Here's part 3! :) Ash is about to challenge the rest of the Elite Four, and you can bet that he has lots of undiscovered pokémon. Will the Elite Four be able to take him on? Will Team Rocket attack again? And what are Misty and Brock doing? All these questions will be answered in part 3 of this fan fiction! Ash quickly moved through the door. When he arrived, he saw Koga sitting between two trees. "I challenge you!" shouted Ash. "Very well." Said Koga. The battle will now begin. I have 5 pokémon. Can you beat them all? Sleep, poison, confusion. Pokémon is not just about brute strength, you will see soon enough! Ariados, go!" The arachnid pokémon immediately used double team. Charizard flew out of Ash's poke ball and used Flamethrower, which successfully killed the bug. "Impressive. Forrestress, go!" The annoying pokémon appeared and threw Spikes all around Charizard, who went airborne. "Charizard, Thunder Flare!" Charizard let out the mighty Thunder Flare attack, which took out Forrestress. The next pokémon out was Kurobat (Crobat), who used double team and wing attack. Charizard lashed back with Fire Spin, taking out the Kurobat. Venomoth was also easily defeated. Finally, only Muk was left. Muk poisoned Charizard, who was out of action. Ash quickly withdrew Charizard, and remembering his previous experiences with a Muk, threw out his pal Pikachu. Pikachu immediately zapped the Muk with a devastating Thunder attack. The Muk was still alive, but just barely. It used Sludge Bomb on pikachu, who shuddered as she was poisoned. Pikachu let loose a second Thunder, finally fainting the Muk. "I am impressed with your skill. You may pass." Said Koga. Ash nodded and pulled an antidote out of his pocket to heal pikachu with. His next challenge was Bruno. The huge muscle-bound guy looked at Ash and shrugged. Misty was flipping through the T.V. channels when she spotted something. "The Orange League Championships…" she murmured, looking at the screen. Then she gasped. The person fighting Bruno, with his red pokémon league hat and the small pikachu on his head could only be Ash. With a cry of jubilation, she called for Brock to come and look. They decided to head to Indigo Plateau immediately. Ash's bulbasaur finished off Onix easily with razor leaf and vine whip. Ash shrugged and petted the small plant pokémon on the head. He saw that it was already very late, so he decided to go back to his campsite and crash for the night. He could challenge Karin (Karen) and the champion tomorrow. Ash returned to his campsite to find dinner already prepared. His Mr. Mime was sitting next to the campfire stirring a pot of stew. Ash smiled as he petted the pokémon on the head and picked up a bowl. After he had finished eating, he threw some ingredients into an empty cauldron and added water to make healthy, nutritious soup for the rest of his pokémon. When all of his pokémon were full, Ash smiled and looked up at the sky. The moon was full, heralding the approach of several night pokémon. Ash soon fell asleep with pikachu on his lap. The next morning, Ash woke up at the crack of dawn. His bird pokémon were all cawing and crowing, so there was no way he could have slept. Ash sighed and fixed breakfast for everybody. When he got to the Plateau, he saw Karin waiting for him. Ash sighed and readied his first pokémon. Karin threw out Umbreon, the dark evolution of eevee. Ash considered for a moment before Pidgeot appeared. Pidgeot Sky attacked the Umbreon, fainting it. Next, Pidgeot, who had a strong elemental advantage, also took out Vileplume. Gengar fainted Pidgeot, and Pikachu took care of Murkrow. Finally, only Hellgar (houndoom) remained. Ash sent out Squirtle, who used Hydro Pump, but got crunched. Squirtle finally fainted Hellgar with a Surf. Karin just smiled and let Ash pass. Ash wondered who the champion was. He found out when he walked through the next set of doors. There stood a man in a cape, Lance, the dragon trainer. Lance did not seem to notice Ash until he turned around. "I always knew that you, with your skills, would someday find me here." He said. "There's no need for words now. We will battle to determine who is the better trainer. As the Pokémon League Champion, I, Lance, the Dragon trainer, accept your challenge!" Squirtle took out the first three Dragonites with Ice Beam and Blizzard. Charizard beat Aerodactyl. Finally, only Charizard was left. Ash accepted the belt from Lance and quickly disappeared. Misty growled in disappointment. She had arrived at the Indigo Plateau to find out Ash had left just a bare 1/2hour earlier. She was furious. Where was that annoying guy? Why hadn't he come back and apologized to her yet? It was so strange. She wondered if maybe she was wrong, but brushed off that idea. Ash, ever the procrastinator, must be continuously putting off apologizing to her. Yes, that was it. She smiled slightly and continued on her way. Ash floated over the Blackthorn city pokémon center as he prepared a Hyper Beam attack. That nurse was going to pay for insulting him, he made sure of that. A minute later pure energy blasted through the pokémon center. Ash had focused it so that only the nurse's station would be hit. All the pokémon in intensive care and storage were unharmed. Ash never intentionally killed pokémon, being a pokémon also, unless it was absolutely necessary. Jessie and James were following Ash's tracks through the woods. Finally, they found him sleeping against a tree wrapped up in his sleeping bag with pikachu sitting on his head. Meowth quietly snuck over and picked up pikachu. Then, Jessie and James tied Ash up and placed him in the back of their truck. They took great care to remove his six poke balls, but didn't notice the rest that were disguised as "beads" on his belt. They also neglected to remove his flower charm. This was a good thing. Ash woke up to find himself crammed inside a truck. Noticing that six of his poke balls were gone, Ash calculated that those would be Charizard, Pidgeot, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Pikachu, and Butterfree. The rest of his pokémon were still safely hidden inside his belt. Ash grinned as he sat back and waited. When they hit Team Rocket headquarters, Jessie and James dragged him inside. Ash put up almost no resistance at all, which was surprising. Finally, they reached Giovanni's office and took him inside. "So this is the famous pokémon master Ash Ketchum?" asked Giovanni, looking a bit amused. "He would make an excellent addition to Team Rocket." Ash didn't respond and stared straight ahead, almost blindly. "Take away his pokédex and fit him out for a uniform. Take Pikachu away as well." Jessie and James nodded and dragged Ash away to the team rocket fitting rooms. Surprisingly, he did not respond. Jessie was getting a little worried. "Okay brat, what's up?" asked Jessie. "You're so indifferent to this that it's positively scary. Spit it out. Why aren't you opposing us?" Ash looked up and said with no emotion at all "Because I always knew this would happen. I knew that after I became a master I would be captured. I guess you could say I have slight psychic powers. I'm not one to fight destiny, so there you have it." "Okay…" said James. "I think I get it. You aren't arguing because you knew that this was going to happen in the first place?" Ash nodded as he was fitted for his uniform. Then, he was led to his quarters. He was not going to have a partner, Giovanni had decided, because he was skilled enough to accomplish missions himself. Ash viewed all of this with no emotion at all. This was starting to worry Jessie and James. Ash's first mission was to steal rare pokémon from the Safari Zone. He knew precisely what to do. Ash knew that after a year, Team Rocket would be exposed and he would have his chance to escape. His foresight was something he had been born with, but he was never going to show TR his true form or his other powers. With that thought in mind, Ash quietly set his rampaging Tauros loose in the Safari Zone. Misty was frantic. It had been weeks since Ash had been nominated as pokémon master and he had suddenly vanished without a trace. She had heard rumors that he had been kidnapped by Team Rocket, something that could happen to any experienced and powerful trainers, but she did not credit that yet. She was sure that Ash was hiding somewhere where he wouldn't have to be in the public limelight. Yes, that would be it. The Tauros ripped through the grass and the forest, scaring out lots of rare pokémon. Ash had trained them not to harm any, just scare them. Ash quickly captured several chanseys, a nidoking, a dragonair, several other nidorans and their evolutions, and some other pokémon. Seeing some of the wardens come running, Ash quickly used Teleport to get out of there. Next, he headed for the pokémon center to heal his Tauros. Ash reported back to Team Rocket Headquarters, feeling very satisfied. In return for capturing all of those rare pokémon, Ash was promoted to a higher rank. He was also given free access to the secret labs where pokémon were experimented upon. Ash smiled a strange smile. Misty was nearly hysterical by now. There had been reports of a Team Rocket member who looked a little bit like Ash. Misty was sure Ash would never sink that low. Besides, even if he was with Team Rocket, he must have a good reason for it, right? Ash rose swiftly through the ranks, and by the end of three months, had become a personal advisor to Giovanni himself. It was sort of scary, in a way. Ash spent most of his time in the secret laboratory, experimenting. Within weeks he had created several new species of pokémon, unknown to Giovanni and the rest of Team Rocket. All of them were completely devoted to him. Ash smiled as he went about his tasks. Jessie and James were afraid of Ash now. He had almost as much power as Giovanni himself. Ash spent most of his time hiding, and it was nearly impossible to get an appointment with him. Also, the way he always hid his eyes was also scary. You could never tell what he was thinking. But the way he smiled…that was enough to freeze your blood! They couldn't take it any longer. Risking their lives, they snuck out of the headquarters and alerted Misty. Misty was horrified when Jessie and James told her the location of Team Rocket and Ash's position in the hierarchy. She had never imagined that he could become so corrupted. It was positively unnerving. Ash never would have done this before, she knew. Something drastic must have happened, and she was going to find out, whatever it took! So…did you like it? I won't tell you which new pokémon Ash created yet because that would spoil the surprise. Can you imagine Jessie and James risking their lives like this? Yes, I know Ash might not do something like this in real life, but this is my fic! I like having Ash beat the Elite four, so there!
