Well, you all seemed to really like my last chapter. Here's the next one. Hopefully you will all like it, too.

"Goldeen, I choose you!" Oh no. She did it again. Everything Misty did seemed to remind her of Ash, even the words she said. She sighed.
"Like, Corsola, let's go!" Daisy shouted half-heartedly. For some reason, Misty had insisted on battling with her.
"Goldeen, use your horn attack!"
"Corsola, dodge it and make a whirlpool!"
Misty grinned, knowing that Daisy would never know, but whenever people used whirlpool; it wasn't her Pokemon that were defeated.
"Goldeen, finish it off with a hyper beam!" (???????)
"Oh, no! Corsola! Return. Wow, little sister. I, like, didn't know you were, like, this good. We'll talk later but now I have to, like," Daisy paused for a second while she checked her watch, "get ready for my date. See ya!"
Misty sighed again, this time heavier. She wished she had someone to sort everything out with. Togepi wouldn't understand, and her sisters were all to busy.
"Maybe writing a song will help." She thought. Misty had gotten into a habit of writing songs. It had been a week since she left.
When Misty got up to her room, she decided to watch a movie instead. She went to her video shelf and picked out A Walk to Remember. (Do I seem obsessed with that movie? It's because I am. Sooner or later, I'm probably going to do another song from it.)
Right before she pressed play, the doorbell rang.
"Misty, will you, like, get that please?" Daisy shouted. "I'm not quite finished getting ready."
Misty got up off of the bed and ran down the stairs to answer the door. She flung it open and...
"Danny?" Misty practically shouted.
"Misty?" Danny said at the same time. He wasn't expecting her to be here. " Why are you here?"
"Daisy, Lily, and Violet are my sisters."
"Oh."
"Aren't my sisters a little old for you?"
"I don't know. How old are they?"
"20"
"20?! I'm only 15!"
"Really?" Misty said, showing a blank face. If she was surprised, she showed no signs of it.
"So, I thought you were back in Pellet Town."
"I was, but I left." Danny noticed how her face fell when she said it, so he decided to change the subject.
"So, I know you have water Pokemon, but do you have any other types?" Danny questioned.
"Well, unless you count Togepi, no. I train water Pokemon, and want to be a water Pokemon master."
"Want to battle?" Danny asked just as Daisy walked into the room.
"Ready?" Daisy asked.
"Oh, right, I forgot. I was so caught up talking to Misty that I forgot why I was here. Misty, can we battle later?"
"Sure. See you when you get back!"
"OK."
Just before Misty closed the door behind them, Daisy turned around and glared at her.
~~~
"Ash, honey, go out tonight and do something." Delia said to Ash.
Ash just looked at her and went upstairs to his room. He had been moping around for days, and had hardly said a word. He wouldn't take his Pokemon out, and refused to go anywhere except the kitchen, and his room. And the bathroom, of course.
His friends had come by, his Pokemon had burst out of their Pokeballs trying to get his attention. Nothing was working.
"Listen," He said to himself, " you have got to stop this. Misty is not coming back, and it's your fault. You should never have asked Amber out in the first place." Of course, that just made everything worse.
Suddenly, a light bulb went over his head!
"Of course, why didn't I think of it before?" he wondered out loud.
"Ash, I'm going to the store. See you!" Delia shouted up the stairs.
"OK!" He shouted back.
~~~
*Ring, ring, ring! Ring, ring, ring! Phone call! Phone call!*
Misty ran to answer the phone.
"Hello?"
"Misty! Am I glad to talk to you." Misty recognized Ash's voice right away.
"Oh. Hi." She said, unenthusiastically.
"You don't sound very excited. Aren't you glad to hear from me?"
"OK, that's the last straw!" Misty thought to herself.
"ASH YOU STUPID IDIOTIC, MORON OF A MALE! You call me up, expecting me to be all happy that you called? Well, I left because you didn't need me! I'm not coming back, so get over it. You had your chance. Well, I have someone else!" She said out loud, not meaning to say 'someone else'. (Thank you joy-girl, for that first sentence.)
"Someone else?" He had to admit, he was curious.
"Uhh...yeah."
"Isn't it a little too soon?" Oops. He said the wrong thing.
"Too soon after what?" Misty fumed.
"Uh...us...or....you leaving, I mean?"
"Let me get one thing straight with you Ash Ketchum! 'We' were never anything! YOU were the one that asked someone else out. YOU didn't ask me, you asked my best friend! And now, I'm not sure what I am with anyone right now. So would you just leave me alone while...I take time." Misty felt as if a lot of air has just been knocked out of her. "I have to go now." She said softly. She put the receiver down. She then sunk to her knees and cried again.
~~~
Ash stared at the receiver dumbfounded, then put it back in the cradle. He went back up in his room. He sat down on his bed and thought about all the good times he and Misty had had together.
I close my eyes
And I can see
The day we met
Just one moment and I knew
Your my best friend
Do anything for you
He remembered when he was fished out. He laughed slightly at the memory.
We've gone so far
And done so much
And I feel
Like we've always been together
Right by my side
Through thick and thin
You're the part of my life, I'll always remember
The memory of him "winning" a water badge.
The time has come
It's for the best I know it
Who could've guessed that you and I
Somehow, someday
We'd have to say goodbye
The picture of Misty coaching him from the sidelines in the Johto League made him smile.
You've helped me find
The strength inside
And the courage
To make all my dreams come true
How will I find
Another friend
Like you?
He then remembered how Chikarita hated Misty so much, because Chikorita thought she should have Ash, not Misty. He chuckled at that thought.
Two of a kind
That's what we are
And it seemed
Like we were always winning
But as our team
Is torn apart
I wish we could go back
To the beginning
Of course, not all of his memories were good. He also remembered when he had been turned to stone by Mewtwo and Mew. Misty had been so worried. He was glad that she HAD cared.
The time has come
It's for the best I know it
Who could've guessed that you and I
Somehow, someday
We'd have to say goodbye
Somehow today...
...we have to say goodbye.
He remembered the conversation they had the other night at the party.

Well, how did you like it? Sorry, I made it a little short. I also couldn't think of any other songs. Next chapter will be out shortly. See ya!
