Brock's Attempt to get a Girl

"We can explain!" Ash stuttered as he took note of Brock's expression. Unfortunately for him, the man has already locked himself out of the outside world as has now turned against them, preferring to curl into a ball in one corner and sulk.

"Brock!" Misty got up and dressed in a hurry. Ash did the same, slipping on his pants (His shirt and polo was torn off remember?)

"Brock?" Misty said again, this time in a more hushed tone as she approached the man sucking his thumb. She crouched down and tapped the man's back.

"Brock, we were just warming each other up! There's no harm in that" Ash crouched beside misty trying to conceal what just happened.

"He's right Brock. The reason why we were naked was because me and ash were soaking wet so we kinda had to be naked" 'Greatest lie of the century!' a voice inside misty's head screamed. The girl simply pushed it back.

Brock looked at both of them, his thumb still inside his mouth. He looked at misty then, his eyes fell upon ash's bare upper body. he is obviously inquiring why the boy is still half naked.

"Well, you see…umm…you see…we, kinda had some troubles getting my shirt off so we kinda have to cut it off" 'LIAR!' this time, the voice nagged on ash's head.

Brock is still looking at them, obviously not believing a word their saying. He obviously wants the truth.

"Brock come on, stop sulking, we have a long journey ahead of us" Ash said, now in a somewhat pleading tone. The man simply turned away. It was a clear answer—NO—both ash and misty sighed. They can't think of anymore good excuses. They were caught red handed. In fact, if Brock hadn't showed up, then they'll end up bare naked on one tent.

"Alright…" Misty sighed as she raised her hands up in the air "…we give up, we'll tell you the truth"

Ash looked at misty, a look of disbelief painted across his face. Misty simply mouthed to him "let's just get this over with"

Brock looked at them, expecting the answer.

"Ash, you tell him" Misty commanded

"Why me?"

"Because, Ash Ketchum, in case you have forgotten, you lost our bet and now you're my personal slave for TWO WEEKS!!" Misty exclaimed.

The pokemons, Pikachu and togepi, have come down to see what's going on. The yellow rodent immediately took note of his master's expression—grave.

"Oh alright…" ash turned to Brock "…Brock, me and misty are having a….uh….umm…we're having a….uh…ummm…." 'damn it, come on ash, just say it!' the boy thought to himself "….mistyandIarehavingarelationshipwitheachother!" there, he finally said. In a hurry, yes, but at least he said it.

"I KNEW IT!!!" Brock yelled "I KNEW IT. YOU TWO ARE HAVING AN AFFAIR AND ARE GOING TO LEAVE ME ALONE!!!"

"No we won't, Brock. Where did you even get that?" misty said, finally relieved that the Brock issue is over.

"From this magazine" Brock held up a magazine which read 'how to get a girl using simple charms'

"And tell me, how many times have that magazine given you a girl?" misty crossed her arms across her chest.

"Umm…" Brock contemplated. Its true, none of the techniques mentioned in the magazine has ever worked on any girl.

"Well?" Misty's hands are now on her waist.

"That's only because you drag me out of every girl I hit on!" Brock protested

"Okay then…" a sly smile crawled its way up misty's face "…we'll go to town and you charm every girl you see while me and ash watch you"

"Why should I watch too if I can just eat at some restaurant?!" ash protested.

"BECAUSE I OWN YOU ASH KETCHUM!!!" Misty yelled.

"Oh yeah" ash lowered his head.

"Pikachu" the rodent could only look at his master in pity.

"Deal!" Brock said as he packed up and started to leave.


"Hi miss, do you have a band aid" Brock approached a lady with red flowing hair

"Why?" the girl asked, very perplexed at the concept of a stranger asking for a band aid.

"Because I just tripped falling for you"

"Wait, please!" Brock exclaimed at the lady now walking away with 'hmph'

Misty sighed as she watched from a distance while Brock vainly continued on trying to attract girls. If he wasn't so vain and if he would use some good pick up lines, not the ones that you'd hear from the 1980's, then maybe he'll get a girlfriend.

"Where is it?" a voice snapped misty out of her trance. She looked behind her only to see ash rummaging through his backpack.

"What are you looking for?" she inquired.

"My shirt…" the boy didn't even bother to look behind him "…I know I brought a spare black shirt for this journey"

"Didn't you use it to try and catch a Dratini?"

Ash's head shot up as he remembered quite clearly what happened.

Flashback

"Oh boy, a dratini!" ash exclaimed as he spotted the rare pokemon sitting by the lake.

"Ash, we left our pokemon at the center remember, how can you possibly capture that?" misty gave him a disapproving look.

"Don't worry misty, I know how." Ash said, taking off his black shirt "…I saw this on a documentary once" with that, the boy threw the black shirt over the dratini's head and lounged at it.

"I GOT IT!" he yelled.

"Uh, ash" misty nervously pointed at something behind the boy. The said trainer looked behind his only to see a very furious mother dragonite staring at him.

Without a second thought, ash and misty ran away for dear life, leaving behind the black shirt

End of flashback

"Ahhh" ash scratched his head in frustration "Now I have to walk half naked along the streets"

"Can't you just button your polo?" misty said, taking a sip of her smoothy.

"This thing doesn't have any buttons misty, it was meant to be open" ash took a seat beside the orange haired girl and rested his forearms by the table.

"Well, you'll just have to walk around with an open polo shirt then"

"What?" ash whined. Before misty could retort, however, Brock approached them with a grim expression on his face.

"I take it the pick up lines didn't work?" misty smirked at the man. Brock simply shook his head.

"Don't worry Brock, you can't expect a girl to like you at first sight, do you?" ash took a sip at his smoothy while giving Pikachu some ketchup he always stores in the backpack. Contrary to popular belief, Pikachu is ash's rival for food and unless he doesn't give the rat pokemon some ketchup, then it'll shock him and steal his food. He learned that the hard way.

"Yeah, I mean, do you actually expect someone to walk up to you and say 'are you taken?'"

Before Brock could make a comment on misty's statement, a girl with dark and knee length hair approached them.

"Excuse me, is this seat taken?" she asked, pointing on the seat beside ash.

"No of course not" Brock answered immediately, fixing his looks, ready to impress the beauty.

"I see…" then, her hand landed on ash's exposed chest and looked at the boy with a sly smile "…how about you, are you taken?"

To be continued

Sorry for the long update. And sorry for all Brock fans out there. I know I was bad for torturing him and I know you feel sad for him, but please, do forgive me. If you like, I can make Brock happy on the next chapter.

Anyway, Please review.
