Packing

Misty got little sleep. She had to leave early in order to get to Cerulean City and back by a good time. Especially since Ash was...well not the best since he became pokemon master. Misty got to the gym at about 12, and she left at 5. She figures she'll get back to Ash's at about 7-8. She enters the gym, and is unexpectedly attacked by her sisters. 

"What the!?" 

"Like Misty, what was that text!?" Asked Daisy.

"Yeah, like, what's up with that lil sis?" Followed Violet.

"Listen guys, Ash really ne-" 

"ASH!?" They yelled simultaneously. 

"Yes Ash. Is tha-" 

"Like he ruined your life!" 

"Didn't need the reminder Lily." 

"Like why would you, like, stay over by him?" 

"Because his mom just died and he is in no condition to be alone right now!" 

"But Mi-" 

"Like girls, let her." 

"Really?" 

"Like, are you sure Daisy?" 

"Yes. Our sis is, like, a good person. She really needs to help this jerkwad. Who knows, maybe she'll, like, change him back." 

"Thank you Daisy. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go pack."

Misty went up to her room. There she instantly started to pack. 

"No time to w-" 

"Psy!" Psyduck popped out of his pokeball. 

"Not now Psyduck! I have to pack." 

"Psy?" 

"Long story short, we'll be staying with Ash for a while." 

"Psy, Psyduck!?" 

"Yeah, yeah. Now listen, can you please just get into your ball for once without a hassle?" 

"Psyduck?" 

"I'll take that as a no." She then proceeded to sorta absorb Psyduck into his pokeball. 

It worked and she went back to packing...,but then he got out again. 

"Ugh, fine! You can stay out." 

"Psyduck." 

"But you have to help me pack." 

"Psy?" 

She then went to her closet. She grabbed a bunch of clothes and plopped them in front of the pokemon. 

"Fold them and shove them in here, ok." 

"Duck." 

"I'll take that as a yes." 

Misty went to pack other things, while Psyduck did his best to fold and pack up the clothes. It was like that for a while, until she found something. Something she never thought she'd look at again. Ash's first hat. 

"Psy, duck ps-Psyduck?" Came the pokemon. 

"I remember that day." 

-10 years ago- 

Ash was packing up on his bed, when Misty came in his room. 

"Hey Mist, what's up?" 

"I-I-I just wanted to say I'll miss you." She wanted to say something else, but just couldn't. 

"I'll miss you too, but I swear we'll keep in touch." 

"Like always." 

"You know what." Ash got up from his bed. He went into the closet, and grabbed something. He hid it behind his back as he walked up to Misty. 

"What's that?" 

"Well, remember when we all split up that first time?" 

"How could I forget?" 

"Well if you recall, you gave me 2 things and I only gave you 1 thing." 

"Ok, and so now you're repaying me back? Classic Ketchum." 

"Yeah, yeah, anyways I want you to have this." 

Ash handed her his very first hat. 

"Oh Ash, I-" 

"Think of me when you have this, remember me with it, ok?" 

"Ok." 

-Present day- 

Misty had some tears in her eyes. 

"Psy?" 

She went and packed the hat. 

"Ok Psyduck, ready?" 

"Psyduck." 

"Good, cus I'm ready too." 

Psyduck was a bit confused, but sorta understood. He was then returned to the pokeball. 

"Time to help a friend."
