Chapter 4

The TLA dialogue session:

Shadow: and we are back with The Lost aura.

Ash: hello my beautiful fans, did you guys miss me because I miss you all.

Paul: (slaps Ash on the back of the head)

Ash: Ouch! What you did that for?

Paul: because you are acting like an egotistic manic or to put it simple, you act like Kim Kardashian high on crack.

Ash: Hey! I do not act like Kim Kardashian high on crack, am I right Shadow?

(Insert crickets sound)

Ash: Okay! Who release the crickets?

Shadow: Ash stop breaking the fourth wall.

Ash: (rub his head sheepishly) Sorry.

Shadow: so where is Eric I still haven't "reward" for his attitude in lessons.

Paul: nope sorry.

Ash: I heard from Jessica that he is preparing to go Johto to relax.

Shadow: oh really, hmmmmm… oh well I was planning to have a Christmas party but since he is not here I would not have to order the large log cake.

Eric: (zoom) I'm here so where's the delicious log cake. (Said while drooling)

Shadow: so sleeping in my lessons huh.

Eric: Oh Shit!

(He starts to run)

Shadow: Bakudo number 61 Rikujo Koro (6 rods prison of light) (said while pointing his finger at Eric)

(Then six bars of light appear and bind Eric from his waist to stop him from moving)

Eric: Hey! No Bleach powers in a Pokémon story, that's illegal. (Said while trying to wiggle free)

Shadow: the story haven't start yet so don't worry about it being illegal.

Eric: (sigh) good thing you can't use Hado otherwise I will be dead.

Shadow: Actually I can so Paul, Ash can you please step out of the room for a while.

Paul: sure.

Ash: can I record this?

Shadow: hmmmm no.

Ash: Meanie (said while pouting)

Paul: come on Ash let's not disturb Shadow

(And both of them guys step out of the room)

Eric: erm boss you aren't really going to that right you can actually kill me.

Shadow: Don't worry you won't die

Eric: (release a breath he had been holding)

Shadow: instead you will feel a crap ton of pain (said while smiling like Gin)

Eric: (starts to pale)

Shadow: shall we start?

Eric: No!

Shadow: Good! (And point his second finger to the sky) Seeping crust of turbidity

Eric: you're joking right boss?

Shadow: (starts to emit a dark aura) Arrogant vessel of lunacy

Eric: You're Serious!

Shadow: Boil forth and deny

Eric: come on boss not that Hado, that will kill me

Shadow: Grow numb and flicker

Eric: (starts to sweat) erm….boss?

Shadow: Disrupting sleep, crawling queen of iron

Eric: boss? You there?

Shadow: The eternally self-destructing doll of mud

Eric: Guys! I Need Help Boss Is Crazy!

Shadow: Unite! Repulse!

Eric: …guys? …..anyone….help…I'm dead

Shadow: Fill the soil and know your own powerlessness

Eric: …mommy…..

Shadow: Hado number 90 Kurohitsugi (black coffin)

Eric: HELP!

(Eric was covered by a huge shroud of darkness which have spikes at the top and sides)

Meanwhile outside with the others

Ash: so what you guys think Shadow is doing to Eric?

George: don't know.

Simon: not a clue.

Mike: not my problem.

Jessica: hope it's not too much.

Paul: (shrugged)

Then they heard Eric's scream.

Ash: wow now I'm really curious what he did.

Jessica: maybe a kick to the royal nuts?

(After she said that all guys on the planet covered their balls for no reason)

Simon: Maybe a mental shockwave? He did that to me and I start crying within a second

Mike: nah I think he is doing a submission move.

Ash: like what?

Paul: Cross Arm Breaker? (Alberto Del Rio signature move)

Simon: Kimura Lock? (Brock Lesnar signature move)

Mike: Hell's Gate? (Undertaker signature move)

Ash: I don't know what those are but Hell's Gate sounds painful

Mike: It is, you can type in YouTube to see it.

(Then Shadow walk out of the room)

Shadow: oh hey guys

The others: hey boss

Jessica: how is Eric? Please tell me you did not kill him.

Shadow: nope, he just a bit sore.

Eric: A Bit Sore, Are You Fucking Kidding Me I Almost Saw a Light And A Staircase That Leads Up To The Heavens!

Shadow: Hey! At least you did not walk towards the light okay.

Eric: Yeah That's Great Thanks Boss For Almost Sending Me To Heaven What A Great Christmas Present!

Shadow: yeah yeah so lets the story guys so Jessica please do the intro.

Jessica: Pokémon is not owned by Shadow instead its own by Nintendo.

Chapter 4: Decisions part 2

Previously on The Lost Aura:

"Whoa I did know that you are the same as me," said Ash.

"Yeah, but I know you did not get corrupted by the aura otherwise you will be on a bed right now with Nathan watching over you," said George.

"Yeah when I sense you, your aura was blue but there were a little darkness in it so if I didn't save you in time you would have been corrupted by the darkness in you," said Nathan seriously.

"Yes but it did not happened so I thank you Nathan Blaze," said a voice.

Suddenly a bright light appear out of nowhere and enveloped the dining room and there stood the god of Pokémon himself.

"Arceus," said Nathan shockingly.

Now

Hello Nathan it's been a while since I last saw you," said Arceus.

"Yeah it's been a while Lord Arceus," said Nathan.

"Now now what did I say about calling me that," said Arceus sharply.

"Yeah but you should know that I have to keep my reputation of irritating my friends right," said Nathan playfully.

"Hahah, you are truly one of a kind Nathan," laugh Arceus.

"But I'm not here to chit-chat, I'm here because I wanted to talk to the chosen one about something," said Arceus seriously.

"But why you want to talk to Ash?" Asked Nathan. When he said that everyone was shocked, all eyes went to Ash who was also confused.

"Wait! Me?" questioned Ash while pointing at himself.

"Yes Ash you are the chosen one," said Arceus.

"But why me, I'm no one special," said Ash sadly who remembered his so called friends words and that they betrayed him because of Trip.

"You are the chosen one not because of what you achieved instead it is of your heart as you are the kindest heart I have ever seen as not only are you kind to Pokémon and you even go all the way to help others without caring for yourself and also you don't ask for anything after that," Arceus said while trying to cheer him up.

"Really Arceus is that true?" Asked Ash who is close to crying.

"Yes Ash it's true I can sense it from your soul and it is very pure so what Arceus said is true," said Nathan.

"Thanks guys I really appreciate it but Nathan I want ask where is my mom I hadn't seen her for a day already?" asked Ash with tears in his eyes.

"Your mom is resting in the sick bay as when I found her, she was knocked out by a blunt force to the head by someone," said Nathan.

"Who knocked her out?" Asked Paul angrily.

"That I don't know as when I reached there she was already knocked out and why are you reacting so angrily Paul?" Asked Nathan.

"This because she treated me well and I want to repay her as I don't like to own people," said Paul while looking away.

"Oh is that so?" Questioned George.

"This does seems suspicious," said Simon while pushing his spectacles up.

"Hehe just admit you are worry for Mrs Ketchum Paul," said Jessica.

"Shut up!" shouted Paul red-faced.

"Anyway why you want to talk to me Arceus?" asked Ash while sweat dropping.

"Actually not only I want there are others that want to talk to you as well," said Arceus.

Who?" asked Ash.

"Well they are the other legendaries of course, they want to know are you okay or not as we know what happened yesterday," said Arceus.

"Really how you guys know?" asked Paul.

"We know because we saw what happened as we use the all-seeing pond to do so," said Arceus proudly when he mentioned the pond.

"We wanted to go there to save you guys but when we saw Nathan we were relieve as we know that he will save you," said Arceus.

"Yep and I never fail saving aura guardians so I won't want to ruined that record," Nathan said proudly.

Everyone deadpanned at him and he suddenly turned red.

"What it's true," said Nathan.

"But still you didn't have to brag about it at all," said George while still deadpanning at him.

"Maybe I shouldn't but come on you have admit it is an awesome record of saving 9 people from either themselves or others," said Nathan.

"Wait 9? I only seen 5 people plus us its only 7 so where are the other 2?" Asked Paul.

"The other 2 are helping check out something and they should be back by now," said Nathan who move towards his left. Suddenly smokes was emitted from where he was standing earlier.

"Damn it they saw us," said a voice.

"Good thing we manage to escape right Oscar," said another voice.

When the smoke subsided it shows two boys.

The first boy is a crimson haired blue eyed teen. He is wearing a dark green shirt that looks like military while wearing blue long shorts and black and white converse. He is also wearing a glove that have a gem in the middle on his right hand.

The second boy is a blue haired, yellow eyed teen. He is wearing red spectacle, a blue shirt, black long pants and grey converse. (His spectacle is like Maxie's in Omega Ruby except it is in red)

"Hi boss, sorry the mission failed," said the first boy.

"Yeah, they saw us before we can collect the data from the computer," said the second boy.

"(sigh) damn it we'll talk about it later, right now introduce yourself to these two," said Nathan while pointing at Ash and Paul.

"Okay boss, my name is Oscar Black and his name is Henry Moon so it's nice to meet you," said Oscar while pointing at Henry and bowing.

"Hi as he said, my name is Henry and I'm the team's hacker while Oscar is the team's tracker," said Henry.

"Hi." "Hello" was the responds.

"Okay now that's settle so Arceus why you and the other legendaries want to talk to Ash for?" Asked Nathan.

"Actually this not the right place to talk so let's go to the Hall of Legends," said Arceus.

"But how are going to go there?" asked Mike.

"That's easy, just stand in a circle around me and let me do the rest," said Arceus.

"But what about Eric? He is still knocked out," asked Jessica worriedly.

"Don't worry we will just leave him here so he won't get to see any legend….."Nathan said before being interrupted by Eric who shouted "I'm up, I'm up."

"Hi guys, I was actually up when Arceus appeared so no hard feelings right?"

"You Idiot!" (Slap) Jessica cried.

"Hey! That hurts," Eric said before he saw Jessica crying, "shit."

Jessica starts to cry and the rest look at Eric with looks that can kill.

"If you don't comfort her…" said Nathan angrily.

"We will beat you up so bad that a Grimer will look more handsome than you," continued Mike who is pissed off.

"Erh…come on Jess I'm okay so stop crying please?" asked Eric who was slowly turning white but Jessica continues to cry. When Eric looked at the rest their face remained the same except there is an additional anime tick mark o their heads.

"…fine, hey Jess look at me for a while please," asked Eric.

"Sniff, sniff wha…." Jessica said before Eric hold her cheeks and smash his lips towards hers. Jessica was shocked as her eyes widened but she decides to enjoy it and close her eyes, while the rest had their eyes and mouth comically dropped and popped out. When Eric stopped, both of them were blushing like mad.

"So…are…you happy…Jess?" Asked Eric while blushing and stuttering at the same time.

Jessica did not answer but nod her head as she is still blushing.

"Okay…now that's settled, everyone stand around Arceus and form a circle," said Nathan.

"Alright," "okay" "yes boss" were the respond. Then the ten people stand in a circle surrounding Arceus while holding hands.

"Are you guys ready?" asked Arceus seriously.

"Yes" was heard.

As Arceus starts to glow so does the surrounding area, suddenly there is a portal beneath them and they slowly sink into the portal. When they opened their eyes, they were standing in a huge hall.

"Welcome to the Hall of Legends or as it was known as the Hall of Origin," said Arceus.

"Wow this is impressive Arceus, you really outdone yourself this is very awesome," said Nathan who is very impressed with the place.

"This is actually how the Hall of Origin looked like before it was destroyed and I was locked up somewhere that till this day I don't know the location of it," said Arceus who was thinking hard at first but decides to stop.

"Man, who in the right mind would destroy this place, this place is awesome," exclaimed Eric.

"It's actually not destroyed by man instead it was destroyed by time so when I returned, I began to rebuild this place so my children can come and visit," said Arceus proudly.

"Erm Arceus?" asked Oscar while raising his hand.

"Yes my child," said Arceus.

"Who are your children?" asked Oscar.

When the rest of the group heard this, they all deadpanned at him as it is one of the most stupid questioned they heard so far.

"Dude are you serious?" Asked Ash.

"Yeah even a meathead like Mike knows the answer," said Simon.

"That's right…wait a second did you call me a meathead bug brain?" shouted Mike angrily.

"Yes I did meathead so what are you going to do about it huh," said Simon

"Why you….." said Mike.

"Enough! How old are you guys, five and if you say yes I will lock you in solitary confinement for two months," said Nathan who was pissed off with the argument.

"We'll be good, we promise," said both of them who had been paled after they heard what Nathan said.

"Okay… the answer to your question is that my children are all the legendaries that you have heard of my child," said Arceus while looking at Oscar.

"Really then my next question is are you a male or female?" asked Oscar excitedly.

(Insert crickets sound)

When Oscar asked that question everyone opened their eyes and stared at Arceus who is sweating nervously from all the looks he received.

"Okay now just wait here while I call my children to come here," said Arceus smoothly.

(He/she skipped the question) were the thoughts of the group.

As Arceus close his eyes, suddenly tiny flashes starts to appear and the next second, the entire hall is filled with all the legendaries.

"Hello my children, I have brought Nathan and his group today," said Arceus.

"Hello father and hi Nathan," were heard from the Legendaries.

"Hey guys long time no see and look at who I brought with me," said Nathan while putting his hands on Ash's shoulder to pull him close.

"ASH!" were the reactions.

"Papa," said Manaphy while rushing towards Ash.

"Whoa! It's nice to see you too Manaphy," said Ash.

"Mana, Manaphy misses you Papa please don't leave Manaphy, Manaphy will be good," cried Manaphy. When Ash heard this he immediately hugged Manaphy and said some comforting words.

"Don't worry Manaphy, papa will never leave you again," said Ash in a comforting tone.

"Really?" asked Manaphy while looking up at Ash.

"Yes, Papa will never leave you," said Ash while rubbing away tears from Manaphy's eyes.

"Manaphy loves Papa," said Manaphy while hugging Ash.

"Papa loves Manaphy too," said Ash in a fatherly tone.

While this was happening the rest saw it too and had tears in their eyes, even those that thinks crying is not cool or manly were in tears as well.

"So Arceus why you and the other legendaries want to talk to me?" asked Ash for the third time.

"It is because we wanted to see whether are you okay or not after those traitors did to you," said

Cresselia while showing anger when she mentioned the traitors.

"Yeah Ash we were worried that you might lock your feelings away and change to a cold-hearted trainer like Paul," said Shaymin.

"Hey! For the billionth time I"VE CHANGED OKAY!" shouted Paul.

"Whoa! Calm down we were just joking so chill," said Rayquaza.

(Deep breathes) "Okay I'm calm now so Ash you're a dad now huh," said Paul.

"Yeah it seems so but I don't care since Manaphy is a daughter to me so I'll treat her as such," said Ash.

"That's true but what will happen if Mrs Ketchum heard about this," asked George.

"I'll cross that bridge when I reached there, so where is Keldeo I haven't seen the guy since I've been here?" asked Ash.

"Oh Shit! I just remembered that we left him behind in the forest," said Terrakion.

"Erm Father Can you please get Keldeo, we kind off forgotten him," said Cobalion sheepishly.

When he said that everyone deadpanned at the Swords of Justice.

"Seriously how can you even forget about your own protégé like that," questioned Groundon.

Even I'm not that cold enough to forget about my juniors like that and I've been called the coldest Pokémon on Earth," said Kyurem.

After he said that the Swords of Justice all looked down with a small thunder cloud on top of them raining down on them.

"Now that's just great, you turn them Emo Kyurem now they are more dark then Darkrai," said Zekrom.

When the rest heard the attempted joke by Zekrom, they all deadpanned at him.

"That was one of the worst jokes I heard," said Giratina.

"I think Keldeo can tell a better joke than you Zekrom," said Palkia.

"And he has the title of worst joke telling legendary in the world," said Raikou.

"I hate you guys," said Zekrom.

When they heard this, they rolled their eyes as it have happened a lot in the past meetings.

"Yeah, yeah love you too," said Entei.

"So father can you please call Keldeo so Ash can meet him, I'm sure Ash misses him and vice versa," asked Celebi.

"Okay, give me a moment," said Arceus, after he said that he closed his eyes and the middle of the hall suddenly had a portal with Keldeo running out of it but he looks pissed off.

"So Cobalion, Terrakion and Virizion can you tell me why you left me in that forest when Arceus called us?" Asked Keldeo angrily.

"Er…erm to be frank, we forgotten about you when that happened and we had just realised about you so sorry?" Stuttered Cobalion.

"…we'll talk about this later," said Keldeo deadpanning at them.

The Swords of Justice nodded their head to answer Keldeo.

"So Arceus why you called for this meeting? The next meeting is in a week," asked Keldeo.

"That is because I summoned the chosen one here and he wanted to talk to all of you," said Arceus while pointing towards Ash who is still cuddling with Manaphy.

"No way! Is that really you Ash?" asked Keldeo.

"Yes, Keldeo it's really me and it has been a while right old friend," said Ash.

"Man I really miss you and yeah it's been a while since we last saw each other," said Keldeo.

"So Ash I know this is the question all of us want to ask you but I will be straight, what are you going to do now?" Asked Meloetta.

"Hrmmm I was thinking of going to the Kalos Region to train with Paul and Nathan to better my aura skills and become a better trainer… alright I decide to do so," said Ash with fire in his eyes.

"By the way where is Latias, I had not seen her since the time I arrived here," asked Ash.

"She is spending time with Latios right now to make up for lost time," answered Suicune.

"Okay….What!" shouted Ask who is shocked.

"Oh that's right we didn't tell you, Latios is back from the dead," Said Zapdos.

"But, but, but, how?" asked Ash.

"It happened when you left Altomare, as you were leaving you unknowingly left some of your aura there and that small amount of aura manage to heal Latios and allowing him to leave the Soul Dew," said Latias who appeared out of nowhere with Latios.

"Yeah, I never got the chance to thank you so thank you Ash," said Latios while bowing at Ash.

"Hey come on now, no need to bow to me, if I know how I would do that again for anyone of you guys," said Ash.

When Nathan heard about this, he was thinking (so he unknowingly used level 5 aura huh, he is really strange but unlucky for him I like strange)

"Okay, sorry for interrupting the meeting but if Ash wants to leave for the Kalos region we need to do so now as the flight to the region is tomorrow and we haven't prepare anything yet," said George.

"Right, my bad is there anything else," asked Arceus.

"Yes, there is," said Nathan. When he said that he walk towards the direction where Ho-Oh is standing.

"Lady Ho-Oh, I ask you to take away the blessing you give him as he remaining ten will affect the training so I wish for you take away the blessing and allow Ash to be his real age," asked Nathan while kneeling.

"Stand up Nathan, you don't have to beg I will do so as it is a valid reason and I know it is the right thing," said Ho-Oh.

"Wait a minute, you meant to tell me that I've been ten for five years," said a shocked Ash.

"Yeah you've been ten for five years as when you saw me for the first time that was you wish and I granted it while giving you my blessing as well," said Ho-oh.

So when Ash heard this, he did the only thing that seems right to do so in this situation and that is saying "Oh."

When he said that everyone to laugh while Paul face palmed himself.

So when Ho-Oh starts to glow, so does Ash. When Ho-Oh stopped glowing, smoke begins to envelope Ash and when that smoke begin to disappear, there stood Ash but he looks older.

"Wow, I feel different," said Ash in a slightly deeper voice.

"That's because your voice had been broken plus you are now 15 years old," said Paul.

"Wow thanks Ho-oh," said Ash.

"No problem," answered Ho-Oh.

"Okay if that's the case the meeting is over," bellowed Arceus.

After he said that all the legendaries return to their homes to do their duties while Ash and rest are still in the hall with Ash still hugging Manaphy.

"Papa please don't go," cried Manaphy.

"Sorry Manaphy but Papa really have to go," said Ash sadly as he does not want to leave Manaphy but he knows he have to.

"Actually Ash you can take Manaphy with you to Kalos," said Arceus, shocking Ash and the group.

"Really but I thought Manaphy need to do her duties in Samiya," asked Ash.

"Actually she have a younger sibling to help her that's Phione," said Arceus.

"Wow Phione is Manaphy's sibling who knew," said Paul.

"But I don't have any poke ball to catch her with," exclaimed Ash.

"Don't worry about that Ash, I will provide the ball for you," said Arceus while closing his eyes and began to glow. When he opened his eyes, appearing in front Ash is an entirely red poke ball with its side dented in and the markings is black.

"What is this Arceus?" Asked Ash.

"That my child is a cherish ball and it's the only ball that can catch a legendary plus it's my own created ball," said Arceus proudly.

"But I thought there is the master ball that can catch legendaries as well," asked Oscar.

"Ah yes that ball well it can only if the legendary is weaken otherwise it will still burst open," said Arceus.

"Oh wow, so Manaphy will you join me on my journey?" asked Ash.

Manaphy nodded.

So Ash tapped Manaphy's fore head lightly with the ball and the ball opened up, sucking Manaphy into it. When it shakes, it only shake once and the light glowed meaning it was a success.

"Welcome to the family Manaphy," said Ash happily.

"Okay now that's settled, Arceus can you sent us back to base to prepare to travel," asked Nathan.

"Sure, just do the same thing as earlier," said Arceus.

And once again they stood in a circle surrounding Arceus while holding hands. The portal appear again beneath them and they slowly sink into it to go home.

When they opened their eyes they were back home.

"Okay it's getting late so let's all go to sleep and prepare for the trip tomorrow," said Nathan.

"Okay" "yes boss" were the responds.

As Ash prepares to sleep he can't but think what does the future had stored for him.

The TLA dialogue session:

Shadow: man that's one long chapter.

Paul: yeah it's quite tiring.

Ash: oh quit whining you're the one who wrote that much

Shadow: Just shut up or else I will take away Manaphy

Ash: (starts to pale) I'll be good

Shadow: good so let's end it here then

Paul: that's an okay idea
