When your dreams come true
Chapter ten: Love (and Suicune) save the day!
"How can we get her out of here…?" Brock thought to himself.
"Ash, can you check the walls, see if there's any secret door or something?" Brock asked "Oh, but first check the door we came through and then the door that the rockets used…" Brock added "Unfortunately, I'm almost sure that the door that rockets used will only lead us to a staircase…" Brock thought but didn't say it because he could see that Ash was already desperate.
"Ash? Come on man, I need your help!" Brock said looking at Ash.
Ash was still looking at Misty. He couldn't believe what just happened… It was all his fault…
"It was my fault Brock, don't you understand?!" Ash said angry with himself.
"Stop it Ash!" Brock yelled "That's not going to help Misty! If you want to blame someone blame the rockets! They were the ones who shot Misty!" Brock said.
Ash looked Misty one more time.
"You're right Brock, now all I have to do is help Misty in every way I can!" Ash said and got up to do what Brock said earlier.
None of them noticed Suicune, the legendary pokemon. He was looking at Misty with a sad look…
"So, are you done with that?" Jenny asked angrily.
"You do want to be arrested, don't you?" the officer asked.
"No, what I DO want right now, is speak to your boss!" Jenny replied, sick of waiting.
"I am the boss…" the officer said.
Jenny was already seeing herself behind the bars, for the rest of hr life… Oh, ok, not that long, but at least for a couple of hours, before her parents paid the bail…Right, that would happen if this "officer" let her go… Anyway, she was almost saying "I'm sorry", AGAIN, when another officer, an older one, arrived.
"What's the problem Stevens?" the elder officer asked.
"Oh, nothing sir…" the annoying officer said.
"SIR? You mean that this is your boss?" Jenny asked angrily.
"Anything Ash?" Brock asked concerned, while covering Misty's wound with a bit of is sleeve.
"No…" Ash said desperately "What we going to do?"
"I…I really don't know Ash…" Brock said looking down.
Misty came to her senses and looked at Brock.
"Come on Brock-o, I don't want to see you like that…" she said smiling weakly.
"Oh Misty, you're awake!" Brock said surprised, and then remember that he shouldn't bother her with his worries.
"I'm just tired of waiting…Jenny is a bit late…" he said forcing a smile.
"Yeah right…" Misty said in disbelief.
Ash run towards them and leaned down.
"You're going to be fine Misty, don't worry…" he said trying to smile but letting a tear slip.
"Well, the fact that you're crying isn't much of a comfort…" Misty said sarcastically, laughing weakly but stopping right away because of the pain.
"Oh Misty…You can't die, ok?" Ash said tearfully.
"I don't think that depends on me…" she replied, with a faint smile.
"You don't understand Misty…You can't die because…because…Because I love you since I first saw you!" Ash confessed.
"I might be dying Ash, but I don't need your pity, you don't have to lie to make me feel better…" Misty said, and now her heart hurt more than the wound in her stomach.
"What?" Ash asked surprised.
But before he could tell her that he really mean it, she closed her eyes again, her face even paler…
"Misty? Misty wake up!" Ash yelled.
Brock just stood there crying.
"She's gone Ash…" he said sobbing.
"No, she can't be!!! She isn't, she's still breathing!" Ash said hopefully.
"But we can't do nothing for her…We don't know when we're getting out of here, and even if we left now, she wouldn't make it… She just lost too blood…"
"You're lying! Misty, wake up! Wake up!" Ash yelled desperately.
Suicune approached slowly and looked at Misty.
Ash and Brock looked at him, not knowing what he was going to do…
"And I told him that my friends were stuck in Tin Tower, in danger, because everyone knows that the tower can collapse at anytime, and this…"Officer" asks me my age, my name, asks me if one of my friends has mental disturbs…" Jenny said angrily.
"You're right miss, we're sorry. May I come with you and two more officers to help your friends…?" the older officer asked and after getting the two other officers he left the police station with Jenny.
"What is he doing?" Brock asked sobbing.
"I don't know…" Ash replied worried.
Suicune approached Misty and then his glow went stronger. Before Ash or Brock could do something, the light covered Misty and after a few seconds it disappeared.
"What the…" Brock said.
"She's healed!" Ash said excitedly when Misty opened her eyes.
Suicune look at them and you could almost see him smiling…
Ash and Brock went over to Misty and helped her sit down.
"Misty, are you ok?" Ash asked nervously.
"Yeah, I guess so…" Misty said, looking at her blood stained clothes.
"I can't believe in this…The real Suicune cured you!" Brock said excitedly.
"Where is he?" Misty asked looking around.
"He's right here…" Brock said turning around and seeing… Nothing!
"Where is he?" Brock asked surprised "I swear that he was right here just a few seconds ago…" he added confused.
"That doesn't matter now… What matters is that Misty's ok…" Ash said with a warm smile.
They were interrupted by a huge noise.
In the other room…
"I swear they were here when I left them…" Jenny said desperately. "Someone must really hate me…" Jenny thought, imagining herself behind the bars.
"Listen! I'm sure it's Jenny with the police! But they're in the wrong room…" Brock said laughing.
Ash, Misty and Brock started yelling, trying to be heard in the other room.
"Hey, they're yelling! They're in the next room!" Jenny said excitedly.
"Well, we have to knock the wall down…Because I can't see no door…" one of the officers said, looking confused.
"Hey guys, wait a minute, we're trying to knock down the wall…" Jenny informed.
"Ok, we can't go anywhere, so…" Ash said laughing.
A few minutes later…
"Oh, are you ok guys? How did you enter this room? Misty, why did you left the party? WHAT IS TEAM ROCKET DOING HERE?!" Jenny finally noticed the frozen bodies of the two rockets.
"Calm down Jenny, we're all right…" Ash answered Jenny.
"You have no idea what I've been through to get you out of here…" Jenny said sighing.
"I'm sure we can beat you…" Brock said smiling.
Ash, Brock, Jenny, Misty were outside the tower and the officers were taking care of Cloe and Ken…
"So you're saying that Team Rocket did all this to catch a legendary pokemon that probably doesn't exist?" Jenny asked laughing out loud.
Ash and Brock decided that they shouldn't tell Jenny about the "Misty incident"… They didn't want to draw attention to Suicune, they knew that people would try to catch him…Some mysteries should remain mysteries.
"Misty you're so quiet, what's wrong? You never told us why you left the party…" Jenny said concerned.
Misty looked at her angry.
"Oh, I'm just fine, and I left your party because… I wasn't feeling to well…" Misty lied.
"But you could tell us… We were worried to death when we saw that you disappeared!" Jenny said honestly.
"Oh you were? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you…" she said sarcastically "Well, I have a train to catch, I'm going back to Cerulean tonight." Misty said.
"Tonight? But it's so late Misty, you can sleep in my house tonight and we'll take you to the station tomorrow!" Jenny said.
"No thanks, I'm going tonight…" Misty replied "I can't bear to be here one more minute…" she thought sadly.
"I'll take you to the station…" Ash said.
"I don't need you to do that Ash." Misty said coldly.
"But I want to…" Ash said and grabbed her arm gently "See you later guys!" he said and winked (while Misty wasn't looking).
"Misty's acting strange…" Jenny said " Did I do something wrong?"
"Well, Misty can e hypnotised or just jealous…" Brock said laughing out loud.
"You already knew that she loved Ash?" Jenny asked.
"Who didn't?" he replied smiling.
"Ash…" she said grining.
"Yeah, but Ash is a special case…" Brock said " Look Jenny, what you did to help Ash and Misty was really nice…" Brock said honestly.
"Thanks, I'm a nice person… Or I usually am, when I'm not around stupid officers…" she added sarcastically.
"Yeah, what took you so long to get here?" Brock asked.
"You don't wanna know…" Jenny said sighing.
"Hey Misty, do you remember what I told you when we were at the tower?" Ash asked nervously.
"Oh Ash, you said so many things…" Misty said in an exasperated tone, but she knew what he was talking about.
"You know, about loving you…" he said shyly.
Misty felt like she was dying. "Now he's gonna tell me that he just said that because he didn't want me to die, he wanted me to hold on to something…" she thought bitterly.
"Look Ash, I know that you love Jenny and I know that you just said that because you didn't want me to give up…" Misty said trying to hold the tears.
"That's the thing Misty…" he started to say and Misty felt the tears rolling down her cheek, so she lowered her head " me and Jenny, we broke up. And we broke up because she understood that she didn't love, she just like me as a friend…"
"And you have your heart broken because you love her…" Misty said in a muffled voice "Oh! You're going to tell me that we can pretend that we're dating to make Jenny jealous?!" Misty suddenly looked at Ash, straight in the eyes.
"No Misty! No, God no!" Ash said shocked "I don't love her, I never loved her like a girlfriend! But when she asked me if a loved her… I was so lonely and confused… I thought that I loved her… But no, when I saw you again I understood that I love YOU, I always loved you!" Ash said, wiping Misty's tears away.
Misty looked at him in disbelief.
"So can you explain me why you told me that I was your best friend when I told you that I loved you?" Misty asked with a still muffled voice.
"You really mean that? When you told that I thought that you were telling that as a friend… I was going to tell you that I loved you, but I was just to afraid… I didn't you to leave me so I preferred to have you as a friend than not having you at all." Ash said with a warm smile.
"You…You really mean that?" Misty asked.
"Of course you silly!" Ash said and hugged her.
"Oh, how I wished for this day…" Misty thought, thanking God.
Ash broke apart and got on his knees.
"Misty Waterflower, I love you with all my heart… Do you want to be my girlfriend?" he asked with a gigantic smile on his face (I guess we can say a dumb smile…).
Misty pushed him up and gave him a passionate kiss.
When they broke apart Ash asked.
"Is that a yes?"
"It's a maybe… You have to kiss me a few more times to make me say yes…" she said with a devilish smile.
"I don't mind doing that… Just don't change your mind too quickly, ok?" Ash asked with the same devilish smile Misty had.
"You know I'm a tough girl…" Misty smiled and they kissed…over and over again.
From the Tin Tower, Suicune was observing the couple.
Misty looked at the tower and said to herself "Thank you Suicune, I'll never forget you!".
Jenny and Brock were near the police station, walking towards Jenny's house.
"That place brings back bad memories…" Jenny grinned.
"Hey, I think that they're calling us…" Brock said pointing to the entrance where someone was waving at them.
"Well, if we have to go, we have to go…" Jenny sighed.
A few moments later…
"Sorry to disturb you, but I need to make a report…" officer Stevens (the annoying officer) said.
"Well, I guess that Brock here can help you…" Jenny turned to face Brock but he wasn't there.
"What? BROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Jenny said when she saw him running away from the police station.
"Well miss, I guess that you have to stay with me for a little while…" the officer said.
"If I kill him right now I can say that it was in self defence… He is threatening my mental health…" Jenny thought.
"Sorry, can strangling be considered a crime?" Jenny said between clenched teeth.
"Excuse me?" the officer asked.
"I said that it would be a pleasure to help you…" Jenny replied thinking of what she was going to do when she caught Brock.
