"That's it!" Ash said, pointing at the slightly faded Zapdos. "That's the Pokemon I saw you with!"
"What?" Tristan asked.
"Really?" Brock frowned.
"Are you sure you weren't just dreaming again, Ash?" Misty asked, slightly annoyed.
"I wasn't dreaming! I really saw her with it! It was yellow and-"
"Ash, look out there," Tristan said, pointing towards the cliff.
"What's that?" Ash asked.
"That's a cardboard copy of Zapdos," Tristan said. "They place it there during this time of year because there's a festival held here in honor of the sighting of the legendary Pokemon. Zapdos is there, in the direction of which Zapdos came from. Moltres can be seen closer to the entrance to the town- the South- and Articuno can be seen near the North."
"You probably just saw her with the cardboard Zapdos," Brock said.
"Sorry about him, Ari. He dreams too much," Misty said.
"But I really saw it!" Ash protested as Misty walked away with Ari and Tristan.
"Come on Ash. Just give it a rest," Brock advised.
"It's beautiful!" Misty exclaimed, staring at the creek that eventually led to the ocean.
A fitting place for the legendary Pokemon Ari wrote and paused before writing again Anyone, really.
"Well, I'm guessing you guys want to hit the beach," Tristan said. "Afterwards, we can go to the festival when sunset comes."
"That sounds great," Brock said. "Girls! Beautiful, beautiful girls!"
"Is he… always like that?" Tristan asked as they stared after him.
"Yep," Ash and Misty nodded.
"Brock, wait for us!" the two shouted. Ash ran off. Ari gave Tristan a pointed look and he followed Ash, laughing and calling for Ash to wait up for him or he was going to get lost. Misty stayed back with Ari.
"So are you a Pokemon trainer?" Misty asked. Ari shook her head.
Poor health prevents me from traveling too much she wrote. Misty nodded.
"But you live next to the ocean. There are water Pokemon who'd love to be with you," Ari shook her head with a smile.
I've got everything I need she wrote. But what about you and Ash?
"Me and…Ash?" Misty blushed. "There is nothing going on between us!" Ari's shoulders shook with silent laughter.
Okay, keep telling yourself that.
"I am not telling myself that!" Misty said.
That didn't make any sense.
"No, I guess it didn't," Misty said. "But… it's Ash."
And I'm Ari but Tristan is crazy about me. There was a sad look in Ari's eyes as she wrote this and showed it to Misty.
"Don't you like Tristan?" Misty asked.
That's…that's not important. Ari said. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't be with him.
"How come? You can do anything you set your mind too," Misty encouraged.
It just wouldn't work. I'm pretty sure that I'm leaving once this festival ends, anyways.
"But Ari..." Misty said.
Please, drop it Misty. I've been here too long already.
"Well then how about travelling with us?" Misty asked. Ari shook her head.
No, I have... friends I'm meeting once I leave.
"At least you have travelling companions," Misty said, trying to reassure herself.
Don't worry about it, Misty. We're at the beach! Go have fun and play in the water. I have things to do anyways.
"Aren't you coming?" Misty asked. Ari shook her head and smiled.
I'll try and join you later. Go have fun with your Pokemon. Misty nodded and took off to the beach.
'Okay...' Ari thought to herself. 'Now to make sure that Ash fullfills his destiny.'
Me: Please tell me what you think. Review, please!
