Hi readers! Sorry for the late update, school just takes a lot of me. I want to thank all of the readers who waited patiently for this part, I have to say that I really appreciate it.

Many of you have reviewed, which I am very grateful for. I want to give a big thanks to Kevin G., who reviewed every single part of Dreams Can Be A Reality. (Big applauds)

Okay, here it is.

 

-----Pokemon Trainer?s School-----

        ?Flame Thrower!? Ash commands his Charmander to perform a signature fire move on the defending Pokemon. Charmander opens its red mouth and breath a blazing flame, scorching the poor Fearow.

        Jerry Lance, the Pokemon Battle Technique teacher, has a clipboard in his hand. ?Ketchum, A. Dominguez, train your Fearow and come back here to re-take the test.?

        Ash walks over to his friends, beaming happily. Ash and Ritchie clash their knuckle while Duplica shakes her head, disapproving their childish behavior; but she is really proud that all of them pass the quarter with an A.

        Misty puts her arm on Duplica?s shoulder, preventing herself from falling down. Misty?s leg is still recovering from the last accident with the wild Pokemon.

        As bell rings, the class floods out of the indoor gym. Misty hops out the gym on one foot, with Duplica and Ash?s help, as fast as she can.

        The four friends enter the crowded cafeteria. They decide that Misty should sit down and wait for them to get her lunch. Misty sat along at the table waiting for her friends.

        Rudy walks by and sees Misty sitting by herself, reading a book. He takes the opportunity and sits next to her. ?Hey Misty, what are you reading??

        Misty looks up and sees Rudy, ?Oh hi Rudy. Uh, I am reading a autobiography.? Misty then smiles at him, ?What??

        ?Oh nothing, is just that the old Misty I remember can?t read.? Rudy said with a sly smile on his face.

        ?Oh shut up.? Misty pushes Rudy playfully and closes her hard binder book. ?So, what are you up to lately??

        ?Oh nothing. Hey, I know this is short notice, but will go to the dance with me?? Rudy gives his trademark charming smile, his voice full of confidence.

        ?Oh Rudy, I am sorry, I can?t. My leg is still injured.? Misty said quietly, looking down at the front cover of the book she?s reading.

        ?No problem.? Rudy?s voice sounds a little angry, ?I?ll see you later, okay?? Rudy gets up and leaves. It?s Ash! If I get rid of Ash, I get Misty.

 

-----Pokemon Trainer?s School / Misty?s Dorm-----

        ?The popcorn?s ready.? Ash gets three bags of popcorn from the microwave and pours them into a huge bowl. Ash pushes in the video tape and takes a sit on the couch next to Misty.

        ?Why aren?t you going to the dance like everybody else?? Misty looks to her left, ?I thought you are over Giselle already.?

        ?Yeah well, it?s not fun going there all by myself knowing you is all lonely here.? Ash answers as he get some salt and sprinkle it over the hot popcorn.

        ?That?s so sweet, Ash!?

        Ash starts to blush, ?Uh, besides, I don?t like dances anyways.? Ash lies quickly and horribly. Ash grabs a handful of popcorn and stuffs it into his mouth.

        Misty smiles, no matter what Ash says, she knows that Ash stayed because she?s not going to the dance. But what Misty doesn?t know is that is Ash doing this out of his free will? Or he?s doing it because he feels sorry for her.

        Half way through the movie about a group of Arcanine in the wild, training against each other, trying to surpass each others; Ash  keeps his eyes on the screen and reaches for the popcorn. Instead of the popcorn, Ash somehow got hold of Misty?s hand. At that instant, Ash?s heart jumped, faster then usual. Misty?s heart did the same thing.

        Ash forgot about the popcorn on that instant, but he didn?t let go of Misty?s hand. Sweat starts roll down Ash?s already sweaty forehead, he?s worrying what might happen next. Misty either didn?t seem to mind, or, she?s in the same trance as Ash.

        For the rest of the movie, Ash and Misty has no idea what happened to the Arcanines and they didn?t care. All they know is that they are holding each other?s hands.

        When the movie is almost over, Ash said with his red face, ?Uh, I was reaching for the popcorn.? Ash lets go Misty?s hand and scratches the back of his head.

        Misty didn?t say anything, she giggles quietly when Ash gets up and takes the video tape from the VCR. Yep, I am definitely falling for him.

 

-----Pokemon Trainer?s School / Ash?s Dorm-----

        ?Finally, you two are back.? Ash said displeasingly to the two Pikachu standing at the doorway, ?What took you??

        The two Pikachu answer in their own Pika-language, ?There?s this hot female Pikachu that we saw and we started talking?? The two Pikachu exchange what seem to be smirks.

        ?You guys chat, for 3 hours?!? Ash asks in disbelieve, ?I was counting you guys to get me dinner.? Ash sits down and rubs his own empty stomach and grunt.

        ?We took her to the dance.? Ritchie?s little Sparky said smartly. At that moment, Ritchie comes into the room with Duplica, hand in hand.

        ?Hey guys.? Ash said lying on the bed with his stomach facing down. ?Did you two have a great time? Who?s there??

        ?We had a great time alright, and everybody?s there.? Duplica said high-spiritedly, then she looks at the two little Pikachu, ?Even Pikachu is there.?

        ?They were suppose to get burgers for me and themselves.? Ash said lazily, not moving a muscle. The lack of food, other then popcorns, must takes a lot out of Ash.

        ?I think the burger place is still opened.? Ritchie said, looking at his watch, ?You should hurry.?

        Ash push himself up tiredly and walk out of the door, ?See you later, gotta get my dinner.? Ash raises his hands and stretch and yawn.

 

-----Viridian City-----

        Ash walks slowly in the dark and quiet street of Viridian, which is not a safe thing to do. Walking along in after sunset in Viridian can be dangerous as there is a rumor going around that Team Rocket lurks around Viridian.

        Ash walks down the street, seeing the lights from the dance; it?s probably a block away. Ash guesses that the dance is over already since there is no music playing.

        Mind as well check out the dance floor, Ash thought, walking toward the big stadium. Then Ash spots someone dash out of the exit and walks swiftly to his left.

        Ash narrows his eyes to get a better view of the person. Rudy? What?s he doing out so late? The burger place is at the right, not the left.

        After Ash concludes that Rudy isn?t going to the burger place, he quietly and stealthy follows Rudy. They run for almost then minutes, arriving at a stair case, leading down to an abandon subway tracks.

        ?What?s he doing here?? Ash follows Rudy down the long stairs and arrives at some sort of room. The room is huge, in fact, Ash can?t even see the end of it. Ash continues to follow Rudy until?

        ?You?re late.? A cold and harsh voice said.

        Ash immediately dives to his right, jumping behind couple of paper boxes, trying to make as least sound as he could. Something from the back of his mind tells him that he doesn?t want to get caught by whoever that is.

        ?I am sorry father.? Rudy said calmly.

        Father?! So this guy is Rudy?s dad. He?s creepy. Ash thought to himself, making a mental note that he will be on Rudy?s dad?s good side.

        ?Son, how the plan working on the school.? The cold voice speaks again, only this time it was more deadly.

        ?It?s all set dad. When you give the order, all the Pokemon in the school will be Team Rocket?s.? Rudy replies while giving a small bow.

        What?! All the Pokemon will be Team Rocket?s, who?s this guy, the leader of Team Rocket? Ash thought uncomfortable. If this guy is the leader of Team Rocket, Rudy must be? Ash stifles that thought.

        If Misty says Rudy is a good person, then I am sure Misty?s right. But this isn?t right. Ash keeps thinking?

        ?WHO?S THERE!!!??? The cold voice barks.

 


Cliffhanger? hum. So what do you think? Is Ash gonna get out of this one? Review and review. I am currently working on the next part, and my old fic A Never Ending Tale.

A big thanks to everyone who read and reviewed my fics.
