Chapter 7

After arriving in front of a cave, we open the door and turn on the lights, Misty, Brock, and Yellow are surprised to see one of our houses, the "Rock Type" manor.

"Welcome to one of our own houses." I say with a smile.

"You have your own house?" Misty asks. "And this isn't a house... it's a cave..."

Insey sits on the chair and says, "It certainly is a cave, and this place can also become a Gym if we want to."

"But why is it Rock Type? What does that mean?" Yellow asks.

"This place has a training field that is suited for Rock Type Pokemon. Ash, Lillie, Alice, and I promise we're going to capture all of the Pokemon."

"As you can see this place is empty because we just started our journey and we haven't caught any Rock Type Pokemon yet." I say.

"But how were you able to get this place for yourselves?" Brock asks. "You were still underage after all."

"You're right, this house doesn't belong to any of us, it belongs to our parents. As for how we got this place, let's say this used to be a Team Rocket base."

"Team Rocket base?" The three exclaim in shock.

"If you don't know, Team Rocket used to be a giant terrorizing organization. Not like those three who have been doing nothing but fooling around stalking us for my Pikachu." I say. "My father is the leader of Team Alpha, I'm sure you all heard about this name."

"I do. Team Alpha is an organization that works with the International Police and the Pokemon League to stop evil organizations from rising. But some say that their methods were quite brutal. Wait, you're the son and the daughter of the leaders?"

"Of course we are." Insey says. "Our mother used to be a spy sent by Team Rocket to infiltrate our organization and her goal was to kill our father, but in the end, she decided to deflect from Team Rocket after being unable to fulfill her mission because of love. After she betrayed Team Rocket, she also sold out the bases from all the regions to us, and thus this is also why we have this for ourselves."

"You mean Team Rocket used to be in other regions as well?" Misty asks.

"After a huge loss, they could only stay in Kanto and Johto." I say.

Yellow says, "Hey, Serena. May I ask you a question? How did you and Ash meet in the first place?"

Serena blushes a little and smiles, "We met on the day when we were having a Summer Camp when we were seven. Back then I injured my knee, Ash was the one who found me and treated my wounds, and she also helped me get out of the forest since I was lost."

I slightly blush a little as the memories are coming back to me. Misty says, "And you keep saying about Lillie and Alice as well. Who are those two?"

I say, "Lillie is the daughter of the presidents of the Aether Foundation, while Alice is the daughter of the two gym leaders in the Kalos Region. Although the four of us want to travel together, Lillie and Alice had to wait for one or two years before they could take the trainer's test and get the license."

"So Lillie and Alice are younger than you?" Brock asks.

"Lillie is half a month younger than me, while Alice is a year." I say.

Then we decide to show them each of the rooms, after looking around the area, Misty notices a locked room, and she asks, "Ash, what is that?"

I open the door and they are surprised to see a lot of jewels and treasure. "This is the treasure room. With the help of the Hoenn Champion Steven Stone, we learned how to mine for jewels and rare stones, we like to collect them and made them into accessories."

"You mean you guys made these all by yourselves?" Brock asks after seeing an amethyst tiara.

"Of course we do. It's not that hard." Insey says.

"And maybe I should bring this as well." I pick up the gloves and one of them has the Key Stone on it. "With this, I'll be able to Mega Evolve."

"You even have Key Stones as well...what about Mega Stones?" Yellow asks.

"We still need to find them ourselves." Serena sighs.

"Not that hard? Are you serious?" Misty mutters.

Then we decide to show another room: The Fossil Room. I also decide to pick up the Helix Fossil and the Dome Fossil and put them in my bag. Brock notices the Fossil restoration machine and asks, "Hey, Ash. If you have a Fossil Restoration machine, why don't you just revive your own fossil instead?"

"For safety measures." I say. "I think it will be safer if we revive them in Cinnabar Lab. And that's all the rooms we have here. Now I think we should take a rest."


The next day, Ash decides to help Yellow capture some Pokemon of her own. She helps her defeat the first wild Pokemon: A Rattata, and captures it for her own team. She decides to name it Ratty. Then the two of them decide to capture their first Rock Type Pokemon together. Their targets are Geodude, which lives on Mt Moon.

Geodude: The Rock Pokemon: Rock and Ground Type. Found in fields and mountains. Mistaking them for boulders, people often step or trip on them.

Yellow decides to name her Geodude Gravvy, while I don't think I want to give nicknames.

"Ash! Our treasure room has been attacked!" When we hear Insey's voice, we rush back and find Team Rocket starting their motto.

"You three again?" I say with annoyance. "And you ruined our living place."

"Those treasures will belong to us now." Jessie says.

"And to think you twerps have a lot of them as well. Who knows how much money will we get once we sell them." Meowth says.

"Sorry, but you won't be leaving with our own properity." I say as we send out Charmander, Pikachu, and Spearow to battle. Jessie and James of course send out their usual Ekans and Koffing. We manage to defeat them again and send them blasting off from our house once again.

"Just great... how are we going to fix the holes?" Insey asks after seeing the hole that Team Rocket made and the hole that they used to send them blasting off.

I say, "I'll call my Dad and see how he will do it."

After calling my father and informing them about what happened, he suddenly appears through a mirror and says, "You mean Team Rocket did those?"

"Well, one is, but the other one isn't. We had to send them flying." I say.

Then my father sighs as he sends out Gigalith, Lycanroc, and Tyranitar, and the three of them start to fix the holes. Yellow asks Serena, "Hey, how did he appear in the mirror? And what's going on here?"

"Or, there is a world known as the Distortion World. With Giratina's help, it gives us an easier journey." Serena says. "I guess Mr. Ketchum use Giratina to come from Sevestar to here."

While his Pokemon are fixing, my father turns to Misty and Brock, he says, "Well if it isn't the Pewter City Gym Leader and the Cerulean City Gym Leader? What are you doing here?"

Misty tenses up after the man say her title, Insey says, "Wait, you are a Gym Leader, Misty? And you never told us?"

Brock explains his reason to my Dad about traveling with us, and he seems to understand, as for Misty, she seems to hide something from us. But if she's really the Gym Leader, she doesn't act like one after all.

Then we decide to bid farewell to our father while we continue our journey to Cerulean City, although it seems like Misty is refusing to go back to Cerulean City. Isn't she the Gym Leader? Why would she be scared of returning to her own gym?

Then we continue to move forward and on the way, and we find some Paras on the way. Insey says, "Are you serious? Do Paras live on Mt. Moon? I'm definitely going to catch it!"

And Misty, as usual, is afraid of Bug Types, so she is hiding behind Brock. "Don't tell me you are scared of a Paras as well."

Misty says, "Are you crazy? Do you know that the mushrooms on Paras's back are the ones sucking the energy of the Paras? And once it evolves into the Parasect, there was nothing left with the bug body but the giant mushroom!"

"That might be true, but I just think that you watched too many movies. It's true that there are some movies about mushrooms or some slime parasites onto humans and then controlling them or turning them into zombies. But that only happens to Paras and Parasect." Serena says. "Besides, Parasect's mushroom can be used as potions of course."

"Just don't let it get close to me!" Misty says.

"Suit yourself. I'm going to capture the Paras." I say, but then I see one Paras crawling in fear, and I ask, "Are you perhaps scared?"

Pikachu tries to approach the Paras, but Paras just keeps going backward. "You don't need to be scared, we're not going to harm you. Do you want to come with us?"

The Paras stare at Pikachu and me, then he starts to relax a little. I also manage to capture it in the end.

Paras: The Mushroom Pokemon: Bug and Grass Type. Burrows to suck tree roots. The mushrooms on its back grow by drawing nutrients from the bug host.

Insey also manages to capture her own Paras, and then we decide to continue forward. Serena and I will also try our best to make sure that Paras becomes stronger.

And finally, we are at Route 4, there are two Pokemon that Serena and I capture. One is an Ekans, who I used Butterfree to battle and capture it. And the other one is a Sandshrew, which Serena finds special because it can actually swim underwater despite being a Ground Type.

Ekans: The Snake Pokemon: Poison Type. Moves silently and stealthily. Eats the eggs of birds, such as Pidgey and Spearow, whole.

Sandshrew: The Mouse Pokemon: Ground Type. Burrows deep underground in arid locations far from water. It only emerges to hunt for food.

"It seems like Cerulean City is just a few miles away." Yellow says after seeing the sign.

"Hey, there is something else written in here." Brock says.

"Well, it's not that surprising if some silly kids trying to write some silly notes." Just then, I realize what writing is. "Gary was here! Ash is a loser!"

Suddenly, I feel my blood boiling and say, "That Gary..."

Serena says, "That was nice, I know he has a giant ego, but this is going too far..."

Insey says, "We can just ignore that, or maybe Brother can do something about it."

Then before we leave, I decide to switch my name and Gary's name before leaving. "Much better." I sigh after seeing the words becoming "Ash was here! Gary is a loser!"
