Chapter 6
Ash and the gang woke up, refreshed for Ash's semi-final match today. They had a huge breakfast (Ash eating everything in sight and Brock hitting on every girl there) and head down to the stadium. Ash's match was in 10 minutes, so he was trying to act calm in the waiting room with his friends when Misty gave him a hug.
"Good luck, Ash." Whispered Misty as she hugged Ash.
"Uhhhh thanks Misty." As he hugs her tighter.
They suddenly realized they were hugging and let go quickly, blushing furiously. Of course, May and Brock saw the whole thing and exchanged looks again.
"Now, Ash Ketchum and Justin Chang, please report to your stadium for your match." Said the announcer through the loudspeakers.
'Time to go' thought Ash as he walks out to his stadium. His opponent was an Asian guy with really small eyes.
"Hey, that guy looks like Brock with the small eyes!" said Max as Brock turns all red and everybody laughed.
"This will be a 3 on 3 semi-final match taking place on a rock field, between Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town and Jeffrey Chang from Pacifidlog Town."
"I will start things off things with Nintales!" yelled Jeffrey as he tossed up his fire pokemon.
'Ok, if Ash doesn't use his Cawphish, I will hit his head so hard that… (the rest will be left to imagination. :D)" thought Misty as Ash calmly chooses his first pokemon.
"Go, Cawphish!' said Ash as he threw Cawphish out on the field.
Jeffrey ordered a take down attack while Cawphish did a crabhammer on Ash's order. Both came away, receiving damage as their attacks hitted their opponent.
"Now, Cawphish, bubblebeam." Commanded Ash as Cawphish unleashes a stream of bubblebeam.
"Counter with fire blast, Ninetales." As Ninetales let out a huge star of fire toward Cawphish. The result was a huge explosion and both pokemon fainted.
"Both pokemon are down. This round is a tie.!" Said the announcer as both trainers looked in shock and returned their pokemon.
"Go, Glalie/Golduck." Yelled Ash and Jeffrey as they both send out their pokemon.
Glalie starts with an ice beam while Golduck respond with a hydro pump. The result was a huge explosion and both pokemon took some damage.
"Glalie, use headbutt." Said Ash as Glalie went towards Golduck.
"Golduck, dodge and use fury swipes!' yelled Justin as Golduck dodged and used fury swipes and left scratch marks on Glalie.
"Glalie, use icy wind." Said Ash as Glalie blew a powerful cold wind toward Golduck, causing Golduck some damage.
"Glalie, use headbutt at full power." Said Ash as Justin said "Golduck, use focus punch at full power too."
The two pokemon flew together with a huge explosion and was both knocked out.
"This match is also a tie, with each trainer with one pokemon left." Yelled the announcer as the crowd was stunned at how close this match was.
"Now go, Grovyle!" said Ash as Grovyle looked calm and took out its trademark twig.
"Go, Vigoroth!" said Justin as he threw out his Vigoroth.
Grovyle started with pound while Vigoroth dodged quickly.
"Now, Vigoroth, use slash." Said Justin as Vigoroth responded quickly and hurt Grovyle badly.
"You okay, Grovyle?" said Ash as Grovyle gave him thumbs up and stood up quickly. "Now, use leaf blade." As Grovyle flew towards Vigoroth for revenge and hit it with it's leafs on its arm.
"Now, let's end this and use a full power leaf blade!" yelled Ash.
"Let's go, Vigoroth. Use a full power slash attack," yelled Justin.
The two pokemon collided and their attacks were simply too fast to dodge.
Both pokemon was down and both trainers were yelling at their pokemon, trying to get them to get up. Slowly, Grovyle got up painfully and the referee said "Grovyle wins. The match goes to Ash Ketchum!"
The crowd went wild as Misty and the others ran up to congratulate him on his win. Misty gave a small hug as she still remembered what embarrassing moment that happened during Ash's last match.
"Good job, Ash! Now you are on the final match of the Hoenn League!" said May as the whole group celebrates at a restaurant.
"Yeah, then I am going to win the Hoenn League!" yelled Ash as he stands up, jumping in joy.
"Sit down, Ash." Said Brock as everybody in the restaurant looked at Ash as if he was crazy.
They all got some food from the buffet line and Ash pigged out as always, eating most of the restaurant's food.
They went back to their rooms and got some sleep for Ash's next match.
Ash had a private with Pikachu in their room while Misty was thinking about Ash in her room.
In Ash's room…
(When are you going to tell Misty that you like her?) asked Pikachu.
"I don't know, Pikachu!" said Ash quietly so he doesn't wake the others.
(Well, you can just tell her after the match.) Said Pikachu.
"Good idea, Pikachu. That way, if she rejects me, it's not like I will see her again!" said Ash.
'Not the idea I had in mind, but if it gets him to confess…' thought Pikachu.
"Go to sleep, Pikachu. We have a match tomorrow, our biggest one ever. We want to be ready and refreshed." Said Ash as he rolls over with thoughts of Misty on his mind.
In Misty's room…
"Why is it so hard to tell a person that you love them? Probably because that person is your best friend… And I can't tell him because he would just run away. But I rather have him as a friend than not at all… He will probably leave on another journey, but maybe I can go with him and spend some more time with him.' thought Misty as she tried to get some sleep.
Alright, finally updated.
Damn you, school…
