Hello again! Wow, a third update for a minor fan fiction? This won't be happening again, I bet. Unless another fan fiction like Legend of Zelda comes around and impresses me. Anyway, I believe that this will be the last one for the day, anyway. Expect another one next Sunday or, if you're lucky and good little readers, earlier. I'll always be updating regularly, as much as I can. Especially with all the time I have on my hands this week.

I'm getting off track here. Let us begin Chapter 2!

Chapter 2: Help the Poor Pokémon!

"Look, there it is! The Pokemon Center!" Dawn shouted, pointing in its direction. Everyone in the SUV quickly turned their heads to look out the nearest window. There it was, the Pokemon Center famous for being the most high tech one in the whole world. Its popular orange roof and multi-leveled design also made it the world's largest.

"Good thing we came in an SUV, huh? Without it we wouldn't be able to save the Pikachu." Brock said, looking onto the street for any passing pokemon or human. Everyone nodded or verbally agreed.

Everyone but Ash.

Ash continued to make sure that the injured pokemon stayed alive. He couldn't help but look at the huge gash in one of her electric pockets. 'Who would do such a thing to such a poor pokemon? Did it have a trainer? Is it truly abandoned? If so, who was its trainer?' Thoughts like these circled around Ash's mind, closing him off from any conversation that may include him. When he snapped out of his thoughts, he turned to his Pikachu.

"Pikachu," Ash said, "I need you to give her some electricity. Can you do that, please?" Pikachu nodded, looking determined to help her. He put his tail on the uninjured electric pouch and electricity started to flow into it. Ash's Pikachu began to watch the injured Pikachu, seeing if it would help her even regain consciousness.

It did.

The injured Pikachu opened one of her gorgeous blue eyes, immediately scanning the area around her. Once she saw Ash's face again, she opened her other eye widely. She looked as though she was going to panic and run. When she tried to get up, however, her pain struck like lightning and forced her to stay down.

"Hey, don't worry. I won't hurt you. I'm here to help." Ash said, trying to comfort the scared pokemon. She looked up at him, just staring. It made Ash feel somewhat weird, until she nodded and shut her eyes again, going to sleep.

"We're here!" Misty said, opening the door and walking out. She was followed by the other girls, followed by Ash, Brock, and Cilan. Ash began to run into the Pokemon Center, knowing that there is no time to waste.

"Nurse Joy! Nurse Joy! We need your help!" Ash pleaded, running into the Pokemon Center. "It's an emergency!"

"Oh dear, what's wrong?" Nurse Joy replied. Ash showed her the injured Pikachu, making sure its eyes weren't forever closed. "Oh my! What happened?"

"We don't know. All we know is that you have to save it!" Ash said, his Pikachu nodding in agreement.

"I'll do the best I can!" Nurse Joy said, taking the tiny Pikachu off of Ash's hands. "Audino! I need a stretcher for an extra small electric Pokemon!"

This made Ash think. Extra small? He looked once more at the injured Pikachu. It looked about five times the size of a Joltik. In other words, very small. He watched as Nurse Joy carefully placed it on the stretcher an Audino gave it, and it was whisked away into the ER.

Minutes passed, then they turned into hours. The group just waited in the room next to the ER. The light was still on, but they didn't know whether the pokemon was safe or not. Everyone had already begun to worry after the first hour that had passed.

Dawn was talking to her Piplup, reassuring it that the injured Pikachu was okay. Iris was sitting and talking to Misty and May, about how they hope that the injured pokemon would be okay. Brock and Cilan discussed ways they could help Nurse Joy. Ash just stared at his Pikachu huddling up with any electric type pokemon everyone had. After the first few minutes, the electric type pokemon had come out of their pokeballs and had huddled around each other, talking in their own natural language.

~In the ER~

"Audino, use the super potion on any remaining wounds!" Nurse Joy ordered, bandaging up the last big wound on the pokemon's body.

"Audin!" Audino replied, obeying Nurse Joy's command. She commenced spraying the super potion all over the body of the poor pokemon. In return, the pokemon winced slightly at the burning sensation of the super potion.

"I'm going to scan you for any illnesses you may have, so stay still okay?" Nurse Joy asked the injured pokemon. After waiting for Audino to finish up spraying the Pikachu, she started the scan. The image of the pokemon on the monitor of the computer was slightly blurred until she ran the second scan.

What she saw, she would never forget.

"Oh my word!" Nurse Joy said, her eyes wide as dinner plates. "This can't be real!"

She ran the scan a third time, fourth time, fifth time. It came up as the same image of the pokemon. Her computer even identified the pokemon as what it was. She looked at the pokemon, her mind racing with questions as to why it was here.

She ran into the room, along with her Audino. It was confused as to why her master was acting so strangely. Nurse Joy picked up the strange pokemon and put it on a different stretcher and pushed it out of the ER.

~In the waiting room~

The light above the door turned off with a suspense-filling "ding". Everyone got up and ran to the door. The electric type pokemon got in front of them, anxious to know what happened to the injured pokemon.

Nurse Joy walked out of the ER with the small "Pikachu" on the stretcher. Her sky-blue eyes were wide, and so were her Audino's. This confused the group of pokemon lovers and their electric type pokemon.

"Is she okay? Is she dead? Does she have Pokerus?" The questions circled around Nurse Joy like a cyclone. As they continued, she just shook her head until their questions ceased.

"Fortunately, she is the healthiest she's been in a few years." This announcement from Nurse Joy made everyone sigh in relief. However, she had more to say. "Ash, we need to talk."

The now smiling pokemon trainer looked at Nurse Joy's solemn face. His smile was wiped clean off his face. "Yeah, Nurse Joy? Do you need something?"

Her head went down, her Audino following her movements. The group held their breaths, bracing themselves for the worst and hoping for the best. The "Pikachu" on the stretcher, still fast asleep, rolled over. This caught the attention of the other electric-type pokemon that were outside of their pokeballs. They all climbed or flew up to the stretcher to check on her, wondering if she would wake up.

"What is it you need to tell me?" Ash asked a second time, getting more and more curious as time passed. He looked back from Nurse Joy to the "Pikachu" back to Nurse Joy. "Is something wrong?"

"No…" Nurse Joy replied. "It's... It's just odd..."

Ash raised a brow in confusion. "What do you mean, Nurse Joy? Odd that it was found hurt like this?"

"Not exactly..." Nurse Joy answered, looking Ash solemnly in the eyes. "What I'm trying to say is..."

Ash waited for Nurse Joy to gather her thoughts, for he, too, was attempting to say anything to her, to ease her process of thought. However, what she said made his thought go right out the window.

"Ash, this is a legendary Pokémon. It's new, and it's the only one left."

Oh my! A new legendary Pokémon in the form of a Pikachu? How could this be?

Well, unless you didn't read the title of this fan fiction, you'd have no idea what it would be named.

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Review if you have any criticism or anything you would like to say about the fan fiction. I will see you in this fan fiction again soon!
