Anthony went back to his house with Team Rocket, now with a cast on his left hand. James was carrying a comically large number of pizza boxes.
Anthony: …..So about that basketball team of yours.
Jessie: Yeah?
Anthony: Does Team Rocket play for…Houston?
Meowth: …..Is that supposed to be funny? Because it isn't.
They got to Anthony's house and saw the Unikitty characters in the cages.
Unikitty: WILL YOU PLEASE LET US OUT OF HERE?!
Anthony: I would. But I can't. My left hand's broken, and since I'm left-handed, I couldn't possibly use the key with my right hand.
The Unikitty characters (except Puppycorn) made "Did you seriously just say that?" faces.
Anthony: I'm kidding. The reason I can't let you out is because I obviously don't have the key.
Wobbuffet came out of his Poké Ball.
Wobbuffet: Wobbuffet!
Wobbuffet went over to the cages and destroyed them.
Dr. Fox: We're free!
Hawkodile: Let's go home!
Unikitty: FUNNY COMMERCIALS DAY!
*air horn blowing 4 times*
The Unikitty characters ran away.
James: Can we go inside now? I can't hold these pizzas for one more second.
Anthony: Sure we…oh wait, that reminds me. One of the pizzas I bought was for them.
Anthony took the top pizza from the stack.
Anthony: Unikitty and acquaintances! Wait!
James couldn't take it anymore and put the pizzas on the ground.
James: Ok, let's go in.
Wobbuffet: Wobba!
Wobbuffet lifted all the pizzas above his head with one hand without any effort. Team Rocket went into the house. What they saw was Leni lying on the floor in pain.
Meowth: What happened here?
Diancie: We were just hangin' out, mindin' our own business. When suddenly, this moron comes barging in, runs over to my friend like a maniac, then scares her to death by shoving this big huge needle in her face. So, being that I'm Celebi's protector, I beat up…whoever this is.
Leni: That's not…OW!...exactly what happened.
FLASHBACK
Diancie and Celebi were on the couch. Celebi was crying.
Diancie: There, there. Just let it out, let it out. And make it quick because I'm really sick of this.
Leni knocked on the door.
Diancie: Go away!
Leni: Can I please come in? There's something I have to do in there.
Diancie: I don't know who you are.
Leni: It's me, Leni.
Diancie: I still don't know who you are. Now why don't you make like a tree, and get outta here?
Celebi looked over at Diancie and made a "Why on Earth would you say that, especially when I'm already sad?" face.
Diancie: Oh. Soar-rye.
Leni knocked on the door again.
Diancie: *groan* If I let you in, will you shut up?
Leni: Uhh….sure.
Diancie: Ok, fine. The door's unlocked. Come on in, I guess.
Leni gently opened the door and walked over to the couch.
Leni: …..Alright Celebi, I know you're still really sad, but…ok, here's the thing.
Leni slowly took out the big needle in the least scary way possible. Celebi was slightly scared by it.
Leni: I was supposed to give you this shot back on Christmas Eve, but you were really sad about what happened at your wedding, so I decided I would wait until you cheered up. Well, my boss called me and said I've been waiting way too long. So, I'm sorry about this, but….I gotta give it to you now.
Diancie then beat up Leni.
END OF FLASHBACK
Diancie: ….I don't see how that story's any different than the one I told.
Celebi: Celebi. Celb Celb. Celebi.
Diancie: Really? Are you sure?
Celebi: Celb.
Diancie: …I don't know. That weird jacket she's wearing has me suspicious. Hey Benny, what's the shot for?
Leni: I don't know who Benny is, but I can tell you what the shot's for. My boss said it'll take Celebi's time travel power away.
Celebi got excited.
Leni: Wait. She doesn't want her power?
Diancie: Nope. She's always hated it.
Celebi: Cel Celb bi bi Celebi.
Diancie: So I guess that means you can give her the shot.
Diancie helped Leni up by having her grab onto the shot.
Leni: Ow! Actually, I'm just gonna lay down here for a while. Probably for a lot longer than last time.
Diancie: Yeah, you probably shouldn't be giving anyone shots anyway.
Diancie went over to Team Rocket.
Diancie: Any of you wanna do it?
James: We're in the middle of eating pizza.
Diancie: Pizza that I'm pretty sure was supposed to be saved for the Super Bowl.
Jessie: Well, there's so much of it, we just figured…
Diancie: Oh, whatever. I stopped caring about the Super Bowl when Tennessee lost. Well, looks like there's no one left but me. And it really SHOULD be me because who better than…?
Celebi: Celebi Celebi Celebi.
Diancie: …You want Emolga to do it? Why on Earth would you want Emolga to do it, and not me?!
Celebi: Celebi Celebi Celebi.
Diancie: …There is no way!
Diancie went upstairs and opened Emolga's Luxury Ball.
Diancie: Emolga, did you really use to be a Nurse Joy?
Emolga: …..That's debatable.
Diancie: Debatable? What do you mean, debatable? Explain!
Emolga: Well, for one thing, my name's not Joy. But what happened was…
Pokémon Center FLASHBACK
Present Emolga: My parents had just gotten divorced. And I was handling it very maturely.
Past Emolga: *crying* Nooooooooooo! You can't break up! You're my mommy and daddy!
Present Emolga: But I was still a little upset about it. So, since I was feeling unhappy, I decided that I wanted to devote my life to making others feel better. I saw this building…
Diancie: I don't need every single detail.
Present Emolga: Understood. So Nurse Joy wouldn't give me a job, but there was a power out at the Pokémon Center one day, and she needed more help. Then some old Emolga, who I've always assumed was my future self, taught me everything there is to know about healing Pokémon. But after the power came back on, Nurse Joy fired me because corporate policy states that Wigglytuff are the only Pokémon who can work at Kalos Pokémon Centers.
Past Emolga: This job is so hard! I quit!
Emolga left her nurse clothes on the counter and left the Pokémon Center.
Past Nurse Joy: Emolga quit? Well that sucks. She was the best Pokémon nurse I had ever seen!
END OF Pokémon Center FLASHBACK
Diancie: Did you learn how to give shots?
Emolga: Uh-huh. But that one you've got is empty.
Diancie: That's because it's for taking Celebi's time travel power away.
Emolga: …Is that how it works? You can just extract someone's superpower out of them by giving them a shot?
Diancie: Apparently.
Emolga: …...Well then how come supervillains don't…?
Diancie: *groan* Let's just do this already.
Diancie handed the shot to Emolga and they started going downstairs.
Emolga: …..Don't you wanna know why I never told you about that Pokémon Center experience I went through?
Diancie: I don't care.
Emolga: ….Yep. That's why.
They made it downstairs and went over to Celebi, who was at the couch.
Emolga: Emo Emo Emolga.
Diancie: You mean a Band-Aid?
Emolga: Em. Emolga.
Diancie: Oh, well SOAR-RYE I don't know your fancy medical terminology.
Diancie went over to Leni.
Diancie: Do you got a bandage?
Leni: A what?
Diancie: You see, Emolga? This is why you're supposed to call it a Band-Aid.
Leni: A Band-Aid? Why didn't you just say so? Yeah, I've got a Band-Aid. But it's in my back pocket and I don't wanna try to move my arms.
Diancie: *groan*
Diancie lifted Leni up and beat her up the same way she did before but on the opposite side of her body. This made it so Leni wasn't hurt anymore. Because that's how pain works!
Leni: Like, I feel fine now. How'd you do that?
Diancie: …How do you not know how I did it when you're the one I was doing it to?
Leni: I forgot what it was.
Diancie: Just give Emolga the Band-Aid.
Leni: Ok.
Leni went over to Emolga and opened the bandage. It was orange with the Team Magma logo on it.
Leni: Where do I put it?
Diancie: No! Don't put it on her, just give it to her.
Leni: What's the difference?
Diancie took the bandage out of Leni's hand.
Diancie: Now Celbs, are you sure you wanna do this?
Celebi: Celb.
Diancie: Are you 100% sure? Because…
Emolga: Emol Em Emolga?
Diancie: I AM NOT SCARED OF THE SHOT! I just wanna make sure Celebi's sure.
Emolga: *apologizing repeatedly*
Diancie: Just give her the shot.
Emolga poked the shot into Celebi's left arm. It really hurt. Diancie felt the same pain that Celebi did. Emolga pulled the handle on the shot, filling it with a light blue liquid. She took the shot out of Celebi and put the bandage on her arm.
Diancie: Did it work? Celebi, try to time travel.
Celebi tried to time travel, but she couldn't. Celebi was happy about this and then she hugged Diancie and Emolga.
Leni: But like, couldn't she have time traveled back to her wedding and stopped that bad thingy from happening?
Celebi got very sad and went upstairs.
Diancie: ACTUALLY, I suggested that to her before and she said she didn't want to. So thanks a lot for reminding her of that for no reason right when she was cheering up!
Diancie punched Leni in the face. Then she followed it up with punching Emolga in the side of her face.
Diancie: And that's for thinking I was scared.
Emolga: *more apologizing*
Diancie: SHUT UP!
Team Rocket came out of the kitchen.
James: This pizza is great! You want some?
Leni: Thank you, but I've gotta get going.
Leni took the shot from Emolga.
Jessie: What is that anyway?
Leni: Time travel juice. My boss told me if it's inside you, you can go back in time or to the future. So that's why I gotta bring it to…
Meowth: GIVE US THAT RIGHT NOW!
Team Rocket ran towards Leni.
Leni: *scream*
Leni ran out of the house. Grace was outside with Lightning and she had chicken wings. She also had dipping sauce, because she did not forget it. Leni stopped for a moment when she noticed the Unikitty characters weren't in the cages anymore. She was confused by this. Team Rocket then came out of the house and chased Leni away.
Grace: Was that Leni and Team Rocket?
Lightning: I no think so, but it looked like they were playing football.
Grace and Lightning went inside. Diancie was upstairs with Celebi now.
Grace: Emolga, is everyone okay? What was Team Rocket doing here?
Emolga took a translation pill.
Emolga: I don't know. I just came downstairs and they were here. But then they tried to steal Celebi's time travel juice, so yeah, we probably shouldn't let them in our house…..I had better go get it back from them.
Grace: ….Time travel juice?
Emolga (yelling to upstairs): Diancie! Can you help me…?
Diancie: NO!
Emolga: Ok.
Emolga left the house. Then the phone rang.
Lightning: I'LL GET IT! I'LL GET IT! I'LL GET IT! I'LL GET IT! I'LL GET IT! I'LL GET IT!
Guess what Lightning did. She got the phone.
Lightning: Hello.
Lillie: Mom, was Aunt Leni there?
Lightning: No. But someone who looks like her was.
Lillie: Oh. I thought for sure she would've come by now. Will you call me back when she does get there?
Lightning: Sure. But why?
Lillie: I can't tell you, but it's really, REALLY important.
Lightning: Ok. Bye.
Lightning hung up.
Grace: Who was it, Leigha?
Lightning: Lillie. She said I have to call her when Leni gets here…..How do I do that?
