So that last chapter actually was supposed to come out today, the day I'm posting this one, to have a few days of space between chapters, but I got too excited (Hehe?) and posted it just for you. Your welcome. But here's the next chapter so... Read on!

Iris watched as the pokeball fell, and like a movie scene, it seemed like time slowed down for few a minute. But a few minutes was all it took.

"Dragonite! Down!" Iris yelled, and leapt off, aiming for the ball.

"Iris!" Ash screamed, clinging to Dragonite, but she couldn't hear him over the rushing wind the roared in her ear. Axew was clutching her hair, screaming all the while. But all she could think about was getting that ball. She almost lost Ash himself, so she couldn't lose something as small as this. She angled her body, flying down faster than she's ever traveled, and stretched her fingers out, the ball just within her grasp. The case of the ball slipped through her outstretched fingers, when suddenly she found herself flying by it. A panicked feeling set in her, and she spun around, flailing her arms, searching blindly, when she finally wrapped her fingers around the slippery ball.

"Got it!" Iris yelled, looking around, when she froze, her heart pounding. Ash or Dragonite was nowhere to be found. "Ash? Ash! ASH!" She screamed, whipping her head around, and looked down at the ground. The buildings were coming faster, and she whirled ideas in her head, thinking of ways out. 500 feet, 400 feet, 300 foot, 200 feet-

"Iris!" she snapped her head toward the sound, and saw Ash riding Dragonite, his hand outstretched.

"Grab on!" He yelled through the wind, and Iris stretched out her hand. The streets zoomed in with too much speed. 100 feet...

"Gotcha!" He yelled, and grabbed her arm with both hands. Iris risked a glance down, to view in shock as her shoes brushed the top of cars, and saw onlookers watch with amazement, as Dragonite pulled her higher, and Ash, along with Pikachu, lifted her up.

"Oh boy... Ahhhh..." Iris moaned, lying flat on Dragonite's back.

"That...was way too close." Ash panted, and Dragonite landed, letting them slide onto the ground.

"Oh wow... I have never been so glad to feel the ground" Iris said, lying face down on the ground. Ash moaned with relief too, as he sank into the soft, grassy park Dragonite had picked. Iris clutched the Pokeball tightly in her hand, and Ash looked at it curiously

"What's that?" he asked, slightly confused.

"Oh, this is the Pokeball you sent me, remember?" She said with a grin. "Still hasn't opened. How could you forget?"

"Hahaha... Well, I do have a lot to worry about. Like catching you from the sky." he joked, and Iris scowled.

"Gah, you're such a kid!"

"Pikachu, wait up!" Ash yelled as he ran towards the market. Iris shook her head and sighed, picking up her own pace. Soon they found themselves lost in the crowd of shopper, casually looking through the merchants goods that were on display. Their Pokemon were bouncing around, picking up things with amazement on their faces.

"No Axew, I won't need that scarf. Pikachu, you're so adorable in that hat, but we need to keep moving. WHERE'S ASH?" Iris yelled, looking around, and debated whether or not to let Dragonite out of his Pokeball again, even though she just put him away, when she heard him.

"Iris! Over here!" he said, waving his arms frantically at a stall. She sighed again and ran over, to see the stall was full of Pokepuffs. Lots and lots of them.

"Dragonite! Look! Pokepuffs! Go ahead and pick a bunch!" Iris said, releasing the big dragon, who roared in approval before grabbing handful.

"Hahaha... I'm glad your happy!" Iris said happily, watching as the other Pokemon grabbed Pokepuffs when another voice spoke up behind her.

"Iris?" Iris, spun around and gaped in shock.

"Misty?"

*flashback*

"Hi, what's your name? Mines Misty."

"Hi... I'm Iris."

"What's wrong Iris?" Misty asked with a concerned face. "Camp is supposed to be fun!"

"Yeah, well it's not fun when your best friend takes your other friend all for herself." Iris muttered, and Misty's eyes lit up in recognition.

"Oh, your best friend is that Serena girl? But she's so nice!"

"She stole my guy! I was hanging out with him, and now ever since they met, she's been stealing him from me!" Iris said, tears pooling up in her eyes.

"Well, I'll be your friend!" Misty said, giving the small girl a big hug. "And if either one of them hurts you, I'll run them over with my new bike!" she said with fire I her eyes, but Iris just laughed.

"Thanks Misty... "

*flashback ends*

"What are you doing here in Unova?" Iris asked, after giving the fiery haired girl a fierce hug.

"Well, actually, I came here to talk to you." she said, and Iris gave her a quizzical look, when Ash showed up.

"Ash!" Misty said with a smile, then glowered playfully at him. "You still owe me for the bike I was going to run you over with." Misty grinned at Iris, and she burst out laughing.

"What... That was Pikachu's fault!" Ash said, pointing at Pikachu, who looked puzzled, when Misty pulled Iris aside, waving Ash off when he came close.

"So, I actually have something to tell you, and it concerns Serena." Misty said quietly, suddenly serious.

"What is it?" she asked, and Misty's leaned in.

"Serena... Serena wants to marry Ash." she whispered, and suddenly Iris felt like her whole world,was tumbling apart.
