While Ash was driving, his cell phone rang. "Hello?" Ash spoke into the phone.

"Ash?" A voice asked, "Ash is that you?

"Brock!" Ash exclaimed, "It's me!"

"Hey! Ash, how are you? Things going well? Do you know how Misty is?" He blabbered

Ash's thought's darkened at the thought of Misty. Was everyone going to rub it in his face? "I'm fine, things are great, and last time I checked Misty just got married to Rudy," He said angrily

Brock's eye's widened. (A/N: yeah right) Tracy had told him about Rudy and how he had wanted Misty to stay on Trovita. She had declined but now why would she go back? He had to make an excuse to get off the phone or Ash would take his anger out on him. "Uhh…I think I hear Suzie calling me. Got to go Ash!" He said nervously

* click * Furious, Ash threw the phone down. Why did Brock remind him about Misty? He had just about forgotten it then Brock called. While Ash had been thinking and talking, he had unconsciously driven all the way to the league building. He parked the car and walked in…



Misty walked around just plain bored. Mari was at school and Rudy was at the gym. She had played with her Pokemon and called some people but couldn't think of any thing to do now. She decided to go to the beach and try to get a suntan or catch some new Pokemon. But she had to call Rudy to tell him she was going. That was like a rule to Rudy.

After calling him, she left. When she got there she laid out a towel and went straight into the water since she already had her bathing suit on. Suddenly something caught her eye. It was a Qwilfish! She quickly grabbed Corsola's

Pokeball and sent her out. "Corsola, Spike cannon!" Corsola obediently obeyed, "great, now tackle and then take down!"

The Qwilfish was out before it could make a move. "Pokeball, go!" She yelled.

Within seconds the ball glided back to her hand. "Yay, I caught a Qwilfish!" She cheered, "Good job, Corsola. Return!

'Maybe I should spend my time training Qwilfish,' She thought…

What?!?!?!?!" Ash nearly screamed

The Elite Four had just told him he should take a year off because they were going to host a tournament so that a worthy opponent could actually challenge Ash. It seemed like a good thing but Ash hated not working and to not work for a year, was like living in Hell.

"Look Ash, it may seem bad but can you take a vacation and maybe meet a girl or something," Bruno said, ending the last remark slyly.

Ash reddened at this and shot Bruno a glare. Bruno just grinned.

"You have to go, Ash. Don't worry about money because you'll still get paid," Lance stated firmly.

Ash hesitantly agreed and then departed to McDonalds and Blockbuster since he had promised his Pokemon a movie and McDonalds.

"What should I do for a job, Pikachu?" He asked his best pal, who was buckled up in the backseat.

"Pika chu pi chu, Pikapi (Don't worry we'll think of something, Ash)" He stated

Well that's another chapter and it might be a while before I update…

Anyways! I want 15 reviews at least. That's not so much to ask for.

Thanks for the advice, Anysia. This chapter's dedicated to you! R&R!!!
