The New Rocket
By Tracey's Skethbook


Cassidy leaned against the wall in bordomThey had been thrown in jail for trying to steal a trainer's Dragonite."How long have we been in here?"She asked her partner."Four days."Butch said simply in his frog-like voice.Cassidy hung her head."And many more to go."she said sadly.The Boss,so far,hadn't come to bail them out and they simply thought he just hadn't heard they were in jail."Don't worry,Cassidy.The Boss'll come and bail us out soon."but Cassidy could tell he didn't turly believe what he was saying.

They were interrupted by a sharp squawk coming from the main office.The door opened and a girl about the age of fourteen was pushed in."I didn't did it! I swear I wouldn't kill anything,even if my life depended on it!"Officer Jenny jerked open Butch and Cassidy's cell door and threw the girl in.She hit the floor with a thud and quickly turned over to face the officer."A likely story."Officer Jenny shut the cell door and headed for the main office again.The girl eyed the cells around her and said."This is how gloomy a jail looks?"she shrugged."Whatcha do?"Butch asked.The girl whirled around and looked him dircetly in the eye."More like what didn't do.They throw a me in jail just for pasing a store where an attempted murder took place.I saw some lady that looked hurt,so I went over to see if I could do anything.The officers leapt out of nowhere and grabbed me.I was taken to  Officer Jenny's car and thrown in like a rag doll.I heard that lady trying to say something to the officers,but they ignored her.The only pharse I caught was 'the suspect was a guy.'then we were gone."

She suddenly caught sight of their unifroms and tried to move away."You're Team Rocket?""Don't worry,kid.We're more interested in stealing rare Pokemon then hurting childern."Cassidy said,getting up to stretch her legs."Who are you,anyway?"Butch asked.The girl looked up and said."I'm known as Bandit.""Bandit?"Cassidy asked."I'm a great criminal."Bandit said."But,I thought you said you were inoccent."Butch said in surprise.Bandit smiled slyly."I said I didn't commit murders,but I never said I didn't steal.I don't steal for pleasure,though.I take what we need to live."Before another question could be asked,Officer Jenny walked through the now open door,followed by a small jury and a judge."We decided to do it here."Officer Jenny infromed Bandit."What are rip off."muttered Bandit.This little trial took about two hours.Butch and Cassidy leaned against the jail wall and listened to what Bandit had to say."We find the defendent...."Bandit held her breath."Not gulity."

The jury began to get up and leave when Officer Jenny said quietly to Bandit."You may go,but be quick."Bandit looked at her campanions."May I take them with me?"Officer Jenny shook her head."Unless someone bails them out,which is doubtful,they have to pay for trying to steal a wealthy trainer's Dragonite."Bandit shrugged and was led out.On the fifth day."Butch,Cassidy,you have a visitor."Officer Jenny led in an old jail mate."Bandit! What the heck are you doing here?""We've come to bail you out."Officer Jenny overheard."And I have a note from the Boss about bailing you."Bandit continued.She showed it to Officer Jenny,who sighed disappointed,and released Butch and Cassidy.They reconized the Boss' hand writing."How'd you get the note signed from Boss himself?"Cassidy asked as Bandit led the way toward Team Rocket headquarters.

"I asked for a job from him because I'm homeless and he gave it to me.Then I told him about you two.He said he needed you,but had to go to some meeting,so I volunteered to bail you."When she finished,she pulled out two pokeballs and fingered them."May we see your Pokemon?"Cassidy asked.Bandit nodded and threw both pokeballs."Racer,Moon Eyes,come on out and meet my new friends and fellow Rockets."The first Pokemon to appear with Racer.It was a Rapidash with long,well groomed mane.Moon Eyes was a Politoed with shiny eyes and a happy-go-lucky smile."Come on.The Boss'll be back at the headquarters in about a half hour."Bandit said checking her watch."But it'll take even longer to get to the headquarters from here."Butch pointed out."Not with Racer here."she jerked her thumb at the Rapidash.

The three of the climbed on Racer's back and away they went.There was still five minutes when they got in the headquarters."I suggest we get to his office before he gets back.Then he can see I'm worth being here."She added quietly."If you're one of us,why don't you have a unifrom?"Bandit turned toward them."The Boss probably wanted to make sure I'm worthy."she shrugged and slipped into his office,Butch and Cassidy behind her.They sat in his waiting room for the five minutes and then."Come in."A cold voice said.Bandit lead the way.The Boss himself was sitting at his desk with an impressed look."Well,mission complete.You're in,but I think you should have a bit of training before you go out there to steal."Bandit waited."Butch,Cassidy.Take her with you and show her the ropes to becoming a good Team Rocket member."he motioned them to come closer."Just don't mess up."he hissed.Butch and Cassidy sweatdropped and nodded.Then they led Bandit out.

Bandit made a good member.She was a master a conning and stealing and even secretly gave tips to Jessie and James to help them out.With her help they were ever so slowly taking over the world,until Officer Jenny captured Giovanni and most of the rocket members.Bandit was able to save Butch,Cassidy,Jessie,James and Mondo before the police got to them.They bought a small house and lived together,although Mondo and Bandit were the only two who believed they should stick together.
