Hey told you guys chapter 2 would be up soon so here it is.

Chapter 2: introductions and a problem

Ash, May, and Chase, after introducing himself as 13 and a top trainer in the Sinnoh and Unova regions, and a scientist and ranger in training, are heading to the store to find Iris and Cilan. "Oh there they are, good they're checked out" May said in a hurried tone.

"Cilan, Iris" Ash said as he ran toward them.

"Hey Ash, May, who's this?" asked Cilan.

"I'm Chase, I have a problem and Ash and May said you guys could help me" said Chase in a worried tone.

"Ya we can, so what is it?" asked Iris who was starting to get very curious.

"its better we discuss this in private, for safety reasons" said Chase looked very nervous and a little jumpy.

"Ok we can talk about it in our hotel room" said Ash.

"That'll work" said Chase and they all made their way the hotel.

When they all got into Ash and Cilans' room, chase shut the door and closed the curtains. "Ok, who has heard of the legend of Lugia?" asked Chase. Only Ash raised his hand. "Ok, for those who don't know, when Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres start to fight, Lugia will come out of the sea and, with the help of the chosen one, end their fighting" said Chase as he pulled out a note book.

"And I have recently found a ruin saying that Lugia will also be summoned by a mystical orb and can be controlled by it as well. I also found the orb and someone found me" said chase sadly.

"Who was it" asked Iris.

"A spy for an evil pirate by the name of Night Blade" said chase angrily for some reason, "He wants to control Lugia so he can rule the sea. Luckily I have evaded him long enough to realize that the orb I found was a fake, so I left it were Night Blade can find it, that way he can find it and think it's the real orb, but after this long I bet he knows it's a fake, so now he's after me and I have to find the real orb" Chase in a very worried tone.

"Do you know where it is?" asked May who now seemed very interested in the story.

"Yes I do know where it is. It's in a cave that's one day away and we have to hurry before he catches us" said Chase in a very worried tone and looked as though he bad something very bad on his mind.

"We can leave right now, all we need to do is grab our stuff" said Ash excitedly and jumped right out his seat.

"YA" agreed May as she stood up next to him and smiled.

"Sure" Cilan and Iris said simultaneously.

"Pika" said Pikachu enthusiastically.

"Axew" agreed Axew happily.

"Ok then, let's get our stuff and get going" said Chase excitedly as he stood up an picked up his backpack.

After about 10 minutes they got their items and met up in the lobby. "Oh, are you leaving?" asked the woman at the counter while she was doing something on the computer.

"No, we'll hopefully be back in a day or 2" said Cilan.

Then she looked up from the computer and said, "Well try not to miss the big Driftvale dance this Saturday. The theme is under the stars" said the woman.

"We'll try not to" Chase with a smile. Then they all walked and headed into the woods. After an hour of walking Ash looked at May, who was in front of him, and thought about slow dancing with her at that dance. The thought subconsciously made him smile and blush. Then Chase looked over to Ash and saw him smiling and blushing at May and he realized what was going on. After about another hour the sky was getting dark and they came to a clearing so Chase said "Let's camp hear for the night. So we have more energy for tomorrow".

"Ya" said Cilan agreeing, "I'll start the fire and get cooking", then he started to put out the cooking equipment.

Chase then said, "Ash and I will get some water; my map says that there is a stream nearby" and nodded at Ash.

"Ok" said ash and walked off with chase.

"Hey May, you want to help me gather berries?" asked Iris ash she looked at May.

"Ya sure Iris" said May happily.

"Hey Pikachu, why don't you stay here and help Cilan with the cooking?" asked Ash.

"Pika pi" said Pikachu. Then he climbed off ash's shoulder and ran to help Cilan.

"Come on let's go get that water" said Chase and they continued.

After about a minuet of walking through the forest Chase finally said "You like her don't you" with a smile.

"Who?" asked Ash looking confused.

"May. You like her don't you" said Chase.

"Well she is a good friend but I don't see what you mean" said Ash trying not to blow it.

"You do know what I mean. You like May more than that don't you" said Chase and smiled.

"What! No I don't!" exclaimed Ash and started to blush.

"Come you can tell me. I won't tell anyone" said Chase calmly.

"I don't" said Ash in an irritated tone.

"Come on" said chase, "you can trust me, I promise" as he put his hand on his shoulder.

"Well, she is cute and we have known each other for a while. I just don't know how she feels about me" said Ash looking embarrassed and still blushing.

"Then find out" said chase, "what you need to do is when we are at that dance and they play a slow song ask and then you two can about how you feel each other"

"Ok, I think that might work. So is there someone you like?" asked Ash as he looked to see Chase and didn't find him. Then he turned around to see that he stopped dead in his tracks. He was looking down and was about in tears. "Hey you ok?" asked ash.

"Y… ya" said Chase as he wiped a tear from his cheek, "Let's…find that stream" as he walked off and Ash followed him. He looked extremely depressed about something as he trudged on.

"What was that about?" Ash thought as he was following him.

Meanwhile Iris and May were walking through the forest gathering berries. "You know he likes you" said Iris smirking.

"Ash?" asked May looking very curious.

"Yes, you should hear how he talks about you" said Iris trying not to laugh like crazy.

"So he does like me?" asked May curiously looking very hopeful.

"Ya, why you like him back?" asked Iris extremely curious.

"Well, I…um…He…um" May said.

"Say no more. I promise I won't tell anyone" said Iris with a smile.

"Promise" asked May who was blushing like crazy.

"Promise" said Iris, "Let's go get these berries back to camp". And they both walked back with arms full of berries.

"So Ash does like me, I hope we can make it back to the dance. I'd love to slow dance with him" thought may who was feeling very happy.

Later that evening, everybody ate and they all headed into the tent to get some sleep. In the morning Ash was first to wake up and saw that may was literally right next to him and had her head on his shoulder. He smiled at the sight "May is really wonderful. I just really want to tell her how I feel" Ash thought and went back to sleep.

As May was sleeping a dream came to her. She was walking with Ash through a nice little city park and they were holding hands. Then they sat down on a bench and kissed each other on the lips. Then it flashed to another scene were Ash and may were getting married. They just said the vows and sealed it with a kiss. Finally it flashed to a scene were an older Ash and May were watching two little kids, a boy who looks like Ash and a girl who looked like May and smiled at each other. While she was dreaming she smiled and got closer to Ash.

Later that day they all got up and got packed and headed out. After half an hour, all of a sudden, they got surrounded by a lot of viscous looking Pokémon, who were ready to attack at a moment's notice, and big thugs, who were obviously controlling them. Then they realized.

This is a trap.
