Everfree Forest

(Tomas point of view)

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

I groaned, we had only just been released a few days and we already got blasted of, no matter how many times we blast of I could never get used to it, the pain, the crash, and the yelling between my sister and Meowth, then again we only ever blasted of four times.

"Mime~a~mime~"

I look right behind me and saw a good portion of my team injured, or unconscious, the only ones who are okay enough to walk are Carnivine, Mime Jr., and Yamask. It always hurts me when I see my team in such a condition.  

I got out Gyardos, Cacnea, and Amoongus's pokeballs. "Get some rest you guys." A beam of red energy shoot towards them as they retreated back to their balls. I looked back the other three. "You guys okay?" The other three nodded, I took out their pokeballs, but they refused to go inside. "*Sigh*" I looked around for any sign of my sister or Meowth. "Great, looks like we've gotten separated again." Luckily we were trained for these type of situations, the two of us will send out a Pokémon that can fly and sent it out to scout the area until we find each other.

"Yamask." The small ghost floated a bit closer when it heard it's name. "Go scout the area, come back to me when you find something." The small ghost nodded and flew up to search the area.

"Carnivine, Mime Jr. lets go." Mime Jr. ran up and jumped up my arms, Carnivine just walked up to me looking a bit down. "Hey Carnivine, its okay we'll get them next time." Carnivine gave a weak smile as it jumped up and started to chomp on my head (Not enough to make it hurt though.) "Hehe, alright let's go!"

Canterlot Castle

The first thing Celestia heard as the world slowly returned to her was a faint beeping. She also heard some snoring. As soon as she got her vision back, the first thing she saw was Luna sleeping right next to the bed.

"Lu-Luna?" asked Celestia in a weak voice. Luna's head immediately shot up at the sound of Celestia's voice. Luna then suddenly hugged her almost immediately with tears in her eyes.

"Tia your okay!" Luna said, almost nearly shouting.

"Luna...Air...I need...Air" asked Celestia. Luna dropped Celestia and looked away sheepishly.

"Princess?"

Celestia looked up and gasp, for some reason, Pinkie and Fluttershy looked as fine as ever while Twilight had a bandage around her forehead and horn, Dash's wing was completely wrapped up, Applejack looked fine despite the bruises, Rarity had her entire right rear leg wrapped up

"Guess Team Rocket did a number on all of us. I'm sorry for all this." said Celestia. However, it was Rainbow Dash who spoke up first.

"Hey, its all right princess! My wing maybe broken, but I'll make sure I get back into the air in no time!" said Dash. The others gave Celestia a confident nod, which seemed to raise her confidence as she gave them a smile.

"Yeah...next time, Team Rocket better watch out. Because next time, I'm going to make them wish that they never messed with us!" said Rainbow as she raised her arm high into the air, with everyone doing the same.

Celestia smiled, but the smile quickly change to a frown.

"Princess?"

Celestia looked up and saw her student looking at her concerned. "*Sigh* Twilight there is something I have to tell you about Team Rocket."

Everfree Forest

"*Growl*"

"Mime~a~mime."

  Tomas stared at the creature in front of him in fear, the creature resembles that of a crocodile, but its hide is covered in rocks and rock spires. "Don't worry Mime Jr. I'm sure your big brother Carnivine can handle it."

Carnivine looked back in shock. "CARNIVINE!!!"

Tomas looked at Carnivine clearly panicking. "What!? You don't expect me to fight it do you!?"

Carnivine glared at Tomas "Car! Car! Carnivine!"

Tomas face palmed. "Look, would it make you feel better if I got out some help." Carnivine nodded. "*Groan* Fine." I looked through my pockets, looking for a Pokémon that hasn't already fainted from our last battle, so far only 2 come to mind. "Alright Go! Inkay!"

In a burst of light, came out a small squid like creature. "Inkay!" It looked around it's new surroundings, until its eyes settled at the large Cragadile. "Inkay..." It's eyes widened as it let out a little ink.

"Hey! Inkay, do mind helping Carnivine out fighting the Cragadile."

Inkay turned around shocked. "Inkay!?" The Inkay shook his head 'no', while saying it's name over and over.

"Great! Since I can't understand you, I'm going to assume that's a yes!"

Inkay fumed, but it clearly understood it didn't have a choice in the matter. "Inkay."

The Inkay flew closer to Carnivine who was giving her a look of pity."[Hey, sorry for dragging you into this mess, I didn't want to handle this thing myself.]"

Inkay turned back towards Tomas leaving him one last glare."[*Sigh* I know, just wish he didn't have to a dick about it, Gryados is much more stronger than the both of us.]"

The Cragadile growled. "[Are you two done talking yet, I'd like to have my dinner now!]"

The two Pokémon sighed in defeat, and got ready.

"Inkay Psybeam, Carnivine Bullet Seed." Both Pokémon sent out their respective attacks, the Cragadile, not expecting this sort of attacks flinch in surprise.

"Inkay, Tackle!" The Inkay turned upside down and launched himself towards the large animal, knocking him of balance.

"Carnivine, use Vine Whip." Carnivine jumped high in the air, and used his vines to wrap around the Cragadile's body. "Now toss him back to where he came from." Carnivine then using all of his power toss the Cragadile back a few feet.

Both Carnivine and Inkay landed near him. "[Heh, give up?]"

The Cragadile sensing that he was out matched tried to make a run for it.

"[Oh no you don't!" Inkay turned upside down charging a powerful attack. "[This is for interrupting my nap!]" Inkay launched the attack straight at him, causing him to fly of to the distance.

"[Glad that's over.]"

Tomas walked up to the two. "Great job you guys, well now that that's over let's~a~go!"

Carnivine looked up towards Inkay. "[How long do you think he can survive without us.]"

Inkay shrugged. "[I give it around two days, before something eats him.]"

Carnivine nodded agreeing with Inkay, as the two started following Tomas deeper into the forest, unaware of a shadowy ball watching them.

"Tomas? You're free?" The ball moved closer to them, but far enough to not be seen. "OH! it is you! My old friend free once more, hahaha." The ball floated out of the shadows, revealing a purple orb with two large eyes, purple smoke all around his body. "Wait for me old chum!"
