Chapter 11
Vaperons' New Trainer.
It had taken us a few hours to get to Pallet Town. And when we got there it was already dark.
*We should rest for the night.* Said the Vaporeon as she came to a stop at the pond near Pallet.
*Yeah, I guess your right.* I replied looking around. Where had that Pikachu gone to?
I wasn't surprised not to see the Pikachu anywhere around. Who knew how long I had been gone for. She probably decided that I ran away and went and found a new mate. Or worse, she got captured.
*I hope she's alright.* I whispered to myself before falling asleep.
I awoke that next morning to see everything the way it had been when I had went to sleep. Which was a shock. Ever since I was three years old it seemed like everyday I awoke to some sort of a shock. It had started with my little brother being born.
*Looks like I'm liked by someone to not have been shocked by something happening.* I said as I moved away from the bush.
I'm a little worried though. I need to go off and get some food. But I can't leave that little Vaporeon here all by herself. And I don't want to wake her up just to go get something to eat.
*I wonder what I should do.* I sighed as I looked at my reflection in the water.
"There you are." I heard a voice saying from behind me. I wasn't really sure who it was, but I had heard the voice before.
Great, one of my past trainers come to capture me.
*Misty?* I wondered as I saw her reflection in the water just above mine.
"Where's your trainer at?" She asked.
*Probably out catching Pokémon, I left him not to long ago.* I replied as I continued to stare at her reflection.
"He left you?" Asked Misty. Apparently she didn't understand everything I had said.
*No, I left him.* I replied as I turned to face her.
"Oh," she started, "you left him."
*That's right.* I replied as a nodded my head just in case.
"Why did you leave him?" She wondered. "Was he mean to you?"
*What's going on?* I heard the voice of the Vaporeon asking as she stuck her head out of the bushes.
"A Vaporeon!" Yelled Misty. "I don't have on of those."
*Ah!* Yelled the Vaporeon as she disappeared back into the bushes.
"Wait!" Misty yelled as she started for the bushes.
*Stop.* I demanded as I got in front of Misty.
"What are you doing?" Asked Misty. "I know!" She said as she pulled out on of her Pokéballs. "You want to fight."
*No.* I replied. *I want you to help that Vaporeon.*
"You want me to help that Vaporeon?" Misty wondered as she looked back at the bushes.
*Yes.* I replied. *Her trainer evolved her way to soon.*
"Hey Misty what's taking you so long?" Wondered Ash as he came into view.
"This Pikachu is wanting me to help a Vaporeon in those bushes." Replied Misty.
*Yes.* I started. *She was evolved to soon.*
*Is it safe to come out?* Asked the Vaporeon from behind me.
"It's ok Vaporeon." Started Misty. "Where not going to hurt you."
"Hey isn't that that Pikachu that that trainer had?" Wondered Ash.
*It's safe to come out now.* I said to the Vaporeon. *And yes I am.* I replied to Ash.
"What happened to your. . ." Ash started, he was looking across the pond for some reason. "Did anyone else hear that?" He asked.
*Hear what?* I wondered. The answer came just as I finished my sentence.
*Mate!* I heard a distant voice yelling.
*Mate!* The voice yelled again. It sounded familiar.
*Mate!* Yelled the voice again.
*Oh no.* I said as I looked to the other side of the pond.
*Mate!* She yelled again. It was that female Pikachu.
*Oh no.* I said as I looked towards the ground.
"What's up with that other Pikachu?" Wondered Misty.
*Mate!* She yelled again. Now getting closer.
What can I do? I can't just go running up to her, just think how embarrassing that would be.
*Mate!* She yelled again. Even closer.
But I have to. I don't want her to think I'm ignoring her.
*Mate!* She yelled.
*He-* I started before I was knocked to the ground.
She was on top of me. She was hugging me and. . . Crying. Had she been that worried about me?
*I was so worried when you didn't come back.* She said, tears rolling down her cheeks. *I didn't know what happened to you.*
*It's ok now.* I said as I got us both to our feet. *I had gotten captured again but I got away from him.*
*What's going on?* Asked the Vaporeon. Tears now visible in her eyes.
"It's so sweat Ash." Replied Misty. She too was beginning to tear up.
What's going on? Is there some kind of disease going around that makes girls cry when another one does?
*I was so worried.* She said again. Still crying.
*It's ok.* I replied. Trying my best to comfort her. *Everything's gonna be ok.*
It had taken about an hour to get the girls calmed down. Then it took about another hour to get everything explained to Misty as to why she should raise the Vaporeon.
"I guess your right." Misty finally said in defeat.
*Just think of it has if her trainer abandoned her.* I said again. *Because in some ways he did.*
*Thank you for your help, Lightning.* Replied the Vaporeon. *But you should go with Angel, because in some ways you have been like an Angel for me.*
Great now everyone is gonna start calling me that.
*Uh thanks.* I said with a small laugh, I was clearly embarrassed.
"Hey!" I heard a voice yelling. "What do you think your doing!?" It was Haishao.
*That's the one.* I said as he came into sight. *He's the one who evolved her.*
"That Vaporeon belongs to be!" Haishao yelled out. "And that Pikachu too."
*Don't let him hurt me.* Said the Vaporeon as she moved behind Misty.
*Don't worry.* I replied as I moved in front of the group.
*We'll protect you.* Replied Ashes Pikachu as he too moved to the front beside me.
*Yeah.* Replied the female Pikachu as she moved to the front on the other side of me.
Three Pikachu's would definitely make any human think twice about whatever it was he was doing, and this time was no exception.
"Your not responsible enough to be a Pokémon trainer." Replied Ash as he moved up to Haishao.
"Yeah," started Haishao, "but those are my Pokémon."
*What's gonna happen?* Wondered Vaporeon.
*Don't worry.* I replied again.
"But I captured them both." Said Haishao.
"That doesn't matter." Replied Misty. "You have to be able to understand your Pokémon. And I don't think you can do that."
Haishao looked down in shame. He knew she was right but he didn't really want to admit it.
"But I am a good Pokémon trainer." He replied, still looking down. "Ever since I got my first Pokémon I treated it like it was a family member. I never let them get too hurt, and if they did I would take them to a Poké Center. I always did what you're supposed to do with them. I always feed them about the same time everyday. I always made sure they where in good health.
"The only reason I made Eevee evolve when I did was because I thought that that was what it wanted. If I had known anything more than what I was told then I wouldn't of did it." He finished, tears where streaming down his face.
"I'm sorry." Misty said as she placed her hand on his shoulder. "I didn't know what all you did."
I was looking down in shame now. I had already marked him as a bad trainer right when he first caught me. I guess that I had never thought about what all he did for his Pokémon.
"I still don't think you should get your Vaporeon back just yet." Started Ash. "And not because of what you did. But because of how young Vaporeon is. You should leave her here so she can be raised properly."
"Your right." Replied Haishao as he wiped tears from his eyes. "But how do I know you two will be the best people to raise Vaporeon?"
"You don't." Said Misty. "But I promise you that she will be well kept after. And we can give her all the care that she needs."
This was enough to convince Haishao to let Vaporeon stay.
*What happened?* Asked Vaporeon.
*Your going to be staying with us.* Replied Pikachu.
*We had better be going.* I said to the female Pikachu.
*What. Oh, I guess your right.* She replied.
"Hey wait a second." Said Haishao. "What about Lightning Angel? It's still my Pikachu."
Why did he have to notice me?
*He named you Lightning Angel.* Replied the Pikachu. *That sounds a little Romantic.*
*No no no!* I yelled. *My name is not Lightning Angel, and I do not want a trainer!*
"Um." Replied Haishao looking around. "What did it say?"
"He said that his name isn't Lightning Angel and that he doesn't want a trainer." Replied Ash.
Haishao looked as if he was about to get really mad, but for some reason he accepted me not wanting to join him.
"Alright." He said as he started walking away. "I wouldn't want to force any Pokémon to stay with me that didn't."
