It was nightful. Ash, May, Misty, Brock, and Max were all in Ash's room, where they were chatting about stuff. But it all came down to Max's important announcement...
"So I used my Torkoal against his Roselia!" Ash laughed.
May and Misty giggled, while Max and Brock let out chuckles.
"Hey Ash, that was a great battle you told us," Brock complimented, standing up, "But you'll never believe this. My party of characters..." Everyone gasped. "Is gone!" Everyone gasped louder.
Ash blinked in surprise. "Wow, Brock. You must have scared them off. He let out a hearty laughed.
Brock chuckled a bit, and he also growled. "Hehehehe...you watch your mouth, you little smart-ass..." He muttered angrily to himself, before going on in his normal voice, "Anyway, meet my newest partner - Hikari!"
Hikari popped her head into the room. "Hi, y'all!" She walked in, showing her spazzy black shirt and her pink mini skirt.
Ash and Max both nosebleed, while May and Misty growled with envy.
"B-Brock, how did you manage to get to get such a cute girl on your team?" Ash asked, still in disbelief.
Brock chuckled. "Well, that's for you all to wait and see. She'll be my partner with me for the remainder of the entire Grand Prix, starting with the next race!"
"Yeah!" Hikari added enthusiastically, walking over to Ash and giving him a kiss on his cheek. "Who knows, maybe we can be boyfriend and girlfriend..." She giggled.
Ash blushed, sweat coming down to his hands. "Uh...uh..."
Misty growled, getting her mallet ready. "If that country girl thinks she'll get a hold of my Ashy..."
May also fumed, albiet less than Misty's rage, but still annoyed. "Grrrr...stupid, annoying mini-skirt girl...I'd like to get my hands on her..."
Max shook his head. "Speaking of announcements, I also happen to have my own." He stood next to Ash. "Starting with this race and all the other races to come, I will be Ash Ketchum's partner!"
"WHAT!?" Everyone shouted in disbelief, namely Ash and May.
"Max!" Ash said, "Do you REALLY want to be my partner?"
Max frowned, and as he started dwadling his fingers, he said, "Well, your Pokemon could use a little help, and you could use someone to talk to. Plus, I've been a thorn of sorts on May's side."
May nodded. "He's right, Ash..." She was nudged by Misty.
Max cleared his throat, and he got down on the ground, begging. "PLEASE!! Can I be your partner, Ash?"
Ash thought of this. "Hmmm...let me think of it..." He let out a short answer. "No."
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!" Max started crying, rubbing his water-producing eyes, "You're so cruel!" He ran out of the room, still crying.
May gave Ash a nasty look. "Oh, Ash! Why did you have to do that and make Max upset?"
Ash folded his arms. "Well, I don't want to have a partner on my team! My good Pokemon are enough!" He argued.
Misty bonked Ash on the head with her mallet. "Ash! You DO realize that with another companion around, your Pokemon can be healed better, and you can consentrate on driving, right?" She asked.
Ash moaned, swirleys in his eyes after being bonked. "I...guess...so..."
Brock sighed, shaking his head. "Just think about it, Ash. You may never kknow what might happen." He left the room.
Hikari nodded in agreement. "I agree with Brock on this one. Just give it some good thought." She skipped along, following Brock out of the room.
May looked at Misty. "Hey Misty, you think training our Pokemon for the race seems like a good idea?"
Misty smiled, nodding. "Yes! Let's go do that right away!"
May giggled. "Okay!"
And the two girls left the room, leaving Ash Ketchum all by himself. He managed to get out of his knocked out state and started pondering. "Hmmm...Max being a partner doesn't seem bad..." Ash whispered to himself in thought, "But what can Max provide me other than healing my Pokemon...?"
Meanwhile, in the McDonald's in the hotel below the racers' rooms, we can see Peach and Zelda socializing with each other. Dr. Hoshi can be seen tuning the Turbo Yoshi outside. Banjo and Kazooie enter the McDonald's, appearing as if they went through a cowboy rally.
Peach gasped. "Banjo, Kazooie! What happened to you two?"
Kazooie chuckled, rubbing her body. "Oh, we were just training ourselves for the next race."
Zelda looked at Banjo's dirtied body. "Hmmm...seems like you two were in a rally."
Banjo rubbed the back of his head. 'Well, actually, we were preparing our racing skills, and on the way..."
"Oh shush up, Banjo." Kazooie said, as she sat down next to Peach and sipped a milkshake.
Zelda pulled up another chair. "Hey Banjo, why don't you join us?" She smiled.
Banjo shrugged, smiling. "Oh, what the heck." He sat down, and he got out a sandwich, with honey covered in it.
Peach and Zelda looked at each other in dismay, and turned to Banjo. "A sandwich with honey?" They said in disbelief, slightly disgusted.
Banjo nodded, munching down on his honey sandwich. "Yeah! Isn't it tasty?"
Kazooie laughed. 'You gotta love 'im! He has a knack for honey, after all!" She resumed to drinkind her milkshake.
Peach shuddered. "Ewwww...I think...I lost my appetite..." She said, frowning.
Zelda patted Peach on the back. "Don't stress yourself, Peach. I also lost my appetite..." She added, comforting Peach.
