Everyone's vision cleared as they saw they were back in the Pokemon Center. Those who were in relationships all held their other half closer, since they all saw that they will still be happily together, and in most cases married in the future. Those who weren't currently in a relationship looked happy as they got a glimpse of who they would be with, but none happier looking than Brock.

"What did you see that made you so happy?" Misty asked Brock.

Brock smiled big. "I saw her. The Kalosian beauty I met during the crisis. I knew I was going to find her, and now I see she and I will be married."

"Congratulations Brock," said Ash.

Everyone was busily talking about things they saw in the vision of the future, and didn't see the woman with long red hair walking into the Pokemon Center and to Nurse Joy's desk.

"Hello welcome to the Pokemon Center, how may I help you?" Nurse Joy greeted.

"I need a room for the night please," said the red haired woman.

Nurse Joy frowned, "I'm sorry, but we're all booked up. We don't have any rooms."

"No," the woman groaned. "Please I need a room. My room at the hotel had one of those vines go through it so I can't stay there now. Can you check any of the other Pokemon Centers in Lumiose City?"

---------------------------------------------------------

Back with the gang they were laughing and having a great time. Brock then hears a voice that catches his attention. He looked over towards Nurse Joy's desk and saw her, the red haired woman. Brock shot up to his feet and ran to Nurse Joy's desk with hearts in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, but they are all full too," replied Nurse Joy.

"Ok, thank you," the woman said sadly.

"M'lady," the red haired woman heard from behind. She turned as Brock reached her, went down to a knee and took her right hand.

"My love, I knew I would see you again," said Brock.

---------------------------------------------------------

Back with the group, Max and Misty stood up to deal with Brock, seeing what he was doing. Ash saw as well, he checked the womans aura, and smiled. He saw Misty and Max leaving the group, and decided to be Brock's wingman.

"Hold up you two," Ash said to Max and Misty.

"Why? Aren't you seeing this," Misty asked Ash.

"Yes, and are you seeing what I'm seeing. Crogunk hasn't come out of his pokeball, and look at her face," Ash explained.

Max and Misty looked back towards Brock and realized Ash was right, Crogunk hadn't come out of his pokeball. And the woman didn't looked freaked out by Brock's behavior, as a matter of fact, she was smiling. They decided to then just sit back down and wait to see how this played out.

---------------------------------------------------------

"My love, I knew I would see you again," said Brock

The woman smiled. "I am happy to see you again my knight. I am pleased to see that you were victorious on your quest to save Lumiose City," she said trying to sound as much like a medieval queen as she could.

"It was a difficult battle, but my friends and I were victorious," Brock replied. "Are you staying at the pokemon center as well?"

The woman hung her head, "I'm afraid not. I was staying at one of the hotels, but my room was damaged by the vines, so I can't stay there anymore. I was hoping to stay here, but they're full."

"In that case you can have my room," Brock said proudly.

"Brock no, I couldn't do that to you," she said.

"No I insist," Brock replied.

"But what about you? Where will you sleep?" She asked.

"I came to Kalos to see a good friend of mine to compete in the Kalos League. I'll just barrow his camping gear," Brock replied casually.

"No. I've stayed in Pokemon Centers before, there is plenty of space in the room, we'll share," she stated sternly as she crossed her arms.

"There's no point in arguing is there?" Asked Brock.

The woman shook her head.

Brock sighed, "ok then, I guess we're sharing a room. But you are taking the bed, I'll sleep on the floor."

"Fine," she said, then said under her breath, "we'll see about that."

"Well let me show you to the room," Brock said.

"Ok, what were you doing before you came to my rescue this time?" Asked the woman.

"Oh I was hanging out with my friends over there," Brock said gesturing towards the group.

"Can we go sit with them for a little bit, I'd like to meet them," she asked.

"Sure, come with me," said Brock as he took her rolling bag, and lead her to the gang.

"Hey guys, I'd like to introduce you to the woman I told you about earlier," Brock started when he returned to the group.

At this moment he then realized that he once again forgot to ask her her name. Thankfully for him, someone else in the group already knew her.

"Aria?" Said Serena surprised.

"Serena," Aria said excitedly.

The two girls went up to each other and gave one another a hug.

"I'm sorry, this is Aria the Kalos Queen," Serena introduced.

"Hello everyone, nice to meet you all," said Aria.

Serena then realized what she just did. "Brock I'm so sorry for cutting you off."

"No it's fine. Your friends so it's ok," Brock said relieved he didn't get called out on not knowing her name.

Brock then sat back down on the couch he was sitting on before. Aria saw this and sat down right beside him, snuggling up close and resting her head on his shoulder, causing him to blush bright red.

Some of the gang had to contain their laughter at Brock's reaction. Everyone who hadn't met Aria before then introduced themselves, and Aria explained the events of how she and Brock met and how she ended up at the Pokemon Center. Aria then looked over to Serena.

"So Serena, I know your probably leaving for Rota soon to get married, but is there any chance I can get you to take the title of Kalos Queen?" Asked Aria.

"Um, why would she do that? We all saw that ridiculous contract," asked May.

"Because that contract no longer exists," said Aria with a smirk.

"What!?" Asked Miette, Shauna, and Serena shocked.

"That's right, it's done, as well as Palermo. The showcase board canned her for good, and have asked me to take over in her place. The official announcement will be made next month after I work with some lawyers to make the new contract," explained Aria.

"Congratulations Aria, I know you'll do great," said Serena.

"Thanks. So Serena, is it still a no?" Asked Aria.

"I'm sorry, but I don't want that now," Serena said as she held Ash's hand.

Aria smiled, "oh well. I'll just hold the title until the next Master Class. But then, it's going to be different."

"What do you mean?" Asked Miette.

"The next Master Class winner will take the title of Kalos Queen. But instead of keeping the title, they will only have to hold the title for a year, and then have a choice to defend the title to keep it at the next Master Class," explained Aria.

"Well that sounds nice, so now performers have a choice to keep it or not," said Shauna.

"Well that's my plan anyway. The showcase board seemed to like it, so it will most likely happen," said Aria.

"Honestly after Palermo's contract, I think that would probably keep more performers," added Miette.

"Well it's got to be done soon. The only good thing Palermo did before all this started, was get the Alola region to accept the showcases and sign a three year contract. The chase for the title of Alola Queen starts in six months, so the contract needs to be approved by the Alola representatives before that," Aria explained.

Some of the group then noticed Serena look at Ash and smile. He then smiled back and nodded, resulting in Serena giving him a quick kiss on the lips.

"Ok, what's going on you two?" Asked Misty.

"Well, we had already decided this a few weeks ago, but we're going to honeymoon in the Alola region," said Ash.

"We already booked our reservations at a resort for a month. After that we decided we are going to travel the Alola region and Ash was going to challenge the Alola League. Now Ash just agreed that I'm going to try for the title of Alola Queen now," Serena explained.

"So does that mean you guys finally picked a date?" Asked Iris.

Serena nodded, "the wedding is going to be in four months, and is going to be at the palace."

"We'll be meeting with the royal party planner shortly after we get back to make all the arrangements," Ash added.

The gang talked about various things, the wedding, Alola, and the league and showcases. Gary told Ash the batchelor party was going to happen a few days after they returned. Ash asked what the plan was, but Gary just smiled devilishly and said he wasn't allowed to know until it all started to happen, which left Ash feeling nervous.

Everyone talked happily, until Tierno shot up to his feet and charged angrily as he started to pull his fist back. Everyone looked in the direction he was going, and saw Calem standing there, his eyes closed as he prepared for the impact. Ash quickly sprang into action, jumping up and catching Tierno's fist before it could slam into Calem's face. Calem opened his eyes to see Tierno's fist struggling against Ash's grip.

"What is he still doing free! He should be in jail right now!" Tierno spat.

"Serena and I told Officer Jenny how he helped save Serena on top of Prism Tower, and told her we weren't going to press charges for the kidnapping. Now how about you just sit back down and we hear him out. I doubt he came here to start and trouble," Ash said calmly.

Tierno didn't want to listen to Calem, he wanted to beat him into a bloody mess. His only obstacle was Ash, who seemed to be effortlessly keeping his fist back. Tierno remembered how hard it was for him and Paul to hold Ash back from punching Calem at the the reception, so he knew that Ash could keep him back as long as he wanted. Although he couldn't understand why Ash was protecting Calem now after all he's done. As far as Tierno was concerned, Calem deserved to be rotting in a jail cell for the rest of his life, at minimum.

"Fine," Tierno said through him teeth.

He then relaxed his fist and huffed back to his seat next to Shauna.

"Thank you," Calem said to Ash timidly.

"I only stopped him because Serena asked me to give you a second chance. I still have hope that you'll use that chance wisely," Ash said, then went to sit back down next to Serena.

"Thank you Ash, I will," said Calem, he then looked out at the rest of the group. "I just came here to apologize to you all for the way I've behaved over the last couple of years. There is no excuse for it. I especially owe you an apology Shauna."

Shauna looked at Calem surprised.

"The way I treated you was beyond unacceptable, I should have taken responsibility. And when things went wrong, I should have been there for you. You have no reason to ever forgive me, nor am I looking for forgiveness. I just want to say I'm sorry," said Calem.

Shauna looked away from Calem as tears began to escape her eyes. Tierno wrapped an arm around her to comfort her.

"So what are you going to do now?" Serena asked Calem.

"I don't really know. I just know I don't want to become that person again," Calem replied.

"Maybe I can help you with that. When was the last time you felt truly happy and yourself?" Asked Ash.

Calem looked up as he thought. "I guess that would be when I was traveling through Kalos on my first journey, before I participated in the Kalos League. Just me and Chespin seeing the region and capturing new pokemon."

"Then maybe that's what you should do, travel again. Just you and your Chesnaught. Maybe the best way for you to find yourself, is to lose yourself doing something that makes you happy," replied Ash.

"That sounds like a good idea. I really enjoyed exploring Kalos for the first time. I feel like I've seen just about everything worth seeing in Kalos, I should probably go to a different region," replied Calem.

Ash sighed, "we're going to Kanto when the airport opens back up. If you want, we can give you a lift."

Calem shook his head. "Thanks, but no thanks. I need to do this on my own. Besides, I have enough money to buy a plane ticket, and I feel like I should probably go somewhere where nobody knows who I am. I think I'll leave now, Good bye."

Serena stood up and gave Calem a hug, "good luck Calem. Don't be a stranger, I expect to hear back from you from time to time."

"Will do, and take care," said Calem as he walked off out of the Pokemon Center to find himself.

---------------------------------------------------------

Steamy scenes coming up in this section. You've been warned.

Upon Calem's departure the group gradually got back to their conversations. After a while people were getting tired, and decided to turn in for the night.

Brock stood up from the couch, then bent over slightly as he extended his hand to Aria. "Come with me my Kalosian queen, I will show you to your room."

Aria giggled and took Brock's hand, then hugged his arm, "why thank you my knight."

Brock then, with Aria on his right arm, and her rolling bag in his left hand, lead her to their room for the night. Once at the door Brock opened it and turned on the lights, as he held the door open for her.

"I know it's not exactly a suite like your used to...." Brock started.

"No this is just fine. It reminds me of when I used to travel around the region competing in the showcases," Aria said.

Aria then turned to face Brock, put her hands on his chest, and leaned in to give him a kiss on the lips. Brock's face went bright red from this. Aria then broke the kiss, looked at Brock, and smiled.

"Besides, I've got you and a bed. What else could I need," said Aria.

She then took her bag from Brock's hand. "I'm going to use the bathroom really quick to freshen up."

Aria then turned around and walked into the bathroom, putting a little more than normal swing in her hips as she walked. Brock stood there is a daze, shocked by the events that have just happened. He then snapped back to his senses, and began to make himself a bed on the floor with the comforter, a pillow, and a spare sheet.

After a minute Brock heard the bathroom door open. He turned around and froze at the sight in front of him. Standing in the door way, leaning against the door frame, was Aria, wearing only a purple bra with lace, and a pair of purple lace panties.

Aria looked at Brock and saw what he was doing and pouted. "Were you planning on sleeping on the floor, leaving me all alone in this big bed."

Brock slowly nodded, still in a trance by what he was seeing. Aria shook her head, "no!" She said sternly.

She then proceeded to walked to the bed and laid down on it with her hands over her head, Brock's eyes never leaving her for a second.

"Come my knight, claim your prize," Aria said seductively.

Brock knew exactly what she meant with her words and body language. His parents always told him to wait till marriage before having sex, and he had full intention to listen, before now. In this moment almost everything he was ever told just went out the window. One lesson still ran strong in his head, he reached into his pocket and grabbed his wallet, opened it and pulled out a condom.
Aria smiled excitedly when she saw this, as it meant she was getting what she wanted.

Brock put it onto the nightstand, and in two swift movements, Brock pulled off his shirt and pants, leaving him only in his boxers.

Aria was surprised by this, thinking he must have been wearing tearaway clothes. But that thought quickly disappeared when she saw his body. Brock had nicely toned muscles, down to his six pack abs. They weren't huge, but well defined, showing that he worked out. Aria was definitely caught off guard by this as she wouldn't expect such a toned body from a doctor.

Brock then climbed onto the bed, but before he got to Aria, she quickly flipped him onto his back and got on top of him. She then leaned down and they began to Kalos kiss, as her right hand went down into his boxers, grabbing what she was looking for.

---------------------------------------------------------

Elsewhere, Ash and Serena arrived in there room alone. Pikachu and Sylveon, along with Greninja, Froakie, and Delphox, decided to spend the night in the Pokemon Daycare. Ash wasn't sure why, but it was their choice and he was fine with it.

"You know I think Aria really likes Brock," Serena said as she was taking off her boots.

"That's an understatement. I saw her aura, she seems to be almost as crazy about him as he is about her," Ash replied as he threw his jacket over a chair.

Serena draped her jacket over the same chair as a thought entered her mind.

"You know Ash, the Kalos League is over now," Serena said seductively.

"I know, I won remember," Ash replied confused.

Serena walked up to Ash and began kissing him. Ash happily returned the kiss as she stepped it up to Kalos kissing. Ash then realized what Serena meant as she started to undo his belt, once undone she started on his pants. Ash meanwhile started unbuttoning Serena's outfit. Serena finished with Ash's pants, and with a small tug, brought them to the floor.

A second later, Ash finished with Serena's outfit. He slowly pulled it down, going down with it, until it was at her feet. Ash looked up at Serena in all her glory as she only was wearing a black bra, black cheeky lace panties, and black stockings. Ash had seen Serena in only her under garments before, but for some reason she looked more beautiful at that moment.

Ash touched Serena's legs, and gently caressed them as his hands moved up. Ash leaned forward and gently kissed Serena's stomach, earning a little giggle from Serena. He then stood up, picking Serena up by the butt in the process. Serena wrapped her legs around Ash as she pulled his shirt off and threw it onto the floor.

They returned to Kalos kissing as Ash carried Serena to the bed. As this continued Serena reached behind herself and unclaspped her bra. Upon reaching the bed Ash slowly lowered her down without breaking the kiss. Right after being laid down on the bed Serena broke the kiss. Once Serena did this, Ash backed away slowly so he could see her face better, with a confused look on his.

As he backed away, he noticed a flirtatious smile on Serena's face. She slowly moved more onto the bed, then pulled off her bra and threw it over Ash's head. Serena was only wearing her panties and stockings now. As Ash looked at her nearly naked body he was mesmerized, in all this time of them being a couple Ash had never seen her like this. He looked over Serena's entire body, and only one word came to his mind to describe her, "perfect."

Serena blushed slightly from the comment. Ash then slowly crawled onto the bed, Serena beneath him as he looked up at her, and Serena looked back at him. Their eyes looking into one anothers, not breaking contact as they moved closer to their first time of making love.
