POISON'S ATTACK cried Icy as she flew in as Articuno. She landed on her tree and screeched. Everyone jumped up with a start. Misty sat up and rubbed her head. "Did I fall asleep here?" she asked. Tiger smiled. "You didn't sleep walk." he answered. The other friends came running. All as humans. They went to the tree and Misty stood up to join them in a group. Tiger, Gato and Pikachu joined as well. Brock came shortly after and stood beside Misty. Icy changed into her human form but stayed on the tree. "What good news, Icy?" Emerald asked. "I have good news as well." Ruby said. "Great! Something's good are happening for once." Gato cheered. "Go first, Ruby." Icy offered. "Thank you. Now, I woke up last night and found that the herbs Pikachu brought in were the herbs I needed to make Ash better. I gave him them that night and he should be okay by today." Ruby said with a smile. "Oh Ruby! That's great!" Misty cheered. She picked up the little yellow Poke'mon. "Good job Pikachu! You found the right herbs!" "Pikachu!" "Well, the little mouse had to be good for something." Gato mumbled under her breath so no one would here. "That's great news Ruby! I'm very glad to here it." Sara said. "Now, what about you Icy?" asked Emerald. "Well, I left early this morning to check on Mewthree and all. He wasn't there but I herd some of his troops talking. They said that Mewthree would be in real trouble if the Poke'mon Queen and her friends showed up. So if we find the Poke'mon Queen, we'll win with a 100 percent chance!" Icy cried happily. "That's great! All we have to do is find her!" cried Gato. Everyone cheered. In the shadows near the cave, Poison watched. "You had better cheer now. Cause when I'm though with you, won't be cheering." he growled. He turned and ran. Suddenly, a lightning bolt struck the ground in front of him. He staggered back and looked up into a tree. A figure sat. "What do you want?" he asked. "I'm here to watch you fail." came the reply. "Your in for a surprise then." Poison answered. "I'm afraid you are going to be the surprised one." her voice answered. Her voice was evil. Not a sign of anything but evil in it. "Mewthree may like you the most, but I still rule." Poison growled. "We'll see, Poison. We'll see." she growled. Poison growled and ran away. Meanwhile, everyone was in high hopes. Ruby was helping Ash while the rest were getting ready for Poison to make his move. Tigress said. They both were Wolflithes and training. Tigress explained. Tiger yawned. "I know that move myself. I can also block it." Tiger said. Tigress said. Tiger fell to the ground with a tear drop on his head. "Okay then, listen good." Tiger said after recovering. They all went on with training. Ruby, meanwhile, had healed Ash. He was awake and sitting up. "Well, you'd had better be thankful that Pikachu found those herbs for ya." Ruby said. "You bet I am." Ash agreed. "You bet you should. Pretty soon that stuff is going to were off and you'll be weak." came a snarling voice. They all looked over in the cave. "Poison?" asked Ruby. "Close, but not right." it growled. Ruby stomped the floor in anger with her hoof. "Get out of here Rose!" she snapped. A Poke'mon wolf stepped from the shadows of the cave. It looked like a Fireburn excepted pink and white. A Pink Wolf. The creature was in bad shape. It was missing its left eye and was close with a scar. It's fur was ratty and tore. It was an old Pink Wolf. "You all act tough and like your going to win. I doubt it. You will never bet Master Mewthree." Rose growled. Ash was confused, but not for long. "We are going to bet Mewthree! You watch!" Ash said. Rose twinkled in her eye. "I bet you are. And I'm watching. I've been watching you, Ash." she said. She turned and disappeared out the cave door. "Who was that?" asked Ash. "Rose. An old worrier of Mewthree. We set her free from the evil, but I still don't think she's good. We think she is a spy." Ruby said. "What if she see's us training or our plans?" Ash asked. "We know to be careful around her. That's not important. Can you walk?" asked Ruby. Ash stood up and took a few steps forward. "Yup." he answered. "Good." Ruby said. "What did Rose say? This stuff is going to ware off?" asked Ash. Ruby hung her head. "It will recover you for now strongly. But it will ware off, making you weak. I gave it to you so you would be ready for the fight." Ruby said. "Fine. I understand. But when dose it ware off?" Ash asked. "I don't know." Ruby admitted. He got up and Ruby followed. They stepped into the sunlight. "Pika pi!" Pikachu jumped into his trainers arms happily. Tiger ran to him. "I thought you were done for, buddy!" Tiger said happily. Ash laughed. "Thanks a lot, Tiger!" he said. He patted his friends on the head. The others went to him. "I'm glad your well, my friend." Brock said. Ash nodded. Misty came up to him. "Look, Misty. I'm... sorry." he said. Misty smiled, tears in her eyes. "I'm just glad your okay." she whispered. She threw her arms around him and hugged him tight. Ash hugged her back. Tigress smiled. she said. Gato and Pikachu exchanged smiles. Tiger smiled and nodded in agreement to Tigress. Everyone smiled. They were ment to be. And finally, maybe, they could say it. Misty and Ash both turned away and blushed. "It's so sweet. I think I'm going to throw up." came a snarling voice. They turned and saw Poison. He was with fifty or more troops of Scales. "Poison! You cheater!" cried Emerald. "I never keep my word. Scale troops, attack!" cried Poison. Tigress quickly changed and they all went into battle. Tiger, Pikachu and Gato joined. "We can help too. Vulpix, go!" Brock cried. "Vul!" Vulpix appeared. "Jolteon, go!" Jolteon appeared. "Vaporeon, attack!" Vaporeon appeared. The battle raged and Poison watched. He stood at the sidelines with a sly smile on his face. Ash saw this and go worried. He looked at the battle. A Scale bit down hard on Tiger. He kicked him off with his back feet. Gato slashed with her claws and whipped with her tail hard. A Scale grabbed her tail and slung her into a tree. Pikachu shocked everywhere but soon fell. Emerald and her friends had turned into Poke'mon and also were getting beaten badly. Vaporeon rubbed her head agasined Jolteon. She was afraid. Jolteon did the same to her. Vulpix then ran into the battle. Jolteon and Vaporeon nodded to each other and did the same. Ash saw Poison began to slink away. He had a plan. "Tiger! Get Poison!" Ash called out. Tiger saw him and ran. He was faster than Poison, but Poison was stronger. Purple lightning bolts exploded from Poison's horns. Tiger was hit. He fell to the ground in pain. Poison went shooting off. Tiger was up and followed. A blast of ice suddenly chilled the air as Icy's Ice Beam attack drove some Scales away. Ash saw they were winning. Suddenly, just like that, all the Scales were gone. Emerald and her friends changed into there humans. Mewgirl floated around and then looked over to Tiger and Poison. Tiger suddenly ran into view with Poison. The ten friends made themselves ready. Tiger, Pikachu and Gato got back to there trainers. They were too weak for the final battle. Ash, Misty and Brock recalled there other Poke'mon. $ & ' $ "You are a cheater Poison. We will now destroy you." Persia growled. "You wish." he snarled. Icy flew into the air and shot her hands forward. "Icy Beam Blast!" she cried. A huge blue beam shot out her hands. Poison jumped away and it missed. Poison turned to them all and suddenly shot little blue darts out his mouth. It hit them all somewhere. The friends began to sink to the ground. "Poison Darts! They've been poisoned!" cried Brock. "Oh know!" Misty cried. Tiger growled and ran toward Poison. He rammed his head hard into Poison's side. He went flying back and into a tree. "Tiger! Your too weak!" Ash cried. Tiger panted. "I'm not giving up." he gasped. Poison was up and smiling. "This should be fun." he growled. He ran at Tiger. Tiger jumped away and Poison missed to hit him. Blue lightning bolts exploded from Tiger's horns. It was a miss! Poison was fast as well. Poison was in the air. He shot little blue darts out his mouth at Tiger. Tiger leap and dodge them all. All but one. It hit him hard in the right leg. He collapsed to the ground. "Tiger! Return!" Ash called. Tiger disappeared into his Pokeball. "This won't go well." Gato said while perched on Misty's shoulder. Poison advanced towards them. Pikachu leaped inside Misty's backpack. "You will die just like your friends." he growled Ash then saw something Poison didn't. "That's what you think. Catch me if you can!" he said. He ran left and away from his friends. Poison growled. "I'll get your friends first. There easy targets." he snarled. Ash laughed. "Just say that your scared to try and chase me." Ash said. Poison growled and came towards him. "What is he doing?" Misty asked Brock. Brock saw it too. "Come on. He has an idea and we have to help." Brock said. They all disappeared into the cave. Poison growled and shot purple lightning bolts. Ash dodged. "You have to do better than that!" he cried. Poison did it again and missed. He began to go faster and faster. he hit Ash a few times but he never stayed down long enough for another attack. Ash then stood near the ten friends. Poison fired. Ash dodged and the attack hit Emerald and her friends. At that same time, Brock ran out of the cave with a bottle of Potion. He threw it to Ash. He caught it and poured it on Emerald and friends. In a flash, they were up. Poison gasped. "But, how?" he cried. "You forgot team work." Misty said. "Water Power!" cried Emerald. She shot her hands forward and a blast of water came out. It was stronger than Hydro Pump! It smashed into Poison hard. He staggered back near a fast running river with a waterfall at the end. Sara ran forward and raised her hand up. "River of Force!" she called. The river behind Poison raised itself high and crashed onto him. When the water was gone, Poison was beaten to the ground. "Pichu! Water and electricity don't match! Go a head!" Emerald yelled. A yellow ball appeared in Pichu's hands. "Thunder Spark!" she cried. Lightning bolts burst from the yellow ball. They all shocked Poison good and hard. He cried in pain and then was silent. All was still. Ember stepped up slowly. "Is he..." Misty asked. "No." Ember whispered. "What!?" cried Ash. Poison leaped up. "Poison Gas!" he cried. He let out green gas that surrounded them all. They all chocked and were brought to the ground. Poison stepped threw the gas and towards them. Ash was able to throw a Pokeball in the air. Pidgeot appeared. "Gust!" he coughed. Pidgeot flapped his powerful wings hard. The gas disappeared. Pidgeot then landed behind his trainer. They all were up. "You can't get me away that easy." Poison growled. Ash was mad. They had shocked him and deranged him. Surely that would have done it. "Back out while you can. We don't want to hurt you." Emerald said. "Do us all a favor." Growly growled. Poison smiled. "I won't back down. For Master Mewthree, I'll fight to the death!" he cried. "It seems that's what you've chosen." Mewgirl said sadly. Sparks flew from Pikachu's cheeks. Gato stepped forward with her claws ready. "This will be more than a challenge." Misty whispered to Ash. "I know, but we have to try." Ash whispered back. "Your move." Poison said slyly. Poison! You are a fool! came a voice. They all looked over behind Poison to see white light. Mist was there. She glowed with an angry light more than sad. "Mist. You dare show your face again to me?" Poison growled. I do! she said. She pointed her claw at Poison and shot a white beam. It hit him good. He flew back and landed in the river with a splash. He was washed down. He tried to swim but couldn't. They all turned away as he disappeared down the waterfall. Mist turned to everyone with a smile. Ash had never seen her happy. Misty had. "You again." Misty and Ash said at the same time. They looked at each other and then back at Mist. You both saw me. I told you so, Misty. And Ash, can't you see what you have to live for. Mist asked. Ash and Misty nodded. Pikachu jumped into Ash's arms and Gato purred near Misty's ear. Ash looked at his friends. Emerald, Mewgirl, Pichu, Icy, Tigress, Sara, Growly, Persia, Ruby, Ember, Misty, Brock, Pikachu, Gato, Tiger and many more. His friends. Ash smiled. "Thank you Mist." he said. Mist smiled. I will always be watching you Ash. Every step of the way. Remember, I'm there. Mist said. She then disappeared. After recover, which took a day, they all knew there plan. Ash, Misty, Brock and there Poke'mon stood on the beach were they had first been brought. Phoenix and Pidgeot stood there, ready to take the trainers across the sea and back to the main island. Emerald and her friends stood across from them as humans. "Good luck on finding the Poke'mon Queen. We gave you the best places to start your search." Emerald said, her Dragonair tail wrapped around one leg. "Thanks for everything Emerald. We promise we'll return with her." Ash said. "Be careful. Mewthree's next bad troops are after you." Ember warned while her tail blew in the wind. "So always be on guard." Mewgirl said from the air. "We will." Misty said. "We will keep fighting here, but you will have your own battles." Tigress said with her tail and hair blowing to one side. $ "Mewthree will be destroyed once we find the queen." Pichu said twitching her Pikachu ears. "So, until then, see ya!" Sara said moving her Vaporeon ears forward. "Good bye! It was nice to have met you!" Brock called as he got on Pidgeot. "I'll miss you all!" Gato called. Ash and Misty got on Phoenix with there two Poke'mon. "Good bye." Ash whispered. The two bird Poke'mon flapped there wings. "Be careful!" cried Growly she waved. The Poke'mon flew off. "Think they'll be okay?" asked Icy from the air. "They will." Persia agreed. Ruby watched them. "No, they won't." she said. To be continued...
