BROKEN BEYOND REPAIR

🌹THE LOVE PARADOX🌹

"A grand wedding? Queen Ilene is getting married." May asked eating her food as they heard it from Richards.

"Not the queen. It is someone else. Otherwise we would have seen a procession leaving or entering Rota which i doubt." Richard answered leaving everyone alone as he walked into his tent.

"I wonder who." Misty said as she placed the empty bowl down indicating she was done eating.

The food was awesome but it was tasteless for them. They ate in silence around the fire as a few of them got in their tent to rest their mind and body.

Tomorrow was the day they enter Rota. Who knew what did the future held for them? Finding Ash there would be a much bigger problem than they think it would be. Ash was seen last day in Galar.

Now they were doubting searching Rota but they came too close to back off now. Galar too. Ash defeated two of the strongest trainer in the circuit like it was nothing. The battle showed how strong he became over years. That sheer strength of defeating a Champion's pokemon. Much less a pokemon of someone who held title of world monarch. Clement sighed as he was left alone with brock as they picked up all the dishes.

"Surely i can't be the only one who caught on the signs. Right Brock." Clement placed the dishes at a place looking at the crescent moon.

"About what?" Brock asked him.

"Ash. Come on brock. Even I know you aren't an idiot." Clement said his eyes meeting with Brock's non existent eyes.

"Maybe. But i hope this isn't true." Brock answered. Everyone else in the group was too focussed on things like feelings and stuff. Whether Ash would talk to them, whether Ash would forgive them, why were Cynthia and Diantha and Clair were with him, who was the little girl. They weren't noticing signs that were too obvious. All these little things leading to one conclusion.

Mostly the one he expected to catch on the signs first. Sabrina, a little girl who look like her, that one year leave, saffron city massacre, Ash. It hurted brock. He knew the path they chose will hurt all of them. Every single one of them. In a way, he doubted anyone would be able to pick up the broken pieces.

"Where do you think we should find Ash?" Clement asked brock.

"Maybe the main Castle." Brock answered shrugging his shoulder.

"I doubt it. If it is a wedding then the castle must be closed for visitors. We need to find another way." Clement answered walking into his tent when his pupils turned to face the man. He tilted his head and saw brock from corner of his eyes.

"Good night brock." He said and walked away. Clement knew more than that. He wasn't the smartest for no reason. He knew his IP address was tracked down and maybe Ash knew it was him. But if he knew why hasn't he come hunting for him.

Did he really wanted to even talk to them. He doubted. Ash travelled across regions within hours and coming for someone literally next to Rota wouldn't be a problem for him.

Was he really the one to find about them or was it someone else.

"Uncle Lance there." Hina pointed toward a direction as Lance walked toward there. Fighting villain teams, having death battles, gun fights, deadly wounds, tortures. He was ready for all of it but babysitting wasn't something he ever did.

He didn't even knew what to talk Hina with. All he knew to talk about his missions, killing and murder. And if he talked about any one of them with Hina he knew Ash would murder him for real.

"Hina, you know about Galar." Lance asked the girl on his shoulder.

"Mama told me about it. Dynamo max.." She said as they sat down on a bench while Lance offered her popcorns.
