After a long journey away from his friends, family, & pokemon.

Ash Ketchum has now returned & was sleeping peacefully until he had a nightmare of what he saw during his journey… His mother!

AH! Ash gasped while breathing slowly & said it was just a nightmare. (Or is it?)

Next day ash decided to take a walk & calm himself down.

While walking around pallet town he saw a light shined on the grass & discovered a small golden shield item with a phoenix on to it. What is it? Ash spoke in his thoughts.

He slowly picked it up & wondered what it is.

Professor oak should take look at this for research & mom might want to use this as her new jewelry necklace. She'll love it! I'd better get home & show it to her! Ash said in his thoughts. After that he went back home.

Back at his house, his mother Delia was gardening the front yard, while her pokemon helper Mr. Mime was sweeping. Suddenly they heard a voice.

Mom! I've got something to show you! The voice happens to be ash while running toward the front bench.

Honey what's the rush? His mother asked.

Mime? Mr. Mime wondered as well

There's something you have to see that I think you'll love! Ash said to his mother while breathing.

What is it? Delia asked but before ash could tell her another voice was heard.

Good morning to you all. Who was none other than Professor Oak. This is still the happy moment in my life of seeing you again my boy. The professor said to ash.

Thanks professor. I know it's been hard for everyone, as well as you professor but I'm home & that's all that matters. Said ash with a happy smile

I'm glad to hear that ash. Said the professor with a smile

Also there's something I think you & mom should see this. Said ash while searching his pocket, he showed them the same emblem he found during his walk.

Mr. Mime, Delia & the professor showed surprised expressions. Oh its beautiful honey! Said Delia

This is a discovery ash! Where did you get it!? The professor asked excitedly.

I found it during my walk & I felt that you could do research on it, & for you mom, i thought of this as your new jewelry present. Ash said after his mother & the professor about the item.

That's very sweet of you honey. Said Delia

But before you do study it professor, I need to wipe it first ok? Ash explains to them while wiping the item.

Suddenly a bright light appeared out of nowhere, but as ash quickly discovers that it is the item that's glowing.

What's happening to me!? Mom! Professor! Help me!

But they couldn't see him because of the bright light then after the light faded… so did ash.

Delia, the professor, & Mr. Mime were shocked before they're eyes. No. He's gone. Probably for good. Was all that Delia said as she kneels down to the ground having tears in her eyes. Don't say that He will find a way back! He always said to be the very best that no one ever was. The professor said while trying to cheer Delia up with Mr. Mime agreeing with him. Mime! Mime! Realizing they're right. Delia rose up with a serious look on her face. You're both right! He never lets us down & he always finds a way until the end! the professor as he smiles along with Mr. mime as he agrees. Mime!

Also smiling, Delia looked at the sky while she sadly thinks of wherever her baby boy is at.

Honey please be okay. Wherever you are. Delia said in her thoughts.

Meanwhile in a unknown world

Around at night time in a huge city, the young kanto native was lying on the soft grass unconscious. But then out of nowhere a four legged blue creature sees him & walks closer to him & rubbed its head to his face until a voice was heard.

Bronx don't go to far! said a small green creature along with five other creatures taller than him, along with a woman who shares the same hair & eye color as ash. But as soon as they catch up to their beast, they were surprised to see ash on the floor. Then suddenly the leader of the mysterious creatures who happens to be purple skin, placed his hand on to ash feeling his warm face.

He's alive. Take him back to the castle. Until he has awakened, he has a lot to answer. The leader told his clan as he carries ash in his arms to fly back to the castle he spoke of.
