Phase 1: Reasons... Ash and Misty got up early. If there were to stop this wedding they'd have to work fast. Only 6days, 18 hours, 10mins, and 43 seconds exactly till the wedding, and they were only just starting Phase 1. As soon as Ash heard his mom awake, he gave Misty the thumbs up and followed her downstairs. "Hi Mom", said Ash as a fake yawn escaped from his mouth. "Hello Ash", Delia said in a stand up voice. "Mom, I have been thinking, your right, you should marry Tom, it's your decision anyway", said Ash as he sat at the dinner table. "Well thank you for your permission Ash", said Delia angrily, "The way you acted yesterday was totally and utterly disgusting, how dare you talk like that to Tom", said Delia. "Disgusting... oh your very right", said Ash with a *fake* agreeing voice, "In fact I have decided that it would be kool to have Tomas a father". "I am glad you realize that", said Delia sitting next to him. "But...", said Ash "But what?", asked Delia in a *what are you getting at* voice. "I have a few concerns", answered Ash. "Like...." "What if you have another child... you don't have a job, and Tom's pay check from his Gym certainly wouldn't be able to up hold a new baby", said Ash. "Well we just... hm, I haven't thought of that", said Delia. "AND, you know very well He has an EX wife", says Ash. "So what?, I have an EX husband", says Delia. "Ya but Dads, gone far far away, Mrs. Waterflower, is only a few cities away what if she comes and pesters you or decides she wants Tom back?", asked Ash. "Ash hunny, that's in movies, we are talking real life here", laughed Delia, "Anything else before I go take a shower?". Ash thought for awhile. "Well you DO realize that you will then have 1 real son, and 4 step daughters right?", asked Ash with a smug little grin on his face. "So?'. "Well Misty's sister's don't have jobs so they'll be coming to you guys for money, I get money off you ever 2 weeks, and now Misty, she'll need some 2 weeks also, and if you have a new baby, you done for", said Ash Delia cringed thinking of all the money she'd be giving away every few weeks. "I have to admit, you have a point... I suppose, I'll have to talk to Tom about this matter...Oh my', sighed Delia. "Now, aren't you happy we had this talk mom?', asked Ash. "Thank you for bring that to my attention Ash... ", Delia said Ash she went to talk a shower. Ash smiled, and turned to see Misty, Brock and Lila standing at the door. "What are you doing Ash?", asked Brock in a *I can't believe your doing this* type of voice. "I am fixing a few things", said Ash. "Looked to us like you were trying to ruin you moms wedding", said Lila, Misty bit her lip and shrugged at Ash. Ash began to feel uneasy. 'hey I made a good point", said Ash walking into the living room. "Ash...", said Brock following him, "You two don't truly think you can stop this wedding do you?", sighed Brock. 'Actually yes", said Ash as he turned on the T.V. A familiar voice was heard from behind. "hello Kids", said Tom, "How are you today?". Misty looked at Ash and gave him the thumbs up signal she was beginning her part of phase 1. "We are just fine daddy, and I am so for the way me and Ash acted Yesterday", said Misty. "No, it's ok, i realize that you were just acting on your instincts to rebel", smiled Tom. Ash gave Misty a smug little smile. "Oh no...", sighed Brock. "daddy can we talk...please", said Misty with puppy eyes, No one, not even Ash (who could resist almost anything)her puppy eyes. "Ah...well...sure", said Tom giving into her. "Dude, don't do this", Brock whispered to Ash. "You would have done the same for Lila, I know you would", said Ash "WHAT?! so your finally listening to me, AFTER 5 YEARS", said Brock totally surprised and unbelievingly. "Yep", smiled Ash as he turned around to watch t.v. Meanwhile in the kitchen Misty is working on her dad. "I was thinking about how I acted last night, and I am very sorry, so is Ash", said Misty. 'It's fine, like I said, you two are blinded by love, you don't actually realize that you'll probably never get married", said Tom "WHAT, holds the phone, you realized you wanted to marry mom at 12!!!!! So you can't talk", shouted Misty. "Now Pumpkin, calm down, If you have noticed your mother and me are divorced now", said Tom "Ya, because you had financial problems", said Misty angrily. "Yes but that came from...from", Tom stopped and realized what he said made No sense what-so-ever. "See dad, it wasn't falling in love too young that ended your marriage, and what if it doesn't work out with Delia...?',asked Misty. "See Misty I have stronger feelings for Delia then I ever did for your mother", said Tom. "What about money, you have to give my sisters money all the time, and you have to give me some every two weeks so I can survive, and that's what started the divorce, and now your gonna have to send money to Ash also... and you and mom both had a job, Delia can't because she has had to many strokes, and what'll you do if you have another child.... dad you just don't got enough money for this", said Misty. "well your right, I'll have to talk to Delia about that... ", said Tom. "Oh...Oh, and what about the wedding who's paying for that?", asked Misty "We are why?", asked Tom "Well that's another couple of hundred out your pocket, sorry dad but it seems this relationship probably won't work out", said Misty with a *fake* sad sigh. "I guess me and Delia will have to talk this though later, thank you for bringing this to my attention sweetie", said Tom as he got up an headed up stairs to get dressed (he was in his PJ's). Ash appeared at the door. "Well??", He asked. "Well I think we may just need to forget about Phase two because....I THINK THAT'S IT", said Misty with glee. "Alright, but we better not forget yet, nothings official until we see sad faces", said Ash. 'I feel a little bad, but...oh well ", sighed Misty. Later that Night during Tom and Delia's little talk.... "Tom, I was thinking and well, what are we going to do about money now that we are giving 5 kids about 100 dollars each ever 2 weeks...and if we have another child... then we are done for", sighed Delia. "yes I was thinking about that also, and I have solved that problem", smiled Tom. Ash and Misty were hiding outside the door and were listening to the conversation. "How?", asked Delia with a hopeful tone in her voice. "My ex- wife May, will be paying for Daisy, Lily, and Violet, the only two we worry about is Ash and Misty", smiled Tom. 'ya put...what if we have another child". "Then I'll just have to get a higher paying job", smiled Tom, 'don't worry, I have got all the little nucks and crannys sorted out, nothing can go wrong Delia", said Tom as he and Delia hugged. "Well almost everything...", said Ash and misty in union, with evil little grins on their faces.... "you forgot about us, we have plans", Misty said as she and Ash smiled evily.
