EPILOGUE...THREE DAYS LATER


Jessie, James, and Meowth were crouching in the bushes. They heard the voices of Ash, Misty, and Brock getting closer. "Steady.... steady...." Meowth said softly. "Here they come...."

James looked at Jessie and smiled. "I missed this." he whispered.

Jessie smiled back. "Me too." she whispered back.

"Now!" Meowth hissed. He tossed a smoke bomb into the clearing, and the trio jumped into place as the smoke cloud spread out.

"Prepare for trouble!" Jessie said loudly.

"Make it double!" James said in reply.

As they recited the motto together once again, Ketchum and Company rolled their eyes and readied themselves for another battle. In the back of their minds, Jessie and James knew they probably wouldn't capture Pikachu today, tomorrow, or anytime soon, but it didn't matter.

All that mattered anymore was that they kept on trying.... together.
