Part 1 The Sudden Attack “ Wow I can’t believe it has been so long since I started my journey and it isn’t even close to being done.” Ash said out loud as the group walked in a dark forest. After a few feet they came to a small clearing and Brock looked up at the sky. “ The sun is setting so why don’t we set up camp here for the night?” Brock asked Misty and Ash. They both nodded and walked into the clearing to set up camp. Misty walked to a near by tree and pulled out her sleeping bag. Pulling it out she didn’t know Ash was watching her. Misty had grown into a fine young and attractive women. Her hair had grown past her shoulder’s but she kept it only a few inches longer than her shoulders. She was a bit muscular than most women and she had become a better trainer. Brock started to pull out his cooking supplies when he looked over at Ash. He noticed Ash was watching her and he smiled to himself. “ Misty?” called Brock. Standing up she said “ Yes?” “ Will you go get some firewood please?” asked Brock. “ Yeah sure. No problem.” said Misty reaching into her bag. She pulled out 3 pokeballs and attached them onto her belt. “ Be back in a minuet.” Misty said before walking into the darkness. After she was out of sight Ash sighed and laid out his sleeping bag, close to the fire. He had grown quite tall for his age and was much more handsome than he was at 12. He was alot more muscular and he hadn’t gotten rid of that hat. Brock hadn’t really changed that much but he was taller and his voice was deeper. “ Ash what’s wrong?” asked Brock putting down his small cooking pot. “ I’m not sure that was such a good idea to send her alone into the woods Brock. You know...there is bug pokemon in this forest.” Ash said importantly. Brock said back “ You know she has gotten over her fear of bug pokemon and besides I think you just want to keep a eye on her.” Ash blushed and said “ That’s not true!” Brock started to giggle and Ash threw a pillow at his head. Bending down Misty picked up a stick and sighed. “ How long is going to take to find some wood around here?” Misty asked herself. Walking a couple feet more she saw another stick and bent down to get it. Then she felt something breathing down her neck. Turning around she looked and saw no one. She shrugged and bent down again only to feel it once more. She started to shiver and said to herself “ Calm down Misty. There’s no one there. Get a hold of yourself girl.” Then a pair of evil red eyes appeared in front of her. Misty was so shocked she dropped the sticks she was carrying and fell to the ground. “ Who are you? What do you want with me?” she asked but got no reply. The red eyes charged and Misty screamed, not knowing she dropped a pokeball. The sun had set and the stars were showing brightly in the sky when Ash said to Brock “ Misty sure has been gone a long time. Good thing you found some sticks near by before the sun set but what happened to Misty?” Brock had a worried look on his face and he said “ Maybe we should go look for her?” “ Pikachu pi pi pikachu. I sure hope Misty is alright.” Pikachu said. “ I hope so too Pikachu.” said Ash. Then Psyduck came running into the clearing, screaming it’s head off. “ Psyduck! What’s wrong?” asked Ash. Psyduck pointed into the woods and ran back into it. “ Psyduck wait up!” yelled Ash as he followed Psyduck with Brock and Pikachu close behind. Psyduck ran for minuets before he stopped at a small ditch. Pikachu stopped and started to have tears in his eyes. Ash finally got into view and looked down. There at the bottom of the ditch was Misty. Her face had scratches and cut all over. Her shirt was practically torn apart but somehow managed to hold together. Her arms were soaked in blood and so were her legs. Her body was all torn up and was bruised and worst off all he didn‘t see any signs of life. Ash couldn’t believe what he was seeing. “ No...no.... Misty!” Ash finally chocked out before he ran down the ledge. When he got to the bottom he dropped to his knees and picked her up, ands held her tight to his knee’s. “ Misty please...wake up...wake up Misty...” Ash cried. Brock bent down and felt her neck. “ She’s alive but she needs help. I have a medical kit back at camp. Come on.” Brock said before leading the way back to camp. Ash picked her up and followed Brock. Little did they know that a pair of evil red eyes was watching them. “ It has begun.” the shadow said coldly. Author Note: Well what do you think? Is it good or bad?
