The Hero Game
KIDS
Chapter 5: A Team
Hello! I forgot to edit the last chapter! I'll fix that later!
I'd like to give a personal thanks to breedy95 for being my ONLY reviewer! I appreciate it soo much! Thank you for the kind words!
Both groups wanted to avoid being seen, so they both hid in the forest most of the day, and only ventured out at night. They didn't want to get caught as runaways.
After a few days, the children had accually met up with each other. They had followed their hearts through many towns, and eventually met each other.
Gary, the self proclaimed leader he is, immediately knew what to do. He handed Dawn and May some Pokeballs, then gave Paul and apolegetic expression. "I don't have any more." He said sheepishly, looking at his feet.
Brock stepped forward and handed Paul one of his Pokeballs. "You can borrow Gravler." He said.
Paul took it gratefully and, seeing as it was night, ventured into the nearby town. They passed by many stores before Iris and Leaf stopped. Harley, with Molly in his arms, turned to look at them.
"Cilan..." Iris called, gesturing for him to come forward. He complied and looked at the display TVs the girls were looking at.
"14 children missing throughout the regions. All gone without a trace." The TV broke away from the female announcer to show Leaf's parents.
"We always keep such a close eye on her!" Leaf's mother cried, "It's a wonder how she could've slipped away!" The TV then switched from Leaf's parents to Gary's dad.
"I had given him some pokemon to train with, so I know he's somewhat safe. But I wonder where he's gone. Whether he's lost or kidnapped, we need to find him!" Professor Oak said.
There was Miss Ketchum, who cried hystaricly while Spencer had a forlorn face. Misty's sister gave a brief description of how Misty would act around strangers, and explained why she would never be normally abducted. Brock's parents looked ashamed of themselves as parents. The Petalburg Gym Leader and his wife had frightened faces as they talked to Officer Jenny. Two very elegant looking people looked very calm as they gave a very vague discription of Drew Hayden, their now nannyless son. Reggie Shinji appeared with a very tall man, supposedly their father. Dawn's Mom seemed desprate for someone to save her poor daughter, she was completely convinced there was a kidnapper on the loose. An old woman appeared with an expression of pure sorrow. She talked of their tribe's dear Iris, and how she would be missed. Two boys came next, one with blue hair, one with red. The red-head ranted on how he would definitely catch the crook, while the blue haired child muttered aimlessly to himself, completely frazzled. A very dramatic looking man came last. He talked in run on sentences and seemed to never need to breathe. He was covered in paint splotches as he talked about his young artistic son.
"Molly, Ash, Gary, Leaf, Misty, Brock, May, Max, Drew, Paul, Dawn, Iris, Cilan, and Tracy have all vanished without a trace. Who is responsible for these dissapearences, and who's next?" The TV clicked off, along with the 'Open' sign in the window.
Everyone walked away, but stopped when Leaf didn't follow them. She had fat tears running down her cheeks and made no attept to wipe them away.
"What's wrong, Leaf?" Gary asked worridly, wiping away her tears as they continued to fall.
"Mommy's a LIAR!" Leaf yelled, looking at her shoes. Gary gave her a confused look. "She doesn't watch me! Ever! I walked out when they were fighting again! They don't care!" She screamed hystaricly, stomping her foot.
Solidad was quick to react. "It's okay..." She soothed, rubbing Leaf's back. She set Max down and let him crawl over to May before swallowing Leaf up into a hug.
"No it's not!" Leaf cried, she then clung to Solidad's shirt, "Nobody cares about me!"
Solidad looked at her, completely honest. "We care." She said, hugging her again. "And we'll find the pokemon together, and make sure we're always friends. Forever. We'll always be a team, no matter what."
"More than a team! More than friends!" Misty cried, hugging Leaf, too. "We'll always be the bestest friends in the whole world! Forever!"

This is a semi-cliff for reasons you may not have noticed.
WHO is Tracy! WHERE is he!
WILL the 'kidnapper' strike next!
WHEN will I finish this!
WHAT is inside the box from the Ditto!
WHY did I write this!
I'll answer the last one. I wrote this because I read another fanfiction with the characters as children, and was left needing more! So after a long search of trying to find amazing moments of these heros as children, I found ZIP! So I wrote something myself.
Again, Thanks breedy95!
Toodles!
