Okay, Sorry this Chapter came so late. I had a really bad computer virus to deal with.

Anyways, here's the next one.

Oh, and there's a song in this one! Free cookie for anyone who can guess it!

Chapter 7

After that day, Misty never considered that going too far that one time would get her pregnant. However, a few days later, it was nearing lunch, and she found herself having a strange craving for two of the things she hated most in the world, carrots and peppers. She found that kind of strange, but then she remembered something Daisy told her a month ago.

Flashback

"You know Misty, during this pregnancy, I sometimes find myself having an urge to eat things I don't like." Daisy said to her on the phone.

"Really?" Misty asked her.

"Yea, so look for that as a hint if you ever think you might be pregnant, okay?"

"Thanks for the tip."

End Flashback

After remembering that, she wondered if it was possible, that against all odds, she was pregnant. Luckily for her, there was one last home pregnancy test in the house. She took the home pregnancy test, and waited patiently for the results. She knew she wouldn't have to wait long.

She slowly looked at it, being very worried. The test showed positive. She was shocked to say the least. She felt happiness inside. She felt happy that a little baby was growing inside of her. She knew the test to be right, as it was the most accurate one in the world. In fact, people had nicked it "The error proof test." To her, the best thing about this was that it was her birthday. She thought in her mind what a great gift this was.

However, her thoughts soon turned to sadness, as she remembered what Dr. Haydon had told her. The thought that her baby wouldn't survive entered her mind. She even wondered if there was anything she could do to give her baby a chance at surviving. She decided to call up Dr. Haydon and set up an immediate appointment.

Misty walks up to the phone, and dials a number. She waits patiently for an answer.

"Hello?" Asked a male voice over the other end.

"Hello, Dr. Haydon. It's Misty."

"Hi Misty. Anything the matter?"

"I'm pregnant."

"Misty, there's something I need to tell you. Meet me at my office at one o' clock. You think you can make it?"

"Yea, I can make it."

"Good. I'll see ya then."

"Bye."

With that, Misty hung up. She then wrote a note for Ash in case he came home soon from a match he was having. She soon left, and went to see Dr. Haydon.

Misty arrived at Dr. Haydon's office a few minutes early, and was waiting patiently for him. He soon arrived and sat down at his desk.

"So, what did you have to tell me in private?" Misty asked him.

"I had some time off yesterday, so I went through your files." Dr. Haydon started telling her. "I had found that you had some time ago developed a rather unique immune system."

Misty just gave Dr. Haydon a look that told him she was confused.

"Let me explain. The way your condition works is that at some point, during the pregnancy, it will inject the baby with a very unique virus. There is no known cure for it. Contrary to that, from the moment the virus enters the baby, it is only a matter of minutes before it dies."

Misty was feeling great sadness after hearing that.

"However, your baby just might have a chance."

Misty was shocked to hear that.

"Your baby could very well survive Misty. Your immune system has a way of killing off deadly viruses."

Misty was confused again, which Dr. Haydon easily saw.

"Let me explain. When you were young you were diagnosed with a deadly virus. One that everyone was certain you wouldn't survive from. However, a few days later, you had woken up completely free of the virus. We then ran several tests, and found that you hold a very unique immune system that ended up killing the virus."

"I don't understand what that has to do with my baby surviving."

"In rare cases, Misty, a baby can inherit the very same and unique immune system a parent has. There's only a small chance of that happening. However, if your baby does develop it, then it will survive. It will survive, because it will kill the virus on it's own. If it can develop it in time."

A ray of hope suddenly entered Misty's body. "You're saying that, my baby just might survive?"

"Yes, though it is small."

Misty felt happy inside. She felt like crying tears of joy. "Thank you, Dr. Haydon."

"Good luck to you Misty." He said shaking her hand.

With that, Misty left the office and went home. She had now received a second great present. Finding out the fact that her baby actually had a chance at surviving. She soon got home, where she found Ash waiting for her.

"Hi honey, how did you do today?" Misty asked Ash when she got home.

"Great, Sceptile came through for me, and we won three to zero." Ash answered her.

"That's great Ash."

"Also, get this, when I returned him to Professor Oak's, he said that ever since May's wedding, Sceptile and Meganium have been hitting it on each other. He has a feeling that something may happen soon."

"Really?" Misty asked surprised. "Well I hope things go well for them."

"So, I saw your note. Why did you see Dr. Haydon today?" Ash asked her.

"Ash, we need to talk." She said in a rather serious tone.

"What is it Misty?"

Misty sat down next to Ash, and looked him straight in the eye. "I'm… I'm pregnant."

"What?" Ash asked in disbelief.

Misty told Ash everything. The fact that she was pregnant, how she was once hit by a deadly virus, and how she has a unique immune system that could be passed on to the baby. Ash had mixed emotions going through him. He was happy that Misty was pregnant, yet he was sad because she had a condition that could kill the baby, yet he was surprised to find out that Misty had a unique immune system that could be passed on. Ash wasn't sure how to feel at a moment like this.

"Let me see if I understand you correctly, Misty." Ash began, putting together everything that he had been told. "You're pregnant, which I am very happy for." Ash said, showing a smile. "Your condition could kill the baby, yet the baby could get the very same immune system you have that could save it?"

"I know it sounds unbelievable Ash, but Dr. Haydon has all the medical files."

"Well, I'm happy."

Misty gave Ash a confused look.

"What I'm saying Misty, is that I'm happy your pregnant. I was surprised to find out that our baby might have a chance at surviving. Even though the chance is small, I'm happy to hear that."

"You really think I should at least try to have the baby?" Misty asked Ash.

"I really think you should, Misty. If you have the chance to have something great in life, you should really go for it."

Misty then gave Ash a passionate kiss on the lips. "Thank you, Ash." Misty said when they broke the kiss.

"Oh, I've got to tell Pik the great news, where is she?" Misty asked Ash.

"In her room with Pikachu, and they've locked the door." Ash told her.

"What? I thought they couldn't reach the doorknob."

"Apparently they had found some other way to lock it."

"I guess they want to be alone then." Misty then decided to change the subject. "So, what did my lovely husband get me for my birthday?"

"I just may have to return it, cause it seems that I already gave you one." Ash said teasingly.

Misty then laughed. "Very funny, Ash! Come on! What did you get me?"

"I'll give it to you later tonight." Ash said, trying to not ruin his surprise.

"Well, I just hope I can wait long enough."

"Oh, Lily called a bit ago. She said we have to meet her at her house to help her with something." Ash said, changing the subject.

"What? She has the nerve to ask me to do her a favor on my birthday?" Misty asked with a groan. "Typical!"

"Yeah, they also told us to bring over Pikachu and Pik for some odd reason. Maybe it has something to do with electricity."

"Figures!" Misty said with a sweatdrop.

Misty had known this sort of thing to happen before. Misty knew her sister, Lily, a long blue haired woman, to use her many beauty supplies that required electricity around her house. However, her house many times had an electric problem supporting all of them. Misty had to bring Pik over on several occasions to Lily's house because of that.

'Why can't she get her own electric pokemon?' Misty thought to herself as she went upstairs to get Pik.

At this point, Pikachu and Pik were lying down on a bunch of towels with Pik lying on top of Pikachu, who was gently petting her fur in a loving matter. They both knew it was nearly time, and they had gathered a bunch of towels secretly from the closet downstairs. The towels were arranged in a nest-like shape. They knew what was going to come soon. They really didn't want to be bothered until it came.

They soon heard a knock on the door. Which made Pikachu feel rather annoyed.

"Pikachu, Pik. Could you open the door?" Pikachu heard Misty say. Swearing in his tongue, he walked up to the door, and removed the chair that was blocking it. Pik had just closed the door to the closet that was hiding their little nest that they had made.

Pikachu opened the door, and was face to face with a glaring Misty. "What did you just say, Pikachu?" Misty said to Pikachu, which made him sweatdrop.

Apparently Misty had heard what Pikachu said, because the next thing he noticed, Pikachu was being dragged away by Misty into a nearby bathroom. Pik just couldn't help but giggle at her husband's fleeing attempt.

A few minutes later, Pikachu was dropped right in front of Ash. "Your Pikachu has a dirty mouth!" Misty said, with her arms folded, glaring madly at Pikachu, who was spitting out the taste of soap in his mouth.

Ash looked at Pikachu, and started getting mad at him. "What did he say?" Ash asked Misty.

"He had the nerve to call me the b-word."

"Is that true, Pikachu?"

("I'm sorry, Misty.") Pikachu said, confessing.

"We'll deal with this later, Misty. We've got to get going over to Lily's house." Ash said.

"We'll give you your punishment later, Pikachu." Misty said, as she left to help Ash get some things they would need to recharge Lily's house.

At this point, Pik was down at the bottom of the stairs, still laughing at her husband. ("That's what you get for having a dirty mouth, Pikachu!") She managed to say through her laughs.

("You know, you could've helped me out.") Pikachu said.

("Yea, but I was too busy laughing at your attempt to get away.") Pik said, finally calming down.

Pikachu then swore under his tongue again.

Apparently, Pik had heard him. ("Keep that up, and it's not gonna be good parenting for our baby.") Pik said, as she went to find Misty.

The next thing Pikachu heard was Misty say, "He said what?" Which made Pikachu sweatdrop, knowing what was coming his way.

After dealing with Pikachu's dirty mouth again, they all headed over to Lily's house. Just as suspected by Misty, all of the lights at Lily's house were out. They all walked up, and knocked on the door, but when no one answered, Misty got a little suspicious and turned the knob, opening the door. All of them walked in, and everything was quiet.

Next thing they noticed, the lights turned on, and everyone yelled, "Surprise!"

Suddenly, a banner appeared saying, "Happy Birthday Misty" on it. The place was filled with balloons and ribbons of many different colors. One of the balloons had Ariel from "The Little Mermaid" on it, which really was Misty in the beauty area.

"Happy Birthday, Misty!" Lily said as she put a party hat on Misty.

Misty then gave Ash a playful hit on the head. "You knew about this, didn't ya!" She said with a smile.

Ash rubbed his head and gave Misty a nod.

Everyone in Misty's side of the family was there. Daisy, Lily, Violet, a long, red haired girl, and their husbands, Gary, Richie, a brown haired boy about Ash's age, married to Violet, and Tracy, a black haired man, about Brock's age, married to Lily.

Violet had met Richie several years ago in the Houen League. She didn't meet him when he first arrived at Cerulean City, because she was sick that day. Misty's sisters were at the Houen League to help Misty cheer on her "boyfriend," which Misty did accept Ash as at the time. Ash and Richie ran into each other part way through the tournament, and caught up on lost time. Ash even told Richie about how he and Misty became boyfriend/girlfriend, which Richie was very impressed by, but he had always thought they were a good couple. Misty soon introduced Richie to her sisters. When Richie saw Violet, he started feeling kind of weird. He couldn't describe the feeling, but he knew it was something good. Soon a match between Richie and Ash had taken place, and Violet rooted for Richie instead of Ash, which everyone found a little strange. Richie did lose, but was happy for Ash. Misty, Daisy, and Lily talked to Violet later, and they wondered why she rooted for Richie instead of Ash. She couldn't explain herself. For some odd reason that she couldn't explain why she chose to root for Richie instead of Ash.

At that moment, Richie was talking to Ash and Brock. He told Ash that he really didn't try his hardest for some reason. He couldn't explain it, but for some reason, he couldn't stop thinking about Violet. He just couldn't concentrate on the match. Ash and Brock soon talked to Misty, Daisy, and Lily about how Richie and Violet both felt for eachother. They soon concluded that they were in love with each other, and decided to set up a date for the both of them. Before Richie and Violet knew it, they were going out with eachother more and more often. They really enjoyed eachother's company, and soon confessed their love for eachother. They have been married for seventeen months now, and Violet has a big surprise for everyone.

Tracey had been married to Lily for two years now. When he first went to the Cerulean Gym to help Misty, at the time she was away from Ash, when he was in the Houen League, he saw a picture that had Misty's three sisters on it. He became somewhat mesmerized by the photo. Misty spotted this and quickly snapped him back into reality. She knew that it was one of them who Tracey couldn't stop looking at, but she wasn't sure which one it was. However, she knew that she would find out once they got back home. The one Tracey said "hi" to first was Lily, which Misty took as a hint, since people usually say hi to Daisy first.

After Misty left her Togetic in the Mirage Kingdom, she spotted them secretly going out. She decided to keep it a secret, and just let everyone else figure out what was going on. Eventually, Tracey asked Lily to marry him, and she accepted. Tracey still had his job as Professor Oak's assistant, and had to head back to Pallet often from time to time. However, they were soon planning on moving there in a couple of months. They needed some more space for the new addition that was on the way.

The party started, and they had alot of fun. Everyone spotted Violet eating something she didn't like. A conversation soon broke out.

"Violet, you usually don't eat those, is everything alright?" Daisy asked her.

Violet decided to tell her secret. "Everyone, I have an announcement to make." She said, as everyone gave her a curious look. "I'm pregnant!" She said with a squeal.

"What? You serious?" Lily asked her, and Violet responded with a nod.

"Yep! I'm at two weeks now." She said with confidence.

"Way to go, my man!" Ash said to Richie, who just gave him a smirk.

"Well, looks like just about everyone has a new addition on the way." Lily said as she teased Misty.

Knowing Lily was teasing her, Misty decided to tell. "Well, I have an announcement to make too. I'm also pregnant." She said with a slight smile.

Everyone was surprised to hear that. Misty's sister, however, showed a look of concern.

"Misty, we're gonna have to have a little 'girl talk' after dinner." Daisy said to her.

They then resumed eating. Misty could only think of one thing it could be.

After dinner, all of the girls, including Pik, sat down with Misty on two living room couches. When they were all seated, Misty and Pik on one couch and Misty's sisters on the other, Misty just folded her arms, and gave them a smirk.

"So, how long have you known?" Misty asked, knowing what they were going to talk about.

"How did you-" Lily said before she was cut off by Misty bringing her hand up.

"Answer my question."

Daisy then spoke up. "When we were young, we overheard mom and dad talking to eachother. They were talking about your condition, and how they were going to tell you. It was at the time you were hit with the deadly virus, Misty."

At that point, Misty remembered that her parents weren't there to see her well again when she got over the virus. Tears were starting to well up in her eyes.

"They thought you were going to die, Misty. They wanted you to know before that happened." Daisy said to her. "They went over there with every intention of telling you. I'm just sorry that they never got to because of a car accident."

"I guess I have some apologizing to do." Misty said weeping. "I was very mad at them a few days ago for not telling me, and I thought they didn't love me. I guess them dying I took pretty hard," Misty let out another weep. "Because I started acting pretty mean after they died. I just wanted to run away from it when I set out on my journey and did a really good job of hiding my sadness." She let out a sniff. "When I met Ash, he showed a kinder, gentler side that I had forgotten about. In fact, if I wasn't so hurt back then, I might've accepted him as my boyfriend when we came for a visit."

"You know that I was only teasing ya, Misty, but I'm surprised you liked him that much back then." Daisy said, rather surprised.

Misty let out a laugh. "Yea, I was a bit surprised there too. I guess you can call it a 'love at first sight' thing." She said, which made everyone in the room laugh so hard, they had to hold their sides.

Violet finally caught her breath. "How long did it take you to realize that you loved him, Misty?" She asked.

Misty then calmed down. "To be honest, I'm not too sure. I just realized one day that I just couldn't stay mad at him like I can with other guys, and for some odd reason, I always seemed to care about him. I soon realized it was love. I always wanted to tell him every single day. Sadly, something always stopped me."

"Yet you did confess in the end." Lily said.

"Yea, but I would've appreciated a different scene than the one that really happened."

"Just be glad it happened, Misty. Who knows where you would be if it never did." Said Violet.

"So, you actually plan to have the baby?" Daisy said, changing the subject.

"Yea, and my chances may be greater than you think."

"How?" All three of Misty's sisters ask at the same time.

"You know that immune system I have? My baby could end up having it as well, and if that does happen, then my baby will survive. At least that's what Dr. Haydon said."

"Well, he's one we know we can trust." Daisy said to her. "Oh, and let me guess, Dr. Haydon told you about your condition, right?"

"Yea, he did."

"Well, I just hope the baby's healthy in the end."

"Me too."

As soon as their conversation was over, Pik started feeling a bit strange. She quickly got up and ran as fast as she could outside. All of the girls started following her. Pik soon ran past all of the guys, and they started following her, including Pikachu. Pikachu knew what was up, and ran as fast as he could to keep up with her. She ran right through a pet door that they had, and ran right into a nearby bush. Misty was about to check on Pik, when Pikachu got in front of her and jumped into the bush himself. They then heard screams coming from Pik. Soon, everything fell silent. Pikachu emerged from the bush and motioned everyone to come in.

Tracey carefully moved the bush and they then found Pik right there. The most amazing thing was that there was an egg right next to her. The egg was yellow with a brown thunderbolt on it. Everyone congratulated Pikachu and Pik on their new upcoming child, and went back inside to enjoy the rest of the party.

They were soon done with cake and the presents. Misty got many different gifts. However, Misty soon noticed that Ash hadn't given out his present yet. She then turned to Ash.

"Don't tell me that my own husband forgot my birthday." Misty said.

"Come with me, Mist." He said as he offered his hand to her.

Misty accepted, anxious to find out what her present was. Ash led Misty out to the backyard, and everyone else followed, knowing what Ash had planned.

They stopped in the middle, and Ash looked at Misty. "Misty, there's something I need to tell you." He said.

"What is it?" She asked, wondering what was so important.

"I've been called to a special meeting. I have to leave tomorrow." Ash said with sadness.

"But why?" Misty asked, wanting to know.

"A new and dangerous crime organization is causing problems in the Jotho region. I have been called to put a stop to it, Misty." Ash confessed. "I just found out today."

"What? Right when you found out I was pregnant?"

"Well at least I'm glad I found out before I left. I promise you that I'll be back as soon as I can, even though I know our anniversary is only a few months away."

Misty let out a sniff. "I don't want you to leave, Ash. What if you get hurt? I don't know what I'd do." Misty was welling up with tears.

"Just promise me that if the baby does make it, that you will take care of it."

"You know I would, Ash." She said, forcing a smile.

"Now, I thought we should do something memorable before I left."

Misty then heard music playing.

"Misty, this song is to you and how I feel about you." Ash said as he held out his hand. "May I have this dance?"

Misty gave a nod and started slow dancing with her husband.

Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

When Misty heard the lyrics to the song, she was surprised that Ash felt this way about her. She knew Ash not to be one to kid around when it came to things like this. She just smiled and continued dancing with her husband.

The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes

Ash looked at Misty, and loved the way her hair was tonight. She had decided to let her hair down today. In fact, ever since she married Ash, she promised to let her hair down more often, because of how much Ash loved her like that. He continued to enjoy the dance with his wife.

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

Misty let tears of joy fall from her eyes. She was happy to know that her husband felt this way about her. Ash saw a tear falling from her eyes and caught it, wiping it away from her. Misty smiled at him, enjoying his love very much. She would never forget this day.

Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Oh, every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you.

When the song ended, Misty then looked at her husband. "Is that how you really feel about me?" Misty asked with tears in her eyes.

"Yes. I've always felt that way about you Misty. I'm also amazed that you plan to have the baby, dispite your condition." Ash said truthfully.

"You know that I want it more than anything in the world, Ash."

"Also, through out this whole ordeal, no matter what happens from here, I promise to stick by your decisions, as long as I know they are good."

"Thank you Ash." Misty said. She then gave her loving husband a kiss on the lips.

Ash returned the kiss, and loved how it felt, like it had always felt to them, warm and inviting. They then broke apart, and went back inside the house to finish the party.

After the party was over, Ash and Misty went home with all of the new presents they had, making the trunk completely full. On the way home, Misty told Ash that they had to stop somewhere first. They soon stopped at the local cemetery where Misty's mom and dad were buried. Ash walked Misty to her mom and dad's graves, and Misty asked Ash to be alone with them. He then went back to the car and waited for Misty.

Misty then knelt down, looking at the graves. "Hi mom. Hi dad." Misty started to say. "It's been a while, I know, but I'm sure you can understand with the life I have to live."

Misty came here often when she had problems. In fact, a few days ago, after she had found out about her condition, she had come and started bad mouthing them. She really had to come and apologize.

"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry for saying that I hated you. I didn't know that you actually were going to tell me, but I can understand why you didn't. I apologize for calling you all of those bad things." She said in a sad tone. "But guess what? I'm pregnant now, and Dr. Haydon said that my baby might actually have a chance at surviving. The immune system that saved me could very well save my baby." There were sounds of joy in her words. "I also want you two to do something for me up in heaven. I want you to make sure that my baby makes it, and survives this ordeal. Also, watch over my husband while he's away on his mission and make sure he comes back safely. I've got to go now Mom and Dad. I'll see ya again soon." She said as she placed a single rose on each of their graves.

Misty then went back to the car, and both her and Ash went home. They were now busy thinking up Pikachu's punishment. They weren't too sure how to punish Pikachu for swearing. However, they soon figured out what to do. They then went to where Pikachu and Pik were. They were currently in the nest of towels, keeping their new egg warm.

"Pikachu, we have figured out what your punishment will be." Ash said.

Pikachu soon found out what it was, which really scared him.

("No Ash, you promised you wouldn't ever do that to me! I'm your best friend, right?") Pikachu said to Ash, begging him not to give him the punishment.

"Sorry, buddy." Ash said.

("No!")

The next thing Pikachu noticed, he was warped inside a pokeball. Pikachu hated being inside a pokeball the most, and Ash knew it was the perfect punishment for him. Pik then walked over to the pokeball.

She then let out a laugh. ("That's what you get for having a dirty mouth, Pikachu! I hope you learned your lesson.") She said, with a smile.

Apparently, Pikachu had learned his lesson, because from that day forth, Pikachu never said another swear word in his life again.

This was also the most memorable day ever for Misty, as she had gotten the best gift in the world. A chance to have her baby survive.
