Chapter 5 - Jealous
One day after finding the rare massage oil with Prima, our heroes arrived on Five Island. However, they already seemed to be in an awkward situation. A brown-haired girl from Shamouti Island was sunbathing on the beach near the Pokemon Center and recognised Ash and Misty from the moment they saved the world eight years ago and was happy they finally got together as she predicted. However, when she planted her lips on Ash's cheek, she caused Misty to unleash her outrage on her.
"Hey, I thought you were happy for us, he's taken!" Misty snapped. "Stay away from my man! Or was that another 'traditional welcome kiss', even though we're talking for five minutes now?"
"It's just a kiss on the cheek, friends do that! Are you jealous?" Melody teased. "And hey, he's hot! Out of all people, you should understand!"
"That doesn't give you the right to kiss my boyfriend! How would he like it if I'd let Danny kiss me, even though I don't even like that creep?" Misty screamed, while her face got red.
"Wanna fight about it?" Melody suggested, while throwing a Poke Ball. A blue Grass type appeared, while Misty chose a crocodile-like Pokemon to fight Jumpluff.
"Croconaw, let's start with your Icy Wind!" Misty commanded, while a freezing breeze caused Jumpluff a great deal of pain.
"Jumpluff, glad you're okay! Now let's show him your Stun Spore!" Melody's Pokemon moved her cotton puffs around, causing some sort of yellow powder to appear, rendering Croconaw unable to move.
"Yes, that's it!" Melody cheered, while ordering her Pokemon to use her strongest move. After waiting for energy from the sunlight, a strong beam was shot at the helpless crocodile, who instantly collapsed.
"Croconaw, can you go on?" Misty asked, while she looked at her greatly damaged Pokemon. The Water type tried getting up, but its efforts were futile. "That Solarbeam was simply too much..." the former Cerulean City Gym Leader thought.
"Give it up, Misty! I won this one!" Melody said. "And I'm sure Ash is impressed by my battling, and not by that Croconaw!" The brown-haired girl from Shamouti Island wasn't the only one laughing, as her Pokemon laughed at the helpless opponent.
"Stop trying to seduce my boyfriend, you b*tch! You were constantly pushing me to get with him, and now you're trying to impress him... F*ck you!" Misty snapped. Then, her Pokemon started growing. As the crocodile was shrouded in white light, his body doubled in size. Then, it let out a battle cry while giving Jumpluff a death stare. "Feraligatr!"
"Amazing! My Croconaw evolved into a beautiful, adorable Feraligatr!" Misty cheered, while Ash looked up some information on the newly evolved Pokemon in his Pokedex. "Feraligatr, the evolved form of Croconaw. When it bites with its massive and powerful jaws, it shakes its head and savagely tears its victim up."
"Oh, you think that evolution will save you?" Melody asked. "My Jumpluff is way stronger than your Feraligatr, we can do this!"
"Oh no, you don't!" Misty teased. "Feraligatr, let's show her your Ice Punch!"
"Gatr!" the crocodile screamed, as Jumpluff was struck by an icy right fist, severely weakening the Grass type. "I'll give my all for Misty, she's so nice to me! I'm not letting that nasty troll get away with this behaviour!" Feraligatr thought. "And after evolving, I just can't lose! Not right now! Not against Melody!"
"Jumpluff, no!" Misty screamed. However, the Pokemon got up, despite being almost done for. "Jumpluff, finish it with your Tackle!" the trainer said.
However, as her Pokemon flew at Feraligatr for the attack, Misty knew what to do. "Feraligatr, finish it with your Hydro Pump!" A strong blast of water was spit at Jumpluff, who was smacked against the wall and collapsed.
"Yes!" Misty screamed. "You did it, Feraligatr! You're so awesome!" she shouted, while wrapping her arms around her newly evolved Pokemon.
"Don't feel bad, Jumpluff. You did a great job!" Melody said to her Pokemon, as she returned her to her Poke Ball. Then, she looked at Misty. "You just got lucky that Pokemon evolved during our battle! Otherwise, you would've lost!" the girl from Shamouti Island sneered, just before she walked away to the Pokemon Center.
A few hours later, our heroes rested up and were ready to look for the next treasure, which would be hidden in a backyard at Resort Gorgeous. However, there was no boat going there, even though the resort was located on a small island near Five Island. Because of that, trainers had to ride their own Pokemon to get to the beach, the resort and the nearby cave called Lost Cave.
And so, Misty released her Feraligatr into the water, so she and her boyfriend could ride on his back. "Feraligatr is a really fast swimmer, at this rate we'll reach the resort in no time!" Misty said, while Ash seemed to be impressed by his girlfriend's newly evolved Pokemon.
The redhead from Cerulean City was proven to be right. Only ten minutes later, our heroes reached a beach, where they could see a big mansion in the distance.
"Shall we just relax at the beach here for a while?" Misty asked, while Feraligatr got some rest in his Poke Ball.
"Sure!" Ash said, while changing into his swimming trunks. Since there seemed to be no one else on the beach, Misty also changed into her bikini while being carefree. After all, no one would see her, right?
However, they were wrong. A brown-haired young man was staring at Misty's curves all along. Then, he walked up to the couple, together with his little sister.
"Hi Misty, long time no see! You still look just as hot as eight years ago on Trovita Island!" the young man said. "Wow, that ass... Those boobs..." he thought.
"Misty! Please come live with us on Trovita Island! I'm sure Rudy will treat you right!" the young girl tried.
"Um... Hi, Rudy and Mahri," Misty muttered, while Ash's face started to go red from anger. Then, she tried to explain to Mahri why she couldn't accept her offer. "You and Rudy are really nice, but he wanted to marry me. And I'm just not into him that way. And besides, I have a boyfriend, Ash."
"I knew this would happen..." Rudy moaned. "Eight years ago, I was hoping to seduce Misty, but she constantly showed interest in him, and not into me..."
"Stay away from her, she's mine!" Ash screamed. From all the Gym Leaders he met on his travels, he hated Rudy the most. Back then, he was never able to figure out why the Trovita Island Gym Leader's behaviour towards Misty bothered him so much, but he finally understood now.
"Well, you never know! Maybe she'd like to move to my big mansion on Trovita Island and get together with someone more romantic than you!" Rudy suggested.
"You're not more romantic than me!" Ash snapped, knowing that what he was saying wasn't true. "And she's not interested in you, just accept it and stop trying!"
"Ash, I hate to say it, but Rudy's right," Misty teased. "You're the most unromantic person on the planet!"
"Does that mean you'll come with me? We'll get married tonight, I already planned a honeymoon!" Rudy asked.
"No! Get away from me, you creep!" Misty screamed, while hiding behind her boyfriend. "I didn't like you eight years ago, and I never will!"
The heartbroken young man knew he had to release his anger somehow. "Ash, I challenge you to a Pokemon battle!" Rudy screamed. "One on one!"
"You're on! But you don't stand a chance!" Ash teased, while giving Bulbasaur his first battle in years.
"Bulbasaur? I can beat that," Rudy thought, while a light yellow Fire Pokemon emerged from his Poke Ball.
"F*ck, why was I so stupid that I chose my Pokemon first?" Ash thought. "But I'm sure Bulbasaur can beat that Ninetales! I won all my battles on this journey so far, I can win!" he said, while Ninetales walked up to the Grass type. However, the trainer from Pallet Town wasn't paying attention to the battle.
"Ninetales, finish this battle with your Fire Blast!" Rudy commanded, as his Pokemon burned the opponent with a strong shot of flames. And so, Bulbasaur didn't have the energy to continue battling anymore.
Ash knew he lost because of his overconfidence. "If I would've just payed attention instead of bragging all the time..." he thought, while Bulbasaur was returned to his Poke Ball. Meanwhile, Rudy and Mahri ran at the strong Fire Pokemon for a tight group hug.
Then, Rudy walked up to Misty. "Hey, if you want a boyfriend who isn't cocky or overconfident... Here's my phone number. You can always call me!"
However, Misty ripped the piece of paper apart. "No! I don't need your phone number! I don't want to date you!" she snapped. "Why don't you just get it? You've been trying all the time back then and today, and I'm just not interested! No means no!" Meanwhile, Ash felt that strange sensation again, the feeling he felt back in the hot springs. After all, it always turned him on when Misty was angry.
While Mahri started crying, Rudy tried to comfort his little sister. "We'll just go to the other side of this beach, so Ash can't bother us anymore! Bye Ash, bye Misty! And hey, Misty, call me tonight if you're up for some fun in bed!"
"I really hope we never see that dick again..." Ash said. Every time he met the Gym Leader from Trovita Island, or even just heard his name, his anger knew no limits.
"Me too..." Misty said. "Why can't he just accept that I'm not into him?"
Then, our heroes walked onwards, to see if the treasure was indeed located near the big mansion. At least, the chances of meeting Rudy there weren't big.
In the garden, someone painted a big, red cross on the grass, indicating the location of the treasure chest. And just like in Berry Forest, Misty let Politoed out of his Poke Ball to dig up the chest.
Five minutes later, the frog got out of the hole he dug in the ground, handing over a small box to Ash. After getting petted on the head by his trainer, Misty returned him to his Poke Ball.
Just at the moment our hero from Pallet Town was about to open the box, an angry lady with blonde hair, a blue summer dress and a blue hat came running out of the mansion. "That treasure is MINE! You were digging in MY backyard, anything found there is MINE!"
"Wait, have you been spying on us all the time?" Misty asked.
"Yes! And anything found on MY property belongs to ME, Baroness Selphy!"
"Then there's only one thing we can do..." Misty said, while sending her Feraligatr out of his Poke Ball.
"Battle for it?" Ash and Selphy asked simultaneously.
"No, RUN!" Misty screamed, while she and her boyfriend jumped on Feraligatr's back. Then, the couple quickly left the small island and went back to the harbour on Five Island. Luckily for them, Selphy didn't have any Water Pokemon, so she was unable to follow the couple from Kanto.
Fifteen minutes later, our heroes sat down at the beach where they saw Melody earlier that day. There, Ash finally opened the treasure chest, hoping to find something rare. However, he held up a purple bottle with a white liquid. "Super Lube? What the fuck is that?" he asked, not knowing what the bottle was holding. "Maybe it's some mysterious liquid Professor Oak needs to research? I often see Tracey carrying bottles of 'Super Lube' when he's about to visit Cerulean City, but never really figured out what it was..."
"No Ash, that's lubrication, the stuff Daisy constantly puts everywhere around the Gym and takes to her room when Tracey visits!" Misty explained. "I don't know exactly what it is, but it's some kind of sexual thing!"
"Oh well, I guess it's up to Professor Oak and Tracey to find out!" Ash suggested.
"Yeah", Misty said, hoping for something else. "I hope we can use it after finding the next treasure... I've been fantasizing about Ash for eight f*cking years, and it's about time that a certain fantasy becomes reality!"
A few hours later, our heroes were asleep in a comfy two-person bed, on the ferry to Six Island.
