My dearest

           FESTIVAL OF LOVE PART IV-      INHERITING THE POWER OF THE FATHER: ASH KETCHUM'S ELITES AND ASH KETCHUM'S TRUE BATTLE STYLE

Ash slowly opened his eyes; he had just woken up to a wonderful sleep. He attempted to sit up but instantly felt that there was an extra weight on his chest, when he glanced at his chest, he smiled seeing Elena cuddled over his chest, sleeping peacefully with a peaceful smile. Ash sighed in relief as he scanned her hotel room, he thank Arceus that no one had discovered them sleeping in the same bed while he was shirtless and while she was wearing that kind of clothing. Ash scanned the room, trying hard not to disturb his Goddess; he looked at the door to see

Koyuki and Pikachu sleeping at the front of the door, barricading it, he smiled at how those two often help them kept their relationship a secret, he then glance at the window to see outside, he quickly notice that it was still night time, so he glance at the small clock to see the time, the time was 5:45AM.'So I slept for six hours.' Ash thought before glancing at the Goddess beside him.Ash smiled as he glance at her beautiful face before caressing it with one of his hands, tracing and memorizing every detail of her beautiful face. He then glanced at her body and blush heavily, he still can't believe that she wore something like that while they were sleeping; she was currently wearing a very revealing and very sexy white nightgown, the nightgown perfectly fitS her, showing off all her curves, and the silk was so transparent that he could see her undergarments that she wore under her nightgown. He blush furiously once again, remembering how seductive she was last night, he thank Arceus for giving him a will of steel because if he hasn't, well let's just say that the two of them will still be awake, doing things that would make an X-rated movie looked like church.Ash chuckled bitterly and humorously after remembering how their date ended and how she insisted for them to sleep together in her hotel room.(Flashback)Six people were currently sat around on the grass field beside a beautiful lake and above the moon. Four of them were uncomfortably sited thanks to the glare coming Ash and Koyuki, Elena, who was being held by Ash rather protectively, and Pikachu sighed, if the people in front of them play their cards wrong, well let's just say they'll be having an early grave. Elena, after recovering from the shock that Ash was the nephew of her father figure, talk to Ash to not hurt them. Ash complied, albeit grudgingly, and now they are now sitting in a circle, tension in the air.Elena seeing the tension in the air, decided to at least lighten the mood a bit. "Ash, could we eat now." Elena asked sweetly.Ash looked at her and smile before taking a crystal from his pocket. "You four, move a bit. You're going to eat with us." Ash stated with a sharp tone as he threw the crystal towards the center before throwing an Aura Sphere. Gary and Brock, knowing the destructive power of that Aura Sphere quickly jumped away, while Adan and Natasha merely back away a couple of inches. When the Aura Sphere contacted with the crystal, the crystal expanded into a large lotus flower."Well, what are you peopling doing? Enter so we can eat, don't make Elena wait." Ash ordered coldly. Elena shook his head in embarrassment; she could have sworn she heard Natasha giggled."You know, I don't know whether I should be afraid or I should be happy. We're going to have a picnic with Elena and her boyfriend, which happened to be your nephew and an Aura Guardian." Natasha said with a giggle."Just don't do anything stupid. I think Ash is on the verge of killing us." Adan stated uneasily, seeing how powerful his nephew made him a bit nervous and scared."Don't tell say that to me, say that to those kids over there." Natasha said as she pointed at Gary and Brock who has astonished and shocked expression on their faces. "Those two will literally say something that would cause your nephew to snap." Natasha then entered inside the large crystal lotus.Adan looked behind them to see both boys. "Gary, do you still remember me?" Adan asked.Gary, snapping out from his shock, nodded. Adan was the person who was hard to forget. "How can I forget you? You taught me and Ash how to fight when we were four." Gary replied with a slight grin.Adan smiled, he was glad that he had left an impression. "Good then please talk to that friend of yours to be modest at this little picnic, I don't want to die." Adan stated as he entered the large lotus flower.Gary nodded and looked at Brock. "Brock..." Gary called out."I know." Brock merely replied. This night was the craziest night in his life.The two of them then entered the large crystal lotus, what they saw amazed them. The crystal lotus was like a large table and at the middle of it was a round table filled with different kinds of foods, hot out of the oven. This table was probably the most expensive table in the world, and it was made by a small crystal."Let's eat people." Ash stated as he picked up two plates and put some food on it. The group nodded and sat down but before they could pick up some plates, Ash spoke. "Firsts things firsts, Koyuki, please remove those necklaces that they are wearing." Ash commanded.With one fell swoop, Koyuki used Extreme Speed with such fines, that she took the necklace that the four of them were without disturbing the table or actually hurting them. She then appeared beside Ash and gave him the four necklaces. Ash looked at it and sighed. "I really don't know how you got this but next time that I found any of you wearing this, I'll bash your heads painfully." Ash stated as he crush the four necklace with his bare hands. "Now we could eat." Ash said as he feed Elena a piece of salad. Elena seemed to expect Ash's action because she just shrugged it off and ate the piece of salad that Ash fed her.The four of them gulped before taking some plates and putting some food on it, this will truly be an interesting picnic.(After twenty minutes) (I am not going to explained how they ate).After devouring the food in front of them, both Gary and Brock still in shock that Ash could cook so damn well (Brock made a mental note to asked the recipes from Ash), the six people were now sited quietly while Ash and Elena whispered quietly to each other."Are you sure?" Ash asked with a bit uncertainty in is tone of voice. The four people raised an eyebrow at that."They already found out anyway, we could at least answer some of their questions." Elena remarked as she looked at the four people in front of them.The four of them looked confused for a moment but Ash then looked at them. "If you guys want to ask questions, ask them now. Please limit them." Ash said lowly.The four seemed to be shock at that but Adan decided to capitalized upon the opportunity. "When did you guys started dating?" Adan asked with enthusiasm and curiosity.Ash and Elena sighed at that question, they've expected that. "After the Hoenn League. The two of us have been frequently and secretly meeting after we met by accident after me, Brock, and Misty separated after my journey through Johto ended." Ash answered with a smiled, reminiscing the first time they met."So you guys met after we separated, how did that happen?" Brock asked, now remembering how the group first separated.Ash and Elena chuckled at that. "We have those Dragonites and that storm to thank for our first meeting." Elena said with a chuckled."Yeah, I never thought I'll meet the love of my life while fending off a herd of Dragonites." Ash said with a laugh.Gary and Natasha laughed at that, the two of them were curious but they don't want to know what Ash did to those Dragonites. "Okay I'll ask for details later." Natasha said as she looked at the couple. "Why did you two kept this a secret? The two of you do know that your relationship would be much easier if your friends and family know about it." Natasha inquired.Both Ash and Elena looked at Natasha skeptically. "Let me asked you a question, Tasha. If I say to my father and to the others that I'm dating someone that they don't even know existed, the others would make an annoying fuss about it and my father and sisters will probably make my and Ash lives miserable. I can't put Ash in that scenario." Elena exclaimed passionately.Ash held Elena protectively as he laid her head on his chest. "The two of us agreed to keep our relationship a secret until we both have the decency to tell our friends and family in our terms. We always met twice a month for two days, so that would explained my disappearance every month during the Battle Frontier and during here in Sinnoh, that would also explain why Elena always take a break during her job." Ash further explained."You know, in our line of work in the company, we have two weeks break." Natasha stated as she looked at how Ash held Elena."I know but if she stays with me for more than two days, I promise you, you wouldn't see her in Arceus knows when." Ash stated with a serious tone.Natasha nodded and smile, the boy was a passionate as his father. "You know Ash, you remind me of your father. He was as passionate as you." Natasha said softly."You know my father?" Ash asked in shocked.Before Natasha could answer, Adan interrupted her. "Yeah, we know him. He is my best friend after all and he is married to my sister." Adan stated which caused Brock to gasped in shock."You and Ash are related?" Brock suddenly asked. Gary slapped his forehead, he wasn't even listening."Yeah, his my uncle." Ash answered calmly. "I hadn't seen you for ten years but I gave you my thanks." Ash said sincerely as he bowed at his uncle. "Thank you for taking care of Elena when she was a child."Adan was taken back at that but just smiled and waved his hand. "Don't thank me, I promise their mother to take care of her and her sisters. Their father was worthless after all." Adan said with a smile."I still can't believe that my two favorite men are related, and you two didn't even tell me." Elena said in disbelief.Ash hurriedly apologizes. "Sorry but when you first mentioned him to me, I wasn't sure if he was really my long-lost uncle, sorry for not telling you." Ash said in apology."Not to worry, at least you don't have to ask him his blessing in the near future." Elena said as she dismissed that fact."Okay, moving on. When did you become an Aura Guardian, Ash?" Gary asked all of the sudden.Ash expression quickly turned serious. "I can't answer that question. All I can tell you is that I began my training when we visited Cameran Palace, end of story." Ash said in a voice that does not leave anymore conversation.Gary nodded in understanding but there was still one question looming in his mind. "Why did you become an Aura Guardian in the first place? Having this much power isn't like you, Ash." Gary inquired. He was probably the only one there who knew Ash for the longest, and with that said, he knew that Ash wasn't interested in power.Ash chuckled bitterly at that which caused Elena to glare harshly at Gary. Gary was unnerved at that glared and quickly changed his posture so that he could easily run if things get bad."You asked me the reason why I trained to use Aura, the answer is simple, my answer is the person I'm holding right now." Ash said as he tightened his grip on Elena. "I became an Aura Practitioner because I want to have the power to protect Elena when the time comes.""You would go that far to protect her, even if your push into dangerous situation. You are aware on the responsibilities that an Aura Guardian is given by the legendaries." Adan inquired with worry. Being an archaeologist, he knew what kind of jobs an Aura Guardian does; they are in charge in keeping balance in the world between humans and Pokémons. That is one of the reasons why they are practically extinct."I've been doing that stuff even before I started training, just asked anyone I traveled with." Ash then pointed at Brock. "Ask him or Elena, Brock knows because his the person who had traveled with me for the longest time and I already showed Elena what I've been through in my journeys." Ash explained.The three people their looked at Brock, Brock merely nodded his head. "Ash and me had saw practically all the Legendary Pokémons. Ash also helped them with whatever problems they had, that also caused him to be on deaths doors a dozen of times." Brock stated solemnly. After that, the three of them looked at Ash, who was currently caressing Elena's hair and whispering something to her to calm her down."No more questions okay, I'll answer all your question when everybody knows our secret but for now, that will be enough." Ash exclaimed which all of them nodded. "I would also ask all of you to keep whatever you saw tonight a secret, if not, then I will kill you right here and now and I am not kidding. I would kill anyone who would either harm Elena or would even dare attempt to break as up, friend or foe, I don't care I will kill them." Ash threatened with a dangerous glint in his eyes.The four of them nodded once more, the two of them were important to them and would not dare harm their relationship especially now that they know that they literally love each other. That and they don' want to die.Adan thought had one more thing in his mind that he wanted to share to them; the two of them have the right to know. "Ash, you asked Natasha how she knew your father, right?" Ash nodded. "Sit back then, I'm about to tell you two something that you guys would never believe. The connection between Elena's parent and yours." Adan stated solemnly.Ash and Elena raised an eyebrow at that, a connection between their families, it was unheard of. They then looked at Natasha who instantly looked away at their gaze. This had now caught their attention. Gary and Brock on the other hand were curious as well."Tell us." Ash requested.Adan smiled sadly. "This may take a while." Adan stated with a stoic tone.(End of Flashback)Ash shook his head; he never wanted to remember that ever again. His mother and Elena's father use to have a relationship just like theirs, it was unreal. What's more is that their relationship only lasted a year before Elena's father, this Henry person, broke his mother's heart. What's more is that his uncle, told him that was the reason why his mother never loved his father because he never had gotten over that relationship. He was so furious that he almost unleashed his Aura but was stopped when Elena held his hand.Ash then put his hand on his head, remembering how that scenario ended.(Flashback)The air between the six of them was full of tension. What they heard just know was just shocking. If what they heard is correct, then Ash and Elena's parents have a strange connection, similar to theirs and it was unreal and disturbing. Ash and Elena were both shocked at this news."Now that I told you about this, what now?" Adan asked seriously. "You two have kept this relationship longer than both of Delia and Henry had but how long do you thing you can kept this relationship strong. I don't want to repeat that incident all those years ago nor I want another relationship to end up like that of my sister and my former friend, that relationship was a total failure." Adan stated with fear and sadness in his tone.Elena's expression looked unsure. Are they just repeating the tragedy that happened to their parent's years ago? Is this relationship just a way for history to repeat itself cruelly? Is fate just playing with them in some sort of cruel way? Many questions ran through her that she didn't notice that tears were starting to fall from her eyes. Elena, for the first time, was doubtful of her relationship with Ash.She then suddenly felt warm when Ash suddenly embraced her from behind. She could literally fell the passion and love that Ash was giving her in that embraced. She then heard Ash laughed softly and sobbingly."Don't compare us to them." Ash exclaimed with a laughed, a bit of tears falling from his eyes. He then looked at Elena with a loving smiled before wiping her tears from her eyes. "I met a lot of girls, in my journey but no one could compare to her, she just one of a kind. I love her, I truly and deeply love her, I don't want a life without her, I can't imagine a life without her, and I sure hell won't let go of her. I need her too much for that to happen." Ash stated sincerely and passionately. The rest was quite moved at that proclamation, even Elena was moved by that. Brock and Koyuki on the other hand was literally crying a waterfall."The day I fell in love with her, the day I confess to her, the day we started this relationship, is the day she became my dream, my life, and my world."Ash then took a deep breath before continuing. "I'm not Elena's father and Elena is damn sure not my mother, we are way stronger than them. I don't know what will happen to the two of us in the near future but I'm sure of one thing, I will marry Elena. I will marry her and we will have a life and a family together and no one, not even Arceus herself could ruin that." Ash added with intensity is his tone.That was the last straw. Brock and Koyuki literally broke down in tears as the two of them flooded the lotus table with tears, Gary was even crying but attempted to hide it from Ash, Natasha was torn from either squealing like a school girl or from crying hysterically, Adan on the other hand had a wide grin on his face."Should we start planning a wedding then, I already bought my tuxedo." Adan said humorously as he wiped a tear of happiness from his eyes. 'Note to self, by some tuxedos.' Adan added in his thoughts."Wait until I gave her an engagement ring." Ash said with a chuckled yet with a hint of seriousness.Elena felt like an idiot now, how could she doubt the one she love? She was sure that Ash would go to hell and back just to be with her, technically he had proven that already (I tell that story in future chapters). He remained loyal to her even though they were mostly apart. He treated her like a Goddess in every opportunity he gets, a treatment that she doesn't deserve. She was a fool to doubt their relationship in that moment.Elena wiped her tears and embraced Ash tightly while laying her head on his shoulder. "Take me flying." Elena begged silently.Ash smile brightly at that before taking out a Poke-ball from his pocket. "Picnic and quality time is over, Brock, Gary, cover for me okay." Gray and Brock, who was still crying a waterfall, nodded. "Uncle, Natasha, cover for Elena, the two of us will be gone for a while." Both of them nodded, already formulating a lie. "We should have a picnic like this in the future, a picnic where I wouldn't threaten you people with an Aura moved." The four of them nodded in unison at that. Ash then laid one of his hands on the crystal lotus before taking the Aura which he gave the crystal to be sucked back to him, turning the lotus back into a crystal shard. It amazed everyone who still doesn't know how powerful Ash is.Ash then stood up while carrying Elena bridal style and as Elena held on to him like dear life, he then threw a Poke-ball in the air, and with a flash, it unleashed his Charizard. "Charizard, please carry Koyuki and Pikachu on your back and try to keep up." Ash commanded. Charizard grin, this would prove interesting. He quickly picked up Koyuki and Pikachu before flying in the air, getting a head start."Are you supposed to take Elena flying, why did you Charizard fly without you?" Brock asked as he wiped the tears from his eyes."I'm taking her flying but I'm not going to use any of my Pokémons. She's referring to this kind of flying." Ash, with a grunt, let out a pair of elegant sky blue wings from his back, shocking everyone in the process. "I'll fly with her using my very own wings." Ash said as he extended his wings to their full wing span, ten feet."I need to get drunk, really, really drunk." Adan stated with a disbelieving tone."WHAT THE HELL?" Brock and Gary shouted in unison. They just watch their friend sprout some wings."YOU'RE AN AURA PRINCE? I THOUGHT THEY WERE ONLY MYTHS." Natasha exclaimed in shock."HIS A WHAT NOW?" Gary and Brock shouted in unison once again.Elena giggled at Ash's chest; she could already pictured the looks on their faces, while Ash merely grunted. "You," Ash said pointing towards Natasha. "Explained to them what an Aura Prince is. I don't want to explained that to them." With that said he took flight with Elena in his arms.(End of Flashback)Ash let out a soft chuckled at that. Those two would certainly ask more question later. He then looked at Elena one more time as she cuddled closer. As much as he wanted to be in this position for a while longer, he decided that it was probably time for him to go home, he knew that his mother was worried about him, he was also feeling a bit nervous, if someone see them in this position while wearing this type of clothing, let just say it will be pandemonium.Ash tried to removed himself from her but Elena quickly held him closer to her. "One more hour, Ash." Elena said with a sleepy tone.Ash chuckled softly at that. "As much as I want to, I need to go to the house that I'm staying in. My mother and friends are worried about me for sure." Ash said with a soft chuckle."Don't care, sleep some more." Elena said groggily.Ash sighed, this was not going anywhere. "Come on Elena, you know how much I want to stay like this with you but what if someone see us like this, this may ruin their view on you." Ash said trying to reason."Don't care." Elena said softly as she cuddled closer to him.Ash sighed once again. "Come on Elena, you know my mother would throw a fit if I'm not home this morning." Ash once again reasoned."So what?" Elena once again said as she opened one of her eyes to look at him."Come on Elena, I have to take a shower in the next five minutes before I live." Ash whined with a cute pout.Elena looked at Ash with a mischievous glint on her eyes, a glint which Ash's miss. "Okay." Elena merely exclaimed as she shifted her position so that her head would not be on Ash's chest."Thanks." Ash said as he stood up and head towards the shower room."No, thank you." Elena whispered mischievously.(Scene Change)Ash let out a sigh of relief as the hot water touched his body. It was the thing he needs after a great date and an emotional night, all in the same night. As Ash enjoyed his time on the shower, he didn't hear the door being carefully opened and the shower curtains softly opening and softly closing.Ash turned off the shower and reached towards a bar of soap when he noticed that there wasn't any. "Huh, I could have sworn I put a bar of soap here before I started my shower." Ash stated in confusion as he looked around for the bar of soap."Are you looking for this Ashy?" A familiar voice asked in a sing-song manner.Ash froze at that all too familiar voice. "I dare not look behind me." Ash exclaimed in mock-agony and with a light blush as his body turned around unconsciously. What he saw will forever be imprinted in his mind, in front of him was his beloved lover, naked, showing off her unbelievably sexy body to him. Ash unconsciously surveyed her body, to her smooth legs, her curvy hips, and her…..he quickly covered his eyes after his eyes landed on her chest area."Do you want me to rape you or something?" Ash asked skeptically as he attempted to cover his eyes and to suppress a nosebleed, his face was completely red.Elena chuckled as she eyed Ash's body lustfully. She already knew that Ash was in shape but now, she just wanted to ravage him right here right now. With his six-pack abs, his lean chest, his broad shoulders, his muscular arms, and his large (you know what I mean)… she lick her lips lustfully as she starred at 'Ash junior'. She then laid her hands on his chest, tracing it teasingly with her fingers.Elena then leaned upward and nibble on Ash's ear, causing Ash to blush some more. "You don't have to worry about that, you should worry about me wanting to ravish you." Elena whispered seductively as she reached for the shower handle, turning on the shower once again.The bathroom was once again filled with steam, covering every inch of the bathroom.Ash planned his shower to merely last for ten minutes but with Elena with him, doing things that can't be described by words (I can't described it in the current rating but I'll described in the futures chapters, in a flashback, wait for it), the shower lasted for an hour and a half.(P.S. THEY DID NOT HAVE SEX YOU BLOODY PERVERTS. THERE WILL BE A TIME FOR THAT IN THE FUTURE CHAPTERS).(SCENE CHANGE)"That was the most relaxing shower I ever had." Elena exclaimed as she dressed herself with a tight t-shirt, jeans, and a jacket to cover her upper body, Ash was the only one who have the right and the privilege to see her figure and body."Next time that we take a shower together, please don't do those things. I was so close in raping you." Ash exclaimed in anxiety.Elena giggled at that. "Okay then, next time I'll just give you a strip dance while massaging your body with soup." Elena said seductively and slyly between her giggles.Ash let out a groan of mild frustration as his faces once again blush furiously, he was going to have long chat with his uncle on the things he taught Elena and was going to beat the shit out of him for teaching her how to be so good in seducing.Ash then walked towards her and kissed her tenderly in the lips which Elena returned full heartedly, they been through a lot last night and this kiss soothed them both, reassuring the two of them of their future together.After a minute of kissing, Ash and Elena pulled back. Ash then gently caressed Elena cheeks with his hand which caused Elena to takes Ash's with her two hands and gently pressed it on her cheeks as she gently rub her cheeks to his tender hand. "This reminds me on the first time we slept together in the same bed. I regretted living you alone in that bed." Elena said as she remembered the first time they slept on the same bed together."Don't remind me, I've never cried more than on that day." Ash said bitterly. "But its okay, I forgave you because now, you never leave my side anymore." Ash exclaimed with a chuckled."Yeah I will never do that again." Elena said with a giggle.With that said, Ash embraced her quickly and lightly before picking the still sleeping Pikachu and jumping off towards the window but not without saying a few more words to Elena. "I'll see you later." Ash said as sprout his wings and flew off, with Pikachu still sleeping on his shoulders."Most definitely." Elena whispered under her breath.(SCENE CHANGE)Brock and Gary groaned once again for seemingly the hundred times this morning. The two of them were currently being interrogated by the girls because they came home without Ash last night. They sighed in unison again; they promised Ash that they would keep his secret a secret and that is what they're going to do, for the sake of Ash and Elena's love and their friendship to Ash.That, and Ash will go all Aura Prince on them, killing and erasing them from existence. They shudder at that remembering how Natasha described an Aura Prince.'A being of power capable of destroying anything on its path.' The voice of Natasha echoed into their minds. They shudder once again after remembering that.Their thoughts were snapped back into reality when a loud smacking sound came in contact with a table. Their heads snapped and was met by a sight of a clearly irate Misty. "What did you guys did during that all boys outing?" Misty asked in a growled."I told you last night, this morning, and I'm going to tell you now. We roamed aimlessly around the town, seeing some sights, eating some food, moderately drinking some wine, and pulling Brock off some ladies," That earned Brock a light whacked on the head by Max and earned Gary a glare from Brock. "And Ash just said that he'll go for a mid-night walk with Pikachu and not expect him to go back here because he was going to train his Pokémons." Gary said in frustration, he was getting tired in repeating the same lie over and over again. He then once again thanked the acting classes that he and Ash took when they were young, it was a life saver."Don't joke around with us. Not even Ash is that obsesses with Pokémons, that and he seldom trains." May exclaimed with a hard gazed."Ash matured." Brock exclaimed, already wanting to eat something."Ash and maturity doesn't mix." Dawn stated knowingly."As far as you know." Both Gary and Brock said in unison, much to Dawn's annoyance."Come on you two, tell us already. Mrs. Ketchum had been worried sick about Ash since late last night." Misty stated, worried about Ash's mother."You guys need to chill out for a while." A voiced stated behind them. The group looked at their backs to see Ash, with the same clothes as he wore last night and with Pikachu on his shoulders drinking down some ketchup, eating some pancakes. "Hey guys, wants some." Ash asked causally as he ate some pancakes.The three girls growled at him in unison. "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN MISTER?" The three girls asked with a growled."I've been around, enjoying the festival at its fullest." Ash answered casually."You were supposed to meet us in town square for the firework display and for the dance." Dawn exclaimed angrily.Ash looked at her in a funny way as he chuckled. "I was there, you guys just didn't see me." Ash stated with a chuckled. Gary and Brock looked at him in disbelief, he and Elena was there, impossible. If they were there, the two of them would probably pull the three of them away from his girlfriend."Stop lying mister, we didn't even see you there." May exclaimed with a huff.'It hard to see me when I'm dancing on top of you, on the sky, with my beloved.' Ash thought as he chuckled, much to the annoyance of his friends. "Trust me I was there." Ash said once again as he devour another pancake. "Man this is great pancakes." Ash added cheerfully.Misty's eye twitch violently as she watched Ash and Pikachu eat their respective food. "DON'T EAT WHILE WERE SCOLDING YOU, MISTER." Misty yelled as she slapped Ash's plate filled with pancakes and Pikachu's ketchup. With reflexes that surpass human limits, Ash caught his plate and Pikachu's ketchup without disturbing Pikachu on his shoulder. He then gave Pikachu his bottle of ketchup and Ash proceeded to eat the remaining pancakes.Misty let out a sigh of frustration once again as her eye twitch violently. "Do you have any idea how worried Mrs. Ketchum is about you." Misty said out of frustration. That was not the right thing to say to Ash right now. Gary and Brock tense up and hid behind the couch, this will not be for the faint of heart."Are you even listening to…" Misty didn't finish that statement when a fork suddenly flies through her, missing her by a mere millimeter, the fork landed on the wall, creating a crack on the surface of the wall. Misty was startled, that was close."Hey, what was that for Ash?" May asked, surprise in Ash's sudden action."Yeah, you could have seriously hurt someone with that." Dawn exclaimed harshly.Ash then looked at them with a cold, piercing glare, which made the girls flinch. May have seen that stare before and it was even scarier than before. "Don't speak about my mom to me for a while, okay." Ash said with a cold gazed. He then walked pass them and head upstairs, leaving three scared girls in the process."That went well that I have imagined." Gary mumbled under his breath."Yeah, I though Ash would start throwing Aura Spheres." Brock whispered.(SCENE CHANGE)Elena's crew was gathered around the lobby as they waited for the announcement of their boss. Some of them were disappointed that they are leaving even before the festival was not finish but their job came first before leisure. Henry then walked in front of them with a piece of paper in his hands."Okay everybody, here's the list of things to buy for our first expedition." Henry announced as he browed the paper. "Michael, Karen, you two will buy some art supplies and maps. Here are the specific maps that you two will buy." Henry ordered as he handed the list towards Karen."Okay boss." Karen replied as she took the list."I'll handle the art supplies while Karen handles the maps." Michael stated with a bored expression."That's fine, just as long as it is done. " Henry commented. "Next, Michelle, Tanya, you guys will buy our food supply and some camping materials." Henry then handed them the list."Sure give us most troublesome job of all." Tanya exclaimed as she took the list from Henry."Deal with it." Adan stated with a chuckled."Yes deal with it, now for the next….." Henry was abruptly interrupted when Natasha took the list."Let's just get these over with so we could go on with our lives." Natasha stated. "Neil, Justin, you two are in charge in our mechanical supply, here's the list." Natasha then threw the list which Neil caught. "Henry, I don't care if you're still in a hang-over, you are going to buy this climbing equipment and if you disagree, I'll kick your ass." Natasha threatened as she threw the list towards Henry's face. "Me, Adan, and Elena will buy the digging supplies." Natasha concluded as she handed the list to Adan.The crew looked at her with a bilwierded expression, she seems overly excited. Natasha took noticed the attention of the crew was out into her and look at them with a gaze that only she could give. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WAITING FOR MAGGOTS, MOVED OR I'LL BITE YOUR HEADS OFF." Natasha screamed which caused everyone, but Elena and Adan, to mobilize.Natasha smiled as the crew disappeared. "Now that's done, Adan were going." Natasha ordered as she walked towards Elena and smiled at her. "And you, go to your prince, get me some samples from your prince for archaeological purposes, have a good time, kiss his head off, and give him a good time." Natasha stated with a smiled as she dragged Adan away."Have a good time Elena." Adan said as he was being dragged away by Natasha.Elena giggled at the two, maybe those two knowing her secret wouldn't be too bad. "Hey Koyuki, let's go find your father." Elena said which caused the white Lucario to smile. "That's good," She then took a Poke-ball from her pocket and gazed at it with a smile. "It's time for me to return him anyway."(SCENE CHANGE)"Ashy, are you coming or not?" Delia asked with a worried tone. Since Ash went back in the house, she could feel a tension between her and her son growing. When she saw her son walk upstairs, she attempted to hug him and scold him for making her worry but Ash avoided her, just like that. And the way he looked at him was unnerving; it was like he had lost every respect he had to her. That unnerved the mother greatly."Sorry mom, I got other plans." Ash said in a cold like manner as he walked pass his mother. Pikachu glanced at the others; this would not suit well for them."Why not? You did not spend time with us last night, why not now?" May asked in frustration and hurt expression."Yeah Ash, you should hang with us today." Zoey asked, wanting to spend some time with her crush."Sorry guys, I want to but I can't. I have to meet up with my uncle today." Ash lied with his best acting voice, which could fool Arceus herself."You have an uncle." Max inquired with interest. The girls seemed to be interested as well while Brock and Gary stare at him. The two of them already knew that it was a lie, he was going to meet up with Elena, that deceiving bastard. Delia and Professor Oak on the other hand froze, their was only one person who Ash will call uncle."Yes I have, she's my mom's brother and my father's best friend, his name is Adan. Here's a picture of him." Ash said as he showed a picture of his uncle, which was given to him by Elena. His friends look at the photo, and practically the girls squalled at the sight of the red head man."Your uncle is hot." Dawn exclaimed with a squeal."Yeah he is." May agreed as she looked at the photo once again."I never thought you have such a good looking uncle. Is he trainer?" Mist asked with interest."No, his a mechanic and an archeologist but he also trained Pokémons, he specializes on steel-type Pokémons." Ash stated as he put the picture back to his pocket."I really am sorry guys. I want to hang out with you guys today but I need to talk to my uncle, I hadn't seen him for ten years and I just saw him last night. I want to catch up with him for good all time sake." Ash said in an apologizing manner with a hint of acting (Ash deserves an academy award or a golden globe).Ash's friends seem to buy Ash's lie and smiled at him. "So that's why you didn't came with us during the dance, you were spending time with your uncle." Zoey exclaimed with a smiled."You know we would have understand it if you told us on the first place and not looked at us like you were about to kill us." Misty said in understanding."Yeah but we understand a bit, you hadn't seen your uncle for ten years right." Dawn inquired."Yeah, give or take a few months." Ash said calmly."We forgive you then for not going with us to the dance and were allowing you to go." May stated which followed by a nod by his friend, Gary and Brock just smiled slyly at Ash, knowing that he will not meet with his uncle but his girlfriend.Ash smiled at them, they were so easy to fool sometimes. "Thanks guys, I'll make this up to you guys, someday soon." Ash said as he began his dash but was stop by his mother. "What's the matter mom?" Ash asked in a calm yet cold way."Where is my brother?" Delia asked with an uncharacteristic harsh tone of voice, she was gazing at Ash with a cold stare.Ash looked at his mother with a stoic glance before leaning closer to her. "If you're worried about him telling me the incident twenty years ago and about this Henry person, I already know." That caused Delia's eyes to widen in fear. "I still love you mom but I've lost every ounce of respect I have for you. I know you didn't love Dad that much but going as far as to do that, Mom, how could you." Ash whispered to his mother with a hurt and harsh tone. He then looked at her mother's eyes before walking pass her.'Brother, how could you tell him that?' Delia thought as she suppressed a tear that threatens to fall from her eyes.(Scene Change)"(That's a little bit harsh, don't you thing?)?" Pikachu asked his partner as they walked towards the clearing where Ash will train."Harsh you say, I wanted to throw an Aura Sphere at her." Ash exclaimed as he gritted his teeth."(Your Aura Sphere is roughly equivalent to a Hyper Beam from a pseudo-legend, which would kill her)." Pikachu said outrage at what his partner was thinking of doing."I know, what do you think stop me from doing it in the first placed." Ash said seriously. "I may not have any more respect from my mom but I still love her and would want nothing more for her to be part of my life and eventually Elena's life. I also don't want to deprive my future offspring of a caring grandmother." Ash said with a soft tone."(You really are planning to marry her in the future, huh)." This was more of a statement than a question coming from Pikachu."A life without her is a life not worth living." Ash simply stated as he stopped in a certain clearing."This place will do." Ash then took three Poke balls from his pocket. "Charizard, Sceptile, Snorlax, let's dance." Ash declared and with a flash, Charizard, Sceptile, and Snorlax appeared before him, ready to tear it up."You guys are my Elites; the others may not know it but you guys are my strongest elite. As of now, no more holding out, no more giving way, it's time to show our real power." Ash declared which earned him a roar of excitement from his four elites. "That would also mean that I have to train you four harder to set an example to the others, are you guys up for that?" Ash asked with confidence.The four roared with confidence, it was finally the time that they have been waiting for. Ash smiled as he removed his black coat. "Let's rock then." Ash said as he went into a fighting stance."You won't rock without me right." A familiar voice said as she appeared at the clearing. Ash smiled as he looked back to see Elena and Koyuki approaching."Never," Ash whispered as Elena gave him a welcome kiss which he returned wholeheartedly."I never expected you today. I thought your dad would give your crew and you some errands to run." Ash asked but was greatly glad to see her."Let's just say that two certain people help run my errands." Elena said with a giggle. Ash smiled, making a mental note to thank his uncle and Natasha."You don't mind if I train with you today, right?" Elena asked as she took five Poke balls from her pocket."Not at all." Ash answered with a smile. Ash's Pokémons also let out a roar of approval. Koyuki smirked at them, it's time to kick some ass.Elena smiled, it has been a long time since she and Ash trained. Elena then throws five Poke balls in the air "Let's go my friends." With a flash, A shinny Empoleon, a Salamence, a Metagross, a beautiful Milotic (given to her last night), and a Bastiodon, the five Pokémon roared at their trainer and her lover in respect and admiration. The four Pokémons then looked at the new Milotic, whom quickly wrapped herself to their mistress, they could already tell that she was new…and very powerful."The complete team plus one, this is going to be great." Ash then looked at his elites. "Guys be wary of each and every one of them. Elena might not be a trainer but if she is, she has enough skills to be part of the Elite Four." Ash said, prideful of his lover's skill. Pikachu already knew that and nodded while the three merely looked at them with a glint of excitement. Elena's Pokémons let out a roar of thanks as they bowed to Ash, being complemented by a prince was one hell of an honor. Koyuki on the other hand smiled, it's time to make her 'father' proud.Elena giggled at Ash's compliment and how happy her Pokémons was to the compliment being given by an Aura Prince. She then took another Poke ball, a pure black Poke ball and gave it to Ash. "Ash, she's ready?" Elena said as she extended the Poke ball to Ash.Ash grin from ear to ear, his fifth elite was finally ready. "Thank you for training her for my part." Ash said as he took the Poke ball from her hands."She's not a hassle, she miss you so much that it sometimes make me want to kill her. Before I forget, don't worry, no one had seen me training her." Elena said with humorous tone.Ash chuckled at that as he looked at his elites, Pikachu, knowing what kind of Pokémon was inside the Poke ball, took a step back. "Guy, meet my fifth elite." Ash then threw the ball in the air and with a flash; a Pokémon appeared that caused the temperature to drop considerably.Ash's Pokémon looked grim, of all the Pokémons possible to become their trainers fifth Elite, why does it have to be a seven-feet, pure silver, white eyes, maliciously looking, Gengar."Welcome back, old friend." Ash welcomed her, which caused the Gengar to embrace him tightly and childishly, much to Elena's annoyance.(Scene Change)"That was a good training session." Ash commented as he and Elena watched the sunset together, with Ash lying on top of the grassy ground and with Elena lying over him. Their Pokémons were all asleep, even the energetic and powerful Pikachu and Koyuki were napping near them."Yeah, my Pokémons can't keep up with your anymore." Elena complimented as she glanced at her boyfriends elites."I know, the only Pokémons that kept up with them are Empoleon and Salamence, and the only Pokemon that had even beaten them is Koyuki, it isn't surprising though." Ash said as he watched the sun slowly setting."It was to be expected Ash, my legendary sister help me train those two." Elena said with a laughed. "Although, I'm a bit surprised that Gengar could kept up with your orders and your Pokémons, I thought she would to get used to your Pokémons and your style. But there she is, laughing at Snorlax as she sleeps." Elena remarked as she watched Ash's Gengar laughing like a psycho as she sleeps."I was her original master, maybe that's the reason why she easily adapts to my Pokémons and my style." Ash guessed with a shrugged. "But the credit goes to you, you trained her amazingly." Ash complimented as she kissed her forehead as the signed for thanks.Elena giggled at that as she cuddled closer to Ash. "I still can't believe that you only lend her to me for training and for me and her to get along." Elena said in disbelief."What do you expect? The first time you guys met, she almost put you on nightmare because she saw you kissing me." Ash said in humor. "That and your training style fit her well." Ash added.Elena let out a sighed, he was right, that little bugger does fit well in her training style. "Ash, could we stop talking about our Pokémons for a while and just enjoy each other." Elena said with a blush.Ash smiled as he rolled around so that Elena was beneath her. Ash then looked at her with a lustful gazed. "Sure, I'll enjoy you." Ash said with husky tone as he hungrily captured her lips and mouth.'You'll enjoy me; I think it's the other way around.' Elena thought blissfully and lustfully as she drowned herself to Ash's tender kiss.(Scene Change)Elena groaned annoyingly as she look back at Twinleaf Town, she wants nothing more than to just stay in that town for just one more day to watch her Ash battle but unfortunately, she has a job to do. Elena once again groaned in dismay."Hey Elena, you seemed sad somehow." Natasha inquired as she looked at her secretive friend."Yeah, for someone who had spent her entire morning and afternoon with the person she loves, you seemed depress." Adan added as he pilot the jet plane.Elena sighed at the two of them and glared at Natasha. After Ash had flown her to her room last night, which the two unfortunately saw, they hurriedly rush to her room to see the two kissing each other goodbye. That cause Natasha to squall so loud that almost the whole hotel heard her, much to Ash's annoyance. That also caused Ash to leave earlier than expected in fear that it had attracted the attention of her crew, much to her dismay. She and Koyuki had almost killed Natasha for that, if it wasn't for Adan stopping her from doing so. She was still very upset that Natasha had caused her some valuable moments with her Prince.Natasha picking up that glare quickly backed away from the irate girl and her equally irate Lucario, who was on the verge of decimating her. "You're still upset about that incident last night." Natasha said the obvious.Elena growled at her at that. "Right now, the only thing preventing me from crippling you is that we're both sitting in the pilot sit." Elena spat as she glared.Natasha back uncomfortably, she was serious. 'Where is that shy girl that I used to tease around?' Natasha thought as she looked at an angry Elena and an equally angry Koyuki, who was itching to throw her an Aura Sphere."Tasha, leave for now until she cools off." Adan said as he looked at her with a mischievous smile.Natasha, already knowing what that smiled means, turned around and exited the pilot's room. "You cunning bastard, fine I'll do it for Elena's and Ash's sake." Natasha said with a smirked as she took the nearest wrenched and went down to the secret compartment towards the engine room, it's time for a little sabotage."What was that for?" Elena asked Adan who merely grin at her."Let's just say, Natasha just gave you a reason to forgive her." Adan stated with a grin."A reason, what reason?" Elena asked confusedly and as she finished that statement, there was a loud explosion coming from one of the engines. Elena's eyes widen in fear as she looked at Adan for answers.Adan merely grins at her. "For the record, I also want to see my nephew battle." Adan stated as he carefully land the jet.Elena chuckled softly.(Scene Change)Ash looked at the sky as he and his friends walked towards the field were the little tournament if going to be held. He was trying to ignore Barry's annoying tantrum that he would win this tournament and earned the right to face his father, which shocked Ash. Who would have thought that the loud mouths father is a frontier brain?"Hey Ash, what posses you and decided to have a wardrobe make-over?" Barry asked, finally noticing Ash's major wardrobe improvement.Ash merely looked at his rival with a bored expression. "I don't know, this look is just good on me." Ash said with a bored tone."Really or you just change you looks to impress your pretty friends." Barry said in a teasing manner but also caused the girls to blush as well, that was a possibility. Gary and Brock on the other hand just pity their ignorance."Huh, did you say something." Ash said with an uninterested impression.That gesture seemed to mildly annoyed Barry but manage to keep his cool. "Okay wise guy, I do hope that you could manage to win until you battle me again and this time….." Barry was interrupted by Ash."You mean this time I'll beat you again like the last time we battled, only this time, more easily." Ash said without even looking at him."That's not…..""That's exactly what mean, thanks for the motivation Barry, I promised I'll kick your Jiboroni, candy, ass in five moves." Ash said with a chuckled as he walked away, he felt three familiar Aura's in the perimeter.Barry was now irritated at what Ash said. "Get your ass here mister and let's battle." It was already to late, Ash had left the group."Hey Brock, does this happen a lot here in Sinnoh." Misty, May, Max asked as they watched the temper tantrum of their new acquaintance."You have no idea." Brock and Dawn both replied.(Scene Change)"You guys should not have destroyed an engine that was a bit too much." Elena stated as her Salamence flew towards the town."You want a reason to watch the little Prince of yours battle, I just provided the means to do so." Natasha exclaimed with a relief sighed, she was finally back on Elena's good side."That's go and all but do you really have to smash the engine that badly, I have to buy five different parts to fix the damage." Adan whined as he looked at the blueprints of the damage."You didn't tell me what parts I shouldn't smash so I just smash things at random." Natasha reasoned with an apologizing smile."If it weren't for the fact that we're on top of a dragon, I would have slapped you right now." Adan exclaimed in annoyance."You won't do that to an old friend." Natasha said with cutely with matching puppy dog eyes."Don't tempt me woman." Adan said clearly upset about the damage."You two calm down, I'm about to land." Elena said as she ordered her Salamence to land on the secluded area near where the tournament is being held. Her Salamence nod and land on an isolated area."Here's the plan, Natasha will buy the equipment that she had smash and me and Elena will watched my nephew battle." Adan declared much to Natasha's dismay but this was also part of her apology."Fine, at least I get to rest for a bit." Natasha exclaimed."That's the spirit." Elena said Koyuki helped her down to the ground. As her feet touch the ground, a pair of arms wrapped themselves to her waist."You really love surprising me, do you?" Ash said as he embraced her passionately from behind.Elena leaned to the embraced and leaned her head on his shoulder. "Yeah, I don't want to miss you battle." Elena stated as she closed her eyes, enjoying the warmth that Ash is giving her.Natasha was startled to see Ash but when she saw Ash's quick movement on Elena, it almost caused her to squeal but was stop by Adan's quick hands. "Don't disturb their moment again." Adan lectured as he tried to ignore the two. Natasha nodded and Adan had quickly removed his hands from her mouth.Ash and Elena would have remained on this position for a longer time if it weren't for one small little detail."CALLING ASH KETCHIM AND BARRY FOR THE FIRST MATCH OF THE TWINLEAF FESTIVAL, CALLING ASH KETCHUM AND BARRY FOR THE FIRST MATCH OF THE TWINLEAF FESTIVAL."Ash and Elena both groaned at that. They were beginning to enjoy their little moment and that stupid announcer had to ruin it.Ash looked at Elena in an apologizing manner. "Wait for me, I'll end this quick." Ash whispered as he made his way towards the field."Ash, wait." Elena called out as she dashed towards him, taking something out of her coat."What is it?" Ash asked as he turned around and was met by Elena putting something around his neck."For good luck." Elena whispered as she fixed the scarf around Ash's neck. Ash smiled at the feeling of the soft cloth around his neck and kiss Elena lightly on the lips before dashing towards the field for his first battle of the day."I don't know what scares me the most, the fact that Elena and Ash have kept this relationship for two and a half years without us noticing or the fact that Ash, with that scarf, is the carbon copy of Alexander." Adan said with a chuckled."Yeah, I know. The hair, the clothes, the eyes, and now with Alexander's signature white scarf, I feel like it's the second coming of Alexander the Theatrics. " Natasha exclaimed excitedly.(Scene Change)"Ladies and Gentlemen, are you ready for the Twinleaf Festival Battle Tournament?" Johanna energetically asked the crowd as she spun around with her blue gown. The crowd yelled excitedly, eager to see the tournament begin. "The winner of this tournament will have the privilege to battle one of Sinnoh's Frontier Brain, give it up to the Tower Tycoon, Palmer." With that introduction, Palmer appeared in front of the crowd which caused an uproar of cheers.Johanna, sensing the crowd's eagerness, decided to start the tournament. "So without further a do, let's begin the first match." The crowd cheer loudly at that."First in the blue corner, a trainer native to this land and also the son of our guest, Barry." With that introduction Barry appeared, waving at the cheering crowd. "His opponents, coming all the way from Pallet Town in Kanto, please give it up to the pride of Pallet Town, Ash Ketchum." With the introduction, Ash appeared in his corner, causing the girls watching the battle to squeal at the handsome trainer. Even Ash's friend were shocked, he was more handsome with that white scarf around his neck, which emphasize his dark hair.Delia and Professor Oak on the other hand gawk at Ash. With the addition of that white scarf, he looked exactly like his father at his age."What's with the scarf?" Barry asked annoyingly after hearing the loud squeal of the girls in the crowd. How could Ash attract so much attention from the ladies by merely changing his cloths?"Why? You like!" Ash asked teasingly as he took a Poke ball from his pocket."Dream on." Barry replied annoyingly as he threw his Poke ball in the air. "Let's go, Empoleon." With a flash, Barry's Empoleon appear, ready for battle."I choose you, Snorlax." Ash yelled as he threw is Poke ball. With a white flash, Ash's Snorlax appeared, barely awake but ready for battle."You have a Snorlax, since when?" Barry asked looking at the Sleeping Pokémon with interest."None of your business my friend." Ash answered which irate Barry. "Five moves, I'll bet you in five moves." Ash declared as he looked at the field with a psychotic smile, scaring his Barry, his friends, and the crowd in the process."Oh shit, here we go again." Brock mumbled under his breath.Barry shrugged of the fear that he was feeling before glaring at Ash." Five moves huh, let see about that. Empoleon, let's start this with a quick Drill Peck." Barry ordered. Empoleon's beak and crown glowed before spinning like a drill and charge towards Snorlax."What an idiot, Snorlax, wait until that bird is close to you before delivering an Ice Punch on the ground." Ash commanded. Snorlax grin at that, its show time. As Empoleon's attack was mere inches away from him, Snorlax's slammed his icy fist to the ground, creating a pillar of ice, trapping Empoleon's beck on it, halting the Drill Peck in the process. Barry was shock as he watched his Empoleon struugle to get free from the pillar of ice.Ash would not let that happen. "Snorlax, Hyper Beam." Snorlax opened his mouth before letting lose a powerful orange beam towards the vulnerable Empoleon. The ice pillar shattered as Empoleon was push back by the powerful Hyper Beam and finally crash to the ground were an explosion followed."Empoleon, are you okay?" Barry asked worriedly at his starter. That Hyper Beam was very powerful. As the dust disappeared, Barry let out a sigh of relief; his Empoleon was still standing, barely standing. "Empoleon let's capitalize, Hydro Pump now." Barry ordered with confidence knowing that Snorlax needs to recharge after that move."Pikachu I take it back, his not an idiot." Ash said to his faithful partner who was watching the battle on his shoulder."(I know, his just an imbecile)." Pikachu stated with a grin.As Empoleon blast a powerful jet of water towards Snorlax, Ash made his move. "Snorlax, Roll-out to dodge, and get close to him." Ash commanded. Much to everyone's shock, Snorlax curled itself into a all and rolled rapidly to dodge the incoming jet of water."How is that possible? Your Snorlax didn't stop and recharge." Barry exclaimed in shock."See Pikachu, the power of being an imbecile never cease to amaze me." Ash said as he converse with Pikachu. Pikachu replied by nodding.Barry gritted his teeth, hearing that insult." Empoleon, continue blasting that Snorlax with Hydro Pump." Barry ordered in frustration.Ash smirked. "Snorlax dance around the little penguin for me." Snorlax did as he was commanded and dodge every blast of Hydro Pump that was headed his way.Barry watched in frustration as his Empoleon's attacks were dodged skillfully and gracefully. "This is not going anywhere, Empoleon Hydro Cannon." Barry ordered in frustration. Empoleon, feeling a bit drowsy of its constant attacking, launch a compress ball of water towards Snorlax."Like I say, an imbecile to the end." Ahs whispered with a grin. "Snorlax, dodge the Hydro Cannon by rolling low and dive to give that Emperor a royal Focus Punch, upper cut style." Snorlax did what he was told and rolled his body under the compress ball of water before diving towards Empoleon and giving the Emperor Pokémon a strong punch of the beak, causing it to be propel upwards."EMPOLEON." Barry yelled as he helplessly watched his Pokémon helplessly."Grab a hold of Empoleon and used Headbutt then follow it up with Body Slam." Ash commanded with a homicidal grin. Snorlax then grab the slowly descending Empoleon before giving it a thundering Headbutt sending it to the ground with a thud, before it smashed himself towards the Emperor Pokémon, crashing it beneath him.Snorlax, feeling that his opponent was no longer a threat stood up and gazed at his fallen opponent."What did I say, five moves." Ash stated simply as he grin maniacally at Barry."Empoleon is no longer able to battle; this match goes to Ash and Snorlax." The referee announced.Ash's friend and the crowd was amaze, the match did not just end in five moves but it also end at forty- seconds. That was the fastest battle they have ever witness.(Scene Change)Ash's defeated all of his opponent like they were absolutely nothing, most of his battles ended with either one to five moves from his Pokémons and not even reaching the one minute mark. Now it was time for the semi-finals."It has been a magnificent day ladies and gentlemen, now it's time for the semi's, the battle of the final four." Johanna announced excitedly which the crowd answered with a loud cheer."Now in this corner, from Petalburg City, the Princess of Hoenn, please give a round applause to May." Johanna introduced May with enthusiasm. The crowd loudly cheered for May as she stepped on her corner."Now for the trainer who had destroyed everyone on his path at this tournament, The Monster of Pallet Town, Ash Ketchum." Johanna announced excitedly as Ash once again appeared on the corner of the field. The crowd went nuts as they saw Ash, some girls even squeal at the sight of him, much to Elena's annoyance."Remind me why I haven't kill those girls already." Elena said as she was being restrained by Natasha and Koyuki being restrain by Empoleon and Salamence."Because if you kill those girls, you would be in jail and Ash won't like that." Adan simply stated as he watched his nephew battle for the first time. He was as skill as his late father."Sorry May, I won't give you any slack." Ash said as he already took a Poke ball from his pocket."I don't need that, Ash." May strongly stated but in the inside, she was shivering. 'I don't know what possessed Ash but it looks like he really became a one man destroying machine.' May thought as she suppress the shiver as she looked at Ash's 'game face' which include a homicidal smile."Sceptile, I choose you." Ash said as he called out his Sceptile. Sceptile appeared on the field and put a twig on its mouth, grinning like mad as his trainer.May shudder at seeing the two smile like that. "Blaziken, on stage." May called out, as she calls her strongest Pokémon. The Blaze Pokémon appeared and grin at her old rival.Ash looked at Blaziken and smirked. She may be in a high level but Sceptile is just stronger. He smiled, maybe he could give me May one hit and end the battle with one hit."Hey May, I'll give you one free." Ash announced much to the crowd and May's surprised."What?" May asked, confused at that."You heard me. I'll give you one free hit on Sceptile and if you don't knock him down with the hit, then I'll end this battle with three moves." Ash stated confidently.May was offended by that and was about to speak out but Ash interrupted her. "Just do what I say, I'm giving you one chance to beat me, I suggest you take it." Ash said with a cold gaze at May.May flinched at that gazed and decided to just do it, this was her only chance to actually beat Ash. "Blaziken, Brave Bird attack full power." May ordered. Blaziken nodded and dash towards Sceptile as her body burst into flames, she then extended her arms which caused the flames to disappear and was replace by a blue aura, she then slammed into Sceptile.Sceptile let out a low groaned as he caught Blaziken with little effort until she stop on her tracks, shocking May greatly. "She should have hit me with a more powerful moved." Ash said with a disappointed sighed.Ash then grinned." Oh well, her lost. Sceptile, throw Blaziken away and charged an Energy Ball." Ash ordered. Sceptile then throw Blaziken all the way to the other corner of the field before forming a green ball of energy between his hands."Blaziken, don't let Sceptile throw the attack. Use Blaze Kick before Sceptile lunched it." May ordered in panicked. Blaziken then charged at her opponent, her right foot covered in flames."Who the hell said Sceptile will throw the attack. Sceptile, swallow it." Ash commanded which caused everyone to looked at him strangely. Sceptile on the other hand merely grin as he ate the energy ball on his hands. The effect was instantaneous, as Sceptile swallowed the energy ball, a green aura of energy exploded on its back, giving him tremendous energy. "Let's start attacking with Leaf Blade." Ash commanded. Sceptile's wrist glowed light grin as it extended and formed into two large, blades. He then charged towards Blaziken in an amazing speed.May seeing the speed that Sceptile was attacking panicked. "Blaziken, Overheat quickly." May ordered hastily. Blaziken quickly canceled the Blaze Kick and her body turns bright red before releasing intense white flames towards Sceptile.Sceptile grin at that attacks as he block the attack with one of his Leaf Blades, cutting the intense fire in half as it continued his way towards Blaziken. As he continue to cut the attack in a half, he had finally reached Blaziken and used his other Leaf Blade to give Blaziken a vertical slash on the left shoulder which caused her to go flying because of the sheer power of the attack."End this with Solar Beam." Ash ordered. Sceptile then fired a powerful beam of light towards Blaziken, without even charging that attack. The attack hit Blaziken dead on which caused Blaziken to crash to the ground. As the light disappeared, Blaziken could be seen, already knocked out."That's that." Ash said in a whisper as Johanna announces him as the winner.(Scene Change)"It's time for the final matched, to determine who will faced Tower Tycoon Palmer. These two don't need any more introduction, so let's start with the matched." Johanna announcement as the matched got underway."This brought back memories." Ash remarked as he summoned his Charizard."Yes it does." Misty said as she summoned her Gyarados."Like I said to May. I won't give you any slack nor any chances to even hit Charizard." Ash stated with a smirked."Tcch, like I need it anyway." Misty said with a confident tone. 'Ash had become stronger, stronger than I have anticipated but I could still beat him.' Misty thought as the battle began."Gyarados, Hydro Pump now." Mist ordered. The large behemoth roared before sending a jet of water towards Charizard."I'll just end this with two moves." Ash whispered under his breath. "Charizard dodge." Charizard took the sky and dodge the Hydro Pump with ease."Don't stop Gyarados and keep on firing those Hydro Pumps." Misty commanded. 'I can't give Ash the opportunity to attack.' Misty thought in caution.Gyrados then fired multiple Hydro Pumps towards Charizard whom dodge them with ease.'She's not giving me any opening to attack, smart yet dumb at the same time.' Ash thought with a frightening grin. "Charizard, fly in low altitude." Ash commanded. Charizard nodded and flew closer to the ground, approaching Gyrados."Don't let him get near you, Gyrados, Flamethrower." Misty ordered calmly. Gyrados once again roared as she let loose a stream of fire towards Charizard."I never thought Misty will use the attack that I needed to end this, her lost." Ash whispered with a smile. "Charizard, let's used the flames as our advantage, formed an Air Slash around your body." Ash ordered, surprising everyone in the crowd. Charizard merely rotate in mid air, forming a ball of wind around him.What shocked the crowd even more is that large version of the Air Slash didn't even cut the attack in half but rather, it sucks the flames onto the ball of wind turning it to a large ball of fire. The ball of fire was then launched towards Gyrados."Use Hydro Pump on the ball of fire, now." Misty ordered hurriedly seeing the large fireball. Gyrados launched another jet of water towards the large fireball, cancelling the two attacks and also causing a fog of steam."Predictable, Charizard you know what to do." Ash simply said as his grinned became wider."Gyrados, used Aqua Tail to blow the steam away." Misty ordered frantically, not seeing an overly power dragon made her nervous. Before Gyrados could used that moved, she screamed in pain which caused Misty to became frantic." "Gyrados, what's happening?" Misty asked in worry about her large friend."Misty it's over." Ash yelled in the same moment as Gyrados fell to the ground, out cold. As the steam cleared, Misty could see Charizard, his claws glowing with electricity.(Scene Change)"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the final match between Tower Tycoon Palmer and the Monster of Pallet, Ash Ketchum." Johanna announced causing the crowd to cheer in excitement."I really have to make my matches with my elites a lot longer; I really don't want to be called the Monster of Pallet for the rest of my career." Ash mumbled uncomfortably on his new nickname. Pikachu chuckled lightly at his partner's new nickname, it was strangely fitting."Hey Ash, are you ready?" Palmer asked as he eyed the young trainer with caution. The kid and his Pokémons were truly monstrous."Sure, if you could help me changed that nickname that Johanna gave me, it's very inappropriate for me." Ash said uneasily as he smiled at his opponent.Palmer chuckled at Ash's face. "Why would you want to change it? It's quite fitting if you asked me." Palmer stated humorously."Right, can we just start this already? The sooner this is done the sooner I can talk to Johanna on giving me that name." Ash said as he gazed at his opponent."Sure, why not? I do have a meeting with Scott after this." Palmer said with a grin."Guest first then." Ash said as he gestured him to release his Pokémon."Why, thank you Ash." Palmer then threw a Poke ball towards the field. "Help me my friend." Palmer said as he called out his Pokemon and with a flash, a giant Rhyperior appeared in front of Ash.The crowd gasped at the hugeness of the Pokémon in front of them but Ash merely looked at it uninterestedly."Hey Pika, how long could you control the Dark Spark before it spirals out of control." Ash asked as he gazed at the giant Pokémon in front of him."(I could control the Dark Spark in twenty seconds before it spirals out of control)." Pikachu answered already liking where this is going."Good, will end this battle in ten second, with one move, using the Dark Spark. We're going all out the moment Palmer launches his first attack." Ash instructed as he gestured for Pikachu to enter the field."(Let me guess you want to spend some time with Elena before she leaves)" Pikachu said as he leaps into the field."Bingo," Ash said as he looked at Palmer's confused face."Ash, you do realize that…""Save it sir, I know the decision I made and it's the right one." Ash said to Palmer with a confident and a psychotic grin.Palmer seems to be unnerved by that grinned and decided to just battle the boy. "Rhyperior start this off with Rock Polish and then follow it up with Megahorn." Hearing the command of his master, he slammed his two large fists together causing the yellow plates on his body to glowed red before charging towards Pikachu with its horn glowing white.Ash waited before Rhyperior was merely an inch away from Pikachu before saying the words that made him and Pikachu famous. "Activate, DARK SPARK." Ash commanded with a psychotic grin.With that command, Pikachu's entire body turned completely black as black electricity was dangerously being emitted everywhere, causing the people to dodge quickly before the black electricity hit them. The ground where the black lightning unfortunately hit shattered, creating and three foot wide and three foot deep crater.Palmer's eyes widen. What the hell was that? He was so shocked that he didn't have enough time to command his Rhyperior from being shock by the black lightning. He was snapped back into reality when he heard his Rhyperior screamed in agony. "Rhyperior, get out of there." Palmer shouted frantically. Rhyperior, with the remaining speed he had, made some distance away from the now black Pikachu."Hey Palmer, sorry about this." Ash said with a grin. "Pikachu, Kirin (Again, I can't resist)." With that said, Ash created an invisible Aura shield around the field, preventing the smoke or the attack to get out.Pikachu grin as he jump towards the sky while slowly turning the air around him into black electricity. He then dived down towards Rhyperior in a remarkable and untraceable speed with a massive black lightning covering his entire body in a shape of a Chinese Chimera.Palmer could only say one thing after seeing that moved. "Holy Shit, Rhyperior Rock Wrecker with everything you got." Palmer ordered in fear, even though Rhyperior was part ground that would still hurt (it will really hurt).Rhyperior, because of his master's orders and because he sense that moved will seriously hurt created a massive large boulder, twice its size before throwing it to the large electric attack. The giant boulder and the large black chimera clash for a brief second before the lightning attack decimated the large boulder and smashed through Rhyperior, devouring him into a large electric energy. Rhyperior screamed in pain and agony as his body got electrocuted for the first time.Palmer on the other hand could only hear the screamed of his Rhyperior as his vision was blocked by the black electricity and the large dust off smoke.Ash looked at Rhyperior with mercy and grief, pitying the large Pokémons state as his body was being electrocuted by that powerful moved. Ash let out a sigh of relief as the lightning attack disperse and having the full knowledge that Ryhperior would still be walking, thanks to its ground-type characteristics, it will be walking in three days time.As the attacks disperse Ash put on a stoic expression. "Pikachu, deactivate the Dark Spark." Ash commanded with pity. Pikachu, sensing the voice of his 'brother', deactivated the dark spark which caused the dust of smoke to be blown away. Ash looked at Pikachu and was startled when he saw a silhouette of some kind of Pokémon hovering over him, it looked like something that resembled a werewolf and an Anubis. The silhouette then disappears as the last spark of black lightning had disappeared.Ash ignored what he saw and sighed. 'Dark Spark, Seventy-Five Percent mastered.' Ash thought as Rhyperior fall to the ground, knocked-out.During this tournament, Ash showed a glimpse of his real power and a glimpse of his true, fast hitting and hard hitting style. He had also handed people the fastest and the hardest defeat that they have ever endured.
