C. Cowboy: Hi there, we made it through the intro and the plot will slowly start to take off now. *Note* this story will probably will be to Time Of Destiny as The Empire Strikes Back was to the Star Wars Trilogy. So in other words, this bad boy is only the second part of my THREE PART MASTER PLAN, HA, HA, HA, HA!!! But anyway, hope you like it!
CHAPTER 2: MISTY'S NIGHTMARE
Misty slowly woke up and looked around and found herself in what looked like a cell. Pikachu was by her side with a very sad look on his face. "Pikachu where are we? Where's Ash?" When Misty asked the second question Pikachu's cheeks sparked with anger. Then the door swung open and a figure around her size, maybe a little taller, wearing a Team Rocket uniform, but his face was hidden in shadows. Pikachu jumped in front of Misty protectively, "Pi ka pika KA PIKACHU!!!" (I won't let you touch her, YOU TRAITOR!!!) Pikachu then began to power up for the Ultra Shock. The Rocket just laughed and pulled a gun and shot the little electric mouse. "CHAAAA!!!" He yelled out in pain as he fell and the Ultra Shock bubble faded. "PIKACHU!! NOOO!!!!" Misty cried as she picked up Pikachu's lifeless body, "Once my Boyfriend gets here, he'll make you pay!" the Rocket laughed again and began to walk out of the shadows, "What are you talking about, Mist? I 'm already here!" Misty's heart stopped, it couldn't be who she thought it was, could it? "A-A-Ash?" the Rocket then walked out in the open to reveal that it was in fact Ash. "Ash? W-w-why?" Ash just let out an evil laugh; "I want to be the best, and by any means necessary!" Ash then pointed his gun at Misty, "And I won't let anyone stand in my way. Not even you." He said as he pulled the trigger.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!" Misty yelled as she jumped in her bed. Misty looked around and saw she was back in her room in the Ketchum house. She looked over and saw that Togapi was still asleep in his crib. "It was just a dream." She said as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes, "More like a nightmare." She then pulled herself out of bed and changed out of her pajamas. She walked down the stairs and on into the kitchen, where Mrs. Ketchum was preparing breakfast. Misty then helped herself to a glass of orange juice. "Has Ash gotten up yet?" Misty asked as she took a sip. Mrs. Ketchum smiled proudly, "He left out before sunup this morning, said he wanted a few good hours of training before breakfast!" Misty spit the orange juice out in shock, "WHAT????" Mrs. Ketchum giggled, "I was just as surprised when I found this note on the refrigerator." Mrs. K. then handed her the note.
Dear
Mom and Misty,
I know this might come as a shock, but I got up a little
earlier then usual to get some training in. I know Misty, "Ash, you'd sleep in
half a day on Dooms Day!" but you know what they say, 'there's a first time for
everything'. I should be back in time for Breakfast.
Love,
Misty was staring out in space, "Wow, He really isn't playing around this time!" Mrs. Ketchum smiled, "You know as well as I do that when Ash puts his mind to do something, he won't quit till he does, by any means necessary!" Misty shuttered at that phrase. Mrs. Ketchum saw this and asked, "Misty dear, what's the matter?" Misty just blushed a little and smiled at her, "Oh nothing, just had a bad dream last night, that's all!" Mrs. Ketchum was about to ask more about in when they heard the front door open. They both looked up as they heard part of a conversation.
"Pi Pikapi, pi Chu pika!" (Come on Ash, I said I was sorry!) Ash walked in the kitchen. His hair was wet and his clothes were not completely dry, the salty water stained his shirt made it looked like he had been sweating a lot. Ash was about to argue some more when the two noticed Mrs. Ketchum and Misty. They both had stars in their eyes and stared at Ash. Ash and Pikachu were now getting nervous. "Oh, Ash, I had no idea you were that committed!" Misty shrieked happily. "That's my baby! The next Pokemon Master!!" Mrs. Ketchum exclaimed. Now Ash and Pikachu were down right scared! The two giddy females grabbed Ash and forced him down in the seat. "Can we get you anything, you've been working so hard!" they said in unison. Ash was now on the verge of panic, "OK!!! WHO ARE YOU, AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY MOM AND GIRLFRIEND???" Ash exclaimed as Pikachu jumped from his shoulder to the table," Pikachu Pi Pika! Pika pi kachu!!" (It's gotta be Team Rocket in disguise! I'll make um blast off!!) Pikachu said as he thundershocked Misty and Mrs. Ketchum. The two screamed and fell to the ground. They then pulled themselves up to the edge of the table and glared at the little electric mouse. "Pika kachu Pikachu!" (Guess there the real thing after all!) Pikachu was then knocked off the table by Misty's mallet.
Pikachu finally came to, and saw that someone had moved him to the couch. He looked up and saw everyone eating breakfast. Pikachu ran in and jumped to Ash's shoulder and glared at Misty with the old 'I'll get you for that' look on his face. Misty smiled, "Sorry, Pikachu." Misty said as she handed him a bottle of ketchup. Pikachu chirped happily and took the bottle. All was forgiven.
"This morning Prof. Ivy wanted us to come over and help her with some things." Mrs. Ketchum said as she handed Ash his third serving. "Cool, maybe I can battle Gary!" Misty rolled her eyes, "Is that all you ever think about?" Ash smiled "What can I say, I want to be the best!" Misty gulped as he said this and then got up from her seat. "I-I'll go start getting ready to go." She then walked out of the kitchen and back to her room. Ash looked puzzled at his Mom, "Was it something I said?"
C. Cowboy: Well another chapter down. I know it's kinda slow right now, but it will start to heat up in the next few chapters.
Was Misty dream just a nightmare… or a premonition? BTW, do
you remember Fate, the Ninja guy from Team Rocket mentioned at the end of
T.O.D.? He'll be making another appearance in the next chapter. I'm still debating
on who to have him eventually turn out to be. All I know is that I want it to
be a main character, but I'm open to suggestions! Happy Trails!
