Moonlit Campfire
"We were sailing along on moonlight bay. You could hear the voices singing, they seem to say. You have stolen my heart and gone away as we sing our moonlit song on moonlight bay." May sang cheerfully as she walked some fire wood over to the campfire ring that she made. She set the wood up and she turned to Sparclet who released an ember to light the fire. May smiled thankfully and sat by the fire while Drew set up the tent.
The moon was high in the sky and the duo had covered good ground that day. They should be able to reach Plena town in no time if they kept up the good pace.
"Hey Drew, did you ever wonder what it meant when the pokedex said that Sparclet can detect sparks between a female and a male?" May asked as she watched Sparclet curl up close by the fire. Drew came out the tent and sat next to May before shrugging.
"Your guess is as good as mine." He said as he tilted his head back and looked up at the full moon. May did so as well and her little song came back to mind.
"On moonlight bay…" May muttered quietly to herself. Drew gave her a strange look.
"What's up with you and that song?" He asked. May smiled softly.
"My grandmother sang it to me and my brother when we were kids. She says there's a legend that there is a bay that only appears when a full moon is high in the sky like tonight. The legend was based off of a girl going on a boat ride with her most beloved and that was where he stole her heart and left her out in the middle of the bay. She never returned but some people claim to have seen her walking on the mysterious bay singing this song to steal the hearts of unsuspecting boys." May explained dramatically in an attepmt to scare Drew. He sat unfazed by her little story.
"That sounds creepy." Drew deadpanned. May shrugged.
"It's a legend. There's a small chance its true."
"You mean you actually believe it's real? That a bay can appear out of nowhere and a girl who can walk on water and steal hearts?"
"Like I said, it's a legend." May yawned stretching. She smiled lightly and stood to her feet. "I'm heading off to bed."
"Night." Drew said. She nodded while yawning yet again.
"Goodnight."
Once May disappeared into the tent Drew began to doddle on the legend. It sounded really farfetched and her grandmother must have just said it to scare her and her brother. There was no such thing as a girl who stole the hearts of boys by luring them with a song.
"Tch, that's just stupid." Drew muttered as he poked at the fire with a stick.
We were sailing along…
Drew lifted his head and looked around. Was he hearing things?
"Must be in my head…" He muttered to himself as he shook his head.
On moonlight bay…
Drew looked to the tent thinking that it was May singing but it didn't sound like May's voice…it was more eerie and hypnotizing.
You could hear the voices singing…
Drew was getting creeped out now. This was just too strange for his liking. If this was May's doing she would so get a rude awakening.
They seem to say…
Sparclet's ears twitched and it cringed in its sleep. That voice was not as pleasing as May's voice and it seemed off…
You have stolen my heart
Drew stood up and slowly made his way over to the tent where him and May slept. He needed just to get some sleep. There were no voices singing to him.
And gone away…
"Umm…May? This isn't funny" Drew said looking around. The area seemed to have gotten foggy and the moon shone brighter then usual.
As we sing our moonlit song on moonlight bay…
Right then Drew's mind went blank and all he could think about was finding the source of that voice, He began to walk away from the tent and away from the campsite. Sparclet watched in confusion as his trainer began to walk away but something was wrong. Drew was wiped of all emotion which Sparclet sensed. He walked like a lifeless zombie as well.
"Sparc!" The fire mouse stood in front of Drew to obstruct his path but Drew walked around him and continued on still in search for the voice.
Sparclet began to panic and dashed over to the tent. It jumped onto May's sleeping form and began to jump crazily. Keychimp was the first to wake up and May groaned not wanting to even crack open her eyes.
"Sparclet! Sparc! Let! Let!" Sparclet cried feverently while still jumping up and down. May mumbled something before sitting up and rubbing her eyes.
"Sparclet? What's the matter?" She asked as her eyes adjusted a bit. Sparclet pointed outside the tent than scampered out beckoning for her to follow in its pokemon language. May followed to noticed the campsite was empty. "Drew? Drew where are you?" May called. She received no response.
"Sparclet!" The mouse pokemon called running towards the direction the Drew had wandered in. May ran after the pokemon with Keychimp at her heels. May understood that the small pokemon was leading her to Drew and she had a bad feeling of what was going on.
The fog got thicker with every step May took and she was beginning to lose track of Sparclet. She stumbled every now and then but she still kept up the pace. Sparclet stopped at the bank of what seemed like a small lake. May looked around thinking she would have noticed the lake before. Her eyes searched for Drew and she finally found him walking into the water.
"Drew!" She called. He didn't respond, he just kept treading into the water. May looked out into the water to see the silhouette of a girl.
We were sailing along…
"Oh no…DREW!" May yelled running in after him. Keychimp and Sparclet stayed at the bank of the lake watching with worried expressions.
The water slowed May down so when she finally caught up to Drew she was waist deep in the water. She grabbed his shoulder and made him stop by standing in front of him. She searched his eyes but they held no emotion…they where blank.
"Drew, snap out of it! Don't listen to the song!" May ordered placing her hands on his cheeks forcing him to look into her eyes.
On moonlight bay…
The singing seemed to have gotten louder. May turned around to see the girls shadow heading towards them and she began to panic. She grabbed Drew's shoulders and shook him violently.
"Drew come back its me! May!" She said trying to bring him back. His eyes flickered for a moment and May gasped and smiled lightly hoping he was snapping out of the trance.
You could hear the voices singing…
Drew went blank again and the girl was getting closer. May was desperate because this was beyond scary. She really hoped she was dreaming and she'd wake up any second but the world is against her. She shut her eyes tight the singing voice getting closer.
They seem to say…
"Drew…please…come back to me." She whispered wrapping her arms around his neck in a tight hug. She was beginning to cry out of fear and all she wanted to do was get back to camp and fall asleep with Drew safe by her side. "Fight it for me." She added burying her face into his shoulder.
The singing abruptly stopped making May raise her head slowly and look around. The fog had scattered and May and Drew were no longer standing in the middle of a bay but in the middle of their campsite right by the fire. Sparclet was looking around confused as was Keychimp but the one completely confused out of his mind was Drew.
"May?"
May pulled back from her hug and blushed when she saw how close they were. She released him and took a step back putting up her hands in defense for herself.
"Uh…I'm glad you're okay Drew." She said smiling nervously. Drew raised an eyebrow at her.
"Was there ever something wrong?" He asked crossing his arms over his chest. "I thought you were asleep."
"I-I was but then I heard something so I came out to see that you were…" May trailed off trying to find a good excuse. He really wasn't gonna believe he was hypnotized by a singing legend who was going to steal his heart. He didn't even believe her the first time.
"I was…?" Drew pressed waiting for her to finish.
"Passed out! Yea that's it! You were passed out." May said snapping her fingers. Drew gave her a skeptical look.
"Well that does explain how I ended up waking up in a hug." He said smirking. May's face flushed and she turned towards the tent.
"I-I'm going to bed." She muttered scurrying towards the tent.
"Me too…" Drew yawned following her. The two of them got situated for bed and May felt like she could finally relax.
As we sing our moonlit song on moonlight bay…
"May, did you hear that?" Drew asked.
"No!" May snapped and she shut her eyes tight.
Ooh kinda creepy wasn't it?
May: Mondo creepy!
Drew: Way creepy!
Me: I got that song from Hey Arnold.
Drew: Didn't that show get canceled?
Me: No, it still comes on.
May: Pweez Review.
