Dancing Queen

Chapter Three: Returning

Misty ran into the pokemon center knocking over many trainers as she did. There were no phones in the hotel that were free. She couldn't waste any money if she was gonna take the train to wherever Ash was.

Much to Misty's annoyance all the booths were occupied. She ran over to a younger trainer and took the phone from him.

"HEY!" The young blonde boy cried. "I'm talking to my mom!"

"He'll call you back," Misty said into the phone to the bewildered mother.

She hung up and quickly dialed Brock's cell phone number. The boy stalked away looking quite grumpy. He kept grumbling things like, "Scrawny brat. Witch!"

Misty ignored him. This was urgent. Misty could always get the kid back later. She listened to the steady ringing…

"Hey…" Brock voice sounded from the other line.

"Brock! It's Misty!" Misty cried desperately into the phone.

The screen in front of her fizzed into focus showing Brock's confused face. Behind him she could back out some beautiful tall oaks. He was in the mountains…

"What is it Misty?" Brock asked.

"How's Ash?" Misty asked trying to seem casual.

"Fine. Misty, what is this about?" Brock snapped trying to get her to the point.

"I want to came back," Misty whispered, "It's killer without you. I just want to become part of the gang again."

Brock's face went quite severe, "Misty. You walked out on us. We can't just as easily let you back in… Well I could. Pikachu might. But Misty… Ash is-"

Misty was afraid of this. She heard some sniffles from inside her pack. She had place Togepi in there before she ran here. Misty was afraid it might wake up any minute.

"Well, could we just accidentally meet up…"

"Maybe…" Brock pondered. "We will be in Lien City in two days. If you took the train…"

"Got it! Thanks!" Misty smiled hanging up. Her day was looking up.

Then the phone rang again.

Bring! Bring! Bring! Phone Call! Phone Call!

She hated that annoying voice. She picked it up. There was no vision on the screen. Just blackness…

"Hello sweetie pie. I'm back. Ashy boy won't ever bother you again. Love ya."

Misty was in shock. She listened to the steadily hum of the dial tone. She knew that voice

Ketak was out.
