Later that night Shino and Karen make their way back to the hotel and collapse on the bed. The following morning Ash and Gary get up and head over to the gym by themselves. "Why doesn't she like me? I am rich. I'm good looking. What does he have that I don't? Why can't she fall for me?" Gary says out loud. Ash rolls his eyes and says "Maybe because you are an ass?" under his breath. They walk over to the gym and get in line. Gary goes in first and returns only a few minutes later. Ash goes in next and is met by Inferno. "So you are the famous Ash Ketchum of Pallet. I am Inferno of Brimstone. It is an honor to fight someone of your caliber. Please don't disappoint me. I have high hopes for this match." He says releasing a Slugma. Ash releases Ferialgtr and the match begins. "This should be a quick match." Ash says to himself. Ferialgtr cautiously looks around at the few scatted boulders. He investigates each one while Slugma slowly makes his way towards him. "Just attack it." Ash says. Ferialgtr flips Ash off. "Something isn't right." Ferialgtr replies. Inferno grins and nods at Slugma who takes off like a bullet towards Ferialgtr. Ferialgtr dives out of the way as Slugma smashes into the boulder and then oozes out of the hole. Slugma reforms himself as Ferialgtr checked himself over. "HYDROPUMP!!!" Ash yelled. Ferialgtr did as he was told and Slugma shot straight up the beam of water blew out the back of Ferialgtr's head. He dropped to his knees and then fell onto his face. Slugma sat on a boulder grinning at Ash who was shocked at what had just happened. "See what happens when you rush into things. Had you taken your time you could of pulled out a victory. Instead your pokemon died and you are to blame. Come back tomorrow if you want a rematch." Inferno says. Ash and Gary walk back in complete silence. Neither of them aware of the Agents or Team Rocket members following them. They flopped down on the couch at the Pokecenter and stared off into space. Each of them had been dealt a devastating loss today. Ash was still trying to figure out how a small ball of lava shot through the powerful beam of water and out the back of Ferialgtr's head. Gary had more then just figuring out how he had lost to Slugma as well. He was more interested in how he could win Karen from Shino. Ash was the first one to get up and leave. He went off to a nearby park and caught some pokemon. Then went to Shino's trailer to train them properly. Gary on the other hand never moved all day. Then it hit him. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." He said to himself jumping up and running outside. All throughout the night Ash trained his new pokemon. Then slept till late afternoon. When he awoke he went back to training. Gary spent the entire day putting his new plan into action. Neither of them even bothered to go for their rematch. The thought never even crossed Gary's mind. He was too engrossed in his plan to win Karen. Ash was training so he could crush Inferno's Slugma. Around midnight or so Ash called it a night and went to bed. Gary sat in the hotel lobby waiting for Shino to come downstairs but to no avail. Shino and Karen were still in bed sleeping. At 7 a.m. sharp Ash was up, dressed, and at the Gym waiting for it to open. Very few people showed up that day. Most of the trainers have gotten their badge and have moved on. Once the door was unlocked Ash rushed in and stood in the box waiting for Inferno to take his place on the field. 2 hours later Inferno shows up and doesn't even apologize for being late. "So you decided to show back up. I thought for sure you had gone home with your tail between your legs." Inferno says. "Here is your little friend." He continued sending out Slugma. Ash ignores his comments and sends out a Golduck. "Trying the water over fire tactic again." Inferno says. "Just do what you need to." Ash says. Slugma launches toward Golduck and misses. Golduck begins burrowing and a large pool starts to form in the center. Slugma backs away from the rising water and seeks safety on a nearby boulder. Golduck surfaces in the middle of the pond and motions for Slugma to come and get him. Slugma looked around for a safe way to reach his target. Golduck sunk back into the water and vanished. A few seconds later a Psybeam shot from the water and shattered the boulder Slugma was sitting on. Slugma skipped across the water and landed on another boulder. Then he began glowing and the water started to bubble. Inferno smiled. Golduck jumped onto a boulder just before the water vaporized and flames shot through the ground. Golduck put the fire out on his tail and while he is distracted Slugma shot toward him. Golduck whipped around and used Psychic on him, splattering him like a waterballoon. Inferno nodded in approval. "Very impressive. You learn quickly how to overcome your opponents. Here is the Hell's Flame Badge. You earned it." Inferno says tossing him the badge. Ash thanks him and leaves. He walks back excitedly to the hotel. When he walked in Gary was still sitting on the couch waiting for Shino to come down. Around noon Shino and Karen came downstairs looking very well rested. Gary had given up and gone to bed only 15 minutes before. Ash showed his new badge proudly to them. "Good job. Looks like we will be leaving tomorrow then." Shino says shaking his hand. Karen also shakes his hand as well. "So where is Gary? Still at the gym trying to get his badge?" She asks. "No. He stayed up all night waiting for Shino to come down for some reason. He just went to bed." Ash replies. Shino and Karen both head out for a peaceful afternoon alone. They wandered around town hand in hand stopping at a few shops every so often. Following them were several Agents keeping constant watch over them. In a blink of an eye Shino vanishes and the Agents panic. Karen sits down at an outside café and looks over the menu. The Agents franticly search the area for him. One Agent is snatched into an alley and slammed against the wall. His radio is taken and slammed against the wall again. "Afternoon Agent. If you are going to follow someone then you must stay out of sight by blending in with the surroundings. You my friend stick out like a sore thumb." Shino says getting right in terrified Agent's face. "This is my first surveillance mission sir. Please don't kill me." The Agent replied whimpering. "I won't kill you. Just go back to your hotel and rest up. Tomorrow is going to be a challenge. I will be leaving at 8 a.m. Just leave now and tell your fellow Agents to do the same. I would heed my warning if I were you." Shino says and slams him once more before leaving. He sits down next to Karen and watches as the Agent delivers his message to the rest. With in a minute the Agents have all retreated. "I hope you were nice to that rookie Agent." Karen says. "I only slammed him against the wall a few times. Nothing to drastic. I was even nice enough to tell him when I was leaving tomorrow." Shino replies. They relax and enjoy their meal unaware of the Team Rocket members currently seated all around them. Gary is sound asleep and Ash is on the phone to Misty.
