't know, but what I do know, J's job is one/fifth done," Mundo says. "Well, almost."

"What," J asks.

Mundo smiles and chuckles evilly as J recognizes him.

"You're my supplier."

"We, actually," Giovanni says.

"Mundo, what," Dawn asks.

"Sorry Dawn, it's just business," Mundo says.

Dawn growls and runs on the desk, jumping through the window. As she falls down, she hears a voice.

"Bi!"

SCENE CHANGE

Paul and Ash are running towards the docks, hoping to reach the boat. When they arrive, they just missed it.

"No," Paul yells.

"So, wait, Dawn went to the Team Galactic base to try and get you back, but Meowth ended up being captured. The provider who is paying J is unknown, but he is paying her to get me, you, Dawn, Brock, James, and Jessie. So now she's in trouble, and you want to save her," Ash asks.

"Yes," Paul yells again.

James and Jessie suddenly swim up to the pier, panting. They climb onto the docks and lay in front of Paul and Ash, breathing very hard.

"I can prove it too," Paul says.

Ash laughs a bit before kneeling front of Team Rocket. Pikachu speaks first.

"Pika!"

Team Rocket suddenly jump up in shock as they go a far ways down the pier, holding each other. They then look and then let go, giving each other the cold shoulder.

"We just got some help," Ash says.

Paul also smiles, even giggling a bit.

"Was that a laugh," Ash asks.

Paul gets back to his usual expression.

"No," he says.

"Come on, that so a laugh."

"What are you talking about?"

"Oh, Dawn's going to flip when she hears this."

Paul sighs.

Chapter 10, over. Where did Dawn go? Who said "Bi!"? Did Paul laugh? Why am I asking questions you don't know? Find out, next time (but the last one, that's classified).
