VulpixTrainer: Okay first off, I'm getting a little annoyed at Fan Fiction, it seems that my chapter 10 was replaced by chapter 11 and now I have two chapters 11's so I'm trying to fix these problem, and now to answer review questions
RaichuFan: I'm sorry that chapter 12 was confusing, so I will try and explain it up here: The Team Rocket attack that happened soon after Matt fainted was all just a dream and then it continued up until the first paragraph in chapter 12, and then he woke up. The dream was induced by the appendix which was starting to give him pains so Becky gets Matt to a hospital and has it removed and well the last part of the chapter will be explained right here
Dreams, Memories, and Reality Part 2
Her thoughts though where interrupted by Matt's breathing going from dream state to full awakens in under ten seconds making Becky think one last thing OH NO! He's going to see me. How will he react, Yell in fright? Go into cardiac arrest? Quickly turning away from the reflection of her Ninetales face looking at Matt waiting for the worst only to be surprised to hear his first words upon seeing Becky
"Becky, can you get my cup of water? It's by the bed." He crocked out in a horse voice. Becky just nodded and went over to the table to fill up the Styrofoam cup, as she did so she could hear Matt shifting around so that he would be in an upright position so he could drink the water, by this time she had poured to water and also put the plastic lid on it with a straw so he could more easily drink from it, It is just so unfair to see him like this Becky thought as he slowly sipped from the cup he is always mister sunshine, no matter what happens, I can even see him at an old age and still be happy go lucky. Her thoughts where then interrupted once again by Matt stopping to sip his water with another question, "Becky why are you dressed in a Ninetales costume? I mean it's not even close to Halloween and the festival has been over for about a week now." All Becky could do was staring at him he's not this dense, unless he is still a little affected by the atmosphere here, Hospitals can do that to you, loss track of time, forget things… "Uh hello Becky, anyone home?" this just made Matt do a small laugh trying not to hurt himself by that.
"Just thinking that's all Matt," she then pauses before it dawned on her that she could so him, while having some fun at it, but then Matt interrupted her thoughts for a third time. He is always remembering things in silence.
"Becky, can you get my pack for me? I believe that Stripes gave me something that I put there right before we went to wash the pots and pans, and well you know what happened next, I fainted." He then leaned back into the bed still wide awake half watching Becky walking over to the packs with nine tails flowing behind her while at the same time thinking about what new battle plans he could work on when he fully recovered, a few minutes later Becky had returned to the bed with Matt's Navy Blue Backpack and after rooting through the items pouch. Matt tried to do it himself but Becky stated that she was more then happy to help so Matt told her that it was a rock and that was all he could remember of it. Another few minutes later Becky had pulled out a rock wrapped in some sort of cloth, handing it over to Matt.
"Thank you Becky, now lets see what this thing is shall we?" and so Matt unwrapped the cloth only to gasp at was in his hands, it was a Fire Stone. But right away Matt could tell that it had been used already. "Well I'll be a Manky's Uncle, it's a used Fire Stone, and I think I would look very nicely upon my desk right next to my lamp.
"May I see it Matt, I never have seen a real Fire Stone?" Becky asked being that see had never seen a Fire Stone in her life, except for pictures she thought.
"Sure thing Becky, but please remove that costume soon, it's getting on my nerves. It just looks too real." He then hands over the Fire Stone to Becky and as she handles it she thinks of the perfect plan to show Matt that this is no joke well actually this is a joke, I normally just stay fully human or fully Ninetales, I just do this so I can hear better and I can scare away villains. At this she just does a small giggle remembering how a robber tried to break into her parent's house and she just scared him silly
"Matt I want you to do something; I also know how real they can get those costumes, including motors to flick the tails. But they can't attach them to the spine, if you pull on them you can rip them, so I want you to," at this she lifts one of her tails and lays it on Matt's hospital bed before continuing, "Pull this tail, I promise you that nothing bad will happen but this is the only way I can think of right now to show you that this is not a Costume." The last part she lets out at a fast pace so that she could finally get it off her chest."
Matt was having a very hard time to comprehend what Becky had just given him, Pull her tail? Not a costume? Wanting to show me something? What has Becky blabbering about? No Harm to me for pulling the tail? This sounds… At this get got it and it dawned on his face and a memory long forgotten came back to him
"Hello there, are you just visiting or in for a surgery too?" asked a ten year old Matt to a young Ninetales that had just woken up from sleeping on the chair next to the window, The next few antics that the Ninetales pulled, just went and make Matt almost crack up to the point of really hurting him from laughing or trying not to laugh.
The Ninetales at that moment upon seeing Matt and then it's own tales just spun around as if looking for the owner of the tails, finally it saw it's paws and just freaked out speaking at such a fast pace that it was hard to even understand the Ninetales' own words, but finally when it had finally calmed down Matt had started try and coax it over to his bed, when his parent's came come back up from breakfast they found a Ninetales asleep from exhaustion and Matt looking very happy to be petting a Ninetales
I was devastated when it disappeared, come to think of it Becky showed up a little bit after the Ninetales walk off… "Becky? It was you who were the Ninetales at my second open heart surgery weren't it?" this just made Becky to face fault sending the tail off the bed as well
"How… wait… now…" she stammered as she got back up trying to figure out how he knew without her sending memories of herself during that time
"How did I figure this out? Well lets just say I put two and two together finally, must say that you where very cleaver on hiding this from me…" he pauses for a moment before continuing "But why tell me now, you know you could have just said that the zipper got caught on the costume, or that you wanted to surprise me, so why now?" Matt asked with still confusion in his voice, but this time about why now and here
"Because I don't like keeping things from you anymore, besides you would have found out sooner or later, especially if you caught a Water Pokemon." She answered in a totally honest answer; "if you don't mind can I sleep on your foot of the bed?" she asked yawning showing all her teeth.
"Sure why not." This was then followed by Matt just chuckling at a volume that he finally found safe, next thing he knew Becky disappeared onto all fours, then he heard the chair wheels squeak as it was wheeled over to the bed then Becky's head appeared (well a Ninetales head) then she jumped onto the bed circled three time and laid down falling asleep, Good night my protector, thank you for keeping me safe. Then he too drifted off the sleep thinking on all the times he thought he saw a Ninetales keeping a safe distance from him but still watching. The last thing he saw was the moonlight hitting the wall clock reading 1:30, then the sweet blackness of sleep.
VulpixTrainer: well I hope you enjoyed the part 2 of "Dreams, Memories, and Reality" so now you find out why Becky was nervous when Matt was going to catch a Water Pokemon, also I must say that this was little short but I don't want to put two chapter's together making one giant one, so now until chapter 14 good bye
