Hi, minna-nyah. Okay, chapter 6. All I can say is that they'll be traveling route 3, going through and then through route 4 on their way to Cerulean City, though not for the gym badge.
Ash and her group were at the Pewter City Pokemon Center, healing their Pokemon, before heading out. She smiled, as she received Pikachu back. But then something happened that she hadn't expected in her entire life. Nurse Joy looked at her. ''Ashlyn Ketchum, right?'' She gave a small nod, as she located Pikachu back on her shoulder and the rest of her poke balls on her belt. ''Well, this man came over a few hours ago when you were having your gym battle, he asked me to keep this safe for you.'' The nurse then got out a Pokemon Egg, it was a light blue with a small white stripe down the front.
''Uh, okay.'' said Ash, as she took the Pokemon Egg, taking a good look at it. She wasn't sure, so she decided to look back up at Nurse Joy and ask her question. ''Do you have any idea what Pokemon is in it?''
''I might, but the man told me not to give you any inclinations as to what it is, so you'll just have to wait until it hatches. Here's a incubator to keep it safe within.'' She handed a red-lidded incubator, which Ash gingerly put the egg within and took a hold of. ''Be careful with that egg, while it's like that. The man also asked me to give you a ultra ball to catch the Pokemon with when it hatched.'' Ash nodded slowly, taking the ball, knowing that the Pokemon must have been very rare to require a ultra ball to catch.
Luchia walked over, with her Eevee and Riolu walking by her side. ''What's that, Ash? How did you get a hold of a Pokemon Egg?'' She looked very confused and a little curious as she looked at her sister's new egg. She looked down at Riolu, who simply gave a shrug in response. ''You're helpful...'' She muttered, with a sarcastic tone in her voice.
''Well, Nurse Joy gave it to me, saying that a man had told her to give it to me when I was done battling. Though, I don't know what inside of it, apparently I'm not allowed to know until it hatches.'' She let out a sigh, as Pikachu patted her shoulder with one of his paws.
''Don't worry too much, boss. When little one gets here, you'll just have an even stronger team on your side.'' said the Pikachu, telepathically, which caused Ash to smile a little.
''Well, Luchia. Lets start heading to Cerulean City, so I can get the Cascade Badge!''
Luchia grimaced, knowing how Misty felt about all this, but she knew that she couldn't stop her sister from cheering her little head of. ''Woohoo...'' She weakly gave, as she looked down at her little Riolu, who sighed. She wasn't so interested, but she knew that she had to follow her sister to keep her out of trouble. ''Oh well. Lets just go, Riolu, Eevee...'' She walked after Ash, who met up with a smiling Brock and a still nervous Misty. She stood next to Misty as they began to walk out of the city. ''Are you really sure about not telling her?''
Misty didn't answer, as they started to walk through Route 3. She simply looked down, before managing to find her voice again. ''I might not even have to fight her...you see, the Cerulean Gym is split between 4 people...me and my older sisters, it has been since we were children...'' There was a touch of sadness in her voice when she said the last part, that caused Luchia to frown. She would have questioned it, but Misty continued. ''My sisters aren't actually the nicest, often teasing me for being puny and tomboyish, while they're all beautiful and feminine...'' They were now quite a while away from the other two in their group. She teared up a bit. ''They were the only ones to take care of me, after our parents abandoned us...''
Luchia frowned, before hugging the red-head. ''Shh, it's alright. We'll make sure your sisters' don't say a thing to you, when we arrive.'' She gently rubbed her hand through the water gym leader's hair. ''Now, you don't have to worry. We can just make sure that your further away from the battle, unless you really want to battle my sister.''
''I guess...on some level, I do want to battle Ashlyn, yes. I just don't want to see my sisters...''
Luchia began to think as she let go of Misty, who looked at her confused. Luchia then lit up like a bulb and whispered her idea into Misty's ear, who simply nodded in response with a small smile. ''I'll let Ash know about this.'' She called her sister over and began to explain her plan. ''You see, Ash...''
When she was done explaining, she gently watched her sister nod. Ash smiled at Misty. ''Well, I never would have expected that, but sure, we'll do it when your ready and thus, we can head to Vermillion City first, though it means passing through Cerulean City.''
''I'm okay with that...'' whispered Misty, with a small smile. The small smile seemed to grow, when she spotted something hop out of the grass. She pointed it out to her friends. ''Look, a Jigglypuff! Awwh, it's so cute.'' She pulled out a poke ball, and walked closer to the Balloon Pokemon, that was a more milder pink with green eyes. She called out her Pokemon. ''Starmie, come on out!'' The Mysterious Pokemon came from the ball, letting out its weird cry. ''Starmie, Rapid Spin then Hydro Pump!'' The star-shaped Pokemon did as it was told, knocking the Balloon Pokemon to the ground. Misty then got a spare poke ball and captured it. ''Yeah, I caught a Jigglypuff.''
Luchia giggled. ''And here I thought that, by being the gym leader of Cerulean City meant you only liked water types.'' She was just teasing, and Misty knew that as she gave a small smile, before replying.
''Nope, I love cute Pokemon. Water Pokemon are just my specialty, since I was raised around them. Staryu, now my beloved Starmie, was my first Pokemon. I now have another Staryu, but only to fill the base-number required to be a gym leader. I've always wanted a Jigglypuff, but my sisters would tell me that was improper for a water gym leader, so I wasn't allowed...''
Luchia smiled softly, knowing that her watery friend was happy to be away from her family. ''You'll be able to catch the Pokemon you want from now on, so don't let your sisters distract you from what you want.''
Misty nodded, as she called out her Jigglypuff, spraying it with a potion. ''That'll help you till we arrive in Cerulean. Jigglypuff.'' The Jigglypuff squeaked out it's name with a happy smile.
''Misty, want me to check your new Pokemon's data with my pokedex?'' She got a nod, which let Luchia know to pull out her dex and scan the newest Pokemon of their group. It took a few seconds, but eventually the pokedex beeped and told them the information required.
Jigglypuff. The Balloon Pokemon. It captivates foes with its huge, round eyes, then lulls them to sleep by singing a soothing melody. This Jigglypuff is female and knows the moves Sing, Pound, Disarming Voice, Disable and Double Slap. It also knows the egg move, Perish Song. Note that the odd coloration on this Pokemon indicates that it's shiny.
The Jigglypuff gave a satisfied ''Jiggly!'' As she bounced into Misty's arms, and curling up there. She defintiely didn't want to move, which caused Misty and the other two girls to smile. Brock walked over, with a slightly annoyed face. ''I thought we were heading to Cerulean City, not chit-chatting.''
''About that, Brock. We're only passing through Cerulean, to Vermillion City.'' said Ash, with a smile as she looked at Misty, who was too preoccupied with her newest Pokemon.
''But what about the Cascade Badge?''
''We've got that sorted out, and we'll do it when we're ready. Right, Misty.'' She got a nervous nod from the water gym leader, as she hugged her normal and fairy dual-type Pokemon. Brock nodded, as the group began to walk again. ''So, just over and then we get to Cerulean City, correct?'' She looked at the mountain that was coming upon them.
''That is right, Ash.'' said Brock, nodding his head affirmatively. ''Misty, if you want to know, in , there's some Moon Stones that would allow your Jigglypuff to evolve into Wigglytuff.''
Misty nodded, looking down at the Balloon Shiny Pokemon in her arms, smiling gently. ''I might, if it's what Jigglypuff wants.'' The Jigglypuff squeaked out 'Puff' before giving a happy nod. ''You want to evolve, Jiggly?''
''Jiggly!'' She yelled happily, bouncing in Misty's arms. She seemed very excited to evolve.
''Evolving sucks...'' Commented Pikachu, from his location on Ash's shoulder. ''Never give me a Thunder Stone, boss. Okay?''
Ash chuckled, before nodding. She gently patted Pikachu's head. ''You don't have to worry about a thing, Pikachu. You don't have to evolve into Raichu, unless you want to.''
The group continued, until they walked into the giant mountain. It was a bit dark, but Pikachu activated his sparks that lit up the caves. Misty looked around closely, for a Moon Stone, uncaring on how small it was. Brock simply watched, as he caught a Zubat, which had attempted to steal his food and Ash's Caterpie had evolved into Metapod and then into Butterfree. Misty, however, wasn't paying much attention as she continued to look. She eventually found what she was looking for in a small crack in the wall. She gave it to Jigglypuff, who started to glow instantly. The Moon Stone vanished, as the Pokemon evolved into Wigglytuff. ''Wigglytuff! Tuff!''
''Wigglytuff, you look so cute!'' cried Misty, squealing as she hugged the Pokemon, who was almost at her height now. ''Come on, back in your poke ball for now, it's safer for you with your low energy.''
''Wiggly.'' Was the sound of the Pokemon made, as she was recalled into her poke ball. Misty smiled, as she pulled the poke ball back to her self. The group smiled as they came to the other side of the mountain caves, onto Route 4. They could see Cerulean City in the distance, which caused a small, sad smile to formulate its way onto Misty's face.
''I'm not prepared...'' She whispered, only allowing Luchia to hear.
Luchia whispered her reply, frowning gently. ''Don't worry; we're only passing through the city, healing our Pokemon and then heading to Vermillion City.'' She hugged the girl gently, as she noted Misty's blush at the hug. ''Besides, we've still got an half-an-hour walk over there anyway, and I want to try fishing.''
''Fishing?'' This got Misty's attention, though her blush remained. ''I've got a pair of fishing rods...so do you want to go fishing alone, we'll leave these two behind.'' She got a happy nod, as they ran away from the other two, who looked at each other confused before shrugging.
The girls walked down to the river; they sat down, smiling at one another. Misty handed her the spare rod, before adding bait to her own. ''Here, just add the bait and threw it into the water. You should be able to find a couple of Pokemon. I'm after a Corsola.'' She threw the bait into the water, smiling as it bobbed in and out of the small waves.
Luchia nodded, briefly watching as Misty called out the pink Pokemon she wanted. The Corsola was instantly caught. She was in aw'h, knowing that it was her turn to catch something. Misty looked at her, before saying that she was gonna head back to the others, to show them her new Pokemon. She did as Misty did and watched the bait, before suddenly it was tugged on. She pulled hard, trying to pull up the Pokemon. The Pokemon on the end of the rod was a Magikarp. Her eyes diluted, at the thought of what a Magikarp evolved into. ''No...'' She whimpered, as suddenly the fish out of water glowed and evolved into the massive blue dragon-like Pokemon. She gulped, shivering, as she looked at the Pokemon. She screamed, but it wasn't loud enough to alert the others. She suddenly gasped as her poke balls cracked open, revealing her two babies. ''No, get away from that thing!'' She yelled, trying to get her poor children away.
''No, mommy.'' They both telepathically said in unison, looking back at her. Luchia was a little shocked that her telepathic link was still in order, but she didn't expect it to last with her trauma there. She was simply forced to watch as her babies protected her. Her Eevee used Swift as Riolu used Blaze Kick. They landed straight on the recently evolved Pokemon, knocking it out as it wasn't very well adapt to battle at the present moment. ''Mommy, catch it.'' cried Eevee, knowing that using a Gyarados may ease her owner's fears.
''No! No!'' Was all Luchia to cry, as she rapidly shock her head. Her Pokemon simply looked at her, pleadingly. She shaked, as she picked up one of her poke balls, oddly a heal ball that she had received from her mom when she was younger. She teared up, trying not to let her fears take control as she through the poke ball, somehow catching the Gyarados. Shaking, she picked the poke ball up and threw it into the water, letting the Pokemon back out. The Gyarados growled, causing her to gasp and almost turn and run. However, what happened next managed to only make her freeze. The Gyarados came and stroked against her cheek, instantly making its telepathic link with her.
''It's okay, I won't hurt you. I can tell that you have a strong fear of my species.'' said the Atrocious Pokemon, in a female voice. ''I cannot do much to help your pain, but I'm not gonna hurt you like that Gyarados from before.''
Luchia could only look at the Gyarados, as she was frozen in fear. She eventually came back from her traumatic state, and look at the giant dragon-like Pokemon. ''A-are you sure a-about that...?'' She stuttered, nervous as she looked at the Pokemon before her. ''...Please tell me y-your not lying...''
''I'm not, Master. Your Riolu and Eevee would properly kill me should I say I'm lying.'' She seemed to point between Luchia, at the murderous looking Riolu and Eevee. One could wonder how two baby Pokemon could make those faces. ''I'll do my best to be a great Pokemon and join you on your journey, and help you overcome these fears of yours...''
Shivering, Luchia slowly nodded. ''O-okay...I'll let you come along with m-me...'' She brought her pokedex out and scanned her new Pokemon, though it took some time due to her hand constantly shaking with her still-constant fears.
Gyarados. The Atrocious Pokemon. In ancient literature, there is a record of a Gyarados that razed a village when violence flared. This Gyarados is female and knows the moves Bite, Thrash, Dragon Rage, Ice Beam, Flamethrower and Thunderbolt.
Luchia shivered a little more, at the dex entry. The Gyarados gently shook her head, knowing that people would always assume that due to the violent tendencies of most Gyarados that all Gyarados were the same. ''Don't worry about that, master. People get some Pokemon wrong; Gyarados are stereotyped as violent, but not all of us are.'' Luchia simply nodded, trying to stay calm. She recalled her new Pokemon as the others came back, just in time to see the Pokemon before it returned to her heal ball.
Misty walked over and gently hugged the girl, who shivered in her embrace before finally relaxing. ''Your willing to have a Pokemon that your terrified of...I hope you know what your doing, Luchia.''
''Eevee told me too...'' She whispered, looking down. ''She told me that it'd be good to get over my fears...then Gyarados formulated her own telepathic bond, telling me that I didn't have to worry about her...''
She breathed in and out, relaxing in Misty's arms. Brock and Ash could only look at one another, very much confused. Ash then looked back at her sister, to see the blushes on both Misty's and Luchia's faces. 'So, that what going on...she's crushing on Misty...that's kinda weird, but I guess they are very close. Yeah, I don't mind it as long as Luchia's happy.' She thought, smiling to herself. Brock looked at the Pokemon Trainer with confusion written on his face.
What happened next came out of nowhere, the egg inside the incubator that Ash was carrying closely began to glow and gave up what looked like psychic ray. Ash gasped as she put the incubator down on the ground and sat next to it, looking at it curiously. She removed it from the incubator and Luchia managed to get a blanket out of her bag that she planned to use for camping out. The egg was rested gently on the top as it continued to glow. ''It's hatching..'' whispered Luchia, as she watched the egg crack.
A long pink tail came through the crack, as the egg finally broke apart to reveal a snake-like Pokemon. It was completely pink, with a white tummy as it looked up at Ash with curiosity. It suddenly squealed, which Ash managed to translate telepathically as. ''Mommy? Are you my mommy?'' The voice was rather feminine, as she looked up at what she assumed as her mother.
All Ash could do was slowly nod as she looked down at the baby Pokemon, trying to figure out what it was. She pulled her pokedex out when she finally gave up on trying to figure out what it was. She gently scanned the infant, before her as she was absolutely confused. What the dex registered as caused her to gasp in absolute shock.
Dratini. The Dragon Pokemon. It is called the ''Mirage Pokemon'' because so few have seen it. Its shed skin has been found. This Dratini is female and knows the moves Wrap, Blizzard, Thunder Bolt and Fire Blast. It also knows the egg moves Dragon Breath, Dragon Pulse and Dragon Rush. Note that the odd coloration on this Pokemon indicates that it is a shiny Pokemon.
''I have a dragon-type Pokemon?...'' Was all Ash could say in her shock. ''And its a shiny?! And knows good moves and egg moves?...It must have a Dragonair or Dragonite mother and a Deino, Zweilous or Hydreigon father...as they're the only Pokemon that give those dragon-type egg moves...'' Everybody gasped at Ash's knowledge, even though she hadn't realized what her new Pokemon was. Ash sighed as she used her new ultra ball to catch the Dratini, it dinged in success as she smiled a little. ''Man, what a day...''
''That's true, boss.'' said Pikachu, with a small grin. ''First Misty catches that shiny Jigglypuff, that's now a Wigglytuff. After that, Brock catches a Zubat. Then your sister has caught a Gyarados, despite her intense fears of the species. And now you have a baby Dratini on your side.''
Ash sighed as they finally arrived in Cerulean City, this was definitely a long day. She so just wanted to fall asleep in the Pokemon Center, not just heal. She requested this, and much to the sadness of Misty, everybody agreed. They knew it had been a long day and they couldn't just continue walking on to Viridian City like this. They got to the Pokemon Center, healed their Pokemon and settled down to sleep in the rooms, Misty and Luchia shared a room as did Brock and Ash. Misty looked at Luchia, who was sighing. ''You alright, Luchia?''
''Yeah...I just never expected to catch a Gyarados...'' She whimpered a little. Misty came over and gently hugged the sitting girl, who relaxed into the hug and let her cheeks become flushed. ''Thanks, Misty. Your always supporting me, even though I must be an annoying girl.''
''Your not an annoying girl, Luchia. Your a smart, kind and beautiful girl, who supports me just as much as I support you.'' She smiled gently, as she loosened her hug before gently sitting down next to her ginger-haired friend. She could see the intense blush on the other girl's face, which only ignited her own. She thought about what she was going to do next, before finally deciding too. ''It might be a bit early, Luchia...but I think I might have fallen in love with you...'' She moved in and just before placing her lips on the surprised girl's face. ''I'm sorry...but I have to...''
The kiss completely shocked Luchia, but the pleasure she received only made her pull the red-head in to deepen the kiss. Wrapping her arms around Misty's neck, she deepened the kiss as much as she could. Eventually, the two girls parted for air and simply locked their eyes on one another. Luchia was the first to speak. ''I love you too, Misty. You don't have to worry about a thing...''
Misty smiled, gently pecking the girl's lips again. ''Yeah and I'll support you wherever you go, Luchia.''
Okay, yeah. I had something else planned, but after seeing how cute Luchia and Misty were together, I guess I had too. Now, I wish you could add a fifth person to the name listings...hmm, Luchia is more of a main character then Ash, so maybe I can...Yeah, I will. Okay, now, Ash will still be with Cynthia and Luchia will still be in love with Sabrina, but also with Misty; making it a threesome.
