I Still don't Own Pokémon
Chapter Two: Reports and Old Friends
Ash and Gary sat at the maple table once again discussing the Stadium that was to be built in Pallet town, They had decided to accept the invitation to the opening and perform in a couple of battles, they would decide whether they would do a double battle or Single, where the likelihood was that they would end up battling each other, which would not be good for newly-weds.
"Right so I like to do Double Battles Ashy" Gary said, stroking Umbreon on the head,
"Yeah, Me and you" Ash said smiling to Gary, neither of them had battled in at least a year, ever since Ash and Gary had retired from adventuring however, many trainers including the leader of the Kanto elite four Lance had been coming to them and asking for training knowledge, such as the weakness of teams and growth of trainers skills and confidence, or just for a chat about training Pokémon.
There came a knock at the door, Gary sighed and got out of the chair, Ash walked into the Living room and looked out of the window, Brock and Misty were waiting there, Ash gulped, they like most People, didn't know of Ash and Gary's Relationship or even the fact that they were engaged, when Gary Opened the door Ash heard misty speak, "Hey Gary, Where's Ash?"
"In the Living room, would you two like to come in?" Gary asked
"Please" Brock said, walking into the room, he looked around then seeing Ash he rushed forward,
"Hey Brock, Hey Misty, How's the Gyms?" Ash asked casually
"Good enough" Brock said
"Fine" Misty added, looking suspiciously between Ash and Gary, seeming to put together invisible threads
"Is this a casual visit or is there another purpose?" Gary Asked sitting down in one of the Arm chairs, while Ash sat in another, leaving the sofa to Brock and Misty
"Well, we want you two to look at these" Misty said, Handing the a set of papers to both Ash and Gary, they picked one of them up and looked at it, they were all missing posters, several names stuck out: Lance, Agatha, Lorelei, Bruno, May, Dawn, Professor Rowan, Jesse and James.
"That's a lot of missing People" Gary said
"Who could take down all four members of the Kanto Elite four, as well as capture them along with many other powerful trainers, and two ex-Team Rocket members?" Ash asked
"We believe Giovanni and Team Rocket was involved along with several other criminal groups, including Magma and Aqua, and its believed Galactic as well" Brock said
"So why are they taking them?" Gary asked
"No Idea, but we're warning all skilled trainers to be on the alert" Brock said, "You two are both enemies of the Rocket so they may try and target you, so be careful"
They nodded and Brock got up to leave, Misty quickly spoke, "I'll be right there, I just want a word with Ash" Gary got up, to escort Brock out, Misty turned to face Ash,
"I Want the Truth" She said, Ash stomach dropped at these words
"What about Misty?" He replied, acting calmly
"What is going on between you and Gary?" She asked
"Why would you ask that?" Ash queried
"I saw they way your eyes kept meeting, how you two seem to be constantly near each other, now what is going on?" Misty asked
"Fine I better Tell you" Ash sighed, "me and Gary are Engaged" Misty's Jaw hit seemed to hit the floor, after a minute she steadied herself and asked an all important question
"How long have you two been together?"
"Four or Five years, ever since I returned from Unova and he returned from the research lab on Cinnabar" Ash replied looking into her eyes, "I Bought this house then started working closely with Gary, we got together and then Engaged"
"You have to invite me to the wedding, now we must go see Professor Oak" Misty said getting up and walking out, Gary walked back into the room and walked to stand infront of ash, "Brock now knows" Gary said, "He rounded on me as soon as we got outside"
"Misty Knows too" Ash said, "She seemed to have guess"
"Ah well, two more people we can trust" Gary said, sitting down, and looking at the table, deep in though
