Pokemon Gates to Infinity the Novel Series

episode 30 an injured boy

Ash and the gang were walking near a wooded area thinking they had made it to the Safari Zone and decided to go walking around just to see the scenery when they saw an injured boy sitting against a tree. He had dark blue spikey hair, wearing a red shirt, blue shorts, and white shoes.

"Guys look." Misty said getting their attention.

"That poor boy," Misty said sadly, "He has so cuts on him."

"How awful." Molly said.

Ritchie approached the boy, "Hey you okay?" he touched the boys shoulder making the child thrash around out of fear and he accidently slapped Ritchie in the face away from him.

"Hey!" Ritchie yelled.

The boy brought up his arms to defend himself, "I'm sorry!"

Ritchie lost all his anger and stared at him with concern because this seemed way as Ash.

Ash knew exactly what the voice of life world was thinking on Glacier Palace; this boy is smarter when he was younger he remember this pokemon hurt him. Ash Scrowled at the memory he remembers at the Glacier Palace Munna's apprentice Chandelure comes in and ready to Hurt him, Chandelure starts by Holding Ash closer to him and squeezing Gently, making Ash squirm, Chandelure didn't mind about it, he wanted to Have some fun with Hugs with the human, this is the Memory Ash didn't want to dewell.

Ash approached the boy getting the others attention, "Be careful Ash." Misty warned.

He gave her a smile, "It's okay, he's just scared that's all."

Misty was about to say something else, but Brock put a hand on her shoulder shaking his head.

Ash crouched down slowly making the boy flinch, "Hi." He smiled.

The boy was taken back by such warm and honest eyes and lowered his arms a little bit, "H-hi."

"My names Ash," he pointed at Pikachu who was on his shoulder, "And this is Pikachu."

Pikachu nodded, "Pikachu (Hi there)."

The boy stared at both of them lowering his arms completely showing a sign of trust.

"Can you tell me your name?" Ash asked kindly.

The boy hesitated for a second before responding, "T-Tommy..."

"Tommy, that's a nice name." Ash smiled.

Pikachu nodded.

Tommy blushed and looked down, "Thank you."

Ash looked at all the bruises and scars on the boy and wanted to ask but decided not to, "Is it alright if I treat your wounds?"

Tommy nodded silently.

Ash took off his backpack and pulled the medical items out of his bag and slowly started treating the boys wounds carefully then took out some disinfectant, "This is gonna sting a little."

Tommy nodded and closed his eyes, as Ash dabbed the medicine on the boy's wounds and like he said it did sting a little but Ash blew on them to lessen the sting. While he was doing this, the others behind him were watching in amazement at how gentle he was being.

"Wow, I never knew he could be so gentle." Misty said.

Brock nodded, "Yeah, I've never seen him act like this before."

Ritchie observed the interaction, "It's the same as back then."

"What do you mean?" Misty looked at him.
