Hey you guys sorry for the super delay. My laptop decided to crash on me. But I'm back but I am somewhat glad that it did. It gave me time to think about this chapter. Again I'm sorry but enjoy this chapter. Sorry if I'm lame but I like the movies where I got this from. Enjoy.

Present day

As Ash started to wake up he kept his eyes closed. If he had opened his eyelids you would see his amber eye turn blue with the pupil still black. His eyesight turned from pitch black to where he would see his surroundings outlined in a faint blue color and the rest of it would be black or white(depending on the actual color of the object). He started to survey his room in the Battle Pyramid. As everything in his room had been stripped and transferred to the masters room which had been Brandon's, and he didn't find much but a few drawers that were empty and a desk and an empty closet that had only the clothes that he was going to wear today. His shirt and hoodie were in a plastic bag the meant they went to the dry cleaners. He opened his eyes and the blue faded and the turned back to normal. As the always did when he would use his Aura Sight.

As part of his Aura training it had become a habit actually ever since he began training Brandon hammered it into his head, "CONSTENT VIGILENCE" he would yell out. He didn't regret it either as it had helped him out in many battles or helped train his Pokémon.

As he made his way to the bathroom he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. Once inside he turned the light and looked into the mirror. He hadn't changed much but his hair was significantly shorter but still in the bed head style he always had it in. He moved closer to the mirror to see the reflection of his chin to see a little stubble on it. After that he made his way to take a shower.

30 minutes later

He came out with white and blue checkered boxer shorts and the towel over his face while drying his hair. After drying his hair he tossed away the towel and picked up his carpenter dark blue jeans and slipped them on. He then slipped his white socks on and his new black tennis shoes with blue shoelaces. As he pulled on his new red shirt with a black outline of Moltres breathing fire in the chest area and blue hoodie that like a thin shirt but was two times his size. During his training he had grow to ware hoodies as a cloak or a trench coat which had himself wandering if he was an assassin from those Assassin Creed games he played, because he liked to his hood all the time which would cover his face in a shadow.

"Which reminds, me I need to preorder the new one before it comes out or I'll forget. I also need to find someone who can help me retrieve it the day it comes out." Ash said now feeling a familiar presence at the door.

"You do realize that carrying that official Frontier Brain badge that helps identify that you're a Brain you should be able to get it with no problem. And also the more privileges that it provides you should have fun traveling." said Brandon from the bedroom door. His arms crossed and a neutral expression on his face.

"Oh okay, (he glances at the digital clock on the desk, it was 5:52AM) not to be rude or anything but I thought you already left."

'I was on my way out; I just thought I'd give you some last minute advice'. Said as he crossed his arms still standing at the doorway.

'Yeah sure go ahead' Ash said while putting his XTransceiver on a retractable chord on the one strap backpack.

"Do you trust my judgment" asked Brandon to his young apprentice. Hoping he would notice the seriousness of what he was going to say.

"Of course I do, otherwise I wouldn't be here" Ash said truthfully as his carefree expression turn into a serious one.

"Ash girls may not seem appealing at first for young men but resisting them will only get worse… "

"You're giving me your own version of the 'Talk' I was hoping it would be the first week of training that we would have this conversation".

"Yes well as I was saying. It will only get worse as you go on in life and I'm telling you that if you ever get the chance to try it in the fields of relationships don't hold back because you will regret it for the rest of your life".

"I'll keep it in mind" Ash said dismissively but Brandon secretly knew Ash was actually thinking about it.

"Alright I think I'll set off now and the reason for not talking to you about this until now was because I had to have something to go with my departure".

Brandon headed out of the of the room. Ash got the rest of his stuff and pulled his backpack on and rushed out of the room closing the door in the process.

They headed to the top of the pyramid where they came to a side balcony that faintly gave reddish glow of the sun rising. Ash checked his XTransceiver for the time it was 6:04.

"It's been an honor training with you Ash. I hope that what I have taught you will help you in your travels". Brandon began as he stretched his arm to shake with Ash's.

"Likewise Brandon, stay safe and we could keep in touch…"

"NOOOOOO. I shall leave you on your own path instead of following anyone else's path take care of yourself my friend." Brandon said as he throw a pokéball and out with a flash came a Salamance and it hovered, flapping its wings it came closer to Brandon and he jumped to it and turned to leave. But suddenly stopped and turned around.

"Here" said Brandon as he chucked a brown sack at Ash who reached out to grab it but missed. He leaned over the rail and stretched his arm as if to still catch it. He concentrated on the sack as if to pull it out of the air. As if by magic the sack was now covered in a blue outline and started to float upwards and landed in Ash's hands. He had mastered his ablities well.

"Are you fucking crazy?" Ash yelled.

"NO, take care of them and goodbye Ash." Brandon said as he ordered his Salamance to fly off.

Ash stood there and watched them fly off into the sunrise. He looked into the sack and found out there were two pokéball there. Ash then turned back to the sun but say they were completely out of site.

Well then it's time to head home. And break the news to my friends." Ash said as he walked back inside to get on ground level to start his journey home.
