Okay, I definitely don't think this has any part with Dreamscape. I don't think putting up a crossover is a good idea since this would rip the fanfic apart from its original plot setting.

And if you're wondering about the idea thing, I know...you probably don't think it's a good idea. So...uh...the story will go on...you don't have to give me any ideas if you don't want to. It's your own opinion and I respect that.

You can expect this to be a very long/segmented episode due to it being a tie-in to one of the Pokemon Movies. I also skipped "Machoke, Machoke Man" due to how long I was yearning to do this chapter. I know it took too long but this chapter is definitely worth the time I used brainstorming.

Okay, enough with this...let the VIRTUAL POKEMON INSANITY begin!!!

(...No pun intended...)

Part 5: Time Traveler Celebi! Part 1!

Chapter 1:
Race ya to the boat!

We were in a city. Or as I should put it; I and Ash were in a city. Misty and Brock were at a dock waiting for us and I was really worried. So far, Ash had won the Storm Badge. I was really glad my suggestion worked.

"Ash, can't we do this later?" I asked.

"C'mon! I never faced a Croconaw before!" Ash responded with a smile as Pikachu faced off with a crocodile Pokemon. Pikachu ended the battle with a head-but and used Thundershock. This accidentally zapped both Croconaw and its trainer. "Oops!" He ran over to the trainer and I noticed a bat Pokemon (Krobat) flying towards us.

"CRAP!" I shouted and ran towards the ferry. Eevee clung onto my shoulder trying not to fall off.

"SLOW DOWN! " Eevee yelled as I ran. I narrowly hit a wall but pushed off racing past a trolley that was driving towards me.

"WATCH IT!" The driver yelled.

"SORRY!"

The trolley turned out to be very long and I noticed that Ash and Pikachu were stuck in traffic. I turned and saw the ferry was about to move from its place before jumping on board in time.

"We made it! " Eevee gasped. I looked up and saw that Ash and Pikachu were trying to catch up.

"WAIT UP!!" Ash yelled. He and Pikachu raced towards another dock. Brock extended his arm towards Ash when the trainer jumped towards the boat. Their hands came really close but they missed. I extended mine in time to catch his. Unfortunately I wasn't that strong. The good news was that another hand reached out and got Ash by his vest before he could hit the side of the boat. The rest of us pulled him and Pikachu aboard.

"It's lucky I was there in time." The 20 year old smiled.

"Yeah, Ash wouldn't have made it." Misty smiled as Togepi trilled. "My name's Misty."

"I'm Ash!"

"My name's Brock!"

"I'm Mona...nice to meet you...um...what's your name?" I asked. It was very ironic that they never revealed this guy's name. I guess the whole conversation never made it to the dubbed version. (Might as well give him any name to make the story work)

"You guys can call me Jared." He smiled. "You guys are Pokemon Trainers right?"

"Yes, we are..." Ash nodded.

"There's a forest nearby with a lot of Pokemon dwelling in them." Jared explained and pointed in a direction. I looked at an opening between the trees in an awed manner. As I looked I spotted a bluish colored creature with a flowing mane. My eyes widened and I gasped.

"Suicune...!"

Ash looked in the direction I spotted Suicune. He gazed awestruck at it before Suicune ran off.

"That's a Suicune?" He asked.

"You saw it at the beginning of your journey to Johto right?" I asked.

"Yes. How did you...?" Ash stopped in mid-sentence since he may have remembered the TV show featuring him on Earth. "Oh yeah..."

I looked at my purple colored Poke-dex and paused. I had captured Suicune in the game. But that possibly didn't have anything to do with the television series.

Chapter 2:
Warning of the Forest

We had gotten to another small town. Jared was getting his boat ready so we could go to the forest. Ash had called Professor Oak to check to see how things were going. Eevee and Pikachu had gotten bored and started playing near us. Needless to say, Professor Oak was surprised to see me since I had been missing for a while. Anyway, on with the story...

"So Mona, I heard you beat all eight gym leaders in both Johto and Kanto." Professor Oak congratulated. I was somewhat giddy talking to a professor from the TV show but I kept firm.

"I did pretty well. But I was almost hammered by Morty. Luckily Fraligatr evolved." I shrugged.

"I hope your mother isn't worried. She would have put up search posters if it wasn't for Professor Elm calming her down."

"I'll visit her so she won't worry too much professor." I reassured him.

"Guys, let's go!" Jared shouted causing us to turn our attention towards him.

"We'll call you later Professor!" Ash smiled before they both hung up. We boarded a small boat and Jared positioned himself on the driver's seat.

As we rode along I overheard Ash's excitement of seeing the Pokemon in the forest. I was more exited about the legend of Celebi.

We stopped at a waterfall that blocked our way.

"Now what?" Misty asked.

"We're almost there Misty." Jared replied as the hot air balloons on either sides of his boat rouse over out heads. The next thing we knew, the boat took off into the air and over the waterfall.

"So, where is the town?" Ash asked.

"Just look over there." Jared pointed out as the boat went under the tree branches.

"Tree houses?" Brock exclaimed.

"That's right Brock. Welcome to Arborville!"

A few minutes we were walking towards the giant tree/rock where the tunnel to the forest was. Ash was really excited about seeing Pokemon causing him to run ahead.

"Stop right there!" I looked at a tree-house to see an old woman with faded green hair. I recognized her as Diana's grandmother. "I suppose you four are headed into the forest to look for Pokemon?"

"Yes, that's right..." I replied.

"Then you'll like what you see in there." Diana said as she walked from behind us.

"I like what I see here." Brock smiled in a lovesick manner. Not again!! "Please tell me your name!"

"I'm Diana, and this is my grandmother. She has been watching over the entrance to the forest when she was my age."

"If you hear the voice of the forest, stop and be still for you will not get away." Diana's grandmother continued.

"She must've been protecting the forest too much." Ash muttered. I noticed his comment before elbowing him in the side.

"C'mon...be easy on her." I reasoned.

"Okay..." He responded with a shrug. "But what's the Voice of the Forest?"

"It's an old legend in Arborville." Diana explained.

"Yes, and it's a true one." Her grandmother explained before leaving.

"Doesn't legend have it that the voice of the forest can catch someone and take them on a trip through time?" I asked knowing this all too well. At least my old friends could listen in.

"Yes, how did you know?"

"I learned some things about the legend." I explained in time to see Ash and Pikachu headed for the tunnel. "Uh...nice meeting you Diana!" I said before running after Ash. Eevee jumped from my shoulder and ran along side me.

"Diana, why don't you come along and protect us?" Brock asked.

"Then she'll need protection from you!" Misty responded before pulling him along by his ear as she usually does in the anime.

"Race you to the forest!" I challenged Ash as soon as I passed him.

"Hey! You got a head start!" He yelled. We raced towards the end of the tunnel before I coincidentally tripped on a root.

"Crap!" I yelped before falling over. I pushed myself up and looked around just as Ash got to the forest and stood there before smiling that he had gotten there first. I stood up and gasped in wonder and astonishment as I gazed at the forest. "Wow..."

Chapter 3:
Yukinari?!

Note: Yukinari is Sam's name in the original anime. But you probably already knew that...

We continued walking through the forest and looking at the surroundings. The forest was a lot bigger than I had expected. Well, I did watch it on TV but it was almost like looking at Steelix close up.

"I wonder what Diana's grandmother means by the Voice of the Forest." Brock started. "It might be the sound of the wind or the voices of the Pokemon."

"I don't know guys...it sounds like a legendary Pokemon to me." I mused in time to see a series of bright lights skim over us.

"What's that?!" Ash exclaimed.

"It might be the voice of the forest!" Misty whispered.

"I'm going to check it out." I responded before Eevee and I ran ahead towards where the shrine was.

"Wait up!" Ash yelled before he tried to catch up along with Misty and Pikachu (Togepi was in Misty's backpack).

"Wait, shouldn't we stand still?" Brock asked before running after us. I reached a clearing and saw the light dim before I saw a small greenish Pokemon and what looked like a young boy around twelve.

"Where am I?! I've got to escape!!" It whimpered.

Celebi flew around the unconscious form before flying out of view.

I tried to help Sam into a sitting position before the others came over.

"Is he okay?" Ash asked.

"He's still breathing, that's for sure..." I responded. "We should get him back to the village."

Ash insisted on carrying Sam/Yukinari on his back as we went to Diana's house.

"Diana! We need help!" Brock shouted as soon as the tree-house came into view. Diana and her grandmother looked from the balcony and I could've sworn I saw a grateful look on the woman's face as she saw Sam.

Sam started groaning as he stirred from unconciousness before Misty and Ash noticed.

"He's coming around." Misty said as Ash lowered the eleven-year-old onto the ground.

"Don't worry, you're okay." Ash said before Sam's eyes opened suddenly before he shoved Ash away.

"What did you do with Celebi?!" Sam cried out before the two grappled each other. Fortunately, Brock separated them before they could actually hurt each other.

"Okay you two, settle down!"

"Who are you anyway?!" Ash yelled in a peeved manner.

"Where am I? How...did I get here?" Sam asked as he looked around. Heck, I would be confused if I was flung forty years into the future.

"I carried you on my back! That's how!" Ash retorted before Diana and her grandmother came from the tree house. Diana's grandmother gasped before running up to Sam.

"I cannot believe it...it's you...you've come back!" She sobbed before embracing him. Sam continued having a confused/bewildered look. I didn't really blame him...

"Grandmother...who is this...?" Diana asked. I knew but I didn't want to startle her grandmother or my friends for that matter.

"Diana, you remember the story about the young boy who got lost in the forest when I was a young girl?" She replied.

"Yes, but...that can't be him!"

"Maybe so...but it is." Diana's grandmother responded. Sam finally understood what had happened.

"You're the girl who gave me that bread..." He said at last.

"First Mewthree...now a boy flung into the future..." Eevee muttered. I knew that a Pokemon's attitude determined on its trainer but I knew very well not to make wise comments.

We got into the tree-house to sort things out. I wanted to tell Sam I was in the same boat as he was but he might think that finding Celebi would send me through time. This was a bad idea since I was actually from another dimension. I decided the best way was to help Sam and then find another way back.

"I kept this safe in case you came back." Diana's grandmother said as she handed a wrapped notebook to Sam.

"This is my sketchbook." Sam said before looking back at the old woman. "But how..."

"You've been on a forty year long journey young man." She responded.

"Forty years?!" Ash exclaimed as Sam looked at his notebook.

What the others didn't know, except me, was that at the same time as Sam's pause a hunter had entered the forest looking for Celebi: The Iron Masked Marauder.

Sam looked up suddenly. "What happened to Celebi?!"

"Celebi?" Misty asked.

"Was there a Pokemon with me out in the forest?" Sam asked in a worried manner. I was about to tell him when Diana's grandmother spoke up. She was in a rush...

"The Pokemon you saw forty years ago was a Celebi?" She asked as Sam nodded. "We know Celebi as the voice of the forest."

"Was the Pokemon green in color?" I asked. Sam turned to me.

"Yeah, it was..."

"It flew away as soon as we found you." I nodded. "Celebi might still be in the forest."

"That's true...you may be able to find it around the Lake of Life." Diana's grandmother replied.

"I have to find Celebi." Sam said at last. I stood up.

"We'll help. My name's Mona, I'm a Pokemon trainer." I said with a welcoming smile before pointing up to the fox Pokemon on my hat. "This is my friend Eevee."

"Hi!" Eevee smiled.

"Nice to meet you." Sam smiled.

"My name's Misty, my specialty is water Pokemon." Misty said as Togepi trilled (again!).

"I'm Brock, and I am a Pokemon breeder."

"I'm Ash, and I'm also a Pokemon trainer." Ash said before Pikachu spoke up.

"Pika! Don't forget about me!"

"Oh yeah, this is Pikachu."

"Hi Pikachu, I'm Sam!"

So far so good...now we just had to find Celebi before the Iron Masked Marauder (or possibly Mewthree) could. At least I knew there was someone else in the same boat as I was.

To be continued...

Part 2 coming soon! R&R!
