Pokeshipping Week 2017

Day1: Fishing

It was a warm morning in the Kanto region. The spring had just started a few days ago. Cherry Blossoms were beginning to grow on the trees. And after that freezing winter, recorded as highest since five years ago, it was a delight for all. Spring's here, why not go on a picnic?

That, was the case with Ash. He had insisted Misty a lot to go on a picnic with him. Honestly, who can waste such a day doing laundry and cleaning the house? And to top it all, it was Sunday. Was there anything more to say?

Eventually, Misty had obliged. But, her being her, it was she, who decided where they would go.

Ash yawned the umpteenth time, holding his fishing rod steady as he sat beside Misty - who was facing the other side - on the not so big motorboat, in the middle of the vast sea. Pikachu was lying beside her, helping them by shocking the Pokémons they pulled out. Of course, Misty had to go fishing. And all he had caught was five Magikarps. Five freakin' Magikarps! Seriously.

And Misty, oh, that's even worse. She let go all the Pokémons she had fished out back into the sea! Who even does that? Well, according to Misty, "You should always let go of the Water Pokémons you don't have the need of back into the water." Seriously? Who knows, maybe one of these Magikarps will become a strong Gyarados! Ash sighed. But for know, these Magikarps were going to be grilled and eaten. Ash licked his lips. He loved every kind of seafood if it was grilled or barbequed. And even more so when his Mom is the one to cook! Yummy. He was hungry now.

He groaned and said, "How long are we gonna be here, Mist?" Honestly, it's been two hours since they had came here! They were just off the coast of Pallet Beach. Misty was staying in his house for a month now. Technically, it was his mother's house, but anyway. (His was still being built, along the coastline, having perfect view of the sea, near Pallet Beach, choice of Misty of course.)

"Don't be such a kid, Ash." Misty said from beside him, "I already told you, we will go back when I am done with what I came here for." Oh, yeah. And what did she come here for again? Right. To capture a freaking Sharpedo! And why did she wanna catch a Sharpedo? "Because I don't have one. Plus, I only have Gyarados as a ferocious Pokémon!"

Ash was bored. Really bored. His mind drifted off to Gary and Leaf. The two of them were on the beach, enjoying and relaxing with each other. Having delicious snacks with them. Now that, is called a picnic. He had wanted something like that.

Suddenly, Ash's fishing rod started to dunk and move. Ash felt the vibration on his rod and immediately came to attention. "I've caught something!" Indicating to Pikachu to be ready and started pulling the Pokémon in. However, Pikachu had already fell asleep, which Ash didn't know.

Whoever the Pokémon was started going crazy and pulled, bringing Ash forward a bit. "Oh! It's something huge!" shouted, bringing Misty's attention, who looked at him. He stood up on the boat and started reeling and pulling slowly. But, the Pokémon pulled again. This time, Ash applied his full force and pulled the rod. Well, he was strong. The Pokémon got pulled and out of the water, shining in front of the sun. His color was Golden and was shaped like a little big Magikarp.

Ash grinned. "It's a Shiny Magikarp!" Misty shouted from behind him. Ash briefly looked as to where Pikachu is and his eyes widened. He quickly dropped his fishing rod and attempted to catch the Pokémon with his hands. It worked. The Magikarp landed directly on his hands. But, it slipped. Ash attempted to catch it again, but was unsuccessful. And after jumping around a bit, the Magikarp fell back into the water. Fishing 101: All sea water Pokémon are slippery.

Ash sighed and slumped down on the boat. He was tired now.

"It's okay, Ash. It happens." Misty soothed him.

"But it was a Shiny Magikarp, Mist! I could've trained it and had a Shiny Gyarados!" Ash said in frustration. Out of all the things, this happened to him? He looked over beside him where Pikachu was sleeping. Really now. He brought his hand forward and pinched him.

"Pika!" Pikachu shouted, waking up and took fighting stance immediately. Only to find Misty looking at him very wierdly and Ash smirking at him.

"Serves you right." Ash said, starting to pull up his lure.

Pikachu knew what he meant. He must've slacked off. He left him for now. They were in the water, plus he didn't want to hurt Misty. But, Ash was definitely going to get shocked today.

Ash finally pulled up his lure. Misty's eyes widened at its sight, "Wait." She said before Ash could keep his lure back. "Show me your lure."

Ash was too frustrated right now to comprehend the meaning behind this sudden interest. He just shrugged and gave it to his fiancée.

Misty marveled at it. She couldn't believe it. After all these years. She looked up at Ash with tears forming on her eyes. Ash looked confused. Misty lunged forward and hugged Ash, which Ash wasn't expecting, and the too fell down, lying on the boat. Misty on top and Ash beneath her. Pikachu didn't know what happened but he too joined the hug by sitting behind Ash's head. Misty rested her head on his chest and murmured something, which Ash couldn't hear.

"What did you say?" Ash asked.

Misty looked up at him, she was grinning widely and said, "You idiot. Why do you still keep my lure?"

Ash was confused, "Why wouldn't I? It was the last thing you gave me before we split apart. It holds precious memories. Just like your Handkerchief. Of course I would keep it." He said. Indeed, it was the first time Misty saw this after she had sent it to Ash. Of course she would be happy.

Misty leaned forward and kissed him. Ash kissed back. He figured she was happy. But, it didn't stop. The kiss started to get intimate a bit, involving tounges and their hands roamed around each other's body.

Pikachu rolled his eyes. Suddenly, something moving caught his eyes. He looked over to see Misty's lure going wild and the rod was starting to get pulled. "Pika!" He shouted and sent a current through Ash and Misty's bodies. They ended their kiss in shock - Ash groaning - and looked at Pikachu, who pointed at Misty's rod.

Misty looked at her rod and her eyes widened. She quickly scurried away and took ahold of her rod and pulled it. But, the Pokémon pulled back with a lot of force and Misty lurched forward. She looked forward and saw a fin pointing out of water. "Ash! It's a Sharpedo! Help me!"

Ash quickly on instict stood up and went behind Misty, encircling her under his arms and grasping the fishing rod behind her hands. How much Misty loved it when he did this cannot be described. But now wasn't the time for it. "Be ready Pikachu!" Misty shouted.

"Pika!" Pikachu rogered. He wouldn't let this one get away.

With all of their might, Ash and Misty pulled at once, which worked. A Sharpedo, slightly bigger than a normal one was pulled out of water.

Pikachu went on to the hood of the motorboat and charged his Thunderbolt, "Piiiiii-Kaaaa-Chuuuuuuu!" Large amount of thunder shot out of his body and hit Sharpedo mid-air fair and square. Pikachu jumped up with a Iron Tail and smashed it at Sharpedo's body just as it was falling. Sharpedo was knocked out then and there and fell down on the boat.

Misty immediately threw a pokeball at the unconscious Pokémon. Sharpedo was covered in a red light and went inside the ball. The ball shook a bit, Misty and Ash eagerly watching it and-

*Ding*

Ash sighed. Finally.

"Yay!" Misty cheered and briefly hugged Ash from the side, kissing his cheek before going back and picking up the pokeball. Pikachu jumped on her shoulder and licked her cheek. Misty turned around, "I caught a Sharpedo!" She said with a victory hand. "Pika!"

Ash laughed, "You definitely look and act like me now."

Misty giggled and Pikachu cheered.

Ash smiled and began to think it was worth coming here. Why? Because, he could see Misty so happy. And maybe because he can finally go home and eat something now.
