The Darkest Hour -Chapter 3.
Hey guys! Thanks for the reviews! Haha, Celebi aren't common in Unova, but we'll explain why she is as well as the other grass type!
Aww, bought Jirachi Wish Maker movie today. So cute! The bit with Ash, "A good friend left me, and... I miss her everyday. " Haha! America DO believe in POKe'SHIPPING!
The POKe'MON from last chapter was...
Cleffa!
Sorry, It could have been Clefairy as well I guess, but the line about the riding on stars would've given you the right answer.
Anyways, what will happen to Pikachu and Celebi?
And they are FINALLY actually, not metaphorically, out of that bloody woods! The one they spent the whole of the first story in! Yay! Haha, be sure to take part in my poll for my new story, Which One Do I Take? Need reviews for it to carry on!
Also, before we start, where the heck have all my lovely reviewers from TMFF gone? I got the lowest number of reviews I have ever got for this story for Chapter 2. Only 3! :( thank you to the three, Ivybean, FollowingTheWind and Darkrai nut. Just a note for darkrai nut, are you the same person as Airoh? Because your answers sound the same, lovin' the rhyme!
Anyways, enough of my crap, here's next chappy!
P.s- the PKMN company just don't know when enough is enough, do they? Meowth has been fired from Team Rocket in B/W ep, not in eng yet and has joined Ash and co.
Disclaimer: Oh why do I bother? Yeah and of course a teenage girl is obviously going to own something that came out a year before they were born in the English Dub!
...
The gang finally crossed the giant bridge, and Ash especially began scowering the grand city infront of them for a POKe'MON Centre.
Misty gasped as she tried to take in all the sounds, mainly of ferrys and crowds, the sights, thousands of skyscrapers defied gravity as they stood, upright like a soldier being inspected. The sky above the city wasn't as blue as over the forest, but it wasn't grey and dirty looking either.
"C'mon! I see it!" Cilan yelled, pointing a finger at a skyscraper not so far away from them. Built into the bottom, was a POKe'MON Centre.
They all barged through the glass doors, and Ash placed Pikachu and Misty put Celebi on the table in front of the Nurse Joy.
...
The star. The star is calling me.
But, why is it calling me?
I have only been asleep for five years...
Someone is coming...
"Sir! I think we've found what we were looking for." A grunt yelled, scrabbling at the ground until his hand's met a sharp yet smooth surface.
He pulled it out, and in his hands he held a violet ore. It was as large as a beach ball, and it shone in the light which it hardly ever saw.
"Give that here." The admin grumbled, snatching it from the grunt's arms as he held it up to the light.
...
Ash sighed and waited for Nurse Joy to finish up with Pikachu.
"He'll be ok Ash..." Misty reassured her boyfriend, caressing his tense shoulder's with her hands.
Ash stayed as rigid as a rock, and ignored Misty's comforting words, and continued to stare at his feet.
The redhead sighed and flopped beside him, and placed her head in her hands.
Brock slumped beside them, grumbling.
Paul and Dawn were funnily enough silent as they leant against a pillar. Dawn's indigo eyes fixed on Paul's stony face, watching him glare at at her as he caught her gaze. Dawn scowled back, turned away from him and crossed her arms. She didn't however notice as Paul glanced at her.
Cilan began pacing around the sofa that Ash, Brock and Misty sat on, his lime green eye's shifting over the tiled floor.
"Geez would you quit it?" Iris yelled, her brown eye's grazing over Cilan as he turned with a surprised expression to look at her.
Cilan grumbled and plonked himself next to Iris on a couch, and nudged her hand with his wrist. Iris's eyes locked with Cilan's. He flashed her a tiny smile, one she didn't return.
"I'm getting a takeaway, what does everybody want?" Brock asked, standing up and waitinng for responses.
"I'll have a burger." Iris announced, watching Brock nod.
"Me too Brock." Cilan whispered, watching Iris give him a look.
"What about you two? Ash? Misty?" Dawn asked and pulled out a piece of paper to write requests on.
Misty placed a hand over Ash's and turned to Dawn. "I'll have a small hot dog thanks. Ash?" Misty turned to Ash.
The raven haired boy glanced up at Misty and looked at all of his friends.
"I'm fine thanks." Ash mumbled, glancing at his lap and playing a game on his Xtranseiver.
Misty sighed and snatched the handheld device from Ash's hands.
"Hey!" Ash yelled, turning but being silenced as Misty kissed him on the lips. Cilan and Iris looked away immediately and Dawn, Brock and Paul, who grumbled turned away too.
Ash immediately pushed Misty off of him, and placed his head in his hand's.
Misty was surprised and glanced at Ash as he ignored her, her eye's full of panic.
"A-Ash?" she squeaked, placing a hand on his arm.
Ash sighed and glanced at her, his russet eyes dancing across her face.
"Misty, I'm just not in the mood right now. I'm worried about Pikachu." Ash sighed, his voice wavering as he muttered the last few words.
Misty was quiet for a few moments, before to Ash's surprise, she leapt at him, and hugged him around the waist.
Ash wrapped his arms around Misty, tears leaking down his face.
"Just get Ash a hot dog." Misty whispered to Brock.
"I'll come with you Brock." Dawn sighed, getting to her feet and walking out the door with the tanned teen.
Paul began walking after them, "Think I'll go too." he mumbled, stuffing his hands in his pockets.
Iris began walking over to Nurse Joy, "I'll get us some rooms!" She announced, turning to the pink-haired woman.
Cilan got up awkwardly "I-I'll go help..." and walked over to Iris, leaving Ash and Misty alone.
Several Hours Later...
Cilan and Iris were in their room unpacking, Dawn and Paul were fast asleep in the lobby, and Brock was sleeping in a bunk bed, snoring with Misty's Azurill curled up beside him.
Misty was leaning against Ash asleep, and she mumbled his name in her sleep.
Ash was fully awake. His eyes never darting from the needle sign above the intensive care room.
Eventually, he grew bored and grabbed a TV remote, and switched on the television.
He flickered through the channels , wait, go back a few...
Ash's eyes widened as the news blared on the screen.
It was like a flashback of a month ago.
Ash could still remember attending Misty's sister, Lily's funeral.
As he gazed at the screen, a breath snagged in his throat.
Oh shit.
" Oh No, no no, please no Arceus." Ash whispered, tears welling in his eye's.
He glanced at Misty as she slept, at how peaceful she looked. Her lily-white skin glowed in the warm glow of the building and her long eyelashes fluttered as she dreamt.
He panicked as Misty began to stir, and switched the news off.
"Ash? You ok?" Misty groaned, staring curiously with big blue eyes at her boyfriend.
He was about to open his mouth, but decided it best not to say anything about it yet.
"Yeah, it's just..."
"Oh the doors opened!" Misty leapt up, and dragged Ash to his feet towards the now open surgery door where Pikachu and Celebi had been taken not hours before.
Ash's eyes lit up as he glanced through the glass at the sleeping rodent. Pikachu breathed up and down calmly.
Nurse Joy and her Audino were fiddling with a machine.
Misty's eyes lit up as she spotted the tiny Celebi sleeping beside Pikachu.
"They need to rest. As do you two! It's two in the morning!" Joy scolded, poiting to their rooms.
Ash and Misty tore their eyes away from Pikachu and Celebi and walked through the lobby.
Ash watched steadily as Misty shook Dawn and Paul awake.
The two teenagers grumbled and ran to the room.
Misty grinned at Ash, "Told ya they'd be okay silly!" she punched Ash's shoulder, making him wince.
Ash was sad to see her looking so happy as he knew something that would devastate her.
As the lot of them turned off the light and said their good nights, Ash lay awake, half listening to Brock's snoring.
First Lily, now another one... Poor Misty.
It's going to be awful tomorrow.
...
To be Continued...
Whoo! Sad chapter:( guess whose gone now? And who was that POKe'MON?
Here's a POKe'POEM!
...
Embers flying through the skies,
As I grow older my tail multiplies,
There's a flame inside of me,
That will never go out,
In the wild to escape danger I frequently spout,
Boiling hot flickering flames that sear to the touch,
A fire stone is all a little much,
One tap and Boom! I'm stronger!
It is said if you grab one of my evolved form's tails you will be cursed for a thousand years or longer,
But the Question Still Remains,
What POKe'MON am I?
...
