Chapter 1: The ancient secret and it's granter!

"Long ago, on the planet of Gaea there existed two races of beings. The humans and their advanced counterparts the Demigods who lived in the heavens while the human were bound to the earth. The demigods were godlike beings who possessed mystical ancient power by the name of Mantra and each followed one path of Mantra whether it was Wrath, Melancholy, Sloth, Vanity, Lust, Gluttony, Pride or Violence. However there eight amongst these mighty warriors who were masters of each of the mantras and were protectors of Gaea. They were the Eight Guardian Generals.

The 8 generals led by their emperor and assisted by their priestess fought against the Gohma, monsters made out of the corrupted will of Gaea along with its leader Vlitra. They fought against the Gohma for thousands of years only to put them to rest for 10 thousands of years but it was a never ending cycle of war. Then everything changed. When the battle of Vlitra ended betrayal was cast onto the Guardian General of Wrath Asura. His comrade generals murdered their Emperor Strada placed the blood of blame onto him branding him a traitor. They slayed his wife Durga and kidnapped the priestess who was his daughter Mithra. He was cast down from the heavens and vowed to have his vengeance on them.

12,000 years later Asura was resurrected from the dead and hunted down the former Generals now known as the 7 Deities but he didn't know it was the plan by their creator Chakravartin to see who would take his place as God...Asura's hands were dirtied by the blood of his former comrades but instead of joining Chakravartin he declared war on him. Both of them clashed as the heavens shook and erupted from the immense power threatening to tear the sky asunder. With every bit of his strength Asura defeated Chakravartin but knew the lost of the god would end the lives of the demigods who relied on the Mantra to survive including his daughter. In one final act of love, Asura gave up the remaining of his Mantra to his daughter and sent her to Gaea so she may live. He faded into light and transpired to the skies above. This was the end of Asura…

Or was it?"

"Earth! The home to humans and their extraordinary counterparts Pokemon! All around the world there are a variety of these mystical beings with incredible powers of the elements or psyche! You see them flying in the air, swimming through the sea, roaming the biggest of plains or came from the stars above. No matter where you are there are always Pokemon wherever you go. However something extraordinary shall begin in the Kanto Region unlike any other… starting 14 years…"

Near the small town of Pallet Town in the a small forest by the west during a peaceful starry night someone was walking through the shadow cloaked trees and grass. It was a beautiful woman with light peach skin, bright brown eyes, slightly long red brown hair and elegant figure wearing a light pink dress, blue skirt, pure white shoes and a green bead necklace around her neck. This woman was Delia Ketchum, a kind woman and friend of Professor Oak. She was walking through the dark woods to find a small shrine that was held deep within the thicket of bushes and branches. "Oak said that the shrine should be a little up ahead. I wonder what was it that he wanted to me to take a look at? Is it because of that strange book he found yesterday?" Delia asked with a sweet and beautiful voice that granted warmth in the night.

The night was peaceful and quiet as the songs of the forest Pokemon sung through the air in a natural and beautiful rhythm. Durga…. A voice whispered through the air causing Delia to turn to see where it came from but noticed no one was there. "For a second there...I thought I heard a voice…" Delia stated a little nervous but trudged on before she arrived at a clearing that wasn't touched by the trees and within the center was a small shrine.. The shrine was similar to that of an Japanese shrine but with strange markings scattered that seemed to belong to a machine's circuit board but the strange thing about the shrine was that it didn't look like anything man made.

"Is that the shrine he talked about? It doesn't look like any normal shrine I've been to. He said that people have been hearing whispers from touching this shrine but nothing happened. I wonder what will happen if I did it?" Delia asked questionably as she approached the shrine. She carefully placed her hand on the front of the shrine and prayed before letting go and looked at it. Durga...Durga… The voice whispered sounding more and more of a person. "Aah!" Delia gasped surprised as wisps of bright red began to emerge around the shrine. Durga...Durga! The voice shouted as it now sounded like a grown man with a stern and slight deep baritone with hints of angry through it as the wisps began to multiply and red torrents of wind flowed around me and the shrine.

Right there it stood in front of the shocked Delia. It was a see-through floating man with tan skin, muscular body, glowing light red eyes, snow white wildly hair that was sticking up, dark brown mechanical yet ancient runes across his body and face, and arms made out of gold wearing a brown faded sash, black pants with red clouds and gold braces on his feet. The man to Delia was handsome and beautiful yet had a soft aura of warmness and angry from being around him. The man reached out his hand to her. "Are you...lonely?" Delia asked as the spirit looked at her with glowing eyes. "I'll be your friend if you want." Delia answered kindly as she took the hand of the charming spirit. Bright red light enveloped both of them as Delia vanished from the spirit's hand while the spirit was pulled back into the shrine crying out a different name. Delia!

When Delia woke up she had found herself back in her home lying on the couch. "How did I get back here? Where did the spirit go?" Delia asked in concern before this strange sensation came to her and she went into the bathroom. 5 minutes had gone until we heard a gasp coming from her. She rushed out of the bathroom and headed towards the phone calling up a number. "Professor Oak...I got something to tell you." Delia stated with a sound of worry in her voice. "I checked out the shrine but...I went to the bathroom and did a test… Professor, I'm pregnant. Not from a man...but by a spirit!" Delia shouted as everything faded to black.

14 years later…

?Point of View

The Ketchum house hold was silent from the town and peaceful within its small confines. The peace however was going to be interrupted. A flash of bright yellow light sparked through the window on the second floor as a loud scream could be heard. "AAAAAAH! I'M UP PIKACHU!" A voice shouted from in the room. The voice had belonged to me so might as well introduce myself.

My name is Ash Ketchum, and I'm a Pokemon Trainer from Pallet Town! I'm a 14 year old boy that was 5 ft 6 in tall with light tan skin, brownish red eyes, black slightly spiky hair that were spiky on the sides and black sketch sideways thunderbolts on my cheeks wearing a blue and white jacket, dark gray baggy pants with tons of pockets, red and black shoes, black fingerless gloves and a white with blue back hat with a blue pokeball symbol on the front. I was peacefully sleeping in my bed before I felt like being electrocuted and woke up charred. I looked at the floor of my room to see my partner Pikachu was responsible for this frustrating wake up call. Pikachu is my first Pokemon known as the Electric Mouse Pokemon that was 1 ft and a few inches tall with a yellow fur body, brown eyes, long yellow ears with black tips, red circles on his cheeks, a lightning bolt shaped brown and yellow tail, small paws and feet, brown stripes on his back and a mouse like body.

"Morning Pikachu! Thanks for the wake up call but a little nudge would have better." I laughed with a childish teenage male voice. "Pika pika!" Pikachu squeaked as he leapt onto my shoulders as I got out of bed. I looked at my desk to see multiple badges and an award on it before I just smiled and left. I walked out of my room only to smell the delicious cooking from my mother but not before bumping into someone. It was a woman about 1 ft taller than me with light peach skin, green eyes and faded brown hair in a ponytail wearing a hot pink and black shirt, gray pants, and black shoes along with green pearl earrings with a strange yellow and black lizard Pokemon about Pikachu's size with huge black yellow tipped frills on his head, bright green eyes, small black lizard hands, a black tip tail and a black pointed head was on her shoulder. It was Alexa and her partner Helioptile, I met them when sailing from Unova back to Kanto. She is a news reporter in the Kalos region and her sister was a Gym Leader there.

"Morning Alexa and Helioptile! How are you guys doing?" I asked kindly. "We're doing fine Ash. We thought of getting some breakfast this morning and thought of joining you." Alexa answered kindly as Helioptile agreed. "Alright then let's go! I heard my mom is making some delicious pancakes and they sure smell good!" I shouted as the three of them just giggled as I ran downstairs to the kitchen. Sitting right at the table with multiple plates set on it was my mother Delia Ketchum. She was a very nice and sweet person from what I've experienced and seen but she always cheered me on during my journeys but it looked like Mr. Mime, her Pokemon wasn't here. "Morning Mom! Where's Mr. Mime?" I asked as I sat down at the table with Alexa and her Pokemon joining with me. "Oh. I asked him to pick up some groceries for me so he'll be back soon. So how are you two doing?" Mom asked as we began to eat. "We're doing fine and man are your pancakes delicious as ever!" I stated as I was still munching on a pancake while Pikachu just smiled before munching a piece of his.

"Your son is sure lively miss Ketchum. I guess he gets it from his dad!" Alexa stated but then my mom frowned however I hadn't noticed the change of attitude. "Yeah. Can you tell me what Dad was like?" I asked before noticing my mother's expression. "Well...he's...It's not easy to explain it but he was handsome and kind and almost ethereal like." My mom stated before Alexa had a concerned look on her face. "I've noticed something Ms. Ketchum. Ash showed me around your house but I've never seen any pictures of your husband in this entire house. Are you hiding something?" Alexa asked as my mother had a shocked expression on her face like she've seen a ghost. "Mom? What's wrong?" I asked as the mood just turned eerie and dark. "Ash...There is something I need to tell you and it concerns your father…" My mom stated as she seemed to be worried and scared from her expression.

"Something about my father?" I asked stunned as Pikachu and everyone else looked worried and concerned. "Yes but...I can't tell you here...There's a place we need to go first." My mother answered as she got up from the table and headed out the door. "Mom!" I shouted as the 4 of us got off the table and went after my mother. She went from walking to running as she ignored everyone in town who greeted her as we followed her in pursuit. She had ran out of town and into the Whispering Woods that was close to our home. The place was called the Whispering Woods from the tales of eerie whispers being heard at the dead of night to anyone that entered. "Mom! Where are you going?!" I asked as we were doing our best to keep up. "Follow me dear and I'll explain but I can't tell this to the ones in town! It's a secret that I've been hiding for so long!" My mother shouted as the thicket of the woods vanished before we arrived to a small clearing.

There stood amongst the clearing was a strange shrine of some sort covered in brambles and thick vines as it seemed to be aged exactly 14 years ago. "Mom...What is this place?" I asked confused. "Pika pika." Pikachu squeaked confused. "Helioptile…" Helioptile muttered frightened. "Is this...the Wrath Shrine? It really exists?" Alexa asked puzzled as I turned to her. "The Wrath Shrine?" I asked confused from Alexa's statement. "It's a mysterious shrine that emerged in these woods 14 years ago. No one knew where it came from or who built it but it's been here for a long time. They call it the Wrath Shrine because those who see it started feeling intense waves of anger and wrath coming from it before hearing the terrifying roars of a spirit of bright red. No one know if it was dedicated to a legendary Pokemon or something else but a lot steer clear of this place and so do the Pokemon." Alexa explained as I grew nervous and concerned from hearing the frightening tale.

"But what's this got to do with you mom?" I asked with a confused look on my face. "It has to do with your father. 14 years ago, Professor Oak asked me to investigate this shrine when it appeared weeks ago. When I was walking through the woods, I heard a voice echoed through the wind saying "Durga". The voice had led me to this very shrine. It said that those who touch this shrine will feel the presence of a powerful being echoed from it. So I touched the front of the shrine only to be surrounded by burning red wisps and the voice shouting louder and louder. Then there stood a spirit of a man I've never seen before with hair of white and adorned with gold. He was beautiful...He reached his hand out to me and I took it only to find myself back in the house...But when I went to the bathroom...I found out something…" My mom explained as she looked at me with some tears in her eyes added by a smile of happiness and terror.

"What was it?" I asked puzzled. "I was pregnant...with you. It wasn't done by a man...It was done by the spirit of this shrine!" My mother managed to choke out as we all looked dumbfounded and completely shocked. "You mean...my dad...is a spirit?!" I asked in complete panic as my mind was threatened to be melted into nothing. "How could something like that happen?! It's virtually impossible but...here stands Ash…" Alexa stated with a look of concern and realization on her face. "You mean this...shrine...Is my father's?" I asked as I placed my hand on the front of the shrine. The forest was silent before a fierce wave of rage flowed from the shrine pushing Alexa and everyone back. "What the?!" I shouted as the shrine's runes began to glow a bright red as runes of red scattered across the clearing ground. "Pika!" Pikachu squeaked trying to keep himself from being blown away.

The shrine began to glow brighter as it started to crack before shattering apart revealing a bright red sphere of light that came from the rubble of it. We couldn't say anything as the event before us began to unravel more and more. The light began to grow and change shape as a loud audible male voice roared through the trees became more man like. "He's...coming?" My mom whispered as I looked at her with surprise as we turned to the light. The light fully formed and dulled before becoming what seemed like a man. He was 8 ft tall with tan skin, muscular body, glowing light red eyes, snow white wildly hair that was sticking up, dark brown mechanical yet ancient runes across his body and face, and arms made out of gold wearing a brown faded sash, black pants with red clothes and gold braces on his feet and you could feel his immense power just from his roar. When the man finally emerged he fell to the ground onto his knees panting heavily.

"Who...is that?" Alexa asked like with mixed emotions from it. "Dad…?" I managed to mutter looking at the man in front of us. He had stopped panting before picking himself and opening his eyes to face only for us to stare back at glowing light red like there wasn't anything in there. "Where...am...I?" The man managed to choke out before he noticed my mother. "You're...the woman I saw...long ago...Delia?" The man asked as my mother had tears on her eyes before smiling. "Yes...it's me. I'm glad to see you again." My mom stated happily. "Are you...my dad?" I asked as the man turned to me and looked at me in complete surprise. "Who...are you? Why do you think I'm your father?" The man asked confused before approaching me and my mother. "Well...my mom said she met you...she started to have me after her encounter…I'm her son, Ash Ketchum." I answered as the man looked completely surprised before sighing. "When I get my hands on that thing...I'm going to strangle it." Asura muttered angrily causing me to flinch a bit.

"Pika!" Pikachu squeaked and my dad looked at my partner even more confused. "And what are you? You definitely aren't a Gohma but don't seem like a normal mouse either and don't look that strong either." The man stated as Pikachu got annoyed before blasting him with a Thunderbolt. "Pikachu! Stop! He's my father and he didn't mean it!" I shouted frantically as Pikachu stopped while sheepishly smiling at Asura only to look surprised. Even though Asura was hit with a thunderbolt, he wasn't charred but did look very annoyed from the expression on his face. "Okay. That was strong but antagonizing. However nothing to a Demigod like myself." The man answered with his arms crossed before I looked at him surprised. "What?! You're a Demigod?! But how? Just who are you anyway?!" Alexa shouted as the man looked at her even more annoyed. "My name is Asura and I'm the Demigod of Wrath. Don't question me like you're my superior." Asura spat annoyed at Alexa.

"Sorry...That was rude of me. My name is Alexa and this is my partner Helioptile. We're friends of your son." Alexa apologized while introducing herself. "You already know me and my mom but this is my partner Pikachu and sorry for him electrocuting you." I answered kindly as Pikachu got back on my shoulder and smiled. "I understood plus I've been hit with tons of electricity before so basically I'm used to it. Though now I look at you Ash...There is a resemblance but you got quite a skinny frame so I'll be working on that but I definitely can feel my Mantra of Wrath within you." Asura stated as I looked at him confused.

"Mantra of Wrath? You mean Aura?" I asked confused before Asura just shook his head. "No. Mantra is the energy of demigods and is much different than this aura. When a person wields Mantra, they're physically bodies become much stronger granting them super strength, super speed, unbelievable endurance, heightened senses and the control of energy attacks depending on the Mantra. My mantra of Wrath which is Fire Based." Asura explained as he created a small red fireball in his hands before causing it to disappear. "Whoa. You think you can teach me that? I love to learn plus I like to learn more about you dad!" I answered excited and with a determined look on my face. "I know. Let's bring Asura back to Professor Oak and he'll help explain things about our world and get him situated. Will that be alright dear?" Mom asked as she stroked Dad's chin causing him to blush in embarrassment.

"Very well. Plus I want to know more about your creature friends there." Asura stated as he unfolded his arms and I smiled at him. "Sure! Follow me dad and I'll take you to our home in Pallet Town! Come on Pikachu!" I shouted happily as I ran off into the forest before Asura just shrugged as he picked up my mother bridal style and ran off after me with incredible speed while holding onto Alexa and Helioptile. I looked behind me to see my dad with my mom, Alexa and Helioptile coming speeding right towards us at incredible speed. "Let's race dad! Hahaha!" I laughed happily as we ran to the Professor's Lab.
