Hey guys! I've been swamped with all the AP English stuff and stupid Algebra 2 H... ugg I hate Algebra. So here's a short chapter! It's a little dark in the beginning. Hope you like it!

There was nothing, but darkness. Ash felt like he was floating into oblivion, even though he knew he was unconscious. Was he dead? Was the procedure too much for him? He suffered so much, he felt like dying would be easier. He would meet his father up in heaven, because he remembered his mother telling him his dad died before he was born. As Ash thought about it, he didn't want to die! He had Pokemon training to do, and he had to help Mewtwo! He promised…

It didn't help the boy though, as the floating sensation continued. He desperately tried to wake himself up, but he could not do anything. He wanted the familiar presence of Pikachu on his shoulder. He wondered if Iris or Cilan would take care of his Pokemon. Ash could finally see something up ahead; it looked like a light.

He floated directly toward it, realizing his fate. As he almost touched it, he felt a touch. It felt as if it came from someone very far away…

Before the boy knew it, he was being dragged in a violent rush, straight down. He could no longer see the light; instead he was back in the dark oblivion. Was he getting another chance to live?

A voice formed in his head, I have saved you. Now it is your turn to save me… help…two...and awaken! The voice that was beginning to form broke up in many parts of the message, but Ash got the general idea. He opened his eyes.

Mewtwo was immediately by Ash's side, "Are you alright? You stopped breathing for a moment, and had us all concerned." Ash groaned and took in his surroundings. He was back on route to Nimbasa City, surrounded by trees, bushes and sunlight. Never again, would he take advantage of it.

He heard a feminine voice, "Ash! Are you okay? I'm really, really, really, really, really, really sorry!" That was most defiantly not Iris's voice. Ash looked to see where the voice was coming from, to see Mew!

Iris said, "Mew was worried for you Ash! It's so cute!" Ash was speechless; he could understand Mew?

He spoke up, "Uh, Mew, I can hear you."

Mew giddily said, "Yay! That means it worked! Mewtwo, see? I did the right thing!" Ash heard Mewtwo mumble something about "the boy almost dying" underneath his breath, but he didn't care. If it worked, that meant that he was a Legend Master!

"Does that mean you're a girl, Mew?" asked Ash. The professors theorized that the legendaries (with the exception of a couple) were all genderless.

Mew stared at him, "Of course it does! Now that you can understand me, we can have lots of fun…" Mewtwo gave her a glare, "Of course, after we save the world…" She looked slightly saddened by the fact that they couldn't play.

Ash slowly sat up, still in a little bit of pain. He decided not to tell Mewtwo about the voice he heard. He concluded it was just his conscience. Of course, why would his conscience need his help?

He ignored it and said to Mewtwo, "So, what now?" Before Mewtwo could answer, Pikachu came running over to Ash.

Ash was still surprised when Pikachu said, "Ash! It's really awesome that you're a Legend Master! I'm glad you're awake. Now I can talk to you." Ash hugged his Pokemon. He could imagine no better gift, than being able to understand Pokemon.

Ash noticed the confused looks on Cilan and Iris's faces. They had no idea of what was going on.

He smiled at them, "Guys, it worked! I can understand Pokemon!" They both congratulated him, and asked him what Mew said. Ash recounted what she said; amazing them that Mew was a girl.

After he was done explaining Mewtwo said, "Alright Ash, we need to figure out what other powers you have received. You are the only Legend Master that has been turned by two legendaries." He gave another death glare at the oblivious Mew, who was back in her happy mood, smiling at Ash.

Confused, Ash asked, "How?" Pikachu was still in his arms.

"Training, of course. It is amusing to see that Pokemon will now be training you." Mewtwo was about to continue, when all of sudden, the roar of a helicopter could be heard. Still on the ground, Ash stared at the large, gray helicopter in horror. It belonged to Team Rocket because of the obvious "R" on the side of it. It landed on the ground, only a little away from them.

Dr. Zeger stepped out of the helicopter, along with Giovanni and some grunts. Ash gasped with anger and surprise.

Forgetting his pain, he jumped up and stood in front of Mew and Mewtwo.

Giovanni noticed the child's actions and laughed, "And who might you be, little boy?"

Mewtwo whispered in his ear, "Do not tell him who you are." Ash nodded and glanced back towards the Rocket Boss. He looked just like he did in Johto, only he had a gray suit on. A Persian was standing by his side. Ash knew it looked relaxed, but it could pounce any minute.

Cilan and Iris joined Ash, making sure they had him covered too. Ash had to diffuse the tension; for even though he loved to battle, now was not the time.

He said, "Why?"

Giovanni cocked an eyebrow, "Why, what?"

He yelled, "Why are you doing this? Capturing the legendaries? It's horrible and cruel! Yeah, Mewtwo and Mew told me!" Expecting the boss to retort a trademark "evil villain" comeback, he was very surprised when Giovanni laughed again.

"You've found yourself a little protector? I didn't think that the powerful Mewtwo would need a little brat to defend him." Mewtwo looked ready to destroy Giovanni, right there, but he didn't want to become a monster.

He clenched his fist and replied, "Ash is not my protector or a brat… he is my friend and the most noble human I have ever met." Ash smiled at Mewtwo.

Giovanni smirked evilly, "So young man, your name is Ash?" Ash's eyes widened and Mewtwo wanted to smack himself! He just told Giovanni of who was interfering with his plans! Now Ash was in more danger!

Mewtwo heard Mew's voice inside of his head, "Nice work. And you say that I'm the one always messing up!"

Just had to leave you with a cliffhanger. Yes, if there's any confusion about the beginning, here is the explanation; Ash was dying. His soul was going to "heaven." He was about to die, until someone saved him. I bet you can figure out who it is. If not, you'll figure out later in the story.

Ash: Yep, you just love making me die, huh?

Larxa: No Ash! You're my favorite!

Ash: Yeah, sure. If you loved me, Giovanni wouldn't be my father!

Larxa: Oh well. Oh, by the way, today I saw Pokemon the movie black: Victini and Reshiram!

Ash: Yeah, did not like that freezing part.

Larxa: You got to ride Reshiram

Ash:... true... have I meant every legendary Pokemon?

Larxa: Pretty much, Ash. You're the luckiest kid ever!

Ash: I guess I am! Take that Gary!

Larxa: Yay, you win! By the way, what's your favorite legendary?

Ash: Hmm, that's a hard one. I would have to say it's a tie between Victini and Latias.

Mewtwo: Ahem...

Ash: ...and Mewtwo

Mew: Hey!

Ash: And Mew

Every other Legendary: what about us?

Ash: (Starts naming them all).

Larxa: Have fun Ash! See ya guys!
