{'And now we begin...}

"Ash."

Ash looked up from a hole. His was in pain and his arm was bleeding, his eyes couldn't see well. A groan from his left suggested that Pikachu was in the pit with him. "W-what happened?" he stammered. At last his eyes were working properly he stared up at the entrance of the hole and saw two faces up above. It was Brock and May he thought. As he recognized a boy with spiky black hair with a brown face and two slits for eyes and a girl with a fair face and a light brown hair and beautiful blue eyes wearing a bandana-type of hat.

"You fell in a hole, "Brock said "It was so big and visible we thought you could see it with your eyes open. So we-" May just interrupted Brock and spoke to Ash in a warm voice. "Oh! Ash your arm looks bad. Let me take a look at it after we get you out of there. And it's a good thing your Chikorita was with you and fell out of your belt pocket, " She added. In her hand was a pokeball with a four-point star. She tossed it in the air; a white light erupted from the pokéball, and a pokémon that looked like tiny dinosaur, had green dots coming out of it's neck and a leaf sticking out of his head, ("Hi,") the pokemon squealed.

Chikorita looked at Ash, (Ash! What are you doing down the hole?)

Ash coughed. We were sleeping. What else do you think I'm doing?" Ash said sarcastically, (Actually, we're trapped in the hole with no way out.) Pikachu yelled out. Chikorita saw Pikachu with Ash and became jealous of Pikachu. Chikorita nodded, it shot out two slender vines from its neck and grabbed both Ash and Pikachu from the hole. "Thanks, Chikorita." Chikorita simply nodded, (Will I be going back to Professor Oak's place?)

"Yea, you are, and so are Grovle and Swellow. Only Pikachu will be coming with me," Ash said as he stood up and brushed the dust off his clothes and cap.

(All right, then). Ash picked up Chikorita's pokéball and held it out in front of the pokemon.

"Chikorita, return," He said softly. A beam of red light shot out of the ball and it hit Chikorita, turned Chikorita red and turned into a formless ball and went back in the pokeball.

After a few minutes May was covering Ash's wound. Ash sighed, "Another day of playing around? Or shall we walk on to the next part of the Sotoenn league? You guys pick."

"Neither, Ash, let's rest for a while, my legs are dead tired." May replied when she had finished covering the wound.

"Alright then. We'll rest for a while." He lay down on the ground and placed his arms on his head looking up at the sky, "Another day has passed and I got only one badge. Of course, the badge means nothing to me now." Ash said softly.

May looked at him and smiled, "Well at least you caught a lot of Pokémon." She sat down. "That's better than getting a badge."

Brock looked at the two of them, "If you don't mind my intrusion on you two, I want to talk to Ash about something."

Ash and May looked at him. "Err ... okay, then." Ash said and stood up. May was still looking at Brock like he was a ghost. "What is it, May?" Ash asked. "Nothing ... it's just ... nothing." Ash raised an eyebrow, "Well, Okay. Bu- " before he could even finish his sentence Ash felt like he was being pulled away, which was what really is happening, Ash and Brock stopped by a tree, "What is it, Brock?"

"Ash, Misty called and she said she wants to see you in New Palroot town, where that Professor Fern was." He said.

Ash's face brightened up, "She is? Yes!!" Ash tossed his fist in the air.

Brock paused looking at the sky then-- "Does she know about May?"

Ash hesitated in the answer, "Yea, she does."

"This is not good," Brock grumbled and shook his head.

"What?"

"Well, I don't think Misty is here for you."

"What do you mean?"

Brock heaved a deep sigh, "How can you see May's not in love with you?"

"SHE'S WHAT?"

"In love with you"

"I know that but how? Why?" Ash asked

"I don't know how or why." Brock replied, "I only know that she loves you." Ash frowned

"And how do you know this?" Brock looked like he was thinking about something although it was hard to see from his mixed expression face. "She told me last night." He finally answered.

"Oh ... great. I get to see Misty again after five years and then someone has taken a liking to me." He fumed, "Okay, Brock, you're the 'love' expert here. What should I do?"

"Ash ... there's nothing you can do except choose which girl you want to make happy."

Ash dug his heel into the earth "Nothing?" Oh great ... Mist's coming in two days and I have no way to solve the problem. He added in his mind.

"Well ... I'm leaving you alone because I know you need the time to think. Bye. And think about this carefully." Brock said.

"Yeah ... bye, Brock." Ash replied in a sort of dead tone.

Brock went behind the tree and disappeared from view leaving him alone except for Pikachu.

"Pikachu ... " Ash suddenly said still in a dead tone. "Let's go away from here. Far away..." he covered his eyes by putting the brim of the cap down. Pikachu stood on all fours and shook his yellow head to Ash ("No! We're not supposed to go away! We're supposed to go back to the others!") But Ash ran out leaving Pikachu behind by the tree. Pikachu didn't want his trainer to do something drastic so he ran off to the far side of the forest not making a sound with his speed. Ash looked back to the camp side and shrugged, he turned his head forward again and sped off.

~*~*Later! Back at camp!!*~*~

"Brock, have you seen Ash and Pikachu lately?" May wondered where Ash and Pikachu had gotten to since it was getting late. She was worried about him. "No, I haven't seen hide nor hair of the pair" Brock replied.

"We better look for them, its getting late and dark," May said.

"You're right ... even though Ash can handle himself in the dark with Pikachu, we should still l ook for them." Brock said.

"Go ... Beautifly." May shouted out as she tossed a pokéball in mid-air. It burst open and a white light came out which formed the shape of a Butterfly, "Brii." It squeaked. "Okay, Beautifly use your flash attack now."

("Okay. Here goes.") Beautifly's body began to fill up with bright light. "Okay, now let's head into the forest." May yelled as she packed her things into her belt-bag, "Let's go Brock"

"Okay already but let me use my Crobat so we can go in the right direction," He didn't wait for an answer, he tossed a pokéball and out popped a Bat with four sharp looking wings and a sinister face. "Crobat, use your supersonic attack and find Ash." He pointed towards the lake. ("Okay.") Crobat said. It opened its mouth and a high-pitched sound came and then stopped, ("There!!") Crobat speedily flew into the deep forest. Brock and May sprinted after it with Beautifly flying in front lighting the path like a lantern. "I hope Ash is okay." May thought aloud.

~*~*By the lake deep in the forest where Ash is*~*~

Ash was leaning on a tree breathing deeply, his hat still covering his eyes as he put his head down. He kicked a pebble into the water "Life isn't fair sometimes." He said softly. "Not fair at all." A sigh left his mouth and he was feeling the cold air coming from the lake (What's the matter,Ash?) Pikachu looked at Ash with a worried look. Ash looked at Pikachu with a somber look. "Everything is the matter, Pikachu." He looked down at his feet again. "What can I do? Mist's says she's coming in a few days and May Loves me ... May will be as angry as hell and so will Misty." He stopped talking and walked towards the edge of the lake. "BROCK'S RIGHT I'll MAKE MY OWN DECISION. AND IF I CAN'T I'LL JUST JUMP OVER THE EDGE AND DIE." He shouted through the silence around the lake.

"Brock, did you hear that shout? It sounds like Ash." May said.

"You're right, and it sounded like he was going to jump over the edge of the lake. Quick, lets go. Pronto." Both of them ran very fast to where the shout came from. Crobat and Beautifly were in the lead."We're coming Ash." May and Brock both shouted...

Ash put a leg over the water "No, Ash, don't do it," Pikachu ran to his trainer and tried to pull him back by the leg," "(ugh...)"

"Pikachu, go 'way." Ash said in a deep voice. He heaved his body forward ready to dive before----

"ASH!!!"DON'T DO IT!"
