Chapter Forty Six
Route 3 (5:48 p.m.)
Dawn now has won her first contest ribbon and her next contest will be taking place at Cerulean City.
Brock: Hmmm we should be arriving to Mt. Moon just a few minutes away and we can set up camp for tonight.
Ash: I haven't been here for a while.
Brock: Yeah Mt. Moon is the place where I caught Zubat.
Ash: I don't even remember you catching a Zubat.
Brock: It was when a swarm of Zubats were flying by us and I caught it when you, Misty and that one guy weren't looking.
Dawn: I heard that every night on a full moon that there is some kind of Clefairy dance around the mountain.
Ash: The first time I came through here me and Brock saw a group of Clefairy's dancing around this huge rock from space with Moon Stones around it.
Brock: And tonight is the full moon here.
Dawn: We should set up came near that peak over there.
Ash: Looks like a nice spot, let's go.
Ash and Dawn ran up ahead and Brock is about to warn them about the path that they are on.
Brock: WAIT! Be careful where you are going, one wrong step you might fall down the cliff.
Ash then hears Brock and stops where he's at and part of the ground near the edge of the path crumbles beneath him and falls off the Cliffside.
Dawn: ASH!
Ash: AHHHHHHHHHH!
Dawn reaches for Ash's hand but she didn't make it on time to grab him.
Ash is rolling down the mountain and when Ash spotted a branch; he grabs on it but it snaps from the small tree and continues to fall but he safely landed on top of a tree. Ash is badly hurt from the fall and he grabs his first aid kit from his backpack to cover the scratches and cuts he had gotten during the fall. Meanwhile back on the mountain trail.
Dawn: No no no no no, it can't be. My Ashy fell. I hope he's still alive.
Brock: Dawn you need to calm down, let's go back down the path and find him and if he's is alive which I know he is. He is most likely to have Staraptor to find us.
Pikachu: Pika Pika!
Dawn: What is it Pikachu?
Pikachu: Pika!
Dawn: Oh no Ash's Pokéballs!
Brock: This ain't good, let's hurry and find him before night comes.
Dawn: Okay.
Dawn and Brock are now searching for Ash through the lower parts of Mt. Moon. Meanwhile Ash is looking a way to find the way back up to reunite with Dawn and Brock but no luck so far.
While Dawn and Brock are searching through a small forest; no signs of Ash anywhere. Then a blue flash from a distant came from the nearby river. A girl with red hair caught a Jigglypuff.
Dawn: Hey it's Zoey!
Zoey: Dawn? Is that you?
Dawn: It sure is Zoey and it's been a very long time since I last saw you back at the Sinnoh Grand Festival.
Zoey: It sure has. Where is Ash by the way since Pikachu is here with you two?
Brock: Sadly he fell of the mountain trail and we hope to find him around here.
Dawn: I am so worry about him. I don't know what am I supposed to do.
Zoey: Seems you have a crush on Ash.
Dawn: Actually me and Ash are a couple for almost a year already.
Zoey: Really? Congrats then, I'm really proud of you two. You know when you first said that you are going to support Ash at the Sinnoh League. I have a strong feeling you were into Ash, I could see it in your eye.
Dawn: Well I did have a crush on him back at Alamos Town.
Brock: We better get going to find him.
Dawn and Zoey: Right!
The three with Pikachu and Piplup continued their search for Ash through the woods while the dark skies already covered the sky and Ash is freezing himself from the cold.
Ash: Its so…so c..c…cold out here! I could just go to sleep now and have Dawn find me here if she does find me here.
Ash then about to close his eyes but going to sleep when he's cold might lead him to die from the cold.
A warm voice came through to Ash's mind and says.
The Voice: Don't go to sleep Ash. Sleeping when you are cold will make you die.
Ash: Who.. who said that?
Ash felt the heat from his back pack and the Light Stone is now glowing in orange.
Ash: Reshiram!
The Light Stone then turns into Reshiram.
Ash: I can feel the heat!
Reshiram: I am now fully awakened from my month long slumber while the Light Stone was dormant for some time. Ash hop onto my back and I find you your friends for you.
Ash: Thanks Reshiram.
Ash hops onto Reshiram's back and the vast white dragon flew off with its tail radiating heat inside.
Brock then spots the flaming tail at the sky and said.
Brock: Hey look what is that?
Dawn look at the flaming tail and she recognizes what it was.
Dawn: It's Ash!
Zoey: That's Ash?
Reshiram then flies closer to the ground and Dawn sees Ash sleeping on Reshiram's back.
Dawn: Thank you Reshiram, thank you for saving Ash for us.
Reshiram: It is my duty to protect and serve my… friends!
Dawn: You're not just a friend, you are family to us you know.
Reshiram: Family!
Dawn nodded her head and Reshiram is very thankful for hearing just wonderful words and the dragon flew off to the sky.
Dawn: We'll see you again.
Piplup: Pip Plup Plup!
Pikachu: Pika Pika!
Zoey: Was that a legendary Pokémon?
Dawn: Yeah, Reshiram is one of the two dragons that create Unova a long time ago.
Brock: I have some warm soup for Ash when he wakes up.
Zoey: So Dawn where you heading?
Dawn: To Cerulean City to compete for the next contest.
Zoey: So you're competing here too?
Dawn: Yeah and you?
Zoey: Same here and I'll see you at the Cerulean City Pokémon Contest.
Dawn: I'll see you there too.
Zoey waves off to Dawn and Brock as she goes east to Cerulean City.
Brock: Let's set up camp here.
Dawn: Okay.
Pikachu: Pika Pikachu!
Brock: You want to help me with the cooking?
Pikachu: Pika!
Brock: Alright be my guest.
Pikachu help out Brock with the soup by using Iron Tail to cut the vegetables while Brock is steering the soup. Dawn and Piplup are setting up the two tents to sleep in, one for Brock and the other for both Ash and Dawn to share with Pikachu and Piplup.
After Brock was finished with the homemade soup. Dawn ate some with Piplup and Pikachu while Brock checks on Ash's temperature which is fine.
Dawn: How is he?
Brock: He'll be fine.
After Dawn finished eating she sat against the tree with Ash head resting on Dawn's lap.
Dawn: Ash you had me worried there and I thought that I would lose you for good but you are okay and it's all thanks to Reshiram for saving you.
The night has passed and now its morning; Ash wakes up and find himself being greeted by Dawn.
Dawn: Good morning my sweetie, how did you slept?
Ash: I slept well and where are we?
Dawn: At Route Four, near Mt. Moon.
Ash: Where is Reshiram at?
Dawn: Reshiram is flying high in the sky; watching us.
Pikachu: PIKA PI!
Ash: Hey Pikachu!
Pikachu: CHAAAAAAA!
Ash: I missed you too buddy.
Dawn: You had us worried for the entire night Ash.
Ash: I'm sorry I guess I broke our promise.
Dawn: There's no need to apologies; I thought I lost you forever but I'm glad you're still alive.
Ash sat up straight and hugs Dawn to make her feel better.
Ash: There is no need to worry Dawn. Now let's get on the road to Cerulean City for your next contest.
Dawn: Not so fast; you might want to give it a rest for a while and eat some of Brock's homemade soup that he made. Here I'll warm it up.
Dawn used her Quilava to heat up the soup a little warmer and she pour some of it in a bowl and handed to Ash with a spoon and napkin.
Ash: Thanks Dawn; I love you a lot.
Dawn: I love you a lot too sweetie.
Brock: Well it's good to see you feeling fine Ash.
Ash: Hey Brock.
Brock: How do you feel?
Ash: A little soar on my legs. But I'll be fine after a quick rest once I'm done eating.
Brock: Great and I'll be back with some medication for you to feel a lot better.
Ash: Okay and thanks.
Brock: No problem.
Dawn: Actually I know what to do Brock. Come on out Sylveon!
Dawn calls out her Sylveon.
Dawn: Okay Sylveon I need you to use Moonlight on Ash.
Sylveon used Moonlight and Ash now feels more energetic.
Ash: Wow thanks Dawn.
Dawn: Thanks Sylveon.
Ash: Thanks Sylveon.
Sylveon: Eyyaaaah!
Ash: Okay since I feel a lot better; we should hit the road to Cerulean City.
Dawn: Are you sure?
Ash: Yeah.
Brock: Well let's get packing.
Ash: Right.
After everyone finished packing; they hit the road to Route Four and they all see Cerulean City down the hill road.
Brock: Where there is Cerulean City.
Dawn: Where is the contest going to take place at?
Brock: Let's see!
Brock looking through his PokéGear.
Brock: It's taking place in the Cerulean Gym.
Dawn: Misty is the gym leader there right?
Ash: Yeah!
Brock: Well we better not delay any sooner.
