Chapter 5: The Power of Love

Ash Ketchum woke up. The first thing he noticed was that he had a horrible headache. After looking around he realized he was in a large steel cage, in some kind of laboratory. There were computers along the far wall, and two steel tables nearer him. He hadn't the slightest idea what they were for. There were two glass doors to his left, leading down a dark tunnel. Other then that, there appeared to be no other way out of the room. He noticed Brock, stirring next to him, and that there pokemon were gone. Brock woke up.

Brock: Where are we?

Ash: I'm not sure. I think we're in the Team Rocket Headquarters.

Brock: this is bad. We still have to find Misty!

Ash: I know! But, I don't see any way out!

Brock: I wonder how long we've been out.

Ash: I don't know. I just hope there's still time.

Ash thinks to himself. He remembers the first time he ever met Misty. How he looked into her aqua-blue eyes. How he was stunned by the vivid crimson of her hair. Sure, he was worried about pikachu at the time, but he couldn't help but notice how pretty she was. How her beauty seemed magnified when she was angry. Over the years she grew even more beautiful. He had to get out, had to save her. No matter what, he would tell her how he felt. He would follow her in death. He would tell her, how much he loved her.

Ash: I'll find you Misty. Whenever and wherever you are.

***** This song played over and over in her head. The words probably touched her, since they related perfectly to her feelings. She would always love Ash, whenever and wherever. Misty Waterflower walked slowly through the lush forest of Viridian, on her way a certain river outside Pallet Town. The river where she first met Ash. She remembered that time, like it was yesterday. The surprise she felt when, instead of a Gyradoes, she saw a young boy and a hurt pikachu. She started yelling at him, saying he should be more careful, yet couldn't help but notice just how deep the brown of his eyes or the black of his spiky hair was. She couldn't help but notice, even after he stole her bike, just how handsome he was. But, she was just fooling herself. He could never feel the same way. That's what she told herself when she heard a pikachu cry out. Why would he come after her? She kept walking.

*****

Meowth: wes did it! Wes finallys captured that twerps' pikachu! Not to mention alls his other pokemon!

Jessie: that's right Meowth! Team Rocket, has finally completed a mission. We can take our names off the loser list and put them into the winning column!

James: I guess so.

Jessie: what's wrong James? Aren't you happy we finally succeeded? We didn't even have to hurt anyone!

James: Aren't you worried that the boss might kill the kid?

Jessie: of course he wouldn't James! The boss isn't like that!

Meowth: Besides, the twerp doesn't even know where the base is, and without his pokemon he won't be able to fight us!

James: yeah, you're right Jess! I don't know what I was thinking!

Butch and Cassidy walk from around the corner.

James: well, well, if it isn't Cassidy and Botch!

Butch: it's Butch! Butch!

Cassidy: think you two are all high and mighty, just because you finally completed a mission? We've completed a lot more missions then you three ever will!

James: why I otta!

Jessie: is that jealousy in your voices? After all, neither of you have ever completed missions of this caliber! The pokemon we stole were far superior then any of yours!

Cassidy: grrr! Anyway, the boss wants to see you now!

As Jessie, James, and Meowth walked away Cassidy and Butch Jessie and James next assignment was sure to be their downfall!

***** Jessie and James walked into the boss's office, happy to have put Butch and Cassidy into their place for once, and looking forward to their next assignment.

Giovanni: first off, I want to congratulate you on your success. I must admit I didn't believe you could pull it off. Good job!

Team Rocket: thank you, sir.

Giovanni: now, your next assignment will be fairly easy. It concerns the Ketchum boy.

James: what would that be sir?

Giovanni: I had my scientists run a medical check on him when you brought him in. I was fairly curious as to what had made him ill, since he seemed fine during the match. I found out he was poisoned with a very rare toxin. Coincidently, I've been searching for that very toxin, as it would prove quite useful against my enemies, since there's no cure! This type of poison runs its course by first causing stomach aches, and then lodges itself in the brain, causing intense headaches. After that, it moves to the heart and stops it, after a series of painful heart attacks. I want you to get this poison for me!

Jessie: you want us to wait until he dies from the poison and then extract it from him?

Giovanni: no. once the poison has killed its host, it disappears from the body. Also, once in its second stage, it can only be removed from the brain, while the host is awake.

An Asian, female scientist walks through the door.

Meowth: you means we's gotta cut out his brain? While he's awake? Doesn't that hurt?

Giovanni: yes, it's a very painful experience. This scientist, Dye Slow Lee, will cut the brain out. Your job is to simply restrain the boy. If you are successful you will be promoted to the elite band of rocket agents. Go now and do not fail!

***** They all exit the room, the Dye Slow Lee in front. As Jessie, James, and Meowth walk down the hall to the lab, they think about their assignment. James turns toward Jessie.

James: Jessie, are you sure about this?

Jessie: I'm not sure about anything anymore James. It seems I was wrong about the boss. He's far more aggressive then I thought he would ever be.

Meowth: at leasts we's gets to be elite rocket agents if we's do this.

James: that doesn't mean much. That just means that we'll be more like Cassidy and Botch!

Meowth: good point.

Jessie suddenly runs at the scientist, hitting her in the back and knocking her out.

James: Jessie! Does this mean...?

Jessie: yes James, it does! I'm quitting Team Rocket! I could never do something as barbaric as that! I am after all a female! Cutting someone's head off would be too bloody for me. But, we better get outta here quick! It won't be long before someone sees her!

James & Meowth: right!

***** Brock: do you here something, Ash?

Ash: yeah, it sounds like someone's coming down the tunnel!

Team rocket bursts through the door. They grab a key off the wall, unlock Ash and Brock's cage, and tell them to get out.

Jessie: hurry up twerp, we haven't got all day!

Ash: you guys are helping us?!

"yeah"! James says, handing them back their pokemon.

Brock: why would you help us? You're the ones who brought us here in the first place!

Jessie: well, squinty, we decided that team rocket was too barbaric for us, so we quit!

Meowth: that's right! But, someone will see the guard we knocked out and be here soon! We's gotta get outta here!

Voice: you're not going anywhere!

***** Misty had finally reached the river. It was just as beautiful as it had been the day she first met Ash. There were now flowers everywhere along the crisp, green grass. The sparkling water was teeming with Magikarp and Goldeen. Well, there was no point in prolonging it. She took out her trusty, Misty lure, and began to fish for a Gyarados.

***** Voice: you're not going anywhere!

They turned around and saw Butch and Cassidy blocking the doorway.

Butch: you're not going anywhere, but I've got good news!

James: free pokemon?

Butch: no! I just saved big money on my car insurance, by switching to geico!

(everyone else anime falls)

Cassidy: Prepare for trouble!

Butch: "Make it double!

Cassidy: To infect the world with devastation!

Butch: To blight all people in every nation!

Cassidy: To denounce the goodness of truth and love!

Butch: To extend our wraith to the stars above!

Cassidy: Cassidy!

Butch: Butch!

Cassidy: We're Team Rocket, circling earth day and night!

Butch: Surrender to us now or you'll surely lose the fight!

Both: That's Right!

Raticate: Cate!

Ash was about to send out pikachu, but Jessie stopped him.

Jessie: no twerp, this is our fight. Ready guys?

James & Meowth: ready!

Jessie: Prepare for trouble!

James: Make it double!

Jessie: To protect the world from devastation

James: To unite all peoples within our nation

Jessie: To denounce the evils of truth and love

James: To extend our reach to the stars above

Jessie: Jessie!

James: James!

Jessie: ex Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light

James: Surrender now or prepare to fight! Meowth: Meowth that's right!

Cassidy: I've been looking forward to this for a long time. Go raticate, houndoom, and hypno!

Butch: go primeape and hitmontop!

Jessie: go arbok and wobbuffet!

James: go victreebel, and wheezing!

Meowth: I'll tear em' apart!

Cassidy ordered raticate to hyper fang arbok, but arbok dodged and used wrap. Hypno used psychic on wobbuffet, who reflected it with mirror coat. Hyno dodged just in time.

Houndoom used bite on wheezing, who countered with a sludge attack.

Victreebell threw a razor leaf attack at Houndoom, hitting it in the side. Houndoom shook off the sludge and hit Victrebell with a flamethrower, knocking it out.

Primeape used karate chop on arbok, who released raticate, and counterd with poison sting. At the same time hitmontop used triple kick on wheezing. Meowth hit him with a slash attack, but was taken down by double kick.

Houndoom hit arbok with a fire blast, burning it. Before he could faint he used status swap on raticate, who was burned instead, and then took down primape with toxic. Houndoom tried to hit arbok with crunch, but he dodged. Hypno took him down with confusion.

Raticate used super fang on wheezing, who used explosion to make him, raticate, and houndoom faint.

Now it was wobbuffet against hitmontop and hypno. Hitmontop attacked with triple kick and then hypno used psychic. Both were deflected by wobbuffet. Jessie ordered wobbuffet to use L. H. counter. Wobbuffet glowed a deep purple-orange, but didn't attack. Confident that wobbuffet was unable to attack anymore, Butch and Cassidy ordered a team assault of triple kick and psychic, thinking wobbuffet couldn't deflect a special and physical move at the same time. As soon as they struck wobbuffet, however, they cried out in pain, and hitmontop fainted. Butch was startled, but Cassidy ordered a metronome attack. Wobbuffet started glowing, while hypno used waved his fingers back and forth to cause an explosion. Smoke filled the room. When the smoke cleared, only wobbuffet, Jessie, James, Ash, Brock, and pikachu were left standing.

Ash: what attack was that that wobbuffet used?

Jessie: L. H. a.k.a. Living Hell Counter. When attacked, wobbuffet attacks the opponent's mind, simultaneously, with fire and psychic. It's basically a living hell. Then it simply redirected that buffoon's explosion towards them with a counter.

Ash: wow! I guess you guy's won't be so easy to beat from now on!

Meowth: that's ri... hey, watch it twerp!

Ash: anyway, thanks! I need to go find Misty now! Ready Brock?

Brock: you bet I am! Let's go!

***** Misty felt a tug on her line. It was a big one! She reeled it in and an angry Gyarados appeared. She was scared, but this is what she wanted. She began her life on the path to be the best water pokemon master, so it was only fitting that her life be taken by a water pokemon. The moment of truth had arisen.

Misty: great Gyarados! I stand before you with but one request! That you unleash your anger on my withered soul! That you end my pathetic existence that no longer has a reason to be! I, Misty Waterflower, water pokemon master, hereby order you to claim my life! I beseech you, great water dragon! End it, so my heart will know peace!

The Gyarados didn't need to be told twice. Coincidently, this was the same gyarados that Ash and the gang had met, after escaping from the S.S Ann. The gyarados that had evolved from James magikarp. It recognized Misty and immediately attacked her, still sore that they had insulted him and tried to eat him.

Voice: THUNDERBOLT!!!!!!!!!

PIIKAACHUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The thunderbolt hit the gyarados, paralyzing it. Misty turned around and saw pikachu, Ash, Brock and, strangely enough, Team Rocket! There was no time for questions however, as the gyarados, noticing James, moved to hit him with a hyper beam! James dodged the blast and sent out victreebell. A sleep powder later and gyarados fell.

Jessie: isn't that your gyarados James?

James: it is isn't it! No wonder it was so angry! I still have its pokeball too!

James threw the gold-plated pokeball, and caught gyradoes. Ash and Misty noticed none of this, however, as they were too busy staring at each other.

Misty: you saved me?! Why? I thought you were with those fan-girls! I thought you didn't care about me!

Ash: of course I came after you Misty! I told you before, I'm not interested in those girls. The only reason you saw us kissing is because Brock accidentally spilt that "love potion" of yours on me!

Misty: you don't care about those girls?

Ash was now having a harder time speaking. He rubbed his heart before answering.

Ash: no. I care about you. you're the only one I could ever care about. I... I... I love you!

Misty: oh Ash! I love you too!

She leaned forward to kiss him, but at that moment he collapsed.

Misty: Ash, no! what's wrong with him?

Brock: he's dying! We need to get him to the hospital, now!

***** at the hospital *****

The doctor rushed Ash to the emergency ward. While they waited for the verdict Misty talked to Brock and Team Rocket. She found out everything. About the poison and its stages, the kidnapping, the battle, and the escape. Ms. Ketchum walks in, saying the doctor called her. After a while, the doctor came out. Misty could tell by his expression that his news wasn't good.

Doctor: I'm very sorry, but.... He's almost gone. There's nothing I can do.

Misty: no! he can't be gone! He can't be! This is Ash were talking about!

Before anyone can stop her she runs by the doctor, down the hall, and to Ash's room.

Misty: Ash, please don't die! You can't die! I love you, I can't live without you!

But Ash remains silent. Misty looks at his handsome face, through her tear-streaked face. The doctor leads everyone into the room, to pay their final respects. He looks sadly at her.

Misty: please don't die Ash! We never got to do anything together. We never got to go out on a date, or share long walks in the moonlight. We never got to get married, and have kids ,and raise a family together!

She found herself slowly leaning in towards him. "We never even got to share a kiss", she whispered as she brought her lips to his.

The doctor looked at her for a minute, before casting one, final glance at Ash's monitor. "I don't believe it!!"

***** 1 hour later *****

Ash slowly opened his eyes. All he could see was white everywhere.

Ash: I guess I must be in heaven. I don't feel anymore pain.

Misty: you're not in heaven and you're not sick.

Ash almost had a heart attack. He turned his head and saw that he was in a hospital room, and that Misty was sitting next to him.

Ash: Misty! What's going on?

Misty: you're at the hospital Ash. You suffered a heart attack brought on by the toxins. You almost died. But, you're fine now.

Ash: how?! The doctor said their was no cure?!

Misty: I cured you!

Ash: what do you mean?

Misty: it was around twelve years ago, I think.

***** Flashback*****

Violet: Like, what are you doing Daisy?

Daisy: Like, I'm playing with this chemistry set I, like, ordered through the mail, Violet.

Violet: Like, why would you, like, get a chemistry set!?

Daisy: So, I could, like, experiment!

No, put those down misty!

Violet: oh my gosh! She, like, swallowed them!

Daisy: quick, we got to, like, get her to a hospital!

***** hospital *****

Lily: doctor, will she like, be okay. She's, like, our little sister! Tell me she'll be okay!

Doctor: believe it or not, she's fine!

Sisters: what?!

Doctor: for some reason those chemicals she ingested haven't poisoned her! Strangely enough they've become part of her DNA. Incidentaly, those were very rare chemicals and not much is known about them. Whose to say how they will effect her in the future!

***** End Flashback *****

Ash: so, you're saying that those chemicals you swallowed 12 years ago, were actually a cure for my poison? How did you find out in time?

Misty: actually it was an accident! I was so sad when I thought you had left me, without us ever even sharing a kiss. So when I kissed you, I cured you! That's the power of love!

Ash: I see! What did the doctor's have to say?

Misty: those quacks wanted me to work here, and make me kiss total strangers that were poisoned! I told them heck no!

Ash: ha ha! Then what?

Misty: they said since my sisters didn't remember where they had gotten the chemistry set from, then they would have to harvest my saliva, so they could make some antidotes. Basically I had to drool in a cup for half an hour!

Ash: ha ha! That's my Misty! So you refused to kiss perfect strangers huh?

Misty: that's right! My lips are meant for one person!

She leant down and kissed him. Brock, Ms. Ketchum, and Team Rocket walked in.

Ms. Ketchum: oh, Ash sweety, I'm so happy you're all right!

Ash: so am I mom! That reminds me! What was it you wanted to tell me?

Ms. Ketchum: sadly, your father died the same way. I felt you were ready to learn the truth about his departure.

Ash: I see. Well, thanks to Misty, no one else will have to suffer that death!

They kissed again. Jessie and James looked at each other.

James: say Jessie, care for a bite without trouble? If you're really hungry I'll make it double!

Jessie: sounds like fun to me! Let's blast off again!

Meowth: Meowth, that's right!

Jessie and James went out the door, holding hands, with Meowth right behind them.

Brock: I'm the only one without a girlfriend! Why me?!

Nurse joy walks into the room.

Nurse Joy: are you Brock Slate?

Brock: I sure am nurse joy! Can I help you?

Nurse Joy: well, my friend and I had these movie tickets, but she had to cancel at the last minute. I've heard about you from the other Joys and was wondering if you'd like to go?

Brock: I'd be glad to! Right this way miss!

As Brock led nurse joy out of the room she thought, "that talking Meowth better pay me big for this!!!"

***** And so Ash and Misty lived happily ever after, the doctor's made an antidote to Ash's poison, and nurse joy had so much fun with Brock that she decided not to charge Meowth, not realizing that, having never learned pay day, he had no money in the first place!

a/n: and that's all folks! Review, if that is what you wish!
