Ash

We start walking back to the place I started my Journey: Pallet Town. 

I never thought of going back to Kanto after five years, especially what happened when I found out that I was a Pokemon Guardian, thanks to Arcues's kidnapping suprise attack on me. 

Red and Roma looked at one other, knowing that this would be the toughest challenge in my life.

Roma asks, "Ash, are you ok, bro? Going back to Pallet Town is going to hard for you. Are you sure you're up for this, with what has happened since..." 

"Since I became a Pokemon Guardian, reunited with all my friends and my fiancé? This is more than a challenge, Roma. 

This is a test for me to see if I can take back my life not as a Pokemon Guardian, but going back as a Trainer." 

Brock said, "Do you think Professor Oak would know about you being back, Ash? It seems fair since he was the closest person who you looked up to, and he was the person who gave you Pikachu in the first place." 

I thought about what he said, which he does have a point. Professor Oak is the best mentor and he did gave me Pikachu as my starter Pokémon.

I just hope that he isn't going to be mad at me. But I am more hoping that I wouldn't see Delia again.

As we go inside the Lab, the first thing I see, is my Bulbasaur coming towards me.

"Ash, Pikachu!" He said, as I embraced the grass Pokemon in my arms. 

Roma said, "So, that is your Bulbasaur huh? Wait, why he didn't evolve?"

"That's an easy question, Roma. You see, Ash's Balbasaur didn't want to evolve just like Pikachu was." An familiar voice said.

"Professor Oak!" Serena exclaimed with happiness.

He seems stunned to see me back home, with new attire. I can sense it through his aura.

"Professor." I greeted.

Serena

I was a little bit concerned about how Professor is doing. He did mention before that he wanted to see Ash but not like this, with Kanto being in danger.

"So, Ash, I get this feeling that coming back to Pallet is wierd for you, isn't?" Professor Oak said.

Ash nodded, "Yeah, it is, but you seemed suprise that I was a Pokemon Guardian. You must been shock like the rest of the gang by now." 

"Well, I did saw you battling Roma, but I never suspect you actually hold that much power within you, Ash." 

The Pokemon Guardian blushes with embarrassment, but then changes the subject.

"Any idea would Giovanni would come to Kanto?" He asks.

"Not so sure, my guess that would take him at least a week." Professor replied.

"Well, I guess that is all the time we needed." I said, "Ash, you should take a rest. Roma, Red, you go with Max and make sure that there is no unexpected suprises that Giovanni would pull." 

All boys nodded, as I turn to the others. "We have to make a barrier around the lab, hopefully that would slow Giovanni down with the Pokemon's help." 

As I get ready, I noticed a brown woaman staring in the distance.

I walked towards her, but she runs as fast she can. 

I wasn't sure whom it was, but I think it was Delia. If it is her, Ash would be irate of her. 

When Bonnie told me that she disowned her own son, and forcing him to give up his long-time dream of being a Pokemon Trainer, it seems wrong.

I look at Ash who is asleep. 

As I walk outside, Pikachu looks at me.

"Pikachu, please, don't let Ash follow me. I'll be right back." I said to the mouse Pokemon with ease.

He understands as he climbs into my shoulder to join me!

"You really want to come along?" I asked him, and he nods. 

"Ok, then. Braxien, you're in charge while I'm gone." I said to my fire Pokémon. 

As we go along, Pikachu snesed that we weren't alone.

"Pikachu, what is it?" I ask. 

The woman came up to me, as Pikachu was sparking with rage.

"Pikachu, please, I just want to talk." Delia said.

I said, in disbelief, "Talk?!? You disown Ash, your own son, left Red, Lawrence, and Roma! You destroyed their lives!" 

"Because I was forced to!" She said, crying.

"Wait, what you talking about?"

"It's about time you knew the truth. Giovanni came to Pallet Town a few days before Ash came back from the Kalos League.

He threathen to kill me. Giovanni is also my brother." 

My heart started to pace, as hearing that our newest enemy is related to Ash.

"Delia, you can't be serious! If you are really telling me this, why you didn't tell Ash in the first place?"

"I'm so sorry, but since I am Ash's mother, I had to keep his evil uncle from him. The truth would be overbearing for him if he finds out about this." 

I scoffed, "Yeah, he would. Delia, as much I hate you, you have to get to safety. Giovanni would suspect you would still be in Kanto." 

"Just please keep Ash safe at all cost." Delia said, as she went away from me.

Pikachu sighs in relief, but for me, not so sure.

I noticed something else. It was two girls and one of them was hurt, like beyond brutal.

"Hey, you know where Professor Oak lives?" One of the girls ask.

Pikachu went towards the girls as if he knew them.

"Pikachu? But if you're here, then that means Ash's back! Misty, it's going to be all right." 

I ask, "You know Ash?"

May

I saw Pikachu with a girl I never seen before. A group of trainers named Team Skull  nearly killed Misty in her Gym, without any warning. 

Luckily I came to her rescue with Glaceon and managed to escape the gym.

The Girl lead us to the lab, which I was stunned to see Max with others.

"May! What you doing here?" Brock ask, then notices Misty's condition.

"What the heck happen to Misty?!?" Max asked.

"A group of Trainers attacked Misty. She barely made it out alive." I replied. 

A boy with his Charizard said, "A group of Trainers? Who attacked her?"

"A group called Team Skull." 

Everyone was silent, but the boy said, flexing his wrists, "Team Skull... Geez, why they ever stop following me?" 

Max said, trying to relax him, "Roma, chill. We will handle Giovanni and Team Skull. Besides, Ash can handle them since he's a Pokémon Guardian." 

Roma said, "Yeah, you're right about that, Max. So, who are you guys exactly?"

That was when I saw Ash. He looks completely different.

When he saw me, I said, "Ash. I thought I wouldn't see you again." 

He was silent mostly because that what I've said to him five years ago, telling him to give up his dream, along with Max, Delia and Misty.

"Ash, please heal Misty. I know that you feel angry about what I've said, but please, if you really accept Misty as a friend, it's the least it's for the best." I plead, but I'm not sure how he can heal her in this condition.

Ash sighs, but I hear him say, "Stand back. I don't know how much aura I can heal her."

I was confused of what he meant by that, but everyone else didn't take no for an answer as they walked away far from Misty.

I saw a blue light, and everyone was concerned about Ash.

As the light dimmers, Ash panted as he was about to fall, Roma and other boy managed to catch him in time.

"Ash, you all right, bro?" Roma ask, as Ash said, "Yeah, thanks to you guys for catching me from falling."

"Uh... where am I? M-May?" Misty groans.

"Misty, oh thank goodness!" I said, hugging her tightly.

"It's going to be a while until your strength is fully recovered, but you'll be fine." Ash said.

"Ash..." Misty said, stunned to see him.
