The Stranger

Summary: After getting into ANOTHER fight with Ash, Misty runs off to be by herself but she doesn't realise how much danger she is really getting into. Will Ash be able to save her in time or will he be ridden with guilt for the rest of his life?

Ash, Misty and Brock are the same ages as they are in the anime

Just to be clear this is someone thinking and "this is someone speaking"


Chapter 3

The place was magical. She was standing in the middle of the brightly coloured viridian forest. The trees were so tall and thick that she couldn't see the sky. Only Green. She could hear the small waterfall trickling through the deep forest. When she turned and saw it, it looked so clean. A deep blue colour.

Bees zoomed past her ear and as she jumped out of the way to avoid them, she fell over one of the many large tree roots which were sticking up out of the ground. She quickly jumped up and started walking round.

She walked through a spot of sun which was coming through the gaps in the leaves. She stopped and warmed as the sun hit her. She closed her eyes and relaxed.

Suddenly the light went out. She opened her eyes and saw that the sun had been replaced with the moon. She shivered and hugged herself as it grew colder. She heard a crack behind her and whipped around to be face to face with Donovan.

"Got you now, bitch."

She screamed and tried to run but her legs wouldn't move. It was like they had just forgotten how to move. He grabbed her arms and started shaking her gently.

"Get off me, get off me!" She cried, trying to get her legs to move.

"Misty! Misty, come on. Misty!"

Misty opened her eyes and saw Ash above her shaking her awake. His eyes were filled with fear and concern. She started to cry as she realised it was just a dream. Ash saw her start to cry and quickly helped her sit up. He pulled her into a hug.

"Your ok now. C'mon, Misty it was just a dream. Everything is ok." He said gently.

"It was him... He had gotten to me," she sobbed. "I hate him! I hate him, I hate him, I hate him!"

"Shh, hey now, it's ok. Listen to me, he isn't going to hurt you any more, I won't let him."

Ash held her until he heard her sobs subside, then he pulled her away and looked down to her face. She looked down, away from his gaze.

"You must think I am an idiot," Misty whispered.

Ash put his fingers under her chin and pulled her face up to look in her eyes. "Not at all," he told her.

Misty looked into his eyes and saw nothing but the truth. She smiled at him and gave him another hug.

"C'mon, Brock and Pikachu have already gone down for breakfast. I said we would meet them there when we were ready." Ash told the girl in his arms.

"Ok, well let me get ready first then."

"Will do." Ash quickly jumped up and went to wait outside the room.
