Here's another update! I think it's sort of, kind of, sort of easy to guess what's going to happen now. But, who cares! It needs to happen for the sake of being consistent.

Fang: Roza does not own Pokémon no matter how much she would like to.

Me: Thanks, Fang.

Chapter four: Ash

"Pika!"

"Pikachu!" I opened my eyes and saw both Pikachus sitting on my chest. And neither seemed very happy.

"Pikachu, what's the matter?" I yawned, sitting up and stretching once the two Pokémon had settled in my lap. They pointed to Lily's empty bed. "She's probably downstairs cooking breakfast for us." The room door slammed open.

"She is not downstairs at all!" Iris declared. Cilan sat up as well at this.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"The Pikachus and Axew woke me up first. When I realized Lily was gone, I searched the entire house and the yard. But she isn't here! Even Uniswan is gone. It's not like her to leave and not take Pikachuett with her."

"Ew, ew! Axew, ew!" We looked at Axew and saw him pointing up at a camera.

"That's right! Certain rooms and parts of the yard have cameras in them for security purposes. One is bound to show where she went!" Cilan, both Pikachus, Axew, and I followed Iris downstairs. We stopped in front of Mrs. Smith.

"Iris, is everything alright? You seem worried," she replied.

"Mrs. Smith, can we see the camera footage from last night? It's about Lily."

"Of course. You can view them downstairs in the basement." We thanked her and made our way downstairs to the computer room. Iris sat before the many screens and started typing.

"Watch for when she gets out of bed. We can find her easier from there," she said. I looked at the screen for the PokéRoom as she rewound the tapes. I then saw Lily walking backwards.

"Iris, there she is," I said, tapping the screen. She pushed play, and we watched Lily walk outside to Uniswan.

"She must've heard Uniswan outside and went out to check on her," Cilan guessed.

We watched her quickly mount Uniswan and dodge a blast. She seemed to talk to someone for a few minutes. Then a pair of claws grabbed her and her Pokémon and pulled them away.

"Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking?" I asked Iris and Cilan. They nodded.

"Team Rocket," we said together.

"That camera points to the backyard. Their machine must have left a trail in the woods," Iris pointed out. We nodded and ran outside; Iris and I each pulled out a PokéBall. "Help us out, Dragonite!"

"You too, Charizard!" The two Pokémon came out. "Can you guys help us find where Team Rocket took Lily?" Both nodded and flew away.

~Lily POV~

"Come on, Uniswan! Hit the same spot again with Iron Horn!" Her horn turned black, and she slammed into the metal door. Nothing.

"Swan." She shook her head as her horn went back to normal.

"Oh, Uniswan. Take a break." I helped her lower to the floor. "You did really well."

"Uniswan, swan." I reached into my bag and pulled out a pink and white treat.

"Here you go. A Unisweet." She lipped it up out of my hand; I rubbed her neck as she ate it.

"Why don't you just give up, Twerpett?" Jessie asked from the screen on the wall beside the door.

"Because then Uniswan will be in danger. Her power wasn't meant to be misused by the likes of you or your boss."

" Uniswan." I smiled as she rose back to her feet with confidence.

"Alright. Uniswan, use Fire Blast on Jessie's face!"

"What?!" the woman cried, obviously forgetting she isn't actually in the room with me right now. Fire shot out of my Pokémon's horn and destroyed the screen. The after shock destroyed the four cameras in the room that are always watching me. I mounted Uniswan quickly.

"Not again. Why do you keep destroying our equipment?" Meowth complained as he stupidly walked into the cell.

"Uniswan, use Quick Attack!" She charged Meowth, knocking him out with her horn. "Good girl. Now let's get out of here." She ran quickly down the hall.

"Catch that runaway Uniswan and her pesky trainer!" I heard James yell behind me. Uniswan quickly ran down halls and turned corners to find an exit, but she skidded to a stop in the end. A dead end. We're trapped.

"It's the end of the line for you." I turned Uniswan around and saw Meowth holding a hand cannon, his paw close to the trigger.

"Come quietly, and maybe we'll let you stay with her for one more day," Jessie lied.

"Pikachu!" I heard two very welcome voices say. Two thunderbolts destroyed the big window above and behind me. "Pika, Pikachu!"

"Oh no! There's two of them?!" James exclaimed. Uniswan flew up, and I grabbed the two Pikachus as she flew out of the window. "Hey, get back here! We weren't finished with you!"

"I believe Pikachu and Pikachuett would beg to differ!"

This one is slightly shorter because I needed the chapter to end right there. So, I'm very sorry. A new era in this story begins the next chapter, which is why this chapter had to end right now.

Reviews are greatly appreciated.
