Pokémon academy

Chapter 44

[Charizard’s POV]

The preparations for the impending war were completed, we were just waiting for the Kalos military orders to engage the battle. As per the laws, Pokenation was only an aid to the military service so until we got the order from the main headquarters we were still waiting.

Ash wanted a bloodless battle, all the men we had trained were equipped with weapons that dealt non-fatal damages. No Pokemon or human was to be killed as per Ash’s request. But he had given his four most trusted pokemon the power of the Jewels, among them I was the most powerful.

The amount of power that I was given was uncontrollable for a normal Pokemon, even I had a hard time at the beginning, but now it is easily under my control. I have enough power to destroy this whole planet, I know that. In our training I haven’t even used nearly 10% of what I have and I was shocked when even a team of seven legendaries and my friends weren’t anywhere near beating me. But Ash on the other hand stood above me like it was nothing. He has absorbed a large amount of Jewel’s energy.

The energy is easy to control as long as you have a strong will, the moment someone’s mind wavers the power overwhelms your mind and you submit to the ultimate power of the Jewel. I still remember when Leaf and Serena had been victim to this and had destroyed the mansion. So glad we got in time or they might have hurt some civilians nearby too.

“Charizard, we need to get the troops ready quickly!” Ash called in to my transmitter.

“Wait, what do you mean?” I asked.

“The war, we might get called in any moment. Get them to board the jets. Now!” He replied.

“Woah, is it already time for that… Okay, I’ll get them.” I said before flying off to the army building to make the announcement.

Is it finally happening the day of the battle we had been training our hearts out. How long has it been since we built this base here? Time went by really fast, It feels like I had just acquired the Max form. But now that I think about it, it has been two months since Ash proposed for the offer and we made a decision. A whole two months since Ash changed for the worst. I miss seeing the old Ash. The Ash who trained me as a Charmander, the small and weak Charmander who was abandoned by his original trainer. Together we grew strong, I still feel a little guilty for disobeying him when I gained power and had ignored his orders during our travels. Those were some mistakes I made, and I am never repeating them again no matter how strong I get. Because it was Ash who made me so strong. So, when he wanted us to get stronger I chose to give it all and drive my natural Charizard instinct to disobey my trainer away. I will forever submit my body and soul to my trainer. No power on earth can turn me against him. This was my resolve when I was training to master my Max form, because it was hard to stay sane with that amount of strength. I will end this war and bring my old Ash back. It’s now or never.

The troops were informed and the whole camp was now in rush. Sound of jets starting up and men loading in the equipment, the sound of boots studding against the ground, weapons clanking together and yelling and shouting all around. It was all happening according to plan so far. It’s been what? 20 minutes or something and the jets were ready to take off. I flew to the main office to see what was going on while everyone waited outside.

I reached Ash’s office to find Greninja waiting inside for someone, when he saw me he gave a small nod and I replied with another nod. We didn’t need words to understand that he was asking if I was ready. I was always ready for this battle. I was in my normal form so it was easy for me to walk in the building. Pikachu too came in behind me. His forehead had grown a jewel like thing, I had a red glow in it. It was there for a long time now but it was hidden behind his fur, now It had surfaced completely and was visible and glowing like an orb. And not just the orb, his whole body had gone under metamorphosis of some kind because now Pikachu looked different. It was all just effect of extensive training his body was adapting for the amount of power he was filling up in the Pikachu body, He should have evolved ut since he refused to do that, his body has taken it on it self to evolve Pikachu but since it wasn’t technically a pokemon evolution so his body was just doing it slowly.
