A Run from the Past
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon. That right belongs to Nintendo and Gamefreak. I own nothing except for the plot and maybe the Pikachu Aura Guardian idea.
So guys, forget that I said anything about regular updates on Saturdays and Sundays. I'll just update whenever I have time. If you guys want to use Pikachu as an Aura Guardian or something please ask me first. I think I am the first with this idea. Pray, tell if I'm wrong. By the way, if you guys like Kingdom Hearts, you should read my friend, epicpieguy's story. It's really good. This chapter is a massive time skip, up to the start of the World Championships. Enjoy!

'Telepathy"
"Poke Speech"
Kanto Region; Tree of Beginning (2 years into the future. Since I'm going by anime language, Ash is 12.)
A raven haired boy with super messy hair woke up from his bed inside one of many rooms of the Tree of Beginning. Beside him was his ever faithful buddy Pikachu snoring very softly.
"Pikachu wake up, we got a big day ahead of us." Ash said, gently shaking his partner.
"Just five more minutes Ash, please!" Pikachu pleaded, refusing to open his eyes. He currently had a great dream of terrorizing the Ketchup Country.
"Comeon Pikachu, this is our big day to prove ourselves. Think of all the ketchup you'll be able to eat once we're done." Ash said. At once, Pikachu jumped out of bed and landed gracefully on his partner's shoulders.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Pikachu said, clearly excited. Then the duo exited the room heading off to a room that was in the opposite direction of the 3 training rooms.
Both he and Ash have changed greatly over the past two years. Pikachu was now at a golden color and he radiated power and his eyes were now a startling violet color with a hint of green. Ash was more muscular, and his hair was longer, so he pulled back into a ponytail. He radiated as much power as Pikachu, but unlike Pikachu, his eyes were green with a hint of violet. As their aura training progressed, their auras changed color at the same time, and held a speck of their partner's aura color in it. Their eyes changed color with their aura.
The aura partners arrived at their destination at the top of the Tree. Nobody went here a lot since the door that guarded the entrance to the room was broken and stomped flat as if a Rhyhorn ran over it. They both stepped into the brightly lit room, courteously of the sunlight. They found a note in the middle of the room.
"Dear Ash and Pikachu," The note said, "If you are reading this, please be aware that this is a trap." Then, insanely hot lasers appeared from the ceiling and attacked them both. However, Ash used a greenish purple Aura shield and blocked the attack.
"Nicely done Ash." A familiar telepathic voice called out. "For your graduation exam, you will be going against me. You can still graduate if you lose against me. After all I have beaten all the Aura guardians and their partners so far." She then launched a pink laser at the duo. Ash then decided to exercise an ability that he rarely used with Pikachu, or anybody for that matter. He used telepathy.
"Pikachu, activate the aura shield." Ash said. Pikachu then erected a violet green barrier that blocked the pink beam.
"Ash, now let's use our Aura lasers to counter against hers!" Pikachu said, determined to win. They both concentrated on their aura, controlling it to their will. Both of them had a blue sphere in the palms of their hands. They directed it to lock on to Mew and the sphere launched itself at Mew. The spheres morphed into lasers and joined together. One beam was spiraling the other beam and was heading straight towards Mew. She raises a paw and a pink bubble which reflected the laser. Now the laser was heading straight towards the Aura Partners.
"Scatter!" Pikachu said as both of them jumped out of the way.
"How are we going to beat her?!" Ash asked, "She trained us and now we have to beat her in a battle!"
"We need to think of something Ash, we always have before. Now is the time to act!" Pikachu said hoping to great a crazy, but brilliant plan from his partner. Ash surveyed the field. There were multiple stones on the field. But Ash's gaze fell on that one stone that was well camouflaged with the ground. At first glance it would've looked like an ordinary boulder lodged tightly in the ground, but after looking at it for a long time, Ash realized that it was a dusk stone! A crazy plan formulated in Ash's mind. He discussed it with Pikachu. Both of them agreed to the plan.
"I've given you guys enough time to think, now, playtimes over," Mew said a bit intimidatingly. She launched yet another pink laser beam at them.
"What's up with her and pink lasers?" Pikachu moaned. "Why can't they be violet or green?" A pink laser destroyed a rock behind them. They kept on running until they got to their intended destination. Mew charged up multiple beams and launched them all at Pikachu and Ash.
"Jump!" Ash mentally shouted. They both used a jump infused with the power of aura to jump higher. The beams hit the dusk stone and it broke into tiny little pieces (I have no idea what type mew's laser are, but in this story they are not psychic attributed).
"Pikachu, now, use iron tail on the dusk stone bits!" Ash called out. Pikachu did so and a bunch of razor sharp dusk stone bits bombarded Mew. She took lots of damage and fell to the ground. She waved a white flag of surrender to signify her defeat.
"To be honest, I was not expecting that. You two have grown a lot since I first trained you. Now you guys are ready to become true aura guardians." Mew said. She motioned for them to bow their head, and they received Mew's power. Since aura guardians were nearly extinct, Mew had become their bonded legendary. Most aura guardians get Celebi or some other legendary as a bonded legendary.
"Um… Ash, I know this is a lot to ask for, since I'm you mentor and all, but I've been thinking a lot about this and I was wondering… Can I be your Pokemon? It has been destined that you would be the last aura guardian, and it gets boring here alone in the Tree… so can I be your pokemon?" Mew asked a bit nervously.
"Of course Mew! I would love to have you in my team!" Ash said. Mew then nudged a pokeball in his belt and got sucked in by a red light. Mew burst out of her pokeball.
"That thing is fairly uncomfortable. It's like a prison that you can escape from." Mew said.
"Mew if you don't like it, you can stay out of it. After all, Pikachu always stays out."
"Ok, great! By the way, you got stronger to make your friends proud of you right? Well, I heard from the Palace that there is a world tournament somewhere near the Indigo Plateau. You should go."
"Ok then, Pikachu, Mew, it's time to get out of solitude and embrace the world once more.
I hope you guys liked this chapter. The moment has finally come! Ash is going to come back to society and enter the world tournament. What new powers does Pikachu and Ash have? (Besides shooting laser beams) and what new pokemon has he gotten? How strong are his pokemon now? All will be revealed in the next chapter of, A Run from the Past.
