THE SECRET OF THE GS BALL
Part 2-Two Pokémon Alone In The World
By PinkScyther
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Pokémon, 'coz juice makes you feel alive!!! ...don't ask.
I was so off my head on sugar last time I set it in 2002. And I made Keyara say thousands instead of millions. Oops.
Oh no! The other Pokémon have fallen victim to the curse! Why hasn't Pikachu? And more importantly, what's he gonna do?
Chikorita! Stop! I prepared to Thundershock her, but suddenly her expression changed in mid leap. She flopped to the ground right next to Ash.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but then Chikorita got up. I held my breath, hoping that she wouldn't attack Ash again.
Her expression was a mixture of confusion, pain and, I couldn't believe it--fear. She seemed to be fighting an inner battle.
No, not Ash! Not Ash! she cried.
I ran over. Are you alright, Chikorita? I asked.
I don't wanna attack Ash! she said. Then she seemed to recover herself. Fuzzy? What're ya doin'?
I was going to ask you that same question, I answered. Secretly I was relieved that I wasn't the only Pokémon who hadn't gone crazy. Are you okay? What happened?
I... I dunno. I felt all weird, y'know, I like, suddenly wanted to kill Ash! I wanted to run away and be wild again... and... No! I don't wanna kill Ash! I don't wanna kill Ash!
Chikorita broke down and actually started crying. I caught her as she fell and held her.
My eyes narrowed. This was all that stupid GS Ball's fault. But the anger quickly gave way to fear. What would we do? Two Pokémon... against the rest of the Pokémon in the entire world?
Chikorita started to calm down. Suddenly, we both realised the position we were in. We looked at each other for a second and then sprang apart.
Before either of us could say anything, we became aware of our friends, the Pokémon. I looked at Ash. He was unconscious. I looked back at the Pokémon. They were preparing to attack again.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
Screams came from the tree. I looked up.
Oh no! We forgot about the flying Pokémon!
Herakross and Zubat were in the tree, attacking Misty, Brock and Keyara.
Move it, Fuzzy! yelled Chikorita. I spun around and saw that the Pokémon were charging again... led this time by Togepi!
Chikorita headbutted me out of their way.
No! Ash'll be killed!
I'll stop 'em! Chikorita got off me and stood between Ash and the charging Pokémon.
No Chikorita! You can't stop all of them!
Just watch me!
I was torn between Chikorita and Ash. They were both my friends, even though Chikorita didn't think that way. But if I tried, I could only hope to save one of them.
I shocked Ash in the hope that he'd wake up.
"Chuuuuuuu!" It didn't work. "CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Ash still didn't stir. There was no time to try it again. I made a decision. I didn't know if it would work, but I had no choice.
Look out, Chikorita!
I shoved her out of the way and stood in front of the Pokémon.
"CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" I Thundershocked them as hard as I could. They stopped dead.
What are you doing, Pikachu? asked Onix angrily.
You can't kill Ash. Or Brock. Or Misty. They're your Trainers!
That isn't the way it should be, said Vulpix. Don't you remember the orders of our Great God, Mew?
Shouldn't it be Goddess? asked Chikorita.
Everyone ignored her.
But you can't kill your Trainers! They're your friends!
They all looked taken aback.
He's going against the orders of Mew! cried Bulbasaur.
Pikachu, if you dare oppose Mew, we will have no choice but to kill you as well, Onix told me. You are our friend. Don't make us do this to you.
A noise behind me. I turned, and saw that Ash had finally woken up. He said nothing, but watched all the Pokémon warily.
Onix, can't you see that this is wrong? I pleaded.
There is no time left, Pikachu, he answered. Look! The human wakes. Make your choice now.
No. I won't help you kill Ash, even if it means going against the orders of Mew.
Then we have no other options. I am sorry it had to be this way, Pikachu. You were a good friend, until you became unfaithful.
Ash jumped up. "You can't kill Pikachu!" he cried.
That's right! yelled Chikorita, jumping up next to him.
Chikorita? You too? said Squirtle.
I took advantage of the pause. Come on guys, run!
Ash, Chikorita and I took off.
CHARGE! cried Onix, and they began chasing us.
"We gotta get back up the tree!" said Ash as we ran.
You climb the tree. We'll be fine. I told him.
"No, Pikachu! I can't leave you two to be killed!"
Fuzzy's right Ash! Climb the tree!
Ash gave in, and as we ran past the tree he turned suddenly and raced up it. The Pokémon kept chasing us.
"Tog tog togi!" squeaked Togepi. "Togi togi prrriiiiii!"
Onix understood immediately. The human has escaped us, he said. But I believe we should take care of the unfaithful ones first.
3rd Person POV
Back in the tree, Ash watched Pikachu and Chikorita. He was disturbed suddenly as Herakross attacked him.
"Waah! Herakross, leave me alone!"
"Ash!"
"Misty? Where are you?"
"Over here!"
Ash looked around, and then he noticed Zubat furiously attacking some leaves. Behind them, Misty, Brock and Keyara were holding the branches together to sheild themselves.
Ash climbed over to them, fending off Herakross's repeated Horn Attacks, and hid behind the branches.
"Why aren't Pikachu and Chikorita attacking us too?" he asked.
"It seems Pikachu has a special bond with you, Ash, which has prevented him from falling victim to the curse," answered Keyara.
"And you know that Chikorita has a crush on you," added Misty. "Maybe that's why she's not attacking."
"Well, whatever the reason, we have to save them! The other Pokémon want to kill them!"
"Ash, we can't get out of the tree. The Pokémon also want to kill us," reminded Brock.
They all winced as both the flying Pokémon crashed into the sheild at the same time.
"But I can't just sit here and let Pikachu and Chikorita be killed!" he protested angrily.
"You won't be much use if you get yourself killed too!" retorted Misty.
Ash said nothing. He clenched his teeth and turned back to the chase.
Pikachu's POV
We couldn't run for much longer. But we couldn't stop either.
I had a sudden brainwave. Head for the lake!
What?
The lake!
Why hadn't I thought of it before? There was a lake not far from the campsite. And not all of the Pokémon could swim.
But Goldeen's in there! She'll attack too!
Better than having all the Pokémon after us, I replied.
We raced towards the lake. But as we got to the water's edge, Chikorita tripped and fell. She lay on the ground, stunned, as the Pokémon came closer.
I was already up to my waist in water. I turned and waded back towards Chikorita.
My foot caught in a piece of weed. I struggled to free it.
The Pokémon were coming! I had had to get free!
Chikorita, wake up! I yelled. She stirred. The Pokémon were nearly on her! The weed snapped and I stumbled forward. I picked up Chikorita and swam back out with her on my back. She opened her eyes and looked around dazedly.
It's Goldeen! she cried.
I craned my neck to look behind me. Sure enough, there she was. Goldeen was much faster than me in the water, especially carrying Chikorita. I turned and swam for all I was worth, but Goldeen was gaining on me. I couldn't put Chikorita down, she was still to dizzy to swim. I gave it all I had, but Goldeen was only inches behind us.
Suddenly, something big and grey loomed before me, and I nearly crashed into it. A rock! I struggled onto the slippery surface and put Chikorita down.
Goldeen crashed into the rock, and then started circling back. She was going to try and jump up and knock us off the rock. And further out were the other Water-Types.
Quickly, I stuck my tail in the water, and then sent a Thundershock through it into the water.
Goldeen, Staryu, Poliwag and Squirtle were shocked by the attack. They fainted and lay still in the water. It would buy us some time.
I heard a sound behind me. I turned and saw Chikorita standing up.
Thanks,... Pikachu.
I nearly fell off the rock. She hadn't called me Fuzzy!
Don't thank me just yet, I told her, looking back towards the angry Pokémon on the bank.
TO BE CONTINUED...
I love writing this! It's really fun! But what's even more fun is reading your reviews, hint hint.
