Growlithe Love **Part 6 The New Plan** So let's get to the story, shall we? I think this is going to be longer than Part 5. Characters: Ash/Misty: 15 Sharon: 15 1/2 Brock: 18 May: 13 1/2 Max: 11 W, A's G: 2 A, M's G: 2 Pikachu: ? David: 15 1/2 (A/N We have a song; Stranger by Hilary Duff) -------------------------------- "Hey, David." May said when she caught up with him. "What do you want?" said David with hatred in his voice. "Well, I gotta talk to you....." *** "Well? I don't have all the time in the world you know?" David said sharply. "Listen, Ash is Misty's boyfriend-" "I know!" "But, I like him. And you still like Misty. If we can get them apart I can have Ash and you can have Misty. Then everyone lives happily ever after" "Hmmmm, you may be on to something." David said, his eyes glinting evilly. May smiles as they talk for a while. Once they had memorized the plan May walked back in. "Where have you been?" Max accused. "I saw a chicorita and tried to catch it." Sharon and Max look at each other with disbelief painted all over their faces. "Well, you just missed my fabulous lunch and the two hour pokemon video game showdown between Sharon and Misty. "How did it end?" May asked. "A tie." Brock replied. Another video game tournament went on between, Ash and Max, and dinner was served. "Yawn, I'm tired. I think I'll got to bed. Great dinner Brock!" Ash stated. "Me too." everyone murmured. Even May, who needed her sleep because the plan would start day after tomorrow. *** The next morning everyone was surprised by a breakfast buffet prepared by Ash and Brock. There was pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, sausage, and fruit. Misty and Sharon raced to the table and stared at the food greedily. 'Pancakes and sausage and eggs, oh my!' Misty thought. (A/N from the 'Wizard of Oz'!!!) Max asked in disbelief, "Ash, YOU can cook?!?!?!?!" "Yes I can." Ash said sharply, his feelings sort of hurt by Max's remark. Max blushed at his rudeness and sat down beside Sharon. Once breakfast was eaten, more like gobbled, Misty went on her weekly jog around the park. Ash headed toward the gym to train his pokemon. Max followed Ash to see some techniques he could use with Bulbasaur. May said she wanted to walk around too. Brock left for the market, quickly followed by Sharon to make sure he didn't max out her credit card. *** Ash tested his pokemon on some basic techniques. "Pikachu, use Bolt Tackle!!" Pikachu performed his attack on the rock in front of him. Once the dust cleared they could see that the rock was blown into the wall and had a big dent in where Pikachu slammed into it! "Good job Pikachu! Now, Water use Flamethrower!" Water blasted his attackon the rock and left it completely blackened. "Good job Water! Return. Bayleef, use Razor Leaf!" Bayleef's attack left some scratch marks in the rock where the attack had hit. "Perfect Bayleef! Return. Charizard, use Overheat!" (I don't really know how Overheat is performed.) Charizard's attack melted away some of the rock! "Awesome job Charizard! Return." "Hey Ash?" "Yes Max?" "Why do you always say 'good job' and 'perfect' after your pokemon do something?" "Well, the pokemon like to be appreciated. If you don't praise them they might start to think that they're doing all this work for nothing! Maybe you should try that with Bulbasaur?" Ash suggested. "Okay I will" Max said brightly, "Bulbasaur, use vine whip!" Bulbasaur tried to launch his vines at the rock but they whipped feebly at the rock. "That's okay Bulbasaur! You'll get it." "Bulba!" 'Thanks!' Bulbasaur smiled as he tried again. Ash smiled as he left the gym. Pooped, he collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep. "Ash, Ash, wake up!" Misty yelled while shaking him, "Pikachu, use Thunder!" "Pi..ka..chuuuu!" "Ahhhhhhh!" Ash yelled while getting fried. "Are you awake now? Brock's downstairs making breakfast." "Breakfast?" he asked while getting out of bed, "How long did I sleep?" "Well, I'd say about 16 hours. By the way, you snore REALLY loud!" Misty exclaimed while dodging a fried pillow that Ash threw at her. He got dressed and walked downstairs to be welcomed by a chorus of "Good morning sleepy head!" Misty finished her pancakes and said she was going on another jog. Ash needed to finish his pancakes. Max and Sharon went to the gym to train their pokemon. May went to the pool to cool off. Brock read cook books. Pikachu babysat Togepi. *** "Psssst, May." David whispered from the bushes next to the pool. "Yes?" May answered while rubbing in sunscreen. "Is she on her jog yet?" David asked. "Yes she is. Ash is still eating." "Man, still?" "Yes." May said, she was getting annoyed. "Where are the others?" "Max and Sharon are in the gym, and Brock is reading the cook books. Pikachu is babysitting Togepi." "Okay, I'll be in the tree by the Misty's room. And, you'll- "I'll get Ash to go on a walk with me, I know, I know." "Then get a move on!" "I said I was going for a swim. If I'm not wet they'll suspect." "Oh, well, see you." "Whatever." David walked off towasrds the house, lurking in the shadows. (David is very good at lurking, hint hint) May slipped into the pool and did a few laps. Then she got out and dried off. She strode into the house. "Hey Ash, do you want to go for a walk?" May asked sweetly. He swallowed, "Sure May, where?" "Oh, just around Central Park." "Okay." May changed into clothes and then they left. Walking silently until they reached an old oak tree. May stopped. "What's wrong May?" "Uh, my ankle hurts!" May said fakely while starting to grab her ankle. "Well, I guess we can take a break." May kept looking around for any sign of Misty. "Is something wrong with your neck? You might strain it." Ash said. May blushed a deep red, "Oh no, just looking around." She finally saw Misty. She was coming around the corner. "Uh, Ash?" She asked tentatively. "Yes May?" "I really like you." Once she said that she kissed him. Ash was frozen with shock. Then he closed his eyes and kissed back. 'Wait, what am I doing?' He asked himself. 'I love Mis-' His thoughts were inturrupted by a scream. He pulled away Misty was standing there. In view of the whole thing. Heavy tears were falling down her beautiful cheeks. "Misty-" Ash started to say, but she was running away, "Misty, wait!" But she didn't. He pushed May away from him, hatred in his eyes. "Stay away from me. I hate you. You made me lose Misty, I hate you." Ash said, then he ran off. He wanted to go home. His legs started taking him to Pallet. He wanted to hug his mom and hear her calming voice. He wanted her to tell him that it was going to be alright. But, he knew it wouldn't. He had lost the only girl he had ever loved. Nothing would ever be alright again. He had to try to talk to Misty. He stopped running and looked around. He was almost at the city border. Ash followed the way he came and ran towards Misty's house. *** Misty saw it all, he was kissing her. May, of course. She was the face she remembered that was looking at her when she fell. She was grinning evilly. Nobody belives me when I tell them that you're out of your mind Nobody belives me when I tell them that there's so much to hide You treat me like a queen when we go out Wanna show everyone what our loves about All wrapped up in me when ever there is a crowd But when no ones around...... There's no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me it's just not right And I can tell whats going on this time Theres a stranger in my life You're not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let them know it's you? If they could only see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too 'And he was kissing her! May, of all the people in the world he kissed May.' Misty stumbled and fell. Her knees were bleeding, but she didn't care. Misty got up and kept running. She burst into the house and sank to her knees. Tears were falling onto the carpet. Sharon and Brock rushed over to her. Max just watched and listened from the couch. Did I ever do anything that was this creul to you? Did I ever make you wonder who was sstanding in the room? You make yourself look perfect in every way So when this goes down I'm the one who will be blamed Your plan is working so you can just walk away Baby your secrets safe There's no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me it's just not right And I can tell what' going on this time Theres a stranger in my life You're not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let them know it's you? If they could only see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too "He-he doesn't love me." Misty whispered to herself. "What did you say Misty?" Sharon asked. "Ash doesn't love me! He loves May. I saw them kissing in the park!" With that said Misty ran upstairs, slammed the door, and flopped down on her bed. Sharon glanced at Brock, then ran upstairs to try and talk to Misty. Max got up and went outside to look for May. Brock sat down. Anger plastered all over his face. Such a long way back From this place that we were at When I think of all the time I've wasted I could cry There's no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me it's just not right And I can tell whats going on this time Theres a stranger in my life You're not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let them know it's you? If they could onmly see like I do Then they would see a stranger too "Misty, what are you doing?" Sharon asked when she entered the room. Misty was bending over a suitcase, shoving things into it. She looked up from the suitcase at her sister. Misty's face was tearstained and red. "Leaving." She simply said. "But, why? Sharon asked, confused. "Because, he doesn't love me!" Misty started crying again and collapsed into Sharon's open arms. "I understand Misty. It's going to be okay." "No, it's not. It's never going to be okay. I'm leaving for Pokemon City. I have to forget." Sharon nodded slowly. Here, let me help you. Misty and Sharon packed up and made reservations for a room in a hotel. Misty took off her water drop necklace. She held it out to Sharon. "Give it back to, to, him." She said, she didn't want to say Ash's name. "No, you don't need to forget everything about him. Just the bad stuff." Sharon said while putting the necklace back on Misty, "This represents the good stuff, so does Ashes." Misty smiled at her sister and walked downstairs with her suitcase, Sharon followed carrying the other suitcase. "Where are you going?" Brock asked when they came downstairs. "Misty's leaving." "Wh-" Brock started to say, but Sharon silenced him with a look that said 'DON'T say a word or I'll hurt you!' They stood at the door and waved good-bye to her. Brock went upstairs and packed Ash's Max's, May's and his packs. A little while later Ash burst in. "Where's Misty?" he exclaimed breathlessly. "Gone." Sharon stated as she got up and walked toward him, hatred gleaming in her eyes. "But, why?" he spluttered. "Because you don't love her. She hates you Ash Ketchum, and so do I." Sharon slapped him and then turned her back on him. Brock picked up their packs and walked out the door. He muttered a good-bye to Sharon and left. Ash followed while rubbing the side of his face and Pikachu trailed his master with a confused look on his face. Theres no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me it's just not right I can tell whats going on this time Theres a stranger in my life You're not the person that I once knew If they could see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too... ---------------------------------------------- T_T So sad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
