A/N: Ummmmm; hi?
Do I have to say this? I do not own Pokémon.
Chapter 5: The flame
May POV
My first thought was use a move. So I did.
I made a Shadow Ball and shot it at the needles, and it shot way back, hitting Cacturn and the hooded man. Drew ran in, and I fell to the ground, exhausted.
He ran over, checking if I was ok. A little too loud I said, "That man tried to kill the queen." Drew looked up, and the queen nodded. Brendan ran in, and hugged her. Drew looked confused. "I thought the queen was supposed to be your mom."
Brendan blushed, and the queen raised an eyebrow. "Brendan's mom died three years ago."
Misty POV
"Yes Brock; May did turn into Celebi." Brock still looked shocked. "Really?"
Diane nodded. "Wow, Diana. I can't believe it." I put on a confused face. "Diana?" Diane smiled. "Brock, I go by Diane now." Brock nodded. "Ok, but I still can't believe we are in Iraz forest again." Diane, Ash, Diane's grandma and I all laughed. "What?" I stopped laughing first. "It's called Ilex forest. I-L-E-X forest, not Iraz."
He blushed. "Oh, my bad." We laughed again.
Butch POV
All I cared about was getting Cassidy to the Pokémon center. Nurse Joy would know where the nearest hospital was.
When I got there, she informed me that the closest one was in Solaceon Town. That's too far away. "Nurse Joy, I can't wait that long. Cassidy is…" I swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat. "… almost dead."
She looked truly concerned. "Well, I guess Chansey and I could take another patient. We haven't got many visitors since the gym in this town got torn down. A simple burn medicine is all she needs." I sighed and sweatdropped out of relief. Cass would be ok.
Drew POV
I stared at the queen. "Why is this a big deal? He lied to us. So what?" May's eyes flashed green, and she looked like she was fighting with herself. "No! I will not let you take over!" I cocked my head.
Her eyes turned pink, and she took out her wings. Everyone stared at her in shock, and I facepalmed. So much for undercover. She started to fly towards east. "Flygon, go!" Flygon came out and I jumped on him, digging my knees in his side to fly towards May. We flew for hours, all the while Flygon was getting exhausted. May seemed to have limitless energy.
We neared a place that looked like… Ilex forest! She flew in, and reached the temple. I jumped off Flygon and returned him. May blinked, and her eyes turned normal. "Huh? Where are we?" I explained, and something hit my back. I fell and lay on the ground, dazed.
May snarled at something behind me. I turned, still in a slight daze. It was a Pokémon. "Lucario! Why did you do that?" Lucario raised an eyebrow. "Why do you seem so familiar, but so unfamiliar?" May still held her annoying gaze. "I met you in the future." I put on a shocked face, and May whispered, "Tell you the deets later. Right now, focus and find a man."
I nodded, and saw movement out of the corner of my eye. I saw the figure of a man. I knew his plan. He sent Lucario to distract us, and would sneak attack. "May, look out!" May jumped towards me, landing in my lap and making me turn almost as red as the roses I give her "Pokémon".
She barely missed a man in mostly dark blue clothing tackle her. But she was still in my lap. The man stood up. "I failed you, master." The man shook his head. "Lucario, you did your best." He turned toward us."Who are you?"
May's Pokedex distracted us all. "RING RING RING, RING RING RING, PHONE CALL, PHONE CALL!" She took it out of her bra and answered it. "Max, what do you want? I'm kind of really busy. No, it's about Lucario. No, I'm in the past. Don't call me a liar! I am not lying!"
I laughed at them, and Lucario and the man stood in shock. Oh yeah, they have never seen a Pokedex. May was still in my lap, and I turned as red as my Flygon's breath.
"Max I have to go! Goodbye!" She turned towards my face and shook her head. "Brothers!" I laughed, and Lucario sent a move at us. I recognized it as Aura Sphere. May gasped and used Safeguard. "You know Safeguard?!" She shrugged. "I guess." The man and Lucario looked shocked.
"You can use… Pokémon moves?"(A/N: Lol that rhymed.) May nodded, and still looked cautious. "We have to go now-" The man shook his head. "Oh no you don't, you know about us. So now we have to kill you." I screamed-yeah, real manly of me- and May grabbed my hand. She started chanting again, but this time quicker.
We hit solid ground, but I stayed awake this time. May was passed out, though.
She was still in my lap, and I lifted her up. I stood up and ran towards the edge of the forest. The village-I think it was called Aborville-was there, so I knew we weren't very far in the past or future. But I heard Misty's voice yelling at Ash. We were in our own time.
It was going to be impossible to climb up the steps holding May. I had already tried to wake her, and that wouldn't work. For the first time I realized we were still in our medieval clothes, and I sweatdropped. I had no other choice. "HELP!"
Misty came out onto the porch and started laughing at our clothes. "Why a-are you in t-tights?" She started talking in between giggles. "I'll tell you later. May needs help. She's exhausted; she used two powerful moves." Misty nodded and got everyone outside. I realized I had worried about May so much I didn't realize the sharp pain in my back. The Aura Sphere Lucario shot at me.
I handed May up to Brock, who leaned down to grab her. When I let go, the pain intensified. I fell on my knees, and let out a scream. May woke up, and I was still on the ground. I touched the spot it hit, and brought my hand back.
It was soaked in blood. May saw that and jumped out of Brock's arms. She brought out her wings and she ran and jumped off the porch. She landed next to me. "Drew! That Aura Sphere was strong. You need help."
I looked up at her and said weakly, "Can I change first?" She laughed, and nodded. "I'm not going ANYWHERE in this stupid dress. I'm glad that I took off my heels to save the queen. I mean, Brendan was nice and all, but I HATE dresses."
Misty raised an eyebrow. "Wait, you saved a queen? And who is Brendan?" May shook her head. "Deets later, help Drew now." Misty put on a sly smile, and May glared at her. Misty started laughing, and May turned as red as her dress. That's when I passed out.
May POV
I knew I couldn't carry Drew. But then I remembered my fanny pack; I put it on under my dress. I had my clothes. Oh, and he had Flygon. I didn't know if he had his clothes, so I was going to leave him in those. I ran into the bathroom and changed. Much better, considering how I hate dresses.
I set Drew down on Flygon, and he insisted he would be ok. I smiled sweetly. "Drew, please?" He shook his head. "Maybe this will motivate you." He looked confused until I kissed his cheek softly. Then, he just looked shocked. "Flygon, show the way to the center you took me to." He nodded, and Drew just sat there, holding his cheek like an idiot.
Celebi POV
The afterlife wasn't so bad. May failed getting the 'Eye of the Sea'.
Next I would send her to get the flame of Moltres. I hope she doesn't screw that up. Well, I have to go. Goodbye.
