Chapter 10
The Return
Three days after Ash and Misty had left Jade at the hospital and after they had met Tracey they decided to call and check up on Jade. Ash who was at the phone sighed in relief as he heard that Jade had finally woken up and that she was able to identify what had poisoned her.
"We should giver her a few more days before we release her however. She needs to recover from the shock she has suffered. Actually we were surprised a day after you left she got worse and thought we were going to loose her, in fact we almost did." Jade's doctor explained to Ash, Misty and Tracey.
The doctor handed the phone over to Jade who talked to Ash for a while, Misty longer and even longer to Tracey because this is the first time that she would meet him. She looked a lot better than when Ash and Misty had found her the first time. Jade wasn't so pale anymore and she looked like she was in better shape, but her eyes however they were dull and rather somber for some reason. Misty knew why but Ash still could not figure it out so she just didn't bother explaining it.

One week later Jade was finally released and she was immediately flown over to the island that Ash, Misty and Tracy were on. Not by plane but by pokemon, Jade had flown over on Sky Flyer. Sky Flyer, once a Pidgey was now a strong and brave Pidgeot who loved his master dearly and would do anything for her.
Once Jade had landed Ash and Misty jumped out of joy and shock, for they had no idea that she had left the hospital only a few hours earlier and was coming to join them on their journey again.
"Jade, it's great to see you."
"I'm glad you're back, Ash can be such a pain without you around."
"Hey."
Jade smiled broadly. She had missed Ash and Misty while she was stuck in the hospital going though tests to see if she was all right. She returned Sky Flyer and then turned to Ash and Misty.
"I missed you guys too. And you must be Tracey. It is a pleasure meeting you in person. So what have y'all been up to?" Jade said
"Not much." Misty replied
"Hey did you call mom and tell her that you were going to leave the hospital?" Ash asked
"Yes, she was so happy that I was ok." Jade replied smiling at her cousin lovingly.
Tracey who was sitting against a tree when Jade had flown up was drawing something, so Jade decided not to bother him. A gust of wind blew by and Jade's hair rose up into the air for a few moments while she closed her eyes and listened to the wind. She opened her eyes and saw that they had been eating lunch when she had flown up to surprise them.
"I've just created another masterpiece!" Tracey shouted jumping up suddenly and startling Jade.
Misty walked over to him and looked over his shoulder at the picture and then she gasped,
"Wow! Tracey this is beautiful. You have really captured the beauty in this simple little drawing."
Ash walked over, looked at the picture and quickly agreed with Misty. Jade being curious at what they were looking at walked over. Tracey turned his notepad over and held it up so that Jade could see the picture.
The picture was of Jade; it was of that moment when the wind had blown her hair up and when she had closed her eyes. It looked like a black and white photograph of that exact moment when she had closed her eyes.
Jade smiled, she liked the picture and she thought that Tracey was amazing. He was the best artist that she had ever seen. She was glad to have another friend.
"By the way it is a pleasure to meet you two." Tracey said.

Melody finished playing the last notes of the song and she fell to her knees clutching her flute to her chest.
Ash and Jade turned to the sound of Mrs. Ketchum calling them. Ash got scolded for risking his life the way he did, but because Jade did not risk her life and she only helped him as best she could she did not get scolded.
"Jade?"
Jade turned around when she heard someone call her and standing right there was...Gary. Jade stood there for a moment then she turned around and ran off away from Gary.
Gary gave chase and then grabbed her hand before she got to far away.
"What do you want?" Jade snapped at him.
"For you to come back with me and train with me."
Everyone was now watching and the TV reporters were even filming what was going on, but Jade and Gary seemed to not have noticed.
"Why so you can ignore me and show off for those cheerleaders?" Jade said with tears in her eyes.
"Jade you were right. I should have paid more attention to you than them." Gary said softly.
"It doesn't matter. I hate them and you being you, you are never going to pay more attention to them as long as they are around." Jade said
"Jade, I sent the cheerleaders home. I'm sorry. I can't live unless you are there with me. You are my best friend and you mean the world to me. Please come train with me again."
Jade looked down for a moment, then she smiled and nodded her head. She and Gary then embraced each other for a few moments. Tracey thought that this was a picture perfect moment so he drew a picture of it which he later gave to Jade.
"Oh, Gary I missed you so much. I can't stay mad at you." Jade said
When they released each other Tracey walked up and put a piece of paper in Gary's hands then muttered,
"I think you might like this."
Gary looked at the paper and smiled, it was the first picture of Jade that Tracey had drawn, the one with the wind blowing her hair dramatically, then he turned back to Jade and said,
"Did you know that two days after you left I came home and once there I promised myself that I would not leave until you came back and we could go together? So then I sent the cheerleaders home. Once I had heard that you had been poisoned I prayed every minute that you would be ok. I just wanted to spend one more day with you even if it was our last, that is why I came."
A tear rolled down Jade's cheek as she heard Gary tell his story she wiped it away but another one would just roll down the other cheek. Gary wiped this tear off of her cheek ever so gently then Jade whispered,
"I didn't know you cared so much about me."
She and Gary then embraced again and this time after a few moments when Jade had stopped crying they headed home so that they could start a new journey...together.
