Chapter 8 - Kidnapped

Serena's POV
It's been only a couple hours since I was kidnapped. Now I'm back at my castle. As a prisoner. I never thought this would happen. The worst part is, that I got knocked out for no reason!

Well I guess there's a reason. I have been a fugitive for a year... but still. That's no way to treat a Princess! I was thrown into a different cell. Not in the dungeons, a special one near the throne room.

My parents don't even know I'm here. Not Calem either. I'm alone. Without Ash or anyone to protect me. There's just one thing on my mind. Why didn't he kill me?

I seriously thought that when he grabbed me, I was going to be killed. Wait.... oh no! He's using me as bait.... I need to warn Ash somehow! I need to stop him from being lured into the trap.

I quickly stand up and look around my cell. My hat, shoes and vest is gone, leaving me in my dress and socks I had worn for the year.

I look around and see my mothers Persian, and fathers Pyroar. They were looking into my eyes sadly. I was wondering why they weren't locked away...

"Hey." I whisper, grabbing their attention. "Could you unlock the cell please?" I ask.

My mothers Persian responds by nodding it's head. It extended its claws, and put one in the lock, and she began moving her paw around. I hear a small click and sigh in relief.

"Now do you know where the other Pokémon are being held?"  I ask. I need to find fletchling. It was my only hope of getting Ash's attention.

They both nod, and Persian signals she will lead the way. I quickly go back to my cell, and set up my pillow and blanket to where it looks like I'm still sleeping.

Me and Persian then head off. I follow her through corridors, upon corridors of the castle. We went up and down different staircases, all while staying out of the sight of the guards.

Eventually we reach a room. It has all the Pokeballs of my family, and the guards that used to protect my family. I look around and notice a Pokeball with a wing symbol on it. That's the one.

I let Fletchling out of the Pokeball and it lands on my head. I shush it and grab a note that I had written in my bedroom. I attach it to Fletchlings leg, and let it fly.

I hear footsteps behind me. I know I've been found. At least, I hope, Ash will get the note. Luckily, Fletchling had made it out.

Someone pins my arms behind me, and covers my mouth and with his other free hand. I'm guessing this was so that none of the prisoners they had would here me. Then I see a Butterfree.

"Use Poison Powder." One of the other men say. Then purple spores are sent into the air, and make the way towards me.

"Gust!" I hear the king shout. Then the spores disappear. "I told you to put her to sleep! Not kill her!"

"We just wanted to see her suffer!" The one holding me still shouts back.

"You will not be the one to end her life. If Prince Ash doesn't come, I will marry her, to get the power of the kingdom, then I will." He says maniacally.

"What if he does come?" One asks. I hear the sound of metal against skin, and the scream of the soldier.

"If he comes, they will both be killed. Immediately." He says as my eyes widen.

"Now Butterfree, use sleep powder." The King says to the Butterfree. This time, nothing stops it, and I fall to sleep.

Ash's POV
I arrive at the castle. Everyone in Vaniville looks depressed and saddened. I Absolutely hate seeing people like that.

I rush inside. I had gotten a note from a Fletchling. It said to stay away and to save myself. Ha! I'd never do that!

"Serena... I'm coming!" I shout in my head as I'm followed by Serena's and my own Pokémon.

I get inside to the throne room. It was dark. Completely. Then as I walk further, the lights turn on. I look forward to see Serena.

She looked like she was just waking up. She was in the middle of the room, with her wrists tied above her head, with ropes being held up at the ceiling. She was standing.

Once she realized where she was, and who was in front of her, her eyes widened. "A-ASH?!?!" She shrieks.

I walk towards her. "No! Run!!" She yells.

"It's to late for that!" I hear the King shout.

"Let her go!" I yell.

"I'm afraid not my Prince." He responds as he starts laughing. "I think I'll just..... kill her."

My eyes widen. I can't believe it. Wow... he was actually going to kill Serena. I look over to the right, and see Serena's family staring at the scene with fear. Then the King starts slowly walking towards her.

Serena was standing there. Her eyes were full of regret. She was staring at me, with a few tears.

"No!! Please!! Don't hurt her!!" I shout as I run towards her.

The King, appears behind her from shadows, with his sword drawn. My eyes widen and I run as quickly as possible.

Serena mouths, "I love you Ashy." Then I see the silver of a sword get thrusted into Serena's back. The point of the sword goes through, to show blood on it.

Serena's eyes are full of nothing. Her head falls forward, causing her eyes to be looking at the ground. She slouches over. The King removes the sword, causing Serena to fall forward.

"SERENAAAA!!!!!" I shout as I reach her. "No, no, no!!" I fall to my knee's. I turn her onto her back, and I cradle her in my arms.

"S-Serena....N-No....please...don't go!" I shout.

"A-Ashy...I-I'm so, so...Sorry..." Serena says as her eyes close. I can see her last tear fall down her cheek.

"N-No....Serena...." I say as the puddle of blood grows. That's it... That's when I break down. Tears start streaming down my face.

"SERENA!!!!" I shout. I'm still in complete shock. It couldn't be. I was too late... she's gone....
