ILLUSION BLUE BIRD
Cap.31
In the silence of the cave, she heard a noise and suddenly something just fell on him at Ash.
- Ahh! - Yelled surprise and fell backwards. The flame was extinguished in the fall.
- Ash! All right? - Asked Misty.
- Uhh ... - the boy rubbed his head and feeling that something was left on his stomach, he decided to rekindle the flame. He stood in amazement, find themselves in a few inches from his face, a being with chubby cheeks, long ears, the whole body and yellow eyes round and staring at him with lively curiosity.
- Un ... Pikachu? - Said May surprise and a bit 'disappointed-The monster was nothing more than a Pikachu?
- But it's so soft! - Magic Melody said.
- You're right! - Concord Dawn, as the fear-It 's very nice!
- Cute or not, you may get out of my stomach? - Annoyed at the pokémon Ash said. The
pokémon Ash would not listen and tried to lift it by force.
- Wait, do not do it ... - Brock tried to warn him, but now the pokémon had invested with its electricity discharge.
- Ahhh! - Ash shouted back.
- Pikachu ... I have quite sensitive if you touch them, explained Brock.
- Thanks for the warning, "said the dark-roasted for good But why me?" - Muttered, still lying on the ground.
- Pika? - Seemed amused by the expression of the pokémon Ash, almost did not understand the danger of his attack.
- ...- But Brock said, looking at the Pokemon-I understand that the six nice.
- Great ... - Ash said with irony-And now how I get up?
- Why do not you keep it with you? - Dawn suggested. He loved pokémon with the face as tender as that Pikachu.
- I would just be out of trouble now-discarded the idea.
- I am aware it is not you looking at alternatives, "said Melody Pokémon hours fiddling with the hair of the boy. The hat had flown elsewhere-seems to be fond of you.
- But not even a ruler of the thunder-Ash complained. The idea of \u200b\u200bhaving a power plant on the stomach, did not make him euphoric.
Misty leaned over and gently took the pokémon yellow, that she was taken into the arms of the girl.
- I do not think he is so dangerous-Misty-patting on the head You've had so little to scare?
- Chuu ... - gave the rating with pokémon.
- What?! - The boy was surprised- Why do not you did anything?
- I do not know-Misty shrugged, "But is not this what we have to worry about. We can not remain for eternity in the cave. Stand up and go.
- Easy for you to speak, "said Ash-He's not getting you incinerated. The
pokémon Ash looked back and jumped on him.
- Ahh, again! - The boy backed away and went onto the shoulder pokémon-Eh?
- Pika, pi! - Pokémon said cheerfully.
- Maybe, but it seems to me to be born among you a love story, "said Misty amused.
- Spirit.
- I wonder what made us a Pikachu in these galleries puzzled, "said May.
- Maybe stuck here for a long time or maybe one of these tunnels leading to the place where he lives, "said Brock.
- And now what? - Complained Ash-I do not know wants to leave.
- Do not you just have to carry around, "said Brock, passing the hat.
- Superb ... - resigned Ash sighed, then smiled, seeing the Pokémon so perky.
was not the first time a Pokémon without the approaching problems, a child had grown close to many pokémon and it seemed at times to have a certain affinity with them.
But in recent years had done everything to remove any living being that he felt the pokémon and his hostility had stopped looking for him.
keep him for a while ', would not be a big hassle. The pokémon would soon tired and he would go his way.
The group finally reached the end of the cave. The daylight enveloped them.
Ash saw the pristine landscape of the first time he had been there. It was strange being back there.
remembered the dialogue he had with the teacher. Ibid. How would have led to now?
- How do you call - Dawn asked curiously, referring to the Pokémon.
- I'm not going to keep it with me-Ash objected.
- But you still give it a name, right?
- Go for Pikachu then-he said simply.
- Wow, you're the king of Misty-made fantasy.
- If you think you're so creative, why do not you propose the name? - Ash said, annoyed.
- ... There, she said a deep voice.
- Mh? And you want to call a woman with a name?
- No, no, There is here, "said May with a certain fear.
Ash looked ahead of him and saw the woman coming towards them. It was not changed by the time he had known.
- My treasure! Light of my eyes! Your prince has come back to you! - Brock said elation and ran.
- Aspet ... - said May, but now Brock was thrown into the air by the woman, without even time to reply-I'll never learn. Misty
wait to be in front of the woman and looked serious. The woman looked at her and then smiled.
- You came back.
- Yes, she nodded.
- I'm glad to see you-smile. Misty at first doubtful, then reciprocate the smile and the instant after ibid grabbed her by the arm, making it fly away.
- Kyaaaa! - She cried.
- Still too slow, Misty!
- Do not leave me no time to react! - Complained Misty lying on the ground for the umpteenth time and wondering why we fell down every time.
- You needed an invitation? - The woman turned to the other and stared at Ash. Then with a firm step went straight to the boy, who stood almost fearful of the unpredictable reaction of a woman, but ready to defend themselves "Oh, but I see that you have a new companion-she said stroking Pikachu and ignoring Ash, who breathed a sigh of relief.
- Pika-smiled at the pokémon.
- It 's funny to see an electric pokémon Ash looked around here-and-especially one that gives so much confidence to a human.
- Whether it's an abandoned pokémon? - Brock said he recovered from the flight.
- Who would be so cruel as to leave him inside the cave? - "Dawn said.
- No, it's a wild pokémon ...- someone said, reached by a slow pace. He was a gentleman of a certain age, with gray and white hair, brown eyes. He wore a suit of brown trousers and polo red, and above a white coat. The man looked at the pokémon yellow, almost examining it, I think also in good shape.
- Who are ...?- Ash asked with surprise. It was the first time I saw him. But strangely, as he had a special feeling when he had approached.
- Prof. Samuel! - Misty and Brock exclaimed, surprised.
- Misty, Brock ... it's been so long since we've seen, the man smiled.
- What are you doing here? - Asked Misty.
- I had some free time and so I came to find a dear friend.
- Misty, who is he? - May asked. He could not remember having seen it many times before.
- Oh, sorry. He is Professor Samuel and has previously worked with some research Ibid. Every so often comes to visit her.
- Hi- made in the boys choir.
- Prof. Samuel, they are my friends ... May, Melody, Dawn and Ash.
- Nice to meet you, greeted the man.
- rather, why are you here? - Asked Ivi-Do not tell me that you came for a holiday.
- No, here ...- Brock looked at Misty. She turned his eyes elsewhere. It seemed to be an exaggeration went to There, but Brock had insisted so much.
Ash remembered at that moment, the reason for their presence there. A bit 'hesitant, he shook his head and then looked at the woman. Was his turn to take the first step.
- E 'due-opened my mouth-I am not just a ruler of the fire. I have lied, "said the boy. The boys turned to Ash. The woman listened in silence, I lied to everyone ... in fact I'm part of Team Magma and my mission was to join the group and delete them-the eyes of the woman became very serious. The boy seemed to linger-but this is part of the past. Now I ... I ...
- ...- Ash Misty looked at the boy. She was surprised that the boy was talking.
- I decided to abandon the mission and leave the Team Magma-ended Ash decided to look.
The woman was still in silence, while he felt a pull heavy air around. Ash lowered his head.
- Mh ...- giving the woman turned her back-I think you were preparing tea, Manuel.
- ..- Yes, he nodded with a smile.
- Well, let's go- the two men started as if nothing had happened.
Ash was speechless. What had happened?
- Ma ..- confused-he did not say anything? I've just admitted ...
- that he was part of Team Magma, I know. So what - she did not quiet-with me that you have to confront. You have made your choice, I think. You should not have been easy, but your teammates you have accepted. I think that is enough, no?
- S-yes ...- but she ignored him.
- So you do there? Samuel is good at making tea. You must try it.
- You are always kind, dear Ivi-Samuel said, going with her to the house.
- But that stuff ...- Ash said, shaking his head. And he expected a series of reprimands or fists to her. After what he had said last time ... her reaction had left him speechless.
- There is this way, "said Brock shrug-She did not need many words. I think he fully understood your feelings.
- Eh?
- Come on, let's go before you get angry Ibid.

- I just do not go, "said Richie, the table of the ship.
- Accept it appears. Gary was on his side, the sympathy of the chief did AJ
- And you all right?
- At the moment I do not care. And Gary is too smart to beat.
- Its not ... cunning and evil.
- What did you expect? We are Team Magma. We handle orders and that's it.
- Yes, but Richie ...- sigh-I wonder what Ash would say if he were here.
- Forget about that traitor. We are going to destroy it, no?
- It 's really necessary ...? - Did the voice of a girl. Giselle-Ash sat down with them may just be under the thumb of those guys. He did not betray his country to join with the losers.
- Do not tell me we're still hurting, he enjoyed AJ-Your boy is given to whether the legs ...
A fork's stuck between your fingers resting on the table. AJ was a rock for the sudden action of Giselle.
- It '... that the girl ...- she said furiously, grabbed the fork again.
- Mh? - Richie looked-Are you referring to the domination of the water?
- She 's the cause of everything! The fact has brainwashed me and took him away. But do not go I'll make them smooth.
- You're exaggerating, "said Giselle Richie, AJ and slowly withdrew his hand from the table. Giselle glared at him.
- Are you telling me I'm wrong?!
- I say that you're furious because Ash is gone without telling you anything. But if you think about it, he has ever considered. Why take the trouble to greet hours? - Giselle became flushed, AJ backed-I doubt that Ash has never loved anyone. Me neither, that I was closer, I never really understood. He did not usually talk about himself or give a lot of confidence to the other, bowed his head-It 's weird ... Ash has always fought for himself, not for ideals or to save someone. How can it be changed?
≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ** ** ** ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈
- The Battle Frontier? - There looked at them, then shook his head-Mh, yes, I heard about it ...- remained vague, and so told you that your stone is the thunder.
- I see it? - Samuel asked.
- Yeah .. uh, wait for those who had it? - Brock said.
Ash suddenly recalled having kept in his pocket all the time. He lifted it out.
- I forgot to put it back in the bag, he said sheepishly.
- I'm not surprised your carelessness, said Misty.
The boy sat on the table and noticed the concerned look of Pokémon. Pikachu passed from behind the ruler across the table. He looked at the stone amused.
- What it takes you now? - Asked Ash.
- It seems as attracted by the stone, "said Brock.
- I think he did normal-Samuel-It 's an electric pokémon and this rock contains a high electric force.
- Wait, but when we were in the cave, he still had the stone? - Misty asked to die. He nodded and then included.
- So I was approached because he had warned me to come in the energy of the stone. And I thought who knows, he looked disappointed, but partly relieved not having to deal with the Pokémon.
- This at least explains the mystery-May said.
- Sin, nipped in the bud a tender love story-fun said Misty. Ash made a face.
- It 's really amazing how they have entered into possession-Samuel-examined the stone that I thought were well hidden.
- in fact we wonder how this couple came in possession of it is, "said Brock.
- What you gonna do? - Samuel asked.
- When nothing yet-Brock shrugged "We can not risk. We need to gather more information.
- I understand ...- Samuel put the stone and looked at the little group of guys-Still determined to attack the Fire Lord?
- Sure. Was there any doubt? - Misty said.
- Samuel ...- But she looked uncertain. She shook her head.
- I do not deny that the road is becoming more difficult, but we can not give up hours, "said Misty, sensing the perplexity of Samuel's why we need to train constantly, she recalled with discomfort the clash with George-Il Team Aqua has become more fearful ... To get to the Lord of fire, certainly will meet them in our street and we collide with them again. And I want that day, all we will be ready for battle.
- Are you a rash, but now I surrendered, "said Ivi shrug-We will see that you can do. In the meantime, relax, and tomorrow we start with training.
The other nodded, even though they sensed they would be subjected to such training women.

- Do not you sleep? - A voice asked.
- How could I? - Did the voice of the raven-haired boy Pikachu insists on sleeping on my stomach.
- I do it a habit, "said the girl had fun, sitting next him to look at the landscape offering remote corner, surrounded by mountains.
- What do you mean? Pikachu is not interested in me, but Stone. I will be mistaken for a ruler of thunder.
- Perhaps no-Misty pointed to the pokémon yellow perch on the legs of the boy-Pikachu Although it was initially attracted by the stone thunder, even without that he will remain close.
Ash was to think, then turned toward the girl.
- I'm not gonna take it light immediately following.
- Ah, but you can not deny the fact of having a little thought-Misty said with a smile.
- I can not bring in a Pokémon battle, he said seriously, would die instantly. The pokémon are not trained to fight.
- you can always train, "she said. Ash shook his head.
- Taking care of a Pokémon ... I would not be able to.
- but will not be alone. Remember that now you are part of a team, the boy looked at her, then bowed his head-nodding What is it?
- I was thinking ... if it is right that the prof. There I have said nothing yet now it seems so absurd that it stayed with you.
- Did you want that you did the lecture? - She asked, amused.
- I say this-he said sheepishly. He hated the girl is playing with its uncertainties.
- For me, surprised me today, "said the girl seemed natural-perhaps you will, but your gesture has amazed us- Ash did not understand, admitting your mistake, it means that now you're leaving the past behind.
- Past the shoulders ...- he repeated, as if absorbed some thought.
Misty looked again Pokémon Yellow and gently caress.
- Be spontaneous and innocent ... almost envy-Pikachu said with a little 'bitter.
Ash looked at her, without grasping the concept of his words.
- You want to be instead of Pikachu? - Had baffled him.
- If there was an opportunity to escape from the feelings that are suffering, away from the responsibilities ...- stopped petting the pokémon and made a forced smile, not a bad Pokémon, eh? The boy continued
not understand the words of the girl.
- Well, now you go to get a good sleep-Misty stood there shocked There To-morrow with his workouts.
The boy nodded and let the girl started first. He gave a look at the pokémon who slept peacefully on her lap.
- To be a pokémon ...- shook his puzzled head-What he says is nonsense.

- So, in short, a tall and rather thin, was impatient at the entrance of a hotel and yet I had said, for 8.00 am-precise He looked again his watch- And the 8:01 is well!
At that time a boy was quietly leaving the hotel.
- There you are! - The boy cried in a tone of reproach-but you've seen the time? We can not trust you. we have a roadmap e. ..
The other boy, he raised his eyes bored by the usual Paturnie friend.
- Calm down Barry, "said the brown, lower than in meat-friend and more We have the whole day ahead of us.
- This you say it, Kenny. For this time we should already be halfway to the next city e. ..
- Assuming that it takes to get there one day, as I think I get in a few hours? As if it did a few minutes difference.
- Give the case, which I visited three cities in two days, "said the blond, all proud.
- I'm not going to do the marathon, like you. And then, easy to talk to you, your item will provide all the energy you need ... and makes you more stressful than ever, he added.
- I'll pretend not you heard, because they are anxious to leave for another trip!
- Yes, I understand that, but ...- took out a newspaper that he had in his knapsack-We will have to be careful. Are happening in the world without worrying ...
- Quiet, man-gave him a pat on the back-I will protect you.
- But I really I was not referring to the uncertain and embarrassed, "said Kenny.
- Yes, yes. Do not be afraid, "continued the other without listening, and now on its way! - Raised his arm and walked shipped. Kenny sighed and gave another look at the newspaper.
Earlier he had met a man who had mentioned in the articles written in code. Had not paid much attention, thinking it was a joke, but there were too many accidents and mysterious origin, including the fire in a context dominated. The paper only give a rather superficial version, claiming that all was well. But I understood from him that those articles sounds ridiculous.
The world heard of battles, all won by Team Magma. It was also absurd that anyone could win against them, but increasingly heard a group of warriors who were preparing to end the war.
If there was a new war, the consequences would be enormous. But if the Fire Nation continues to expand, anyone would be in danger. For a few minutes
remembered his village invaded by Team Magma ...
- Kenny - he heard himself called by his parents. The boy walked into the living room, where his parents were very upset and agitated. The mother put a bag over his shoulder and looked grim-faced.
- What, Mom? "- He asked in alarm.
- I've put in the necessary-she said from the back of brisk-Exit and follow the professor Rowan. It will bring you and all the other children safe.
- And you? Do not come with me? What's happening?
- No time for explanations. We'll get off soon, "said the father, go away!
scared and uncertain, he left the back door. He saw many other children like him slip away from the houses. Followed them from afar and saw the professor Rowan.
- Come on, come through here. Move, "said the gruff professor at children, and they headed for a path through the vegetation.
The child stopped and looked at children who were with him, but noted that Leona was on her own. He then headed by the professor.
- Professor, missing someone ...
- How? No time now, I'll try, you go with others.
The brown was uncertain, however. Behind him, you could feel the excitement on the streets. Who was reached?
- What are you doing here? - Leona met him and tried to drag-It 's dangerous, if you see those men.
- I must go and search-Leona-guessed he was referring to those who had quarreled with his mother, should still be at home, the child ran towards the village.
- Kenny, wait - the girl cried.
The child went through the alleyways secondary and stopped to look for hidden men in uniform with the symbol of a flame, enter every house and put everything into a mess. There was utter confusion and people running here and there. Kenny went on run and reached the house. But the smoke appeared to come from inside and heard a cry of a woman.
- Dawn! Dawn! - Said the desperate voice. Kenny
sneaked through a window and saw the noise, there was an ongoing battle. But those men were in the majority. He heard sobs
then curled up and saw a girl with long blue hair.
- Dawn, come - the boy grabbed her arm and dragged her out the window, sure that those people were too committed to the fight, to pay attention to the windows.
Without stopping, Kenny ran with all his strength, bringing with it the girl who kept crying. He would not turn, did not want to see his village to take fire. At that time only had to think to survive. shrugged. Who would be crazy enough to go against a whole nation of rulers of the fire?
- Kenny, hurry! Or leave you here! - Shouted the blond a few meters ahead.
Kenny began to repent of having proposed to travel together. He sighed again and threw the paper into the dustbin.

- A coin for your thoughts, "said a girl with long orange hair.
Another girl was lying on the floor, on the soft snow, eyes turned to heaven. Her purple hair, stood out in the fresh snow.
- I can not stand this climate, "said with a grin.
- What? I thought you liked it, did surprise the other with a smile. Gently, he sat down on his knees next to each other made-It was not you that girl you said, that snow white is the most water?
- No, that was you. Do you like the snow and create many maneuver attacks. Now the only thing you create with the snow are just puppets.
- And what do you from 'bother you? - Asked the other gently, with his delicate voice.
- This bothers me, turned back, so you have it in front of him and pointed-You and your engagement.
- How? - Asked her sad and sorry.
- I'm not saying that is not happy for you, "added the other for not grieve her friend-It 's just that since you and Kyo did you officially engaged, you are changed. You were the best mistress I have known. The three of us together, we can not be beaten. I thought you liked to fight.
The girl with orange hair, bowed his head and stroked his head workplaces.
- I understand Ibid. But I can not stay the usual tomboy as a child. Now that you are betrothed, I can not afford to make mistakes. I can not deface Kyo before others.
- I wish we could go back to being children, training and fun-made Ibid disappointed. The friend smiled, her skin white, mingled with the same snow. If the snow had fallen, would have struggled to find her.
- Remember when we wanted, we girls who were granted the same opportunities as boys? - There nodded-I will endeavor to ensure that everyone has the chance to hone their domain. Kyo also agrees with me. It will take time, I know, but I'll keep my promise. We girls have every right to fight alongside the people we love.
- But why get engaged? Could not you wait? So you'll be forced to give up to train with me. Besides, this way you do-she sat up-You're not like that, you were not so.
- Dear There, I am the same as always, took her hand. Its sweetness was almost disarming There he knew, he knew too well, I'm always the girl with which to invent new techniques along with Kyo. I'm just grown up ... I fell in love and it made me mature. Kyo was able to calm my temper and made me a better person.
- Better, eh? - Grimaced angrily and took his hand from the girl.
- This probably will understand it at the right time. Who knows, when you get the right person ...
- Oh no, thank you, shook his head and lay on the snow-fall in love If I should reduce it, I prefer to live alone. Do not ever give up the fight.
- There ...- looked again-sorry for me, Kyo and you're always very important and that's why I want to commit myself to improving our city. Though it seems, I have not stopped fighting, he smiled sweetly-Trust me, ibid. - There, There ...- she opened her eyes, waking from his memories.
- Yes, tell me Samuel looked at the man holding a tray and handed it on the table before her.
- I thought you'd like to take a cup of tea, "said the gentleman, and sat on the chair in front of her-it seems very thoughtful ... there is something that worries you?
- Nothing important, said the woman, taking a swig from his cup-It 's just that the words of Brock reminded me as I was young.
- You have not changed since then-Samuel nodded.
- You think so? - Looked up at the window next-But I like the impression of having lost sight of something important ...- then turned back toward the man, I do not feel confusion at home, where they went boys?
- after you've thrown out early this morning, the man said with an amused smile, recalling the scene-will still be there to train.
- Mh-woman stood up and walked out into the open.
- Come May, lashing, they heard the voice of Misty. The two girls were facing each other. The others were arrested and were attending the meeting.
- How do you want the brown ...- started in attack.
- They have energy, "said the young Samuel watching two girls fight.
- ... Maybe a little 'too much, "said There with his enigmatic gaze.
Misty was about to give the decisive blow, May was at a disadvantage and could not dodge it, but his attack was deflected. The two girls were surprised seeing There in the middle of the battle. The other boys were caught as they are. May there had protected from the attack.
- What ...?- Misty incredulous "Why did you do that?
The woman ignored her and helped that May had fallen to the ground.
- all right? - Asked Ibid. May nodded confused.
- So, what happens? - Misty Ivi-We were approached by training.
- Yes, it's so- confirmed May.
- I would say that is enough for today, "said the woman decided to Samuel-Help collect the vegetables from the garden.
- What? - Complained about the group, which would have definitely preferred to rest, but follow orders. They feared an angry Ibid. Samuel led them.
- You're the usual tormentor-Misty said.
- No, not you-stopped before it reached the other two of us-we need to talk, "said the woman turned to Misty.
- Ma ..
- Now! - Overriding said and walked away, followed by Misty who snorted.
the Ash looked away. He wondered, like any other group, he wanted to talk with Misty Ibid. He seemed more serious than usual. He wondered
also why he had interrupted the meeting. Yet everything seemed in order.
A hand rested on his shoulder. Ash turned and saw the prof. Samuel smiled gently. For a brief moment it was as if something had tried to contact. There tended.
- Let them talk peace, "said he, like guessing the thoughts of the boy-girls in between speeches, it is best not to put words, is not it?
The boy nodded.
≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ** ** ** ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈ ≈
- First stop on our training, then forces us to work for you. And now, what do you want to talk?
Before realizing it, was thrown to the ground by an attack of water. Misty looked even more surprised Ibid.
- What are you thinking?! - Shouted the woman.
- C-like?
- I was going to kill your partner?
- Misty ...- I was confused by the words of the woman-how could do such a thing - stood up, was just a workout, we always do! No one hurt seriously. I do not understand why you get warm that way!
- are you sure about that? Then look behind you.
The girl turned even more confused, and saw only the trunk of a tree broken in two. He meant to say?
- Do not you understand, right? And 'I was your attack diverted, to break the tree. And not only that-he pointed to the broken branches and puddles of water here and there.
Misty turned to the woman incredulous.
- How is that possible? I have not attacked for the kill. I could never do that. I do not have such a force.
- From the way you fight, it would have seemed even more-Misty was in the flask. What was happening to her? The woman approached her, Misty, you ... you lose control of your element.
