A Team Rocket Story (Name in Progress)

Chapter 15

At that everyone left. As we exited I groaned and punched the wall next to me, "This is going to be impossible!"

"Tessie, what's wrong?" James asked.

"I don't have any Pokemon that know fly, all the air crafts have been signed out and if we take out bikes to Pallet town it'll take longer than it should have to..." I told him as I rested my head against the wall.

Meowth climbed onto my shoulder and frowned, "How long would it take by bike?"

"Almost three days, a day and half there and a day and a half back." I growled, "From the base to the stadium it takes another day, but from Pallet town, it'll be almost doubled.. So That's basically all the time we have."

"On top of that you have to register too...." Meowth added.

"Yes I know, Meowth!" I snapped at him.

Suddenly another few voices joined the conversation, "Hey what's going on?" Asked Houston.

"Are you alright?" Sophia asked, resting a hand on my shoulder.

As their partners approached I noticed James became slightly tensed, "I'm fine,.. I just don't know how I'm going to do everything in four days."

Houston shook his head, "You'll be fine. You can register for the league at a Pokemon center.... Uh, an actual one, not the one here... Ours isn't  exactly licensed."

I nodded, "Okay thanks Houston."

Houston nodded and suddenly Jessie clung to his arm, "Isn't he so smart~?" She cooed.

I rolled my eyes and ignored her, "Alright.... Well as long as I can get registered that's fine by me... I just need my badges to prove that I am a trainer."

Sophia sighed, "Maybe if you had a different Vehicle, faster than your motorbikes, you'd have time to spare..." Sophia was really sweet, and one of the best in the top ten... But occasionally she was little to no help... But she was nice to have around. She was taller than me, but shorter than James, she had a deceiving innocent looking face which made her great at swindling people for her Pokemon. She had long dark brown hair that was down to her middle back and soft brown eyes. She was right though. We needed a different way of transportation. "I would let you borrow my motorcycle but it's about the same speed as your bikes."

Suddenly Jessie broke in again, "And you can't use the balloon because that belongs to Houston and I!" She glared at James as she said it.

"It's got my face on it." Meowth mumbled.

I sighed, "Great. The boss is gonna kill me if I don't get my badges." Suddenly something tickled the back of neck. I reached back and grabbed at it, catching what was touching my neck, "Car keys?"

Kirimi walked out from behind me, "Take my car, it's a lot faster, but be sure to take the back roads." She said, monotonously.

"Really?"

The purplenette nodded, "You're the bosses favorite. You, of all of us, aren't allowed to fail." She smiled, "Oh and bring it back in one piece."

I laughed, "Thanks Kirimi!" I turned to James, "Let's go going then."

"Right!"

James and I started running off towards the garage before I stopped and turned around, "Thanks guys! All of you!" They all waved back, as I continued on my way to the garage. We made it inside and looked at all the cars inside, "Alright which one is Kirimi's?"

There were at least 30 different cars in the entire garage... AT LEAST. Which one could be hers? James walked over to one of about seven different purple cars, "Try unlocking this one."
