Chapter XV- The Dream Invader
It was dark and scary. I was walking through a dark hall, twords a light. I suddenly
stopped and looked forward. A siluete of a woman with long hair stood in the light. She
walked twords me and reached her hand out. I couldn't control my movements; My arm
lifted to touch her face, and a tear ran down it. She leaned twords me, and I suddenly felt
like I had been pulled through several dimesions; I woke up. I sat up breathing hard,
sitting on the ground, in my sleeping bag. I sat thinking about the day before, about how
the Gastly had tried to kiss me, and I shivered in the cold. I grabbed the alarm clock and
stared for a few moment's, my eyes adjusting to the dark. It read midnight, no sooner or
later, right on the dot. I looked down at Erika who was fast asleep next to Charizard to
keep her warm. I stood up finally, and looked around. It was spooky in the forest of Route
#12. I picked up Raichu, who was still asleep in my arms, and placed him down next to
Charizards tail. I picked up my sleeping bag and walked again slowly and quietly back to
where Erika slept next to him, and I put the sleeping bag back down next to her, and fell
back asleep. I didn't have the dream again that night.
The next morning, I could barely remember what had happened, all I could
remember was the tear that fell down that womans face, it seemed to almost worry me.
"So, someone got cold after all hugh?" Erika said as she grabbed some sticks.
"What? Oh, yeah." I casually replied as I picked up some sticks as well.
"Still asleep? Well, a nice hot cup of tea should fix that! ^_^" She said as she placed half
of the sticks in a circle, and the rest she stacked to make like a tepee inside of it. "Hey,
can you hand me those big sticks over there?" She said and pointed to a pile of sticks
behind me. I picked some up silently and handed them to her.
"Thanks!^_^ Marcy? o_o()" She looked at me, and said, "What's wrong, don't feel good?"
"Something like that..." I said as I laid back on the ground looking up at the light blue
sky. I could tell she was staring at me, it's a funny feeling you get that runs up your spine.
I could hear her bang the large sticks into the ground with the other large sticks then get
out the kettel from her back pack.
"I gotta go get some water over there ok? I'll be right back." She walked over to the edge
of the forest where the grass met the water and bent down to get some water. I looked
around the camp and found my back pack before she got back.
"I'm gonna go change quickly ok? I'll be back before you know it." I walked back farther
into the forest and changed. When I got back, Erika had the tea ready and I sat down on a
stump across from her with the campfire between us.
"Would you like some crackers?" She asked and handed me the plate around the fire.
"Thanks." I said and took three from the pile, then put it down on the ground. As she
finished munching on some crackers, I drank some tea and stared at the fire.
"I'll be back, I gotta go change and get some more fire wood." She went off carrying her
back pack with her. Even though she had her back pack, she had forgotten her pokeballs.
I looked at each of them at stopped at Gastlys; suddenly, that awful feeling I had in my
dream returned, and I remembered the rest of it. How the girl leaned over, as if to kiss me.
"Impossible" I muttered to myself. A few minutes later, Erika came back with a new
green T-shirt on that had written on it in neon blue, 'Save the Trees'
"Hey, it's the only clean one I had!" She gave me a look like, 'Don't ask.' so, I didn't.()
"Well, are you ready to surf?" Erika asked and finished rolling up her sleeping bag. I put
the fire out and asked Charizard to hold the kettle because it was still to hot to put away.
"Let's go!" I yelled and grabbed Gyrados' pokeball.
"That's more like you!" She threw out Vaporeons pokeball into the water, and it made a
funny plop sound, like an egg being dropped into a pool. I did the same, and out came my
Gyrados and her Vaporeon. They both lowered their heads down so we could climb on. I
had to put Raichu on before me, so he could sit infront. It was hard for Erika to get on
Vaporeon at first, but she got the hang of it after a few pit-stops. On the hopefully last
stop, I asked,
"How much longer till we reach route #13? It's almost five o'clock!"
"I don't think it's much further..." Erika remarked and pulled out the map. She traced our
route on the map as I watched the sun set behind her. "Well, If I'm reading this correctly,
if we take a right here, we should be on route #13 and we can camp out again in the forest
nearby." We walked right until we came to a huge grove full of trees.
"Great..." I said with sarcasm. I called back Gyrados into his pokeball and Erika called
back Vaporeon. "Well, here we go again." I said and rolled out my sleeping bag.
"What do you mean?" Erika asked as she rolled hers out next to mine.
"I've had nightmares..." I said slowly unzipping my sleeping bag.
"Nightmares? Is that what's been bothering you?" She asked and looked up at me
surprised.
"These aren't just normal nightmares, about being chased by creepy monsters, or being
eaten by bugs, this is much worse." I said and began to shake again like I had when I
woke up from my first nightmare.
"Like how?" Erika grabbed some crackers out of her bag and offered them to me, but I
refused.
"They almost feel real, as if they have happened before or are going to happen." I slipped
into my sleeping bag, not even bothering to undress. "I, don't want to sleep, but...I have
to." I dosed off as the sun fell down. I was so tired from the night before, I didn't want to
wake up again.
"Well, I'll be here to watch you. I'll ward off any bad dreams..." I could hear Erika say this
as I fell asleep. "You don't have to worry. Charizard and Raichu are here too..."
It was another dark room. But this room didn't seem to have any walls. There was
no end to this darkness. I was younger in this dream, only a little girl. I walked alone,
looking for something anything that might help me see. Then, suddenly, out of no where,
I fell off of a bridge. I hurtled down and down. I could feel my body hit the ground. I
didn't wake up, but I wanted to. Then, I was back in the dark room. There was a girl,
holding me and crying, it was the same girl as before, younger, her eyes hidden, and her
face full of tears. Was I dead? No...my arm raised, and she grasped it, holding on tightly.
"Leave me here..." I said. It was excrusiating to speak. "I can't. He'll find you." The girl's
voice. The first time I heard her voice. It was soft, and had a flow to it that surrounded
someone of regal manner. I heard a noise from somewhere in the blackness. Loud and
threatening, it roared like a lion, and hissed like a snake. "You can't take her!" The girl
yelled out and stood arms outstretched infront of me. She appeared to be blocking me
from something that I couldn't see. Then, it went blank. Totally black. No girl, no
monster, just me and the silence. I was much older now, older than I am in real life.
Someone came up behind me, and put their arms around my waist."Hugh?" I said and
tried to turn around. It wasn't a bear huge, but a loving hug that held me close. "Do you
remember that?" It was the girls voice, older, as old as me. Then I suddenly woke up.
"Ahh...oo...ahhh..oo." I gasped for air as I sat up straight. "Erika?" I said, and looked
around to see that she was still up. I looked at the clock, and not to surprisingly, it read
midnight again.
"You stayed up all this time to watch me?" I asked wiping sweat off my face.
"Well, actually..." She began and smiled, "I had a nightmare too. I woke up right before
you did." We both laid back and stared at the starfilled sky.
"Maybe, we should consider cutting our journey to Fuchsia a little shorter..." I said as I
watched a shooting star.
"What!?" Erika sat up in disbelief. I had always been the one who wanted to explore
ruins, the reserch lab, I even snuck into Pokemon Masion on Cinnibar Island every so
often. "And now you want to dystroy this opportunity to catch wild pokemon!?"
"Well, if these dreams are because we are in the forest too often, or haven't gotten enough
sleep, it could be a good idea." I said sitting back up to face Erika.
"Maybe... maybe you're right." Erika said and laid back down facing Charizard.
"Then it's settled. No more surfing. Tommorow morning, we begin our flight to Fuchsia
City." I stayed up all night, but Erika was asleep almost as soon as she had laid down.
The next morning we both woke up at 6:00 and changed. We ate a breakfast of tea
and crackers with some jam that Erika had brought from home. Then, we began our
flight. I hoped onto Pidgeot, with Raichu sitting on my lap, and Erika got onto Charizard.
"Well, if we keep flying west for a while, then go Southwest, we should get there by
4:00." She said and put the map back into her back pack.
"Then let's get moving!^_^" I yelled, and Pidgeot took off after Charizard. We flew side
by side and I could talk to Erika as we flew.
"What did you dream about last night?"
"It started off that I was standing talking to you in this huge black room, but then,
something came after me. I looked back and it was Gastly chasing me. Crazy hugh?"
"I can't remember much of my dream, just that I got hurt, and a little girl was holding
me."
"Do you think that this is because of Gastly?"
"I don't know. But if I have that dream again, I'll ask the girl what is going on."
"Can you do that?"
"I hope so."
We flew all the way to Fuchsia City. It was a beautiful town with lots of pinkish-
maroon colored buildings. We watched as we landed just past the enterance to the Safari
Zone. All the pokemon that you could catch in five hours, but only using special
pokeballs.
"Let's see..." Erika had pulled the map out while I was looking at the sign that was posted
infront of a pen. There was a beautiful Lapras inside. It had little horns that currled at the
top of it's head, and had a tortise-like shell on it's back. "The pokemon Center should be
right over there." Erika said and pointed to a small building that had a pokeball on top of
it.
"Great we'll drop our pokemon off, get some food and sleep well." I said and called back
Pidgeot.
