A/N So I decided to go through the whole of my story so far and add in, edit and so on to try and make it a bit better. Let me know what you think and thanks for the reviews so far. Enjoy!
Chapter 1
"Pikachu!"
A small, yellow rat-like pokémon with a lightning shaped tail could be seen racing across the wide spanse of grass towards a wooded area. Behind the little creature a large building with a red roof and a large pokeball above the entrance could be seen bustling with pokémon of all types getting healed and their trainers looking worried or socialising with one another.
Several seconds later, a boy with a red pokémon cap on top of his spiky black hair, around the age of 16 followed the small pokémon with a frantic look upon his face.
"Pikachu come back!" he yelled out of concern for his best pokémon friend.
The little pikachu ignored his master and continued on his way through the trees with a look of longing in his black, bright eyes.
Ash followed the slight trail made by the nimble pikachu and came to a small clearing surrounded by large oaks, "Pikachu?" he called out hesitantly.
Seconds seemed to drag into minutes as the young boy peered into the trees, looking for any sign of movement from the pokémon.
Without warning, two individuals crashed out of the trees behind the boy and he span around with his hands balled up in fists.
Seeing the two people, the boy immediately relaxed and waved slightly at the pair.
The taller one was tanned and had short brown hair and had a rucksack slung over his back; stuffed full with all sorts of pokémon goods, medicines, food ingredients and the like. He looked older than the other two teenagers, about 17 or 18.
The other person was much different, she was girl about the same age as the black haired boy with very pale skin and slightly smaller then him. She was extremely pretty and slender wearing a black tight top ending in jagged spikes and a short pink skirt and her unusual dark blue hair flowed in waves down her shoulders out of her white beanie hat.
"Hey Ash, what's with Pikachu," the tanned boy called out having seen the yellow pokémon run away from his friend.
Ash looked up at the taller boy with worried eyes, "I didn't see you there, I dunno, he just ran off. Pretty weird huh?"
The girl walked up to Ash and put her hand on his shoulder to reassure him, "Don't worry Ash, he'll be alright."
Though the girl meant well, Ash seemed rather uncomfortable with her touching him.
He blushed at the contact and backed away inconspicuously from the extremely pretty girl, "T-thanks Dawn."
Dawn frowned at his unusual behaviour and leaned in close, peering at him suspiciously, "Ash, why are you red."
The two were usually so close and could talk to each other about anything and could joke about without worrying about hurting the other and yet, lately, Ash had been acting strange; barely talking to her and seemed to be strongly avoiding her much to her distress.
"W-what? No! No reason at all. Gotta find Pikachu. Bye!"
And with that the young boy ran off hurriedly leaving a very confused and rather hurt Dawn in his wake.
"Hey Brock, what just happened?" Dawn turned to the older boy for advice seeing as he had more experience with these kind of things.
Brock hesitated, "Well he's rather acting like me when I see a particularly beautiful woman before me. If I didn't know Ash any better, I'd rather say he fancied you."
He gave a nervous sort of laugh and avoiding eye contact thinking that maybe the younger boy may actually fancy her which would explain his odd behaviour.
Dawn stared at Brock, wide-eyed, "W-wha-? D-don't be so ridiculous," she flushed and turned away to hide her embarrassment whist wondering if Brock spoke the truth.
