The new champion Adam, still in the hospital bed after being burned by a "Team Rocket" member's Flareon that attacked him at the party. Standing next to him was Seth, Adam's lucario. Levi, the girl who is waiting for the chance to defeat Adam and take her revenge for losing against him in the first round, as well Alpha, the lucario Adam jumped in front of to take the flamethrower for. They were talking about what to do about "Team Rocket."
"All we know about them is that they're called 'Team Rocket,' what they look like, and what they want. What we don't know is what their final goal is, where to find them, and how they could break into one of the most secure parties ever without a trace." Adam said in frustration.
"Well they would be somewhere in Kanto.. Or Johto." Levi said slowly.
"What!?" yelled Seth. "You know about these guys!? You need to tell the police now!"
"I would have but I didn't see them! I still didn't even know it was them till he said so!" Levi said, pointing at Alpha.
Alpha looks over to see all three of them looking at him and jumps. "Umm," Alpha says nervously.
Seth responds first and asks "What is your name exactly?"
"Well my name is Alpha."
"It's nice to meet you Alpha! I'm Seth. As you probably know my trainer in the bed is Adam. And that gall over there is Levi."
"Yes, it is nice to meet you and all but now we need to focus on the task at hand." Adam reminded the group grumpily. "We need to find a safe way to get us all out of here and to a safe place to talk about this privately."
Alpha now shaking where he stands asks in a panicky manner. "Are you saying we're not safe here?"
"Well think about it. If those guys could get into one of the most secure parties ever then what says they don't have people watching us now? I have a plan though." As everyone looks over at Adam curiously he continues. "Levi, I'll call in a car to bring you to the champion hall, where we will meet up. Alpha, you will come with me as if you were Seth."
"So then what does that mean for me?"
"Seth, I'm going to call someone in to act as your trainer to get you out."
"You don't mean that right? Right? Adam, you said you and I would never leave each others side!"
"Seth I know what I said but I also said I would keep you safe. This plan will do that."
"I don't care what happens to me! As long as I'm with you I actually feel. Safe. Happy even." Seth says with tears streaming down his face.
Adam just smiles and wipes away Seth's tears. "A day with Max. You can handle that, right champ?"
"Yes, I can for you." Seth said, determination weakly in him.
"Okay then, let's get going." and at that time one of the detectives working on the scene of the crime agreed to take Seth out back to the champion league. Levi puts on her usual wear of a yellow and pink tank top, disconnected yellow and pink sleeves, blue pants with a yellow design on the left leg,and blue and pink sneakers. She also puts on a light pink bandana and a black bag around her waist. She gets out of the hospital and was escorted in the car Adam promised to his home. Adam then changes into his usual clothes of a dark brown leather jacket unzipped, a short sleeve black shirt, blue jeans, and black sport shoes. As Adam gets ready he talks to Alpha. "You know you don't need to wear that suit now right? You should probably take…"
"No!" Alpha screams. Almost immediately he then bowing and simultaneously apologizing. "I'm sorry. It's just that it was a gift someone. I now wear it to show what loyal butler I have become."
"It's fine. I understand where this is coming from. We won't be out in public for that long anyway." All of a sudden Adam gets a text message. "Let's get going. Our ride is here."
Both Adam and Alpha walk onto the roof were a private jet is waiting for the two of them. Alpha looking in amazement from what a champion can have of just having successful battles but Adam looked ashamed for using these powers he getting in Alpha was even more impressed seeing a mini refrigerator having multiple drinks inside as well the TV just over it.
However Alpha started to think. What if he was was good enough for that traine. They could have had this. This luxury to enjoy that Adam doesn't. Alpha thought to ask why this is. "Adam, sir. Is there some reason that you don't look happy about being champion?"
"It's not that I don't like being the champion. It's that I don't like what the champion title has become. This importance to keep happy and protected. It also gives the trainer all of the credit."
"But, isn't it the trainer that teaches and tells their pokemon what they need to do?"
"No! Well yes but that's not it. What you just said is that I don't need anyone but myself. That it doesn't matter what they feel. Me and my pokemon have earned the title, but not the way we should be treated as. Just look at us. Look at what I can get with just a say of a word. That's why I don't like my new title." The two of them sat there not saying anything for the rest of the ride.
Once the helicopter had landed, it was behind a big building. There was two guards to escort Adam and Alpha into the building."Is this the champion's room?" ask Alpha.
"This is the back way to get in so yes." Adam says as they walk through the doors, into a room like a foyer. "Before we go any further in, you want to play a game of chess? We still have time before Levi get's here."
"I'm not the best at chess but if you would like to then I shall."
Adam pulls out a big chess board and started to set it up. "I'll play as black and you can have white. Is that fine with you Alpha?"
"Ow! Yes of cores."
They sit down on opposite sides of the table and stare at each other not saying a word. Breaking the silence one last time they both say "Good luck." Staring at the bord Alpha makes his first move. After a while, Adam had a clear lead having five pons, both rooks and bishops, and his king and queen. While Alpha only had six pons, one rook, bishop, and knight, with the king in a castle. However, Adam made an unlikely move. He moved his king forward. "What are you doing?" screams in confusion.
"If the king doesn't move, then his people won't follow. If the king doesn't use his full power, then his subjects won't follow."
"But there is no strategy to it! If you do this you're making yourself vulnerable." Alpha looks with a confused look on his face, then seeing a big smile on Adam's face that actually made Alpha scared. Adam continued moving his king forward until he moved it into check when had to question "What are you doing? You can't move into check."
Adam responds firmly, "Don't stop me. Let my king keep moving forward. Do anything but take him. I command it!" In shock from knowing what he does about Adam, Alpha does as told and this continues on until Adam puts his black king up to the white king. Alpha moves his rook away allowing himself to lose.
Adam looks up, not making the finishing move. "I didn't want to play just to waste a little time. I wanted to know you better. Now I do. I'm glad you came along Alpha. You may not see it, but I see the great potential in you." Then getting up and putting a hand on Alpha's shoulder, Adam gives a worm smile.
Alpha, crying small tears from hearing this from him, looks up and says, "Thank you."
