Kanto Saga
Chapter 23
Abra, the Psychic Showdown! Ash's first Loss.
After the girls won their Rainbow Badges and with Erika joining him Ash and this friends make their way to Saffron City Ash's Gym Battle, and because Ash, Usagi and Ami getting the Gate guard a drink of ice tea for the Guard to be happy enough to let them pass and the Guard tell the other guards to open the gates so everyone can come to Saffron City however it seems that danger lurks behind every shadow. And they've lost their way due to the City being so big how will they find the Pokémon Center as well as a Gym and a Hotel for them to stay at?
As they are surprised to see how big Saffron City is compared to Celadon City the gang walked down the street to find a Pokémon Center when Rei senses something she closed her eyes and sensed it.
"I sense an aura coming by." Rei said "A Gym leader with unbelievable powers that can be used to toy with others and Three Mysterious Guardians will arrive sooner or later."
"You mean the Saffron City Gym leader?" Ash spoke then giggled a little "There's no way that a Gym leader could do anything that evil, and wait a minute Three Mysterious Guardians?"
"Yes, the Three Outer Guardians that are searching for the 3 Talismans and the Prince of the Golden Sun." Luna added
"Talismans?" Ash, Naru and Erika asked now feeling puzzled
Before Luna and Artemis could answer and explain they see a little girl giggling and bouncing a ball in a middle of the sidewalk leaving the others shocked and Usagi and Minako scared like frighten kittens. The little girl takes her ball and runs into the darkness leaving the others confused and stunned.
"W-Why the hell did that little girl disappear like that like a G-G-Ghost?!" Minako stuttered
"That was definitely an evil aura coming from her." Ash sensed "Damn, this city is crawling with creepy dolls."
"Pikachu."
"Nice work, Ashy." Rei said happily
"That was definitely a Ghost!" Usagi whined
"Mabye they like to eat Bunheads." Rei said snootingly "and also blondes with Red bows."
"Stop joking like that, Rei!" Usagi snapped glaring at Rei
"Yeah that wasn't even funny!" Minako glared
Rei was now cross with both of the blondes that she was only joking.
"I was just joking!" Rei shot back
"That wasn't funny eather way!" Usagi and Minako snarled
Ami and Erika stepped in and trys to break up the arguments as Ash, Luna, Artemis, Chibiusa, Makoto, Pikachu, Pichu and Raichu looks dumbfoundingly at the 3 girls fighting
"Now girls, Please stop fighting." Ami smoothed "outside the point, the sun is already is going down, so arguing about anything isn't helping."
"And let us go to a Pokémon Center to heal up our Pokémon." Erika said
"Sorry girls." Usagi and Minako apologized
"I didn't mean to joke around." Rei said "Let's follow the two and after the Pokémon Center we should find a Hotel to stay at for a couple of days."
"Ok." Ash accepted
"Pika."
When Ash, Pikachu, Raichu, Pichu, the girls and the Moon cats arrive at the Pokémon Center they all waited for their Pokémon to heal one person at a time with Ami going first and Ash going last, once their Pokémon are healed they head towards the Phone to call Delia to let her know where they are.
"Ok, everyone since our Pokémon are healed, let's call my mom and tell her where we are and we got our badges and we have Erika join us." Ash said
"I would love to meet your mother, Ashy." Erika said hugging Ash from behind which made him blush.
"She's the sweetest person that Ash has ever had." Makoto said "I hope to cook with her one day."
Ash picks up the Phone and Delia's face appears onscreen and happy to see her son and his Friends.
"Hi, Honey! Hi, Pikachu! Hi, Girls!" Delia greeted
"Hi mom." Ash greeted
"Pika!"
"Hi, Mrs. Ketchum!" Ami, Makoto, Naru, Chibiusa, Minako, Rei and Usagi greeted
"Ash, I see you made a new Friend there." Delia smiled noticing Erika
"Hello, Mrs. Ketchum, my name is Erika. I'm a Gym leader of the Celadon City Gym and I decided to come with your son to give him some wonderful support." Erika introduced
"It's really nice to meet you Erika." Delia smiled and turned to Ash "So how's my son and his friends doing?"
"We're doing great, Mom and me and my Friends just go the Rainbow Badge." Ash giggled and showed her his badges and his friends did the same.
"That's so wonderful honey!" Delia cired "have you been being very kind to the girls?"
"Yeah, Mrs. Ketchum." Minako answered before Ash can "He went on a date with me and Ami at the Celadon City Mall, and he was a real Gentleman that we ever met."
"That's so amazing." Delia smiled "I remember when I first went on my first date. it was amazing and I'm so happy that my son is going out and after his Gym battle."
"I swore a vow that I would protect these lovely girls with all my life." Ash smiled
"Pika Pikachu."
After a few minutes of talking to Deila on the Phone and during the call she told them that too began to have visions of the Silver Millennium as she was the queen of the Sun and after that they hung up and promised to talk to her when he reached to another town or City, the Gang heads to the Pokémon Center Cafe and Ash, Pikachu, Ami, Makoto, Rei, Minako, Usagi, Raichu and Pichu sat in table 6 for 6 people and Chibiusa, Erika and Naru sat on table 7 and Ami explained about the Gym.
"According to my Kanto and Johto guidebook, Sabrina's the leader of the Saffron City Gym, and the Pokémon she specialize in Psychic types. When You defeat her, you win a Marsh badge." Ami explained "and Ghost, Bug and Dark types are the best way to beat her and earned the Marsh Badge. Otherwise she can be very tough."
"Wow, the only bug types I have is Beedrill and he is at Professor Oak's place and I don't have any Ghost or dark types." Ash sighed sadly "and Beedrill has never been a single battle in his life. This sucks."
"Pika…"
"Chin up, Ash." Ami smiled "I'm sure that Beedrill can help you out and you have Your newly evolved Shiny Charmeleon can help you. He has been getting stronger since he evolved."
Ash then felt a little happier "You're right, Lovely Bookworm. I do have some strong Pokémon, I should bring in some that never battled before and they will get strong as well." He said with a confident smile
"Pika!"
"Pichu!"
"That's the spirit!" Ami smiled
"Attaboy, dude!" Makoto cheered "We'll do some hardcore training because this Sabrina girl seem so tough!"
"Ok, Let's order our food and get desert last." Minako smiled eagerly
As they looked at the Menus all the prices for Meals and dinner are very good and the Prices for Dessert such as Cake and Ice Cream sundaes are good, however the rest of the meal's prices are high, which causes the others to get appalled.
"Everyone, look at this! 50 for a bacon triple quarter pounder?! "Minako snapped "and 30 for a Banana split?!"
"That much?" Ami asked while shaking her head
"Ripoff!" Rei barked
"I'm not buying or having that!" Ash glared while face palming "Hell no!"
"Pikachu!"
"With those prices, Team Rocket must be enemies!" Makoto glared at the ridiculous prices
"Ashy, I think we should get some meals that's 20 or less." Usagi suggested "I'm going to the Pizza."
"I'll be paying." Ash said
"I'll be paying as well." Erika said "it will be teamwork."
"Hey Ash, after Dinner and when we get some hotel rooms and get settled in we can do some farce training for Sabrina." Makoto smiled to the Young Man. "We'll call back your Beedrill and let's just hope that you would win."
"Pika!"
"Rai."
When Ash orders curry rice and the other girls order their favorite food and they enjoyed it as their food arrive and and Ash and Erika payed for it, and they started chit chatting for a bit about the Gym and how tough it will be. When Ash sent his Primeape to Professor Oak's lab and called back Beedrill the Gang finds a hotel and gets checked in Ash, Makoto, Rei and Erika gets room 207 with Pikachu and Raichu and Ami, Usagi, Minako, Naru and Chibiusa get room 208 with Pichu, Luna and Artemis.
In the Room 207 Ash is laying on the bed that Makoto, him and Rei are sharing and is feeling unsure if he could win against Sabrina the Gym leader, recalls that Ami mentioned how dangerous Physic Types can be when in battle while chit chatting. Makoto who has her hair down walked over to Ash and layed Down with him.
"Hey Ashy, what do you say we head to Route 7 and get our training on?" Makoto asked
"Y-Yeah, Mako." Ash said and held her hand "and I love it when your hair is down."
"Chaa…"
"Thank you Ashy, I think I should do that when we get to a hotel room." She said
Ash putted his fears away for now and heads to Route 7 for training with Makoto as he plans to use Pikachu, Charmeleon and Beedrill, they trained hard for a few minutes and after that they went back to their hotel room where Rei and Erika are at and they all turn in for the night.
The Next Day the Gang heads to the Saffron City Gym and Ash has got his Usual team of 6 Pokémon including Pikachu, Shiny Charmeleon and Beedrill, and on the way the Little Girl who was behind them and looked on at them and in the Gym Building they meet a Male Jogger, and Ash was surprised of the Building that was in front of him.
"So, this is the Saffron City Gym, huh?" Ash wondered
Before Ami could answer the Jogging man spoke while jogging past them
"That's right boy. You may be among to participate in the Pokémon League. But it's best to avoid this particular places." The Jogger warned
As Ash turns around to ask why, the Jogger heads back into the city leaving the others confused and puzzled of why he's telling Ash and the others to stay away.
"What's that all about?" Makoto asked than turned to Ash "Well let's head in! And let's hope that our training last night really paid off, if Not we can come up with something else!"
"Raichu!"
"That's strange. No one ever told us to stay away from the Saffron City gym, if anyone talked to us about the gym, they just told us to be prepared." Naru said feeling puzzled
"Strange is right, but we have gotta compete here. Without Marsh badges, we can't enter the Pokémon League." Minako said
Ami and Rei had a bad feeling of what's to come.
"Let's just hope that Ash wins his 5th Gym badge and does his best." Ami thought "Then again we have to be careful, because Sabrina the Gym Leader might be the most dangerous we ever faced."
Our heroes enter the gym and looked around for the entrance to the Battlefield and Rei could sense an Aura so big coming nearby, Ash could help Rei Sense it as well.
"Something's a little bit off about this gym, it sure didn't feel creepy when I first came here." Erika said feeling worried
"I sense an Evil Aura nearby." Rei said "we're almost to the Battlefield."
"And it isn't Team Rocket." Ash sensed "I think we should be careful."
Everyone then looks through the door window and sees a bunch of people in white coats doing experiments meant to determine if one has psychic abilities or not, as demonstrated by one person guessing what shape is on a card without him seeing it and another person practicing bending spoons. and the an unidentified man shows up wearing a white coat and a mask and confronts the Gang.
"What brings you all to the Saffron City Gym?" Asked the unidentified man
"Me and my Friends came here to request a formal match in order to get the Marsh Badge." Ash responded
"Pikachu."
"You all against Sabrina?" Laughed the unidentified man
"Excuse me Sir, I don't to interrupt but those people in that room are practicing their physic powers by bending spoons with telekinesis, correct?" Ami asked
"Correct young lady, and they're also guessing Cards without the others seeing it." Said the man "Allow me to demonstrate."
Holds out a spoon and concentrates, trying to make it bend, to everyone's confusion, but only barely makes it bend.
"So this place is a gym AND a school for those with psychic powers? Interesting." Rei thought "and the aura is getting much closer."
"So it's that how you do it?" Usagi said and walked towards the man "You May have Telekinesis, but me and Minako have guts."
"We have our own method for bending spoons, Muscle over mind!" Minako snickered
Usagi and Minako tries to bend 2 spoons using raw strength, succeeds, but embarrasses the stranger and some of the others and Ash and Ami could shake their heads.
"What are we going to do with those blondes?" Makoto sighed
"That's embarrassing." Ash said
"Pika…"
"Pretend we don't know him." Chibiusa sighed
"Pichu."
"No need to be insensitive, you guys." Ami scolded
"With all joking aside, Please guide us to where Sabrina is." Usagi requested
The stranger agreed and leads our heroes to the battlefield and subsequently enter and it looks like an abandoned Temple from Egypt other side is a throne Suddenly, the little girl from before appears and on Sabrina's lap, to the surprise and shock of everyone.
"It looks more like a temple than an arena." Usagi said shaking
"I really don't like pleases like this." Minako stuttered
"It's the girl that me and Ash sensed last night!" Rei cried
"I knew it!" Ami thought
The stranger then approaches Sabrina and bows down to her like he is her servant.
"Oh, great Sabrina, These strangers have come and 6 of them wants to challenge you." Said the Stranger "And they've all be prepared, though one of them is a fellow Gym Leader in the Celadon City Gym and the Young Man would go first for the worst and the 6 of his girls will go next. Young Man, you better be prepared for the worst."
The little girl looks at our heroes, this time with her eyes glowing red. Suddenly, the stranger start writhing in pain and glows just as the little girl did when she saved Pikachu and the stranger starts levitating up this makes the gang horrified.
"That's the evil aura I sensed!" Rei thought and got a Ofuda
"Damn! that's some huge aura I sensed, that means i'm knowing what I'm up against!" Ash thought
"Forgive me…. I'm terribly sorry…. I'm not in the position to say such things…" he struggled
The stranger stops glowing and runs out of the room in terror leaving the others on their guard.
"I knew that girl wasn't normal." Rei said
"She sure is scary!" Minako feared
"Are you really Sabrina?" Usagi asked "If so then could you have a formal Gym Battle with Ash first for the Marsh Badge?"
The little girl starts giggling and nodded "Yes, I'll fight you, I'll start with the cute guy Ash. However If you lose. you have to be friends and let me play with you, or at least part of your group."
"Ok…" Ash said "….I'll challenge you."
"Pika."
"Be careful Ash!" Ami cried and warned "I was able to analyze her and she has more power than you think."
"Pichu!"
"Ami, I'll be ok." Ash smoothed "Even of her having telekinesis, she's still only a little girl. But one things for certain, I'll make sure I do my best."
"Just don't let your guard down, Ashy." Ami said "Sabrina is holding her on her lap and I analyzed her more and it's only a doll, look!"
Everyone turned around and Right on cue, the gate separating Sabrina and the others lifts, and it's suddenly revealed to the shock of everyone that Ami was correct, the little girl is just a doll of some kind and the real Sabrina is far older than they thought, She has long dark green hair and indigo eyes, She wears black boots and a red dress with yellow buttons and has a Aura that's very powerful.
"So you have come for me." Sabrina glared and then smiled evilly "Well, Time for us to play. Cutie."
"Alright, and thanks." Ash agreed
The announcer then called "This will be a 4 on 4 match, this match will be for a Marsh badge. Trainers, select your Pokémon!"
Sabrina's doll let's go of the Pokéball it's holding and it flies toward the battlefield as Sabrina says her Pokémon's name as it materializes from it's PokéBall
"Slowbro, come out."
Then Ash calls his first Pokémon
"Pikachu, Go!" Ash called
"Pikachu!"
Pikachu races to the battlefield and his cheeks filled with electricity.
"Alright!" Makoto's thought "Using Type advantages against a Slowbro!"
"Pikachu! Pi Pi Pi! Pika Pikachu!"
Then Sabrina give out the first command.
"Slowbro, Phychic." She commanded
Slowbro launched a beam of Phychic on Pikachu which did little damage to him and Pikachu stood back up and Ash have the command
"Pikachu, thunderbolt!" Ash commanded
"Pika….CHU!!!"
Pikachu unleashes his thunderbolt on Slowbro and it was knocked out due to Water types being weak against electric types Sabrina was impressed of how good he is doing as she Recalls Slowbro back, the girls in the background cheered Ash on.
"Wow, it looks like Ash has got this!" Usagi cried happily
"It looks like my training is paying off a little." Makoto said
"Very well, Mr. Mime Go." Sabrina called while her doll sends out her next Pokémon
Mr. Mime materializes from it's PokéBall and Ash calls Pikachu back as he ran back to Ash and he gets out Shiny Charmeleon's Pokéball.
"Charmeleon, let's go!" Ash called
Ash sends out Shiny Charmeleon to Battle and it Materialized from it's PokéBall and Sparkles came out as it's ready to battle.
"Mr. Mime, use double slap." Sabrina commanded
Mr. Mime attacked with double slap 2 times on Charmeleon which did a good amount of Damage and it's almost out but he stood back up.
"Charmeleon, Fire spin!" Ash commanded
Charmeleon attacked with fire spin on Mr. Mime and it was surrounded by flames and Mr. Mime is burned and almost out but it was about to encounter it while burned
"Mr. Mime, Phychic." Sabrina Commanded
Mr. Mime launched a beam of Phychic at Charmeleon, doing a good amount of Damage and Knocking it out in the process, however, Mr. Mime was also knocked out due to Charmeleon's burn as both trainers recalled their Pokémon leaving others in shock.
"Damn!" Makoto thought "She's just as stronger as Ami said, although, Fire spin did get Mr. Mime burned so it did damage to itself in the process."
"Just as I thought! Sabrina's Phychic Pokémon is so overpowered and Ash isn't letting his guard down." Ami thought
"There's no way in hell I'm giving in!" Ash snapped while holding Beedrill's PokéBall "Let's go, Beedrill!"
Beedrill was sent out and materializes from it's PokéBall as it's ready for Sabrina to send out her next Pokémon.
"Jynx, come." Sabrina called
Jynx was sent out and materializes from it's PokéBall and Beedrill was about to battle.
"Beedrill, use Fell Stinger!" Ash commanded
Beedrill charged at Jynx with it's 3 stingers and poked it with them with Fell Stinger which is super effective however it was almost own and it was poisoned by the sting.
"Jynx, use Ice Punch." Sabrina commanded
Jynx charged her fist with ice powers and punched the Bee Pokémon, Being super effective and knocking out in the process and Jynx was knocked out due to it being poisoned to the shock of everyone, Sabrina recalls Jynx and Ash recalls Beedrill that it did great out there.
"Damn it! She's even stronger then ever." Ash said then gets out Pidgeotto's PokéBall "Pidgeotto, I Choose You!"
Pidgeotto sent out and materializes from it's PokéBall Pokémon and Sabrina is about to use her last Pokémon.
"Abra, go." She called
Abra was sent out and materializes from it's PokéBall. Pidgeotto was ready to attack and still flying, however to everyone's surprise, Abra doesn't make a move, even as Pidgeotto circles around it and he was very confused.
"Is Abra, sleeping?" Minako asked
"Man, this battle is seeming to be even more harder than I thought." Makoto said
"Why is Abra sleeping in the middle of an Official match?" Usagi asked "Is it underestimating us?"
"And Rei has also have an Abra." Chibiusa pointed out
Ash then gets out his PokéDex and analyzed Abra and info came in and it says: "Abra, a psychic power Pokémon. It sleeps eighteen hours a day, but deploys telekinesis, even while sleeping." And he putted his PokéDex away in his Pocket and knows what he's up against.
"Be careful Pidgeotto, this may be Sabrina's last Pokémon but this variety of Pokémon is unpredictable!" Ash warned then took a deep breath and prepared to use a command for the Bird Pokémon "Pidgeotto, wing attack!"
Pidgeotto charges it's wings but Sabrina's eyes glow red, and at the same time, Abra's eyes begin to open and glow red as well. Just as Pidgeotto charged at Abra with Wing Attack Abra disappears, to Pidgeotto's surprise, and reappears behind him, spooking him and shocking everyone else.
"What the hell?!" Ash cried "it used Teleport!"
"That's what I dislike about wild Abra, they always use Teleport before you can land an attack to weaken and capture them. The only way to catch a wild Abra is by paralyzing it or putting it to sleep." Makoto feared "and I think it's ready to evolve!"
"Foolish Humans." Sabrina scoffed
Sabrina begins to glow, and then Abra does too, only Abra glows bright white meaning it's evolving, The glow fades, and a new Pokémon is in Abra's place, Kadabra.
"I stand corrected." Makoto gulped
"Raichu…"
"Ash, watch out, Kadabra is now Sabrina's most strongest Pokémon! A Kadabra can emit alpha waves strong enough to induce headaches, make clocks run counter-clockwise, cause machines to malfunction, and even cause more delicate devices to stop working all together! And the more danger Kadabra faces, the stronger the waves become!" Ami warned "hang in there, Stay focused and remember the strategy that you and Mako came up with all night with Pidgeotto and Pikachu!"
"Pichu! Pichu!"
Ash then got out his PokéDex and analyzed Kadabra and info came up and it says: "Kadabra, a psychic Pokémon. The evolved form of Abra. It employs powerful telekinetic attacks." And he faced Kadabra.
"Pidgeotto, you and Pikachu have more speed than Kadabra, so we need to do our best!" Ash called
"Pikachu!"
"Pidgeotto, use Aerial Ace!" Ash commanded
Pidgeotto charged at Kadabra with Aerial Ace and it did a good amount of damage on Kadabra which the girls cheered Ash on for doing his best and it is revealed that Pidgeotto has learned Aerial Ace. However Sabrina has another trick up her sleeve."
"Recover." Sabrina commanded
Kadabra recovered from it's damages that Pidgeotto did form his Aerial Ace. leaving Ash and the others into a unexpected shock.
"It used recover?!" Minako asked
"Most Phychic type Pokémon can use recover to restore it's health from damage." Ami reminded "I don't think this will be really good for Ash I really hope he hangs in there."
"Pichu."
"Recover huh?" Ash sighed "That's a really useful move I'll give you that." Then he glared at Sabrina "But there's no way in the holy hell I'm gonna let that move stop me!"
"Oh really?" Sabrina glared "Kadabra, Confuson."
Kadabra redirects Pidgeotto to make sure he can't move and slams him into the wall knocking it out, leaving Ash and the others in shock and horror he recalls Pidgeotto back to his PokéBall.
"Oh my god!" Gasped Ash "Pidgeotto, are you ok?!"
"Holy hell, that's a one hit wonder!" Yelled Naru
"Ash is down to his last Pokémon!" Ami gasped "And Pikachu is one of his strongest Pokémon, he just learned thunder, one of Pikachu's most powerful moves and it may be able to knock out Kadabra in one hit."
"Pichu."
"And I don't think Pokémon evolving during battle is against the rules." Chibiusa said
"Pikachu, let's go!" Ash called
Pikachu raced towards the battlefield reluctant to face off against Kadabra but he swallowed his pride and put his fears away and faces Kadabra off. Ash then glared at Sabrina once more.
"Well Sabrina, I hate to break it to you but Kadabra won't get away from Pikachu!" Ash glared then smiled a smirk "No matter how many times Kadabra uses teleport, it's against the rules to leave the battlefield." Ash turned to Pikachu and tells him to use his most powerful attack he learned all night "Pikachu, fill up this whole Battlefield with lightning! Show them your gusty power and use your Thunder! Hit it with your best shock!"
"Everyone, get down!" Ami shouted
"Pichu!"
"Rai!"
"PIKA…..PIKAAAACHUUUUU!!!!!!!"
Pikachu uses one of his powerful attacks, Thunder to surround the Battlefield with lightning, nearly trapping Kadabra, and Ash's group got out of the way in time to not get shocked. However, before the Battlefield can even be surrounded, Kadabra uses it's psychic powers to control the attack, to everyone's surprise.
"Confusion." Sabrina commanded
Kadabra redirects the attack to Pikachu using Confusion, with the bolts of electricity taking the form of a dragon. Pikachu sees this and runs away, however Despite his running, the attack nails Pikachu, knocking him on his knees.
"Oh no! Pikachu!" Ash cried
"Oh no!" Ami shouted
"Psychic." Sabrina commanded while her eyes are glowing red
Kadabra's eyes also glow red as the newly evolved Pokémon uses telekinesis to make Pikachu stand and then making Pikachu dance under Kadabra's Control
"Pikachu, try to fight it off!" Ash said "Don't let Kadabra get to you!"
However it didn't work, Kadabra then slams Pikachu up to the ceiling using it's psychic power. And then Kadabra brings Pikachu back down with another slam, and then repeats over and over, and eventually Pikachu tries to get up but fails as it lays knocked out.
"Pikachu is unable to Battle, Kadabra wins!" The announcer called
Ash flinched and was horrified and his eyes went wide with shock and defeat he had lost not only his first Gym Battle. But his first Battle, his heart skipped a beat as he rushed over to Pikachu and picks up his electric type Pokémon and held him in his arms, Usagi and the girls rushed to his side and Ash froze in shock.
"Pikachu, Are you ok?!" Ash asked
"Pika Pi."
"No……" Ash said then took a breath and let out a defeated scream "NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!"
"Oh no! Ashy! Pikachu!" Ami cired as she held his hand
"Ash, are you and Pikachu ok?!" Usagi asked
Ash and Pikachu didn't respond as he looked ashamed of himself and defeated for his first loss Rei putted her hand on Ash's shoulder and Erika felt really bad for the duo, Sabrina and her Doll however smiled mischievously as the Doll's eyes started glowing.
"Ok, as you promised you will become my fiends and play with me." The doll smiled
The doll's eyes glow red as Ash, Ami, Chibiusa, Makoto, Minako, Naru, Erika, Rei,Usagi, Pikachu, Raichu, Pichu, Luna and Artemis are teleported away and wind up in what looks like a small town neighborhood.
"Where in the world are we?" Ami asked
"We must be in a town." Naru said "More like a Ghost town."
"I think we should look around and I'll carry a frozen Ash." Makoto said while she picked up Ash and Pikachu then held him in her arms.
The gang enters the house and look around and Usagi called if there's anybody home while Ami turns to the group.
"Girls, it's rude to just barge in here without knocking on the door." Ami said sternly "Come on, let's get out of here."
Makoto looked and Ash and Pikachu woke up on Makoto's arms and his head is laying on her big breasts and The 3 Spots someone in the bathroom and Ash let out a startled Yelp.
"Ah!" Ash yelped "I'm so sorry ma'am we thought nobody was home and I just woke up on Mako's arms!"
"Hey, Ash are you feeling ok?" Makoto asked
"Yeah." Ash answered while feeling blue
"Pika. Pikachu."
"Rai. Raichu."
Ash, Makoto, Pikachu and Raichu looked and notices that the person is actually a doll and head back to the gang, as Ami told the gang what's really going on.
"Everyone, this is a dollhouse!" Ami cried "This explains who the town is very empty, Sabrina teleported is into her play set, and we shrank to the size of dolls!"
"That explains it!" Ash said
"Pika!"
"I'm glad to see Ash be a little normal, but still if there's a play set I want, I don't want this one!" Minako whined
Soon, everyone feels what they think is an earthquake and the the roof on the house moves to reveal a giant Sabrina, leaving the gang horrified.
"Come on, play with me." Said Sabrina's doll
Sabrina's doll laughs as Sabrina reaches down for our heroes
"Run!" Usagi cried
"Kaaaa!!!"
Right on cue, everyone runs for their lives, just narrowly getting out of Sabrina's reach and out of the dollhouse and Makoto is still carrying Ash and Pikachu. This reminded Naru of something.
"She is as big as that Tentacruel we encountered!" Naru screeched
"Ami was right, the Houses, the cars, the trees, the grass, everything is a toy!" Erika shouted "We've been teleported into Sabrina's toy box!"
"Damn it!" Ash thought as he feels more blue "I shouldn't have putted the girls in danger because I lost against Sabrina!"
Our heroes continue to run as Sabrina and her doll watch them as they reach a dead end, they're Surrounded. Soon, giant thumps are heard behind our heroes, they turn and see Sabrina's doll walking and bouncing its ball.
"Come on, let's play together." Said Sabrina's doll and drops her ball and it headed towards our heroes
"We're going to be crushed!" Usagi screeched
"And we'll be flat as pankackes!" Minako screamed
"Now I know how Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk felt when he first saw the giant!" Chibiusa squeaked "Fe Fi Fo! We spot trouble, and here it does come!"
"We're done for!" Artemis screamed
Sabrina's doll laughs, but just before the ball reaches them and flat them like pankcakes, the stranger from earlier appears in front of them calls for them to gather their thoughts toward him they all do so and Everyone teleports out of the toy box just as the ball crashes into the picture frame and bounces off it and right back to Sabrina's doll, who picks it up. Sabrina just looks in annoyance.
Meanwhile, our heroes reappear outside the Saffron City Gym. And everyone is relieved to be out of the Toy Box and Everyone looks and sees the stranger standing in front of them.
"Thank you sir, for saving us." Ash thanked while still feeling blue
"Yeah, if it wasn't for that we all would've died." Usagi sighed happily
"But why did you decided to save us?" Erika asked
The Jogger answered "Sabrina is a dangerous Pokémon trainer. I got the chance to help you this time, but next time you won't be so lucky. You'll all be trapped in her toy box for eternity."
Everyone is shocked by what they just heard, as for Ash he now felt angry and frustrated towards himself for not only his first loss but his first Gym Battle loss he turned away from the group, his His fists were clenched and his arms were shaking a little, the girls looked at Ash with sad eyes and worried looks on their faces. The Jogger sees this and couldn't help but feel worried.
"Ash, a…are you ok?" Ami asked softly
"I know this is your first loss, but we can figure out another way to beat Sabrina, so please talk to us and let us help you." Usagi said
At this point, Ash snapped but still turned away not facing the gang cause he doesn't want them to see him in defeat.
"Damn it! How the hell could I let Sabrina beat me like that?!" Ash snapped "If I would've come up with a better strategy, and trained my Pokémon better, I would've never put you girls in danger in the clutches of Sabrina, and I couldn't do anything to help you!"
"Pika Pi…"
Ami, Chibiusa, Erika, Makoto, Minako, Naru, Rei, Usagi, Raichu, Pichu, Pikachu, Luna and Artemis are stunned by Ash's outburst and he couldn't take his first loss very lightly like everyone else, Ami's and Usagi's eyes widen with horror and shock and now brimming with tears.
"A-Ash…..Please let us…" Ami spoke in a timid voice and tears in her eyes
"….Help you…" Usagi spoke while her voice is breaking
"Just leave me alone!" Ash shouted in frustrated tears as He then bolted running as fast as his legs could carry him back to the Hotel in defeat with Pikachu running after him and followed.
"Ashy! Wait! Just let us…" Erika called as the Jogger stops her
"Let him go, he needs some time to breathe." The Jogger said
Ami, Usagi, Minako, Naru, Rei, Chibiusa, Erika, Rei and Makoto looked on as Ash dashes away from him Even Luna and Artemis couldn't help but be shocked by Ash's outburst as he is not taking his first loss very well. Makoto had a sad look at Ash running back to the hotel and then she remembered that she too had her first loss with an enemy before she met Ash. She had her first loss that is very similar.
An flashback, The Sailor Guardians were up against a powerful Daimon that was huge as it was powerful, Sailor Moon, Mercury, Mars and Venus tried to dog pile her but ends up getting tossed into the air. Sailor Jupiter then dashed towards the Daimon.
"Leave it to me! Physical strength is my specialty!" Sailor Jupiter shouted
The Guardian of Thunder then locked hands with one another, each one trying to overpower the other. But it was not enough for Jupiter as she gets tossed to the ground.
"Damn it!" Sailor Jupiter cursed
Not backing down Sailor Jupiter unleashed one of her attacks
"Sparkling Wide Pressure!"
She threw her disc of Lightning, hoping to do some damage, but the Daimon canceled it out, much to Sailor Jupiter's disbelief. Sailor Moon stepped in Spiral Heart Moon Rod, used her signature attack.
"MOON SPIRAL HEART ATTACK!"
With a blast the Daimon was destroyed, the Sailor Guardians celebrated their victory, But Sailor Jupiter wasn't happy as she stood there silent and in defeat.
The flashback ends when it comes back to the sad girls feeling Bad about Ash's first loss and Makoto in tears took a deep breath and thought as Rei looks on wanting to do something to cheer up Ash.
"Ashy, I know exactly how you feel." Makoto thought "I had my first loss just as similar as yours, I really wish me and Rei could do something to cheer you up."
"Mako, we have to do something to cheer him up." Rei said to the tall busty brunette "I don't want him to be sad forever, since he did a lot nice for us, we have to do the same for him."
As Ash races away to the hotel in defeat of his first loss with Pikachu following him the girls look on sad wanting to help Ash out since he was very kind to them, Makoto remembered as she had a very similar first loss that he did and she and Rei definitely want to help him pull him out of his depression, will they cheer up Ash to help get back his confidence?
