Chapter 2: Arrival.

Kalos Airport Saturday morning 9am.

Serena and Aria both dressed casually in hoodies, Jeans and Sunglasses as they both got on the plane in front of them with their pink and purple respective suitcases in hand. It was Palmero's own private jet that they were travelling on so they wouldn't have to worry about any unruly passengers.

"Morning ladies! How are we this morning?" The pilot asked very energized.

Both Serena and Aria grunted at the pilot as he nervously moved his collar. He then excused himself to the front of the plane as he went to start the pre-flight procedures. Serena placed both her suitcases and Aria's in the overhead compartment and sat down in the seat in front of Aria as the plane began to take off.

"You look tired. Long night?" Aria asked

"Ya, couldn't decide what to pack. You look the same." Serena answered.

"Ya, I'm so nervous about what we have to do. I know we can get it done but..."

Aria put her hands on her face before she spoke.

"You're afraid that you'll run into him in Kanto after all this time apart again... right?"

Serena sighed as she nodded yes to which Aria sighed.

"You know... it's been 12 years since you, him, all the gym leaders, Elite four member Malva, Champion Diantha, Professor Sycamore, Blaziken mask, Hoenn champion Steven Stone, Alain and Zygarde put an end to team flare's evil plot and saved Kalos. Why didn't you tell him back then after everything?" Aria asked confusedly.

Serena blushed for she answered.

"Like you said it was 12 years ago. We were both focused on our respective dreams. Him becoming a Pokemon master and myself trying to become Kalos Queen. He was dense back then, I don't know about now since I haven't talked to him since then."

"So what happens when or if you two happen to meet each other again? You're going to have to tell him eventually." Aria stated.

"I know, I just hope when it does happen that he'll understand this time. Now what about you... Mairin told me that you and Alain have been doing things or is she just making up stories again about you two?" Serena teased.

Aria blushed furiously as Serena laughed.

"Attention passengers, we are now arriving in the Unova region. Please fasten your seatbelt as we make our descent." The pilot announced over the intercom.

Both of the girls did as the pilot instructed as the plane began to slow down and touch down on the Unovan ground. Once the plane came to a complete stop both of the girls unfastened their seatbelts and stared at the window. Unova was truly a beautiful place with pokemon and people about, Serena was truly jealous of Aria.

"Well this is my stop. Take care of yourself Serena, I'll pray to Arceus that you will be successful in Kanto."

"You too Aria."

The two girls hugged as Aria grabbed her purple suitcases and headed down the plane into Unova. The pilot then spoke to Serena.

"Excuse me Miss Serena, we have to stay here for a while, we have to refuel and it might take a while. We burned a lot fuel coming here." The pilot explained to Serena.

"I understand thank you."

The pilot nodded as he headed back to the cockpit leaving Serena alone to look out the window at the Unova airport. She then took out her phone and unlocked it. She stared at the background which was a picture of herself and Ash doing a goofy pose.

"I wonder what you're up to now..."


Meanwhile in Kanto...

Ash, Pikachu and Greninja entered back into Professor Oak's lab. They found Gary on the phone talking to someone. Gary motioned for them to sit down. Ash then took a good look at Gary. Gary's hair had remained the same natural spikes and brown coloured. He had grown taller but not too tall. His muscles were toned and his eyes had bags under them. Gary sighed as he sat down in the chair in front of Ash.

"Where's your grandfather?" Ash asked as Gary sighed.

"At the radio station for his weekly hour of wisdom." Gary answered

"Ah."

"Anyway, find anything out there or did you go take a nap as usual?" Gary asked

"Both actually. We saw Ho-Oh again."

"Again? Well guess good fortune is coming your way then unlike me." Gary sighed.

"Leaf?"

"Ya. She said something about a surprise. Knowing her it's either I'm going to get yelled at or something bad is about to happen to me."

"5 bucks says I know what it is." Ash teased

"Sure you do. Anyway I'm going out to get lunch, you want anything while I'm out?"

"Nah, I'm good."

Gary nodded as he left to go get his lunch. Once he left Ash was alone, Greninja had already went outside to join back up with the other pokemon, Pikachu then spoke to him.

"Pika-Pi? Pika Pikachu."

"Hm? I'm fine. It's just after all this time Ho-oh reappears like that something is coming and I can't help but wonder what it could be."

"Pika. Pi pi Pika Pika Pi Pika-Pi."

Ash smiled as he rubbed Pikachu's head as Pikachu squealed in affection.

"Chaa."

"Thanks buddy, I know you and everyone else will always be there for me. Now what do you say we go see what everyone else is up to?"

Pikachu dashed towards the back door with Ash closely behind him. All the while Ash was having one thought in his head.

"Well, Ho-Oh bring on what you got planned for me."

Meanwhile...

After the refill of gas in Unova, 3 and a half hours later Serena's flight had finally touched down in Kanto. She had fallen asleep at some point but was awoken by the Pilot when the Plane came to a complete stop. She thanked the pilot and headed out the plane on to the Kantoian ground.

"Even after all that time since that one summer in camp, this still looks as beautiful as ever." Serena thought to herself as she pulled her luggage into the airport.

After Serena checked in she made her way to the front where a limo was waiting for her. The driver opened the door and politely let her inside. He then got into the front and began driving to where Serena would be staying.

Serena looked out the window as the driver was driving and took at all the people and pokemon that were going about their day. After a while the limo pulled into a mansion and the driver let Serena out.

"Where is this place?" she asked the driver curiously.

"This ma'am is the place you'll be staying for the duration of your stay here. Our champion Mr. Lance organized it for you on behalf of your mentor. Now if you ever need to go anywhere please don't hesitate to call." The driver answered as he tipped his hat and gave Serena his number walking away leaving Serena to stare at the house in front of her.

"So she knows the Kanto Champion huh? Well I guess that isn't too surprising."

Serena then pulled her suitcases into the mansion and entered. When she entered she was amazed on how big the inside of the mansion appeared. There was a grand staircase in front of her, a kitchen the size of a restaurant kitchen off to the side and a living room about the size of a cinema. Serena ascend the staircase and entered one of the rooms which had white walls and carpeting and a sliding door that lead out to a balcony.

"Oh right, I should probably let you guys out." Serena smiled to herself as she threw 3 pokeballs into the air, which then materialized a small panda, a human like fox and a pink bipedal fox.

"Pancham!"

"Braxien!"

"Sylveon!"

"Had a nice nap?" Serena asked her pokemon with a smile

The pokemon squealed in excitement as they answered Serena.

"Well, you can play around for a while but NO accidents. This is a guest house and I'm not going to pay for any damages you do. Now I'm going to go sleep a little to get rid of this jet lag. Braxien your in charge." Serena instructed as she fell down on the bed behind her and drifted off to sleep.


After playing with his multitude of pokemon Ash returned inside the laboratory with Pikachu to find the phone ringing. Gary was still out on his lunch run and Professor Oak hadn't returned as of yet. So he answered the phone.

"Hello, Oak Laboratory. This is Ash Ketchum." Ash said as he answered the phone.

"Oh, hello Ash. This is Lance."

"Lance! How are you and your pokemon?"

"We're good. Well as good as any champion should be as should be."

"That's good. I'm training as I can too, After the events of 12 years ago I need to be at top shape for anything pokemon related."

"A noble thought for one such as yourself. Now is either of the Oaks with you at the moment?" Lance asked.

"No, Gary went for lunch and isn't back yet. Professor Oak should be making his way back here soon since his radio show ended." Ash explained to Lance.

"I see, well maybe you'll be the person I need."

"Need for what?" Ash asked curiously.

"Well, I need a favour. I have to meet with a representative of a future potential business partner. You see they want to bring something here and I would like the opinion of a local Interested?" Lance asked.

"Sure, if it helps the region then I'm in." Ash answered with excitement.

"Great, meet me tomorrow at my office at the league building 10am. Don't be late."

Ash nodded as he thanked Lance and hanged up the phone. Little did he know who he was going to be see tomorrow.


Serena woke up 3 hours later fully rested to find her pokemon asleep. She smiled at them as she began to unpack her suitcases and place the contents into the closets and drawers around her. Once she was done she took her pink and blue laptop downstairs into the living room. Once she had found the password to the internet thanks to calling the driver she logged on to her video calling service to call Palmero who was also in a video call with Aria.

"So both of you arrived safely I see." Palmero began.

"Yes, we had a bit of turbulence here and there but we made it out in one piece." Serena answered.

"Good good, so how are you liking your assigned regions?"

"Unova is so pretty! I've seen so many new pokemon that could be cool for future performances or just to have as a partner. What about you Serena?" Aria asked.

"Same as you, it hasn't changed since the last time I was here." Serena answered with a slight blush.

"You went to Kanto before?" Palmero asked with surprise in her voice.

"When I was younger, I attended (well more liked forced to by my mom.) a summer camp held by Professor Oak. I haven't been back since then until now." Serena explained.

"I see, well I'm glad both of you are adjusting comfortably now down to business." Palmero repiled.

Both Serena and Aria nodded as Palmero went into as they called it businesswoman mode.

"Now both of you will be meeting with the regional champion tomorrow. Do you know their names?"

"Alder Azuma." Aria answered

"Lance Takamura." Serena also answered

"Right, now both of them called me today and said that they will have a random citizen of the region for their input. They did not however tell me who as they are currently searching. Both of your meetings are scheduled in for 10am." Palmero explained to both of them.

"Yes ma'am." Serena and Aria said in unison.

"Are there any questions?"

Both of the girls shook their heads negatively.

"Good, I'll call back in a week's time to see your progress."

Both of the girls nodded as they hung up on each other. Serena then made another call. She waited for the other person to pick up. When it connected, she came face to face with her mother who somehow still looked the same.

"Hi mom."

"Hi, how's my lovely daughter doing today?" Grace asked as she straightened her shirt.

"Good. A bit tired but good."

"That's good, where are you?"

"Kanto."

"What are you doing in Kanto?"

"Ms. Palmero wants to spread out Pokemon Showcases to other regions and by my luck I got sent here. I have to meet with the regional champion tomorrow to discuss it." Serena explained to her mother.

"I see, well as long as you put your mind to it I know that you will succeed." Grace assured her.

"I know, but enough about me how are you?"

"Good, our crazy neighbour tried asking me out on a date again. I of course told him no as usual and had Rhyhorn grunt to scare him off."

Serena laughed at what Grace had just told her. She knew for a while now that her neighbour as she called him "Crazy Tom" had been trying for years to get Grace to go on one date with him but she kept turning him down.

"You know mom, you should let him take you out on one. You know he won't stop." Serena teased.

"I'll do that when you tell Ash how you feel." Grace joked.

Both mother and daughter laughed. Grace knew how Serena felt about Ash ever since that summer camp in Kanto. She was shocked that when he came to Kalos and left after everything that happened that Serena didn't admit her feelings to him but she also knew that when Serena was ready she would find him and tell him everything.

"What time is it over there anyway?"

"Just after 7. Anyway go rest you have a big day ahead of you tomorrow. I love you."

"Love you too."

Grace smiled as Serena hung up the video call. Serena then slumped in the chair she was sitting in.

"Great. A random citizen is going to be there and it could be anyone. Could my luck be any worse? Actually never mind I shouldn't think that before it does."


Serena sighed as she closed her laptop and placed it on the glass table in front of her and headed off to the kitchen to make a snack for herself and her pokemon whenever they decide to wake up from their nap.

Ash entered his house with Pikachu hours later after Gary had finally returned to the lab along with his grandfather. He had moved out from his own mother's house after turning 20. It was very small but enough for him to live alone. He hung his hat on his coat rack and entered the kitchen to make dinner for himself and Pikachu.

"Do you want to go with me tomorrow to see Lance or are you going to the lab again tomorrow?"

"Pikachu. Pika-pi."

"Figured as much. I'll probably be back late depending how long it takes to get through everything and how difficult this representative might be. Just help out Bulbasaur if he needs help with everyone okay?"

"Pika."

Ash smiled at Pikachu. Who knew that when Pikachu and him first met that their friendship would be where it is now. At first pikachu hated Ash but nowadays that was very different, they were like very close siblings who knew what the other was thinking. After Ash finished cooking both of them began to devour their meals.


The next morning at 10 am...

Serena entered the pokemon league building and sat in the lobby until a red headed man wearing somewhat of a cape came infront of her.

"Excuse me, Ms. Yoshida?" The man asked

"Yes, that's me. And you are?" Serena asked.

"Lance Takamura. The Kanto Champion, How are you today?" Lance asked as he stuck out his hand for a handshake.

"Good, it's nice to meet you." Serena replied as she returned the handshake.

"Likewise, I'm actually waiting for one more person to join us. But why don't you head upstairs to my office? It's the 2nd door on the floor." Lance said with a smile.

Serena nodded as she headed to Lance's office to wait for Lance and his mysterious guest. When she got on the floor with Lance's office she made a quick stop to the washroom to check on her appearance. She was wearing a white long skirt with matching heels, a very light pink blouse and no hat. She wasn't one much for jewellery but on her hands were a watch/bracelet combo. On her neck was a simple silver necklace and on her ears were two small silver earrings.

When she was done checking herself over, she headed into Lance's office to wait.

After 15 minutes she heard him and another voice talking.

"And that's why I'm late." the 2nd voice explained to Lance.

Serena's head rose up quickly at the sound of the other voice.

"No... It can't be!" Serena said to herself

"Ah Ms. Yoshida my apology's for taking so long but our guest had to make a quick stop to Professor Oak's lab to drop something off. Now then Ms. Yoshida I would like to introduce to our own local celebrity." Lance told her.

Serena got up from the chair she was sitting in and when she saw who it was she was shocked as well as the eyes staring back at her.

"This is-" Lance began before the two people cut each other off.

"Ash?!"

"Serena?"

Justin (guest)- I'm glad you think it's amazing. Thanks for the review.

Darkaura808- Ya it flew by, ya my last story was an real joy to write and hopefully this one lives up to the other one. ya unbreakable bonds unlike coughblackandwhitecough. coughweakestgoodbyeevercough. ya don't worry i keep up to date with the anime so I already know that she's hoenn bound and Greninja is gone. the reason Serena is with Palmero is that this is taking place years after she had returned back to Kalos and became Queen catching Palmero's attention again. As for Greninja well he's my favourite pokemon and this is years after he and Zygarde completed their root out the red roots mission. hopefully that answers your questions. thanks for the review.

Anyways that does it for this chapter along with reviews/questions Remember if you liked this, favourite, follow and review and if you want share it with people you know who will like it.
