Me: Ok this chapter is going to be long-er

Me: Ok this chapter is going to be long-er. Don't wanna say long cause I don't know what long is to my readers.

Paul: Whatever does it matter?

Me: Yes it does. Now go away! You know in a review someone wanted you to go die for what you said before! (Smirks)

Paul: And I care why?

Me: Oh shut up! (growls and mumbles disclaimer)

As Dawn continued on her way, still angry at the other boys Ash and Brock, she sighed. She doesn't like getting angry. It takes to much energy and then once you storm away you get lonely. Whatever! They deserved it! She thought miserably to herself. Without looking where she was going Dawn walked straight into a Beedrill nest.

"Ow!" She said not noticing all the angry Beedrill swarming her.

"Dawn watch out!" Ash yelled

"Troublesome!" Paul also yelled. She looked up and screamed. Dawn sent out Pachirisu and it used discharge. The Beedrill became angrier and she screamed again.

"Elikid! Use thunderpunch now! Paul yelled.

"Pikachu use thunderbolt!" Ash cried out. Both attacks hit and the Beedrill turned away from Dawn onto the two trainers.

"I can take care of myself!" said Dawn angrily. "Pachirisu use sweet kiss now!" The Beedrill became confused and started spinning.

"Now use Iron tail Pikachu!" Ash yelled.

"Use Brick brake now!" said Paul.

"NO! Use discharge again Pachirisu!" Dawn said eager to show that she COULD in fact take care of herself. All of the attacks hit and the Beedrill fled. Dawn turned and glared at the two boys.

"I can take care of myself you know!" she said.

"Didn't look like it the way you handled those Beedrill." Ash retorted. Dawn advanced on him and said

"I can TOO take care of myself. I've said it a hundred times NO NEED TO WORRY!" she yelled at him about to lunge when Paul held her back. She glared daggers at him and shook him off. Turning Dawn hugged her Pachirisu causing her hair to frizz up.

"Just great." She mumbled to herself pushing her hair down flat again. She began walking again with her nose in the air and her arms crossed. The confused Pachirisu scrambled after her and leaped onto her head. She laughed at this and brought it down. She gently placed it on the ground before her hair poofed up again. She returned it to its pokeball after giving Pachirisu a pofin and continued walking. Ash, still somewhat angry, ran to catch up with her.

"Dawn!" he whined "Why are you so mad?"

"Don't whine to me Ash Ketchum! I'm NOT your mother!" she said annoyed and turned the other way.

"Dawn, come on what did I do?" he asked again.

"You started arguing with Paul, woke me up this morning and are acting like an eccentric boyfriend wannabe!" she said stopping and putting her hands on her hips.

"Well maybe there is a reason I'm acting like that!" he exclaimed.

"What? That your jealous that I like Paul? Phu-lease! If I remember correctly, the last time I poured my heart out to you, you acted like it was no more that a simple battle question!"

"I'm sorry! Ok! It doesn't mean I don't like you!"

"Wow Ash! You are really dense! Go away!" she said turning and walking again.

"But Dawn! I DO like you." He said grabbing her arm.

"I know that! You always like everyone. Ash you're nice but dense now get OFF me!" she tried to shake him off but he gripped harder.

"No! I…" she stopped struggling and looked at him still angry. "I…Love you Dawn." Ash said and let go. Her face softened for a minute while Paul's eyes widened.

"You…you…Ash I…" she turned away all anger evaporating. This can not be happening to me! Can this day get any worse?! She thought.

"Too bad! You are too late Pathetic. She likes me." said Paul angrily stepping between them.

"Paul!" said Dawn pushing in front of him. "Look Ash I'm sorry but Paul is right I do like him."

"You lost your chance when you blew her off!" said Paul.

"How do you know about that?!" asked Ash angrily.

"I know some things." was Paul's reply.

"Stalker." Dawn mumbled and smiled inwardly. "Anyways, let's keep traveling right Brock?" said Dawn somewhat nervously pulling the older breeder by the arm. She glanced back at the other two trainers who were glaring at each other.

"How about a battle! Winner gets to take Dawn on a date!" growled Ash at Paul.

"Deal! Get ready to lose both the battle and the girl, Pathetic!" Paul growled back.

"No! I'm not going on a date with either of you this way!" Dawn cried out and stepped between the two trainers like she had back in the Oreburg Gym.

"Why not? It will show who is the better trainer of us two!" Ash whined again while Pikachu jumped onto Dawns head.

"Well that is obviously another reason she doesn't like you. You're such a baby!" Paul smirked.

"Paul stop smirking and Ash stop whining! I'm not dating either of you now come on!" she linked her arm through both boys and started dragging them along. They heard a rustling in the bushes and out came an arm to a machine and grabbed Pikachu who was still on Dawn's head. Then Jessie, James and Meowth came out as well.

"It looks like you have your hands full with the two boys' twerp so we'll just be taking-"

"Shut up Jessie! I don't have time for this! Go Ambipom! Use Swift now!" said Dawn annoyed letting go off the boys and sending out Ambipom. The machine broke and opened. Pikachu came out and used thunderbolt on them.

"Looks like we are blasting off again!" The team Rocket group called.

"See I can TOO take care of myself." said Dawn smirking at the two boys who hadn't move a muscle. "Are you ok Pikachu?" she said crouching down to pet the little electric type.

"Pika Pi!" it responded smiling and patting Dawn's hand. Dawn turned back to the boys who still stood rooted to the spot.

"Hello? Anybody home?" she said waving her hand in front of their faces. They snapped back into reality as Dawn turned away in disgust. She started walking and Ash ran to catch up to her.

"Dawn…do you really…like him more than me?" he asked in a hurt voice.

"No, but I like him as a boy likes a girl, and a girl likes a boy. I do LIKE you Ash just not as a boyfriend, at least not anymore." She replied gently.

"Yea she likes me as her boyfriend, don't you troublesome?" asked Paul slipping his arm around her waist. Blushing and forgetting about Ash completely she just looked at Paul.

"I…uh-I-I-I…um…tehe?" she replied her blush increasing as Ash rolled his eyes and Brock whistled. Dawn gently shook him off and looked at her feet. Now why on this entire pokemon planet did I do that?! She thought.

Paul shrugged and continued walking as if nothing had happened at all. They saw a pokemon center up ahead. Just in time too! Thought Dawn. She happily barged through the doors and straight into another trainer.

"I'm so sorry! I…" she trailed off when she realized who it was.

"Dawn? Is that you!" said the other trainer in shock!

"Yes! I can't believe it! Hi!" she sprang up and gave the other trainer a huge hug.

"Yea, it's been awhile…" said the trainer patting her on the back. Dawn let go blushing and said

"Are you staying here tonight?"

"Yes I was just going to train wanna come?" the trainer replied.

"Sure let me just get a room." Dawn, forgetting all about Paul, Ash and Brock, quickly got a room from Nurse Joy and followed the other trainer outside.

Me: HAHAHAHAHA! Now you have to wait and see who this mystery trainer is and what's going to happen. Hint: Paul doesn't like him, at least in this fan fic.

Paul: But it's SO obviouse who it is! It's –

Me: DON'T! (springs on Paul and covers mouth)

Paul: muhahuaaahueha!

Me: what? (removes hand from his mouth)

Paul: Fine I won't say anything now get OFF!

Me: Hmph.

Paul: I will say that this trainer is a perverted (beep!)

Me: Paul! Go wash your mouth right now! WITH SOAP!

Paul: make me.

Dawn: Ok I will.

Me & Dawn: (grab Paul and drag him into the bathroom)

Me: see you next time! Keep tuned to see who this trainer is that Paul hates so much. (Shuts door and you hear a faint gagging noise)
