(A/N) Hey I'm back. Sorry if I kept you waiting, I've been pretty busy with school and stuff lately. Anyway, this is for you KH fans, did you hear about the 3 new games that they just announced? I don't know much about them. All I know is that there's a game for the PSP, Ds, and mobile phones. Well you guys can check that out later. Anyway, here's Chapter 11!! Pokeshippers, you are gonna love this chapter.

Chapter 11

"I can't believe I just accepted a match with Gary, again," said Ash.

"Pika pi (You and your big mouth)," replied Pikachu.

"Oh well, let's save the butt-whipping for tomorrow. Let's go see Brock."

Ash walked up to the Pewter City Gym door as he rang the door bell. When the door opened, Ash had to look down to see that Brock's little brothers and sisters opened the door. Ash laughed since they all looked like Brock's mini-me's.

"Hey guys look!" one of the kids yelled, "its Ash!" Then more kids huddled the door.

"WAAA, there's more?" replied Ash.

"Dog-pile!" all the kids yelled.

"Nooooo!" yelled Ash as the midgets jumped all over him.

"Alright, all of you off, NOW!" yelled a familiar voice.

"Yes Brock," answered all the siblings simultaneously as they ran into another room.

"Ouch, thanks Brock."

"Don't mention it, Ash. So what's up? Why did you visit?" asked Brock.

"Well Brock, I was going to visit Misty, and I wanted to know if you wanted to come along too. Just like the old days."

Brock let out a little giggle, just like Ash's mom. "Sure Ash, I'll take you in my van."

Ash moved his head sideways. "Why is everyone giggling every time I mention Misty?" He thought to himself.

Meanwhile…

Misty had just finished eating breakfast and went back up to her room. She opened her window in her room, letting the nice, cold breeze enter.

"Wow, what a beautiful day," she said out loud.

"Toge," said a drowsy Togepi.

"Well good morning Togepi. Did you have a nice sleep?" asked Misty. Togepi gently put her head against its pillow, thus falling back asleep. Misty let out a little giggle. "Oh Togepi, you're too cute. Huh?" Misty looked at the ground to see the photograph that see went to sleep to last night. Misty smiled when she saw Ash.

"You know what? I'm going to write in my diary today." Misty grabbed her diary from out of her closest and put it on her desk. "Wow, it seems that I haven't wrote anything in awhile." Misty hadn't written a thing since the day she left Ash. She used it on their journey nearly everyday, so she has a lot of entries.

"Let's see, okay I start with this." Misty started to write…

Dear Diary,

I know I haven't written in awhile, but I got some excited news. Well one, my best friend and my secret crush Ash just won the Pokemon League yesterday. I'm so happy for him. Even though I feel happy for him, I feel disappointed since I wasn't there. We've been through so much together and I always cheered for him every step of the way. I wonder if he'll forgive me, because I really wish I could've gone.

Oh wait, it gets better. Just hours after he won, I had just finished a gym battle and I got a message from the gym's secretary Sarah. She told me that Ash had just visited and wanted to say hi to me. I felt like my heart was about to jump out of my chest and run towards him. So I checked to see if he was outside, but he was gone. I couldn't believe it. I waited forever for him to do something like this, and it finally happens and I'm stuck in a gym battle.

Oh I feel so, what's the word…stupid. Sorry, that's the only word I could think of at the moment. I wish I could've told Ash I loved him, but no. I was too afraid to tell him. All Ash cared about was pokemon battles and gym badges, he wouldn't care about getting into a relationship with me. Besides, why would he love someone like me anyway? I'm not really pretty, I always yell at him, I always hit him with my mallet. So why would he love me? I bet he loves that May girl. She's much prettier and way nicer than I could ever be. But then again, Ash might be dense enough and won't know that May likes him. Hopefully she doesn't.

Anyway, last night I checked out the photo of us that hangs on my wall everyday. It brought back a lot of memories, probably the best times of my life. Then, I saw me and Ash together. He had his arm on my shoulder and I right then and there is when I felt that he actually…cared for me. Nah, who am I kidding? He's a Pokemon Master, he's probably has tons of crushes. Probably more beautiful than me. Maybe likes that May girl? Wait, I've already asked that. But still, no matter what, I will always have a crush, big or small, on Ash Ketchum.

Wow, I've really written a lot haven't I? Oh well, it was nice writing to you again. See ya!

-Misty

Misty closed her diary and put it on her bed. She placed it back in her closest as she closed the door from her secrets.

Meanwhile…

"C'mon Brock, let's go!" yelled Ash.

"Hold on Ash. I know my car keys are here somewhere."

Ash and Pikachu were getting restless. Then were leaning on the Brock's van, eagerly waiting for him to show up.

"Found them!" yelled Brock. Ash and Pikachu let out a huge sigh of relief. "Hey guess what Ash. There were in my hand the whole time." Ash and Pikachu started to hit their heads against the van. "Just get in," said Brock

Brock drove a huge van, maybe because of all siblings he had. Ash was pretty quiet on the trip. He was excited, yet nervous at the same time. He couldn't wait to see his best friend Misty.

"Why am I feeling this way?" he asked himself. "It's just Misty. I used to see her everyday, how is this time any different?"

"You've been pretty quiet Ash," said Brock.

"Huh?" Ash woke up from his little daydream.

"Is something bothering you Ash?" asked Brock.

"Um, no Brock. I'm just tired, that's all."

"Okay, if you say so."

Ash pulled out the fishing lure that Misty gave him. Ash really loved it, not only was a cool gift, but it was designed exactly like Misty. Ash had held on to that lure ever since Misty gave it to him.

"So I see you're thinking about Misty again," said Brock.

"Huh? Um, yeah," replied Ash.

"Ash, could I ask you a question?"

"Um, sure Brock."

"Um, Ash I know I'm one of your best friends and I used to travel with you for years. But when I first met you, um, promise me you won't be angry right?"

"Yeah Brock," replied Ash.

"Well Ash, when I first met you and Misty, I thought you two were, you know…a couple."

"Well, I see where you could get that."

"And everyday that I traveled with you guys, you and Misty kept on denying that you two were a couple."

"And…"

"And I saw how much you were crying when Misty and I left, so I just wanted to know…"

"What is it Brock?" Ash asked.

"Ash, you like Misty don't you."

"What? Where do you get that?"

"Do I really have to repeat the last eight sentences?"

"I guess not, but you see Brock. Me and Misty are just close friends. Besides, if Misty wouldn't really like me anyway. I was just a weird kid who only liked to battle and train pokemon. She would never like me."

Brock just smiled, knowing exactly what Ash was thinking.

"Pika (You'd be surprised)," said Pikachu.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Ash.

"Cha (Oops, I've said too much)," replied Pikachu.

Brock just laughed, "I don't know what he said, but I bet it was funny." Brock bent over and pet Pikachu, who was in the back seat, in the head.

"Uh, Brock, whose driving?"

"Huh?" Brock and Ash looked to see a semi-truck come right towards them.

"Ahhhhhhhh!" they both yelled.

Pikachu rolled his eyes, "Pikachu (Do I have to do everything by myself?)"

Pikachu put his tail on the steering wheel and turned it towards the right, back into the correct lane.

Ash and Brock sighed, "Thanks Pikachu." Brock looked into the mirror as he saw the truck driver give them the finger.

"Hey look, we're here," said Ash.

"Okay, are you ready Ash?"

"Yeah, wait for what?"

"You know what I mean," replied Brock.

Ash turned his head sideways, "What does he mean by that?"

Brock parked in the gym's parking lot, as Ash wasted no time getting out.

"C'mon Brock, let's go."

"Go on ahead Ash. I'll catch up in a minute."

Ash shrugged, "Okay." He and Pikachu walked over towards the entrance.

Brock pulled out his cell phone and checked to see if Ash was looking. He dialed some number and put the phone to his ears.

"Hey Tracey, its Brock. Hey guess what, Ash nearly admitted that he liked Misty. I'll get them to confess sooner or later. And when they do, that $100 is mine. Later." Brock hung up the phone and ran towards Ash.

Ash knocked on the door just as Brock arrived. This time, the Three Sensational Sisters opened the door.

"Hello?"

"Hi I'm Ash and…" Ash couldn't finish as Brock pushed him away. Brock knelt on his knees.

"So, we meet again."

Ash stared at Pikachu, "You know what to do."

"Cha (My pleasure)," replied Pikachu. Pikachu let out a tiny spark of lightning as it shocked Brock only.

"Oh I remember you guys," said Violet.

"Yeah you're that pervert with no eyes and you're that Pokemon Master that Misty's been crying about," said Daisy this time.

"Huh? Why would Misty be crying over me?" Ash thought to himself.

"So, you're Ash huh," said Lily. Ash nodded his head. "Well congratulations on winning and everything."

"Thanks," replied Ash.

"So I'm guessing you're here to see Misty," said Violet this time. Ash nodded his head again. "Okay, hold on a sec. Hey Misty! You're boyfriend is here!"

"What? I'm not her boyfriend." The three girls, as did Brock, giggled.

"What? Boyfriend? Could it be? Nah, he's too busy. But my sisters think that I'm Ash's girlfriend. So what could they mean? I better check it out." Misty walked out her room and down her stairs. What she saw is what she wanted to see for a long time.

"Ash! It's really you!" Misty quickly ran down the stairs and ran towards Ash. When she reached him, she gave him a big, strong hug. Ash, not really knowing what to do, just hugged her back. "Oh Ash, I've missed you so much."

"I missed you too Misty," replied Ash.

Brock and the Three Sensational Sisters just smiled at them. "So, you two do care for each other."

"Well, no, well yes, but not that way," they both answered simultaneously.

Misty looked around to see Brock there. "Oh hi Brock. Long time no see eh?"

"Yeah," said Brock.

Misty turned her attention back to Ash. "Hey Ash, do you want to go to my room? I've got so much to tell you."

"Sure Misty. Do you want to come too Brock?"

"No thanks. I better leave you two alone."

Ash lowered his head, and then shrugged. "Oh well, c'mon Misty."

"Okay," she said as she grabbed Ash's hand and pulled him up the stairs. She literally pulled him up the stairs by herself, still hand and hand. When they reached her room, Misty shut the door behind them. "So Ash, why did you visit?"

"To see you again Misty," Ash answered like it was another "duh" question, "why wouldn't I want to visit my best friend."

Misty looked down blushing, hoping Ash wouldn't see her. "Wow Ash, that's sweet of you."

Ash looked at Misty for a moment. She hadn't really changed her appearance that much. She still had her ponytail at the side of her head, her eyes were still that beautiful cerulean color, and she was wearing that pink jacket that she rarely puts on. She hadn't really changed height wise, but she did turn out to be a very pretty young woman. Besides, she was nineteen now.

Ash looked at Misty confusingly; he wondered why she was looking at the ground. "Misty, are you all right?" Misty immediately hugged him again. Only this time, she was crying.

"Ash, I'm so sorry."

Ash was even more confused, "For what Misty?"

"I should have been there on your big day. I was always there for you, now look at me. You never even see me anymore. It's all my fault."

"Misty, I would've forgiven you no matter what. I understand."

Misty looked up into Ash's eyes as Ash looked back.

"Wow, she looks pretty when she's crying," Ash thought to himself.

Misty, finally realizing that she was still holding on to Ash, released him.

"So Misty, what do you want to do first?" asked Ash.

"I don't know. Play cards, watch T.V., talk, play video games…"

"Video games!" shouted Ash. Misty suddenly got quiet. "Sorry, it's just that I haven't played video games in such a long time. I hope its okay with you Misty."

Misty just smiled at him, "Sure Ash, I'd love to." Misty got out all her video games. "So Ash, which one do you want to play?"

"I don't know Misty, which one is your favorite?"

"My favorite…oh this one definitely," said Misty. She picked up her favorite game as Ash looked at it shockingly. "It's called Kingdom Hearts. It's a role-playing game where you play as a guy named…"

"Sora," answered Ash.

"Huh? You've played this before Ash?" asked Misty.

"No, I just know his name is Sora," answered Ash.

"Oh come on Ash. How could you have possibly known who Sora is without playing the game?" asked Misty.

"I just know, I guess. But there's this strange feeling that I've got right now."

"What is it?" asked Misty.

"I would tell you, but you wouldn't believe me. You'd probably think I'm weird or something."

Misty grabbed Ash's hands. "Ash…you are weird." Ash looked down sadly. "Ash, you're my best friend. I will always listen to you."

Ash looked up happier. "Why is she talking to me like this? The old Misty would've just laughed or something. Why is she being so nice to me?" "Okay, it may sound weird but, I think I met Sora before." After Ash said those words, he immediately closed his eyes. When he reopened them, he was surprised to see that Misty wasn't laughing at him or anything. She just stood there like nothing ever happened.

"Do you really think so Ash?" she asked.

"Um, yeah. I don't really remember meeting him or anything. It's just that when I saw his face, I knew he was Sora."

"Well Ash, if you know Sora, do you know the other characters?"

"Let me see," he replied. Ash looked at the cover of the game. "Hm, that girl. She seems familiar. But I can't let Misty know." "Um, no I don't Misty."

"Hmm, this is strange. Anyway, do you still want to play?" Misty asked.

As much as Ash wanted to be with Misty, he had a great need to be alone. "Sorry Misty, I…I…I…I gotta go."

"Where are you going Ash?"

Ash didn't say a word as he walked slowly out of the room.

Misty had a sad look on her face. "Was it something I said?" She asked as she looked at Pikachu.

"Pika" replied Pikachu. (A/N FYI Ash is the only one who could understand Pikachu. As Misty is the only one who could understand Togepi. Well, for humans anyway.)

"Toge prri." Misty and Pikachu turned around to see Togepi barley nudging herself to wake up.

"Togepi, I see you're awake," said Misty.

"Pika!" yelled Pikachu.

"Hey Togepi, uncle Pikachu is here," said Misty.

"Toge (Uncle Pikachu!)," she said happily. Misty giggled a little bit. She thought it was cute that Togepi thought Pikachu was her uncle. Toge (Mommy, where's daddy?)," she asked.

"What, daddy?" Pikachu asked as he laughed on the ground. "I've gotta tell Ash this."

Misty sighed, "Togepi, I don't know where daddy is. He just left…I hope he's alright."

Ash walked slowly down the stairs. How got down far enough to where Brock and the Three Sensational Sisters could see him. Brock got off the couch and walked towards him.

"Hey Ash, how did it go?" Brock asked.

Ash didn't say a word as he walked out the door and shut it too in the process.

"I wonder what's wrong. Excuse me ladies, I'm going to check on Misty."

The three sisters just nodded as they watched him walk up the stairs.

"You know, he ain't half bad," said Lily as her sisters looked at her strangely.

Brock knocked on Misty's door.

"Door's open," she said weakly.

Brock opened it to find Misty lying on her bed crying.

"Misty, what happened?"

"I don't know Brock. All I did was show him this video game and he went all emo on me."

"Hmm, this is very strange. Let me see that game." Misty handed him the Kingdom Hearts game. "What do you think he saw in this game that made him go emo on you?"

"Well, he said he knew Sora, the guy with the brown spiky hair. He said he might have met him before."

"Well, we got to find him and ask him what's with Sora. You wanna come?"

"Yes!" yelled Misty. Brock wiped the saliva from his face. "Sorry, let's go."

They ran down the stairs until Misty's sisters stopped them.

"And where do you think you're going?" asked Daisy.

"To find Ash," answered Misty. The sisters put their hands on their hips. "C'mon guys, I really need a favor here. I need you to watch over the gym while I'm gone."

"Sure, go ahead Misty," said Lily. "…but Brock stays."

Brock dropped his jaw. "Why me?" he asked himself.

"Trust me," responded Lily as she gave Brock a wink. Brock still didn't know what she meant.

"Don't worry Brock. I could find Ash on my own," said Misty.

"Wait Misty, noooo," is all Misty heard as she shut the door behind her.

Misty grabbed her bike from the side of the house and started to ride it.

"Wow, I think Brock finally found someone. Now where could Ash be?"

"Pika," said Pikachu.

"What Pikachu? You think you know where Ash is?" Pikachu nodded and ran up some random hill. "Oh Pikachu, I hope you could lead me to Ash."

Meanwhile…

Ash was sitting on Cerulean Hill, a small hill right by the ocean. This was a Cerulean City monument because of its great view of the ocean. Ash just sat there, scratching his head.

"Why is this happening to me?" he asked himself. "I feel so ashamed of myself. I was so rude to Misty when she was being very nice to me. But this Sora guy, I know I met him. This is so weird."

"Pika (Ash, there you are)," shouted Pikachu.

Ash turned around to see Pikachu there. "Hey Pikachu, sorry I left you guys. Where's Misty?"

"Pika pi (She was following me on her bike), said Pikachu.

"Her bike, that's why she followed me around on my journey," said Ash.

"Chu (Actually, it's my fault)," said Pikachu.

"Why do you say that?" asked Ash.

"Pika, Pikachu (Well, I'm the one who thunderbolted the bike and destroyed it)," replied Pikachu.

"Yeah, but I'm the one who took it without asking," admitted Ash.

"Chu (Um, nevermind. Yeah, it's your fault)," said Pikachu.

Ash sighed, "I don't know how she could even put up with me. All we did was argue over the littlest things. I wish I could apologize to her somehow."

"Apology accepted," said Misty. Ash turned around to see Misty walking up the hill with her bike. She placed her bike down and walked over to Ash. "Ash, I forgave you a long time ago. You don't need to apologize. I understand."

Ash smiled, knowing that he just witnessed Deja-vu. "Thanks Misty."

Pikachu ran up some random tree as Misty sat next to Ash.

"So Ash, what are you doing up here?" asked Misty.

"Just thinking of a lot of stuff," replied Ash.

"Really? Like what?"

"Well, too many things at once. My dream finally being fulfilled, you know being a Pokemon Master. Who would think that being a Pokemon Master would be so tough. Then there's Sora, who I know I've met before…I just can't picture it. Then…you."

Misty really opened her eyes with that last comment. "Was he really thinking of…me? This is a dream come true." Misty stared at the ocean with the beautiful sunset reflecting off it. Misty then stared at Ash. Unlike her, Ash had really changed in appearance.

Before, Misty was about two inches taller than Ash. Now Ash was about five inches taller than Misty. He still had that messy hairstyle, only a little a bit shorter this time. His voice wasn't low but it was a little deeper. He wasn't buff, but he was a little more muscular. He turned out to be a good looking young man.

"It's beautiful out here, eh Misty?" asked Ash.

Misty awoke from her little daydream then answered, "Yeah Ash, it's gorgeous." Misty thought to her how much she wanted this to happen. Her and Ash, all alone watching the beautiful sunset together on Cerulean Hill. She wanted to tell Ash she loved him, but she couldn't. "What if he's with someone else?" she thought to herself. She had to ask him. "Ash"

"Yeah Misty?"

"Have you ever had a girlfriend?"

Ash looked at her. "Um…no, no I haven't Misty."

Misty's heart jumped as she was trying to hide her huge grin from Ash.

"What about you Misty. Have you ever had a boyfriend?"

Misty blushed at the ground. "Well Ash, I've never even been kissed before."

"What! Misty, you're nineteen. How come you've never been kissed before?"

"Well Ash, I've been saving my first kiss for the man I love."

"Oh great, she loves someone else," Ash thought to himself. "Well Misty, what's your man like?"

Misty blushed even more. "Well Ash, he's tall, handsome, sweet, friendly, charming…I just love everything about him."

With each characteristic Misty mention, Ash felt a jolt in his heart. "Wow, that guy is nothing like me."

"Well Misty, I'm glad you finally found someone. It seems you're really happy."

Misty looked sad now. "But I'm not happy Ash. I'm always depressed because I never get to see him. I know I love him, but I want to know if he loves me back."

Ash put his hand on Misty's shoulder. "Wow, I'm sorry Misty. I hope you'll get to see him again."

Misty giggled gently, hopefully Ash wouldn't notice. "Wow, he might have changed in appearance, but he's still as dense as ever. When will he ever figure out that he's the one I love?"

"Anyway Misty, I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I don't know what happened to me. It's just that Sora reminds me of my past…and my father."

"Your father? How come you've never mentioned your father before Ash?" asked Misty.

"I don't really like to talk about it, but I will now. I've kept it inside for such a long time."

"What happed to him Ash?"

"Well Misty, my father is…dead."

"Dead? Oh Ash I'm so sorry."

"I don't really remember my father. All I know was that he was a great Pokemon Master, people called him the greatest ever. I always wanted to be like him."

"So is that why you wanted to be a Pokemon Master?"

"Yes, all I remember of my father is that I promised him that I would be the greatest Pokemon Master ever. I didn't and still don't know how to be the greatest, but the only clue he gave me was to look in my heart."

Misty looked sadly at the ground.

"What about you Misty? What happened to your parents?"

"Ash, I don't really like to talk about it."

Ash smiled, "Its okay Misty. The only reason I told you about my father is because of Sora."

"But this is too weird Ash. How could you have possibly met a video game character?"

"I don't know Misty, I just have."

Misty changed the subject. "Ash, I'm really sorry."

"Again? For what?"

"Well, I've been thinking too. About our journey, all the fun times we had."

Ash looked at Misty confusingly. "You're sorry for remembering our journey?"

"No Ash, it's just that I heard you say that it was your fault that we argued all the time. Then you mentioned that I followed you because you destroyed my bike."

"Actually Pikachu destroyed it," replied Ash.

"PIKA! (Hey, I heard that!)," yelled Pikachu.

Ash and Misty just shook their heads.

"Anyway Ash, I wanted to tell you that I…I didn't follow you because of my bike."

"Really? Then why did you follow me then Misty?"

Misty sighed as she looked at the sky, "because, I needed a friend."

"Friend?" asked Ash.

"Yeah Ash. I left the gym in order to leave my sisters since they treated horribly and didn't take me serious. They were so beautiful while I was the ugly runt of the family." Ash nodded for Misty to continue. "Well, I told them that I wanted to be a pokemon trainer and be as good as them. But all they did was laugh at me and they said that I would never be as good as them. So I left home to prove that I could be a great water pokemon trainer and prove my sisters wrong."

"And you've already proven your point," replied Ash.

"Huh?"

"Misty, you're an amazing pokemon trainer. In fact, you should be laughing at your sisters because you and I both know that you could own your sisters in a battle."

Misty started to blush again. "Thank you Ash. That's exactly why I traveled with you."

"Huh?"

"Because you're such a nice guy who really cares about his pokemon and friends. I knew I would be happy with you."

"Thanks Misty."

"Ash"

"Yeah Misty?"

"I just wanted to tell you that you're the closest friend I've ever had. You were first one who's ever really cared about me. When I was sad, you were always the first one to try and cheer me up. And all I did to repay you was argue with you over the littlest things. That's why I wanted to apologize for."

"Misty"

"Yeah Ash?"

"I just wanted to let you know that you're also the closest friend that I've ever had too. You really mean a lot to me. I'm really grateful now that I took your bike."

Misty giggled, "Yes! I do mean a lot to him."

Ash sighed, "Wow, she looks pretty tonight. I've gotta make her happy some how."

"And one more thing Misty," Ash said breaking the silence.

"Yeah Ash?"

"I think you're more beautiful than all your sisters combined."

This time Misty blushed so much that she thought she was going to pass out. "Wow Ash, that's the sweetest thing anyone has ever told me." "Was he really saying this? Maybe he does love me back. Okay Misty, this is your chance." "Um Ash."

"Yeah Misty?"

"I just wanted to say that I…I…I." This was very hard for Misty to say, if you couldn't tell already. One false move and their friendship could be ruined forever.

"What is it Misty?"

Misty gently grabbed Ash's hands as her face moved closer to his.

"Pikachu! (Holy cow, this is it!)," yelled Pikachu as he got out his camera.

"I just wanted to let you know that ever since we first met," she said as she moved closer, "I always l…l…l…lo,"

"Excuse me," said another voice.

Ash, Misty, and Pikachu fell down anime style.

"I'm looking for a guy named Ash. Do you know where I could find him?"

Ash quickly got up, "Yeah I know someone named Ash. That's me."

"OH FINALLY!"

"Huh? You've been looking for me?"

"Yes Ash, I need you to come with me."

Misty was getting really frustrated, "Hold on a sec, who are you?"

"Oh, my name is Kairi."

"Huh? That's weird," thought Misty. "Kairi? The same Kairi from Kingdom Hearts?"

"Kingdom Hearts?" she asked. She obviously doesn't know that she's in a video game.

"Yeah, you look like Kairi from Kingdom Hearts. You live on the Destiny Islands with your best friends Riku and Sora," said Misty.

"Wait, how do you know this stuff?"

"Wait, Sora?" asked Ash as he joined in on the conversation. "You're friends with Sora?"

"Um, yeah Ash, I am."

"Do you know where he is?"

"No, I was hoping that he knows where I am. You see, I was kidnapped by some mysterious guy from my galaxy. That guy and another guy from some group called Team Rocket named Giovanni want to destroy you…I mean Sora."

"Man that's sad," said Ash.

"Is there anyway you could get back?" asked Misty.

"If only Sora were here," answered Kairi.

"Is there any way we could help?" asked Ash.

"I don't know," said Kairi. "Geez, this Ash guy is really nice. There's something about him though. He looks…familiar in a way. Anyway, maybe he could help us."

"Anyway, why were you looking for me?" asked Ash.

"Well, I just needed help. I didn't know where to get help and…"

"Wait, how did you get away from those goons anyway Kairi?" asked Misty.

"Maybe I should tell them the truth," Kairi thought to herself. "They let me go."

"Wow, that seemed to be pretty easy for you," said Ash.

"No Ash you see, I was ordered to bring you to them. I didn't want to, but it was the only way to save Sora."

"But why would they want me?" asked Ash.

"Because you're one of the…"

All of a sudden, a giant net landed on top of them.

"What the heck, who did this?" asked Kairi.

"Ha ha ha, to protect the world from devastation."

"To unite all peoples within our nation."

"To denounce the evils of truth and love."

"To extend our reach to the stars above."

"Jessie."

"James."

"Team Rocket blasting at the speed of light."

"Surrender now or prepare to fight."

"Meowth, that's…hey I thought we don't work for Team Rocket no more."

Jessie kicked Meowth, "Shut up Meowth!"

"Team Rocket!" yelled both Misty and Ash.

"Wrong," said Jessie, "since we're fired, we're no longer apart of Team Rocket anymore."

"But when we bring you back to the boss," added James, "we will surely get our jobs back."

"Hey I thought we were friends!" yelled Kairi.

"We are," exclaimed Meowth, "and that's why we're setting you three free."

"What?" said the three teenagers simultaneously.

Team Rocket cut the net as the teens walked out of it.

"Hmm, this is too easy. There's something very fishy about them," thought Ash.

"Um thanks guys but, why did you let us go?" asked Kairi.

"Because we wanted revenge on Giovanni," explained Meowth, "and since you're on of the chosen ones, we wanted to be on your side."

"Chosen one?" asked Ash. "What do you mean I'm a chosen one?"

"You mean you never knew?" asked James.

"I was going to tell him, but I thought he wouldn't believe a stranger like me," said Kairi.

"Wait, you knew I was a chosen one Kairi?" asked Ash. Kairi nodded. "Then who's the other chosen one?"

Team Rocket and Kairi looked at each other and sighed, "Sora."

"What?" said Ash.

"So that's how you know Sora," exclaimed Misty, "you two are the chosen ones."

"Anyway twerp, I mean Ash, can you help us defeat Giovanni?"

"Yeah sure, I'll help you guys."

Misty grabbed Ash's hands, "We'll help you guys."

"Alright," shouted Meowth, "let's show Giovanni what we're cooking!"

"Cooking? OMG MOM! I forgot that I have to be home before dinner. I'm sorry guys but I have to go."

"Wait Ash," yelled Misty, "what about Kairi and Team Rocket?"

"Okay guys. I've gotta a battle with Gary tomorrow at the Viridian City Gym. We'll meet there tomorrow. Got it?" They nodded their heads. "Okay bye."

"Ash wait!" yelled Misty.

"Yeah Misty?"

"Aren't you forgetting about someone?"

"Oh yeah, hey c'mon Pikachu!" Pikachu jumped off the tree.

"Well yeah, but aren't you forgetting someone else?"

"Hmm, oh yeah, I forgot about Brock."

"Ash"

"What Misty?" Ash was getting a little annoyed.

Misty looked confused. "What, it was her who called you," she said as she pointed to Kairi.

"Um Ash, I don't have a place to stay. Do you think I could stay with one of you guys for the night?"

"Sure Kairi. You could stay over at my place," said Misty.

"Alright then. Now…"

"Hey, what about us?" asked the ex-Team Rocket members.

"I don't know, find a hotel," answered Ash as Team Rocket put their heads down.

"Okay, now let's go," Ash finally said.

To make a long story short, Ash, Misty, and Kairi head towards the gym. They tell Brock the whole story and Brock meets Kairi. So with Misty and Kairi both staying at the gym, and Ash finally freeing Brock from Lily, Brock is driving Ash and Pikachu back home. And that's where Part 2 would start.

(A/N) Well that's the end of Part 1. If you're searching for part 2, it's the same title only it says part 2. It's pretty simple. Well I hope you liked Part 1. Part 2 is coming soon! Please R&R.!!
