Chapter 1: The Curse!

Ash Ketchum and his friends, Brock, Dawn, and Pikachu, were in a Pokemon Center where the raven-haired boy was getting treated for some scrapes and bruises that he got after rescuing a pokemon from danger.

Once he finished with Nurse Joy, he decided to phone home to find out why he keeps getting hurt.

(On The Phone With Mrs. Ketchum)

He dialed the number before getting a ring or two before she picked up.

They talked for a while before Ash asked the question, causing his mother to sigh.

"What's wrong, Mom?" asked Ash, wondering if she knew something about his luck lately.

"Ash, the reason why you've been getting hurt every time you do something is that it's a curse that the Ketchums have been dealing with for a long time. It's a bad curse too because no matter how careful you are, you are going to get hurt and possibly die from your injuries." said Mrs. Ketchum sadly.

"Mom, why didn't you tell me before?" asked Ash in surprise.

"Because I wanted you to live like a normal boy without thinking about your curse that your name makes you bear." replied Mrs. Ketchum.

The raven-haired boy nodded as he let all of this soak into his brain.

"Alright, Mom. I'm heading home because there's not a lot left to do in Sinnoh. I should be there soon." said Ash, knowing that he was heading home when he got hurt.

"Ok, sweetie. Just be careful and watch yourself." said Mrs. Ketchum, worried about her son.

"I will. I promise." said Ash, smiling to reassure his mother before getting off the phone and heading to bed to get some rest.
