Adventures Coming Close

Chapter 6

After getting my Badge, I decided to stay with Ash for a while.

Before leaving Misty wanted to look at some of the ships, understandable they looked awesome.

 While on the Docks two females, who looked very familiar I just couldn't place it, with long hair and short shirts came up to us.

"Congratulations!" They sounded way too excited, "You're way lucky! You get to go on a super deluxe sea cruise!"

"Cooooool," the second girl said extremely loudly.

"Well, it's like, you know, we have these incredible super cool tickets for you"

"Cooooool!"

"These are tickets for the biggest party ever, on board the St. Anne cruise liner!"

"Coooool!"

"And it's for Pokemon Trainers only! Okay, Dudes here's your Tickets. And they're totally free!"

The girls handed us our tickets and walked away.

"Okay, well that was interesting."

We hopped around and onto the St. Anne.

It was huge, so many rooms. In the background, I could hear trainers talking and comparing there Pokemon. Ash naturally noticed a battle going on in the distance and wanted to challenge whoever it was. So we walked over, I had to practically hold Ash back. A tall rich looking guy was battling, along a Raticate, against a teenager with a Starmie. Raticate won by breaking the gem.

"Who else wants to challenge me?" The rich guy asked.

"I do!" Ash jumped in front of everyone.

Ash let Butterfree out. At least Butterfree has the flying advantage, so I guess Ash isn't a total idiot.

Ash won."Hey, your Butterfree is pretty good."

"So is your Raticate."

"How about we trade them?"

"Trade?"

"Yeah, it's where if two people like each other Pokemon you trade."

"Okay then. Sure." Ash, I was wrong, you're an idiot.

Butterfree is so much better than Raticate, he probably just wants the upgrade.

"Ash are you sure?" I asked."Yeah, I get a new Pokemon!" Oh, there's no hope.

We walked off to find a trading machine. Ash put Butterfree's Poke ball on his side and the rich guy did the same.

We went back to the main deck and Ash looked out the sea, kinda sad."What's wrong Ash?" Misty asks."Just wondering if Butterfree is happy."

"Well, at least you got a Raticate." She tried to cheer him up.

A couple of minutes ago everyone heard a loud screech. Seconds later a bunch of Team Rockets members ran out and jumped from impossible places. "Give us your Pokemon". A few even had vacuum backpacks for the Poke balls."You can't just take them, we can still fight you!" Ash yelled out.

"Yeah!" Some other kids yelled out, "let's stop them!"

After that, there were a lot of Pokemon were attacking Team Rocket members. I think a few even were pushed overboard, but that's not important.

"Right, now it's my turn!" Ash said looking over at a bunch of Butterfrees, "Go, Butterfree!" He threw his Poke ball, only for a Raticate to come out. He forgot.

"Ash, you traded it, remember?" Misty reminded him.

"Oh, yeah." He looked so depressed. Only to run off."Ash, wait up" I ran after him, Misty and Brock stayed behind.
