Okay, it feels like I haven't written in forever! Anyway, I'm already moving on to the second chapter, so here we go.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokémon special, if I did, the she shippings would be used way more.
Yellow woke in a daze. She found herself on the floor of the living room in a pool of dried tears. The tears reminded her of her sadness the night before. Of Red's announcement. Of her own fear to tell the truth. And of the loss.
Today was the day he was leaving, and everybody was going to be there with him. Yellow looked over to the Pikachu clock and saw the time, 10:23am. She had to be in pallet town by 11:00. Wiping the dried tears from here face, she grabbed her hat, which had been dropped on the floor a few feet away. She grabbed her pokeballs from their scattered positions across the room, and ran out the front door.
"Hey, you were almost late. We're about to leave", Blue was the first to notice Yellow running toward the group consisting of the first three dex holders. "Sorry, I slept in", she apologized as she neared the group. Red stepped forward from behind Blue, "Hi Yel-" he was cut off by Yellow as she tried to stop, but was going too fast and ran directly into him. The two stumbled to their feet. Once Red was standing again he put his hand out to Yellow, offering to help her. She looked up and saw him from where she was still fallen and a blush started to creep on her face. She ignored his hand and got up, doing her best to hide the redness of her checks. "You okay?" he asked her. She pulled her hat down to cover her face as she weakly replied, "Yes".
The next few minutes were spent making sure everything was ready for Red's trip. He insisted he's remembered to bring everything, but sure enough, after a few second of check, Green found that Red had forgotten his boat ticket. Once everything was finally in order, Green let charizard out of its pokeball, they all took off.
The trip to Vermillion wasn't too long, but it was long enough for Yellow to have to spend most of it hiding next to Blue after constant blushing around Red. The talk among the group was nonstop. No one wanted to have any time to think, or realize that this was their last day all together. Once Red left the entire group would fall apart. Sure, they would all still be friends, but Blue and Green would always be together. And even the dex holders from other regions wouldn't have as much reason to visit. Yellow tried her best to keep her mind off all that, but the only thing she could distract herself from it was the thought of never seeing Red again. She loved him, and this would be their last day together, and she was too nervous to even sit near him, let alone tell him the truth. He was going to leave, and she was too scared to stop him.
"We're here", Blue's unusually calm voice broke Yellow away from her terrors. Looking around her, Yellow recognized to large city of Vermillion, rebuilt after her encounter with Lance (I'm not sure if she's seen it since then, I'm working with the Viz Kidz translations). They all hopped off, and Green returned his fire dragon pokemon. Less than a hundred meters from the dock, Red's boat was already boarding its last passengers.
They all stared at the massive ship, silence falling as they realized what was next. The usually quiet Green was the first to speak, "Well, I guess this is goodbye"… Red turned, his usually goofy smile replace by a simpler, more sincere one, "I've got one more thing for you guys", he reached for the pokeballs on his belt and took three of them off, "since I'm going to a new region, I thought I'd catch new pokemon to use there. I've already left most of mine with professor oak, and Gara to Misty, and fearow to Bill, but I want to give you guys Poli, Saur, and Pika". The faces of his friends lit up, they would at least have something with them for two years while Red was gone.
Red walked up to Green first and put the pokeball containing Saur in his hand, "when I get back, first thing I do is challenging your gym". The two best friends smiled at each other as the shock hands goodbye. Next, Red turned to Blue and handed her Poli's pokeball, "don't annoy Green too much", he said, and after some thinking added, "and don't like, dress Poli up or anything". Blue just gave a short laugh as tears began to form in her eyes. Finally he turned to Yellow, "I'm really going to miss you, I don't know how I'll survive out there alone". He held out his last pokeball to her, inside of which Pika sat, looking at Yellow, and feeling her sorrow, they would both miss Red. She weakly lifted her arms to grip the little yellow mouse's pokeball. She grasped in and attached it to her belt with her other pokemon. She struggled to get out her goodbye, but before she could, Red leaned in and kissed her cheek, "Goodbye Yellow de Viridian Grove". And with those last words, leaving Yellow on the verge of breaking down into a puddle of tears and sorrow, he turned and headed to the boat. Not a sound was made as Green, Blue, and Yellow all watched their best friend, or in some cases secret crush, walked away, leaving them for two years. He turned and waved one last time, then walked onto the boat, and left.
As the group watched the boat leave a dark atmosphere dropped around them. Yellow, just barely holding back her emotions finally sheds a tear. Then another. And another. Slowly, a pool of sadness forms at her feet, growing larger the further the boat goes, until it finally disappears into the setting sun. As soon as it was out of sight, Yellow dropped the sad face, forgot about it to be replaced with an utterly miserable one. She broke, weeping and ran. Ran away from the city, leaving through the north entrance, not that she cared where she was going. Blue and Green were calling her back, but their voices were little more importance to her then the leaves she stepped on as she ran. And she didn't stop.
