Chapter 18! This chapter is viewed from Ash and Misty's point of views! Which means Pokeshipping! The mother of shippings! This early chapter is thanks to my extreme boredom during Christmas break, so now let's begin!
Chapter 18
Misty's POV
May was standing there then in a moment she fell down cold. I tried shaking her awake, but nothing happened she was still out cold. I could feel tears streaming down my face. This was the second time this has happened. The first time wasn't any better than this.
A 5-year old May fainted. A 6-year old Misty ran up to her. Misty started shaking her. She lay there motionless. Misty started crying.
"May?" Misty sobbed.
"Hello, daughter of Poseidon." A husky voice said through May's mouth. May was glowing. Her eyes had an ominous yellow glow. Her body didn't look any better. It was about as pale as a ghost.
"May?" Misty started crying louder.
"No, this is someone you know…close to heart." The voice said back.
"Who are you and what have you done to May?" Misty demanded.
"What a nice little temper you have." The voice said mysteriously.
"Where's May?" Misty started throwing her fists and feet at the voice.
"Stay back! Do you want to hurt your dear little friend?" It said holding off an angry Misty.
"Who are you?" Misty said more sternly.
"In due time. In due time." The voice said disappearing. Soon enough May's body started to get less pale. She opened up her eyes and the sky blue orbs were there once again.
"Misty, what just happened and why does my leg hurt?" May said rubbing a bruise Misty gave her.
"May!" Misty ran up to her and gave her a death hug.
"Misty….can't…make….air!" May said pretending to die and sticking out her tongue in dramatic effect. Misty let go and started giggling. She was glad her friend was back.
I didn't want that to happen again. Drew wasn't doing any better. He looked as pale as May. Dawn and Marina were new to this, but they weren't crying like I was. I've known May since Kindergarten. I was waiting for Leaf to arrive. I heard loud panting noises from behind me.
"I'm….here….where's…May?" She said in between breaths.
"She's on the stretcher." I said pointing towards May. Leaf went to go examine her.
"So what happened?" She said with a worried expression.
"May was arguing with Drew when she just passed out!" Dawn said interrupting us.
"Is that it?" Leaf questioned.
"Yeah." Marina said.
"How do you know she didn't just pass out from exhaustion?" Leaf said simply.
"We all know that May wouldn't pass out from something as dumb as that. You're just trying to convince yourself!" I screamed. 'Whoa, where'd that come from?'
"I'm sorry." Leaf said putting a hand my shoulder.
"This has happened before. May doesn't remember but I do." I said remembering that awful voice that still haunts my dreams.
"Really, what happened?" Dawn said her eyes widening. I gave them a quick summary of that day. Leaf and Marina listened quietly, but Dawn looked like she was going to have nightmares for a month.
"So now I'm just waiting to see what happens, but I really don't want to. That voice said it knows me." I said recapping the pale image of a 5-year old May. May started to mumble something.
"May?" I said frightened.
"I'm back." The voice sounded more mysterious this time.
"Who are you?" I demanded.
"Why don't you find out?" It said ominously.
"Why don't you tell us?" Drew said speaking up.
"Ahh, a son of Dionysus. How are you?" It said.
"How do you know that?" I said yelling at it.
"Ahh, there's that temper I saw the last time we spoke. You'd make a better daughter of Ares than one of Poseidon." The glowing hand stroked my cheek. I slapped it away. Anger was flaring in my eyes.
"Are you a god?" I said angrily.
"Who knows? Maybe I am. Maybe I'm not." I said chuckling slightly.
"How about we play the guessing game?" I said ready to take on the thing possessing my best friend.
"Hmm, what are the rules?" It said stroking May's chin as if it had a beard.
"The rules are if I guess who you are then getting out of my friend!" I said angrily.
"Strict rules, but I'll agree if you only get 1 guess." The voice said teasing me.
"I agree to your terms!" I went up to my friends that weren't possessed by an evil being. Oh, and Drew.
"Who do you think this guy is?" I said pleadingly.
"I think it might be a god." Leaf said worriedly.
"Which god?" Dawn said confused.
"I think it would be a more violent god." Marina said examining the possessed May.
"I vote for Ares." Leaf said nodding.
"Me too!" Dawn said agreeing with Leaf.
"Me three!" Marina said nodding.
"Same here." Drew said breaking the chain.
"Then let's go with that." I trusted Leaf with all of heart, so I was going with her intellect right now.
"Are you Ares, god of war and violence?" I said bravely.
"You are….."
Ash's POV
Misty was with May, so I was stuck in class. The only one keeping me company was Paul. Just great. This has to be the most boring moment in my life. I've always had someone to talk to other than Paul. I guess today was an exception.
Lilly, this abnormal girl with neon pink eyes noticed Misty wasn't with me and tried to talk to me about shoes. I almost flipped. If the teacher didn't notice her blabbing her head off I swear my head would pop. 'Thank god! She finally stopped!' That lone thought brought up another one.
Wait. Why didn't I go with Misty? I slammed my head into my desk. 'Stupid!'
Misty's POV
"You are wrong." He said evilly.
"What!" I screamed.
"Who are you then?" Leaf said angrily.
"I'm Dionysus! God of wine!" He said summoning a vine of grapes into the middle of the room.
"Dad!" Drew looked like he was ready to kill him.
"Wait!" Dawn said. Everyone grew silent.
"My guess is Dionysus." Dawn said finding a loophole in the rules.
"What!" Now it was Dionysus's turn to say that. Smoke started coming out of May's mouth. A male figure formed. He was wearing a peplos with a wreath with grapes in them.
"Out smarting a god! How interesting. 'Til next time." Dionysus said disappearing into his grape vines. I ran to May, but Drew beat me to it. The color in May's face was back to normal, but she wasn't waking.
"Is she alright?" I said nervously.
"Yeah, she's just exhausted." Drew said relieved.
"So that was your dad, huh?" I said.
"Yeah, I guess so." Drew said with anger in his voice.
Ash's POV
When the bell rang I almost screamed 'YES!' out to the world. I ran to the cafeteria hoping Misty would be there. She was. I ran up to her as if nothing else mattered.
"Hey, Mist! Where were you?" I said screaming up to her.
"I was helping May with something." She said distantly.
"With what?" I said interested.
"Nothing important." Misty replied.
"Umm okay?" I said confused. Misty said she didn't feel well, so she left. I didn't want her to go, but if she wasn't well then I don't want her to stay here especially if there's a chance she would puke on me. Sadly Lilly noticed I was alone again.
"Hey, Ash! I'm sorry I had to stop talking to you, but you know how teachers are!
"Mmhm that's nice." I said not paying any attention to her.
"So what were we talking about? Oh, yeah that dance on Friday! So would you like to go with me?" She said hopefully.
"Yeah, that's nice." I said still not paying her any attention.
"Really, that's great! I'll go pick up our outfits today!" She said really excitedly.
"That's great. Wait what!" I said finally realizing something.
"That dance silly!" She said winking.
"What did I say?" I said really confused.
"That you'd go with me or did you not mean that?" Her abnormal neon eyes started watering.
"Uhh, sorry, I'm um not going to that um dance, so bye!" I said bolting off. I heard a really loud sob. I started sprinting. 'What did I get myself into now?'
I ran up to my friends. I immediately noticed Drew wasn't there.
"Where's Drew?" I said curiously.
"I don't know." Jimmy said shrugging.
"Okay." I said sitting down and eating.
"I think he's with May." Gary said smugly.
"Really, why do you think that?" Jimmy asked.
"He practically stalks that girl. Where else would he be?" Gary said leaning into his chair.
"Hey, Gary do you know what happened to May? I heard she passed out during class? Jimmy said curiously.
"I think she's just tired from screaming at Drew all day." Gary said remembering all of those arguments he'd seen.
"That's weird." I said.
"Weirder than you making a girl cry?" Gary replied.
"Heh, you saw that?" I started rubbing the back of my head with the palm of my hand guiltily.
"Who didn't hear that?" Jimmy said.
"Yeah, that was a mistake. I kind of wasn't paying attention to what she was saying then somehow made her cry by not going to the dance with her." I said dumbly.
"Wow! That's just amazing." Gary said clapping slightly.
"Why?" I asked.
"That your attention span is smaller than I thought." Gary replied.
"Hey!" I protested.
"Well, can you blame him? You could've avoided all of this by just paying attention to that girl." Jimmy said.
"Would you all just shut up?" Paul said looking annoyed –as usual- as ever. The rest of lunch was spent annoying Paul to his full extent.
Misty's POV
May still hadn't woken up yet, so I was pretty much pacing around a room with worry probably showing on my face because Leaf, Marina, and Dawn were trying to calm me down.
"Misty, May's going to be alright, okay?" Marina said soothingly.
"Okay." I said trying to convince myself.
"Good, now sit down, Misty." Leaf said slowly and settled me down on the chair. When I calmed down I glanced a look at Drew. For a pretty-boy he wasn't looking so pretty. I almost felt bad for him. Apparently Leaf, Marina, and Dawn were the ones trying to calm us both down.
"Man, I hope she's okay." I said drifting off to sleep.
