I am not the owner of Pokemon or any other copywritten things mentioned or used in this story.

I'm back... and tired. The story just took a totally unexpected twist in my head... you'll see. I'll try to make this chapter long. Some of the chapters for Different Worlds were up to 8-9 pages, what happened to me? Anyway, here it is, chapter whatever-this-is! ( I honestly can't figure out what chapter this is!)

Kurt walked back and forth in his lair... It was Misty. They had clearly hidden it inside Misty, knowing he would never kill her to get it. But he had sensed it in the other girl. He walked over to a pool of boiling water.

" Show me the exact moment in which I sensed the Dreamstone." the water swirled, and showed Ash gently kissing Andrea's forehead.

" Could it be the boy then? No, he had determined it was the girl." Kurt muttered to himself. He waved his hand to make the image disappear, but something caught his eye.

" Go back! GO BACK! " he screamed at the water, once again the image appeared. Kurt waited for a second, and then he saw her. From behind one of the buildings, Misty came out. Her eyes widened as she saw Andrea and Ash kissing. She turned around and ran back the way she had come.

Of course, he hadn't noticed her back then. He had rushed off as soon as he had pinpointed the location. He walked tiredly up to a bench-like structure in the dim cave. He sat down and closed his eyes. It was his Misty.

Misty's head was pounding. She looked around and realized the room was completely white. She was lying on a not-so-soft bed. Then the room came into focus. She was inside the hospital. She closed her eyes and tried to go back to sleep and ignoring the pain. Ash had been right. she heard a soft 'click' and she turned head. Ash came in, almost speechless.

" What happened?" she asked, her voice was so raspy... She felt like she had swallowed sand.

" I don't know. One of the nurse found you in the room. You weren't checked in, you just appeared here or something. They got all you information, and called your roommate. She signed the papers and let me know where you were.

Misty sighed, and wished she hadn't. It hurt. Her ribs... maybe?

" Kurt knocked me against a tree. I guess I passed out."

" Maybe someone saw you and brought you in, but they didn't want to be questioned."

" No, It would have caused a fuss if someone was caught bringing me in. I think..." she stopped, as if not wanting to say it.

" What?"

" I think it was Kurt. When he killed Dean, he seemed to regret it. After Dean took the blow for me, he didn't finish me off. I tried to attack him and he just sent me home. Maybe... No, Kurt's evil" she shook her head slightly, and regretted the action.

" Look, the nurse gave you painkillers a few minutes ago, they should kick in soon. Just try to sleep."

Misty barely heard him as she felt herself drift off.

I'm so Sorry! A short chapter is better than no chapter at all, right? I'm about to run out of time on the computer. : ( Let me know what you think... And tune in next year for chapter 6! (Just kidding!)
