Note: -is air guitaring to Avril Lavigne- Oh! OH! You're here! Well, then, read the tenth chapter! Here you go! -farts out tenth chapter- Yeah, ignore the smell. It'll go away after a while.

I don't own Pokemon. Just my farting rendition of the National Anthem. With belching accompaniment. ACK! Now I'm choking on Triscuits! -coughing wildly-

Chapter Ten

Ash stirred from his deep sleep to find himself bound tightly. "Oww!" He complained after trying to move and the sting of bandage against burn shocked through his system.

Calm down, Ash, and you'll be okay.

"Mewtwo? God, what happened? I feel like Charizard sneezed on me."

Well, he's being sarcastic, I guess that means he's alright.

"Would you effing answer me? What the hell happened?" Ash asked angrily, attempting to sit up.

"Honey, don't you remember? The fair ride blew up." Delia answered quietly, pushing her son gently back down. Ash winced and hissed as his burnt flesh pressed more against the bandage.

"Yeah..." Ash lied. After getting knocked to the ground, he'd lost his memory of that day, and thankfully that day only.

Do you need anything, Ash?

"An explanation."

"Oh, honey, can't you remember? A Machoke clone got loose and ruined the fair. And you got hurt. It was all over the news, baby." Delia pet her son's head gently.

"Would'ja quit petting my head, I'm not five anymore!" Ash exclaimed, swatting his mother's hand away a little more firmly than he meant to. Delia slunk back.

I guess he needs his Ash time.

"Well, we'll be in the other room if you need us."

Ash didn't answer, instead turned on his side and ignored them.

"Poor Ash. I don't think he remembers anything." Delia commented later.

I wonder if he'll ever remember.

"I don't know. I really don't know."

It was another week until Ash's back was healed enough for him to move around. He was helping with dinner when something strange caught his attention. His mother was out shopping.

"What was that sound?"

End of Chapter Ten

I'm sorry it was so short, but I had another chapter all ready, before I finished this one and in order, this chapter was supposed to go first. I confuzzled myself into a half-coma and finished this chapter up quick so the better chapters could come along.
