C. Cowboy: Sorry for being a lil slow at putting these things out, School and other things are slowing me down a little bit, but that's side the point. On with the show, this chapter Ash is about to finish unleashing the most powerful monster ever to grace the world, can Misty get to him and stop him before it's too late? This also has the song, Kissed By A Rose by Seal and My Way by Limp Bisket (two for one deal hee hee), in it, plus a taste of Mew's real power. ENJOY!

  CHAPTER 15: Confrontations

"WHAT?" the room exploded as everyone stood up from shock of Mew's revelation. It is not as you think; everyone has a dark side and thinks the worst thoughts at times. When Destroyah infects a person or pokemon he empowers the dark thoughts and makes him or her forget the good thoughts. "So now what?" Jimmy asked setting down. "How can we help him?" Duplica asked. I'm sorry Mew responded. "What does that supposed mean?" Star snapped. The only thing you can do is to put him out of his misery and stop him before he can release his master; no one has ever broken free or even lived through being controlled by that monster.  

Meanwhile just outside the window Togatic Gasped at what all Mew has said. 'I Gotta tell Mom. Now.'  Togatic then teleported back to the Pokemon Center. But just a small distance away Ash flew toward the Gym Leader Tower. "I need the tallest building to open the portal correctly," he then looked at the gigantic tower and smiled, "That will do the trick."

Special

Ash then started his attack; sending energy blasts at the tower's defenses.

You think your special,

You do

I can see it in you eyes.

"Um, Guys" Ben said rushing in. "We've got a… small… problem."

I can see it when you laugh at me

Look down on me

And walk around me.  

"Remember Ash," Ash said to himself, "The stupid thing needs to stand long enough to open a portal." He said swatting a group of League guards' Flying Pokemon out of the sky.

Just one more fight

About your leadership

The Ash was knocked back a little bit from a blast from the roof. He looked and saw Gary there with his Entei looking back at him.

And now I'm pissed yeah

Gary jumped on Entei's back and the jumped to dodge a blast from Ash,

This time I'm 'a let it all come out This time I'm 'a stand up and shout It's 'a do things my way, My way, my way or the highway!

One of Ash's pokeballs began to shack and it busted open, and Lugia appeared before him, I'm sorry Master, I cannot let you do this.

Just one more fight

About a lot of things

 Ash then, before Lugia could react, grabbed him by the neck and took off flying toward Gary and Entei.

And I will give up everything

To be on my own again

Free again.

YEAH

Ash then swung Lugia like a bat and slammed him into Gary and Entei, knocking them into the air.

This time I'm 'a let it all come out This time I'm 'a stand up and shout It's 'a do things my way, My way, my way or the highway!

Ash then tossed Lugia to the ground and he hit with a sickening thud. Ash then shot up and while Gary and Entei was still flying in the air, he caught them. "Who's the loser now, Gary?" Ash growled with his eyes glowing crimson.

 Some day you'll see things my way


Cause you never know

Ash then grabbed Gary off Entei and threw the knocked out Pokemon on top of Lugia. And while holding Gary by the throat, Ash asked again, "I said who's the loser now, Gary?" 

Where, you never know

Where you're gonna go

Gary looked at Ash confused, "Ash what's happened to you?" Ash just laughed.

Just one more fight


And I'll be history

 
Yes I will straight up


Leave your shit


And you'll be the one who's left


Missing me

"You were right Gary, helping others, being kind, that's what losers do, so tell me, Gary, who's the loser now?" Before Gary could respond Ash through him toward the ground.

Yeah


This time I'm 'a let it all come out

 
This time I'm 'a stand up and shout

 
I'm 'a do things my way


It's my way


My way, or the highway

Then just before Gary hit the ground a pink bubble formed around him, ASH! STOP THIS NOW! Mew yelled from a few feet above the tower.

Ash laughed at Mew, but Mew continued to glare. I don't want to hurt you my friend. Mew said as energy began to form around him and his eye began to take a gold color and his skin began to take a bluish color and slowly started to darken. I haven't had to show my true self in many centuries. And I never thought I'd have to use it on you. Ash watched in awe at Mew powering up, and then growled.

Some day you'll see things my way

 
Cause you never know

 
Where, you never know

 
Where you're gonna go

 He then sent a blast at him before Mew was ready and Mew fell down to the roof of the tower, back in his original form. "Can't have you doing that Mew, the master must be released, and I can't let you stop me." Ash said with a smirk. Mew fought back up to all fours and gasped for air, I… failed… He said teleporting away.

Meanwhile back at the pokemon center Togatic just filled Misty, Brock, Leo, Pikachu, Kurai and Crystal in. Pikachu and Misty looked like they had been kicked in the gut, Leo just glared in space, Kurai laid her head on Pikachu's shoulder, and Crystal looked dreamily, "Oh Ash…" Crystal said with a sigh, 'he is like, so cool!" Misty then glared at Crystal, "you... you… you…" Crystal didn't even notice she just sighed happily.

Misty then grabbed her belt and pokeballs, and headed toward the door, "Where do you think your going, Chika?" Leo asked. "I am going after him!" Misty said determinedly. "Mist, he's not the Ash we knew anymore." Brock said soothingly. "I don't care, I have to try to talk to him." Crystal then got up and walked behind Misty, "What do you think YOU are doing?" Crystal just smiled, "Hey I wanna see Ash too, and face it sister, there's no way you can get close without help. Truce?" Misty thought for a second before realizing for once Crystal was right, "Ok, truce, let's go." Brock and Leo looked at each other and nodded and headed behind them. Kurai looked at Pikachu "Pika chu pika?" 'You going too?' Pikachu just looked away.

Leo then saw Dusty beside his truck

Around an hour later at the Tower, "Ok, Chika, what's the game plan?" Leo asked Misty. Then Crystal jumped up, "well, first…" only to be knocked back down by Misty's mallet. "OK, you guys make a distraction so I can sneak in. Leo and Brock nodded, while Crystal laid on the ground, "Oh Ash…" Brock got all teary eyed, "why do all the girls like him??? It ain't freaking fair all I get are the nutcases!" "What about Ivy?" Leo asked, Brock just turned kindda blue green, "freak…" Leo looked a bit frightened but shrugged it off.

Wasn't hard for Leo and Brock to distract the security at the front, they were to busy trying to clean up the mess. Misty and Togatic. Togatic told her he sensed Ash on the roof, so that's where they headed.

There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea.

You became the light on the dark side of me.

"Ash?" Misty asked signaling Togatic to stay back. "Stay away, Misty!" Ash yelled.

Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.

"I'm not leaving without you Ash." Misty said walking toward him, looking at the ground unable to make eye contact. All the while Ash was having flashbacks.

But did you know,

(I'M NOT LEAVING UNTIL YOU PAY ME BACK FOR MY BROKEN BIKE ASH KETCHUM!)

That when it snows,

(Gary's right YOU ARE A LOSER!)

My eyes become large and

(If you would have maybe TRAINED you might have won!)

The light that you shine can be seen.

"I'm not going to leave you Ash." Misty said as he fired a energy blast at her feet

Baby,

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.

"I said GO AWAY!" Ash yelled as the red began to fade slightly, "YOU NEVER LOVED ME!"

Ooh,

The more I get of you,

Stranger it feels, yeah.

"Yes I did Ash, and I still do." Misty said stopping long  enough for him to fire another blast at her feet.

And now that your rose is in bloom.

A light hits the gloom on the gray.

"Ash please, think back" Misty pleaded continuing to walk toward him.

There is so much a man can tell you,

So much he can say.

(ME? ASH'S GIRLFRIEND! YUCK! NO WAY!)

You remain,

(Ash I don't want you to go.)

My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby

'What?' Ash thought to himself as a memory he had forgotten appeared.

To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.

Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?

(ASH! YOU'RE ALIVE! YOU'RE ALIVE!)

But did you know,

That when it snows,

(I thought I lost you again)

My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Ash's eyes dimmed even more, "Misty…"

Baby,

("Misty, there is nothing you can say to talk me…" Before Ash could finish the sentence, Misty dove into his chest, "Please, don't go, don't leave me again! I-I don't t-think I could take losing you again!")

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.

(she cried as he wrapped his arms around her back, trying to calm her down. "It's all right, Misty, I'll just be in and out. I'll go in get the crown off Amanda and bring Pikachu, Togapi, and all the other Pokemon home…")

Ooh, the more I get of you

Stranger it feels, yeah

(Misty looked up with now not only fear but anger in her eyes, "Don't you dare make it sound all cut and dry, Ash Ketchum! I know she has a small army of Pokemon and soldiers in there! If you go back you could be… you could be…" Ash rubbed her cheek causing her to lose her whole train of thought, "Shush, It's going to all right, Mist, I WILL come back to you.")

Now that your rose is in bloom.

A light hits the gloom on the gray,

I've been kissed by a rose on the gray,

(Ash then looked back at Misty and realized their faces were just inches away. They just stood there for a few moments, staring in each other's eyes.)

I've been kissed by a rose

(Then eyes slowly close)

...And if I should fall along the way

(heads tilt)

I've been kissed by a rose

(trembling lips move closer… and closer…and closer, until they finally meet)  

There is so much a man can tell you,

So much he can say.

You remain

My power, my pleasure, my pain.

"M-Misty?" Ash stuttered as his anger slowly eased, but yet to go away. Misty continued to walk toward him, "I'm not going to lose you, Ash, not again."  

To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah

Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.

But did you know,

That when it snows,

My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Misty then was less then two feet from Ash, sweat was visible on his forehead.

Baby,

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.

Ash then began to power up another blast and but couldn't bring himself to raise his arm to her.

Ooh, the more I get of you

Stranger it feels, yeah

"If it will bring you back to your senses, Ash, do it." Misty said still starring at her feet.   

Now that your rose is in bloom,

Misty then grabbed his wrist and raised his arm to her chest, "Do it."

A light hits the gloom on the gray.

"Just… make it… quick… ok Ash?" Misty said finally making eye contact. Ash gasped and gritted his teeth as he saw the tears running down her cheeks.

Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray

Ooh, the more I get of you

Stranger it feels, yeah

"We have to hurry before Misty gets herself killed!" Jimmy said running up the stairs followed by Leo, Brock, and the other elite.

And now that your rose is in bloom

A light hits the gloom on the gray

Now that your rose is in bloom,

They then finally got the door to the roof.

A light hits  the gloom

Then as Jimmy was opening the door, they heard the sound of an energy blast hitting skin point blank.

 on the

Leo pushed past them and saw the situation and all he could say was, "My God…"
