Disclaimer: I still don't own Pokèmon…

A/N: This is now Misty's POV! Sorry it took so long! I hope you enjoyed the story so far. Now, let's continue to chapter 4!

So Gary said that he needed to get a picture, huh? Well I know just the right guy! Our old friend: Snap! He takes nice pictures of wild pokèmon, so I figured that he could take a decent picture of Ash acting responsible. At least I think so. "All we have to do is get him to do something responsible, but I don't see how. He's not the most responsible guy in the Pokèmon World." I told them.

"Well, what's something that's responsible?" May asked.

I thought it was a good question. Last time I seen him, Ash made careless mistakes all of the time. Then again, I was told that he changed since then. He probably knows more about pokèmon, and he probably has been through more adventures than the kind we went on. Maybe he did grow to be more responsible. Yeah, right! Like he'd do that! Then again…, I looked over at Dawn who just stood there innocently. Her hands were clasped behind her back and the right toe of her boot was dug into the ground. I remembered that Dawn had first started her journey when she met Ash. Maybe he taught her a thing or two. Hey! Teaching is a sign of responsibility! "Well, I'm sure Ash has taught Dawn a few things, right?" I asked her.

"Yeah, he did actually." She replied a little embarrassed. "Why do you ask?"

"I was thinking. If we can get a picture of Ash teaching Dawn something pokèmon related, his mom will have to let him stay!" Is anyone getting what I'm saying?

"Good idea, Misty!" Gary cheered.

"Yeah, it'll work big time!" Brock exclaimed afterwards.

"Now, who's the guy you were talking about to take this picture?" Dawn asked.

"It's nice to see you again, Snap!" I greeted as none other than Todd Snap jumped off of Professor Rowan's jeep.

"It's nice to see you, too. Good thing I was already in the Sinnoh Region!" He replied with his camera in his hands and his backpack slung over his shoulder.

"What were you doing in the Sinnoh Region?" Brock asked.

"After a while of taking pictures of pokèmon in the Kanto Region, I decided to travel and take pictures of new pokèmon. What are you doing here?"

"Well, we're here with Ash. He's going to compete in the Sinnoh League."

"That's nice."

"We have a favor to ask you." I said, cutting to the chase.

"Sure what?"

After telling him about the situation that happened earlier, Snap agreed and started pulling out different lenses. "This looks like the right one." He said after he pulled out the lens. "Now, I just have to adjust the white balance and the ISO setting." Snap started pressing buttons. I wish I knew what he was talking about! By the looks on everyone else's faces, I don't think they knew either! "It's kind of cloudy outside. I better not use the fill flash." He pressed a few more buttons. "Now, let's see…" he looked around. Then, he spotted Dawn's Piplup who was sleeping by a tree. "Can I take a picture of your Piplup?" He asked Dawn.

"Oh, okay." Dawn answered. She took that deep breath to yell for him, but Snap stopped him.

"No, don't!" He whispered. "I only take pictures of pokèmon when they don't know I'm taking a picture."

"Well, you are the master at photography. Go ahead."

"Did you forget? You're taking a picture of Ash." I told him.

"No, I'm just getting a few test shots in." he answered.

"And don't forget that Ash cannot find out that you're taking pictures of him." Gary added.

"That's right." Brock agreed.

"Don't worry! I'm a professional! Plus, I know a friend who works for PokèPals Magazine."

"Oh, I love that magazine! I have every edition!" May cheered.

"Once he gets on the cover with the top story, everything would just fall into place."

"How long does it take to make millions of copies of this magazine?" Dawn asked. "I thought it would take days."

"If we're talking about the paper copy, then yes, but it only takes a few clicks for it to be on the internet." Snap smiled. "Yep! Our Ash is going to be a star!" He pointed the camera towards Dawn. "Smile!" He snapped the photo of Dawn with her pearly whites. "It's a traditional portrait. As long as we have a real candid picture, it should look great. Now we just need an interview so she could put it in the magazine."

"Don't worry! We'll help you!" A voice called out of nowhere. We all looked around trying to find where it came from.

"Hello?" I called.

"Who's that?" Gary asked.

Just who is the person? Find out as soon as I can upload another chapter! Hopefully I could upload a little faster!
