Chapter One: It begins
Ash woke up sweating. He felt like he was forgetting something, but what? Then he realized. He jumped out of his bed, throwing open his closet door and clumsily pulling out a shit and a pair of shorts. "Crap" He said aloud, changing his clothes as fast as he could.
He ran down the stairs, to see his mum putting bread into the toaster. "Why didn't you wake me up"
Today was the first of June. Every year on the first of June, all children over the age of Ten would get given a Pokémon. The league season would last a year, ending on 16th May. Ashs birthday was on the 10th June. Last year he had missed out on getting a Pokémon by ten days. All the other kids in his town had left last year. He was left behind.
He could remember going to Oak, who turned him down. He may have only been Ten days too young, but it was the law. In Ten days Ash would be 11. He was a year late. There where some other kids in the town who turned ten this year, and Ash realized. If he didn't get their soon, he would have to wait another year. He would be nearly 12 if he missed out on this.
His mum didn't answer him, so he asked her again while he looked at the clock. "Why didn't you wake me up"
It was 10:30.
He was meant to be their for 9:45.
"Sorry ash, but I didn't want to wake you. You looked Peaceful"
But ash knew he shouldn't of asked. He already the knew the real answer. She didn't want him to go. He sat down. "Ash, he might still have one left, why don't you go ask him"
"I'm okay" He said. The toaster popped up some toast, and His mum started to spread soft butter along the bread. She bring him over a plate, and he ate slowly. He turned the Television on.
The announcer seems very excited. "Lance, the winner of this years Pokémon league, has decided to face the elite four." Ash sat in wonder watching Lances intense battles.
Everyday they showed a live broadcast of the Elite Four battles. Lance ended up winning, and the announcer said once more "And lance has won the battle."
They didn't broadcast the champion battle on television, they never did. But by next week everyone knew, Lance was the new champion.
Many weeks later Ash was woke up to the sound of his mums voice. "Ash. Last year you stayed because of me, but don't, Go now. Go"
Ash looked at his clock. 9:30.
