Chapter 2: Enter Misty & May! Lost Baby & Worried Mother!

"Togepi! Togepi? Togepi where are you?"

"What are you doing Misty?" A brunette asked a hysterical red-head.

Misty's hair was done up into a side-ponytail, but due to the shortness of her hair, it stuck out dangerously on the top left side of her head.

"It's Togepi! She's gone! I placed her in my locker while I got my books from the top shelf like I do everyday... and she disappeared! She was just a baby! What if she got hurt? TOGEPI!!" Misty yelled.

"Calm down. I'll help you look. She couldn't of gotten far." The brunette said. Her name was May. Her hair was in pigtails, under a red bandanna.

"No May! I've been looking for half an hour! She's gone!" Misty shouted, close to tears.

"She's been missing for half an hour? You should go to the office and ask if someone has found her. Meanwhile I'll keep searching the halls. Torchic can help." May said, letting her pokemon out.

"Torr?"

"Torchic, can you help search for Togepi? She's missing."

"Torchic Tor!" It nodded it's head and zoomed down the busy hallway in search of the baby pokemon.

"Right. I'm off to the office." Misty said.

"So what's your for getting May?" Ash asked Drew.

"Uh... I don't exactly... have one." Drew answered, sweat dropping. This earned a facefall (A/N: you know when someone says something stupid and they fall? I dont know what they're called.) from Ash.

"What?! How am I supposed to help, if I don't know what to do?"

"Well you can help think of a pla-" Drew stopped and straed at Ash's feet. "Uh Ash? What did you have for breakfast?"

"Uhh.. eggs. Why?" Ash asked.

"Well I think your breakfast grew a face."

"What? How could-" Ash looked down to wear Drew was staring. "Oh hey it's a Togepi. What are you doing all alnoe in a place like this little guy?" He said, picking it up.

"Chokii..." It's lower lip began to tremble. "Priiiii!" Tears started flowing down it's face.

"Aww geeze Ash! Now look what you've done! You made the poor thing cry! Come here little guy." Drew said, taking Togepi from Ash. It stopped crying and looked up at it's new holder. "PRII! CHOKI CHOKI PRI!" It started crying even harder. "Uh I've never been much of a parent. Here Ash! You take it!" Drew said shoving Togepi back into Ash's arms.

"Whaa?! Why me!"

"Because you saw it first!"

"What! No I didn't! You did!" Ash yelled over the crying.

"Well... you touched it first!" Drew retorted.

"That was a great comeback. How did you ever think of it?" Ash asked sarcastically.

"Just take it to the office. I'm sure it's trainer is worried sick." Drew said.

"Come with me."

"No way! I hate that place. The secratary trys to hit on me." Drew shuddered.

"Fine I'll go myself." 'Baby'

Misty paced up and down the maroon-coloured carpet covering the office, waiting for some sort of news on Togepi. The lights in the room were brightly lit, giving her a ghost-like apperance, yet also making her elegant at the same time.

"Will you please stop pacing? I'm sure she's fine." May said to her friend (probably for the hundreth time). May had gotten back five minutes ago with no luck in finding Togepi.

"Easy for you to say! It's not your pokemon that's missing!" Misty cried.

"Excuse me Miss Waterflower?" The secratary said, barging into the room. "Someone's found your Togepi."

May looked up to see Misty already half-way out the door. 'Told you so.'

"Togepi? Oh Togepi! I was so worried about you! Never do that to me again!" Misty cried, grabbing Togepi from the boy who found her.

"Oh don't mention it." The boy said, sweat-dropping.

"Hmm? Ohmigosh! I'm so sorry!" Misty said. "I was just so happy to see Togepi I-"

"It's alright. I understand. I would of done the same thing if Pikachu was missing. Right Pikachu?" The boy laughed.

"Chaa!"

"So what's you name? Mine's Misty."

"I'm Ash and this is Pikachu."

"I'm May." May said, making her presence known.

"Hi May." Ash said. 'Wait.. May!' He thought, taking a second look. Brown hair, pigtails. Red bandanna. Yeah she fit Drew's description perfectly. Should he... nah. Drew might be mad for not running it by him first. Then again... it was the perfect opportunity... "Do you guys wanna have lunch with me? I'm new so I don't have many friends." He asked. He couldn't believe he did it. Would Drew be mad?

Misty looked at May. May shrugged in agreement. "Sure. Got nothing better to do."

"Cool. Come on then." He said, eager to put his plan into motion.
