Wanting To Rule Pikachu Part 3 Original Date-Saturday September 13, 2003 Monday August 23, 2004 Looks like I’m on a role with revising. It’s not too hard. I’m basically going off of the old parts and adding in new things. Well, enjoy! Ash awoke the next morning to Pikachu nibbling on his nose. The bright autumn light was streaming through the window onto his face which didn’t help him get back to sleep. “Okay. I’m up.” Ash said groggily as Pikachu kept pushing its tail onto his nose. Wiping Pika-hairs off of his nose, he looked at the table next to him and saw his Pokeballs. He grinned and grabbed 3 of them and quickly hurried downstairs. Pikachu bounded along with him. He found that Hermione, Harry, and Ron were already sitting in The Common Room. A plate of French toast was also by them. “Hey Ash! We figured you’d get up late since there are no classes today. So we bought up some breakfast for you.” Hermione said happily. Ash smiled. “Thanks guys.” Ash said with a smile. He sat down a quickly ate breakfast while Hermione and Ron were in a debate about which of their arm chairs were better. “This one is more comfortable than yours. I’ve tried it and its b-a-d!” Ron said. Harry and Ash’s eyes met and they rolled their eyes. They were used to their squabbles. Finally, Ash finished breakfast and stood up. He shoved a Pokeball into Hermione, Harry, and Ron’s hands. “Err, what are these things Ash?” Hermione asked him. “They’re Pokeballs. They hold my other Pokemon.” Ash explained. Ron was studying it, trying to figure out what it did. “Weird things. How do they work?” Harry asked. Ash grinned. “Throw them and you’ll find out.” Ash replied. Hermione looked unsure. “Throw them? Are you sure Ash? Wouldn’t it hurt the Pokemon inside?” She asked. Ash shook his head. “Trust me. I’ve done it many times. It doesn’t hurt them. Just believe me okay?” Ash said. Hermione shrugged and lightly tossed hers onto the ground. Ron and Harry did the same. Hermione gave a happy shriek when Cyndaquill popped out of the one she tossed. Harry got Todidile and Ron got Bayleaf. “IT’S SO CUTE!” Hermione squealed as she picked Cyndaquill up and put it on her lap. The flames on its back exploded which shocked her a bit. “Don’t worry. It won’t hurt you.” Ash said. Ash looked over to find that Bayleaf kept knocking Ron down onto the ground every time he got back up. Finally he just stayed down and watched Todidile repeatedly squirt water into Harry’s face. “I think, uh, Bargweaf likes me.” Ron said. “It’s Bayleaf Ron.” Ash corrected. “Todidile isn’t too fond of me.” Harry said as he was now soaked. Finally after about an hour, Ash returned his Pokemon just as an owl flew in through the open window and dropped the Daily Prophet onto Hermione’s lap and she tore it open. She took a glance at the front page. “Uh oh. Not good.” She said. “What is it?” Harry asked. Hermione read it out loud. “Ministry of Magic officials have released to the general magical community that You-Know-Who has broke out of Azkaban and is on the run. No one knows what he has set out to do but it can be nothing good. “He is likely plotting to regain all his followers and is likely to pull another attack soon,” said a Ministry official yesterday. It wouldn’t be the first as he has already launched two attacks at a boy called Ash Ketchum over the past 3 years. There is a matter of concern for the school though. Recently when Minister Cornelius Fudge went to Azkaban for the monthly expection, You-Know-Who told him point blank that when he broke out, he would destroy Hogwarts and said he wanted “more revenge.” Obviously, no one knows what he could do, but precautions are being taken.” Hermione read. Ash’s mouth dropped open. “Broke out?” Ash asked. “Doesn’t look like this is going to be a fun year.” Harry said. “Not with You-Know-Who on the loose.” Ron added. To be continued… You like? Review!
