A New Evil, Part 5 "I hope this is worth my while, Gary Wolf. I have no time to deal with a foolish creature." Ghost snarled at Gray Wolf as he stood. Gray Wolf nodded. "It is, Master Ghost. I promise it won't fail us." Gray Wolf said. "Well, let's see it." Gray Wolf stepped aside to revel a cage that contained a strange Poke'mon. It had the head of a Jolteon, the body of a Flareon and the tail of a Vaporeon. Ghost smiled with happiness and evil at the same time. "Tell me more about it!" he growled. "It's name is Mixeon and it is very powerful. It has the element of fire, water and electricity. It is very hard to bet because even though fire hurts water and Mixeon's fire, it will not hurt Mixeon because he is water part. The only type that's strong agasined it is one that is storng agasined fire,water and electricity. But I'm sure there is no such thing as a Poke'mon like that." Gray Wolf explained. "Excellent Your success has proved to be great, Gray Wolf." Ghost praised. Gray Wolf bowed his head. "Thank you, Ghost. It is a great honor to sever you." Gray Wolf said. Ghost nodded and looked at the Mixeon. The Poke'mon looked up with a growl. "It won't come willing." Gray Wolf said. Ghost smiled with evil. "No matter. We'll just force it." Ghost answered. His eyes lit up with red. A red glow surrounded Mixeon. He yelped and growled and then was quiet. The red disappeared from both Ghost's eyes and Mixeon. A second went by for what seemed like hours. Mixeon suddenly opened his eyes and it had a red glow in them. The glow disappeared. "Now, Mixeon, your assignment is to work with Gray Wolf and destroy Tiger, Ash, Misty, Brock, Pikachu, and Gato." Ghost said. "Of course Master Ghost. It's a pleasure." growled Mixeon in a girl voice. "A girl, huh? Well, this will be perfect. Listen to me, Mixeon. I am going to transform you into a female Wolflithe. You go to Ash and his friends and make friends, get them to trust you. Then lead them deep into the forest and Gray Wolf will be waiting with some more Scale troops. You then will change back. Do we agree?" asked Ghost. "Yes. Betrayal is always a sneaky way. You think well. But before you do, can you get me out of this cage." Mixeon complained. "Very well. Gray Wolf? If you would." Ghost ordered. Gray Wolf went over and undid the cage with his claw. Mixeon stepped out. Ghost eyes lit up and Mixeon was engulfed in a white glow. When Ghost's eyes were normal, the white glow disappeared and reveled a young female Wolflithe. She was very pretty. Ghost smiled with evil, again. "I would love to watch this, but I have my work here. Gray Wolf, show, uh, Blizzard around." Ghost said. "Blizzard. That suits me." Mixeon nodded. Gray Wolf and Blizzard left. Ghost smiled and looked out the window. "Soon, I'll find you Inferno. And you and I will rule the world." Ghost growled to himself. Meanwhile, Ash and his friends were walking. They had all explained to Neon and Gato about what had happened. "So, your really humans? And Ghost turned you into Poke'mon? That's strange." Neon said. "Strange it definitely the word. Ghost has some cool, but evil, abilities." Gato agreed. Gato sat happily on Misty's head. Over a while, Gato had learned to cool down and trust them. She was nicer and Misty and Gato were becoming unsteprable. Pikachu sat on Ash's head and Neon walked next to Ash. Misty did as well and Brock walked behind them. Tiger was in front. "I want to know something. I have this paper that says that only one Wolflithe, Gray Wolf, Pink Wolf, Scale, Feather, Fireburn, Tropical, Clear, Rocky, Fairy, Ghost, Gato, Jessy, and Berry can talk only. How come you, Neon, can talk and how come the other Raptorex's talked?" asked Ash. "Well, we are all evil. Ghost used his powers to make us learn to talk. Gray Wolf already knew how and all the others, no clue. So your probably going to meet some other Poke'mon that usually can't talk that are evil along the way. Gato and Tiger, I have no idea how they talk." Neon explained. "I talk because I once was evil too." Gato stated. "What!?" cried Misty. "You were once evil?" asked Brock. "Yup. As a really little kitten, Ghost killed my parents and my sisters and brothers. He took me and raised me. I learned to talk and be a very strong Poke'mon. He raised me and I always believed that my parents left me. He found me, he said. One day, I herd Ghost talking and he told the whole story. The real story, to Gray Wolf. I was shocked and ran away. I have been fighting him ever since and have kept him away from humans. But he got strong suddenly and I was unable to stop him." Gato explained. "That's awful Gato. I'm so sorry." Misty said. Gato shrugged. "Forget. That's the past. This is now." Gato said. "What about you Tiger?" asked Pikachu. Tiger growled but they didn't 't see. "I just taught myself." Tiger answered. "I don't believe that." Pikachu teased. "Don't make me eat you." Tiger snarled. Pikachu was silent. "I guess Tiger won't tell us. That's all right." Ash said. They were silent the rest of the way. Suddenly, Gato's ears pricked up. "Hey! Stop! I herd something." Gato called out sudden. They all stopped. Tiger sniffed the air. "Gray Wolf! He's-AAAHHH!!" "Tiger!" Ash cried. Gray Wolf had appeared and had rammed his head into Tiger. Tiger was up in a flash. Before he attacked, a flash of blue and white hit Gray Wolf. Gray Wolf got up and growled. A female Wolflithe stood in front of Tiger. Gray Wolf snorted and ran off. The female turned to the friends. Tiger joined them. "Uh, thanks." Ash said. She smiled. "What's your name?" asked Brock. "I'm Blizzard. You are?" "I'm Ash. These are my friends, Neon, Gato, Misty, Brock, Tiger, and Pikachu." Ash said as he pointing from one friend to the other with his paw. "Nice to meet you all. I herd you were going agasined Ghost and that he turned you, Misty and Brock into Poke'mon. Am I right?" Blizzard asked. "Yup. How'd you know that?" asked Ash. "I over herd a Raptorex talking. I am also a human that was turned into a Poke'mon. When I herd you were going agasined Ghost, I thought maybe I could join you and become a human when you beat him, like you three." Blizzard said. "Well, I guess." Ash said. "I think its fine." Neon said. Every one nodded except Misty. Gato looked down at her. "You don't agree?" Gato asked. Misty didn't answer. She just followed as they continued. Ash told Blizzard what had happened to them and then Blizzard told them what had happen to her. "I was walking with my Pikachu one day and then Ghost appeared. He said that Mewthree has ordered to destroy me. Then, I was a Poke'mon. I'm not sure what happened to Pikachu or the others." Blizzard told them. "You like Pikachu's too?" asked Ash. "There my favorite" Blizzard exclaimed. That night, they found a spot near some trees and they all slept under them. Misty didn't sleep. She thought about Blizzard. If Ghost could turn people into Poke'mon, couldn't he turn other Poke'mon into different Poke'mon? Misty couldn't sleep so she pondered. She looked up suddenly and saw Blizzard and Ash gone. Curious, she got up and followed there sent to a near by river where they both sat. She hid behind a tree and down wind so they couldn't see nor smell her. "I wonder about Ghost. He seems to have everything planed." Ash said. "He is tricky. Very sly." Blizzard agreed. "What I want to know is who the neck is Mewthree and why he wants us." "That's what I want to find out too. I miss my friends and family and Poke'mon." Blizzard paused them burst into tears. "Oh Ash! Your so lucky that your friends are with you. I had no one as a Poke'mon and almost killed someone because of the mind of the Wolflithe." "It's all right Blizzard. Your with new friends. We'll help you all the way." Ash said to comfort her. Blizzard wiped her tears away with her paw and looked up at Ash, eyes still teary. "Thank you Ash. You are such and true friend. Maybe when were human, I could join you on your quest." Blizzard said. "Sure! Are you trying to be a Poke'mon Master too?" Ash asked. "Yes. But I hate going alone. Just me and Pikachu." "Me too. That's why I met Misty and Brock. To tell the truth, I didn't really plan on meeting Misty at all. She's just here for her bike. Brock came to make his own dream come true." "Really? Well, still, there your friends and would do anything for you, right?" "I guess." Ash looked into the river. "You guess? You mean, they wouldn't?" asked Blizzard, shocked. "Well, I don't know how my friend's minds work. So I don't know." Ash admitted. "Well, if there as good as friends as you are, then I'm sure they would." Blizzard said with a smile. Ash smiled back and looked back into the water. Blizzard lend and put her head on his shoulder. Ash looked embarrassed and sort of pulled away. "Uh, Ash? Do you mind is we take a short cut to Ghost's castle? I know one." Blizzard said. "Do I mind? Of course not! A short cut would be great!" Ash cheered. Blizzard smiled. "Cool. So I'll led tomorrow. And Ash?" Ash looked up at her. "Thanks for making me feel better. I have friends now." Blizzard said. She got up and turned. She then left with a swish of her tail. She walked past Misty, who just laid there. When Blizzard was gone, Ash flopped down on the grass and stared into the river some more. Misty hesitated to walk to him, but made her mind. She got up and came close behind him. "Ash?" she asked. Ash saw her reflection in the water. He sat up and turned quickly, not knowing she was so close. Misty didn't have time to step back and so, they touched nose's. They pulled away, both blushing badly. Misty stepped back a little. "Uh, sorry Misty. I didn't know you were so close." Ash said, still blushing. "That's okay. I shouldn't have stood so close. I'm uh, sorry too." Misty answered, still blushing as well. "We should go back before the others find us gone." Ash said. He walked past her and Misty followed. They both still were blushing a little. Blizzard had watched the whole thing from as soon as she left. She growled. "What a weakness to have. An such an easy one. I would have excepted more from you, Ash. You too Misty." Blizzard snarled. She quickly got back. She was fast enough to get there before them. they came in silently and Ash lied down next to a tree. Misty lied a next to him. They fell fast asleep. The next morning, Ash told them all what Blizzard had said and they all agreed. So they all followed Blizzard. Gato rode with Neon and Pikachu rode with Brock. Misty lagged behind. Ash trotted up be side her. "What's wrong? You don't seem yourself." Ash asked. "Huh? Oh! I just don't trust Blizzard. She seems awful strange to me." Misty answered. "Blizzard? I don't see that. Your just jealous because she's pretty." "What!? I am not!" "Are too! Don't deny it." "Are not! I'm not denying." "Are too!" "Why you little-! I'm going to strangle you!" Suddenly, Blizzard stopped. "What's up Blizzard? Danger?" asked Brock. "Close. But danger was always right under your nose." Blizzard said with a evil smile. Gray Wolf jumped down beside her. A bunch of Scales appeared behind them. Suddenly, Blizzard glowed white and changed. She was a Mixeon! Everyone gasped. "She's a Mixeon! No way!" cried Tiger. "I knew it! If Ghost can transform people, he can change Poke'mon!" Misty cried. "You tricked us!" cried Neon. "A little slow on the out take, are we?" growled Blizzard who was now Mixeon. Gato and Pikachu jumped off there rides. They all growled. "Attack!" cried Gray Wolf to the Scales. They all leaped. So did Ash and his friends. Neon was surrounded by Scales. He growled and disappeared. The Scales looked around. He suddenly appeared be hind them and used Psychic. Tiger jumped them and dodged there attacks. He used Torpedo to slow them and some other attack to destroy them. Ash, Brock, and Misty did the same. Pikachu shocked as many as he could. Gato jumped in a tree and jumped on on. She scratched it fast and repeatedly in a powerful Furry Swipes. The Scale was down. Soon, they all were. Ash and his friends all panted as Mixeon stepped in front of them. Gray Wolf smiled. "Who shall I destroy first?" asked Mixeon. "We choose that!" snarled Misty. Tiger leaped into the air and spun around really fasts in a circle. He became a blue and white blur. "One-Two Attack!!" Tiger cried. He slammed hard into Mixeon. She was able to still land on her feet. "Thunderthrower!!" Mixeon cried. She shot a bunch of lightning bolts out in a Flamethrower way. They all hit Tiger and he collapsed to the ground. Pikachu and Neon attacked. Mixeon used the same attack and brought them down. He did that same for Brock and Gato. They were all down. Ash and Misty growled. The others got up and went behind them, to weak to fight but okay. "Misty, you help the others. I'll take care of her." Ash said. "By yourself? You can't! She's too powerful!" Misty cried. "But she has a good heart I just got to help her find it." With that, Ash ran at Mixeon. Misty watched. "Be careful, Ash." she whispered. She went over to her friends. Ash stopped a few feet away. "Mixeon, or Blizzard, do you remember friends? We are your friends and still are. We will always be. Gray Wolf and Ghost are just using you for your power. You must find your good heart." Ash said. Mixeon growled and used Thunderthrower again. Ash got up still after that. "Mixeon, were your friends. Please listen." Ash begged. "Don't listen!" Gray Wolf cried. Mixeon's growl and snarl disappeared. "Ash... You are my friends. I'm so sorry." Mixeon said as she broke down. "NO! Shut up you idiot!" Gray Wolf cried. He raised his head and two lightning bolts struck both horns. The lightning bolts were huge and bigger than the ones that were used for Mega Torpedo. They were a lot bigger. His horns glowed and he pointed them at Ash. "Lightning!!" Gray Wolf cried. Two huge lighting bolts that where blue came out and hit Ash. There was a huge explosion of dust. "ASH!" Misty cried. Gray Wolf growled. "This isn't over yet!" he yelled. With that, Gray Wolf disappeared into the forest. they dust began to clear and the friends walked into the area, fanning dust from there eyes. They saw Ash on the ground. He looked like he was ducking. Mixeon was too. They friends approached them. "Ash?" asked Misty, unsure. "Are they alive?" asked Gato. Mixeon stood up and shook dust from her fur. Misty went over and nudged Ash with her nose. He opened his red eyes and looked up at her. "That was painful." he whispered. "Ash, are you okay?" Misty asked. Ash slowly got up and suddenly staggered to the right where Misty stood. Misty stood up next to him to help him stay up. "That sure looked like it hurt. Are sure your all right?" asked Neon. "He looks okay." Brock said. Ash nodded. He looked at Misty and smiled. Misty smiled back and blushed. Pikachu smiled and wiped a tear from his eyes. "I never thought I'd see the day." Pikachu sniffed. "What are you talking about?" asked Gato. "Well, its a long story." Tiger answered. He looked at them and smiled. Ash was able now to support himself. He looked at Mixeon and then at Misty. She smiled and nodded. Ash looked back at Mixeon. "Would you like to join us Mixeon?" asked Ash. Mixeon smiled. "I would. But I must tell you that I'm not human. I was lying." Mixeon said. "We know." Tiger said. Suddenly, black light came out from Mixeon's body and disappeared in the air. "The evil left. Mixeon is now good." Gato said with a smile. Mixeon nodded and then said, "Ash, I can't talk anymore. You just here me because your a Poke'mon. When your human, you will not here me. And, when your human Ash, I would like to go with you." Ash nodded. "Fine. You can be my Poke'mon. Welcome to the group Mixeon." Ash said. "Glad to have ya!" Neon said. "Better be ready for fights." Gato said. "Hi! I'm glad your here!" Pikachu said. "Welcome Mixeon. Your greatly excepted." Tiger said. "We just became stronger!" cheered Brock. Mixeon smiled and then they went back to were they had slept and followed the main path. They were almost there. In his castle, Ghost growled at Gray Wolf. "She's on there side! You've failed! This is your last chance Gray Wolf. If you fail me again, your gone. Permanently." Ghost snarled. Gray Wolf nodded and left. Ghost growled as he left. "This has been the last straw for Ash and his friends." Ghost growled. He then howled into the night.
