Chapter 9
The Journal
~~~~~~~~~~~Recap on last Chapt.~~~~~~~~~
He had gotten everyone's attention not to mention he got Pikapi and Piakchupi to stop fighting and look at him.
~That's enough fighting from the both of you! You each have training to do and I suggest you start now, you have nothing to worry about, I will heal who ever gets injured while training.~ They both nodded and started to use their powers against eachother and all everyone else could do is watch.
"Wow, we should have had Ho-oh with us when were traveling, it sure would have shut those to up better than I could." I heard Brock say, and all I could do was nod and then look back at my two favorite humans who where now training as hard as they could against eachother, although I could tell that they really didn't want to fight against eachother, but they knew they had no other choice, they had to get strong. The whole world was depending on them...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*
*5 months have past, and only one to go until we meet this Myra girl... I've been training with Ash during that time, and to tell you the truth we've gotten even more stronger then when we trained with the legendaries. I just hope we're strong enough to defeat Myra...*
I was on a rock by a waterfall that was in the mountain, which was close to where we were staying with the legendaries. I've tried to stop the fact that I love Ash, from coming into my head, but that's pretty hard to do with having to be around him 24/7 just like when we were kids.
It's not that I don't want to be around him, I mean I missed him a lot when I wasn't with him. The thing that upset me the most was that I wasn't able to be there and see him win the title of a Pokemon Master...
I got my backpack and put it on my lap so I could get something that I really treasured... His hat. The old pokemon hat he had won by sending in and I quote "About a million postcards" to get it, the one he surprisingly gave to me before I left... I sighed and put it on, then I looked below me at the lake that connected with the waterfall and looked at my reflection.
* I don't look that bad with it on.* I giggled at the thought of that.
Then, as always, my thoughts drifted off to a certain pokemon master, I love him, it was pretty hard to admit it to myself at first. Whenever I get the courage to tell him, that stupid dream I had comes back and hits me full force. I, Ms. tuff Misty Waterflower, am afraid to tell a guy how I feel about him. I used to think that the only things that could scare me were bug pokemon and ghosts, but after traveling with Ash for like 3-4 years, I discovered that I was completely and totally wrong...
I can clearly remember all the times I had to run for my life just because Ash had to go and look for trouble in every possible way. I remember the things that scared me the most though, they were when Ash was in trouble, and him alone... I sort of wish Mewtwo hadn't given us our memory of that day back, cause when he did, I felt all the emotions I had felt when I saw Ash get hit by their beams and turn into stone, I almost cried when I saw him in my mind and I couldn't believe that had happened at all.
Another time was with Lugia, I was horrified when I saw Ash falling from Lugia's back, and then landing in the ocean and not moving. Melody wanted to go after him, but I refused, and said that I would go for him, but I think that I gave a little to much of my feelings away to her there. I'm just glad she didn't say anything afterwards. After I had gotten him to shore I was afraid of the worst, because, he wasn't waking up... I'm just glad he survived and was able to keep the world from being flooded.
"Hey Mist!" I jumped startled by the voice that had interrupted my thoughts. I looked back to see the person I had been thinking about, and the only one that in my opinion, had the right to call me 'Mist'.
"Ash, don't you dare ever sneak up on me like that again!" I might love him but I really had a big urge to hit him on the head with my mallet just then...
"Heh, sorry Mist, but Ho-oh wanted me to come and get you cause he said he's got something to show us."
I got up from my spot on the rock and went over to him."Hmm, I wonder what he wants to tell us..."
"Not sure, but we better get over there soon before he gets mad, heh, unless you want him to yell like he did when we first got here..."
"Ugh, I seriously thought I was gonna go death." Then the both of us started walking and laughing along the way.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I was wondering what Ho-oh wanted to tell us while Misty and I were walking towards camp, that is until I noticed what was on Misty's head. My hat. I couldn't help but smile, I mean I didn't think she would have kept it this long, but I guess I was wrong. I looked over again and thought...
*I'm glad I was wrong...*
We met Ho-oh in an adjoining cave, he said that he needed to talk to me and Misty alone.
"Hey Ho-oh." I said
"So, what did you want to talk to us about?" Misty said, still by my side.
~I needed to give you something that is rightfully yours Ash...~ With that he knelt his head down to give me something rectangular in his mouth. I looked at the book in my hand and then looked up at him again.
"This is mine?"
He nodded and said, ~It's a journal, your fathers journal...~
I stood there shocked and opened mouthed while that information sinked in. Then I heard Misty speak.
"That book is Ash's dad's journal?", Ho-oh nodded in response,"Well, then what did you want me for?"
~I'm sure that you will want to read what is in that journal as well.~
I started walking back to the waterfall, knowing that Misty would be curious by now and would follow. Which she did.
I sat on the rock that Misty was on when I came and got her and then felt her sit by me a few seconds later.
I waited awhile before opening the book I had in my hands, I was still surprised to have my dad's journal in my hands.
"Are you gonna open it?" Misty whispered to me, I knew she really wanted to know why Ho-oh thought she would want to read it too, but she still wasn't going to push me into opening it.
I nodded and then opened it to see what was in the book I knew nothing about but belonged to someone I knew I had loved even though I only knew him for a short time.
Misty leaned in to read along with me, the first entries were about his pokemon journey and then when he finally became a pokemon master. Then there was when he and my Mom met and then years later got married. I could tell Misty really liked that part, but she said nothing about it and neither did I. But then after that there was something that took us both by surprise...

Journal Entry- Satoshi Ketchum
November 29, 1988
Today is a day I will never forget...
I was at home and enjoying my time off with my wife Delia and was so happy since there was the great news that she had given me yesterday... I was gonna be a father to a baby boy. I was overjoyed by the news as anyother father would be, but that all changed when I got some other news later that day.
My best friend Andrew [erm, I couldn't think of any other name lol] came to my house and told me that I was needed to come with him and that it was urgent. I couldn't tell Delia where we were going it would be too dangerous if she knew. I told her that I needed to go to Indigo Plateau for a meeting, she didn't believe me I could see it in her eyes, but she new that it was important and that I had to go...
I said good-bye and told her not to have the baby until I came back, since she was about nine months pregnant, she smiled and told me that she wouldn't and with that me and Andrew went off.
When we were in the forest near Pallet, I asked him what was the matter, and he told me that Giovani the leader of team rocket had gotten out of hand. Before he wasn't really a threat but for some reason he's become even more evil then usual. Andrew told me that he had already gone to check it out and that he had sensed some sort of inhumanly evil in Giovani.
"What do you mean?" I asked
Then he said,"Well lets just say that this won't be easy and that we're no longer the only ones with powers..."
"So that's why they asked us to handle this?" He nodded and then I asked," But what about Rose?"
"They asked her to come and help as well, but I persuaded her to stay home, I didn't want to scare her, but I don't want to take any chances, if something happens to me I want her there to take care of my girls."
I knew what he meant and how much it hurt him to say that. I told him that everything would be fine and that he would be going back to his wife and daughters after we took care of Giovani. Andrew had 4 little girls, the youngest was about 1 year old, I saw her when I had visited his house before returning to Pallet from another mission. The four of them were happy little girls, the three oldest loved swimming, I got to take care of the youngest one, Misty, I could tell that she really wanted to join her sisters in the pool. I had to hold on to her so she wouldn't crawl over there. She was an energetic little girl, with red hair like her mother's and green-blue eyes like her father's. I knew there was something special about her, cause everytime I looked at her I kept on thinking about Delia and the baby we were going to have. I couldn't wait for the two of them to become friends someday.
We had finally arrived to Viridian where Giovani had his gym, we've tried to close it many times but we've never had enough evidence against him. We flew up to the top of the roof so no one would notice us and got in through a door that was up there. We walked around quietly as to not get any attention from the guards and other rockets that were there. That is until I tripped on my shoelace and landed hard on the floor.
"Satoshi..." Andrew was pretty annoyed at that, I'm just glad that we were to busy fighting off the rockets that he forgot to yell at me, cause he can have a pretty hot temper when he gets annoyed too much... [lol remind u of someone? Hope so lol ^.^]
We ran to where we sensed Giovani's presence and blowed open the doors, there he was sitting and waiting in his chair.
"So Satoshi, Andrew, you finally made it..." Then he smirked and said,"To bad you'll be staying here permanently..."
"We'll see about that!" I said.
Then without warning he got up and started glowing a pitch dark black and then he attacked us. We tried everything to stop him and attacked with all our might, but there was only one way of stopping him...
"Satoshi! get the bottle!"Andrew told me.
"What? Why?" He didn't answer, he now had Giovani in a headlock and started to have his green energy surround him. I knew what he was going to do...
"Andrew!, you can't do this you won't sur...!"
"I know but it's the only way to stop him and there's no way I'm going to let him destroy the world that my family lives in!"
"But..." I knew he was right, there was no other way to stop him, but Andrew had to sacrifice his life to do so and before I could stop him, he released all of the energy he had and then him and Giovani fell to the ground. I went running over to their side, but before I could check on Andrew I had to get the dark energy that was now free and out of Giovani's body into the bottle. When that was done I put my arm under Andrew and sat him up, he had his eyes slightly opened.
"Satoshi..."
"Ya Andrew..." I started to feel a big lump in my throat, my best friend was dying in my arms...
"Say good-bye to Rose and the girls for me and tell them that no matter what I'm still there for them and I will always love them..." I nodded and then sadly watched as his eyes closed one last time and he took his last breath...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I couldn't believe it, my dad died so that my sisters and me wouldn't have to suffer...
I looked at Ash, I could tell he was thinking about it too, but for some reason I knew that he was even sadder than I was.
He looked up at me and I could see the tears threatening to come out...
'What's wrong Ash?"
"I, we know what happened to your dad and I'm sorry about that Mist, but I still don't know what happened to my dad. I mean the only thing the rest of this says is that he took and hid the bottle so no one would be able to find it and open it, then it tells about when I was born a few weeks later, but it doesn't even give a clue about what happened to him..."
I understood what he felt, up until now I've always wondered what ever happened to my dad... I reached over and hugged him, hoping that I could comfort him at least a little bit. He hugged me back and placed his head untop of mine.
We stayed like that for a while, when suddenly a thought came to my mind...
"Ash?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you think that bottle has anything to do with..." He tensed up and then said,"Myra..."
We looked at eachother and then silently decided that we had to tell everyone else, so we got up and went to tell the others...
To be continued...
YES!!!! I'm finally done!!! woo hoo!! woopi!!! I'd like to say thanks to everyone who has reviewed so far and Rosy for being a great friend as always!!! Oh and if you guys wanna know what happened to Ash's dad then your gonna have to read the Prequel I have here lol oh and don't forget to please r&r that one too. Well i g 2g c ya!!!
Love always,
Mony
