Chapter 1 - Home Sweet Home
Knock knock! Ash Ketchum groaned.
"Five more minutes' mom!" croaked Ash.
"Come on Ash, your mother's making pancakes!" yelled an excited Brock, practically breaking down the door. Pikachu bounded in as well and Misty was behind Brock, feeding Azurill some milk from a bottle.
"You're not going to win Brock, remember how late Ash used to sleep when we were still in the Johto?" asked Misty, eyes clouding over for just a moment, with a very faint smile creeping on her face along with a malicious look hinting she had an idea.
"Yeah, we used to have to have Pi- …" Brock started, quieting, understanding where Misty was going with this.
"Hey Pikachu …" they whispered to the little yellow rodent. They whispered something inaudible in Pikachu's ear. A minute later, Pikachu jumped onto Ash's bed, making him groan again. Sparks started dancing on his cheeks; he closed his eyes and, "Piiiiiiikaaaaachhuuuuuu!!!"
"Neeeyaaah!" screamed Ash, jumping up as the shock from Pikachu's thunderbolt was quite the wake-up call. "Ok, ok, I'm awake!" cried Ash, his jet-black hair spiked more than usual from the shock. Misty giggled and Brock let out a great laugh. Even Pikachu and Azurill fell on the floor laughing. Ash, by this time was quite grumpy so he grabbed his towel and headed for the bathroom. Misty couldn't help but notice how much Ash had physically grown; his arms were a bit bulkier and without a shirt, you could see the developing abs' that were starting across his front. She blushed and turned her thoughts towards Azurill, picking her and her bottle up, and carried them downstairs into the kitchen.
Ash looked in the mirror. He looked like a regular Ursaring woken up from its hibernation. Ah well, might as well hurry up before Brock "flaps" down all of the flapjacks Ash thought. He brushed, rinsed, and took a quick shower. He quickly pulled on some jeans and a white T, and headed downstairs. Brock was taking Ash's job of stuffing his face, Misty was "daintily" eating her pancake, Delia was standing with her back to Ash, obviously making pancakes, and Pikachu was showing Azurill the pleasures of ketchup.
"Mornin' mom" Ash yawned. Brock and Misty looked up, Brock looking like a Munchlax that found its way into a kitchen.
"Good morning honey! Would you like some pancakes?" Ash's mom said asked him, giving him a hug, and setting down an orange juice at a seat next to Misty. Ash nodded and plopped himself down into the seat next to Misty. Azurill came bounding up to Ash to give him her "good morning" cuddle. Ash laughed and tickled the little baby. Misty watched fondly at both of them before getting up to put her dishes in the sink.
"I'm going to walk over to Cerulean to see my sisters today," said Misty pulling on her sneakers. "Ash, Brock, do you guys wanna come along?"
"A chance to see Lily, Daisy, and Violet…hm…will I go," Brock wondered aloud sarcastically. Ash laughed and Misty rolled her eyes. "What about you Ash?"
Ash looked over to his little yellow pal. "Pikachu, you up for a swim?"
"Pikachu pi!" yelled Pikachu excitedly.
"Ok, then, I'm going to go ahead and wait outside." Misty headed out the door after collecting her Azurill. Ash and Brock finished their pancakes while Pikachu finished his ketchup and they joined Misty outside.
"Now take care you kids, be back before dinner!" yelled Delia.
"Will do, mom!" Ash hollered back.
