Chapter 4, right now.
Electivire walks up to a door in the hallway of the hotel. He slowly opened up the door of this one room. He suddenly stepped on something that made the noise. It was a rubber duck. Electivire kicks it away and then looks at Ash and Pikachu in the bottom bunk, sleeping. He goes to put the Thunder Stone on Pikachu, but holds himself back. He looks at the stone and goes for it again, but again holds it back. He then gets angry and clutches the stone, he then throws the stone out of the window, landing on the grass. Electivire looks his hands and then rushes out of there, with the door closing. Pikachu suddenly awakens and sees the door close. He gets up and runs out to see a door open and light emitting from it. It's down the hall a ways. Pikachu speeds over and peeks in.
Paul: How could you not do it? I knew you were just as pathetic as that Pikachu. You couldn't even keep the stone? So stupid! This was last straw, the first thing in the morning, you're gone.
Pikachu suddenly gets wide eyed as Paul looks over.
Paul: Does the whole group always follow me?
Pikachu rushes back to his room and tries to awaken everybody, to no avail. He then thundershocks Ash, waking him up.
Ash: Pikachu, what gives!?
Brock: Morning already?
Dawn: Who gave what now?
Pikachu points out into the hall where Ash goes out and sees Paul with a suitcase.
Ash: Paul, what are you doing here?
Dawn suddenly lifts her head up.
Dawn: Paul?
She joins Ash and then Brock follows.
Paul: I've had enough of this constant bickering from you four, so I've decided to leave Sinnoh.
Everyone has wide eyes, but Dawn's the most shocked, and Ash didn't make any reaction.
Ash: Good riddance then.
Paul: Dawn, I saw and heard you talking to Mundo, did you get a key?
Ash: How would you know?
Paul: Is your name Dawn? No, now just keep cool for about five more minutes.
Dawn: Y-yes.
She brings it out for all to see. Paul sets his down and brings his keys out.
Dawn: Mine says Sinnoh made.
Paul: As does mine, and now that I look at it-
He suddenly throws the keys to Brock, who catches them.
Paul: There's not significant point of them.
He then goes to pick up his bags again, but stops and sets them down. He grabs a poke ball and tosses it to Ash.
Paul: You seem to like taking care of useless Pokemon, how about another?
Now he takes his bags and heads out of the hotel. Dawn suddenly runs out of the room, dressed, after him. Ash tries to go after her, but Brock grabs his shoulder, shaking his head when Ash looks back.
As Paul reaches the lobby, Mundo is seen.
Mundo: You my friend are getting yourself into bad business.
Paul looks at Mundo and sets his bags down, sitting down.
Mundo: Why did you get rid of the keys?
Paul: They were useless, there was no point of me having them, and there group is full of useless things.
Mundo: You think everything you don't approve of is either useless, or pathetic. You think everyone that doesn't appeal to you is weak and dumb. You think every girl you see, is ditsy and as dumb as a box of rocks, but one.
Paul looks up with a wide eyed expression.
Mundo: Oh trust me, I know.
Paul suddenly looks over to the stairs to see Dawn.
Paul: You can stop hiding, you always seem to be wherever I am recently.
Dawn walks out of the shadows, bag in hand.
Paul: Oh you've gotta be kidding me.
He looks over to Mundo who gives a wave of "well?"
Dawn: Please-
Paul: Just stop right-
Dawn throws her bag down to the floor.
Dawn: No you stop right there, just listen!
Both men in the room are caught of guard.
Dawn: You've been saying that our group is pathetic, weak, and are training our Pokemon wrong, but all along you've sat to the side, criticizing us for the way we do things, well guess what, we don't like it, when at the same time, it's vice versa, we criticize you for the way you do things, and I know you don't like it. You need to do two things, one, get your head straight, two, tell people of your past when they ask, and three, get your head out of your ass!
Both men are very wide-eyed by this. Dawn throws Paul back a poke ball.
Dawn: That's Electivire, isn't it?
Paul (Still Wide Eyed): How did you-
Dawn: My ears is not deaf, in fact it's way better than deaf.
Paul: I don't him he can keep it...
Dawn: Why, all because you tried to evolve Pikachu, and did a good thing by resisting?
Paul suddenly drops the poke ball, and starts to slowly walk towards Dawn. He eventually is inches from her face, enough that they can feel their breath, and to the point that she's blushing. He then suddenly grabs her hat and tosses it to Mundo who catches it. He arches her back and leans forward. She is incredible blushing at the moment. Out of nowhere he says...
Paul: Don't follow me!
He then sets her down to the ground and grabs his luggage, heading out of the hotel. She sits up and gets her hat back. A tear forms in her eye.
Mundo: Stage two, denial.
Dawn wipes it away and gets up, grabbing her bag. Mundo suddenly offers a hand shake.
Mundo: Nice way of putting him in his place.
She high-fives him and when that happens...
SCENE CHANGE
Dawn is seen walking through the town at random places, just randomly walking. On this day, the trio decided to split up on a two-one vote against Dawn. She had no idea where to go since her main stay was the mall. When she turned a corner to get some lunch, she bumps into.......May?
Dawn: May?
May: Dawn?
They suddenly get up and start doing what all girls do when I see them after they haven't seen each other in a while, jump up and down scream.
May: We have a lot to catch up on!
Dawn: I know! Let's go eat.
They walk into the restaurant to the left of them.
They sit down on a table, and they each tell each other all that's happened. Dawn tells all about Paul and how he left, while May says that Drew was sent to jail and he basically dumped her to "keep her safe". They each had a sad moment in this town and they shared it all.
Dawn: So, why did you come here?
May: Enjoyment, fun, vacation, have you been to the mall?
Dawn: Yeah, I nearly bought all the clothes, there was just so many.
May: I know right?
A waiter suddenly walks up with blue short hair and a good disguised black mustache.
Waiter: May I t-t-take your order today?
May: I'll have the spaghetti and meatballs.
Dawn: Me too please.
Waiter: I'll, b-b-be right w-w-with y-you soon.
He walks away to the back quickly.
Dawn: That was odd.
May: Just a bit, yeah. Anyway, hey, I have an idea, let's have a day with just us girls.
Dawn: Oh, let's do it!
Gonna end there. I'm gonna hopefully start the next chapter during the girls' day together, but from where Paul is. Anyway, this is Chapter 4.
