Ash Ketchum: Formula One Driver
Chapter 11: Hangovers, Broken Hearts, Death Rockets and a Totodile
Morning arrived in Pallet but not everybody is happy to hear the Pidgeys and Dodrios chirp cheerfully in the rising morning sun. Keith Terrell, who was still fully drunk from drinking a whole bottle of Tequila and now has a badass hangover, tried to get up, but he fell face first on the couch.
“Shut up!! My head!” Keith mumbled as he struggled to stand up. He spent the whole night drinking. He thought if he could pass out drunk, the two days would go by already. All that left him was a giant ass hangover and a tendency to puke. “Ugh… my plan… didn’t work. Shit.” Keith slurred as he managed to get out the front door and sit on the porch. “Life sucks.” Keith said to himself. He dragged himself over to a trashcan near Prof. Oak’s lab and threw up everything he ate for the past night. Somebody was not going to like this, because he was hurling so loudly. Not a pleasant thing to hear in the morning. In Ash’s room, both he and Brock got up and heard Keith puking his guts out.
“Eww! Sick!!! I told you he was going to puke in a trash can.” Ash said as he and Brock both looked outside and saw Keith still puking,
“I think he drank the whole bottle. That guy has a strong liver.” Brock said. The two went downstairs and saw not one bottle, not two bottles, but three empty bottles of Whiskey, Tequila and Vodka lying on the floor.
“Holy shit. He drank 3 bottles! This guy is good. He's like Vertigo!!” Ash said,
“And he’s still alive and puking. He’s going to have one hell of a goddamn hangover.” Brock said. Ash picked up the bottles and placed them in the back porch, leaving them until his Mom decided what to do with them. The two heard Keith finally stop puking and he staggered back to the house, only to fall flat on his face once again and pass out. Delia was the next to wake up and get dressed. She saw Ash and Brock looking outside at something.
“Ash. Brock. What are you two looking at?” Delia asked,
“Keith drank 3 whole bottles of alcohol, trying to get himself passed out for two days.” Ash answered,
“That doesn’t work. I bet he’ll have one bad hangover all day.” Delia said. Keith got up once again and he walked to the back of his Ferrari. He opened the trunk and took out a bottle of Jack Daniels.
“Did you see that? Keith Terrell has a bar in the back of his 550 Maranello!!!” Brock said as the three watched Keith take a giant swig of Jack Daniels. He heard some Pidgeys chirping in the tress in front of him. He didn’t like it very well.
“Mother… fucking… son of A BITCH!!!!!” Keith yelled out, took out a gun and started shooting at the Pidgeys. The birds flew away, leaving Keith still firing at the tree. The gunshots started to wake everyone up in Pallet. “I want quiet!!! Goddammit!!!!” Keith yelled out before falling to his knees and passing out yet again.
“At this rate, Keith will be out for more than two days. He might miss the Belgium race altogether.” Ash said,
“Ash. This Keith Terrell is one weird guy.” Delia said, watching Keith snore loudly on the ground.
“Don’t I know it. Formula One always attracts all the weirdos.” Ash added.

Giovanni was very angry with the way his plans to kill Keith Terrell have failed. The American has avoided being shot at by a Rocket Sniper and beat up both Butch and Cassidy. That wasn’t the only thing on his mind. The United States Government just killed more of his spies the other day.
“This American is really getting on my nerves. How can he be so full of luck?” Giovanni asked himself. Team Rocket has instilled so much fear into the hearts and minds of everyone in Kanto and Johto, he thought Team Rocket was invincible. Now, he set his sights on overthrowing the United States of America. He thought if America was defeated, Team Rocket could control the world. But, because of the terrorist attacks in 2001, the United States is a much more powerful country. Many anti-government militia were eliminated by the FBI and local police in 2003. He sent in spies to infiltrate important U.S. buildings to get the country’s secrets, but local police killed all of them without mercy. The President even has vowed to destroy Team Rocket, which did not sit well with Giovanni. The intercom on his desk went off, getting him out of his deep thought.
“Sir. James is here to see you.” The secretary said,
“That useless moron? Very well, send his sorry ass in.” Giovanni said. The door opened and James appeared, holding an ordinary Totodile in his arms.
“Sir. This is not a real Totodile.” James said. The Water Pokémon was totally still in James’ arms.
“You’re right. It’s not trying to bite your ass.” Giovanni said,
“That’s because this is a robot. Something that the boys in the R&D labs have just developed. This robot Pokémon acts like a normal Pokémon, but it has a spy camera built inside it.” James said as he placed the robot Totodile on Giovanni’s desk,
“Is the camera hidden inside this Pokémon?” He asked,
“Yes, sir. This robot Totodile is perfect for spying and surveillance. You can keep an eye on Ash Ketchum and most of all ambush Keith Terrell. Get rid of him once and for all.” James said,
“You finally did something right, James. But what about if somebody tries to catch it?” Giovanni asked,
“The R&D lab boys installed a powerful laser weapon inside the Totodile robot. It can kill a person with ease. So, this bot can spy and kill whatever you tell it to.” James answered,
“Have the R&D scientists created the tracking device and other crap?” Giovanni asked,
“Yes. The range on Totodile is over 200 miles. And there will be no contact loss of any kind. This is the perfect spying machine.” James answered,
“Excellent. Now I can plan the perfect assassination of Keith Terrell. Send this robot Totodile out to Pallet Town at once and maintain close contact.” Giovanni ordered,
“Yes sir. Come along, little friend. You’re going to kill Keith Terrell for us.” James said to the Totodile as he picked it up from the desk. He exited the room and Giovanni started to plan another hit on the American.

It was past noon in Pallet and Ash finished packing his stuff inside his Supra, making sure if he needed to get the hell out, everything was set. Pikachu jumped on Ash’s head as usual.
[Hey, Ash. What’s up? You look like something is bothering you?] Pikachu asked,
“I just have an odd feeling, Pikachu. Like something really big is going to happen to me, Keith and Brock. Something really big.” Ash said,
[You’re just paranoid. I bet you want to get back in your Toyota F1 car and beat Ralf Schumacher and his Williams again.] Pikachu said,
“You’re right about that. I guess I need to get back behind the wheel of my F1 car. And I’m glad we’re going to Belgium. That is my best track in Formula One. I got my first point there in 2003.” Ash said as he walked back inside the house,
[I remember that. The Ferrari team threw a giant “You got your first F1 championship point party. I never knew how important a point in Formula One really is. It has $10 Million dollars in travel money written all over it.] Pikachu said,
“Now you know why the European Minardi guys go nuts every time they score a point. They literally throw a party and get drunk.” Ash said,
[I wonder when the team will score again.] Pikachu said,
“Not until 2012. The points they got at Great Britain with Alex Yoong are the final points they will get for years.” Ash said as he and Pikachu started laughing at the thought of Minardi not scoring again. “Let’s go see what Mom’s cooking for lunch.” Ash said as the two entered the kitchen. Outside, Keith finally woke up in the same spot where he fell earlier. He was still holding the gun that he used to shoot some Pidgeys. He was completely sober, but the mother of all hangovers was having an all night rave party in his brain.
“Ohhhhh… I’m paying for it right now.” Keith mumbled as he dragged himself inside the Ketchum home. Ash, Brock, Delia, Pikachu, Meowth and Chikorita were all eating lunch and didn’t hear Keith drag himself in. The first person to spot Keith dragging himself in was Chikorita, who was having some Pokémon food.
[It’s about time you got up, buddy.] Chikorita said,
“OWWWW!!! My head!” Keith groaned in pain. He held his pounding head, begging for the pain to stop. Chikorita wondered what she did as Ash, Brock and everyone else looked down to see Keith.
“Chikorita, Keith is having a bad hangover. I think it’s best of you leave him alone.” Ash said,
[Really? His breath reeks of really powerful alcohol.] Chikorita said, sniffing Keith’s breath. The grass Pokémon backed right off, feeling a bit woozy.
[Don’t let Terrell’s breath kill you, Chikorita.] Pikachu said,
“This is worse than the time I drank 50 beers.” Keith said,
“50 beers? Goddamn!!” Brock exclaimed,
“50 beers? When was that?!!!” Delia asked surprised,
“Um… The time I won Monza all by my lonesome with Ferrari in 2004. Oh, that was a great party. We were playing Creed, Eminem and Metallica while drinking all night. Boy, we paid for it the next day. Mr. Luca di Montezemolo came in and yelled out very loudly, which made us scream out in pain. Then he said, “I can’t run a Formula One championship team and a car factory when all of you are having hangovers from Keith’s victory party!!! Get you asses up and get back to Maranello now!!” Oh, that was so funny. Ow.” Keith said as his head continued to pound. Delia kneeled down and handed Keith a glass filled with something really unusual.
“Here. It’s an old family remedy for curing hangovers. I don’t know you might take it, being an American.” Delia said quietly as Keith took the glass. He didn’t bother to smell it and downed the concoction. Keith handed the glass back to Delia and didn’t show any signs of throwing up.
“My grandparents made me drink something like that when I was a kid. So, I’m used to it.” Keith said before dragging himself back outside to his Ferrari. Ash, Delia, Brock and the Pokémon watched Keith pass out once again.
“Are all Americans like that?” Brock asked,
“Just him. And Ronin. And Francois. And Riley. And Irvine. And Yoong. And Fisichella. And Scheckter. And Jarno.” Ash said,
“Ash, are you saying that the F1 drivers act like him also?!!” Delia asked,
“Just at the FIA banquet. I have never seen so many drunk guys in my life. David Coulthard was the worst of them all. It was funny as hell, though.” Ash and Pikachu laughed. Chikorita, Brock and Delia did not find that fact amusing at all.

James was already near Pallet Town with the robot Totodile armed and ready. He played the spying machine on the ground and the robot Pokémon started walking around, not giving anything that might tell people it is a robot.
“This is James. The Totodile is mobile and headed towards Pallet.” James said into his cell phone,
“Well done. He got visual conformation from the camera. Come on back and we’ll tell Giovanni that the plan has now started.” A person said on the other line. James put the cell phone away and left the area unnoticed. Over at Ash’s house, Ash and Brock were having a dispute about something very important.
“No, Brock. Damon Hill won the 1993 championship!! Not Ayrton Senna!” Ash said,
“Ash. Damon did not win!!! It was that Senna guy.” Brock argued. Keith just laughed to hismelf as he saw the two friends argue about Formula One History. He, in fact, knew the right answer because he saw ho won the title.
“You’re both wrong. It was Alain Prost in the Williams Renault who won the 1993 driver’s title. Great guesses though.” Keith said as he had a smile on his face. He just loved to prove people wrong.
“Ok, Keith. When did the Tyrrell team scored its final points before becoming BAR in 1999?” Ash asked,
“Monaco in 1997 with the late Mika Salo. He finished 5th in a rain soaked event.” Keith answered,
“Damn, he’s right. Who was the last American driver to get a podium finish? And I’m not talking about you, Keith.” Ash asked,
“It was that loser Michael Andretti. He finished 3rd in the 1993 Italian Grand Prix with McLaren. He got fired after that. He only got 7 points!!! As for me, I AM the best American driver in F1!! I am a god!!!” Keith yelled out and stood up like a god,
“Is he like this whenever he talks about his countrymen?” Brock asked,
“Yeah. He thinks he is the greatest American driver of all time in F1. If he keeps this good results up, he might do it.” Ash said. Keith sat back down and thought about something for a minute.
“Hey, Ash. When did Lorelei disappear? I mean we haven’t seen her all day.” Keith said,
“Oh. She had some business to take care of. She’s at Indigo Plateau.” Brock answered. Keith nodded and started reading some of his fan mail he pakced along for the trip. Down the road from Ash’s house, Suzie and Zane were returning to see Brock. She hoped for him to actually see her this time. Brock had one important question that he wanted Keith to answer himself.
“Hey Keith, would you actually disobey orders from Ferrari to win the United States Grand Prix?” Brock asked,
“Oh, hell yeah!!! I want to win that race so bad. And I will sacrifice my ride with Ferrari to do it.” Keith answered,
“You got balls, Keith.” Ash said. Brock got up from his spot and looked at the two for a second.
“I’m in the mood for a drink. You two want something?” Brock asked,
“Red Bull. It gives you wings.” Both Ash and Keith said and Brock went inside to get the drinks as Suzie and Zane walked up to the two Formula One drivers. Ash looked up to see them standing near the porch.
“Hi, what can I do for you two?” Ash asked,
“We came, um… actually, SHE wanted to see Brock.” Zane answered,
“Her? What a minute, didn’t I see you two here yesterday when I kicked that guy’s ass?” Keith asked,
“Yes. I haven’t seen him in a long time. It’s almost been 5 years.” Suzie said,
“Well, he’s inside the house. He’ll be out in shortly.” Ash said. Then after he said that, Brock came out the house with some Red Bull energy drinks and handed them to Ash and Keith.
“Hey, Ash. Who wanted to see me?” Brock asked and then, he looked up and saw Suzie for the first time in a few years.
“Hi. It’s nice to see you, Brock.” Suzie said cheerfully. She was very excited to see him in such a long time, but Brock didn’t see it that way. All of a sudden, Brock became depressed and he walked back inside the house. Suzie and Zane wondered what just happened, but Ash and Keith knew Brock’s problem.
“What… why did he…” Suzie tried to get the words out, but she was too shocked to say anything.
“Um, I think we should tell you why Brock did what he just did. Maybe, you might understand.” Keith said.
+ + + + + + + + + +
+ + + + + + + + + +
Brock headed up to Ash’s room where he and Ash slept, closed the door and sat on the bed.
“Why? Why am I so afraid to see her? And I still upset that she and Zane are together? I don’t know.” Brock said to himself as he was fighting with so many mixed emotions. One thing was for certain. He couldn’t face Suzie right now. Outside, Ash and Keith explained to Suzie and Zane about what Brock has went through.
“So, that’s the whole story. That is why Brock did what he did.” Ash said,
“Poor guy is too heartbroken to trust another girl.” Keith said,
“So, that is why he just walked away?” Suzie asked,
“Yeah. I guess it’s because you chose Zane when we bumped into you at that breeder’s contest years ago.” Ash said,
“Oh, seeing somebody you love with another guy will break any guy’s heart.” Keith said,
“But, we just wanted to start up our own breeding shop. Not start a romantic relationship.” Suzie said,
“That’s what women always say. Women always tell the biggest lies.” Keith said,
“Man, I’m so stressed out. At times like this, I just want to start lighting them up and take a drag.” Zane said, referring to smoking cigarettes.
“Take a drag? Hey, man. What have you been smoking? Whatever it is, pass that over. I want some of that.” Keith said as he held out his hand to Zane, hoping he has some crack that he didn’t smoke.
“Hand what over?” Zane asked,
“You have some pot! I want some. I know you have it.” Keith said,
“I never smoked that shit in my life!!!! I was talking about cigarettes! I gave up on cigarettes 2 years ago!!” Zane said,
“You want cigarettes? Ferrari is sponsored by Marlboro. I can get you a couple of boxes for free.” Keith said, Suzie and Zane just looked at him for a second.
“You’ll have to forgive Keith. Sometimes, he’s not running on all 10 cylinders.” Ash said,
“So, he’s kind of an idiot?” Suzie asked.
“Hey, shut up little man. I can kill you and rip your nuts off!!!!” Keith said,
“Is this guy for real?” Zane asked,
“Not really. He’s a different guy on the F1 circuit.” Ash said,
“Yeah! I drive for the Scuderia Ferrari team!!!” Keith said proudly,
“So, what should we do with Brock? We just can’t let him sulk like that up there.” Zane said,
“Well, he was cheated on twice and couldn’t stand having another broken heart again.” Ash said,
“I’ve had this shit happen to me before. Some woman wanted to be my fiancé, but I find out she wanted to marry me just to seal up a business deal with my family and hers. Then, I got the call from Ross Brawn and Ferrari to joint he team. I never saw her again.” Keith said,
“Didn’t you tell me that she actually wanted to marry your brother?” Ash asked,
“Yeah. That part is true. My family and her family are not on speaking terms with me. They are all jealous of me because I’m more popular than all of them because I’m racing for the Scuderia Ferrari.” Keith said,
“Well, what are we gonna do?” Suzie asked worried,
“Nothing. Just give him the space he needs.” Ash said,
“Or, let somebody who had this problem before talk to him. I’ll be back.” Keith said as he got up and entered the house,
“This friend of yours from Formula One has had a broken heart?” Zane asked,
“More like a betrayal by her and his own family. The only people who cared about him were his grandparents, but they died last year. Now, he just focuses on racing for Ferrari and trying to bring a Formula One World Driver Championship to the United States. It’s too bad he won’t try to find a girlfriend. He’s a nice guy.” Ash said. Keith made his way to Ash’s room where Brock is sulking in right now. He knocked loudly on the door and Brock didn’t answer. Keith then reverted to some New York City motivation to get people to see his point.
“Yo, Brock. You can stop moping!! This isn’t helping you at all. There is this very pretty girl outside who wants to be with you!! And she’s really worried about you!” Keith said loudly,
“I’m not moping. I’m just thinking about Pokémon breeding.” Brock said through the door,
“Stop moping!!! You’re not thinking about Pokémon breeding. If you don’t come out of Ash’s room, I’ll break this door down.” Keith said,
“I dare you to do that.” Brock dared. Keith thought about it for a moment and then he punched through the door of Ash’s room. His hand and fist were not cut or punctured by the wood splinters from the hole. He reached inside and unlocked the door. Keith walked in and Brock was in pure shock. “You just punched through Ash’s door!!!” Brock yelled out in surprise,
“You dared me to. Stop moping, man. Sure, you’ve had your heart broken twice. Look at me. Some girl wanted to marry me to seal a business deal with my parents.” Keith said,
“That happened to you? Gee, that must have sucked badly.” Brock said,
“Sure did. I already knew about that gold digger’s plan. Lucky for me, I got the call from Ferrari. I don’t have time to have a relationship!” Keith said,
“Oh, yeah. Ash and I saw how you get red in the face when you’re talking to Lorelei.” Brock pointed out,
“Shut up!! I do not!! But, she is beautiful. And she didn’t kill me when I told her I was in F1.” Keith yelled out as his face became red again,
“See, you’re doing it again!!!” Brock said and started to laugh at Keith’s red face,
“Shut up!!! I am not!!! You son of a bitch!!!” Keith yelled out,
“I’m just kidding, Terrell. Looks like we have something in common.” Brock said,
“Yeah. We both had our hearts broken by women. Hey, I know! Let’s go break some speed limits in my Ferrari. That always puts any dude in a good mood.” Keith said,
“Sure, why not? At least it will get my mind off of Suzie for a while.” Brock said,
“Oh, no you’re not. As soon as we hit the road, I’m going to fill you up with so much American made self esteem, you think you can get any girl, even her.” Keith said and he grabbed Brock’s collar and dragged him to the window.
“Hey, Terrell? Can’t we just use the stairs to get down?” Brock asked as he tried to get Keith off of him,
“Hell no. Your woman is down there and she’ll ask where you’re going. Come on, squinty.” Keith said as he and Brock exited Ash’s room through the window. The two jumped off the roof and landed hard on the ground.
“What was that?” Zane asked as he looked around the place,
“Could be some Furrets around, causing havoc. It happens.” Ash said. Keith and Brock both got into the Ferrari 550 Maranello, with a special unknown passenger. The robot Totodile had sneaked into the car. Team Rocket watched and listened carefully as Keith was lecturing Brock about the Ferrari 550 Maranello.
“Keith Terrell is in his Ferrari.” A Team Rocket member said as he continued to monitor,
“When he gets out at wherever he stops, I want the Totodile to kill him!!! Is that understood?” Giovanni ordered,
“Understood perfectly.” The member answered,
“Also, I have my elite guard ready in case something happens.” Giovanni said,
“I understand. Hopefully, the Totodile will eliminate him.” The member added. The sound of Keith’s Ferrari taking off startled everyone, including Ash. They all saw the Ferrari slowly drive up to Ash’s house.
“Hey, Keith!! Where are you going?!!” Ash yelled out,
“Man to man talk about broken hearts!!!” Keith yelled back,
“Wait!! I haven’t had a chance to talk to him why I wanted to see him!!” Suzie said,
“Don’t worry. I’ll bring him back in one piece!!! I promise you.” Keith answered and they took off for down the road. The torque of the Ferrari pushed Brock into the seat before the car was at a constant speed.
“Damn, this car can take off!!!” Brock said with some excitement in his voice,
“It’s a Ferrari. My F1 car I drive takes off even faster!!!” Keith said. The robot Totodile hid silently behind Keith’s seat as the two drove through Viridian City. Ash got a bad feeling inside of himself. He knew for some odd reason that Team Rocket would strike again. Delia exited the house and looked around for Brock and Keith.
“Ash. Where are…” Delia was interrupted when she saw Ash run towards his Supra,
“I think Team Rocket might strike again. I have to go catch up to the Ferrari. Come on, Pikachu and Meowth!!” Ash said as he ran to his Toyota Supra,
[Let’s hurry!!] Pikachu said as the mouse Pokémon jumped into the car through the window,
“I second that.” Meowth said as he leaped into the car as well,
“Ash, be careful. Team Rocket will stop at nothing to get Keith.” Delia said,
“Do you need any help?” Zane asked,
“No. They want Keith dead. And they’ll take out you guys as well. So, stay here with Mom. All right?” Ash said as he started the car and backed up. He stopped and looked at Suzie for a second. “Suzie. I’ll make sure Brock is not harmed. If he is, there will be hell to pay from the FIA.” Ash said and he put the pedal to the metal and sped out of Pallet.

Team Rocket was monitoring the Ferrari as it drove into Fuchsia City and headed for Celadon City. Giovanni planned a roadblock for the Ferrari and finally kill Keith Terrell. Setting up the roadblock was Giovanni’s personal destruction and assassination force called The Death Rockets. Elite members of Team Rocket who are cold-blooded killers who show no mercy. Nobody survives an encounter with the Death Rockets.
“Is the road block ready at the location?” He asked into his cell phone,
“Yes, sir. We have everything set. Keith Terrell will never know what hit him.” The leader of the Death Rockets answered confidently,
“Good. Keith Terrell won’t survive you guys. Make me proud.” Giovanni said and put away his cell phone. Down the road, Keith and Brock were coming up to the deathtrap and they don’t even know about it. They were busy talking about the good times with girls.
“The first time I had a girlfriend was when I was 16, a sophomore in High School in New York City. Her name was Kristina. Same age as me and we dated for a year. In the end, she found another guy and I started to focus on racing. I started racing full time in F3000 after I graduated. Never saw her again.” Keith said,
“I didn’t get a girlfriend because Misty was jealous of me for some odd reason. I guess she wanted the attention to herself.” Brock said,
“I hate those types of girls. I met a lot of them when I started driving for Ferrari.” Keith said. All of a sudden, they heard something in the back move around. “The hell is that?” Keith asked as he stopped the car. Team Rocket were ready to pounce on Keith and they ordered the Totodile to attack.
“Time to die, Terrell.” The guy said as he pushed a button that said “Kill.” The robot Totodile leaped out of nowhere and tried to bite Keith’s neck.
“Holy shit!!” Brock yelled out as he fought to get the Totodile away from Keith.
“Brock!! Run!! Don’t worry about me!!! I’m not dying today!” Keith yelled out as he got the Totodile off of him and threw it outside. The robot powerful up the laser and aimed it right at Keith. Keith reached into the back seat and pulled out a machine gun that the U.S. Military gave him. “I’m not dying today, you bastards!!!!” Keith yelled out and fired at the robot Totodile right in its mouth. The robot stopped moving before exploding into robot chunks.
“Dammit!! Giovanni! Keith Terrell killed the Totodile!!” One guy yelled out,
“Send the Death Rockets. He is close to them!!!” Giovanni ordered. As Keith and Brock looked at the robot, they heard the Death Rockets heading right for them.
“Oh, god. The Death Rockets. Team Rocket's best death and killing squad!!” Brock said, now starting to get scared,
“Brock. They want me. I want you to run for your life and hide. Don’t worry about me.” Keith said as he loaded another clip of machine gun ammo into the gun,
“They are the feared Death Rockets!!! Team Rocket’s elite killing squad!! You’ll die!!!” Brock yelled out, trying to get Keith to change his mind,
“If I die, the United States will avenge my death. Besides, you have a girl who would do something drastic to herself if you were to die.” Keith said as he stood up and walked down the road. “GO!!! NOW!!!!” Keith yelled out. Brock decided it was useless to make him change his mind and ran for cover as the Death Rockets arrived and formed into battle position. The leader stepped up and looked at Keith Terrell.
“So, you are that stupid American named Keith Terrell. You’ve caused to much trouble.” The leader said,
“I’m more trouble than you would ever dream of.” Keith said,
“Ha. Once we kill you, we can invade the United States and take over the country. Then, we’ll attack the FIA and destroy all of Formula One.” The leader said,
“I like to see you try that. Michael will do what he and the rest of the FIA did to this craphole in 2003. When you killed 3 of our drivers!!!” Keith said,
“I doubt that.” The leader said,
“Listen. Are you gonna talk… or are you gonna fight me?” Keith asked as he aimed his assault rifle at the Death Rockets. 13 miles away, Ash Ketchum was racing to where Keith was, hoping he can get there before it’s too late.
“Hang on, Keith. The Poké Calvary is coming!!!” Ash yelled out,
[Go, go, go!!!] Pikachu added,
“Let’s move, Ash!!” Meowth said. As the Toyota raced to where Keith is facing the Death Rockets, a very powerful Pokémon was watching the fight from a hidden location.
“So, this guy is Keith Terrell. He is worthy. Now, I can kill the Death Rockets and send a message to Giovanni.” The mysterious Pokemon said to itself.
To Be Continued…
Uh, oh. Keith is in for it now. The Death Rockets have been ordered to kill him and this might be Keith’s last stand. Who is that powerful Pokémon that said Keith is worthy. Worthy of what? Will Ash and the gang arrive to help Keith or see him dead? Will Brock ever get over his heartbreak? All of these questions will be answered in Chapter 12 of Ash Ketchum: Formula One Driver!!!
