CHAPTER - 4 { An Episode-1 }

Viridian City___

"What's going on?, " Asked Misty as she panicked and looked around the hall.

"Be careful, " Said Kota in a low voice but enough for Ash and Misty to hear that.

"Prepare for Trouble!, " A woman in a short white t-shirt with a red coloured capital 'R' on it.

Her extremely long hair in dark pink curled at the end and she also wore a short white skirt.

"Make it double!, " Then came a man in the same outfit as the woman.

To protect the world from devastation!

To unite all peoples within our nation!

To denounce the evils of truth and love!

To extend our reach to the stars above!

"Jessie!, " Introduced the woman as she did a pose which seemed practiced.

"James!, " Then it was the turn of the man to introduce himself like the woman.

Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!

Surrender now, or prepare to fight!

"Meowth! That's right!, " At the last, a creature that looked like a cat with a gold plate on its forehead spoke.

The two then pull out their pokeballs and let their pokemon do some work.

A Koffing came out of one of the balls and filled the air in the Pokemon Center with smoke.

The Pokemon Center's electrical system was destroyed in the scheme to steal the Pokémon inside.

"Who are they!, " Exclaimed Nurse Joy, coming out of the operation room in a hurry.

She noticed that the electricity in the whole Pokemon Center stopped working.

"Let's go to the storage room, " Suggested Kota as he moved the stretcher on which was Pikachu.

"Hurry!, " Said Nurse Joy while retreating with Kota, Ash and Misty towards the storage room.

'Keeping Gyarados was a good idea, ' Thought Kota as he slit his hand on the pokeball at his waist belt.

The power inside the storage room was initially cut out, the room became dark because of no light.

"Don't worry, for situations like this. We have our backup system!, " Informed Nurse Joy, not wanting to make Ash, Misty and Kota worried.

"Pica Pica Pica Chu Chu Chu".

On a machine, multiple tiny Pikachus started running in a circle, also releasing electricity.

The machine absorbed the electricity and ran the lights in the storage room once again.

"Wow! So cute Pikachus!, " Amazed at the site, Misty looked at the tiny Pikachus with sparkling eyes.

"Don't worry Pikachu! You will be alright!, " Said Ash while stroking Pikachu on his head.

On the side, Nurse Joy begins transporting as many Pokémon as she can to Pewter City's Pokémon Center.

Suddenly, James' Koffing broke through the doors.

"Ash, do something!, " Insisted Misty as she came behind Kota and hid.

"Huh? Yes! Go pokeball! Do your magic!, " Said Ash while picking up a fallen pokeball and throwing it towards Koffing.

With a flash of light, a small bird pokemon came out of the pokeball. It was Pidgey but then was scared off by the enemy's Ekans.

Ash threw two more pokeballs which ended up in fails, an empty pokeball and Rattata.

Which of course didn't help them even a bit.

"What are you doing, Ash!, " Said Misty, getting really angry, she then walked forward.

"Go, Goldeen!".

A fish creature comes out but all it does is to twitch on the floor.

Misty saw this and facepalmed, though without water, it flailed helplessly before being recalled.

"Let me, " Said Kota, pulling the pokeball from his waist belt. As he threw it, a white flash came out of the ball.

A very big pokemon in blue color was visible, it fit in the storage room with extreme difficulty.

"Gyarados!, " Exclaimed Misty, she looked at Kota's Gyarados with admiration.

"It's huge!, " Seeing that Gyarados barely fit in the room, Misty guessed its size.

'I should take care of the space before calling Gyarados out, ' Thought Kota while looking at the angry face of Gyarados.

"Hydro Pump!, " Said Kota pointing his finger towards Team Rocket.

"Gaaaa!".

A blue light came from Gyarados' mouth, then came the huge blow of water.

"Aaaaa!, " Screamed Team Rocket as they were blasted off with the roof of Pokemon Center.

Team Rocket was thrown away but not forgetting to declares their mission to capture Ash's not-so-ordinary Pikachu for their boss.

Flying debris then punctures their Meowth-shaped balloon, and the trio blasts off in the sky.

Everything outside in the sky could be seen because the roof was no more.

"Ah, about the roof. I am sorry, " Apologized Kota while bowing towards Nurse Joy.

"It's okay! You don't have to, it was all because of those weird people, " Said Nurse Joy to Kota with a smile on her face.

"Brother, you are so strong! I really want to fight you now!, " Said Ash as he came near Kota and stared at him with determination.

"Yes, you even have a Gyarados! I also want one and I want to become the best water type trainer!, " Said Misty as she looked at the giant Gyarados without blinking her eyes.

"Work hard, that's all you need, " Said Kota, crouching down and helping Nurse Joy pick up the pokeballs.

"I will also help!, " Both Ash and Misty joined to help Nurse Joy in collecting the fallen pokeballs.

The night went away, a new morning took its place bringing sunlight to the city.

The Pokemon Center was about to start building the roof once again but not today.

"Here your pokeballs, Kota, " Said Nurse Joy smiling and handing the two pokeballs back to Kota.

"Thanks, " Replied Kota, he then walked towards the entrance door to see two figures standing.

"Brother, where will you go now?, " Asked Ash while looking at Kota in a new light.

"Pikachu!".

On Ash' shoulder, Pikachu stared at Kota. He remembered yesterday how Kota pulled the stretcher.

"Pewter City?, " Said Kota not completely sure but he knew he had to get Gym Badges.

"We are also going there! Why don't we head their together!, " Suggest Ash as he and Misty anticipated for answers.

"It's fine, I will go separately, " Said Kota as he waved his hand towards Ash and Misty.

He walked on the road of Viridian City, his next stop. The Viridian Forest and then Pewter Gym.
