*Part 12*

"Sharon... um no offense but I'm not sure your plan will work out exactly as you wnat it." Misty said as they walked through the woods. Sharon in front, and Misty behind.

"Misty, have some faith will ya?" Sharon asked.

"It's just, that the Spirit that looks like Ash.... wants me and won't stop until he has me.... They'll both grant their wishes and we'll be back where we started."

"Oh Misty..." Sharon sighed, "Just hold on."

"Misty....." a voice spookily yelled.

"Oh no!" Misty cried out.

"What?" Sharon asked whirling around

"It's him!"

"Oh shoot! I haven't come up with a plan yet! Why couldn't he have come later?" Sharon whispered to no one in particular. "Damn.... We better get out of here."

Misty and Sharon began to run but the voice followed. The voice seemed to be right behind them. Misty suddenly fell on a rock but Sharon who had heard her fall ran back and hauled her along. They soon reached a cliff.

"Oh crap." Sharon whispered

"Where now!?!" Misty cried.

"This way!" Sharon yelled pulling her by the hand in the other direction, "Quickly before-" but Sharon was cut off mid-sentence with a gasp.

Standing there-Floating was the better word for it-was the Sprit of Ash with everything the real Ash was wearing except he wore a dark brown cape... he was shaking a finger at them and was grinning evilly.

"Oh no, ya don't. You're coming with me Misty." he stated.

"Leave her alone!" Sharon yelled fiercely.

"Get out." he replied warningly

"No" Sharon shouted defiantly.

"Fine" he replied coolly.

Suddenly his eyes began to glow and Sharon who started to glow brown was being lifted off her feet. She was thrown into a tree, knocking her out.

This may never start.
I'll tear us apart.
Can I be your memory?
Losing half a year.
Waiting for you here.
I'd be your anything.

"No Sharon!" screamed misty rushing over the unconscious form of her sister. "Sharon please.... You’ve got to help me here! You can't be dead, you just can't be!"

'Oh Sharon why did I drag you and Ash into this? Why? Was I that stupid to not think of anything my self? Or was I that dumb that I was putting my friends in danger and not caring or even noticing....?Oh how I wish none of this had never happened. I wish everything would go back...back to where everything was so much better and not a living hell like now.' Misty thought angry tears forming.

"Misty. There’s no use in fighting so why don't you come quietly?" asked The Sprit of Ash.

"Never!" misty whispered hoarsely as she gazed upon Sharon, "I'd rather die! The only boy that I will ever love is the real Ash Ketchum!"

"You had better take that-" he started threateningly.

"NO! I won't take it back! Cause it's the truth! I will never do what anyone else wants to make me to do! I will not be anyone's puppet!" yelled Misty angrily.

Suddenly The Sprit of Ash grabbed her and punched her, causing misty to sink to the ground clutching her stomach. He started to kick her without mercy. Misty started to scream crying at the horrible pain. And very suddenly another scream was heard. But not of a human but of a Pokemon. The Sprit of Ash stopped long enough to see that a Nidorina was hurling herself towards him. Misty who was very weak with the blows he had given her crawled away as fast as she could leaving the Nidorina a clear shot. The Sprit was thrown to the ground where he lay unconscious. Misty soon saw everything turn black.

*******

"Misty! Misty! Wake up!" shouted someone in her ear.

Misty groaned and opening her eyes sat up weakly. She winced at the pain that still was in her stomach; the spirit may not be real but his kicks sure were. Misty looked around and saw that she was in a cave.

"Sharon, how did we get here?" asked Misty in a whisper.

"Same thing I was gonna ask you. I blacked out remember?" replied Sharon also looking around. "You should know since you didn't black out."

"But I did." Misty answered. "All I saw was-"

"Oh crud!" Sharon suddenly exclaimed.

"What? What's wrong?"

"Remember how those kids were fist kids and all?"

"Yeah." Misty nodded.

"Well, this is that cave they disappeared in!"

"You mean....?"

"Yep. This is where they became spirits."

"We better get out of here then. I dun how we got here or who brought us here but I sure as hell am not gonna thank them in person." Misty replied anxiously "Let's go!"

"Wait Mist, before blacking out I heard a Pokemon screaming. What was it?"

"It was a Nidorina."

"You-wait misty, it could be you know...."

"You're right..."Misty replied thoughtfully.

"I wonder where she is." Sharon wondered aloud as she looked around.

Suddenly there in the entrance of the cave was a Nidorino. Misty and Sharon both gasped. The Nidorino seemed furious for some reason.

"Uh-oh." Sharon whispered.

"Uh-oh is right" replied Misty clutching her arm tight.

The Nidorino took a dangerous step towards them before suddenly a Nidorina came running in stopping him in his path.

"Ni! Nido, Niorina, Nido, Rina!" cried out Nidorina 'No! She's my trainer Nidorino!'

"Nido? Nidorin, Ni, Nido, Nidorino!?" the Nidorino answered his eyes flaring with anger. 'So? She hurt you remember!?'

"Nidor, Niudorina, Nido, Rina!" the Nidorina replied fiercely 'Still, she's my trainer!' "Nido, Nidoin, Ni!" 'She raised me!'

"Nido, Nidor, Ni, Nidorino-" 'Still that's no excuse-'

"Ni, Nido, Ni, Nidor, Nidorin! Nido, Nidorina, Ni, Nidorina!" 'I had no one here! She picked me up and took care of me!'

"Nidor, Nid, Nidorin, Nidorino-" 'That's not the point-'

"Ni, Nidorina, Nidor, Nidorin!" 'I care about her!'

At her words Nidorino stopped arguing and looked at her. He sighed and nodded. Nidorina smiled at his cooperation. She kissed him. She looked over at Misty and Sharon whom where over in a far corner holding each other, eyes wide in fear.

Nidorina came over to them smiling widely. They retreated further into the corner scared to death.

Nidorina stopped where she was sensing their fear. She stood there stumped there for a minute. What should she do? Suddenly she remembered. She could talk telepathically. She closed her eyes and concentrated.

Misty and Sharon were very scared. They didn’t know what the Nidorino and Nidorina had been talking about since they didn't understand Pokemon language. When the Nidorina had come closer to them they had retreated farther into their corner. Find out there was no escape, they had closed their eyes and prepared themselves for what they knew what was coming. But it didn't. Instead they heard a voice, a soothing voice.

"Misty..." it said, "It has been so long...I haven't seen you for such a long time. No need to be scared, I won't hurt you and neither will Nidorino."

Misty and Sharon opened their eyes shocked and amazed. They just simply stared at the Nidorina. Nidorina however smiled.

"Did-Did you just-?" asked Sharon dumbfounded.

"Yes." she replied again through the mind. "This is the only way I can talk to you."

"Oh...." Sharon answered, fear disappearing from her face, "So you're The Sprit of Misty's Pokemon huh?"

"Yes I am. It is very nice to finally see my trainer. I imagined you very different but you are exactly as I remember you..." Nidorina said smiling.

"Um... Nidorina?" asked Misty in a rather small voice her fear hadn't disappeared as quickly as Sharon's had. "I'm not your trainer..."

"Nonsense. You are my trainer."

"No... I look almost like your trainer but not exactly. Look at my eyes," Misty replied, "They are different than from what you remember are they not? Mine are Cerulean blue-green, your trainer's were dark blue."

"No... Yours are the same..." she replied frowning "Yes they-..." her eyes suddenly went wide. "They... they-"

"I am another Misty. Your trainer granted my wish to disappear but when she saw my best friend, Ash she wanted him because he looked exactly like the boy she used to like. So she switched me with her and I've been this way-in her form-for the past three years now, and now I need your help to get me back to my normal self." Misty explained hurriedly. "I must change soon because if the other Ash, finds me he will-He had already found me and had tried to-to-" Misty couldn't go on, the memory still burned deeply in her mind. Tears of fear started to grow in her eyes but she put angrily fought them. Sharon upon seeing Misty's uneasiness at the mention of what had happened to her, put her arm around Misty and then continued for her,

"He tried to abuse my sister."

Nidorino who had come closer to hear the conversation at hand looked furious at what Sharon said. Nidorina also looked furious but she was angry at The Sprit of Misty not at The Spirit of Ash.

"She granted her own wish..." Nidorina said shaking with fury, "My trainer is not supposed to do that."

"How can she not?" questioned Sharon angrily, "According to the legend, she can. She is stronger by the mind. While the other one is stronger at hurting people physically and mentally plus is stronger physically."

"No, it's not the matter that she's not capable of it." replied Nidorina still shaking with fury, "No, it's because she's not supposed to. She is not allowed to unless the two-Ash and her- are together. Which is exactly why they were put in different parts of the forest. Every time the other got near each other, they forgot what they were doing and were just driven away. They couldn't even contact each other which I see hurt them both..."

"It did? But why?" asked Sharon curiously.

"Because they loved each other... Despite the fights and rivalry, they cared about each other. Those fights prevented them from being together but also the rivalry and hate between their families..." replied Nidorina sadly.

"Yeah, I heard rumors about that when I was a kid but I never really got near enough to find out if they were true or not" remarked Sharon quietly.

"Nidorina, I was just wondering...um...Why did they become sprits?" Misty ventured softly.

Nidorino and Nidorina both stiffened at this question. Misty not wanting to offend them replied quickly,

"Sorry. Don't answer if you don't want to..."

"It's all right. We've talked about it to our friends. We wished for our own owners to disappear in this very cave, in that very corner..." said Nidorina her voice barely over a whisper.

"Needless to say, it came true..." murmured Nidorino sadly speaking for the first time.

"We wish they weren't like this." answered Sharon "Right Mist?"

"Yeah." replied Misty.

"That may just work." said Nidorina suddenly in a loud voice.

"What may work?" asked Sharon.

Nidorina's eyes lit up as the idea formed into a plan in her mind. Maybe things wouldn't turn out to be so bad.......
