This part was written by Red Hawk. (We would all appreciate feedback!) Part 3: First Sights Ash looked around the room. Trying to find any means of help, and escape. Instead, he found an unconscious Misty laying to the side of him, bound to another hospital gurney. "Misty!" He looked around to see Pikachu, Totodile, and Cyndaquil in separate containers, each made specially to hold their types. "It is pointless to struggle, my son. There is only one way out... and that is at my side." Giovanni was before him, looking as dark and sinister as ever. He held Persia in his arms, stroking it slowly. Meowth stood in front of him, looking jealously at the Persia. James stood to the right of him, with Jessie next to him looking for the entire world like she was a bit terrified of Giovanni. "You see... I am getting old in my years; I need someone to one-day take over for me... One of my blood. You will join me, one way or another... I'll see to that." He lifts hand and snaps twice. James steps forward, a bit unsure at first. Jessie quickly went to the side out of Ash's line of sight. Suddenly his 'bed' was turned around and made to face Misty's. Jessie stood in a nurse's uniform, looking like a messed up Nurse Joy of hell. A Tray stood before her with all sorts of contraptions. James stood next to Jessie, closest to Misty, dressed in all black looking like an executioner. "You see Ash, I have many ways to make you join my side. What do you say? Yes? Or no?" James gets a shot ready and injects it into Misty. Ash's heart skips a beat. How could he ever join such evil? It would betray all that he ever knew! Yet... To say no, would betray his only love... Misty moaned, and blinked. "Ash? What... Where are we?!" She looked around, slowly gaining her bearings. "Will it be yes? Or no? I don't repeat myself more then once. Again could be fatal." Ash looked at Giovanni, and found himself saying no. "Very well... James, Jessie. Have fun." Jessie smiled under the mask. She hated this little red headed twit. With her sunny life, and simple joys. She had it all. Yet, she sort of felt sorry for her... No, it was to late for that. "Nurse Jessie? Had me the prong." She looked over the tray quickly. She couldn't believe how much James could change when it called for it. She felt rather thrilled. She handed him the red-hot prong. "Time to scream little girl..." James whispered in a sinister laugh. "Make sure to scream good and loud for your boy friend over there." She laughed. Misty gasped. "No! Don't! Please!" How could this be happening? She looked over to see Ash, eyes wide, starring at her. Giovanni stood to the right of Ash, watching it all with a small sadistic smile. Then, pain. Her vision blurred and the smell of burning flesh filled her senses. Her flesh! She was being cooked! "AHHHHHH!!!" "NO! STOP IT!" Ash tried to look away. Misty now held burn marks all over her arms and a few on her face. She was bleeding as well. A black and blue bruise already present on her pretty face. She looked close to passing out. "STOP! LEAVE HER ALONE!" His 'Father' laughed darkly. "I knew you would see it soon..."
