Title: A Love Battle By: Flying Torchics Part 7 Disclaimer: I don’t own Pokemon 6 years later... ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, “Pikachu use quick attack!” Pikachu started to run, faster, and faster until he was a moving at the speed of light and struck the Nidoking. The attack damaged Nidoking a lot, but not enough to knock him out. “Ok Nidoking use Headbutt!” “Nido!” The Nidoking charged at Pikachu. “Pikachu dodge it!” But it was too late the Nidoking’s sharp horn hit Pikachu on his stomach. “Hold on to Nidoking’s head!” Pikachu nodded his furry little head and held on to Nidoking’s head. “Nidoking shake Pikachu off!” Nidoking was shaking his head furiously but Pikachu still held on. “Now Pikachu, Thunder!” “Pikachu!!” A yellow beam of light surrounded Pikachu and his opponent. Nidoking fell down, but Pikachu was still up. “Nidoking is unable to battle, The new Pokemon Master, Ash Ketchum wins!” The crowd roared as Ash shook hands with the other trainer. “Good match Ash.” “You’re not so bad yourself.” “So, are you going to celebrate?” It was a male voice, and Ash recognized it at once. “Brock!” “Yep” He said with a grin “And guess who I brought with me.” “Let’s see... is it Suzy?” “Nope. How could I have brought her here after, well, she went away.” “Oh yeah…My mom?” “Not even close.” “Ok I give up.” “You sure Ash? You know you can guess it.” “Yes, I’m sure.” He said getting a little annoyed. “Well Ash, it’s Misty!” Brock said, and behind him a redhead walked up to him. “Hi Ash, do you remember me?” “Of course I do. I mean we traveled together for about four years. How could I forget you?” “So, are you going to celebrate?” Brock said for the second time. “Yea, I guess so. Well, I gotta go and send those invitations.” Ash started to run out of the stadium, heading towards the exit. “See you Ash!” Misty said “Yeah, and don’t forget to send us the invitations!” “Ok, guys, I won’t forget!” When Ash got back to his hotel room in the Goldeen Getaway, (I know it’s a weird name, but it was the best I could think of.) he sat down next to his laptop and started sending e-mails to all of his contacts. “Let’s see, I sent it to Duplica, Gary, Oak, Birch, Elm, my mom, Brock, Misty ...all done! Hmm… now what should I do?” He picked up the remote and the TV flickered into life. The news was on; it was about Ash becoming the new Pokemon master. He changed the channel; it was now on the food channel. He sniffed himself. “Whew! Ugh! That’s just not right.” He turned off the TV and went into the bathroom. When he was done taking a shower he saw something all red. It was blood! He followed the trail of red liquid. The trail went out of the door. Ash was still following it. It stopped. He looked around and saw Pikachu laying in a pool of blood. “Pikachu!” Ash crouched down and picked him up. He carried Pikachu back to the room, and laid him on the bathroom counter. As he went out the bathroom he licked his hand. “Pikachu you are dead!” Ash said as he barged into the bathroom. He looked at the counter to see Pikachu laughing his head off. “Pikachu…” Ash put his hands in front of him, he was ready to kill. “Uh oh! Nap attack!” After he said that his head dropped and he collapsed onto the floor. “Pikakachuchapika(It’s been a while since his last nap attack.)” Pikachu jumped onto the floor, walking out of the bathroom on all fours, laughing to himself. Ash opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was a blinding light. He quickly put his hands over his eyes. He scooted a little to the left, towards the sink and opened his eyes again. No blinding light, good. Now he could let his eyes adjust to the bright morning light. Walking out of the bathroom Ash immediately noticed the mess Pikachu made. “Must have been looking for ketchup.” Ash chuckled. Then he heard something move under the sheets. It was Pikachu. “Pikachapikikakakapika?(Ash where did you put the ketchup?)” Ash laughed “Pika?(what?)” “Pikachu you look so funny right now.” “Pikachuchapika?(I’m being serious, where did you put it?)” “Well, it’s all over you.” Pikachu looked at himself, embarrassed. “Pikahcuchapikapikachu(How was I supposed to know it was all over me?)” Ash finally remembered the party. “Pikachu let’s go! The party is going to start soon!” “Pikachapi(Ash it’s only 8:00!)” “I know that’s 10 minutes late!” When they got to the place where the party was supposed to be no one was there. “Where is everyone?” “pikachupikapi(Ash the party’s at 8 pm not am.)” “Now what do we do?” Right after Ash said that a beautiful girl ran up to him. She was panting from the long run. “Help me, there’s a guy chasing me…help!” ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Who is this girl? Is she a threat? Everything will be revealed in the next chapter. By the way I wanted to announce that the next part of ‘Who’s side are you on?’ will be posted next week, or the week after that. Thank you.
