I don't own any of the characters in this story.
Ash slowly opened his eyes, while being welcomed with a blast of sunlight in his face. Ash looked at his surroundings and saw that he was still a giant from the day before. Ash sighed, hoping that his second wish would come soon.
"Pi. Pi. Pi." Pikachu snored. It was still lying on Ash's chest, where underneath Pikachu laid the blanket Misty had given him. Ash watched his little, yellow friend sleep, and then he looked at his other two friends, who were also sleeping.
Brock was snoring loudly, while Misty was cuddled next to Togepi in her sleeping bag. Ash continued to watch her, until he got a strange feeling in the pit of his stomach. Ash slowly grabbed his stomach, hoping it would stop once he touched it, but it didn't. It's weird. Ash thought. The only time this happens is when I'm anywhere around Misty. Why is that? Suddenly, the strange feeling went away and was replaced with a new one. This time something did happen, when Ash touched his stomach.
Ash saw his world getting bigger right before his eyes. He was starting to get smaller and smaller. Then the blanket that used to be on his chest had completely surrounded him like a letter in an envelope. That's when he felt something big and strong land on him. It felt like he was being laid on by a Snorlax!
Well, it wasn't a Snorlax, like Ash thought it was. It was his very own Pikachu, sleeping soundly on the blue blanket. Its legs and arms spread out on the blanket, as it continued to snore. Unknown to the sleeping Pokémon, it was sleeping on top of its master and best friend. Ash continued to struggle from under the blanket as he tried to get free from under the big monstrosity, but he couldn't get out. Then Ash face planted on the dirty ground, tired and completely exhausted.
Meanwhile, Misty slowly opened her green eyes, as she sat up and yawned. Misty stretched out her back, as she stood up. "Good morning, Togepi." Misty said, looking down at the little egg Pokémon that was still in her sleeping bag.
"Togepriiii!" It squealed, after hearing Misty's voice. Misty giggled in delight, as she picked it up. Misty turned around and saw Brock still snoring away.
Then she turned to where Ash was sleeping, and found nothing but Pikachu and the blanket. Misty gasped and ran toward Pikachu. "Pikachu!" Misty yelled, startling the Pokémon awake. "Where's Ash?"
Pikachu rubbed its eyes, sleepily, and looked around, not seeing its big trainer anywhere. "Pika!" Pikachu gasped. "Pika pi? Pika pi?"
"Ash? Ash? If you're there, please say something!" Misty yelled, cupping her mouth with one hand. Suddenly, Misty and Pikachu heard a groan from underneath Pikachu. Pikachu slowly stood up and walked away from the blanket.
Misty looked at the blanket, nervously, as she saw something from underneath, moving. If it's a bug Pokémon… Misty thought, as she grabbed a corner of the blanket. Then quickly, she removed the blanket from its original place, and looked. Misty and Pikachu gasped at what they saw.
There laying face first on the ground was Pikachu's lost Pokémon trainer, Ash Ketchum, now about two inches tall. "Ash?" Misty asked, kneeling toward the boy.
Pikachu, slowly, walked up to Ash, with worried eyes. "Pika pi?" Pikachu asked, as it licked Ash's head. Ash groaned in response, and slowly looked up, seeing three big faces staring down at him. Ash screamed, and jumped away from them. "Pika pi?" Pikachu questioned again, startled.
"How did you guys get so big?" Ash asked, shaking between every word.
Misty looked at him, and said, "Ash, you shrunk." Causing Ash to scream again and almost faint. But Pikachu caught him with its tail before he could fall. Misty started to think, and then remembered the wish, and looked sad. "Whoops."
Ash looked up at Misty while holding his head, and asked, "What do you mean, 'Whoops'?" Ash gave her a stern look, as Misty sputtered.
"This might be my fault. You see, I wished for you to be shrunk down to size. So I guess the genie literally made it come true. So ta da!" Misty said, sheepishly, as she started playing with her fingers.
Even when he was the size of a blade of grass, he still scared Misty and Pikachu. "You mean, you're the reason why I'm like this?" Ash yelled, scaring Togepi and almost making it cry.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." Misty said, rocking Togepi back and forth. "It's not my fault the genie takes things so seriously!"
Ash sighed and face palmed. "Great. Now I'm going to be stuck like this for 24 hours!"
"Pika pi." Pikachu said, sadly looking at Ash. Suddenly, the four friends heard a loud yawn and looked over at Brock's sleeping bag.
"Good morning, everybody. Misty? What are you doing?" Brock asked, as he stood up from his sleeping bag.
Misty looked at him, concerned. "It's about Ash. Something happened."
Brock looked worried, and walked over to them, his feet right in front of Ash. Brock looked down at Misty, and asked, "Well? Where is he? I don't see him."
"Hey! Brock! Down here!" Ash called up to his friend. But Brock didn't hear a word. The only ones who did here was Misty, Togepi, and Pikachu.
Brock grew frustrated, and asked Misty again, "Misty? Where is Ash?"
Misty was about to say something, when Brock raised his foot above Ash, just about to walk again. Misty and Pikachu gasped as Ash screamed in terror. "Pika pi!" Pikachu yelled. "Pika…chu!" Then without warning, Brock was electrocuted by Pikachu, and fell backward.
Brock sat up, as Misty and Pikachu crawled toward him. "Brock, are you okay?" Misty asked.
Brock rubbed his head full of hair, and turned to Pikachu. "Why did you do that?"
Pikachu ran to Ash, and picked him up by the collar of his t-shirt with its mouth. Then it walked back to Brock and jumped in his lap. Brock looked down as Pikachu put its face very close to Brock's. Brock sweat dropped, as Pikachu said, "Pika pi." Though it was very muffled since it had a bit of clothing in its mouth. Brock narrowed his eyes as he looked closer at what Pikachu had in its mouth.
Ash looked up at Brock. Ash waved and smiled, sweat dropping in the process. "Hi." Ash said, sheepishly. Then Brock realized who it was and let out a scream that just about blew up Ash's ears.
"How did you get that small?" Brock asked, while pointing at Ash's tiny body.
Ash crossed his arms, and glared at Misty. "Ask Misty." Brock looked at Misty, who had turned away and started whistling like it was no big deal.
"Misty?" Brock asked, causing Misty's attention to travel to Brock. Then she sighed, and quickly told him everything in his ear. Brock's mouth formed into an 'O', as he started to understand.
"Yeah! I'm stuck like this for 24 hours!" Ash screamed, while flailing his arms.
"I told you I was sorry! So drop it!" Misty screamed at Ash, who was still in Pikachu's mouth. Then thinking that it was an order, Pikachu dropped Ash from its mouth and onto the rough ground, causing Ash to grunt in pain. Misty gasped, as she set down Togepi beside her, and replaced it with Ash in her hand. "I didn't mean it that way, Pikachu." Misty said, sweat dropping, which caused Pikachu to sweat drop as well.
Suddenly, Ash's stomach let out a small grumble that only Pikachu, with the best ears, could hear. "Pika pi?" Pikachu asked, turning to Ash.
Ash sweat dropped and said, "I'm starting to get hungry."
"Isn't that a surprise?" Brock said, sweat dropping and standing up. "I'll have breakfast made in a few minutes." Then he walked to his backpack to get supplies and then to the campfire.
Misty was about to stand up when Ash started flailing his arms again. "What is it?" Misty asked, calmly.
"I want to explore. See what it's like to be this size." Ash said, smiling, as he jumped out of Misty's hand and onto Pikachu's back. "And also, I'd like to ride on Pikachu's back. If that's okay with you, buddy."
"Pikachu!" Pikachu said, happily. It was the least it could do for its friend, since all through Ash's journey Pikachu had always ridden on Ash's shoulder. So, what the heck, let's do it the other way around. Then Pikachu started galloping into the forest, with Ash riding on its back. Misty smiled as she watched them go away. Then she picked up Togepi and walked back to the campfire with Brock, while Ash and Pikachu set out on a journey for exploration.
Ash started waving one arm around, while holding onto Pikachu with the other. Then he started chanting out, "Yee ha! Giddy up! Ride'em cowboy!" Pikachu smiled at its friend's playfulness, and then it stopped in the center of the forest. Ash got off of Pikachu and started walking alongside it as they continued to search the forest.
Pokémon of many kind emerged from trees and bushes, as they started to look for food. Many Pokémon including: Rattata, Pidgey, Caterpie, Beedrill, Bellsprout, and Sentret. Ash awed in amazement as the many Pokémon walked past him. They were huge in his eyes. "This is amazing, Pikachu!" He said, as he looked at his partner.
"Pikachu." Pikachu said, nodding and smiling. Then Ash and Pikachu continued to walk deeper into the depths of the forest.
Meanwhile, after their last blast off by the 50 ft tall Pokémon trainer, Jesse, James, and Meowth were hanging, limply, from a tree. "Uh. Why can't anything go right when it comes to stealing Pokémon? Especially when it's that twerp's Pikachu?" Jesse asked, clenching her fists.
"Maybe we're bad luck?" Meowth suggested, shyly, making all three of them sigh in grief.
Then Jesse perked up and looked up at her two partners in crime. "Well today is a new day! We are going to catch that Pikachu if it's the last thing we do!" Jesse cried, fist pumping in the air.
James and Meowth fist pumped as well, exclaiming with glee, "Yeah!"
Suddenly, James looked down and saw a Pikachu strolling along side, what looked like to be a miniature sized person. James rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things, but when he looked again, the doll sized person was still there. James gasped and pointed. "Hey. Look at that guy."
Jesse and Meowth looked at where James was pointing and sure enough there was the doll sized person with a Pikachu. Meowth narrowed its eyes and saw Ash's face. Meowth gasped, and said, "Hey guys! It's the twerp! You know the one that blasted us off!"
Jesse and James looked again at the person, and recognized Ash as well. "Weird. Last time we saw him, he was towering above us. Why is he like that?" James asked.
Jesse looked toward James and Meowth, and glared at them. "Who cares? Let's just get that Pikachu!" Saying that, Jesse jumped out of the tree, with James and Meowth following.
"Hey! I've got a better idea!" Meowth said, grabbing Jesse and James's attention. "Instead of stealing the Pikachu, why don't we steal the twerp?"
Both Jesse and James had question marks hovering above their heads in confusion. Meowth face palmed, and said, "Think about it. You can get another Pikachu. But can you get another real live human the size of a toy? I don't think so."
Jesse squealed with delight. "What a wonderful idea! And once we give him to the boss, we'll be rich! Rich!" This also made Meowth and James squeal. "So let's go!" Jesse said, as she ran toward Ash, with James and Meowth, who had a glass jar, behind her.
Ash turned his head as he heard rustling from the bushes. "What was that?" He asked. Pikachu sniffed the air, and realized the scent, as it protectively stood in front of Ash, with sparks flying out of its cheeks. "What's wrong, Pikachu? Who's there?"
"Prepare for trouble." A voice said.
"Make it double." Another said, but a different voice cut them off.
"Will you two shut it and grab the twerp before it's too late?" The voice screamed.
Ash recognized those voices anywhere. "Team Rocket!" He yelled, as the somewhat evil trio revealed themselves.
Jesse laughed, and said, "Wow. We thought you were short before, but never this short!" James and Meowth laughed as well.
Ash growled as he looked toward Pikachu. "Pikachu. It's battle time! Pikachu, use -."
"Uh. Uh. Uh." Jesse said, waving her index finger in his face. Then she grabbed out a Poké ball. "Go Arbok!" Arbok appeared out of the red and white sphere, as it said out its name. "Use Poison Sting on Pikachu!" Arbok did as it was told and hit Pikachu hard with Poison Sting, causing it to be pushed into a tree.
"Pikachu! No!" Ash yelled at its injured Pokémon. Suddenly, Ash looked up and saw Meowth towering over him like a building. Ash gasped as he was grabbed by the Pokémon and shoved into the glass jar, with the lid closing it afterwards. Luckily there were small air holes in the lid.
Ash started pounding on the glass with his fists. "Pikachu! Help!" Pikachu opened its eyes and saw Ash in the little, glass jar, being carried away by Meowth.
"Pika pi!" Pikachu shouted, as Team Rocket ran away from Pikachu and toward their, now fixed, Meowth hot air balloon. Pikachu ran toward the balloon and jumped as high it could go, as the balloon was lifted off the ground and into the sky. But the mouse Pokémon missed the basket and fell to the ground with a thud.
Ash looked down with little tears forming in the corners of his eyes. "Pikachu!" He yelled, as he watched Pikachu fall. Jesse, James, and Meowth laughed with evil, as their balloon floated off into the distance, and soon out of sight.
Pikachu, slowly looked up, and saw the balloon floating away. Then with a determined expression on its face, Pikachu ran back to camp to tell the others.
Mmm. Not as long of a chapter, but oh well. Hope this okay, and please review! ^^
