Hey yall. I'm so sorry that it took so long to update, this chapter was giving me so much trouble and thanks to a friend, I was able to get inspired again. I've also been swamped with school because I'm starting on my 3rd week and I'm already behind XP
I'm sorry that it's shorter than the rest but this basically gets straight to the point.
Drew: Yea you left me wondering what was gonna happen for 2 weeks!
Me: ^^; Hehe my bad. Chapter 5 should be up later this week though because I actually wrote it before I wrote this one, and it still needs some touching up.
Drew: Oh I see so May's chapter is more important then mine?
Me: Gah I'm not getting into this. Haruka, can you help me?
Haruka: *sigh* Fine! Umbre/Callie does not own Pokemon.
EDIT: Hey i changed a few things because I got a brilliant idea on the bus this morning so I had to change it before I uploaded it to dA ^^
Time to Face Reality
"W-what do you mean? We are obviously at May's House." He glanced around almost as to assure himself that's where he was.
"Actually Drew, you're not." Haruka turned away she now how a worried look on her face. She had no idea how to break the news to him.
"Wait, what are you talking about? What are you not telling me!" He was now looming over her. Drew was now beyond freaked out. He's in a ghost town, talking to a Plusle about a missing person. It felt like anything more could push him over the edge. Haruka couldn't take it any longer either. Now that she had dropped her playful sarcastic side, she was freaking out as well, though she was able to stay slightly more composed. However those walls began to fall and her fists clenched as she spoke, trying to keep the tears from falling.
"We're in a coma," she mumbled. She felt the first tears falling down her face. Drew didn't hear her though.
"What did you say?"
"I SAID WE'RE IN A COMA!," She turned around and yelled at him. Tears were streaking down her face and he saw sparks coming out of her cheeks.
"I-I. . . .what?" Drew felt the color drain from his face. This couldn't be true. There was no way they could be in a coma. Then the unexpected happened.
Haruka's form began to glow a bright blue color and slowly began to grow into the size of a little girl. When the light dimmed, in her place stood a girl a head shorter than him, with bright red hair. She wore a light yellow dress, and the combination of colors reminded him of the colors of a Plusle.
"Haru. . .ka?" She nodded and then collapsed into his arms. He wrapped his arms around her small body and began attempting to console her, still trying to get over the shock of what just occurred.
"P-Please. . . . don't make. . . .me say it. . . .again." She was sobbing into his shoulder unable to hold back any longer. She knew that this would happen but she couldn't help it. Drew noticed that she seemed unfazed by her new form, wondering if this was normal.
"Alright I won't. But, can I ask. . . .how can you be for sure? And. . . .what just happened?" He looked down at her, still wishing that he was dreaming or if this was a sick joke. Haruka looked into his eyes and detached herself from his grasp.
"W-well, I'm not really sure," she began examining her hands and playing with the hem of her dress. He noticed she seemed to be hiding something but decided not to push the matter for now.
"Oh, ok. Well what about our. . . situation?" He tried to put the words as delicately as possible, trying not to upset her. She then looked back at him, her eyes still noticeably showing pain and sorrow.
"This. . . .should explain everything." She wiped the tears from her eyes and stepped away from Drew, her back to him. Haruka then waved a paw through the air revealing what looked like a portal or 'magic mirror'.
She stepped aside allowing him so come forward and peer through the portal. He gasped as he watched the scene before him, he felt tears forming in his eyes. There was no way she could be lying now, but he was still in shock.
"No. This can't be right!" He shouted. in the portal he saw May and himself in a hospital. Drew was lying down on a bed, unmoving. If he was at any other location people might have thought he was sleeping. May on the other hand was being restrained by several doctors while she attempted to get to him. It was then like he was watching a television show. Not only was he watching the scene, he could now hear it.
"DREW! ANSWER ME! PLEASE!" Screamed a helpless May, her hands were clawing at anything as she attempted to escape the grasps of the doctors.
"Miss! You can't do anything for now. Please just calm down! Your recklessness is keeping us from trying to help him." A young doctor, who looked to be in her 20s was speaking to her.
At those words May collapsed on the bed. Tears were streaming down her face and she was flushed from trying to reach Drew. He saw that the doctors were now leaving and May was left all alone. He then got a better look of her. She had a cast on her right arm, bandages across her torso, and numerous cuts along her legs, arms, and face. Seeing her there, alone, helpless, injured, made him want to reach out and hold her close. He extended his hand hoping something might happen but when he touched the image, his hand just went right through. As he closed his eyes,he felt the sting of one, hot tear rolling down his face.
"What happened?" Drew was thinking more along the lines of who did this but he was to stunned to even utter those words. He kept facing the portal as he spoke. Unable to tear his eyes from the scene before him. Haruka came up behind him, gripped his hand, and began looking at the scene as well.
"H-Honestly, I have n-no idea." He felt her grip tighten and she lowered her head. Suddenly, a light bulb clicked on for Drew.
"Haruka. . . . .What did you mean when you said 'We're in a coma'?" He turned to look at her, wondering what she had mean't. Haruka inwardly flinched at the word but tried to keep her voice steady.
"W-well, I was with you and May when the accident h-happened. All I remember is a f-flash and a scream," She shut her eyes and shook her head from that vision but continued. "Next thing I knew I w-was here and in front of the one and only M-Mew. She told me where I was and then I was sent to find you." Haruka then waved her hand in front of the portal showing a new place. "This is where I actually am."
The scene now showed the Pokemon Center. Drew peered in the portal again and saw her laying in a small bed, unmoving, just like he was currently. Then he noticed another Pokemon, a Green Minun, Drew recognized it as the one May had caught when he caught Haruka. He was holding Haruka's paw and softly speaking to her in Poke-speak. Drew then heard a noise and saw that she was crying again.
"Hey, it's alright. We'll make it through this." He held her close, feeling her steady breathing, trying not to lose it. The tears were ready to fall but he wouldn't allow them. He had to stay strong for her.
"Hey Haru?"
sniff "Y-yea?"
"Did Mew mention anything about how we could possibly get out of this?" He was hoping she would say yes. Out of everything bad he'd heard so far, he wanted to hear something good.
"A-actually she did mention something but I-I don't understand what she means by it."
"Well what did Mew say?" Finally a chance. Drew was ready for anything that Haruka would say next. No matter what the cost, or how difficult the task might be, he would do it. He had to find a way back home, one way or another.
How'd ya like that? :D
Drew: Well, at least I'm not dead!
Haruka: Man I look like a sissy!
Me: *facepalm* Am I ever going to be able to please you two?
Drew and Haruka: Nope!
Me: *sigh* Anyways thanks for reading and please make sure to review ^^
