Disclaimers: This little girl does not own Pokèmon...others control their destiny.... ^ . ^ The idea for the story came from something I drew, a dream and the fact that I hate drawing characters in their cannon clothes therefore everyone will be wearing different clothes ^ . ^ And new characters are mine. (That means Lisala, Linn and Ley etc. . . .)
-------------
This is a dark fic and something of an AAMRN, though you won't know it for a while. ^ . ^ I am merging the manga, the anime and the video game so don't be surprised if you don't know where I'm coming up with something. Some history I will be making up. I'm using the technology from the Manga with a few differences. The only thing is that I don't know if Brock has any siblings in the Manga. In the Anime, Brock's father left before his mother died; in my fic Brock's father did not leave. That will enable Brock to be the traveler that he is in the Manga and still have his anime siblings. Thank you J-chan (AKA Yamato Ishinya) for helping me with Brock's siblings. As for Brock's last name I'm using Stone I might change it but for now it is Stone. As far as I can tell there is very little Religion in Pokèmon but there has to be some so, I'm making up some Religious beliefs. Yes, I am aware that there is a prophecy in the second movie but I did not think of that till 24 hours after I started writing this story The Prophecy.
I'd like to thank my Proofreader Dalanar for helping me with grammar. (Even though she knows nothing about Pokèmon.)
And I'd like to thank SynXIX for helping me with everything ^ . ^

__________________________________________________
The world is still in turmoil, but all is looking brighter. Team Rocket still holds sway, but the resistance is fighting back. The first order of business for every one was to make sure the Pokemon Master was healthy enough to fight. That was taken care with a week's rest in the fortress.
He and his kids got to know (and get reacquainted with, in Ash's case) everyone. Delia Ketchum took over taking care of her grandchildren saying "I have not been in their lives, I need to make up for lost time." She then shooed Ash out saying, "You go have fun with your friends...I get to play doting grandmother for the next week or so." Therefore. Ash had no choice but to listen. (Besides, what child can resist his/her mother, even grown children?)
Ash rested for a week and in that time Squirtle went off and found a very welcome face to Ash, a young Lapras who joined him on his journey when he was 11. He explained what he wanted to her and she went off to talk to her school. When she returned she had a school of Lapras with her 100 strong. And now we resume our tale a week after Ash returned to being Ash.
