Ash Ketchum: Unleashed

Chapter 12: The Vow of Revenge

'Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!' the scream rang through the night.
Tears threatened to fall down. Ash sank down, and passed out, unable to believe it.
Everyone sat in horror.
Absolute horror.

Ash woke up. Where was he? He seemed to be in a...
Then he remembered. Mom! He was in a room, with Steven and Clemont looking down at him. Diantha and Cynthia looked at him in apprehension. Bonnie, Serena, Paul and Gary remained at the back.
'Hey, man. You okay?' Steven asked.
'They killed her! I will kill them all!'
'Hey, calm down.' Steven authoritatively grabbed Ash. 'You will end up killing yourself if you are not careful. '
Before Ash could say anything, Cynthia and Diantha tightly hugged him.
'We were so worried about you!'
'Wait... Diantha?!'
Everyone looked sheepish.
'Er...' Diantha explained. 'To put it simply... Iloveyou!'
'W- w- what?!'
'I. Love. You.'
After that, she drew extremely close to him... and their lips, connecting together, shortly locked... in a deep, passionate kiss...
After this, they drew apart, still in wonder.
As was everyone else.
'I love you too...' but then Ash's eyes met Cynthia.
Cynthia looked at the two expectant lovers. She then nodded.
'We will share, Diantha, as we have always done.'
And then both girls were hugging each other and crying.
Ash watched them both with a smile in his eyes. But then his eyes hardened.
'Whatever happens, I will take revenge on them. For my mother, for my friend Lance. ' He resoundingly declared.
Eleven sets of eyes met his.
'We are with you, Ash. '
Eleven sets of hands, and Ash's hands, came together, in the middle of the room.
'Whatever it takes. '
But then... Ash remembered that there were eight other people in the room, not eleven.
'Misty, Brock, Professor Oak, what are you doing here?'
'We are here to help, of course.' Oak dryly said.
'Yes, exactly. But, Ash, you got two girlfriends, that too before me? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!' And with this scream, he collapsed.
'Ah, he is so focused on his goal. Global problems would not sway him from his goals of getting a girlfriend. ' Oak wryly commented, as Misty dragged Brock away by the ear. 'So, what are the plans?'
