Las time, Gary told Marissa the truth about his past as a Pokemon trainer, which made her upset for a little while. Then, with clever observations, Marissa was surprised by Gary's skill as a Pokemon trainer. Later, she found out that her new friend Ash was going to battle against Gary, which made her worry about whether to apologize before it's late or faces the consequences of having a melancholy time of her life. Let's wait and see........ Marissa: *watching from a distance* I hope Gary would know that I'm the one apologizing for yelling at him all because I thought that he forgot about me. He's a very sweet guy, even though he did face some obstacles very boldly as well as Ash. Still, I think Gary would always be my sweetheart forever. *smiles* Gary: Hope you fun at the Silver Conference 'cause it'll be cut short! Ash: Not so fast!!!!!!! Pikachu: Pika! Pika! Misty: Oh no! There they go at it again! Brock: It's looks like this could turn into another arguement about who's better. Ash: I think what you said was part of deciding who's better. Gary: I say that I'm better and that's is that! *pulls out something from his pocket and out comes a broken half of a small Pokeball* Misty: What's that? Ash: Whoa! That's the other half of the Pokeball from when Gary and I tied a long time ago. Gary: Wrong! That's the other of the Pokeball from when I won and you lost! Ash: Well, I thought that I won and you lost! So, that's how it turned out to be! Gary: Well, I know one thing about tomorrow's match: *points his finger* YOU WILL BE TOAST!!!! Marissa: Oh no! Gary's has gone OVER THE EDGE! *later in her hotel room* Marissa: *knocks at the door* Ash: Who is it? Marissa: It's me, Marissa! Ash: *opens the door* Hey Marissa! Marissa: Ash, listen! I overheard you and Gary talking tomorrow's match and who's better. Well, it doesn't matter to me or any one of us here. The important thing here is that you and Gary will end this long feud ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!!!!! Ash: I hope so......... Marissa: me too.......So, what made you and Gary rivals? Ash: *pulls out his half of broken Pokeball from his backpack* This half of the Pokeball reminded me of when I just starting out on my journey........ *flashback to a small creek* Ash: *feels a pull on his fishing line* Hey, I think I got a bite! *out comes a Magikarp and starts slapping Ash in the face with flail* Gary: *laughs as he sends out his fishing line* Ash: Hey, what are you doing here???????? Gary: Fishing! Ash: Hey, this is my secret spot and I like to fish here! Gary: I've been fishing here too, you know. Ash: Oh yeah, then why don't you fish somewhere else? Gary: Somewhere else?!?!?! Heh, you wish I'd do that! In fact, I've been fishing here before I ever got my first Pokeball. Ash: Really? Gary: Yeah! Hey, I suppose you can tell me what kind of attacks Magikarp has. Ash: Sure! Uh...............let's see now.....there's........... Gary: Time's up! The answers are Splash attack, Tackle, and Flail. The Flail is what got ya! Ash: Yeah, I see what you mean. Gary: These and other questions about Pokemon can answered in this Pokemon handbook, which is written by my grandfather. Ash: Hey, that's cool! *a bite on both lines is felt* Ash: Oh, I think I got something! Gary: Me too! *both reel in their lines* Gary: I don't wanna make this a loss for me before I become a Pokemon master. Ash: Well, i'm going to win this one! Gary: Ash, let go! Gary: No, you let go! *both run to the bridge* Just when you think that either Ash or Gary would have the win, something would change all that....... Gary: I wanna win this one! Ash: No, you'll lose this one! So, just let go! Gary: No, you let go! *the Pokeball breaks* Ash: Wow! It broke! Gary: Yeah, I never knew that it could break so fast. Ash: So, should we call it a tie? Gary: No, I would never tie with a loser like you! Ash: GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! *flashback to the present* Misty: Wow! I never knew things were like that. Ash: Gary and I had a time back there. Now, I feel like I lost. I'll probably never win against Gary. Brock: For your match against Gary, just go out and do your best. Ash: Thanks! The next day at breakfast......... Ash: I hope things go well in my match against Gary...... Misty: Don't worry, I'm sure you'll do great! Brock: Yeah! We're with you all the way! *a roar was heard in the sky* Ash: What was that? It looks like......... *the roar got louder* Ash: It's Charizard! Misty: Wow! Brock, how did Ash know? Brock: Oh yeah, I made a phone call to Liza late last night. Ash: Over here, Charizard! Charizard: Roar! *uses flamethrower on Ash* *Gary shows up* Misty: It's Gary! Togepi: Toge! Pikachu: Pika! *Ash and Gary would stare at each other for a few minutes* Gary: Mornin' Ash! Ash: Good morning! Pro. Oak: Ah, this is a good time for a rhyme! Ash: Pro. Oak! Gary: Grandpa! Pro. Oak: Two rivals facing one another and then battle each other! Delia: I can't wait to see the two of you battle. We just had to see it live! Marissa: Gary! I wanna tell you something! Gary: What is it? Delia: Who is this young lady? Gary: Mrs. Ketchum, this is my longtime childhood friend, Marissa Ann Lee. Delia: Oh, how nice to meet you! Marissa: Nice to meet you too! Pro. Oak: Marissa, it's been a long time since I last saw you. Marissa: It certainly has, Professor. I just wanted thing to go well at today's match. *turns to Gary* Look, Gary, I'm sorry if I was too hard on you. Gary: It's ok! I forgive you! Marissa: Thank you so much! Good luck to you and Ash! Will things go well at the match? Will Gary and Marissa's love survive if he either wins or loses against Ash? Stay tuned for Part 6........
