I don't own Pokemon, but Harold is mine.

Tommy and Kimberly are going to be of use.

But Lil, Figs, 'Poppy', Autumn, and Snippy are going to be a little harder to keep.

Ch.5 Little Secrets

11-28-08

(Harold's POV)

.....Man......Now, where am I?....

I opened my eyes and saw that I was on a medical table. The all too familiar face of Nurse Joy was staring at me.

"Oh good, you're awake," she said, "how are you feeling today?"

"(Like a million bucks ran me over.)"

"Well, let's see how healthy you are," she took out one of those popsicle sticks, "Say ah!"

"Nya ah," I did as she said. It wasn't like I had any choice in the matter.

If I didn't I'm sure that Nanashi would have found a way to make me do it any way. I did everything that the pokemon nurse asked of me without question.

Okay, I might have been a little hesitant about her checking my temperature, but she used a regular thermometer. Pokemon aren't like normal animals. They are able to keep one of those things in their mouths.

When she was done, she decided to give me a poke'block. She offered me a limited amount of choices. I figured that I might as well try one, besides... I'm hungry. I took the red one.

"Nyahhhh!!!!!," I screamed spitting out pieces of the Poke'block, "(Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot!)"

"Oh my," Nurse Joy quickly got me a water bowl. I drank it all in one gulp. I could feel the steam seep out of my ears and mouth.

"How did a Tomato Poke'block get in there?"

I had a pretty good idea,"(Nanashi, you jerk!)"

.

(Autumn's POV)

I took Poppy so long to get back, that mommy got back before he did.

"(Mommy, mommy, guess what!)"

"(What is it Autumn?)"

"(Poppy's taking me and Snippy to see Pewter City again.)"

"(He's what.)," Mommy made a really scary face.

"Cha! (Mommy's scary!)"

"(He knows how I feel about you going to Pewter City.)," Mommy seemed to be getting angrier, "(And what do you mean by 'again'.)"

"(Whoops, that was supposed to be a secrete.)"

"(What else has your father been hiding from me?)," Mommy said, as her electricity charged up. I ran for the safety of outside, but I bumped into Snippy.

"(Hey, Autumn! Great to see you up again!)," the Pichu's expression made me forget for a second about the on coming doom.

"(Autumn, get back in here!)"

"(Run Snippy!)," I pushed him out of the way as a Thunder shock shot out of the burrow and hit Poppy right on. He fainted. I pulled for Snippy to fallow me up the tree.

"(Alright were did she run off to now? I ought a...)," then she noticed Poppy was unconscious, "(Sparks! Sweetie, what happened.)"

"(As if she didn't know.)," Snippy commented. I shushed him.

"(Speak to me! Say something!)"

"(Three time three is... pie.)"

"(Sparks. Oh your alive!)," she smiled, before switching to a frown and started slapping Poppy's face back and forth, "(Good, cause I ought to kill you for taking our daughter to the city!)"

"(Taking who where!)," Poppy recovered.

"(Don't deny it! She told me all about how you promised her to take her to Pewter City.)"

"(You misunderstood Lil!)," Poppy lied, "(I wasn't taking her to the city, I was taking her to see the city. The outside looking in, you know.)"

"(You know how I feel about our daughter going to the city!)"

"(I know, but just looking at it is not going to kill her.)"

"(Neither would being captured!)"

"(No body's going to catch her, not while I'm around. Humans never suspect that there are Richu in the wild .)," Poppy placed his arms around mommy, "(besides she'll have to learn about the world sometime.)"

"(You're parents sure are weird.)," Snippy said.

"(Don't dis it til you try it.)," I said hugging Snippy.

"(Whoa there, Autumn.)," Snippy blushed as he pushed me off, "(are you alright?)"

I nodded.

"(Are you sure? Cause you're not acting like yourself.)"

I was about to ask him what he meant, by that when Mommy finally saw us.

"(Alright, you two can come down now.)," Mommy giggled, "(You can go see the City.)"

As I we were climbing down the tree I could hear Mommy say one one more thing to Poppy.

"(But, if you lose her again.)" Poppy shushed her.

(Kim's POV)

"That's it?"

"Yeah," Tommy said, "I told you it was nothing."

"No kidding."

"but if you don't want to."

"No, no, I'll go with you," I said, "I just thought that it be something, I don't know, more life changing."

"Well, yeah never really know. It just might be."

"I don't think so."

"Now, about what happened last summer..."

"Yeah, yeah," I said before I motioned locking my lips and throwing away the key.

"Never again?"

"Never again."

.

(Harold's POV)

"Looks like you're all healthy," the nurse stated as she watched me eat like I haven't eaten in days. I was pretty sure that it was at least a week.

"Nya," I said in between bites. .....At least something good happened on this stupid adventure of mine......I wonder what's in this stuff......

"Yo, Nurse Joy," a big rough man came in, "is the little guy ready yet?"

"Almost," she answered him motioning to me, "just let him finish eating and then he's all yours."

"(What?)," I said as the big guy started towering over me.

"And he's such a cute little Meowth too," he said scratching me behind the ear, "He ought to get adopted right quick, I'm sure."

"(Wow, this does feels nice...)," I said, "(wait, adopted?)"

"Alright, little guy ready to go?" Before I got the chance to reply, the man just picked me up. I tried swiping at him to let me go, but apparently I didn't know how to use Furry Swipes. The man put me inside of a cat carrier and closed the door before I was able to do anything.

"Thank you again Nurse Joy for giving me a call."

"I'm sure that you'll find a good home for him."

"(Let me out of here!)," I cried out, "(Nanashi what are you going to do to me!)"

.

(Meanwhile back in the real world)

"Man, I love turkey," I said logging on to my 'new' computer, "huh? What's this? Harold's going up for adoption? Alright, who wrote this!"

"(Nanashi what are you going to do to me!)," the computer typed on it's own.

"Well, what do you know," I said, "these stories really do write themselves. Maybe I should... Nay!"

"(Come on, Nanashi! I know you can hear me.)," Harold called again.

"Eh, might as well," I said as I started typing the fallowing....

.

(Harold's POV)

I was mute. Nurse Joy and the big man didn't hear anything that I was trying to scream. I didn't even notice that I had gone mute. I tried screaming louder as the man took me away.

"(What have you two gone deaf or something! Let me out of here! I don't want to be adopted!)," then something hit my head, "(a note from Nanashi.)"

I quickly opened the note and read it as the big man put me in the back of his truck.

Greetings Harold,

Thank you for reading this note right away. Don't worry this note wont blow up when you say the word 'what' like last time. Of course that's mainly because.... how can I put this?.... You're mute.

with Love, Nanashi Chimera

I crumbled up the note again, "Why that lousy, good for nothing," another note hit me on the back of my head. The truck had started moving.

....Might as well read it....

p.s. I had nothing to do with the Tomato Poke'block that was your own bad luck. Heck, I didn't even write this chapter that you're in.

.....Well, how could that happen.... You said that you had complete control over me....

p.p.s. I don't know how that could have happened. Maybe the universe just hates you. And I can have complete control over you. Or do you want me to prove it again? Didn't think so.

p.p.p.s. These notes will self destruct in 5. 4. 3. 2. 1.

.

(big guy's POV)

I was almost to Adoption Center when I heart a loud boom. I quickly stopped the truck and got out to inspect. None of my tires seemed to have popped and my engine seemed to be in working order. I decided to go to the back to check on the baby Meowth that I had just picked up from Nurse Joy.

The little thing was fast asleep. He didn't seem to have noticed the explosion at all. It must have been my imagination. I decided to walk the rest of the way to the Adoption Center, just to be safe. I was real careful as I carried the baby Meowth's cage, with him napping all the way there.

Don't ask me why I keep putting Harold to sleep, I just do.

Me, personally, I blame the turkey.

Hope to update real soon.... though if the story keep writing itself.
