Ash Ketchum- 18

Saria Kensington-30

Joel Berlitz-24

Three blue cloaked figures rode onto the hill overlooking Pallet Town upon their three Horse like pokemon Rapidash. They lowered their hoods.. The one on the left was a brown haired female in her thirties. Her eyes were the color of emeralds. Her name was Saria Kensington. On her back was a long purple staff. On it's top was a light blue gem.

On the right was a young man. He was twenty four years old. He had blue beast like eyes, and medium length brown hair. He wore a silver mask which covered his eyes and right cheek. His name was Joel Berlitz. He wore a silver Luvdisc locket and a thick gold ring around each wrist. He held the locket to his heart, Thinking of the beautiful Waterflower he loved..

The figure in the center had messy raven hair, chocolate brown eyes and a z mark under each eye. His name was Ash Ketchum. Seethed in it's scabbard, behind his back was a golden blade.. It was three years since Ash was last here. He had found out he was adopted. One little search for the truth turned into one wild adventure..

A slight breeze blew to them. Ash smelled a familiar aroma. He couldn't help but smile at the scent of his mother's cooking. Saria and Joel noticed the aroma..

"That smells wonderful.." Saria stated dreamily.

"Indeed, Small town cooking is something that all knights love." Joel stated. Ash just rolled his eyes. Using his Aura, Ash called to Pikachu in his pack..

'Pikachu, We're home pal.'

Pikachu popped his head out of the Ash's cloak and pointed to Pallet.

"Pika chupi! pi Pikapi! (To Ketchup! Sir Ash!)"

Ash smiled at Pikachu's addiction to ketchup. As they rode into town they heard the people whisper.

"That can't be Delia's son can it?"

"He's really grown.."

` "Who's with him?"

"Don't know.."

They eventually came to Ash's home. Ash, Joel, and Saria recalled their Rapidash into their Pokeballs. Ash nervously knocked on the door, waiting for an answer. He was met by familiar voice and a tackle to the ground..

"Ashy!"

Misty Waterflower embraced him and didn't let go. She had let her red hair grow out to her shoulders and she has been Ash's girlfriend for four years.

"Oh Ash! I missed you so much!"

"Mist, I "mist" you too, but please your choking me.." Misty got up and giggled. She was so pleased that Ash came back. As they sat down in the living room, Ash introduced Misty to his new friends. He gestured to Joel.

"Misty, This is Joel Berlitz." Joel bowed his head impatiently. Saria elbowed him.

"Sorry he just misses his girlfriend. He just won't admit it. I'm Saria Kensington by the way. You must be Misty Waterflower. Ash told us a lot about you." She shook Misty's hand. Misty blushed. Before another word could be said a cheerful female voice caught their attention.

"Your finally home!"

Ash's mother. Delia Ketchum stood in the doorway smiling, with tears in her eyes..

I had this Idea bothering me all day. Also I need your help people. Who should be Joel's Girlfriend? Daisy, Violet or Lily? Let me know either in a PM or a review.
