Of Life And Death- The Untold Pokemon Story It all came to me in a dream... no, I'm just foolin ya. I really couldn't think of a story to write, and I was talking to Pikachu (the writer, not the Pokemon) over the phone and he said he was gonna write a story about ????? (Just don't want to reveal it to people who haven't read it yet) and so I got a brilliant idea. So enjoy and email me at CuteMadi345@aol.com for a review. This is in Ash's POV. It was just another boring, ordinary day. Misty was fishing and not catching anything, Brock was cleaning up everything in sight, and I'm lying on the ground, watching the clouds with my best Pokepal, Pikachu. Unfortunately, the day was so boring the clouds just looked like clouds, and basically what's the fun in that? Now that the Johto league is over, we don't have to travel anywhere in particular, and where we did travel lead us to the middle of nowhere. " Ash, are we just gonna lay around for another week?" Misty complains. " Chill Mist, once we can find out where the heck we are we can leave. And don't look at me for the answer. I always get you guys lost, so talk to Brock." I tell her. Ain't this fun? We were all agitated and bored. I sighed when Brock just started to scream in my ear. " OHMYGOSHIFOUNDWHEREWEARE!!!" Brock yells. " Slower, not so loud, and in English please?" I ask. " Sorry... but we are less then two miles away from Loviely City and they do the National Beauty contest there!" Brock yells. " Get a life!" Misty yells. Yup, she's agitated. But she's ALWAYS that way. " Well, I wouldn't choose yours." Brock states. At this rate, Misty'd pop out her extra large mallet and be killing poor Brock. I know it was mean, but it was very amusing, especially on a day like this. " Chill out guys." I say. " CHILL OUT?" Misty yells, " WE"VE BEEN CHILLING OUT FOR A..." I decide to stop listening because I knew Misty would start swearing, an unknown habit she somehow picked up. Ok, that is funny too, cause I don't think she really knows how to swear TOO properly. " WEEK AND I DON'T THINK I CAN SURVIVE ANOTHER DAY!" Misty yells. " IN FACT! I'M LEAVING NOW!" Misty quietly picks up her backpack and puts Togepi in it. She puts her backpack on and just leaves. " She'll be back." Brock says. I nod. I really don't care where the heck she goes; we barely got along anyways. Ugh! I'm such a horrible liar. I love the girl to death, but it's super obvious she hates me most of the time. " Um, so now what?" I ask. " I wish I knew." Brock says, with a dazed look on his face. It was totally obvious that he already had his mind on meeting the girls in the Beauty Contest. Three words. Pa. Thet. Ic. Only if I knew what was going to happen later that day... ******** A few hours later... " You know, maybe we should go look for Misty." I say, starting to feel a bit worried. I knew she had a map with her, but I didn't like to be separated from her long. " She'll be fine Ash, don't worry!" Brock yells. Ok, if you want to know what I've been doing those last few hours, I've been asking that same question over and over again, with Brock answering that same question over and over again. " Are you sure?" I ask for the... I dunno, the hundredth time? " If you are so worried about the " Terminator Girl" why don't you go look for her yourself?" Brock suggests. " And why didn't you mention that all those hours earlier?" I ask with a tone of annoyance in my voice. " I didn't think you'd want me to." Brock says. " Sometimes I wish I had a mallet of my own..." I mutter under my breath. I just try to ignore the urge to make a mallet and grab my bag. " Come on Pikachu, let's go find Misty." I say. Pikachu quickly hops out of his bored daze and gets on my shoulder. " Pika!" Pikachu yells excitedly. I wish I were Pikachu at this moment. Having no idea whatsoever about what we are doing. And not understanding English... " Brock, if I'm not back by tomorrow morning, just meet in the Pokemon Center at Loviely City." I say. " Ok, bye Ash." Brock says. Pikachu and I start on our mini voyage. Brock was probably right, Misty was just hiding behind some bushes just wanting some alone time. Girls... well, I check all the bushes around me and I don't see any sign of Misty. This makes me worry about a million times more then I just was. " Where the $^$$#^$ ^&#^ could Misty be?" I scream in fury (obviously). Pikachu just sweatdrops. I think I finally figured out why Misty swears... " Pika..." Pikachu says. " Sorry Pikachu, I guess I'm just not myself today." I say. " ASSSSHHHHH! ANNNNYYYONNNNE!" I hear a girl's voice yell. I'm pretty sure it's Misty. " MISTY?" I yell as loud as I could. " HELLLPPP!" Misty yells. " WHERE ARE YOU?" I yell back. All I hear is a faint scream and nothing else after that. At least not of Misty's voice. The next voice that I hear, well... is the thing I hoped I'd never hear. " HEY TWERPO? YOU'VE GOT YASELF TEN MINUTES TO GET YOUR BEHIND HERE BEFORE YA'S GIRLFRIEND IS DEAD!" The voice yells. " Oh my god..." I mutter. I run out of the forest to see Team Rocket in their balloon, holding Misty. And they had a gun up to her head. " Hehehe! We've finally got a way to make you give up Pikachu!" James yells. " So you better give him up to us before we hurt your little girlfriend!" Jesse yells. " No way! I'd never give up Pikachu for Misty!" I yell. Jesse pulls the gun closer to Misty's head. I don't know why, but tears start streaming down my face. " You give back Misty right now!" I yell. " It's your choice! It's either your true friend or your true love!" Jesse yells. " NO! I won't give up Pikachu!!" I yell. " Fine be that way! Jesse, time to pull the trigger!" James yells. Jesse grins and starts to pull the trigger. " NOOOOOO!" I yell. I hear a loud bang. I gasp. " Fine! Take Pikachu! Just give me back Misty!" I yell. I make the hardest trade of my life. Jesse throws Misty out of the balloon and I catch her. James uses electronic hands to take Pikachu. " PIKA!" Pikachu yells. " I'm sorry friend..." I say. I put Misty on my back. I feel her blood oozing quickly out of her head onto my body. I run to Loviely City. I find a hospital and take her in. ********* Six hours later... "Ash?" A doctor nudges me awake. " Huh?" I say while yawning. " Ash, I've got some bad news for you." The doctor says. " Is Misty dead?" I ask. " Not yet. She's on life support. But she's not going to survive on her own." The doctor says. I feel my cheeks getting wet with tears for the second time that night. " Are you going to take her off?" I ask. " Ash, it's your choice. To make her suffer, or to let her die in peace." The doctor says. I lost my true friend and now I'm losing my true love. " I don't know!" I yell. I can't hold myself together any longer, and I run out of the hospital. ******** Six months later... I'm at home now. After Misty's death, I couldn't do anything. Even now I still can't. I'm always so lonely. The only people I can talk to are my own mother and Professor Oak. I've been admitted in the hospital three times for trying to attempt suicide. I want to be with Misty again. I've been diagnosed with depression. Everyone thinks I'm weird. Even I do. "RRIINGG!" I hear the doorbell scream. I let my mother answer it. But for some reason, this time I hear her voice. " ASSSHHH! Some visitors have come to see you!" My mom yells. Probably another pity party. " TELL THEM TO COME UP TO MY ROOM!" I yell. In a minute, I hear a knock on my door. " Hello? Can I come in?" A familiar girl's voice asks. " Uh, sure." I say. The door opens. I look up and gasp. " Hi." " Misty? Pikachu? What are you doing here?" I ask. " Aren't you dead?" " No, who said that?" Misty asks. Misty comes in closer to sit on my bed. Pikachu also hops on my bed and goes onto my shoulder. " I thought the doctor was going to take you off life support!" I say. " I guess he didn't." " You know, just recently I asked the doctor that same question. He told me a boy couldn't do it, so he couldn't do it either. And I somehow survived." Misty says. " But what about Pikachu?" I ask. " Didn't you know that Giovanni got captured?" Misty asks. I shake my head no. " Pikachu was one of the few pokemon alive. I was going to adopt a Pokemon when I found Pikachu. So I took him to give back to you." I smile and hug Misty. " Thanks." I say. " I love you, that's way I did this. I missed you." Misty says. I feel so shocked. I couldn't believe Misty said the three words I thought she never knew to me. I grin. " I missed you too. And... I love you too." I say. " Oh Ash," Misty leans in to kiss me. I feel her sweetness in her kiss, and I smile. I kiss her again and hold onto her, " I knew you loved me." " How?" I ask, surprised she would know. " I was still faintly conscious when Jesse dropped me into your arms. I tried to say something, but I couldn't." Misty says. " Pikachu? I'm sorry I gave you up to Team Rocket." I say. " Pika!" Pikachu says excitedly and licks my nose. " He knew you never wanted to Ash. I could feel it that night." Misty says. " Misty?" I ask. " Yes Ash?" " Will you marry me?" I ask. Misty gets a shocked look in her eyes. She then smiles and kisses me. Her kiss says it all. That was another one that made me cry! I thought the story was kinda short, but I think it's good. PLZ give me a review. Thanks for reading! Rachel (a.k.a., Mini Misty (also in a few of Angel Clefairy's stories))
