Me: *waves at random people* Hey everybody! I'm glad you're all here to read my fabulous story!
Paul: *walks up from behind* You mean people actually read this crap?
Me: *sweat drops* Uh…he doesn't mean that! *pulls on Paul's ear* I told you to stay backstage with Dawn.
Paul: She wanted me to try on a leotard in the dressing rooms. *shudders*
Me: *sigh* Fine. Stay.
Paul: Oh great. Because I actually invited everyone else.
Me: What!
Paul: *turns around* Come on in, everyone. She says its fine!
Ash: *runs in* Yay! *waves at the random people* Hey, everybody! I'm Ash!
Misty: *cheeks redden* Ash, stop. You're embarrassing me.
Ash: *scratches the back of his head* Oh, sorry.
Brock: *crosses arms* Misty, Ash can't help who he is.
Ash: *glares at Brock*
Me: *looks around* Where's May and Drew?
May and Drew: *falls on stage, kissing, passionately*

Iris: All day.
Cilan: *sweat drops* They certainly do love each other.
Dawn: *runs on stage* Paul! There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you!
Paul: *freezes* Oh crap.
Dawn: Now, come on! You have to try on this leotard! *points to pink leotard in her hand*
Paul: No! *runs away*
Dawn: But you'll look cute in it! *runs after him around the stage*
Me: *looks around* *sighs* *goes off to a dark corner and hugs knees* Why me?
Cilan: *sweat drops and laughs, nervously* I guess I'll say the disclaimer.
Iris: Not without me, you're not.
Cilan: Fine. Ready?
Iris: Yeah.
Cilan and Iris: CrazyGirl100 doesn't own anything, including us.
Axew: *pops from Iris's hair* Axew!
Paul: *in the background* Oh god, help me!
Dawn: *in the background* Hold still while I put this on you!
The elevators doors slid open, as I quickly ran out of the hotel machine. But my running soon turned to slow walking, as I put a hand over my heart in fright. My cerulean eyes grew wide in terror at the sight that was cursed upon me. Azurill pulled itself closer to my head, as it also appeared to be scared by the scene. My heart beat rapidly against my chest, pumping with anxiety.
The beautiful flooring of the hotel was now rugged and ruined with steam rolling off some parts as it singed with smoke. The walls had various holes of different shapes and sizes, as I continued my path down the hallway toward room 115.
I looked down at the floor that was in front of room 115, as the door lay bluntly on its back, torn right off its hinges. I slowly turned my head so I could get a better look inside the boys' hotel room. I let out a light gasp at what I saw.
The five beds that were laid perfectly in a neat line when I left, had been turned upside down and thrown in different directions, one even being thrown into the wall, creating a hole the size of a Venusaur.
I gazed down at my feet, as I cautiously took a step forward, preparing for the worst, as if it was one of those scary movies, where the villain would pop out from an unseen place that you wouldn't expect them to be and kill you, right there.
"What the heck happened? I'm gone for close to fifteen minutes, and they make this place look as if a tornado had hit it." I say, putting my hands on my hips.
I walk toward the bed in the wall, as I try to pull it out with no luck. "Well, this is going nowhere." I say.
"Azurill ril." 'I wonder what happened.' Azurill says on my shoulder.
"Me too." I mutter. "Where are they, anyways?"
Suddenly, as if on cue, the bathroom door wiggles open, as three girls fall out with a yellow Pokémon tumbling along with them.
"Ow." They say, as they all sit up, rubbing their aching backs and arms.
"Dawn, May, Iris!" I say. "What are you doing in the bathroom?"
Iris stands up first with a glare engraved on her face. "Oh you know, taking a leak. Where were you?" She asks, angrily, as she places her hands on her hips.
"I told you I was going for a walk. What happened here? And where are the boys?" I asked, as the yellow Pokémon scrambled up and jumped into my arms.
Pikachu rubbed its head deeps into my stomach as it hugged me, tightly. It shivered with fear, as its face showed a face mixed with confusion and pure terror. "Pikachu." I said, as I started to rub its head with hope that that would comfort it. "What's wrong? What happened?"
The girls all shared a look at each other, before Dawn looked at me and opened her mouth. "The boys. We don't know what happened." Tears sprinkled out of her eyes, as if it was hurting her to explain.
"What happened?" I asked.
"We don't know." May says. "They were in bed one moment, all sick and weak, and then suddenly, they're up destroying everything in sight, all strong and scary."
My eyes widened. Oh my Arceus. "So the boys caused this?" I ask, bewildered.
Iris nods. "Yeah. We were lucky to make it in the bathroom and lock the door. After they destroyed the bedroom, they were aiming toward us. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have never known that they were gone."
"My gosh." I whisper. "And what happened with Pikachu?"
Dawn looked at Pikachu with sadness in her eyes. "It got traumatized a little, I guess. This is probably the first time that it has ever seen Ash act like this."
"Dear God." I whisper, as I look down at the scared Pokémon in my arms. "Do you know where they went?"
"No. Remember we were trapped inside a bathroom." Iris remarks. "So we have no idea where they could be."
"What time is it?" I ask, looking around the room.
May looks toward a nearby clock on the wall, and points at it. "Around 5:30."
"What?" I say, surprised. "What time did we get up?"
Dawn puts her index finger on her chin in thought. "Around one now that you mention it."
I face palm with my free hand. Great. Just great. I sigh, before looking up at the girls. "Well, we have to find them."
"Uh no way." Iris says, walking backwards.
"Why not?" I ask.
"Um, because they're the new assassins!" Iris yells a little too loudly, making Axew pop its head out of her hair.
"Axe?" Axew questions, as it looks at Iris with its red eyes.
"Look. I know they've been acting strange lately, but they're our friends, our boyfriends too." I add in my hopes of persuading them to help find the boys.
"Hey. I like being in one piece, thank you." Iris says.
Dawn's eyes grow wide at her comment. "What?" She cries.
May's eyes widen as well, as she puts a hand on Dawn's shoulder, and soothes to her. "Don't worry. Iris was just kidding." But judging by the expression on Dawn's face, I could tell she wasn't convinced.
"Come on, please?" I plead.
Iris sticks her brown nose in the air with a mighty humph. "No." She says, sternly.
I caress my chin with my thumb and index finger. Soon thinking of an idea, I turn to Iris and say, "But what about Cilan?"
Iris's back straightens at my question. "What do you mean?" She asks, nervously, turning her head around.
"I mean Cilan is one of the victims. He's also acting psychotic. Do you not care about your boyfriend?" I question, raising an eyebrow, mockingly.
Iris swiftly turns around. "What? Of course I care about him!"
I cross my arms, before asking, "Then why won't you help us find him?"
Iris is about to say something, but stops. I know my words have stung like a Beedrill, deep inside her. She had forgotten that Cilan was one of the crazies as well. Not to mention, he also had a fever the temperature of a volcano. Iris knew she had to help him or he wouldn't get better.
"So?" I say. "Its either be a hero…" I smirk before finishing the line. "Or be a kid."
Iris's brown eyes snap open after hearing my words. "What did you just say?"
"You heard me!" I snap. If I get Iris all riled up, then I know that she'll help us. Azurill quickly hid behind my head. It knew a fight was going to be taken place.
Iris's face blazes as hot as a campfire. "Oh! I am not a kid!" Iris yells, making Dawn and May hug each other, closely in fear.
"Really? Because that's what you look like now!" As I shout that, Iris shrieks out a horrified gasp. Time to put in a little spice to this conversation. "A weak, bratty, selfish, little kid!"
"Why you little-! You've got some nerve to call me that!" Iris says, as two orange horns start to grow out of the back of her head.
"More nerve than you'll ever have!" I snap back. Iris growls, showing her perfect white teeth turning into razor-sharp dragon teeth.
"You're gonna pay for that!" Iris snapped, pointing a daggered finger at me.
I thought for a response, before saying, "Why? Because you're poor?"
May's jaw dropped in awe while Dawn put a hand over her lips and said, "Oooo." Her crystal blue eyes darted from me to Iris.
Iris breathed heavily, her shoulders heaving up and down in frustration and anger. "Fine! I'll go with you! But quit calling me a kid! Continue to, and you're hair really will be fiery orange!" Iris says, as she stomps out the door.
I smirked and looked at Dawn and May. "Skill." I mutter, before following Iris.
Iris crossed her arms, as she directed a glare toward me. "So? Which way?"
"What do you mean?" Dawn said, as she and May walked out of the room and into the hallway.
Iris sighed, blowing a strand of loose hair out of her eyes. "I mean which way do we go to find the boys?"
"Oh! Right." I say. "Um." I look both ways down the hallway. Both not showing a trace as to where the boys might've gone.
"Well. Why don't we split into groups?" I say.
"Say what now!" Iris yells, eyes as large as saucers. "The boys just left on a rampage to kill us and you us want to split up!"
That made me a shrink down a little in cowardness. "Um…yes?"
Iris narrowed her deeply brown eyes at me. But soon stopped as Dawn raised a slow hand up. "Um. If you want, I'll go with Misty."
My eyes opened up a little in surprise. "Really?"
"Yeah. I want to find Paul. I want to him better." Dawn said, walking toward me, hands in front of her, shyly. "Please help me."
I smiled, warmly, at the blunette. "Of course I'll help you." I looked up at May and Iris. "Looks like the teams are settled. Me and Dawn and you and May." I say toward Iris.
Iris scrunches up her nose in disgust, before looking away and rolling her eyes, saying, "What. Ever."
I pointed to a path leading to the end of the hallway. "Okay. Me and Dawn will stay in the hotel and look for the boys." Then I pointed another direction which, if the walls and paint weren't there, would show the beach. "And you two, will look on the beach."
May saluted at me in a stance of a soldier. "Ay, ay, ma'am." She said.
Iris rolled her eyes again and grabbed May's wrist. "Oh, come on!" Iris growled as she pulled May behind her. Then once at the end of the hallway, they walked into the elevator and traveled downward.
I looked at Dawn and smiled. "We'd better get going."
Dawn nodded her face full of determination and strength. "Right." Then we started on our journey to find the boys.
Once nearing the end of the path (a.k.a. the hallway), Dawn and I turned a corner to reveal another hallway of doors had been assembled there. Dawn and I looked at the many rooms as we passed by, nervously.
"This place gives me the creeps." Dawn says, holding her arms together and shuddering.
"Yeah." I agree. "And you know what's weird?"
Dawn looks at me with curiosity. "What?"
"You know that woman in charge of the check-in desk?"
"Yeah? Jessilinda, right?"
"Mhm."
"What about her?"
"Well, when I went past the desk, you know when I went on my walk?"
"Yeah."
"Well, she wasn't at the desk."
Dawn raised an eyebrow. "That's strange."
"I know right?" I say.
"Totally." Suddenly, Dawn stopped. "Wait. Where are we going?"
I stopped as well and looked around. "Oh God, please tell me we're not lost."
Dawn looked at me. "No, no! We're not lost." Dawn looked forward again. "At least, I hope we're not lost." Then she looked around, cluelessly, for a few moments, before looking back at me again. "Are we lost?"
"No. No. We're not lost." I say in hopes of soothing me and Dawn.
"I hope you're right." Dawn says.
"Piplup." Piplup says from Dawn's beanie.
"Azurill." Azurill says from my shoulder.
Suddenly, a muffled cough echoes into the depths of the hallway. Dawn and I slowly turn around. Our eyes widen, as my heart is forced into my throat in fear. Standing there, on the other side of the hallway, with their arms crossed, are Ash and Paul.
One side of me would've smiled, brightly, like a complete lunatic, and run toward Ash, hugging and kissing him as if there was no tomorrow. But that Misty would have to wait. The Misty that was here was standing in the hallway with Dawn close beside her in horror, as we looked at our scary looking boyfriends.
They smiled evil smiles while their hair was messier than before. My pupils glanced down at their mood bracelets which were pumped up with life and energy. But the scariest thing about them, were their eyes.
Ash's eyes were usually a sweet chocolate brown which would always make me want to smile and wrap him up in a loving hug, cherishing the moments that we had with each other. But now, his eyes were barely brown anymore while the other half of his eyes was a pure red. This red wasn't the red that you find as a loving color on Valentine's Day. This was the red of a horrific thing that you find in a demon; a demon that has bit into its victims, killing them with every piece of strength left in its body.
"Ash? Is that you?" I ask, slowly, raising a hand up toward him.
Ash narrows his eyes, while he chuckles a wicked laugh. "Ah. Misty. You were always my favorite."
I knew that this wasn't the time to be gushy and mushy, but my lips accidently let the word escape! "Aw." I swoon.
Dawn looked at me and then Paul and Ash. "So, I'm guessing you're all better?"
Paul grinned, deeply, showing off his sharp teeth. "Much better. We're totally energized."
"We'll that's good. Right?" I ask, smiling, nervously.
Ash laughed again. "It's pretty sad, really."
Dawn and I look at each other, before asking in unison, "Why?"
Ash and Paul smiles spread wider across their faces, simultaneously, as they say, "We're going to use our power to kill you!"
Dawn and I gasp in fear, before quickly running away, down the hallway. Ash and Paul's laughter haunts through the narrow path. "You can't get away from us that easily!" Ash yells, before throwing a powerful electro-ball at me.
Okay. I'm done. Hopefully, this didn't suck as a chapter. I just wanted to get it done while I could. You see, for some reason, my computer keeps freezing up on me while I'm doing things, so it's been pretty difficult with writing and all. So if the next chapter doesn't come in a few weeks, you'll know why. But I will say Happy Thanksgiving to the ones that celebrate it. And I hope you enjoy the chapter. And yes, as always, please review. Reviews make everyone on the cast, here, happy.
Random Harley: I don't like reviews.
Me: WHO ASKED YOU! Anyways, please review. ^^
