-1Make Love, Not War

By Zombie Hippie

Author's Notes: Hello, a new Pokemon story, an original one that is not based off of a movie, although I do steal a few things from a few movies, points to people who can figure out what they are! This is an AAMayL story. In this story, Ash becomes a Pokemon Master, gets married to May, and May is one month pregnant with Ash's child. Happy ever after, right? WRONG! You see, Al-Queada attacks Kanto, causing Kanto to enter the War on Terror. And Ash is drafted to be shipped off to Afghanistan! He gets separated from his unit and is rescued by the US Military, and folded into a foulmouthed sergeant's unit. But, this sergeant is Ash's only chance to get out of Afghanistan and back home in time for May to go into labor. This is a story that is not for the faint of heart, with Saving Private Ryan style violence. Royalty in Exile will be updated when I get out of school, but until then, I am going to work on this.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon.

Lights and lasers were everywhere at the karaoke bar that Ash and his girlfriend May were at. Ash had just became Pokemon Master, and he was celebrating with his friends. Ash and May had been dating for five years, and Ash had a surprise fore May. He was going to propose to her! But Ash was a little nervous.

Ash pulled Brock over to the side. "Brock, I need you to help me with something." Brock sat down the bottle of beer that he was drinking. "I'd be happy to help you with anything." he said.

Ash pulled out a small, velvet box and opened it. Inside was a small, diamond ring. Brock smiled. "As much as I would like to marry you, Ash," Brock said. "I think that May would have a problem with that."

Ash gave Brock the finger. "I am not going to dignify that with a verbal response." he said. "Anyway, I have no idea of how to propose to May."

"I have an idea." Brock said. He then bent down and started to whisper a plan to Ash. Ash smiled. He loved Brock's little idea.

Ash went over to the karaoke machine and picked up the microphone. He went over and tapped May on the shoulder. "Hey May." Ash said. May looked at her boyfriend and gave him a small smile. Brock came up. "Don't worry, May, I'll handle this."

Ash and Brock ducked down and Ash began to sing into the microphone.

"You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips." he sang.

"There's no tenderness like before in your fingertips." Brock sang.

Ash and Brock started to sing together to May.

"You try so hard not to show it, baby,

But baby, believe me, I know it, you've lost that loving feeling,

Whoa that loving feeling, you've lost that loving feeling, and now it's gone, gone, gone. Whoa, whoa, bud um bud um bud dum."

Ash had just finished singing when he handed May the ring. "May, will you marry me?" he yelled. May grabbed Ash and pulled him into a passionate kiss.

3 months later…

"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Ash turned to May, lifted up her veil, and pulled her into a passionate kiss. After all the congratulations were made, it was time for Ash and May to share their first dance as husband and wife.

Soon the song came on.

Watching every moment in this foolish lover's game

On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame

Turning and returning to some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love

Never hesitating to become the fated ones

Turning and returning to some secret place to hide

Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say

My love,

Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you, in time you slipped away

When the mirror crashed I called you, and turned to hear you say

If only for today I am unafraid

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching every moment in this foolish lover's game

Haunted by the notion somewhere there's a love in flames

Turning and returning to some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion as you turn my way and say

Take my breath away,

My love,

Take my breath away,

My love,

Take my breath away,

Take my breath away.

Ash and May ended the dance with a passionate kiss. Soon after, it was time for the new couple to go home, so they hopped into the limo that they had rented and sped away, a sign with the words Just Married on the back bumper and strings dragging aluminum cans along the road. (I never quite understood that particular custom, could someone explain it to me?)

2 hours later…

Ash opened the door to his and May's bedroom, and carried May in bridal style. Ash sat her on the bed and began to change out of the tuxedo he was wearing while May was doing the same thing with her wedding dress. No words were spoken as Ash and May launched themselves, almost immediately into a round of kissing and began to make love.

1 hour later…

May awoke next to Ash, and she smiled at her husband. She shook him awake and said, "Ash, did this really happen, or was it just a beautiful dream?" Ash smiled. "It was as real as it gets May." he replied. He gently kissed May. "I love you, Ash," May said. "I love you too, May." Ash responded. Ash and May thought that this was their happy ending. How wrong they would be.

Author's Notes: Well, first chapter finished. Points go out to the reviewer who guesses what movie I stole a scene from, and for naming the song I used for Ash and May's husband and wife dance, and the artist of that song. I will try to keep a steady stream of updates with this one, but I'm not making any promises. Just read and review until then.
