Legacy
Chapter 1: New Destiny.
Ash: 20
May: 19
It has been a while since I have done a main story for Ash and May, the first one I did wasn't so good but that was a learning curve for me, this one will be better than Legend Hunter and will have a better story to it.
Disclaimer: pokemon and the character don't belong to me.
It was a warm, balmy day in Castelia City with the people walking around the large metropolis, the people didn't notice the suspicious man wearing mostly black with his face covered up by an ominous mask, he walked slowly through the not wanting to gather too much attention, 'it seems like this city has what I am after,' he thought while turning his gaze to the harbor, "soon I will change the course of the world's history," he whispered to himself while coldly looking around the city until he reached the furthest dock of the city.
"Hello Sir, is there anything I can do for you?" a man wearing a sailors outfit asked the mysterious person.
The mysterious person glared at the sailor and laughed at him, "I want to commandeer your vessel," the man replied darkly as the man tried to prevent him from taking the boat, "sadly for you, I don't need you alive to get what I want," the man looked at the man with fear as the man walked up to him before he was grabbed by the man by the throat and picking him up, he laughed manically as the man started to struggle for freedom while the people continued to walk by, "the people are too scared to do anything," he said before walking over to the end of the pier with the man in his grasp, "this is where we say goodbye," the man said before dropping the near lifeless man into the waters of the city harbor.
The man walked up to the boat and used the key to start the ignition, he steered the boat away from the harbor and towards his destination. Eventually he noticed a tower appearing over the horizon and noticed that there were no people on the island.
He tied the boat at the pier on the island and started his journey towards the center of the island, "so quiet, good there are no witnesses," he said while talking off his mask, the left side of his face had a large scar with one eye colored green and the other colored red, "Electivire open up the door for me with Thunder Punch," he ordered his large yellow pokemon. The powerful electric type unleashed a power blast of electricity blowing open the doors allowing him to walk inside the tower.
Meanwhile in a small room a cream colored pokemon with red 'V' shaped ears as playing with the toys it had been playing with for many years until it heard a powerful explosion which shook the tower, the dust started to fall from the ceiling causing the wide blue eyes of the pokemon looked around in concern as another explosion ripped through the building yet again causing the pokemon to float up to discover what was going on, after sensing the dark presence the small pokemon went into hiding before the doors blew off the hinges sending it flying to the back of the room while Victini watched in horror as a person in black clothes walked in calmly.
"Victini, come out of hiding, or this place will cease to exist," the man said while walking around the room containing the toys, lounge chairs, desks and a TV set, he walked around to the TV and pushed it to the ground destroying it instantly, "come on little pokemon, I need your help to take over the world," he said with a smirk before knocking over some furniture.
Victini watched in dismay as its room was being destroyed in front of it, the victory pokemon closed its eyes for a moment as the noise of the destruction of the room, "maybe if I call out a pokemon to help me out, go Unbreon," the man called out for a mostly black quadruped pokemon with yellow rings around its legs and eyes, "use Shadow Ball," he instructed the dark type pokemon with supreme confidence.
The dark type unleashed a powerful sphere of ghostly energy hitting the bed at one end of the room destroying a few items in the way, the small pokemon opened its eyes and made a rush for the door, the man quickly noticed this and recalled his pokemon to start chasing down the victory pokemon, he pulled out a pokeball and called out another pokemon, "Gyrados, attack with Hydro Pump," he called out for the next attack against the fleeing legendary pokemon. A powerful pulse of water rushed towards the scared pokemon but barely dodged it as part of the tower fell away from the area causing the tower to start crumbling away.
As the chase continued the small pokemon finally made it out of the tower but was soon stopped by another of the man's pokemon, "Electivire attack with Thunder Punch," the man ordered quickly. The powerful electric pokemon punched the legendary pokemon with a thunderous fist knocking it to the gound, the legendary pokemon slowly got back up and used it's psychic powers to blow the thunder type pokemon away, "amazing power for such a tiny creature," the man proclaimed while walking up to the small pokemon.
The victory pokemon got off the ground and flew off, the man smirked as he recalled his pokemon, "let the hunt begin," he declared while walking up to the boat calmly, 'it's injured so there is no way that tiny pokemon will get far,' he thought while following the direction VIctini went to. The man started the boat and started his journey back towards the main city.
Pallet Town
A male trainer was resting on his bed with a tennis ball in hand thinking about his days of traveling with his friends through the regions of the pokemon, he threw the ball and caught it before the ball hit his face. he stretched his arms out noticing his starter pokemon sleeping at the end of the bed, he looked around his room with all the souvenirs he had gathered from his travels, he looked up towards the set of draws with his trophy and a small Teddiursa doll next to it, "I wonder how May is going," Ash thought out loud before swinging around placing his feet on the ground, he sat up and looked towards the window seeing the snow building up on the window ledge.
Ash walked towards the door of his room and took another chance to look at the gift his friend gave him. He heard his mother humming while rushing down the stairs before his memories of the battles he had faced flowed back to him.
Before Ash walked out of the door the phone started to ring, "Ash, will you pick that up for me?" Delia requested loudly as she continued to prepare dinner for them.
Ash walked up to the phone and received the call, on the monitor was a young woman with brown hair, blue eyes wearing a red shirt and black jeans, "hello Ash, I was hoping to talk to you," she said with a proud smile.
"May, it's been a while, you have changed a lot from the old days," Ash stated happily, "not only has your clothes changed, your hair has gotten longer as well," Ash commented with joy as the young woman started blushing from his compliments, "hey May are you okay? You seem to have gotten a little red," Ash questioned the woman quietly.
May waved her hands in front of the screen denying the fact that she was blushing, 'as dense as ever,' May thought while hitting her face to stop herself from blushing, "Ash, I was hoping that we could….um you know, travel together again," May enquired while the blush started to return while the trainer listened perplexed at what was happening.
"Sure thing, I was thinking about wanting to revisit some of the regions and capture some of the pokemon," Ash replied with confidence as his pokemon jumped on his shoulder, "I was getting a little bored with doing nothing," Ash explained his situation to May.
"Alright meet me at Lilycove City, then we will chose a region from there," May said while clenching her fist with joy and turned away from the screen, 'perfect this will be the perfect chance for me to get closer to Ash,' May thought with a smile while trying to contain her joy.
Ash watched this and tilted his head, "um May, what are you doing?" Ash asked the brunette as he scratched his head in a puzzled manner.
May quickly turned around with a nervous smile, "nothing Ash, just…getting something to help my mom out, yeah just helping my mom out," the brunette tried her hand at lying and failing at it miserably, "I will see you in a week," May commented with a smile, 'without my nerdy brother and that annoying Brock,' May thought while getting ready to close off the call, "I will see you until then," May said as the two said their goodbyes again.
Ash remained near the phone perplexed by the way May was acting at the other end, "May was acting pretty strangely," Ash commented before hearing the giggles of his mother, "what's so funny mom?" Ash asked his mother who tried her best to continue making dinner.
"Nothing Ash, I think this is something you need to find out on your own," Delia commented while putting the tray in the oven, she heard Ash walking towards the exit and turned around with a smile on her face, "I can't believe that my Ash has a girlfriend," Delia said happily but also knew that her son wasn't the brightest in the topic of love.
Ash walked through the snow as the chilly breeze blew around the small town making the trainer shiver from the chilly conditions, "He buddy, this weather is getting really cold," Ash commented while trying to keep himself warm from the cold weather. "It was great hearing from May again," Ash commented while still picturing the woman in his mind, "she definitely has gotten prettier since we last saw her," Ash stated while the trainer trudged through the snow with Pikachu on his left shoulder.
After a short amount of time walking through the snow Ash finally made it to the professor's lab, Ash knocked on the door with hopes to see the local professor but there was no response, the trainer walked around to find out what was going on, he peered through the window to find that there was no lights on in the lab, "oh right almost forgot, Professor Oak is on Vacation, picked a really good time to do so," Ash commented while getting out of the professor's property and walking back to his mother's house.
After walking home through the snow, he noticed that his bag was on the front porch, "Ash, I take it you want to travel the world, so while you were out, I prepared your bag for you," Delia explained leaving her son astonished at the quick packing that his mother performed while he was gone, "just remember to bring home a souvenir," Delia requested before closing the door on the trainer.
"Geez Mom was in a rush to get me to travel again," Ash told his partner pokemon before grabbing his backpack and walked back towards the front gate of the house, 'she was always happy to find that I was enjoying the sites of the world,' Ash reminisced as he opened the gate and walked out away from his mother's house, "Pikachu, this might be the last time we see this place, when we finished traveling with May, I will be getting a place of my own," Ash commented while the electric pokemon looked at his friend in shock unable to believe what he was hearing from his trainer, "I know, but we need to grow up sometime buddy," Ash stated while the electric pokemon while walking through the snow and towards the exit of the small town.
Petalburg City
May walked out of her family's and towards the forest with her only pokeball in her hand, "I want to see what other pokemon I can capture," May told herself while looking back to see her mother and father walking out of the house to see her off, "mom, dad I will see you soon," May told her parents with a confident grin.
"Take care May," Norman instructed his daughter while placing his arm around his wife while watching their daughter leaving once again, "well at least we will be alone for a while," Norman told his wife with a smile as they got ready to walk into their house hoping to spend more time on their own.
"Should we tell her she is going the wrong way?" Caroline asked her husband with a cheeky smile.
"No, she will find out on her own," Norman replied with a chuckle as he closed the door behind him.
Meanwhile May entered the Petalburg Forest to see the Beautiflies flying around the forest canopy and the slakoth's resting in the trees while the Wurmple's slowly crawled across the forest floor, "it's been a while since I've been through here," May told herself while looking around some more while thinking about the day she first captured her Beautifly, 'it was after I found out about Pokemon Contests,' May thought as memories started to flood back into her mind.
"I had found out what I wanted to do during my travels," May reminded herself while pulling out an item from her pocket. She pulled out a half ribbon from her pocket and looked at it for a moment, "apart from the phone conversation," May started as she closed her blue eyes and remembered the battle she had with Ash, "I wonder how much stronger you have gotten," May wondered out loud while keeping her eyes shut she stood still and reminisced on the last battle she had against the trainer.
May opened her eyes and ran towards the exit of the forest, this was until she realized that she was heading in the wrong direction that she started to panic, "oh crap, I am supposed to head to Slateport City," May said before turning around and started running back towards the forest, "this is great, I was so excited about seeing Ash again, I take the long way around," May stated while rushing through the forest trying to reach the other end of the forest, "why didn't mom and dad say something?" May asked while continuing to panic as she rushed through the forest with the people looking at her strangely and the pokemon looking at the woman wearing mostly red still freaking out from her mistake.
May exited the forest and continued to run back to her home city, she rushed through the streets and towards the other end of the city to get to Oldale Town, 'crap, I am going to miss my ship to Lilycove City, so much for doing some shopping while waiting for Ash,' May thought a she finally made it to the other end of the city. She quickly ran down the road towards her destination before collapsing onto the ground from exhaustion, "this is just great, how am I supposed to get to Slateport City to get my ship to see Ash?"
"Well if it isn't my good friend May," a familiar voice enquired causing May to turn around to see her friend with messy green hair, wearing a purple shirt over a black jumper and light blue jeans.
"Hey Drew, it's been a while," May commented with a frown, "sorry I am in a bit of a rush to Slateport City," May professed while restarting her journey to the city.
"Well how about I help you out," Drew suggested with a smile as he picked one of his pokeballs, "you can borrow my Flygon, but you must return it when you reach Slateport City, I will be waiting in Petalburg City," Drew commented as May called out her friend's pokemon , "Flygon, you must help May get to Slateport City," Drew instructed his powerful green pokemon with confidence before he started to walk away leaving his dragon type in the care of May, before heading into the city Drew turned around with a smirk, "who are you going to see?" Drew asked his friend with a knowing smirk.
"I am going to see Ash," May retorted as she looked at her half of the ribbon.
"I knew it, you're in love with him aren't you!" Drew asked with a cheeky grin.
May looked away with her face starting to turn a crimson red, "I am not!" May yelled at her friend as he burst out into laughter.
"Yeah right, your face tells all," Drew pointed out while he continued to laugh at the brunette as she clenched her right hand in anger, "oh come on May, you really should tell him how you feel," Drew instructed his friend.
"Drew if you want to see your Flygon again, then you better shut up!" May threatened the green haired coordinator while glaring at him with what seemed like daggers shooting from her eyes, she turned around to look at the mystic pokemon and got ready to climb onto the dragon type pokemon, "just remember to be at the Pokemon Center," May instructed her rival.
"Yeah I will be there," Drew promised while restarting his journey to the city.
May nodded at the dragon type pokemon, the pokemon took off and flew quickly plassed the route and towards the small town, 'thank you Drew,' May thankfully thought as the green pokemon flew towards the destination with May on its back. May looked down to see the passing town before heading towards the route on the way to Slateport City, "Flygon, if you need a break just land alright," May instructed her friend's pokemon warmly, the mystic pokemon nodded while continuing the flight.
The dragon type pokemon started to get exhausted as it was helping May get to the next city, "Flygon you can land now," May told the dragon type pokemon with a smile. The dragon type obliged and flew slowly towards the ground, the pokemon land on its feet and allowed for May to jump off, "thank you Flygon," May said appreciatively, she recalled the dragon type pokemon and walked into the city looking for the Pokemon Center.
May eventually made it to the building with a red roof while holding her friend's pokeball, she walked up to the phone and called the Pokemon Center in Petalburg City, "yo May, I see that Flygon has been a great help," Drew commented with a confident smirk.
"Yeah it was a great help for me, thanks Drew," May replied thankfully as she placed the red and white device on the teleporting device, I will send it over to you now," May declared while pressing the button, the pokeball started to glow white before it disappeared to the other end of the call, Drew lifted up the pokeball and nodded at his friend, "again thanks for the help Drew," May said before getting ready to hang up on her friend.
"One more thing May, don't forget to give Ash a big kiss when you see him next," Drew teased before being cut off from the call, "she wants to kill me," Drew laughed at himself knowing that he had made the brunette angry.
"Stupid Drew, when I see him next I am going to murder him," May stated while cracking her knuckles, she looked up the clock and noticed it was almost time to take the ship towards Lilycove City, May ran out of the medical facility and rushed to the harbor before the ship left to the next destination. After running to the ship May ran up the gang plank after handing her ticket to the man in a suit, "made it, now it's almost time to see Ash," May reminded herself with joy, she walked up to the back of the ship and watched the city disappear in the distance.
On the way to Hoenn: 3 days later
Ash looked out towards the major city thinking about the brunette he had traveled with in the past, thinking about how much she had improved, "you know buddy, I would like to know how much May has improved since we last saw her," Ash enquired while staring at the large city in the distance, it was then that he heard a thud coming from behind, he turned around to see a pokemon on the ground, the trainer knelt down to inspect the injured pokemon.
Ash stared in shock recognizing the pokemon that he had saw in the past, "Victini, why is it here?" Ash asked himself in silence as the ship started to dock, Ash picked up the small pokemon and ran towards the pier, "this pokemon is in bad shape, why is that the case?" Ash asked himself while looking at the injured legendary with great concern.
Ash ran through the crowded docks and towards the city before bumping into a young woman dressed mostly in red with jeans on, "excuse me watch you're going next time," the woman demanded in anger before looking down to see the trainer, "Ash, I can't believe it," she said while placing her right hand over her mouth.
"Shouldn't have been standing there in a clueless manner," Ash returned much to the chagrin of the brunette.
"Well remind me not to be your friend again," May hissed back before looking down to see an injured pokemon in the trainer's arms, "is that a rare pokemon?" May asked her friend with great concern, the trainer nodded in concern and looked turned his gaze back at the ship, "what's going on Ash?" May asked the man standing in front of her.
Ash stared at the ship for a moment, "it was odd May, I was standing on the deck before I heard the pokemon falling behind me," Ash replied while turning his gaze the pokemon in his arms.
While Ash and May were talking about the legendary pokemon, "so the pokemon has made it this far," a mysterious man told himself as he saw Victini in the trainer's grasp, 'better not approach just yet,' he reminded himself while looking around to see the crowd of people around the duo, the man walked through the crowd to meet up with the duo, he pushed a few people aside while following the two strangers.
Ash looked back to see a man dressed in black walking up to him, "May, let's go to the Pokemon Center," Ash whispered to the brunette while looking at the small pokemon.
"Why Ash?" May asked with uncertainty. Ash didn't hesitate for a second and grabbed the coordinator's hand before running off towards the center of the city while being followed by the man, "Ash, what is the meaning of this?" May asked while the duo ran towards the building with a red roof.
Ash looked back to see that the man wasn't behind them, "there was a strange man, I am not sure what he wants," Ash claimed while looking around to see if the man was anywhere near the duo.
"I Want what is in your arms, the mythical Victini," a mysterious voice told the trainer while approaching them from the building.
"What do you mean?" Ash asked the man dressed in black.
The man burst out into laughter while Ash and May looked at him with concern, "Blaziken use Flamethrower," May instructed her starter pokemon with great confidence. The large red and yellow pokemon, the fire type unleashed a powerful burst of flames at the man, "got him," May celebrated with her fists clenched in joy.
"Really? Is that the best you have got?" the man asked while shaking his head.
May and Ash looked back with a shocked expression on each of their face, "fine Pikachu attack with Thunderbolt," Ash instructed his pokemon with certainty. The small electric type unleashed a devastating burst of electricity as the man dodged the powerful attack with the simplest of ease, the man ran to where the first attack came from, "who the hell are you?" Ash asked he man while gritting his teeth in frustration.
"My name is of no importance, I am just after the legendary pokemon, hand it over and I might spare your lives," the man decreed with his eyes starting to glow bright red.
Ash and May looked up in disbelief, scared of what was going on, "Ash, let's go," May instructed Ash but the two remained frozen in fear at what was happening in front of them.
"I love fear," the man said while laughing at the shaking duo.
This is my first full length Advanceshipping story in a long time, this one should be pretty good I hope.
Who is this man? Why does he seek the legendary pokemon? And how will Ash and May defend the legendary pokemon from the dark new enemy?
Next time Chapter 2: Fight Against Fear
I will introduce a new character later, might make it a character similar to the one introduced in Trainer and the Princess 3: Battle for Unova
