Disclaimer: I have some Pokemon in my closet . NOT! I don't own Pokemon --
This is my first Pokemon fanfic so no flames please.
Dawn trudged along wearily. Does this tunnel ever end? She thought miserably. She sighed and sat down, her head in her hands. If only Team Rocket wouldn't keep trying to steal our Pokemon. Dawn's thought's wandered to earlier that day:
Flashback
Team Rocket's machine, built for digging, was trying to snag Pikachu, when the little yellow rodent jumped out of the way. Team Rocket didn't notice and grabbed Dawn instead. The machine drilled a hole in the ground and ended up in the underground tunnel system. They noticed that instead of Pikachu, they had caught Dawn, so they released her and went back up the hole to try their luck with Pikachu again.
End Flashback
Dawn sighed again. "I'll never get out of here!" She yelled. She put her face back in her hands, but looked up again when she heard footsteps. "Eep!" Dawn screeched as the footsteps' echo sent a swarm of Zubat flying overhead.
"Are you trying to make me deaf?" A cold voice came from the direction of the footsteps.
"P-Paul!?" Came Dawn's shocked reply.
"Yeah so?
"Um, well, I, uh, didn't really, you know, expect to see anyone down here." She stuttered nervously. Why am I stuttering so much?
"Whatever, troublesome girl.
"Hey! MY NAME'S DAWN!!" Dawn shrieked angrily.
"Whatever."
"No! Not whatever! Why are you always like that?"
"Like what?"
"A cold hearted, ignorant, self-centered, egotistic jerk!"
"Whatever."
"Would you stop saying that?!"
"Whatever."
"Argh! I'm out of here! Whatever!" Dawn was about to storm way when she realized what she had said. She gasped and her hand flew to her mouth. "OMG! Your 'whatever ness' is rubbing off on me!" Dawn said in mock alarm. Paul narrowed his eyes at her immature behavior. What Dawn didn't know was that deep, deep, deep, (Two minutes and thirty seconds later) deep down, her words, a cold hearted, ignorant, self-centered, egotistic jerk, had really hurt him. Of course he would never let her know that.
Dawn stared at Paul. He had this weird, distant look on his face. "Hello? Anybody home? Earth to Paul?" She waved a hand in front of his face and snapped her fingers. Paul blinked and came out of La-La Land. (A/N: It's kind of hard to imagine him in La-La Land. I mean I've never seen him there and I take daily vacations. Lol.) and gave Dawn a long, cold stare. "What?"
"Did I say anything?"
"Umm...no..."
"Then why'd you ask, 'what?'
"'Cause you were staring at me."
"So?"
"So, you're a pervert!" She stuck her tongue out, turned her back, and crossed her arms.
"What?" Paul rolled his eyes in frustration and started to walk away.
"H-hey! Where are you going?"
"I'm getting out of this stupid tunnel."
"You know the way out?" Dawn asked hopefully.
"…no…but I plan to find it."
"Could I come with you?"
"Where are those loser friends of yours?"
"Somewhere above ground I guess-hey! They aren't losers!"
"Whatever."
"So can I come with you?"
"Whatever." Dawn squealed in delight and skipped towards him singing, "We're off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz!"
