The Curse: The Hard Night
"Ash, wait up," Dawn said to Ash.
"Yeah Ash the battle is not going to start for a while," Brock said.
"Does he do this a lot," Hoshi asked Dawn.
"Yeah," Dawn replied.
"Ash, Sacred is very far away even if we ran we won't get there anytime soon," Hoshi said.
"Fine you win," Ash said. The three finally caught up to Ash. It was close to sunset at the time.
"Let's camp for the night," Brock said.
"Night," Hoshi said. Then Hoshi started to freak out for a bit. She forgot about the curse.
"Are you ok," Ash asked.
"Yeah um… you won't see me a lot in the night ok," Hoshi told Ash.
"Why," Dawn asked.
"Well… um… it's private ok sorry I'm going to camp in a dark forest ok," Hoshi told them.
"How about dinner," Brock asked.
"I'm fine… go on ahead with out me," Hoshi said to them, "Come on out guys." Hoshi said and release her pokemon. There was an Infernape, Staraptor, Sneasel, Dragonair, and Drifloon.
"Ok guys meet my new friends this is Ash, Brock, and Dawn. Ash, Brock and Dawn this are some of my pokemon friends. The Infernape is Flame, the Staraptor is Breeze, Sneasel is Shadow, Dragonair is Mystic and Drifloon is Nimbus. Also my pokemon Star the Pikachu my first pokemon and friend," Hoshi said.
"Awesome," Dawn said.
"Hey that is the Staraptor that guide me toward you and Pikachu," Ash said.
"They all look health and happy," Brock said.
"Thanks," Hoshi said she look toward the sun it about to go down, "Um can they play around they always get out of there pokeball and come sleep with me."
"Sure," the three said.
"Guys behave I be in the tent tonight ok," Hoshi said. All the pokemon nodded. They know about her secret.
"Star and Flame you're in charge," Hoshi said, "I see you guys in the morning."
"Wait aren't you hang around for a while," Dawn said.
"Sorry no I… wake up early in the morning a lot so I'm really tried so… yeah. As soon as you guys sleep they know where to fine me," Hoshi said and went into the woods with her tent.
"I wonder," Ash said.
"Ash do not meddle," Dawn said.
"I never do that," Ash said.
"Well guys want to help," Dawn said to Hoshi's pokemon but the pokemon didn't answer. Then Star talked them into it. Then they all nodded and went with Ash, Brock, and Dawn. Mystic and Nimbus went with Dawn. Flame and Shadow went with Brock. Also Star and Breeze went with Ash. Dawn helped Brock cook with the four pokemon and Ash was training with the help of Star and Breeze. Then soon it got dark.
"Hey Ash dinner is ready," Brock called for Ash.
"Ok," Ash said, "Ok thanks Breeze and Star let's get something to eat."
"I wonder if Hoshi will be fine without dinner," Brock said.
"Hey I know I bring a bowl to her," Ash said. Star and Flame ears twitched.
"That's a good idea Ash," Dawn said. Star, Flame and the other pokemon freaked out. It puzzled Ash, Dawn and Brock.
"Are they ok," Dawn asked.
"Oh I forgot," Brock said and brought out pokemon food, "dig in." The pokemon ate some of it and then they smiled. But they were still worried so Star and Flame told them to eat and they went after Ash to stop him from getting any closer to Hoshi in a Pikachu form.
Hoshi tent sight…
"I'm so hungry,' Hoshi muttered in pokemon.
"Hoshi where are you," Ash said outside the tent.
"Ash," Hoshi muttered in pokemon.
"Hoshi," Ash called out.
"Flame we can't let Ash find out about Hoshi's little secret," Star said to Flame.
"I know let's just stop him," Flame said.
"Hoshi, are you in there," Ash said as he walked towards the tent.
"Oh no," Hoshi muttered again. But the Star and Flame stopped Ash.
"Oh hey what's wrong," Ash asked the two pokemon. Flame and Star covered the tent door then Ash knew what's wrong.
"Oh I get she doesn't like people see her in the tent right, just like Dawn ok here give this soup to her," Ash asked Flame and Pikachu. Flame grabbed the bowl. Then Ash walked back to camp where Dawn and Brock is. Flame and Star watch him off till they heard Ash talk to the others. Then Flame went in along with Star.
"Thanks you two," Hoshi said.
"No problem," both Flame and Star said together.
"Here," Flame gave the soup to Hoshi.
"Thanks," Hoshi said to Flame.
"Don't thank me, thank Ash, that's why he was here," Flame said.
"Oh," Hoshi said, "Well go back and finish your meals then come back ok."
"Ok," Star said and Flame nodded. They walked out and went back to camp. 'I hate this curse,' Hoshi thought.
It was a close call for Hoshi but how long is her secret going to last come on back…
