At the shore, Pikachu thought under the spell of Attract, a move used to make one fall in love. Pikachu thought, Wow. I'll ask her to be my mate.
He followed Buneary to the shore, where she asked, "Pikachu, do you have anything to ask me?" Pikachu nodded.
"Buneary, on this fine night, beside the Lake of Love, I stand before a young, beautiful buneary of greatness. I love her," he said, reciting the Mating Poem, and Buneary beamed. He continued.
Soret went treetop to treetop looking for Buneary and Pikachu. She heard a move being used, and their gone. "There!" she said to herself. She saw Pikachu, and Buneary. "Wait...is he...!" Soret remebered the unmistakable words of the Mating Peom. She got closer, and noticed when Pikachu spoke, his words had no feeling.
Buneary smiled. All was going perfect. Soon he and herself would be mates! She enjoyed the feeling, but she felt guilty because the love was fake. After this, all over. Then, though, if he said that he did not say it, Buneary would have an egg to show him. An egg! Oh, the feeling of being a mother made her so happy. But, what would it be? If it was a buneary, there was no proof. But a pichu? Yes! Buneary gazed at Pikachu warmly.
Soret knew what to do. She slowly went down the tree she was in, and crept in the shadows. Pikachu was saying the last verse. "Now, I ask you, Buneary...will you-"
He never finished. Soret bolted out the bushes, and used IronTail on Pikachu. He fell backwords and snapped out of his spell. "Huh? Where am I?" he looked around, and then remebered the landscape. "The Love Lake? Isn't that where..." He looked at Buneary. "Oh no. Oh, no no, no. You couldn't of had! Buneary!" Pikachu was blowing steam now. He screeched at Buneary, and she shrunk back in fear. "Pikachu, you're wrong, I..." Her eyes met his, then quickly dropped to the ground.
Soret stepped in front of Pikachu. "She loves you, and you should love her. You'll...have a happy life together, but not if you keep this up."
Pikachu looked back at Buneary. She WAS beautiful, and she did love him. He had ignored her so many times, but...Should he love her? He closed his eyes and thought,
"When I open my eyes, the one I see is my love." He slowly opened his eyes. No Buneary. Just Soret. His ears went back and his eyes sparkled. He took a step toward Soret.
Buneary saw it all. She was so mad, she lost ALL her mind. "ICEBEAM!" She screamed. She made ice spikes with sharp tips surround Pikachu. He was trapped. She turned to Soret, who's cheecks were sparking. "Thunder!" she did a quick movement, then the bolt went out. "Oww!" Buneary wailed, but ignored it and used FocusPunch. Soret went fling in the air, only to land uptop of Buneary. She soon set her fangs in Buneary's curled ear. Buneary smiled and quickly unrolled it, knocking Soret off with a bruise. She hit the ground and sighed.
Pikachu wasn't on a team. "Buneary! Oh, watch out- wait, Soret! Stop!" He was stuck in an ice prison, in an ice cage. He wasn't giving up. He scratched, bit, and tackled the ice with all his might.
Meanwhile, the sun was rising and the rest of the gang were getting up. They soon relized there was no sign of Buneary or Pikachu. "Pikachu? Pikachu, buddy! Hey, where are you? Pikachu?" Ash cried out, looking for his best friend. Dawn was just as worried but with tears. "B-Buneary! Where...are you?" She wailed. Brock was looking for clues of them. "I see footprints!" He exlaimed. He called Ash and Dawn over, and they all followed.
Soret used Thunder. It missed and Buneary did a IceBeam counter attack. It missed mostly everything, but her tail froze. The sun had now made dawn, and Soret had an idea. She dashed straight toward Buneary, surprizing her foe. Soret's tail went pure white and she used her ultra-powerful IronTail. "Ahhh!" Buneary screamed. Soret hit Buneary with the move, and her very cold tail shot broken peices of sharp ice at Buneary.
"Nooo!"
