The Power of the Heart.
Part 9.
Disclaimer: Nupe. Don't own Pokemon. Sorry to disappoint ya... ^^
(In Ash's POV...I think...)
We were on what seemed like an endless ride to nowhere. All of the sudden it started to rain. Rain turned into a downpour.
"Can't you make this thing go faster?" I said, impatiently, my hair becoming sopping wet.
I could hear the pokemon grunt angrily. Rhapsody reached down and stroked its head. She looked back at me, slightly angered. "It's doing the best it can."
I looked up and sighed, tears welling up at the corners of my eyes. Rhapsody's eyes softened a little. "You're worried about your friend."
I nodded, silently, the rain pounding down on my body. "Yeah..."
Rhapsody turned around and murmured something. Her wet hair was blowing behind her and onto my face. "Uhhhhh... Can you do something with your hair? It's...hurting me..." I asked her.
She giggled and snapped her fingers. Her hair was now tied up in a bun on top of her head. "Better?"
I nodded. "Much." We were both silent for the next couple of minutes. She seemed content enough. I was starting to feel antsy. I started to wiggle around.
She shifted and sighed. "Do you mind...?"
"Do I mind what? My own business? Sometimes..."
She shrugged and shut up. (AN: Boy, do I LOVE it when Suikun shuts up! Hardly ever happens though...I gotta count my blessings...lol.)
Suddenly I noticed the rapidash (AN: How in the world do you spell that? I'm too lazy to go look it up... *yawns*) stopped abruptly. I looked around. "W...w...what's going on?"
Rhapsody gulped and slid off the rapidash. "I...I...I don't know." (AN: Hee hee...s...s...stutter stutter!)
Her eyes danced about the trees, which were sprouting a green-colored mold. "I feel the presence of something."
"It's probably just a caterpie. Come on. We've got a find Mis..." I was interrupted by a howl. My eyes widened.
Rhapsody jumped back. "Hello? WHO'S THERE?!?" She shouted.
Something gigantic moved through the trees. Even in the downpour, you could hear it's huge body move. In a flash of lightning a tree was set to flames. The massive monster howled again.
Rhapsody's eyes shot toward the fire. She mumbled something under her breath that sounded a lot like "rain too." I cocked an eyebrow in wonder, but I then remembered the fire. I looked at the tree and jumped off the rapidash. The flames were rapidly spreading.
Rhapsody seemed to know what to do right away. She looked up into the sky and shouted as loud as she could, "SUICUNE! I NEED YOUR HELP TO DEFEAT FIRE AND FLAME! WATER POKEMON OF THE DEEP... UNITE AS ONE! SUICUNE! EMERGE!!!"
All at once, several dog-like water pokemon jumped out from nowhere and began smothering the flames with their water attacks. The flames were everywhere and, eventually, all of them were gone. As soon as they had appeared, the pokemon disappeared into the night.
I glanced at Rhapsody who was shivering and on her knees. She mumbled something again and stood up. She calmly walked over to me. "Are you all right?" She asked.
"Fine. You?"
"I'll live." She replied as she mounted back onto the rapidash, who was having trouble settling down.
"Uhhhhh...Rhapsody? Where did that giant monster go?" I said breathing heavily, "...and what was that thing?
"It's gone, and its identity is nothing for you to worry about. Remember, if you hear or see lightning again, tell me, got it?" She asked.
I nodded and was about to open my mouth, when...
"No more questions. We don't have time for that anymore. We have to concentrate on the path ahead of us." She told me.
I sighed and nodded, a ton of questions filling my head. I did (for once) manage to keep my mouth shut. My eyes slightly drooped.
"Ash, keep your eye out. We haven't seen the last of that creature." She told me, noticing my need for some shut-eye.
I nodded and yawned. "I'm awake."
"Good. Keep your eyes on the skies." She giggled. "I'm rhyming! Cool!"
"Uhhhh... yeah." I said, not amused. Just then I noticed a dark creature flying through the shadows in the sky. Sparks of lightning started to flicker violently.
Rhapsody's eyes narrowed as I pointed towards the sky. She tensed slightly. "It's back"
End of Part 9.
HA! CLIFFHANGER!!! Am I evil, or what? Hmmm...Let's play the guessing game... Who is the creature in the story? Does anyone see where I'm going with this? Some of you sharp-eyed readers may see a trend of...let's just say... "mysterious" creatures... Some of you might have figured out what the "mysterious" creatures are... *hint hint* You already know ONE... Heh heh heh... Ooooooooo... It's so cold out here... Guess what? I bought 3 CDs today! *does a happy dance* Heehee... *sings* You're a mean one... Mr. Grinch... Lalalalala...
