Our young heroes; Ash, Misty, Pikachu, and Brock were walking through the forest, on their way to Vermillion City. Or atleast.. they think they are.

"Ash, it's all your fault we're lost!" Misty said, in an annoyed tone.

"What? No! I know very wel where we're going." Ash answered, "Route 24 should be around.. uhm.." He looked around.

Brock just shook his head slightly with an amused smile on his face as he watched the two argue.

"Pikapi.." Pikachu said, sitting on Ash's shoulder.
