Chapter twenty-six - What's going on 'ere then?
Later that night, they were all sat round a large campfire. Killa was breathing, but not as yet conscious, so Rosita sat with her. Maradonna was glaring at Kai with such jealousy and malice that even Jetstorm walked over to see how the land lay.
"Err… Maradonna?" Asked Jetstorm
Maradonna seemed to shake himself out of a trance.
"Huh? Whatwhywhenwherewhohowwhy?"
"Oh, Its only you."
"What do you mean 'only me'?"
"Oh… nothing…"
"It's your brother, isn't it?" Asked Jetstorm
"No… no course not." Snorted Maradonna
"We are alike. You and I… You would make a valuable asset to the team…" Started Jetstorm
"So, wassup guys?" Asked Ash
"Ash, you fool. Flee from the immense power of fleabittenratbags." Said Jetstorm
Ash most certainly hadn't heard all of the last word so, confused, he walked off.
"Team?"
"We'll speak again. There are too many people here."
Jetstorm stood up and walked back into the shadows from whence he had appeared from in the first place.
"So, Guys… What have you been doing so far?" Asked Kai
"Well… we've had more than our fair share of adventures…" Started Sam
"…But we've always pulled through…" Said Misty
"…And even though we didn't start out as Best Friends…" Said Sillabub
"…We've been through so much, I guess we couldn't live without each other…" said Jacob
"…We can't live WITH each other neither…" Said Topaz glaring at Andre
"…And its because we've been through so much that…" Said John
"…I guess we grew up a lot…" said Jig
"…We had to…" Said Brock
"…Even Brocko is in control of himself now…!" Said Jacko
"…To say we ALL grew up would be wrong…" Said Atomic
"…Yeah. Ash hasn't grown up one bit…!" Said Jacko.
"THAT'S UNFAIR…!" Said Ash
"…I guess it is… a little, 'unfair'…" Started Ember
"…Yeah, s'pose… Jemima hasn't grown up at all either…!" Said Andre.
"WHY I OUGHTA…!" shouted an outraged Jemima. She scrabbled to get up, but Zak pulled her back down again. She bit him and jumped through the fire.
"NOW YOU COME HERE AND SAY DAT TO MY FACE!" Said Jemima
Andre stood up to his full height of 5'2". He looked down his nose at Jemima. She stared fiercely straight back into his eyes with malice.
"Jemima hasn't grown up at all either!" Said Andre precisely. She boxed his ears.
"NEVER…" SLAP "…EVER…" WHACK "…EVER…" SCRATCH "…SAY…" SMACK "…THAT…" PUNCH "…TO…" KICK "…ME…" THWACK "…AGAIN…" SMASH "…Okay?" Jemima said sweetly.
Andre gulped and rubbed his now black eyes.
"…Not grown up exactly, but become stronger is certainly a phrase you could use…" said Zak
"…Is Killa okay?" Asked Tracey
"DOES SHE LOOK OKAY?" Snapped Rosita.
"…Oh… I'm sorry… Just… I'm a little tense about it… Sorry I snapped…" Apologised Rosita.
"I've gotta sketch this!" Shouted Tracey and Scribbles in unison. They both set to work on a sketch of Killa and Rosita.
"Well, at least they'll be quiet for a while!" said Tyra
Pikachu was prodding Killa's cheek, so Tracey and Scribbles drew him in too. Misty let Togepi waddle over to Rosita, but Togepi was too scared of Killa to go near her. So, of course Tracey and Scribbles drew Togepi in on Rosita's lap. Pikachu was suddenly overcome with sadness. It started to cry and so did Togepi. Togepi was whimpering on Rosita's lap, so Rosita passed it back to Misty, where it sat, blubbering. Tracey and Scribbles began drawing this unfolding scene, page by page. From nowhere, what looked like a wave of gold dust, accompanied by an eerie feminine voice with a heavy accent, which echoed around the gorge.
"Thou left us, now thou hast returned to us and we are eternally grateful for thou coming of age young one. The tears of the Pokémon are to revive thoust everlasting spirit."
With that, the wave poured over Killa and there was a sound of something breathing out. Killa opened one eye slowly. She opened the other and blinked heavily a few times. She spoke. Only it was not her voice. It was the voice that had echoed around the gorge before.
"...The terrible storm 'The Winds of Water' it destroyed all but a few Pokémon and in their sorrow, their tears revived the lives of those lost in the storm. But there are no Pokémon tears today. Only a terrible storm that will swallow up any who dare to venture into it…" she said.
"STORM? SWALLOW UP? VICKY'S IN A STORM! Awh…." Moaned Jemima
Tracey quickly drew this new scene. Killa sat up and shook herself.
"Where am I?" She asked. Her voice was back to normal.
"It's okay Killa. You're home." Whispered Rosita, as she moved Killa's fringe to the side of her head.
