Once Upon a Dream

            Once upon a dream, it's when I met you! Once upon a dream-it goes right by! Once upon a dream-I felt a yearning. And once upon a dream-I loved you!

            Four years-it had been four years and I was still with Ash.  I couldn't break away just to find her; it would be too hard for him.

            And me.

            Curled up next to Ash, I felt drowsiness warm my body and I shut my eyes.  Seven years and I still hadn't found her.  I felt hurt and something gnawed at my insides.  I tried to make it go away, but it stayed.  What was hurting me so badly?  I needed Misty to put a bandage on it, but I knew it couldn't be cured.  What was it though?

            Loneliness?

I shook my head.  I had plenty of friends.  There was Ash, Misty, Brock, and then all of their Pokemon, and yet I felt empty.

            What ever happened to her?  What ever happened to Sunny?

            Oh, sure, humans claimed they discovered Pichu, but I knew before them, all of us did.  The Pokemon, I mean.  Sunny-good name for her.  She was an adorable Pichu-MY Pichu, mind you.  And then I was taken; puff!  I was Ash's and Sunny was gone. 

            I loved her.  I loved her walk, how graceful it was.  How she always talked of pleasant things.  Never the past, always the future.  I loved her smile, how it lit up any room; and her yellow fur, bright as the sun.

            But most of all, I loved the way she danced.  I used to dance with her and she was so light and smiley-brighter than a Thundershock.

            It went so fast, like a dream.

Once upon a dream-it clouds my mind. Once upon a dream-your smile's a fairy tale.  Once upon a dream-I was with you. And once upon a dream-I loved you!

            I wanted to wake Ash up, tell him about my aching, but Ash was too happy.  He and Misty were dating-I knew that would happen. And anyway, Ash couldn't understand me. 

            Tears welled in my eyes and it reminded me of when Ash turned to stone.  I let out a muffled cry and tears cascaded down my cheeks.  I curled up and buried my head into my tail.  I felt Ash stirring beside me.

            "Pikachu?" he asked me?  I looked at him, trying to hide my tears, but he grasped my face.

            "Are you-crying?"

            I wanted to shock him, but I held it in.  Ash had good intentions and I tried to smile.  Ash looked at me?  "What's wrong?" he asked and I escaped his grasp, sprinting out of the room and out the door.

            The cool air of night hit me like a Body Slam and I blinked several times.  The busy street was alight with lamps and the moon peeped in and out of clouds.  There was a thumping and I turned around.  There, running down the street was a bright yellow Pichu!

            And then it faded away.  I shook my head.  I was seeing things; I was too upset.

            I stared at the sky, and my eyes filled with tears.

            "Sunny…" I whispered and shut my eyes, letting out the tears inside.

Did you like it? I did! Cool beans!
