Ok, sorry for the long wait, but I won't rant on, read away! Disclaimer: I Don't Own Pokémon.
"This is talking"
Ash could almost feel in his sleep that he was being watched, and it made him slightly uneasy. He couldn't be to safe these days, he was Team Rocket's main target, but also their toughest. He could feel someone else's presence nearby, but they didn't seem to be moving. He'd learned how to sense these things over the years, and it had saved his life more then once.
Pikachu's ears twitched and he opened his eyes lazily, looking around. He yawned in his usually high-pitched tone and rubbed his eyes before spotting Misty. "Pi? Pi Pikachupi." He greeted with a smile.
"Good morning." Misty smiled back. "Is Ash ok Pikachu? He's been acting sort of funny."
Pikachu looked confused, then lowered his ears. When she asked him what was wrong he simply told it 'was not his business to say'.
Looking down again Misty frowned. "What's bothering you Ash?" She wondered, giving him a light kiss on the cheek.
Ash's eyes opened immediately and he sat up, looking at Misty with slight shock. He narrowed his eyes and looked away. "Guess she thinks now that one loser's gone she can have another." Ash thought bitterly.
"Ash..." Misty looked at him with sad eyes. When he was looking at her, his eyes didn't have that same spark as they used to, they were lifeless, and dull.. What was going on with him? She looked at the ground and sighed. "So, when are you planning on finding out what Team Rocket's up to?"
Ash didn't respond for a moment, then replied. "We haven't decided on anything yet."
"Why don't you just break in to their HQ?" Misty asked, tilting her head when Ash laughed. "What?"
"Are you crazy?" He asked, looking at her, smiling but his eyes serious. "Not even I'd chance that, no matter how strong my pokémon are then could never take on an army."
"So what now?"
Pikachu leapt onto Ash's lap and followed his trainers gaze as they both looked to the sky, then sighed looking down. "I don't know... but I have a really bad feeling about this..."
Mewtwo's gaze suddenly turned to his left, at a large boulder. He raised his left arm and a ball of black psychic emitted from it, charging towards the boulder. As it did so, the boulders stony coat seemed to flicker like a television screen before disappearing, revealing a helicopter, which flew up and out of the way of the attack. Mewtwo looked angrily at the helicopter as he flew in front of him, narrowing his eyes in hate at the symbol on the front, 'TR'. There was a slight crackle of a radio then Giovanni's voice was heard. "Good to see you again." [I wish I could say likewise...] Mewtwo spoke with psychic telepathy. {Why must you torture me like this? Why can't you just leave. Me. Alone?!] "Sorry, but that won't be happening any time soon." As Giovanni spoke a trap door opened at the bottom of the plane and a metal ball opened out. [What is that?] Mewtwo asked in confusion, but with a hint of anger. "Though my last method to recruit you failed, my new one is sure to work. It works by attacking your mind, making think of nothing but serving me..." Giovanni's voice had that same icy tone to it as he spoke. Mewtwo raised his arms in front of him, but before he could do anything the metal ball had transformed into a steel plate and lunged at him, small claws digging into his shoulders and sides so not to come off. Mewtwo fell to one knee in pain, eyes shut tightly in pain. "Your going to be the cause of the worlds destruction." Giovanni said, voice taunting. "Because of you Team Rocket can now successfully clone super Pokémon, like you, but at a much faster pace. And with you by my side leading my army of clones, the world will fall under the power of Team Rocket." Mewtwo could feel his mind being corrupted, his thoughts being manipulated. He knew he would be under Team Rocket's control soon, he had to do something. Speaking through mind, he warned the only one he could...
"Pikachu pi, pi, kachu!" Pikachu sang his own version of the ketchup song happily as he dodged out of Ash’s grip, running around the guest room. "Would you to be quiet!" Misty whispered harshly, poking her head in the door. "Kandi and I are trying to sleep and it is past midnight!" She shut the door behind her as she left. "Ya right, that little squirts up playing." Ash whispered to Pikachu. "They again... who are we to talk, eh?" "Pi pika!" Pikachu agreed, then tiled his head. [You ok?] he asked. Ash was looking at the floor. "It's just... this whole thing with Kandi... do my feeling mean anything to her?" He looked up at him long time companion for reassurance, but Pikachu didn't seem to have anything to say. "I let her know how I felt before I left all those years ago, how could she just turn on me and go with someone else?" He turned his back to Pikachu and looked out the window. "I just don't understand." [Maybe it didn't mean anything-] "If she cared she wouldn't have let this happen..." Ash mumbled, cutting Pikachu off. Suddenly the door opened and Misty walked in. "Um Ash, you better come here a second." Ash wiped his eyes before he turned around to face her, a confused expression on his face. "What?" "It's.... that's clone Pikachu. He says Mewtwo's become a part of Team Rocket..."
