HotXbun: I am so sorry that it has been over two months since I last updated! I was working on other stories!
Ten chapters! Double digits! A woo woo!
This will be the last chapter based on 'A Ruin with a View.'
Guest: I'll try to update as frequently as possible. But please remember I have MANY ongoing stories at the moment.
PS: Please read the AN bellow.
Chapter 10 The Ruins
Ash's POV
I ended up getting trapped in a room with May and Nurse Joy!
I kept knocking myself into the door, but it wouldn't budge!
"I won't budge", I revealed.
I then heard something.
I turned around and saw Nurse Joy flip a switch.
"There", she said. "I turned on the secondary generator. Hopefully that will help the hurt Pokémon until we can sort this out."
"We need to get out of here", I stated.
Suddenly...I felt Pikachu tug at my pant's leg.
"What is it buddy", I asked as I kneeled down besides him.
Pikachu then pointed his head at something.
It was a vent!
"Yes", I said happily.
I then climbed onto some boxes and with a bit of effort...was able to pry the vent open!
"Got it", I said before I looked at the ladies. "I'm gonna go and unlock the door from the outside!"
"Be careful."
Five Minutes Later
I dropped into the room outside the one Nurse Joy and May were trapped in!
I opened it and they ran out!
May then hugged me...causing my heart rate to speed up! [My Journey With You Extra: Can't you wait until the situation is done before you pull at my heart strings?!]
"You rule", she stated.
I then broke the hug and looked at Nurse Joy.
"I'm going to go turn on the power", she revealed.
"I'm going to go find Professor Alden", I revealed.
"I'm coming with you."
One Hour Later
We found Professor Alden in the ruins.
"Professor Alden", I yelled before running up to said person. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine", Professor Alden replied.
"Where are those people", May asked.
"Gone. They took pictures of some cave paintings and left by helicopter."
"Dang it", I yelled. "They won't get away with this!"
May then shushed me.
"You probably shouldn't yell when we're in a cave", she whisper shouted.
"Sorry", I apologized sheepishly.
Suddenly, I heard something.
I turned around...and saw...Team Rocket! [My Journey With You Extra: Not again! Read Chapter 5 to see the first time they showed up.]
"Not you guys again", I said in dismay.
"Who are they", Professor Alden asked.
"We'll tell you" Jessie said.
"Oh no", I said knowing what was coming. [My Journey With You Extra: Oh boy.]
"Prepare for trouble."
"And make It double."
"Jessie!"
"James!"
"Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now, or prepare to fight!"
"Meowth! That's right!"
"Do they say that every time", May asked annoyed.
"Hey", James said. "I'll have you know young lady that we worked really hard on that!"
"Sorry", May said.
But I can tell she wasn't really sorry.
"Anyway", Jessie said. "Look what we've got."
With that Jessie held something, and Professor Alden gasped.
"Those are the keys to the ruins! How did you get them?"
"That doesn't matter", Meowth said. "What matters is that we're going to use it to see what's in those ruins!"
"I don't think so", I stated. "Pikachu, use Thunder!"
With that Pikachu did as told.
And then this happened.
"Looks like Team Rocket is blasting off again!"
And the star.
I picked up the keys and gave them to Professor Alden.
He placed them in a door...and a secret passage was revealed!
We walked into it and saw an underwater lake.
And in it was Pokémon I had never seen before.
"What are those", I asked.
"I'm on it", May said before getting out her Pokédex and scanning the Pokémon.
Relicanth. A Pokémon that was once believed to be extinct. The species has not changed it's form for 100 million years. [My Journey With You Extra: That's the Pokémon Emerald entry.]
"Amazing."
One Hour Later
Everything was back to normal at the Pokémon Center. [My Journey With You Extra: Thank goodness.]
May was hugging Torchic.
"I'm so glad you're okay girl", the former stated.
"Torchic", Torchic said happily. [My Journey With You Extra: Now it is okay to pull at my heart strings.]
I looked at Nurse Joy.
"Officer Jenny is going to look into who those people were", she revealed.
"You have no idea who those people were", I asked.
"None."
"Dang it", I said angrily.
Suddenly...May put her hand on my shoulder.
This made my heart race. [My Journey With You Extra: Revenge! Read chapters 7 and 8 to see what I'm talking about.]
"It's okay Ash", she reassured. "We'll find them."
This made me smile.
"Thanks May."
May just smiled at me. [My Journey With You Extra: And...my heart is died. It died from all the sweetness.]
"So", Nurse Joy started. "Where are you kids going now?"
"I'm thinking about going to Petalberg City."
"That's my hometown", May revealed excitedly. "Why do you wanna go there?"
"I heard there's a Gym Leader there", I revealed.
And then...May did something weird.
She started snickering.
"Why are you laughing", I asked.
"You'll find out."
HotXbun: That was...odd?
Challenge: Tell me why you think May is snickering.
