The night(11:00) after May and Ash's encounter with Mr. Ketchum at the park. Pichu is asleep at the bottom of the bed. Ash and May are sitting near the top, playing a game on her laptop. 'Game over' came from the speaker on the laptop.
May said, "Let's shut this off before it over heats or some thing..." She shut it off and shut the lid, and slid it under the bed. She smiled.
"Done with that." she said. She leaned against him. "Now what should we do?"
He thought a moment. "Don't really know..."
He put his head on her shoulder. She gave him a kiss. "That.was unexpected..." he said.
"I don't know how old I was when Mom said it, but she said, 'You should always expect the unexpected." May said. He thought about that a moment.
"Ok, now that I know that, what does it mean?"
"Beats me," May said.
"Your own mom said that and you don't know what it means? Didn't she tell you?"
"No."
"Too bad she didn't tell you...it would help!" he said.
"Whatever," May said. He gave her a kiss, but that time held it.
Mrs. Oak was walking down the corridor, between her and Mr. Oak's room and May and Ash's room, going to check up on them...but tonight is different.
She reached the door and opened it a bit, just enough to see inside. Her eyes went very wide at the sight of the two of them, kissing. Next her face went red, in anger and rage. She kicked the door open the rest of the way.
Startled by her entrance, the couple broke apart and looked at her. May looked horrified. "Uh no..."
"What?" Ash said in a whisper.
"Yesterday Dad told me some thing that's very bad, 'Your mother can be very violent after she has been drinking...and I found that out the hard way...'" May said in a whisper back. His eyes went very wide at that information.
"Great...just great..." he said, miserably. Mrs. Oak looked at them.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD DID YOU TWO THINK YOU WERE DOING?!" she barked. May hoped off the bed and walked up to her mother.
"We weren't doing any thing," she said.
"Oh yeah? I'M NOT BLIND! I SAW YOU TWO...you two..." Mrs. Oak couldn't think of what to say.
"Kissing? What'd you think we'd be doing, playing checkers?" May said sarcastically.
"ANY THING BUT THAT! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!" Mrs. Oak yelled.
"Nothing! Nothing at all! And any way, who said you could go and spy on us?!" May yelled.
"I SAID I COULD! ME AND YOUR FATHER HAVE THAT RIGHT, BEING YOUR PARENTS AND ALL!" Mrs. Oak yelled.
"AT LEAST DAD COMES IN TO CHECK ON US AND DOESN'T WATCH US FROM BEHIND THE DOOR!" May yelled.
"WELL, I'M NOT YOUR FATHER! SO GET USE TO IT!" Mrs. Oak yelled.
"You're not your self. You would never react this badly to some thing!" May said.
"WHAT ARE YOU SAYING!?" Mrs. Oak yelled.
"I'm saying, I know what's wrong with you," May said.
"Like what?" Mrs. Oak asked.
"You've been out drinking, haven't you?" May asked.
"That's none of your business!" Mrs. Oak said.
"So what? It none of your business what we are doing." May shot back.
"It is my business." Mrs. Oak said.
"Whatever."
"Don't you 'whatever' me!"
"OH, SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP AND LEAVE ME ALONE! GO BOTHER DAD OR SOME THING!" May screamed.
"DON'T YOU DARE TELL ME TO SHUT UP!"
"Oh shut up, you old hag!" May yelled. Ignoring her, Mrs. Oak turned to Ash, who was at the end of the bed with Pichu, who had been awoken by their yelling.
"Oh, now look at what you two did! You woke up that Pichu!'
"Us? US!? What do you mean us?! YOU WOKE PICHU UP!" Ash yelled.
"You two woke up that Pichu, and that's final!" she yelled.
"Liar!" May yelled. Mrs. Oak looked at her.
"I am not a liar...and if you say that again you will be sorry." she said menacingly.
"I'm not afraid of you. Like I said before, you are a liar!" May said back. Mrs. Oak took her by the throat.
"Say that again..." Mrs. Oak said. May looked horrified. Ash hoped off the bed and walked over to them.
"LET HER GO!" he yelled.
"No."
"MR.OAK! HELP!" Ash bellowed. They heard some one running down that corridor and stop dead in the door way-Mr. Oak.
"Maggie! Let her go!" Mr. Oak barked.
"Forget it," Mrs. Oak said. Mr. Oak walked up to her and took hold of her wrist.
"LET GO!" he yelled. Mrs. Oak loosened her grip, but not completely...but enough so Mr. Oak could pull her away.
"Get back to the room! NOW!" Mr. Oak barked.
"FINE!" she stomped away. Mr. Oak turned to Ash and May, both of whom were shaken by that.
"I am so sorry. I've got to stop this...but that was very close to getting very nasty. I'm going to get Robert and get this over with tomorrow faster then you can say 'pokemon...'" he said.
"G-good..." Ash said, dropping to his knee's, next to May, who had collapsed.
"Well, I'm off...good night, kids..." he left.
"That...was...scary..." May choked. Ash nodded.
"Very."
"Let's go to bed." May said.
"Alright, I guess," he said. They stood up and got back onto the bed.
"I hope that never happens again." May said.
"Me too. It won't if your dad succeeds." Ash said. May frowned.
"Yeah, and this is getting out of control so let's hope he does."
"Let's go to sleep instead of talking about your mom," Ash said. May lied back onto her pillow and turned her head to look at Ash.
"If it doesn't work, we're doomed." May said. Ash looked at her.
"Doomed? I don't think it's that bad...yet," he said, lying back.
"Let's hope so," May said.
"Yeah. Good night, May.' Ash said.
"Good night," May said. She shut her eyes to get some sleep...for the next day, she'll need it badly.
