Ash's Return:

Chapter 1:

Home Again

It's been six years since Ash finished the Jhoto League and went off on his own never to be seen again. Misty and Brock spent years trying to track him down going on every single lead they had but had know luck at all. That was until Misty got an unmarked letter for Ash stating that he would be coming back to Kanto soon.

It was early morning and Misty slowly awoke from bed and quickly got dress. Misty was now 18 and looked at lot different then before. She was 5'6 with long beautiful red hair that flowed all the way down her back. She had a great figure and had filled out really nicely. She wore a short blue formfitting t-shirt with a shirt blue mini skirt that ended at her mid hips. She was so happy to finally be able to see her old friend again and was so exited she didn't get any sleep the night before. All she could think about was what would he look like? Would he remember her? Not to mention that she decided she finally tell him her true feeling today that she couldn't six years ago. She then told her sister she be going out for a couple days and left the gym walking to the Pokemon Center where she meet her other friend. She ran up to the Pokemon Center and saw him standing there.

"Hey Brock," Misty shouted waving to him. Brock smiled at her and waved back to her. She smiled seeing the tall man. He looked so different now then when they were last with Ash. Brock had started working out and you could tell as you for see the form of his six-pack through his brown t-shirt. Brock was now a well know breeder but some thing about him would never change like his a hair cut and clothes, oh and his obsession with girls she noticed as he started hitting on the first girl who walked past him. After she kindly turned him down Brock ran over to see her.

"Wow Misty you look great," Brock said.

"Thanks Brock," Misty replied blushing. "I just hope Ash notices. Today I'm finally going to tell him how I feel."

"I'm sure you make Ash jaw drop," Brock replied. "He is a guy after all."

"You really do know just what to say Brock," Misty replied hugging her friend. They the made there way to Pallet Town arriving at Ash's house.

"Wow I can't remember the last time we were here," Brock said to himself.

"Yeah it's been two years right," Misty replied smiling seeing Ash's house. "I wonder if he's home yet. Misty and Brock then walked down to Ash's to get a big surprise as a Houndour jumped out of landing on top of Brock knocking him to the ground.

"Wow Ash your really getting slow," A male voice said for the side of the house. He then walked out with a huge smirk on his face. He was tall about 6'2 with short black hair and black eyes. He had to good build and looked like he worked out. He wore a long black trench coat over a black t-shirt with black baggy jean with four chains on them and combat boots to finish it off. "Your not Ash."

"No I'm not," Brock shouted.

"Houndour down," the boy said as the Pokemon got off Ash

"Who are you?" Misty asked looking at the new guy. "How do you know Ash?"

"I'm Brandon Striker," the boy replied. "I'm Ash's great rival and the best Pokemon train on Tokyo region."

"Yeah I knew you looked familiar," Misty replied. "I saw you in Poke Girl Magazine. They had an article on the coolest Pokemon trainers. The one all girls want to date. I believe you were number 2. Right under Ash but there was a picture of him in the magazine. But that was three years ago and since then it's said you both disappeared"

"Well not really," Brandon replied. "For those three years me and Ash explored a new region which isn't very well know at all."

"Wow Ash sure seemed to be busy these past three years," Brock said. "He must be pretty powerful by now."

"But he's know where near as strong as Brandon," a female voice said for behind them. They then turned to see 14-year-old girl. She was about 5'2 with long blonde hair and deep blue eyes. She had a normal figure for her age and wore a white sleeveless shirt with a pink skirt that went down to her mid thighs.

"And you are?" Misty asked looking at the girl.

"I'm Alice Mizuki Brandon traveling partner and the president of his fan club," the girl said smiling. "Brandon is truly the greatest trainer in the world."

"Fan girl alert," Misty said under her breath.

"Well you're an Ash fan girl right," Brock replied grinning.

"Well maybe a little," Misty replied blushing. The door of the house then opened and Ash's Mom came out.

"Misty, Brock," Ash's Mom said walking outside. "How long have you been waiting there."

"Not long," Misty replied. "We just got here a minute ago."

"Well come on in," Ash's Mom replied. "Ash just called he should be home pretty soon."

"Okay," Misty replied walking to the door with Brock. She then turned to Brandon and Alice. "Hey are you to coming."

"What?" Brandon replied surprised. "I'm sure Misses Ketchum wouldn't mind."

"Of course it's fine," Ash's Mom replied. "Any friend of Ash's is welcome."

"Wow thanks," Alice said grabbing Brandon hand. "Let's go." The group waited about two hours talking until there was a knock at the door.

"I'm coming," Ash's Mom said going to the door.

"Ash is finally here," Misty, thought as her heart began to race as she got up and ran to the door as Ash's Mom opened it revealing Ash. He looked a lot different then she remembered but that was to be inspected. He was 6'0 tall with uncombed black hair, which was cover by a new hat he got in the Tokyo region. He wore a black leather jacket over a black t-shirt with baggy black jeans.

"Hey guys what's up," Ash said walking into the house a huge grin on his face.

"Oh Ash," Ash's Mom shouted giving her son a hug. "It's so good to see you."

"I'm glad to see your doing great to," Ash replied hugging his mom back.

"Oh Ash," Misty said to herself smiling.

"Oh Ash all your friends came to see you," Ash's Mom said letting go of his son.

"Really," Ash replied looking into the living room seeing everyone.

"Oh Ash," Misty said know long able to control herself as she ran over hugging him. "I missed you so much. You never even called or wrote you jerk."

"I missed you to Misty," Ash replied hugging her back. "I sorry I didn't call I just got so caught up in everything."

"I guess I could forgive you?" Misty replied letting go of him.

"I'm glad," Ash replied.

"Hey Ash long time no see," Brock said getting up. "What the hell have you been doing all this time?"

"Hey Brock it great to see you again man," Ash replied. "Pikachu going to be so thrilled to see you guys."

"Yeah where is your little fur ball?" Brandon said getting up.

"Wow I wasn't excepting you two to show up," Ash said. "I must be pretty luck to have the great Brandon Striker hunt me down like this."

"Yah Ash where is Pikachu" Misty asked looking around.

"Oh he waiting outside with a friend of mind," Ash replied. "Brandon and Alice know her. So the rest of you guys please make her feel welcome." Ash then opened the door. "Hey guys come in." A few second later a girl about 5'4 came in. She had long beautiful black hair that went down to her thighs with sparkling red eyes. She wore a sleeveless white shirt with a black mini skirt and two inch high heels. The girl looked at everyone holding Pikachu in her arm. "Guys I'd like you to meet Melissa. She been traveling with me for to years." Before Ash could go on Brock was into action taking one of Melissa hands.

"Hi I'm Brock," Brock said hearts forming in his. "I've searched many regions looking in search of my Princess but it seems my search ends here."

"Oh your so sweet just like Ash said," Melissa replied blushing. "But I'm sorry you'll have to keep looking. "I'm already taken. Right Pikachu."

"Pika," Pikachu replied.

"That's right Brock," Ash said. "Melissa my girlfriend."

"Ash's girlfriend," Misty thought as she felt her heart burst into little pieces
