Chapter 9- Earthquake!
Ash was jumping all over poor Skarmory and Skarmory kept moving unsteadily.
"Hey chill Ash. If you keep making Skarmory nervous then it'll take forever to get to Misty," Brock said.
"I know! But we've gotta get there!" Ash tried to sit still but he was so stressed out that Pikachu finally had to paralyse him to keep him still.
Drew skirted around the rocky terrain looking for wild pokemon that he could use in his next contest. Then he heard the sound of a Skarmory's cry.
Hey! It's Ash and his friends!
Skarmory made a smooth landing and Ash jumped off, running up to Drew.
"Okay so I came now where's Misty? Give her back NOW! Oh and I remember, you want a pokemon battle so I'll kick your butt, Pikachu come here and shock Drew now and Drew you go and die!" Ash yelled.
Drew looked shocked. "What do you want, Ash? Have you been doing drugs or something?"
May cried from Skarmory's back. "Stop acting, Drew!" she cried out. "It's not fair to me, you know! How could you just betray me like that?"
Max and Brock stepped up next to Ash bravely.
"Well? Give Misty back already!" Max shouted.
"Drew, you're such a selfish bastard! And you've proved it so just give her back! And you've already hurt May what do you want now?" Brock swore.
May couldn't help wonder why Drew had such a shocked expression on his face. He was a liar, a deceiver, a traitor, why was she still falling for him?
"ASHHHH!"
The familiar voice made Ash gasp out loud. He looked up. And up and up.
On the top of a very stiff rocky cliff, Misty cried for Ash. Her ankle was still chained and the chains hurt her swollen ankle so much that blood dripped around it.
Ash looked back over at Drew and gave him such a contemptuous look that even May was scared. "Alright, Drew, so you've tortured me enough now just give Misty back!" he yelled.
Drew had just realised Misty was sitting on the edge of the cliff with her ankle chained.
"Hey, I didn't kidnap her!" he cried.
"So… you did come… Ash Ketchum…"
Another voice, sounding exactly like Drew's came from Misty's direction. May buried her face in her hands and let tears fall silently.
Another green-haired dude stood next to Misty, the chain clasped in his gloved hands. He pulled back the familiar black hood and stared at them.
Ash and friends drew back in shock.
"There… there are two Drews…" Max murmured in shock.
May, relieved by this news, flew into Drew's arms. (No, not the evil one!)
May was crying into Drew's chest and Drew shouted, "What do you want?" to the other Drew.
The other Drew snarled at the first Drew. "None of your business, Drew. I just came here to finish something I started ages ago."
Ash gaped at the two of them. "Hey, you know him?"
Drew shot the other guy a glare. "That loser up there is my brother… his name is Ned."
"Pikachu!" I want Misty! Pikachu bounded up the rocky terrain, trying to reach the red-haired girl at the top.
"Wait Misty, I'm coming!" Ash foolishly ran after Pikachu and tried to grope at the rock with his gloved hands, but der, he couldn't. He slid back down and looked at his bloody hands. "MISTYY!" He yelled to the sky.
Ash ran to the Skarmory and hopped on its back. "Skarmory! Fly up that cliff!"
Ned was watching all of this with great interest. When Skarmory landed on the top, he carelessly swung the chain around, dragging Misty along the rocky ground with it.
"OWW!" she cried.
"STOP IT!" Ash yelled. He ran up towards them just as Ned hurled the end of the chain off the end of the cliff. He hurled it with such great force that Misty felt herself plummeting down.
"MISTY!" Ash was about to stupidly jump down after her but Skarmory flew there as fast as possible to catch her… and just made it.
"Girafarig! Psychic!" Ned sent out the pokemon and Girafarig used Psychic and moved Misty back to the cliff. Girafarig bought her back two metres above the ground level and let go. Misty felt her back bleed as she hit the ground.
"MISTY!" Ash ran up to her but Girafarig used its physic attack to stop him. It lifted him up high and threw him back so that he hit a rock wall and slid down.
Ash groaned. His body felt numb.
"Snorunt!" he managed to send out his newest pokemon.
"Snorunt, Snorunt!" Snorunt did a little dance of joy.
Ned snickered. "Oh yeah, delightful… Girafarig, Psybeam!"
"Snorunt! Icy wind!" Ash commanded.
Girafarig was about to attack Snorunt but Snorunt quickly used Icy wind and Girafarig was soon frozen in a big block of ice. Girafarig was unable to battle so Ned sent out Hariyama.
"Seismic Toss, Hariyama!"
"Hari…ya…ma…" Hariyama picked Snorunt up and hurled it back against the rock. It slid down and landed upside down next to Ash.
"Snorunt, are you okay?" Ash asked.
Snorunt toppled over back onto its feet. "Snorunt!" it said determined.
"Blizzard!" Ash cried.
Snorunt used its biggest Blizzard ever and May clung to Drew tighter as the heavy snow fell all around them. It was freezing.
Unfortunately, the blizzard was so thick that Snorunt didn't see Hariyama coming at it with its tackle.
"SNORUNT!" Snorunt fainted.
Ash clenched his hands into fists. "Go Pikachu! Show it what you're made of!"
"Pika pi pika chuu!" I'm on it! Grrrr…
"Pikachu! Thunder!" Pikachu unleashed the strongest Thunder ever. The attack came down from the heavens and struck Hariyama out. The attack also made the rocky ground they were on unstable, and Max could see bits of rock already chipping off the sides.
"Careful, guys!" he warned.
"Whiscash! Come on out!" Ned yelled.
That's a water type pokemon, isn't it? Well then Pikachu will have it dead in no time! "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Ash shouted.
Ned nodded smugly. Oh yeah, let him be a fool and tire his pokemon out.
Pikachu used a thunderbolt on Whiscash.
Nothing happened.
"What the?"
"Pika-pi, pi?" Why didn't it work?
Misty yelled from her slumped over position on the ground behind Ned, "Whiscash is part ground, Ash!"
From the sidelines, Brock added, "Electric attacks won't have any effect."
Ned smiled a sly smile. "Well, kitty, its time to say goodbye. Now, Hariyama! Earthquake!"
Misty shrieked as the earth beneath her started to rumble.
"It's gonna collapse!" Drew yelled. He motioned for Brock and Max to get out of the way and carried May out.
The rock beneath them was already really weak from the Thunder, another attack and it could not stand it. The ground was shaking hard and cracks started to appear everywhere.
Ned laughed and stepped majestically onto his Salamence, which hovered above in the air.
"Ash!"
Ash got up as best as he could and ran to Misty, holding her tight. "It'll be okay." he whispered but the ground was shaking so hard it was getting hard to hold on.
Misty started to panic as the ground cracked beneath their feet and without warning the ground split a crack right between them separating them.
Ned stood on his Salamence and watched the ground beneath collapse.
