"Ash, it's beautiful!" said Misty in suprise. Ash and Misty had finally learned to like each other, and since Ash won the Earth Badge, decided to spend a week in Arctic City to celebrate, and partially because he wanted to take Misty out. Brock also went along. The light displays were beautiful, and were in shapes like Santas, Pokemon, and other Christmas symbols.

"Yep! It sure is great! Us celebrating Christmas, me with all 8 badges, I've earned back Charizards respect, and no Team Rocket!" Ash was positive that Team Rocket was gone, and he earned Charizard's respect back by taking a nasty blow in a battle in a Trainer/Pokemon battle when fighting a masked gangster who fought with more than his pokemon....

"We have enough money for hotel, gifts, food, a Christmas tree with decorations, and we'll still have money to spare!" Brock said as he calculated the cost. "By the way, when dont you go invite your mom over here for Christmas?"

Ash couldn't think of a good reason not to. "O.K! Let's find a hotel, then I'll go call my mom and get some sleep. I figure It's the least I can do scince I won't be home for Christmas!' So they trio went off to find a hotel.

"One more thing Ash, what are we going to do about a Christmas tree, gifts, and all that other stuff?" Misty asked Ash.

"Relax Misty!" said Ash in a carefree voice. "It's pretty late, so we'll get to it tomorrow!"

Meanwhile, James continued to walk in the icy weather. His Weezing spat acid in front of him to burn a path through the thick snow. Eventually, Weezing got so cold that he started to spit out frozen sludge. James then returned him to his pokeball. After about half an hour longer, he saw a huge brightly colored sign reading: Welcome to Arctic City! James galnced at it, then moved on. James knew the evil deed he comitted might have saved Team Rocket, but he felt a great doubt. He had actually killed someone. No. he thought to himself. It was either them or you. You remember waht the boss does to those who defy him. James had every right to be afraid of that. Team Rocket had lost one of their best men, William Blair because of that. He was asked to assassinate a detective who was on their trail and could arrest the entire team for a mass robbery. He refused to comply. His punishment was extreme. He was shot and his body burnt in an attempt to cover up evidence of the horrid crime. He was used as an example to all those who all those who dared to defy Giovanni. James felt a chill shoot up his spine. Somewhat due to the cold, some in reflection of his foul act, and the rest in just remembring what the punishment for defiance was. He continued to trudge through the snow, for many long hours.

"Something's wrong." said Jessie in concern at around 10:30PM in the area in which Team Rocket was having their party. "I know James decided to walk, but it's been three hours, which is twice as long as it should take."

"Relax!" said Meowth obviously not giving a care about James. "If that chump decided to walk and be a stiff, that's his problem!"

Jessie angrily knocked Meowth off the table he was on. "How would you like it if you were out there freezing to death and we just left you there to suffer?" Jessie stormed out before giving Meowth time to respond, grabbed her coat, asked if she could borrow the boss' snowmobile, grabbed a helmet, and left.

"Hey, who are you guys?" asked James as he saw a pair of three men. Each of them looked inhuman in their own manner. One was very muscular, one had grey hair, the other had the eyes of a Charmeleon, and all of their eyes were red.

"Don't you remember, we're the guys you wanted to kill!" said the one with the Charmeleon eyes.

"Just your basic DNA swap." said Incinerator in a voice as icy as the weather. "Long story made short," the three commanders began to mutate, and emerged in their horrid, Human/Pokemon forms. James was now looking at a demon, Charmeleon-man, and a very hairy muscular man. "You're gonna die!" Just then, a Charizard, Arcanine, and Charmeleon came in from the back. Each of them mounted the one they were most like. The Charizard took to the air, while the others began to pursue form the ground. The Infernos withdrew their firey weapons, and gave chase. He couldn't believe it. He had went to Arctic city for a Team Rocket Christmas party, and was now being hunted down by the Inferno leaders. Their firey weapons melted the snow around him, as he trudged through with all his might. He then got an idea. He threw a pokeball, and out popped Weezing! He threw a rope around him, and started to be pulled at amazing speed. "Don't let that punk get away! Fry him!" screamed the now mutated Inferno leader. Weezing fired some sludge backwards, and hit the Arcanine, causing him and his rider to hit a rock. One down, two to go! James thought. Just then, pulling up in a snowmobile, was Jessie. He never thought he'd be happy to see her!

"Get in!" Jessie ordered as James hurriedly climbed in. Just then, the Charmeleon/Human freak jumped into the snowmobile, brandishing a small pistol.

"My boss always liked a good chase!" he said in a voice as cold as the weather as he raised the gun to Jessie's head. "Now, this ride officially has no brakes!"
