Ash had a shock that will never ever be recovered. His own
mother was right in front of his eyes. Queen Delia certainly looked
the same, but Ash had a rotten feeling that he had never met her
before. She is only someone who looked like his mother, but not
his mother. Ash's memory of his mother was a kind and gentle
mother, not a wicked hearted old witch! She is not his mother!
She's an imposter! Queen Delia would certainly not lock people
into cages and had them suffer all these times. Especially that
they're friends of his. If they're Misty's friends, then they are also
his friends. The prisoners looked all beat up and whipped and
tortured. Who is this witch acting as an imposter for his mother?
And who is the guy on that Pidgeot? He sort of had an image that
he battled him before… Oh yes! Gary Oak. It's a tough battle how
his Pikachu defeated Gary's Eevee with some luck. What's he
doing here and what does he had to do with the imposter of Queen
Delia? All these questions filled Ash's mind now and all his brain
came up with was nothing, blank, white, no answers.
Misty was just as shocked as Ash was, and her mind isn't
very differently engaged from her boyfriend. She knew that Queen
Delia doesn't act like herself at all, and Ash must be thinking that
she's an imposter. Misty wanted to tell Ash this, but had kept quiet
in this tense situation. Accept the fact, Ash. She's your mother and
she changed. How much Misty wanted to tell Ash this! But she
kept calm, and see what's Queen Delia's first move.
Queen Delia was on Ash's usual cavalry, and she glared at
the servant girl who's holding Ash's hand closely and tightly. That
twerpy red head must be the one who is causing of all these
problems. She looked innocently back at her, and her ocean blue
eyes looked right back at her own brown eyes. She seemed to be
very close to her son in some relationship. She had a short evil
laugh. She just couldn't wait until Gary and Cap. Brock catches
these rebellions and execute them in front of all the citizens. These
will be the consequences of capturing and kidnapping Prince
Ketchum! She can't wait. How come Ash doesn't understand? All
she is doing what is good for him!
Queen Delia scanned the group of traitors of the country. Just
6 people had caused her so many troubles. And princess Erika…
what the heck is she thinking? She is going way too far this time,
and she isn't acting like herself. Delia will not give her a death
penalty in order to keep up with a friendly relationship with
Celadon Kingdom, but there must be a punishment for this naughty
princess.
Cap. Brock, her highness's close elite guard, and also the
captain of Pallet, rode close to her. He looked around, and they're
all weak. He leered at all of them. Pathetic fools… Gary Oak can't
even handle 6 little children, and they're causing him so much
trouble, wasting many resources to catch them. He would crush
these rebels like a little, helpless bug, and then rescue the prince.
He doesn't understand why her highness needs him to destroy this.
He had been in much worse situation, like how 3 years ago, he's
alone in the battlefield, and surrounded by 30 enemy's men, and
he's out of it safely, without getting a scratch. Fight against these
little kids? This will be a piece of cake.
A chilly gust of wind blew across the field, as the wild
Pokemon nearby fled and evacuated the area, for a bad feeling of a
mighty battle will soon begin.
"Ash… what are you doing? Staying with these dangerous
national criminals. You should come home, with me and then we
should punish these weaklings…" said Queen Delia, talking to
Ash.
"Mother… You've changed. You would never do this in the
past. What's wrong with you? Is something controlling you?"
asked Ash in reply.
"Obviously not. Why, I ask you the very same question.
What's wrong with you to behave in such a weird way? Come with
me now. And you rebellions, if you surrender now, I may spare
you from getting a death penalty. Princess Erika, you know your
behavior is certainly not what a princess should do."
Ash gasped, and stepped up quickly and stretched out his
hands as a sign to protect them.
"I'll never go with you and abandon all my friends. Misty,
Erika and everyone,"
"Ash…" whispered Misty behind. This must be hard for him
to do such a brave act in front of his own mother and this troop.
They're totally outnumbered and have no chance of winning. Only
care and love could do such a thing.
"You gave me no choice…"
Queen Delia drew out her sword and pointed forward, and as
his highness gave everyone the command to strike, Brock released
his Onix and Graveler. Gary attacked from above, and the rest of
them charged. Rampaging Tauroses (whatever the spelling for the
plural of Tauros is, you know what I'm trying to say) and angry
cavalries charged at the group.
Pikachu nodded to Murkrow as the dark type Pokemon flew
up high with Pikachu at the end of the rope, flying high into the
sky. Pikachu then used a Thunderbolt and shocked the troops down
below, slowing their charge attack. Pidgeot's Quick Attack had
busted their simple plans as Murkrow and Pikachu fell straight for
the ground, into the middle of the Pallet troops. Ash then headed
straight for the charging troops for his beloved Pokemon
"Ash! It's too dangerous!" said Lilly, but Ash didn't take the
advice and continued to run forward. Misty then decided to go with
Ash and try her best to cover him. After all they've been through,
she's not going to leave Ash behind.
"Ash! I'll be right behind you!" and Misty left off with her
Starmie to Ash.
The fierce Onix dived right for Erika and her Gloom
courageously as if there's nothing to fear even if Gloom is a grass
type, which is Onix's greatest weakness beside water. Erika stood
side by side with her grass Pokemon, patted Gloom and the weed
Pokemon already know what to do. A light yellowish powder was
released from Gloom's flower, as the rock snake dived straight for
the ground for cover from Stun Spore.
"Can be anywhere! Beware, Gloom!" said Erika as she
looked around her. All was quiet until there was a rumbling sound
under the earth, as Onix dug its way out and tackled Gloom
fiercely up into mid-air. As Onix is ready to give Gloom the
finishing blow, Princess Erika returned her Pokemon and fled to
the Waterflower sisters' sides.
Starmie was in front of Ash and Misty, using Bubblebeam
and much variety of water attacks to clear a way for Ash to
Pikachu. Ponytas and Rhyhorns jerked as they saw a water
Pokemon heading their way and were hesitating to attack or
retreat. However, another type of common cavalries Dodrios and
Doduos, and no fear against the water and charged through the
water, jumped up high and launched Tri-Attacks. Starmie's core
flashed, as its master commanded a Light Screen and shielded
them from Tri Attacks. Now after they passed them, it's a straight
road to Pikachu. Ash picked them up as the Pallet troops were
gaining up on them. They were then forced to retreat and hide.
Ash held Misty in his arms and led her behind a broken wall
to hide. Misty sat down and panted, catching her breath. They
wondered how the others are doing, and will they be caught too.
And what is Queen Delia going to do with them if they're all
caught. Ash looked up the dark cloudy sky, as the sunlight was
completely covered by the thick clouds.
"Where are we anyway?" asked Misty. They were just
running straight without thinking where they're headed. Ash
looked around the junkyard. Just broken houses and walls, with
some broken barrels and tools lay across the dusty ground.
"I guess… we're in the Viridian District."
Queen Delia scouted around. There's no trace of her dear son
or that scoundrel Misty. Just dead trees everywhere, and the
sunless sky shown no light to the lifeless forest. A gust of wind
blew as dust blew up. Cap. Brock, on his Onix, then looked around
and saw nothing beside more dead trees and the edge of the
Viridian District.
"My Highness, the prince and the servant girl aren't in sight.
They may have escaped into Viridian District." Reported Brock.
"Great! We'll follow them right in there!" said Gary who no
longer flew on his Pidgeot and had walked along the rest. As he
walked forward, a sword was pointing up his throat and stopped
him from moving any farther. He looked up and he saw Brock
dangerously pointing his sword towards him.
"Don't you know anything! The Viridian District is one of
the most dangerous places in the world. Queen Delia may get hurt
in there by those bandits. You must consider the safety of the
Queen!"
"Gary is right. This may be the only chance to chase them
back. After they escape from Viridian, it'll be extremely difficult
to find them. Who knows if they decide to pass the continent
border through the Viridian Gate to Jhoto… We must hurry!" And
with Gary Queen Delia rode off towards Viridian District. Gary
looked at the captain of guards and lightly laughed at him. Brock
coldly stared right back.
"This guy is up to no good…"
Ash and Misty settled down beside the river. The orange
dawn sky was fading away as little stars started to take over the
sky. It was almost dark, and they could still hear guards very far
away. Queen Delia was still on their tail, and they heard nothing on
Erika and Misty's sisters. Misty took a sip from the river.
"Sorry I dragged you and your sisters into this." Said Ash.
Pikachu was safely in his arm, taking a nice long nap after all of
today's actions and adventures. Murkrow had gone off to find
something in the forest to eat. Ash didn't know what Pikachu did
to Murkrow, but seems like they got themselves a new Pokemon
traveling buddy.
"That's okay Ash. We wanted to come. It's not really
anyone's faults." Replied Misty with worried about the others.
"Hey, there's no more sounds of searching troops now."
Noticed Ash and Misty tried to listen, just some wild Pokemon
moving around the bushes. Guess all of them head back to Pallet.
For safety, they decided not to come out yet till later at night.
The sky was dark, as Pikachu and Murkrow were enjoying
some fruits. They walked out back into the open, and not a single
man was in sight. Ash climbed up the roof of a broken building
and scouted around. He noticed no campfire smoke. Guess his
mother decided to give up.
"Guess they're all gone now." Said Ash in relief.
"Wrong as usual!"
Ash and Misty looked around as hidden troops came out and
surrounded them. Misty backed up a little as spearmen came closer
and closer, step by step. Then Queen Delia accompanied by Gary
and Brock, stepped out of the dark.
"Guess you fell into our trap." Said Queen Delia, as then
sounds of explosions happened. The troops looked around and see
what's happening.
"You all fell into our trap!" said a mysterious voice as
smokes appeared throughout the whole place.
"Who is it!?" demanded Gary, as 2 figures came closer to
them.
"To infect the world with devastation!"
"To unite all people in every nation."
"To denounce the goodness of truth and love!"
"To extend our wrath to the stars above."
Brock recognizes these lines. He couldn't believe that they
decided to attack a royal member of the great Pallet kingdom. They
are totally surrounded by these robbers and thieves.
The faces of a woman and a man were visible out of the
smoke. The woman was totally dressed in black with a big red R in
the middle of her uniform of some organization. While the man
was in a similar uniform and his voice was as screechy as dead.
"Cassidy,"
"Butch,"
"Team Rocket, circling the earth all day and night,"
"Surrender to us now or you'll surely lose the fight!" And
their Raticate pops up in the end and stood in front of them.
"Who are they Ash?" asked Misty as they were totally
surrounded by men dressing in black uniforms.
"Team Rocket, an organization of robbers who ruled
Viridian," said Ash as an Ekans dived for him and he dodged the
bite attack.
"Correct Prince Ketchum and we'll here to take you," replied
the female leader Cassidy. Ash wasn't in shock and it was quite
within expectancy. Brock then stared at Gary for giving them so
much trouble. He knew this would happen. It's his entire fault if
the queen and the prince are hurt against these robbers.
"Raticate, Super Fang," Raticate charged down and headed
right for Ash. Queen Delia gasped and called him to watch out. But
then Raticate was too fast to outrun it. Then Misty pushed him
aside and took a direct blow. Raticate missed and charged with a
tackle attack this time but was tackled aside by the mighty Onix.
The Rocket's Pokemons start to charge and so the group was
forced to split up into 2 groups.
Gary watched the chaos from above. Curse these lowlife
Rockets! If they haven't appeared, Prince Ketchum will be caught
and he'll gain the foolish queen's full trust. Then he could move
onto his plan. Now he must wait for another chance to strike and so
he took left and flew off into the dark sky.
Cap. Brock had lost the queen in the confusion, and wind up
back at the entrance of Viridian, where some soldiers were
guarding the prisoners. Princess Erika was tied to the tree, eyes
closed, resting. The soldiers were up and ready when they saw
Brock's return, but had an odd feeling since the queen wasn't with
the captain. Brock returned one person, panting from all those
running.
"What's wrong Captain?" asked a commander.
"A rebellion stroke and I had lost the queen and the prince.
We must make haste and enter the district to rescue the queen!"
stated Brock as Erika listened with increasing curiosity. As Brock
took all the troops into the home of robbers, Erika started rubbing
her tied hands to the tree, and the rope was slowing wearing down.
"Just a little further," said Erika as she struggled to free her
hands.
Later, she stopped when she can touch one of her Pokeball,
and released her Gloom and cut the ropes of everyone away.
Together, they entered the district to find Ash and Misty.
It started to rain softly outside, as Ash, Misty and Queen
Delia was in this little room with a roof to hide from the rain. They
could see from a far distance a Rocket Venomoth flew to and fro to
find them. Ash placed Misty down near a corner, as her bruise is
getting worse and in some part of her, started to bleed. Queen
Delia wasn't use to this kind of slums and refused to rest in such
dirty places, and only stood near the doorway. She eyed how her
son treated her as if she didn't exist, and put all the attention to that
Misty twerp. He really cares for her.
"Are you alright?" asked Ash worriedly, and Misty just
nodded. He took a peep outside and viewed the area. It's safe for a
while. Queen Delia kept what she wanted to say in herself, but she
had to say that Misty's acting skill is pretty good, but she was too
good and saw through young Misty's trick. It's not very obvious,
and now Queen Delia knows why Ash was protecting them. His
son never faced these tricks, unlike her about 20 years ago…
"Why did you take the hit for me?" asked Ash worriedly
again, as his love was almost unconscious now. She just tried to
get up, but was too weak to move. She just lightly whispered,
"Because I love you…" and she felt unconscious.
Ash then lightly and carefully picked her up. He with Misty
must return to the castle for the medicines and Norse Joy back
home will heal her back to health. Then with Pikachu, he rushed
into the dangerous world outside. Queen Delia called after her son,
but seeing that there's no reply, she quickly followed.
All goes well at first, but Cassidy and Butch stood in front of
Ash, stopping their way. Raticate and Primeape came in the scene
to battle Pikachu. It'll be hard for Pikachu to handle both at once.
He will be also harder to dodge attacks if the Pokemon aim their
attacks at him instead of Pikachu, since Misty in his hands limited
his movements. Raticate tried to tackle Pikachu but it's worthless
effort as Pikachu jumped out of the way and stamped on Raticate
before landing.
Primeape then used a Mega Punch, which Pikachu also easily
evaded, but then was sneak attacked by Raticate. Pikachu got back
up and continued to battle. Pikachu used a Thundershock but then
Raticate dug underground. As Pikachu had no time to worried
about the underground mouse, he battled Primeape who attacked
very offensively and dangerously. As Pikachu was about to attack
Primeape and finish it off with a Thunder, Raticate popped up from
the ground and lifted Pikachu high up, who was then grabbed by
the fighting Pokemon and thrown to the ground.
"Pikachu!" shouted Ash as he ran to Pikachu's side.
"Finish it off!" said Cassidy and Butch in unity. Their
Pokemon used their strongest attacks and charged for Ash. Ash
then covered Pikachu and closed his eyes, waiting for the blow.
Then Onix came and tackled them away. Cap. Brock and
Princess Erika arrived and finished the other Rocket soldiers off.
"Raticate got fried!" said Cassidy.
"So are we!" said Butch in return in his scratchy voice.
"We won't forget this! Team Rocket is blasting off again!"
and they disappeared with their Pokemon shortly after. Queen
Delia didn't want to pursuit them and decided to return to the
castle.
Short time after Misty recovered from her injuries; she was
summoned by Queen Delia to see her privately. She was thinking
of how Queen Delia will punish her for this. Execution? Banded in
Pallet forever? She don't know, but she just have to face the fact
and bravely pushed the door of the queen's room opened, had
stepped in.
No guards were in the room, and only Delia was here, facing
the window outside, gazing at the beautiful white town of Pallet
and the sparkling sea. Things were back to normal and were at
peace again. Misty bowed down before Queen Delia. The queen
didn't face her, and asked Misty several questions.
"Do you really love my Ash so much? That you'll be willing
to place his life above yours like in Viridian?" asked Queen Delia,
and Misty thought how strange of a question she was asking. But
she just answered a truthful "yes."
Then there was a knock on the door and Misty turned around
to see who it was. Ash then stepped forward and was surprised that
Misty was also here.
"What did you summon me for, mother?" asked Ash, as
Misty stopped eyeing Ash.
"If Misty dear really feels this way, I have no rights to
complain…"
'Huh? Dear?' thought Misty, but remained silent.
"I tried to but I can do nothing to stop you 2. Misty, from
now on take care of Ash for me…"
Misty was a bit slow and didn't get the idea. She looked at
Ash who was trying to signal Misty to thank his mother. Misty
then was thankful for Queen Delia's action, and thanked her for
her acceptance. Peace reigned over Pallet under the control of Ash
ever after.
Many years after…
The young boy ran through the grassland, as a mighty flock
of Spearow chased him for some time now. His new Pokemon he
got from Professor Oak was injured in his hand, and he must
escape. He must find somewhere for treatment of his Pikachu.
They eventually met a dead end. The boy looked back as Spearows
continued their pursuit.
"Well, here we go!" he screamed as he jumped down the cliff
into the river.
A red haired girl was fishing near a river. She had nothing
but Magikarps so far. What bad luck! She wish for something big
and she'll capture it to add it into one of her water Pokemon
collection. Then something was pulling hard on her fishing rod.
"Hey! Ow wow, a bite! I really think this is going to be a big
one!" She pulled with all her strength and the young boy with his
Pikachu in his hand was fished out of the river.
"Nah, it's just a boy. Oh and a Pokemon! Ow… are you
alright?" asked the redhead girl.
"Yes, I'm okay," replied the boy innocently but then his
hospitality was returned in a brutal way as the girl slapped her.
"Not you! The Pokemon!" said the girl. She thought to
herself. That boy looks very familiar, as if she saw him before.
She's very sure she had never met him, yet in some points she had
seen him all the time. The young boy sat on the rock quietly,
staring at her. She's utterly familiar. And although her slap hurts a
little, her hand was very warm to him.
The sound of angry Spearows was heard as the flock of army
appeared along the horizon.
"They're back! Run!" said the boy as he put his Pikachu into
the basket, and took the girl's bike towards the Pokemon Center in
Viridian.
"Hey that's my bike!"

anyone's faults." Replied Misty with worried about the others.
"Hey, there's no more sounds of searching troops now."
Noticed Ash and Misty tried to listen, just some wild Pokemon
moving around the bushes. Guess all of them head back to Pallet.
For safety, they decided not to come out yet till later at night.
The sky was dark, as Pikachu and Murkrow were enjoying
some fruits. They walked out back into the open, and not a single
man was in sight. Ash climbed up the roof of a broken building
and scouted around. He noticed no campfire smoke. Guess his
mother decided to give up.
"Guess they're all gone now." Said Ash in relief.
"Wrong as usual!"
Ash and Misty looked around as hidden troops came out and
surrounded them. Misty backed up a little as spearmen came closer
and closer, step by step. Then Queen Delia accompanied by Gary
and Brock, stepped out of the dark.
"Guess you fell into our trap." Said Queen Delia, as then
sounds of explosions happened. The troops looked around and see
what's happening.
"You all fell into our trap!" said a mysterious voice as
smokes appeared throughout the whole place.
"Who is it!?" demanded Gary, as 2 figures came closer to
them.
"To infect the world with devastation!"
"To unite all people in every nation."
"To denounce the goodness of truth and love!"
"To extend our wrath to the stars above."
Brock recognizes these lines. He couldn't believe that they
decided to attack a royal member of the great Pallet kingdom. They
are totally surrounded by these robbers and thieves.
The faces of a woman and a man were visible out of the
smoke. The woman was totally dressed in black with a big red R in
the middle of her uniform of some organization. While the man
was in a similar uniform and his voice was as screechy as dead.
"Cassidy,"
"Butch,"
"Team Rocket, circling the earth all day and night,"
"Surrender to us now or you'll surely lose the fight!" And
their Raticate pops up in the end and stood in front of them.
"Who are they Ash?" asked Misty as they were totally
surrounded by men dressing in black uniforms.
"Team Rocket, an organization of robbers who ruled
Viridian," said Ash as an Ekans dived for him and he dodged the
bite attack.
"Correct Prince Ketchum and we'll here to take you," replied
the female leader Cassidy. Ash wasn't in shock and it was quite
within expectancy. Brock then stared at Gary for giving them so
much trouble. He knew this would happen. It's his entire fault if
the queen and the prince are hurt against these robbers.
"Raticate, Super Fang," Raticate charged down and headed
right for Ash. Queen Delia gasped and called him to watch out. But
then Raticate was too fast to outrun it. Then Misty pushed him
aside and took a direct blow. Raticate missed and charged with a
tackle attack this time but was tackled aside by the mighty Onix.
The Rocket's Pokemons start to charge and so the group was
forced to split up into 2 groups.
Gary watched the chaos from above. Curse these lowlife
Rockets! If they haven't appeared, Prince Ketchum will be caught
and he'll gain the foolish queen's full trust. Then he could move
onto his plan. Now he must wait for another chance to strike and so
he took left and flew off into the dark sky.
Cap. Brock had lost the queen in the confusion, and wind up
back at the entrance of Viridian, where some soldiers were
guarding the prisoners. Princess Erika was tied to the tree, eyes
closed, resting. The soldiers were up and ready when they saw
Brock's return, but had an odd feeling since the queen wasn't with
the captain. Brock returned one person, panting from all those
running.
"What's wrong Captain?" asked a commander.
"A rebellion stroke and I had lost the queen and the prince.
We must make haste and enter the district to rescue the queen!"
stated Brock as Erika listened with increasing curiosity. As Brock
took all the troops into the home of robbers, Erika started rubbing
her tied hands to the tree, and the rope was slowing wearing down.
"Just a little further," said Erika as she struggled to free her
hands.
Later, she stopped when she can touch one of her Pokeball,
and released her Gloom and cut the ropes of everyone away.
Together, they entered the district to find Ash and Misty.
It started to rain softly outside, as Ash, Misty and Queen
Delia was in this little room with a roof to hide from the rain. They
could see from a far distance a Rocket Venomoth flew to and fro to
find them. Ash placed Misty down near a corner, as her bruise is
getting worse and in some part of her, started to bleed. Queen
Delia wasn't use to this kind of slums and refused to rest in such
dirty places, and only stood near the doorway. She eyed how her
son treated her as if she didn't exist, and put all the attention to that
Misty twerp. He really cares for her.
"Are you alright?" asked Ash worriedly, and Misty just
nodded. He took a peep outside and viewed the area. It's safe for a
while. Queen Delia kept what she wanted to say in herself, but she
had to say that Misty's acting skill is pretty good, but she was too
good and saw through young Misty's trick. It's not very obvious,
and now Queen Delia knows why Ash was protecting them. His
son never faced these tricks, unlike her about 20 years ago…
"Why did you take the hit for me?" asked Ash worriedly
again, as his love was almost unconscious now. She just tried to
get up, but was too weak to move. She just lightly whispered,
"Because I love you…" and she felt unconscious.
Ash then lightly and carefully picked her up. He with Misty
must return to the castle for the medicines and Norse Joy back
home will heal her back to health. Then with Pikachu, he rushed
into the dangerous world outside. Queen Delia called after her son,
but seeing that there's no reply, she quickly followed.
All goes well at first, but Cassidy and Butch stood in front of
Ash, stopping their way. Raticate and Primeape came in the scene
to battle Pikachu. It'll be hard for Pikachu to handle both at once.
He will be also harder to dodge attacks if the Pokemon aim their
attacks at him instead of Pikachu, since Misty in his hands limited
his movements. Raticate tried to tackle Pikachu but it's worthless
effort as Pikachu jumped out of the way and stamped on Raticate
before landing.
Primeape then used a Mega Punch, which Pikachu also easily
evaded, but then was sneak attacked by Raticate. Pikachu got back
up and continued to battle. Pikachu used a Thundershock but then
Raticate dug underground. As Pikachu had no time to worried
about the underground mouse, he battled Primeape who attacked
very offensively and dangerously. As Pikachu was about to attack
Primeape and finish it off with a Thunder, Raticate popped up from
the ground and lifted Pikachu high up, who was then grabbed by
the fighting Pokemon and thrown to the ground.
"Pikachu!" shouted Ash as he ran to Pikachu's side.
"Finish it off!" said Cassidy and Butch in unity. Their
Pokemon used their strongest attacks and charged for Ash. Ash
then covered Pikachu and closed his eyes, waiting for the blow.
Then Onix came and tackled them away. Cap. Brock and
Princess Erika arrived and finished the other Rocket soldiers off.
"Raticate got fried!" said Cassidy.
"So are we!" said Butch in return in his scratchy voice.
"We won't forget this! Team Rocket is blasting off again!"
and they disappeared with their Pokemon shortly after. Queen
Delia didn't want to pursuit them and decided to return to the
castle.
Short time after Misty recovered from her injuries; she was
summoned by Queen Delia to see her privately. She was thinking
of how Queen Delia will punish her for this. Execution? Banded in
Pallet forever? She don't know, but she just have to face the fact
and bravely pushed the door of the queen's room opened, had
stepped in.
No guards were in the room, and only Delia was here, facing
the window outside, gazing at the beautiful white town of Pallet
and the sparkling sea. Things were back to normal and were at
peace again. Misty bowed down before Queen Delia. The queen
didn't face her, and asked Misty several questions.
"Do you really love my Ash so much? That you'll be willing
to place his life above yours like in Viridian?" asked Queen Delia,
and Misty thought how strange of a question she was asking. But
she just answered a truthful "yes."
Then there was a knock on the door and Misty turned around
to see who it was. Ash then stepped forward and was surprised that
Misty was also here.
"What did you summon me for, mother?" asked Ash, as
Misty stopped eyeing Ash.
"If Misty dear really feels this way, I have no rights to
complain…"
'Huh? Dear?' thought Misty, but remained silent.
"I tried to but I can do nothing to stop you 2. Misty, from
now on take care of Ash for me…"
Misty was a bit slow and didn't get the idea. She looked at
Ash who was trying to signal Misty to thank his mother. Misty
then was thankful for Queen Delia's action, and thanked her for
her acceptance. Peace reigned over Pallet under the control of Ash
ever after.
Many years after…
The young boy ran through the grassland, as a mighty flock
of Spearow chased him for some time now. His new Pokemon he
got from Professor Oak was injured in his hand, and he must
escape. He must find somewhere for treatment of his Pikachu.
They eventually met a dead end. The boy looked back as Spearows
continued their pursuit.
"Well, here we go!" he screamed as he jumped down the cliff
into the river.
A red haired girl was fishing near a river. She had nothing
but Magikarps so far. What bad luck! She wish for something big
and she'll capture it to add it into one of her water Pokemon
collection. Then something was pulling hard on her fishing rod.
"Hey! Ow wow, a bite! I really think this is going to be a big
one!" She pulled with all her strength and the young boy with his
Pikachu in his hand was fished out of the river.
"Nah, it's just a boy. Oh and a Pokemon! Ow… are you
alright?" asked the redhead girl.
"Yes, I'm okay," replied the boy innocently but then his
hospitality was returned in a brutal way as the girl slapped her.
"Not you! The Pokemon!" said the girl. She thought to
herself. That boy looks very familiar, as if she saw him before.
She's very sure she had never met him, yet in some points she had
seen him all the time. The young boy sat on the rock quietly,
staring at her. She's utterly familiar. And although her slap hurts a
little, her hand was very warm to him.
The sound of angry Spearows was heard as the flock of army
appeared along the horizon.
"They're back! Run!" said the boy as he put his Pikachu into
the basket, and took the girl's bike towards the Pokemon Center in
Viridian.
"Hey that's my bike!"
