Chapter 2
I do not own Pokémon or the Coma Theory
Last time:
Ash restarted his Pokémon journey from where he left off. Ash estarted his journey, he was chased by a flock of Spearow again, but Dawn, one of Ash's friends from his dream, saved him from the Spearows. Ash and Dawn then decided to travel together to enter The Pokémon gyms and contests. The duo then made it into Viridian City and decided to head out into the Viridian Forest the next morning.
"I hope we don't get lost in here." Dawn said as Ash and Dawn entered the Viridian Forest.
"No need to worry, Dawn." Ash said. "We'll get through the Viridian forest." The duo then continued walking down the path deeper into the Viridian Forest. "I wonder what types of Pokémon there are in here." Ash said looking around.
"Well hopefully there's no Spearows here." Dawn said. Ash nodded his head in agreement. Hours passed by as they continued to travel deeper and deeper into the Viridian Forest and there was no sight of any Pokémon yet. After a while the duo came to a familiar looking part in the forest. "I think we're lost." Dawn said.
"We're not lost." Ash said. "We just don't know where we are." Dawn held in her urge to yell at Ash and tried to keep a straight face. They then walked down another path.
"Maybe we should find someone to help us get out of here." Dawn said starting to get a little worried.
"Don't worry Dawn." Ash said. "We'll find our way out eventually." The duo then heard something rustling in the grass a few feet ahead of them.
"W-what's that?" Dawn asked starting to get scared and hid behind Ash.
"Maybe it was the wind." Ash said trying to hide that he was scared too. The grass rustled again and the duo saw it move around.
"I don't think it was the wind this time Ash." Dawn said. The two of them walked slowly towards the rustling grass. When they were finally near enough to the rustling grass, a green Caterpie popped out. "What Pokémon is that?" Dawn asked.
"It looks like a Caterpie." Ash said and took out his pokedex to make sure. "I think I'll catch it." Ash then said after the pokedex recorded its entry. 'This reminds me of the time I caught a Caterpie in my dream.' Ash though. "Go Pikachu!"
"Pika." Pikachu said.
"Pikachu thundershock." Ash said.
"Pika-chu!" Pikachu said shocking the Caterpie and knocking it out.
"That was easy." Ash said while both he and Dawn sweat dropped. "Go Pokeball!" Ash said as he threw a pokeball. The Pokeball then shook and clicked to confirm the capture. "I did it!" Ash then yelled. "I caught a Caterpie!" Ash then yelled and did a victory dance. When he looked at Dawn and Pikachu, they both were sweatdropping. "Sorry, I just got excited because it was my first Pokémon capture."
"Oh ok." Dawn said.
"Chu." Pikachu said. The duo then continued walking down the path trying to find their way out of the forest.
"I wonder how far we are from the exit." Ash said.
"I hope we're close." Dawn said. They then continued walking for a few more hours and they were still nowhere near the exit. They then sighed and decided to set up camp for the night.
"We should at least stop for the night to eat and get some rest." Ash said. "We'll need a lot of energy tomorrow if we're ever going to find the exit out of this forest.
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Dawn agreed then sighed. "I just don't like camping out in the woods and there is no bathroom."
"It's not that bad Dawn." Ash said remembering the many times he camped out in his dream. Dawn then sighed again.
"I guess you're right." Dawn said.
"Besides look at the Moon and all of the stars." Ash said pointing up to the starry sky. Dawn then looked up.
"I've never seen so many stars." Dawn said forgetting about camping out during the night. "It looks beautiful."
"Yeah." Ash agreed. The two then continued talking while looking up at the starry sky. They then decided to eat a light snack before going to sleep since it was too late to eat a big dinner. After Ash and Dawn finished eating they decided it was time to go to sleep. "Good night Dawn." Ash said.
"Good night Ash." Dawn said. The two were staring straight up towards the night sky for a while.
"Hey, Ash?" Dawn asked.
"Yeah, what is it Dawn?" Ash asked.
"Can you help me catch a Pokémon?" Dawn asked. "I've never done it before and you looked like a real pro out there." Ash then sweat dropped.
"No need to worry, I'll help you." Ash said.
"Thank you Ash." Dawn said.
"No need to thank me, Dawn." Ash said as he turned to look at Dawn. "We should probably get some sleep for tomorrow."
"Alright, good night Ash." Dawn said.
"Good night Dawn." Ash said to Dawn as they both started to go to sleep.
Ash's Point of View in Ash's dream
"Huh, where am I?" I asked looking around. I found myself in a big stadium that looked familiar. I then saw a few of my friends from my dream.
"Ash, are you ok?" a familiar squinty eyed man named Brock asked.
"Brock?" I asked. "How are you here? I thought you were just someone I made up in my mind."
"Ash, are you sure you're ok?" Brock asked me.
"Yeah, I'm fine." I said. "But all of you are made up in my mind." I said again.
"He doesn't seem fine to me." Misty said. "He's saying that we're all made up. That match against the Champion Alder must have taken a toll on him."
"Guy's I'm fine-." I started then realized what Misty just said. "Wait, I'm back at the Unova League?" I asked. All of my friends nodded looking concerned for me. 'This must be another dream.' I thought to myself. 'Ash wake up, you're sleeping in the Viridian Forest with Dawn and Pikachu.' I then thought, starting to get scared that I might be in another coma.
"Ash, are you ok?" Dawn asked looking really concerned almost in tears.
Ash's Point of View Real World
"Ash, are you ok?" Dawn asked me while shaking me awake looking concerned almost in tears.
"Huh, what is it Dawn?" I asked looking at both Dawn and Pikachu who had worried looks on their faces.
"You were talking in your sleep. You said something about something about being made in your mind and that it was all a dream." Dawn said.
"No need to worry, Dawn." I said. "It was just a dream. I'll tell you about it in the morning."
"Ok." Dawn said still looking worried.
Normal Point of View
Dawn then went back to her sleeping bag and fell back to sleep. Ash was thinking about the dream he just had.
"What does this mean?" Ash asked himself. "I'm not in a coma anymore so why did I have that dream again."
"Pika-chu?" Pikachu asked looking concerned.
"Don't worry Pikachu. We'll talk about it in the morning." Ash said.
"Chu." Pikachu said and went to sleep. In the morning, Ash, Pikachu, and Dawn packed their sleeping bags and ate before they started to travel through the Viridian Forest again.
"What was that dream you had about last night?" Dawn asked still looking a little worried as they finished eating.
"Well when I was in a coma, I had this dream about my Pokémon journey. I made up a few friends in my mind and when I woke up from my coma I found out that they were all made up." Ash said.
"Oh I see. Is that what you were dreaming about last night?" Dawn asked.
"Yeah." Ash said. "You know it's kind of weird, because you were one my friends in my dream that I made up in my mind." Dawn then looked at Ash, shocked.
"But, we just met, how was I in your dream?" Dawn asked.
"I honestly have no idea." Ash said. "If you exist though maybe my other friends from my dream exist also."
"You think so?" Dawn asked.
"Well maybe." Ash said. "I know that one of my friends exist for sure, besides you, since I ran into her before I went into my coma."
"Ok. You think we might see them?" Dawn asked.
"Maybe." Ash said. As the two were walking a wild Pokémon jumped out of the grass.
"What's that?" Dawn asked.
"It looks like a Buneary." Ash said. Dawn then pulled out her pokedex and recorded Buneary's pokedex entry.
"I think I'll try to catch this one, Ash." Dawn said. "It's so cute! What do I do first?"
"Well I would send out your Piplup." Ash said.
"Ok. Piplup, Spotlight!" Dawn said as she threw her pokeball and Piplup popped out of it.
"Now I would order Piplup to use an attack." Ash said.
"Ok. Piplup use bubblebeam!" Dawn said. Piplup shot a beam of bubbles that hit Buneary. Buneary then decided to use dizzy punch.
"Dawn don't let those dizzy punches hit Piplup. It could confuse it." Ash said.
"Ok. Piplup dodge it quick!" Dawn said. Piplup just got out of the way of the dizzy punches. "Ok Piplup use peck!" Dawn said. Piplup then ran at Buneary using peck. Buneary then dodged it and used bounce knocking Piplup back. "Piplup no!" Dawn said. "Piplup was still able to fight though.
"Piplup!" Piplup said ready for its next command.
"Ok, Piplup use whirlpool!" Dawn said. Piplup then threw a vortex of water at Buneary and hit it directly knocking it out.
"Ok, Dawn now throw a Pokeball!" Ash said.
"Ok. Go Pokeball!" Dawn said as she threw a pokeball at Buneary. The pokeball then shook and clicked to confirm the capture. Dawn then picked up the pokeball. "I just caught a Buneary!" Dawn yelled as she imitated Ash and did a victory dance.
"Good job Dawn." Ash said.
"Pikachu." Pikachu said.
"Thanks Ash and Pikachu." Dawn said as they started walking through the Viridian Forest again.
After walking around for a while Ash, Dawn, and Pikachu then decided to take a break. While they were taking a break, a Pidgeotto swooped into the tall grass that was nearby.
"Was that a Pidgeotto?" Ash asked.
"I think so." Dawn said as they both took out their pokedexs and recorded Pidgeotto's entry.
"I think I'll catch this one." Ash said. 'This is just getting too weird.' Ash thought. "Pikachu use thundershock on Pidgeotto." Ash said. Pidgeotto turned to look at Ash, Dawn, and Pikachu right before Pikachu zapped and paralyzed it. Pidgeotto used gust even though it was paralyzed. "Pikachu dodge it then use quick attack!" ash said. Pikachu then dodged the gust attack and hit Pidgeotto with a quick attack. Ash then decided to throw a pokeball. "Go Pokeball!" Ash said. Ash then threw the pokeball and Pidgeotto got sucked into it. The pokeball then shook and clicked to confirm its capture. "I caught a Pidgeotto!" Ash said and did his victory dance.
"Good job Ash." Dawn said and gave Ash a high five.
"Thanks Dawn." Ash said. Ash and Dawn then continued on their way for a while but were stopped right by the exit of the Viridian forest.
"I can't believe we made it." Dawn said exhausted.
"Yeah me too." Ash said. "Let's go to-."
"Hold it right there!" a voice said. Ash, Dawn, and Pikachu turned around to see someone standing behind them. The person was dressed in a bug catcher's clothing and was carrying a bug catcher's net.
"Who are you?" ash and Dawn asked.
"My name is Will and I am a bug catcher. You guys are Pokémon Trainers right?" Will asked.
"Well actually I'm a trainer and my friend is a Pokémon Coordinator." Ash said.
"I see." Will said. "I want to challenge you to a Pokémon battle. What are your names?"
"I'm Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town." Ash said.
"Pikachu." Pikachu said.
"I'm Dawn from Twinleaf Town." Dawn said.
"It's nice to meet you Ash and Dawn." Will said. "Ash our match will be a one on one battle. Are you ready?"
"Yeah, let's go." Ash said.
"Weedle, I choose you!" Will said and threw a pokeball. Weedle then popped out.
"A Weedle." Ash said as he took out his pokedex and recorded Weedle's entry.
"Pidgeotto, I choose you!" Ash said as he turned his hat backwards and threw a pokeball. Pidgeotto then popped out and flew up into the air.
"Weedle let's begin with poison sting." Will said.
"Pidgeotto, dodge it!" Ash said. Weedle shot its poison sting at Pidgeotto but Pidgeotto easily dodged it. "Pidgeotto quick attack!" Ash said. Pidgeotto then flew into Weedle at a fast speed. Weedle was still able to fight as it skidded backwards from the attack.
"Weedle use string shot!" Will said. Weedle then shot string at Pidgeotto and covered Pidgeotto with it.
"Pidgeotto try and counter it with gust!" Ash said. Pidgeotto then flapped its wings and countered the string shot covering Weedle with it. "Now let's finish it off, use gust!" Pidgeotto then hit Weedle with a powerful gust attack and Weedle fell down unconscious. "Alright, I won!" ash said.
"Congratulations Ash." Will said. "Thank you for the battle. I must go now. May we meet again someday. Bye."
"See ya!" Ash said. "I hope we meet again someday too!"
"Bye!" Dawn yelled.
"Pika!" Pikachu yelled. After Ash's battle with will, Ash, Dawn and Pikachu started walking towards the exit of the Viridian Forest. After a while of walking Ash and Dawn finally reached the exit.
"Finally, we're out of the Viridian Forest!" Dawn said relieved.
"Yeah." Ash said. "We're almost in Pewter City." They continued walking and made it to the city limits of Pewter City. "Well here it is, Pewter City." Ash said.
"This is where your first gym battle and my first Pokémon contest is at." Dawn said.
"Yeah, I can't wait!" Ash said.
"Me too!" Dawn said. They both started running towards the Pewter City Pokémon Center.
Next Time:
Dawn captures a Pokémon, Ash's first gym battle, and Dawn's first Pokémon Contest. Ash will meet a familiar face in the next chapter. Just who is it?
Who do you think will appear in the next chapter? I think it's kind of obvious.
R&R please!
