Hello, everyone! Welcome to the twenty-eighth part of the 151 Pokeshipping Stories! In the last section, Ash's wife and kids made him a cake for his birthday! The day before the chapter was posted was Ash's birthday, by the way. Anyways, in this chapter, I am going to show you guys a single day in the life of Ash and Misty. I was initially going to publish this chapter as the 24th chapter (because there are 24 hours in a day). Then, my choice to record my stories for the world to hear, Mother's day, and finally, the birthday I mentioned earlier happened. That forced me to move this chapter to later in the year. And you know how much I hate stuff being pushed back. And in the year of things being pushed back, I am happy to finally get to this idea! Anyways, enough ranting and raving. Let's start chapter seven times four!
It was seven o'clock in the morning, and the sun was about to rise above Cerulean City. Not many people up for the day yet. But a few people were. Two of those who fell in the latter category are the champion of the Kanto region and his wife. Their names were Ash and Misty Ketchum. As they were two of the most influential people in the Kanto region, they had to get up super early so that they could get ready for their day.
"Morning, Ash," Misty said as she groaned and opened her eyes, rubbing them.
"Good morning, Misty!" Ash said as he turned off the alarm clock and got out of bed. They then made their way down to the kitchen for a quick breakfast.
"What are you in the mood for?" Ash asked his wife.
"Maybe something simple. Maybe some scrambled eggs with toast," Misty said.
"I don't see why we cannot do that," Ash said as he got the oven heated up. "You want some coffee with that?"
"I do," Misty said with a smile.
"Okay," Ash said as he started to make some coffee as well, "Do you want it with or without milk."
"With milk," Misty said as Ash cooked the eggs.
"Alright then," Ash said. After a few minutes, Ash served Misty her breakfast, "So, what are you going to do today, Mist?"
"The usual," Misty said, "The gym."
"Well, I plan on doing the usual. Also, I will do all of the stuff that is going on in the League. The season has just started after a long delay, so that means a lot of work is coming my way."
"Yeah, and I can expect several trainers will want to challenge me after being cooped up at home for weeks on end," Misty said with a smile.
Ash smiled. After breakfast, they went to the gym to swim a few laps in the pool for some exercise before Ash had to leave home for work at the Indigo Plateau. Thanks to his trusty Charizard, the journey would take a few minutes compared to the days it would take on foot, or the hours it would take by car. So that meant that he had more time to do stuff before he had to go to work.
Anyways, after the two young adults showered, they jumped into the pool and swam a couple of laps. The water was right on both of their skins and a good way to wake them up completely. Misty loved it the most, but that did not mean her husband did not like it. After a couple of laps around the pool, Ash's Rotom Phone came flying into the gym.
"Buzz Buzz Buzz! Buzz Buzz Buzz!" It said, "It is time to go to work! It is time to go to work!"
Ash gasped as he looks at the time. He was supposed to be out of the pool five minutes ago!
"Crap crap crap!" ASh said, "I am late!" He hastily got out of the pool to get dressed and to his job, "Goodbye Misty, I love you, and I will be back later on tonight!" He was then out of the pool area in a flash so he could dry himself off and get dressed.
Misty chuckled before deciding to get out of the pool so she could open up the gym for the day's challenges.
It was 8:35 in the morning, and Ash's boss, Scott Enishida, was wondering where the Kanto League Champion is. Not a moment later, Ash busts through the door.
"Sorry, I am late, Scott!" Ash said, "I got a little carried away with my pre-work exercises, and I hope you are more forgiving than your predecessor Goodshow…"
Scott just smiled, "That's okay, Ash! As long as you are here, I am fine!"
"That's great," Ash said, "Anything other than paperwork on the agenda today?"
Scott nodded, "Yep. I have a meeting planned between you and your Elite Four members."
Ash smiled. The Elite Four were the toughest trainers other than him. They consisted of Prima, Koga, Bruno, and Lance. If Ash had the choice, Misty would be in his Elite Four as well, but all of the slots were currently filled. Even if she was one of the most robust gym leaders in the Kanto Region.
"Alright then," Ash said, "When will that be?"
"After lunch," Scott said, "Now get to work!"
"Alright!" Ash said with a smile as he headed to his office. He had to get to all of the paperwork that had to be done.
Meanwhile, back in Cerulean, it was 9:30. It was the time that Cerulean City Gym opened its doors for the day. Misty smiled as she turned the sign from saying the gym was closed to the side that said, "Come on in! We are open for challengers!" The trainers outside smiled as the first one was allowed in. He was a younger trainer who was just starting his journey and was looking to earn a badge from Misty.
"Hello!" the child said to Misty, "Can I have a battle with you?"
"Of course!" Misty said to the trainer, "Just know that I will NOT be going easy on you in any way, shape, or form."
The trainer nods, "Okay then, Misty! My name is Joseph, by the way."
"Alright then, follow me to the battlefield then, Joseph!" Misty said as she led him to the pool, which now had a group of platforms on it so that his Pokemon could stay dry.
"This will be a one on one battle between the challenger, Joseph, and the gym leader, Misty!" the referee declared. "No trainer will be allowed to switch out their Pokemon for whatever reason, and whenever knocks out the opposing Pokemon first will win! Do both of you understand?"
"Yes!" both trainers said to the referee.
"Alright then," the referee said, "Joseph, please send out your Pokemon! You get the first move!"
"Okay!" Joseph said as he pulled out a Pokeball, "Let's go, Spearow!"
Misty smiled. He was obviously trying. She smiled as she decided to give one of her weaker Pokemon a chance to shine on the battlefield. She decided on a Pokemon that her older sisters gave to her for her wedding with Ash. They captured this Pokemon while they were on tour in the Hoenn region. This Pokemon was a Febass.
"We didn't, like, want this Pokemon," Daisy said when she gave it to her, "Because it is, like, ugly and useless!"
Misty didn't like to hear any Pokemon be called ugly or useless, especially water types. So she decided to prove her sisters wrong by making Febass one of the most beautiful and most durable Pokemon in the gym. So far, she was not having much luck, but she was making progress.
Anyways, Joseph told his Spearow to use a Peck attack to start the battle off. The bird then flew off to attack the fish Pokemon with his beak. The Febass was hurt but took the hit.
"Good job taking the attack, Febass!" Misty said, "Now use an Ice Beam!"
"What?!" Joseph asked, "How could your Magikarp use a TM move?!" The ice-type move then hit the flying type for super effective damage.
"Simple," Misty said, "Because the Pokemon I am using is not a Magikarp, it is a completely different yet very similar Pokemon called a Febass."
"Woah…" Joseph said, "That's so cool…" He got distracted to the point where he did not realize that Misty told her Pokemon to use one more Ice Beam for the KO!
"Spearow is unable to battle!" the referee declared, "So that makes Misty the winner of the battle!"
Misty smiled before she pets her Febass, "That was a good job you did, Febass!"
Febass smiled when, all of a sudden, she started to glow! Both the gym leader and the trainer she just defeated gasped as the Pokemon grew longer and more beautiful. Soon, the Febass was no more, and in her place was a beautiful and majestic Milotic.
"Woah…" Joseph said, "That's a beautiful Pokemon!" he then scanned her with his Pokedex for more information. "Milotic, the Tender Pokemon. This Pokemon is breathtakingly beautiful, and those who see it are said to forget about their competitive spirits."
"Anyways, you and Spearow did a good job against me even though you did not win," Misty said. "I hope you come back to battle me again once you become stronger!"
"Okay! I will!" Joseph said as he recalled his Pokemon to its ball and left the gym.
Later, it was 1:30 in the afternoon, and Ash had just finished his lunch and made his way to the meeting room for a meeting with his Elite Four and Scott
"So," Ash said, "Why did you guys call me into this meeting?"
"Because one of the Elite Four members wants to tell us all something," Scott told the champion of the Kanto region.
"Alright then," Ash said, "Which of you wants to tell me the news?" Prima then rose her hand.
"That would be me, Ash," she said to her champion. "I would like to tell you that at the end of this training season, I will be retiring from being a member of the Elite Four." Koga, Bruno, Lance, Scott, and Ash all gasped.
"Why?!" the last one asked, "Why are you retiring at such a young age?!"
"Because I want to be closer to my family on the Orange Islands," Prima explained, "After all, the Indigo Plateau is very far from the closest one of the Orange Islands."
"Alright then," Ash said before he looked at Scott and asked him what it meant when one member of the Elite Four retired. After all, this was the first time he witnessed this happening.
"You get to choose who fills her place," the Pokemon League commissioner said to Ash.
Ash grinned. "I know exactly who to give it to!" he said before asking to be excused.
"OF course," Scott said.
Ash nodded and ran off to his office and picked up the phone. He was halfway from punching in Misty's phone number, but he decided to surprise her later on.
At five-thirty in the late afternoon, Ash returned home from his job at the League, and Misty returned home after closing the gym for the day. "Good afternoon, Misty," Ash said when she came back, "I have some good news for you!"
"Can you wait until later?" Misty asked her husband, "I need to take a shower before our date night."
Ash then suddenly remembered. Today was a Friday, and Fridays were date nights for the Ketchums! "Alright then," Ash said with a smile, "I will tell you when we are out tonight!"
"That's good to hear," Misty said as she went to the bathroom so she could shower off. Ash smiled as he thought of a way to tell his wife the news.
At seven-thirty in the evening, Ash and Misty arrived at the destination of their date this week. It was a fancy restaurant that opened up in Cerulean City, and all of the city's royalty have dined here at least once. All of them, except for Ash and Misty. Well, Ash managed to get the two a reservation, and now they were ready to eat there after a long day of work at the League and gym.
"I cannot believe you have gotten reservations for the Ruby Gyarados, Ash," Misty said with a smile. She was wearing a simple yet still fancy cerulean colored dress, as it was the most elaborate outfit that she had.
"Well, I AM the champion of the Kanto region," Ash said to his wife. He was wearing a tuxedo and was holding Misty's gloved hand, "So naturally, I got higher priority."
Misty smiled as they sat at their table. After they got their drinks of the highest quality wine in the Kanto region, Ash decided now was the time to tell Misty the excellent news. He stood up and knocked his glass with a knife to get everyone's attention.
"Misty Ketchum nee Waterflower," Ash said to his wife, "I have something that I want to tell you."
"What is it?" Misty asked as she looked at him and then the crowd. "And why did you have to get the attention of everyone in the place?!"
"Simple," Ash said, "I just want to announce to you… That starting next season, you will be a member of my Elite Four!"
Misty was silent, as was everyone else in the place. Then, Misty gave a slight smile. A person in the building then started to clap. "Congratulations, Misty!" the person said as the whole place went into applause, happy for their newest member of the Elite Four.
Misty smiled at the applause and hugged ASh tightly, "Thank you ash!" she said.
The Ketchums got home from their date at around ten-thirty at night. Both were happy.
"So," Ash said, "Up for some fun in bed to celebrate your new position?"
"Maybe another day," Misty said, "But for right now, I am tired."
"Okay then," Ash said as the two got ready for bed. When they got into their bed at 11:00, Ash shut off the lights. "Goodnight, Misty. I love you."
"I love you too, Ash!" Misty said with a smile as they both fell asleep to end their day. Tomorrow they would start it all again.
