Prehistoric Poké-Park
Fanfic by ERiN OPPEL
Note: I actually wrote this Fanfic a few years ago, before I found out about . I bet you didn't know I was a Pokémon fan as well, huh! Hm, maybe I shoulda put that in my profile… Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know that this fic is somewhat of a parody of the Jurassic Park trilogy (hence the title). It takes place during the season where Ash is in the Battle Frontier, getting the symbols. I suggest you watch the episode "Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon" from season one before you read this fic, or else you probably won't get it. Well, that's all I have to say, except enjoy reading!
PS: I should probably mention there's a slight hint of AshxMay later in the story…
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon in any way, but I'd be living the dream if I did! :D
PART 1: THE POKÉ-PARK ISLANDChapter 1: The InvitationAsh and his friends have been traveling to the next arena in the Battle Frontier so Ash could get his next symbol.
"How much farther, Max?" Ash asked, tiredly.
Max replied, dully, "Much farther."
May cried, "Oh, we're gonna die out here in this forest!"
"Calm down, guys," said Brock. "There should be a Pokémon centre in the next town."
Sure enough, they had made it out of the forest and into the town. They hurried to the Pokémon centre and Brock was very excited.
Brock ran up to Nurse Joy and grabbed her hand. "HELLO NURSE JOY!!"
Nurse Joy looked confused and she asked, "And you are?"
Brock replied, "I am your love, Brock! Now tell me, do your pretty feet hurt?"
Nurse Joy asked, "Uh, why?"
Brock answered, "Because you've been running around in my heart all day!"
Max grabbed Brock's ear and dragged him away from Joy. "Now I think she'll be running away from you."
Then Nurse Joy spoke up, "Excuse me, are you Ash Ketchum?"
Ash turned to her. "Yeah, that's me."
"There's a phone call for you." Joy explained.
"Hmm. I wonder who could be calling me." Ash walked over to the Poké-phone and picked up the phone. "Hello?"
An old-looking man with a thick moustache and glasses appeared on the screen. "Are you Ash Ketchum?"
"Yeah, I am."
"I'm the professor from the Great Fossil Rush at Grandpa Canyon, remember?"
Ash was shocked. "Oh yeah! I remember that day so frightfully well!"
The professor laughed. "Yes, well, since that day, I wondered if those prehistoric Pokémon were real even though everyone else thought it was a dream caused by Jigglypuff. Anyway, I made a theme park about prehistoric Pokémon to show everyone what they are and how they live. But before I open it to the public, I wanted to invite you and your friends to come visit and check it out for yourselves! Think of it as a VIP tour."
Ash wondered what it would be like. He thought that maybe the professor had built some models of the ancient Pokémon, but it didn't sound like anything special. Still, the professor did seem very excited about it… Ash replied, "I don't know, I'll have to ask my friends if it's ok with them." He went over to his friends and told them what the professor said.
Max was excited. "Wow! A theme park about prehistoric Pokémon? That sounds cool! Can we go?"
Brock answered, "Well, it doesn't sound special, and besides, Ash wanted to go to the next arena." He looked at Ash.
Ash said, "Well, I guess it's worth a shot. I mean, it is free. Anyway, my next symbol can wait."
Max jumped for joy. "YES! We're going to the theme park!"
"Hold it!"
Everyone looked at May, who glared back at them. "No one asked MY opinion!"
Ash asked, slowly, "So, uh, this ok with you?"
May smiled. "Yep! Let's go!" and Max continued to jump for joy.
Ash went over to the phone. "Professor? It's a go!"
"Excellent! I'll send a helicopter to the Pokémon centre so that you and the others can join me at my park. See you soon!"
"See you soon!" Ash and his friends said, then hung up and the screen went black.
Max asked, "Who was that professor anyway?"
Brock explained everything that happened at the Great Fossil Rush incident.
May said, "Wow, it sounded pretty dangerous."
Ash laughed proudly, "Dangerous? Ha! I laugh at danger!"
Brock chuckled. "You sure weren't laughing when that Aerodactyl was about to eat you for dinner."
"Hey!" Ash glared at Brock and the others started to laugh.
