Chapter 2? Why not? :D I aplogize for the very, very small chapter 1. Seems more like a preview, in my opinion. On the bright side, I hope to make longer chapters (though it's kinda hard to do in Wordpad .)

I hope you enjoy this chapter of Pokemon XY: Mirror Adventures!

On the road once again, Ash and his friends decided to stop for a bit.

"How long have we been walking for?" Serena complained. "It feels like it's been hours!"

"Serena, it's only been thirty minutes," Clemont informed her. "There's no need to keep asking, you asked only five minutes ago." Serena sighed, knowing that the trip ahead was not going to be as nice as she thought it would be.

Clemont prepared some food for lunch, and Pikachu and Dedenne played with each other for a little while. Ash decided to take Serena on in a battle once again, and Serena only shrugged it off and laughed a bit. He wants to challenge me? Is he crazy? But something seemed very off to her. Ash seemed...confident. He seemed to feel like...he was going to win! Serena became outraged at the boy. He thinks he can beat me in a battle?! What has gotten IN to him?! The thought of losing was devastating, and she only wanted to battle harder.

"Alright, you're on!" she cried to Ash. "Go, Fennekin!" A small little fox appeared on the battlefield, out of it's Poke Ball.

"Alright, Froakie, come on out!" Ash too sent out his Pokemon. He was ready for a battle.

"Ash, you feeling alright?" Serena asked the trainer. "You seem a little too confident for this battle. Or are you just afraid of losing to me even more?!" Rage started to control her. She started to tremble with anger. The fact that this boy actually had the courage to battle was startling, and she knew she would win...but this wouldn't be an easy win, for sure.

Clemont, once again, took place as referee of the match.

"This match will be a one-on-one battle, no substitutions!" he explained. "The first Pokemon to knock out the other will be deemed winner!"

Ash and Serena got ready, Ash's face being as serious as anyone had ever seen. Some may argue he was more serious than Ash from the real world. Serena was furious. She knew she would win - she just knew it!

"Battle..."

"BEGIN!"

"Alright, Froakie, Bubble!" The little blue Pokemon fired a jet of bubbles towards the opposing Fennekin. Serena knew she had to tell Fennekin to dodge, but she had little time to react. Instead, the Bubble hit Fennekin directly and the Pokemon took massive damage.

"Woah, that was a fierce blow," Clemont remarked. "You're lucky it's still ready to battle, Serena."

"Don't get me started, Clemont!" she retorted angrily. Not only was she losing to a "crybaby", the referee was making comments on her battle style. Great, just what I needed, she grumbled to herself. "Ash Ketchum, I'm not going to lose this match!"

Ash responded to this by increasing his confidence level. He turned his hat backwards and had Froakie use some odd moves.

"Froakie, Double Team!" he ordered his Pokemon. Soon, multiple illusions of the frog appeared everywhere. "Now use Bubble up in to the sky, with no direct target!" Soon, it started raining...or, what seemed like rain. Not only did Fennekin have to deal with water pouring down on to it (which hurt it already), it had to figure out which Froakie was the real one WHILE the water concealed the illusions.

"Fennekin, Flamethrower!" Serena ordered her Pokemon. The water eliminated the fire, and Serena was left with nothing.

"Water Pulse!" The Froakies all fired illusion Water Pulses at the poor Fennekin.

Oh no! Serena told herself. He's got me cornered! I've got a last-ditch effort, but I can't guarantee it will work... "Fennekin...Scratch!"

Fennekin constantly swiped at all of the attacks coming its way. After attacking multiple times there was only one left...the real one.

"Fennekin, dodge it!"

"Fenn!" the Pokemon responded, avoiding the Water Pulse. The Bubble wore off, and the weather was clear once again. "Alright, Fennekin, Flamethrower one more time!"

"Froakie, quick! Move out of the way!" Ash ordered his Pokemon. It was too late - the Fennekin's Flamethrower had hit Froakie and it hit the dust.

"Froakie is unable to battle, that means that Serena is th-" Clemont paused. Serena, who was about to claim victory once again, was even angrier. Froakie had managed to get up and fight once again!

"WHAT?!" she loudly exclaimed. "He was down, fair and square!"

"But he's still able to fight, so Ash isn't disqualified," Clemont responded. "Battle...resume!"

"Froakie, Water Pulse, one more time!"

"Fennekin, Flamethrower, let's go!"

As Flamethrower and Water Pulse collided, there was a spectacular display of colors, while the two attacks were fighting over who got priority. In the end, Water Pulse had destroyed the Flamethrower and hit the Fennekin. The fox was knocked back pretty far, and it was down and out.

"Fennekin is unable to battle, that means that Froakie is the winner! The victory goes to Ash!"

"Yeah, great job, Froakie!" he praised his Pokemon. "You deserve a good rest, return." A red beam came out of the ball and the Froakie disappeared.

Serena was silent. She was furious. She lost to little crybaby Ash! How could she not be upset?

"Wow, great job Ash!" Clemont exclaimed. "You did really well!"

"Thanks, Clemont," Ash responded. "You did pretty good too, Serena."

Silence. Nothing. She was speechless with anger. How could she lose?!

"Your Pokemon are pretty beat up, we should get them to the nearest Pokemon Center," Clemont told Ash and Serena. "Let's go."

And with that, Ash and friends set off to the Pokemon Center. After finally beating Serena in a battle, things are starting to change for Mirror Ash. What will happen next? Find out, as the journey continues!

Thank you all for reading! I hope you enjoyed! I hope it's a bit longer, and I'm sorry about the short first chapter. I hope this satisifies! Try to expect #3 before the end of the weekend. I hope you enjoyed, and please review. It helps tremendously so I can become a better writer. Thank you for your support and have a good rest of the day/morning/night!
