Okay, cool !
Chapter 2
The sun shined bright in Dawn's face, she tried to ignore it but the stupid sun shined even brighter. Dawn opened her eyes and found out that Ash was no where in sight.
"He must be getting some food." Dawn thought and decided to go and look for him, but then she felt something nuzzle her back. She turned around and found out that it was none other than the Turtle Leaf Pokemon, Torterra.
"What's up Torterra ? What are you doing here ? Did Ash send you to watch me while he went to go find food ?" Dawn questioned. Torterra smiled and nodded.
"That's so sweet of Ash, he really does care about me" This thought made her blush. Torterra noticed this action and was wondering why her face was red, but decided to let her be. With this thought, Torterra laid down to take a nap. Dawn sat down next to the tree Ash and she slept and started to think of the events before her and Pikachu were captured by Team Rocket and how Ash saved them both.She was thinking about how she almost asked Ash to be her date for the festival in Fantastic City.
"If only Team Rocket hadn't tried to capture Pikachu again, Ash would've probably would've said yes to being my date for the festival, but they had to go and ruin it ! Those three are such a pain !" Dawn began to get angry, but then remembered that Brock didn't know where they were or if we were okay.
"I hope Brock is okay, his probably really worried about us" Before Dawn can think any further, she heard her name being called.
"Dawn, I see that your finally awake. I bet you're hungry, so Pikachu and I brought use some food." Ash and Pikachu walked over to Dawn carrying berries that they found in the forest.
"Hey Ash, what's up? Are your shoulders okay?" Dawn got up and walked over to Ash so she could help carry the berries.
"Yeah, they feel a lot better after a good night's rest." Ash placed the berries on the blanket they had last night and went over to Torterra.
"Thanks for watching Dawn for me Torterra" Ash petted Torterra which brought a smile to the pokemon's face. Then Ash got out Torterra's pokeball and with a red beam of light Torterra was back in his ball.
"Hey Ash, what are the berries called anyway?" asked a curious Dawn.
"I don't know what there called, but you should try one, there very sweet" Ash replied
Dawn nodded and took a piece of the berry and put in her mouth. The berry brought a smile to her face,it was very sweet and tasted great.
"You're right Ash, they are sweet and the're good too."
"I thought you like `em." Ash picked up one and started to eat one himself.
"Pikachu !" said the little mouse pokemon, enjoying the sweet taste of the berry he was eating.
After everyone was down eating their berries, they packed up and decided to look for a nearby town.
"Hey Ash, do you think Brock is okay?" Dawn asked.
"Don't worry about Brock, he'll be okay. I just know it." said Ash, smiling at Dawn.
Dawn turned pink and looked away from Ash. "Yeah, you're probably right." Dawn said. The group continued their journey to find a nearby town.

Meanwhile in Fantastic City, Brock ran at top speed towards the Police Department.
"I have to hurry, Ash and Dawn could be in serious trouble." With this thought in mind Brock kept running until he reached The Police Department. Brock than came face to face with Officer Jenny.
"Oh my sweet and beautiful Officer Jenny, my name is Brock and I ask that you please help me find my friends. After you help me do that may I offer to take you to a romantic dinner getaway under the moonlight sky."Brock said, in typical Brock fashion. A flash of light came out of Brock's back pocket, and it was none other than Croagunk.Croagunk poison stung Brock, grabbed his ear, and started dragging him away.
"Ow, ow, ow !"Brock said in pain.
"Excuse me, I couldn't help but overhear your conversation." a man said.
Brock turned around to see a man with spiky hair, a cloak coming down to his feet,under the cloak he had a red shirt on, fingerless gloves, blue jeans, and had blue eyes. He looked like he was in his mid 20's and like he could smash a bolder with his bare hands with the muscles he has.
"Who are you?" Brock asked.
"Brock, this is Michael, he helps find lost Pokemon, and he also helps around town." Officer Jenny said.
"Please to meet you." Brock said
Micheal than bowed like a gentleman. "Now, whats this about finding your friends."
"My friends were captured by a crime organization called Team Rocket and I think that they are in serious trouble." Brock said in a serious tone
"Don't worry, it would be a pleasure helping you find your friends. We will leave immediately." Michael motioned Brock to come.
"Guys,I'll let the other Departments know in Sinnoh to keep a eye out for your friends!" Officer Jenny yelled before they were out of ear shot.
"Thanks Officer Jenny." Brock yelled back.
"Now, where did you last see your friends?" Michael questioned
"In Prickly Forest" said Brock.
"Go, Dragonite !" Micheal threw his pokeball.In a white flash, Dragonite appeared.
"Dragonite !" said the dragon pokemon while stretching its wings.
"Dragonite,I need you to fly to Prickly Forest as fast as you can !" Micheal ordered. Dragonite nodded and motioned for the two to get own its back. The two hopped on, with a roar, Dragonite took off at top speed.
"Don't worry we'll find your friends." said Micheal,turning his head to face Brock.
"Yeah, I hope so." Brock said.

Back with Ash and Dawn, they've just found a small town called Sindo Town.
"Finally, we're out of that forest. Now, lets go find a Pokemon Center so we can rest up."said Ash, glad to be out of the forest.
"Alright, lets go!" said Dawn enthusiastically.
"Pikachu !" said the mouse pokemon, agreeing with Dawn.
The trio began to walk into town and found out that it was pretty nice for a small town. The streets were clean, the buildings were well kept, and everybody seemed to be happy.The gang began looking for a Pokemon Center. While they were looking for a Pokemon Center they passed a mall. When they were about to pass it something caught Dawn's eye.
"Wow ! That dress is beautiful !" Dawn's eyes started to sparkle as she stared at the most beautiful dress she ever seen. The dress was a blue, sparkling like moonlit sky. Dawn thought it would go great when she's entering one of her contests. She just had to have it. Dawn ran to Ash and managed to get in front of him.
"Ash, before we go to the Pokemon Center can we go shopping, I saw this wonderful dress that would go great when I enter my next contest. Please Ash can we go shopping, pleassssssssse." Dawn mustered up the cutest puppy eyes so Ash would let her go shopping.
Ash tried to resist Dawn's puppy eyes, but failed terribly.Ash sighed
"Fine,lets go shopping."
Dawn started jumping up and down with excitement. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you !"Dawn grabbed Ash's hand dragged him into the store.
"Ow ! Watch how hard you're dragging me !" Ash said. Dawn dragged Ash right to the dress that she saw in the window. Dawn grabbed the dress and went to the manager to ask were to she could change.
"The changing rooms are right over there." said the manager, pointing to his left.
"Thanks. Okay Ash, lets go." Dawn grabbed Ash's hand and dragged him to the changing room.
"Have fun with your girlfriend, kid." said the smiling store manager.
This statement made Ash blush
"Sir, she's not my girlfriend." Ash said while still blushing, but the manager didn't hear him, he was busy talking to another costumer. Pikachu started to giggle when he saw his master's reaction. When the trio made it to the changing room, Dawn dropped Ash's hand and went inside the changing room to try on the new dress. Ash and Pikachu sat on a small bench next to the changing room.Five minutes of waiting for Dawn, the door finally opened.
"So Ash, how do I look." Ash's jaw dropped to sea level. Dawn was wearing the blue sparkling dress she saw, and the dress matched her hair perfectly. Ash was speechless at how beautiful Dawn looked. Pikachu started laughing at his master's antics.
"Yo-You-You look great." Ash felt his face heating up.
"Really." Dawn said with a grin on her face. She walked over to Ash, she hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. Dawn whispered in his ear
"Thank you" Dawn went back to the changing room to put her regular clothes on.
Ash's face was deep red at what Dawn did. Pikachu rolled around in laughter at the look of Ash's face. Ash couldn't believe what just happened, Dawn kissed him, HIM of all people. This didn't make any sense to Ash and gave up trying to figure out why she did that.
Dawn finally came out of the changing room with the dress folded and was in her right hand.
"Okay Ash, lets pay for this and head to the Pokemon Center." Ash could only nod and he followed Dawn to the counter.
After the dress was paid for the trio headed towards the Pokemon Center. When they came in Nurse Joy appeared with her Chansey soon following.
"Hello, welcome to the Pokemon Center. May I help you?"said Nurse Joy kindly.
"Yeah, Nurse Joy can we have two rooms?" Ash asked.
"I'm sorry but we only have one room available." Ash couldn't believe his luck, but they needed a place to sleep, so he took the room. Nurse Joy motioned them to follow her. Nurse Joy opened the door to the room and went off to help other pokemon trainers.
It was just as Ash thought, the room only had one bed. He let out a sigh. How was he going to figure this one out. He didn't want to sleep with a girl, especially what happened at the mall. He let out another sigh
"Dawn, you and Pikachu can sleep on the bed, and I'll take the floor."
Dawn put her hands on her hips,
"Whats wrong Ash, afraid to sleep with a girl." Dawn teased.
Ash started to blush "N-No I ju-just thought you would want the bed."
Dawn started to giggle
"Calm down Ash,I'm just teasing you. Why don't we both share the bed ?"
Ash thought about it for a moment, would he rather sleep on the cold, hard floor or a nice, soft bed ? Ash finally made his decision,
"Okay, we can share the bed."
Pikachu immediately ran over to the bed and snuggled in one of the pillows.
"Great ! I'm going to take a shower first before I got to bed." Dawn grabbed her sleeping close and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
When Dawn closed the door, Ash took of his hat and his sweatshirt. Then he laid down beside Pikachu and understood why the mouse pokemon liked the bed so much.It was like being on a white, fluffy cloud that you can just fall asleep on. Ash felt himself dozing off, he guessed it was because the softness of the bed. Then he went into a deep sleep.
Dawn came out of the bathroom to find Ash and Pikachu asleep.
"They look so cute." Dawn smiled and went over to the bed. She got on top of Ash, put her arms around his neck, and snuggled into his chest. Dawn smiled to herself and went into a peaceful sleep.
Outside the Pokemon Center, three shadowy figures were on top of a tree.
"Be ready, Ash Ketchum." they said
