A/N: I don't own Pokemon, or any of the songs in the fic! And a special thanx to Torchix for inspiring me to write this story.
I Give My Life For You
Chapter 1
Six months before the prologue
Ash Ketchum and Misty Waterflower were not just your average teenage best friends. They were strong Pokemon trainers, but more significantly, they were in love. Not with other people, but with each other.
They were the best of friends, and went out on a lot of dates. They even had some friends of their own, including Hoenn natives May Maple and Drew Rose.
But one day, things took a turn for the worse. When Misty woke up, she felt very weak. Not only she was having coughing fits, but she could barely move. She called Ash and he had her taken to the hospital.
It was just as feared: Misty had come down with leukimia. She did not have very long to live: three months. Ash was instructed to spread the word around to everyone they knew. Ash was very devastated about this, "I really hope she makes it out alright." Because, if he were to lose her, his world would come crashing down.
One day, he turned on the local rock radio station, and this song played:
I see forever when I look in your eyes
You're all I ever wanted, I always want you to be mine
Let's make a promise 'till the end of time
We'll always be together, and our love will never die
So here we are face to face and heart to heart
I want you to know we will never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true
'Cause I see my whole world
I see only you
Chorus:
When I look into you eyes
I can see how much I love you
And it makes me realize
When I look into your eyes
I see all my dreams come true
When I look into your eyes
I've looked for you all of my life
Now that I've found you, we will never say goodbye
I can't stop this feeling and there's nothing I can do
'Cause I see everything, when I look at you
Chorus
When I look into your eyes
I can see how much I love you
And it makes me realize
When I look into your eyes
We will always be together, and our love will never die
When I look into your eyes
I see all my dreams come true
When I look into your eyes
When I look into your eyes

That would be the one song to define his relationship with Misty. He hoped and prayed that Misty would be OK. Then, almost three months later, he received the best news in ages. He was called by the hospital, and the doctor said: "Your friend, Misty Waterflower, has been recovering, her leukimia is practically gone. She will be good to go in 5 days."
