A future divine, or something like that…

Prologue story thingamabobs (can you believe that's a real word?).

The start of this ff is 9 years since Ash came back home from going to the Sinnoh region. Since that's a long time for stuff to happen, I'll be giving as short a summary as possible as to what happened to all the important ppl (like Misty & Ash)& some of the not so important ppl (like Prof. Oak & Tracey…just not them). Since Ash's is probably gonna be the longest, I'll save his for last if I can. Hmm…scratch that I'll type a part of Ash's then do everyone else's before finishing his.

Oh, and another thing. Remember that this is 9 years into the future so they are most all adults. The ages are as follows:

Ash- 23

Misty- 23

Brock- 27

May- 20

Max- 16

Drew- 21

Dawn- 19

Gary-24

I think you should get the idea. These are the only characters I can think of that are of any importance to the fic right now, I'll update when I come up with more if any.

Ash: After returning to Pallet town after his adventure in Sinnoh, Ash stayed there for a week or so. Brock had gone back to Pewter city to make sure the Gym there wasn't ruined again & Dawn returned home to her Mom. Because of that, Ash was once again alone when he decided that he would go to the Hantai region (region I made up that's near the other side of the Pokemon world). His mother was surprised but supported him with a new outfit, new backpack, & a side pack big enough to store a Laptop safely complete with said laptop to help keep up his communications from being so far away. Soon he left with plenty of gear & plenty of money on an indirect flight to the Hantai region. Half a year after arriving Ash returned home with the second place trophy in the Hantai Pokemon league. A party was thrown were all his friends were invited welcoming him back. His mother forced him to stay until everyone was able to enjoy his return. Soon after though, Ash left to the Fukai region, a neighboring region of Hantai. He continued this pattern except this time he brought home the third place trophy in the Fukai Pokemon league before heading off again. He came back home six more times after that, each time bringing a first place trophy from each new region (obviously getting way more powerful & skilled with each win). However, after that he simply started mailing the 1st place trophy's back home, along with some presents & souvenir's for his friends.

Hmm. I typed a bit more then I was wanting too…oh well, there's still more to type about Ash's apparent winning streak.

Misty: Misty mainly had to stay at the Gym because her sister's were taking an increasing number of trips, but everytime she learned Ash was coming back she ensured she would be there in Pallet Town waiting for him along with his mother. But after he had stopped coming back, she had taken to making time for, scarce at first but gradually became far more frequent, trips to Ash's house to sit & talk with his mother about various topics.

Wait…there's also a bit more to write about Misty too…if this keeps up I'll just have to write a second session for everyone.

Brock: Brock spent most of his time traveling & training to become the greatest pkmn breeder, however it was always to the same places. The Pewter City Gym was his main one (obviously) & occasionally he would visit Queen Pike Lucy (the third to last frontier brain I believe it was). He would sometimes visit the Ketchum household & the Cerulean Gym & even various places in Johto as well. And since he had a noticeable tendency of keeping track of everything, he was one of Ash's two Primary correspondents. The other being Mrs. Ketchum.

Gary: I won't say much but I will say that Misty (since this is a Pokeshipping ff, she cares deeply about Ash) everytime Misty heard about the next reckless thing Ash did, usually stuff about him nearly losing his life, she took it out on Gary whenever she could for no apparent reason. This also helped Gary forget he ever thought she was cute & fear her…so much so that he started keeping tabs on her so he would never be in the same city at the same time. Also Gary went into hard-core training when he discovered how far ahead Ash had apparently gotten.

Crap, I meant not to say much but I almost said as much as I said with Brock! 'Horror face'. Oh, well.

May: Though she wasn't able to see Ash everytime he came back, she did have her own ring of successes by winning three more grand festivals, two of them beating Drew in. After winning the third, May & Drew decided to start traveling together which really started to spark their relationship (& just in case if I forgot to mention it on the story description, this is also a contestshipping ff, just not with any good stuff, or at least it's not planned). After traveling together for several years they become official boy/girlfriend. A few years later after Drew's 21st B-day he proposes to May & she accepts. Most everyone was at the wedding except Ash, who of course was off winning another Pokemon league. Although when he heard the news he sent a wedding present their way. They still enter contests of course, but for some reason they always end up fighting in the final round…

Drew: I'm sure you can infer what he's been through by reading May's.

Max: After becoming an official pkmn trainer, he easily beat the Gym's & most other trainer's, but his quick losses at the Hoenn Pokemon league keep on proving that there's far more to battling then having the perfect strategies. Unfortunately he has never truly been able to comprehend that & is easily capable of being beaten by anyone with enough skill.

Dawn: I don't got anything for her cause I don't know the whole 'Sinnoh story' (if it can be called that). I don't got the game cause I'm poor & my parents haven't bought me a game since I was eight I think…& the episodes are at seven PM which so happens to be when all my other stuff happens to be at (Karate, tutoring, physiological classes, etc. not that I need any of them, they're just required so that the idiots in charge know I'm not gonna be the next Virginia Tech massacre, oh & I'm sorry if mentioning that hurt anyone's feelings. Well, excluding Karate cause I want that so I can actually prevent my near fatal fights with my bro [exaggeration so you know). Whoa, I just realized I just said a lot about myself… good thing I wasn't name specific or I could be in trouble…not sure with who though…why I am I typing like this? Someone hit me till I'm unconscious so I can get on with the fic! 'Misty walks in with her mallet & pounds me into the ground'

"Is that good?" Misty said curiously, holding her mallet high incase she needed to strike again.

"Yeah, that's fine. You might want to stay here incase I get off subject again." I said weakly

"Okay."

By the way, that's probably gonna be the only humor related thing I'm gonna write on purpose, even though I wasn't planning on that until like a minute ago.

Anyway, That's all the character's I can think of that might mean anything to ppl reading this fic. If there's someone else you would like to know what happened to them, if I know who they are I'll add their story here relative to the fic or try to anyway.

SMACK!

"OWW! Misty! What was that for?!"

"Aren't you forgetting something?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Scroll up, look underneath your paragraph for Ash & your paragraph for me."

"I still don't…oh yeah! The extra that I decided not to mention in those paragraphs, thx Misty."

"No prob, Maxley"

"…um…first off, that's my brothers line, second WHERE THE DID YOU EVEN HEAR THAT NAME?!!! Your from Pokemon, Maxley is from an Xbox game called Fable …big gap there!"

SMACK! "Just do the Paragraphs, already. I thought you actually cared about these sweet, poor, innocent (cough, cough) readers of yours?"

"Yeah, but I'm not gonna lose my dignity in the process…especially since I'm the writer!!"

'Misty lifted the mallet getting ready to-'

"Ok, ok…" I stopped & thought for a second "why'd I just make you seem like such a bad person?"

"Because you are one."

"Shut it or I'll change this to an anti-pokeshipping fic"

'Misty shuts up, puts her mallet away, & takes out a banner saying "Rahi-1 is the best writer I'm currently employed under"'

"Well, at least it's truthful…" I said doubtfully

Sorry for making another slight (not so) humor scene I'm bored right now so plz forgive me for dragging it out. Here are the extra info thingamabobs:

Ash: After traveling so much, Ash had decided to start having a more permanent team of Pokemon. Pikachu & Charizard were the first two to go on it (even though Pikachu was technically never off). Eventually he added Sceptile to it as well. At this point, Ash was mainly looking for rock, ground, water, &/or ice types to help balance it out. After doing a little bit of research, Ash added his Donphan to his team. As he traveled he tried out each new Pokemon he caught, trying to find from personal experience their strengths & weaknesses. Eventually he caught a beldum & after it evolved, & harnessed it's true psychic & steel ability's realized it's true worth & added it to the team. It later evolved into Metacross. The final addition to Ash's official team was a legendary capture…no seriously; the Pokemon he caught for it was legendary. The legendary North wind ice type Pokemon Suicune made Ash's final addition to his team, the one that earned him several Grand Champion titles of various Pokemon league's.

Oh, yeah & Team Rocket (James, Jessie, & Meowth) had long since stopped going after his Pikachu, mainly because they couldn't get a flight to follow him on. So they decided to start getting other targets & ended up getting jailed by Officer Jenny (so yay! No annoying Team Rocket! Plus I don't need to remember about them…or well I? I'll look into that later)

Misty: although she wouldn't admit it except when she was talking calmly with Mrs. Ketchum, Misty made sure she knew every one of the competition's Ash was entering & ensured that she both got a copy of it (which she hid in her room so her sisters wouldn't try & force out of the habit or something) & saw it with her own on eyes on the T.V. Through these competition's, she was able to, at the very least, get a glimpse at how Ash had been changing. Also the more she watched the more she knew she wouldn't stand a chance against him; he had become way too good. Through this she saw that Ash matured a lot into an adult more then worthy of the title of Pokemon master…he just had to get. It also inspired her to train even harder for the hopes of still being good enough for, if only at the least, one of Ash's Pokemon & because of it she soon became equal & surpassed all of her sisters, & not only that, but also got rid of the label that had long befallen the Gym as 'the easiest Gym to beat'. No where near that anymore, uh-uh. The label that replaced was even more surprising 'one of the hardest Gym's to beat'. It made her proud & it made her sisters proud too.

And I just realized I was going into way more detail then I meant too. Weird. Anyway sorry to keep on holding you up, it's about time you finally get reading the story don't cha think? Then get to it!  Just push the little arrow facing to the right at the bottom right of the screen to finally begin reading.

Edited Author's Note: as of today, 7/14/07, I have up to chapter 6 completed. I will give the first chapter tomorrow (7/15/07), and the day after that (7/16/07) I'll give the second chapter. It will continue, with me giving an update a day, until reaching chap 6. I may or may not, end up giving the extras before finishing chap 7 or 8, but I'm hoping that any & all comments will help to remain focused enough to type. Who knows, maybe I'll be able to finish both chapters before I finish posting? P.S. exactly 3 pages used on this thing, just thought you'd like to know.
