It was a cloudy night as Ash and Pikachu sat on the couch watching a movie. Ash was in his pajamas with Pikachu next to him. Soon, the movie was over. Delia, Ash's mom smiled.
"Hey Ash, Pikachu, would you like to hang out before bedtime?" Delia asked kindly.
"Sure mom. Come on, Pikachu!" Ash said before the three family members went upstairs to Delia's bedroom. They all sat on the bed, excited about spending time together.
"So, what did you have in mind, mom?" Ash asked. Delia smiled.
"I was thinking of telling you and Pikachu a story," Delia answered. Ash gave his mom a confused look, and Pikachu did the same.
"What kind of story, mom?" Ash asked curiously.
"A ghost story," Delia answered. Pikachu's ears went up.
"Pi!" Pikachu said in a surprised voice. Pikachu was a little scared of ghost stories. Ash looked down at his pokemon friend.
"Don't worry buddy. I'll be here," Ash said, petting Pikachu and giving him a hug. Pikachu hugged Ash back until they separated from the hug, and Ash put Pikachu on his lap.
"This ghost story won't be really scary, will it mom?" Ash asked nervously. Delia smiled again.
"No sweety. But I think I'll turn the lights off, just for the fun of it," Delia replied before grabbing a flashlight. She turned the flashlight on and turned the bedroom lights off. She also slightly closed the door, that way light still came in, but but the room wasn't pitch black either. Delia shined the flashlight on Ash and Pikachu, so they could see. She brought the flashlight over to them, and placed it in the middle of the bed. The light shined around them and on the ceiling, as Delia began her story.
"Once, there was a Pikachu, and his friends. They lived in a house, and it was said the house was haunted with ghosts!" Delia said. Pikachu hugged Ash, slightly nervous. Ash held Pikachu gently. Delia continued her story.
"It stormed outside, and just as the Pikachu and his buddies were hanging out, Thunder roared! Then, some ghosts appeared! The Pikachu and his friends were scared, and ran away! But the ghosts chased them!" Delia said. Pikachu hugged Ash as Ash hugged back.
"The Pikachu and his buddies ran around the house, trying to escape the ghosts! Unfortunately, some of them would get into silly mayhem, and mistaken their friends for ghosts! The Pikachu and his buddies still remain in the house to this day, trapped by the old house and the ghosts..." Delia said, making a spooky face.
"Pika," Pikachu said nervously, hugging Ash. Delia smiled, and pet Pikachu.
"It's okay, Pikachu. You're safe. Besides, it was just a story," Delia said kindly. Pikachu smiled and hugged Delia. After the story, it was time for bed.
