Chapter Eight
As Ash, Dawn, and Cilan are traveling through Route 3. Our heroes have encountered a wild Sandile with sun shades.
Dawn pulls out her Pokédex
Pokédex: Sandile, the Desert Croc Pokémon. A dark membrane protects its eyes from the sun, and it buries itself in the sand with its eyes and nose sticking out.
Ash: Well looks like it's my lucky day, because I'm going to catch it.
Cilan: Now this is something I would like to see.
Dawn: Good luck Ash.
Ash: No need to worry. Go Snivy!
Snivy: Snivy!
Ash: Use Vine Whip at Sandile!
Snivy attacks Sandile but Sandile use Dig to avoid the attack.
Ash: Snivy use your Vine Whip on the ground to feel the vibration of the ground at wait for it to appear.
Snivy nodder her head and waited for Sandile to reappear. Sandile then jumps out of the ground and its about to use Bite on Snivy.
Ash: Snivy quick use Attract at Sandile.
Snivy's Attract landed on Sandile and it became attracted to Snivy.
Ash: Quick! Use Leaf Tornado at Sandile.
Snivy's Leaf Tornado cause major damage to Sandile and Ash threw a Pokéball at Sandile. Sandile was caught inside and it fights to get out of the capsule device. The ball is still moving and then when it stops, the Pokéball click.
Ash: Alright! I got a Sandile. (Said in excitement)
Dawn: Congratz!
Dawn kissed Ash on the cheek and he blush a little.
Cilan: That was an excellent recipe of success Ash.
Ash: Thanks Cilan.
As the trainers are about to leave the area, Cilan check his map that the only fastest way to Nacrene City is to go around the mountain. The young trainers push forward along the mountain trail and it was getting dark, so they decided to camp out near a wide open area on the mountain.
Route 3 Mountain Trail (8:46p.m.)
As nightfall has covered the sky, Ash and Dawn shared a tent together.
Dawn left the tent to watch the stars in the sky.
Meanwhile. Ash is having a dream of a white orb glowing red, as he approaches the orb. It's getting warm, just when he took another step closer. The orb change shape into a white vast dragon.
Ash woke up from the dream and he notices that Dawn is not sleeping in her sleeping bag. Ash left the tent without waking up Pikachu and Piplup.
Ash sees Dawn sitting down, looking at the stars above. Ash goes to her side to join her watching.
Ash: Hey Dawn.
Dawn: Oh hey Ash, couldn't sleep?
Ash: Nah, I think I had a dream of Reshiram.
Dawn: Really?
Ash: Yeah, it took form an orb and it changes into its real form.
Dawn: Wow, well I hope that means something about the whereabouts of Reshiram.
Ash: Yeah I hope so to.
The couple enjoy watching the stars and Dawn rest her on his lap. Ash looks at Dawn and he hopes that he'll be Dawn for a long time.
Ash: You know Dawn, ever since I realize how I feel for you. I'm wondering if we're going to be together, but now we are together and I hope we'll be together forever. Dawn?
Ash sees Dawn is asleep and decided to sleep with her outside under the stars together.
After few hours of sleeping, Dawn wakes up with Ash hold against her. She was a little thirsty and gets up without waking Ash up and went to her tent. She looks through her backpack and grabs her canteen, she opens the lid and to see that it is empty. Dawn goes back outside and she sees a river of fresh water below the mountain trail.
She walks very slowly trying not to fall off the trail. She opens her canteen to refill and when she was done refilling her canteen, when she got up from leaning and starts to lose her balance. She couldn't control her balance and she falls into the river's water and she was being wash away down the stream.
Ash wakes up and notices that Dawn wasn't around him, he check if she was in there tent. No one was in there except for Pikachu and Piplup sleeping. Ash looks around to find her, nothing.
Ash then sees a white blink down the mountain trail, he goes to investigate. When see it was Dawn's canteen, he knows that she fell into the stream again.
Ash: Ohh no not again, I better get Cilan.
Ash quickly goes back up the mountain and wakes up Cilan that Dawn is missing. They decided to go search the forest for her with Pikachu and Piplup.
They all pack up their things and Ash carries Dawn's backpack and her Pokéballs with him.
Ash and Cilan decide to split up for a better chance to look for her, Cilan give Ash a spare Xtransceiver to keep in touch with each other. Ash calls out Pidove to help search for Dawn around the forest.
When Ash and Cilan split up to search for Dawn, Pidove flies down the river's stream for a better chance to find Dawn.
Somewhere down the stream
A young girl with large purple hair and dark skin with a green dragon Pokémon hang on her hair finds a person unconscious near the river. She takes her to safety to treat her small injuries; the young girl with purple hair gets some berries and mixes them for medicine to make Dawn feel better.
Ash's Point of View
Ash: Dawn, DAWN, Dawn!
The young trainer yells out to his girlfriend for a response from her, but nothing.
Ash sighed, and was very tired from the long walk. But he won't give that easy. He continues to look for Dawn with Pikachu and Piplup on his shoulders.
Pidove Point of View
Pidove looks around the river's stream but nothing. She was getting a little tired from flying and decided to take a small break from searching. Pidove heard something in the bushes nearby and a wild Purrloin attacks Pidove from the bush and it uses Scratch, causing Pidove's right wing to hurt a lot. A young girl with purple comes by and scares off the wild Purrloin and it flees the area. The young girl helps Pidove with her injury, Pidove was brought back to the young girl's campsite and find Dawn's sleeping with a wet towel on her forehead.
Pidove tries to tell the young girl about Dawn and it wants to go back to Ash to tell him that Dawn's is here. But the young girl can hardly understand Pidove what it trying to say.
The little green dragon Pokémon "Axew" helps the young girl to try to figure out what is Pidove try to say.
Young Girl: Oh Ok, so this Pidove is looking for this girl who is sleeping and some trainer is looking for her?
Axew: Axew! (Nodding its head up and down)
Young Girl: Alright, Excadrill come on out!
The young girl calls out her Excadrill to find the trainer that is looking for Dawn. Excadrill was sent to find Ash and it dug a hole for faster transportation.
Ash's Point of View
Ash: Man, where could she be? I hope she's okay; I can't stand of losing her.
Ash let out a small tear from his left eye and Pikachu wipes it away.
Pikachu: Pika Pi!
Pikachu is making that his trainer is doing okay. Piplup is worried too.
Pikachu ear's twitched and hears something is coming to their location.
Ash: What's up buddy?
Pikachu: Pika PI!
Pikachu pointed the ground in front of them and a Excadrill pop out of its hole and talks to the two Pokémon about a young girl who was found near a river and an injured Pidove.
Pikachu tells Ash to follow the Excadrill and the three follow the ground Pokémon back to Dawn's location. Ash calls Cilan on the Xtransceiver and tells him that about Dawn's location.
Cilan hurries to regroup with Ash and uses a mini map on his Xtranceiver to find Ash easier.
Ash has arrived to where Dawn and Pidove are at and he meets a girl with purple hair, she introduces herself to Ash.
Young Girl: Hi I'm Iris and I was wondering if you know this girl here?
Ash: Yeah, her name is Dawn. I was looking for her all night, thanks for finding her.
Iris: Your welcome and I also treat your Pidove's injuries too.
Ash: Wow thanks, are you okay Pidove?
Pidove raise her left wing to tell Ash she's okay.
Dawn then suddenly wakes up and Piplup ran up to her to hug her.
Dawn: Piplup! What happen? How did I get here?
Iris: I found you collapse near the river stream and I brought you here to treat you back to full health.
Dawn: Thank you, I'm Dawn and this is my partner Piplup.
Iris: I'm Iris and this is Axew.
Ash: It's great to see you're okay Dawn.
Dawn: Ash! I didn't notice you were here.
Ash: Well me and Cilan were looking for you all night and I got just here.
Dawn: That's so sweet of you Ash.
Cilan then arrived to the scene and he's relief that everyone is okay. Cilan introduce himself to Iris and Ash returns Dawn's backpack and her Pokéballs to her.
As Ash, Dawn, and Cilan are about to leave. Iris asks Ash if she can join him on their journey through Unova while she is heading back to the village of the dragons. Ash accepts her request and they travel through Route 3 together. As the young trainers are traveling to Nacrene City, what more adventures await them as the journey continues.
