Gary and Misty faced each other, waiting for the whistle to be blown.

 

            TWEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!

 

            “Go Sycther!” Gary shouted.

 

            “I choose, Marill!”

 

            “Scyther, Double Team!”

 

            “Marill Bubble Bomb then Defense Curl!”

 

            “Many Scythers surrounded Marill, but it volleyed of bubbles while spinning into a defense curl, all but one of them disappeared, and the remaining one, staggered back.

 

            “Scyther, Slash attack!”

 

            “Marill, Water Gun!”

 

            Scyther’s Slash did serious damage to Marill, but did not KO it, instead it was KO’ed by the jet of water that came from Marill’s mouth.

 

            “Scyther, return, Go Eevee!!”

 

            “Water Gun!!”

 

            “Reflect”

 

            The water gun was reflected off of Eevee’s shield, and went back to Marill, who was knocked out by it’s own attack.

 

            “Marill, return, go Seadra!”

 

            “Seadra Water Gun!”

 

            “Will you ever learn? Eevee, Reflect!”

 

            “Seadra, Agility and Hydro Pump!”

 

            Part of the strong water gun hit Seadra, but not enough to deter it as it ran around Eevee, Shooting water at it from all directions. Eevee didn’t stand a chance.

 

            “Eevee return!”

 

            “Go…. Arcanine!”

 

            “Arcanine, Fire Spin!”

 

            “Seadra, Water Gun it away!”

 

            Seadra was too tired though, and missed a portion, just enough to make it faint.

 

            “Seadra return! You did a good job. Go…. Gyrados! Tidal Wave!”

 

            “Arcanine Fire Blast!”

 

            A cloud of smoke filled the arena, and when it cleared, both pokémon were still standing. The crowd cheered.

            “Arcanine Flamethrower!”

 

            “Gyrados, Hyper Beam!”

 

            Gyrados was hit by the flamethrower, but seemed relatively unaffected. Arcanine was knocked out, and Misty was declared the victor. The crowd roared. [Now is my time] thought Ash.

 

            “OK then, I’ve had enough, first that loser Ash beats me and then you, I won’t suffer the humiliation! If the victor is not there, then the runner-up must assume the victory!”

 

            From the edges of the stadium, 12 dark figures with R’s on their shirts and a man in a red tuxedo fell in behind Gary. “Yes, the victor must go, but for different reasons.” Said the leader of Team Rocket. They all pulled out submachine guns, except for Gary, who took out a Minigun.

 

            “Die.” Stated Giovanni simply.

 

            “Misty!!” Ash screamed. He launched himself in front of her at an inhuman speed. He never stood a chance, and should have fallen over in the first volley of bullets. Somehow though, he stood firm, taking in all of the agony, all of the pain, so that the human shield of himself would not fall and expose his love to the bullets. The shooters emptied their guns in their rage, and Ash keeled over. Ash’s body was torn.

 

Misty cried as she kneeled over. “Ash, no… you can’t leave.. leave me.. not yet..”

 

            Somehow, through the pain, Ash managed to put his finger to her lips, shushing her. He smiled weakly. “Goodbye Misty.. I love you, and I always have.” And then, his eyes closed, and even Misty knew he was dead.

 

            “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

 

*****C&C please I need your feedback! How should I end it, I need the populace to determine that!
