It’s been two months and still no word from Misty’s sisters or Brock.  Ash and Misty were spending their days as the gym leaders as well as they could and they only argued about little things these days.  At the moment, they are in their costumes having some fun.  Ash is flying around near the ceiling and Misty is taking a swim in the aquarium/pool/gym floor.  Every so often, she surfaces and Ash swoops down to pull her laughing out of the water and fly her around before dropping her back in.  She knows he has bad aim, so has taken all the platforms out for now.  Ash has her in is “talons” when they here a knock at the door and Ash drops her back in so as to go land and see who it is.  He doesn’t even get a chance to land when there is a click and the door flies open to reveal the sisters and Brock.  “Hey sister, so what Brock says is true.  You certainly have a taste for fun these days.”
    Misty climbs out of the pool, takes off the mask and shakes her hair out.  She has been keeping it down for most of the time she has taken care of the gym, and runs her hand through it before turning to her sisters.  “I wondered if you were ever going to be back.”
“We decided to surprise you, and after seeing this we certainly don’t regret it.”
Ash has managed to land and get himself out of the costume(with Misty’s help).  “We weren’t sure about staying in one place so long, but it’s been a blast!”
“We had a good time, too.   A trip around the world certainly gave us time to relax.  Being gym leaders as long as we have gets boring, especially without a boyfriend.  That reminds me, Brock was fun too and he decided that he wants to stay with us and get to know us better.”
“Fine with me” said Misty “give my starmie back and I’ll call it even.”
“Deal” all the sisters said at once.
    At that point, another knock came and Giovanni walked in.  “Finally decided to battle us yourself, aye?  You sent so many cronies for me to cream, I thought you’d never come.”  Ash taunted.
“I’ve come now, and I wish to battle you, Misty and Brock.”
“Any stakes?”  Ash asked.
“Just our reputations.”
“Fine with me.  Any objections from you two.”  There weren’t any, the other two were itching to have a go at Boss Rocket too.
“Three on three battle, no replacements.”
“Accepted.”
    The sisters acted as referees and the battle commenced.  Pikachu finished Giovanni’s arcanine easily enough with electrical attacks but was lifted off his feet by a hyper beam by his rhydon.  Brock did little better with his Onix.  Misty’s starmie made quick work of his rhydon, but was very badly outgunned by his nidoqueen.  But before starmie could be destroyed, it started to glow pure white.  “Evolution?”  Brock was stunned.  It wasn’t an evolution though, the psychic side of starmie was being tapped, it’s center started to gain all the glow that was once all over it and the nidoqueen disappeared in a flash of light and reappeared, unconscious on the other side of the room.  A familiar voice said “these people are not to be victimized by you, I was once your slave, and these people saved me from the torment that my time with you left me.”  Giovanni took a step back looking terrified and fled but before he got far, the ground opened before him and many legendary pokemon appeared.  They and Giovanni all disappeared.  “What was that?”  One of the sisters asked.
“The pokemon guardian tribunal.”  Brock whispered in awe.  “Whatever Giovanni did, it was serious.”
“Giovanni is responsible for many atrocities.  I guess this got the attention of our friends in high places.”  Misty stated.  No more could be said, so they shut the door and proceeded to talking of their plans.  Before they could, they noticed that starmie hadn’t stopped glowing.  “What now?” asked Misty.  Her question was answered when starmie evolved, gaining a reddish color and another layer of points.  “HiyaHuu!”  It said.  The others just looked agape at what had happened.  “Quick!  Get Dexter” Misty yelled.  It was fetched and when scanned the new pokemon didn’t show on any record.  “Scan and send results to professor Oak.”  Misty commanded it.
“What is this, then?”  Ash asked.
“A new pokemon, since I saw and own it, I shall name it starwe.”  No more was said and they got back to what they ought to be doing now.
    Brock was offended slightly when he heard that Misty was willing to trade him for a starmie, but wasn’t too sad that they approved of his staying at the gym.  Ash and Misty being freed meant he could go out and try to get every badge in Kanto and Johto in order to save time later.  The two leagues weren’t to have another major tournament for two years anyway.  As they said their goodbyes and went out on their journey, Ash wondered if he would ever become a master and Misty wondered if the job paid well.

Note: I couldn't possibly own pokemon and you know it.  This is the end of the first story and the others are coming soon (I hope).
