Misty and Brock looked at Ash like he was crazy, he had just woken up after passing out strangely the night before. Now he was telling them, he remembered being attacked by a super pokemon and dying. "I'm not making it up, so don't look at me that way. It really did happen, we were at New Island, to meet the greatest pokemon trainer ever, and he ended up being Mewtwo. Then Mew showed up, and they had a pokemon showdown. Mewtwo captured all our pokemon, and cloned them. I had to get my pokemon back, but when we got back to the stadium, Mewtwo made the clones fight the originals." Ash drew in a huge breath of air and continued. "Mew and Mewtwo were having a huge fight, throwing balls of psychic energy at each other, there was a huge explosion. The fight had to stop, so I ran up to separate them." he was shaking harder now, "they hurled yet another blast just as I reached them, and I was hit. I don't remember what happened after then, just that I woke up and all the pokemon were crying, and I was soaked in their tears."
Misty and Brock were shocked by Ash's story, he couldn't have made all that up, but if he could remember all that, why couldn't they? It was time to find out what this was all about. When Ash felt better later in the day, they all went to see the Professor to ask him some questions. When they found him, he was at the coliseum, he saw Ash and said, "oh, are you feeling any better today? You had me worried yesterday." Ash nodded, "yeah, I feel better." Misty walked up to the Professor and asked him, "what was the point of that 'activity' yesterday? What did you really want to know?" Professor Hamilton turned away, his pale complexion began to flicker again, he didn't know whether or not to explain himself. "You knew this would happen didn't you?" asked Misty, she could tell by the look on his face it was true. "Why did you bring us here if you knew this would happen?" said Ash angrily. "Yes, I knew that would happen, I knew you would be the one to remember, I wanted to find out what happened." There was a hint of shame in his voice, he began to flicker again. Professor Hamilton began to lose his human form, he became larger and a tail sprouted out of his illusion. Professor Hamilton was really a pokemon!
Ash held out his pokedex, it analyzed, "Mewthree, the blended pokemon. It was created when the DNA of Mewtwo was combined with other pokemon. It has the power to use telekinesis." Ash was stunned, "Mewthree? There are more clones?" Mewthree tried to explain himself, "I was created when Mewtwo accidentally pricked his finger on the DNA collecting needle, he didn't know that it would all be combined. After the cloning machine malfunctioned, all the extra DNA collected on the needle was blended to create me, Mewthree." Mewthree looked sad, "when I left the machine, I was all alone, Mewtwo is my only brethren, I have to find him, but I didn't know anything about him, so I used my psychic powers to unblock what he had blocked." Ash looked at Mewthree, "so you were just trying to find your brother?" he said. "Yes, I am sorry if in doing so, I have hurt you. Do you think you can help me?"
Ash thought for a minute, Mewthree needed his help, but he had just caused so much pain for Ash and his friends. It wouldn't be right to just let Mewthree suffer, "Ok, I'll help you" said Ash. He began telling all that he knew about what happened. Starting at the beginning, "I was training my pokemon, when a pokemon, I think it was a Dragonite, delivered an invitation to me. It was supposed to be from the greatest pokemon trainer in the world, then me, Misty and Brock, went to the docks to catch a ferry to New Island, the place described in the invitation. We were all disappointed to find that all ferries were canceled, so we swam there. A servant girl greeted us… I think it was Nurse Joy, and we were brought to a room and told to release our pokemon. We were introduced to Mewtwo, and he battled with us. After we were all defeated by his super pokemon, he claimed his prize, our pokemon… he, he took Pikachu… but I got him back. All… pokemon… cloned… the machine broke, all the pokemon were freed. There was a huge fight between the clones and the originals, Mew and Mewtwo were having a battle too."
Ash took a long breath, Misty, Brock, and Mewthree were speechless, then Misty began to remember something, she saw Ash running between two pokemon, and his lifeless body as he lay still on the ground. She let a single tear escape her eyes, she remembered all the emotions and thoughts that ran through her mind when she thought Ash was dead. Ash interrupted her thoughts and continued, "Mewtwo was taunting Mew, because he thought he had superior power. They battled, and I tried to stop them, I blacked out…" Ash began to remember something else, he saw himself from above, and pikachu shocking him. Did he have an out of body experience? It appeared so. "…No, I saw something else… I was high in the air, I saw me, and pikachu was shocking me, all the pokemon were crying, Misty was too, and Brock… I didn't see him… then I woke up, pikachu was at my side. Then the clones went away." He wheezed, "Mewtwo said something about a spiritual journey, to find what we already knew. He left with Mew, and erased our memories."
Mewthree thanked Ash, and asked where he though Mewtwo was. "Probably in the mountains…" Ash said. Misty was silent, for some reason she didn't want the strange pokemon to know she remembered some of what happened. Brock nodded, thinking about something. Just then, Ash looked up, "it doesn't look like you'll have to do much looking." He said pointing to the sky. Everyone looked up, Mewtwo hovered above them, then he said in a reverberating voice, - you have been searching for me? - He looked at Mewthree. -Who are you? -
"I am Mewthree…" -good god! Does it ever end?!? Now then, the reason you have unblocked the human's memory would be…- he said. "He knew what I needed to know…" Mewtwo cut him off, -it was blocked for a reason! I didn't want them to remember me in a bad way. - "But I'm your brother…" said Mewthree, "I am lonely… I wondered if there were others like me, but all I found was records of experimentation…" Mewtwo winced, he didn't want to remember that. His face softened, -I suppose I have been a little harsh, come here, brother. - Mewtwo reached out and gave Mewthree a nuggie, - that's what you get for undoing my work, youngun! Now lets get some ice cream, oh, by the way, I don't go by Mewtwo anymore, call me myto, ok? - "Then call me... Bob." Said Mewthree. Out of nowhere, Mew showed up, "Mew, meeeww, mew." It scolded myto. It looked at 'bob,' "mew?" [Who the heck are you?????] "Uh... Hi, I'm Bob, or Mewthree, as it were." Mew looked surprised, "mew? Mew mew???" [ANOTHER one??? Dang! What kind of country is this?!?]
'Bob' had taken about all the rejection it could. "I can't help it! It ain't my fault. You guys are treating me like some kind of vermin, 'another one' what did you mean by that?" it was official, Bob had snapped. Mew and Myto began to drag the babbling pokemon home to the mountains, -You humans won't remember this encounter either- said myto as it cleared Ash's memories of both the current events, and new island. Brock and Misty had their minds wiper of the current events too. Myto left with Mew and Bob. Five minutes later, our heroes regain consciousness, a note was left on the ground. It read, 'sorry, we couldn't make it here, there is asbestos leakage in this coliseum, if you faint, now you know why. We regret that we wont be able to meet you, sorry. We have enclosed $20 for a consolation, it should get you a hotel. Signed, Professor Bob Hamilton and Myto.' "well that's weird" says Ash.
Misty was thinking about something, even though her recent memories were erased, since she hadn't told 'Bob' what she remembered, she still remembered more than she should. She watched the scene play over and over and her mind, a lifeless body on the ground, Ash's. and each time she remembered, a huge surge of emotions went through her. Sadness and remorse, her best friend in the world, dead. She was glad that didn't really happen and was probably a dream… a very disturbing one. "Wow, I got a killer headache…" says Ash.
I wonder why. The end Or is it?
