Mayhem ensues
Ash was fast asleep, the fire slowly dying. Misty took this as an opportunity to write in her diary, seeing as to she was the only one awake.
Misty: sigh I really should tell Ash how I feel…what do you think diary? I will, but I have to let him tell me first! Sometimes I really wish I wasn't the way I was…I wish sometimes I could be like a normal person, like May, and just tell him how I feel. –M
Misty settled back in her sleeping bag and snuggled closer to Ash, resting her head on his shoulder, falling back asleep.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket was lurking in the bushes, watching and waiting.
Jesse: Lookie here James, the girl twerp is back.
James: If only he knew how much she loved him.
Jesse: and if only she knew how much he loves her.
Meowth: yup that's right! Them twerps is going to end up together, I just knows it.
Jesse and James together: SHH! SHUT UP MEOWTH! You'll wake them!
The morning came. Brock smiled as he woke up. Seeing Misty so comforted by Ash's presence, and vice versa of course. Quietly he got up and started with the breakfast. Not too long after, May woke up as well.
May: it sure is nice to see that those two are together again. I cannot imagine what it would have been like just you and ash those long days. They sure seem to like each other enough.
Brock: if only one of them would just say it.
May: Misty says it's because of her old fashioned ways. She wants ash to tell her first. They sure do seem to be so close friends, wouldn't that screw it up if they dated?
Brock: there is always that risk may. Always. But for ash and misty, I don't think it will be a problem.
As the morning progressed, ash and misty woke up and blushed, realizing how they were sleeping, and quickly slipped to the forest in opposite directions. Max was soon to follow, as he was still a child and needed to sleep longer than the rest.
May: Look mist, you have to tell him. Just look at how peacefully you slept last night.
Misty: no may! I already told you! I want him to say it first! And don't call me mist!
Misty and may continued like this for about half an hour, while Brock and max convinced ash to tell misty how he felt.
Ash: okay then. I will tell her. But what if she doesn't like me back?
Brock: then at least you will know how she feels, and you will have told her, but trust me, she will like you back.
Max: (teasingly) yea especially after leaving you for so long!
Just as soon as the girls came back to camp, Team Rocket jumped out of their hiding place.
Jesse: prepare for trouble
James: and make it double
Jesse: to protect the world from devastation
James: to unite all people within our nation
Jesse: to denounce the evils of truth and love
James: to extend our reach to the stars above
Jesse: Jesse
James: James
Jesse: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light
James: Surrender now or prepare to fight
Meowth: Meowth that's right!
I just had to put that in there! I love the motto!
Ash: Not you three!
Misty: We'll fight you!
May: I'll be over here, watching
Brock: me too
Max: Babies! Don't you want to help fight Team Rocket?
May: no, not really, besides, what can we do?
Max: you're right.
Brock: my pokemon need rest.
Ash: then we'll take them ourselves! Come on Mist! Go Pikachu!
Pikachu threw his thunder shocker at Team Rocket.
Misty: Staru GO!
Staru and Pikachu worked together to send team rocket blasting off.
Team Rocket: (distantly) looks like Team Rockets blasting off again!
May: that was easy enough
Misty: Speak for yourself.
Ash: oh boy! They're at it again.
Brock: maybe we should walk away slowly…
Ash: good idea.
May: Could you make it any more obvious?
Misty: WHAT!
May: I'll help ash fight off team rocket, then he will declare his undying love for me!
Misty: I did not say that!
May: you were thinking it!
Misty: was not!
May: oh, so you don't like ash?
Ash, at the mention of his name, looked up to see what the two were talking about.
May: come on misty, give it up! You love ash and you know it!
Misty: I do not!
May: so what you told me while walking around about missing him and wanting to travel with him again was a lie?
Misty: no! I just, that is…
Ash was interested, so he walked a little closer to the girls, hearing misty stumble and stutter made him curious, so he naturally asked.
Ash: Mist, is that true?
Misty: well, um, that is…
May: oh get on with it! I will be at camp.
May turned and left. Leaving ash and misty alone to talk.
oooo! I created a cliffy!
