Poketech High 6
WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?
The money struggles of the gang.
"Ash," addressed Daisy solemnly "We have some terrible news. We can't afford to keep Misty's life support on, the Gym isn't raking in enough cash."
"What?" Ash cried, tears streaming into his eyes "You gotta do something to save her!"
"Maybe you could organize a fundraiser or something." Lily suggested.
"I guess," said Ash thoughtfully.
"Get together with your friends," suggested Rose "You'll work out something"
"Thanks," said Ash hollowly as he walked to the door of the Gym. Things weren't going his way, at all. If only he was rich...
"Brock, I don't have time for a fight." Kishi said, standing her ground.
"Yeah, well I'm sure they were your intentions on the night of the party."
"I didn't even see you there!"
"Bullshit! Why the hell did you scream in my face than? You in your tarty blue dress!"
"Excuse me, I wasn't wearing a dress, Gabby...Gabby was. What the fuck did you do to Gabby?"
Brock hung his head.
"Get lost, Brock" Kishi said calmly "Get your facts right next time."
Brock turned on his heel and slowly made his way across the road.
Fuming Kishi opened the door to the house. Instantly, the phone rang.
"I'll get it! It's for me!" Kishi yelled, picking it up. She already knew it was Ash, and her heart was leaping with excitement.
"Hi Kishi," he said drowsily.
"Hi," she answered brightly.
"Look I need to talk to someone, you're the only one around"
"Oh," Kishi said, making it difficult for Ash to understand how she felt.
"Daisy and the others, they can't afford to keep Misty going...and I rang Jenny and I ended up with the lady who says my call can't be connected, please check the number..."
"What? Misty? No way?"
"Uh-huh" sobbed Ash "If only I was rich"
"James is, I could try and get some off him on our date..." She trailed off, realising that she hadn't meant to tell Ash about her date with James.
"Good for you" snuffled Ash bitterly.
"I could always...enter the lottery! That's it!" Kishi exclaimed.
"Are you kidding you'll never win, it's a waste of money."
"Not necessarily" Kishi answered "Gotta go, bye!"
Kishi felt incredibly bad as she fingered the lottery ticket in her purse. She was all dressed up for her date and waiting for outside her house for James to show up. The air was humid and the sky was deep purple. Her skirt was riding up her leg and her hair was falling out.
"Where are you James?" Kishi whispered in annoyance.
As if by magic his red convertible pulled up infront of her house.
"Hi," he said opening her door from the inside.
"Hi," she answered back uncertainly, holding the hem of her red miniskirt so it wouldn't ride all the way up to her waist as she sat down.
"You look nice," James said.
"Thanks." Kishi said simply.
**What on earth do I say next?** Kishi wondered **I wish I knew the proper protocol for dates**
James didn't however notice her discomfort and he drove off towards the restaurant.
"This is a nice car," complimented Kishi appreciatively.
"Thanks. I got it for my birthday." James said, closing the conversation off again. Kishi sighed and leant her arm against the window.
After what seemed like an age they arrived at Food de Love and looking like a superstar couple they walked inside.
Jessi turned a full circle in the mirror and then wrinkling her nose in distaste she threw the red dress that she was holding up onto her bed. She'd already worn it so many times before that everyone recognized it.
She opened her wardrobe again and sighed. There was a pair of miniature ballet slippers, an orange scarf and a pile of dust bunnies.
She had systematically checked through every item in her closet and was empty handed. She badly needed some new clothes, but there was no way on Earth she could afford any.
**James already thinks I'm a cheap slut anyway** she told herself **Why should I bother to get nice things if he won't see them?**
Kishi excused herself from the table and walked over to the TV screen, where Poke Lotto was showing. Kishi hid her eyes with her hand as they glowed blue, changing the numbers around, controlling the mechanical arm that plucked them from the rotating sphere.
"THAT'S MY NUMBER!" She exclaimed loudly and happily. She ran up to James and kissed him, thanked him for the lovely evening and than she ran out of the room and teleported a nearby payphone.
Misty lay in the dark of the night, her lifeless body shrouded in a pale white sheet.
Daisy placed a tender hand on Misty's arm, crying, she told Misty that she couldn't afford to keep her alive.
Misty was so motionless that Daisy suspected she was already gone.
"Oh Misty..." Daisy sobbed "Please pull through..."
Jenny packed her things into her bag again and gave her father an angry look. He returned it as he ushered her out the door. Winston, the security guard, rushed her into the black van infront of the hotel, almost invisible in the night sky.
Joy held her gut in pain as she doubled over, sliding her English textbook of her desk. She caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror, her hair disheveled and messy, her face tired and worn.
She had had her taste of the spice of life, and never wanted to sample it again. Things had been so out of control that night...out of her grasp.
The pain subsided and was replaced by a newer one, guilt.
Lance hung in the air, his feet not touching the ground. He looked around the park for people around and once he was satisfied he was alone he rested on the park bench, dozing in silence and fear.
Sabrina glanced up from the candle infront of her.
"Kishi!" she gasped in disbelief. How could Kishi have done such a thing?
Gary looked over the school photos again, reading the fine print with stricken eyes.
'Absent- Cassidy Birches'
He glared at the paper in rage, blaming it for not showing the beautiful girl he felt so strongly towards.
He knew very little about Cassidy, except that she spent a lot of time at a bike shop. He had heard from Gabby, who was across the road at the time, that she was talking to a really freaky guy in a black coat. She'd reckoned it was drug swapping, but Gary wasn't sure. Was Cassidy a real live drug dealer? His heart leapt. It was so exciting! If he had some cash he could buy some grass, and BOOM perfect opportunity to meet her! But only if he had the money.
Cassidy tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Something was plaguing her, something out of reach...
**It's just that freak** Cassidy told herself, the image of Lance's eyes still fresh in her mind **Anyone would be disturbed after seeing that nightmare**
But it wasn't that and she knew it. That guy was different, he was strange, and Cassidy had a terrible feeling that he would be in her life again, where he was not wanted.
TO BE CONTINUED...
