Hey there!

Here is the next part to this fic, please review!

I don't own Pokemon, but I do own... my Pokemon CD!

Translation of PokeTalk- [].

Oh, yeah, the guy who reviewed and asked about the balance of nature thing and Pokemon, the
thing in Pokemon 2000 never happened. Nothing will happen with these legendry Pokemon being
captured.

Part 4 of "Mistakes Will Happen"
"The Battle"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Misty sat inside the Pokemon Center, Selene next to her. Growlean was lying in the sun,
and Aurora was asleep at Misty's feet. Ash was giving a speech outside, and it seemed like
the entire island was listening to him.

"Misty, up for cards," Selene asked.

"Sure, how about Spades," Misty said.

"Great, and girl, don't worry about Ash. No one stays long on this island, unless you were
born here, or have an important job here like we do. He'll be gone by the end of the week.
Ash is like the tourists," Selene said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ughh, I hate giving speeches," Ash said as he sat down on the couch.

"Cheer up Ash, you have the next 2 months to yourself, you can spend them anyway you want to,"
Brock said.

Misty walked in from the nurse's lounge, "How much longer are you guys going to be here?"

"I'm not sure," Ash said.

"Mist! Joy gave us the rest of the day off! Wanna go down to the beach?" Selene asked.

"Yeah, Aurora, Growlean, wanna hit the beach," Misty asked.

Both Pokemon nodded.

"Lithe, growl, lithe lithe! [Yeah, more sun bathing!]," Growlean said.

"Vapor [Water fun]," Aurora said, as she stretched.

"I swear Growlean, only Meowth sun bathes more than you," Misty said.

Selene turned to the two guys and the Pikachu on the couch, "Would you like to join us?"

"Will there be girls in bikinis," Brock asked, very hopeful.

"Of course. Although, most around here have boyfriends," Misty said.

"Do you have a boyfriend Misty," Ash asked.

Misty shook her head no and then went to the room she and Selene shared to get changed.

For some reason, unknown to him for the time, Ash felt very relieved when Misty shook her
head no. But for the life of him, Ash could not figure out why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ash and Brock had been waiting for 10 minutes before Misty and Selene walked out.

Selene was the first one out. She wore a dark green bikini that was strapless. Brock,
needless to say, was in 'Cute-Girl Mode', but Ash wanted to see Misty in hers.

Misty came out about 6 minutes later and Ash felt his breath catch in his throat.
She looked gorgeous. She wore a light blue bikini, with straps, and her hair had been
tossed in a ponytail. Around her hips, she had put on a wrap that matched the bikini.
Ash, needless to say was speechless, and followed the girls to the beach, dumb struck.

'Now I know how Brock feels,' Ash thought to himself.

Brock cackled to himself, 'Ahhh, hee hee hee!" (AN- Oh dear, I think Brock has now lost it)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Misty and Selene were playing volleyball, and Ash and Brock had gone swimming.

"Those waves are getting perfect for surfing," Selene said, and then called out her Kadabra
and told it to teleport to the centers and get her and Misty's surfboards.

Kadabra had brought back the surfboards and Ash and Brock had stopped swimming for a while.

"Misty, why don't you give your water Pokemon a break in the ocean," Ash suggested.

Misty smiled and nodded.

Ash and Brock got quite a surprise when all these water Pokemon came out.

"Ash, Brock, meet Golduck, Quagsire, Politoed, Kingdra, Marill, and Suicune. You remember
Starmie and you've met Aurora here," Misty said.

All the Pokemon glared at Ash and Brock, then looked at each other and headed into the water
to play.

"Why don't we let everyone out," Misty said.

"I'll let everyone out but Zapdos," Selene said.

"Everyone OUT!" Misty and Selene said at the same time.

"Now meet Charmander, Cyndaquil, Ninetails, Flareon, Igglypuff, Blissey, and Dratini,"
Misty said, and then continued, "You've seen everyone else in battle."

Selene introduced her Pokemon to them, and most rested out in the sun.

"Ash, Brock why don't you let some of your out," Misty suggested.

"I left all my Pokemon buy Pikachu at the Center," Ash said.

"So did I," Brock said.

"Oh, well, Misty, wanna go surfing?" Anna asked.

"Misty, surfing? This ought to be good," Ash teased.

Misty looked about ready to retort, but instead followed Selene out to the water.

"You'll eat those words," Selene said.

Ash watched Misty ride the wave. She was perfect.

"Did those words taste good," Misty asked.

Ash opened and closed his mouth, then opened it and closed it again.

"Is your name Ash or Magikarp?" Misty asked, joking.

"Hey! That wasn't funny," Ash retorted, but he couldn't help noticing how good she looked
in the bikini, or how graceful she was in the water.

"Ash, she was just joking," Brock said.

"I challenge you to a Pokemon battle, Pikachu go get my Pokemon," Ash said.

"ASH!" Misty exclaimed.

"I wanna see how good you got," Ash said.

"Ash, please wait, let's enjoy our time at the beach first," Brock said, trying to
stop a battle before it happened.

"Ash, listen to Mr. No Eyes," Selene said.

"I have eyes, I challenge you to a battle," Brock said.

"I agree to that challenge," Selene said.

"Selene!" Misty shouted.

"Misty, I have to do this, Kadabra get Mr. No Eyes PokeBalls," Selene said.

Pikachu and Kadabra got back at the same time, and Selene and Brock choose to go first.

"Six Pokemon a piece and no time limit." Selene said and Brock nodded.

"I choose Donphan," Brock said.

"Chikorita," Selene said.

"Donphan, Tackle," Brock said.

"Chika, dodge and use Razor Leaf," Selene said as Chikorita fainted Donphan.

"Donphan, return, Dugtrio go," Brock said.

"Chika, return. Tangela go!" Selene said.

"Dugtrio, Magnitude," Brock commanded.

"Tangela, use Sleep Powder," Selene said as Tangela got Dugtrio to sleep.

"Good, Vine Whip." Selene said, and Dugtrio fainted.

"Golem go!"

"Return Tangela, and go Bulbasaur!

"Bulbasaur, Vine Whip," Selene said.

Golem was fainted and Brock then used a Rhyhorn.

"Return Bulbasaur and go Weepinbell," Selene said.

The result of that was Rhyhorn being fainted by Razor Leaf.

"Crobat go!"

"Weepinbell return, go Pikachu," Selene said.

"Again, what is with all the Pikachu?" Brock asked.

"Pikachu, Thunder," Selene said.

Selene had taken a moment of Brock ignoring the battle and fainted the bat.

"Shuckle go," Brock said.

"Go Snorlax," Selene said.

"Shuckle, Tackle," Brock said.

Both Misty and Selene had a hide a laugh when the Shuckle just bounced off the stomach
of the Snorlax.

"Snorlax, use your Hyper Beam!"

That move finished the fight. Selene had fainted all of Brock's Pokemon.

People passing by stopped. The two girls were the Mistresses of their respective types,
not many Pokemon Trainers asked them to battle, most came to them for advice.

"Six each, and no call backs." Misty said, and Ash nodded.

"I choose Bulbasaur," Ash said.

"Ninetails, go, dodge whatever he throws at you and then you Fire Blast," Misty said.
Ninetails easily fainted Bulbasaur.

"Totodile, go," Ash said.

"Dratini go," Misty said.

"You have a Dratini," Ash said.

Misty sweatdropped, "Dratini, quick! Use Thunder."

Okay, Water against Thunder, you do the math.

"Totodile return, go Pikachu," Ash said.

"Quagsire, go." Misty said.

"Pikachu, Thunder," Ash said, going for an easy victory...

But to his surprise, Quagsire was not even affected.

"Quagsire is Ground and Water, with an immunity to electricity. Use Earthquake now!"

Pikachu got injured, but was not yet out.

"Pikachu, quick attack!"

"Quagsire, Strength!"

One more attack, and Pikachu would be done for.

"Quagsire, use Earthquake one more time!"

And with that, Pikachu was out of the match.

"Don't worry about Pikachu, I'll heal him at the Center," Misty said, her voice with concern
in it.

"Charizard, go!"

"Aurora go, Quagsire take a rest."

Aurora was more than happy to be going against the guy that caused her Mistress so much pain.

Charizard was attacking Aurora restlessly, but the Pokemon never gave up.

"Aurora, quick, use Surf!"

Aurora used Surf, and it knocked Charizard pretty low on the half range.

"Aurora quick attack!" Misty said, hoping for the best.

Charizard was knocked off balance and fainted, but not before fainting Aurora also.

"Aurora, it's okay, you did your best." Misty said, and handed the Pokemon to Togetic to heal.

"Kingler go!"

"Espeon go!"

"Kingler, Bubble!"

"Esp, shake off those Bubbles and use Bite!"

After a few more attack changes, Espeon was victorious.

"Tauros go!"

"I choose Igglypuff."

"The baby form of a Jigglypuff!" Ash said, laughing.

The battle seemed close to being lost for Misty, but then...

A white light surrounded Igglypuff and it evolved into a Jigglypuff.

"I knew it! Jigglypuff Sing!" Misty commended and the Pokemon did as her Mistress said.

"Great, Double Slap then Dream Eater!"

With that, Ash had lost the first battle he had been in since the Leagues.
He knew Misty had trained her Pokemon well.

He looked at Misty, who right now was saying thanks to her Pokemon and hugging her new
Jigglypuff.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That Night at the Center...

Ash and Brock were discussing how bad they had lost, Selene was asleep, and Misty was lost in
a book.

"Misty, how come Growlean and Aurora never let you leave their sights," Ash asked.

Misty looked up from her book then at Growlean, on the floor by the couch, and Aurora, curled
in the middle of Misty's half bent legs.

"I found Growlean not long after I left you and Brock. Her old trainer had abandoned
her when she was about 2 weeks old. I found her, and took her too the nearest Center.
What I think inspired her deep loyalty to me was the fact I never gave up on her, she
attacked when I found her, and after she was healed, but I never gave up on her."
Misty said, and petted Growlean.

"What about Aurora?" Brock asked.

"Aurora was an Eevee at first, and the sickest one of the litter that her mother had.
I took her in and raised her using some of the techniques you taught me Brock. I also never
made her evolve, she choose the Water Stone I had sitting on the table." Misty said and petted
Aurora.

"Can I try to pet Aurora?" Ash asked.

"No, her fins will cut your hand. She has to know you before she let you touch her."
Misty said.

The clock rang out 11 o'clock and Misty and her Pokemon headed off to bed, leaving the
guys to do whatever.
