Taken (PokeshippingV. Part 5)

I was waiting for that call Misty was suppose to give me... Misty! Freaking call me already! I didn't want to call her, because if I did, she'll yell at me for not letting her enjoy her trip. 
I tried to get my mind off of her. JUST FOR ONCE. 
So I went down to the coffee shop nearby.
"Hello, what can I get you, today?" the young lady who worked at the coffee shop asked me
"I'll take a tall upside-down caramel macchiato... Hot."
"Coming up!"
I waited for my coffee to come. Hmm... Maybe she's avoiding me... No. She wouldn't. Or would she? I was so stressed...
"Here's your drink, sir."
"Oh, thank you."
I stayed there for awhile on my computer, just scrolling through the cases that needed to be done, when something caught my eye. ITALY!?

Case #573

Missing Girls

Italy, Europe :) 

January 18, 2013                            

Alyza Janelle Lugura

Age: 16

Eye Color: Blue

DOB:  December 31, 1996 

Last Seen:

Last seen roaming the streets of Italy with a group of her friends.

Ugh... That thumping feeling in my heart again. There were 17 of the same cases in Italy. What the hell!? I better call Misty to make sure she's okay...
I raced home and got out my phone.

WITH MISTY AND DAWN...
"Misty, pass me my backpack, please."
"Okay, hold on a sec."
"Why were you so secretive with that boy in the Taxi?"
"I just don't want a guy stalking us on our trip."
"WHAT!? Have Ash's quotes finally gotten to you?"
"Well... Kinda." she mumbled as she gave Dawn her backpack 
"Misty, you gotta relax. Ash isn't your dad."
"Well... I'd take his advice simply because I don't have a dad."
"Oh yeah."
Misty heard her phone ring in her bag.
"Hold on a sec..."
She walked to the other side of the big hotel room.

"*Picks up phone* Hello?"
"Why didn't you call me?"
"Ugh... Ash... Please, let me ENJOY my trip."
"I'm sorry. I'm just a little worried."
"A LITTLE? A LITTLE WORRIED? Ash, you're overreacting..."
"I'm sorry if you feel that way."
Misty was in a little office on the other side of the hotel. She could see Dawn in the living room from there. She was so frustrated... Ash was getting on her nerves. Right when she was about to start yelling,something happened. A chill came over her as she saw three men walk in their room. She was too far for them to see her. But she could see them clearly.
"A-Ash..."
"Yeah?"
"There's someone here..."
"One of your friends?"
"N-No..."
WITH ASH...
My heart started racing more than before. And my hand clenched the phone. No... No this can't be happening... 
"Do you see who they are?"
"Uh... They're-"
I heard a gasp on the other line. Something happened. 
"Oh my god, they've got Dawn!" she cried from the other line
My heart stopped at that point. My only instinct was to run to the cabinets, and get out my recorder. I plugged it into my phone and pressed the record button. 
"Okay, stay calm, Misty. Now where are you?"
"The office on the other side of our hotel room."
"Okay. Find the nearest room and get under the bed; tell me when you're there."
"Okay..."
I could hear the fear in her voice. I've never heard her that scared in her life. EVER.
"I'm here."
"Okay... Now when they get in there..."
"What?"
"Try and look at them... If..."
"Ash?"
"If they find you, yell their description. Anything. Scars, tattoos, facial looks, anything..."
She let out a small sigh...
"O-Okay..." she whispered
"Wait... Shh..."
I heard footsteps coming to the door. And the louder they got, the more I couldn't breath.
"I hear them coming... Remember what I said..."
They came in talking a different language. Italian.
"Dov'e 'l'altra ragazza?(Where's the other girl?)"
"Non lo so, signore. Forse Nikko significava solo una ragazza ...(I don't know, sir. Maybe Nikko only meant one girl...)"
"NO! Nikko detto che ci sono due! Non una ... Ci manca la rossa ...(NO! Nikko said there were two! Not one... We're missing the redhead...)" he kept going...
"Ha detto che la rossa varrebbe la pena di circa 500.000 dollari. (He said the redhead is worth about $500,000.)"
I then started hearing whispers. What are they thinking?
I heard footsteps out of the door. But not all of them. I only heard two...
"O-Okay... I think-"
Right there, I heard Misty scream at the top of her lungs as I heard her being dragged out from under the bed. MISTY! I then heard her loud screams trying to describe their appearance...
"BROWN HAIR! O-ORANGE SUIT! ---"
That was all I heard before hearing a big smack or bang. I knew it wasn't a gun. I sounded nothing like it... It sounded like a smack against the wall. There was just silence. 
I heard the phone being picked up... 
The man holding the phone was breathing heavily into the phone. So I spoke. 
"I don't know who you are... I don't know what you want. If you want money, I can tell you I don't have it. But what I do have, is I highly trained set of skills that I have learned over the years of training. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let both of them go now, that'll be the end of it. If you don't... I will find you, and I WILL kill you..."
Silence. Complete silence. Say something, bastard! Still nothing. Just the same heavy breathing from before. I waited. That's when I heard it.
"Good luck."
Good luck? GOOD LUCK!? Are you f*cking kidding me!? Are you playing games with me you bitch! I had to calm down. I knew if I was gonna get both of the girls back, I was gonna have to control my anger. The man hung up and I quickly got out my Iphone and looked for people to call.
I called Brock for some help. 
"Brock?"
"Yeah?"
"I need you to translate something for me... I'll come over right now."
"Mmkay...."

                                 


Brock is my partner. He's 20, but the youngest of all the hackers. He's a computer GENIUS. He can hack into any computer... It's amazing how easy it is for him. It takes him about 5 minutes to hack into a highly secured computer. And about 2 minutes for a regular computer. If anyone's gonna help me, it's Brock. I have never seen him not excited to hack into a computer. Once he finds a computer in the evidence locker, he picks it up, and hacks it with the snap of a finger. I'm glad I got him as my partner. He's one of the youngest, and because he's a good friend. I would tell you about my other partner, but he doesn't come in till Part 6 or 7. So not yet.  ;)
You're probably thinking ''You're too young to be in the agency." Well, you're damn right. I am. 
You see, Brock, my other partner, and I are in a program. It's kinda for troubled teens... It's called JFTT. (Jobs For Troubled Teens)

Brock has been a hacker since he was 13. But he started out hacking in a bad way. He would hack into school computers and mess with people's grades. And even hack into the top secret police info. So after being in Juvenal Hall for a month, they took him into this program. And they gave him this job. Now I know how much this changes people. 
I'm in here for depression. When they found me, I still hadn't gotten over what happened to Iris. Nothing could cheer me up. I wouldn't come out of my room for weeks. I was basically starving myself. So my mom called JFTT for help. I think Misty suggested that. She would stay at my house everyday and sit on my bed. Just waiting for me to sit up and hug her. Kōtetsu finally convinced me to get out of my bed. That's when Misty became my closest friend. That's also when I got paired up with Brock. 

"Okay... I think I got it... But let me ask you something... Why are you asking this?" he asked when I walked through his door.
"That recording was an abduction that happened a couple of hours ago. My friends were taken..."
"Oh... Sorry 'bout that. I don't think you'll like what they say then..."
"Tell me."
"Well... Basically, they are selling your friends."
"What!?"
"HERE! I FOUND THE ORGANIZATION! There is only one organization like this in Italy, so it was pretty easy to find."
"Just tell me."
"It says, 'This is an organization based on which they sell girls at the age of 13 to 20. Once they have captured or abducted a young girl, they force them into drugs and make them prostitutes. Prices reach up to $50,000..."
"...What is the organization called?"
"Uh... Team Rocket."
"WHAT!?"

I lunged my body toward the computer taking a close look at it.
That symbol! The 'R'! The symbol that has been in my head this whole time... Rocket.


They sell girls... Why would any person do that? I clenched my fist and let out a frustrated scream. I slammed my fist on the table and then looked down at the ground. I didn't want him to see my eyes tearing up. But I think he saw it already.
"Ash... Who is this person that they took?"
"Misty... My Best Friend... And my other friend Dawn"
"Ash... I'm sorry."
"I'm gonna get both of them back."
"Aren't you gonna need help?"
"If I need help, I'll just call Gary."
"Oh yeah... He lives in Italy."
I grabbed my backpack... Determined to get to the airport as fast as I could, I rushed out the door. 
Those idiots think they can get away from me? 
I wasn't gonna let them take Misty or Dawn. Not only did they take a really good friend from mine... They took the love of my life... <3

Taken (PokeshippingV. Part 4)

I couldn't sleep that night. I was too nervous. Not about Misty, but about the dreams I was having. They were constant...
Every time I'd close my eyes, I would see this sign with the 'R' on it. So I stayed up til I fell asleep.
"Do you think Misty's mad?" I whispered to my sleeping Pikachu
"I hope not..." I mumbled, "Maybe one day she'll realize how important she is to me."
I started to feel my eyes closing; followed by a yawn.
"Maybe..."
I had finally closed my eyes. I didn't think about anything at that point. I just... Slept.
That's actually a BIG accomplishment for me... I haven't actually slept in a while. There was too much stuff I needed to take care of. There was the flight, the case I needed to do in Unova, and I got an undercover mission I need to do pretty soon. Just tiring...
I gotta break it to you, I'm not the same. I'm not the happy-go-lucky kid you saw on TV. Not anymore. 
Ever since that day... I haven't been the same. What day, you ask? Well... It started in Unova.


My friend Iris and I were walking together to the Pokemon Center. I was really into her. Like REALLY... Just not as much as... You know what, nevermind (HINT). Anyways, I was walking with her, and suddenly, there was a loud noise in the forest. Iris and I went to investigate. When I saw what it was, I didn't expect to find someone behind us. 
It was so quick. I didn't even see it happen...
All I heard was a loud gunshot, then seconds later, I saw Iris on the ground with blood surrounding her. I was scared. Vulnerable. Nothing but a 15 year old boy in the woods with a dead friend laying next to him. Pikachu helped me get out of there... But Iris paid the price for it, and that thought stuck with me until Kōtetsu took me in. It still sticks with me today; just not as much as before. 

Misty helped me get over it, but that's another reason why I'm so overprotective with Misty. She's my Best Friend... I know I have Gary, Max, and May, but nothing can replace my memory of meeting her. If something happened to her, I would probably have no other person I could trust. 
She might be the scariest person you meet at first, but when you get to know her like I do, she'll probably turn out to be your closest friend... 
She's sweet, kind, and loves to smack arrogant people around. 
Hah! That's just how she is. Bipolar. Once she's annoyed, she'll smack the hell out of you... 

And her name fits her so well. Misty... She's like rain...
When she comes, she ruins your life. You're annoyed.
But when she's gone, you wish you could get drenched in rain water on a hot day. Have you ever had that feeling? Maybe some feel the same, but I definitely do... 

My mind started to ponder again. Hmm... I have an idea... I thought. But let's wait till morning...
Silent, yet peaceful... SLEEP. Finally... That moment of a day that lets you regenerate and not think about what happened throughout the day. Just. SLEEP. 

THE NEXT DAY... 
Well, the sleep didn't last till I had to wake up to a new day. I still was grateful for one day of sleep though. Right when I woke up, I called Misty.
"Ugh... Ash, what is it?"
"Go to my house... There's something on my porch I think you should take with you..."
"... Okay... I'll be on my way. Bye."
"Bye."

After that, I called my mom.
"Hello? Ash?"
"Mom, I need you to do something for me... If you're not busy."
"Of course, dear!"
"I need you to get my old hat that I used in the Indigo League and put it on my porch."
"Why?"
"It's for Misty. I wanted to give it to her..."
"I think Misty would really appreciate that... I'll do that right away, dear."
"Thanks, I gotta go now." 
"Okay... Bye, Ash!"
"Bye."
I hung up the phone and ran down the stairs of the Marriott hotel. As you know, the Marriott hotel is a REALLY big hotel. So you'd probably be thinking, "How can he afford that sh*t?" 
Just another advantage of working as an agent... They pay good money...
So anyway, I got downstairs and to the lobby, ate breakfast, and got outside. I was still waiting for that call from Misty. I wanted her to have my hat. It was really special to me before, but it's useless now. That's when I finally got a call...

"Uh... Misty?"
"Yeah... It's me."
"Oh. Did you see what I have for you?"
"*Giggles* Yeah, I love it."
"I just wanted you to have it for your trip."
"Thank you, Ash. I've always wanted your hat..."
"I had that feeling. You'd always stare at it."
"That's not what I was staring at..." she mumbled under her breath
"What?" 
"Nothing!" 
"*Laughs* Misty, you're weird.."
"You think I'M weird?" she laughed
"Yes, yes I do."
"Anyway, I'll call you when I get to Italy, okay?"
"Okay... See you later..."

I hung up feeling a lot better. But still... Very nervous... She's 17! Why is she even going? I know she loves to travel and all... But why? I thought. Italy is pretty far... I don't want anything to happen to both Dawn and Misty. I just hope they both stay safe... 

THAT NIGHT...

She left... She got on the plane, and left... I thought as I looked at the flying planes from the window. I watched them move slowly from one side of the window, to the other side. She promised that she would call me when she got there... I wonder what she is doing...

WITH MISTY AND DAWN...

"Oh my gosh! We're here!"
"I know! So excited!" Dawn yelled as they jumped up and down
"HEY!" someone yelled from afar
As the person walked up, the two realized that it was a young handsome man holding a phone very similar to Misty's. 
"You forgot something..." he said with an alluring french accent
"Oh! Thank you..."
"No problem. My name is Nikko by the way..."
"Hi! It's so nice to meet you!" Dawn yelled 
"Cabs are expensive here. Do you want to share a cab?"
"Uh... Well I-"
"Of course!" Dawn yelled really fast, "But first, can you take a picture of my friend and I?"
"Sure."



After the picture, they made there way to a cab. Misty couldn't help but think about what Ash had said. "Just... Stay safe..." Those words rung in her ears... All the way to the hotel. 
"So is this where you guys are staying?" Nikko said, interrupting Misty's thoughts.
"Uh... Yeah."
"Yeah, so if you wanted to come over sometime you'll-"
"Dawn!" Misty shouted angrily 
"It's okay... I guess I'll see you girls around then."
"Okay bye!"
"Bye..." 
When he closed the door to the cab, he brought out his phone and called a man.
"Trova qualsiasi?? (Find any?)" the man asked on the other line of the phone
"Due di essi. Una rossa e una bruna. Io penso che vi piacciano. (Two of them. A redhead, and a blunette. I'll think you'll like them.)" 

TO BE CONTINUED... 
(Sorry this took SOO long. WRITERS BLOCK. And there has been a lot of stuff I needed to do... :| So don't yell at me...

Taken (PokeshippingV. Part 3)

I had a dream that night. A dream about this specific team. It was weird... But it bothered me... 
It was a sign that kept popping in my head. R. It had the letter R on it. It definitely kept me up all night...  

Even though it really bothered me that night, I had totally forgotten about it in the morning. I had gotten on my regular clothes on and headed out the door. I was still a little nervous about what I was gonna tell Misty. I still didn't know if there was a case I needed to do, but of course I had to run my mouth and jinx it again. 
WOOP-DEE-FREAKING-DOO... 
Right when I had started thinking about that, I got a call from the freaking agency...
"DAMMIT!" I yelled while walking on the road to Cerulean
"PIKA!?" Pikachu added
"Well, I kinda had a feeling this would happen..."
"Pika pi..." 
"Should we tell her now?"
"PI!"
"Yeah, you're right..." I mumbled not noticing the person in front of me
"You know how to speak Pikachu?" Misty yelled from afar
"Huh? Oh! Uh... Hi, Misty!" I yelled
"Haha! Can you really understand Pikachu?"
"Sometimes... I take a guess on what he says most of the time."
"Oh my gosh, Ash. You're such a retard..." she laughed
"So where did you come from?"
"Oh. I was just taking an early walk instead of taking an early morning swim. The water's too cold."
"Oh..." 
"You okay?"
"Uh... No actually. I need to tell you something. And PLEASE don't hate me."
"...W-What?"
" *Sigh* I can't go with you to Italy..."
"... I kinda figured your stupid ass job would ruin everything..."
"I'm really sorry. I had just talked to them; I have to go to Unova ASAP."
"I wish that we were in the old days. When we were traveling and battling, getting badges, entering the leagues, ...Less violence..."
"I agree."
She came closer and fell in my arms. Her eyes were swelling up; I could see it. I put my arms around her and we just stayed there for a second. She started crying. It hurt me. 
I started rubbing her head. You're not the only one that wants everything back to normal, Misty. I thought. By that time, I had messed up her hair, but she didn't care. She just started hugging me tighter. 
I heard my phone vibrate in my pocket; I knew it was Kōtetsu...
"Misty, I think it's time for me to go."
"...Okay..."
 I heard the sadness in her voice. I couldn't leave her like this.
"You know what? I'll walk you back to the Gym. Okay?"
She gave me a small smirk.
"Okay."
We walked back really slowly. By that time, my phone was nearly jumping out of my pocket. I didn't care. If they want me to come, they're gonna have to wait. 
There was complete silence. Just... Silence. 
"So..." I murmured
"So... What?" 
"Are you going to ask Dawn to go with you to Italy?"
"I guess... Her mom already said yes."
"Just..."
"Just, what?"
"Be careful out there, okay?"
"Okay." she said sarcastically 
By that time, we had made it to the Gym, and that meant I had to leave before Kōtetsu fires me... Maybe I should let him fire me... Just so I could be free. But... I need money. I said to myself. He probably wouldn't do that to me anyway; unless I wanted him to. 
"Well... Bye." she said while putting her arms behind her back and standing on the tips of her toes like she was waiting for something.
"Uh... You waiting for me to do something?"
"Ugh... Nevermind... Bye."
When we said goodbye, I immediately got out my phone. 7 missed calls.
"WHAT!?" I yelled through the phone
"Doko ni iru no? (Where are you?)"
"Watashi wa jūji ni kūkō ni narudeshou. (I'll be at the airport at ten o'clock.)" 
"Ōkē. Anata no o shiri o isoide! (Okay. Hurry your ass up!)"
I hung up. I couldn't focus on at the time; I knew I needed to get to the airport.
But I couldn't help but worry about her safety. She's my Best Friend, why can't a guy worry about his Best Friend? I knew she was going with Dawn, but that made me even more worried. Now I have to worry about my Best Friend AND my friend I traveled with in Sinnoh. 
I kept thinking about it on my way to the airport, on the plane, even when the plane landed in Unova. Something tells me my stupid life is gonna take a turn for the worst... I said to myself.
I wanted to make sure she was okay with everything. And by that time, it was 10:24 at night, but I still called.
"What?" 
"Hi... I just wanted to make sure you were okay..."
"Ash, I'm not even there yet. I'm still at home, my flight takes off tomorrow."
"Oh... Well, just be careful while you're there."
"Fine..." she sternly said, "I need to pack. I'll see you when I get back..."
"Bye."
"Bye."
...

(PS. I have to change up the story simply because I wanna make it my own. I don't want to make it the exact same thing. It's a boy/girl love story. Not a father/daughter relationship story. Duh...) 

Taken (PokeshippingV. Part 2)

Well, it took me about 3 hours to get back to Misty's place. On my way there, I couldn't help but to realize that I never gave her a gift. Oh carp! I looked in my review mirror and saw her present sitting in the back seat. At least I know I can give it to her when I get to the Gym. I made my way back eagerly trying to make it on time. When I got there, I ran out, got her present, and walked up to the door. I was still reconsidering my gift. It was really small, it wasn't that much, but it was expensive.
My heart started to pound as the door opened. Why the hell am I freaking out? As the door opened, I realized it wasn't Misty; it was Daisy.
"Uh... Hi. Is Misty still here?"
"Yeah. I think she's like... In her room or something." she said
I talked with Misty's older sister for about 2 minutes. I have no Idea why, but I did. After all the talk, I walked upstairs to the bedrooms. My heart was pounding more than ever. I had no earthly idea why I was even that nervous. She's my Best Friend, not my worst enemy. Okay, it's just because of my gift. It's expensive and I don't want her to yell at me for getting her a crappy gift. I made it to the door, there was complete silence inside. 
Until I heard Misty and Dawn's voice.
"I think Ash needs to reconsider his job."
"Misty, he needs money. Being a Pokemon Trainer won't do that anymore..." 
"I know, but at least have time for your friends."
"I think he loves what he does."
"Yeah, well I don't see the passion in him."
"What?"
"Well, when he got his call at my party, he looked pissed and irritated."
"Simply because he wasn't able to stay. Everyone gets irritated with their jobs sometimes."
"That's bull crap..."
I started to feel even more and more bad. I wanted to walk away after I heard that, but I wanted to show her how much I cared for her. So I knocked on the door.
"Come in..."
I slowly opened the door showing my pale face to them. I tried faking a smile, but that didn't work. I didn't show any emotions; I wasn't sad, irritated, etc. Just... strait faced.
"H-Hi..."
"Oh... Hi, Ash." she mumbled
"I just wanted to give you your present."
"Oh! Thank you, Ash." she said
There was an awkward silence. 
"You heard. Didn't you?"
"Yeah... Kinda. But I respect it; I know my job gets in the way." I stated
She nodded and looked down. So I tried to cheer her up.
"Hey, come on. I have a cupcake for you..." I said trying to seduce her
"Haha! Okay."
"Oh. Misty, I got a text from my mom. I need to go." Dawn interrupted
"Okay, make sure your mom says yes about the trip!"
"What?"
"Oh... Nothing you need to know."
"Girl talk?"
"I guess you can call it that... I'll tell you later."
We walked into the kitchen just having small talk. Kinda like 'How was the party' etc...
When we said goodbye to Dawn, I took the cupcake and put a birthday candle on top of it. I sat it down on the table and lit the candle with a lighter. My heart immediately  stopped pounding. The whole moment made me feel like I was younger. A Pokemon Trainer. The oblivious to love kind of kid that always trained. The good old days...
"Make a wish, Misty."
"Okay..." she said with a soft voice
She slowly closed her eyes and pondered. After she made her decision, she slowly inhaled and blew out the candle. 
"What was your wish?"
"Can't tell you." she said while scooping frosting off the cupcake with her finger.
I smiled. "Oh really?"
''*Laughs* Yeah."
"Fine." I said trying to make her laugh, "So you wan't your present?"
"YES!!!"
I grabbed the small box out of my jacket pocket and put it in her hands. She smiled when she saw the words "KAY Jewelers" on it. She opened the box and saw a Topaz Sea Star necklace inside. She looked at me and gave me the biggest smile. I was relieved. Phew... She actually likes it. I looked back in response with a reassuring smile, that made her think twice about what she had said earlier.
She gave me a big hug. I couldn't help but notice how much taller I was than her. I could put my chin on the top of her head if I wanted to. I remember when she was taller than me.  
Hah! Looks like I grew while you shrunk. 
"Thank you, Ash." she said interrupting my thought
"You're welcome..."
There was a moment of silence between us. All we did was just look at each other. It kinda got me nervous, but Misty broke the silence before I could.
"Ash, can I ask you something?"
"Yeah."
"Well, I got plane tickets to Italy as one of my presents and-"
"What!?" 
"What's wrong?"
"You're going to Italy?"
My heart started to pound again. This time, ten times harder. 
"Yeah, and I wanted to know if you wanted to come with me."
"Oh... Uh. Yeah! Sure!"
"It's gonna super fun! Especially for you, Pikachu. I heard they have a Pokemon Spa there." she said while rubbing Pikachu's head.
I was relieved that she asked me to go with her. Not because I've always wanted to go, but because I'd hate to see anything happen to her. 
At least I'll be there to make sure she's okay... I just hope there are no stupid ass cases I have to do while I'm there... 
"Is that what you wanted to tell Dawn's mom about?"
"Yeah, I wanted Dawn to go if you didn't."
"Oh... Why do you think I wouldn't go?"
"Your job..."
"Oh yeah." I murmured, "I should go now... I need to get some stuff to get done in the morning..."
"Oh. Okay. I guess I'll see you later than."
"Y-Yeah."
I talked with her for another minute and then finally said goodbye. I felt...Weird. I don't know why, but I just did. There was a nerve in my side that aggravated me all day, and it was getting worse. It was the feeling of being nervous that made it so painful. Something was telling me that my job was gonna screw everything up again; I did NOT want that to happen. So I called my boss.
"Hello?"
"It's Ash Ketchum; I need to talk to Mr. Kōtetsu."
"Right away, sir."
I waited...
"Nandesuka? (What?)"
"Anata wa, watashi ni sensei ga yasumi o ataeru koto ga dekimasu ka?(Can you give me a week off, sir?)" 
"Uwa... Watashi wa sō wa omoimasen... Kore wa, nani ga okoru ka ni izon shimasu. Wareware wa jūyōna kēsu o tsukatte iru nodeareba, watashitachi wa watashitachi to sore ni torikumu tame ni, dekirudakehayaku Unova ni iku koto ga hitsuyō ni narudeshou. (Ugh... I don't think so... It depends on what happens. If we're on an important case, we'll need you to go to Unova as soon as possible to work on it with us.)"
I hung up feeling worse than ever. Oh no... I NEED to go with her. Or she'll think that my job is more important than she is. I CAN'T have her think that...

Mr. Kōtetsu is my boss. He knows English, but to keep his identity, he speaks Japanese.  He does everything and anything he can to solve a case. He might seem older, but he's really not. He's 27. He's more like my friend than my boss. He's crazy, dramatic, funny, and he doesn't treat us bad like any other bitchy boss would. And he gets drunk... A LOT. He just has a lot of problems. Sometimes, I have no idea why he even got hired, but I probably would have been pissed if they fired him. So I don't think like that...







Here's a tip...
Don't get close to him if he has a gun.
He loves shooting his revolver. 
And when he get's the chance, he'll take it. 
I gotta break it to you, he is an AWESOME shooter though. 
He can shoot anything at any range. He taught me everything he knew. 
Maybe that's why he was hired... 






He's been really serious lately... 
I think it's because there's been lots of shootings. And they're all involved in two gangs; Team Magma and Team Aqua. 95% of them were homicides, while 5% of them were suicides. Even the suicides were Aqua and Magma members. We think it's because of the constant bickering between the two groups, but we need to go under cover if we're gonna get the truth. 
Jesus. A lot of crap's going on... I just hope nothings going on in this week that I'm with Misty...    

Taken (PokeshippingV. Part 1)

17. She was finally 17 I thought. I was a couple months older than her, but of course girls are the ones with the BIG parties. Not to mention she was having her party at her gym. It's big. Wouldn't you be pissed if you had few people in a huge place like the Cerulean Gym? She was happy though; she's not the type of girl to throw a fit because no one acknowledges her. She is one hell of a puncher though... 
She's my Best Friend; we've been through everything together. I kinda felt bad knowing that I wouldn't see her that much anymore. My job as an agent is moving me to Unova in a couple of days. I made them wait because I NEEDED to go to her party. I would have felt really bad if I didn't go.
It was a massive party of course. Everyone was in the pool just having fun. I sat next to the door like the security guard just watching. I don't think Misty liked that, but I didn't want anything to happen on her 17th birthday party. Just one of my worries...
Dammit, I got another call from the agency.. I yelled at myself as I looked at my phone. 
I hated leaving her on her birthday; I didn't want to, but I had to...
I started leaving when I heard someone calling me.
It was Misty.

"Where are you going? You're not leaving, right?"
I looked her then looked down. I was becoming more and more distant from her; and she knew it.
"Are you?" she asked even though she knew the answer.
"Mist, I'm sorry. I got another call, I need to go."
"Ash..."
"I... I promise I'll make it up to you. I promise."
"No no... It's okay. I know your job means a lot to you." she mumbled
"I gotta go now. I'll be back; tonight at... 10 o'clock. Okay?"
"Okay."
I hugged her then walked away. I knew that she wasn't okay with it. I just knew. But my stupid job keeps my from showing her how much I care about her. I enjoy it sometimes. It teaches me self-defense, how to use a gun, and a lot more, but sometimes... IT PISSES ME OFF.
My phone rang again. I didn't want to answer it, but I knew I had to.
"Satoshi, anata wa doko ni iru no? (Ash, where are you?)" the guy on the other line asked
"Watashi wa sugu ni soko ni iru. Sore wa 10-bu hodo watashi o toru yo. Daijōbudesuka? (I'll be there soon. It'll take me about ten minutes. Okay?)" 
I hung up and made my way to the front door. I really felt bad about leaving on Misty's birthday, but my job doesn't have a schedule. I'm sorry Misty... I said to myself while watching her walk over to her friends with a disappointed face. 
Sometimes I really hate my job. I have a love/hate relationship with it. 
I love it simply because it pays well. Not to mention the thrill in having to go undercover and all that...
And I hate the job because it keeps me away from my friends... And it definitely did that today. I'm officially... PISSED. I just wish everything was normal again; when I was a trainer, and when I fought Team Rocket all the time. Hah! Maybe that isn't normal, but it's my way of being normal. I just hoped things would get better, but of course everything I say is always turned around and it smacks me in the face. HARD. Damn, what the hell is wrong with my life... 

NEVERMIND!

Uh.... CHANGE OF PLANS!!!

Sorry to do this to you guys... But I'm cancelling the new story "This Complicated Life" for many reasons. First of all, I'm having writers block with it, and I have many ideas in my notebook that I could do. I was thinking of doing a Pokeshipping version of Taken. If you haven't seen the first one, you'll find out about it from this story. I LOVE IT. I'm just switching to Pokeshipping instead of a father/daughter relationship.  
Or I was also thinking about doing a mash-up with my two favorite anime shows. 

 Highschool of the Dead.   

And obviously Pokemon. ;)




I had really good ideas, but I think I might start the Taken series before that one. I'll continue "This Complicated Life" when I get good ideas for it. 
ps.
I'm doing the mash up because Takashi from Highschool of the Dead and Ash would make a great team. ;3
So look forward to that! 
Oh crap... It's hecka late. I need to go to bed. Peace! ^3^

BYE!!!!! GTFO! If you know what it means. ;3        ^3^          :)        o.O
