Hi this is Digifan. This is going to be my main pokemon fic but don't worry readers of The Lonely Road Lies Ahead that story will be up and running soon again. This story runs after Ash, Brock and Misty have got all 8 badges from the Johto League and it runs through the Johto League

And Now on with the show

JOHTO CHAMPIONS (Prologue)

Ash Ketchum looked on at his challenger Blackthorn Gym Leader Clair the Dragon Master. They were both down to their last pokemon, Clair a Dragonite and Ash his Typloshion.

"Typlosion fire spin" Ash called out

The Fire pokemon went up to Dragonite and swept itself into a wave of fire. Misty and Brock looked on at Ash, Togepi in Misty arms, waving its little arms. As the fire came past Dragonite looked stunned

"Dragonite is unable to battle. The winner is Ash Ketchum and his Typloshion," said the referee. Typlosion ran up to Ash and Ash patted him. Pikachu, who was on Ash's shoulder grinned

"Well done" said the Gym leader "Well here is the gym badge the (insert)".

"Yeah" said Ash. "I have a rising Badge

"Pikachu" said Pikachu

Brock and Misty sighed

"Does he ever learn?" said Misty

"But" said Clair "I do not give gym badges that easily. You will have to go to the Dragons den that is behind this gym and get a Dragon Fang. If you get one you will be able to get this badge. Do you understand?"

"Yes" Said Ash." But I will do it because I will be a pokemon master". He, Brock and Misty went out of the gym

*****************************************************************

Ash Brock and Misty stood at the front of Dragon Den

"How do we get across to the entrance?" mused Misty

"I have an idea," said Ash. He pulls out a pokeball and throws it "Go Noctowl." Ash then grabs Misty and puts her on Noctowls back.

"What about me" moans Brock. He then saw the local Nurse Joy coming out of the pokemon centre. He goes after her

Ash grins "Same old Brock. He then turns to Misty "Lets go"

Ash and Misty step out into the Dragons Den.

"Where is the Dragon Fang" Misty wonders

"Well shall I go one way and you go another" Ash asks her

"Ok " Misty says

Ash takes the left way and Misty takes the right way. Both trainers look for half an hour. Ash runs into some difficulty when he reaches some water, but he asks Totadile to use surf. When he gets to the other side he sees the Dragon Fang. Ash picks it up and then Clair appears

"You have found it. Well done" she says

"Thanks" Ash beams

"You have received the Rising Badge."

Clair gives the badge to Ash and Ash pins it to the inside of his jacket. Misty comes across to Ash

"Have you found it yet," she asks him

"Yes I have. I have the Rising badge"

Instead of being happy for him Misty goes mad

"Why you Ash Ketchum". She then stops when she sees Clair

"You two must be very good friends". She says smiling

"Us /me never" they both huff.

Clair then disappears. Ash then turns to Misty

"Come on lets go. Brock will be wondering where we have gone"

Brock was sulking after the Nurse Joy and the officer Jenny didn't come near him. Then he saw Ash and Misty coming up to him, Pikachu on Ash's shoulder and Togepi in Misty`s arms.

"Well, did you get it?" Brock questioned him

"Yes, I did".

" Well done" Brock congratulated him

"Well where we are we off to now" Misty wondered

"We are off to the Johto league," Ash said. They started to cheer. Suddenly a strange man came up to them

"Excuse me but are you interested in buying a Master ball. It comes very cheap at £100".

"Are you mad". Ash said out loud. Then he said, "At that price, I will certainly buy it".

Ash took some money out of his pocket and paid the man.

"Now are we on the way to the Johto league" Misty said

"Yes we are" Ash said

The trio picked up their belongings and trooped out of the door in Blackthorn City
