In the dark of night, our favorite members of Team Rocket sit in a dark cave, hidden away from the curious eyes of anyone in the nearby towns or villages.
They sat, watching a video clip they had taken of their previous battle with Ash and the rest of his traveling crew. The more they watched Pikachu's power be demonstrated, the more they wanted to capture the electric mouse pokemon.
They had paused their video, trying to focus on their desired target, when a blurry silhouette in the background caught their eyes.
"It's that girl again!" The only female of their group announced. This caused the cream-colored feline and his blue-haired partner to squint and attempt to get a closer look at the blurry figure.
The image was enough to show that it was a young girl, seemingly the same age as the rest of her traveling companions, and the colors of her outfit were mostly reds, blues, and different shades of brown.
Unfortunately for them, any specific details like her face weren't visible. They groaned in frustration when they replayed the video and found that in none of the shots, there was no way to find a clear image of the mystery girl's face.
They fell back in frustration and decided to come up with a plan to capture Pikachu while also hoping to catch a glance at the mystery girl's true identity.
As they continued stirring up an evil plan, a shadowy figure floated behind them. They only noticed, when it was too late.
The mysterious figure seemed to be a Pokemon, as it had used a bright light to blind them.
The question was... who is Madame X?
~~~~~
"I'm just saying: I'm more a dog-type Pokemon kinda gal than cat-type. My dad had a Meowth that evolved into the most vicious Persian and it always seemed to have this weird like, a grudge against me for some reason," The group of traveling trainers were asking and answering various questions to get to know each other better. They traveled along the path to Cyllage City, in anticipation for Ash's next gym battle.
On their way, they came across an old, seemingly abandoned building. The outside was dated and had a rusted fence surrounding the perimeter.
The friends only glanced at it curiously before a strange sound came rustling from the nearby bushes.
Everyone stood in a defensive circle, surrounding Bonnie, as they waited for the thing to either disappear or show itself.
To everyone's surprise, the mystery creature was a Meowth. And not just any Meowth. The talking one that works for Team Rocket.
Everyone lowered their fists and pokeballs, but that didn't mean that they felt he was entirely harmless. Especially Cassie.
She turned her head away from Meowth's eye-line and felt the panic in her rising.
'Oh no no no no no no no... NO! What am I gonna do? If he sees me, I'm done for! No more adventure! No more new stuff! And after pulling this little 'stunt,' he won't even let me walk outside in the garden without a bodyguard.
Before she could do anything besides letting her brown locks fall in front of her face, the pokemon collapsed to the ground.
The crew exclaimed loudly as Clemont rushed to the cat's side and pulled out a large colorful bottle from his large travel pack. He sprayed the thin liquid layer onto the Pokemon and Meowth's eyes fluttered open, all of his cuts and wounds fading away.
"Ok, now why are you here? And where are Jessie and James?" Ash questioned with his teeth clenched and fists balled up.
"No no no! Please! Don't hurt me! I need your help! Please!" Meowth begged and pleaded for mercy as everyone lowered their guards and looked on in confusion. Meowth started to explain how some mysterious woman named Madame X abducted both Jessie and James, along with all their pokemon.
"Woah, that sounds intense." Ash was in deep thought about each word that came out of Meowth's mouth. While he wanted to believe him, he, of course, couldn't completely trust the suspicious cat.
However, his moral compass couldn't let him just stand by and watch.
"Fine, we'll help you,"
"AW REALLY ASH?" The rest of his friends weren't as easily swayed but he thought he could count on one of them to back up his reasoning.
"WE HAVE TO! You agree, right Cass? Cass?" He turned in hopes that the young woman would agree with his point of view, but to no avail. His hopeful expression formed into a worried one when he noticed her random disappearance.
"WHERE'S CASS?" Everyone frantically searched through the nearby trees and bushes, wondering where could the girl possibly be.
"PIKA! Pikachu~"
"What's that Pikachu?" The yellow mouse pokemon held a folded piece of paper in its mouth and gladly handed it over.
In scribbled writing, it told the group that Cassie had gone to the convenience store to buy a face mask and cold medicine.
"She said she's not feeling well and didn't want to get anyone else sick. Guess we're going to the convenience store."
~~~~~
"Hmm, which should I get? Cheap, white ones or one expensive blue one that is 'better than a hazmat suit'?" Eevee gave a look alluding to the obvious and Cassie shrugged her shoulders.
She quickly tossed a pack of face masks, a bottle of cold medicine, and a packet of scrunchies into her basket.
"Vee?"
"My hair's been getting annoying. So, once this Meowth situation goes away, along with him, I'm gonna start tying up my hair into a ponytail to annoy me less." Eevee nodded in understanding. After the quick payment, Cassie slipped on a mask as she walked outside.
Once the sliding doors closed behind the brunette, the sun lighting up the ground beneath her was blocked and the air was cool. She looked up to see an unfamiliar sight.
"Um, hello?"
"NO!"
~~~~~
"Where is she? I thought we would meet her along the way." Serena questioned.
"Looking for this?" A haunting voice confronted the group, holding a woozy Cassie and sleeping Eevee. A giant Malamar was at the side of the cloaked figure and was using its psychic abilities to hold on the barely-conscious pair.
The cloaked figure let out a deep chuckle before throwing the girl into the arms of her first friend.
"CASS!" Ash let out as he held the drowsy girl in his arms. Her eyes fluttered open but they were still heavy. Her voice croaked as she asked about the situation.
Meanwhile, the hooded figure used the distraction they created to take the opportunity to command Malamar to pick up Pikachu and disappear.
"Wha... What happened?" The tired girl finally asked. The group panicked as they looked around to see no sign of the mysterious figure. Cassie started to sit up with Ash's help.
"I'm pretty sure that was Madame X," Clemont guessed as Ash held Cassie upright. "And she just took Pikachu and Eevee with her."
The drowsy girl rolled her eyes and leaned her head against the warmth of Ash's chest. She let out an exasperated sigh and it felt like she was exhausted.
"Why do they keep targeting us? What have we done that's so bad?"
Ash shook his head and rubbed Cassie's arm in an effort to calm her. Everyone decided to take few minutes to just sit and wallow for a bit. Ash lightly rocked the girl in his arms and her mind was put a bit at ease.
"I don't know... I really don't know..."
