Brath walks up to them to see if they ok "you all ok?" she asks everyone as the battle ended and shook Donald's hand as she looks around for anything weird or out of place she thinks 'it's weird the organisms haven't attacked ? '.

"this is weird very weird no group as a attacked us" she tells everyone in the stadium

The Tournament still was on and it was about to be the Finals. But for a moment or so... People were taking some time to unwind.

in the Waiting room...

Jeremy was the first to notice a pokemon Ranger... or what may have looked like one.



Jeremy: *Putting on some lipstick and Spritzing on some perfume* The finals are coming up... There's no telling as to who's gonna face off against the other team... or person... who ever it may be.

Sandy: I don't know. But we're in the finals... and that means... that it's gonna be for the main prize. But who's gonna be winning it? Who?

Suddenly...

@Mrgrimjaw

Jeremy: *To the ranger* Yeah. We're okay. No organizations in sight here. Why would you suggest that there was? Something wrong?

But something else was to come... What could it have been?

"I'd like to know myself," Donald added. He had been having no luck trying to track the Teams' movements thus far and the presence of a Pokémon Ranger suggested that one or more of them may be mobilizing now if not soon.

"I'd like to know myself," Donald added. He had been having no luck trying to track the Teams' movements thus far and the presence of a Pokémon Ranger suggested that one or more of them may be mobilizing now if not soon.

It was only a mere few minutes before they were to find out who was going against who in the finals when... The Lights dimmed...

Jeremy: *Looking around and not seeing anyone there* Who's doing that? Who did that?

What a question, twerpish indeed!

We'll answer these questions when we feel the need!

Bringing the blinding white light of evil into the future!

Thrusting the hammer of justice down onto the black darkness of the universe!

Carving our names in the Rock of Eternity!



Jessie: The fiery destroyer, Jessie!



James: And with thunderous emotion, I am James!
Meowth: Wisest of the wise, Meowth!
All 3: And now gather, under the name of Team Rocket!

Jeremy: I know who those are...

Anistar: Who're they?

Jeremy: They're team Rocket. Notorious bad guys. However... it turns out that they're fans of my sisters Lisa and Nicole and me.

Anistar: Really? Trippy.

Jessie: *Walking over* Passion Kiss... Thank god we've found you.

James: We were pretty worried about what was going on.

Jeremy: Why? What happened?

Meowth: Team Magma's been sighted... in California. They're stationed around the area that has the Road called San Andreas Fault Road.

Sandy: What?! You're kidding? There?!

James: Afraid so. But that's not the only part... Team Aqua is also seeking to sacrifice the two captives that they have. Lisa and Nicole. Sacrifice them to the legendary pokemon Kyogre.

Jeremy: What do they want?

James: They want you to join them.

Jessie: They even have a ultimatum... Their message from what we've heard was very clear... It reads: "Passion Kiss, Join us. Join us and we shall spare your sisters from meeting a watery fate. Refuse us... and after we sacrifice your sisters... We'll come after you and you'll be begging that we spared you from a watery demise."

Anistar: That isn't good.

Jessie: What do you suggest be done, Passion Kiss?

Jeremy: We don't do anything for now. They're just trying to get a reaction. If we respond... we'll be playing into their hands. We will be doing exactly what they're anticipating. For now... we monitor their movements and keep record of what happens. The art of war. wait for your chance to strike... look to see their guard lower and then when they don't expect anything... you hit them and hit them... hard.

Jessie: They're your sisters though. They're gonna be in danger.

Jeremy: I know. But if we do what they expect now... my sisters will most certainly die. They will be harmed just to spite me... since as you said their message was clear that they were wanting me to join them.

James: He's got a point, Jessie. These Team Aqua guys don't play fair.

Meowth: What's going on here anyway?

Sandy: A Tournament.

James: A Tournament?!

Jeremy: Yeah. We're in it. Sandy and I are in the finals. We're soon to find out who we're gonna be fighting against.

Jessie: *Intrigued* Hmmm...

Who would Jeremy and Sandy battle against in the finals? Would it be someone they would not expect?

Donald had a look of alarm when he heard Team Rocket deliver Team Aqua's ultimatum. Snapping into action, Donald addressed Team Rocket. "I have a question: do any of you have a phone?"

Kimberly handed over her phone. She was worried for Ella who had gone to the exact area of where team Magma was spotted. She was heading into a trap but she was murmuring lyrics to herself.

Ella: *singing* Angel of Darkness
Angel of Darkness
The world is in your hand
But I will fight until the end
Angel of Darkness
Angel of Darkness
Don't follow your command
But I will fight and I will stand
When darkness falls pain is all
The Angel of Darkness
Will leave behind and I will fight
The love is lost
Beauty and light
Have vanished from garden of delight
The dreams are gone
Midnight has come
The darkness is our new kingdom
Angel of Darkness
Angel of Darkness
The world is in your hand
But I will fight until the end
Angel of Darkness
Angel of Darkness
Don't follow your command
But I will fight and I will stand
Hunt goes on deep in the night
Time to pray down on your knees
You can't hide from me
Eternal light
Until my last breath I will fight
(I will fight, I will fight, I will fight, I will fight)
Now realize
The stars they die
Darkness has fallen in paradise
But we'll be strong
And we will fight
Against the creatures of the night
Angel of Darkness
Angel of Darkness
The world is in your hand
But I will fight until the end
Angel of Darkness
Angel of Darkness
Don't follow your command
But I will fight and I will stand

Ella suddenly found herself surrounded by to many people for her to face and she had to put her hands up letting team Magam win. . . for now.

Donald had a look of alarm when he heard Team Rocket deliver Team Aqua's ultimatum. Snapping into action, Donald addressed Team Rocket. "I have a question: do any of you have a phone?"

Jeremy: *Blushes* Guys... you haven't heard yet... but *Referring to Donald* He has been found out to be my long lost twin Brother.

James: Your brother? Long lost Brother?!

Jeremy: Yeah. Shocking, isn't it? But it's a huge surprise.

Jessie: He sure looks pretty lean and strong. *To Donald* Team Rocket don't have cellphones. At least we don't. The many other operatives however... do. Although we usually have Hand-held Walkie talkie's. But we do of course have a radio. We've been listening to such a station and came across amazing tunes. *To Jeremy* Hearing yours... Lisa and Nicole's.

Meowth: We actually carry it with us.

Radio: *As Lord Arnold* AND THE HITS... JUST KEEP ON COMING! Hey there you groove chicks and dudes... This is your beloved Watchdog of the City of Metropolis Lord Arnold with a lot more of the good ole tunes that you all have come to love time and time again... To start us off to a starry-eyes start for one and the same... and to all you avid listeners and of course fans and followers of the United States Superstar and the Rising Lights... The Lightfoot Dreams and never to ever forget Passion Kiss... Here is some tunes from them to get us all rolling phat with the beat and rhythm... First one is a # from the Gay flavor of the bree and the dire flash of a new gen of Drag Teen Desmond. Here's Passion Kiss and his # Lights... here on the station that knows no bounds... MRHAP Metropolis... The Station that keeps on bringing the best and nothing but the best to one and all throughout the heartland and the reaching all over the world... one hit at a time...

Jeremy: *On the Radio; Singing* "I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping up the strength I need to push me

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone

Noises, I play within my head
Touch my own skin and hope they'll still be there
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
In another place the only time I feel safe

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone

(Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights)

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone

Home, home
(Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights)

Home, home
(Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights)

Home, home
(Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights)

Home, home
(Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights)"

Anistar: Wow! That was Awesome! Passion, You rocked!

Seconds later...

P.A: *Chiming* The lineup for the Finals...

The Screen came on...



Jeremy K. Lightfoot/Passion Kiss
Sandy Westmoore/Rainbow Kiss

Vs.

Who was it? Was it another Member of the family... or was it someone...else?

Back in California... Just on the east side of Glendale California...

South Pasadena...



Jessie: *smoking* Pidgeotto, you need to relax. You've been on the prowl for battle for a long time. Haven't stopped since we left Burbank. I don't know what it is that you see up there while flying... However why not stick close and just rest on my shoulder and rest your wings a while. You need it more than you may realize.

It was only a moment later that she made over to where there was food and grabbed something to chow down on. Jessie went for some Pizza and as she had her pizza... She made sure that she fed her pokemon and gave them a good meal.

While eating...

Jessie: Want to listen to some music while we rest and eat?

Her pokemon nodded...

Jessie: You got it. Let's hear the radio. Listen into some music.

She turned the radio on and they began to listen...

James walked around the area, his primary Pokèmon partner at his heels. They were exploring the different shops and whatnot in the area, as Vermont didn't really have too shops. Not like this state did, anyway. Sure, Vermont has it's perks, such as the fall foilage, which Riolu loved playing with the fallen leaves, but Vermont lacked what most states took for granted.

"I always knew that Vermont was a small state, but I guess that I never realized exactly how small it really is." James chuckled to himself after he spoke. The man soon paused, realizing that Riolu wasn't closely following at his heels.

"Riolu, where did you..." James started to ask where his Riolu went, and soon caught a glimpse of his Riolu disappearing into some bushes.

"Riolu!" James called, letting out a frustrated sigh. His Pokèmon was easily distracted sometimes, and this was one of them. James started to follow Riolu, and he soon caught up to his Pokèmon.

"Riolu!" The Pokèmon exclaimed, pointing at a woman that was smoking a cigarette.

"Come on, Riolu. We just ate lunch at a restaurant. You can't possibly still be hungry. That, and I'd rather not second-hand smoke." James said.

Riolu shook his head, and pointed to the woman again. While Riolu's aura abilities weren't fully developed, they were developed enough for him to read the woman's aura. Riolu could tell that something wasn't right.

Jessie Looked up and noticed a Riolu...

She was not sure what to make of it and didn't know if it were friend or foe. Pidgeotto felt as if the Riolu was gonna attack her trainer and immediately launched a wing attack. Protecting Jessie...

Jessie looked to then see a man walking closeby...



Jessie: *Putting out her light and Blowing the rest of the smoke away* Who the heck are you? Just passing by? You... lost?

She didn't know if she could just lower her guard and be trusting of the young man who came within her reach. She was defensive towards alot of people as the last two years were considered to be a notifiable nightmare to her. It made her untrusting of people. But for some reason... She couldn't detect a hint of danger coming from the man. Her Arcanine came out and sniffed the scent coming from the guy and it was then where it Growled once then howled in realizing that the man was not a foe. Just another fellow trainer.

The rest of her pokemon just sat and enjoyed the nice fresh air...

"My name is James. James Jones. No, I am not lost, but my Riolu seems to want to change that." James chuckled at his own statement about Riolu wanting to get lost.

"Riolu!" Riolu exclaimed as he avoided the wing attack. Then Riolu looked as if he was about to counter with force palm, only to be stopped when his trainer noticed and spoke to Riolu.

"Riolu! No! No battles!" James called to the Pokèmon.

Riolu calmed down, but kept his senses alert for more incoming attacks from Pidgeotto.

"Riolu..." Riolu apologized.

"Sorry about that. He is easily distracted at times. I guess it is because he doesn't know how to control his aura abilities yet, like a Lucario would." James said. "May I ask who you are?"

<Snipped quote by MacieLightfoot>

Jessie nodded as she understood the situation...

Jessie: It's quite alright. I guess it should be understood on how some pokemon might get. I'm Jessie. Jessie Levinson. I'm the only one left in my family as... well. You don't want to know. So... don't pull your cork for asking about it. It'd cause you to break into sobs. Trust me. I had many a nights where i had to block out all the flashbacks that pertained to facing what it was that i'd lost.

She didn't know what more to tell as it was just the first time she saw him and spoke to someone more than just a casual "Hey", "How're you doing?", "What's up?" That's all it was.

Jessie: Want to see my pokemon? I have a few... but they're pretty sweet.

Brath "so team rocket here you three are underaresst!" go charzard!" she threws him out "grab them!" she oders he roars

charzard grabs the three captureing them

Brath "so team rocket here you three are underaresst!" go charzard!" she threws him out he growls "now mmmm wich to do mega or Dynamax?" she asks herself " charzard Dynamax now!" she calls him back pokeball gets biger she throws it realsesing a huge charzard " now capture them!".

charzard grabs the three

Jeremy: *Commanding for a ceasefire* HEY! YOU charizard! Shashay Away! Now! Leave them alone. They're friends. They're my fans... Release them. They're not the bad guys mentioned.

Sandy: They're here to help us in the fight against Team Magma and Aqua.

There were a bit of confusion... Would the air get cleared before it was too late?

Brath walks up the Jeremy " um no they still wanted crimnals " she hands him the wanted books jessy and james were in it " i bring them in if they agree to spill all team rockets screarts i will see what the procuster willing make a deal"

Brath walks up the Jeremy " um no they still wanted crimnals " she hands him the wanted books jessy and james were in it " i bring them in if they agree to spill all team rockets screarts i will see what the procuster willing make a deal"

Jeremy suddenly got mad...

Jeremy: You know what? I don't give a shit right now if they were wanted for spray painting on a public building. You're not taking them anywhere. In case... *Starting to get mad* In case you didn't realize... my sisters Lisa and Nicole are captives of Team Aqua. My mom is captive of Team Magma. Team Rocket... as bad as you would rather chime them to being... They're fans of mine and they are helping in the rescue of my family. You leave them... the hell alone or Passion Kiss's fury is gonna be out to make a statement. As far as i'm concerned... they're my friends and anyone who threatens my friends... threaten me and i don't take that lightly.

Sandy: I'd listen to what he says if i were you. You don't want to see him mad. Trust me... You don't.

The tension was rising... Someone ICE IT DOWN. QUICK!

Kimberly didn't know what to do when she received a text message from Ella saying she was in trouble so she just ran to Jeremy and the crew.

Kimberly: "Guys we have a problem, Ella she's been taken apparently she was set up now Team Magma and Team Aqua have her." Just then a threatening message appeared on her phone screen from Team Magma and Team Aqua. Telling her that she could save Ella if she would leave everyone else and if she would stay out of their way. She looked to Jeremy worried.

<Snipped quote by Smarty Jones>

Jessie nodded as she understood the situation...

Jessie: Want to see my pokemon? I have a few... but they're pretty sweet.

"Alright. I won't ask what happened. But, sure. I love to meet other trainers' Pokèmon. I have a total of six, a full party. I can call them out if you want to meet them. They are mostly fire and dark types, but they are easy to get along with." James said, smiling softly.

"Riolu?" Riolu asked, wondering if his trainer included him in the party of six Pokèmon.

"Of course I was including you. Just not with the fire and dark types." James responded to Riolu's question with a chuckle.

Kimberly didn't know what to do when she received a text message from Ella saying she was in trouble so she just ran to Jeremy and the crew.

Kimberly: "Guys we have a problem, Ella she's been taken apparently she was set up now Team Magma and Team Aqua have her." Just then a threatening message appeared on her phone screen from Team Magma and Team Aqua. Telling her that she could save Ella if she would leave everyone else and if she would stay out of their way. She looked to Jeremy worried.

Jeremy took notice of the message and gasped. He didn't know what to think... However he now knew that this was getting serious.

[@mrgrimjaw}

Jeremy: *To the Ranger* Care to release Team Rocket now? Or do we have to make a unneeded fuss over the issue. The Tournament is not done... the Finals are still in the line-up. But now... we got not just 2 rescue operations... We now have 3. If Team Rocket has done anything wrong... It's try to serve a cause and actually be doing a good deed for someone other than themselves.

Saphiroth: Come on... Let them go. Dude... be cool. Be cool.

@Frostwolf

James: *Managing to reach his pokeball* Ha. *Calling out a pokemon* Woobat... take flight.

"Woobat"

James: Woobat, Take to the skies... keep a watch out for any signs of Team Magma's or Team Aqua's grunts. IF you see anything... come back and sound off.

Woobat: *Nods before flying off*...

Now the question remained... Who was gonna be in the finals? Jeremy and Sandy... against who?

<Snipped quote by MacieLightfoot>

"Alright. I won't ask what happened. But, sure. I love to meet other trainers' Pokèmon. I have a total of six, a full party. I can call them out if you want to meet them. They are mostly fire and dark types, but they are easy to get along with." James said, smiling softly.

"Riolu?" Riolu asked, wondering if his trainer included him in the party of six Pokèmon.

"Of course I was including you. Just not with the fire and dark types." James responded to Riolu's question with a chuckle.

Jessie called out her pokemon and showed them off...

Jessie: Arcanine... A Fire type. Charmander... Fire type. I call him Flames... He's pretty suave though. Pidgeotto who you met i am sure... A Normal/Flying type. Zebstrika... Electric type. Dragonair... Dragon type. And last but isn't the least. Timburr... A fighting type.

Timburr: *Twirling the wood in the air and doing tricks with it* ...

Jessie: Not bad for a team, wouldn't you suggest? They've been with me since before i began my journey. I won them... well most of them in a Karaoke contest. Charmander was given to me by my benefactor Andre. Before he was snuffed by Team Magma's leader. I got a beef to pick with him and it won't be subtle. Pidgeotto i caught on my own.

It was about a moment later when...

Jessie: *Looking at the time and seeing that it was starting to get a bit chilly* It's almost mid-afternoon. I should get some ground behind us and make way over to the next area. *Thinking* Why don't you join along. It's probably better than just going lonewolf. I've fared well with it... but because i had to. You... Not sure how you'll handle it. And if we're gonna come across any dead action from Those clods... it's best to stick close... Traveling in pairs. You know?

It was dawning on her that this was gonna be a journey that could become bigger than she may have figured possible.

James soon called out his own Pokèmon. A zorua, a houndour, an Eevee, a poochyena and a litten. Zorua, however, decided that it would try it's illusion ability and seemingly changed into a Lucario.

"See? Mostly fire and dark types, with the exception of Riolu and Eevee." James said as his Pokèmon went over to greet Jessie's pokemon. It wasn't too often that his Pokèmon met other Pokèmon outside of battling, so they were happy to see another trainer's Pokèmon.

"You've got a good team. They seem to be getting along with my pokemon. All of them are still babies, but with enough training, they'll be hard to beat." James said before processing Jessie's question about teaming up.

"Well, traveling with somebody is usually easier than going it alone. So, yeah. If you're willing, I would be happy to work with you. As I always say, work smarter, not harder." James said with a nod.

Jessie chuckled at the quote and smiles...

Jessie: That's pretty amusing for a saying. My family usually followed a saying speaking like

A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.

It's something that my family believed in. My family... you see... they were ranchers. Farm girl and Farm boy tough. They were the type of people who were like fixers. Kinda like that one catchline you hear on that movie about this one robot wanting to make a difference in the world. Invent. "See a need, Fill a need."

Jessie's Pokemon all stirred to that line and jumped up in recognition as they've heard it be said by the daycare people back when they were just babies. They remembered that line.

Jessie: You know... You're right about our pokemon getting along. My pokemon seem to really love being near yours. For them to befriend just any random pokemon is natural... but these ones were so adamant in protecting me and guarding me... they didn't see much use in befriending others. So... for them to do this... It's amazing. Really incredible.

Arcanine: *Sniffing and smelling a scent of something* Arcanine... Nine... Arcanine.

Jessie: *Noticing Her Arcanine detecting something* Hey there, Cinnamon flame... Something itching your attention?

Was it something good... or was there trouble nearing?
