Yo friends of fanfiction I'm back with chapter 4 of Betrayal from the heart. I hope you enjoy.
R&R
"Well here we are your new stump." Gary joked as he let Red into the RV.
"Looks like shit..." He bluntly replied looking around seeing all the trash.
"WHAT THE HELL MAN!" He retorted.
"He's not wrong." Paul has now entered the RV and discussion
"We were on the road for like a week OK." Gary tried to defend his living area "And Paul you live here too, help me out!"
"I'm not denying that it's dirty."
"Whatever!" He gave up and sat down on his pull out bed. "So Ash are you surprised by Makoto and May?"
"I guess." He to took a seat on the bed "Why would it matter to me though?"
"HUH? I thought you always had a thing for May?"
Red leaned back "I don't really know." he closed his eyes "Maybe at one point."
"Not anymore?" Paul asked as he sat down in a chair across from the two.
"I'm not sure ever since something happen when I was fifteen."
With a fifteen year old Ash
"So Ash you goin tell her today?" Questioned a 18 year old Brock.
"Yeah..." He replied with a serious face.
Ash has had a crush on May for awhile now, He'd be lying if he said it was love at first sight. At first May was like a student to him, teaching her the ways of pokemon.
But as time went on his outlook on May changed...
Today he decided to act on these new feelings and maybe ask her out.
"Well good luck Ash!" Brock gave him a thumbs up and a smile.
"Thanks man." Ash returned the smile and walked off to where May is.
He watched his best friend walk off "I hope he doesn't get hurt..."
"Hey May!" He called out to the girl staring at the pond she was sitting at.
Ash's voice made her turn around. The fourteen year old girl saw who the voice belonged to and smiled.
"Hey Ash!" She patted a spot next to her and beckoned him over "Sit right here."
He did just that and sat next to May, The two sat in silence for a minute, He opened his mouth many times to say something but just couldn't.
But May spoke up "I'm glad we took a break here." She looked at Ash "It's really pretty."
"Y-Yeah..." He stuttered looking into her eyes, Her wonderful bright sapphire eyes.
There was once again silence between the two.
"Uh May." He Hesitated "I called out to you for a reason."
"Oh Yeah?" She winked jokingly "What's that?"
"Well I wanted to see if you wanted to go on a date with me..." Ash asked but with each word he got more and more silent.
"WHAT?!" May questioned.
"Just forget I said anything!" He ran off.
"Ash!" She called out with her hand out "I didn't even hear what you said..."
Back in the present
"Wow..." Paul trailed off before talking again "Who knew you were capable to be interested in girls."
"Shut up." Red retorted but he cracked a smile.
"Well I'm sorry Ash but if you had my opinion, It seemed like you didn't even let her hear you." Gary stated.
"Yeah..." He stood up "I've realized that in the past few years."
"Wow and he's not as oblivious ether! This is like a brand new Ash!" The purple haired trainer joked.
"Yeah yeah..." Red was not amused "I'm just glad Brock was there for me back then."
"I miss him..."
"So you miss Brock huh?" Gary teased.
"Shit did I say that out loud!?"
"Yup."
"Tch since I know you guess won't get of my back about it. Fine I miss Brock!" He admitted begrudgingly.
"YEA!" They cheered.
"So he still cares for Brock Harrison. That could be useful." Quietly muttered a eavesdropping voice before dashing off.
In The Morning At The Arena
"WELCOME LADY'S AND GENNNNTLEMEN TO THE FIRST ROUND OF THE POKEMON WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!" Yelled the very enthused announcer.
"Hmmmmm oh this is a good spot." The blue haired pokemon coordinator whispered to herself and sat down to watch her friends battle.
"Oh you found a spot!" May called out with a wave and start making her way to Dawn.
"Oh boy..." She mumbled seeing her ran at her "Hey May!" She quickly turn into a smile.
"I'm glad we can watch at least the first match before the coordinating contest started." May said practically glowing from happiness and excitement, Dawn looked away she was so bright.
"THE FIRST MATCH OF THE DAY IS CLEMONT CITRON VS MAX MAPLE!" The announcer once again yelled so loud that some of the audience covered their ears.
"OOOOOOoo! That's an interesting match." She once again glowed. "I wonder who Bonnie's goin cheer for?" She put her finger on her chin.
"Like I care..." Dawn mumble so no one heard her, She looked around and didn't even see the young girl in question "Where is she anyway?" She asked with a smile.
Before May could respond they heard a young feminine call out to the pair "I'M HERE!"
The fifteen girl fell to her knees panting. She had bright Yellow hair like her brother in the back it was tied to make sure it wasn't to long and bright blue eyes, she had a hat on with a yellow band around the middle and a lighting bolt sticking out of it. She wore a sleeveless brown long shirt which made the other girls question her since it was quite cool this time of year. A white long skirt and a yellow purse over her shoulder. She had a modest B cup breast which made Dawn very jealousy since she was the size but older then her.
"Did I miss anything?!" She asked the older girls getting back on her feet.
"Nope! But I believe They're about to start." May responded and just as she said as such the big screen started showing Max come out of the tunnel with a sly smirk.
Then it change sides to show Clemont with a cool and calm face walking through the opposite tunnel.
"So Bon who you goin cheer for?" The oldest girl asked.
"Yeah you going to cheer on your boyfriend?" Teased a new voice.
The three girls turn to see who's the voice was.
They saw Gary, Paul and even Red walk up and sit down next to them.
"B-Boyfriend!?" Bonnie Blushed "Shut up stupid Gary!"
Ever since Max and Bonnie met about two years ago she always thought he was really cool and maybe she had a crush on him. Clemont never liked this fact and dislikes Max because of that fact.
"Psst Gary." Red whispered into the spiky haired boys ear "Whos that little girl?"
"Huh are you joking?" He whispered back.
"Is it someone I should know?"
"Kinda, It's Bonnie."
"That's Bonnie!" Red was dumbfounded by her appearance, She was not the same little girl he knew.
On the field Max and his opponent were getting ready and also giving the crowd a chance to go to the restroom before the battle starts.
"MAX!" Clemont yelled across the battlefield which got the young trainers attention "You leave my sister alone!"
Max scoffed at the mans demanded "Yeah Yeah sure!" He yelled back.
Glasses wearing boy was very confidant in the power him and his pokemon had. He was sure that this battle was his.
Clemont knew he wasn't taking him seriously but he didn't mind because that'll make it all the better when he beats him.
"OOOOOKKKKKKK THE FIRST BATTLE OF THE TOURNMENT WILL BEGAIN AFTER THIS COIN TOSS THAT DECIDES WHO SENTS OUT THEIR FIRST POKEMON!"
After the announcer said his line a referee walked up the field with a coin in hand.
"Alright boys I'm going to throw this coin in the air and one of you need to call it before it hits the ground." The two nodded to the ref in understanding.
He threw it in the air and Max called out "HEADS!"
"It's tails!" The ref yelled "Max Maple sent out for pokemon first."
"Damn..." He cursed under his breath and sent out Snorlax which was actually Mays at one point.
Clemont smirked and sent out Diggersby.
"3! 2! 1! START!" The ref declared.
"DIGGERSBY USE HAMMER ARM!" He called out trying to go for a type advantage.
"SNORLAX USE ICE PUNCH!" Max commanded his pokemon. He to was going for a type advantage.
The two attacks collided both the pokemon not letting up and gritting there teeth.
Back in the stands our heroes watched the match mesmerized before one was pulled out the trance.
Red turned his head to see a familiar jet black haired boy walk by with a girl.
He stood up and followed the duo until they both sat down and watched the match.
It seemed normal to the blind eye but Ash knew both of them all to well.
"Have you heard back from Maya?" Asked the girl.
"No..." replied the man "But it seems we have a guest." The man turned around and looked Red in the eyes.
"Makoto, Jillia..."
"I CAN'T BELIEVE WE'RE MISSING THE MATCH!" Yelled an orange haired girl by the name of Misty.
"You were the one that had the time wrong!" The honey blond girl pointed out as she ran after her.
"Shut up Serena!"
"Now Now there's no reason to fight." The man tried to calm the girls down.
"SHUT UP BROCK!" They yelled at the same time.
He sighed "Sorry..."
The tall man saw something at the corner of his eye, It seemed to be a person but he dismissed it and ran after the girls once again.
The trio made it to the stands and looked around for people they recognized and they spotted them at the other side of the stand.
"Damn they're all the way over there." Misty cursed.
"There's plenty of seats around here." Serena looked around.
"SHUT UP SERENA!"
"I'm getting tried of that already!"
"Girls please stop fighting..." Brock tried to defuse the situation to no avail.
The girl start yelling at each other at the entrance of the stadium.
Serena and Misty are pretty much polar opposites. The latter is very tomboyish liking things "That a man would like." where the former in very girly liking things that a "typical Girl" would like.
Their different personality's would often cause strife between the two.
"You aren't going to listen to me anyway." Brock gave up with a sigh and made his way to a sit to watch his two friends pokemon battle.
Both were at their third pokemon out of six.
"Luxray, VOLT TACKLE!" Clemont commanded.
"Sceptile Dodge and use Razor leaf!"
The green reptilian pokemon dodged with a shout of his name and his Razor leaf hit the side of Luxray.
"YOU ALRIGHT?!" Clemont called out.
Luxray was having trouble standing up the recoil from volt tackle and the hit from Razor leaf hurt him badly "Lux...Ray." it moaned before fainting.
"Damn..." He curse under his breath and withdrew the thunder dog pokemon "You did good. Thank you!"
"This is going quite well." Max boasted winking at the crowd specifically Bonnie.
"Grrrrr! Go! Chesnaught!"
"CHES!"
"Damn is that the same Chespin from before?!" Gary was shock by the big pokemon.
"Brother was training really hard for this tournament." Bonnie replied "He's almost kinda cool."
A small smile creped on Paul's face before he noticed that Red was no longer next to him "Yo Gary." he whispered "Where's Red?"
"Huh?" He looked around and he to noticed that Red was no more "I-I don't know."
"Why hello there Red." Makoto calmly greeted "Can I help you with something?"
"RED!" The girl shouted turning around the see the man himself but she quickly turned back round redder than before.
"Don't bullshit me Makoto!" Red cursed "What are you and Jillia doing here!?"
"Now Now calm down."
"I won't calm down! Why are you here!?"
"As bossy as ever..." Makoto mumbled "We're here for the tournament of course."
"Mako. If I may interject." The girl know as Jillia spoke up.
"Oh go ahead." He gesture for her to take his place "I'm missing the match."
"Red..." She hesitated.
Jillia Kiragi, She was women a year younger then the man in front of her and had long Silver hair that reached the bottom of her back, Red wasn't sure if it was real or not. She wore a simple red shirt with a ninetails on it, she tied it to the side so a little bit of her stomach was showing, She also had plain black shorts on. She wore an outfit that wouldn't really stand out but her orange eyes do stand out amidst her clothes. She had a very petite figure she was shorter than Makoto and very small compared to Red. She had A cup breast but she never cared since her cup size wasn't important to her work.
"I'd recommend you leave."
"I'm not done talking to you!" Red countered.
"No, leave tournament."
"AND WITH THAT FINAL HIT FROM GALLADE, RAICHU GOES DO! MAKING MAX MAPLE THE WINNER!"
The crowd erupted into applauds Clemont fell out to his ass and Max jump up and hugged his winning pokemon.
"Shit..." The older boy swore but got up and made his way to the winner.
"ALRIGHT!" The winner in question celebrated.
"Good match Max." Clemont outstretched his hand.
"Thanks! You were good too." They shook hands in good sportsmanship.
"Well with that we take our leave." Makoto stood up "Come Jillia."
"Behind you."
"Wait Dammit!" Red yelled but before he could give chase the crowd stood up to applaud the winner and he lost sight of the pair.
"THAT WAS AN AMAZING MATCH!" Brock cheered.
"It really was." Misty agreed.
"To bad Clemont didn't win though." Serena sympathized still clapping for the winner.
"Alright Max!" The victors sister cheered.
"He was quite good." Paul praised with a nod of his head.
"RIGHT!"
"You're so enthusiastic May. I didn't know you care about Max that much." Gary teased
"What?!"
Now May and the young pokemon professor were arguing. The pokemon coordinator trying to defend herself.
Bonnie laughed at the two and than saw Dawn looking a little sad.
"What's wrong Dawn?" She asked the girl next to her "You look sad..."
"Huh? I'm not sad!" She answered with smile.
"Good you're back to normal." The younger returned the smile with her own.
"Normal..." Dawn whispered to herself but shook it off and put on a happy face "I bet we can go see them now."
"Yeah lets go see!" May perked up letting Gary out of a head lock.
"Wow dude you got her ass kicked by a girl." Paul teased.
"Shut up, man!"
"Yeah May is freakishly strong." The purple haired man pointed out before following everyone else.
At the pokemon center connected to the arena.
"Hey there they are!"
Max turned around at the sound to see his sister and all his friends "Yo guys."
He walked up to them with Clemont trailing behind.
There was many congrats and to bad share about the room.
"I thought we'd find you all here." Brock and the two girl walked into the center.
"Eh Brock did you see me out there!?"
"Yeah I did, you were great."
Max sheepishly laughed at the praise.
"It was sloppy and unrefined." Said the hooded man as he entered the building "But you won so that's something."
"Hey thanks. Red right?"
"Yeah... See yea." He left as quickly as he came.
"Yo Red wait up!" Gary called out chasing after him.
"What a werido."
"SERENA!" They all yelled
"What? It's true..." She mumbled.
"Yeah, he's something." Paul muttered.
"So emo boy." Misty wrapped her arm around Paul's shoulder "You ready to get your ass beat in about an hour!"
"Nooooo..." He shrugged her arm off "because I'm going to kick yours."
"Yo!" Gary yelled catching up to Red.
The taller man sighed and stopped so he could catch up.
That he did. "So where did you run off to?"
"Just needed to go to the bathroom."
"Oh! I... Thought it'd be cooler than that."
"Sorry to disappoint." He said before turning back round with a swish of his cape.
"Wait!"
"Yes?" He asked not even turning around.
"Are you going to watch Paul and Misty's match?"
"Did I say I wasn't?"
"Well no-"
"Then I'm there." He walked off again this time not stopped by Gary.
The pokemon professor sighed and shook his head then made his way back to his friends.
"And than a Beartic started to claw at our RV luckily this guy beat him and caught all by himself." Brock was telling to Group a story with his arm around Paul.
They were all very enthralled by his story's even if they weren't that grand, It's just the way he tells them that makes em interesting.
"Wow a Beartic!"
"Huh whos there!?" Clemont yelled.
"Whoa sorry didn't mean to scare everyone." It was Makoto and next to him was the girl from before.
"MAKOTO!" May jumped into his arms "Huh? Whos this?"
"Oh this is my friend Jillia Kriagi."
"Where did I hear that name?" Paul asked himself.
The doors open to show a young man "Yo! I'm back."
"Oh Gary! Come here." Brock called him over.
"Sure..." He made his way until he spotted someone "Huh whos girly?"
She walked up to Gary and introduced herself "I'm Jillia Kiragi. Nice to meet you Gary Oak."
"How do you know my name?"
"You're my opponent in the tournament of course I know your name."
"Huh? Oh OHHHHHHH." Gary hit himself on the head "That right!"
"I love your outfit, very cute!" Serena complimented the new girl.
"Thank you, You're cute too."
"Oh stop!" She blushed and swatted the air "But I know." She muttered at the end.
"So Makoto how do you know Jillia?" May asked still holding on to him.
"From work." He quickly answered.
"You meet all your friends at work?" Paul Questioned.
"Hey I have a hard time making friends and works the best place for it." He defended himself.
"That makes since." May nodded her head.
"Yeah I guess we've never had a hard time making friends." Brock added.
"Well it was lovely meeting you all but we need to get going." Jillia interjected looking at her watch.
"Oh you're right!" Makoto agreed wide eyed "See yea around!"
"She seemed nice." Brock said watching them leave.
"And hot!" Gary added with a shout.
"Shut up." Paul elbowed him in the side.
"Ahhhh" He yelp before falling to the floor.
The whole group laughed at the duo.
"From work. Huh?" Jillia Questioned with a head tilt.
"Hey I didn't lie." Makoto countered.
"Is that them?" Red asked himself as he walked by.
But before he could walk up to them the speakers all around the town went off.
"COULD THE CHALLENGERS PAUL SHINJI AND MISTY WILLIAMS MAKE THEIR WAY TO THE ARENA!"
Ash looked at the pair and then at the stadium and back at them and back at the arena.
"I'll see them again..." He whispered making his way to the battle field.
In the big arena Red looked around for a seat but instead saw a spiky haired boy flagging him down.
He begrudgingly made his way over since it seem to be the only seat left.
This battle had a much bigger audience than the last match. Probably for two reasons, ONE people just arrived and missed the first match and TWO Paul and Misty are pretty big names.
Paul made a name for himself as one of the strongest trainers in Sinnoh only rivaled by the champ Cynthia and Misty was a very well known gym leader for her strong water type pokemon and also being a famous swimsuit model.
"I'm glad you made it."
"I told you I wouldn't miss it Gary."
"Yeah I know..."
"IT'S STARTING!" Dawn exclaimed pointing at a big screen that was showing Paul walking through the tunnel.
The group of nine all looked at the field waiting for a heated match to begin.
"THIS TRAINER PROBABLY DOESN'T NEED ANY INTRODUCTION FOR SINNOH NATIVES!" The announcer yelled into his mic "THE BEST TRAINER SINCE OUR LOVELY CHAMPION HERSELF! PAUL SHINJI!"
The crowd exploded with cheers and pretty much incoherent screaming.
"Wow! I didn't know Paul was so popular." Red was dumbfounded by the audiences actions.
"Yeah he's a big deal in Sinnoh." The blue haired girl started with a warm smile "No one so young has ever been able to be pretty much toe to toe with Cynthia, It's amazing..." She trailed off.
"AND HIS OPPONENT IS WATER TYPE BEAUTY, LEADER OF THE CERULEAN CITY GYM IN KANTO! GIVE A WARM SINNOH WELCOME TO MISTY WILLIAMS!"
There were some cheers but a lot of boos too.
"I guess fighting Sinnoh's star child is a bad move." Red said listening to all the boos Misty was getting.
Both combatants were on the field getting ready. Misty was stretching while Paul took deep breaths and looked at the crowd turning his eyes away when they connected to Dawns blue ones.
"You better not go easy on me Paul!"
"HEH! You wish."
"Alright you two." The Ref walked up to the arena with coin in hand "I will flip this coin and who ever loses send their pokemon out first."
They both nodded their head and the Ref threw the coin in the air "CALL IT!"
"TAILS!" Misty yelled.
"IT IS TAILS THE LOVELY LADY WINS!" The ref declared with wink making Misty roll her eyes.
The crowd once again booed at her but she tried to ignore it.
Paul scoffed thinking that it didn't matter who sent out who's first "STAND BY FOR BATTLE!" He yelled his iconic catchphrase which made the crowd swoon. "TORTERRA!" he threw a red and white pokeball and out came his starter pokemon the grass/ground type. The audience was again cheered for Paul's staple pokemon partner.
"Starting off strong I see." Misty murmured seeing the big turtle like pokemon "THAN I'LL START OFF STRONG TOO!" She threw normal pokeball and a mightly Gyarados came out. There was some cheers for the long pokemon but most didn't really care. If he won or not this was Paul's match no matter what.
"THIS MATCH IS ALREADY SHAPING UP TO BE AN INTENSE ONE!" The announcer scream into his mic.
"WOW! They're flipping out the big gun!" Gary exclaimed practically jumping in his seat from excitement.
"Dude calm down." Max bluntly stated with a face that said "I don't know this guy."
"Come on Max this is great!" His sister was to very excited.
He sighed at the two.
You could hear the first move be called out by Paul and it was "STONE EDGE!" He was going for a super effective move right away.
"GYARADOS TRY TO DODGE!"
The water/flying type tried to dodge but the stone edge caught him and dealt a lot of damage.
"OOOOOOO GYARADOS HAS GOT TO BE FEELING THAT!" The announcer declared.
"Damn..." Misty cursed "GET UP AND USE CRUNCH!"
Paul shook his head at her foolishness "Torterra finish this with frenzy plant."
She was getting mad at his words and the crowds boos. She was losing control.
"KEEP GOING!" She commanded.
"WHAT!?" Red exclaimed "There's no way he's going to power through that."
Gary nodded "You're right. What's she thinking?"
"I think she's lost her cool." Serena Added with a frown on her face as she watched her friend slowing lose herself.
"GYARADOS IS UNABLE TO BATTLE!" The ref declared raising his hand up "Misty send out your next pokemon."
She sent out her Politoed and it came out with a flip.
"Paul will you change yours?"
"Nah." He plainly responded which made Misty even more mad.
"POLITOED USE WATER PULSE!"
"POWER THROUGH, USE LEAF STORM!"
"There's no way Politoed is going to take that." May muttered looking down.
One after another Misty's pokemon went down all at the hands of Torterra.
The crowd stopped booing her they just felt bad that she was getting beaten this hard.
"That boy..." a women in a gray trench coat whispered "Is very interesting." She flapped her coat and walk out of the arena with a smile.
"AND THE WINNER IS PAUL!" The Ref raised his hand in the air to signal that the match was over.
It was a bitter sweet win for Paul as he saw Misty fall to her knees in defeat.
"That was just..." May began but couldn't finish.
"Sad." Dawn completed her sentence with a serious demeaner.
Red looked around and noticed the crowd didn't cheer or boo they were all silent until some started to leave which caused the rest of the audience to disperse as well.
Our heroes followed the trend and made their way out of the arena.
"Any word from Misty?" Serena Asked with weary eyes.
"No she won't open the door." May replied looking down.
"DAMMIT!" Paul yelled punching the wall "I hate how this is my fault!"
"Its ok Paul you didn't mean to." Dawn tried to calm him down.
"You all should just leave her alone." Red walked into the motel lobby with Gary right behind him.
"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" Serena yelled "We barely know you. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TELL US HOW TO HELP MY FRIEND!"
Everyone looked at Serena with wide eyes. She was always so calm so this outburst is a surprise.
"Hmph" Red nodded his head "You're Right I have no right. See yea around." He walked out not looking back.
At the end of the day
Red looked up at the RV roof laying down trying to go to sleep.
"What a day..." He Murmured.
"Tomorrow I fight Cynthia." He smirked at that thought "That's going to fun..."
