Oh My, Mummy!
~Chapter 3~
Ready to fly: Thanks! It might be...I don't know for sure.. XD Wait, what blush? *Blushes* ;)
Chica36: Here's chapter 3!
Well...since several people want me to turn this into a longer fic...(even though this should be the LAST chapter) I'm thinking I might make it into a full one. Like, mostly drabble, with a big plot point every now and then, since I'm going to write this one at my leisure. ^-^ ENJOY~
(Though, once I finish the original ending I was going to post, I'll post it too, just cuz I feel like it. Because this was only going to be 3 chapters...at first.)
Ash picks at the black fabric; his new clothes are now a pair of jeans, a black shirt, and a red hat.
"Do I really have to wear this? My Shendyt was WAY more comfortable."
"Suck it up," I snap. "I refuse to go on a date with someone who is wearing clothing from the store called ANCIENT HISTORY!" I turn around and stalk away. Ash sighs, and follows.
"Why are you in such a bad mood? Earlier you said it was no big deal!"
"It is a big deal!" Ash blinks.
"So this is your-" "DON'T!" "-FIRST DATE!" I punch him in the stomach.
"OW!" I huff and puff while walking away. I cannot BELIEVE this guy! Ash continues to follow me.
"Hey...where are we going first?"
"To the movies!" I bark. Ash mumbles under his breath, and we head down another street.
"How much farther?"
"A block," I say, rolling my eyes.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means we have to walk around a large section of town to get to the theater, okay?" Ash sighs.
"I still don't get it..." We are getting close to the movie theater when a couple guys walk up to us.
"Hey, do you wanna go on a date with us cool guys?" one asks. I deadpan.
"Seriously?" I shake my head. "Losers." I walk past them, but one reaches out and grabs my shoulder.
Without even pausing, I grab him by the scruff of his neck, and flip him over my shoulder so that he lands on a fountain. I smirk.
"See? I told you that you were losers." The two scramble around, and run off, crying. I laugh loudly.
"Stupid morons." Ash stares at me.
"Wow, you're so cool!" I grin.
"I know."
We pass the fountain, and reach the theater.
"Which movie do you wanna see?" I ask.
"Well, I'm not entirely sure what a movie is...but how about the Pikachu one?" Ash says quietly.
"Why Pikachu?" I inquire. He blinks then looks up at me.
"Oh, no reason.." I shrug.
"Okay." Pulling out some poke dollars I head over to the counter.
"Wait!" Ash says. "Since I was the one who asked you out, I should be the one to pay...at least, that's what I read in a book." I roll my eyes.
"It's no big deal, movies are cheap-" He pulls out an ancient looking bag, and drops it on the counter.
"Will this be good enough to pay for the tickets, he asks the woman. She gives him a look.
"We only accept money-" Her eyes bug out as the sack leaks open and pure gold coins scatter. Ash picks out two and hands them to her.
"These are good right?" The woman just opens and closes her mouth like a Magikarp and Ash smiles.
"We'll take the two tickets to Pikachu's First Love," I say. After obtaining our tickets, we walk into the luxurious building. The carpets stretch across the floor in a royal purple, and glass chandeliers hang from the ceiling, lighting up the room to make it look like a castle.
"You said this place wasn't expensive..." Ash says. "It looks nice."
"Well, there are nicer ones than this," I state, as we look up at the sign that shows which theater we are supposed to go too.
"Pikachu's First Love," I say, reading the curved, golden print. "This is our theater! But let's get some food first." I lead Ash towards concessions, and we stand in line behind a young couple holding hands.
"Do you want soda, or ice cream, Leaf?" the boy asks.
"Gary, you should know what I like! Ice cream of course, duh."
I chuckle at their interactions, and after they pay, walk over to the counter.
"I'd like a large popcorn, and two ice cream floats." The cashier nods, and an assistant from the back brings us our order on a blue tray. I pay, and the cashier smiles, tipping his red visor at us.
"Enjoy the movie." I hand Ash his ice cream, and walk inside our theater.
"It's dark, why is it dark in here?" Ash asks.
"Well, then the screen will be brighter," I reply.
"Screen? Doesn't fire light up your stages?"
"Stage?" I make a face in confusion.
"Yeah, for pokemon performances!" We sit down in our seat, and I get Ash to try his ice cream.
"OH MY GOSH!" he yells. I immediately clamp a hand over his mouth.
"SHH!" I whisper. "You can't be loud in here."
"But...b-b-b-but this stuff tastes AMAZING, I've never had it before! What is it made of!?"
"Uhh, Moomoo milk, chocolate, and sugar?" Ash then downs his ice cream in a gulp.
"AGH!" I smack him for being loud.
"Ow!" he says. "My head is FREEZING!"
"Well, that's what happens when you swallow your ice cream in one go." He winces, and holds his head.
"The agony...!" I roll my eyes.
"Here, eat some fresh popcorn, it's still warm." Ash looks over at it, and takes a handful before popping it into his mouth. He swallows and is about to yell again, but stops, leans over to me, and whispers in my ear.
"That was amazing too!" he says excitedly. His face is so close to me that I feel a blush forming on my cheeks. My eyes widen.
NO! Misty, stop this RIGHT NOW! I slap myself several times, and shake my head as Ash munches on the popcorn.
"When is the move supposed to start?"
"Oh, about now..." I state. The screen flashes to life, and the music blares through the speaker.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
~.0.~
"I can't believe you got scared of the movie," I state.
"But everyone was trapped in a SCREEN! Of course it was scary! Plus, that thing you called a title screen was coming right for us!" I sigh.
"Whatever...let's just go to a cafe and get something to eat," I tell him. Both of us head towards the cafe, and when I push open the door, the bell rings.
"Welcome to Cafe Cloyster!" a woman calls from behind the counter. I lead Ash over to the bar in front of her.
"I'd like a caramel latte with extra caramel, and a cinnamon scone." The woman nods. "And for you, young man?" He looks over at me.
"Uhh..."
"He will take iced tea, and a bagel," I tell the woman, saying the only items on the menu Ash shouldn't make too much of a fuss over.
"Alright! Give us a few minutes and we'll have it out!" I nod, and lean back in my seat.
"Oh, I just noticed," Ash says. "Why aren't you wearing your archaeologist uniform?" I raise an eyebrow.
"I'm on a date. I'm going to wear something nice." I glance down at myself. I'm wearing a thin, yellow sweater, a short, jean skirt, and chocolate brown boots. I love boots.
"And?" He shrugs.
"You look pretty." I whirl away from him, my face turning red.
Snap out of it Mist!
I hear Ash sigh, and turn around.
"What is it?" I ask. He rests his head on his palms and frowns.
"Are...there other ruins people are investigating now?" he asks. I tilt my head to the side as our food is set before us on plastic plates.
"Yeah, in other regions. Why?"
"Well..." Ash starts, but hesitates. "Do you think we could go to one of them?" I choke on my latte and stare at him.
"Why on Earth would you want to do that?"
"Well, I was thinking...if I ended up how I was for a thousand years...who's to say I was the only one?"
Hehe! I'll end it there. ^-^
Tell me what you guys thought!
Oh! Btw...I'm going to start updating this story every week if I write a chapter, so make sure you check regularly!
