Characters: Ash: 13 Misty: 13 Sharon: 13 Brock: 17 May: 12 Max: 8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Part 3 Ash slowly opened his eyes. He sat up and saw that Brock, May, Max was still sleeping. He got dressed and looked out of the cave. It was still raining. He yawned and stretched. Then he got out the locket that Misty gave him and sat down on a rock near the entrance of the cave. He sighed and looked outside. 'Oh Misty....' thought Ash, 'I always wonder abut you...if you're okay or miserable...Sharon must be keeping you away from boys like I asked her to so I'm not too worried about that' He heard shuffling behind him and knew that Brock ,May, and Max were starting to wake up. He hurriedly put the locket in his pocket so Brock wouldn't laugh at him ***Lake*** Meanwhile Misty was still at the lake sleeping. She is having a dream. ***Misty's Dream*** "Where am I? "Asks Misty. She finds herself in a boat on a lake. She leans at the end of the boat to try and catch a sight of land. "I can answer that Misty,” says a strangely familiar voice from behind her. Misty turns around thinking 'It can't be Ash - or can it?' She sees that it is Ash "Ash! What are you doing here?" Misty asks surprised. "I asked you out remember? Are you feeling okay?" replys the dream-Ash with uncertainty. "Ye-Yeah I'm okay ***Back at the Cave*** "You guys I'm gonna go and get firewood to cook breakfast okay." said Brock standing up "No Brock I'll go. Besides I could use the walk,” said Ash standing up with Pikachu on his shoulder. "All right but bring a whole lot 'cause it looks like we'll be here for a while" replied Brock looking outside. It was still raining. Okay." said Ash heading out. *********** Ash had gathered a lot of firewood already and had put it in a nice pile so he decided to walk around the lake for a while. He didn't care if it was still raining. He wanted to think about his dream he had had. In his dream it was a warm sunny day and he was along the bank of lake and then suddenly Misty appeared saying she had been waiting for a long time.... Then it changed...His dream had changed to a rainy scenery. Misty was still there but she kept saying that she had to leave and it was too late................ Ash was suddenly thrown out of his thoughts as it started to rain harder and saw from far away a redheaded figure lying on the ground....... ***Misty's Dream*** Misty was still in the boat with Ash steering. She felt happy that Ash had asked her out but wondered whether something would go wrong like always...... Suddenly something hit the boat hard and it tipped over. They were both thrown out of the boat and into the lake. Misty had closed her eyes once she got thrown into the water and when she opened them she saw the dream-Ash swimming upward. The dream-Ash was already putting the boat right side up and getting in when Misty started to swim upward. The dream-Ash saw her coming nearer to the surface so he held out his hand. Misty swam faster, finally reached the surface, and was about to grab the dream-Ash's hand when something grabbed at her leg. The something that had grabbed her leg was pulling her down into the lake. The dream-Ash was still holding out his hand but was shouting her name. Misty was being pulled deeper and deeper into the lake with no means of escape............. ***Outside in the real world*** Ash was running toward the redheaded figure lying on the ground who he knew as Misty. When he reached her he bent down and tried to wake her up. He said he name and shook her very hard when she finally opened her eyes. Still thinking she was in her dream she whispered, "Ash you came............ but I think it's too late Ash.........." She fainted. Ash saw that she was wet and when he put his hand to her forehead saw that she was burning up too. "Pikachu you grab her bag and Togepi while I carry Misty." Ash told his Pikachu. Pikachu immediately followed Ash's orders and grabbed the handle of Misty's backpack, the cape, and Togepi who had already woken up and had started to cry. Ash slid his arms under Misty, got up, and started to run back toward the cave. 'Hold on Misty,' he thought as he ran, 'We're almost there.....' ***Back at the cave*** Brock, May, and Max were still waiting for Ash. They were getting tired of waiting. "Come on! How long does it take to get firewood?" said Max exasperrated. " I know," replied Brock "He should be back by now." "Maybe he got lost on the way back, " said May carelessly. "Ash is not that stupid May, at least he can take care of himself unlike some people I know..."said Max "What are you trying to say with that?" snapped May. "Oh nothing except that you can't take care of yourself.” replied Max " I so can take care of myself." May shot back. (That is so not true.) "Yeah right "said Max " If you could take care of yourself which I might add you don't, we wouldn't have to be with Ash in the first place!"(Very, Very True) "Make me!" challenged Max. "Hey Ash is coming back but he doesn't seem to be holding firewood..." Brock pointed out. "What could he be possibly be carrying instead of firewood?" asked Max distractedly Ash was nearer to the cave and to Brock's disbelief he was carrying- "Misty!" cried Brock. "Misty? I thought she lived in Cerualean City,” said Max confused. "What is she doing here Ash?" asked Brock as Ash entered the cave with Pikachu trailing behind him. "Found her-by the lake-she's burning up-needs help-"Ash said between gasps. He went over to his sleeping bag and put her down. He caught his breath and then told Brock everything. After he told Brock everything he got blankets and covered Misty. Brock put his hand on her forehead and pulled it away quickly. “What?” asked Ash worriedly. "She has a really has a very very high fever Ash.... I'm not sure we can take care of her rightly..." "Yes we can.” said Ash firmly. Ash got a damp towel and put it on Misty's forehead hoping it cool her down a bit. Meanwhile Brock started breakfast but Brock was distracted because he was really worried about Misty. He made so many mistakes in his cooking that by the time he finished cooking breakfast it was noon. He served May and Max but not himself. He gave Togepi some Pokemon food but she refused to eat when her "Mother" was sick. "Aren't ya gonna eat Brock?" asked May diggin in. "No I can't...I can't...." replied Brock looking over at Misty. "How 'bout you Ash? Aren't you hungry for Brock's food?" asked May tantalizing him with the bowl of stew. "How can you think that I would eat when My Best Friend is unconscious?" asked Ash giving her a cold look. "You don't need to bite my head off. Just a simple 'Yes or No' would do." replied May hurt. Ash gave her one last cold look before looking back to Misty with a worried look. "What's up with Ash Brock? I've never seen him refuse food before." whispered May. "I'm not entirely sure but I think-"Brock whispered but Ash who heard May's question cut in, " Misty's My Best Friend May. What part of the concept of 'My Best Friend' do you not understand?" "I know but what's the big deal? She just has a high fever.” said May like a snob " You just don't understand. When you have a best friend maybe you will." replied Ash with a sigh. " Oh don't mind him May," whispered Brock "Ash's worried that's all. Misty saved his life twice. And he owes her. When they first met she reeled him in before he drowned. She did the same thing when I left for a while and a kid named Tracy joined them. Plus those 2 were together alone for a while before I first started to travel with them. So I assume they got pretty close in that amount of time." Brock sighed and continued "She was with him since the begging and she’ll probably be with him 'till the end. Plus in my opinion I think he likes her." He snickered at this point and then added as an afterthought,"Or he might Love her." May turned to look at Ash and Misty quietly. Her heart was bursting with jealousy. 'What does he see in her?' she asked herself angrily. Ash never left Misty's side not to eat or to drink, which made May even more jealous. Her mood didn't improve at all as the day went on. And as May got ready for bed she looked over at Ash to wish him goodnight only to see Ash had already fallen asleep, his head on Misty's shoulder and his hand in Misty's. (Ooooooohh*giggle*) The jealousy she felt intensified even more so that her heart was fit to burst. She lay down and thought angrily, " Really what does he see in her anyway? Se's definitely not at all pretty, I on the other hand am. (Bullshit! That is such a lie! Such a lie!) I'm gonna split those two up if it's the last thing I do...'And with that comforting thought (Yeah right! That so not a comforting thought! You're so evil May! I hate you, I despise you, I absolutely- oh wait you’re reading the story not about what I feel) she fell asleep. _________________________________________________________________________ Note: Sorry but it's true. May is evil! She's a-She's a- (I’m trying to think of a perfect word for her without cursing) She's a-She's a shrew! I just had that as a vocabulary word and if you don't know what it means it means a bad nagging tempered woman. Anyway please send me reviews!
