Remembering Mewtwo: Epilogue
Ash walked along the shore on the island, idly kicking small pebbles. Pikachu walked beside him, concerned for it's trainer. Ash stopped, his hands resting in his pockets as he looked out over the horizon. The sun was low in the sky. That bright blazing ball reminded him so much of…
He quickly turned his head away, as if pained by the very image.
"Pika-pi…" Pikachu tugged at the leg of Ash's pants.
Ash glanced down at the small yellow creature. It's round, brown eyes were so sad, "pika-pi, pikachu? (Ash, what's wrong?)"
"I just wish all that happened on new island had never happened…" said Ash, and he knelt down by Pikachu, his knees sinking into the sand, "I know it all turned out alright, but…it was so…so horrible! I don't ever want to remember it."
Pikachu stepped into its trainers arms, and Ash embraced Pikachu tightly as he could without squeezing too hard. "Pikachu…"
"Ash!…Ash!" shouted a voice from afar.
Ash looked up, to see Misty approaching him, with togepi close behind. "Ash…" she said, as she tried to catch her breath, "What's the matter?"
Ash looked up at Misty, and she got down on her knees beside him.
"Ash…just what is it. Why do you wish you didn't remember any of this?" she asked.
"Because…Because…Misty…when I was…watching the pokemon battle, I wanted them to stop, but I could do nothing about it…it made me feel so helpless…and… when I was dead…I saw everything! Everything! I saw how sad all of you were, as hard as I tried, I could do nothing. I tried to tell you all I was okay, but nothing happened…"
"Ash…" Misty began, and she wrapped an Arm around his shoulder, "It won't happen again…and you shouldn't feel so bad Ash…it wasn't your fault."
"I know it wasn't my fault, but I'd feel better not knowing any of it EVER happened."
Pikachu crawled out of Ash's lap, and went over to keep a watch on togepi.
"Ash…I…I don't like it any more than you do...in fact…"
"what?"
"Infact…seeing you…laying there…was…Ash it was horrible…" said Misty, the tears welling up in her eyes now, "I thought I would never see you again….that I would never get to tell you…"
"Tell me what?" asked Ash, his heart beating at a thousand times a minute.
"That I…" she said, and she looked up at him.
Their eye's locked for a second, before Misty continued, "I love you…"
Ash swallowed, his heart having skipped a beat.
"You're so special to me ash…you're my best friend…I never want to lose you!" she said, pulling him into a hug.
Ash didn't resist, as he wrapped his arms around Misty in a hug. For them, time seemed to stop. Misty finally had the truth off her chest…
"It wasn't about the bike…it never was…" she whispered.
"Thanks Misty…"
***
Brock stared up at the ceiling…his thoughts were of his dream…
wait a second…what was I just…thinking about? he pondered…all of his previous thoughts seemed to have melted away, as if they had never existed…
***
Ash climbed into his sleeping bag. Misty's sleeping bag lay adjacent to his, and Tracyes was on his other side. Both of them were already asleep. Ash Glanced at Misty, and smiled. And then he leaned over, and kissed her cheek, for what would be the last time in a long while…
***
"Where…where am I? This seems like de ja vu…"
I brought you back here again…for I assure you, the last time
The large, cat-like pokemon appears before him.
"Mewtwo…what is it this time? I've already excepted what happened, please don't tell me there's more."
I see you learned the lesson I had intended you to…
"What Lesson was that?"
To always say what you feel…because you may be gone the next day. I saw a certain friendship between you and the red-haired girl. A friendship I'm not sure that even the two of you saw…now that you know this, I will leave this thought in your mind…but the memories will leave with me…
"Wait! Don't go yet!" shouted Ash.
But mewtwo faded before his eyes, as all the memories seemed to melt away, just as they had before. The white light around him faded to black, and he found himself with the image of only one girl, and the realization of how much she really meant to him…just as much as his other friends…maybe more…
Misty…why can't we just get along…
And in the morning, when they woke…there was nothing more to say or decide on as far as New island because to them…it didn't exist.
The End
