"We went north, then we went east, and that old bald guy said we
would find our way from here." Ash stated, " but now where do we go?" He
kicked at a rock in frustration. "Ow!" he exclaimed. He looked down and
discovered that the rock was actually a miniature statue of an oriental
looking dragon. Right then, the statue burst open. All four of them
screamed and jumped back. There was an enormous cloud of red smoke, and
when it cleared, there stood a small red dragon that came just past their
ankles.
"Who has disturbed me?!" the dragon shouted from the ground.
"Whoops," Ash said sheepishly, shrugging.
"Whoops?" it questioned. "Here I am, trying to finish my 500 year nap, and I don't even get past 100 because here you come along kicking me..that's it! Dishonor! Dishonor on your family! Dishonor on your" he paused to stare at Pikachu, " cow!"
"But how does it--" Ash began, immediately cut off.
"Silence. You have been dishonored. Wallow in your shame!" Brock frowned and stared at the ground, shuffling his feet in the dirt. "I'm ashamed," he announced.
"Oh my god!" KD exclaimed, "we're the chosen group!"
"Miss, with all do respect, shut up!" Mushu yelled. "Personally, I think it's not right that you should be chosen just because this moron kicked me. What moron goes around kicking statues?" Ash opened his mouth, ready to defend himself, but Misty silenced him with a wave of the hand. "I guess that's no matter now," Mushu said thoughtfully. "What we need to do now is give you the power to fly!"
" Who do you think you are to tell us that we have to fly?" Brock questioned, not catching on at all.
" I am Mushu, titan of magic and you sir, are wasting my time." Mushu exclaimed. Misty giggled, thinking his name quite humorous. "Oh, you think my name is funny. Is that it? Having a name that means foggy ain't so special either you know." Mushu stated. She stared at him for a few seconds.
"How do you know my name?" she questioned.
"My child," Mushu began, " I know everything." He pointed at KD. "You are Katerina Dumbledore Melgood, little sister of Danny, the greatest Pokemon master in the world." Mushu now pointed at Ash. "I know that you are Ash Ketchum, the chosen one who has once before helped the great guardian lugia." He turned his finger on Brock. " I know that you are Brock Macintosh (Yes, that is his last name now because I refuse to call him Brock Harrison. So there!) Pewter City gym leader." He now pointed his finger at Misty. "I know that you are Misty Robinson (ok, so we really aren't that creative with names here) and you are one of the four Cerulean flowers that run the Cerulean gym." Here, Mushu hesitated. "And I grant you all the power to fly. You shall head West and you will stop at the rest point where I will appear and give you directions on the next part of your quest."
"How will we know where the rest point is?" Misty asked.
" From above, you will see the rest point marked out as a circular clearing in the trees. That will be the rest point. There, you can relax and have fin for a while, then I will come and tell you your next task." With that, Mushu disappeared.
" Okay," Brock began, "I don't care how much that dragon Mushu knows. I still that he's spacey and people don't fly! What does he think this is Peter Pan or something?" Brock closed his eyes and began to imitate the Peter Pan movie by closing his eyes and repeating over and over again "happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts." As he did so, he began to lift off the ground.
"Uh Brock," Ash began unsurely. Brock continued chanting.
"Shhhh. Can't you see I'm thinking happy thoughts here," Brock stated in a "duh" tone.
"Brock," Ash persisted, but Brock still did not listen as he continued to rise higher still.
"Brock!" KD yelled. Brock opened his eyes to discover that he really was off the ground. "You're flying!" she exclaimed in joyful amazement.
"KD," Ash said looking down, "so are we."
"Uh uh," Misty said, planting her butt on the ground and grabbing a handful of grass. KD and Ash made their way over to her and grabbed a hold of her arms, jerking hr upward with them. "No no! I'm not meant to fly. I'm not that fond of heights. Put me down!!!" They shrugged and let go of her, but she stayed levitated in mid air. "Oh great." She winced, "Now I can't get back down on the ground" She paused, "get me down. I don't like flying. I'm gonna die!" Ash rolled his eyes and took hold of her hand. She immediately jerked him toward her and wrapped her arms around him tightly.
"Misty, you're ok," he said gently, "but if you don't loosen your grip a little, I might not be." She loosened her grip a little, blushing all the while. The four of them started off awkwardly, but quickly got the hang of it and were able to fly rather good.
A little while later, Brock spotted Johnny and his group. "Hi, Johnny boy!!!," he called down to him. Johnny looked in all directions before finally looking up to discover them flying.
"How can you all be the chosen group?!" Johnny yelled.
"Haha!" Brock called and they flew over and past them.
"Who has disturbed me?!" the dragon shouted from the ground.
"Whoops," Ash said sheepishly, shrugging.
"Whoops?" it questioned. "Here I am, trying to finish my 500 year nap, and I don't even get past 100 because here you come along kicking me..that's it! Dishonor! Dishonor on your family! Dishonor on your" he paused to stare at Pikachu, " cow!"
