A/N: Here's chapter 5. I've made up my mind finally on what James does. I just hope it satisfies what you readers were hoping for.

Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon.

The morning sun rose as Kojirou reentered Musashi. Musashi had long give Kojirou one set of the keys to her apartment, as did Kojirou. Kojirou over the course of the night thought and perfected his plan over and over before deciding to finally tell Musashi. She would need to know. After all it was because of her that Kojirou was even thinking of doing it. Kojirou had long decided to forgive Kasumi and Haruka for what they did to him, but Musashi's case was completely different. His life was full of pranks. He was raised in a community where laughing about everything was the only way to live. From his first gentlemen classes with his tutor to his betrothal to Jessiebel James laughed. When he was finally alone in his bedroom, James would laugh it all out. He had explained it all to Growly to he laughed to keep sane. If he pretend with all his might, hopefully it wouldn't hurt it. James pretended it was all a big prank with everyone in one it except him, but soon the laughter left James. When Jessiebel pulled out her Gloom, fan and whip on James, the laughter and the jokes ended for James. It was no longer a laughing matter. Sure having a girl in your house to play and talk to was fun even if you excepted to marry her. The fun and games ended. It became powerful beyond belief. That's when James left. His first escape was at six on a cold Christmas Eve. James was found and bought home with his beloved Growly. James forgot what Jessiebel did. Jessiebel came back and two years later he remembered. James ran away forever from it all.

But Jessie wasn't use to that kind of treatment, Jessie never know a real family. She always lived with a guardian. She never knew his mother past three. She never even met her father. Kojirou pitied Musashi. The revenge was for Musashi. He was sure of it.

Upon reaching the bedroom chamber Kojirou found Musashi getting up. She was fully dressed, but her eyes were bloodshot. Musashi looked like a wreck but today she looked better then after the day at Celadon. "Musashi," whispered Kojirou. There was no response. Kojirou thinking Musashi didn't hear him he edged closer. Lightly he touched her bare shoulders going to have his hand immediately shoveled away.

"Musashi," said Kojirou concerned. Musashi was never like this. Sure she got angry with him and punched him before, but this was the first. She had never not wanted Kojirou's touch after the two admitted their love for another. Musashi got him though his fear of love, and the two was an instant attraction.

"Jessie," said Kojirou again.

"Get away from me. I don't need your pity. I don't need you To…" Immediately Musashi regretted her words when the name registered in her mind. It wasn't him. It was someone else her love. Musashi immediately turned around to see a stunned Kojirou.

"Don't need who? I was right… I wasn't your first. Who was he? Who was the man that destroyed your heart and turned you into this? I thought I was afraid of love, but you were too. Weren't you Jessica?" asked Kojirou filled with hurt. He immediately turned around and ran out the room. His eyes were filled with hurt. He had thought that he was seeing things. He thought that he was her first. He wished he were her first. Each kiss they gave. Each time they slept together. Every night in bed alone Kojirou wondered? Was Jessie a virgin? He wondered if he alone knew her tender areas. He wondered if someone else had kissed his love's lips before.

Now it all came crashing down on him. He was right. His instincts were right. Musashi had experienced love before him. Why hadn't he asked her when they first met? Why was he so interested in Team Rocket that he forgot to ask about her past? Why hadn't he ever questioned her before? Why? Why? Why? Because I was scared of this. He finally admitted it. He was scared. He to know that he wasn't the first. Jessie was jealous and cautious about it the first time. She was scared of arousing the feelings that Jessiebel gave to him. She was scared that she wasn't the first. Now it was James's time. All along he wanted to avenge Jessie's pride, but all long it was actually his pride that he was trying to protect.

Kojirou keep running. He kept running and running. Away from Musashi's pees for him to stop. Kojirou couldn't. He didn't want to here Musashi's explanation. He was more afraid to hear her explanation now then ever. Even though in the back of his head a little thing called conscious was telling him to stop Kojirou couldn't. He ran and ran and ran. Though the hallway and on to an elevator. Kojirou didn't care which floor he ended up on and quickly pushed a billion numbers.

 Just as the door closed Kojirou could have sworn he saw Musashi's face as the elevator door closed. Her face was filled was pleading, but today Kojirou didn't want explanation he wanted revenge. He would take it out on Kasumi and Haruka. He wasn't going to tell Musashi his plan. He wanted Musashi to suffer the agony that he felt right now for being not notified.

Somehow Kojirou wondered into Sekichiku Sitei without knowing it. He managed to find himself into a bar and ordered a bottle of beer. Kojirou grabbed the bottled and dumped it into his mouth. Feeling the refreshing taste of Sekichiku's homemade beer relaxed Kojirou. His angry was nearly demolished, but his revengeful spirit wasn't. Kojirou ordered another bottle of beer and walked into the dark street. Just as he raised it to his mouth a strong grasp enclosed around the bottle pulling it away from him. Kojirou looked startled as he looked up. His vision was blurry and could only make out a young man's face, but the face was deadly familiar.

"What you what?" asked Kojirou. His voice was slurred as he spoke. The young man grimace at the smell of Kojirou's breath.

"To help. You know drinking doesn't solve heart broken problems?" said the man.

"What?" asked Kojirou as he tried to focus his eyesight to pin point the guy. Kojirou wanted to punch the man in the stomach if only he knew where he was.

"Yuck. You need a breath mint badly." The man grinned as he reached into his pouch and pulled out a white pill. "Here take this." The man said handing it to Kojirou.

Kojirou looked down and flipped it away. "How do I know it isn't poison?"

Hmm he isn't has drunk as I thought he was. "Do you think alcohol is poison?" asked the man.

"No!" spat out Kojirou.

"Then this breath mint is no more poisonous than this beer," said the man. Kojirou nodded and reached for the mint. He immediately popped it into his mouth and felt a smoothing sensation go though his body. He felt his body go limp as the young man caught him.

"What was in that?" asked Kojirou. His eyelid flirted as the young man chuckled.

"Told you it is a breath mint. In it sleep powder. Shot wrong pill," said the young man sighing realizing what he did. "Oh well it was good for you." The man tossed the beer bottle behind him left it shatter into a thousand pieces on the ground. The brown yuck liquid created a puddle in front of the saloon door way as the young man dragged Kojirou to his apartment.

Upon arriving he sent Kojirou on the floor and pulled into his coat pocket pulling out a string of keys. He found the right on and slipped it into the door opening it. The man found Kojirou's bed and lied him in it. He pulled off only the shoes and Kojirou's jacket and hung them up on a near by chair. He pulled up the covers and just as he was about to leave Kojirou awoke. He wasn’t fully awake but only partial.

"What do you want?" asked Kojirou.

"To advise you," said the man simply.

"About?"

"Don't do your trick it isn't worth it. Revenge can lead to more revenge. It turns people bitter," said the man simply. "Jessie does love you. You know that right?"

"Who do you think you are?" asked Kojirou. His angry was back. This man got on his nerves. If only he wasn't so tired.

"Your worst nightmare," said man simply as he walked out.

"What?" asked Kojirou not getting it, but sleep over took him before he could question the man any further.

The man walked into the hallway and just as he reached to close the door and peaked inside. "It's for your own good cause after all I am your worst nightmare." The man chuckled under his breath. "Sleep well James." The man closed the door and walked out. When he neared the end of a hallway, a bright light shot from where he was standing and surrounds him shut. When the light disappeared, the mystery man was gone.

As the morning sun shone though Kojirou's bedroom, he woke with a start. Today was workday. Some how he felt a new sense of being when he woke. His need for revenge had disappeared almost as suddenly as it came. Kojirou took his breakfast with the others to find that Musashi wasn't there. All day Kojirou didn't see her. When Kojirou asked Master Shiba if he saw her, he simply said she wasn't feeling well.

Kojirou immediately became worried and when class ended. Kojirou immediately decided to pay a visit to Musashi. He didn't care if he would find out about Musashi's old beau. He felt rejuvenated after a restful sleep and was ready to listen. Instead of using the key that Musashi's had given him, he decided to be a gentleman for once and knock. There was no response from Musashi, which got Kojirou worried.

Decided that maybe she couldn't hear him he knocked harder. Still he got no response. God I never knew Jessie was such a sound sleeper.

"Musashi!" called Kojirou as he pounded on the door. "Jessie!" Still he got no response. Thinking it would be better to let her sleep Kojirou left. He decided to go ahead with his plan of revenge thinking it may cheer Musashi up. It wasn't about teaching Kasumi and Haruka lesson not to pick on Team Rocket members but for Musashi. He wanted to tell her that he really cared for her. He wanted to tell her that he really, really cared for her.

He found the shortest route to Tamamushi Sitei. Thinking they would have the best things he dragged himself into the city. Even though as he walked into the city bad feelings ran though his body. This was where Kasumi and Haruka fooled him and Jessie. Kojirou knew the only reason why he came here was it had the best department stores on this side of the tunnel. After all Celadon was Kanto's major city in the outside world, if the people here wanted the under ground world to be just like the outside world Tamamushi would the major city here.

Kojirou sighed as he dragged his tired body through the streets. Why had he been so stupid to pick such a big city? He forgot he didn't know where anything was in this place. Kojirou forced himself down the city's street to be rewarded by the store that he was looking for. Kojirou looked up and smiled, "Tooru's Camera Shop Home of the World's best Camera and Video Cam". Kojirou had already opened his bank accountant to kind a lot of money already stored in for him. He found out from the accountant there that when you join Thunderbolt there give you a certain amount of beginning cash. Later as when you advance to the military ranks where you actually fight, you pay Thunderbolt back with the number of victories you win.

Kojirou pushed open to doorway to hear a bunch of girlish giggles. Thinking they had remembered what happened a few weeks ago Kojirou growled before yelling. "Stop laughing at me!" The store which stone quiet as all heads turned to him.

"Who does he think he is trying to compare himself with the savior?" whispered one of the girls to her friend each to other.

"Do know but wasn't he one of the guys that Gen. Kasumi and Gen. Haruka played a joke on a couple of weeks ago?" asked the girl.

"Yeah!" said the girl. Laughter rang through the store as Kojirou which beet red. He had made a complete fool of himself. He looked up trying to ignore the laughter to see that in on of the TV cameras was what the girls were looking at.

On the screen was an animated show of a young boy, girl, and another boy. Upon the boy's chest was the shape of a thunderbolt imprinted on his shirt. The title screen flashed up with the words "The Savior". There the young boy with the thunderbolt on his shirt was smiling and one of his hands held the victory symbol. The other two were by his side. In the background the legendary birds were flying upon them with the dogs near their side. A pink Pokemon James knew as Mew and the time travel Pokemon Celebi was hovering over the young boy's head. To James's surprise upon the boy's shoulder was a yellow rodent. "Pikachu," whispered James with a sound of hatred.

"I guess you found fancy in my anime, James," said a young man's voice. Kojirou turned around to come face to face with a man.

"Who are you?" asked Kojirou started.

"My name is Tooru, and I own this shop," said the man.

Kojirou studied the man and grinned. "You're that camera boy that hung around with the twerps for a while."

"I see you remember me James. It is me Todd, and I remember you very well for nearly killing us and Articuno," said Tooru. "So you like my cartoon don't you?"

 Kojirou chuckled at the remembrance. It had been such a long time since the Articuno incident in Johto. Oh, what good times it was back then? "Yes, its very interesting yet the characters are awfully familiar," said Kojirou uneasily.

"They should be. Come on let me show you," said Tooru. He glided Kojirou to the back of the store room just to have Kojirou realize he forgot the reason he was here.

"Tooru, I need camera," said Kojirou. Tooru nodded.

"I guess that could be a good reason why you're here," said Tooru. He led Kojirou to the camera section, and Kojirou picked a fairly good priced digital camera. Tooru rang it up and handed it back to Kojirou who followed Tooru to the back room.

There to James's amazement was a grand studio where camera and video cams were littered everywhere. Pictures of the saviors were pasted on the walls. "What is this place?" asked Kojirou.

"The nervous center of the show, "The Savior," said Tooru. "Come." Tooru led Kojirou to a back room held the word private. Thinking there was something grand in there. Kojirou grew very anxious as Tooru finished the password. The door opened. There to Kojirou's disappointment was a young man sitting on a stool with his head looking down. He was busy drawing a stretch. Tooru walked over the man and whispered something in his ear. The man immediately dropped his pencil and looked up.

"Ah, James! Misty and Brock told me you and Jessie were here. Glad you came and visit us," said the man.

"The Professor's aid," said James surprised.

The man sweat dropped before replying. "Yeah, it's me Kenji. You know Tracey," said the man.

"Yeah, Tracey," said James. James turned to Todd with a confused look on his face.

"You must be wondering why I bought you here," said Todd. James nodded then quickly sighed.

"Well, you know the show, "The Savior"?"

"Yeah."

"You know how you said the characters looked familiar?"

"Yeah."

"Well, that's because the show the based on our past."

"What!" said James taken back. He never excepted that anyone would be interested enough to make a show out of his life.

"Well most of it is any ways. Tracey and I produced it. Tracey draws the pictures, and I shoot them. When Misty and Brock saved us and allowed us to join Thunderbolt, we were so grateful that we decided to produce a show evolving their childhood. Haruka didn't want a part in it, so it was just a story evolving around a young boy's dreams of being the best Pokemon Master. The show started two years ago. Misty thought the show would be a good idea. Letting everyone remember what the past was like and when the war is over that Pokemon are still good. The show is based on Ash's childhood, so you and Jessie are part of it. We changed the characters' names too. Ash became Ashura. Misty became Mystic. Brock was known as Buff. We gave Jessie the name Jessica and you Jim. I wanted you to see what we did since after all it is part of your childhood…"

Todd went on and on about the show as James yawned. This was so boring. The two had y rated their lives. Tracey had disgraced Team Rocket and made it Team Socket. "James go to Jessie." A small voice was sent though his head causing James to look around.

"What?" asked Todd very disturbed at James's actions.

"I… I got to go," said James quickly. Todd looked up at the clock and grasped at the time.

"That's true. I didn't know it was that late." The time was 10 at night already. James quickly thanked Todd and Tracey for their lecture and left with his camera. He dropped it off at his apartment before deciding to go pay a visit to Jessie. Kojirou had this nagging feeling in the bottom of his stomach as he reached Musashi's room. It was as if an outside force was pushing him forward. The same force that he had experienced last night. Then it hit him hard. How did I get home last night?

Then it all came back. He was drunk, and a young man stopped him. Pulled the beer bottle from Kojirou's hands and gave him a breath mint which he mistaken for a sleeping pill. Kojirou didn't get the young man's name and when he questioned the others about seeing a mysterious young man coming in nobody saw him. Kojirou somehow knew he had seen the man before somewhere, but where he just didn't know. Kojirou reached Musashi's room and knocked on the door. Just like this morning there was no reply. "Jessie," called Kojirou. There was no answer. Deciding to break into her room since he had left her in peace this morning Kojirou took out her room key. The moment the door opened Kojirou felt a haunting feeling come to his body. Goose bumps rose from his hand as Kojirou walked into Musashi's bedroom.

"Jessie!" called Kojirou. "Where are you? I know you can't be asleep right now. Where are you?" Kojirou walked past the kitchen to find no dishes in the sink. Finding it weird since Jessie never washes the dishes till the next day. "Jess!" Shouted Kojirou. When Kojirou walked past the kitchen, a weird smell came to his nose. It was a smell that just didn't ring a bell, but because it just didn't smell right Kojirou quickly covered his nose and mouth. Near reaching the bedroom a burning sensation reached his body. He felt as if he was on fire. Getting worried and thoughts ran through his mind Kojirou ran to the bedroom. There the door was closed. When Kojirou tired to push, it open. The door just wouldn't bulge.

"Jessie open up," shouted Kojirou even though his voice was muffled. There was no response. Getting worried Kojirou found a stick lying near the door. Thinking it was extremely weird for Jessie to have Kojirou picked it up. Using his whole body strength, he busted into the bedroom door. The door flew open to reveal a horrid sight in front of Kojirou.

All James could do was scream. The stick released from James's hands and came crashing down to the floor.

A/N: Mhhwaaa? I'm evil aren't I? I felt like doing another cliffhanger okay. This idea came to me as I was writing it. So I still didn't tell what James's plan is. All you know now is it has to do with a camera. Hopefully no more weird ideas will come to my head, or I'll never end that section. It was only suppose to be a three-chapter counting prologue beginning now its six-chapter counting prologue beginning and still counting. Guess this story going to be longer than I predicted.
