Me: Hi again! Sorry for the cliffhanger at the end of last chapter, but I’m also sorry that I’m not carrying on with the main story yet, but I’m doing a side- chapter instead! He he he…^_^;       

Misty: That’s mean! (Pulls out mallet) I guess I’m just going to have to consult my best friend, my little mallet…

Me: It’s okay, honest! The next chapter’s on its way, really soon! Just don’t whack me right?

Misty: Oh well. Guess I can’t hit you then!

 

Disclaimer: Still don’t own Pokémon, coz if I did, and a lot of other peeps have said this too, Ash and Misty would have got together a long, long time ago…

 

Misty’s Journey

By Misty’s Double

Side chapter- Dear Diary…

*Updated*

 

With this chapter, you don’t need to read the whole story so far, but you do need a basic idea of the storyline. This chapter has a number of diary entries from Ash and Misty, since Misty left Ash to go round Johto to compete in the League…and it also fills you in on Pokémon captures, and in between chapters.

 

*~*~*~*~*

Thursday May 12th 2002   ~*Days to Johto League… 92*~

 

Dear Diary,

Sorry I haven’t written to you since… well, since my first day as a trainer!

I’ve become a much better trainer since then, I’ve fought in loads of tournaments, and won some of them! But the worst thing’s happened to me today. Out of the blue, Misty goes and leaves us to go back to Cerulean. It’s typical, because I was planning to admit my feelings to her right before the Johto League, whether she rejects me or not is another question to battle her. Yeah, that’s it, I wanted to prove to her how great I’m becoming, but no, and she decides to leave for Cerulean…

Anyhow, I’m beginning to wonder whether it’s the way I’ve been acting towards her, or maybe I said something to her. Or it might be the fact she hasn’t been herself since the Gyarados at the Lake of Rage attacked her last month. God, I was petrified watching the Gyarados have hold of her, trying to drown her…

Anyway, she just disappeared to the Pokémart earlier this morning, and when we find her, she just hands me a Pokégear, and tells me she’s leaving to go back to Cerulean! It was horrible when she started walking towards New Bark Town. She was alone, and I swear she was crying. I guess that makes two of us…

I’m worried, because I’ve got a bad feeling something’s not going to be the same if- no, I can’t think negative- when she returns…

I’m beginning to worry about Pikachu lately, because she’s suddenly lost weight. It’s happened since she ran off two weeks ago when she had the fat belly, and returned exhausted!

I must go now, we’re starting a new training regime for the Johto League tomorrow, so it’s early to bed for us!

Dear Diary,

Today must have been the worst day of my life, except from on Shamuti Island, I was *so* cruel to him! Anyway, last night, I remembered my childhood dream to enter the Leagues, and well, this morning, out of the blue, I left Brock and Ash in Blackthorn City to begin the Johto League. The thing is, if Ash finds out about me going round Johto to enter the League, he’d never speak to me again! I’ve just told him that I’m going back to Cerulean to become a much better water Pokémon trainer. I’ve already let slip to Brock about my true intentions, and it’s only a matter of time before I tell Ash… 

I’m writing this in Pewter City Pokémon Center, coz I found a shortcut to Kanto. Brock’s asked me to see how his family’s doing. I’ll do that after I’ve beaten his Dad!

Okay, I’d better go, Togepi looks starving!

See ya!

 

Misty xXx

 

P.S   I LUV ASH 4EVA!!

Thursday 26th May 2002          ~*Days to Johto League… 78*~

 

Dear Diary,

It’s been two weeks since Misty left us to go back to Cerulean, and I’ve been feeling terrible since. It’s just as if- there’s a part of me missing, just been killed off when she left. But it’s been replaced by a weird feeling. One I didn’t have when Brock stayed behind at Prof. Ivy’s lab. I’ll ask Brock about it tomorrow.

Another bad thing is Pikachu’s had her arm broken in battle last week. Nurse Joy’s told me strictly no battles for her until about two days before the league… oh well.

On a good note however, we’ve got a new traveling mate. She’s called Jo, and is entering the league too. What I found spooky was this…

-She’s from Cerulean

-She’s Ritchie’s twin sister

-She loves (that’s an understatement!) water Pokémon (This is where it gets real spooky…)

-Most of all, she was Misty’s best mate!!!

How weird is that!!! Apparently, her and Misty have been mates for years… around 9 or 10, but when Misty ran away from her sisters, the whole town assumed Misty was dead. That sums up why Misty’s sisters were erratic when we arrived the first time…

Jo’s Corsola is *really* strong!!!! Sorry, just thought I‘d say that. It was her Corsola who’s broken Pikachu’s arm…

Anyway, better go. Bye!

Dear Diary,

Well, here I am, halfway between Violet and Azalea, on my own Pokémon journey. It feels weird, but at least I’m not on my own. These kids who battled me when I was in the gym a couple of weeks back joined me- they’re called Beth and Mark. We’ve all beaten Falkner already.

I’ve got a starter pokemon off of Prof. Elm, along with a Pokédex. She’s a real cute Pichu! It’s so cute, and she’s even cuter when she’s playing with Togepi. She’s about 8 weeks old, and I’ve decided to ask Ash for a nickname to call it on my birthday.

Apart from that, I’ve already caught new Pokémon- Bellsprout, Qwilfish, and when I was at Cerulean Gym; my sisters gave me back my Horsea, to find it was a Kingdra!!! How on earth did they get hold of a dragon scale? I’m grateful anyways…

Not much else has happened; apart from I sprained my ankle falling out of a tree when a Caterpie decided to freak me out! -_-* God, I hate bugs.

I’ve phoned Ash a few times, and vice-versa. I’m missing him terribly, even the fights we have. I’m missing Brock too, but not as much as I am missing Ash… I don’t have the same feelings towards Brock as I do towards Ash.

Until next time, bye!

1st June 2002                                     ~*Days to Johto League… 73*~

 

Dear Diary,

Today, we began the trek to Indigo Plateau. We’ve just got past Tohjo Falls, and Pikachu went off looking around, sniffing. She’s acting weird at the moment…

Anyway, we’ve stopped off on Route 27 to have dinner. I’ve fought *twelve* trainers so far today, and haven’t lost once! Jo says I’m beginning to get bigheaded. Brock just says I’m constantly bigheaded… oh well. Tomorrow, Jo and me are having a three on three battle, like in the League. I can’t wait to see her team…

Oh, about two hours ago, we passed this really unusual Dewgong. It bobbed its head out the water, and its colours are so amazing! You know they’re usually white with brown eyes; well this one’s a really pale grey, with the most stunning blue eyes! Anyway, I remembered it’s Misty’s birthday soon, so I caught it for her. It’s lovely and affectionate. I think she’ll love it when she comes back… whenever that’ll be…

I’m going to go now, we’re getting to the nearest Pokémon Center for tomorrow ‘coz the Indigo League’s into the fifth round already!

Bye!

 

Ash

Dear Diary,

I’m fighting for the Hive Badge tomorrow! I’ve been gone for three weeks, and I’m already a quarter through the gyms!

My Pichu’s doing really well. Every time I leave a town, I need to get her checked on because she’s so young. She’s so cute!!! I’ve noticed that she acts a *little* bit like Ash’s Pikachu, but I think it’s just how the Pikachu family act. She’s beginning to be able to take the strain of shocking herself with electricity. I’ve decided that when we get to Goldenrod, I’ll call Ash to ask him to suggest a nickname. Wait, already put that last time…

Anyway, I’ve now got a Doduo, Abra and Vulpix in my arsenal of Pokémon. I’m going to start using in my team-

Togepi, Pichu, Poliwhirl (but he’ll be switched from time to time with the other Water pokemon), Doduo, Vulpix and Abra. It’s a well-balanced team, huh?

I need to go now. I’m getting my Pokémon treated for tomorrow.

See ya!

Misty xx

2nd June 2002              

 

Dear Diary,

This is going to be quick today.

We just got a call while watching the Indigo League that Misty’s been involved in an ambush by Team Rocket, and was brought into Goldenrod District. Apparently she’s in a coma, and is in really bad shape. We’re about to leave now, and we’re hoping to reach Goldenrod tomorrow morning at the latest. I’m going to phone Prof. Oak to see if he’s got a flying type that can take us on it.

 

Ash.

 

*12am*

I’m back. We’re on route 32, trying to sleep. I’ve got Pidgeot back, so Brock and me flew on him. Jo went on her Dodrio, because it’s so fast even though it can’t fly. Pikachu flew on Noctowl. The other two appear to be asleep, but I can’t stop thinking what’s going to happen to Misty. I partly want to know why exactly she’s in Goldenrod… anyways, can’t think of that now. I’ve got to think positive- for Misty’s sake, like Brock said.

He’s in shock about what’s happened, but when I told Jo, she burst out crying. She’s taken this badly. It’s probably because this is the second time Misty’s nearly died…

Anyway, I’m going to go now.

Bye,

Ash

 

*~*~*~*~*

 

There we are, I hope that’s filled in some blanks on the storyline! Did anyone see the England and Brazil match? Boohoo… ;_;sorry, I’m English, and when I turned up at school after the match this morning, even my German teacher had been crying… and he has no heart!

 

Everyone seems to know the score- they’ve seen it all before

They just know, they’re so sure;

That England’s going to throw it away,

Going to blow it away, but I know they can play;

‘Cos I remember…

* * *

3 Lions on a shirt;

Jules Rimmet still gleaming

30 years of hurt

Never stops me dreaming.

* * *

So many jokes, so many smears,

But all those ‘oh- so nears’

Wear you down through the years;

But I still see that tackle by Moore & when Linekar scores,

Bobby belting the ball, and Nobby dancing…

* * *

3 lions on a shirt,

Jules Rimmet still gleaming

30 years of hurt

Never stops me dreaming.

 

It’s coming home, it’s coming home, it’s coming…

 

Sorry, I just had to get that out of my system!

Now with this chappy over, onto the proper chapter!

Expect it soon!
