Chapter 4

A week has passed since everything at Dawn's birthday and May has kept her distance from the queen.

She had been banished to her room for a month after the party ended and to say the least… she was very bored.

She lied on her bed and stared at the celling and just watched as the sun rays slowly moved across it "Beautifly!" yelled a pokemon from her window.

May sat up and walked over to her balcony and opened it "Beautifly what are you doing here? You know the queen will kill you if she saw you" she scolded as the pokemon bowed its head in sadness "Vee!" May heard from below her balcony.

May gave Beautifly a sceptical look before walking over to the edge only to see some of the smaller wild pokemon she had befriended "Eevee, Skitty and Squirtle?" she questioned before seeing they had a basket of berries in front of them. May smiled down at them before she went back into her room and got changed into her commoner clothing before she climbed down the vines that grew next to her wall.

She ushered the small pokemon into the forest before she was welcomed by the rest of the pokemon she had befriended.

Despite the queen's hatred for pokemon battles, saying that only boys should do it, it pushed May to want to do it more. That's how she got into horse riding, acrobatics and sword fighting.

May climbed one of the trees where a Skarmory had a giant nest and sat in it as the baby Skarmory welcomed her happily "Hey guys it's been a while huh?" she asked with a smile as they snuggled up to her.

May parted a few branches in front of her to see the village down below. The farmers were doing their crops and the markets were as busy as ever. She looked down to the pokemon on the ground, that were playing 'They must have been worried about me' she thought to herself.

As she watched she couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to live as a commoner. She knew that most girls her age would have already had a child but she just wanted to know what it would be like to live in those small houses and have a real purpose instead of being some kind of trophy for her father.

As she saw that the market place was filling up she knew this would be the best time to pull a little sleight of hand.

She climbed down the tree and looked to her pokemon "Ivysaur I think we should do the hit and run tactic today" she said as Ivysaur nodded and they ran off to the village.

It just so happened, that Drew and his brothers were going to do a similar thing that day "So what are we doing today?" Kenny asked "I was thinking we get Drew to be surrounded by a bunch of girls and when everyone is wondering what's going on we take a few things" Ash said as they walked through the streets.

Drew grumbled in annoyance "Why do I have to be the distraction?" Drew asked "Because we were last time" Kenny said referring to a few days ago when he and Ash faked a fight so Drew could steal some met from the butchers "Yea so get to flirting" Ash said as he ushered his brother towards a group of girls.

Drew sighed and started flirting to them "Their doing it again" May mumbled as she watched the boys to their play.

Truth be told, she has seen a lot of their tricks before and actually got inspired by them. After the boys were done they casually walked out of there like they did absolutely nothing.

May spotted a woman with a giant basket filled with apples and decided this was the best time for anything "Ivysaur that woman there" she said as she pointed to the woman.

Ivysaur looked up to her then smiled and started charging. Just as Ivysaur was about to hit the woman May yelled "Look out!" and the woman looked towards May and was knocked over by the charging pokemon.

Ivysaur quickly grabbed a few apples with vine whip. May ran up to the woman and began piling up the apples into the basket "Are you alright?" she asked as she put the last of the apples away and helped her up "Yes thank you dear" the woman said before picking up the basket and walking off "Goodbye" she said as she bowed her head slightly "And thank you" she mumbled as she walked off with an apple in her hand.

Later she fund Ivysaur to see she was waiting patiently on a barrel by a tavern "Good job Ivysaur" May said as she pet its head.

Ivysaur smiled up at May and gave her one or its apples "Thank you little one" May said as she hugged the apple happily as she thought how lucky she was to have pokemon like Ivysaur.

Unknown to her she was being watched.

Drew and his brothers had gone to the tavern where Drew worked at night and sat at a table next to a window in the corner.

Kenny and Ash ordered some food and Drew just sat there in silence.

He had this strange feeling to look behind him for some reason. When he did he saw a young girl with coconut coloured hair pulled into a ponytail and dressed in a deep blue dress and bandana.

Drew watched her intently for a few moments as she was given an apple by an Ivysaur.

When she turned around Drew's eyes widened to see she was the girl from the princess' birthday "Drew!" Ash yelled causing Drew to turn around and face his siblings "What?" he questioned "He's been calling you for the past minute… what out there is so interesting?" Kenny asked as he looked out the window. Drew did to only to see she was gone.
