Chapter 24: Not Another Assault!
Another month went by and Ash and May were doing a good job of keeping his house clean while making sure that Eve didn't get into anything that she wasn't suppose to.
They decided that it would be nice to invite their friends over for some food and to catch up with one another.
(The Next Day)
The others, except for Drew, came over and ate some food while they caught up with one another.
"I can't believe he did that to you even though you didn't do anything. You should've been the one to break up with him. Stupid jerk." said Misty, getting mad because Drew broke her friend's heart.
"Yeah, but I've gotten better since I've moved in to help take care of things around here." said May, calming Misty down and glancing over at Ash.
Before any of them knew it, they were surrounded by Teams Rocket, Aqua, Magma, and Galactic grunts.
"What's going on?!" asked Ash, holding Eve tightly in his arms.
"We're here for your daughter and your unborn child, Ash Ketchum." said Giovanni as him, Maxie, Archie, and Cyrus walked in between the grunts.
Ash held her close as he laid a hand on his belly.
"You're gonna have to go through my dead body if you want my kids." said Ash, protecting his children.
"And ours too." said Ashley as they surrounded Ash to keep him safe.
"If you say so. Grunts attack!" said Cyrus before they said the last part in unison.
The gang was swarmed by the grunts and tried to protect Ash as best as they could, but May was able to take Eve from his arms in order for him to keep them off his belly.
The raven-haired man worked on keeping the grunts away until everyone heard a gunshot and looked at Giovanni holding the smoking gun.
The others looked and found Ash on the ground with a bullet in his shoulder.
"Make a noise and see what happens to your friend." said Giovanni maliciously.
"Come at me. I'm not afraid of anything." said Ash, looking at the four men.
The others stared in wonder at how Ash was able to say something so bold.
"Fine. Have it your way." said Giovanni, raising his gun.
"No!" screamed May, hoping that Ash would die like Dawn.
They heard a gunshot and saw that Ash was on his side with his back facing Giovanni and they saw blood seeping out from the gunshot in his back.
"Grrr. Retreat!" said Giovanni, knowing when they've been defeated.
The four teams left and Daughter checked Ash out to find that the two gunshots were only minor injuries.
"Don't you ever do that again to me, Ash Ketchum. I don't need another friend gone because of a gun." said May while Ash was holding Eve.
Daughter was impressed with how much discipline May gave him for that compared to what she was gonna say.
