***Part 17***

Misty set her bags upon the floor near a chair. She sat down into it with a sigh. She didn't know what to do now...

How can you see into my eyes like open doors,

Leading you down into my core?

Where I've become so numb?

Without a soul,

My spirit sleeping somewhere cold.

Until you find it there and lead it back home.

"Misty!" Brock exclaimed.

Misty looked up and saw Brock and Tracey leading a cold and dark Ash behind them. She smiled a little. At least he had come to say goodbye... But she wanted him to feel something again.. Eve though she knew it wouldn't happen ever...

"Hi guys..." Misty replied weakly.

She raised her camera and quickly took a picture of them both. To remember them... Misty bit her lip as Ash came nearer. This was probably the last time she would see him..

(Wake me up.)

Wake me up inside.

(I can't wake up.)

Wake me up inside.

(Save me.)

Call my name and save me from the dark.

(Wake me up.)

Bid my blood to run,

(I can't wake up.)

Before I come undone.

(Save me.)

Save me from the nothing I've become.

Misty went and gave them both a one arm hug, where Brock whispered, "We're sorry Mist. Ash is just blind with jealous right now."

"Let him cool down. Trust me, he'll come around. Just give him some time." Tracey murmured,

Time? How much time? She only had less than an hour for him to come back to his senses, how much time did he need?! She however nodded to them and as she let got, she turned to ash. Misty lifted her camera slightly.

"To remember you by?" Misty asked tightly, throat tight with emotion, and eyes shining with tears.

"Fine..." Ash replied stiffly.

Now that I know what I'm without,

You can't just leave me.

Breathe into me and make me real,

Bring me to life.

Misty raised the camera to her eyes, hands trembling. Blinking away the tears, she focused the lens upon Ash's hard and cold face. Those eyes... All the love and life was gone from them... Blinking rapidly, tears threatening nonstop. Those lips.. she ached for them each and every single second, she was apart from them... Click!

(Wake me up.)

Wake me up inside.

(I can't wake up.)

Wake me up inside.

(Save me.)

Call my name and save me from the dark.

(Wake me up.)

Bid my blood to run,

(I can't wake up.)

Before I come undone.

(Save me.)

Save me from the nothing I've become.

Misty lowered the camera with a smile smiled plastered over her face. Well this was it.. She was leaving the group for the first time in her whole entire travelings with Ash... But this might also be the last... She sighed.

"Um, are you a Misty Waterflower?" Nurse Joy suddenly asked as she came over to the.

"yes that's me." Misty replied puzzled.

"A Sharon Anderson had called you. She wants you to phone her when you can."

"Oh, okay." Misty replied surprised. "I'll call her right now." She turned to Brock, Tracey and Ash. "Hold on the my stuff. I won't be long..."

"Okay..."

Bring me to life.

(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside.)

Bring me to life.

"Misty! Did you get him back?" Sharon asked cheerfully.

"No... I'm leaving." Misty replied into the TV phone.

"What?! Misty no you can't-!" Sharon started but Misty cut in, sadly, "i just can't fight anymore, Sharon... I'd rather wait I guess.... I'll give him the tape but I'm not fighting... When he's done with his fit, I'll explain to him what happened.."

Sharon sighed, "I dunno Misty... Don't think he deserves it, after the way he's treating you..."

Misty laughed but tears glazed in her eyes.

"I hope you're all right Mist. I'll see you then right?"

"Right..."

"Oh by the way... I've met up with an old friend..."

"Who?" Misty asked suspiciously.

"Damien Dawnson..." Sharon replied blushing. "he asked me out..."

"And!?" Misty demanded eagerly.

"I said yes..."

"Good for you Shar! You should get Greg out of the picture. I'm sure Damien will be great..."

"He is... By Mist. I gotta go."

"Bye Shar."

The screen went black.

Frozen inside without your touch,

Without your love,

Darling only you are the life among the dead!

Misty sighed and turned once more to Ash, Tracey and Brock in the corner. She still had that tape in her jeans pocket which seemed to burn a hole as she thought of giving to Ash. She tossed her hair back and squared her shoulders and stood up. She had to do this. She pulled out her scunchie from her other pocket and put it on her wrist. If she was going to do this; she had to turn back the clock so things would be like before...

She walked up to Brock, Tracey and Ash. She completely by-passed Ash and Tracey and went to Brock who had her knapsack. She bent down, opened the knapsack and took out her cassette player and headphones. She stood up again to face Ash.

All this time I can't believe I couldn't see,

Kept in the dark, but you there in front of me.

I've been sleeping a thousand years, it seems.

Got to open my eyes to everything.

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul.

Don't let me die here...

There must be something more,

Bring me to life.

"Ash. This is for you. I hope one day you can forgive me. I know I've hurt you... But I hope you don't leave me all alone like Shadow... I'll wait but I won't wait all my life Ash... I know you'll have to come by sometimes.." Misty smiled handing him the cassette and headphones. "I'll wait until then... here..." she took out the tape, tearfully but smiling all the same. "I made this for you... Good bye Ash..." she turned to Tracey and Brock, "I'll see you guys once in a while right?"

They nodded and gave her one last hug. She picked up her knapsack swung it over her shoulder and for the first time in weeks, she picked up her hair in a half ponytail. She smiled, picked up Togepi, took one last picture before saying one final goodbye...

(Wake me up.)

Wake me up inside.

(I can't wake up.)

Wake me up inside.

(Save me.)

Call my name and save me from the dark.

(Wake me up.)

Bid my blood to run,

(I can't wake up.)

Before I come undone.

(Save me.)

Save me from the nothing I've become.

Listen to the tape Ash. Please..." tears shined in her eyes as she continued, voice breaking. "And remember... I'll always love you..." She moved closer to him, her hand snaking up onto his neck as she pulled him down for one final kiss.... The one she would remember him by... And he would also remember her by... "And Ash..." Tears began to fall unheedingly from her closed eyes as she pulled herself away. "I'll always trust you..."

And she ran... She ran.... and ran... and ran... Not stopping for a second... She couldn't, she shouldn't, she wouldn't...

(Bring me to life)

I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside

(Bring me to life!)
