Note from the Author: hello, I would like to tell you that I'm getting busier and busier. I said before that I'm finished with the plot. I never knew writing a fan fiction would consume most of my time. Thank you all who read this. Please leave a review or a comment. I'm starting to worry if my fan fiction is boring or something. T^T. *Spoiler and Danger* There is a part where the enemy uses something as drugs, drugs as in C*caine or something. Don't attempt to follow his action. Thank you. *^^*
Chapter 3: The enemy
"Ah!"
Dawn screamed with all her might.
"Ow! Dawn! Quit screaming! It's me! Ash!"
Dawn stopped screaming, but punched Ash in the stomach.
"Ow! What was that for?"
"You sir, is the most irritable, scary, annoying creature I've ever seen!"
"What for? What did I do?"
"How could you be so quiet? How could you just suddenly appear to me?"
"Well, I guess you should clean your ears because I've been calling your na Oof!"
Dawn punched Ash in the stomach again.
"Don't say such things to me. You know that I clean myself every day."
Suddenly, they both hear a small voice calling out.
"Dawn! Dawn, where are you?"
Dawn was confused.
"Wait, isn't that your voice?" Dawn asked Ash.
"Nope, it's not my voice because I'm NOT ASH!"
The person who is disguised as Ash took off his mask and started to give a wide grin.
This time, Dawn delivered a punch in the chest, knocking the wind from this person.
"Ash! Help me! I'm here!" Dawn cried and ran as fast as she could.
Dawn ran, hoping that she was running the right direction. As for the strange person, he doubled over, coughing.
"Dawn? Dawn!" Ash heard her cry and followed his ears, hoping to meet her but was also worried because he sensed that there was something going on.
"Ash!"
Dawn finally met Ash and they both embraced each other.
"Ash, there's this strange man who was disguised as you. He even had the same voice like you!"
"What? It's not Team Rocket is it? We both know that they're masters of copying other people's voice."
"Ash! It's not them. Really, let's get out of here!" Dawn cried urgently.
Ash wanted to stay, wondering who this mysterious person is, but Dawn looked terrified. He didn't want her to be scared.
"Okay, Dawn. Let's go back to Brock."
Ash moved Dawn but stopped all of the sudden.
"Ash, what's wrong?" Dawn asked with a worried tone.
Ash said nothing, but fell to the ground, twitching.
"Well, well. What do I have here?"
The mysterious man arrived and has a blow gun in his arm.
"What did you do to Ash? Tell me!"
Dawn was hysteric because the boy she's in love is twitching.
"Who, him? I've only shot one dart at him. He's over reacting. That dart was fermented in Arbok's venom for only a day. When I tried it, I wasn't even twitching like him. Instead, it only stimulated me! Ah, that moment! That taste of venom! Running through my veins!"
The mysterious man took out another dart and stabbed it in his arm.
"Ah yes! This taste!"
Dawn was shaking while she witnessed this crazy man doing something she wouldn't even dream of.
The mysterious man turned his attention to her.
"As for you, thin, young, but brave little girl, why don't you have a taste of this dart?"
Before Dawn could move, the mysterious person took a different dart, and shot her in her left forearm. Before Dawn noticed, she was on the ground.
"What … di..d you … d..o to m….e?" Dawn was paralyzed on the ground.
The person laughed.
"That's a paralyzing dart. Don't worry, it won't stop your heart. I've tested it on myself thousands of times."
He raised Dawn by the waist and started to take her away.
"Don't you take her away!"
The person turned back.
"Ah! Finally! Some words from you. I've forgot you were here!"
Ash saw the dart on Dawn's forearm and the small trickle of blood.
"YOU! YOU DARE MAKE A SCRATCH ON HER!" Ash was shouting in rage.
"YES! I DO DARE TO MAKE A SCRATCH ON HER! TAKE A GOOD LOOK BECAUSE TODAY MIGHT BE YOUR LAST MOMENT OF SEEING HER!" the person imitated Ash because he thought it would be funny.
Ash couldn't move his mouth because of the poison.
"You know, you are so puny. Have you ever lost something in your life that you matter most? Have you? HAVE YOU! This world is filled with greed and people's attempts of filling their own stomach. As for you, well, you just need to suffer and acknowledge how cruel this world is."
"Here."
The person placed an antidote a few millimeters from Ash's reach.
"Good luck, and oh, if I were you, since your state is twitching and paralyzing, I'd say you should get that antidote because the increase of heart rate will spread the poison fast. Bye!"
He flashed Ash a grin and took off with Dawn on his shoulder.
