Ghost Ash [Complete]

Chapter 16

Normal POV

Ash (human form) and co are heading to Sandgem Town. On the way Ash was still trying to master his new form to keep him "human" for more than two hours. He wished to changed whenever he felt like it.

Ash saw his new way of living like a gift. He felt like he had some sort of superpowers or had power like a ghost or psychic type Pokemon. 'I've always wanted to have power like a Pokemon' Ash thought to himself as he produced a smile.

Suddenly a strange man came sprinting out of the bushes. Ash quickly returned himself to spirit form as quick as a flash without the man seeing, this alerted Misty, Tracey and Bonnie of danger.

The man's face was cover by a dark hood, and wore a long leather jacket. Without the man knowing, Ash (spirit form) sneaked closer to analyse him. Ash's eyes widen in horror. The man was covered in mysterious red liquid. It was dripping leaving a trail behind him.

'Whats wrong with him?' Misty asked noone in paticular. As the group followed the trail.

'We don't know, thats what we are going to find out' Bonnie replied panting for air.

'Do you think hes hurt' Tracey questioned. Pikachu nodded in agreement, but Ash wasn't so sure...

A couple of minutes later.

The gang stopped in there tracks when they found the man leaning against a tree, gasping for air whispering and talking to himself.

'I didn't want to do it... But it was orders from the boss' the strange man stated 'she was innocent, she just had to get involved with... him' the man facial expression showed pure anger. Ash walked over to the man listening into his conversation with himself.

'I wish he was dead' he gritted his teeth,

'Who?' Ash said to himself, noone could hear except Pikachu.

'Sir... are you okay?' Shouted Tracey as he ran around the corner.

'Leave me alone' the man said coldly.

'You look injured' Tracey said with concern.

'I said LEAVE ME ALONE' the man grabbed something out of his coat pocket, it was coated in the same red liquid as he was.

'Is that... blood?' Ash's face went white. Ash looked at Pikachu,

'Fresh blood' Pikachu felt sick to the bone.

Suddenly the man lunged at Tracey. Everyone's eyes widened in horror. As they watched their friend collapse to the floor in pain.

'TRACEY!' Misty cried rushing to his side.

The man started to run away dropping the weapon. Ash let him go... he knew he would see him again.

Ash returned himself to human form, and walked over to the weapon and examined it 'weapon of choice was a small knife... it is coated in 2 thick layers of blood, one was dryed and the new thick layer was Traceys... he had hurt someone else.. a couple of hours earlier' Ash stood there speechless. He looked behind him to see Tracey laying on the ground screaming in pain.

'SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULANCE' yelled Misty at the top of her lungs, tears streaming down her cheeks. 'NOW!'

'Your going to be okay' Misty comforted Tracey as she put pressure on his wound.

At the hospital

'Tracey has lost alot of blood' the doctor explained 'He has slipped into a coma' the group gasped, Misty was gasping for air, she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

'Ash go on your journey without me, I'm going to stay with Tracey' Misty pleaded, as she pulled Ash into a hug.

'I'll miss you' Ash began to say, trying not to cry 'I may never see you again'

'I know... Your always be in my heart and mind' Misty hugged him tighter as she pulled away she kissed his cheek 'Always remember that' Ash wiped away Misty tears.

'Always'
