I do not own Pokemon nor shall I ever own Pokemon but the story is mine so don't steal it
Chapter 1
One question changes it all
Ash Ketchum stood on the raised platform. Pikachu stood in the arena, breathing heavily. Pikachu was weak and his trainer and he knew that the next attack would knock him out. The crowd was perfectly silent, quiet enough to hear a pin drop. They waited to see whether the Alakazam would faint. The Alakazam belonged to a trainer with scruffy blonde hair who stood on the opposite platform. The Alakazam swayed a little and began to fall. He hit the ground and the referee waited for a few seconds before he made the greatest announcement of Ash Ketchum's life.
"Alakazam is unable to battle, the winner of the match is Ash Ketchum with his Pikachu. Ash Ketchum is now the ultimate master of Pokemon in the masters league" he announced in a professional voice. The stadium was silent for a few seconds before it erupted into screams, laughter and overwhelming applause. A reporter with long blue hair with a high ponytail rushed over. She was about 15 or 16.She wore a pair of black trousers, a pale blue short sleeved sleaved shirt and a white tank top underneath it. She had big brown eyes
"Hi, my name is Natasha Merep, I'm trying to become a professional reporter, would you mind if I asked you a few questions?" she asked, her pretty brown eyes pleading .Ash thought there was something so sincere about her. Something about her that reminded him of his friends when they declared what they wanted to be. The hope and the determination but the way she would never hurt anyone to get what she wanted This also showed her good heart. There was no name for this so Ash decided to just note it as clear eyes, clear of malice and dangerous determination and filled with hope and dreams.
"Two minutes" he told her quickly. He leapt over the bar of the platform and landed with a thud but sprang to his feet. Pikachu was bounding towards him with energy coming only from his victory. Ash was about twelve and so he was still young. Pikachu in his last stride leapt with all his might and landed in Ash's arms. A mob of well wishers swarmed the arena. Ash was suddenly surrounded by people congratulations, he scanned this mob for a certain group of people. Brock was in the crowd and so was Tracey, the redhead was there too. He thanked everyone and made his way towards them.
"Ash I have so much to tell you about now" Misty cried when he reached her. He was about to say something when he saw Misty looking at him with genuine eyes the clear eyes look, which reminded him of the reporter Natasha. He spun around to see she was still up on the platform. She was leaning on the rail watching the crowd, looking sad. You could almost see what was going through her mind. Natasha felt like a failure. She felt that maybe her dream wasn't to be she wasn't aggressive enough to get the story. Brock followed his look.
"What a knock out! " Brock cried watching the way her long blue hair fluttered slightly in the wind. Her shirt also flapped and her eyes were downcast.
Misty was smiling widely for Ash when she felt someone grab her by the waist and drag her out. The crowd was so loud and people were so frantic no one heard her screams for help or even noticed the young girl get dragged off. The crowd just saw it as more room to squish into. Ash grabbed someone's hand ,not looking just assuming since it was Misty next to him two seconds ago it was her hand.
"He touched me, oh my god" a girlish cry sounded. Ash turned around and saw some blackhaired girl in the spot where Misty was. The girl was delighted that he grabbed her hand.
"Misty!" he yelled loudly. He stood on tippytoes trying to see the familiar eye catching hair .He couldn't see anything. He rushed over to the platform to where Natasha stood, her face lit up when she saw him.
"Your back?" she asked.
"Have you seen Misty?" he asked without thinking. He forgot that not many would know who Misty was. The way a Pokemon trainer must know about Pokemon Natasha knew about this, as she had done her research.
"Misty, she's a um a gym trainer of Cerulean city, right?" she asked hopefully.
"Yeah have you seen her?" Ash asked .
"She's the redhead right? um I saw red head leaving the stadium with some guy "Natasha answered.
"Ash relax, Misty probably didn't see the point in trying to talk to you when they were all these people trying to, she's more than likely back at the house" Tracey told him.
"Hi I'm Brock" Brock said in a goofy voice to Natasha, who wore an expression of surprise and fright .She was standing in a position of backing away if she wanted to
She turned her attention to Ash.
"So you in a mood for your first interview about being the ultimate Pokemon master?" she asked.
Ash liked the sound of that and for some strange reason he knew that he and Natasha would be friends. He always tried to make friends with people who had clear eyes. It was a very rare quality in people.
"Sure " he answered, grinning.
"By the way, my friends call me Tash" Natasha told them.
"And you consider us friends?" Tracey asked.
"Anyone who will help a stranger for no reason only from the goodness of they're hearts is a friend to me" Tash answered.
"Yeah lets make a strong friendship" Brock cried in his goofy voice. Tash took a step back.
"Anyway" Ash answered ignoring Brock.
"So what do you want to now?" Tash answered pulling out her Dictaphone.
"Well right now all I want to do is sleep" Ash answered, grinning. Pikachu nodded and yawned.
Tash smiled and continued asking questions. She even asked Brock and Tracey a couple of questions and she asked the Pokemon of they're opinions .
"Could you make a copy of that?" Ash asked. Tash looked at him curiously.
"My friend who isn't here but probably find it amusing what with the Pokemon an all".
"Sure Ash"
"Let go of me "Misty screamed. They were deep into the forest now.
"Now the boss will be proud of this" a male voice answered. Butch stepped out from behind a tree.
.Misty was sitting on the ground, carefully guarded by her masked kidnapper
.Cassidy stepped out from behind the other tree.
"No motto today?" Misty asked.
"Quiet, we have no need for a motto today not with the plan we have" Cassidy told her.
"Well you don't need me interupting" Misty said beginning to get up. The kidnapper growled at her and she sat down quickly.
"You promised me the money. You know how hard it was to get her, a big crowd, a friend of the winner of the match. I should be charging more" he replied.
'Here" Butch said ,casually. He tossed him a small bag filled up with notes.
"Good luck kid" he muttered and disappeared into the darkness of the forest"
Misty watched him leave with anger in her eyes.
"Save you glares" Cassidy told her. Butch pulled out a pokeball and a Raticate appeared from the red beam.
"Raticate hyper fang on this" Butch ordered giving him a bag filled up with water. He did so and water spurted out from the large bite marks. Misty watched this demonstration terrified.
"Now try anything funny, that bag will be your skin understand?" Butch demanded. The bag lay flat on the ground.
"Crystal" Misty said, quickly and nodded her head. Cassidy walked ahead of the group.Raticate glared at her all the time. He walked along her side. Butch walked behind them bringing up the rear.
They came to the sea.
"This is the way off the island" Cassidy announced.
A flapping noise alerted them. In a flash of orange and brown Misty was snatched up by someone on a flying Pokemon.
She smiled relieved to see Butch and Cassidy shrink, the higher up they got from the island.
"Cutting it a bit close aren't you" she joked. Her eyes widened when she noted the most important thing about this rescue. It wasn't Ash
"Heya Misty?" Brock yelled into the attic of the house. It was a small house and Misty wasn't that easy to lose. She wasn't here.
"She could have gone out for a breath of fresh air" Tracey suggested to ash.
"Yeah I mean what are the odds of us actually losing someone?" he joked nervously but he feared for her safety.
A few years later.
Tash not about twenty tucked a strand of dark blue hair behind her ear as she looked into the camcorder.
"Today's the day when the legendary master Ash Ketchum celebrates his victory by maintaining his title. He travels around to each gym and challengers try they're luck out, sadly however today also brings back painful memories for him and those he knows. Today was also the day one of Ash Ketchum's dearest friends disappeared. Misty Waterflower the fourth sensational sister, gifted with talents for Pokemon training disappeared today. Lost in the crowds and never seen again, the police have given up hope on trying to find the girl aged twelve when she disappeared. The Cerulean gym is the only gym that doesn't participate in the celebrations for obvious reasons"
"Hi Tash " a cheerful voice said from the door. Ash stood there with a grin.
"Hi I was just making a recording"
"Cool, can I watch it?" Ash asked.
"I'm not really sure if that would be the bets thing to do" Tash answered carefully but Ash had already snatched the tape off her and shoved it in the vcr. He grinned.
"Me a legend that is so cool" he said proudly
"Hi Daisy" Tracey said into the telephone. Each year when this day came around Either Tracey or Brock or Ash called up Cerulean Gym just to make sure they were OK and keep an eye out for them
"Hi great to hear from you, how is everyone?" Daisy asked
"We're all good"
"Does Ash think he can defend his title this time round?" Lily asked,.
"No problem!" Ash nearly yelled into the phone, triumphantly.
"I remember when we first met you, the little squirt who our little runt hung around with. We knew you were good but we never could have dreamed you were that good, Our mom told us that you can't just see talent it comes from within" Daisy said, her voice getting husky. She placed a hand over her mouth and walked away, Violet hugging her
"We're sorry bout that, today's always been an emotional day at out gym," Lily explained, looking down.
"Do you want us to visit?" Ash asked with concern.
"No, we wouldn't want to disrupt the festivities, besides you would confuse all the kids here who have told already that Ash Ketchum won't be making a stop" Lily protested.
"Don't they mind?" Brock asked. Whenever they made this call Brock always pushed the urge to flirt with them to the furthest regions of his soul. He owed to Misty and it would mindblowingly inappropriate to do so.
"Well they do at first but when they understand they more or less keep quiet, today we like to remember the three of them" Violet told them.
"How do you remember them?" Tash asked.
"We talk about the old times, the things Mist used sat when she was younger and the things we used to pull and generally remember the good old days, then usually cry, order pizza's and cry and talk, today is a very emotional day for us," Daisy said.
'"We should let you guys go anyway, thanks for calling" Lily said.
"Bye" everyone said and the phone screen went blank.
"Funny isn't it, to some news reporter or a police officer, Misty and Mom and Dad were just statistics just some writing in a file, to us they were our world"
Lily leant against the wall, slid down buried her face in her knees. Daisy sat on the step of the stairs and Violet feel to her knees in front of the room.
"I'm going down to see officer Jenny" Ash announced Ash did this every year since she diappeared.
Officer Jenny looked up when she heard a small crowd walking in.Tracey,Brock,Ash and Tash and Pikachu stood at the desk.
"How can I help you Ash?" she asked.
'Just wanted to know whthr there was any information about missing peoples since last year?"he asked hopefully.Jenny frowned,
"Ash I'm sorry,its like she vanished in a puff of smoke,if she had passed on then we would know but this case is completely in the dark but I assure you if we ever and I mean ever hear anything about this we will inform instantly"
"Thanks anyway"
