Chapter 5: Meeting Charmaine
The group of four entered the local Pokémon Center in search of a place to stay overnight. Walking over to Nurse Joy, they had failed to notice a Pichu following them.
"Hello! Welcome to the Veilstone Pokémon Center, how may I help you?" the pink haired nurse greeted them with a smile.
Brock was seen kneeling and holding the nurse's hands in less than a second, causing the group to sweatdrop and the nurse to stare at him in confusion.
"You could help me heal my heart! Nurse Joy, let us ride into the sunset-" he was soon interrupted by a Poison Jab, courtesy of a blue toxic frog known as Croagunk, who dragged his trainer to a place where we do not know.
The Pichu decided to have some fun while the humans were distracted, so it crept up to Ash's shoes, untied the laces, then dashed behind the counter.
"Is he going to be alright?" Nurse Joy asked them worriedly.
Dawn gave her a warm smile. "Yes, no need to worry! Do you happen to have any spare rooms for four?" she asked, since the building seemed pretty full.
"I'm sorry, but we only have two rooms. One with two beds, the other with only one, but could fit two. Would you still want them though?"
"Yes please!" Dawn answered eagerly, wanting the comfort of a bed on her back. The other reason was because she wanted to room with Ash in the bedroom with a single bed.
"Okay. Enjoy your stay!" she responded cheerfully.
"Thank you!" Dawn replied, equally cheerful, before joining the rest of the group, including Brock, who were seated on a couch.
"Hey guys! I got the rooms!"
"Alright!" our favorite, cap wearing trainer exclaimed before tripping on his shoelaces, causing the girls to giggle.
Soon, the giggling turned to full blown laughter due to the fact that the boy had fallen on his face.
Pikachu was confused. He could've sworn his partner's shoe laces were tied when they entered the Poké center. Wanting to get to the bottom of this 'mystery', he soon spotted a baby electric mouse laughing like there was no tomorrow.
Appoaching it's pre-evolved form, he asked "Were you the one who embarassed my trainer?"
The Pichu looked surprised. Looking up, his expression mirrored someone who had found an old friend. "Pikachu? Is that you?"
Recognizing the little mouse, Ash's Pikachu was soon seen hugging the life out of it.
"Hey Zappy!" he exclaimed, overjoyed that his friend was with him.
"Zappy!" Zappy, where are you?" a feminine voice familiar to Ash and May asked.
A beautiful 17- year old girl could be seen walking around the room looking for her Pichu. She had black wavy hair in a ponytail, violet pupils, and light skin. She wore a black shirt with yellow stripes, a red skirt in plaid, and silver sandals.
Spotting her pokémon, she ran to it and started scolding.
"There you are! I've been looking for you everywhere! You know how I feel about you running off like that! What if you were in trouble and I wasn't there to help you? I'm just glad you're safe!" she sighed, finished with her rant.
She soon noticed the Pikachu who watched the scene with interest. "Pikachu? But that means-"
"Charmaine!" the couple said happily.
Turning around, she spotted her friends. "Ash? May? Is that you?" she asked, her enthusiasm seeping into her words.
Yay! Finally done with chapter 5! Sorry this took so long to come out! I had a bit of a writer's block and the IPad I was using to update was confiscated by my Dad for a while. And if anyone asks, Charmaine is based on me. She's exactly like me other than the fact that her eyes are violet and mine are brown. We're even wearing the same outfit! XD Plus, if you noticed the change in rating, that would be because there will be some mild swearing and suggestive themes.
