“Ash! Ash!” An excited eighteen year old mature May exclaimed running towards him. “Look! Look!”

Nineteen year old matured Ash turned away from the window to see a blur of loose brown hair fly into his arms, obscuring his vision as he fell to the living room floor with a Thump! Groaning he sat up taking May off his stomach and onto his lap.

“What is it May?” Ash asked.

“Read it! Read it!” May yelled shoving the magazine in his face.

Ash stared down at his and May’s picture and above it the title: NEW POKEMON MASTER!!! Ash’s heart skipped a beat as he saw one of the picture near the bottom… Misty

Dear your name here…
It’s been a long time, very long time,
Since I’ve heard your voice
And I bet she never though I was,
So sorry so?

Ash Ketchum has now officially been given the title of Pokemon Master, although many around the world have already called him by that title for almost a year. Yesterday however he gave a statement, [“A Pokemon master and proud!”] confirming his official title. Now almost all Master Titles have been filled.

Currently the titles that have been filled are: Grass Pokemon master by Max White, Water Pokemon Master by Misty Waterflower, Electric Pokemon Master by Tyler Sayer, Ice Pokemon Master by Sharon Anderson, Fire Pokemon master by Damien Dawnson. Ground, Psychic, Magma, Steel etc Pokemon Masters are still free and unnamed.

Ash has also commented that he has been going out with may White, a close childhood companion of his. [“My best friend and lover…”] The couple announced that they shall settle down in Los Angeles where they have found a home.

I’ve hard time, very hard time,
Seeing less of you,
I never thought you knew

“I love your picture” May whispered smiling.

“Max’s is nice too. Youngest Master to date right?” Ash still looked over the pictures. “I didn’t know Sharon was the Ice Pokemon Master, she looks good… Damien’s Fire? No surprise there… After that fight he visited us a lot remember? Tyler huh? Good friend and great trainer… Misty…”

“Although I never liked her she was an excellent Water Trainer…” May commented solemnly.

“Yeah… yeah she was… And apparently still is…” Ash muttered.

So can you see?
You’re seeing less of me darling.
And you’re blind to the fact that my,
Heart stopped beating,
And I’m as good as dead,
And I'm as good as dead.

Of course she was… She had traveled with him after all, and he had seen her great battling skills. How could she not have become Water Pokemon Master? Especially now that she had perfected her skills and learned from her mistakes. Ash had to admit it… Even after 3 years she still looked great… Absolutely stunningly beautiful… he had to admit it, he missed her a good deal…

Dear I forgot your name again...
Just picking up where I left off,
(Oh yeah) This is the part where you leave me.
So sorry so?

Misty had after all been his first and special intimate relationship… but although he still wished things had ended differently… He was sorry for acting the way he did… Maybe if he hadn’t acted so savagely she wouldn’t have gone like she did… but did she know he was sorry? Probably not… Sharon would have made sure of that… And even if she did, she probably didn’t care…

I've had a hard time, very hard time,
Seeing less of you,
I never thought you knew.

“She‘s still been going out with Dan after all these years…” May added looking at Misty’s picture. “They said that in an article a few weeks ago when they had an exclusive with him, Sharon and Damien. Dan’s The World’s Greatest Pokemon Coordinator.”

“He is?” Ash asked surprised. “Didn’t know that…”

“What are you two doing?” a voice came from the doorway.

So can you see?
You're seeing less of me darling,
And you're blind to the fact that my,
Heart stopped beating.

Ash and May jumped to their feet as they saw Max an Mary staring at them from the doorway. Max was wearing a suppressed grin on his face while Mary wore a disapproving frown.

“There are minors in this house…” Mary said scowling

“If I had my way, there wouldn’t be…” Ash growled walking out of the room and to his study.

“Sorry you guys…” May smiled,

“Sorry!? Dan you guys are all over each other 99% of the time we’re here and the other 1% is when you’re not here…” Mary scowled.

So can you see?
You're seeing less of me darling.
And you're blind to the fact that my,
Heart stopped beating,
And I'm as good as dead,
And I'm as good as dead.
This is all I have to say,
This is all I have to say.
(Go!)

Ash entered his study with a sigh, realizing he still held the magazine. He went over to his chair and sank into it, opening to the article where Misty’s picture was. He stared down at her, looking over her delicate features. As Ash looked down at the caption underneath, he felt a great fury take over him.

Misty Waterflower, Water Pokemon Master is currently dating none other than Daniel (Dan) Everwaters, World’s Greatest Pokemon Coordinator, a close childhood companion.

So can you see?
You're seeing less of me darling,
And you're blind to the fact that my,
Heart stopped beating.

She was gone… Ash had to forget her. She wasn’t his anymore… Misty was Dan’s now and he had to forget her. Although he still loved her… She probably had forgotten all about him… now that she was with Dan… Ash threw the magazine away from him and looked away as he felt a lump of emotion in his throat.

“I said Good bye once to you Misty… and I can say it again…” Ash whispered.

So can you see? (So can you see?)
You're seeing less of me darling
And you're blind to the fact that my
Heart stopped beating
(Stopped beating, stopped beating, stopped beating, stopped beating...)
