Ash awoke first. He looked at May. Making sure not to wake her up, he climbed out of bed. He walked into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. A thirteen-year-old looked back at him. He got dressed and ready to go.
He didn't hear May get up. When he walked back in there she startled him. She smirked.
"I scared you, did I?"
"How in the world are you so quiet? I didn't hear you get up." he asked.
"How should I know?" she said. She grabbed her bag and started rummaging through it.
"Let's see now, were are my clothes.aha! Found them!" she yelled. She started pulling things out-a brush, her clothes, ect. He watched here while she did this.
"Alright, Penny! Come here!" she yelled. Penny ran over and jumped onto the bed. May took the bow off of her and put a red one on her. Ash gaped at her. "There you go!" Penny hopped off the bed.
"Okay...I'll get ready, then we can go take the Pikachus to that couple, then...then..." she said. They thought for a moment.
"Let's think about what we'll do after the couple when it comes up?" Ash said. May nodded. She hurried into the bathroom and got ready. When she was out, they walked out into the hallway out side their rooms. Downstairs, they saw that lady reading a book behind the counter. She looked up and smiled.
"Whale, would ya look at this! Ya two are up. What's ya two up to?"
"We're going to go see that couple so I can get a Pichu." May said.
"Wonderful. See ya in a bit then." They walked out and went back to that house. Ash knocked on the door. A old woman opened it and looked out.
"Hello, may I help you?" she asked.
"Yes, I want to get a pichu." May said quietly.
"Come in! Come in! Then we shall talk..." They walked into the house. A old man was siting at the table. They all sat down at the table.
"Yes, so, you want a Pichu? Am I correct?"
"You're correct." May said.
"Do you got two Pikachu?"
"Yep. Go! Penny!" May called. Penny came out of her poke ball.
"Come here, Pikachu." Ash ordered. Pikachu walked up to them and jumped onto the table.
"Ah, good. Now it will take at least a day...but maybe shorter or longer...once it took 2 hours and another 5 days." the old lady said.
"O.k." they said. She nodded to the old man. He stood up.
"He's going to take them to a special room we use for this. Please tell your pokemon to go with him."
"Go with him." they said to the pikachus. They followed the old man to the room and disappeared.
"Ash, I wouldn't say no to a little exploring around Goldenrod?"
"I guess we could," he said.
"We'll come back in a few hours to check up on them, ok?"
"Sure." the old lady said.
"Bye." They left.
"Where do you want to go?" Ash asked.
"Any where." May said.
"Let's go to the pokemon center and look at my map of Johto and decide." Ash said. When they got there, they spread the map across one of the tables.
"Let's see...ok, on the other side of town there's a path that forks at the end. One goes to the National Park and the other goes straight to the path on the other side of the National Park. It leads to I think...oh, I've forgotten were it leads..."
"Let's do that path!"
"Ok...let's go!" They headed to the other side of the town. When they got to the fork, Ash was looking down one path.
"This one," they headed down that one, but soon had to stop. A tree was blocking the way!
"Sudowoodo," Ash said. May looked at him.
"Sudowoodo?" she choked. He nodded.
"Go, Tododile."
"Todo."
"Water gun." The water pokemon used water gun on Sudowoodo. It wiggled and challenged him to a fight.
"Return, Tododile. Go Cyndaquil." Totodile returned to it's poke ball and Cyndaquil came out. "Flame Thrower."
Cyndaquil didn't think twice and did the attack. Sudowoodo fainted.
"Poke ball, go." he tossed the ball at the fallen pokemon. He caught it.
"Let's keep going." They continued to walk. Soon they reached Ecruteak City!
"Wow!" May said. They looked around the town for a while then went back to Goldenrod. They headed to the old lady's house to check up on the pokemon.
"You came at the perfect time. Your pikachus just had a poke egg!" the old lady said. She lead them over to the table. Penny and pikachu were having a heated match of tag around the table, but ran to their trainer and owner when they were spotted.
"Would you like to see the poke egg?"
"Sure." they said. The old man brought it over to the table and lightly set it down. It was yellow, with lightning bolt stripes.
"How much do I owe you?" May asked.
"Nothing. There were so well behaved and so on, so we won't charge you a thing." May picked up the poke egg.
"It's light."
"May, let's go back to the hotel and show your mom and dad. Your mom will most likely scream though...." Ash suggested. May nodded. She set it back on the table and slipped her book bag off. Then she put the poke egg in it and zipped it shut.
"We'll make it a surprise. Come on Penny. Thanks ma 'am and sir."
` "No problem," the old lady said.
They left.
