The Promise Chapter 13

Red POV

I woke up to a great smell, and a not so great one. Aura's butt was on my face. That's not the good smell; the good smell was breakfast. I shot out of bed and ran downstairs in my pajamas with Aura still sitting on my head. I slid into the kitchen since I was wearing socks and it was hardwood floor. There I saw Yellow already dressed and eating. "Morning." She said while smiling at me. I put Aura down and sat in the chair. I was just about to get some eggs on my plate when I felt a tugging on my leg. I looked down and I saw Aura pointing at my head. I looked at Yellow but she only laughed.

After breakfast we decided to go to Viridian Forest. We were in Route 1 and it was me, Yellow and Aura, still sitting on my head I might add, and it was great. "Yellow?" "Hm?" "I would like to get some training in with my Pokémon today. I have to get stronger even though we are recuperating." She turned and looked at me with a pout on her face. "You know if you get injured, I will never let you live it down?" I started laughing. "Ha, don't worry. I know."

Yellow POV

We got to the forest and Red immediately sent out his Venusaur. "Saur! Use Razor Leaf on the tree!" He nodded and sent out two deadly sharp leaves and cut the tree in half. I sighed. "C'mon Aura. Let's go find some berries." I told him. He nodded and jumped on my head.

We walked into a quiet area of the forest and began picking. I sat down and began examining the berries. That's when something very strange happened. Aura poked me and showed me a berry, but it wasn't Aura. It was a little girl. She had black hair and amber eyes. She had a look in her eyes like she was expecting me to respond to what the berry was. I panicked and started to crawl backwards. She started to walk closer. I quickly closed my eyes and shook my head. "It's not real. It's not real." I opened my eye again and saw Aura. He looked at me as I just got out of a mental hospital. I sweat dropped. I gathered a few more berries and then ran back to Red.

I wasn't very surprised when I got back. I saw all of Red's Pokémon looking at him and he was lying on the ground gasping. "Yellow!" he said. "My body hurts." I face palmed. I walked over and gave him an Oran Berry. I then sat down next to him.

"I think I'm going to take a break." He said as he fell asleep on my back. I giggled. Red was so careless. I got out my sketchpad and started to draw. Both Pika and Chuchu got around me and looked at my drawing.

Silver POV

I was in Littleroot Town. As soon as I landed I started to look around for Gold. I didn't see him so that was a good sign. I started for the lab. I was in the middle of a field when I heard a noise. It was like something was running. I looked behind me and saw him. He was riding his Typhlosion like it was a horse. He circled around me and jumped off in front of me, with his Pokémon right behind him. "GET OUT OF THE WAY!" I yelled at him. "What if I refuse?" he said with his usual smirk. Now I was infuriated. "Feraligatr, use Hydro Pump!" I yelled. The Pokémon flew out of the ball and shot out three rapid pillars of water at Typhlosion. "Double team Explotario!" He yelled. The Pokémon split into two, then fours. It circled my Pokémon. I concentrated and decided. "Use Aqua Jet to jump up then use slash on the one above you!" I yelled. Feraligatr looked up and shot into the air with his water attack. It was a direct hit. Typhlosion flew back and landed on its back. Gold snickered. He recalled his Pokémon. "Go Utaro!" he yelled. A sudowoodo came out. I glared at Gold. "Bad choice." I whispered to myself. "Surf go!" I commanded. "Substitute Utaro!" Gold yelled. The Pokémon was replaced with a doll. The surf went right through it. "Now Utaro, Wood hammer!" "What?" I thought. A green light started to flow from Sudowoodo and eventually shaped into a hammer. It struck my Pokémon with full force. My Pokémon fainted and his Pokémon took serious recoil. I growled.

"Come back Utaro!" Gold switched Pokémon. "I need to pass Gold! Why are you trying to stop me?" I yelled at him. "You can't let Lance control you." He said. "He has BLUE hostage and threatens to kill her if I don't cooperate! What am I supposed to do?" "Do you really think he can keep Blue hostage?" he asked me and smirked. "What do you…?" His smirk was replaced with a serious face. "Before I left to get you, I stayed after a little. Here is what happened.

(Past)

"Now girl, I shall have to dispose of you since you happen to know my little plan." Lance said. Blue started to squirm around and panic. "Don't you worry, it will be quick." He pulled out a knife. With one fierce movement, he stabbed her right in the heart. "What the…?" Pink substance started to ooze out of her chest. Her body started to deform and a ditto replaced her. "HAHAHAHA! You really aren't as intelligent as you are made out to be Lance!" Blue yelled standing at the start of the entryway. "Dragonite, kill her!" The Pokémon shot after her. "Come back Ditty!" Blue yelled and charged up the stairs."

(Present)

Gold POV

"And that was the last I saw before I had to chase after you." I replied. Silver looked really angry. He walked towards me and then punched me right in the face. "OW! What was that for?" I shrieked. "Why didn't you tell me this before you idiot?" Silver yelled. "I need to find her." And with that he took off. I stood up and rubbed my jaw. "Ow, Silver really hit me hard that time." I started walking towards the closest Pokémon center.

I had just left Littleroot when I heard some screaming. "Is that the scream of a fair maiden? I will come to aid." I thought out loud. "No! I won' put it on!" the voice was close. I turned a corner to find none other than our juniors. "Come on Saph, we made a bet and you lost." "That ain't fair though. I have never played chess in my entire life!" Sapphire turned in the tree to find me sitting right behind her. She screamed and almost fell out of the tree. "Allow me to escort a beautiful you lady as yourself to a safer place." I said. Saph started to frown. She clocked me on the head and I fell out of the tree. "Gold, find another hobby!" she yelled at me. I rubbed my head while Ruby was laughing at me. "Geez, everyone just likes to beat on me." I said.

Red POV

I woke up and realized that I had fallen asleep. (I know, but he is thick headed so bear with him) I was leaning against Yellow. I turned around and she fell over and hit her head on the ground. She immediately sat up and rubbed her head. "Oh Yellow, I'm so sorry." I said trying to help in some way. "Thanks for waking me up Red." She said as she stood up still rubbing her head. "Hehe, so… what time is it anyway?" "Huh?" she searched her pouch that she had around her waist. She pulled out her Pokegear. "It's 3:30." I looked around and saw all of my Pokémon sleeping in the area. "Well, since all our Pokémon are sleeping, even Aura, I want to show you something." Her face got a little red but she nodded. I took her hand and started to lead her off. Before we left I looked back at the Pokémon. Aura was sleeping in between Pika and Chuchu. I snickered and then we left to go deeper in the forest.

Yellow POV

"Red where are we going?" I asked because my arm was starting to hurt from his grip. "Just a little more." He said continuing his little route. Eventually we got to a grove. There was a circle of grass with one tree standing in the middle. "Over here." He led me to the tree. I saw that there was a hole in the middle of the tree. Red reached in and pulled out the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. It was a flower. It had bright red pedals and its stem was a brilliant blue. The nectar area was a radiant yellow. "R…Red, Its amazing." I said holding the flower. "I thought you would like it. I found it while I was training here just barely." I took the flower from my hand and placed in my hair. "Now it's even more beautiful." My face turned redder than a cherry. "He leaned in and kissed me.

That is a moment I will never forget in my entire life. I kissed him back. After about… um I really don't know actually, but the point is that we pulled apart. "Yellow I want to tell you something." I was blushing madly.

Red POV

"Yellow I want to tell you something." I said. "Yellow, I…," I couldn't think straight. These sort of things are hard! Before I could say anything else a blade flew out of nowhere. I flew straight passed Yellow's head missing by mere centimeters. "OH NO!" I said. I grabbed Yellow's hand and started to run. "What's going on?" she yelled as the wind started to pick up. "We need to move fast!" I yelled back.

We were almost back to where our Pokémon where. But the wind got faster and I could hear someone following us at an extremely rapid pace. I could also tell that we wouldn't make it if we didn't speed up. I looked back and Yellow was struggling breathing because of her wounds. In one quick motion I pulled her closer (while still running) and picked her up. I ended up carrying her bridal style. "Red!" she was huffing. "Don't… die!" she yelled as we were running! I looked at her and she was crying. Now I was angry. No one, and I mean NO ONE, hurts my precious Yellow. I started running faster, faster than I have ever run before. I was running off of pure adrenaline now. Behind me trees were falling left and right and the wind was trying to drag us back. I let out a loud scream and ran even faster if that was even possible.

Yellow POV

We arrived at the area where our Pokémon were. Everyone was awake now and sensed danger. As soon as we got there everyone started running with Red. "AERO! TAKE YELLOW, PIKA, AND CHUCHU AND BRING THEM TO A SAFE PLACE! NOW!" he yelled with the wind. Aero nodded and Red threw me on Aero while Aero picked the pikachus up with its feet. "NOOO! RED!" I screamed bawling my eyes out. Red looked at me and smiled. How could he smile at a time like this? "GO!" he screamed again. Aero took off at the speed of sound, leaving me to see Red running from the thing that was chasing us.

…

We were sitting under a tree in Route 1. I was bawling. The three Pokémon were also crying. Aura came up to me. My tears were flying off of my face in the wind. Aura reached his paw and wiped a tear from my eye. I looked up at him. Now I got even more depressed. Then he told me something. "Don't cry Yellow." I picked him up and hugged him as tight as I could. "Why!" I yelled to no one specifically. "Why can't I live?" I yelled still hugging Aura.

After crying for like 3 hours, I knew I needed to head back or I would get a cold. "Come on guys." I said sniveling. "He's not coming back. Not this time." I said and the Pokémon looked at me. They all put their heads down and followed.

I was just entering Pallet when Aura started making noise. I was confused so I read his mind. "Yellow! The thing is back!" I just collapsed. There really was no more point in living was there? I didn't care if he killed me. I just want to be with Red where we would not be hurt. I noticed my stomach wounds started to bleed again. I looked up with hazy eyes and saw someone walking towards me. I stood up and spread my arms. "If you came here to kill me, than do it!" I yelled. I don't think I have ever felt so emotionless in my life. The figure didn't stop walking. I stood there and closed my eyes waiting for the blade to pierce my skin. ….

Nothing

Instead I felt something collapse on me. I was still standing so I picked up the figures body that was laying on me. I my eyes were filled with fear as I saw who the figure was…
