Ash Lights in the Dark

Part 15

In a conference room within the region of Kanto there was a meeting in proceedings
" Useless rats can't even kill a damn kid " shouted a man dressed in what appeared to be a team aqua uniform
" Settle down Archie we all knew this was bound to happen one way or another " replied Giovani who appeared to be missing his left hand
" They were the best the black syndicate could offer " replied the new Galactic leader Ariel
" Clearly not I bet them cowards are having their best cover their butts in fear of the warden hunting them down " replied Archie who seemed extremely pissed
" And a wise move by them " replied Giovani
" What does that mean ? " Replied Archie
" Still all muscle and no brain " sighed Maxie
" WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU GROUND HUMPING GIMP!! " Shouted Archie
" Wanna go you bed wetter ! " Replied Maxie
...
And the whole of the evil syndicate went down in an all out brawl with Giovani sighing at the sight of his so called comrades as he thought " we need to get rid of the warden no I mean the ex warden as he is the source of all our problems"
....
Far away at Shinnoh Ash suddenly sneezed
" Someone is definitely thinking ways of murdering me " Ash thought as he got up from his regular routine of work out
" Ring ring ring " buzzed Ash pokedex
Ash picked the call and waited for the reply
" ASH WHAT ARE YOU DOING IS IT TRUE YOU LEFT THE COUNCIL !!! " Asked Scott over the line
" Yes I did " replies Ash calmly as if he expected to be asked
" That's all I get no juicy secrets no nothing?? " Questions Scott as he makes a pouting face over the line
" No I just didn't like it there " replied Ash
" Why don't you become a frontier brai..." Asked Scott before being cut off
" No thank you I already told you I don't like being tied down to a place " replies Ash
" But you can think about it " replie Scott
" No " replied Ash
But sadly for Ash no wasn't the answer  Scott wanted and after a couple of minutes Ash gave in
" Fine I'll think about it " replies Ash as he wanted the conversation to be over
" Now that's more like it " replies Scott
" Anyway why haven't I seen you around the tournament area at all ??" Questions Scott
" Well I'm currently kinda far away and won't be able to come for 1 week more " replied Ash
" What the hell tournament starts in 2 days you dumb kid " shouted Scott
" Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh  fuck " replied Ash as he realised how much of a trouble was he in
" Come quick or else you will lose in the qualifier rounds " said Scott
Silence fell again as Ash realised what it meant
" Pidgeot mega evolve and take me to the stadium" is all Scott heard
-------------------
At the Shinnoh region close to the champions domain we see Cynthia champion of Shinnoh along with her fellow champion from neighbouring regions standing infront of a large crowd of trainers, gym leaders , elite 4 members and all in between getting prepped for the speech by Charles
" We have all gathered here to partake in the upcoming tournament which will label you as a Pokemon master which is a title bestowed upon the greatest of trainers and their Pokemon not only will this test your prowess in battle the ability to think in dire situation but overall the bond between you and your Pokemon I pray to Arceus for this tournament to go without any disturbance .... " Charles spoke but was stopped by a loud screech coming from the distance so were all the people present as they looked above
They saw a large Mega pidgeot sky bombing at an alarming speed as it's screech tore the sky like it commanded the wind in its favour and right before the entrance where all were gathered it landed with such a heavy force that it formed cracks on the concrete road and all looked in awe and disbelief as the rumoured warden the cause for a lot of panic stood infront of them in his usual attire of a hood with a scarf covering its face only letting the eyes to be visible but what was missing was his katana that marked his ranking within the wardens as he made his way towards the crowd and just seemed like nothing happened which caused am uneasiness within the participants as they knew what this man was capable of but before there could be any more questions or nagging about this uncommon entry Charles spoke up getting the attention of the crowd
" Hahahaha quite the entrance you make old friend haha ..... But jokes aside thank you for entering this tournament on my call " said Charles as the crowd grew shocked as not only was the warden participating but also was personally hand picked by Charles of the Pokemon association
" ..... " Ash just simply gave a simple nod
" And so with this we shall have the tournament underway may all of you battle to your fullest and achieve whatever you deserve
And though the Champions were shocked 3 of them were really interested in this new arrival
One being Steven as he recalled the events that happened some days prior
The other one being Lance as he personally took part along with this particular warden in the eradication of some evil group
The last being Cynthia cause as soon as the warden landed her Lucario burst itself out of the pokeball feeling a familiar aura yet it seemed somewhat different too which did not go unnoticed by its owner who wanted to know who the man was that caught it's normally docile Lucarios attention
