Chapter 9: Team Rocket Rises​

Over at Team Chaos HQ, Skyler arrives after his ice cold defeat from Chase. He wanted to return to HQanother person to make a member of Team Chaos, but instead, he came back to HQ with a cold.
Skyler: “Ah-choo! I’m back. Shade? Jason? Gwen?” The HQ is practically quiet. Soon, Jason appears.
Jason: “Skyler, I can’t believe you lost like that.”
Skyler: “Uh… Jason, where’s Gwen and Shade?”
Jason: “They out on their own missions. Gwen has gone after the kids you lost to.”
Skyler: “I need to rest. Since you’re the genius of the group, you can take over while I recover.” Skyler heads to his room.
Jason (quietly): “Oh, I’ll change leadership of Team Chaos alright, but first, I need to make sure you wake up as the Skyler we need, not the Skyler we have.” Jason releases his Hypno and they follow Skyler.
Back in the City of Salem, Chase heads to his Pokemon League. The Rocket Boss has asked him and Vik to come over and show the secretes of the cartridge ball. Chase was quite unsure about this but he headed on over by Flying on his Fearow. Vik soon catches up with him on his Swellow.
Vik: “Hey Chase. I suppose you got the email too.” Vik was wearing his Team Rocket outfit. The Rocket Boss gave Vik instant membership when he saw how good a player he was.
Chase: “Nice outfit. I suppose you’ll be the one giving the Boss a cartridge ball?”
Vik: “What? It’s not like he’ll abuse the power of these things.”
Chase: “I know the Boss is really a good guy, but I think that spreading our power to other people could attract too much attention from Team Chaos.”
Vik: “C’mon. The Boss has enough members and an endless supply of powerful pokemon to kick Team Chaos’s butt. Get ready to land.” Vik and Chase land in front of the card shop where Pokemon League took place. They land in front of the card shop.
Chase: “Fearow Return.”
Vik: “Jo return.” Fearow and Vik’s Swellow nicknamed Jo disappear into the cartridge balls. The store was practically empty since it was an hour before league started. The Rocket Boss was waiting at a table. He dressed up just like a Rocket Grunt from the gameboy games. He had quite a few gamecube and Gameboy stuff on him as well.
Boss: “Vik, Chase, glad you both could make it.”
Vik: “How’s it going Brad?”
Brad: “I told you, in public, call me the Rocket Boss.”
Vik: “Whatever. Anyway, Chase was the first to get one of these cartridge balls.” He hands his cartridge ball over to Brad. Chase gets his out as well. Then a girl also dressed in a Rocket outfit arrives.
Chase: “Hey Brad, what’s Amy doing here?”
Brad: “She wanted to see the cartridge balls as well.”
Amy: “Hey boys.”
Brad, Chase, and Vik: “Hey Amy.”
Amy: “So Brad, will we be using these cartridge balls in future Gameboy tournament?”
Brad: “Yeah. With these devices I could run the best Pokemon Tournaments around.”
Chase: “That’s what I’m afraid of.”
Vik: “What? He’s just going to run tournaments with these things.”
Chase: “But if you do, there’s no doubt Team Chaos will come after you guys as well.”
Brad: “Hey, we’re Team Rocket. We’ll be able to stop them. So, when do Amy and I get our cartridge balls?”
Vik: “Right. Jirachi, I choose you.” Jirachi appears. Brad is impressed while Amy just becomes a bit ecstatic.
Amy: “Oh, it’s much cuter in real life than it is on the Gamecube.”
Vik: “Hey Jirachi, I wish for two cartridge balls. One for my friend Brad, and another for Amy.” Jirachi makes new cartridge balls appear. Now Brad and Amy get their Emerald games and insert them into the slot in the cartridge ball. Then, Gwen shows up at the league.
Gwen: “It’s amazing what a real live Jirachi can do for you.” The whole group sees Gwen and are amazed that she knows about the real live pokemon. Gwen wore a suit wired with gadgets similar to Skyler’s but it had a more of a feminine style.
Chase: “That suit. You’re a member of Team Chaos, aren’t you?”
Amy: “That’s a Team Chaos outfit? They barely got style.”
Chase: “You better leave or I’ll-“
Gwen: “Relax Chase. I’m here to talk. Look, I’ll hand my cartridge ball over to this Team Rocket bozo.” She hands over her cartridge ball over to Brad, who is a bit mad for the bozo comment.
Vik: “What does Team Chaos want?”
Gwen: “Funny, I didn’t expect Chase to be a member of Team Rocket.”
Chase: “I’m not really a member of Team Rocket. Didn’t you notice that I’m not wearing the outfit?”
Gwen: “Whatever. Anyway, my name is Gwen. I’m a Team Chaos Admin. You are very rude Chase. Stealing our cartridge balls.”
Chase: “What do you mean steal?”
Gwen: “You should know that when Jirachi grants wishes, half the time, it teleports the item from somewhere else. Team Chaos are the only people on Earth who have those special pokeballs. You used your Jirachi to teleport them out of our secrete base and give them to your friends. That is just unacceptable”
Vik: “Well I guess that’s too bad cuz we’re gonna use these cartridge balls to take Team Chaos down.”
Gwen: “How can you? Four Team Rocket wannabes against our army, an army that is anxious to battle you. Alakazam, Gardevior, Teleport!” Gwen’s two pokemon appear out of nowhere.
Chase: “It’s a trap!”
Gwen: “Of course it was. Take us to the battle arena, Alakazam and Gardevoir.” The next thing anyone knows, they are inside a building with a few Team Chaos members ready to battle.
Brad: “You tricked us. You had your pokemon already released.”
Gwen: “I guess Team Rocket isn’t as dumb as they are in the cartoon show.”
Chase: “Forget about her, Brad. If it’s a battle they want, it’s a battle they’ll get. Go Breloom!”
Amy: “I am so sick of that girl. I choose Persian.”
Vik: “Jo, Time to Battle.”
Brad: “Slacking, let’s dominate these losers!” Breloom, Persian, Slacking, and Swellow all appear.
Gwen: “Gardevoir, time to battle! Team Chaos Grunts, sent out your pokemon!” Gardevoir readies for battle. It’s battle partners are Flygon, Zangoose and the evolution of Gligar, Gliscor.
Brad: “I’ll start off this 4-on-4 battle. Slacking, use Hyper Beam on Gardevoir!”
Gwen: “Dodge using Teleport!” Gardevoir dodges.
Brad: “How is that possible? Teleport is not a defensive attack in the game.”
Chase: “When battling in our world, attacks can be used differently, Brad.”
Gwen: “That’s right, Team Chaos teaches their pokemon these attacks because for the real world effects.”
Vik: “My turn. Jo, use Sky Attack!”
TC Grunt: “Gliscor, Stop Swellow with Thunder Fang.” Gliscor manages to hit it’s target, Jo falls to the ground.
Vik: “Get back in the air, Jo.”
Gwen: “Not so fast, Gardevoir, Charge Beam!” Gardevoir fires an attack that zaps the life out of Jo.
Brad: “You teach your pokemon attacks from the Diamond and Pearl games too?”
Chase: “Uh, serious déjà vu. It’s like an instant replay of when I first got my cartridge ball.”
Amy: “Persian, use Fake Out on Zangoose.” Persian manages to hit Zangoose.
Chase: “Quick Breloom, use Spore to put them all to sleep!”
TC Grunt: “Not so fast. Flygon, quick. Trap Breloom with Sand Tomb.” Breloom gets stuck in quick sand that Flygon made appear out of nowhere.
Chase: “Don’t worry about it Breloom. Just use Spore anyway!” Breloom manages to put only Flygon to sleep.
Vik: “Jo, while it’s asleep, Try another Sky Attack on Flygon.”
Amy: “Team up with Jo, Persian. Faint Attack.”
Gwen: “Gardevoir, Magical Leaf on Persian!”
TC Grunt: “Zangoose, use Crush Claw on Swellow.”
Brad: “Slacking, another Hyper Beam!”
Chase: “Focus Punch Breloom!”
TC Grunt: “Gliscor, Dark Pulse!” All these attacks hit in the same spot, creating explosive results. When the dust clears Gliscor and Slacking were the only two still ready to battle as all the other pokemon have been KO’d from all those attacks hitting at once. Their trainers call them back into their cartridge balls.
TC Grunt: “Gliscor, while Slacking’s down, use a Fire Fang!” Slacking is hit.
Chase: “This isn’t good. Slacking’s a goner.”
Brad: “Slacking come one. Use another Hyper Beam.”
TC Grunt: “Thunder Fang again, Gliscor.” This time, Slacking flinches from the attack. The Hyper Beam fails.
Amy: “We’re in trouble.”
Gwen: “This is game over. Gliscor, Ice Fang!” Slacking is Ko’d from taking three elemental fangs in a row. Brad forces Slacking back into it’s cartridge ball.
Gwen: “Let this be a lesson to you all. Don’t mess with Team Chaos. Alakazam, Teleport them back to that card shop.” Chase, Amy, Brad, and Vik find themselves back at the Pokemon League.
Brad: “We’ll get them next time.”
Vik: “I can’t believe it. They’re ahead of us since they have Diamond and Pearl Pokemon and attacks.”
Chase: “Now you know why I didn’t want you to have the cartridge ball in the first place, Brad. They’ll just keep attacking until we give up.”
Brad: “Don’t worry about it. I’ll give the other Rockets cartridge balls and we’ll come back regrouped and even stronger.” Chase settles down a bit. He decides to let Brad and Amy of Team Rocket keep the cartridge balls. Back at Team Chaos HQ, Jason meets up with Gwen.
Jason: “Congratulations on winning the battle, but how come you didn’t take their cartridge balls.”
Gwen: “Whoopsie, Forgot about that. I’ll just have to head back and teach them another lesson.” Jason growls with anger.
Jason: “Gwen I swear, you’re more trouble than you’re worth. Just make sure to take their cartridge balls next time.” He leaves her alone.
Gwen (quietly): “I’ll be sure that Chase learns alright.” Meanwhile, Pokemon League was about to start at the card shop Chase, Brad, Amy, and Vik were.
Brad: “Since those Team Chaos freaks are using Diamond and Pearl attacks, I say we log onto Serebii and find out what we’re up against.”
Chase: “Good idea. Maybe we’ll find ways to teach our pokemon those new attacks.”
Vik: “Ok, so, I guess we’re a real Team now.”
Chase: “Not quite. Not all of us are here. You forget, there are probably other trainers out there, like Lucas.”
Vik: “Dude, you just gave him a pokeball with a Nidoran inside it.”
Chase: “Whatever. I just want this chaotic nightmare to end.”
Amy: “Chase, just know this, we’re willing to help you uot.”
Brad: “Count me out. This is where I go solo.” He sends out his Skarmory, and then flies away on it.
Amy: “Wait boss. We need you help!”
Vik: “He’s going to give the other Rockets cartridge balls, isn’t he?”
Amy: “Knowing him, I’d say yes. That, and find a way to obtain attacks from the Diamond and Pearl games. I better go too.” Amy sends out a Pidgeot and follows Brad. Vik and Chase just watch from below, wondering if Team Rocket really wanted to fight Team Chaos.

Chapter 10: Cybernetic chaos​

The weekend was over. Chase was back in school. After all the adventures he had in the past week, he wanted to get back in the battle field, defeating Team Chaos again. Little did he know that Team Chaos was back on track. And they were going to strike via the internet. Gwen takes PorygonZ to a Computer lab somewhere in the city.
Gwen: “Okay PorygonZ, we need to make sure Chase gets the wake up call of a life time. If Skyler wants him to play ‘Hero’ then this kid needs to be on his toes. Go into the internet and make sure that not just him, but this whole city knows what we’re capable of.” PorygonZ renders itself into data and digitizes itself on a nearby computer. Then it begins traveling on the internet. Meanwhile, Chase was having lunch at school.
Aaron: “Can you believe this guy? Pokemon obsesser.”
Chase: “Are you jealous of my heroism?”
Aaron: “What do you mean? You skipped school last Friday to end up being on the News.”
Chase: “How was I supposed to know a helicopter was taping me rescuing Lucas?”
Aaron: “I know you hate publicity, but you have to admit, it was something seeing you jump off that Rayquaza, save the kid, and land on an Articuno.”
Chase: “But this may attract some unwanted attention.”
Aaron: “From who?”
Chase: “The government, the authorities, and Team Chaos.”
Aaron: “Don’t worry about it. Nothing can go wrong.” They finish they’re lunch and then head on up to the library. Everyone was complaining about the internet, which was nothing new to Aaron and Chase. They each sign on to a computer. When they try to sign onto the internet, something weird happens. The schools website has a message posted that read:

Ha ha ha. Team Chaos strikes again.

Aaron: “Hey, Chase, isn’t that the morons who attacked last week?” Chase checks some other websites, but every website had the same message. All the websites were not working right. Chase logs onto a different website and sees an icon that looks like PorygonZ manipulating the website.
Chase: “So that’s it. PorygonZ.”
Aaron: “What?” A crowd of students gather around Chase’s computer to see what he meant. PorygonZ posts the message and then logs out of the website.
Aaron: “You gotta stop that thing, Chase.”
Chase: “I can try, but I’m snot sure if PorygonZ is up for a battle.” Chase logs onto a different website that hasn’t been hacked yet. He knew that PorygonZ would eventually try to hack this one. He turns on his gameboy and puts his Porygon2 into his party. When his game is ready, he puts his FireRed game into his cartridge ball.
Chase: “It’s virus deletion time. Porygon2, you’re on.” Porygon2 materializes.
Chase: “Digitize yourself into this website Porygon2. While in there, wait for PorygonZ and then see if you can fix the websites it hacked.” Porygon2 starts glowing, and then digitizes itself into the computer, and then the website.
Aaron: “Think this’ll work Chase?”
Gwen: “It won’t.” The crowd turns around and Gwen is standing at the library’s entrance with her Gardevoir.
Chase: “So I take it, you sent PorygonZ into the internet?”
Gwen: “You catch on fast, Chase, but I won’t let you succeed. PorygonZ, attack.” Gwen was using a transmitter device that enabled her to communicate with PorygonZ.
Chase: “This is so unfair, I can’t communicate with my Porygon2.”
Gwen: “Who said I was having it attack your Porygon2?” PorygonZ hacks the school’s server. The printer in the library starts going haywire. The computers in the cafeteria start charging the wrong amount of lunch money toward the students. Students grades are even hacked by PorygonZ. All Chase can do is watch and wait.
Chase: “Fight fair, Gwen.”
Gwen: “Life’s never fair. I know that quite well. I was forced to watch in horror as Skyler suffered.” She shudders and looks down.
Chase: “Suffered from what?”
Gwen: “I’ve said too much. Now’s not the time.”
Chase: “Spill the beans. Tell me, what are you hiding?” Then, Gwen’s transmitter beeps.
Chase: “I hope Porygon2 is doing ok.”
Gwen: “Digitize yourself and that Porygon2 out of there.” PorygonZ and Porygon2 come out of a scanner. They are locked in battle.
Chase: “Psychic attack, Porygon2.” Porygon2 attack’s but PorygonZ is able to withstand it.
Gwen: “PorygonZ, Signal Beam!”
Librarian: “No battling indoors!” The two Porygons stop attacking.
Gwen: “Fine, PorygonZ, back inside the internet.”
Chase: “After it, Porygon2!” The two Porygons digitize back into cyberspace.”
Gwen: “Hand over your cartridge ball, and PorygonZ and I will leave quietly.”
Chase: “Forget it. By the way, can that microphone on your transmitter pick up my commands?”
Gwen: “I know what you’re up to. Gardevoir, let’s get out of here.” They Teleport out of the library. The server continues to go haywire. The battle in the internet has efferts all over the world. More than half the websites have been hacked by PorygonZ.
Chase: “What will I do now? I can’t communicate with Porygon2.”
Aaron: “We need to find that girl. She couldn’t have gotten far.” Chase’s cell phone begins ringing.
Mrs. Beltran: “Chase, what’s going on? The internet shows some ridiculous message and all the computers here at Lucas’s school are going crazy.”
Chase: “I know, the same thing is happening here at my high school. By the way, have you seen anyone wearing a similar outfit to what Skyler was wearing.”
Mrs. Beltran: “I see her. She’s here. Get here now.” Chase hangs up.
Chase: “Man, that was a lucky break. I need to get out of here, and stop Gwen.” Chase heads outside and releases his Fearow from his FireRed game. He Flies over to Lucas’s elementary school. He saw Gwen battling Lucas.
Chase: “Fearow, Fly attack on that Gardevoir.” Fearow dives down at Gardevoir and strikes. Chase jumps off of Fearow as the attack hits.
Gwen: “Hey, no fair sneaking up on your opponents.”
Lucas: “I told you he’d be here. Hey Chase!”
Chase: “Not now Lucas, Fearow return.” Fearow goes back into the cartridge ball.
Gwen: “Are you here to play ‘hero’ again?”
Chase: “What happened to my Porygon2?”
Gwen: “It’s battling with my PorygonZ at this very moment in cyberspace. What it doesn’t know is that battling in there will just elp us to hack and damage the websites.”
Chase (shouting) : Porygon2! If you can hear me, get out of there!” Porygon2 picks up the message and digitizes back at the library.
Gwen: “Good thinking, but who’s going to stop my PorygonZ?”
Chase: “I’m not too worried, Manetric, you’re on.” Manetric emerges form the cartridge ball. Lucas approaches Chase.
Lucas: “Hey Chase.”
Chase: “Hold on Lucas. Manetric, Thunder Wave on her transmitter.” A small electric shock short circuits Gwen’s transmitter. PorygonZ is cut off. Unsure of what to do, it materializes in the school and levitates toward Gwen.
Gwen: “Payback time. PorygonZ, Signal Beam! Gardevoir, Charge Beam.” The two beams hit Manetric.
Lucas: “Hey, two against one? Spiny, get in there and use Poison Sting.” Spiny joins the battle and attacks Gardevoir. Gardevoir starts to show signs of poisoning.
Gwen: “You little brat. Gardevoir, use Psychic on that pesky Nidoran.” Gardevoir blasts Spiny with a large concentration of energy.
Chase: “Great, two against one again.. Manetric, Thunder with everything you got.” Manetric zaps both Gardevoir and PorygonZ, but they both live through the attack.
Gwen: “Well it was fun. PorygonZ, Hyper Beam.” The attack manages to KO Manetric. Chase has lost the battle.
Gwen: “I’ll be taking your cartridge ball now.” Lucas runs up to Gwen
Lucas: “No you won’t.” Gwen stops when she sees Lucas.
Gwen: “Cute kid. I see you are a hero, in that case… Gardevoir, Teleport us back to HQ.” Gardevoir hesitates for a moment, then Teleports Gwen, PorygonZ, and itself away.
Chase: “What was that all about?”
Mrs. Beltran: “Well if you ask me, she did enough damage. Anything linked to a server or the internet has gone out of control.”
Lucas: “Hey Chase, remember when you said you owe me big?”
Chase: “Oh no. What do you need?” Chase’s cell phone starts to ring again.
Aaron: “Get back to school, Lunch is over. And your Porygon2 is waiting for you.” Chase hands up and releases his Fearow again.
Chase: “I’ll have to get back to you on that, Lucas.” He flies off on his Fearow. When he arrives at his school’s library, he sees that the librarian and the school administrators were using Porgon2 to reset the server.
Mr. Johnson: “Aw, Chase. I’m glad you got rid of the girl who did this, but for now, I’ll need your pokeman to help correct the system.”
Chase: “Fine, call me back when you’re finished with it. Porygon2, keep up the good work.” Back at Team Chaos HQ, Shade confronts Gwen.
Shade: “Why did you back down?”
Gwen: “What do you mean?”
Shade: “You took one look at that little kid and just completely hesitated. Just pathetic.”
Gwen: “Oh, and I suppose you could do a better job?”
Shade: “I don’t care as long as we stop the kid from becoming a bigger threat than he already is. We already have four cartridge balls missing.”
Jason: “Make that 7 missing. I’m guessing that those Team Rocket bozos wanted more and wished the away from here. Shade, since Master Skyler is still sick, you’ll have to deal with Chase.”
Shade: “I promise you, Chase will wish he was never born. I won’t let anyone stand in my way. It’s out of the shadows and into the darkness for him and his friends.”

Chapter 11: Haunting Memories​

At Team Chaos HQ, Shade and Jason work on a plan together. They decide to use one of the legendary pokemon from Diamond and Pearl for their next attack on Chase.
Shade: “Should we test this pokemon’s abilities?”
Jason: “Let’s test it on Master Skyler.”
Shade: “But why?”
Jason: “I promise, I won’t do much harm to him, I just want to see a small fraction of this pokemon’s power.” They head on over to where Skyler was resting. He was fast asleep, just what Jason needed for his demonstration. He opens up a pokeball and Darkrai emerges.
Shade: “Darkrai, Dark Void attack on Skyler.” The room grows dark. Skyler shivers in his bed and then starts to mumble something. He starts to have a nightmare.
Skyler: “Where am I? Who are these people?” Inside Skyler’s nightmare, he’s in a building. There’s a doctor.
Doctor: “My, you’ve suffered quite a bit there.”
Skyler: “Who are you? What happened?”
Doctor: “Don’t worry. Soon you’ll be just fine.” Skyler discovers that his head is wired to some kind of machine.
Skyler: “No! Don’t!” Skyler starts screaming in his sleep, not realizing that it’s just a nightmare. Jason knows what he's screaming about and starts to become anxious.
Shade: “Wow. So, that’s how we’ll claw our way into Chase’s mind. Darkrai, wake him up.” Darkrai stops the nightmare and Skyler immediately wakes up. He was breathing heavily as he looked around. Shade quickly recalls Darkrai back into a pokeball.
Skyler: “What happened?”
Shade: “I hope you’re ok, Master Skyler, because we need you to put the next phase of our plan into action.” Skyler is confused for a moment, not sure what Shade is talking about. He was still thinking about the realistic nightmare. Then he looks at Jason.
Skyler: “You! You did this to me Jason, didn’t you?”
Shade: “What’s going on here? Skyler, what did you see in that nightmare?”
Jason: “Master, you’re still tired. You need to rest.” Jason inserts his LeafGreen game into his cartridge ball.
Skyler: “I need answers. What are you hiding from me Jason? Who did I see in that nightmare? I know you know!” Jason releases his Hypno again.
Shade: “What are you doing Jason?”
Jason: “You both know too much, Hypno, hypnosis.” Hypno manages to put both Skyler and Shade to sleep.
Jason: “Now use Dream Eater to erase their memories of what just happened.” Hypno does that. Shade and Skyler would not remember Skyler’s nightmare or his screaming.

The next night, Chase was heading into bed a bit late since he left his homework for the last minute. Since Team Chaos hasn’t attacked all day, he didn’t suspect anything. Shade was hiding in the back yard, waiting for him to fall asleep. He has only taken Darkrai as his attacking pokemon. Soon, his bedroom light was turned off.
Shade: “Perfect. Darkrai, action time!” Darkrai emerges from its ordinary pokeball. Then it phases through the walls of Chase's house and enters his room.
Shade (over transmitter): “Dark Void attack on Chase.” Darkrai enters Chase’s mind and begins to orchestrate a nightmare. Chase sees Lucas looking sad. He runs over to him.
Lucas: “You’re not fair Chase. How could you, destroying Spiny.”
Chase: “What, I didn’t do that.” AJ suddenly appears next to Lucas.
AJ: “Chase, you promised. And you’re still back at square one.”
Chase: “It’s not my fault. What happened two years ago is all in the past.”
AJ: “What happened will haunt you forever.” The accident replays in Chase’s nightmare, except it was a much more horrified version of it. Chase soon can’t take anymore.
Chase (screaming): “Stop it! It wasn’t my fault! Everything’s fine now! LEAVE ME ALONE!”
Shade (over transmitter): “That’s enough damage for now Darkrai, get out of there.” Darkrai stops the nightmare and leaves at once. Chas’s mother soon come in his room and wakes him up from his nightmare.
Mom: “Chase, why are you screaming in your sleep?” Chase wakes up realizing it was all just a dream.
Chase: “Nothing, I guess I’ve been fighting Team Chaos too often in the past week.”
Mom: “Well if they’re what’s giving you nightmares, then let the police handle them. Go back to sleep.” Chase manages to make it through the night without anymore nightmares, but he wouldn’t forget about it. Even at school the next morning he found it difficult to get through the day. Shade followed him everywhere. He and Darkrai made sure his nightmares would put an end to him.
Shade: “Use Dark Void again, Darkrai.” Even though Chase is wide awake, he starts seeing the nightmare again. Every time Darkrai used its Dark Hall attack Chase began to lose his mind. He lets out a scream in the middle of class when his friend Aaron snaps him out of it.
Aaron: “Chase, what’s going on? Why are you screaming?” Darkrai stops its attack and leaves before it’s noticed. Everyone in the classroom is staring at Chase.
Chase: “I’m sorry about that. I… just didn’t get enough sleep last night.” The rest of the school day went smoothly, until it was time to go home. That’s when Shade and Darkrai attacked Chase again. Aaron was standing next to him when he started to mumble something.
Chase: “Ah, get out of my head. It’s all in the past.”
AJ (in Chase’s mind): “Well the past can come back to haunt you.”
Chase (Shouting): “NO! I refuse to re-experience what happened!”
Aaron: “Chase, snap out of it.” Chase manages to get a grip on reality. He holds his head as if he has a headache.
Aaron: “What’s wrong? Why do you keep yelling at yourself?”
Chase: “That was the third time this has happened. I don’t know why but, I keep getting these horrified visions of the accident where AJ disappeared, and he keeps saying it’s my fault.”
Aaron: “What? You said that a car crashed through the building’s wall close to where AJ was having his card battle. How could that be your fault?”
Chase: “There’s no way. I mean, no one would expect something like that to happen during the Pokemon Regionals tournament.” Shade was quietly following them. They walk through the neighborhood until Aaron goes into his house. Chase decides to go home as well. He decides to take a shortcut through the fields near the woods. That’s when Shade and Darkrai struck again.
Shade (quietly): “That’s right, no one can hear you scream when you’re alone. Dark Void.” Darkrai once again has Chase under its spell. Chase lets out a scream of terror. Luckily for him, someone managed to hear him. Shade watches Chase’s pain in amusement. That’s when he gets jumped by another one of Chase’s friends.
Lucas: “Hey you big bully. Leave Chase alone.” Lucas jumps on Shade. Shade just throws him to the ground.
Shade: “You’re that pesky kid who keeps butting in.” Soon, Lucas’s friends catch up with him. Chase continues screaming in terror, not realizing what’s going on.
Lucas: “Zach, Katie, Chase needs our help.” Zach and Katie were Lucas’s friends who also like pokemon. When they found out that Lucas had a real live pokemon, they decided to help him fight Team Chaos.
Katie: “You help him.”
Zach: “We’ll take care of this bad guy.” Lucas runs over to Chase.
Shade: “Not so fast kids. Darkrai, Nightshade attack.” Darkrai stops Chase’s nightmare in order to attack the kids, but they were ready.
Lucas: “Spiny, I choose you.” Spiny emerges and takes the Nightshade attack. Chase finally snaps out of his nightmare and realizes what’s going on.
Chase: “Lucas? What’s going on?”
Lucas: “That bad guy was scaring you. We could hear you screaming from my school.” Chase looks over at Shade, who knows that now he must do things the hard way now.
Chase: “So, I suppose you’re a member of Team Chaos.”
Shade: “Call me Shade. I say, we’ve never had a threat come from a teen and his babyish friends.”
Lucas: “Baby? I’ll show you, Spiny use Iron-” Chase steps in front of Lucas.
Chase: “Get you and your friends out of here Lucas. This guy’s mine. Nidoking, you’re on!” Nidoking comes out of the cartridge ball and prepares for battle.
Shade: “A Nidoran and a Nidoking? Oh, please, don’t you have anything different?”
Chase: “At least I don’t hide in the shadows like a coward. How about I add more light to your life? Nidoking, Fire Blast.” Darkrai is hit, but Shade doesn’t worry about it.
Shade: “Use Dark Void on both Nidoking and Chase.”
Chase: “What?” Darkrai casts its spell. Both Nidoking and Chase start to scream in terror. Lucas and his two friends refuse to standby.
Lucas: “We got to help. Ready?” Katie and Zach get their pokeballs out.
Katie: “This guy’s nothing but a big bully. I choose Ponyta.”
Zach: “I’ll help too. Go Spearow.” Ponyta and Spearow ready for battle along with Spiny.
Lucas: “Spiny, see if you can get Nidoking to snap out of it.” Spiny rushes over to Nidoking and starts to tell it that none of the visions are real. Then Lucas runs over to Chase.
Lucas: “We’re going to help you Chase. We won’t let you lose again. So stop screaming.”
Katie: “Yeah, you’re giving us a headache.” Chase awakens.
Chase: “Nidoking, Megahorn with everything you got!” Nidoking also awakens and attacks. Darkrai still manages to stay in the battle. However, Chase has undergone a lot of mental stress and had a hard time concentrating on the battle. Shade could see this and was ready to strike.
Shade: “You’re tired. Why not quit now and spare yourself and these kids some misery.” Chase was breathing hard, tired from all his mental stress.
Chase: “No. I… won’t let you win. Nidoking, finish it off with another Megahorn.”
Shade: “Dark Void again.” Nidoking falls under the dark spell again and stops its attack and Chase is also affected.
Shade: “Now, use Dream Eater on both of them.” Darkrai casts another spell which silences Nidoking and Chase. They both fall to the ground, unconscious. Darkrai then absorbs their energy and recovers from all the attacks it has taken.
Shade: “Ha ha ha. I’ll just take back our cartridge ball now.” Just then, Ponyta fires a flame at Shade.
Katie: “Did you forget about us?”
Lucas: “We’re going to make you pay for what you did to my brother’s friend.”
Zach: “Get ready to battle.” Shade just laughs.
Shade: “The three of you against me and my Darkrai? You all must have a death wish, but I’ll be glad to grant it.”

Chapter 12: Alliance of children​

Shade found his mission quite amusing. Not only had he succeeded in bringing Chase down, but he also got the pleasure of putting a stop to Lucas.
Lucas: “I won’t let you get away with this. Spiny, Poison Sting.” Spiny launches its attack, but Darkrai dodges.
Shade: “You pesky kids will have to do better than that.”
Zach: “Oh yeah? Spearow, Tri attack.” The Tri attack hits Darkrai. Shade doesn’t worry about it since his three opponents were at low levels.
Katie: “It’s my turn now, Ponyta, Fire Spin.” Darkrai becomes trapped in the flames.
Shade: “Fire a Nighshade attack.” Darkrai does that and it affects Ponyta and Spiny.
Lucas: “Don’t give up, Thunderbolt, Spiny.”
Zach: “Tri attack again.” Darkrai couldn’t dodge since it was trapped in the Fire Spin.
Shade: “The three of you are starting to get on my nerve. Darkrai, use Dark Pulse on that Ponyta.”
Lucas: “You better dodge that.”
Katie: “Right. Uh… “
Zach: “Look out Katie.”
Katie: “Use Agility.” Ponyta manages to dodge it.
Zach: “Close call, sis.”
Lucas: “Thunderbolt again, Spiny.”
Shade: “Fight off the Fire Spin and Thunderbolt with Nightshade.” Darkrai unleashes a huge amount of energy with its Nightshade and cancels out the active attacks.
Shade: “Now use Dark Void.”
Zach: “We won’t fall for that trick. Sprearow, Peck attack.”
Katie: “Ponyta, Take Down.”
Lucas: “Horn Attack, Spiny.” The three pokemon charge at their opponent. Darkrai get hit from the three attacks then starts to use Dark Void.
Lucas: “Get out of there.”
Shade: “You kids will not escape. Now Darkrai, let them all know what true fear is.” Ponyta, Spearow, and Spiny start to get affected by Dark Void. Lucas runs over to Chase.
Lucas: “Wake up Chase. We need your help.”
Shade: “It’s no use kid. Soon you and your two friends will end up just like him.” Lucas starts to give up. Then Spiny lets out a scream that wakes up Nidoking.
Zach: “Look Katie, Nidoking’s getting up.” Nidoking gets back to its feet.
Shade: “I’m not afraid of you.” Nidoking fires a small Fire Blast at shade, leaving his suit a bit crispy.
Shade: “Fair enough. What am I saying? Darkrai, forget about the pipsqueak pokemon, and use Dark Void on this Nidoking again.” Darkrai stops it’s spell on the other pokemon and turns toward Nidoking.
Katie: “No you don’t. Ponyta, Take Down again.” Ponyta charges into Darkrai. Then Nidoking uses a Sludge Bomb attack on Darkrai.
Zach: “Attack, Spearow, Don’t let it use Dark Void anymore.” Spearow starts clawing and pecking Darkrai. Nidoking starts trying to wake up Chase, but he is still unconscious.
Shade: “Blast that bird away with Dark Pulse.” Spearow is hit and badly injured from taking the attack at such a close range.
Lucas: “Spiny, buy us more time.” Spiny fire a Thunderbolt, but it barely has an effect on Darkrai.
Shade: “Use Nightshade!” Darkrai fires its attack. Spiny lets out a few cries of pain.
Lucas: “Hang in there. You can do it, for Chase and for Nidoking!” Spiny lets out one more cry and then starts to glow. Katie and Zach are a bit startled. Spiny soon starts to change form.
Lucas: “What’s happening?” Lucas, Zach, and Katie are mystified. Shade becomes a bit more anxious.
Shade: “Hurry and use Nightshade.”
Zach: “Get in there Spearow.” Spearow absorbs the attack since it has no effect on it. Soon, Spiny stops glowing, as it has finished its evolution.
Lucas: “Spiny got… bigger. He looks more like Nidoking now.”
Shade: “Shoot. That pesky Nidoran has evolved into a Nidorino. Darkrai, use Dark Void.”
Lucas: “Spiny, use Horn Attack now.” Spiny jabs Darkrai with its horn. Darkrai loses its concentration and can’t use it’s Dark Void attack. Nidoking Joins in with its Megahorn.
Zach: “Alright, now we’ll win. Spearow, Steel Wing.” Spearow starts slicing Darkrai with it’s wings.
Shade: “Dark Pulse again.” Spearow gets KO’d by the attack.
Zach: “Oh no, Spearow.”
Katie: “Use Fire Spin again, Ponyta.” Darkrai is once again trapped in flames.
Shade: “I can’t believe that I’m actually losing. This is what I get for bringing just Darrai as my battling pokemon.”
Zach: “Check out the bully now. He’s freaking out.”
Lucas: “Now Spiny, use Thunderbolt.” Spiny manages to zap Darkrai with a powerful bolt this time. Meanwhile, Nidoking was trying to wake up its trainer. When rubbing and gently hitting Chase didn’t work it decided to use Sludge Bomb and did mouth to Mouth with Chase, the poison type pokmeon way. When the Sludge entered Chase's mouth, he immediatly woke up and started coughing up the sludge.
Chase: “Ew! That was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever tasted in my life.” Chase finishes spitting out the sludge and then gags for a second.
Shade: “What? I thought I had you unconscious.”
Chase: “You’re still here?” He quickly analyzes the situation.
Shade: “Go back to sleep. Darkrai, use Dark Void.” Darkrai has a hard time using its Dark Hall since it was still trapped in the Fire Spin.
Chase: “Not this time. Nidoking, Megahorn!”
Lucas: “Spiny, Horn Attack.” Chase barely recognizes the Nidorino joining in the assault. Darkrai finally faints from att the attacks. Shade calls it back into a pokeball.
Shade: “Don’t think that this is over. We’ll be back.” Shade throws a bomb into the ground, which makes a smoke screen appear out of nowhere. When all the smoke clears, Shade was nowhere to be seen. Chase was concerned about what had just happened. Lucas, Zach, and Katie started celebrating their victory.
Zach: “Oh yeah. We beat the bad guy.” Spearow hops onto his shoulder and lets out a few cries of happiness. That’s when Chase realizes that there were more pokemon out than he remembered.
Lucas: “Chase, are you ok?” Spiny, comes up to its trainer and also celebrates with a few cries of happiness.
Chase: “I’m confused. When did Spiny evolve and how did your two friends get pokeballs when I’ve never even met them?”
Lucas: “Spiny evolved in the middle of the battle when we were trying to save you. My friends Katie and Zach were also trying to help."
Zach: “Our cousin is in that Team Rocket group. He was nice enough to give us our favorite pokemon.”
Chase: “Us?” Katie and Zach strike a cute brother and sister pose.
Katie and Zach: “We’re twins.”
Lucas: “They’re both in my class and their cousin is an awesome member fo Team Rocket. He has all the great pokemon cards."
Chase: “Hey uh, Zach, Katie. What’s you cousin’s name?”
Zach: “Jimmy.”
Chase: “Oh, him. I see. Well then, thanks for all your help. I think we should all go home. Nidoking return.” Chase’s Nidoking goes back into his Emerald game. Zach and Katie ride home on the Ponyta, while Chase takes Lucas home on his Arcanine.
Chase: “You know Lucas, now that you and your friends each have a pokemon, Team Chaos may come after all of you.”
Lucas: “Don’t worry. We can take care of ourselves. After all, we kicked that bad guy’s butt.” Chase smiles.
Chase: “I’d never though that I’d be saved by a few nine-year-olds. That’s the kind of adventure you can get only with Pokemon.” Chase drops off Lucas at his house and then heads home. The nightmare may have been over, but the danger was still out there.

The story is very good. Excellent, in fact. However, the entire thing is missing an incredible amount of detail. What does Chase look like? What's he wearing? What about the other characters? How do the Pokemon move? What do their attacks look like? How do they use them? These are questions that always haunt me while I'm writing (check my story for reference). Think about the environment. How can you use a dark forest to your advantage? The aerial battle, could you use mountains to enhance the battle? Trees? Details are what make a good story into a great read!
 
Wow, good points. It'll take forever for me to go and edit each chapter one by one. I did have a small description of Chase in chapter one and there is also a small description of Skyler in there as well. I haven't really done much for other characters. I just write out the story and let the reader picture it in his/her own view.

As for the attacks and how the pokemon are animated, just imagine it. If you've played Pokemon XD, then you'd get a pretty good idea on how the battles look. As for all the new pokemon I use from Diamond and Pearl and their new attacks, I really don't know how to describe them. That's why I've linked them to their Serebii Pokedex page. New attacks are still somewhat of a mystery to me, but that's the fun in using them. I get to manipulate the battle but at the same time, keep it as realistic as possible.

I like the way you've been doing it because when I re-read it I have the same things going through my head but different visualizations. You could use a tad of a bit more detail but dont go to into it and get carried away. I like the story more then the details. I like the way you've been doing it because I can picture it the way I think it is or how I think it happened.

I enjoy reading everyone's feedback. It gives me more ideas for how to write my story. I was originally waiting a long time to post these chapters. Keep posting any feedback about the story if you wish.

Chapter 13: Wrath of Rivalries​

Jason found all his plans failing. He refused to let Chase remain the huge threat to Team Chaos. He decided to use PorygonZ to hack into his email and see what he could use to his advantage. He finally came across a message from Vik that read:

The score so far:
Chase:3
Vik: 10 straight victories in a row. You can’t seem to defeat me in Gameboy anymore in this tournament season. Maybe you should quit these GBA tournaments and save yourself some embarrassment.

The email gave Jason an idea. That’s when Gwen and Skyler came in.
Skyler: “Jason, was everything going well while I was sick?”
Gwen: “I already told you that both me and Shade failed to defeat him.”
Jason: “I got an idea. You know the old cliché if you can’t beat them, join them. Well, I’m going to change that. The enemy is going to join the losing side.” Jason tells the plan to Skyler and Gwen. Skyler and Jason head on out, but Gwen stays behind.
Gwen: “If you can’t beat them, join them huh? Well since I can’t beat Chase- No I can’t. Not just yet.”The next day school was over for the weekend. Chase was heading outside when all of a sudden, A Zapdos flew in and landed in the campus. Vik jumped down from his Zapdos.
Chase: “What are you doing here Vik?”
Vik: “I want your cartridge ball. Just do this the easy way and hand it over.”
Chase: “What? What has gotten into you? Does Team Chaos or Team Rocket have anything to do with this?”
Vik: “It’s just you and me. Give me your cartridge ball now, or get ready to battle for it. Get ready Zapdos.” Chase’s schoolmates were wondering what they were talking about. However, they were eager to watch a battle.
Chase: “If I have to, I will battle. How about we head over to the football field?” Vik agrees. They go to the football field and take opposite sides of the field at the 40 yard lines. Chase inserted his FireRed game into his cartridge ball and then threw it.
Chase: “It’s your Zapdos against my Articuno.” Articuno emerges. Some of the high schoolers get a bit excited as they fill the bleachers, eager to watch an epic battle.
Vik: “Zapdos, Thunder Bolt.” Articuno is hit, but soon deflects it.
Chase: “Did you forget I EV trained my Articuno for Special defense? Articuno, Mind Reader!” Articuno focuses on Zapdos.
Chase: “It’s already over Vik. Articuno, finish this up with Sheer Cold!” The temperature drops several degrees in the stadium as Articuno launches a blast of snow and ice for its attack. Zapdos was about to get KO’d.
Vik: “I was this one coming. Zapdos, Protect!” Zapdos quickly projects a barrier and avoids the attack. Sheer Cold failed.
Vik: “Did you really think I’d make it that easy for you? Zapdos, Rain Dance.” Zapdos shoots a jolt of energy at the clouds that causes it to rain.
Chase: “That helps me too. Articuno, Water Pulse.” Articuno powers up its attack using the rain and fires the Water Pulse at Zapdos. Chase was hoping it would confuse it, but that didn’t seem to happen.
Vik: “Zapdos, Thunder!”
Chase: “Use Ice Beam, Articuno.” Articuno fires its Ice Beam, but it is overpowered by the Thunder attack since the rain made it wet and attracted all that electricity. Articuno is hit hard and can’t deflect it this time.
Chase: “Come on. Fight back with Ice Beam!” Articuno finally deflects the Thunder and fires it’s Ice Beam. Now it’s Zapdos taking a super effective hit. Vik wasn’t ready to back down yet.
Vik: “Fly up and use Thunder in the sky.” Zapdos gets out of the Ice Beam and ascends.
Chase: “Follow it and use Sheer Cold in the sky.” Articuno also ascends and is right behind it. Up in the sky, Zapdos fires its Thunder and at the same time, Articuno uses its Sheer Cold. These two attacks plus the rain causes a massive storm with lightning. Everyone in the stadium panics from the sudden storm caused by two legendary pokemon. When the storm clears, Zapdos falls from the sky frozen solid in a block of ice. Articuno slowly descends, while showing that it has taken on a ton of damage.
Chase: “Looks like this battle’s over. I win.” Vik recalls his frozen and fainted Zapdos. Tears appear in his eyes. Chase also commands Articuno to return.
Chase: “Cut it out, Vik. It was just a battle, right?”
Vik: “No. It wasn’t. I’ve failed.”
Chase: “Failed at what? Is there something I don’t know about?”
Vik: “Team Chaos kidnapped my parents. They left a note saying that if I fail the battle to you, something horrible would happen. Now I’m in for it.”
Chase: “I had no clue. Why didn’t you tell me this in the first place?”
Skyler: “Because if you knew, you would’ve held back.” Chase and Vik turn around, and see Skyler aboard his shiny Rayquaza. Something seemed different about Skyler to Chase this time. He looked more like he was possessed.
Chase: “Skyler? What’ve you done to my friend and his family?”
Skyler: “Way to fail, Vik. I’ll see to it that you parents come in handy at Team Chaos HQ. They’d make great labor. You know, doing our laundry, cooking us dinner.”
Vik: “Leave them alone. Take me instead.”
Skyler: “I have no time for you anymore. You’ve proven one thing to me though. I need to find some other way to get to Chase, just like how I’ve gotten to you Vik.”
Chase: “I’ll battle you for their return Skyler.” From his past experiences with Skyler, Chase figured that Skyler would accept, but this time, things were different.
Skyler: “I’ll deal with you later, Chase. Soon, you and everyone you know with a cartridge ball will fall to the ground. And before you know it, every person in the world will call me Master.” Skyler flies away on his Rayquaza. His evil laughter echoes in the skies.
Chase: “I’m sorry Vik. I guess I was too caught up in the battle and let our rivalry from past gameboy battles get in the way.”
Vik: “Yeah, now what’ll I do?”
Chase: “I should’ve never handed over the cartridge balls to you or the other Team Rocket members. Now anyone we know with a real pokemon is a target. Oh man, what’ve I done?”
Vik: “We need to find Team Chaos’s secrete base. I need to rescue my parents.”
Gwen: “There’ll be no rescuing anytime soon boys.” Vik and Chase are once again surprised as another Team Chaos member has snuck up on them.
Vik: “What do you want? You already have my parents.”
Gwen: “Did master Skyler forget to take your cartridge balls. I guess it’s my turn. If you both lose to me in this battle, it’s game over for the both of you.”
Vik: “Fine, but I want my parents back if I win.”
Chase: “If we win. After all, she did say double battle
Gwen: “Glad to see your both agree. Gardevoir and Umbreon, go!” Gardevoir and Umbreon come out of her Emerald game. Chase and Vik get ready to battle.
Chase: “Manetric, you’re on!”
Vik: “Go Tyranitar. Let’s win this.” Tyranitar and Manetric both appear. It was time for another battle to begin.

Chapter 14: Gwen’s confession​

Gwen was ready to begin her plan. She didn’t really want a double battle, but it was the only way to catch Chase’s attention for what she was truly up to.
Vik: “Tyranitar, activate your Sand Stream ability.” Tyranitar manages to make a sand storm come out of nowhere.
Gwen: “Gardevoir, use Psychic on Manetric. Umbreon, Dark Pulse.”
Chase: “Manetric, use Protect.”
Vik: “Tyranitar, Earthquake.” Manetric projects a barrier around it and takes no damage from the energy blasts of Dark Pulse and Psychic. Then Tyranitar triggers a huge quake. Manetric was fine. Gardevoir and Umbreon took some damage but stayed in the game.
Gwen (thinking): This isn’t working. I don’t have much time. I guess I’ll have to do it myself.
Chase: “Manetric, use Crunch on Gardevoir.”
Gwen (thinking): There we go. (outloud) “Gardevoir, fire a Charge Beam at it.”
Chase: “Use the Sandstorm to hide from it.”
Gwen: “Try to sense where it is using your Trace ability, then fire.” (thinking) You really know what to do, Gardevoir. Gardevoir concentrates for a minute, then fires a Charge Beam in Gwen’s direction. Gwen is hit by the Charge Beam and then screams.
Chase: “I don’t know about you, but she deserved that.”
Vik: "Her and the other Team Chaos members.” Gwen gets up and inspects the damage done to her suit. The Charge Beam stopped all of Jason’s gadgets from working. Just what she wanted.
Vik: “Tyranitar, use Rock Slide.”
Gwen: “Stop, the battle’s over.”
Chase: “It’s probably another trick, like what she did to us when we were meeting with Brad.”
Vik: “Yeah, full power Tyranitar.”
Gwen: “I’m not kidding this time. Umbreon, return.” Umbreon is called back into her Emerald game. Chase and Vik stop their attacks and Tyranitar cancels out the sandstorm.
Chase: “What’ going on Gwen. We’re not in a happy mood after what your master did.”
Gwen: “There’s something you need to know. First, call back your pokemon.”
Vik: “I’m not taking any chances. Tyranitar, be on guard.”
Chase: “You too Manetric.” Both of their pokemon growl angrily at Gwen.
Gwen: “I’m telling the truth. I need to talk to you both and that Lucas kid.”
Chase: “Don’t tell me. You’re going to kidnap him or his parents.”
Gwen: “I just need to tell him and you something important. My Gardevoir can Teleport us to his house. Just picture it in you mind and tell my Gardevoir to Teleport.” Chase still didn’t trust Gwen, but he listened anyway.
Chase: “Gardevoir, Teleport us.” Before he know it, Gardevoir actually Teleported him, Vik, Gwen, Manetric, and Tyranitar to Lucas’s house.
Gwen: “I told you I’m legit this time. Now will you call back you pokemon. Gardevoir, you return as well.” Chase and Vik called back their pokemon, but they were ready for any tricks that she could come up with.
Vik: “Dude, why are we trusting her? You know she could be up to something.”
Chase: “Tell me something I don’t know. I just want to see if she actually wants to tell us something. Whatever information she gives could help us save your parents.” Chase rings the doorbell. Mr. Beltran answers the door.
Mr. Beltran: “Oh hello Chase. I see you brought some friends. Is this a pokemon thing again?”
Gwen: “Oh, you must be AJ’s father.” Chase is shocked to hear that. He wondered how she knew about AJ.
Mr. Beltran: “Why yes I am. Would you all like to come in?”
Vik: “Hey Chase. Something doesn’t seem right about this.”
Chase: “Just shut up. We’ll see how things go.” They all go inside. Lucas was playing with his newly evolved Nidorino. He was happy to see Chase again.
Gwen: “I’m glad to see that you trust me now Chase.”
Lucas: “Who’s this Chase, your girlfriend?” Vik snickers at that comment.
Chase: “No, she’s a girl who’s going to get a one way ticket to Kingdom Come if she double crosses us again.”
Mr. Beltran: “What do you mean, Chase?”
Gwen: “Listen, all of you. I know you’ve struggled with Team Chaos, and there’s a reason for that. You see, Master Skyler, there’s something you all need to know.”
Lucas: “Wasn’t that the butthead who took me on his Rayquaza?”
Gwen: “Watch it, Lucas. Anyway, Skyler has been brainwashed.”
Chase and Vik: “Brainwashed?”
Gwen: “Yes, one of the Team Chaos Admins, Jason, has been keeping him under his mind control using his Hypno and Shade’s Darkrai. Skyler is just doing these things without even knowing it.”
Mr. Beltran: “So why tell me and my son?”
Gwen: “Because, Skyler’s true identity is AJ Beltran.” This shocks everyone who hears it. Lucas’s brother was brainwashed into someone who thinks he’s a villain.
Chase (with anger): “Y-you’re lying! My best friend would never become so villainous. So... evil and full of vengence.”
Gwen: “I’m afraid it’s true. Look at these pictures. One is the real AJ, the other is after he was brainwashed.” The AJ picture had long dirt blonde hair with hazel eyes. The Skyler picture a his hair cut a couple inches and his hair dyed brown. His hazel eyes had that soulless look in them, just like how Chase saw him when he first encountered Skyler. As they all compared the photos, they all realized that Gwen was telling the truth.
Lucas: “So my brother is the bad guy. I don't believe it."
Mr. Beltran: “Neither do I, son. I just wish it wasn’t true.”
Gwen: “I was there when they first brought AJ in. Jason’s father was the real leader of Team Chaos back then. He had just Kidnapped AJ in a conspiracy at a Pokemon Regional championship in Oregon. AJ was unconscious as he was brought in. His head was wired to a machine so the brain washing process could begin. He woke up right before it began. Those horrible screams of pain were the last things I ever heard out of the real AJ. After that, A Hypno’s Hypnosis was all it took to turn him into Skyler. I was in charge of his makeover so that no one would recognize him.” Chase, Vik, Lucas, and Mr. Juarez listen to this with much despair. Then, Vik gets alarmed.
Vik: “Hold on, you’re not going to turn my parents into Team Chaos members now, are you?”
Gwen: “No. We only kidnapped them to get to you and Chase. They’ll probably just get hypnotized into doing some housework for us.”
Vik: “You people sicken me.”
Lucas: “Chase, I don’t want my brother to be the bad guy. I want him to be just like he was before he disappeared.”
Chase: “So do I, Lucas. However, I think we’ll have to fight to get AJ back.”
Gwen: “If you all go to Team Chaos’s Head Quarters, you can find and hopefully break AJ’s mind control. While you’re at it, Vik can rescue his parents. Here, this disk holds our current location.” She hands it over to Chase.
Chase: ‘Yeah, but now that you’ve told us all of this, there will probably be a huge army of pokemon waiting to take us down.”
Gwen: “I got hit be my Gardevoir’s Charge Beam for a reason. Jason always monitors our missions through the gadgets he wired into our suits. That’s how we’ve learned so much about you and your friends. Since the Charge Beam has fried all of the gadgets, you’ve nothing to worry about.”
Vik: “I still think there’s something fishy about this.”
Gwen: “Don’t worry. I wanted to do this. I didn’t want any of those horrible events to happen. This is why I became a member of Team Chaos in the first place. To hinder them in their plot for World Domination. They started by kidnapping multiple kids and teens and turning them into Team Chaos members. And they did through conspiracies, like the incident at that one Regionals almost two years ago.”
Chase: “That explains it. I knew it wasn’t an ordinary accident.”
Gwen: “I’ve said enough. Lucas, good luck rescuing your brother. I must return to HQ before Jason suspect me of double crossing him.” She leaves and then releases Gardevoir to Teleport back to HQ. Chase, Vik, and Lucas were thinking about what to do about their upcoming mission.
Lucas: “I don’t’ want to fight. I just want my brother back.”
Mr. Beltran: “AJ won’t just come back. I think his friends can rescue him. Chase, please rescue him.” Just then, Chase gets an idea.
Chase: “Yeah, I will rescue him. Here Vik, you hold onto this disk.” Chase heads outside.
Vik: “Hold on Chase. What are you doing?”
Chase: “What else? I’m going to rescue my friend.” Chase releases his Pidgeot from his FireRed game.
Vik: “And how do you plan on doing that if you don’t know where he is.”
Chase: “I need to this alone. What I have in mind will also save your parents. I’m going to the site of the conspiracy at that Regionals and then I’ll use Celebi to travel back to that day and prevent the conspiracy from happening.”
Vik: “What? Chase, if you do that, then you won’t have your cartridge ball anymore.”
Chase: “It’s worth it if AJ and your parents can be away from Team Chaos.” He flies away on his Pigeot.
Vik (echoing): “Wait Chase. Don’t do it. You’re making a mistake.”

I've already said I'll try to post new chapters once a week. Maybe longer if I get held up with school, pokemon tourneys, volunteer work, ect.
 
Chapter 15

A quick note. Since my family plans on going on vacation for the holidays, it's possible that I won't post new chapter until 2007. Hope you'll enjoy this. Happy Holidays.:smile:

Chapter 15: Chronological collision​

Chase continued flying on his Pidgeot. Soon he approached the convention center where the Regional Championships took place nearly 2 years ago.
Chase: “This is it, Pidgeot. Let’s land.” They land in the back parking lot. Chase recalls his Pidgeot and then plays his FireRed game on his gameboy, restoring his pokemon to full health and getting his Celebi to his party. When it was all set, he saved his game and then readied his cartridge ball.
Chase: “Celebi, I choose you.” Celebi emerges from the cartridge ball. Chase was ready to face whatever waited for him in the past.
Chase: “Take me back in time Celebi. Take me back 22 months and 16 days from today!” Celebi concentrates for a minute. Then a bright flash of light appears. Chase covers his eyes for a minute. When he opens his eyes again, he sees a car with pokemon merchandise in it. Some people nearby were talking about the Regional Championships going on inside.
Participant: “I can’t believe I’m 0 and 3. No way I’ll make finals.”
Participant 2: “Hey, maybe you’ll win some random prize from those drawings.”
Chase (Thinking): The fourth round’s going to start soon. That’s when the conspiracy happened.
Tournament judge: “Would all participants head back inside for the next round. You there, quit hiding in the parking lot and get in here.” He was pointing at Chase.
Chase: “Oh, I’m not participating. I just dropped my car keys.” Chase got down on his knees and reached for his house key in his pocket. He managed to fool the judge.
Not too long after that, there was another bright flash of light. A teenager in a white coat appeared with his own Celebi. Judging from the lab coat and glasses along with the Team Chaos suit underneath his coat, Chase guessed he was the Jason character that Gwen told him about. Unknown to Chase, this Jason was actually 2 yeaers younger than the Jason that was living in Chase's present time.
Jason: “Well done Celebi. Now to recruit a new member Voltorb, now it’s your turn.” Jason releases a Voltorb from his cartridge ball. Then he places a fake bomb in a nearby Honda. Chase wondered what he was up to. Then he remembered that the car exploded not long after it crashed.
Chase (quietly): “He plans to use that Voltorb as a bomb. Celebi, use Psychic on that Voltorb and knock it out.” Celebi focuses some energy and Voltorb gets hit. Jason’s Celebi sense Chase’s Celebi and warns its trainer.
Jason: “What’s going on? Show yourself.” Chase’s Celebi levitates toward Jason and then fires another Psychic at the Voltorb.
Jason: “Voltorb, Protect. Celebi, use Shadow Ball.” Chase’s Celebi fails with its attack. Then it gets hit with the Shadow Ball. Chase quickly calls it back before it faints.
Chase: “Jason, knock it off.”
Jason: “You know me? Well, that explains the weakling Celebi. How on earth did you manage to find me here? Better yet, how did you get that cartridge ball?” Voltorb goes inside on of the cars in the parking lot. Chase forgets about for now.
Chase: “None of business. Go Gengar!” Chase releases his Gengar from his FireRed game.
Jason: “Do you really think you can defeat someone like me?”
Chase: “What makes you so special? That you’re a Team Chaos Admin?”
Jason: “That and that I’m from the future.”
Chase: “I know. Nearly two years form now.”
Jason: “You’re gravely miscalculated. I was born in the year 2045.”
Chase: “So, you that these cartridge balls are from the future as well?”
Jason: “Pokemon eventually lost its popularity in the year 2012. No one played it anymore and Nintendo stop inventing new pokemon. My grandfather was a kid when Game Freak stopped pokemon and was such a great fan of the game. He kept all his gameboy and DS games and passed them down to my father. My father was totally obsessed with it. With the technology we had back then, he wondered it if was possible to make virtual pokemon. However, as time passed, technology advanced. We finally managed to bring Pokemon to life, and we would rule the world using creatures that practically everyone thought was an antique game.”
Chase: “So why is Team Chaos in my time period?”
Jason: “Perhaps I’ve said too much. I’ve no time for games.”
Chase: “Who says I’m playing. Gengar, go inside that building and warn everyone of what’s going on here.”
Jason: “No! We cannot be exposed yet. Celebi, use Psychic!”
Chase: “Gengar, Destiny Bond now.” Celebi manages a one hit KO, but as Gengar faints, a shadowy aura surrounds both it and Jason’s Celebi. Celebi loses all its energy and faints.
Jason: “How dare you. Well, there’s more than one way for me to complete my mission. Return Celebi, and go Hypno.” Celebi and Hypno switch places from real world to inside a game. Chase called back his Gengar as well.
Chase: “Well guess what, I won’t let you succeed. Go Metagross!” Now Metagross was unleashed.
Jason: “Hypnosis, now!” Hypno manages to get Metagross under its spell.
Chase: “No, Metagross, snap out of it.”
Jason: “I’m behind schedule. I’ve spent too much time in this time period. Hypno, use psychic on this car and ram that building.” Hypno focuses on the car Voltorb hid inside in and then sent it flying into the convention center.
Chase: “Metagross, I need you now more than ever!" Metagross finally snaps out of it.
Jason: “Too late.” The car has hit the wall. Chase could hear all the people panicking. Jason ran toward the wreck to see who he could get to join Team Chaos.
Chase: “Back off Jason!” Inside the building, AJ could hear Chase scream that last comment. He went toward the wreck to see if his friend was already outside. Meanwhile, Chase and Metagross headed toward Jason.
Jason: “Voltorb, Self Destruct when I give the signal.”
Chase: “Use Psychic Metagross.”
Jason: “A little help Hypno.” Hypno uses a Fire Punch on Metagross.
Chase: “Hang in there and use Meteor Mash.” Metagross lifts on of its legs and tries to hit Hypno with a Meteor Mash, but Hypno escapes and then Metagross just hits the car. This irritates the Voltorb, and then it Self Destructs as a result. AJ saw the real Metagross and then was caught in the explosion.
Jason: ‘You are quite a nuisance. Hypno, another Fire Punch.” Jason runs inside.
Chase: “Just hold the fort Metagross.” Chase runs after Jason. Jason found AJ unconscious from the explosion. He looked at his pokemon cards and gameboy.
Jason: “This kid is perfect. All we need to do is brainwash him first."
Chase: “Leave him alone!” Chase comes running through the flames from where the car exploded. Jason knew what to do. He threw a smoke bomb to the ground. Now Chase couldn’t see a thing.
Jason: “You’ve fought well. I suspect this is a friend of yours? He’ll make a great foe against you. I’ll see you later.” Chase listened for the direction from where his voice was coming from, and then he charges in that direction. He manages knock Jason over.
Chase: “I am one person you don’t want to mess with. You’ve caused me and my friends much misery in my time period, and I’m here to put a stop to that! Now I choose-“
Younger Chase: “AJ, where are you! C’mon, we gotta go!”
Chase: “Oh crud. I forgot that I come here looking for AJ. I can’t let my younger self meet me now, but I can’t let you out of my sights.”
Jason: “It’s your choice. You can either let me go, or expose both us and the real pokemon.” Chase becomes quite bitter at the situation he has gotten himself into. He didn’t plan running into himself.
Younger Chase: “AJ! Answer me! Where did you go?!” Chase lets Jason get up and take AJ and quickly follows him out through the hole in the wall.
Jason: “Hypno-“
Chase: “Metagross-“
Chase and Jason: “Use psychic on the smokescreen to give us more cover.” The injured Metagross and Hypno work together to cover up the hole in the wall. Soon sirens are heard in the distance.
Younger Chase (inside the building): “AJ! Come on, no more pranks. This is no time to get bitter over my victory in our battle. AJ!” Jason releases another Celebi from his Emerald game.
Jason: “Thanks for your help. I’ll be sure to let my leader know how you help, and remind him how handy it is to have more than one Celebi for time travel. Celebi, back to our time period.” Jason's Celebi starts to open a portal. Chase acts quickly.
Chase: “Return Metagross. You’re not getting away from me that easily” Once again, Chase dives at Jason and shoves him into the portal. Chase and AJ fall in as well and Hypno quickly follows.
Jason: “What are you doing? Get away from me.”
Chase: "Not until I rescue me friend!”
Jason: “Well that’s too bad. Celebi, use Leaf Storm on this kid.” Celebi fires hundreds on leaves at Chase. Chase screams in pain as he gets hit by the attack, slicing his clothes and skin. They all land in the parking lot again, sometime in the future. Chase was left weak from his injuries.
Jason: “Well it was fun. I’d take you too, but I’ll just have my father decide what to do with you. Celebi, Hypno, let’s Fly using Psychic.” Chase has no choice but to watch Jason levitate away with AJ in his arms.
Chase (weakly): “No. I’ve failed.” Chase slowly reaches for his cartridge ball. Every movement he made ached since the Leaf Storm attack managed to leave cuts all over his body. He releases his Celebi once more.
Chase (weakly): “Heal Bell.” Celebi starts to emit what sounded like bell chimes. The cuts on Chase’s body miraculously heal. He regains some energy back.
Chase: “Whoa, I’m glad attacks like those also work on people. Now, let’s go back to our time period.” Celebi transports Chase back to just a couple minutes after he left.
Chase: “Vik was right. Going back in time was a mistake. Nothing left to do know except go home. Thanks for everything Celebi, return.” Celebi nods and then goes back into the FireRed game. Chase then releases his Pidgeot and Flies home.

Thats crazii

Him going into the past to stop jason is going to have Jason remembering who he is when he gets back into the future and its going to effect his time period alot

IMO
 
ok, ok. You've been on vacation long enough. Start typing! We want to find out what happens. What about Jirachi and Vik and AJ and. . . . . .
 
Chapter 16

*decides to wait and see how long it'll take for someone to notice that chapter 16 has been posted* >_>

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Chapter 16: Behind the schemes​

Gwen and her Gardevoir had just Teleported back to HQ. They enter where Shade and Jason were waiting for her. This Jason was about a year older than the Jason Chase met in the past.
Shade: “Where have you been?”
Gwen: “Running an errand. Being a Team Chaos Admin is not all I’m about. I have a life, you know. Gardevoir, return.” Gardevoir is recalled back into Gwen’s Emerald game.
Jason: “Even though Vik couldn’t get the cartridge ball for us, we’ve still got a chance to bring down Chase. If he continues to stay our biggest threat, we may not complete the final steps to put our new world order in place. I find it strange that he manage to find me when I visited Oregon nearly 2 years from this era. Now how would he find me and why would your Gardevoir disable your communication devices, Gwen?” Gwen immediately got the feeling that she was being suspected for her treason against Team Chaos.
Gwen: “It was an accident. That Manetric may have jumped in front of me and then dodge the Charge Beam using the Sandstorm for cover. Besides, Chase knew his friend was kidnapped during that Pokemon event you crashed 23 months from this time period.”
Jason: “I won’t let you off the hook that easily Gwen.” He plays a surveillance tape recorded from a security camera. The video of her showed her hacking into one of Jason’s super computers and looking at his files from the future.
Jason: “What we have here is a traitor. Shade, would you do the honors?”
Shade: “With pleasure. Darkrai, Ariados, go!” Darkrai and Ariados emerge from two separate pokeballs. Gwen reaches for her cartridge ball, but it is snatched by the Ariados. Obviously, Shade had planned this from the beginning.
Jason: “We knew you’d betray us. I just didn’t want to imprison you until you helped us set the perfect trap for Chase. Thanks to you, he’ll come to us and then be annihilated along with whoever else dears defy Team Chaos.” Gwen starts to run, but Shade is already one step ahead of her.
Shade: “Ariados, String shot! Darkrai, use Dark Void!” Ariados shoots a thread from its mouth which entangles Gwen’s legs causing her to trip. Then Darkrai appears right in front of her and starts to cast its dark spell.
Shade: “Easy Darkrai, we don’t want her completely asleep. As for you Ariados, tie her up nice and tight.” Gwen finds herself rendered useless. Darkrai has made her quite sleepy as well, but she had enough energy to put up her argument.
Gwen: “What are you going to do with me now? Haven’t I done what you needed me for? Just like Shade, I’m nothing more than one of your servants.” Gwen grows more tired from the effects of Dark Void.
Shade: “What does she mean?”
Gwen: “All those Team Chaos grunts… they were… real people. You lied to them and… manipulated them, just like what you did to Skyler and Shade.”
Shade: “You’re mistaken. Like you, I was never brainwashed. I choose to be this way.”
Gwen: “Wake up Matthew!”
Shade: “Don’t call me that! I was nothing until I joined Team Chaos my life as Matthew was miserable. I’ve reinvented myself thanks to Jason.”
Jason: “Don’t think that this means we’re kicking you out of Team Chaos. You still have value to us and our leader will not allow us to let you go. You know too much, and is reason enough for me to imprison you. Don’t expect to be rescued.” Gwen continues to lose her energy. She didn’t want to fall asleep just yet.
Gwen: “The only… reason you’re in this era… in the first place…”
Jason: “Go on and say it. In hear, no one will hear you scream.”
Gwen: “No one except AJ.”
Shade: “There is no AJ.”
Gwen: “You’re only here… because your stupid new world order…” She slowly starts to lose consciousness.
Gwen: “...failed in the future. You would have the advantage here in my time era. Your final project, Chase will stop it.”
Shade: “What did she mean by final project? Something you’re not telling me?”
Jason: “This is all just a cover up for what my father is doing. Out there, in another secrete location, even as we speak, my father is working on the final project. We were found out in the future, so we fled to this time era, when pokemon was still popular so no one would suspect a thing.”
Gwen: “I will not allow Project…” She passes out. Ariados wraps her up in more thread nice and tight. Then Darkrai stops using its Dark Hall.
Shade: “So what’s the final project?”
Jason: “My father thought that brainwashing may backfire on me like it has just now. At least we were able to find out who’s the traitor this time. Now be a good Admin and lock up Gwen in one of our prison holds underground.” Shade picks up Gwen and carries her to her new prison cell. Jason goes to check on Skyler. Now that Chase knew the truth and he knew Chase would be coming to rescue his friend, he needed everything to be ready for the perfect trap. He enters a room where his Hypno was once again hypnotizing Skyler.
Jason: “That’s enough Hypno. Now Skyler, does the name Lucas has any significance to you?” Skyler just sits there.
Skyler: “Lucas…” His voice was as monotone as a robot’s.
Skyler: “No. What are your next orders?”
Jason: “Prepare for battle. I need more time to complete the Final Project.” Meanwhile, Shade was locking up Gwen’s prison cell when she regains consciousness. Team Chaos’s prison didn’t have iron bars. Instead, it had a transparent barrier. Gwen slowly tries to rise back onto her feet, but loses her strength.
Shade: “I see my Darkrai had mercy on you. You’d be having nightmares if I decided to go full force on you."
Gwen: “Matthew…”
Shade: “I told you. There is NO Matthew. There is NO AJ! Give it a rest.”
Gwen: “You have to realize… that this won’t work… at least not forever.”
Shade: “Nothing you say will change a thing. We’re done with you.” Gwen slowly regains her energy. She finally rises to her feet.
Gwen: “Do you even know why Jason is doing this? His stupid project that would enable his new world order was found out and they would’ve been arrested if he didn’t call upon Celebi and escaped to this time period. He’s trying to finish what he failed to do in the future. He won’t tell you any of this because he doesn’t trust you. He didn’t trust me either, so I hacked my way into the truth.”
Shade: “I’ll decide for myself what is true and what isn’t.” Shade walks away. Gwen didn’t worry too much about. Ever since Shade has reinvented himself, he just became more stubborn than ever. Back with Jason, he had finished manipulating Skyler’s mind the way he needed for the next encounter with Chase. Shade finally catches up.
Shade: “Skyler, ready for the next battle?”
Skyler: “Shade, Jason and I have decided to let him take over Team Chaos until the real leader comes here.” Shade is shocked by this. He had no idea that Skyler was under Jason’s control.
Shade: “What? Jason, is there something going on here that I don’t know about?” Jason steps aside to reveal that his Hypno has been released.
Jason: “I can’t afford any mistakes for the next battle. The perfect trap and Final Project shouldn’t have any interference. Think you’ve never been hypnotized Shade? Think again? I’ve manipulated you before.” Shade begins to realize that Gwen was telling the truth.
Shade: “Gwen’s not the traitor. You are!”
Jason: “As if Gwen wasn’t hard to find out. Hypno, Hypnosis.” Shade pulls out a pokeball.
Shade: “Darkrai, Dark Pulse attack.” He throws his pokeball but Jason catches it and disables it with an electronic device. Shade falls victim to the Hypnosis. Then Jason turns to Skyler.
Jason: “Ready your friend here for battle and start setting up our perfect trap for Chase and his friends. I must prepare for my father’s arrival. Hopefully, he’ll finally step down and make me the real leader of Team Chaos.” Jason exits the room laughing evilly. He was confident that nothing would stop him now.

Chapters 17 & 18

It feels great to be working on this side project of mine again. I've already planned out how the story ends, so that means only 8 (not including these two) more chapters to go before the story ends. Remember, some characters share the same colored text, so try not to mix them up (like some readers I know >_>) Enjoy!
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Chapter 17: Flashback​

Chase continues his flight home on his Pidgeot. He was a bit depressed at his failure in rescuing his friend. A flashback of when they were friends played in his head. It was the last day of school at Walker Middle School nearly 3 years ago. He and AJ were signing each others yearbooks.
AJ: “This is it Chase. I go onto high school and you go onto eighth grade.”
Chase: “We’ll still see each other at Pokemon League, right? After all, I keep owning your Salamence with my Swampert’s Blizzard.”
AJ: “True, but hopefully while I’m in high school, I can come up with strategies that you’ll never hear about until another gameboy tournament.” They exchange each others yearbook after signing them. Then shake hands as they said goodbye.
Chase: “Since we’re best friends, promise me one thing.”
AJ: “What’s that?”
Chase: “Don’t ever change.” AJ smiles and then nods.
AJ: “You got a deal.” Chase snaps out of his trance as his house comes into view.
Chase (quietly): “You’ve changed all right.” As he lands in the front yard, he is a bit surprised to see that Vik was waiting for him.
Vik: “Took you long enough to get here.” Chase calls back his Pidgeot into his FireRed game.
Chase: “What are you doing here?”
Vik: “I’ve no parents to go home to, remember?” Chase goes up to the front porch to unlock the door.
Chase: “Oh yeah.” Vik gets a closer look at Chase and sees the cuts all over his clothes.
Vik: “What happened to you? Whatever happened, I gotta be right about going back in time was a mistake.” They enter the house, take off their shoes, and then sit down on separate chairs in the living room.
Chase: “I got hit by a Celebi’s Leaf Storm attack. I was able to use my Celebi’s Heal Bell to heal my injuries. It didn’t matter if I went back or not. I actually ended up helping Jason get what he needed.”
Vik: “What? How could you end up helping out the enemy?” Chase gets up and starts heading upstairs to his room.
Chase: “My younger self was almost exposed to the real pokemon and the danger. So I had to give up in order to avoid anymore trouble.” He goes through his closet and picks out another pair of blueJeans and a T-shirt.
Vik: “I don’t believe this. How could it be that neither you nor that kid Lucas never recognize him as AJ and not Skyler?”
Chase: “Let’s see. It’s been 23 months since he disappeared, his voice changed, that makeover Gwen gave him, and he being hypnotized gave him a new attitude. Does that pretty much sum it up for you?”
Vik: “Yeah. Did you forget that I just moved to Oregon last year? I never met AJ.”
Chase: “Oh yeah." Chase heads into the bathroom to change out of his torn clothing. It's not long before he comes back out and heads downstaits to throw away his old clothes.
Chase: "Anyway, what to do now? We got 3 people who need rescuing and it’s up to us. Hey, wait a minute.” Chase has another flashback. This time of when he first me Skyler and he communicated with Jirachi.
Vik: “Something on your mind Chase?”
Chase: “Yeah. When I first got my cartridge ball, that Jirachi I wished it from said save us. I had no clue what that meant until just now. I bet that Jirachi knew the connection between me and Skyler. I still wonder why of all places, he choose to attack my school to recruit new Team Chaos members?”
Vik: “I don’t know. Maybe he subconsciously remembered it, but didn’t think it was his school back in his days as a normal person.”
Chase: “Well, the subconscious theory is the best we got. I bet the real AJ inside must’ve realized his own house, but not his family. Alright, let’s get to work. You still got that disk Gwen gave us?” Vik hands over the disk to Chase. Chase then turns on his computer in the living room and inserts the disk.
Vik: “Gwen gave us the location. I just hope that this disk isn’t loaded with a PorygonZ ready to hack the computers again.”
Chase: “Yeah, the internet is still down from that incident.” Chase turns on his computer and loads the floppy disc. The floppy disc contained a few files. Two of them were password protected. Vik and Chase weren’t surprised by that. The last file contained a map with the location of Team Chaos’s located in a rural area of Wyoming.
Vik: “so that’s where they’re hiding? In the middle of nowhere?”
Chase: “I don’t care if they’re at the bottom of the ocean, and I wouldn’t consider Wyoming the middle of nowhere, even if their base is located in a rural away from cities. I just want to rescue AJ and your parents and tear Team Chaos apart. Now the question is when to go?”
Vik: “You must be really out of it. Did you forget that Spring break starts today?” Chase slaps his forehead.
Chase: “Duh. We can leave right away. Oh wait, we need a plan. No doubt that it’ll be difficult to get into Team Chaos’s base, even if they don’t expect us coming.”
Vik: “Just surprise attack them with our strongest attacks, like Hyper Beam, Explosion, or Eruption.”
Chase: “Vik, I’m not sure-" The front door opens and then closes. Chase looks over his shoulder to see that his mom has came home from work. She is a bit surprised to see Vik there.
Chase: “Hi mom.”
Vik: “Hi Mrs. Fisher.”
Mrs. Fisher: “Hello boys. Chase, you know you’re supposed to call me before you let any of your friends over here, even if it is Spring Break.” She sets her binder and school bag on the table. Chase quickly ejects the disk and turns off the computer so his mother wouldn’t see what he was really up to.
Chase: “Had a nice day with the first graders, mom?”
Mrs. Fisher: “I would think by now I’d be used to children being hyper whenever a long break is about to happen. So why is your friend here?”
Vik: “My parents-" Chase interrupted him before he could finish.
Chase: “Are inviting me to stay at their place for a few days. Please mom, can I go?”
Mrs. Fisher: “Is your homework finished yet?”
Chase: “Just because you’re a teacher, that doesn’t mean homework is everything. I only have one assignment left anyway. I can finish it when I get back.” His mom sighs.
Mrs. Fisher: “Fine. Make sure you call me tonight so I know how well everything’s going.”
Chase: “Great, we’ll be upstairs.” Chase and Vik run upstairs. In his room, Chase fills his backpack with some snacks, extra clothes, and toothpaste and his tooth brush.
Chase: “You want to stop by your house and pack up? We got a huge mission ahead of us.” Vik opens the window and gets his cartridge ball out.
Vik: “Sure, then I’ll meet you back here. Jo, come on out.” His Swellow appears hovering right outside Chase’s bedroom window. Vik carefully climbs out of the window and onto Jo’s back. Chase then gets a phone call. The ringtone almost made Vik lose his balance. Chase hangs up in seconds.
Chase: “I’ll see you in a bit. Call me when you’re on your way here.”
Vik: “Where are you going?” Chase puts his backpack on and prepares a new team on his Emerald game on his gameboy.
Chase: “To get some recruits for our mission.” When Chase is done, he release his Arcanine into his backyard and rides it to Lucas’s house. Vik Flies home so he could be ready to rescue his parents.

Chapter 18: Nothing left to lose​

Chase arrived at Lucas’s house in no time. As he rang the doorbell he recalled his Arcanine into his FireRed game. Then he switched it out of his cartridge ball with his Emerald game. Mrs. Beltran answers the door.
Chase: "You called me over here?"
Mrs. Beltran: “Glad to see you.” Chase comes in and he sees Lucas moping around staring at a picture of him and AJ playing in the park. Chase walked over to him and looked at the picture.
Chase: “You know I miss him too. AJ was my best friend, remember?” Lucas nods. He just stays silent.
Chase: “Quiet as usual, huh Lucas?” Lucas just turns away and continues to stare at the photo.
Mr. Beltran: “That backpack is a dead giveaway that you’re going to rescue AJ.” Chase nods.
Chase: “My friend Vik who was here earlier will help me. We’re going to take Team Chaos down and hopefully break their mind control over AJ." Lucas gets a bit excited.
Lucas: “Let me go with you. Please Chase, I want to help rescue my brother.”
Mrs. Beltran: “It’s too dangerous, Lucas. I won’t let you.” The doorbell rings. Chase wasn’t expecting Vik to be back so early. He didn’t even think Vik would memorize his way to Lucas’s house. Mr. Beltran answers the door and Zach and Katie come running in carrying a bag with items needed of any standard sleepover.
Zach: “Hey Lucas, we’re here to stay at your house for Spring Break.”
Chase: “Hee hee, funny. That’s the excuse I used to get permission to go to Team Chaos’s base.”
Lucas: “And I’m going with you to rescue my brother.”
Zach: “Cool, me too.”
Katie: “Hey, you two can’t leave me here. Mom and dad already left for the Casino anyway.” Mrs. Beltran grunts angrily at Chase for what he started.
Mrs. Beltran: "No, you kids are not going!” The three kids stop arguing.
Lucas: “Aw mom.”
Zach: “Yeah, you’re no fun anyway.”
Katie: “Quiet or you’ll get us in trouble Zach.”
Chase: “All of you, quiet down. I’ll just go by myself and you three just wait. Lucas, I promise I’ll save AJ with the help of my friend Vik.”
Lucas: “But I thought I was your friend too.” This puts Chase in a though spot. He could tell that Lucas really wanted to go. Soon, he thought it would help if he came.
Chase: “Alright, you win. I could use all the help I could get.”
Mrs. Beltran: “Chase, reconsider that decision, please.”
Lucas: “Mom, I can handle myself. Watch, Go Spiny!” He throws his pokeball and his Nidorino emerges with a roar. Zach then gets his pokeball.
Zach: “We can help too, right Spearow?” He throws his pokeball and his Spearow emerges with a shrilling cry.
Katie: “And Ponyta and I will-” She’s about to throw her pokeball but everyone else stops her.
Everyone except Katie: “No, not in the house!” She puts her pokeball down
Katie: “No fair. As if my Ponyta will set the house on fire.”
Mr. Beltran: “Actually, that’s exactly what I’m afraid of.” Just then, Vik knocks on the window letting Chase know that he was ready. Vik was wearing his Team Rocket shirt again. Chase just runs up to the front door to greet him.
Chase: “I’m not quite ready yet. How’d you know I was here anyway?”
Vik: “I heard the Spearow’s cry while flying on Jo.” Chase looks over at Jo. The poor Swellow was tired out and collapsed on the lawn.
Chase: “Hey Vik, I’m thinking about bringing AJ’s younger brother with us.”
Vik: “Are you crazy bringing a little kid with us?”
Lucas: “I heard that. I’m nine years old, that’s a big kid.” Mr. Beltran gets Lucas to settle down.
Chase: “There’s really nothing we have left to lose by bringing them. Besides, remember what you said at my house? AJ subconsciously remembering his house without even knowing it. I think we can use Lucas to break through to him. I’ll have him tag along with me while you go rescue your parents. By the way, is the Rocket Boss going to be joining us?”
Vik: “No. He said he had too much to worry about and also said you and I can handle Team Chaos.”
Chase: So it’s you me and three kids versus and army of Team Chaos grunts and those annoying admins. Just great.” Meanwhile, The Beltran's were debating on letting Lucas and his friends join Chase on his rescue mission. Lucas on the other hand, was getting psyched that he would get to go on an adventure. He was in his room with his two friends Zach and Katie. Spiny and Spearow were called back into their pokeballs.
Lucas: “This is going to be the best Spring Break ever!”
Katie: “There’s no way you’re leaving without us, Lucas.”
Zach: “Yeah, we want to help save your brother. Besides, this is something I always wanted to do. Our classmates are going to be so jealous of us.”
Lucas: “And Chase with his Team Rocket buddy is coming too.” Chase walks in with the Beltrans.
Chase: “OK Lucas, you and your friends are coming.” Lucas can no longer hold in his excitement.
Mr. Beltran: “But, the three of you need to listen to Chase and his friend. Promise your mom and I that you’ll behave and come home with no injuries.”
Lucas, Zach, and Katie: “We promise.”
Lucas: “We’ll be ok dad. Look at it this way. I’m Ash, Zach and Katie are May and Max, and Chase is Brock.” Zach and Katie snicker at Lucas’s comparisons.
Chase: “I am nothing like Brock, and out of curiosity, which character do you think Vik is like?” Lucas thinks for a second.
Lucas: “Either James or Butch.” They all head outside where Vik has prepared two Rayquazas for travel.
Mrs. Beltran: “You sure this is safe?”
Vik: “Of course, and Rayquaza is also fast, so we can be back in a couple days. Hopefully less.”
Chase: “Also, we won’t have any problems with weather since Rayquaza’s Air Lock ability negates all storms or anything else nature might throw at us. All right, Lucas, you Fly with me. Vik, think you can handle those twins?”
Vik: “Sure I can.”
Zach: “Let’s go James.” Katie chuckles.
Katie: “I think you mean Butch.” Zach and Lucas also chuckle.
Lucas: “Can we go now, Brock?”
Chase: “Ok, that’s enough out of you, rascal.” They all climb on. Chase and Lucas on one Rayquaza. Zach, Katie, and Vik on the other. They start to take flight.
Mrs. Beltran: “Lucas, be careful! I don’t want to lose you too!”
Chase: “Don’t worry; when there’s nothing left to lose, we win! Now Rayquaza-”
Chase and Vik: “Extremespeed!” They disappear in a matter of seconds in the sky.

I still read, but this is what happens to fanfics,
they begin with tons of replies, then you get one between chapters
