The Prince Meets The Paupress

Serena raised her eyes and saw a stranger, dressed in a royal costume. She saw a young man in a blue aristocratic coat. He was also wearing fine white satin gloves and silk grey pants. She was somewhat surprised by his unnatural mustache and weird glasses. He was accompanied by a well-groomed Pikachu wearing a monocle and a Greninja who looked very strong.

"Young lady-san, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Ashura-...er...I mean just Ash-kun. These are my loyal Pokemon friends - Pikachu and Greninja. Is there something I can help you with? It would be a great pleasure to me to put an end to your suffering."

Serena fell to her knees and bowed down to Ash's shoes.

"Please...I need money...not for myself... but for my Pokemon and my mother..." Serena showed Ash in what condition was her mother.

Ash was horrified by the life conditions of Serena's family. He sensed with his Aura that she was not lying. Her Pokemon looked very hungry and sick, so did Serena and her mom. He felt something tearing apart inside when he heard the Fennekin and Sylveon crying.

Ash decided to invite Serena to the palace. His heart was very kind and it made him suffer to see such poverty.

Ash took off his glasses and fake mustache.

"To be honest, my real name is Prince Ashura Satoshi Red Ketchum, heir to the royal Ketchum dynasty of Kalos. I offer you to live in Prismic Tower, my residence. I offer you to become...hmm...well...I can find a job for you there. You can take your mother and Pokemon to live with you. It hurts me to see people in my kingdom living such a miserable life, so I feel obliged to help you as much as I can."

He smiled and stretched his hand out to Serena who was standing on her knees in front of the Prince himself.

Serena could not believe what she was hearing. She gave Ashura her hand in a humble manner and rised to her feet.

"Let's go right now. We shall not hesitate to provide more comfortable conditions for your poor mother and Pokemon who have surely suffered from this way of life." Ashura said with a determined voice."

Ashura and Serena helped Grace walk to the Prismic Tower. The Pokemon were following right after them.

They approached the tower soon.
