Ehh that last chapter was typed up weeks ago but when I tried to post the site was down so I didn't post…

Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon.

Ash ran down the stairs of the ship as he stared into the town. He stretched as Pikachu yelled out its own name and Brock hopped off the boat. Misty followed them into the city. "You know ,Ash, we should ask someone for some info on this place." Brock said as he was pushed by a lady in a pink suit.

"Hey watch it!" Misty shouted, "Man people here sure are rude!" She looked up at all the small buildings. "What's this place called again?"

"Palm Port City," Ash answered as he looked around excited.

"Think May might be here?"

"Maybe," Brock said as he looked around him. "It should be called Palm Port Town it's really small."

"Nah, it just looks that way because of the one story buildings." Misty glanced at Ash then looked away embarrassed when he caught her.

"Look here," Brock pointed to a poster with a Swellow and various other pokemon on it. "A Pokemon Contest poster." Ash grinned widely.

"That means…May might be here!" Ash thrusted his arm into the air.

"Pika Pika!" Pikachu shouted.

"Right, she sure has gotten good. You remember…"Ash gazed absentmindedly at the sky; he watched the clouds go by. Brock, Pikachu and Ash stared out into the ocean.

"I don't" Misty interrupted.

"Huh?" the three males said.

"I don't remember, I didn't go with you guys." Misty grumbled. "So how about explaining?"

"Right," Brock said. "Uh well…Ash?"

"Ok, uh well, its just May started out knowing very little about Pokemon." Ash chuckled. "One time we met a trainer who use to dress up like pokemon, he dressed up like a Zigzagoon and we chased him thinking he was some sort of giant Pokemon."

"So," Brock continued, "we finally caught him with a bunch of other Zigzagoon. He took off his costume and...and…" Pikachu jumped of Ash's shoulder. He pulled his ears around his face and made his eyes big and sweet. Sucking in his breath he slendered his body and clasped his hands together.

"Pi Pi Pika Pika Pikachu Pi!!" Ash and Brock laughed.

"Umm…" Misty sweatdropped.

"I didn't know Zigzagoon…evolved into humans!" They shouted together.

"No way she said that!" Misty jumped surprised.

"She did," Brock smiled.

"Not much of a trainer then?"

"She wasn't in the beginning but she did become one. She's a great coordinator," Ash looked at the poster and smiled, "you should see her now."

"You know I would love to see her in a contest I bet they're so cute!" Misty said with stars in her eyes, she put her arm on Ash's shoulder and leaned on him.

"Yeah it would be great to see her again," Brock commented.

"Pi?"

"Uh what is it Pikachu?" Ash asked.

"Pika!" Pikachu ran off down the street with Ash and company in pursuit.

"Hey Pikachu!" Misty yelled.

"Come back here!" Ash demanded.

"What a cute Pikachu!" May squatted next to Pikachu and rubbed behind its ear. "I could almost swear…but no, there's no way." She signed and picked Pikachu up.

"Pi Pi Pi!!!" Pikachu squealed as May twirled him and then hugged him.

"May…"Ash stepped through the crowed and stared at her. She gasped.

"May…"

"Ash…"

"Hi May," Misty interrupted softly, Brock stepped next to her.

"Hey May," She shook her head and smiled at Misty and Brock.

"Hello guys. How are you doing?"

"We're ok," Brock answered. "How bout you?"

"Alright. Just waiting in this here line to sign up for this pre-coordination."

"Uh pre-coordination?" Ash asked as the gang joined May in line. She blushed as she handed him Pikachu back embarrassed.

"It's a Pokemon contest that although official doesn't give out ribbons. Its' great practice!" May exclaimed smiling excitedly.

"Oh wow! Does that mean I get so see a pokemon contest after all? Misty asked happily.

"Sure I'd love for you guys to watch." May smiled and did a V for victory sign.

Short yes yes…peh ok I don't want to hear it… just joking sorry but I've had finals and midterms…so I've reread my fic and well the next three or two chapters are just as short so I'll group them together and post them at the same time to make up for the poor length…Don't worry I'll try to do it this week since I won't have hard classes for now.
