Author´s note: I´m back! It took me quite some time to write this, but I wasn´t on the Pokemon-trip anymore and hadn´t any idea to continue, but now the story will continue. I don´t want to disappoint all the Ash/Bianca-fans, because I know how hard it is to find a Fanfic about them. So, here is the next chapter!
Fever and strange things
Ash and Bianca were walking down the road and talking about Pokemon when their Pokemon suddenly started to get nervous. They stopped. "What is it Pikachu?",Ash asked. "Pi..Pika.",he got as an answer. "What is it?",Bianca asked. "Pikachu says we should look for a place to stay since a terrible storm is comming.",Ash said. Bianca looked up at the deep blue sky with no clouds and said: "It doesn´t look like if the weather will change." "I think we should listen to Pikachu. Pokemon have far better instincts than we have." Bianca looked at Ash and Pikachu and nodded. "Okay. It´s better to be careful." So they started their way again, looking for a place they could stay in during the storm. After an hour Bianca looked up at the sky again and said: "Maybe Pikachu was really right." Ash looked up too and saw that the sky was now full of big, dark clouds. "We should hurry to find a safe place before it starts to rain.",Ash said. Just a second later the first raindrops started to fall and short after Ash and Bianca felt like if they were standing under a waterfall. They started to run, but a strong wind slowed them down. Suddenly Latias found a little cave in a stone, just big enough for the little group. When they reached it they sat down and tried to regain their breath. "What are we going to do now?",Bianca asked. "Wait till the storm is over and then hurry to reach Oldale.",Ash answered. They sat for a while in silence just looking at the rain outside. Their Pokemon laid down and soon fell asleep. An hour went by and then two and then three and the storm got only worse. "Hey Bianca, what will you do when...",Ash started to ask, but when he looked at Bianca he lost his words. She was leaning against the wall, eyes closed, shaking violently and her face was a bit red. "Bianca! What is it?",Ash asked worried. Bianca opened one eye and smiled weakly. "Nothing. It´s just a bit cold.",she answered. Ash went to her side and touched her forehead. "You have a fever!" "No. I´m fine. Really." Her voice was just a whisper. Ash took a blanket from his bag and put it over her, but she still was shaking. So he took her in his arm to warm her up. "Hold on Bianca. The storm will be over soon. And then we´ll get you to a doctor and everything will be fine.",he told her in a gentle voice. "At least I hope so.",he thought. He didn´t notice that he had waken up the Pokemon and was surprised when he found them sitting next to him, looking worried at Bianca. "She has just a fever. After some sleep she´ll feel better.",he told Pichu who was almost crying. After some time the Pokemon fell asleep again, but Ash didn´t close one eye. He wanted to be sure that Bianca is fine. He was looking out at the rain, thinking how they could reach Oldale as soon as possible to get a doctor for Bianca, but no solution came to his mind. Suddenly he heard Bianca whisper: "Only one soul is made of light. Only one heart can make it right. Only one can hear them call. Only one can taim them all." "Bianca..." He looked down at her and when he noticed that she was still sleeping he looked out again. "Only one soul is made of light? Only one can taim them all? What was she talking about?...It sounds like and ancient legend." Suddenly he remembered the two Pokemon attacking her. "Could it be...that there is a connection?",he asked himself, but couldn´t find an answer. After one mor hour Bianca woke up, just to find herself in Ash´s arms who had fallen asleep just minutes ago. She looked outside and saw that it was still raining and it didn´t look like it would finish soon. Suddenly something came to her mind. "Water, Wind, Ice, Fire, Nature, Light, Darkness, Earth and Thunder. May they all live together in harmony till the time of the world is over. Let the light of my soul shine over them and let my heart protect and guide them till the day my destiny will reach me." Ash woke up when he heard Bianca´s voice. He looked at her and called out her name, but she didn´t hear him. Her eyes seemed to be empty and her voice was just a whisper. Only after Ash started to shake her she became normal again. "What is it?...I´m feeling kind of dizzy." "You have a fever and you say strange things as: One can taim them all, or: Let my heart protect and guide them till my destiny will reach them." "I said something like that?" Ash just nodded. "But I never heard a thing like that." "What?" "I swear. I´ve never ever heard these things before." "But how do you know them then?",Ash asked, more himself than Bianca. Suddenly Bianca leaned her head on his shoulder. "My heard turns." Ash put his arm around her and pulled her closer to him. "It´s okay. You just need some sleep.",he told her in a gentle voice. "I don´t know what´s happening, but somehow I remember things I never knew before and never could have known. Like these sentences for example. I don´t know why, but I´m frightened." "You don´t have to be, since I am here to protect you. And don´t forget about Latias, Pichu and Pikachu." Bianca smiled and closed her eyes. "I know." With that she drifted into sleep again.
Author´s note: I know, it´s very very very short, but to my mind it´s also very sweet and some kind of mysterious. The most difficult thing in this chaper was thinking of a cool ancient text and I hope you like it. I wanted to show Bianca´s role as the guardian, but without revealing all secrets. I hope you review!
