Ash was next to a dying Serena, sobbing. She had been fatally wounded.
Clemont and Bonnie were a few meters away, in disbelief. They had just witnessed Yveltal fire an Oblivion Wing attack at Ash, only for it to be intercepted by Serena.
"Serena… You can't… You can't die! Please stay with me…" Ash pleaded.
"I… can't…" Serena managed. "I'm… sorry…"
Tears dripped down Ash's cheeks.
"Ash… Thank you. For everything…" Serena said with a smile.
"It's my fault. I asked you to travel with me…" Ash said with guilt in his voice.
"Don't say that…" Serena squeaked. "Travelling with you made me happy, and gave my, however short, life meaning. I wouldn't have it any other way…"
"Serena… I'll miss you…" Ash choked up.
"I'll miss you, too…" Serena was almost completely devoid of life now. "I love you…"
Serena lost all life energy, but not before Ash could kiss her. "Serena… I love you, too…"
Ash was remorseful. Remorseful that he couldn't save Serena, remorseful that she had taken the attack for him, and, most of all, remorseful that he didn't recognize her crush earlier. That all hopes of a romance were lost.
Ash looked around to see how everyone else were dealing with the said situation. Bonnie was crying, Clemont comforting her while also tearing up. Yveltal was still fighting… Xerneas.
'XERNEAS?' Ash thought. Yes, Xerneas could revive Serena.
"Xerneas, I'll hold off Yveltal!" Ash cried. "You revive Serena!"
"Xer!" Xerneas agreed.
"I'll do more than hold you off!" Ash yelled angrily to Yveltal. "This is for Serena!"
Ash and Pikachu charged towards Yveltal, taking each attack head-on.
Pikachu's Pikachunite reacted to Ash's Mega Ring. Pikachu Mega-evolved into Mega Pikachu. It was still electric type, but had the levitate ability, floated on mist, and also had a steel tail. There was an electric aura surrounding it. Most impressive of all, it had gained 20 000 000 base stat points in all 5 (not including HP) stats. Rather than most Pokémon that got a 100 point base stat total boost, Pikachu had gotten 100 000 000.
"Pikachu! THUNDERBOLT!" Ash yelled in pure rage.
It was super effective.
A critical hit!
The wild Yveltal fainted.
Pikachu returned to its normal form, while Serena was waking up.
"Ash? What's going on?" Serena asked. She remembered nothing.
But Ash did. He wanted to protect her from the fact that she was dead a few moments ago.
"Oh, nothing, honey." Ash said as casually as someone who had killed death itself could. "Listen. I know I'm dense sometimes… but I know how you feel about me. I'd like you to know that I feel the same way."
"Awww" Serena purred.
Ash held her tightly in her arms and Serena welcomed the embrace. They passionately kissed. They'd never, ever, ever be apart.
And all was well.
The End
