The End of Team Rocket

3 Months Later

Butch's Point Of View

I was having dinner in the Team Rocket cafe when Cassidy came and told me that The Boss wished to see us. I nearly choked on my sandwich, The Boss hadn't spoken to us in person since the day we'd returned from 'killing' Jessie and James. This didn't sound good.

I quickly finished the rest of my sandwich and the two of us headed upstairs to The Boss's office. I knocked on the door and waited for The Boss to open the door. I glanced across at Cassidy, she was looking at the floor shaking slightly. I reached out and stroked her back, she looked up at me and I smiled at her in what I hoped was a reassuring manner.

Then the door swung open and the two of us walked in to the office. The Boss was sitting behind his desk, the Persian sitting by his side. He was stroking it's head and it was purring slightly. He looked up at us when we walked in and smiled as the door shut behind us.

We walked forward until we were standing in front of his desk and I said, "You wanted to see us Boss?"

He nodded and said "Yes. It's about that little job you did for me 3 months ago." He smiled again and I knew we were doomed.

"What about it?" I asked softly. Usually I don't do the talking but Cassidy was too nervous to say anything so it was up to me, I just hoped my voice wouldn't get on The Boss's nerves. The Boss picked something of his desk and I when I saw what it was I really began to panic and I could see Cassidy was too, It was a white Team Rocket top, James top.

He held it up so we could see it and said "What I can't work out is if you shot them both in the chest is how this top has no holes in it or no blood on it care to tell me why? although I can guess."

When he had finished I glanced across at Cassidy, she had gone deathly pale, I was about to say that it had been my idea to let them go when Cassidy spoke.

"It was my idea," she said softly, "Butch didn't know anything about it, he thought I killed them too." I stared at her, what the hell did she think she was doing? Didn't she know that The Boss was probably, no, would kill her now. The Boss smiled again and said,

"Is that right?" Cassidy nodded and glared at me till I nodded too. I felt sick but what could I do?. The Boss nodded again and pushed a button on his desk, the door swung open and he motioned that I was dismissed. I started to walk towards the door, I could her Cassidy crying softly behind me and The Boss rummaging around in his desk, probably looking for his own gun and something inside me snapped.

I spun round on my heels and grabbed hold of Cassidy pulling her towards me, she looked at me in shock for a moment before finding her feet and the two of rushed to the door. We just made it out in time before the door slammed shut. I knew we had to get out of the building as quickly as possible, so I dragged Cassidy towards the fire escape and we started running down the 5 flights of stairs to the exit..

I could here The Boss's voice coming over the loud speakers, telling everyone there were a couple of traitors in the building and to shoot on sight. Cassidy was crying softly as we run and I wanted nothing more to stop and hold her, tell her everything would be OK but we couldn't spare the time to stop so we run on. A few minutes later we were almost at the ground floor, and I thanked god for all the hours we'd both spent in the gym keeping fit. We burst though the bottom doors into the blinding sunlight, hoping against hope that we had got out before anyone else had got down here. Luckily we were although I could hear people coming out of the main doors around the front of the building so I dragged Cassidy into the surrounding forest, we kept running until we couldn't run any more.

We crawled into some bushes and sat huddled together, trying to be as quite as possible. I could here other members walking around near where we were hiding, I held my breath and pulled Cassidy closer to me, hoping that they wouldn't find us. Suddenly the bushes were pulled back and I found myself starring into Meowth's face.

The cat pokemon grinned at me and I started feeling sick again, I knew he hated us for what he thinks we did to Jess and James. He looked behind him and I thought about running for a minute but I knew that in the state we were in we wouldn't get very far. He motioned his team mates over and in a couple of seconds Mondo and Cleo were looking down at us.

They looked shocked, I don't think they knew it was us they were looking for. Mondo glanced around as if he was looking to see if there was anyone else about before asking us what it was we'd done to have The Boss declare us traitors. I was shocked, why hadn't they capture us? Why hadn't they called out they'd found us? Cassidy had started to cry again, burying her head in my shoulder as I answered their question.

Meowth's mouth dropped open in surprise at what I said, Mondo just looked shocked like his whole world had crumbled around him. Cleo put her hand on his arm and said "We should help them."

I looked at her, why did she want to help us? It wasn't as if she even knew Jessie and James, but then maybe she was doing it for Mondo's sake. Mondo looked at her and nodded, before reaching out to us and helping us to our feet. Cassidy smiled thankfully at them and as they lead us though the forest away from the base I knew that for now things were going to be OK.
