Chapter 4- "Double Date Dilemma"
Ash, tired and a bit annoyed by Joey's teasing of his problems, dragged his feet home. When he got in he saw Misty looking at the door, and Brock talking to Mr. Mime. "Look, I am sorry I took your broom, but you can't hate me forever!" "Mr. Mime..."
"I got you a present!" Brock revealed behind his back a brand new broom.
"Mr. Mime!" "Buds?" "Mr. Mr. Mr. Mime!" "Ash, your home," Misty called to Ash, "I want to ask you something." Ash sat down next to Misty and looked at her. "What's up?"
"Ash, Brock gave a good suggestion" "What is that?" "He thinks it would be nice if we went on a double date, May and him, and you a me.
Ash had no whatsoever idea how Brock got the girl. Either by pure luck or something else. Brock quoted that, "I was just nice to her and she just fell for me, and I fell for her." Of course, Ash didn't believe it. (Not even me!) But he did. And that is all anyone could say.
"Ok, it would be cool" Ash said, grinning, "Great! I'm going to take a shower, and get into some nice clothes." With that she walked upstairs and into the bathroom. "Girls.." Ash groaned "You can't live without them." Brock grinned. "Well since she is getting into nice clothes, I might want to get some nice clothes on too." "I should too, see you!" Brock left, and Ash went upstairs. He went into his closet, in his room, and looked at his clothes. He took a pair of tan khakis, and a dark green shirt, then waited outside the bathroom door for Misty to stop showering. It seemed ages until she stopped and walked out, wrapped in towels. "Shower is all yours." she giggled as she walked into the guest room. Togetic was sitting on the bed, looking at Misty. "Stay there Togetic, while I go change." "Togetic!" She walked into the closet and changed into a red shirt and blue jeans, yet she kept her hair down. She walked out and asked advice from Togetic. "How do I look?" "Toge!" "Should I keep my hair down like this? I think it looks a bit better this way!" "...Toge...tic!" "I'll take that as a yes." They both walked outside, only to bump into Ash, fully dressed. "You look great!" they said simultaneously "Toge?" "Togetic, will you be ok with Pikachu while were gone?" "Toge, Toge to ge! tic!" "Ok lets go downstairs, Brock and May are waiting. They walked downstairs to see Brock and Misty, dressed in casual clothes, and waiting.
"Let's go!" Ash said "Let's go see a movie? Ok with everyone?" "Yes" Everyone replied.
They were driven by a cab to a nearby movie theater, but when they arrived, they couldn't agree on what to see! "How about Pokeship?" Brock suggested, "It's about an Eevee who is rich, and a Charmander, who is poor, who fall in love on a ship that sinks later on." "Or how about I Know What You Did Last Battle, where a trainer's Pokemon try to kill him because he battled his Pokemon too hard." Ash suggested. "I like Pokeship better" Misty said. "Me too" May said. "Outnumbered Ash." Brock grinned. So they bought their tickets, and sat down in the movie theater. Brock sat the farthest down, then May, then Misty, and finally Ash. Brock put his arm around May, and Ash and Misty held hands. The movie went smoothly until Misty leaned over to Ash and asked, "Ash could you get me some popcorn?" "Sure Misty!"
He walked out of the theater and to the concession stand. He ordered a large popcorn, and paid, only to bump into a familiar face. "Hey Ash..." "Hello Duplica." Ash said in a monotone voice. "Are you here with someone?"
"Yes, my girlfriend, Misty." "So you two are a couple now, that's nice." "Yeah it is." "Ok, that is cool. Bye" "Bye" Ash walked back to his seat and handed the popcorn to Misty. "Thank you Ash." She kissed Ash on the cheek. "No problem."
The movie went on for a few more minutes until someone sat to the right of Ash...Duplica! "Hey guys" She whispered "Hi Duplica" Misty said. Ash leaned over to Misty, "You've met her already?"
"Yes, I met her outside the PokeShop."
"Well I met her in Pallet Forest." Duplica interrupted their hushed conversation, "Mind if I sit here?" "Not at all." Misty said. "Shh!" Brock said, keeping his eyes glued to the big screen. Ash looked at the screen, he wanted to keep his mind off what would happen, he knew that Duplica wouldn't just choose to sit there...
"Charmander!" The Charmander grabbed the Eevee by the hands and rushed from the door, down a large set of stairs, into a parking lot, and into a car...
Suddenly Ash's right hand was moved from it was, it was feeling something, something round, he looked to his right to see what horror Duplica was doing to his hand, pressure broke him and he said, "I got to go to the bathroom!" And rushed off.
He looked in the mirror as he splashed some water in his face. "What is going on? I love Misty, but Duplica seems to be trying to steal me...she never acted this way, I don't understand!" The door opened, Ash was again horrified of who opened it. "Duplica! This is the boy's bathroom!!!" "So? I love you!" "But I love Misty, and I will NEVER betray her!" "Please, drop that runt and go with a real girl." "Sure, do you know where I can find one?" "Oh your so funny, come here and give me a kiss." She started to walk towards Ash, Ash backed away, slowly and at the same speed as she was coming towards him, but he backed up into the bathroom wall. "Great!" Ash groaned, "Just my luck!"
"Boy, Haunter Potter was way too long." Joey started, as he walked out of one of the movie theater, "I shouldn't have had so much soda, I must tinkle!" He opened the door to see the green hair girl right in front of Ash. "What in the World Wild of Sports are you doing Ash?!?" "Don't ask me! Ask her!" "Can I please get some privacy?!" Duplica groaned "Any time now!" "Oh ok, Mr. Snippy." Joey said, he grabbed Duplica by the shoulders and threw Duplica outside the bathroom, then leaned up the door so no one could get in. "Explain." Ash explained all that happened, and when he was done, Joey laughed. "Boy, I thought I had problems! But you!" He laughed again, "Make certain Misty doesn't get wind of this." He opened the door, glanced around then looked back, "Coast is clear, let's go." They walked out, only to see Misty and Duplica walk towards them. "Look, there he is." Misty said, running to Ash, "I was worried, Ash are you ok?"
"Oh he was ok..." Duplica said in a velvety voice. Everyone looked at Duplica. "What do you mean?" Misty asked her voice had some anger in it. "You know your boyfriend is a good kisser." "How do you know?" Misty voice grew even angrier.
"Experience." Misty turned red and glared at Ash. Ash and Joey, both taken aback how mad Misty looked, started to sweat. "Look," Joey said in a high pitched voice, "I know Ash, and he wouldn't leave you!" "How would you know." Misty voice was a deathly cold voice. "I know Ash!" "Misty, I wouldn't do something like that to you!" "I can't believe you." "Why can't you believe your own boyfriend?" Joey said. Misty glared at Duplica. "Well...now..." Duplica held up her finer and pointed to Ash. "Next time, you won't be so lucky!" and with that she walked off. "Oh Ash, I don't know why I couldn't believe you." "It's ok" They embraced in a hug. "Your both sorry, now someone make a comment so we can all laugh and go home." "Oh no we don't Pokeship is still playing..." "Yes, blah blah, hah, lets go home! And help us if that crazy girl comes back."
Ash, tired and a bit annoyed by Joey's teasing of his problems, dragged his feet home. When he got in he saw Misty looking at the door, and Brock talking to Mr. Mime. "Look, I am sorry I took your broom, but you can't hate me forever!" "Mr. Mime..."
