Ages : Dawn – 10 Ash – 18 Brock – 24 Chaper 1 : The Tragedy of Love “ Ash, I’ll never leave you as long as I live. Promise me too that you’ll never leave me. ” As Ash, Pikachu, Dawn and Brock were walking through the Eterna Forest, Ash thought of this promise. It made him utterly mad just thinking of those words. “ Why did she have to leave me? ”, Ash thought of it in his head. Through the many journeys he had, Misty stayed the longest. Through KANTO, The Orange Island and JOHTO, Misty was the one who helped him. He missed her so dearly, yet, he felt that name was the one causing his headache. Dawn wondered what he was thinking about. “ Hey Ash! Snap out of it ! ”, Dawn said while waving her hand in front of his face. Ash snapped out his brain thinking. “ Oh, sorry. ”, Ash replied sadly. After through 4 more hours of walking, it was beginning to get dark as the sun is starting to set down between the two mountains in sight. “ Guys, we have to set camp. By tomorrow we could get to the next gym, the Eterna Gym . ”, Brock told them. They set camp at a spot clear of trees in the forest. After finishing setting up their tents, they ate Brock’s special rice balls. Soon afterward, Dawn was sleepy and went to her tent as she was also preparing for the Pokemon Contest in Eterna City. She waved goodnight. Pikachu was also sleepy by now and told Ash, “ Pikapi! ( Goodnight, Ash! ) ”, and went inside their tent, ready to snuggle up. By that time, Ash and Brock were the only ones left outside. Ash felt miserable again as he was thinking of Misty again. Brock noticed this and guessed the problem. “ Let me guess, you’re thinking of Misty again? ”, Brock told Ash. Ash just nodded to Brock. Ash happened to be thinking about the tragedy that came between Ash and Misty. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ash finally arrived in Cerulean City after 3 days of walking and sleeping on the road. He had a surprise for Misty that would change her life : a wedding. He knew this would be the right time for him to say his feelings. He also knew that since that Misty had a crush on him too, why not try it? When Ash finally arrived in Cerulean City, he left his Pokemon in the Pokemon Center ( except for Pikachu, who was with him ) and went straight to the Cerulean Gym. When he entered through the doors and went to the indoor pool, he got the biggest shock of his life : Gary proposed to Misty and heard those painful, big words, “ YES, I DO ! ”. Ash saw this and shouted to Misty, “ I hate you ! ”. When she heard these words, she quickly turned to Ash and saw him drop something on the floor. She noticed that there was a box, flowers and chocolates. She stood up from where she was and went to pick up the gifts. She read the inscription on the box. It said, “ To my one and only love, Misty ”. When she looked inside the box, she saw the only finest ring with pure gold and a diamond, which can cost thousands of even millions ! But when she tried to speak, he wasn’t even there. She knew that she broke his heart. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Suddeny, Ash heard a familiar voice. It said, “ Hey, Ash ? ” END OF CHAPTER 1
