 Sakura pointed to a round,little pink Pokemon."I want that one!"she
exclaimed.She jumped up and down."Its so cute!"she squealed.Then it
started to sing."That song..its so..soothing.."she fell to the ground,
asleep.And so did Nurse Joy.

 "I forgot to mention that it sings you to sleep..."explained Nurse
Joy just before she fell to the ground also.

 Jigglypuff--the singing Pokemon,got mad and took out its marker and
drew on Sakura and Nurse Joy's faces.On Sakura it drew a goatee,some
swirly eyes, and some dots on her nose.And on Nurse Joy--Swirls all
over her face with an expression that looked like--well you couldn't
really describe it.Jigglypuff was tired so it got back in it's Pokeball.



An hour later....



 Li came along and saw Sakura lying on the ground.He picked her up and
tried to wake her."Sakura wake up!"She slowly opened her eyes,and
gazed up into the most handsome thing she had every seen--Li's face.But
then he started to smile,then laugh.He let go of her and stepped back.
He fell on the ground,laughing.He stomache was staring to hurt from all of laughing.

 "What's so funny?"she asked puzzled.

Li was now laughing harder than ever."Your--your--face!"He finaly said.

"My face?"she asked still puzzled."What's wrong with it?"

Li managed to stand up."Its got marks all over it!"He fell back to the
ground and laughed some more.

Sakura ran back into the Pokemon center,and headed straight for the bathroom.She looked in the mirror and screamed.She tried to get it off,
but it just made it worse.At that time Misty and Nurse Joy ran in.She
had already woke up from the song of Jigglpuff.

"Its okay,Sakura we'll get it off."assured Misty."It's happened alot to me too."

"Thanks..but that's not all.Li laughed at me!"exclaimed Sakura.

"If it makes you feel any better,Ash has laughed at me,too."

"Yeah,but Li never laughs at me.."She said with her head hanging down.

"Keep your head up or I can't get it off."stated Nurse Joy as she tried to wipe the marker away.





They got all of the marks off Sakura.Misty took Sakura back to their
room."I know!"exclaimed Misty whom was trying to make Sakura forget about what had happened."How about we have a really special dinner?I
have a friend whom can cook really well.He can cook whatever you
want."

"Can he cook ckicken teriyaki?"asked Sakura.

"The best!"replied Misty."I'll go call him right now.He is staying in
a hotel nearby.I'm going to go get him after I call.I'll be back soon!"
said Misty as she grabbed her backpack.She walked out of the room,and then walked back in."Can you watch Togepi while I'm gone?"

"Sure."

"Bye!I'll be back as soon as I can!"she said then shut the door behind her.




Sakura sat on the bed playing with Togepi until Kero came in."Sakura,
when are we going to go back home?I want my cheesecake!"

"I don't know if we can get back,Kero."replied Sakura."But I--

"You what?"asked Kero.

"I kind of want to stay here."

"You can't!"exclaimed Kero."What about your friends and family?!

"Kero,I don't want to talk about it! Just leave me alone!"she yelled.
She just wanted to be left alone.All she could think about was the incident that had happened before.

"Fine."he flew out of the room.

Togepi started to cry.It was scared from all the arguing and yelling.
"Togepii!"it cried.

"Shhh.I didn't mean to make you cry.I'm sorry."she apologized.

Pikachu heard Togepi cry and came running into the room.It started
making funny faces for Togepi,and it stopped crying."Pika Pika Chu!"
it exclaimed.

Togepi laughed,and Sakura giggled at the sight of Pikachu stretching its face out.Then their laughing ceased as Li entered th room.Li
looked at Sakura witha face that said "I'm sorry" But Sakura just turned her head and ignored him.

"Sakura..I'm sorry..that I laughed at you...I shouldn't have." apologized Li.

*Is he apologizing to me? No way,that can't be,can it?*thought Sakura.
"That's okay..I'm sorry I got mad at you.Will,you forgive me?"she asked
looking in his eyes.

"Of course."he replied as he sat down beside her on the bed."I couldn't
help but laugh.You should have seen your face."He said looking down at his feet,then he turned to Sakura to see a frown on her face.

Her frown turned to a smile."I did look pretty funny,didn't I?"she
giggled.

"Yeah."he looked up to the ceiling and laughed.Sakura laid her head on his shoulder.He looked down and blushed.Sakura just smiled at him.

"Li-"

"What is it Sakura?"

"I,um..I'm glad that your here with me.."

"Me too."agreed Li.

Pikachu and Togepi watched the two as they carried on their conversation.They talked about how to get back to Readington,but they
had no clue how.Sakura said that they should try to blend in,so she
said Li should get a Pokemon,too.

"But I-"he tried to say.

She out her finger to his lip."If we're going to blend in,we have to
get a Pokemon."she told him."It will be fun!Come on!" With Togepi in
one hand,and Li's hand in the other,she took him to Nurse Joy.


"Li here would like to be a Pokemon trainer,too,Nurse Joy."stated Sakura.

"Okay,give me your name and age,and I'll put in your Pokedex.Sakura
have you registered yet?"asked Nurse Joy.

"No ma'am."replied Sakura.




She gave the two their Pokedex and led them outside to choose their Pokemon."Okay Sakura let's try this again.This time I'll just give
you the Pokeball.Just say, Jigglypuff Return."

"Okay."Nurse Joy handed her the Pokeball."Jigglypuff,Return!"

"What about me?"asked Li.

"Nurse Joy showed me this one Pokemon that I think we be perfect for you Li!"exclaimed Sakura."Would you let him see it,Nurse Joy?"

"Sure.This Pokemon was abandoned by its trainer,so I think you would be
the perfect new trainer for him."She showed Li a green Pokemon with
scythes on his arms.

"He's cool!And he's my favorite color!"exclaimed Li

"Then he's yours."stated Nurse Joy.She gave Li a Pokeball and Li called
Scyther into the Pokeball.

"It looks like we have a new journey ahead of us,Li.And this time I won't be afarid at all,because you'll be by my side."

"And I--well let's just say this will be a great journey because we'll
be together."
