May was tired from all her contests in Johto. She missed Ash and all their adventures together. She was deep in her thoughts, and before she knew it, she bumped into a person. That snapped her out of her reverie.

"I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" she asked.

"Huh? May, watch where you're going next time!" snapped Drew.

Drew was a coordinator May had met back in Hoenn. Now they travel together, quite unusual since they are both rivals with each other.

"I wish Ash was here! Too bad he had to go to Sinnoh!" May quickly murmured, turning away from Drew.

"What did you say? I couldn't hear you!" said Drew.

"I… uh…" stumbled May." I – I was training my Pokémon for the next contest!" shouted May.

"Oh? Then where is the next contest?" Drew asked with a sneer.

"I – I think it's at … Eruteak City?" May guessed with a blush.

"That's correct May. And how long is it going to take us to reach Ecruteak Cit, May?" Drew asks her.

"Um… Two hours?" May asked.

"Quite right! I am truly surprised by your knowledge! So let's go already!" commanded Drew.

Finally they made their way into Ecruteak City. It was getting dark, so they headed towards the nearest Pokémon Center.

"Good evening, Nurse Joy!" greeted May.

"Hello, and welcome to the Pokémon Center! How may I help you today?" asked Nurse Joy with a cheerful smile.

"Yes, we would like to have one room please. In the meantime could you heal our Pokémon for us?"Asked Drew.

"Sure! Your room is number 104, and please give your pokeballs to Chansey."Said Nurse Joy.

They gave their pokeballs to Chansey, and went to their room. It had two beds and a curtain to separate them. After putting their stuff away, they went to the cafeteria. But on their way there, they passed a very familiar face.

"Brianna?" questioned Drew. (Brianna was motivated by Drew's coordinating skills, and fell in love with him. That's how Brianna became a coordinator, and challenged May to a contest. Of course May won, so Brianna couldn't proclaim her love to him.)

"Oh! Mr. Drew?" gasped Brianna.

"Hi Brianna!" greeted May.

Brianna spun around, as if challenging someone to fight. May saw flames dancing in her eyes. Then she hissed.

"Oh, May! Why are you following Mr. Drew? Are you stalking him?" She gazed sweetly toward Drew, and glared back at May. "Don't tell me, you're traveling with him?"Her voice burned with jealously. Then she spun on her heels, and walked away.

"May, you should stay away from Brianna until the day of the contest." Warned Drew.

"I know" said May.
