There was a swell of pokemon fics a while back where Pikachu turned
into a girl in one way or another [even going so far as to become Lum
herself.] and became Ash's lover, or at the very least in love with him;
this is my answer to that. Ha ha hahaaa.
My pal Pika-girl!!!
Part 1:The not so ancient evil of China City.
It was a beautiful day in China City, Ash Ketchum and his friends Misty
and Brock walked along the street dodging vendors and pedestrians as the
Chinese prepaired for a festival.
"Wow, a real foregn country! This is great Pikachu!" cried Ash as he
looked around in wonder at all the sights and smells around him.
"Ash, this place stinks." whined Misty as she held her nose and glanced
around nervously at the market, vendors where selling various sea foods
near by and several animals where also displayed for sale, probably to be
eaten. "Besides, we have to get to the hotel!"
"She's right Ash, we can go sight seeing later, I want to see some of
the rare Pokemon from this regeion at the Poke-gardens later." Brock
smiled at the young pair as they got those hungry looks in their eyes.
The trip was a vacation of sorts for them, they would get away from the
stress of the Pokemon leage for a while and maybe even Team Rocket, if
they where lucky they could go on Safari and catch some rare foreign
pokemon.
Later the three of them sat around a table in a restaurant and took in
some of the indigenous food of the regeion.
"Wow look at all this food!" cried Ash, "I love this country."
"Yea you said it Ash!" agreed Brock as he dug into a large noodle dish.
"Men, always thinking with their stomachs." sighed Misty. "Right
Pika..." she turned to find Pikachu stuffing it's own face in a large
bowl of fruit. "I suppose you really are Ash's soul mate."
Pikachu seemed pleased with this and looked up at her "Piika Piii."
"At least I have...Togapi how could you?!" the pokemon she was speaking
of lay bloated in a corner from over eating, it's face was slightly
green.
"Toga, piii." said the small egg like creature.
"Well it serves you right eating all that food!" it didn't take long for
her to be cradling the young Pokemon in her arms. "Poor baby."
"Come on Misty, relax! We are on vacation after all, your supposed to
eat too much!" Ash could barely contain his laughter.
"Maybe you boys can! I still have to maintain my figure!" retorted Misty
angrily.
"Ash is right Misty, relax; your supposed to be enjoying yourself."
At that moment a cloud of purple mist filled the room. "Wha? What's
going on?" cried Ash in shock.
"Not this again!" Brock slapped his palm to his forehead and grit his
teeth.
Three strangely familiar laughs filled the room and the trainers all
gasped in shock. "It can't be! We came here to get away from this stuff!"
Brock was very upset.
"Prepair fo trouble!"
"Make two!"
"To protect the word from devistation,"
"To promote communism!"
"To denounce evils truf and ruve!"
"To exstend reach to stars above!"
"Mihoshi!"
"Satoshi!"
"Team Missle brast off at speed of right!"
"Surrender now! Prepair to fight!"
Standing in the center of the room where two Jessie and James look
alikes with black hair, between them a small octopus like Pokemon
chuckled merrily. Their uniforms where black with a large yellow M on the
shirts.
"Ick oog!" called the creature as it stood between the pair.
"Satoshi? Boy that sounds familiar." mumbled Ash to himself.
"Come on lets go!" said Brock as he stood up and glared at the evil
doers as they pulled out a bag and started to collect Poke-balls at
gunpoint.
"Brock! They have guns!" said Misty reluctantly.
The evil trio moved closer to the group of trainers and grinned. "So you
foriegn here? No doubt you have rery rare pokemon, give!" None of them
saw the bloated, over fed Pikachu lying on the ground, they also didn't
notice when they stepped on it's tail.
Outside the restaurant the windows flashed a bright white as the sounds
of three screaming people errupted from the back of the building.
"PIIIIIIKKKKKAAAAA!" cried a voice as the flashes repeated several times.
Then it stopped and smoke seeped out through the tops of the windows and
doors.
"Satoshi, that thing melt our cap gun!" squealed Mihoshi from the cage
as the three Missles where carted away by the local law enforcement.
Ash and his friends stood by the door with a large gruff looking man.
"Now see here, I won't have a group of vigalantes running around my
streets."
"But we didn't mean to, they stepped on Pikachu's tail that's all!"
replied Ash defensively.
"That's why I'm letting you go this time, be careful and stay out of
trouble." the man gave them a warning glare and left them on their own.
"Geeze that was creepy, I bet those two won't leave us alone for the
rest of the trip." Brock frowned and turned towards the hotel. "We'd
better get back if we are gonna look for some Pokemon tomorrow."
Two days later the three of them pushed through a large patch of bushes
in the jungle. "Ash Ketchum you'd better not have gotten us lost again!"
"I'm not lost!" retorted Ash as he studied the map in his hands.
"Where are we then?" said the angry girl.
"I don't know, all the words are in some foreign language!" retorted Ash
as he shook the map towards her to show the strange lettering.
"If you don't know where we are that means we are lost!" Misty stuck her
tounge out and turned away from the boy as he studied the map closer.
"Great, now I've lost my spot!"
"Stop it you two your not helping!" Brock sat on a log and took a moment
to rest with the two free roaming Pokemon.
"Ash Ketchum you have gotten us lost in another country! What if we miss
the boat home? Then what?" Misty was getting angrier by the minute.
"We'll get home, we always get through in the end Misty." Ash had a
strange cheerful look about him as he wandered around the forest. Misty
was begining to think he didn't mind being alone in the woods surrounded
by dangerous and unknown pokemon.
Brock stood up and smiled. "Hey! I see a building!"
They approached the old abandoned stone building warrily. "What is this
place?" said Misty as she touched one of the old fences that surrounded
the building, behind it was a large valley full of small springs.
"At least we don't have to worry about water." said Brock as he gazed
over the scenery.
"It's pretty." said Ash with his smile still firmly planted on his face.
Misty giggled and stood with them, "I have to admit, this whole place is
beautiful."
"This looks like an abandoned pokemon center." said Brock as he faced
the building.
"More like a Pokemon prison, look at all the fences." Ash walked into
the open door frame and pulled out a flashlight from his back pack.
"Weird, there's alot of old broken equipment, looks like there was a fire
too."
A new voice scared the three exsplorers and their pokemon half to death.
"Is old pokemon reasearch labratory, very strange no?"
They all turned to see a short fat Chinese man standing behind them
smiling pleasantly.
"Wh-who are you?" stammered Ash.
"I am guide, I think you people very lost; or did you come to see
ancient training ground?"
"Ancient training ground? We found it!" said Ash happily.
"I'm not buying it Ash. We are lost sir, but this training ground sounds
interesting." Misty smiled at the man and he sighed.
Ash hung his head and kicked at the dirt before following the man back
to his hut with the others. "Being very careful sirs, this place is
dangerous!" warned the man as he lead them down a path through the
springs.
Pikachu walked behind everyone else and frowned as it realised it was
getting thirsty, they where almost to the hut and surrounded by water,
the creature shrugged it's shoulders and walked down to the edge of the
nearest spring. It took a moment for it to realize it couldn't stop on
the slick surface of the stones surrounding it and it screamed as it fell
into the waters. "PIKA...!"
Ash turned in terror at the sound of the splash and saw Pikachu disapear
into the waters of the pool. The guide frowned and held him back, "Aw,
too bad. He fall into spring of drowned girl, very tragic story of girl
who fall in spring one thousand five hundred year ago; now whoever fall
in spring take body of young girl."
"What?" cried the three trainers in unison, at that moment a small
blonde haired girl emerged from the waters with a relieved look on her
face. "Pika!" she cried as she looked and saw Ash running towards her.
"Pikachu! What happened to you! Oh no this is terrible!" cried the boy
as he helped her out of the water. He looked her up and down and fell to
his knees in tears. "Pikachu I'm so sorry this is my fault; I should have
been watching you closer."
The animal looked confused and glanced around, Brock was looking away
with a red face and Ash seemed upset about something, he also seemed alot
smaller. The young girl turned looked into the waters of the spring at
her own reflection. She waved her hand and found this nice looking person
waving back, after a few moments of copying everything she did Pikachu
realized what was happening, that was her. She looked at Ash and her eyes
filled with tears as she grabbed his neck. "PIIIKKKAAAA!!!" wailed the
girl as she joined her trainer in tears.
"Pikachu, you where so manly! What happened?!" cried Ash in sorrow.
"Piika!!" sniffled Pikachu; the pair burst into tears again.
"What's the big deal, we can get around alot easier with Pikachu a
human." Misty didn't understand what was going on.
Brock stepped in, "Don't you know anything? Misty, Pikachu's male pride
must be devistated!"
"What? Pikachu is a boy? How do you know? They are notorious for being
ambiguous!" Misty seemed confused.
Ash was slightly recovered by now and he walked up with Pikachu under
his arm. "I checked, you know, looked; after I first got him."
"Ash Ketchum how could you? That's sick!" Misty was in shock. "It
shouldn't matter whether he was a boy or a girl!"
"I didn't know any better! Why do you think he was mad at me for so long
after I started to train him!" Ash blushed profusely and Pikachu sniffled
again. The trainer hugged her closer to him in an attempt to comfort her
and his hand fell on her breast absently, he didn't realize he had done
it and Pikachu either didn't notice or didn't care.
Misty did and she glared at them in anger, "Ash Ketchum You PERVERT!"
her hand reflexively smacked him across the face and sent him flying into
the air and into one of the pools.
"Misty what are you doing?!" cried Brock.
"I'm sorry it's kind of a reflex!" the girl seemed appologetic and she
gathered Pikachu in her arms as the girl started to cry again.
"Is Ok, we get alot of customers like that recently, lets see what
spring he fall in..." the Guide moved closer and stopped cold as he
realized what had happened. "Oh Mr. Customers! We must run now! He fall
in very bad spring!"
The three turned away and started running as fast as they could, Misty
stopped for a moment and scooped up Togapi as she made a mad dash for the
small hut; Behind them a Jet of water shot from the spring hundreds of
feet into the air as power seemed to surge from the waters. Two glowing
yellow dots appeared inside the rageing torrent as the three of them
closed the door.
"What kind of spring was that? What happened to Ash?!" said Brock as he
lifted the small man up by his shirt.
"That spring made when building burn few year ago! Is very dangerous
spring!" stammered the man. "We must get hot water now!" the man stumbled
to the stove and pulled a kettle from one of the burners.
The door opened and a familar silloette stood in the doorway with two
glowing yellow eyes, it said nothing but shook itself off and breathed in
heavily taking gasping breaths.
"Ash?" said Misty in shock.
Two days later Misty, Brock, Ash, Pikachu, and Togapi stood on the deck
of a boat and watched China city disapear over the horizon.
Misty smiled at her brooding companion and leanded up to him. "Relax
will ya? We didn't have time to stay and look for a cure any longer! We
would have missed the boat and been stuck there. You and Pikachu can
understand each other even better now!"
"I know that Misty, but it's strange really. I'm not really upset, I
wish Pikachu had turned into a boy though. He'd be alot more comfortable
that way." Ash smiled as the foam splashed against the side of the boat.
"We'd better get you inside, the sea is a little rough and unless you
want Pikachu to be a girl or you to change into that thing again we'd
better move at least." Brock walked behind them and went back to the
room.
"I'll kind of miss swimming, I think Pikachu will too." Ash sighed as he
stepped back from the deck.
"Pikachu's an electric pokemon Ash, he won't miss swimming. It's you I'm
worried about, we spend alot of time roaming around outside, you'll both
get wet when it rains at least. Besides it might be useful sometimes!"
"More like trouble! A human female Pokemon? Team Rocket will never leave
us alone now! That's before they find out about my secret!" Ash looked
really worried and moved into the deck.
Misty stood alone for a few moments. "Ash, can't you see I'm worried
about you?" she muttered to herself saddly before walking into her own
room.
From his bunk above Brock with Pikachu at his feet, Ash smiled.
TBC...
You probably have already figured out what spring Ash fell in[or should
I say what kind of spring], but if you didn't it's a bit exsessive and
Team rocket will never leave him be now. [I'll drop a major hint next
time Pokemaniacs!] He has a good chance of becoming the pokemon league
champ now, and Pikachu can't fight against water Pokemon now! Perhaps she
will find a use for her curse? Next time Pikachu begins learning to talk
and Ash returns home to his mother and has a run in with Gary. {Pikachu
will need to learn to pronunciate, he already understand human speech.}
Also, Team Missle...ahem. I will not appologise for their terrible
accents, this was not an accident and the rules may be changed at any
time to make them easier to understand. This is just my way of making
them speak bad English [ or Japanese depending on how much of a purist
you are.] I will be falling back on the Players guide for Yellow to
determine who has what pokemon and not rewatching the show, it shouldn't
matter that much because very little of this will have to do with flash
backs or the earlier episodes; in other words you don't really need to
know if you don't already. It also helps me since I haven't seen the
whole Pokemon series, but I do have a general idea about what happens in
the end.
If you want me to spoil it, Ash becomes a Pokemon Master, but doesn't win
the pokemon league tournament. He just places pretty high.
