-song: "together we make a promise" from "pokemon ranger and the temple of the sea"
-chapter 2-
"so, you have seen some others?" Ash asked, walking down the hallway with Dawn.
"yeah, Brock at least..." Dawn sighed," he never quits."
"fingured." Ash laughed.
"well...i want to find the others."
"i know what you mean. i was here with someone too." Dawn looked over
"but professor Rowan probably has him running all over...i probably won't see him until i get back to sinoh." Dawn laughed,
"someone's here with you?" Ash looked at her
"yeah, why?"
"oh, no reason. just making sure you're making friends..."
"hey, isn't that the ship's observatory?" Dawn looked into a room at a dome like lounge area. outside, all of the underwater pokemon could be seen, swimming happily
"yeah... i guess, and it looks like there's people here..." Ash muttered, looking into the room,
"i heard Artists and pokemon Reasearchers come on these things all the time to see new pokemon in their natural habitats. most often water." Dawn said
"yeah,"
"hey! let's go in and catch up a little more!!" Dawn tugged on Ash's wrist and dragged him in.
"o, okay!"
"pika!" Pikachu darted after
"Pip piplup!" Dawn's piplup ran in after.
"wow!" Dawn said she smiled and placed a gentle hand against the glass, as a love disc swam by.
"so cute,"
Ash was sitting on the couches inside, peering out, "hm...nothing but Water pokemon,"
"Mana! Mana Mana!"
Ash blinked and looked up as a high pitched, happy voice reached him.
"Mana...phy??"
"pika pika chu?" Pikachu tilted his head slightly.
"piplup! pip pip piplup!"
"wow! what is that?" Dawn looked over seeing Manaphy swim by.
"was that a...Manaphy?? the prince of the sea??" Dawn exclaimed, standing up.
"yeah...i wonder if it's looking for may, or if May's even here." Ash said to himself.
"Mana! Mana Mana phy!! Happy! Happy Love you!! Happy love you manaphy!" Manaphy jumped up and down, splashing the windows,
"wow...it still remembers all of that?"
"Mana! Mana Mana Mana Mana! Mana Phy!"
Manaphy then took off, jumping up,
"what?? it wants me to follow you?"
"Mana! Mana happy! Mana Mana Mana!"
"what is it?" Dawn asked
"um nothing. but i have to go be right back." Ash then got up and left the room. running around and up towards the sound of Manaphy's voice.
"do you even have the slightlest clue where we are May?"
Max asked.
the two had been wondering in circles for hours.
and had come to deck out front.
"well, maybe not, but look at the lovely veiw. you can see the stars." May smiled, looking out.
"Happy! Happy Love you! Mana! Mana Mana Mana!"
"and hear the pokemon." Max added
"what? don't be ridiculous. you can't hear the pokemon underwater."
"Mana! Mana! Mana! Mana Mana! Happy Love you! Happy Mana love you!"
May then blinked, hearing an oh-so-familiar voice.
"Mana...Manaphy?" may stood and walked to the edge of the deck to see him jumping up out of the water.
"what is it May?" Max asked
"it's Manaphy." May replied, in almost a trance.
"Happy!"
"Happy Love you!"
"Manaphy!!" May shouted down
"come up here Manaphy!!"
May leaned over seeing the pokemon
"Mana! Mana Mana Mana!" Manaphy then jumped up and landed in May's arms.
"Manaphy!!" May cuddled the sea prince, smiling
"oh! i knew i'd see you again some day!" May smiled
"gee, what do you know? guess he was really coming back after all!" Max said smiling
May turned and nodded "yeah."
"Mana! Happy love you May!"
"oh you remebered everything i taught you!!"
"Manaphy!" a door swung open and May turned.
"what?"
May's gaze turned, she looked up and at Ash.
"May?"
"A...Ash? is that you?" May asked quickly
in our never ending journey...
the road has split apart
a chapter written in a story, a finish to a start
"May?"
"Ash?"
"what are you doing here?" May asked quickly, she was still in a slight state of shock,
"you tell me." Ash said he smiled
"After Hoenn, i didn't think i'd see you for a while. then i found Manaphy." Ash anwsered.
"oh? so you think Manaphy brought you to me, again?" May asked she looked down at the sea prince who was just smiling happily.
and even though it feels like the end, My friend.
you know it's only the beginning.
it's the beginning!
Together we'll make a promise.
to never forget it all
we've only scratched the surface, of worlds we've come to know.
"quite possibly...i suppose."
"i thought you were going to Jhoto...with Drew and those others," Ash looked up and lightly sighed, facing May.
"well, i decided i was too quick to jump to decisions, so Max and i were sailing back home. Fancy meeting you though...i'm quite surprised. i thought we were surely too far apart to meet again." May said
"well, being a pokemon Trainer takes you everywhere...i ran into Misty and Tracey before, so what's to say i wouldn't run into you or Dawn?" Ash laughed a little, looking out at the sea.
"Manaphy's cute,"
"yeah, i'd almost forgotten." Ash gently rubbed Manaphy's head, while still letting it sleep in May's arms.
"to be honest, i missed Manaphy alot."
"yah i know. the little guy sort of grew on me. seeing as he thought i was his mom and everything..." May laughed a little, smiling
"so what's new with you?"
together, Moving Forward
even though we're far apart
so safe and sound inside our hearts
we'll keep our word until we are together once again.
Ash looked up "not much, i'm on this cruise with my mom. that's pretty much all. ran into Dawn a little while ago, now you." Ash shrugged
"oh that's great." May smiled
"it must be wonderful, having so many friends all over the region. Misty...Brock, Max and me, Jackie the ranger, and so many other people we've met. or that you've met Anyways." May sighed.
and did you hear me in a raindrop?
i'm not that far away
you can see in your reflection
a diffrent side of me
and even though we say goodbye, goodbye.
you know we're not alone
no we're not alone
Together we'll make a promise
to never forget it all
we've only scratched the surface of worlds we've come to know,
"so...it was nice running into you Ash." May smiled
"oh? well...it was nice seeing you too again May. and Manaphy." Ash smiled at the sleeping Sea prince that was cutely curled up in May's arms.
together Moving Forward
even though we're far apart
so safe and sound inside our hearts we'll keep our word until we are together once again
so goodbye to you
to the Memories
and everything that we went through
we made it to the ending
and to the other side of the moon
we'll hold onto the memories
of all the good times.
Together we'll make a promise
to never forget it all
"hey May..?"
May turned back to ash "yes?"
"you know...when Brock and i said we'd miss you and max, we meant it, i just...thought you might want to know that little thing...since the little things just seem to mean alot to you." Ash looked down Embarassed.
what was he saying? was it too late to take things back? ...or did May understand? maybe feel equal?...what was he saying? even he had no idea.
we've only scratched the surface, of worlds we've come to know
together moving forward
even though we're far apart
so safe and sound inside our hearts
it's all inside our hearts!
Together we'll make a promise...
"May," Ash looked up
"Can you forgive me?...for anything i've said?" Ash looked up, fearing he had offended May.
"no, i understand." May smiled
Ash looked up
"i understand. you're just confused. but i respect your feelings Ash...but," May bit her lip.
"I can't."
"um, that's NOT what i meant, but i guess."
"oh? well...nevermind then." May turned away and blushed
we'll keep our word until we are together once again
somewhere elsewhere...
"what a Boring trip! i run into an old friend and he ditches me!!" Dawn complained
"Pip piplup!" the Piplup spoke
"oh be quiet! i am not the mood!" Dawn snapped
"wow, what an amazing Pokemon!"
Dawn looked up and saw a boy in a light green shirt with a red headband and bangs stand up with a sketch book looking at her Piplup (a/n: yet another potential boy for our new coordiantor!! can you guess? )
"what?" Dawn looked up.
"your Pokemon! i've never seen one in person! it's sinoh only right?" Tracey looked at the Piplup, who seemed purely uninterested in Tracey,
"oh? um yeah. the water type starter is called Piplup. i've had mine for quite a while, but it hasn't evolved yet." Dawn sighed
"then again, it may never Evolve, it doesn't seem to want to." she added.
"well, while it's still a Piplup may i Draw a picture for professor Oak?" Tracey asked
"huh? oh...sure i guess." Dawn looked at Tracey for a moment, then at her Piplup.
"Behave and do what he says!" Dawn said strictly.
"Pip Piplup!" the Piplup pouted.
"oh fine!! do what you wish, just behave then!" Dawn snapped.
she then sat back and let Tracey begin drawing
"alright...just act Natural..." Tracey stared and then drew
"wow...you're such a good artist!" Dawn exclaimed, looking over Tracey's shoulder.
"really?" Tracey looked back at the Piplup
"Piplup Pip!" the Piplup spat, Angrily.
"oh! just hold it for a moment! it's almost perfect." tracey said
"Pip..PipLUP!"
"Whoa! Piplup!" Dawn lunged forward as the ship shook, Knocking her Piplup, her and Tracey down.
"what?!" Dawn asked in shock, she gripped the seat with one hand,
"it's like an earth quake!!!"
"or a stampede of Donphans!" Tracey exclaimed, also trying to hold on.
the shakign ended after a moment.
"whoa..."
Dawn stood up "i'm Dizzy! that was no fun," she complained.
"you okay?" Tracey extended a hand to her.
"oh?" Dawn looked at him, a light pink blush spread over her cheeks.
"you alright?"
"um...Yeah! just fine! just fine...perfectly okay!" Dawn said shortly.
"um...i finished the picture, but it got a little out, can i try again later?"
Dawn stood up and scooped up her Piplup.
"i'm sure, if i see you again,...but i think i'm late for something. so i'll see about later." Dawn said
"okay then."
"okay, bye."
"Hey wait!" Tracey called out to Dawn
the girl turned around
"hm?"
"i never got your name...i'm Tracey sketchit. or maybe you know me as Professor Oak of palete town's Asistant?"
"no, but i do know now i guess." Dawn smiled "i'm Dawn." she extended a hand
"nice to meet you too."
"so...do you know Ash ketchum?"
"yeah, i suppose you could call it i knowing him." Dawn shrugged
"oh, he's an old friend of mine, he started out in palete town, with Misty and Brock. i remember the Orange Islands. that was a great time. have you seen Ash around lately?"
"um, yeah...but then he bolted off to somewhere..." Dawn shrugged
"don't worry, i'm sure Ash didn't mean to upset you or anything. he's really a nice guy. down to earth and simple. but nice. that's for sure." Tracey reassured Dawn.
"oh i know that...i went around Sinnoh region, which is where i'm from with him and Brock! it was a really great time! but, i've never seen him rush off like that. to be honest." Dawn shrugged
"but i suppose it might have had to do something with a bunch of other trainers and coordianators on this ship...maybe he was called by someone." Dawn sighed.
"well, i guess i'd better be going...see you. Tracey."
"Bye, Dawn."
the two exchanged an awkward glance and then Dawn bolted off,
"well...i wonder if i'll get to find out some more about her from Ash..." Tracey thought and went back into the room
"Lapras!"
Tracey blinked, hearing a familiar cry.
"LAPRAS? what are you doing out of your pokeball?"
"Lap Lapras!" the Lapras exclaimed
"oh...then we'd better go! find Ash and the others! if anyone else is here," Tracey muttered and then left.
somewhere with Dawn...
"well, that was Awkward! oh jeez!! why can i never get rid of the awkward blush??? gah! i am such a loser! i don't even know why i did that! i didn't even like Tracey!..." Dawn stopped
"or did i? was that why...?"
"oh well! can't put too much thought into it!" Dawn sighed
"Chimchar! Ember!"
Dawn blinked and paused. freezing in her tracks.
"Lucas?" she asked mentally
the young girl peered around the corner, sure enough there was Professor Rowan's Asistant. the ever cute, charming and friendly Lucas.
"oh goodness! Rowan didn't tell me he was here! no wait...professor Rowan did. but then why am i blushing again?? oh! Get a Grip on your emotions Dawn! you have a job to do as a pokemon Coordinator!! not a boy crazy irresponsible girl!" Dawn thought.
"but he's still so cute! and he has a shinx!! okay...why am i obsessing over pokemon a very--no, extremely Cute Boy i like has? okay! i've got to either talk to him or just let it pass!! oh, but i'm still blushing!!"
Dawn sighed
"Pip Piplup! Pip pip pip pip pipLUPPPPP!" the Piplup Screamed, Tugging on Dawn's Socks.
"what?"
"Pip Pip Pipppppp! Pip pip piplup!"
"WHAT?! the ship is---FILLING WITH WATER AND SLOWLY BUT SURELY SINKING?!?" Dawn shreiked
Lucas looked over and blinked.
"Dawn?"
"Lucas!!" Dawn looked over and blinked
"um...what's going on? what's wrong with your Piplup?"
"um..."
"gee, this is your chance to be a hero Dawn! save everyone's lives by telling him the hsip is sinking, or let everyone die by talking to the boy you like and convincing him to like you..."
"PIP Pip piplup!!!! PIPLUP!" the Piplup screamed tugging on Dawn's Socks, which were a little Damp as the water leaked in
"what's wrong with you?" Lucas asked
"um..."
"TELLHIM!"
"um..."
"...is something going on?"
"TELLHIM!"
"...Dawn?"
"..."
"Dawn?"
"THE SHIP IS SINKING!!!" Dawn Finally shouted
"what?" Lucas blinked
"yeah! My Pokemon Told me! we need to tell everyone!!"
"well,"
"Chimchar! Return!"
the Chimchar was returned to it's ball as Lucas saw flooding water.
"what's your plan?" Lucas asked, Eyeing Dawn
"oh? um...Run around the ship telling Everyone."
"you know how fast this could turn into the Titanic?" Lucas asked with a sigh
"um..." Dawn blushed
"well,"
"oh forget it! let's go find Ash!! he'll help the word get around!" Dawn tugged on Lucas's Wrist and dragged him down the hall and up the stairs.
"Dawn?!"
"Nevermind, let's just go!!" Dawn shouted
the two splashed down the hall, in the water.
"Hurry!"
