My dearest

ch.5

FRIENDS, REUNION AND INTRODUCTION

Ash groaned as he frustratingly threw an Aura Sphere to the nearest boulder, shattering it to a million pieces. It has been five days since Elena left and it only added to his anger and sadness. He was pissed because of one reason and that reason was because he had encounter Team Galactic once again and this time, it was in the holy land, Mount Coronet.'Why are does idiots planning something so stupid and so dangerous, that it might cause a catastrophic phenomenon?' Ash thought in anger as he threw another Aura Sphere towards a tree, reducing it into splinters. 'Do those morons from Team Galactic knows or have even have an idea of what kind of disaster there going to create if there plan actually worked.' Ash shiver at that thought as he threw a punch in the air, shooting a massive blast of aura towards the sky."Damn it, why me, why does it always have to be me?" Ash asked out loud in frustration as he slammed his fist to the ground, creating a five foot crater beneath his fist. "Why do I always have to be the one to fight those bloody organizations and not those bloody authorities?" Ash stood up and sigh in frustration as he survey the area where he was training.The entire area, the entire field was completely leveled. The trees surrounding the field were all reduce to splinters and the boulders that were scattered in the field were now nothing but rubble. The land itself looked like a barren waste land that had been through countless wars."(Somebody's pissed off)." Ash heard a familiar voice said behind him. Ash glanced at his back to see his Pikachu looking at him with an irate expression. Ash sighed before laying down on the destroyed land."Yes I'm pissed off, if you could still remember, we once again cross path with Team Galactic but only this time, it was in one of the holy land." Ash said looked at his 'brother' and partner."(It happened yesterday and if I can still recall, they didn't damage the ruins there, so no harm done)." Pikachu said in a comforting manner."That's not the point Pikachu, it's very fortunate that none of them could use Aura or else they would have easily found the Spear Pillar located there. I also screw up and didn't recover the Spear Key." Ash scoffed in disappointment."(Those idiots don't know how to use that key properly so you should at least relax for a while)." Pikachu reminded as he lay on his chest."Yeah, you might be right but still." Ash grunted at the numerous scenarios he played in his minds, most of them not good. "I shouldn't be thinking too hard." Ash said as he stood up and head towards his backpack."(Are we going back already)?" Pikachu asked as he jumped to Ash's shoulder."Not in the very least. Professor Oak and the others are not their yet so it would be pointless for us if we got there to early, I especially don't like being in constant surveillance by Dawn's mother. It's like that woman in determining if I'll be a good son-in-law." Ash once again shudders at that thought. "I don't even like Dawn in that matter, what is she, five, four years younger than me." Ash added."(You might not like her that way but she does)." Pikachu said in a low whisper, unfortunately Ash heard that, barely heard that."You say something Pikachu?" Ash asked with a certain edge in his voice."(I said aren't you excited to see our friends again, after such a long time)." Pikachu said frantically in his best lying voice. Luckily for Pikachu, Ash bought it."I'm excited to see them again but I do wish that they won't start travelling with us again." Ash said as he opened his backpack and began searching for something."(Why not? There our friends, why wouldn't you want to travel with them again)?" Pikachu asked in a curious manner."Easy, with so many people travelling with us, it would be harder for me to meet up with Elena, and that will not do." Ash said as he frantically empties his backpack. 'Please tell me I didn't leave that phone at Dawn's house. If she calls and somebody answers it, I would have a lot of things to explain.' Ash thought as he pale at the thought.Pikachu seeing his 'brothers' face, instantly knew what the problem is and decided to help. Pikachu's body suddenly glow bright yellow and his eyes glowed golden. He then lifted one of his paws and instantly, a black phone rose in one of Ash's hidden compartments, which was covered by a yellow aura. Ash was not surprised after seeing what Pikachu did and just grabs the phone hastily."Thanks Pikachu and I see you're actually getting good in that magnetic manipulations with been working on." Ash commented as he dialed the number of his lover."(Arceus, why do I have a love sick trainer)?" Pikachu asked dejectively as he jumped from Ash's shoulder to the ground and run off towards the nearest place where there was a large steel or metal deposit, he has a magnetic and lightning ability to master while his partner and 'brother' have some romance with his future wife.(Scene Change)Two people clash their respective Sabre as they clash with speed that could be described as inhuman. The two of them were wearing protective clothes that were appropriate for the fight, for fencing. The first was the tallest among the two and was wearing red clothing and was clearly a male, the other one was the smallest among the two and was wearing black clothing and was clearly female, evident to the large chest area. The two of them clash their thin blades like two warriors with spectacular skill and amazing speed but it was clear that the female was more skillful than the male as she quickly outmaneuver and overwhelm her opponent by a series of thrust.The female then sidestep a thrust towards her and then hit her opponents right hand with the back of her blade, disarming her opponent, she then trip her opponent, causing the male to fall down, flat on his back. When the male look at his opponent, he saw the tip of his opponent blades pointed of his neck.The man chuckled a bit before removing his helmet, revealing his face. "You really are a remarkable fighter, Elena." The man said with a smile."Thanks father." Elena said as she removed her helmet, revealing her beautiful face. Elena then helped her father up to his feet.Elena's father, Henry was a person in his mid 30's. He has silver hair, similar to his oldest daughter, Hunter J, and has similar crimson eyes with Sarah, his second daughter. He has well build body and mustache on her face. He has all of the defining traits of his two eldest daughters; he has the same childishness and IQ similar to Sarah and the same ruthlessness and cruelness in battle similar to Jane (Hunter J). The only thing he has in common with Elena was being a workaholic."You gotten slow, father." Elena commented as she threw a bottle of water towards Henry."I'm getting old, Elena, it very common for old people to get slow." Henry replied as he drank the bottle of water. "That and you are a real prodigy at fencing." Henry quickly added as he threw the bottle of water towards the trash bin."Thanks, father, but I think the compliment should go to you, you are the one who thought me how to fence." Elena said as she place her sabre to its sheath and place the sheath to her side."I figure this is where I'll find the two of you." A woman said as she entered their personal gym. Elena and her father looked at the woman and smile after having a glance with the said woman."Good morning, Natasha." Elena and her father greeted in unison."Good morning, Henry, Elena, I hope I'm not disturbing anything." Natasha said as she smiled at the two.Natasha was a middle age woman but it could not be determine by first glance because of her sexy figure and her beautiful and youthful face. She was a very fine woman, with her long brown hair that was tied in a ponytail, her sparkling hazel eyes, and her sexy body; she seems to be a woman who was only in her early 20's. She was also a tender woman but has a very terrifying and fierce temper."You're not disturbing anything, Tasha." Henry said with a smile at his childhood friend. Natasha nodded before handing over a folder to him."We have a job offer but it's a bit skeptical." Natasha said as she looked at her friend, whom was reading the folder."There offering us a lot of money to study some ruins that are scattered all over Sinnoh." Henry said as he analyzed the job offer."We have a couple of expedition in Sinnoh before but there are some ruins that they mention in that folder that we hadn't yet explore, we might discover some interesting things." Natasha commented as she pointed-out the mentioned ruins. Henry and Elena looked at them with interest."They want us to study the ruins in Mount Coronet, so they want us to find the Spear Pillar." Elena said out of nowhere, which cause the two adults to looked at her questioningly."We've been searching for the Spear Pillar for years, dear, how could you say it's in Mount Coronet." Henry asked in a curious manner."Henry and I have searched there before but we didn't find anything. So what's your basis in saying that" Natasha added.Elena looked at them and smiled. "Maybe you guys didn't look hard enough or you guys fail to see something that is in front of you." Elena said in a sage like manner."A friend of mine said that his been in the Spear Pillar before and showed me proof that it is really located in Mount Coronet." Elena reasoned."And who is this friend that showed you proof." Henry inquired with curiosity in his voice.Elena looked at her father before saying with a mischievous expression. "S-E-C-R-E-T."Henry grunted at her daughters answer and Natasha laughed at her friends reaction but quickly recover her composure. "You do know Elena that we can have the team to go to Mount Coronet in a wild goose chase because of some proof that your friend showed you, we need to make sure that the basis is accurate before we make a move." Natasha exclaimed."I know, if you guys want your proof, then I'll show you my proof later, but first I need to shower, I stink." Elena said as she walked away from the two older archeologists."She growing up like her mother, let's just hope that he doesn't have her mother's taste in regards of choosing men." Natasha said after watching Elena walked away."Yes I know, don't rub it in. I already know that I'm a horrible husband and a horrible father, I don't need you reminding me constantly of that." Henry sighed in disappointment to himself.Natasha looked at her friend with slight anger. "I still can't believe you have the guts to try to become their father after leaving them for ten years to follow that senseless dream of yours." Natasha scolded which earned her a glare from Henry."Let's just focus on the job at hand, not in my pass." Henry remarked as he shoved the folder towards Natasha and walked away towards his personal office. Natasha just shook her head as her friends antics.'This guy would never learn, after losing the two women that he had ever loved, he still wouldn't learn his lesson.'Natasha thought as she followed Henry towards his office.(Scene Change)'Is it wise for me to show them that? Ash did give it to me in my birthday and said the I should use it if I need it, but it may risk our secret.' Elena thought weighing her options as she bathe at the hot water descending on her.'Why did I mention that I have proof that the Sky Pillar exist in Mount Coronet in the first place, I think I got overly excited again and I had to run my mouth. Ash would probably scold me if I let my team explore one of Arceus Holy Land.' Elena thought as she turned off the shower and exited the shower room. She then dried off and covered her body with a bath robe after wearing some undergarments. She was about to exists when she heard a ring on her phone, the very phone that she used to contact Ash.Elena, after pausing for just a second, quickly grabbed the phone and answers the call. "Hello Ash." Elena greeted happily after seeing the face of her beloved via electronic image."Hey beautiful, I hope I'm not disturbing anything." Ash said as he smiled at seeing his beloved."You're not disturbing anything loved, I've just got out of the shower and it is pretty slow today." Elena replied as she leaned to the nearest wall. "What in the hell have you been doing? You've looked like you've been in a war." Elena added as she noticed Ash's exhausted faced."Just training a little, I got to stay in top shape in order to control my Aura." Ash said in seriousness. "So what have you been doing in the past five days since you arrive?" Ash inquired with curiosity in his voice."It's been pretty boring really. We have no new artifact to study and no new ruins to explore. We don't even have an expedition plan." Elena sighed in disappointment. Ash laughed softly before offering a comforting smile."Come on loved, don't be like that. You'll have an adventure soon enough." Ash said reassuringly.Elena looked at Ash before giving him a small smiled. "You may be right, if father accept the job, my team and I may have a long adventure." Elena said before remembering what region that adventure will take place. "All throughout Sinnoh." Elena added with a glimmer in her eyes.It only took Ash a split-second to realize the implications of what Elena said before exploding in happiness. "You mean, you actually mean, that you'll be in Sinnoh, in this region, for a long time because of that job." Ash asked with happiness and hope in his voice.Elena giggled at her lover's reaction but she answered nonetheless. "Yeah, if my father accept the job.""You do know that I could fly over there and 'persuade' (more like threaten) your father to accept the job." Ash offered as his eyes glowed bluish.Elena laughed uncomfortably before shaking her head into a no."I wouldn't mind you doing something like that but were going to have a lot to explain to my friends and my father." Elena said with a humorous tone."Yeah, I'm not really excited to explain to my friends why I'm secretly dating the most beautiful girl in this world, well not yet anyway." Ash said which cause Elena to blush because of Ash's compliment."So, where are you know and why are you so pissed off that you would destroy a training ground?" Elena asked shrugging off the blush on her face."I didn't destroy everything." Ash said in defense. Elena looked at him which said 'really, Ash'."Then why is there smoke coming from behind you." Elena asked as she pointed at the image behind Ash.Ash glanced behind him to see some smoking craters that he made during training. Ash sweat drop at the sight and hung his head in embarrassment. "I got carried away again." Ash sighed in embarrassment."You always get carried away love." Elena said humorously. Ash glance at her and sighed."Yeah, you're probably right. I'm in Twinleaf Town by the way." Elena perked up at the mention of that town."Twinleaf, why are you in the hometown of that Dawn girl."Elena asked in a curious manner with a minimum amount of jealousy."Yeah, her mother invited us for some festival that's happening in Twinleaf." Ash explained in a bored a manner.Elena thought for a moment before remembering something. "I remember now, every year there is a festival being held in that town. I also hear that there's going to be Pokémon tournament this year, hosted by the Frontier Brain, Tower Tycoon Palmer." Elena informed which caught Ash's attention."A tournament huh, and hosted by a Frontier Brain, interesting. Pikachu and I would love to battle him, especially that Pikachu have perfected magnetic manipulation." Ash exclaimed which Elena giggle."You're kidding me Ash, are you? You're actually going to battle seriously, for a change." Elena exclaimed with humor lacing her voice.Ash merely looked at Elena softly. "I promise you." Elena eyes were fixed to Ash after hearing that. "I promise you that I'll start battling seriously with the Pokémon who could actually hang with me and I always keep my promises, especially to you." Ash said with passion in every word.Elena looked at him briefly before smiling at Ash beautifully. "If I was with you right now, I would have probably kissed your brains out." Elena said with a mischievous glint on her eyes. "Or maybe I could finally show you what's under this robe." Elena then emphasize on what she said by slightly opening her robe, revealing some cleavage to Ash.Ash's entire face after seeing that view on her lover blush as he felt all the blood rush to his head. "Would you please not show me that, it's bad enough that I'm always dreaming of you 24/7, I don't want you adding dirty thoughts in my thoughts about you, I already have enough dirty thoughts about you." Ash stated while blushing intensely and extremely crimson.Elena blushed lightly and smirked deviously after hearing that, this is going to be fun for her. "Ah, My Ashura is thinking 'naughty' thoughts about me. Do those thoughts involve us being in bed together, in very intimate and very sexual positions?" Elena purred sexually, her eyes filled with lust.Ash's face was literally as red a tomato after seeing his lover act like that. Ash tried to say something but failed after what Elena said and do next."You know Ashy; I could fulfill those dreams of yours. Just say the word." Elena said with light blush and a seducing smile. To prove her point, she pulled her bath robe all the way to the lower part of her shoulder, almost revealing her luscious breast to Ash.Ash couldn't take any more and fainted with an intense blush on his face and also with a slight nose bleed.Elena giggled at her lover's reaction. "Work's every time." Elena said between her giggles.(Scene Change)At Dawn's house…. Things were pretty hectic.Dawn and Johanna were frantically cleaning the house like psycho, the reason why is very simple, in a matter of moment they will have a famous a famous Pokémon professor and his apprentice, a young and upcoming Pokémon professor, a young coordinator and her brother, and more importantly (for Dawn anyways) Ash's mother will be visiting their humble home and that is a very big deal for them. This visit is very important to both mother and daughter in their own way, for Johanna, she always dreamed in meeting the famous Professor Oak and for Dawn, she wanted to impress Ash's mother to show that she would be a perfect wife for her son, for Ash. That's why the two of them are going clean and groom their home to perfection.Brock on the other hand was stuck between a rock and a hard place. The reason why; simple, there are two Pokémons who are watching him like a hawk, ready to take him down with one wrong move or if he attempts to flirt to any women in the premises. This force Brock, with much effort in his part, to suppress his urge to 'express his love', which in turn made the house much more peaceful."Hey Dawn, would you please clean the balcony." Johanna yelled in the kitchen. She was currently cleaning the kitchen at the same time making some lunch."Sure Mom, I'm just about done cleaning here upstairs." Dawn replied as she polishes some furniture.Brock sighed once again, without Ash in the house and without him 'expressing his love' to the ladies, it was pretty much boring. "Why didn't I just accompany Ash when he decided to train in the forest, I could have spotted some girls and….." Brock didn't finish that sentence because of a Poison Jab hitting him in the gut and Stun Spore showering on him. Brock automatically dropped to the ground with a thud.'Why me?' Brock thought in agony as he gazed upon his Croagunk and Noelle's Bellossom glaring at him, daring him to move. Brock wisely lay in the ground motionless."Hey Brock, you still alive there." Dawn asked as she gazed upon her fallen friend.Brock whimpered in pain but Dawn took that as a yes. "Okay then Brock, if you need me I'll be upstairs in the balcony." Dawn said as she strolled upstairs, towards the balcony.'Why is she so gullible?' Brock wondered as attempted to stand up. Luckily for him Croagunk and Bellossom had left him to his own demise. When Brock was at his feet, the doorbell rang."Brock, would you get that." Both mother and daughter yelled at the same time."Yeah, sure." Brock replied as he stretch his limps to make sure it's moving. When it was all good, he walks towards the door and open it, receiving the shock of his life.When he opened the door, he saw his Professor Oak and his friends and pass traveling companions."Good morning Brock, so I take that we have the right house." Gary said, with that arrogant smirked plastered in his face.Brock can only think of one word after seeing them all.'Thank God.'(Scene Change)"Man things are pretty boring today." Elena groaned as she organizes some artifacts in the storing room. The storing room was a wide air conditioned room with a lot of space. A lot of artifacts w as scattered all over the room."You said it Elena, I wish you dad would take the job so we could at least get away from this place." A black haired teen said with a bored expression catalogue some valuable and important artifacts in the room."Let's just work, the sooner this is over the sooner we could have lunch." A blond boy said as he moved some rather big artifacts inside the storing room."Would you not think of food at this time, Michael, and would you please move those tablets on the far end of the room and compile them together with the other tablets." The black haired girl requested. The teen name Michael groaned in exhaustion.Michael was an eighteen year old boy. He has a blond hair that was cut in military style, brown eyes, and was medium build; he was also taller than Karen and Elena by at least five inches. He was a bit skinny but there were still some mussels present that show that he was a bit strong. He was a bit lazy but can do any task in a very fast and very efficient manner. He was an amazing artist, capable of making arts from scrap. He was bit greedy but not selfish. He was also a fun loving and a cheerful teen but short tempered."Could I at least rest for a while, Karen? I move these tablets from the tenth floor all the way down here and these tablets each weight a hundred and fifty pounds. I'm beat." Michael said panting for air.Karen was an eighteen year old girl. She has a long black hair that went all the way to her back, hazel eyes, and was very curvaceous as well as the same size as Elena. Her face was very soft and calm, which suits her beauty very well. She was very soft spoken and very calm but she will take every advantage the she sees or was offer to her, as long as that offer will benefit her and her friends.Karen looked at him and sighed, there was only one way to make him work now and she has to use it. Oh well, he is her boyfriend after all and, as her girlfriend, she has the job to keep him working when he becomes lazy, a job that she takes seriously.Karen approached her Michael and began caressing his cheeks, Michael automatically tensed and blush at his girlfriends touch. "Come on now, Mic. The sooner you're done with this, the sooner that we could make out."Karen whispered in a seducing tone.Michael, after hearing that, stood up and hastily but carefully moved the tablets towards the designated area, with a blush adorning his face.Karen watch as her boyfriend moved to finish the designated task. "Work's every time."Karen said with a smile.Elena groaned at that pathetic display that her friend Michael shown, which didn't go unnoticed by Karen. Karen looked at her and smirked. "Come Elena, if you have a boyfriend, you'll understand that you have the responsibility to keep him on his toes." Karen stated.Elena merely looked at her with uninterested expression before resuming her work. Karen chuckled at her friend reaction before walking towards her boyfriend, intending to give him his reward.After an hour, the three of them finished organizing and cataloging all the artifacts and proceeded to walk upstairs via elevator. They waited for a while for the elevator descend at that floor and after a full minute waiting for the elevator, the elevator door opened, revealing two identical and familiar faces and a pure white Lucario, whom flung herself towards Elena."Hey Koyuki, how's your check up." Elena asked as she embraced her 'daughter'. Koyuki looked at her with a dread expression. Elena got an idea on how her check went."My sister attempted to study your Aura again, didn't she?" Elena asked in a sigh. Koyuki merely nodded and shivered at the memory of her check.'Note to self, talk to Sarah about her boundaries in examining Koyuki.' Elena thought as she patted Koyuki's head. Elena then looked at Michael and Karen whom was in a conversation with the twins."So why are you two here, Tanya, Michelle." Michael asked."Well boss ordered us….." Tanya said."to call you all for a meeting of some…" Michelle continued."for something relatively important…" Michelle and Tanya finished at the same time.Michael groaned in exasperation. "I don't know what's worst, you two finishing each other's sentences or that childish grin plastered on your faces." Michael commented at the smiling twins.Tanya and Michelle are identical twin and were also one year older than Elena. The both have well developed bodies but not as well developed as Elena's and they are also smaller than Elena by at least an inch and a half, they also both have dark brown hair, and their faces were resembling a child, two years younger than there real age. The two of them look exactly like the same, the only thing to tell them apart are there eye color, Tanya has violet colored eyes while Michelle has black colored eyes. The two of them are very serious when it comes to their job but the two of them are very laid back when it comes to anything else. The two also have a knack to finish each other's sentences, much to the annoyance of their friends and fellow archeologist."So Mr. Henry is calling for us; I hope this meeting isn't troublesome." Karen flatly stated."Come on Karen, boss wouldn't call us for something useless." Michael said, defending his boss."What about two-in-a-half years ago, that meeting was the most useless meeting that I've took part off." Karen reminded with a mock glare on her boyfriend.Michael scratched his head remembering the specific meeting. "It was for a good cause." Michael reason lamely."WE FORCED OUR BEST ARCHEOLOGIST INTO A SIX MONTH BREAK." Karen yelled (anime style) at her boyfriend. Michael quickly back-off from his girlfriend. Elena looked at them with a bilweirded expression; she still can't believe that they remember that meeting which was the catalyst of her meeting Ash."I remember that." Tanya said all of the sudden"Yeah, it was probably the most chaotic six months of our lives." Michelle said joining the conversation."But at least." They both said at the same time as the two of them place embrace Elena like a child. "At least we have big sister back." The two of them said in unison. Elena chuckled uneasily at the two as they hugged her. Koyuki noticed that and quickly threw the twins inside the elevator."Thank Arceus, it's finally quiet." Karen said as she glanced at the twin lying to the ground, probably unconscious.(Scene Change)It was finally calm in Dawn's house. The two of them had finally settle down from cleaning after seeing their visitors arrive although the two of them were still clearly upset that their home was still not yet perfect for their visitors. Dawn had quickly approach May and Zoey, whom she had already met, and began with them conversation, trading some strategies in the process. Brock on the other hand, had quickly talked to Misty in what she have been doing with her life lately."Hey Misty it's nice to see you again." Brock said as he approached his former travelling companion."Same here Brock." Misty greeted with enthusiasm as she hugged her friend and former travelling companion.Misty had change physically during her three years in running the Cerulean gym. She has now developed a figure that could rival her sisters. She had also let her hair down; now her orange was now lying on her shoulder. She had also change her attire, instead of her usual tomboyish attire when she was still travelling with Ash, she now wore clothes that fit her new look and age which consist of an orange shirt with an insignia of the cascade badge imprinted on it, loosed jeans that are design for travelling, and a white jacket."So, how the gym doing?" Brock asked as he let go of the embrace, fearing the wrath of Croagunk.Misty merely gave Brock a proud smirked." Well, I'm proud to say that it has been going well at my care. There have been only a handful of trainers that had earned the Cascade Badge in the last three years when I became the gym leader." Misty stated with pride in her voice."Congrats then Misty, I know Ash would be thrill to have a battle with you if he heard that." Brock said humorously. At the mention of Ash, Misty quickly developed a light blush on her face but quickly shrugged it off. Also at the mention of Ash's name, Misty then notice something that has been obvious for a while now."Speaking of Ash, where is he?" Misty asked with a bit of excitement in her voice.'It has been two years since the last time I saw Ash, would he be surprise at my new look.' Misty thought with a light blush.Brock had notice the blush but didn't pay it much attention to it, he had already known that the four girls in the room right now has crush on Ash (whom was secretly taken by the way). Brock merely answered Misty's question, envying Ash's luck when it comes girls. "Ash went outside to train early in the morning, he still hasn't return."Misty seems to be taken back by that. "Ash training, are you sure? Are you even remotely positive that this is Ash, our Ash?" Misty asked in shocked, her littler tantrum had caught the attention of the three Pokémon Coordinators in the room."Believe it Misty; Ash had finally taken his Pokémon training seriously." Brock stated, proud at Ash's maturity.Misty, still in disbelief, chuckled. "I never thought I'll see the day that Ash will depend on his skills rather on his luck." Misty said, still in disbelief."That isn't so bad for Ash, Misty. He is probably the luckiest trainer alive." Brock said with a laughed. The two of them began laughing at how true that statement is.Unknown to the two gym leaders, the three coordinators approached them after seeing them laughed like that. May was the one whom got the attention of the two."Why are you two laughing like that?" May asked.May didn't change that much since she separated from Ash and Brock. She still was a bit scrawny but you could still tell that she has figure which could rival an ordinary fifteen year old girl. She still wore the same outfit that she wore when she first came to Sinnoh (you people could visualize that right)."It's nothing May, were just reminiscing our early journey's with Ash." Misty said, finally calming down from her laughter. She didn't notice the curious looked that Dawn and Zoey had on their faces."You mean the time when Ash is competing in Kanto, Orange Archipelago, and the Johto league." May asked with curiosity and enthusiasm lacing her voice."Yup, when Ash was still young and stupid." Brock said in a joking matter. That was probably the dumbest and the most suicidal thing to say at that moment because after finishing that sentence, he was met with four mallets slamming to his head, producing four large bump marks on his head. Brock was once again lying in the floor, with tears in his eyes."DON'T CALL ASH STUPID." The four girls yelled in unison. Brock whimpered at the mercy of the four girls. Misty, after they have calm down, have notice the presence of Dawn and Zoey."Hello there?" Misty greeted the two girls that were in front of her. Dawn and Zoey seem to take notice of the greeting and looked at Misty, with smiles on their faces."Hello there, it's a great pleasure to meet the Gym Leader of Cerulean City." Zoey said with glee as she extended her hand. Misty took it without hesitation and shook it cheerfully. "My name is Zoey by the way, I'm a Pokémon coordinator." Zoey introduced herself to Misty."It's a pleasure to meet you, Zoey." Misty said with a cheerful smile. Misty let go of Zoey's hand and glance at Dawn. Dawn, knowing the implication of that glance, introduced herself as well."Oh sorry for that, I haven't yet introduced myself. My name is Dawn and I'm also a Pokémon Coordinator as well as Ash's current travelling companion." Dawn said in a cheerful manner while emphasizing the 'current travelling companion' part. Dawn also offered her hand for a hand shake to Misty.Misty's eyes narrowed for a split second after hearing the she was Ash's current female companion but quickly regain her composure and shook Dawn's hand with enthusiasm and looked at her with a gleeful smile with a slight edge.'So this is Ash's current female companion. I'll admit that she looks cute but Ash won't be interested into someone who is five or four years younger than him.'Misty thought as she gaze upon the blue haired girl.'So this is the Misty I've been hearing from Ash and Brock. She seems to be quite tomboyish yet she is very pretty but I won't lose to her nor will I lose to May. They may have travelled with Ash longer than I have by I know than I'll win him over in the future.' Dawn thought with determination as she looked at Misty with a smile and a calculating gaze.May and Zoey had notice the slowly growing tension between the two and decided to break the tension before it even starts."Why are you so shock about Ash training, Misty?" Zoey asked breaking the slow building tension between Misty and Dawn.Misty then looked at Zoey and let go of Dawn hands. "Well, when Ash was still beginning his journey, he usually depends on his luck and not on his skills. He only seldom trains and his training isn't that great." Misty said remembering the times she travelled with Ash.Dawn and Zoey seems to be slightly shock about that info while May merely uninterested, already knowing that fact about Ash."You mean Ash actually told as the truth." Zoey suddenly stated."I think he did. I guess we owe Ash an apology." Dawn said sheepishly. That seems to catch May's attention."You guys owe Ash an apology, how so?" May asked with a bit of curiosity.Dawn and Zoey looked at May for a moment before answering."Well you see, when Ash won his seventh badge from my old friend, she asked Ash if he was always that skillful when it come to battling." Zoey exclaimed, catching the attention of Misty in the process."Ash said to her that he was not that good at the beginning, that some of his badges were given to him without a battle but merely as a sign of thanks for his help." Dawn finished Zoey's explanation."We didn't believe Ash when he said that; because come on, his an amazing trainer and a good strategies. It's hard to believe that some of those badges that he have are not earned." Zoey added which cause Misty to giggle a bit."So Ash actually mature all this years, it's a pity that I miss it." Misty stated in a whispered.The three girls looked at Misty and was about to asked a question when Johanna, Delia, Professor Oak, Gary, and Max entered the living room."Hey sis, what are you guys talking about?" Max asked as he sat down on the couch.Max was a bit different compare to the person Ash traveled with. He had grown a two feet but still the smallest among the group. He still wore the glasses but wore different clothes. He now wore a white shirt and a green jacket, and black shorts. He was still not an official trainer but he only needs one more year before becoming an official trainer."Just reminiscing about our journeys with Ash." May answered his brother's question."Did you mentioned the time when Ash almost give us a heart attack because you decided to…." Max didn't finished his sentence when May hit him right on the head with her fist."We agree not to talk about that, ever again, remember." May reminded with a harsh tone."Sheesh, chill sis." Max said as he rub his head. May glared at her brother for a while before looking away from him with a grunt. The people in the living sweat drop a bit at the interaction of the two siblings."Are you kids' hungry? I and Delia have made some treats if you kids want." Johanna then offered some treats to the group. The group of teen accepted the treat wholeheartedly."Thanks Miss, Hikari." The group said in unison as they feast upon the treats that were offered to them."Oh don't thank me, Delia deserved much of the praise. She was whom cook most of it." Johanna said with humility. Delia would have none of that."Don't be like that Johanna, it is your recipe." Delia said with a laugh as she made some hand motions. After that, the mothers began a conversation."Looks like Delia had earned herself a new friend." Professor Oak mused."What do you expects gramps, she is Ash's mother." Gary said as he ate some treats. "Speaking of Ash, where is he? I haven't seen him since we arrive.""Ash went out for his training early in the morning. He'll be back before lunch." Brock answered."Ash actually training, it looks like Ashy boy is taking his career much more seriously now." Gary said jokingly.The doorbell rang as Gary finished his statement. The people in room knew that it was probably Ash, which was probably the reason why the girls in the room were racing towards the door but sadly Noelle beat them to the door."I'll get it." Noelle announced which cause the girls in living room to groan in disappointment. The boys and women in the room merely chuckled at the girls' misfortune while Brock sulked at his friend fortune in girls.Noelle giggled at the girls' gullible reaction for a bit. "The Ash boy must be something special to gain such admirers." Noelle said in barely a whispered and she then opened the door, what she saw cause her to blush from head to toe. In front of her was Ash and his Pikachu but the thing made her blush furiously was because Ash was only wearing a jacket that reveals his tattered clothes and more importantly his luscious and well build body. She never would have thought that someone like Ash would have that sexy and muscled up body. She didn't notice her Bellossom positioning herself near her, just in case Ash does something inappropriate to her."Hey Noelle, sorry I'm late. I didn't notice the time when I'm training." Ash said as he apologized for his tardiness while rubbing the back of his head with his right hand, Pikachu as well mimics the movement of his trainer. Ash unknowingly shows off more of his body to Noelle causing her to blush even more."Wwweellle yyyooouu ssseeee, NNNNNoooooo." Noelle was shuttering and couldn't formed anymore words because of the sight of Ash's bare body was making it hard for her to speak.Ash merely smiled at her, causing her to blush some more, and walked pass her while muttering the word, "Excuse me," Noelle then collapse on her knees and release the breathe that she was unknowingly holding.'Ash is hot.' Noelle thought with an intense blush."Hey, Pikachu, do you know why is Noelle blushing?" Ash asked his faithful companion. Pikachu merely shook his head at the naivety of his 'brother'.'(He could instantly notice why Elena is blushing and knows the reason why but when it comes to other girls, he is still totally clueless. I'm beginning to think that Elena is some kind of saint).' Pikachu thought as he gazed at his clueless trainer."Hey Ash, you're quite late, what have you been doing in the….." Brock stopped in mid sentence after Ash. "What the hell happened to you?" Brock asked after seeing Ash's clothes burned clothes."Sorry Brock, I got hit by one of Pikachu's Thunderbolt attack and my clothes didn't have much luck." Ash said sheepishly while rubbing the back of his head."Don't tell me that you walk to the forest all the way here while wearing the jacket." Brock said skeptically. Ash rubbed his head sheepishly while Pikachu shook his head, remembering all those lustful stares that Ash was receiving, mostly by girls, as they make their way to Dawn's house.Brock was about to say something but was interrupted by a familiar voice. "Hey Brock, is that Ash?" That familiar voice asked inside the living room.Ash seems to brighten a bit after hearing that voice. "Misty, is that you?" Ash asked in an excited voice."ASH…" Misty yelled from the living room. Ash heard a couple of loud rumbling sounds which signify some chaos happening in the living room. After a minute of rumbling in the living room, Mrs. Ketchum emerged from the living room and hurriedly and excitedly embraced her son."Ash, how are you doing? What have you been doing? Have you been eating properly? Have you been changing your 'you-know-what' everyday?" Mrs., Ketchum threw a barraged of question to his son, some of the questions were very awkward for Ash, and didn't even notice that her son was half naked."Hey mom, I'm fine." Ash said awkwardly as he returned the embraced of her mother. The rest of the group seems to be watching the moment between mother and son and can't help but smile or snicker at the scene.Ash seemed to notice the snickering and looked at the people behind his mother; he smiled seeing his old friend and his old travelling companions."Hey guys, how are you doing?" Ash greeted them with a smile.The group looked at Ash's intoxicating smile (for the girls anyway) and returned it with their own cheerful smiles."Hey mom could you let go already. I need a shower and to change my clothes, I pretty much stink." Ash said as he felt the embrace was getting to awkward for his liking. Miss Ketchum then release her son ,with great difficulty, and glance at him, only to notice that he was half naked."Ash-honey, why are you half naked?" Delia asked with a sharp tone. The group seems to look at Ash and, as Miss Ketchum putted, Ash is half naked, showing off his very well muscular and very sexy body."Sorry Mom, I was training and I was hit by one of Pikachu's thunderbolt attacks, burning my clothes." Ash explained with a goofy smiled, oblivious to the intense blush and lustful stares that he was receiving from his female friends."Are you okay then dear?" Mrs. Ketchum asked in a worried tone, changing from stern to worry in a split second."I'm okay Mom. I used to it really." Ash said as he removed the jacket that was covering his naked body and throwing it to the side. Without that jacket, Ash is now showing his bare upper body to the world.Ash's female friends were now openly drooling at Ash's body. With Ash's usual attire it was hard to see Ash's muscles, more specifically his four pack abs, his large biceps, his muscular chest, and his broad shoulders. They knew that Ash was handsome before but now they knew that he was also hot."Do you still have some extra clothes, honey?" Mrs., Ketchum asked with a concern."I still have a dozen extra mom." Ash assured as he walked pass her. "I'll be taking a shower now mom. Mrs., Hikari, can I use your shower?" Ash asked."Sure Ash, it's the room next to Dawn' room." Johanna said as she suppressed her laughter from the reaction of the young girls in the room."Thanks Mrs. Hikari." Ash said as he run upstairs but not before smiling at his friends and saying. "I'll talk to you guys later." Ash then proceeded to dash upstairs as Pikachu hanged on his 'brothers' shoulder, he as well needed a bath.There was a bit of silent when Ash made it upstairs but was broken by Dawn with one statement."Ash is hot." Dawn stated with an intense blush on her face. The four girls merely nodded in agreement with matching blushes. The boys and the mothers laughed at girls reaction.(Scene Change)Elena and her friends made their way towards the meeting hall as hastily as possible because they were late, very late."Why did we stop in the girl's bathroom again?" Michael asked in frustration."Because I and Tanya needed to fix our hair, Koyuki pretty much ruined it when she threw us in the elevator." Michelle stated flatly as she flung her long hair in the air."And it took you guys forty five minutes to fix your hair." Karen asked as she looked at them, clearly irate."You can't rush perfection, Karen." Tanya said with a wink. Karen had to remind herself that they were late in a meeting in order for her to not clobber the twins."Guys calm down, were practically going to be late so we should at least take our time." Elena said calmly as she walked beside Koyuki. Koyuki nodded in what her 'mother' said."We don't want to lose our job, Elena. Because unlike you, our father doesn't own the company that we are working in." Michael said as he made a run for it. He didn't notice the large man that appeared in one of the corridors, thus resulting into a collision. Michael fell to the ground with a thud while the large man merely looked at Michael with a passive look."You okay Mic?" The large man asked as he helped Michael up his feet."Yeah, sorry for that Neil, I'm kinda in a hurry." Michael said as he looked at Neil.Neil was a very tall person, at the height of six feet and five inches. His skin was tan and rough, signifying that he enjoys taking a tan. He is a muscular and extremely tall man and appears to be much older than he actually is. He doesn't talk much and when he does talk, it was purely business. He has a strong sense of justice and would do things that he deems the right thing. He was Sarah, Jane, and Elena's childhood and friend and to him, those three were like sisters to him. He would protect those three with his life. He was also Karen's older brother and was overprotective of her. He was also the apprentice of the head and only mechanic in the company.Neil looked at Michael and then looked at the person behind him only to see Elena, the twins and his biological sister, Karen, rushing towards the two. "Hey bro, sorry that my boyfriend smash into you." Karen said apologizing to her brother.Neil looked at his sister with a calculative dazed before throwing Michael over his shoulder and then kneeling down to his sister. Karen knowing the implication, sat at her big brothers shoulder making herself comfortable. Neil then stood up and dash towards the meeting hall with unbelievable speed, that only thing that could be heard was Michael's scream of terror.The three girls and Koyuki glance at where Neil where, which was signifies by a trail of smoke."You know, my dear sister, I'm envious." Michelle said to her sister."I know what you mean, sister of mine. I wish as well that we have an overly strong brother to carry us around like that." Tanya said with a wishful tone."If only mama and papa have another child." The two of them said in unison."Or you guys could at least have a 'daughter' that could use aura." Elena said out of the blues. The twin then looked at Elena, only to see that she was now being carried by Koyuki, piggyback style. Before any of them could say something, Koyuki dash away with tremendous speed, leaving the twins behind.It only took a second for Koyuki to disappear from sight and two seconds for the twins to realize the implication of the situations. "WHAT ABOUT US?" The twins shouted at the same time, realizing that they are alone.(Scene Change)Koyuki arrive at the meeting hall in mere minutes while carrying her 'mother' at her back. When they arrive outside of the meeting hall, Koyuki guide her 'mother' gently down the floor. Elena then patted Koyuki's head and giving her a quick hug before opening the door. At the sight of the door, Elena smiled to see his father, Natasha, her sister, her father's apprentice, Justin, and her second father, Adan, waiting for them in the meeting hall, looks like things is about to get interesting.She has no idea, for faith has made her move. Faith would now ensure the She and Ash would be together forever and their secrets will be reveal for their sake. Faith was always at their side and now, faith will make their lives much easier. The only question now, is when will faith finish her grand plan for the prince and his angel?(Scene Change)In an unknown location, a blue haired man gazing upon the horizon, plotting his next move."Did they take the job, Saturn?" The blue haired man asked with authority in voice."Yes sir, they send us confirmation that they will take the job." Saturn answered with utmost respect."Perfect, our job knows just gotten much more easier. Our goals are now easier to accomplish." The blue haired man said with a grin."If I may sir, why do we need those archeologist, sir? We have enough information and knowledge to make our plans a success." Saturn asked with a bow.The blue haired looked at his commander with a cold gaze. "Saturn, my dear commander, I take my plans very seriously and our knowledge is not yet sufficient for our plans to succeed." The blue haired man said with harsh tone. Saturn recoiled in fear because of the leaders voice.The blue haired man seems to take notice at his commander's fear and smirked before glancing towards the horizon once more. "Do not fear Saturn, the knowledge that will make our plans a reality will be provided by an old friend of mine, I do hope that my old friend, Henry Koshi, had not yet lose his touch and if he does, I know Natasha and Adan have not yet lose their touch in gaining knowledge that is very sufficient." The blue haired man as he gazed upon a picture that contains him and his four former friends.Oh yes, his plans will become a reality, sooner or later
