A Johto Journey Chapter 9 Only Love Will Break the Curse

Me: I'm ready to update!!!

May: YAY!!!!!!!! Wow that was fast.

Me: Well that's why it took me so long I had another chapter ready.

May: Hey where did Ash, Brock, Dawn, Diamond, Destiny, Zoey, and Soledad go?

Me: They are all in Sinnoh right now. And Soledad, I paid her to stay at a hotel so I could write in peace. So I'm not hearing, "When will I come back?" every five minutes.

May: Smart!

Drew: Can I go to the hotel?

May: Why?

Drew: 'Cause I'm bored and at least there's a game room in a hotel.

Me: No, you can't leave.

Drew: How are you gonna stop me? (Starts to leave)

Me: (Snaps figures. Drew shows up)

Drew: I hate you.

Me: I know. BTW for those of you who tried to review the last chapter and it wouldn't let you, there's a reason. But it would take too long to explain. But if you want you can review here about both of them. :) Chapter go!

May and Drew were on their way to Blackthorn City, but they had to get through the Ruins of Alph first. (Like I said I know nothing about Johto region. So I'm making it up)! May and Drew came to a fork in the road. May looked at the map.

"Ok, we need to go that way." May pointed to the right. Drew looked at the map.

"Actually we need to go left." May raised an eyebrow.

"You see this thing in my hand? It's called a map." Drew turned the map around. May had it upside down.

"Yes, and the map says we need to go left." Drew headed in that direction. May grumbled to herself, then fallowed Drew. May was reading a pamphlet about the Ruins of Alph. Drew had already read it, so it was May's turn. The pamphlet had information about the ruins history. May read that there was a legend about a princess who lived in the ruins hundreds of years ago. The princess's name was Zorea. Zorea died at a very young age. Legend has it, that before Zorea died, she put a curse on the ruins. If anyone were to disturb her rest, she would possess them. May's eyes went wide when she read the last part.

"Um, Drew? Are you sure we have to go through the ruins?" Drew stopped walking and turned to May. He knew May was scared from the tone of her voice.

"Yeah we need to. Why?"

"Well it's just…….um…….." Drew realized why May was scared.

"You read about Zorea didn't you?" May nodded yes. Drew smiled.

"Don't worry. I'll protect you." Drew took May's hand. May was blushing. After a while May and Drew reached the ruins. A young girl dressed in safari clothes with a matching hat, blond hair, and crystal blue eyes walked up to them.

"Hello! I'm assuming you two are going through the ruins to get to Blackthorn City?" May nodded.

"Yes! How did you know?" The young girl pulled out May and Drew's pictures.

"I saw you guys in the Cherry Grove City poke'mon contest. Are you two dating?" May and Drew started blushing like mad!

"NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The young girl pointed at May and Drew's hands. They didn't realize it, but they were still holding hands. They both looked down and let go in an instant. The young girl giggled.

"Anyway, I'm Alice. I'm here exploring the ruins. It's nice to meet you." May and Drew smiled.

"Nice to meet you too." They were slightly blushing seeing as how they said it at the same time. Alice giggled.

"C'mon. I'll show you guys around." May and Drew fallowed Alice. Alice lead them to a huge camp site. Obviously she wasn't the only one exploring the ruins. There were many people digging, examining fossils, and bringing in what appeared to be treasure from deep inside the ruins. They all looked like professionals. A man wearing the exact same outfit as Alice walked up to them. He had a short black pony tail, and red-ish brown eyes.

"Alice good to see you're back. Who are they?" Alice looked at May and Drew, then back at the man.

"Oh, this is May and Drew. They were in the Cherry Grove City poke'mon contest."

"Ah, I see. Nice to meet you two. My name is Robert. (Not that Robert! LOL)! I'm a well know archeologist. I'm the one in charge of this whole investigation." May raised an eyebrow.

"Investigation?" Robert nodded.

"Yes, we are here investigating these ruins. Most people are afraid to explore this place because of the so called curse. The legend of a princess possessing you is a just an old folk tale. We haven't found any sign of a curse in the whole place so far. So I don't buy it." May clenched her necklace. The idea of the curse still had her scared. May glanced down and clenched her necklace tighter. Drew noticed May was feeling uneasy. He reached out and grabbed her hand. May looked at him and smiled. Alice turned her attention to May and Drew.

"You know there's a faster way to get to Blackthorn City. All you have to do is go around the ruins and get through the forest. I know it sounds like more time but the ruins are confusing. It would take more time because there's a strong chance of getting lost." Drew nodded.

"Ok, we'll go that way." Alice smiled.

"Well, why don't I show you guys around the ruins before you go?" May smiled.

"Ok!!!" May, Drew, and Alice all went inside the ruins. Drew had let out his Roselia. It was walking in between him and May. The ruins were dark inside, so May, Drew, and Alice each had a flashlight. The ruins were dark and cold. It was at a temperature where May and Drew were freezing. Alice was used to it by now. The ruins had strange inscriptions on the walls. Alice and everyone else at the camp were still trying to figure out what it meant. They all ventured deeper into the ruins. I sudden bang was heard through the ruins. May jumped startled.

"EEK!!!! What was that!?" Another bang was heard. This time Roselia was startled. Roselia accidentally launched a magical leaf!! Hundreds of glowing green leafs were launched at the wall!!! The wall blew apart reviling something amazing!!! A whole new opening in the ruins was reviled. Alice was stunned!

"OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Drew's eyes went wide when reality caught up with him.

"I am so sorry!!! Roselia return." Alice shook her head.

"No this is wonderful!!! You've discovered a whole new area in these ruins!!" Alice lead May and Drew into the newly discovered area.

"C'mon! Let's go!!" May and Drew fallowed along. They went through a small tunnel until it opened up to a temple!!! The temple was filled with treasure. There was gold, ruby's, sapphire's and any other treasure you could think of. May noticed there was a throne. She ran over to it.

"Hey guys look at this!! I think it's a throne." Alice got a close look at it.

"It sure is." Drew thought for a moment. He then realized who's throne it was.

"This must be princess Zorea's throne." Alice's eyes went wide.

"Oh my gosh!! You're right!! This has to be her throne." May tried to sit down in it, but Alice stopped her.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? You can't sit in it!!! It could fall to pieces!" May realized she was right.

"I'm sorry!"

"It's ok. C'mon we have to tell Robert about this!!!" Alice and Drew started to leave, but May stayed behind for a moment. As soon as they were out of sight she sat in the throne.

"HEY MAY C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Alice knew May could barely hear her unless she yelled.

"COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" May sat up quickly. As soon as she sat up she heard a creepy noise. All of a sudden there was a tiny green cloud floating by her. May just stood there scared. All of sudden the green cloud went up her nose. Her eyes flashed green, then went back to normal. May ran after Drew and Alice. After a moment she caught up to them. Drew was glad to see her.

"There you are!" May said nothing. Drew was feeling a tad suspicious, but this was May. If something was wrong she would tell him. What Drew didn't know was that May wasn't the one who he was talking to.

"Hello!?!?!?!?" May yelled!! She was surrounded by darkness. "HELLO!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!?!?!?" She was still trying. She was scared and frustrated at the same time. Suddenly a screen opened in front of her. She could see as if she was walking next to Drew and Alice.

"Hey Drew!!!!! Drew!?!?! DREW!!!!!!!!!!!!! Drew can you hear me!?!?!?" Drew didn't hear a thing. Drew didn't even see May where she was!! Drew, Alice and "May" all got out of the ruins and walked up to Robert. Alice told Robert what they had discovered. Drew was still worried about May not speaking the whole time. He put his hand on her shoulder.

"May are you ok?" May grabbed Drew's arm and shoved him away! Drew was shocked!

"May's what is wrong with you!?"

"I am not May." She said in a deeper tone then normal. Alice saw what was going on.

"May what's wrong?"

"I told you. I am not May." Alice's eyes widened.

"Then who are you?"

"I am princess Zorea." Alice and Drew's mouths fell open. Drew was praying he dreaming or SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"What!? How can you be princess Zorea?"

"I put a curse on the ruins. Your May disturbed my rest. I have possessed her body. I died at a young age so I vowed that I would live my life. Now that I've taken over her body you'll never see her again. I will be in her body until the day she dies." (DUN DUH, DUH!!!!!!!!!! Commercial break. LOL)!

"You can't do that! I want May back now!!"

"HA!!!!! Not a chance!!"

"Where is May anyway?"

"She can see you, but you can't see her. I probably shouldn't have said that." All of sudden Drew's cell phone started ringing. Drew answered it without looking at who it was.

"WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" It was Diamond.

"What's up with you?" Drew's eyes widened. He really didn't want to get on Diamond's bad side.

"Sorry I'm just kind of dealing with something right now."

"What is it?"

"May's possessed!!!!!!"

"I'm on my way." Diamond hung up the phone. Drew hung up.

"How is she gonna, OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Drew got startled when Diamond walked up behind him and tapped his shoulder. Diamond raised an eyebrow.

"What?"

"How did you get here so fast!?"

"I caught a Kerlia."

"Oh." Diamond saw "May".

"May are you ok?" Zorea rolled her eyes.

"For the third time, I am not May. I am princess Zorea." Diamond eyes went wide. She knew about the legend. Heck she knew about a lot of things!

"Oh crap. Drew over here." Diamond dragged Drew away from everyone.

"Ok Drew. This is gonna freak you out, but…….only true love will break the curse!" Drew couldn't believe what was happening.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Drew only you can get May back."

"How I'm a supposed to do that!?!?!? She doesn't love me!"

"You love her!" Drew blushed at this comment.

"What!?"

"Drew she does love you and you love her!!"

"How would you know she loves me, and how do you know I love her!?!?"

"1. I talked with May and it's obvious, 2. Drew we've been friends for years, and 3. Really you just admitted it. So…get your butt over there before I kick it!" Drew grumbled and walked up to Zorea. Zorea laughed.

"Ha! It doesn't matter what you do. You'll never see May again." Zorea was suddenly surrounded by darkness. She vanished into thin air!!! Everyone was shocked!! Robert had everyone at the camp go inside the ruins. Robert turned to Drew, Alice, and Diamond.

"Don't worry guys everyone will be searching for May. In the mean time why don't you guys go to the poke'mon center down the road. We'll take care of things here." Drew shook his head.

"No way. I'm going to help find May." Robert shook his head.

"Sorry son, but this is for professionals. Even Alice can't be involved in this." Alice's mouth fell open.

"WHAT!?!?!?!?! But you said…" Robert cut her off.

"I said you could help, but this is far too dangerous." Robert went into the ruins, leaving Drew, Diamond, and Alice standing there alone. Drew, Diamond, and Alice went to the poke'mon center down the road. They had no choice. Once they reached the center Alice and Diamond were just talking. Drew however was looking up information about the Ruins of Alph online. He also found something that had him worried. He turned to Alice.

"Hey Alice, Robert said he was a well known archeologist right?" Alice nodded.

"Yes, that's what he said." Drew turned to the computer, then back to Alice.

"I can't find him anywhere online, and it says here that only professionals are even aloud near these ruins. That's why everyone goes around the mountain to get to Blackthorn City." Alice thought for a moment.

"Well he said he was well known, and I was just exploring the ruins on my own when he asked for my help." Drew read another part of the information describing the ruins. He found something that was a bad sign.

"That's weird. It says here as of a few months ago, the ruins were closed to the public." Drew reached inside his bag and pulled out the pamphlet about the ruins. He realized that the pamphlet was a few years old! Diamond was thinking. She then realized something important.

"Wait if it's not open to the public…..then how would Robert get permission to explore the place?" Alice realized that she might have been helping someone she shouldn't have.

"Who says he did have permission." Drew shut down the computer and grabbed his bag.

"We don't know anything about his guy, and he's the one looking for May, AKA princess Zorea. We need to go down there whether he likes it or not!!!!!" Alice and Diamond nodded in agreement. Drew, Diamond, and Alice all went to back the Ruins of Alph. They went inside and started to look for May.

With May…

"Hello!?!!? Anyone there!?!?!?" May was still surrounded by darkness. Dark clouds and dark purple sky. She couldn't see hardly anything. Zorea on the other hand, was being given the royal treatment. Hundreds of Unknown were catering to her every whim. Zorea was sitting in her throne, while the Unknown were getting her whatever she wanted. She had some of them head to the poke'mon center. A few Unknown went to the poke'mon center. They approached Nurse Joy. Nurse Joy couldn't believe her eyes.

"Are those poke'mon Unknown!?" Suddenly the Unknown's eyes lit up green. Nurse Joy's eyes lit up green as well!!! She uncontrollably headed to the ruins!!! The Unknown did this to some of the people at the center too!!! They all went the ruins and get Zorea whatever she wanted!! They were under a hypnotic spell. They were all in the same position as May. Each individually surround by darkness. Not knowing where they were, or what was happening.

With Drew, Diamond, and Alice…

Drew thinking about what Diamond had said, "Only love will break the curse." He did love May, but he didn't know if she loved him back. Diamond said she did, but he knew Diamond was trying to set them up. He was worried about May. He didn't where she was or what was happening to her. Eventually Drew, Diamond, and Alice found Robert. They all walked up to him. They saw that he and everyone else were practically tearing apart the ruins!!! Alice was appalled.

"Hey what do you think you're doing!? These ruins are Johto landmark!!" Robert laughed.

"And I'm supposed to care? The only reason I'm here is to get every piece of treasure in this place." Drew stepped forward.

"You said you were here exploring!!!!"

"And you kids were a big help. Discovering this temple inside these ruins is gonna make me rich. I knew the curse would get one of you. And while you were busy with that, I would come in here and get the treasure." Drew was getting really mad now.

"You knew the whole time!?!?!? Now because of you I could loose May forever!!!!!!!"

"What do you take me for an idiot?" Diamond was ready to kill Robert now!

"OK THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Drew grabbed her to stop her! (Like how Brock kept Dawn from killing Paul).

"Help me!!!! I can't hold her!!!" Alice grabbed on to Diamond too. Diamond kept yelling.

"I AM GONNA KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE THE BIGGEST………………" Drew covered her mouth before she said anything she was going to regret. Alice helped hold her back. Robert laughed. Eventually Diamond got out of Drew and Alice's grasp.

"Look buddy!! Leave these ruins alone and help us find May or so help me I will…" Robert cut her off.

"You'll what?" Diamond turned to Drew. He nodded yes. Diamond tackled Robert to the ground!!! Robert screamed like a girl!

"I SURRENDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'LL HELP YOU FIND THE GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP KILLING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Diamond stopped beating the crap out of him and stood up.

"Well it's about time. And if you try and trick us in any way, I….will….DESTROY YOU!!!!!!!!!!!" Robert guarded his face with is hands.

"OK, OK!!!!!!!!! I won't do anything sneaky!! Here let's try this way." Robert lead Drew, Diamond, and Alice deeper into the ruins. After a while they found Zorea. They were all in complete shock!!! They saw everyone tending to her! Diamond walked up to Nurse Joy.

"Nurse Joy what do you think you're doing!?!?!?" Zorea snapped her fingers. An Unknown approached Diamond. Its eyes lit up green. Diamond eyes lit up green as well!!! She was under the spell!!!! Diamond walked up to Zorea. She just stood there. Drew's eyes went wide.

"Diamond what are you doing!?" Zorea laughed.

"She can't hear you." Drew was getting really mad. He and Alice didn't see it, but Robert was gone!! He left when no one was watching. Drew walked up to Zorea.

"May wake up!!!" Drew didn't know how, but he HAD to get May back! Zorea laughed.

"Ha!!! I doesn't matter how much you call for her."

With May…

May was starting to cry. She was terrified!! Suddenly a screen opened in front of her. She saw Drew. Drew was still trying.

"May, May if you can hear me. You have to fight it!! I can't loose you!!" May couldn't believe it!! Drew knew she was there! May could see what Zorea was seeing. Zorea snapped her fingers. Diamond turned and walked towards Drew. Drew stared backing up.

"Diamond….it's me." Diamond was still under the spell. She started to attack Drew!! Drew managed to fight back pretty well. Diamond was awfully strong though! And being under the spell made her even stronger. May saw them fighting!!! Drew still tried to wake May up while fighting for his life!

"May!! WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't fight her much longer!!" Zorea was really getting May mad. May was still watching Drew and Diamond fight. She was hoping Diamond would realize what she doing. Eventually Diamond ended up punching Drew's face and his stomach!!!! May couldn't believe this. Now she was really mad.

"Hypnotizing my friend, AND having her hurt Drew. THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!! LET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Zorea's eye started to glow green again. She was holding her head trying to keep May from getting out.

"AHHH!!!!! ARG!! NO!!!! YOU WON'T GET OUT!!!!" Alice realized what was happening with May!

"Drew it's working!! Keep going." Drew stood up and walked closer to May. He tried to get close but Diamond stepped in front of him.

"May!! May!!!! C'mon I know you can fight it!!!" Drew was trying to wake May without getting to close, or else Diamond would start fighting him again. Suddenly the whole place started shaking!!! Rocks were falling, and the temple was falling apart!! Alice realized what happened.

"Robert probably triggered something!!! Considering he's not here. I would think that!! We have to get out of here." Drew looked at Alice, then back at May who was still fighting with Zorea.

"We can't leave May's still fighting! May c'mon!!!! You have to wake up before it's too late!!!"

"ARG!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" May and Zorea screamed at the top of their lungs!!! A green fog came out May's mouth. The fog disappeared into thin air. May fell to the ground! Drew ran over to her.

"May is that you?" May looked at him and nodded. Drew smiled.

"I'm so glad you're ok." Alice looked around. Everyone there was waking up. Diamond woke up and ran over to May and Drew.

"Are you guys ok?" May nodded. Drew helped her up. Diamond noticed a bit of blood dripping from Drew's mouth.

"Oh my gosh Drew what happened?"

"Well…uh…." Drew really didn't want to tell Diamond.

"What?"

"You were under a type of spell, and you kind of started to fight me." Diamond's eyes went wide.

"OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so sorry!" Drew smiled.

"It's ok. We've got to get out of here." Everyone managed to make it out of the ruins unharmed. Nurse Joy helped explain to everyone what had happened. No one knew what happened to Robert and everyone that was helping him. May was glad to be back. She turned to Drew.

"Drew thank you." Drew raised an eyebrow.

"For what?"

"For saving me." May hugged Drew as tight as she could. Drew felt a drop of water drip on to his jacket.

"May don't cry."

"Hey I was possessed! I can be scared!" May started to cry a little more.

"I was scared too." May eye's softened.

"You were?"

"I was afraid I lost you."

"Tell me about it! I was scared I'd never see you again!!!" May burst into more tears. Drew tried to comfort her. Diamond looked at them. She put her hand over her heart. She loved seeing them together. An idea struck her. She was glad they were traveling together. They were finally alone. She was awfully good at matchmaker. So she thought that if she just stayed in the region that would be enough. Diamond walked up to them.

"Hey guys?" Drew turned to Diamond along with May.

"Yeah."

"I wanted to tell you that, I've decided to stay in this region." May smiled.

"Really!?" Diamond nodded.

"Yeah! I'm not having much luck in Sinnoh, so I thought I would have better luck here." May though of an idea.

"Hey why don't you head with us to Blackthorn City? That way we could all enter the contest!!"

"Are you sure?" Drew shrugged.

"Hey it's fine with me." Diamond nodded in agreement.

"Ok. Sounds like fun! Plus if Jerkly shows up I can beat the crap out of him. You know I do it so much it's becoming a hobby." May and Drew started laughing along with Diamond. So with that, May, Drew, and Diamond all headed to the Blackthorn City. May was happy to have Diamond with her and Drew. Diamond was a lot fun to hang out with. They made a quick stop at the poke'mon center, and then headed towards the mountain. They were going to have to go over the mountain to get to Blackthorn City. If they could go through the Ruins of Alph it would be a short cut, but after what had happened, not a chance. They had reached a forest that they had to go through before they reached the mountain. The forest was very large. It was very easy to get lost. May, Drew, and Diamond got lost for a while, and eventually stopped for a break. May was worried.

"Guys how are we gonna find our way out of this forest?" Diamond thought for a moment. She looked at the map. They needed to head north in order to get out of the forest and up to the mountain. It was starting to get dark outside. She thought of an idea.

"Well guys, would it be ok if we traveled through the night a little?" Drew raised an eyebrow.

"Why?"

"Because if we wait until night I can use the north star to find our way out of this forest!" May's mouth fell open.

"You can do that!?" Diamond nodded.

"Yep!!!"

"Is there anything you can't do?"

"……Mime." May and Diamond started laughing. Eventually night came. Diamond figured out witch way to go to get out of the forest. After a while she, May, and Drew all made it out of the forest. They stopped and set up camp. May gathered rocks so they could start a fire.

"Hey who's gonna get fire wood?" May asked. Diamond smiled.

"I'll go!" May nodded.

"Ok." Diamond headed into the woods near the mountain. She smirked at the fact she was the one getting the fire wood.

"Perfect!! Now they're alone. Hopefully I can get them together before I leave." Diamond got back with the fire wood to see an adorable sight. It was late at night so May and Drew ended up falling asleep next each other. In his sleep, Drew was holding May close to him. She was facing away from him, so he had his arms just above her stomach. Diamond pulled out her cell phone. She took a picture of May and Drew. She quietly squealed. She got in her sleeping bag and went to sleep herself. Morning came. Drew woke up finding May had her face buried in his chest. He madly blushed at this. Diamond woke up and saw them. She stood up and crept up to them. She took out her cell phone, but just when she was about to take a picture Drew turned and looked at her. This startled her and she juggled her cell phone before snatching it and hiding it behind her back. Drew glared at her pretty much knowing she already had a picture. More likely he and May had been that way all night. Diamond ran off secretly spying on them. May gently woke up finding herself right next to Drew. She blushed and quickly sat up.

"Sorry!!!" May was blushing more than before. Drew sat up and blushed a bit as well.

"It's ok." May awkwardly smiled. So did Drew. Diamond walked up to them.

"Hey guys. Sleep well?" Diamond smirked. May and Drew blushed at this. Diamond giggled.

"C'mon guys let's get going." Diamond started packing her things. May and Drew did the same. They all headed up the mountain. It was going to take a while. May was worried they wouldn't get to Blackthorn City in time for the contest. She turned to Drew.

"Drew when is the contest?"

"Not for a couple weeks." May sighed.

"Phew. Thank God." May, Drew, and Diamond continued to travel towards Blackthorn City. They were one day away from reaching the city. It was early in the morning. May, Drew, and Diamond were still asleep. May and Drew faintly woke up when they heard a noise. May was still half asleep.

"Ug. What was that?" May still had her eyes closed. Drew sat up.

"I don't know." May turned over and grumbled.

"You go check, you're the boy." Drew got up and walked towards the sound. There was a rustling in the bushes. Diamond woke up this time. She rubbed her eyes and saw what was going on.

"Drew what are you doing?"

"I heard something." Diamond was suspicious. She took out a pair of sunglasses. She put the on and pushed a small hardly visible button. She could now see through the bushes. Having a dad that made spy gear came in handy. Her eyes went wide when she saw through the bushes.

"DREW BACK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Diamond warned him!! Suddenly a bullet seed attack nearly hit Drew! Diamond got up and ran towards who did it. She threw her poke'ball!

"Monferno Overheat!" Diamond's fire monkey poke'mon came out of its ball and lunched a powerful fire attack near the bushes. A Cacturne flew out showing it had been hit. Diamond clenched her teeth.

"Dang it I was aiming for Jerkly." Harley stood up and scowled at Diamond.

"Did you have to be here!?" Diamond ran and tackled Harley to the ground!! She started shouting!!

"I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T YOU EVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SWEAR YOU ARE THE BIGGEST -beep- -beep- -beep- -beep-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Harley ran off before Diamond could really kill him. Diamond was breathing heavily. She was really mad. Drew sighed.

"Hey thanks Diamond." Diamond smiled.

"No problem. I actually have fun beating the crap out of him." May started to wake up but she still had her eyes closed.

"Hey guys what happened?" Diamond smiled awkwardly.

"*Sweat drop* Well uh….Drew almost got hit with a bullet seed attack." May practically leaped out of her sleeping bag.

"WAS IT HARLEY WHO DID IT!?!?!?!? IS DREW OK!?!?!?!?!?" May saw Diamond and Drew were just fine.

"*Sweat drop* I guess that answers my question. It was Harley and you got to him right Diamond?" Diamond smiled.

"Oh yeah!" May, Drew, and Diamond packed their things and continued to Blackthorn City. It was late at night when they finally arrived. They got a room at the poke'mon center. Diamond woke up in the middle of the night. She looked across from herself to see Drew, and above her was May. She was thinking about how she could get them together. They truly did love each other. They just didn't know it. She wished she could tell them but, it would be better if they told each other. She was still thinking about what Celebi had told her. That she had to get them together. That's why she was trying so hard. She knew that there was something wrong. Often her dreams would tell her the future. She was thinking about the dream she had back at the Wallace Cup. That's what had her very worried. She would never forgive herself if something happened to May and Drew. She eventually fell back asleep. The next morning came. May, Drew, and Diamond got ready and signed up for the contest. They each went on their own to train. After a while Diamond looked for Drew. Eventually she found him.

"Hey Drew!!!" Drew turned to Diamond.

"Hey, Diamond, what's up?" Diamond's face turned serious.

"I need to ask you something." Drew was worried now. Diamond rarely got serious that way.

"What is it?"

"I need to know, how do you feel about May?" Drew rolled his eyes.

"Why do you keep asking that?"

"Because so far you haven't given me an answer, and I really need to know."

"Ok." Drew sat down by a tree. Diamond did the same. Drew sighed, nervous to tell Diamond.

"The truth is, I started liking her after her first contest. And I've been totally in love with her ever since we talked while watching the sunset. Is that what you wanna hear?" Diamond smiled.

"Yep! You really should tell her."

"I can't."

"Why?"

"'Cause it's not easy telling a girl I love you!"

"I know."

"Don't tell her or I'll punch you in the neck!" Diamond grabbed Drew by the caller.

"Oh really?"

"Just don't tell her ok?" Diamond let go and smiled.

"Ok." Diamond got up and left to go find May. She found May training by a lake.

"Yo, May!!" May turned and smiled.

"Hi Diamond! Whatch'a doi'n?"

"I have a question for you?"

"What?"

"How do you truly feel about Drew?"

"*Sigh* You promise you won't tell him?" Diamond nodded.

"I promise." May sat down just where the water could brush up against her feet. Diamond sat down next to her. May swallowed and turned to Diamond.

"The truth is, I've been totally in love with him ever since he walked away on the beach back at my first Grand Festival." Diamond smiled.

"Really?" May nodded.

"Yeah. But I highly doubt he loves me back."

"You don't know that! Maybe he does. I think so."

"Thanks Diamond. You're a great friend." May hugged Diamond. Diamond got up and went back to her training. She now knew that May and Drew truly did love each other. She just wished they would come out and tell each other. She was trying to think of ways to get them together. She called up Dawn. Dawn answered her cell phone.

"Hey, sis what's up?"

"Nothing much. I'm trying to think of ways to get May and Drew together."

"Sis what's going on? You've never had trouble with matchmaker before."

"Andy and Karen weren't as stubborn as May and Drew are."

"Well what are you gonna do? Get them in a canoe together and call up Sebastian?" Diamond thought of an idea.

"Or, maybe an international pop star that can sing a song at the Blackthorn City poke'mon contest. TTYL sis." Diamond hung up the phone. She went to her room, closed and locked the door, shut the curtains, and got ready to talk to Vivian as Nicole. Nicole found Vivian rehearsing on stage.

"Excuse me? Vivian?" Vivian turned to Nicole.

"Oh, Nicole nice to see you!! I heard you performed at the Wallace cup. You sure helped my younger sister get the crowd pumped up!"

"Nice to see you too!! Speaking of performing, I wanted to ask you something." Vivian raised an eyebrow.

"What is it?"

"I wanted to know if I could perform at the contest."

"Sure! We'd love that!!!"

"Thank you so much!!!"

"Thank you Nicole." Nicole went back to her room, changed her clothes, and was Diamond again.

At the contest…

"The Blackthorn City poke'mon contest is about to take under way!! Now please allow me to introduce you to our panel of three judges! Please see hello to Mr. Contesta." Vivian had the crowd cheering as loud as they could. Contesta took out a microphone.

"Hello everyone! I am very excited to see what these coordinators are made of!" Contesta handed the microphone to Sukizu.

"Yes, and of course, remarkable." Sukizu handed the microphone to Nurse Joy.

"I'm very excited to see the performances and battles! I've preformed checkups on all of these poke'mon. And I think you'll be amazed at the things they can do!" Vivian smiled.

"Thank you judges for helping me get everyone pumped up for this contest! And the winner of this contest will receive this. The Blackthorn City ribbon!" said Vivian showing everyone a beautiful blue ribbon. It was blue the with and gold stripes.

"Now everyone, we have a special guest singing for us before we start everything up! Please help me welcome, pop star Nicole!!" Nicole came out on stage, and took a head set microphone she could put on from Vivian.

"Alright everyone are you ready to rock?"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Everyone in the crowd was scream as loud as they could!

"Ok everyone this song is for two very special friends, who I must say, are gonna do AWESOME in this contest! Make some noise!!!" The crowd again screamed as loud as they could!!! The music started up and Nicole began to sing.

Haaa la, la. Kiss the girl.

Drew's mouth fell open. He knew who Nicole was talking about, and now she was singing that song!

"She wouldn't." Drew was starting to blush.

There you see her, sitting there across the way. She don't got a lot to say, but there's something about her.

And you don't know why, but you're dying to try, you wanna kiss the girl. Yes, you want her.

Look at her you know you do. It's possible she wants it too, there's one way to ask her.

It don't take a word, not a single word. Go on and kiss the girl. Sha la, la, la, la, la. My oh my!

Looks like the boys too shy, ain't gonna kiss the girl.

Sha la, la, la, la, la. Ain't that sad? It's such a shame too bad. You're gonna miss the girl.

Drew slapped his forehead when Nicole sang that part.

"Don't remind me."

Go on and kiss the girl. Now's your moment. You're floating in a blue lagoon. Boy you better do it soon.

No time will be better. She don't say a word, and she won't say a word until you kiss the girl

The crowd went insane!!! Nicole smiled at the crowds response to her song.

"Thank you everyone!! Now let's get this party started!!" Nicole went back stage, went into the dressing room, and got completely ready for the contest. She came out to the waiting room. Drew spotted her. She tried to look away, but Drew walked up to.

"Diamond Taylor Summers!!!!" Diamond tried to act like she didn't do anything.

"So, great song by Nicole huh?"

"I am so gonna get you for that!"

"Hey you're the one who told me…" Diamond looked around to make sure May wasn't listening. That way Drew would get to the point where he didn't speak to her for a month. Been there done that.

"That you've been in love with her ever since you watched the sunset with her! Just tell her for crime out loud!!"

"I will when I'm ready!"

"Well make it quick. She's coming over here. Oh, and if you wanna hide anything you might wanna wipe the blush off your face, ok?"

"Diamond!!!!" May walked up to Drew.

"What was that about?" Drew turned to May.

"Nothing."

"Ok. She said two special friends. Did she mean us?"

"Well…uh…"

"Nah. I mean it's not like were dating or anything I mean. C'mon."

"Yeah. Right. Thank you Arceus!" Drew thought the last part to himself.

"Well we're gonna go on soon." Drew nodded.

"Yeah."

So, the Blackthorn City poke'mon contest is about to begin! Diamond feels like playing a little matchmaker. Will May and Drew finally admit their feelings to each other? Stay tuned.
