I'm so happy now! I have stared writing my first story! I hope you think it's good! Please note, in this story, Piplup is a girl. I own no characters or pokémon in this story. I hopefully will write some more stories after this one. I at least hope someone reads this…
Ash Ketchum was walking through Mt. Moon. He was heading toward Cerulean City.
It had been four years since Ash challenged the Sinnoh League.
Misty had called Ash, Gary, Brock, Tracey, May, and Dawn to come to the gym for a little reunion. She offered Max to come, but he wanted to train.
Ash was now 17 and much more mature than when he started his pokémon journey. He had raven black hair and was wearing a black t-shirt and jeans. He had some more muscle than four years ago.
Ash still had his trusty pokémon, Pikachu, ride on his shoulder.
Soon, Ash thought, soon I'll be able to see my friends again.
Ash had talked to his friends over the phone, but never got to see them.
After Ash beat the Sinnoh League, everyone went their own way.
Dawn went to do the Johto contests, May went to do the Sinnoh contests, Gary went with Dawn to do research (supposedly), and Misty and Brock went back to their gyms. Ash went to Pallet town to live and help out his Mom and Mimey.
"Pika pi," Pikachu said.
"I know, Pikachu. We're going to have a good time."
Ash finally managed to come out of Mt. Moon. He could see Cerulean City in the distance.
"There it is, Pi. Cerulean City."
Not long after he said this, Ash and Pikachu heard and felt a rumble.
Then, a giant steel snake blew out the side of the mountain, with a certain rock-type breeder on top of it.
Brock Stone jumped of Steelix and landed in front of Ash.
"Hey there, Ash," Brock said.
"Hello, Brock. How's the gym doing?"
"It's doing well. Right now Dad's running it."
"OK. Ready to head down?"
"Let's go"
In about 10 minutes, Ash and Brock were at the bottom of the mountain.
They started making their way to the gym when Brock asked Ash a question.
"So Ash, have you found anyone yet"
"What? No!" Ash replied with a hint of annoyance in his voice.
"Sure you haven't," Brock said with a grin.
Ash had a frown on his face before he said," Hey there's the gym!"
The Cerulean City Gym was as good as ever with a note on the door that said Gym Closed for reunion. 5:00-9:00.
Ash and Brock went into the gym and into the pool room.
Daisy, Lily, and Violet were watching their pokémon swim in the pool.
Maybe I should go to the other side of the pool. Ash thought as he saw Brock go crazy, shortly followed by a Poison Jab to the gut from Croagunk.
Misty then walked into the room with her red hair in her normal tomboyish style.
"Hey, Ash. Hello, Brock," she said as she walked in. "May and Tracey are already here, so all we have left is Dawn and Gary."
"All right" Ash replied as went into the dining room with Brock.
Ash saw May and Tracey talking, so he cleared his throat to get their attention.
"Ash!" they both said at the same time.
Tracey shook Ash's hand, and May hugged him.
Brock stood there, shocked.
"Does no one care about me?"
"No," Ash, May, Misty, and Tracey all said at the same time, But then May and Tracey greeted him like they did Ash.
They heard a doorbell, and Misty went for the door. She came back with Dawn and Gary, and everyone greeted them.
"Hey," called Daisy. "We're going to the mall, so we won't be here until around dusk."
"All right," Misty called as they left.
They all sat down and then Gary started talking.
"Remember what happened before we all split up?"
"Yeah," Ash said as he remembered…
It was the semi-final match of the Sinnoh league. Whoever won this got to battle Cynthia the Champion.
"Infernape, use Mach Punch on Magmortar!" "Magmortar, block with Fire Punch!" Paul's Magmortar blocked Ash's Infernape with a Fire Punch.
"Now, Electivire, finish that stupid chimp with Thunder!"
"INFERNAPE!!" Ash cried out, as Infernape fainted.
"Infernape is unable to battle!" the referee declared.
"Magmortar, destroy his Torterra with Fire Blast." Paul commanded
"Tor!" Torterra cried as it too fainted.
"Torterra is unable to battle! Paul Slaid is the winner and will go to the finals."
"No!" Ash cried and he fell to his knees.
"Look at him. Such a wimp."
Ash stayed there, motionless.
"That was hard," Dawn said.
"Yeah," Ash replied, "But I'm over it."
"Hey!" May said, "Weren't we going to go on a hike?"
"Yes," Misty replied, "But after dinner, which should be ready."
Misty went into the kitchen and came back with a steaming meatloaf.
"I've been working on this since 2:00," Misty said. "Hold on."
She went into the kitchen now coming back with mashed potatoes and gravy.
"Mmmmmm," Tracey said as he saw the food.
"Time to eat," Misty said.
They ate until they were satisfied.
"That was a good meal, Misty," Dawn said.
"Thank you,"Misty replied.
"How about that hike?" Gary asked.
"We're going to be hiking through Mt. Moon," Misty proclaimed.
Ash sighed. He had already spent an hour and a half trying to navigate Mt. Moon.
"OK," Brock said, "Let's go."
When they approached the entrance Misty turned around and announced, "There are going to be wild pokémon in here. So every send out one pokémon, please."
Misty sent out Staryu, Gary sent out Umbreon, Tracey sent out Marill, Brock sent out Sudowoodo, May sent out Glaceon, Dawn sent out Piplup, and Ash had Pikachu on his shoulder.
They only got around the first corner when something strange happened.
There was a flask of blue light and a familiar silhouette and then everyone fell unconscious.
You like it? I always wanted to do a cliff hanger and I did one. Hope you don't mind it being on the first chapter ;). Please review. If it's a bad review then don't review. Thank you.
