Hey guys! If you celebrated Christmas, how was it? I got so much stuff including Pokemon Rumble Blast and Pokemon Platinum. And for you POTO phans, I got an Erik plushie! Anyway, Here's the next chapter, mainly focusing on Giovanni.
Jessie: 21
James:21
Ash remembered many tales of the Sevii Islands before he started his Pokemon Journey. It was a series of seven islands that were south of Kanto. He had always wanted to travel to them, but it was quite expensive, and there were hardly any people inhabiting the outer islands.
Iris and Cilan looked at the Kanto Pokemon in the water with surprise. For them, Poliwhirl and Tentacruel were extremely rare. Axew jumped out of Iris's hair and wondered to the shoreline. He got too close to the Poliwhirl, and it squirted him.
Iris squeaked with glee, "I'm going to catch it!" Before the excited trainer could catch it, Mewtwo put out an arm.
He said, "We have no time for such trivial matters." Iris nodded glumly and put the Pokeball away.
Ash asked, "So, what island are we on?" Mewtwo then proceeded to explain how they were on Six Island, and they needed to head to an old ruins spot. None of the kids asked any more questions as they trudged deeper into the island.
They traveled across a wide, green forest to get there. Ash was still not fully recovered, and was tiring quickly, but he managed to keep walking. He smiled as more Kanto Pokemon came and went. He remembered all the good times he had on his first Pokemon journey. He hoped that he would be able to stop Giovanni so that he could continue getting his Unova gym badges.
As Ash continued to think about it, he had a sudden realization. What if he failed? If he was unsuccessful the whole world would end. It was quite the task for a ten year old boy!
He heard Mew's voice in his head, "Hey! No negative thoughts!"
He thought back, "But Mew, what if I don't win?"
"If you think like that, you never will succeed! And to answer your question, if you don't win, the world will pay."
"Thanks."
She giggled and replied, "No problem! You'll be fine!" Their telepathic communication ended, and the silence began again. They continued to walk for about ten more minutes, with Ash getting even more exhausted.
He was just about to ask when they would arrive, until the forest broke and the sun's rays poured in. Another beach welcomed the group, and at the center stood a gigantic rock cave, with a gray bolted door. Two marble pillars guarded the door on both sides.
Mewtwo started to walk towards the door, but Mew flew in front of him.
She said, "Please, Mewtwo, I want to do it! It's so cool!"
Mewtwo waved a hand, "Alright. If you must…" Without waiting for Mewtwo to continue, the energetic legendary soared up to the door, and her eyes turned blue. All of a sudden, the door moved forward and slid to the right. Mew squeaked in happiness, for she liked the noise and movement of the door.
Mewtwo turned to the children and their Pokemon, "I will explain in a moment, but everyone put your hand on the door so that it recognizes you if you have to leave." He turned to Ash, "Especially you." The kids nodded and ran up to the door.
Ash didn't really understand why they had to do this. For precaution, Ash removed one of his fingerless gloves, and laid his bare hand on the door. Pikachu, Iris, Cilan and Axew followed suit. For just a fraction of a second, there was a very sudden tingling sensation, but it abruptly ceased.
Mewtwo nodded, "That will do. Mew just activated the door with her psychic power, allowing the door to allow us all in. Since you are humans and non-legendary Pokemon, you had to get acquainted with the door." He motioned for them to follow inside the ruins. As they stepped inside, the kids gasped.
Giovanni eagerly waited for Dr. Zeger's search on Ash. He was sure it wasn't that hard to narrow the results. His name was Ash, he had raven hair, and he was a Pokemon trainer. He was certain that he would know more within the hour. The boss wondered how Ash got entangled with Mewtwo and Mew. Even though he would never admit it, Giovanni was mildly impressed. Even he couldn't control Mewtwo, and it seemed Mewtwo held the boy in high regard.
At the moment, Giovanni was in The Legendary Storeroom, in the Team Rocket HQ. All the legendaries they captured were in custom-made cages. They were made by the designers of the Parasite Nets, and they were super-effective. They rendered Pokemon powers useless. Technology really astounded Giovanni.
He smirked as he walked by Arceus's cage. It angrily stared at him, knowing it couldn't do anything. Since that fateful day at the Pokemon Heaven, Team Rocket claimed three more Pokemon; Entei, Terrakion and Mesprit. As he walked by Mesprit's cage, he felt a twinge of regret. What was he doing? He should let these Pokemon go! It wasn't right, it was completely cruel!
Giovanni was hit with realization. These thoughts did not belong to him, they belong to Mesprit! After all, it was the Pokemon of emotions! He angrily glared at the little pixie.
He called to a grunt, "You! This cage is defective! Fix it, so Mesprit doesn't use its powers!" As he stormed back to his office, the Pokemon cried as it was knocked out by the Parasite Nets. Arceus roared with anger.
When he was back at his office, Dr. Zeger was waiting with a file in his hand. He told Giovanni that he found Ash in the Pokemon Trainer Database. Giovanni dismissed the scientist and sat down. The file contained many pictures of him and his Pokemon. He finally found the generic information:
Ashton Satoshi Ketchum
Age: 10
Gender: Male
Hair: Black
Eyes: Brown
Biological Father:?
Biological Mother: Delia Hanako Ketchum
Hometown: Pallet Town, Kanto
Address: 11 Dodrio Street
Status: Pokemon Trainer
Achievements: Ash has all the badges of Kanto, the Orange Islands, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and currently three in Unova. He placed in the Top 16 in Kanto, the winner of the Orange Islands, the Top 8 in Johto and Hoenn and the Top 4 in Sinnoh. Ash has also obtained all symbols in the Battle Frontier.
There was much more information, but Giovanni couldn't read any more. He froze for five minutes on his mother's name: Delia Ketchum… his love from many years ago.
He frowned. His frown deepened as there was no mention of a father.
He said to himself, "Oh no. What am I going to do?" He learned his lesson, never to speak out loud again, for voices called back.
"Why is the boss so worried indeed?"
"He'll answer to us when he feels the need!"
"We're helping him bring the blinding white light of evil into the future!"
"And he's thrusting the hammer of justice down onto the black darkness of the universe!"
"We'll all be carving our names into the rock of enternity!" The door opened and Giovanni's three biggest charges walked in. So far, in Unova, they were doing an okay job, but Giovanni sometimes wondered if promoting them was the right decision. He quickly closed Ash's file.
"The fiery destroyer, Jessie!"
"And with thunderous emotion, I am James!"
"Wisest of the wise, Meowth!"
They all declared together, "And now gather, under the name of Team Rocket!"
James smiled goofily at Giovanni, "How did you like it sir? We haven't shown you yet!"
Giovanni decided to humor them. He just wanted to know if they knew anything about Ash. They were the Rockets who traveled all over. They must know something.
He stood up, "Marvelous. Now, I have a question for you three." They all nodded, eager to please their boss.
He said, "Have you ever met a boy named Ash Ketchum?" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the three threw themselves on the ground, crying and apologizing.
Jessie wailed, "We're sorry! He's got strong Pokemon! We really do try to get that Pikachu for you!"
James looked at the floor, "He's always interfering with our plans, even though they don't involve his Pokemon!" The trio rambled on, providing examples of when Ash defeated Team Rocket. Giovanni felt particularly enraged when he learned that Ash was the one to wreck his St. Anne plot back in Kanto.
What caught Giovanni's interest, was their account of Ash and legendary Pokemon. They told him about Lugia, and that Ash was the chosen one. Not wanting to get in trouble, they blurted out that Ash and some of his friends helped disband Team Galactic.
Giovanni wanted this kid out of the way. He was dangerous to Team Rocket. However as he glanced at his file, Giovanni needed to know if his suspicions were correct. If so, he couldn't kill the boy. And he knew just where he needed to go. He smirked as he ordered the helicopter pilot to fly to Pallet Town.
And that's the end of the chapter! I totally made up the name of of the street.
Larxa: And now it's time for the battle between VarietyGuy's Zorua and Ash's Pikachu! Since VG is the challenger he gets the first move.

VG: Thank you. Pikachu is amazing too.

VG: Heck yes! (Both trainers run off)
