It was a windy morning here in the Kanto Region. Jessie, James, and Meowth were tailing the tewrp Marshall and his friends to Cerulean City. Jessie had her hair wrapped around her neck like a scarf shivering in the windy air, trying her best to stay warm against the cold wind. She was beginning to not feel well due to a possible cold coming on.

Besides shivering miserable, her throat felt sore, and her eyes were watering, and her nose was a faint red with mucus running from out of her nostrils. She sniffed wetly and rubbed her nose with her glove hand, trying to clear the runny mucus.

She paused in rubbing her runny nose and looked around to see nothing but trees and more trees. She tried calling out for James and Meowth to see where they were, but her sore throat complicated her.

"Seems like I got left be–" Jessie trailed off as her nose started to twitch and her nostrils flared up; she immediately realized that a sneeze was coming.

She sniffed slightly and rubbed her nose, trying to settle the itch in her nostrils, just wanting to get out of the wind and not stand here any longer, but it wasn't working as her breath started to hitch. She was going to sneeze, like it or not.

"Aaaah…Aaaaaaaah…Aaaaaaaahhh…! Jessie inhaled three times, tilting her neck back each time. Her eyes closed shut as she tilted her neck back far as possible as she brought her home arm up to her nose, ready to release the incoming sneeze.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOO!" Jessie shot her head forward as she released a loud and powerful sneeze into her, which caused a small amount of yellow mucus to spurt from her nostrils and onto her glove. She sniffed as she rubbed her nose with her firefighter soon as she recovered.

"Ugh, I need to get out of this wind," She groaned as she stumbled through the wind blowing, trying to find James and Meowth or at least somewhere to rest. 

After a few minutes of walking, Jessie felt a tickle deep in her nose as her nostrils flared up and her nose quivered. She tilted her upper body back as another sneeze was coming.

"Ah…Aaah…Aaaah-chew!" Jessie shot her neck forward and released a tiny sneeze. However, she didn't have a second to recover as her nose twitched and her nostrils flared up again. She had to sneeze again.

"Aaaaah…Aaaaaah….Aaaaaaaahh…!" Jessie's breath hitched as she tilted her neck back."Aaaaahhh…Aaaaaaaaahhhh….!" Her breath continued to hitch as she leaned her neck back far as possible, and her eyes began to shut close as her nose got ready to blow.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Jessie's body doubled over as she released a massive sneeze, shaking the ground, and a large amount of yellow mucus blasted out of her nostril, hitting a tree and sliding onto the ground.

"Ugh," Jessie groaned as she sniffed loudly, sucking up some of the runny snot from her nose."I don't feel so great," She muttered, holding her pounding head as she started to walk some more to find a place to rest.

Then her legs started to shake, and she began to sway, causing her to fall to the ground, falling on her hands and knees. She was losing her strength to stand and walk as she started to cough roughly. She tried to get up but couldn't move.

"James, Meowth," Jessie uttered as the world started to spin until everything with blurry, as her energy slipped away completely, as she passed out face first. 

She was now unconscious and alone in the woods.

 Marshall was in a clearing training with his pokemon, preparing for his next upcoming gym battle. 

"Charlotte, time to train!" Marshall called out, sending out his shiny Charmander.

"Char! (Let's do this, trainer Marshall)." Charlotte Cried out, ready to train.

"Alright, we're going to work on learning Swift for a long-range attack," Marshall said."So when close range is not an option, you can still fight without risk of getting hurt trying to use close range," He explained. 

"Char! (Ready to go)." Charlotte said, ready to go.

"Alright, we start with trying to hit a tree with Swift, then move on to a moving target," Marshall explained.

Charlotte nodded, ready to train.

"Let's go, Swift, on that tree!" Marshall commanded.

"Charmander (Let's do this!)" Charlotte said, shaking her head as multiple stars flew out her mouth but fell to hit the tree as they faded away.

"Alright, do it again and focus your energy and power!" Marshall instructed.

Charlotte and Marshall continued their training when he suddenly told her to stop after a few minutes. He looked around after hearing what sounded like a faint groan.

"That's enough," Marshall said, taking out a Pokeball.

"Char?"

"I know we haven't trained long, but there is something I need to check," He said, returning her.

Marshall then started walking towards the sound of the groan. As he was farther from the clearing he was training in, he spotted Jessie on the ground, passed out face first, shivering. His eyes widened with concern as she ran over. He rushed over and kneeled down next to her.

Marshall placed a finger on her wrist, checking her pulse. He sighed in relief, feeling her heartbeat, but noticed her skin seemed pale and was burning up despite her shivering.

"Hang on; I'm going to get you out of here and take care of you," Marshall said, picking her up and carrying her close to his side, and making his way back to his friends.

After a few minutes of walking, he stopped under a tree in the clearing near a river, feeling her fever spiking, and decided it was best to rest her here for a while until he brought her fever down some before joining the others.

"You're going to be okay. Just hang in there," He said, looking in his pocket and luckily found a small cloth and placed it in the river, wetting it, squeezing out the extra water before placing it on her forehead and stared at her in concern, seeing how flush and pale she looked. 

Jessie slowly began to open her eyes and noticed something cold on her head and narrow her eyes at the sight of a river.

'Huh there wasn't a river before and there definitely is something on my forehead.' She thought confused, touching her forehead to feel it was a damp cloth and looked around to see who put it on her forehead. 

She then noticed the familiar brown hair of Marshall who shiny Chamander she and the other two had  been trying to steal sitting beside the river head looking down as his Tentacool was swimming around.

'He found me when we were tailing them but instead he found me out here. He must have been out training alone, but why care about me.' Jessie thought and wondered why he brought her here, but couldn't think about that for long as she felt a tickle within her nostrils, which started to twitch and nostrils flared up.

She slowly sat up slightly and moved her hand from her forehead and rubbed her nose and sniffed quietly trying to settle down the itch, but it wasn't working her nose continued to twitch and nostrils flare up. She could feel her breath start to hitch and a sneeze was coming.

"Aaah…Aaaaahh…Aaaahhh…" Jessie tilted her neck back slightly as she brought two fingers up and pinched her nose trying to hold back the sneeze not wanting to show weakness in front twerp, but her nose continued to twitch and nostrils flared up."Aaaaaaahhh...Aaaaahhh..." Jessie inhaled again quietly as she tilted her head farther back as her breath continued hitched and pinched her nose tighter to hold it back, but no success"Aaaaaahhh...Aaaaaahhh..." She tilted her head farther back as her sneeze was on the verge of breaking free."Aaaaaaaaaahhhh…"She tilted her head as far back as possible, not once removing her fingers from her nose.

"Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht!"

Jessie doubled over as she released four stifled sneezes with her nose still pinched. She was about let go, and her nostrils twitched and flared up as she needed to sneeze again.

"Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht!" Jessie suddenly doubled over and sneezed a rapid triple.

Jessie  released her nose from her tight grip and sniffed quietly and wet as she lay her head back down with a soft sigh feeling her head pounding. 

"Bless you."

Jessie's eyes snapped back up to see Marshall still looking down at the ground. She sighed in relief that he wasn't fully paying attention to her, but didn't last long as she felt her nose started  twitch and nostrils flare up again and prepare to stifle another fit of sneezes, feeling close to releasing before she could stop it.

"Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht!"

That was her third fit of sneezes since she regained consciousness.

'Come on nose stop it. I don't think I can stifle much longer, but I won't let lose a free messy sneeze not in fault of the twerp.' She thought as she looked at the twerp who still hasn't moved.

Soon as she snapped out of her thought she was greeted by another intense tickling sensation that grew inside of her; redded nose as it started twitching and quivering. She rubbed her nose with her forefinger in an attempt to stop the tickle. However the desperate need to sneeze beat her. She quickly clamped her nose with her entire hand as the sneezes broke loose.

"Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'ksshh! Hnn'gtt! Ht'kshht!"

The gut left her light headed and knocked the cloth off her head as she let out a raspy breath. She was positive she couldn't keep it up much longer.

"Ehh-t'shewww!"

Jessie froze as that sneeze snuck up on her and  without warning and couldn't attempt to stop or completely stifled it.

"Bless you,"  Marshall said and she looked over to see him looking up at her."You shouldn't do that because it is unhealthy and going to hurt yourself," He said standing up.

"Ugh, twerp," She groaned, watching him return  his Tentacool. 

"Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'kshht! Ht'ksshh! Hnn'gtt!"

"Seriously let them out freely it help relive your nose more," He said walking over to her and picking up the cloth. 

"Twerp, how long have you been listening?" Jessie asked in a raspy voice. 

"Oh I been aware of you being awake before you even release your first stifle sneeze," He said touching her forehead seeing she still had a high fever."I think you'll  need some medicine," He said, picking up the cloth that fell off.

She was about to say something until, once again, her nose started to twitch, and her nostrils flared up as it began to tickle again. She was about to clamp her nose shut with her hand to stop it before Marshall moved it away.

"Let it out," He said, keeping her hands away from her nose.

"Huh…"Her breath started to hitched as her nostrils quivered and flared as she tilted her neck back as her nostrils continued growing and shrinking."Huuuhhh...Huuhhhhhhhhhh.." every gasped she took tickle her nostrils more and more."HuuuuhhHHHH..." She turned 

There was a belief paused with no release at first. She almost thought the sneeze was gone until she took a sniffed, and the tickle suddenly came back, causing her to inhale one more time as she turned away from Marshall. "HuuuuuuhhhhHHHHHHHHH…!"

"HUHHHHH-TSCHOOOOOOOOO!" She shot her head forward as she released a slightly loud sneeze shaking the ground and blowing some grass in the air as a mild amount of mucus shot out of her nostrils and mouth, hitting the grass. 

Jessie sniffed wetly and rubbed her sore and red nose for a few minutes after her hands were free. She then moved her hand away, brushing her long messy hair from her face but accidentally brushed it against her nose, causing her to sneeze faster than she could react as her head was immediately tossed back.

"EHHHHH-TSHEWWW! HUHHHHH-TSCHOOOOO! AHHHH-CHEWWWWW! AHHHHHH-CHOOOOooooo!" Jessie shot forward as she released four uncovered sneezes which caused mucus shot out her nostrils and onto the grass again.

"Bless you," Marshall said, pulling out a pack of tissues."It's not a lot but it should help clear your nose some," He said, handing it to her.

"Thabks," She said full of congestion as she took some of the tissues and blew her nose loudly.

"Come on, let's get you where my friends and I stop to have lunch. It's probably ready by now, and get you food and medicine," He said, picking her up.

"Ugh, twerp," She groaned, leaning her head against his side.

"Don't worry you will be okay with rest, food, and medicine," He said looking at her as her eyes started to close."I take care of you until James and Meowth show up for you," He whispered softly as he returned to their campsite. 

I hope you enjoyed this one shot of  Jessie being sick and being care by Marshall, who is one of my Pokemon OCs in my story, replacing Ash as the main character.
