A/N—Well I probably lost everyone that was reading due to the massive gap in updating. The reason for that gap was that way back I got tied up with end of the year papers and finals, and then…well I just forgot, so I hope everyone can forgive me…So I keep you any longer here is the next chapter!

To Manage a Rescue
It had been some time since Jason had fought with Cain, who now sat on the side of the road. After his defeat Cain had been seething with thoughts of revenge. He was not upset that he had been defeated, he had been before, but was upset that he had been defeated so easily. He replayed the fight over and over in his head; how Steelinx threw everything at that Blastoise, but was simply batted away with another attack. The more Cain had thought about it the angrier he had gotten, and he had been thinking about for a few hours now. Steelinx had been able to beat most opponents put against it, but that kid and his Blastoise had beaten it like it was Wurmple. Cain sat in the dirt letting his hatred and lust for revenge fester. His concentration was broken when a pair of feet appeared in front of him. He looked up to see a woman with short blonde hair and dark purple eyes. She wore knee-high leather boots, a short skirt, and a sleeveless zip-up vest, all colored a scarlet red. The one thing Cain noticed the most, however, were her extremely protrusive breasts.
"What do you want?" Cain barked, not really caring.
"I'm here to make you a proposition." The woman said, "My name is Bonnie, and I'm from a group called Omega Team. We witnessed your battle earlier today, and we see great potential in you."
"Saw my battle? How?"
"Look behind." Bonnie said. "At the Zubat hanging in the tree."
Cain turned and saw it. "What about it?" Before Bonnie could answer, he saw it. The Zubat was fake. "What is it?"
"It's a camera." Bonnie answered, "Our top-notch scientist developed them. We use them for various objectives, like watching you battle."
"That answers that, what do you want me with me?" Cain asked.
"Like I said we want to recruit you. More specific, to become my partner."
"But, why?"
"You have the personality we need. You're ruthless, cunning, and obviously a strong trainer. Also, if pointed in the right direction, your anger could be put to great use. We need you not only to increase our numbers, but to help with the boy that beat you."
"What about him?" Cain asked, suddenly interested.
"He and his girlfriend are potential threats to our plans."
Cain stood up at this point and faced Bonnie.
"But how can help with whatever his name?"
"Simple, your want for revenge will drive you to beat him and that's what we want. Now will you join me?"
"What would I have to do?"
"Simply shake my hand in agreement."
"One more question. What exactly is your purpose?"
"To be honest I don't know the complete details. Just that anyone who helps in our leaders victory will be given immeasurable rewards."
Cain stood there and thought over the proposition. Bonnie stood there patiently waiting for a reply.
"I should mention," Bonnie said, "that if you agree, you leave behind everything that you are up to this point. Your World League challenge will be over."
Cain stood in silence still thinking. "So…immeasurable rewards, huh? And the power to defeat anyone?" Cain took a deep breath and held out his hand.
"Good!" Bonnie said and took his hand. "From now on you will be known as Clyde, and you start immediately.
"Really? What's the mission?" Cain asked getting excited.
"Our first mission is to eliminate Jason Marin and Miz Miaru."

Many miles down the road (and sometime later) Jason, Miz, and their newest companion Danny walked towards Shownee City.
"Hey, Danny…" Jason said, "I forgot to ask. I know you mainly do the contest, but have you thought about challenging the gyms?"
"Actually…" she answered. "I did challenge the gyms in Sinnoh and Hoenn while was doing the contest too."
"Really?" Jason said, moderately surprised."How far did you get?" Miz asked.
"I got all the badges, but didn't get past the tournament."
At this point a red beam came out of Danny's bag and hit the ground in front of them. An Eevee then appeared in front of them wagging its tail.
"Sorry…" Danny said, "she does this from time to time. Apparently she doesn't like pokeballs to much." She held out her arms and the Eevee hopped into them.
"You know," Miz said, looking at her watch, "if we're lucky we might reach Shownee before night fall."
"Good!" Jason yelled, "I'm ready for my first gym battle!" He darted away from the girls and started to run down the road.
"Jason!" Danny yelled.
He kept on running.
"We're gonna have to chase him aren't we?" Danny said to Miz, putting Eevee down. "I know you don't like it, but I need you to go back in for a while."
Eevee nodded its head and returned to its ball.
"Come on," Miz said, "lets start fol—" she did not finish the sentence. Up ahead the road had collapsed and Jason fell into a hole.
"What the—Jason!" Danny yelled and ran forward, Miz following behind her.
The sound of a engine rang through the air and the trees started to bend in a strong wind. Danny and Miz stopped as a dust cloud rose. A helicopter came out from behind the trees and hovered over the hole; a loud laughter then came from the machine.
"What is that?" Danny yelled.
A net dropped from the helicopter and into the hole, and quickly came up with an unconscious Jason.
"Jason!" Miz yelled, "Whoever you are stop this!"
Laughter once again rang through the air.
"This is what you get…" said a female hanging out of the helicopter.
"…for messing with Omega Team!" said a male, hanging out of the other side.
Miz recognized the male. "Hey!" she yelled, "you're Cain, the guy Jason beat earlier today!"
"I am no longer Cain Bronx! I have joined Omega Team!"
"And together," the woman said, "we are Bonnie and Clyde!"
"Now I can get revenge on him!" Clyde said, indicating Jason. "And then we're coming after you Miz!"
The pair went back into the helicopter and gunned the engine. The copter turned around and flew off into the distance.
"Omega Team?!" Danny yelled, clearly panicked. "I've never heard of them!"
"No time to explain!" Miz said, "We need to get Jason back! Danny do you have a pokemon that fly's and big enough you can ride on?"
"Yeah."
"Ok, we're gonna follow them!" Miz brought out a pokeball and yelled: "Windy, big problem!"
A large green Flygon appeared.
"Dragonair!" Danny yelled.
The long blue dragon appeared.
"Windy, I'm gonna get on you and we need to follow that helicopter, ok?" Miz explained.
The Flygon nodded and knelt down for Miz to get on, who positioned herself in front of the wings and wrapped her arms around its neck.
"Dragonair, we're gonna do the same thing." Danny said.
The dragon gave a strange mew and Danny climbed on its back and wrapped hers around its body.
"Ok, lets go!" Miz yelled.
The dragons lifted off the ground and went high into the air. They quickly followed in the direction of the helicopter.

Jason did not stay unconscious for very long. He awoke inside the net completely disoriented. He quickly realized his situation and started to struggle against the net. His limbs started to cramp from the awkward position, however his left had been forced close to the zipper of backpack. He maneuvered his fingers to slowly push it open. It took some concentration but he was eventually able to fit his hand through a small a opening. His fingers closed around the first pokeball he felt and brought it out of the bag.
Just be able to fly… Jason thought. He looked at the ball to see a sticker with a pair of fly wings on it. "Perfect!" he said aloud, "Yanma, emergency!"
The ball opened and the large insect appeared flying next to him. It immediately realized its master's situation and started to tug on the net. After no success it stopped and looked at Jason with worried eyes.
"Yanma, listen," Jason said, "I need you to find two girls. One has long purple hair and the other has long silvery-white hair. Find them and bring them to me. Hurry!"
The Yanma quickly flew off from the helicopter.
00000
They had lost sight of the helicopter quickly even though the dragons were trying their best to keep up with it. Danny was going out of her mind she had never had to anything like this before. The most she had ever had to worry about was what new maneuvers Nikki had come up with for a contest or that she might run into a Spinarak. The most distressing decision she had to make latly was whether to focus on contest of gyms in the Cosheen region (contest eventually won). But now, now she was chasing down two criminals that kidnapped one of new friends.
"Danny!" Miz shouted.
Danny came out of her train of thought and looked over at the other girl. She was pointing ahead of them and Danny turned to look. Speeding towards them was a large Yanma. Danny braced herself anticipating an attack from the enemy. The girls had the dragons stop and hover as the bug came to them. It stopped in front of them and examined both girls intently, and then it started to buzz and twitch its head. Danny's dragon mewed and nodded to its master. Danny just stared not understanding. The Dragonair mewed and twitched head towards the Yanma.
"Oh…" Danny said, "it wants us to follow it."
The Dragonair nodded to the Yanam, and it sped off in the direction it had come. The girls quickly followed, Danny slightly smiling for understanding what it wanted.
00000
Jason's situation had done nothing but degrade since Yanma had left. It had been some fifteen minutes and he had squirmed so much that he had gotten himself into an impossible position. The only part of his body that could really move was his head, and every other part of him had become numb with cramps. He tried to gather as much information about his captors as he could, but all he could observe was that for a helicopter the engine was not very loud. He had been trying to hear his captors talking but was only able to catch muffled words, until now.
"Bonnie!" a male voice said loudly, "three bogies coming from behind!"
Jason immediately recognized the voice as Cain's (Clyde's) and anger flared through him. He struggled against the rope even though he knew it was pointless.
"Then do something. I'm driving." Bonnie said.
"Right…Scizor!" There was brief pause before Clyde spoke again. "Scizor, stop those people following us! At any cost!"
The red, metal, insect flew out of the cockpit. It flew towards three figures in the distance.
00000
As soon as the Scizor left the helicopter it used Double Team to create copies of itself. The two dragons immediately went on guard.
"Yanam," Miz yelled, "go and stick close to Jason."
The Yanma sped off and flew past the Scizors, who ignored it, over to Jason. The bug sat itself on the net to act as guardian.
"Good, girl." Jason said.
He turned to look at the girls and that's when he saw coming. It was too fast for him to say anything all he could do was watch horror. From behind the girls the real Scizor was barreling towards them. Its left hammer-claw started to glow reading a Mach Punch.
"Miz!" Jason yelled, "Miz, behind—"
It was too late. The punch hit Windy square in the middle of the back. The dragon shrieked in pain and lurched forward. The force of the sent Miz flying forward off the dragon's back into the air. She hung in the air for a moment and then started to fall towards the ground. Her Flygon dived trying to catch her. It outstretched its short arms trying to reach her. They both fell with extreme speed and disappeared into the tall trees, unable to be seen if the catch was made. Jason stared in shock for moment until his attention was drawn to Danny's yelling. He watched her dodge, duck, and roll away from the numerous punched being thrown from the fake Scizor.
"Dragonair," Danny yelled, "get rid of these guys, use Screech!"
The dragon opened its mouth and a terrible screech emanated from it. The Scizor disappeared but one due to the sound. The shriek stopped and the Scizor hovered and shook its head trying to recover.
"Time for a trump card!" Jason heard Bonnie say.
The helicopter slowed and turned around. Jason heard two doors swing open and two large gatling guns fell down on either side of him.
Oh, my God! They're really trying to kill her!" Jason thought.
Danny saw the guns and had Dragonair fly towards the helicopter before they could fire. They started before she got close. The dragon tried to be hard target be doing the same maneuvers as it did with Scizor.
"Dragonair!" Danny yelled, "Use Ice Beam on those guns!"
The dragon did a barrel roll and fired the frosty-white beam. It hit the gun on the left was frozen in ice. The other gun, however, kept firing. The dragon kept barrel rolling to get out of the guns turn radius.
"Yanma!" Jason yelled, "You see that gun there, use Aerial Ace and cut it away from the helicopter."
The bugs wings started to glow and rocketed towards the gun. It flew past the gun as if it had not done anything, but immediately stopped firing, sparked, and flew away from the helicopter to the ground.
"Good girl, Yanma, come on—ah!"
The Yanma had been struck by with a surprise Mach Punch from above by the now recovered Scizor.
"Quick, return!" Jason yelled.
The red pokeball beam shot out at a great length and recovered the bug.
"Dragonair, freeze 'em" Danny yelled.
The ice beam fired from the dragon's mouth again, but the Scizor was to fast and it quickly moved out of the way. Jason noticed it had a sinister look on its face as the helicopter turned around and started to fly away. The Scizor quickly flew up next to Jason and held its claw at the rope that held him from the copter.
"Oh, shit!" Danny exclaimed, "Dragonair, hurry catch him."
The Scizor clipped the rope and flew to head-off Dragonair. Danny quickly formed a plan in her head.
Ok, she thought, I'm either gonna be a hero or kill myself. She bit her lower lip and yelled: "Dragonair, time for the Ice Slide maneuver!" She then rolled of the dragons back. She aimed herself downward and narrowed her body to faster to Jason. Her small frame helped in reducing wind resistance and was able to fall faster. She outstretched her hands and wrapped her fingers around the rope.
"Great…" Jason said, "now we both die!"
"Not so fast." Danny said calmly. She looked up at Dragonair who had just slammed Scizor away with its tail. It then lowered its head and shot an Ice Beam towards her. She flipped herself around as if she was going to land on her feet. The Ice Beam expanded and formed a sheet of ice slanting downwards to the forest. Danny landed on the ice sheet, Jason in tow. She skied down to the end of the sheet and jumped off. At this point Jason had started to yell in fear. Dragonair flew to Danny and caught and caught her and Jason in its tail. It stopped and gently put Danny on its back and kept Jason wrapped in its tail. Danny brought out a small knife from her bag and cut through Jason's ropes. He crawled out and sat behind Danny on the dragon's back. Their brief moment of relief was gone when the helicopter appeared in front of them.
"Not so fast, Jason Marin!" Bonnie said, hanging out of the machine. "We have orders to bring you to the boss!"
Dragonair turn around to escape, but was blocked by the Scizor.
"Now, I can have my revenge on you!" Clyde said, hanging out of the other side.
"You're dumber than I thought Cain!" Jason yelled, "I beat you once and you go evil. C'mon that's a little extreme!"
"Shut-up, you! Scizor, take care of the girl!" Clyde commanded, and he and Bonnie went back into the helicopter.
Scizor readied a Mach Punch, both its claws glowing.
"Dragonbreath!"
The Scizor was engulfed in purple flames and was sent sprawling towards the helicopter. It went through the front glass and landed on top of Bonnie and Clyde. The control panel of the machine started to spark and sizzle, and then the helicopter started to wobble. The tail engine exploded and the machine plummeted to the ground. It made a terrible whining sound as it disappeared into the trees with a loud crash. Danny and Jason stared in amazement at what had just happened. They turned in the direction of the attack to see a girl with purple hair riding a green dragon.
"Miz!" Danny and Jason exclaimed.
"Hey, guys." Miz said nonchalantly. "You didn't think I'd go down that easily did you? No pun intended." She gave a wry smile and they all burst out laughing.

They all slept peacefully that night under the stars on the side of the road. Dragonair and Windy insisted on staying out of their pokeballs for the night, and stood vigilantly watching over the three humans as they slept.
