May was so happy. She felt like every single one of her problems had vanished, and that she had no worries at all. There was a field of flowers and the wind softly wisped her hair in no particular direction. Then she saw it; an altar in the middle of all this beauty and someone standing below an arch made of crimson and white roses. Suddenly, she looked at herself, and saw that her usual outfit had now turned into a stunning white gown. There was a man standing at the altar, but she couldn't make out who it was. Music began to play, and she quickly recognized the song, 'Here Comes The Bride.' May felt extremely giddy, as she walked down the imaginary isle, and towards the groom. When the music stopped, and she finally made it there, her veil was lifted and in front of her stood, the most handsome, green haired man she had ever laid eyes on. He smiled at her, and her heart weakened.
"Do you take this woman, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?"
"I do."
"Do you take this man, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?"
"I do, I do, I do!"
"By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you both, husband and wife. You may now kiss."
May looked into his emerald eyes and felt pure bliss that this moment had finally happened. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and leaned in for the kiss.
"May… May… MAY!"
She snapped out of it at once, and a deep crimson color immediately appeared in her cheeks. She had her arms wrapped around Drew and he was trying to push her back. Letting go of him, she saw that his cheeks had also been somewhat of a flushed color.
"May? What got into you?" asked Drew with bulging eyes.
She couldn't even look at him.
"I'm sorry Drew. Really I am… I uh, you see, I was having a dream, and I must have been sleep walking or something…"
"Sleep walking? You were all over me!"
"I know that, and I'm sorry!" said May getting frustrated, more of at the fact that she had been dreaming about Drew in the first place, rather than because she had actually been hugging him.
Drew could tell that she had truly not meant for anything to happen, so he decided to let it go.
"Okay, I accept your apology. By the way… thanks."
He pulled out a rose from behind his back and gave it to her. Suddenly, she had a flashback of all the times her "mystery man" had given her a rose just like this one. She took it, and looked into his eyes. Her knees began to buckle and she started to sway a bit. Seeing this, Drew came to her rescue once again, and caught her before she fell.
"Thanks Drew…"
Their faces were inches away from each other and everything seemed to be far away. They closed their eyes, and began to lean forward. And just in the nick of time, another large wave emitted from the ocean and the two pulled away quickly. Kyogre landed near the cliff, and held its fin out so that Ash could walk safely onto the ground. Once May saw that it was Ash, she quickly sped towards him and away from Drew. Drew sighed and followed her. May ran up to him smiling, but Ash didn't even look at her.
"Ash! You're okay!"
"Leave me alone."
Ash walked right past her, and waved a hand motioning her to do as he said. Drew caught up to him, and blocked his path.
"Ash, where's Misty?"
He picked up his head, and glared at him.
"Misty? MISTY? Misty's not coming. She's going to stay in her new home; yeah, that's right Drew, Misty wants to stay in some kind of stupid underwater paradise, in which she rules all!"
And with that Ash shoved him out of his way, and he stormed off, Pikachu trailing behind him. May walked up to Drew and they both stared after him blankly.
"What's gotten into him?"
"I don't know May; why don't you go find out?"
Drew was going to walk away, but she caught him by the arm.
"Will you cut that out already? And what is it to you if I care about my friend?"
Drew blinked at her. She had called Ash her friend. Sparks of happiness filled his heart, but then he quickly put them out, telling himself that he needed to stay focused and not let emotion rule his mind.
"Hello in there? Are you going to answer me or what?"
"Uh, oh yeah. Sorry. So why do you think Ash is so miserable?" he asked sincerely.
That was better; at least now Drew was being friendly to her.
"I don't know… but wait, where's Misty?"
She looked back, and saw that the pokemon had disappeared, and wasn't at the edge anymore.
"Ash told me something about Misty staying in her 'home' or something like that. I can't even imagine what that means."
May bit her lip. That could only mean one thing; Misty had left Ash.
"Poor Ash. His heart must be broken."
"Why?" asked Drew dumbfounded.
"Because, if Ash said that Misty had stayed somewhere, and he was really mad about it, it must have meant that Misty chose to leave him, and that is why he came back by himself."
Drew nodded in agreement, and they both looked towards the forest to where Ash had gone.
..:-:..
Ash kicked a rock and it skidded a few feet in front of him. Then he punched the nearest tree, but quickly winced because of the pain in his fist.
"Oww! Damn it! Why did she have to stay there? Why… did she leave me…"
Tears began to stream down his face as he slumped down to the ground near the tree he had punched a minute ago. All of the built in anger flooded out through his eyes. He wiped the pain away vigorously and opened his eyes to see Pikachu resting patiently in his lap. Ash smiled, as Pikachu licked his face and then cuddled up on his shoulder. The pain in his heart was enormous, and it felt like the warmth that had once been there, was now gone, just like Misty. She was gone, and he wouldn't see her again. He had to deal with it, and move on with his life. The Hoenn League was starting today, and he needed to get there and win.
"Ash! Ash, come out here! Are you okay?"
May and Drew were headed towards him, so he stood up and made sure that they couldn't see the color in his cheeks.
"Ash! There you are! We looked everywhere for you!"
"Yeah, we thought you had run off or something," added Drew.
"Guys! I'm all right okay? Let's get out of here… Besides, I don't want to be late for the registration!"
He forced himself to smile and be cheery, but when he turned around and lead the way, he sunk to the bottom again, and his smile became a saddened frown. May and Drew just shrugged at each other, knowing that it was best not to talk about it. So they all headed out of the forest and onto the path that would lead them towards Ever Grande City.
..:-:..
"Tickets for two, please."
The lady at the counter woke up from her nap, and looked at May and Drew groggily.
"Wahh? Oh yeah, two tickets, okay…"
"Make that one."
"What? Drew! What do you mean one? Why aren't you staying?"
He had thought about this long enough, and he kept delaying the inevitable. May now had Ash to look after her so he decided it was time to go their separate ways.
"Yes, only one ticket, because I'm leaving. I've got to train you know, especially after so much time being away from my pokemon."
Drew flipped his hair and was going to turn away, when May stopped him.
"Wait! Drew, don't go!"
He turned around and cocked his eyebrow at her.
"Why?"
She squirmed in her position, not thinking she would have to answer him.
"Uh… well, it will get pretty boring with just Ash around. Sorry Ash."
She looked at him, but he stood there without emotion, and just shrugged.
"Whatever…"
"So will you stay?" asked May shyly.
Drew didn't know what to do. He could either go right now, and not be bothered with what his heart felt; or he could stay, and be with the girl of his dreams. Whoa, what was he saying? The girl of his dreams? Psh, yeah right. May, the girl he always wanted to be with? … yes… she was the one, but he didn't want to feel any heartache. He looked at Ash, and knew that emotional attachment only brought misery.
"It's okay if you don't want to… I understand," said May disappointed.
"Fine, I'll stay, but only for a while; I want to see Ash win. Miss, make that two tickets please."
Inside May felt her heart leap with joy, but why did she want Drew to stay so much? He was her rival, and he was often times very rude towards her.
"Uh, lady, can you register me for the league?" asked Ash with a snotty tone.
The woman behind the counter looked at him loathingly but accepted his ID and registered him into the tournament. She also gave him a tournament guide, explaining all of the rules, and when each round of the tournament would be held.
"So what should we do now?" asked May, while sighing.
"I don't know, just hang around or something?" replied Drew.
"I'm just going to go to the Pokemon Center," said Ash curtly, and he left.
"Wow, he really is in a bad mood; do you think we should do something about it? Hey!"
She turned around on her heel as Drew walked right past her. Finally she caught up to him, and then glared into his face.
"What was that all about?"
Drew flipped his hair and smirked at her.
"Just because I said I'm staying doesn't mean that I'm going to be spending my time with you. Why would you think that highly of me?"
May blinked at him, as he walked away. She sighed sadly and decided to wander around in the street carnival that was taking place here as well. It must have been some kind of island holiday or something of that sort. When Drew walked far enough, he hid behind a candy stand, and peered to see what May was going to do. He had really wanted to stay with her, but he didn't want to. His emotions were so confusing; he couldn't stand it. Drew looked around and saw that there really wasn't anything that fun to do all by himself.
May saw a booth with some stuffed animals as prizes and immediately thought of the moment when Ash had won one for Misty. So much had happened since then…
"Young lady? Would you like to play?"
She snapped out of it, and responded with a meek smile.
"Uh, sure why not?"
"The rule of the game is to toss as many rings as possible onto the three bottles. Got it?"
"Yeah, pretty much."
The man, who was wearing a very large cowboy hat, so that it covered his entire head, leaned a bit closer so that he could hand over the rings to her. When she took them from him, she felt a tiny spark of connection and she looked at her hand, which was in his. She pulled it away quickly and tried to cover the blush in her cheeks. May tossed the rings, and all of them got onto the bottles without any problems.
"Wow! I didn't know I was so good!"
"Yes, you are." 'At least your good at something,' the man muttered.
May perked up her ears and became suspicious at once.
"What was that?"
"Oh, uh nothing. Here you go, your prize."
From behind his back, he pulled out a long stem rose and handed it to her carefully, so that their hands wouldn't touch again.
"Oh, wow. This rose is so beautiful! I really don't deserve this…"
Suddenly everything clicked, and inside she smiled, but on the outside she put on a flirty act. She leaned in closer to the man, as he leaned away from her.
"Uh, ma'am, what are you doing?" asked the man nervously.
"Oh, why can't I show my appreciation, for such a wonderful gift?"
She tried to lean in to either give him a hug or a kiss on the cheek, but he pushed her away.
"Uh, um, ma'am, I'm really sorry, but I'm not…."
"Oh, but I must thank you in some way! Here, let me take off that annoying hat for you."
"NO! I mean, no, don't do that, I uh, get this allergic reaction if my face has contact with sunlight… so yes, please just go and have a nice day!"
The man was retrieving to behind the booth, but May smiled slyly, and then called out after him.
"All right, but I'll give you my thanks later! Don't worry, I'll find you… no matter what!"
At that point, he made a run for it, and May let out a mischievous laugh. Drew could be so funny at times.
..:-:..
Misty sat near the creek, with her feet dangling in the water below her. Various water pokemon were swarming around her, trying to give her some kind of comfort. The winds were beginning to pick up, and clouds began to gather. Kyogre swam to Misty's side, and she looked up gloomily.
"Misty what's wrong?"
"Huh? Oh nothing…"
Suddenly, tears began to shed on Misty's face, but not from her eyes; they were raindrops that had started to fall onto the paradise. Lightening streaked the sky, and seconds later there was a loud crack of thunder and all of the water pokemon fled. Misty pulled her legs close into her body and started to cradle herself. The water began to run faster, and large waves were washing up onto the ground where Misty was sitting.
Kyogre began to worry. Everything in his home would eventually begin to disappear if Misty's emotions became too strong. He dove under the water, and began to work.
..:-:..
"Come on Ash! You can do it!"
May yelled from the stands, sitting next to Drew. The competition had come down to the last two finalists; Ash and a girl named Paula. It was surprising how much Ash had changed, both emotionally, but in the way he battled. He seemed without emotion, making him able to concentrate more on the battle, and what was happening around him. He had beaten all of his opponents quite easily, and all he had to say about his wins was that his opponents had all been amateurs; it hadn't been any kind of challenge at all. Ash became ruthless, stopping at nothing to beat the numerous amounts of pokemon he faced. Now he and his opponent had come to a draw, and each had only one pokemon left. But Ash wasn't worried in the slightest bit.
"Come out Torkoal."
"Torrr!" The pokemon came out and displayed her affection for her trainer.
"Torkoal, stop being so happy, and instead focus on winning!"
The harsh words got to the pokemon, and she immediately obeyed. They both stood there waiting for Paula to call out her pokemon. Her long black hair was tied in a ponytail and she wore a yellow tank top under blue jean overalls.
She smirked as she saw the pokemon her opponent had chosen. Ash thought nothing of it, and he waited tapping his foot impatiently while she got ready to battle.
"Let's go… Starmie."
Ash stood there awestruck as the star shaped pokemon emerged from its poke ball. Everything in him went numb and everything in him stopped. Immediately, memories of him battling with Misty flashed in his head, and the pain in his heart emerged, greater than before.
"Look at him; he's just standing there like an idiot," said Drew knowingly.
"Drew! That's not nice! So what if he's all of a sudden got stage fright or something? You're supposed to cheer him on, not say negative things like idiot! How's he supposed win with you babbling like that?"
Drew chuckled and flipped his hair. He decided to let her cool down and not respond. Instead he put his attention back to the match at hand.
Ash shook his head, and tried to hold back the tears. He had blocked his feelings of sadness from interfering with his battles, and it had worked, up until now that is.
"Torr!"
Ash snapped back into focus, and tried his best to keep Misty out of his mind, and his heart.
"What's the matter Ash? Afraid I'm going to beat you?"
Those words resounded in his head, but with Misty's voice instead of Paula's.
"No. No I'm not! Torkoal, use flamethrower on Starmie!"
"Are you joking me? Starmie! Dodge the attack!"
Ash knew this was coming. He saw Torkoal's flamethrower propel out of its mouth, and then immediately figured out what to do.
"Now, Torkoal! Aim the attack above Starmie!"
Starmie tried to dodge the attack by jumping up, but it fell into the trap and got hit directly by the flamethrower. When it reached the ground, Starmie was ruffled only a bit by the attack but it was burned a bit too. Ash didn't know what to do. Starmie was a water pokemon, and water pokemon were strong against fire. He was at a disadvantage and he knew that he couldn't win. Everything in him fell apart and he gave up.
"Torkoal, all you can do right now is brace yourself, got it?"
"Torr!"
"Starmie, use Water Gun on Torkoal!"
The fire pokemon hid in its shell just in time. The water hit the shell, but when Torkoal reappeared, anyone could tell that it had taken immense damage. Ash grinded his teeth in anger. He had come so close, so close to becoming the champion, the Master of all Pokemon, and now he was going to lose simply because of a type disadvantage.
"Starmie! Another Water Gun, now!"
Torkoal ducked inside its shell again, but the results of the watery blast were even greater than before. Ash saw the pain on his pokemon's face, and knew that going on would be of no use. So he decided to forfeit.
"Judge! I'd like to…"
All of a sudden as Ash was saying that, there a large flash of light from behind the stadium, and it lit up the sky for a second. It was so mysterious, that everyone turned their attention towards it, forgetting about the battle that was taking place. After a few seconds of nothing happening, Ash and Paula looked back at their pokemon. But then, another interference was made, as the two trainers both looked up to see Gyrados soaring over the stadium walls. It sprayed water from its mouth right at the middle of the field so that the landing would not be so rough. A girl jumped off of its back, and then recalled the giant pokemon into its poke ball.
"Why do you look so startled Ash?"
Misty smiled at him, and instantly, Ash regained every bit of happiness he had ever known.
"Misty! How'd you… Are you… You're back!"
Misty chuckled at him and winked.
"I'll tell you all about that later. Right now, you have a battle to win!"
"But Misty, I don't know if I can…"
His head swung low, but Misty picked it up and put her hand on his shoulder.
"Ash, you can do anything you put your mind to doing. I know you can win, I just know you can."
Ash's pride leapt so high, and his energy was so much better, that even Torkoal showed signs of improvement in his health.
"Uh, miss? Could you please get off of the field?" asked the judge politely.
"Oh yes! I'm so sorry! Good luck Ash!"
She walked off of the filed and sat next to the table of match judges that were watching them battle. From up in the stands, May and Drew were awestruck.
"What's Misty doing back?" asked May completely shocked.
"Well, I guess you could say she just couldn't stand to be without Ash, could she?"
He looked at May, smiling, and at those words, and she began to blush a bit. She turned away and put her focus on the match.
"Well folks, after a spectacular show from a girl and her Gyrados, it looks like the final battle will finally now resume!"
There were cheers from the crowd, and with renewed spirits, and a renewed heart, Ash put everything he had into the battle, the battle that would fulfill his every dream.
"Okay Torkoal! We can win this! You just have to put all of your energy into it!"
"I wouldn't count on winning Ash," said Paula smirking.
"Oh, you just wait! Torkoal, use flamethrower again!"
"Yes, now I know that we can win! Starmie, use water gun again, and aim it low so that it gets inside of Torkoal's shell!"
Ash's eyes widened, but he quickly regained his cool.
"Torkoal, jump up right before the water gun reaches you, and then turn over!"
"What?"
Paula's expression became worried and confused. Starmie had used water gun, but just like Ash said, Torkoal rolled over onto its back, and the power from the jet stream of water sent Torkoal spinning in its place.
"Now, Torkoal, use Overheat!"
Starmie was still trying furiously to get the water into Torkoal's shell, but it wasn't working. Meanwhile, Torkoal was charging up energy in its shell, and finally when it had enough, she let out a fiery blast, and since Torkoal was spinning in circles, the attack spun in circles too, hitting Starmie multiple times.
Paula couldn't believe it. She had been so stupid to assume nothing could beat her Starmie. This was it though. Ash's strategy would work for her as well. Starmie kept getting hit, and by now it had stopped its water gun attack. Torkoal was now on its back, and it couldn't get back on her feet.
"Now Starmie! Get on top of Torkoal and use Waterfall!"
"Starr!"
Ash's eyes looked on in horror as a rising waterfall sprung up and then its waters fell down straight onto Starmie and Torkoal. When the waters subdued, Starmie jumped off of its opponent refreshed, but Torkoal was on the ground with circles in its eyes.
"Torkoal is unable to battle. Paula and Starmie win the match and the championship!"
The crowd jeered with applause, but May and Drew both looked at Ash with sympathy. Ash ran up to Torkoal and helped her stand up.
"You did a great job Torkoal. It's okay; we still got second place. Here, take a long nice rest."
He took out its poke ball, and a red light emerged from it, recalling Torkoal. Ash stood up and looked at Misty. She smiled and ran up to him.
"Ash! That was great! You and Torkoal did an amazing job! I know that if you were battling me, I would have definitely lost."
"Oh come on Misty, you know that you would have won," said Ash teasingly.
"Well, yeah, I guess your right. But you still managed to put on a great battle! I'm so proud of you!"
"I wouldn't have been able to do it without you, you know."
Misty smiled and she hugged him.
"I missed you Ash."
"I missed you too Misty."
..:-:..
The fireworks flashed up in the sky, as the ceremonies of the Hoenn League came to a close. Ash had accepted his second place medal, and then he headed towards his friends with Pikachu riding on his shoulder.
"Congratulations Ash! You did an awesome job!" squealed May.
"Yeah, good show," added Drew while flipping his hair.
"Thanks you guys… hey, where's Misty? I thought I saw her a second ago."
Drew and May both smiled at each other, but then put on serious faces, while May explained.
"Oh, Misty, yeah, she had to go back to the paradise, something like that."
"WHAT?"
"Yeah Ash, sorry to bust your bubble, but she said that she needed to stay there."
Ash was dumbfounded. He was speechless. He had lost Misty, again?
Suddenly, there was a flash of light before them, and an archway made of light appeared. After the light went away, there stood Misty smiling. Ash's heart skipped a beat, and then he started to yell.
"May! Drew! What in the world did you say that for? That Misty left again! That wasn't funny!"
Misty heard this and added in.
"You told him what? Guys! You know I was just leaving for a minute or so!"
May and Drew laughed, but then quickly stifled their laughs as Misty's and Ash's faces became very strict. But finally the tension eased, and Ash began to question Misty.
"So, you said you had to leave for a minute? Where'd you go?"
"Well, they weren't lying when they said that I went back to the paradise."
"But how could you get there, and back so quickly? Would you mind telling me what's going on? I don't like to be left out of the dark, if you know what I mean."
Misty chuckled and nodded her head.
"Yes, I'll explain everything. See, I didn't really want to stay there in the paradise, but I felt obliged to, that it was my duty. But my emotions became so powerful, that Kyogre said I could eventually ruin the paradise by creating a hurricane or something even worse."
Ash's jaw dropped, but he continued to listen. May and Drew however weren't shocked at all, mostly because they had already been told all of this by Misty a couple of minutes ago.
"Well, Kyogre knew that it wouldn't be good if I stayed, but it would also be bad if I left… so, Kyogre arranged a somewhat Psychic connection between me and the paradise. It took a lot of his energy away, so I have to visit him every so often to make sure he gets stronger. And now I'm back here!"
Ash tried to figure out exactly what she meant, and since May saw the puzzlement on his face, she explained further.
"Ash, what Misty is trying to say, is that now, she can go back and forth between the paradise, by just thinking about going there. It's like she said, a psychic connection."
"OH!" Ash finally felt relieved. "So this means that you don't have to stay there?"
"Yes, I only have to go there once in a while so that the paradise doesn't turn into a garbage dump again."
Ash's heart leapt with joy, and so he leaned in towards her and they started to kiss. May and Drew left them alone, and started to walk towards the entrance of the stadium to where they could see the whole island, the ocean surrounding it, and the setting sun.
"What a day huh?" asked May quietly, while sighing.
"Yeah…"
May looked down at her shoes, and then turned towards her rival. The sun made him look so much older and wiser, something she had to do a lot of maturing to become.
"Drew?"
"What do you want?"
He turned to face her, and even though he might have sounded rude, he meant it sincerely.
"Um… I know that you like traveling alone and everything, and that we are rivals… but would you mind traveling with us for just a little while? It's going to be a bit boring with Ash and Misty having their paws on each other the whole time…"
Drew laughed, but then he saw that she was serious. The way he responded, however, hurt May deeply, and so she turned away.
"Maybe."
The short one word answer lifted May up, and she smiled with happiness.
"Really? You'll come?"
"All I said was maybe, so don't freak out about it."
May calmed down but smiled to herself. Unknown to her, Drew was doing the same thing.
"Hey guys!"
They turned around to see Ash and Misty walking towards them.
"What are you standing around for? We've got to get moving! Now!"
Misty sighed at Ash's remark, and cleared the confusion for May and Drew.
"What he means is, that we need to get to the bottom of the island and get on the ferry leaving for Viridian City."
"What we are leaving already?" asked May sadly.
"YES! Now lets get a move on!"
"Wait a second, isn't Viridian City in the Kanto region? Aren't there contests in the Kanto region?"
"Why actually Drew, I think there are. I know of one for sure is in Saffron City," replied Misty cheerfully.
Drew started to think it over, and then decided what to do.
"Alright then, I'm with Ash. Let's go!"
Ash and Drew started to walk down the steps outside of the stadium, leading them towards the bottom of Ever Grande City.
"But it's almost going to be dark! Guys!" May called out after them.
"Don't waste your time May. You won't win."
May sighed, but smiled as she turned towards her friend.
"It's nice to have you back Misty."
"Yeah, I'm happy that I'm back too."
The two girls smiled at each other, and they started to walk down the steps to catch up with Ash and Drew.
As the sun shone its last rays of sunlight, and the flame in the torch of the stadium was blown out, the Hoenn League, and all of the adventures leading up to it, finally came to a close.
..:-:..
