He had been doing that a lot lately after saving Pikachu. He hated his life before this, all the killing and hiding to survive. But now he had Pikachu and things had to get better But it could only get so much better, the world was still in trouble He used to not care, he was so upset by what had happened he didn't deal with anyone "Pi Pika chu" Pikachu said from his shoulder still happy to be with Ash 'I know Pikachu" Ash said "I'm happy to see you too" "I don't mean to bust your chops, but what now" Jeff asked from the rock he was sitting on 'I don't know" Ash said dumbly "we are near viridian, lets find a place top hide." "You know we could....." Jeff started but was interrupted by Ash "Ssssshhhhh" Ash said quickly pulling Jeff down to the ground Both Ash and Pikachu tensed up and looked into the bushes across the clearing "Pikachu" Ash whispered, "go around back and thundershock it out" Pikachu without a reply ran out and did what Ash had said All of a sudden a loud scream erupted as the person fell to the ground "Oh my god" Ash said as he recognized the unconscious figure "What" Jeff said "It's Richie' Ash said still dumbfounded ******************************************************************************** Later in a cave they had scouted out Ash and Co. are talk to Richie "Is that really you" Ash said skeptically "Yes" Richie said still groggily rubbing his head "Prove it" Ash said not willing to be fooled by a transformed Pokemon "Remember when we both promised each other by the lake to become The best Pokemon Master's in the universe" Richie said "It is you" Ash said not believing it, running over and hugging Richie " I now have two of my old friends with me if only she were here." Richie, gasping for air "A... ash, I need air" "Sorry" Ash said "We have to go it isnt safe here at night" Richie said Ash a little confused, "Where?" "To our headquarters" Richie said "A what???" Ash said confused "An underground" Richie said ******************************************************************************** The gang arrives in a dense forest "So where is this base" Jeff asked "Watch" Richie said as he approached a large flat rock Richie put his hand to the rock and one of the large Sequoia's trunks opened revealing an elevator "Follow me" Richie said at the two others Ash and Jeff looked at each other skeptically but followed anyway As the three boarded the elevator Richie started to talk "The base is located two miles underground to ensure no pokemon can find us" Richie said adjusting the strap on his shoulder "Who funded all this" Ash said "Team Rocket" Richie said The rest of the time they were silent as they descended deep into the earth ******************************************************************************** "A group of well armed men can take over that sector" One man said "It's not worth the risk" A woman practically growled reverberating around the large war room "I have to agree with her" The man next to her said "To hell with risk, we need to attack" The first man said "To hell with me" the woman said menacingly "to hell with you if you try this, all our men would be going there if they tried that. Why don't you open you god damn eyes and see that?" "But" the man started but was interrupted when a man ran into the room "Richie is back" the messenger said "with company" Everyone got up and ran to the entrance of the underground They were caught off guard when they were cut off by Ash running toward them "Why Hello" The man that had sat next to the girl said "let me introduce ourse..." Instead Ash ran up to the pair and grabbed them by the throat and lifted them up "I know who the hell you are, you are Jessie and James of Team Rocket." ******************************************************************************** "What, what's the matter" Jessie said Then all of a sudden the rest of the men finally noticed the pikachu "Watch out a pokemon" they yelled leveling guns Ash, forced by the sudden incident was forced to drop Jessie and James, ran over and blocked Pikachu "He will not attack" Ash said The general from the war room said "How can you be so sure young man, all pokemon are dangerous." "I am Ash, the Pokemon Master and he is my Pokemon" he said "The pipsqueak" James said eyes widening "And you" Ash said turning pointing his finger at team rocket "almost made me lose him forever for your own selfish reasons" Jessie walked forward "We didn't realize..." she started "I don't want you god damn reasons" Ash said "Pika" Pikachu yelled scowling at the pair "Listen to me" Jessie said holding her hands up to show surrender "we were under orders to capture Pikachu or we would be killed." "You could of come to me to protect you" Ash said, still angry but a little less so "We were sorry about it" James said whining "plus we went looking for him so we might be able to make it up some how." "Pika Pika chu" Pikachu said (Well I guess than you cant be that bad) "Don't make any assumptions" Ash said "Just give us a chance" Jessie said "Fine, one wrong move and you dead" Ash said "Well I don't trust you" the general said "and that POKEMON" "I trust him more than any of you in this room" Ash growled "General Mashin, stop this now" James barked "You don't command me" he said "we work together" "Both of you to stop or I'll use my mallet on you" Jessie said "Men, kill that pokemon and it's trainer" Mashin said The men leveled their weapon's at the pair of them and encircled them "Don't make me kill your men" Ash said "You kill all of them" Mashin laughed, "I doubt it" "Stop this now" Jessie and James said as one "Attack" Mashin said "Pikachu, attack at will" Ash said Pikachu started to shock all the men into dropping their guns Ash ran behind one of the men and snapped his neck Before the other man could react he kicked another in the chest through a tree. He was down for the count A man leveled his gun at Ash who was currently fighting a man hand to hand Pikachu saw this and used and electric drill attack, drilling through his middle The battle raged on with more and more people going in and being killed or injured "Stooooooooop" Mashin yelled "Why didn't you tell them to stop" Ash said to Jessie and James, feeling bad at having to kill so many people "There his men we could not stop it" Jessie said "Mashin you are officially dishonorably discharged" "What a waste" James said "12 dead and 20 unconscious" "Guards escort Mashin out of here" Jessie said "Follow me" Jessie and James said to Ash and Pikachu "we'll clean you up, feed you, then we talk" ******************************************************************************** Later in the private kitchen hall Ash, Jeff, Jessie, and James were talking "Well it sure has been awhile" Jessie said to Ash "Who is your friend pip..." James started out of habit "Ash." "Jeff is a runaway slave" Ash said pointing to Jeff "Seems like you still have that habit of Picking up companions" Jessie said "You did" Jeff said obviously dumbfounded by what was going on "This is not the time for that" Ash said "Why don't you go outside" Ash said to Jeff "No way" Jeff said "NOW" Ash said Jeff obviously startled by Ash's manner left "So now th.." James started "Hold on" Ash said Ash walked over to the door Jeff had just left and quickly opening it, making Jeff face vault With Jeff unconscious Ash dragged him farther out into the hallway, went back into the kitchen and closed the door "What is this all about" Ash asked "I know you wouldn't have this much secrecy unless it was something very big you wanted to tell me." "Yes there is something big going on" James said "and you're the best one for the job." Jessie pulled out a mallet and hit James with it, "Let me explain it to you" Jessie said "We have found a way to free the humans and pokemon alike from the evil entity behind the empire" Jessie started then hesitated ******************************************************************************** "How" Ash said with a rare glint of his old hopeful kid in him "A crystal, the Freedom's crystal" James said rubbing his head as he got off the floor "Only we could never get to it" Jessie said "It is so well guarded any attempt means a long agonizing death to who ever would dare enter." Ash reverted to his old self, gloomy and with out hope Pikachu patted his shoulder in comfort "Until now" James said Ash seemed to perk up a little "How" "You" Jessie said, "as much as I used to not believe it you are our only hope." "And why do you think I will make a difference" Ash said with an edge of sarcasm "A prophecy says "Only the Master and His pokemon shall remain free and in the highest point of freedoms light he shall prevail over darkness and bring forth Freedom to the land." James recited slowly letting every detail soak in. "So I'm the worlds savior" Ash looked skeptically "yeah right" Pikachu shares Ash's look of disbelief "You are the only one able to make it through all the protection" James said "Please help us" Jessie said with a rare show of caring "we cant hold out much longer, soon the human race will be destroyed." Then the most surprising thing happened, she cried "All I ever wanted to do was settle down with James, and live happily ever after" She sobbed as James held her "now our daughter has to live like this." This hit Ash with a shock and Pikachu fell off his shoulder at what they had just heard, Jessie and James had a kid. Ash walked over and put an arm around Jessie, she shook it off and got up and regained her composure, "I didn't know" Ash said "It's ok" she said "Jajara, can you come in here" A girl about 5 years old walked out holding onto a dirty ripped up doll She wore a dirty skirt and blouse, "Yes mommy what is it" she asked shyly "I would like you to meet Ash Ketchum the pokemon Master" She pointed to Ash "Hello Mr. Ketum" she said mispronouncing the word She then looked up and saw Pikachu, she screamed and ran to a corner "Its alright" James said to her "Yeah see" Ash said holding out Pikachu Pikachu ran over to the girl and curled up in her lap determined to get some sleep The girl seeing that the Pikachu was harmless started to rub its fur as Ash, Jessie, and James sat back down to discuss the Freedom's Crystal "So where can I find this crystal, and what do I do with it when I get it" Ash asked "We have finally located the crystal but we do not know what to do with it when you get it" James said sadly "Fine tell me what you know then" Ash said "That is why we sent Richie out he is the best," Jessie said. "Richie please come in here" James said over the intercom Richie ran in, winked at Ash then saluted "Yes sir" "You are to accompany Ash to the freedoms crystal" James said Instead of Arguing Ash quickly agreed, happy to be with his friend "You are dismissed, Richie" Jessie said "get your things ready to go" Richie saluted and ran off Ash said goodbye and Picked up Pikachu then turned away from the reformed team rocket knowing no new words would help As Ash was about to leave when Jajara blocked his way "Please do your best Mr. Ketum" she said teary eyed then moved away Ash walked out of the room with a slight glimmer of hope in his heart He meet up with Jeff when he asked "So where to now" "Where going to save the world kid where going to save the world" He said jokingly The two walked off to meet up with Richie. **********************************End of Part 3********************************* About what I said before, I was wrong.
