Chapter 7: Accidents
By: Winkipinki
Ever since Tracey and Melody became a couple, Ash didn't
feel very comfortable for the fact that he did not confess to Misty yet, and
Tracey's ahead of him.
"Since when did you two start to love each other?" Misty
asked curiously.
"Umm…." Said both Tracey and Melody, embarrassed from the
question.
"What about you and Ash?" Melody shuns the question.
"There's nothing between us!" Misty blushed.
Ash didn't even dare to answer Melody's question. He felt
too miserable to do anything in this moment. He feels like as if he's a loser.
"Don't worry, I'm sure everything's going to be fine."
Tracey comforted him, the guy felt sorry for him.
********************
The next couple of days were peaceful. Melody and Tracey
started dating, while Ash and Misty did nothing to improve their relationship.
Ash still did not have the guts to confess to her. Although Pikachu cannot
talk, he knows something upsets his master.
'How come I don't have the courage to say it?' Ash
thought, he was pretty confident in Pokemon battles, but this one really is a
hard one for him.
He decided to take a walk, he passed by the Police
Station. There, he met Officer Jenny and other cops.
"Have you seen these three criminals?" Officer Jenny
asked, she pointed to the three criminals on the flyer. Ash looked over it,
recognized that those three are Team Rocket.
"No, did they steal somebody's Pokemon?" Ash wondered, he
just remembered that those three trouble makers didn't appear for a long time,
like they always did.
"They stole a Gloom from a girl in the nearby town. If you
see them, please contact us at once." Officer Jenny said.
'I thought they would never successfully steal a Pokemon,
I guess they really manage to get one this time.' He thought.
Pretty soon, he saw Misty running towards him, "Hi…Misty."
Ash said, it was the first time they had conversation during these days, they
haven't talk to each other for days.
"I came to tell you that lunch is ready…" Misty said, she
didn't even look at him in the eye.
"Misty, listen..I.." Ash finally has the courage to
confess.
A truck passed by and suddenly loses control, heading at
Misty's direction. Ash quickly gets Misty out of the way by clutching her
sleeve, pulling her away from the truck. Officer Jenny ran after the vehicle by
her motorcycle.
"Misty, are you okay?" Ash asks with concern.
"Yeah…but…" Misty is frightened. Ash put his arm over her
shoulder to comfort her.
Ash is worrying about Misty, since he cares more about her
than himself.
They went to the Pokemon center promptly since it's the
closest hospital nearby.
"Nurse Joy! Misty needs treatment immediately!" Ash
yelled.
"The injury is minor, a bandage will cover the wound."
Nurse Joy said.
"But she's hurt!!!" Ash shrieked.
"It's all right, Ash, you don't have to overreact…" Misty
said.
"But…" Ash continued.
"Your reaction shows that you care about her a lot." Nurse
Joy smiles and goes back to work.
"I…" Ash blushed.
********************
The next day, Ash receives a phone call from the police
station. The cops found the drivers who caused the accident. They were Team
Rocket.
"What!? I can't believe it! They actually did it?" Ash
asked amazingly.
"Yes, it seems like they were escaping from us for
stealing. They will go directly to jail. Please inform this matter to Misty."
Officer Jenny said.
Ash puts the phone down and walks to Misty's room. As he
knocks on the door, there's no answer.
"Misty! Are you there?" Ash worried. He found out that the
door is unlocked, so he went in without asking.
"Misty?" Ash asked. But Misty wasn't in the room. A
question came in Ash's mind, 'Where could she be?'

Pollà Would
you prefer Ash to get hurt(badly)? Or Misty gets her minor injury like in this
chapter?
I was going to make Ash to be badly injured instead
Misty's minor injury. But I decided that it is always been seen in fanfics,
lest it would be boring to readers. My apology to Team Rocket fans, I'd like to
add Team Rocket to this story and there's no other way. I guess it would be
more original to illustrate them as bad guys.
P.S.: If you are not satisfy with the result in this
chapter, I would make changes in the next chapter, to end differently. Only one
chapter until the story's finished! Please be supportive and review! REVIEW
PLEASE!
