Chapter 4: Satoshi….

Hello everyone I'm back starting with the Murderer Within! Although it has been difficult as I have been very busy but I will not let you down But as some of you knew about my 'health' the hospital didn't know what was wrong so dismissed it :/ so I've just been coping on my own and dealing with my headaches and just controlling them. But it hasn't stopped me driving and doing assignments. But I've passed my driving test first time with only 3 minors.

May's POV

'MAX!' I screamed, 'I can't believe it's you' I was so excited to finally see him after three years. I've only seen him on TV with his Pokémon battles. I always rooted for him through everything. The first time he left on his Pokémon journey he travelled with me to Unova when he was ten. Now he is fourteen. I left him in Unova to complete his journey it took him three years to complete and in his third year of trying to beat the Unova league he finally succeeded.

Now he had come back to Hoenn to claim victory in his home region. He was finally tough enough to beat dad.

'Well done' I said as I gave him a hug. He gave me a warm smile. It was so reassuring to see him again after so long.

Suddenly the door opened behind us. 'Can I please challenge the Unova league champion' A man asked from the door his eyes were covered over, his voice was deep and his skin was pale, a black clock covered his entire body, and the hood covered his face.

'Who are you?' asked Max, before attempting to accept the battle.

'I am the one known as Satoshi' answered the man now known as Satoshi; he had a strange vibe coming from the young man.

'Okay Satoshi I accept this challenge' Max replied. Max grabbed a Pokeball 'What are the rules?'

Satoshi looked at him and said 'Two Pokémon each' in a blunt tone.

I looked down at Satoshi's belt, he only had one Pokeball. 'Excuse me Satori or whatever your name is?'

'Satoshi…' replied the man 'But what is it?'

'Alright Satoshi… you've only got one Pokeball how could you use two Pokémon' I said, as I looked at him, his facial expression did not change.

'I have a secret weapon… who lies in this Pokeball and I do not intend to use it first' he replied.

'Okay then…'

'Let's start shall we' Max said, as he held a Pokeball tightly in his hand.

Satoshi walked onto the battle field and took the right side where Max stayed on the left.

Norman walked into the middle. 'Let the battle begin'

Max threw his Pokeball in the air 'Sceptile lets go' a light shot out of the Pokeball, it began to form a green creature known as Sceptile.

'What's your Pokémon going to be?' Max asked as he waited patiently.

Satoshi stood there in a daydream state until he snapped out of it 'Pika- Pikachu come on in' I was confused by Satoshi's words. He pointed to the door. Suddenly a little Pokémon began to crawl slowly into the room. The poor Pokémon had wheel on his body in place of his legs.

'What happened to this poor little guy' I said in horror. 'He can't battle'

'Watch me' Satoshi said with a grin 'Pikachu and I have been battling for nearly 10 years… don't think that wheels are going to slow my buddy down'

'Buddy?' I thought to myself 'There is only one person that quotes his Pokémon like that' I dismissed this thought; it couldn't be Ash… he's in Kanto. Grieving for his girlfriend… or planning something else.

'Pikachu' Satoshi said 'Let's win this, let's get this started off with an quick attack'

I watched in horror as this man put his poor ill Pokémon to battle… forcing it like it had no emotions… I didn't want to watch this…

Pikachu sped off at the speed of light, faster than a Pokémon I had ever seen. Max looked amazed, Pikachu was nowhere to be seen.

'Where did it go?' questioned Max looking around the room. Sceptile was on edge he was looking all around him confused as the rest of us.

'Pikachu now' Satoshi said in delight. Pikachu shot down from the ceiling hitting Sceptile on the head. Sceptile fell to his knees.

'Sceptile no… you can do this!' said Max as he looked at his wounded Pokémon.

Normal POV

Max looked at his Pokémon in horror, 'how is that Pikachu so powerful…'

Satoshi snickered 'Max you could do better than that… you are meant to be Unova champion?'

'Sceptile use leaf storm' Max cried pointing at Pikachu.

Sceptile began to glow green and started creating bright green leaves shooting towards Pikachu. Pikachu's eyes widened

'PIKACHU' screamed Satoshi as he began running towards Pikachu, standing in front of Pikachu shielding him from the leaf storm. Satoshi closed his eyes as the leaves came nearer and nearer.

'NOOOO!' screamed Max in horror as the leaves sliced at Satoshi's skin cutting his body, his hood began to rip apart as well as the cloak.

Satoshi crouched to the floor, 'PIKA PI' screamed Pikachu as he ran as fast as he could to Satoshi.

Satoshi's body was dripping blood, he slowly rose from the ground, his face had a smile on it.

'No… one hurts Pikachu and gets away with it' muttered Satoshi.

May didn't know what to do, she looked at Satoshi as if he was a maniac. The blood was dripping on the floor puddles surrounded the boy.

'You need to go to a hospital' May said. Satoshi looked at May.

'I'm okay' he replied, as he grabbed another Pokeball.

'I for-' Max was cut off.

'No let's carry on' Satoshi replied willingly. He chucked the Pokeball into the air, the Pokeball opened in a ball of light. A giant orange dragon appeared, he looked around to his trainer the orange dragons eyes widened. 'Charizard I'm okay don't worry about me, let's just win this battle'

Charizard seemed unsure.

Max returned his Pokémon to its pokeball, and took another one off his belt.

'SNORLAX LETS GO'

Snorlax came out of the ball asleep….

'Umm….' Satoshi said, looking at the deep in slumber Snorlax.

'Snorlax here's a poffin' Max said, Snorlax did not move.

'Well its seems Snorlax is unwilling to battle, Satoshi wins' shouted Norman.

Until next time sorry for this ever so late update I have been very busy with work and college!
