Flaring Up

Hello all you wonderful readers. Guys private message me your fanart seriously. >:< see my serious face... Seriously. Anyhoo, I hope you guys enjoy this oneshot and I hope you all get hyped for the Kalos Crisis.

Ash's nerves were teetering on the edge. At this point, one wrong move would lose it all. Alain watched him from the opposite side if the colossal stadium of the Kalos League.

From the look on his face, Alain was just as exhausted but was ready to fight to his very last breath. His Mega Charizard X was the living incarnation of his burning passion.

Ash-Greninja, in a similar way was the embodiment of all of Ash's determination, his experience and his unshakable will to win. Ash looked to his side.

In the audience, though far away, he could make out his friends. Tierno, Trevor and Shauna all sat in front of Clemont, Bonnie and...Serena. All of them cheered him on with everything they could muster.

However one stood out. Serena passionately cheered with every fibre of her being. He saw her from that distance and having her cheer him on was inspiring especially after the events before his ultimate match.

1 hour earlier:

Ash slipped on his gloves. Most people at a time like this would be nervous, shaking in their boots. Not him. He was stoked. So close to being champion. He slipped a certain handkerchief in his pocket for good luck.

He gave a cheerful grin to his partner who returned a determined smirk. "Pikachu lets win this, we can show the world what we are made of." Ash grinned brimming with confidence. "Pika Pika!"

Just as Ash was about to walk out to his match he felt a tap on his shoulder. "Ash?" A familiar voice questioned from behind him. When he turned, he was met with a smile from Serena and Braixen who mimicked Serena's warm smile.

"Hey Serena, the match is about to start." Ash said anxious not to be late for a league battle a second time. "I know, I just came to say good luck." She said sweetly. Braixen nodded in agreement to Pikachu. Ash smiled at the two.

"We got this." Pikachu squeaked his name in agreement. "I know, but I also wanted to say something..." She looked down nervously and began to fiddle with her hands. Ash raised his eyebrow and then he put his hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, you can always talk to me ok? I care about you Serena." He smiled at her now blushing face. Her head shot up on the last words. "Just make it quick." "I...I love you."

It took a few seconds for Ash to process what Serena had just blurted out. Serena had her eyes closed as if she was waiting for him to reject her idiotic notion. He did the exact opposite, he gave her a hug. "Thanks Serena, that was the biggest confidence boost you could have gave me."

When they retracted from the hug, they smiled at eachother and then Ash turned to go. Serena had a silent debate with herself but there was no reason to stop herself now. So she went for it.

Ash made it two steps before Serena pulled him on his shoulder into a 180. Pikachu nearly flew off which shocked him but not nearly as much as what Serena had done. She pulled him into a shirt kiss.

After a few seconds, she pulled away and moved closer to his ear. "That was also for good luck, now go be my champion." She whispered teasingly.

She backed away from him with a smile. She waved and then picked up pace and ran away with a proud blush. Braixen followed closely.

Ash stood paralysed with a dumfounded expression unable to even comprehend what just happened. Pikachu chuckled at his trainers face which snapped him out of it. "Let's go Pikachu, we have a league to win." Ash uttered with a fantastic blush.
