Season Of Magic: I apologize beforehand for the insanity this chapter holds. I do not know what came over me when I wrote this, but since I had a writer's block I just went with whatever came to mind.
I want to point out that I was vague on purpose. I wanted to leave most of you guessing and in suspense.
Ps: in the play, I removed their names and used the part they were acting. I hope it doesn't get too confusing. I think you'll catch up by the end.
Erm, I think the beginning of this chapter is mostly considered humor and might be really insane….. yeah.
This is the second to last chapter. I assure you the next chapter will be super long and actually make sense because this one? Yeah, it doesn't.
You heard right! Next chapter, this story is coming to an END! I want to thank all of those who have stuck around in this crazy ride!

You're The Reason
by: Season Of Magic
{-}
When a sweet sixteenth party comes to mind, the first words that always pop up are: over the top, extravagant, flashy and elegant.
Dawn's party was no exception and it could be said that it might have been planned a bit overboard.
With the list of guests being so immense, a big venue was needed so no one was left out and Johanna had made sure of it.
The entire lake Valor had been rented. A big tent surrounded each area, every corner indicating something different to do.
The theme was sky and since the party was to occur on nighttime, extreme measures had been taken.
The walls were painted with a light blue glow in the dark paint, soft bright yellow lanterns surrounding the corners and white streamers hanging on the top.
White and blue balloons could be found everywhere, a few yellow thrown in here and there for the whole sky, clouds and sun feel.
The grass and dirt surrounding the lake had been perfect for the theme and that had convinced Johanna even more when Dawn had suggested she wanted the party in the lake.
Ash had joked around, saying that to fit the theme, Dawn should have dressed up in yellow, to symbolize the sun, or a chick.
Dawn had not taken the joke seriously and so had refused to show Ash her attire until she wore it at the party.
And that is where we find ourselves now, five minutes before the curtain rises and most of the poke gang put on show.
"You look fine Dawn." Melody stated as she watched Dawn readjust her laurels for the millionth time. "Stop it!"
"Sorry I just can't help but be nervous."
"And you don't think we are?" Mitari said as leaned closer to the vanity so she could do her makeup better.
"This is pretty uncomfortable." Misty said as she tried to sit down on a chair but couldn't.
Melody laughed. "The cloud suits your mood." She stated as she pointed Misty's way.
Misty glared. "One more word Melody and I swear..." she wiggled in her outfit a bit which caused Melody to be near hysterics, May spit out the drink she had in her mouth and Dawn raised an eyebrow.
"If you think about it, we all look pretty funny." Dawn only said.
"Us two look funny," May said pointing at her and Misty when she had finally calmed down. "You two on the other hand, look fine." she added as she pointed at Dawn and Melody.
"I'm the narrator and Dawn's the star of the show." Melody stated shrugging.
"Couldn't you have picked a different theme though Dawn?" May said as she struggled a bit in her outfit. "This itches a bit."
Now it was Misty's turn to laugh and Dawn had only shrugged.
"Alright you three, break it up. Now's not the time for this." Johanna said as she peeked her head into the tent. "It's almost show time girls."
"Yes ma'am." Misty, Melody, Dawn and May all said together.
Dawn finally stopped readjusting her laurels, Melody's makeup was finally done and Misty and May had stopped complaining.
"Well, let's go!" Dawn said as she stood up.
"You seem energized." Melody said raising an eyebrow.
"Because she's not the one dressed in a silly outfit." May and Misty could only utter out as they almost got stuck in the door.
Melody giggled and turned them sideways then pushed them out. "Let's just give a good show!"
"Misty, you look hilarious sister dear." Violet stated as she Lily and Daisy caught up to the girls. .
Misty was near hysterics when she saw them. "I can say you look pretty funny too."
"We're the sensational sisters!" Lily said as she and the other two twirled around.
"Yes, you belong in a garden alright." May stated as she simply stared.
"Ugh let's just get this done with." Ash said as he and the guys piled in.
"This leaves a weird taste in my mouth." Dent could only say.
"I agree with you one hundred percent." Drew piped in.
"Okay so the flowers, sun, cloud and raindrops are here." Melody said counting off her fingers. "Who are we missing?"
"That'd be us." Jesse and James said as they waved from the sound room. "But we're staying here with Jessica and Max until it's our time to go on."
"Break a leg guys!" Jessica replied as she too waved. "Well, not literally of course!"
"I think that's all and counted for." Mitari said. "Okay, we're good to go."
"Great, let's go then." Melody said as she ushered everyone behind the stage. "Places everyone."
"Hey, May, want to be the sunshine I need to dry up all this gloomy weather around me?" Drew stated from his seat, where he was waiting along with the guys and Misty for their cue later on.
May scoffed. "Not a chance in the world Drew." and she walked near the curtain, where Dawn was.
The curtain slowly rose and Dawn sighed. She blamed her mother for the ridiculous storyline that was going to occur.
"Dawn and her friends have decided to put on a little show for us." Johanna gushed into the microphone.
Claps were heard, and the curtains were now rising even faster.
Good evening ladies and gentleman. Tonight we get to see what it's like in the lives of mother Earth and her friends Melody said as May ran into the stage in her bright orange/yellow sun outfit. The bright blue scenery in back of her, made it seem like the sun was slowly rising over the sky.
It's a beautiful morning, isn't it, sun? May shook her head and wiggled a bit and the crown laughed. But wait, it isn't a beautiful morning for everyone...
And in came Dawn, walking around as if she was worried.
May went over to Dawn and poked her with one of the sunrays. "Mother Earth, what's wrong?"
Yes, Dawn was mother Earth. Her attire consisted of soft green laurels, a golden robe, silver bracelets and shoes.
Mother Earth sighed once again. "I'm sorry Sun; I'm worrying you a bit, aren't I?"
"Yes." Sun stated. I've never seen you like this. Is something the matter?"
"It's the world, Sun." and mother Earth waved her hands to the crowd.
Sun gasped. "The world again?"
"Yes Sun. I don't know what to do." and mother Earth fell to the floor. "I tried to send them a message by making the dinosaur type Pokemon extinct but... The humans are still acting foolish!"
"There, there mother Earth." Sun once again poked her. "They might be foolish creatures but, we have to take care of them or else who will?"
"You're right as always Sun." and mother Earth stood up.
"I know what'll cheer you up, Earth." Sun said.
"At this point, I fear nothing will." Earth said with a saddened look.
Sun shook her head and grinned. Putting her rays together she clapped. "Oh this will. Flowers!"
Daisy, Violet and Lily piled in one after the other, each dressed in her respective flower attire.
"You called, Sun?" They each said as the wiggled around a bit around the area until they reached Sun and mother Earth.
"Yes." and Sun pointed to Earth. "She's not looking too good."
The flowers nodded and circled around Earth. "What's the matter princess?" They said together.
Mother Earth sighed again and Sun piped in for her. "It's the humans."
"It always is." Lily said placing one of her leaves to her petals.
"They're misusing everything!" Violet chimed in.
"Look at my roots," Daisy said as she whirled around and showed her pale green roots. "I've been watered nonstop for over a week now!"
"Sorry Daisy," and Earth raised a hand sadly. "that would be my fault, not the human's."
"Why?" Lily asked.
"Because, since I've been feeling so gloomy all I've sent their way is water, water, nonstop water."
"Think you can help us out a bit then?" Violet couldn't help but ask. "My petals need a tan like urgently."
"I suppose it won't hurt to try Earth." Sun stated. "I feel a bit dark and gloomy myself being stuck up here."
"Oh fine. I'll call for them, hang on." and Earth walked off stage, only to come back a few seconds later with a poke ball. Pressing the middle, she threw it. "Cloud, raindrops, RETURN!"
Nothing happened.
"You're not a human and the weather is not a Pokemon." Sun stated giggling.
Earth shrugged. "It was worth a shot." She pulled out an ocarina and began to play a tune.
Suddenly the place got colder and everyone got shivers.
Misty in her cloud outfit was the first to appear. A gust of wind piled in and the crowd shuddered.
Misty wiggled around a bit and halted to a stop. She whistled and the guys all piled in.
Cheren, Drew, Ash, Dent, and Kenny ran towards Misty.
"Mommy!" They all said as they went her way. They were all dressed in a raindrop outfit.
"You all better be in your best behavior." She stated, pointing at each one of them. "We're here to see mother Earth."
The raindrops nodded and they all walked towards the Sun, mother Earth and the flowers.
"YOU!" Cloud and the Sun both exclaimed together. Sun poked Cloud with her rays and Cloud poked the Sun with her small puffy waves.

Jessica, whom was watching all of this from the sound room, was now rolling on the floor laughing. "This is freaking brilliant!"
James and Jesse chuckled.
"Well, I guess it's a tad bit funny." Jesse said as she leafed through the guide. "James are you ready? It's almost our cue."
James nodded and took off his coat, revealing his Team Rocket attire. "This is the last time I'll ever get to wear this."
"I know. It's a bit depressing really."
Jessica, whom had now calmed down long enough to give Max some directions, stood up and took out her phone. "Okay, pose together. It's picture time!"
James rolled his eyes. "Do we have to?"
Jessica waved her hand and ushered them together. "Smile!"
Jessie shrugged and wrapped her arms around James. "It's just one picture." she whispered his way and James blushed.
Jessica positioned her phone and grinned, snapping away like crazy. "Perfect. Thanks!"
This caused James to blush even more. "What? But I wasn't ready yet!"
Jessica put her phone away. "You snooze, you lose." she said as she pushed them out the room. "Now go and break a leg. Again, not literal of course."

"Sun, Cloud do you two have to get into an argument every time you see each other?" Earth could only state groaning.
"Sorry." They both said together.
"Ah man, and just when it was getting good!" Drew raindrop said, earning him a glare from Sun, a slap from Ash raindrop and a I'm watching you stare from Cloud.
An evil laugh filled the stage.
"Just when it was getting good indeed." James said as he and Jesse walked into the stage.
"Prepare for trouble mother Earth and her little squad."
"And make it double, you're going to regret ever making us mad." James added.
"A rose by any other name isn't as sweet."
"We won't leave here until our job is complete."
"I'm Jesse."
"And I'm James."
"Now bow down in fear under the name of Team Rocket!" They both finished together as they made little pirouettes and weird signals.
"Well, this was anti-climactic." Kenny raindrop could only whisper. "I saw it coming from like a mile away."
"We had a sucky writer." Ash raindrop nodded.
Jessica face palmed herself. "I don't think it's wise to diss the writer like this." She talked into their microphone.
Jesse coughed. "Erm, moving on guys. We're here for mother Earth, yadda yadda blah blah."
"You'll have to go through all of us first!" Cloud, Sun, the raindrops and flowers all surrounded Earth.
"Wait, how'd they get up here anyways?" Drew raindrop asked curiously. "Humans can't be in the atmosphere, they'd die!"
Everyone shrugged and Jesse and James gasped in recognition of the truth.
"Blame the writer." Melody could only say from her little cubicle.
"Team Rocket is blasting off again!" Jesse and James exclaimed as they fell to the floor crying.
"Well, I guess that's it." Sun exclaimed. "We beat them!"
"Lame!" Kenny raindrop could only say.
And that, was our play everyone. We don't really know what happened in the end but we assume they all had a happily ever after.
"And Jesse and James melted!" Mitari asked hopefully as she stepped into the stage. She was dressed in an Arceus costume.
"Who are you?"
"Me? I'm Arceus!" And Mitari handed Earth a jewel. "You dropped this when you went down for a checkup last week."
Earth light up and hugged Arceus. "Oh thank you! I knew I was feeling down for a reason!"
"Yeah, yeah," and Drew raindrop was wiggling around. "Can we leave now?"
"Yeah but first, a little song and dance!"
Hey digimon, hey digimon, monster friends to the boys and girls...
"Oops! Wrong song sorry!" Max's voice was heard.
We all live, in a Pokemon world, pokemon, I wanna be the greatest master of them all... Po-ke-mon!
Everyone nodded and began dancing along. Even Jesse and James.
"We hope you enjoyed the show!" Everyone said together as they held hands and bowed.
