Hey everyone! I think this is my best story and I don’t like how it’s in 
script format so I’m re-doing it. Enjoy!

	Ash, Misty, and Brock were walking through a desert canyon. Unfortunately 
for them, it was the hottest day of the year. There wasn’t a hint of wind at 
all and the sun, high in the sky, beat down on them with sun ferocity that 
they felt like they were going to melt.

	“This heat is really bothering me.” Ash said sluggishly while using his 
Pokedex to fan himself.

	“You’re not the only one. Not only do we have to worry about this heat, but 
we also have to worry about those rocks at the top of the canyon. They could 
tumble down on us at any minute.” Misty replied. They all looked up at the 
top. Not only were there rocks on the top of the canyon, there was a fair 
number of them on the edge of numerous cliffs.

	“I can’t take it anymore. Misty how hot is it?” Brock asked. Misty dug 
around in her backpack and tugged out a thermometer. She looked at it. They 
could see it was rising higher and higher. She finally sighed and pushed it 
back in.

	“It’s says 112 degrees.” She told them. Ash groaned.

	“It wasn’t this hot until we entered the canyon. It was like 95 or 
something!” Ash exclaimed. Ash shouldn’t have shouted. Just then they heard 
a rumbling sound as 5 humongous rocks came flying down towards them. Ash 
didn’t waste any time. He whipped his wand out of his pocket and pointed it 
at the rocks.

	“IMPERIVOUS!!!!!!!!!!” Ash shouted. A beam of light blue light soared out 
of the wand and broke the rocks into tiny fragments which rained down on 
them lightly. Brock and Misty were dumbstruck.

	“Ash! That was amazing!” Misty exclaimed.

	“Thanks Misty.” Ash said as he re-pocketed his wand.

--Skipping ahead to September 1—

	“Pikachu? Where are you? It’s almost time to leave!” Ash shouted. Pikachu 
came bounding out of the tent with a tiny black cape on.

	“Ash, be careful this year. Don’t go getting killed or anything okay?” 
Misty said as Ash pulled his robe on. Brock nodded. Ash smiled at them.

	“Don’t worry guys. I’ll look out for myself.” He said. He smiled as Pikachu 
jumped up onto his shoulder. He grabbed the Portkey and immediately flashed 
out of sight. Brock’s eyes suddenly widened with surprise.

	“Oh great.” He said, slapping his head.

	“What?” Misty asked, turning to him.

	“Ash forgot to leave his Pokemon here!” Brock exclaimed. Misty’s eyes 
widened.

	“You don’t mean that-.” Misty began. Brock cut her off.

	“Yep. He took his Pokemon with him.” Brock said.
