Part: 8

I wandered into the Pokemon Centre. The way things were going I was having a pretty 
good day. I walked up to the Nurse Joy not bothering to look around the centre. "Hey 
Nurse Joy!" I say cheerfully.

"Hello, may I do something for you?" She asked politly.

"Could you heal my Pokemon?" She nodded and took my Pokeballs and Pikachu. She 
then dissapeared into the back. I walked into the lobby and sat on the couch. I took out 
my Lasana Badge and stared at it. "Wow!"

"Zac?" A girl's voice startled me. I knew who's it was too. It was Misty's. Right next to 
Misty was Brock.

"Uh...wha? Oh...hello." I didn't even notice them! How didn't I see them? 

"Hello." 

"Have any luck finding 'Ash'?" I ask trying to sound natural.

"No." Brock answered sadly. 

They both looked down despite their sadness. 

"ASH! YOUR POKEMON ARE READY!" My face went from nervous to terrified. How 
did she know my name? What are Brock and Misty going to do? Misty and Brock's face 
shot up and looked around the room and then to me. They wouldn't keep their eyes off 
me. "What..." I asked, extreamly nervous.

"Ash?" Misty asked. I shook my head 'no'. A sweat drop went down the side of my face 
when they didn't beleive me. To my relief a boy about three years older than me walked 
up to Nurse Joy and accepted his Pokemon. Misty's face looked down and stared. Brock 
just looked away.

"Sorry." Misty says, sobbing. Brock didn't say a thing. He just sat there. 

I went up to Nurse Joy to ask her to call me Zac.

A great deal of time went by and Brock nor Misty had said a word. 

Alec then walked in and took his worn out Pokemon to Nurse Joy. He walked up to me 
and flashed his own Lasana Badge. I smile and compliment him.

"Good Job." 

"Thanks, Ash!" He says full of joy. At that moment I ran straight out of the Pokemon 
Centre with Alec, Brock, and Misty staring at my figure dissapearing. 

"ASH, WAIT UP!" Soon everybody was after me. I tried to make as many turns as 
possible.

When I turned into an alley way something wasn't right. Something was wrong. 
Something transported me. A phycic Pokemon perhaps? I noticed myself and my friends, 
including Pikachu in a cage. A cage with a big red R on it. 

"Team Rocket!" I accused. It wasn't Jessie, James, and Meowth this time!
