James: of Team Rocket A Life Story By: Ghastly Quill Hi! I’m James pokemon “friend” Snuffles. My kind haven’t been discovered yet. I hung onto James since he was born. And he doesn’t know I’m alive or even that I’m hanging on him. He is the only kiddo of his parents. Chapter 1 Rich, Mush, Much “Um, chomp, chomp, burp!” James is eating( Duh!), “Yummy so yummy,” James said after he finished his breakfast. Bacon, steak and eggs, lots of them. He sat on a beautiful wooden chair at a large dining room in his parents’ mansion. His father has an indigo blue- violet mustache and hair ( He dyed his hair) he wears an black- indigo tuxedo. James’ mother is a red- hair woman in a classic red dress and holds a classic fan. James’ parent somewhat like the classical life. James is also wore an indigo blue- violet tuxedo with a green bowtie and indigo blue- green shorts “Hopkins,” the boy said upon calling their butler, “Bring me 1 gallon of cookies “n” cream ice cream!” “Yes, Young Master James,” answered Hopkins, Hopkins was an aged man with hair only at the sides. He is a bit skinny and wears a tuxedo. He has been serving James’ family for nearly 31 years. He’s been serving them ever since his grandfather hired him just to clean the mansion and kept him ever since. “Oh, I’m stuffed,” James said contentedly, “What should I do with the remaining ice cream, young master?” Asked Hopkins, “Keep it until I need it,” “Yes, sir,” James’ family is very rich. He usually gets what he wants. His courtyard has a small stream with a bridge and Magikarps. His pet growlithe “Growlie“ has a dog house about half the size of James’ mansion. Sometimes James’ goes there to talk about how his parents’ think of him as an uncoordinated boy because Growlie is James’ only friend. Chapter 2 Ahh! My hair’s been color bobbed! James ran away from home for the city. He went to a beauty supply store to buy some blue dye. His hair was blonde so he wanted to make his hair blue. “AARRGH! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HAIR?!” James is now home. His mother is shrieking about his hair. “HOWARD! GET A WET RAG NOW!” “Yes, Mistress,” answered Howard, “Now dear, it’s just a dye job’” said James’ dad, “SHUT UP AND C’MERE AND HELP!” shouted James’ mom while rubbing his hair, 2 hours later... “It... won’t... come... off...” James’ mother said exhaustedly, “Call the doctor,” suggested James’ dad, “Howard... call the... doctor,” 30 minutes later... “The application of the dye is incorrect. The dye now reached filament and roots of hair. When grows back it will be “naturally” blue,” “Oh, how horrible!” said James’ mother, “What’s the matter with that? He dyed it like me and here I am! Besides it’s just ONE SMALL THING. Can-,” Something hit him when he emphasized the words ONE SMALL THING, (Rang!) “Oh! My poor nose!” whined James’ dad “That’s good for ya! You BASTARD!” Shouted James’ mom, She had thrown a vase at the nose of James’ dad. He was hit squarely in the face. Chapter 3 My head’s been ding dong, Jessibell! Like James, Jessibell is the only kid of her family. She’s very rich and extremely crazy( Like a cuckoo bird). Their parents agreed to get them married. She’s a gentlewoman while James isn’t. “James, your going to meet Jessibell tomorrow,” “Uhuh” The next day... ( Ding dong) “ Hopkins, open the door,” Hopkins opened the door to reveal a young 9-year old red-haired girl in a red dress while she held an Oddish in her arms. “Good day, Hopkins dear,” She said, “Good day to you, Miss Jessibell,” Hopkins replied, “Are you here to teach Master James?” “Yes, Hopkins,” 1 hour later... “Oh, James, why can’t you learn fast? We’ll start with spaghetti then,” Jessibell said disappointed, Where is the moment you needed the most? You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost They tell me your blue skies fade to gray Tell me your passion gone away And I don’t need no carryin’ on “That’s it, I’ve had it,” James said irritably, You stand in the line just to hit a new low You’re faking a smile with the coffee to go They tell me your life’s been way off line You’re falling to pieces every time And I don’t need no carryin’ on James burst out of the door, calling his Growlie. It was winter and the estate was covered in snow. ‘Cause you had a bad day, you’re taking one down You sing a sad song just to turn it around You say you don’t know, you tell me don’t lie You work at your smile and you go for a ride You had a bad day, the camera don’t lie You’re coming back down and you really don’t mind You had a bad day You had a bad day “James dear, wait,” Well, you need a blue sky holiday The point is they laugh at what you say And I don’t need no carryin’ on “I haven’t taught you how to eat spaghetti properly yet,” You had a bad day You're taking one down You sing a sad song just to turn it around You say you don't know You tell me don't lie You work at a smile and you go for a ride You had a bad day The camera don't lie You're coming back down and you really don't mind You had a bad day You had a bad day Sometimes the system goes on the blink And the whole thing turns out wrong You might not make it back and you know That you could be well oh that strong And I'm not wrong So where is the passion when you need it the most Oh, you and I You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost 'Cause you had a bad day You're taking one down You sing a sad song just to turn it around You say you don't know You tell me don't lie You work at a smile and you go for a ride You had a bad day You've seen what you like And how does it feel for one more time You had a bad day You had a bad day Had a bad day Had a bad day Had a bad day Had a bad day... Had a bad day... “I wanna do things MY way, Jessibell,” James answered back, “ Your not running properly,” Chapter 4 Farewell, Growlie James and Growlie were at a town, in the middle of January. Out of money and out of food, James collapsed in the snow due to fragility. “Go on with out me, Growlie,” He said “The angels have come for me... so beautiful...,” Growlie howled in the night, hoping for someone to help his master. Suddenly a white- haired woman appeared. “ What have we here? *Gasp* oh no!” she said as she removed her jacket, "Thank God!" she exclaimed; "He's still breathing! Come, little Growlithe, we must get your master inside!" The woman took us to her mansion. It did not have nearly as large a yard as our Estate, but it was still a magnificent structure. She took us to a small den with a fireplace, and laid James next to the fire. "Acute hypothermia;" she said; "we'll have to watch him through the night." The next day, James sat in a huge wing chair, bundled in a blanket, sipping a cup of hot tea. "People call me Lady Judith;" the old woman explained; "I saved you last night from the cold. Your Growlithe's howling lead me to you." "I'm James;" James replied; "Thank you for rescuing me. I thought I was going to die. But even that is better than going back home;" he whispered the last line under his breath. "What is so bad about home?" Lady Judith inquired. James poured out the stories of his life, as if each one was a drop of water in a swiftly flowing river. He told her of his unloving parents, of Jessibelle, even that story about how he got blue hair . "Please don't contact my parents, Ma'am;" he finished; "I'll just run away again. I could wind up like I was last night, but I'd rather die than go back there! " "I can see why, young man;" Lady Judith said; "How would you like to stay here for a while." "All right!" my young master exclaimed . Lady Judith was an eccentric old millionaire. She had a thriving medical practice in her younger days. She got rich off of a weight-loss pill she had invented. It worked in about half the users. She loved all Piketon and her favorites were Meowths and Persians. She had little porcelain figurines of them everywhere. "Just call me a crazy old lady who likes cats;" she would say. She enjoyed investing in youth. She asked James about his interests, telling him that she could help him establish his future. "Well, I've always liked Piketon;" he told her one day. "There is a school I could send you to;" Lady Judith replied; "It's called Piketon Technical Institute. They can train you to become a Piketon Master." James decided to take Lady Judith up on her offer. He could not, however take Growlie with him. Piketon Tech did not allow dogs in the dorms and did not allow students to bring their own starter Piketon. Students had to use Piketon that the school provided or catch their own under the Institute's tutelage. So Growlie went back home, to the Estate, upon James' order to take care of his parents. Chapter 6 Holy Matrimony After five years he had joined the infamous Team Rocket organization. He, a red-headed girl and a talking Meowth were eavesdropping on the “twerps” and found a poster of James as a young boy. They went into the air vents to, yet again, eavesdrop on the “twerps’ and James’ butler, Hopkins, about their parents death, the inheritance and the marriage with Jessibell. They fell from the air vent to the outside and met up with the twerps. James told them a flashback from his past childhood. Jessie and Meowth forced James into marrying Jessibell for the inheritance. James was tied up by Jessie and Meowth, who were disguised in black( that must their worst disguise EVER!). They went inside with the greeting of Hopkins, who didn’t SEEM to notice the two. Suddenly, James’ father and mother appeared from the coffins, alive. They went to discuss about the marriage, met Jessibell( who looks like Jessie). “ I’m glad you came back to me, James dearest,” she said, “ Let’s go to the basement for your inheritance,” They went down and found not money or gold, but exercise equipment. Then there stood his father beating on a wooden gong, his mother playing a flute and Jessibell in a lion tamer’s outfit with a whip. Jessie and Meowth were seen by James’ parents. Jessie then threw a smoke bomb on the floor. After it cleared, James was being attacked with Jessibell’s whip. “ They’re such a perfect couple” James’ father said, “ Perfect like us, deary,” James’ mother replied, “ If you weren’t such lousy parents,” James shouted to his parent, “ You’d stop this crazy woman” Jessibell’s whip suddenly caught James by the ankle, making him fall on the ground. Jessibell called her Vileplume from it’s pokeball. She commanded only two words. “ Stun spore,” She said, James, Ash, Misty, Brock, Pikachu ,Jessie and Meowth were affected. “ Hopkins,” she called, “ Yes madam,” he asked, “ Would you please take out the trash,” Jessie, Meowth and the twerps were thrown out. They suddenly heard a bash on the doghouse’s door. “ What’s that?” Ash wondered, A growl came from the door. “ Pika Pika!” Pikachu said in Piketon, “ The Growlithe wants out,” Meowth translated, They all pulled and with the help of Growlie’s bashes it gave way, showing a Growlithe heading for James. “ Growlie!” James said, Then came James’ Growlithe, Growlie. “ Growlie,” James said with relief and joy to see his old friend, “ Oh no! Now who let you out!?” Jessibell said, Growlie suddenly carried his master to the doghouse. “ He said to get in,” Meowth said in translation to Growlie’s orders, In the doghouse, James told them more of his past and why he ran away. Suddenly a huge explosion sent Jessie and Meowth flying. Jessibell and Vileplume were inside. “ Stun spore,” Jessibell ordered Vileplume, Growlie was able to burn it out and sent Vileplume running on fire. In the afternoon... “ Bye, Growlie” James said, “ Stay here and take care of my parents, will you?” And at that he left...
