The Pokemon Trainer
~~
"Pikachu," Ash called as he walked up the path. Earlier Pikachu had sensed something and jumped off his place on Ash's shoulder and went to investigate. Ash, Misty, and Brock followed. They all searched for Pikachu now. Ash in took a deep breath then yelled, "PIIIKAAAACHUUUU!!!!"
"Oi! Kid!! Shut-up! I'm trying to sleep here!" Came a female voice. Ash looked for the owner of the voice.
"Huh?! Who are you? Where are you?" Ash asked. An acorn hit his head. He turned around and looked up and saw a girl sitting in a tree petting a Pikachu.
"As you can see, I'm up here," she said. She reached behind her and pulled out another Pikachu. "I believe this is yours."
"Ah! Pikachu!" Ash said happily.
"Pika-pi!" Pikachu replied smiling.
"You should really take more care of your Pokemon, it you're going to let them stay out of their Pokeballs. Hmph, Jerome, you can go have some fun now and run around, be back before sunset," the girl said. Her Pikachu nodded and jumped into another tree. The girl jumped down from the branch. "Now thanks to you, I'm too awake to sleep."
"Shouldn't you sleep during day time?" Ash asked. Misty and Brock just caught up with him now. Brock went goo-goo at the site of this girl.
"Hellooo!! My name's Brock. What's yours?" He asked hold her hand. She jerked her hand away and set out a Pokemon on him, Nidoking.
"Alright, get him Jack, have some fun!" She said. Her Nidoking, Jack, started to chase Brock over the clearing. Misty scowled.
"Hey!! That's not nice! You're not allowed to release Pokemon to attack people!" Misty said. The girl smirked.
"Then why do we have Pokemon battles? Everyone Pokemon is it's own person. People, a broad word it y'ask me," she said as she turned and walked to the tree and held out her hand. A small Pokemon plopped into it. It was a newly hatched Pidgey. "Everyone is born, no doubt, and everyone and everything is its own person."
"Hey! Stop you Nidoking!! It could really hurt Brock!!" Ash yelled. The trainer sighed and nodded.
"Fine! Jack, heel! Let's not 'seriously injure' the man," the trainer said. The Nidoking stopped and trotted back over to the trainer who petted it on the head. "Good, my friend. Now let's go."
"Hey! Wait! So you're a Pokemon trainer too eh?" Ash said smirking confidently. The trainer sighed.
"I guess, I prefer a Pokemon friend that just so happens to catch them in my Pokeballs. So what?" she asked.
"I challenge you to a Pokemon battle!" Ash said pointing. "Right here!! Right Now!! My Pokemon need a good warm up!"
The trainer sighed. "You stupid boy. But fine. I'll only use one Pokemon to make this easy for you. Jack, would you like to do that honors, or shall I bring out my second strongest?"
The Nidoking stepped forward motioning that he wanted to battle. The Trainer chuckled.
"Always confident in yourself, Jack. Don't get too confident you're still in training, though you near releasment," the Trainer said. "Go on, you can do this."
"Only one, that's a little risky for you! Pikachu! GO!" Ash yelled. The Trainer tut tutted him and shook her head.
"So ego-inflated, starting with his strongest, Nidoking body slam."
"She's starting with an offense?! Fine, we'll defend, AGILITY!!" Ash yelled.
"Ash, be careful, she's very experienced," Brock said. "I've never seen such a huge Nidoking."
"That's all right, quick attacks and fast movements should bring down the big one," Ash said smirking.
"Nidoking, concentrate!" The Trainer said. Nidoking did so. "NOW!! Body Slam!!"
Nidoking started for then leaped back using a rock did a double flip in the air so quickly not even Pikachu saw it coming, then BOOM! It landed right on Pikachu, in a Body Slam that made the ground shake. Dust rose causing a lot of coughing and blindness. The Trainer released another Pokemon.
"Stryke, use your wind attacks and clear up this dust, please!" The Trainer said and the large Pidgeot did so. "Thanks, you can go off and have some fun or would you prefer the Pokeball?"
The Pidgeot preferred to be in the Pokeball so the Trainer returned it to the Pokeball. Ash coughed and looked in shock and horror as he say Nidoking on his Pikachu, "PIKACHU!!"
"Jack get up," The Trainer said. Jack did and there on the ground was Pikachu, safe and sound, for Nidoking had quickly dug and hole underneath Pikachu before slamming onto it, though still Pikachu took some damage. Ash smiled.
"Pikachu! You're alright!" Ash yelled. "How?"
"How what?" The Trainer asked, knowing the answer perfectly well.
"How did your Nidoking move so fast when it's so big?!?!"
"Well, I've trained with this Nidoking for three years, believe me, it takes some work," the Trainer said then was about to walk away when Ash called her to stop.
"Wait! What's your name?" Ash asked.
"Just call me, Myst," The Trainer said.
"Will I see you again?" Ash asked.
"I'm always around, just call 'Myst' really loudly and my Pokemon will hear and I will come to you, Ash Ketchum. Yes I know your name. You're a good trainer, very good indeed. Though you still have quite a lot to learn," Myst said then vanished in the trees with Jack.
"Wow, she's a good trainer," Misty said.
"Yeah and did you hear what she said? She said to her Nidoking 'you're still in training' but did you see how strong and fast and huge it was?! Just think, if that was one of her weakest how strong her strongest would be!" Brock exclaimed. "She's got beauty too."
"Yeah. How come I've never seen her before though?" Ash said. Perhaps I'll soon her more often than not from now on, he though to himself.
"Ash, ash, let's go," Misty said, pulling on Ash's arm. Ash snapped back to reality.
"Huh? What? Oh yeah, of course, let's go," Ash said, taking lead, Pikachu on his shoulder.
From a huge Oak Tree Myst looked on. He's quite talented, very friendly to his own Pokemon. He could prove a worthy opponent. And he's cute too, she thought to her self. Another voice in her head scolded her.
Don't be thinking of affection to other humans right now, we got a job to do! The voice said. Myst smirked, behind her on her lower back sprouted a tiger tail waving around.
Right, no need for affection to humans at the moment, just our job, she thought to herself again. Then disappeared from view.
