POKEMON LEAGUE OF CHAMPIONS: CH1-A HERO'S HOMECOMING!

Red was sitting on the top of mount silver; he had conquered the whole world. Yep, that's right he had travelled to all known regions and had beaten the tar out of the so called champions. Was he proud? Not a chance. He went on the journey to find new trainers like the one who beat him 3 years ago at mount silver, he never wanted to beat the champions of the regions or to get in another hall of fame. No, all he wanted was to find strong trainers like the one who beat him. He never found any trainer like him. Now all tired, he watching a sunset from his house on mount silver.

'I don't know how long can I take it, it has been 3 years and all I managed t do was to win some badges. Although, I did appreciate the lessons I learned from fighting the gym battles and caught many new Pokémon, but still I guess it wasn't worth it. No trainer had ever beaten me in all these years but one, whose name I don't know'. He thought by himself. He suddenly thought that only prof. oak knew about his whereabouts, not even his mother knew where he was, so it might be possible that prof. oak might knew about the trainer who beat him.

"Well, guess I have return to Pallet town to get info about this mysterious trainer. As a bonus I could even taste my mom's cooking after a long time. I really miss it. "Red thought to himself. He called his Pokémon team and his faithful Charizard, for the journey.

BACK IN PALLET TOWN

(KETCHUM RESIDENCE)

Delia Ketchum was very happy, why? Her son was returning from Sinoh region after winning a second place in the championship. The star of pallet town was returning home, yes, Ash Ketchum was returning home with his friends; Brock and Dawn. Suddenly a bell rang; Delia went to check the door and found Mrs. Fume standing at the door. "Congratulations Delia, you son is coming back from another journey, I made this chocolate chip pie for him, I am so happy ". Although many people will find Mrs. Fume's behavior unusual Delia Ketchum knew how she felt. Her son pallet's first champion had not returned home for the past 4 years. Ever since then she always greeted the people whose children returned from their journeys to visit their family. She was also a close friend of Delia as her son too went on long and dangerous journeys and that gave them something in common.

Delia thanked her friend for the gift and asked her to come in for tea, an offer which she gratefully accepted. "You know what Helena I think we should arrange a welcoming committee for Ash , I am sure that he would love it and he deserves it too after all my boy came second in the Sinoh league. So what do you say will you help me?" the middle aged housewife could easily relate to her friend's happiness and eagerness, after all there was a time when she had experienced the same feelings." I am in. ". She said with earnest excitement.

THE FOREST NEAR PALLET TOWN

Ash was happy that he got to return home after a long time. He was a bit disappointed that Brock had to stay home to care for his family but he was okay with that, at least dawn was there to accompany him to pallet town. When ash thought about it he found that it was Dawn's first time to visit pallet town and meet his mom in person. He discarded the thought from his mind, he knew that all his friends would start passing comments about their relationship at arrival, but he could deal with it. Suddenly he heard a rustling in the tall grass near the lake which they were passing. Dawn leaped behind ash and then came back aside almost instantaneously and ash got ready for a Pokémon battle.

They both were surprised when they found that the mysterious creature was a boy all dressed in red and two years older than Ash. The boy looked surprised when he saw them and didn't move from his position."I hope you don't want to battle me. I am very tired so if you are hoping for that it won't happen" the boy said in a very casual tone. Ash was surprised from this, after all he was the champion of orange league and had almost conquered Sinoh league, how could any boy like that could beat him, even if he was a bit older than him.

"Sorry, we mistook you for a Pokémon. Anyway I am ash and this is dawn we are going back to pallet town, so what are you doing in this forest?" Ash inquired the boy." What a coincidence I too was going to pallet town to have a talk with prof. oak, care if I join you? And by the way I am Red." Ash was not even a bit surprised, which seemed to trouble Red and at the same time make him happy. Ash found the boy to be interesting and thought it would be nice to have someone like that on the team. So together they went towards pallet town.

What will be the outcome of this meeting, only time can tell? Let's hope for the best.

Stay tuned for next chapter "A new journey".
