Chapter 7: catching bugs

Ash and Violet cautiously entered the forest it was thick with trees which left big shadows along the path which had been created by people walking this route so often with patches of grass missing in places, occasionally you would run into help sign which gave people mainly young trainer's helpful tips such as don't disturb the Beedril which were big yellow bees with a big pointy stinger on its end or basic reminders like don't forget antidotes etc. etc.

It was also cloudy today which made it cooler Ash had already given Violet his jacket so she was warm and planned for charmander to make a nice warm fire tonight.

Violet was also on ash's mind it was day four of their journey's and this is the first time they weren't arguing in fact the atmosphere could be called jolly they laughed and joked with each other, violet cheered Ash and charmander on against a local trainer called mark.

It was an easy fight for Ash as mark only had three caterpie with him while Ash had Ace his pidgey a strong bird Pokémon with cool little tuft of hair which stuck up well anyway Ace beat two of the caterpie first by using gust and sand attack in combination while charmander had the easy job of beating the third which was easy with its flame thrower attack.

Although an easy battle for him and his Pokémon they still gained some experience which is all to the good thought ash before they reached pewter but there was some things on Ash's mind firstly he needed to catch a Pokémon that could beat brock the pewter city gym leaders rock Pokémon flying types were useless against them unless they knew steel wing and fire types although they can beat rock types were still disadvantaged.

He wanted to catch a new Pokémon which he could train in viridian forest so by the time they made it to pewter city it would be strong enough to beat brock that meant a bug type so caterpie or Weedle are the choices he had to choose from and he would have to evolve them to the final stages to have a chance of winning.

Ash thought this over in his mind and could only come to one conclusion he would have to catch a caterpie as in its final evolved form would have psychic abilities for example it learned confusion not long after it evolved yes thought ash it's the only way at the moment.

They had wandered by a little creek while ash was busy thinking so they stopped to get a drink and to wash quickly after all walking through a forest is dirty and thirsty work.

The second thing Ash had on his mind was his jealousy when violet had agreed to kiss Paul win or lose the other day even though he knew they didn't kiss his reaction baffled him they were just friends weren't they? He told himself maybe it wasn't jealousy but the feeling a big brother gets when a guy hits on his sister but Gary had said he thought I was jealous and to be honest he knows me better than myself sometimes argh maybe I will know why in time so Ash decided to stop analysing it.

They left the stream and carried on walking through the forest walking under the low branches and dark shadows sometimes stepping on stones or twigs which snapped.

It was an hour later when Violet who had lost pace with Ash was walking under one of the low hanging branches when something from the tree fell on her head "ahhhhhhhh" screamed violet whatever it is fell again this time on the ground.

Violet looked at the ground there looking up at her with beady little eyes a Weedle stood staring it had a pink nose , a sting on top of its head and end its body was brown with little pinks spots "let's see what the pokedex says" getting the pink pokedex out and scanned Weedle "Weedle the bug and poison type Pokémon, Weedle eats its weight of leafs every day it also fends off attackers with the sting atop its head" hmm who knew they get that hungry she thought "hey where are you going mister" she cried Weedle was busy making its getaway trying to hide behind a tree "go tornado" and out came the bird Pokémon ready to help "gust now on Weedle" tornado flew above Weedle flapping hard creating a powerful wind which lifted the Weedle in the air in to a tree causing it to shake Weedle managed to get up and crawl when something fell from the tree like a rock knocking it out this was her chance "poke ball go" throwing it hard at Weedle Weedle was pulled into the ball and caught instantly too tired to even struggle "yes I got a Weedle time to get Ash thank you and return tornado" recalling the small bird and picking up the poke ball smiling when suddenly !buzz! !buzz! !buzz! Oh no thought Violet beedril.

Ash was walking around quite happily when "Ash runnnnnnn" Violet shouted running past Ash screaming "what wrong vi?" !buzz!Buzz!Buzz! oh crap Beedrill beginning to run shouting at Violet "will you stop angering local Pokémon fist pidgey now this" violet shouted " not a good time tell me off later Ash look there's a river quick jump in" splash violet jumped in followed by Ash splash the beedril flew over them missing them Ash sighed looking at his soaked clothes and bag than glared at violet who smiled weakly "sorry".

It was now evening and Ash and Violet were drying off by a fire charmander made Ash was wandering what the next swarm of Pokémon violet would anger tired but amused violet was a sleep in her sleeping bag when Ash heard a rustling in the grass outside where their bags were.

As he reached his bag there with its face in his bag eating away their provisions was a bright green caterpie their usual colour not all were pink or purple oh well he thought I wanted to catch one how about one who likes my cooking "charmander go" whispered Ash and out appeared his loyal friend flame burning brightly in the dark "ok charmander tackle caterpie away from my bag than use flamethrower to knock it out ok " commanded Ash charmander nodded and crept behind caterpie and softly tackled it away not wanting to break his masters stuff, caterpie looked confused for a minute turned round to see what had disturbed it to see a big flame coming towards hurting him badly and the words "poke ball go" before all went black.

"excellent charmander we caught him we've got the Pokémon to beat brock now good night charmander" said ash recalling him Ash smiled he had a new team member and best off all caterpie had ate Violets breakfast not his laughing to himself he whispered "karma has a nice sense of humour".
