A Second Chance
Ash, Misty and Tracy continued their journey. But they encountered a girl. "Are you a Pokémon trainer?" asked a mysterious girl.
"I am!" Yelled Ash with excitement.
"Perfect!" She said.
"Then let's battle."
Note: Some people skip the battles in fanfic, but this battle doesn't only have fighting, it also has some talking. So it's pretty important.
__________________Begin Battle____________________

"Only one Pokémon each!" She said.
"Alright, go Pikachu."
"Go poké ball." Coming out of the girls
poké ball was a Pikachu.
"It's a girl Pikachu." Said Tracy.
"Pikachu thunder!" Yelled Ash.
"Agility" The girl Pikachu used agility and
Avoided the attack. She ran and jumped
on Pikachu. "Thunder bolt!" Yelled Ash.
Pikachu used thunder bolt and shocked
the other Pikachu. She fell and stood
back up. "Counter" She ran and jumped
on Pikachu's head, then used thunder.
When Pikachu fell, the girl Pikachu hugged
him. "What is she doing?" Asked Ash.
Pikachu got back up and used thunder.
The girl Pikachu never stood up.

"You idiot!!!!" yelled the girl.
"Why did you do that?"
"What did I do?" said Ash.
"Ash? Don't you get it?" asked Misty.
"Get what?"
"That Pikachu liked your Pikachu." said Misty.
"They'll make a good couple." said the girl.
"My name is Lena, what's yours?"
"I'm Ash."
"And I'm Misty."
"Briiii." said Togepi
"Hello, my name is Tracy."
Lena called Pikachu back in her poké-ball.
"You're pretty good, but she's not my best Pokémon. Maybe will have a Pokémon battle again someday." she said.
"You know, I want to be a Pokémon master!" she continued.
"Me too!" yelled Ash.
They started talking about Pokémon.
"Ash, Lena and their Pikachu could go on a double date." Said Tracy. Misty became jealous after hearing what Tracy said.
Tracy realized what he did right away and waved his hands outwards close to his chest(One of those anime things again, when their eyes are shut and they're sweating a little.), and said,
"I was just kidding. Hehe..." Misty frowned and said,
"Well it's not funny." Lena and Ash went to Misty.
"We're going to the Pokémon center, coming?" Asked Ash.
"Yeah, I'll go. I need to heal my Pokémon." Said Misty.
Lena frowned slightly.

At the Pokémon center...

Misty's feeding Togepi, Tracy is drawing and Lena's talking with Ash.
"So what are you doing tomorrow?" Asked Lena.
"Uh.." Ash looked at a map.
"Well, tomorrow we're traveling to..."
"Traveling tomorrow? Why don't you stay." She said interrupting.
"I guess I could for a couple of days. Is that okay?"
He asked Tracy and Misty, whose face is red.
"Why do you have to ask them? Aren't they following you?"
Lena pointed out.
"Why would we follow him without a very good reason?" Said Misty. "Why do you follow him anyway?" Ask Lena.
"Well, I want to meet Professor Oak, and his lives at his hometown, pallet town." Explained Tracy.
"That's a good enough reason. How about you Misty?"
"Well..." She said trying to remember.
Suddenly, a blast blew up the wall. Coming out is Team Rocket carrying Pokémon with a bag full of Poké-balls.
"There's are chance to capture Pikachu!" Yelled Jessie.
"Prepare for trouble."
"And make it double."
"To protect the world from devastation."
"To unite all people from in are nation."
"To announce the evil of truth and love."
"To extend the reach to the stars above."
"Jessie."
"James."
"Team rocket blast off at the speed of light."
"Surrender now or prepare to fight."
"Meowth, that's right!"
"Team rocket!" Exclaimed Ash.
"Go Weezing!"
"Go Arbok!"
"Weezing! Gas attack!"
Weezing filled the whole room with smog.
"Cough, cough. Go Scyther! Blow the smoke away."
Scyther came out and used his sword dance.
"Arbok! Poison sting!" Scyther knocked all of the needles away.
"Pikachu! Thunder bolt."
"Pika.. Chuuuuuuuuu!" No effect.
"You should have known by now we always use shocked proof." Said Jessie. "Look Jess, two Pikachu!"
Lena's Pikachu was out at the moment.
"Go Hinoarashi! (A.K.A Cindaquil)" commanded Lena.
Coming out is a Pokémon from gold and silver, it's a fire type. "Hinoarashi, Flame-thrower!"
Hinoarashi melted the plastic suit.
"Pikachu! Thunder bolt!"
"Pi... Pika... Chuuuuuuuuu!"
Both Pikachus used their Thunder bolt.
The thunder zapped the balloon causing fire that reached the engine and then... BOOM!
"Team Pocket's blasting off again!" Yelled Jessie, James and Meowth.
"You two make a good team." Said Nurse Joy.
Misty was angry, as usual. Lena was looking at her.
While walking outside, Lena asked,
"Maybe tomorrow, are Pikachu could have a play day?"
"A play day?" asked Ash
"Yeah! A day where are Pikachu play."
"What do you think Pikachu?"
"Pika..." Pikachu hid beside Ash's leg.
The other Pikachu moved trying to find his Pikachu.
"So...?" Asked Lena
"I guess so..."
"That's great!"
Her Pikachu smiled
At the play day in the park...
"Oh! Look! They're having so much fun!" exclaimed Lena.
The girl Pikachu followed Ash's Pikachu, while he tried to escape.
"Uh... Pikachu looks like Pikachu is scared."
Ash, Misty, Tracy and Lena where sitting on a bench at the park.
"Why are you following Ash anyway?"
"Well..." Misty was thinking. It was so long ago.
"Now I remember, because he own me a bike!"
"Ugh... I was hoping you don't remember.," said Ash.
"That's all?" said Lena.
"You could have my bike. I don't need it."
"Your bike? They're pretty expensive, you can't just give them away."
"My cousin owns a bike shop, but he's closing, so he has a whole bunch."
Lena showed them to the shop, and gave misty a new bike.
"I told you that I'll give you your bike back." said Ash.
Misty didn't have a reason to follow Ash anymore.
She was thinking that maybe she made the wrong choice.
Maybe she should go with Hiroshi.
She phoned him, and said she'll be going there through boat.
Ash frowned while asking, "You're going with that Hiroshi guy?"
"Yeah, he said he's going to join the Johto league."
"I'm going to take a boat to there." explained Misty.
"Well, I'll be going, bye."
As she ran tears rolled down from her eyes.
"Bye Ash..." she whispered.
She camped out because the boat was pretty far.
She had made a fire, and her bike was leaded against a tree.
And Togepi was sleeping.
Ash secretly followed her. He was thinking with Pikachu.
He was throwing rocks into nowhere.
He told the others that he'll take off for a while.
"Pikachu."
Pikachu lightly attacked a Spearow.
"Pikachu why did you do that for?"
A huge group of Spearows and a couple of Fearows chased them.
As soon as he saw Misty and her bike, Ash realized what Pikachu did.
He ran, jumped on her bike and started pedaling.
"Hey! That's by bike."
"I'll return it... Someday."
Misty realized what he did, and smiled.
The next day, Misty followed Ash yelling the same thing that she always says.
"Ash, you still owe my for my bike!"
This time, Misty smiled, thinking what Ash done for her.
Ash Smiled after.

The End
