The Return of The Forgotten

Chapter 11

Ash was woken up by a loud sound from a door in the other room. He rubbed his eyes and heard the little girl scream.

"I need to use the bathroom!"

"Nice try!" Ash replied. "You have a bathroom in your own room!"

Ash could hear Pikachu squeak with laughter in his bed. Ash gave the little rodent a questioning look as Pikachu tried to look innocent.

"You did something to her bathroom, didn't you?" Ash asked his faithful yellow pokemon.

Pikachu looked into Ash's eyes and tried to be serious, but Ash saw a smile grow on the rodents face, the smile then grew to laughter.

Ash shook his head as he walked towards the girl's room and opened the door.

"Had a nice slee..." Ash didn't get any further as the girl ran past him and into the bathroom.

Ash decided to walk and take a look at the bathroom. He was fascinated and annoyed that a little yellow mouse-pokemon could make such a mess.

The toilet was filled with paper and almost overflowed with water, several bottles of shampoo and perfume laid on the floor, some broken and others leaking.

Ash shook his head and left the room.

"Aren't you going to yell at that stupid thing!" Sarah yelled at Ash.

Ash looked at the girl, it was clear that she was angry as hell, her face was a mess and her hair was even worse than Dawn's bedhead.

"No." Ash simply stated at the girl's question. "I won't."

"But why?!"

"Pi has saved my life too many times. I can't just yell at him for such a simple thing." Ash said, then he added. "And didn't you lock him in when I told him to watch you?"

At those words Pikachu jumped onto Ash's shoulder and stuck out his little red tongue at the already furious girl. Ash chuckled.

"This was your revenge Pi, wasn't it?" Ash asked with an amused tone.

Pikachu nodded his head eagerly in agreement.

Ash turned towards the place Sarah had stood, just to find the place empty. Sarah had walked to get some breakfast, and maybe plan revenge towards the pokemon and its trainer.

"Nice one." Ash whispered to Pikachu. "But we need to stay alert now."

Pikachu nodded seriously, then rubbed his cheek against Ash's and cooed happily.

Ash got dressed and walked towards the cafeteria to get something to eat.

Ash spotted the little girl waving towards him, it seemed like she had forgotten everything already. Ash also spotted the group of his old friends. He quickly withdrew himself towards the stairs, he hadn't pulled his hood over yet and Pikachu was still on his shoulder.

"Pi, return." Ash said as he pulled his hood over his head.

Ash felt something tug at his cape and looked down to see Sarah standing there with an annoyed look on her face.

"It's really annoying that you're hiding like this." She said angrily.

"Yeah yeah." Ash said as he walked discreetly towards the food service.

He got his food and walked over to a table in the corner of the room, it made few people notice him but he could see almost everything in the room. Sarah was sitting beside him.

Ash took a look around the room, there weren't many people there. Two people that seemed to be a couple, three girls that looked over at him and giggled when he looked at them, then there was the group of his old friends, but there was tension in the air around the group.
