Part 1

I never did forget that terrible night. It will haunt my mind forever. The night Misty died.
We had gone on a night on the town. It started out fine. Till the raticate came. We had been warned that some pokemon around here carried rabies. We had also been warned not to stay out late at night because of them. But we didnt listen."Ash," Misty said late one night at then Moon Cafe," It`s getting late. Shouldn`t we be heading back. You know about the rabid pokemon." I didn`t think anything would happen. I was so very wrong. "Nah,"I replied." Just a little while longer. Here, have some more ravioli." Misty seemed a little worried but took some more of the pasta. "I guess but we really should be going in soon." I smiled. "Don`t worry," I told her,"We`ll go soon."
I should have said yes in the first place.After we had finished our meal, we decided that it was plenty late and we ought to go home. As we stepped out of the cafe, we saw that the streets were swarming with rattata. "Ooh.." Misty moaned. "Dont worry," I said," Rattata aren`t known to carry rabies." "Good," Misty said. Then she slowly wrapped her arms around me and gave me the kiss I secrectly had yearned for over the years. That one moment was the moment I shall cherish forever. It ended too soon.
"Ash," Misty wispered as we stepped over rattata after rattata,"Are you sure that rattata don`t often carry rabies?" "Yes,"I replied,"but, you should watch out for pokemon like zubat and raticate." Misty smiled. "And I guess there aren`t any of those around here." "Nope," I said," Not that I see." Misty looked at me with a strange look in her eyes. "I will never forget this night." I smiled. "I won`t either." Then we heard a noise that was like a thunderclap to us. "Raaaaaaaaaticaaaaate!!!!!!!!!"
We had acidentally disturbed a raticate while we were lost in our own little world. "Ash!" Misty screamed,"Raticate DO carry rabies often what should we do!?" "Run!!", I yelled.
We both turned and ran, but the raticate was still upset. It seems we had ran forever till we had reached the town. Moon Cafe had picked a stupid place to put itself."Ash,"Misty gasped," I can`t run much longer!" "Dont worry!", I yelled,"We`re almost there!" We ran toward the doors of the Pokecenter. The ratcate was still hot on our trail. Now gaining, then losing. We still were ten feet away. We were close enough to grab the handles of the doors. It was then that the raticate sank its teeth into my love, Misty`s sweet arm.
"No!", I gasped. The raticate seemed satisfied with that and turned and walked away. Misty seemed to be unconsous. I picked her up and carried her through the door. "Nurse Joy!", I yelled, "She was bitten by a rabid raticate! Please help!" Oh, dear," sad Nurse Joy," I`ll see what I can do!" As I watched Misty being carried away by two chanseys, I sat down in one of the chairs in the waiting room and fell asleep.
When I awoke early that morning I quickly ran to the desk where Nurse Joy was sleeping.
"Is she....?" I couldn`t finish the sentance. Nurse Joy looked up at her with sad eyes. "I`m afraid we couldn`t save her...", She said sadly," when a person gets rabies, theres no saving them...". We both said nothing for a moment.After a while, I asked to see Misty`s body. As Nurse Joy led me to a back room, I looked and saw Misty`s body lying on a steel table. I wondered if Misty knew I was looking at her now.
A tear rolled down my cheek and landed on Misty. I slowly walked out of the room. Nurse Joy followed me. "Can I get you anything else?" "No, thats all." Then I turned and walked out of the door.Now I had reached the crossroads. I couldn`t help thinking someone was watching me. I now am pretty sure Misty`s spirit was looking down on me, looking out for me. I will always remember Misty. I never forgot that night. I never forgot that kiss. I`m sure Misty never forgot either.
I was in the middle of the crossroads. After trying to decide wich path to take, I decided to take a rest on a hill next to the crossroads. I lay down and closed my eyes. Then I opened them and looked at the clouds. I thought I could see Mistys face in the clouds. I got up and chose the right path. As I walked down the crossroads, I thought about Misty.
And I cried. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
