Me: Hi again! It’s only been a week and a bit
since the first part was sent in, but I just couldn’t wait to carry on. ^_^
Misty: She’s forgotten to say not to expect the next updates to be
so quick!!!
Me: Whatever… We break up for 2 weeks holiday soon! Anywayz, lets
get on with the show!!! Oh yeah, sorry if Ash and Misty are out of character!
^_^;
Disclaimer: I won’t bother trying to convince you that I’m Satoshi
Tajiri this time, so no, I don’t own Pokémon. The only things I own in this
story are the characters Bethany, Jo and Mark. This chapter is for Bethany and
Mark- my only mates that are still nuts on Pokémon!! Jo is a little bit like
me.
Misty’s journey Part 1- New
Friends All Around! (1a) **UPDATED**
(A/N This is still in episode style, as looking at it, it would
have to be changed quite significantly, so it’s being kept the same format.
However, bolds and italics are being added)
Narrator: Misty is on the road back to Cerulean City after leaving
Ash and Brock in Blackthorn. She is almost there, but she has to go through the
bug-ridden Viridian Forest first…
*The picture is Viridian Forest*
Misty: Oh no! I have to go through here! Why?
Togepi: Toge-priiii! (Mommy-look out-a bug!)
Misty: Wha- AARRRGGGH! Get away from me!!!!
Pokémon, Pokémon, Pokémon! (Let’s do it!)
I wanna be the very best
That no one ever was (ever was, ever was)
To catch ‘em is my real test,
To train ‘em is my cause,
A whole life is introduced
Time to test my skill
I know I just can’t wait to show the world…
Born to be a winner (Johto!)
Born to be a champion
Born to be a winner
Born to be the very best (Pokémon Johto!)
Born to be a winner-Pokémon!
(Fanfare thing begins)
Misty: New Friends All Around!
Misty: Must get outta here FAST!!!
Misty runs coincidently towards the exit, and appears in Pewter
City.
Misty: Hmmm, I think I should get to the Pokémon centre. It’s
getting pretty late, and I’m tired.
*At the Pokémon centre*
Nurse Joy: Hello Misty. Long time no see! Where’s Ash?
Misty: It’s a long story. Would it be possible to have a room for
1 tonight?
Nurse Joy: (hands Misty keys) here you go. Would you like
something to eat?
Misty: Sure.
Nurse Joy walks off
Misty: ‘I’d better phone Ash to tell him I’m nearly home. I
feel really bad about lying to him yesterday, but he would have a fit if he
found out I want to enter the Johto League.’ (Gets out Pokégear) I hope he’s still awake.
* * * * *
Outside Blackthorn. Ash is sitting by a pond thinking about Misty.
Pokégear
rings.
Ash gets the Pokégear from around his neck.
Ash: God! Interrupt me why don’t you. I was busy thinking. (Answers phone) Hello. Who is this?
Misty: Duh! I’m the only person with your number aren’t I?
Ash: Oh yeah. What ya calling for Mist? Something the matter?
Misty: Nothing’s the matter. I was just phoning to say that I’m in
Pewter City Pokémon Centre.
Ash: You’re in Pewter already? Whoa- you walk fast! Wait- Brock
wants to speak to you.
Misty: Okay. See ya Ash!
Brock: Hi! Are you in Pewter Misty?
Misty: Yeah.
Brock: I hope this isn’t a problem, but tomorrow, could you just
check on my family?
Misty: Sure. I was thinking about going there to warm up my water
Pokémon for the Johto- oops! I wasn’t supposed to say that!!!
Brock: What?
Misty: Nothing.
Brock: No, what did you say? Something about Joht-
Misty: Okay. I’ll tell you the reason I left, okay? Just don’t
tell Ash, whatever you do!!! And make sure he’s out of earshot.
Brock: No problemo. (To Ash) Ash, could you collect some firewood
for cooking? I’ll be with you in a mo.
Ash: Okay. Come on Pikachu.
Pikachu: Pika! (sure!)
Brock: I’m back. So, why’d you leave?
Misty: Okay. You know that when you’re younger, and you dream of
being the best-
Brock: Like Ash did about being a Pokémon Master?
Misty: Yeah. Well, I also wanted to be a Pokémon Master. But, my
sisters put me down so much, it was Lance who rescued that dream, so I fought
for myself, and left home to become the best!
Brock: So that’s how Ash found you.
Misty: Actually, I fished him out of the river. Anyway, when Ash
came, and said he was on a Pokémon journey, I remembered why I left home. And
now, my dream has gotten the better of me.
Brock: So you mean…
Misty: Yep, I’m entering the Johto League- after I’ve trained for
a week in Cerulean Gym, seen Professor Elm about a Pokédex and I’ve collected
all the badges!!!
Brock: Whoa… I always thought you just wanted to be a Water
Pokémon Master.
*Ash comes back with a few twigs, and hears Brock*
Ash: I could only find these… sorry!
Brock: Just a minute! (To Misty) You fail to amaze me! Anyway,
phone us when you’re free, okay?
Ash: Can I talk to Misty again?
Brock: Ash wants to talk to you again.
Misty: Okay. Thanks for hearing me out, Brocko!
Brock: Anytime, Mist! Here ya go Ash!
Ash: Thanks. Hi again!
Misty: You better make it quick! It’s nearly 11:00 and I need
sleep!
Ash: You’re lying! It’s only 6:00!
Misty: Ash, remember the time difference between Kanto and Johto…
Ash: Oh yeah…(rubs his neck) Anyway, I’ve got a question for ya!
Misty: Shoot!
Ash: When are you planning to come back, ‘cause I thought that you
might come back to watch me in the Johto League…
Misty: Aww… ickle Ashy missing me already? Let’s put it this way,
if I do come back, I’ll be doing more than watching ya, right?
Ash: Whaddya mean-
Misty: I’d better go, Togepi looks like he’s about to scream his
head off!!! See ya!
Ash: Okay. Bye. Call again soon!!
CLICK! (The phone goes off)
Ash: What’ve we got for tea?
Brock: What we usually have… FOOD!!!
Ash: Oh yeah… what kind?
Brock: Let’s see… we’ll have mushroom soup, okay?
Ash: Fine by me!
* * * * *
Back with Misty…
Misty: Okay Togepi, we’ll get ya some food… here! (Passes Togepi a
piece of chocolate) We’d better get some sleep if we want to enter the Johto
League in time!
*Next morning in the Pokémon Centre*
Nurse Joy: Okay Misty, I’ll see ya after your fight with Slate.
Misty: Thanks Joy! See ya.
Misty walks to the Pewter Gym, thinking what it’ll be like
fighting Brock’s Dad. She enters the Gym door.
Voice: Who goes there?
Misty: I’m Misty Waterflower of the Cerulean Gym, and I would like
a warm up battle before reinitiating my duties as head leader in Cerulean!
Voice: Of course Misty! I’m Brock’s Dad. I’m Slate, Pewter Gym
Leader. We’ll have a 3 on 3 battle- no time limits!
Misty: Fine with me! Go Togepi (Misty puts Togepi on the floor)
Togepi: Togi? (Why me, Mommy?)
Slate: Bad choice sending an egg into battle! Go, Onix!
Misty: Right Togepi, come on back! Go Poliwhirl!
Poliwhirl: Poli!
Misty: Poliwhirl- use your Water Gun attack!
(Just to cut down typing and you reading this, Poliwhirl beats up
Onix, Togepi uses Metronome on Omastar, and Staryu whips Rhydon’s butt with
Bubblebeam.)
Slate: Well done Misty! That was a good battle
Misty: Well, it’s nice to see I’m not too shabby, as I haven’t
fought for a while!
Slate: I’d like to see what you’re like in a few weeks time, after
being reinstated as Cerulean Gym Leader!
Misty: Thanks! Oh yeah, Brock wants you to get in touch with him.
Here’s the Pokégear number!
Slate: Thanks Misty! I’ll phone him when I close the Gym for my lunch
break.
Misty: Right. See you around!!!
Slate: See ya Misty!!!
* * * * *
Back with Ash…
They’re on the route between New Bark and Blackthorn.
Ash and Brock are sitting on a ledge, eating sandwiches.
Ash: You know, it’s kinda quiet without Misty. I wonder why she
suddenly had an urge to go back to Cerulean ‘cause I’m really starting to miss
her.
Brock: You mean you’re missing her mallet being coincidently
placed on your head every 5 minutes! But yeah- it is quiet without her
around. Don’t you think you should get started on your new training scheme
already? Or at least planning it?
Ash: Yeah, I guess so.
A trainer was walking along the route, and notices the two. She
jumps the ledge and runs to them. She’s tall and has shoulder length messy
ginger hair (a bit like Misty’s) in a ponytail. She’s wearing a light blue Nike
baseball cap, a spearmint color short-sleeved shirt on, light blue denim
cropped trousers, and white trainers.
Jo: Hi! Are any of you Pokémon trainers- Hey- I remember you!
(Pointing to Ash) You lost against Ritchie in the fifth round of the Indigo
League!
Ash: Yeah, I did. How come ya know him?
Jo: He’s my twin brother!!! My name’s Jo, and I’m from Cerulean
City!
Ash: Cerulean?! Well, my name’s Ash Ketchum, and I’m from Pallet
Town!
Jo: Do you want a Pokémon battle?
Ash: Okay. Is 3 on 3 fine with you?
Jo: Sure!
Ash and Jo come up to each other, and shake hands.
Brock: I’ll be the referee for this battle. No time limits. Let
the battle begin!
Ash: Okay- one hit and her Pokémon’ll be down. Go Pikachu!!
Jo: Nice Pikachu, I remember Ritchie mentioning it- but it won’t
stand a chance against my Corsola- go!
Ash: Hey- it must be a tradition in Cerulean- to lose with Water
Pokémon!! Thunderbolt, Pikachu!
Jo: Corsola- use Mirror Coat!
Mirror Coat reflects Pikachu’s attack.
Ash: Huh? If Electricity won’t work yet, use Quick Attack!
Jo: Corsola- get ready…
Pikachu hits Corsola.
Jo: Use Ancient Power!!!
A load of rocks come up and k-o’s Pikachu!
Ash: Pikachu- are you all right?
Brock: Pikachu is unable to battle. Corsola wins this round!
Ash: Pikachu! Speak to me!
Jo: Is Pikachu all right? Pass him here. Maybe I could help.
Ash: How?
Jo: Ash, I just can. Now hand him over, and I’ll give him
something.
Ash: No! How do I know you’re not Team Rocket or something?
Jo: When I was still in Cerulean, I helped out at the Pokémon
Center. I was trained by Nurse Joy to treat Pokémon.
Ash: Here ya go then. (Gives Pikachu to Jo)
Jo checks Pikachu over.
Jo: Ash, go to my bag. In it there’s a first aid bag. Will you bring
it over please?
Ash: Here. What’s wrong?
Jo: Well, Corsola’s Ancient Power knocked Pikachu unconscious. I’m
going to give it a Revive to help it regain consciousness.
Jo takes out a Revive and give it to Pikachu.
Ash: Please wake up…
Pikachu: Pikachu Pika? (What’s happening?)
Ash: You’re all right!!!
Jo: Okay, this arm doesn’t look right. Pikachu, I’m going to press
on your arm, and tell me where it hurts okay?
Pikachu: Pika…CHU!!!
Pikachu shocks Jo.
Jo: I take it that hurt. (Gets up) Ash, we’d better postpone this
battle-
Ash: Why?
Brock: Let Jo finish Ash!
Jo: I think Pikachu’s broken his arm.
Ash: What!
Jo: I’m so sorry… it’s my entire fault! I should have warned you
about Ancient Power’s strength! I can’t apologize enough…
Ash: It’s all right Jo. Apology accepted. Now we’d better get
Pikachu seen to. You can tag along if you like!
Jo: Thanks. Lets go!!!
