I Hate You!! – Chapter two



Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon, or anything to do with them. The characters aren't mine, except for Chris, and maybe someone else. Please don't sue me, because to my knowledge, I've done nothing wrong.



Note: Chapter two is at hand! Misty is being a bia-bia, and Ash is a wreck. What has Chris done? It'll get a lot better in this chapter, and longer too. I usually don't make em' so short, but I did it all in one sitting, so I was tired. AAMR is off tha chain, even though it doesn't look that way right now. And, Lastly, please review!! Bye for now!







"How could she? What did I ever do to deserve Chris coming into my life? What did I ever do to deserve having Misty almost say 'leave and don't come back'? I really don't know what to do…yeah…sure…I know, but it'll be a few days, I still have some things to do here…well, I have my reasons…no it's not because of her. I told you already…yeah…see you soon…bye." Hanging up the phone, I went over to a bench to rest my feet. I'd made up my mind. If Misty wanted to turn on me, I'd get right back at her. Chris can have her, and I'll be happy elsewhere. I'd gone over the thought in my head many times, but in the end, there is no alternative. I'd be losing to Chris, both our battle and Misty, but I'd be able to leave this heartache behind, and move on. I was alone outside the Pokemon center, and Misty was still inside waiting for Chris' hand to be healed. I should've fractured his skull while I was at it, but that would have upset Misty. I don't care about Misty anymore though, do I? Weather I do or don't is beyond me now, because I'm moving on with my life, going back to the Orange Islands where my troubles could be carried away by the sea.

"Ash, why don't you come with us to get a drink?" Now she was already treating me like I'm the intruder. I swear, I'm hopping the next boat out of here.

"Sure." Hey, why not get a free drink in the process? But they'll probably leave me to pay it. Chris should pay, because it's customary for the loser to buy the drinks. Then he'd tip me for the hand. Sure enough, Chris walked out of the center with his hand in a nice cast. I couldn't help but marvel at my doing. "Next time, it'll be his jaw." I thought to myself as I followed Misty and Chris. Stopping at the Pokemon Mart, we ordered two milkshakes and one beer. One guess who the beer belonged to? It was like a picture, I should've just stuck both of their straws in one cup. I wanted to cry/vomit. One thing went my way though, I didn't pay. We were walking back to the Pokemon Center when a loudspeaker came on

"All passengers boarding the twelve o' clock boat to the Orange islands please board now." I turned to say bye to Misty, but guess who was talking to her and preventing me from doing so?

"To hell with it." I said loudly as I turned and ran to my boat. I didn't look back as I ran down the pier, taking the first steps of my third new life, one that, maybe, wouldn't end in a flaming wreck. I boarded the ship and received my room number. Locating my room, I entered and fell down on the bed, face first. I needed to get up, but I didn't want to, so, I slept a little nap.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Ash! Wait, where are you going?" Misty called after Ash just as he ran to the boat, S.S. Angelica. She didn't know why he was running off like that, that wasn't the boat to Cinnabar.

"Don't worry about it, Misty. We're better off without him." Chris was trying to soothe her, but it wasn't working too well. Misty knew why Ash was leaving, and she had a feeling that he wasn't coming back.

"At least I'll know where to find you." Misty said quietly as she turned and left to wait on the boat for Cinnabar. Chris followed at her side, but he was in actuality glad that Ash was gone. To him, he was just another obstacle in the way of getting Misty. Not much was said between Chris and Misty on the dock of the ship for Cinnabar.

"Misty, what's the matter?" Chris asked, in a sweet voice.

"Nothing Chris, it's just…Ash has always been there, and now he's gone. I don't know what I'm going to do." She started to sob slightly, and Chris fumed. Ash had won, again.

"It's okay, Misty. I'm here." He'd be close to her even if it was in her grief over someone else. So, Misty sank into his chest, crying her eyes out. All of the memories flashed back through her head as she wept. His, goofy smile, and the way that he used to be so naïve. His stupid hat that she'd stolen many times in a manner of flirtatious play, and how he used to be the best at Pokemon battles. She was never scared of Team Rocket as long as Ash was there, using his strong Pokemon to fight.

"Was that all that Ash ever was to me, a bodyguard?" Misty thought silently as she still cried.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was awakened by a loud crash. It sounded like an impact, but I wasn't sure. I jumped out of my bed, and ran for the outside of the ship. I knew the Orange Islands like the back of my hand, and we were close. I placed my hands on the rail, and looked further out. About that time, another crash sounded, and nearly pitched me overboard. Three crashes in succession added to the first, makes four, and no one had a clue what was going on. Judging by what I remembered, the closest island was Shamuti. If we stopped there, we'd surely be welcomed. My attention was torn from the sea as the speaker came on, "Attention all passengers! It would appear that an unknown object has struck our ship repeatedly, and we will sink in a matter of minuets. Please board the lifeboats immediately!" That was it, the unsaid fear of everyone that steps onto a boat. How could my life get any worse? With no wish of dieing, I ran to the nearest lifeboat, and climbed in. It was starting to lower, when I heard something. A child's cry was ringing throughout the ship. No one was paying attention though, only scurrying around for a lifeboat.

"I'll regret this." I said verbally as I climbed out of the boat to find the lost child. Searching throughout the ship, there was no sign of a child. I climbed into every room, deck, hall, and anywhere else a child might hide in fear. I had given up, and was on my way out of the second deck when the ship lurched and threw me off of the stairs. I hit a wall and injured my back somehow. It didn't mater though, for I could get it looked at later, if I got out of the ship. So, I tried again, this time making it to the first floor. I ran through the hallways, trying to find an exit when I saw the wall of water chasing me from behind. Running like a madman now, I bolted through every corridor I could see. The tsunami of water was still chasing me like I'd stolen its wallet, when I reached the door to the outside deck. Bursting through the door, I looked frantically for a boat. They had all been taken earlier. Suddenly realizing my fate, I thought of only one thing, Misty. She was the reason that I got onto this boat, but it wasn't her fault. I had broken my accord, and looked over the edge of the rail when I boarded the ship. There I saw her crying, for me.

I let it go, and held onto my anger long enough to fall asleep, but I still remember the face that she wore. It was one of being heartbroken, over me. But she'd done the same to me. She practically killed me with words in the Pokemon center, but she still cried when I left? What kind of way is that to treat someone? And she was speaking of me needing pointers for how to treat girls? I had let these feelings get the better of me, and I didn't get off the boat. Little had I known back then that that decision would be my undoing. Turning to look at the angry flood of water that chased me up the remaining end of the ship, I saw only death. But looking over the stern of the ship, I saw a small chance to live. So, being the risk taker that I am, I inhaled a deep breath, and leapt over the side.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This is breaking news, live from Shamuti Island. Just a few moments ago, a luxury ship, the S.S. Angelica, sank about ten miles off the coast of this island. The lifeboats have been recovered, and the roll call has been taken. Only one person is proclaimed missing. Ash Ketchum, age seventeen was the only one not accounted for. The search and rescue parties are departing now to attempt to find Ash, and we wish them luck."

Three Days Later…

"…In other news, today at approximately three P.M., Ash Ketchum, the missing person from the sinking of the S.S. Angelica was pronounced dead. The rescue teams have ended their search, saying that 'no one can survive for more than three days in the sea'. Now, we have the latest reports on…"

Misty didn't even blink. Her Ash had left her, and she'd never be able to see him again.



Post Note: Wheeee! What's the deal here? Is Ash really dead? Will Misty end up in the nut house, or happy with Chris? All of these answers will be added, and more if you do me a favor. Please Review! I PROMISE the next chapter will be longer. I'm just tired. Keep it real, people.
