Hello it be Terradoll, the one-and-only. This is the second part of my Lovely Bones crossover. this is the part where Ash realizes he's dead and meets Susie Salmon. So! Since everyone ran away, I'll say the disclaimer!

I do not own Lovely Bones or Pokemon. If I did...Bleh. I said this in the last chapter. Sorry Ash's death was a little...hidden. I just find it really sickening when there's fics about him dying and they're all about blood. I just can't read them. And the movie is actually very hidden


about the death as well.

PS. From now own there will be switching POV's mainly between Normal and Ash. It will sometimes be Misty or Terra.

ENJOY!


Misty POV

Ash had been gone a while now. Brock and I were starting to get worried.

"Brock, we should go look for Ash," I said, standing up. Ash had left without any of his Pokemon as well so that's another thing that worried me. Completely defenseless.

"You're right," said Brock. It was probably close to midnight. I had a bad feeling Ash was in trouble. I just knew it.

Brock and I packed up camp and woke Pikachu. Pikachu took the route Ash had taken to get water the previous time.

'Please be Ok Ash. Please, just be Ok'


Terra POV

The deed was done. Ash Ketchum was dead. Finally. I breathed heavily as I stared at his body. Again, I had very little time.

I shoved the body into a deeper part of the cave. Maybe they would find him. Maybe they wouldn't. I didn't care. I had worn leather gloves to remove the chance or fingerprints. I'd burn the gloves later so there was absolutely no chance.

I aranged the body to look like it could be a murder or suicide. A knife was left by his arm. I'd barely used it, just enough to get a few screams out of the kid. Again, I had never handled it without the gloves. Can't take a chance.

I was ready to leave the cave. Leave Ash. Leave him and return to my life. I was almost out the entrance when I remembered something. I ran towards Ash and picked up his badge case and shoved it in my pocket. Now I was ready.

I jumped out of the cove and onto the rocks above. Nobody had seen me and I ran back to a forest where i disposed of the gloves, burning them and my black $3 clothes that I had bought simply for this purpose. Nobody, would find me.


Ash POV

I ran from the cave as fast as I could. She was going to kill me! I looked backwards and saw that she wasn't following me. Next, I ran towards the forest where Brock and Misty had been. I hoped they were still there.

"Brock! Misty! Pikachu!" I shouted into the forest. Our campsite was empty and all thats left was the smoldering ashes from the fire. Oh no. They left without me.

"Guys! Hey! Where are you! Guys!" I shouted into the forest. I ran through the forest, lost. "Misty! Pikachu! Brock! Anyone!" I shouted. I was far off the forest path and darkness consumed the area.

"Anyone..." I whimpered. I colapsed on the ground in tears. They were gone. I was wounded, lost, and had nobody to turn to. I didn't even have my hat. I cried myself to sleep.

"Wake up. Hey! Hey!" shouted a girl's voice. I opened my eyes to see sunlight pouring through the trees into the forest. It was beautiful. I turned to see a girl about my age kneeling beside me. She had pale skin and reddish-blonde hair. Her eyes were a crystal blue.

"Ugh..." I moaned as I sat up. I was still in the forest, I hoped. "Hey, where am I?" I asked her. She smiled. "In the edge of a forest right outside of a town named Pallet. Why?" she asked.

I was near Pallet Town. Near home. I could find my friends! I jumped up and ran towards where the trees thinned.

"Wait!" shouted the girl behind me. I couldn't stop though. I ran out of the forest and into Pallet Town. I wasn't prepared for what I saw.


Misty POV

'Please be Ok Ash, please please please please,' I thought. Pikachu led us to a cove with a neighboring cave. Ash was no where in sight. "Oh Ash, please be Ok," I said, tears forming at my eyes. Brock put his hand on my shoulder. "Crying isn't going to help Misty."

"I know I just..."

"I know you're worried about him, so we have to keep looking." I nodded.

Pikachu stood still and sniffed the air. Pikachu's eyes went wide. "Pikapi!" it shouted, pointing to the cave. Pikapi. Ash. Brock pulled out a flashlight and we went into the cave.

Pikachu ran about and looked for Ash, constantly shouting "Pikapi" into the air. Brock and I both looked around. Brock took one corner and I went with Pikachu to the other end. We came upon a dark area.

"Pikachu, use your thunderbolt to light up the area," I said to Pikachu. Pikachu nodded and released it's thunder attack. Lightning lit up the area. Nothing. We moved around the cave till we were almost in the back.

"Alright Pikachu, one last time," I said. Pikachu looked exhausted, but its eyes shone with determination to find its best friend. Pikachu generated a weak thunderbolt but enough to see what we saw.

A shadow on the wall. And part of a shoe. A white sneaker. The same sneaker that Ash...

Pikachu released a final thunder attack and we saw it. Ash's body. With a knife by the arm. There was some blood but hard bruises on his neck. Oh Ash, I never got to tell you...

I dropped to my knees in tears along with Pikachu. Brock heard us and came over with the flashlight. "Oh no. Ash," he breathed. He quickly pulled out a cellphone and dialed the police.

I hugged Ash's body. Tears rolled down my cheeks. I didn't know for sure but I was unfortunately almost 100% sure.

Ash Ketchum was dead.


Terra POV

I downed a black dress I had recently bought as I straightened my hair. Since I had traveled with the trio for a short time, I was given a notice that Ash died and that there was a funeral today. I clasped my diamond guitar necklace around my neck and looked in the mirror. I put on some heels and headed out the door towards Pallet Town.

The funeral was very crowded. Everybody Ash had touched or met, wow. I had also worn my Alice Cullen choker with my diamond necklace. I always pulled on the metal crest of the choker when I felt nervous or insecure. On time I gripped it so hard that the pattern was left in my fingers. This was going to be another one of those times.

People came up to me, talking about Ash and how wonderful he was. I nodded my head and looked sad. Truthfully, I felt a little guilty. Of course, after you saw Misty, Brock, Mrs. Ketchum, and Pikachu you had to feel guilty. They were all a wreck.

I walked by the casket. Open. They had dressed him in formal wear. Surrounding him were pictures of him and friends. His Pokeballs were almost beside him. His hat lay on his chest. He looked so peaceful.

"That's some nerve you have coming here. After what you did."

I whipped around to see a dark-haired girl standing behind me. She was skinny and wore a slim black dress.

"Sylvia," I whispered. "Not here, not now."

"Bathroom." she stated. I sighed. I had no choice.

We walked to the bathroom and Sylvia locked the door behind me.

"What? You know I had to do it. I mean, come on. We both wanted this for how many years now? I mean-" Sylvia cut me off. "I'm not mad at you! I've wanted this too. For a long time. I'm just surprised you showed up at his funeral." Sylvia was the one of the only people who knew that I had killed Ash. Her, and Kk. The three of us were really close friends and had all wanted Ash dead for...well, ever since we really met him.

"I know, I know. It's weird, it's wrong. But this way no one will suspect me. And I need to support Misty, Pikachu, Brock and Mrs. Ketchum. They're a mess," I said.

"Yhea. You took their only light out of their life. Feeling guilty? At all?"

"A little after I see them. Otherwise? No."

Sylvia sighed and held her hand to her head, "You have so many issues Terra. So many issues." We laughed and then got into 'character'. We opened the door and looked depressed, upset even though inside we were so glad.


Ash POV

Outside of the forest was Pallet Town Gravesite. There was a procession of people in black leaving a grave. Misty, Brock, Mom and Pikachu were among them. I walked up to Misty.

"Misty what happened?" I asked her. She looked up from the ground where she was crying. Her hair ws down and she wore a beautiful black dress. Her teary eyes glistened.

"Ah!" she gasped. Brock turned to face her. "What is it, Misty?" asked Brock.

"I thought...I thought I heard his voice. Ash's-" but she started crying again.

"Misty? Why did you start crying when you said my name? Misty what's wrong?" I shouted.

"I heard it again!" she said, her eyes filling up with more tears.

"Misty!" I shouted, grabbing her shoulders and shaking her. She jerked up to face me and her eyes got wide as she gasped in surprise.

"A-a-Ash!" she shouted. Brock stared at her in worry. "N-no! Y-y-you're...I-I saw t-the b-bo-" but she cut herself off by breaking into tears and dropping to the ground. Brock helped her up and led her away, Pikachu trailing at her ankle. It too, was crying.

I walked towards where they were leaving. Towards the grave everybody was mourning at. There were two Nurse Joys near it. As I went to look at the grave, I brushed one of their hands. She screamed, "Ghost!" into the air and then broke out in tears. But I didn't need her to tell me.

I saw the grave.

Ashton Satoshi Ketchum

1997-2010

May he be a Master in Heaven

I dropped to my knees. No. It couldn't be. It just...couldn't be. I couldn't be dead. I was here! They must've made a screw-up or something or... Then I thought back to what Misty had said.

"I-I saw t-the b-bo-" she stammered and never finished her sentance but now I know what she meant. She saw the body. My body. They all had. Everyone. And they all thought- no. They all knew. I was dead. That girl had killed me back in the cave. But I didn't know what she looked like. She wore a mask and black clothing and her hair was hidden. I couldn't even find my murderer.

I brust into silent tears, grabbing myself for support. I had no one to lean on. No one to turn to. It was over. I never would become a Pokemon Master or live my life in love with Misty. Misty... we had never even shared a kiss. I broke into more tears and then stood shakily.

I needed to get away from that horrid place. I ran back to the forest. Colors changed as I ran. I tripped and fell. I would've bled but I was already dead.

I curled up on the ground and cried myself to sleep again.


Continued Ash POV

When I woke up I was no longer on the forest floor. I was in a wooden structure. A gazebo. I stood up and looked around.

'I wonder how I got here' I thought to myself. I thought back to the previous day. The day I found out I was dead. I thought of Misty and all of a sudden and image floated in front of me.

It was Misty. Crying on her bed, hugging a picture of me. Pikachu was in her arms as well. 'At least I got to see her again. Maybe I can-'

"You're not allowed to do that up here."

I turned and saw the girl from yesterday. The girl who had found me in the forest. "Huh?"

"You touched her. You let her see you. You can't do that up here," she said. Her expression then changed into a sympathetic smile. "Trust me, it was hard for me too. But we have to keep moving."

"Up here? Where are we? Who are you? Hey!" I shouted as I followed her. She turned to face me and walked backwards. She put her hand in her blue coat pocket and pulled out a Pokemon League hat.

My Pokemon Leauge hat.

She tossed it to me and smiled. "I'm Susie Salmon. And you are?"

"A-Ash. Ash Ketchum," I said as I stared at my hat in my hands. "How did you-"

She shrugged, "Just put it on."

I did, and then she turned to walk again.

"Hey! You never told me what this place is! You said up here do you mean-" I gulped, "Heaven?"

She laughed and smiled. "No, we're not there yet."

"What?"

"Heaven. We're just not there yet. And this place, well. This is not just one place," she said as the scenery changed to a snowy park.

"Huh?"

"It's bits of both. C'mon," she said, waving me over next to her as we ran towards the gleaming sun in the horizon.
