This is a story that ashxryuko27 aka Infinity Ash asked me to make for him. It will have many of the elements from Summer Wars but in the setting of the Infinity Ash stories. I will continue on my own stories as well with the next chapter of MLP season 5 and another chapter of Reborn from the Ashes later this month. Hope you all enjoy this story and remember to add a review or comment below.

And now the news at noon for Monday, July 26th, 2061

Early this morning the Arawashi asteroid probe abandoned its prior path to join up the U.N. Cosmic Fleet near the asteroid belt and took up orbit around the Earth. Although the Arawashi has been plagued with malfunctions over the course of its mission, it's slated to release the capsule of the Matokawa asteroid core samples as scheduled. Meanwhile, in other news the…

Deep inside the central mainframe of OZ; two code workers were doing some routing checks on the system. They are Kenji Koiso and Takashi Sakuma of Kuonji High School in Tokyo, Japan. One of which was feeling depressed with himself as they worked from their dormitory room.

"I was so close to representing Japan." Kenji moaned outload. Takashi gave him a side glance.

"You still depressed over that? Get over it."

"Right at the end, I choked." He continued to groan as he worked on the security measures, but the moaning was getting on Takashi's nerves.

"Seriously, let it go. All this moping you're doing is driving me nuts! Hey, let's choose a theme for this summer. How 'bout girls? Perfect, huh? Watermelon, fireworks, Pokémon safari, and girls, that's summer!"

But Kenji gave out a sigh. "I'll stick to watermelon and fireworks. Hey, it's been working for me so far." Just them the door burst opened making the two students jump in surprise. There in the door was a pretty girl with long light blue hair. Her name is Natsuki Uzumaki.

"Hey, you want a job?" she asked.

"Well, that's kinda what we're doing." Takashi replied.

"You are?" she asked a little surprised.

Takashi smiled and pushed up his glasses. "Yeah. We run maintenance checks on OZ."

"You work for OZ? Really? Awesome!"

"Nah, we're just part-time code monkeys. Pretty routine."

"Well, it was worth a try." Natsuki groaned in frustration and let her head drop some. "Darn it! Well that's it then. I guess I'll just have to deal with it."

Then Kenji jumped to his feet. "Hold on a second, Natsuki! Maybe I can help you." She turned back with hopeful look. But Takashi stood and pointed to the computer.

"Hey, aren't you forgetting something?" Kenji looked back at the screen then sat down in defeat.

"I guess he's right. I'm sorry, Natsuki."

Natsuki frowned but slowly turned back to the door. "That's too bad. It's not even a real job! All you'd have to do is go on a trip out to the country with me."

That perked Takashi's interest. "Wait! I'll do it!" Kenji was shocked. "Huh? You just said ...Well, then, then get us both in!"

Natsuki gave a sly smile. "Two might get complicated." This left both Kenji and Takashi confused. "All I need's one. So, who's it gonna be?"

The next day Natsuki was waiting at the Tokyo Train Station then she saw her 'friend' arrive.

"Kenji! Hey, I'm over here!" Kenji was running up to her a little flushed but happy to see again today. "Sorry I'm late."

"Nope you're right on time. I bet you that Sakuma would have taken all morning."

"Whatever needs doing, just say the word and I'm on it."

"Thanks a lot. For starters, how 'bout grabbing these?" at her feet were large bags filled with souvenirs, presents, toys and other gifts. So, he picked them up and they went over to the ticket both. Natsuki got the tickets. "Two tickets for the 10:45 Sky Train to Viridian City, Kanto of the Pokémon Islands."

"Viridian City in Kanto?"

"Yep! It's great-grandma's birthday party. Our relatives are coming in from all over the world and other realms, so we could use a little extra help. Oh, Viridian City isn't our destination though. We're going all the way to Pallet Town." She gave a cheer poss. Kanji staggered a bit at the news as they moved up the stairs to the stations platforms.

"What? You mean that your great grandma lives in the same town as Ash Ketchum; the Hero of Earth and the Greatest Pokémon Master who has ever lived?!"

Natsuki gave a teasing smile. "Yes, she does; she even knows him personally." Kenji just gaped at her. "How?" he asked as they boarded the Sky Train. They took their seats across the aisle from each other. "Simple she his mom." As Kenji's eyes grew wider and his mouth hanged open. "Which makes me his Granddaughter." The sound of Kenji's scream was all but drowned out by the horn of the train as is left the station and took off to the sky heading to the Pokémon Islands.
