"Brock, don't run into that tree!" Misty yelled, but it was too late. Brock had not been watching where he was going (does he ever?) and had bumped into a large oak tree.
"Ouch, thanks for the heads up," he said sarcastically.
"Where are we going?" Ash asked, looking around. There was nothing but trees, trees, and more trees. Oh, and some trees, did I mention that?
"WHAT? What do you mean 'where are we going'? YOU'RE THE ONE LEADING US!" Misty shouted, red from anger.
"Calm down, I've got it under control!" He said, raising his hands up as if to block her.
"Well I SUGGEST you find out WHERE we're going, or I'll GIVE you something for you to control!" She yelled, holding up her fist.
"Geez… Ladies…" He muttered and rolled his eyes.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" She asked.
"Er-Nothing!" He said quickly.
"Yeah right…" She replied, keeping a close eye on him. They walked for what seemed like hours, in tall weeds and thick brush.
"I think I know where we are!" Brock shouted suddenly, making Ash and Misty jump.
"You do? Where?" Misty asked excitedly.
"If my calculations are correct, we are-in the middle of nowhere…" He grinned. She slapped him on the head.
"Haha very funny," she said.
"Don't do that, Brock, I really thought you knew," Ash said with disappointment.
"I'm sorry," he apologized. They walked into a little area where there was just a plain of short grass, with no trees at all. They decided to a take a break there, when they heard a snap of a twig of in the distance.
"What was that?" Ash asked. Brock sighed.
"We all know it's Team Rocket," he said.
"Damn it Meowth, you blew our cover!" Jessie said and jumped out from behind a bush.
"No matter. Prepare for trouble!" She said, turning a deep shade of red.
"Make it double! Heheh…" James said, also turning red. Those lines brought back memories of last night to them. Ash, Misty and Brock were confused.
"What's wrong? Why are you red?" Ash asked.
"Er-none of your business!" Jessie said and whipped out a Pokeball. "Go Arbok! Wrap Pikachu up!" She said, chucking the ball into the air. There was a blinding white flash, and a huge purple cobra hissed violently.
"Go Weezing! Smokescreen!" James yelled and threw a Pokeball out as well. There was another flash, and a rather large purple meteor-looking thing with fangs appeared. He growled and thick black smog exploded from it.
"Pikachu?" Ash coughed, his eyes burning from the poisonous gas. When the smoke finally cleared, Pikachu was missing.
"Nice try, twerps, but we've finally won!" Jessie laughed. Pikachu was being imprisoned by Arbok's coils.
"So long, suckas!" Meowth waved at them.
"I've got to stop them! Pikachu! Thunder shock now!" Ash yelled. Pikachu grinned and squeaked, sending electric shocks out of its cheeks and electrocuting Arbok. The snake hissed and let go of it.
"Now thunder shock Team Rocket!" Ash shouted. Pikachu nodded and jumped on top of Jessie's head.
"Get off! WAIT! Don't do it!" She begged. Sparks started to fly out of its cheeks.
"Don't listen to her, Pikachu! Shock 'em!" He yelled.
"No, you don't understand! PLEASE don't electrocute me! I can't!" She cried.
"She's telling the truth! Don't do it!" James shouted.
"Why shouldn't I?" Ash asked, still wanting to fry them.
"Just don't! Please!" She begged, starting to cry. Ash was confused.
"I don't believe you! Pikachu! Do it!" He yelled.
"Oh come on, just say it already! Or I will," James said to her. She took a deep breath.
"I'm-pregnant!" She said. Ash, Misty and Brock all gasped. Pikachu squeaked out of surprise and jumped off of her head.
"What?" Brock asked, not believing his ears.
"It's true. I just found out this morning," she said.
"Oh my, and we almost electrocuted you! We're so sorry," Misty apologized. Ash started laughing.
"HA HA HAH! Who's the daddy?" He asked, rolling on the ground with laughter.
"…Isn't it obvious?" Jessie said.
"Wait… I thought you hated James?" He said, still cracking up.
"Well apparently not if she let him get-" Brock started.
"SHUT UP!" Jessie interrupted him before he could say anything too embarrassing.
"We feel terrible for almost-we're sorry…" Misty apologized again. Meanwhile Meowth snuck up behind them.
"It's fine, you didn't know," Jessie forgave them, spotting Meowth sneaking up behind Pikachu.
"So you guys can't attack us!" James grinned, crossing his arms.
"We can still attack YOU," Ash said and threw out a Pokeball. Charmander, an orange lizard like Pokemon, came out.
"Not if I'm holding onto her!" He said and clung onto Jessie.
"Grr, you've got a point, but you can't stay like that forever!" Ash huffed.
"Oh yes I can!" He grinned more. Meowth grabbed Pikachu and took off with it, tossing it to Jessie. She caught it and they all ran away.
"Well that's not good!" Ash said. The TRio had never been happier in their lives. They actually got away with snagging Pikachu.
"Oh this is our best plan ever!" Jessie beamed, holding the tormented Pikachu in her arms.
"And it wasn't even planned," James winked. She blushed.
"And Meowth can smell a raise in our salary!" Meowth chirped. They stopped for a break from running.
"Oh James! Thank you! Thanks to you they can't attack us! I love you!" She said happily and hugged him. He smiled and hugged her back.
"Just this morning you were mad that I got you knocked up," he said.
"We better get movin', they might follow us," Meowth suggested and they took off again.
"PIKACHU!" Ash called.
"They're obviously gone," Brock said.
"No! They got away!" He cried, collapsing onto the ground, crying.
Will Ash get back Pikachu? Or will TR be promoted to Executives? Let's hope not, because we all know that from the B/W anime they do NOT look good in black... X3
