YOU GUYS GUESSED IT! SERENA IS GOING TO BE ASH'S LOVE- Pfft, bull. As a matter of fact, I still haven't decided who Ash will be with yet, because all the potential choices are conflicting in my mind and therefore am still thinking about it. Dis chapter will hopefully be as long as the last, and if not then longer :P Hey look 67 words already xD
Again, shout out to these people! :D

Disclaimer- *bawls eyes out* I DON'T OWN POKEMON!
As usual, another Thunderbolt had hit Ash as he leapt up into the air. The attacker was currently sniggering at the foot of his bed as Ash turned around and gave Pikachu a slight glare.
"Pikachu! How many times do I have to say, STOP ELECTROCUTING ME! NO MORE KETCHUP TODAY! IMA PUT A LOCK ON THAT SHIT!" Ash complained as he walked into the kitchen and put a padlock on the handle of the ketchup drawer. He returned only to be greeted by a pouting Pikachu. Ash slightly smiled.
"Don't worry, it'll only be for a while." He said, trying to make Pikachu happy. Ash picked up all his Pokémon plus the Cherish Balls and closed the door once Pikachu got past. They both went downstairs and took their time walking around the city for Ash had no match that day. Whispers were heard all around them as people stood watching the fearsome trainer walk around casually.
Deciding to go get some breakfast, Ash headed to a nearby cafe with Pikachu on his shoulder. As they went in Ash was surprised that the cafe was nearly full of people and Pokémon eating and drinking together. They sat down at a table for two even though Pikachu just sat on the table or on the floor and ordered some Pokémon food for Pikachu and a sandwich-coffee deal for Ash.
Ash looked around in slight boredom before his eyes laid rest on a red poster with the title "Battle Boxes!". The picture in the middle was a Dragonite firing a Flamethrower at a Jolteon, which was countering with a Thunderbolt. The text underneath was what Ash's attention was more on though.
"Wanna prove that you're the best trainer on the streets? Come along to the Battle Boxes, and you better be ready for serious battling! Battle Box matches will be on all day in the park from today to next week!"
Ash mentally shrugged thinking that he had nothing to do, and took note in his mind to take a visit at this "Battle Box" thing.
Whilst their food was being made (taking a while due to Pokémon food being made, don't confuse yourself thinking sandwiches and coffees take ages), Pikachu decided to sneak Ash's phone out of his pocket and turned it on, and opened the game Flappy Pidgey. Flappy Pidgey was known as one of the world's hardest games and it angered people so much that recently a trainer strangled his own Pidgey consumed in rage. The Pidgey later on died as its wind pipe was literally crushed and the trainer was sent to jail for two years and five months without the chance of parole. Ash mentally sniggered at the idiot at the time and started to play the game along with Pikachu, but soon felt the same feelings as him. Not noticing someone walk up behind him, he continued to stare at Pikachu.
"Ahem, your coffee, sandwich and Pokémon food are ready!" A woman that looked around 20 said in the shop uniform, staring at Ash. She had a bowl of Pokémon food in one hand and the sandwich and coffee in the other. Ash thanked her and turned around again, putting the bowl in front of Pikachu. He took his stuff from her and began to eat along with Pikachu. Halfway through his sandwich, he realised that the woman was still behind him, and almost choked on his sandwich in surprise.
"Erm, can I help you?" Ash said slowly.
After rejecting a certain Pokémon battle, Ash was walking through the park with Pikachu at his side. He had arrived in the heart of the park, and saw around ten battlefields set up, all but one full of trainers and Pokémon battling together.
Suddenly, a female voice shouted out loud surprising nearby people.
"Yeah! Nobody can take me and my Garchomp on!" Ash curled his hands into fists as soon as she heard her voice. He noticed a crowd around one of the battlefields which was also the origin of the shout and pushed through the people, seeing a boy sitting with his Golduck which was fainted and was resting its head on the boy's lap.
On the other side of the battlefield stood a woman in a black coat, her height at around 5'8 and long lemon-coloured hair. Stood next to her was her famous menacing Garchomp which held its head high. A smile arrived on Cynthia's lips as he saw that nobody had spoke to try and challenge her.
Ash couldn't resist putting that woman in her place. That bloody woman that made him lose everything in his life. That fucking woman who was the reason he was what he is now. Swallowing his rising anger, he tapped her on the shoulder, and gave her a look of pure hate.
"I'll battle you..." Ash spat, walking to the boy who was crying on the floor next to the Golduck.
"Move your sorry ass or I'll move you!" Ash growled at the kid who was in the way of his path. The terrified kid ran, dragging the Pokémon with him and Ash continued to make his way to his trainer box. All the pent up anger he had inside him was struggling to stay confined within him as Cynthia looked at him.
Cynthia on the other hand had no idea that Ash knew that she tipped off his friends, and in return she gave a cute smile and winked at Ash. Ash's mouth twitched at this and he gripped a Pokeball tightly. Maybe she could mess around with Ash a bit more and make him crazy for her just like most of her male fans. A random guy walked to the side of the battlefield and decided to be the referee.
"This will be the match between Cynthia Shirona the current Battle Box Champ and Sinnoh Champion versus Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town! Trainers, release your Pokémon!" Ash raised an eyebrow at the man for knowing his name, but then again he probably should know better than think he wasn't well known at the tournament for he wielded the power of Legendary Pokémon and had a ruthless reputation.
"Go on Garchomp, I know all I need is you to win!" Cynthia said, giving Ash another smile. Her Garchomp walked to its side of the battlefield and Ash resisted the urge to go to Cynthia and wipe that smile off her face.
"Sceptile, I need you!" Ash said, wanting the battle to start already.
"Aight, let the battle beg-" He was interrupted as Ash told Sceptile to use Leaf Blade on Garchomp. Garchomp barely dodged not anticipating said attack.
"Keep it on its toes Sceptile, use Leaf Blade again!" Ash commanded, not caring that Cynthia was giving him a glare because of the fact that he had a head start.
"Don't let Sceptile hit you Garchomp, use Dragon Claw!"
Garchomp lunged forward with a glowing purple claw and attempted to slash at Sceptile with it, but Sceptile was too quick. It ducked and tackled Garchomp to the floor, and attacked it relentlessly with the glowing green blade on its arm.
Garchomp cried out in pain before hearing its trainer's voice shouting at it.
"Garchomp, kick it off!" Cynthia shouted desperately.
With a burst of strength, Garchomp kicked Sceptile off itself with both legs and stood back up, albeit slowly due to the damage that was inflicted on it.
"Great job Garchomp, now use Earthquake!" Cynthia said hopefully.
"Sceptile, jump in the air and use Rock Tomb underneath you!" Ash said, ready for the Earthquake. Sceptile launched itself in the air and used Rock Tomb underneath itself. Huge rocks littered the battlefield and as soon as Garchomp used Earthquake, the rocks shattered and now the entire battlefield was covered in small sharp stones. It was a pain to walk around and Garchomp didn't want to hurt itself, so it stayed where it was.
Sceptile finally landed, wincing slightly as it almost slipped on a rock and hit its foot on another one.
"Now, use Dig!"
Sceptile dug underground and only Garchomp was visible on the field.
Knowing that Garchomp was going to be hit very quickly, she had no choice but to tell Garchomp to dodge. Garchomp took a few steps forwards and tripped over, clutching its foot in pain.
"Energy Ball!"
The ground underneath Garchomp erupted as a spinning ball of green energy rammed into Garchomp's back and made it fling into the air, dealing moderate damage. The pseudo legendary Pokémon roared as it landed back on its feet, albeit winced when it landed on the sharp rocks that littered the field.
"Garchomp don't let it get close, use Dragon Pulse, full power!" Cynthia said with a hint of desperation in her tone.
Garchomp powered up a navy blue orb in its mouth and let it loose, rapidly letting loose multiple orbs of spinning energy towards Sceptile. Surprisingly, Sceptile actually tried to block it with Leaf Blade but after two seconds of surprising resistance, Sceptile fell to the amount of orbs and was on the floor, panting heavily.
Showing her ruthless side, Cynthia decided she was going to go further to make things definitely sway in her favour.
"Garchomp, use Outrage at full power too!" She shouted in a triumphal tone of voice. Ash's eyes widened as his anger returned in a flash.
"You little, Sceptile, get the hell out of there!" Ash yelled out loud, giving Cynthia a death glare. However, Sceptile didn't have time to get up as a huge blue and purple beam of energy smashed into Sceptile, making an explosion of smoke expand over Sceptile. Cynthia giggled a little, and looked at Ash.
"Hey, that was a pretty fun battle. Too bad you weren't enough for me!" Cynthia smiled, winking at Ash. Ash was brimming with anger as he stared at Cynthia with hard cold eyes.
"You..." Ash began furiously, until he saw Sceptile trying weakly to get back up on its feet. Its body was covered in bruises and cuts, but it was still willing to go further.
"How naive..." Cynthia said, fuelling Ash's anger. Ash silently returned Sceptile, and quietly spoke.
"A rematch?" He said, looking at his feet mysteriously. Cynthia thought this was hilarious.
"A rematch? Haha, sure thing! But on one condition. If I win, you leave the region!" Cynthia said winking. Little did anyone know, she was purposely trying to rile up Ash so he'd do something that could get him kicked out. She was gonna be safe, and more importantly, her title!
"You gonna stick with Garchomp Cynthia?" The random referee said, forgetting to say Sceptile lost because the author of the story has completely lost focus whilst typing this.
Cynthia nodded, and waited for Ash to send out his next Pokémon.
"You'll regret hurting Sceptile..." Ash said darkly, "Face one of my strongest Pokémon! Charizard, I choose you!" He said quietly. Ash threw the Pokeball onto the battlefield and it rolled nonchalantly towards Garchomp. It halted a few metres shy of Garchomp and caused Cynthia to laugh.
"This is your strongest Pokémon?! Pfft, it's still quaking in its Pokeba-" Cynthia sneered, but was interrupted as Garchomp got close to the Pokeball. It erupted open and a huge dragon-like Pokémon appeared and grabbed Garchomp by the neck with its claws, As Charizard reached its full height, Garchomp was seven feet off the ground struggling to get out of the choke hold.
"Now Charizard, avenge Sceptile. Blast Burn!" Ash commanded loudly. All eyes were glued to the sight as Charizard unhinged its huge jaws and prepared a mini fireball within its mouth, and extruded the fireball to a huge version as the attack got closer to Garchomp. Just before impact, Charizard released Garchomp from the tight lock to save its own claws as the flames engulfed Garchomp. The force of the attack sent Garchomp flying back to Cynthia's side of the field as more bruises complemented the scorch marks around its body. It was clear that Garchomp was knocked out.
"Ash Ketchum wins this battle! Cynthia, send out your next Pokémon! " The referee said with excitement, staring in awe at Charizard.
Cynthia was getting annoyed now that Ash was proving himself to be a match for her. In public too! She was going to put him in his place.
"Go Spiritomb! Use Will-o-Wisp!" She commanded, throwing out her Pokeball.
The Pokeball opened and revealed a rather big Spiritomb (for it was bigger than most of its race) and it summoned a small purple/blue ball of fire in front of its face. Without doing anything physically, it moves the weak ball of fire towards Charizard.
"Charizard, blow it away then use Flamethrower!" Ash countered.
Charizard flapped its mighty wings creating a current of air around it. The air blew away the flame, dissipating it. Charizard then flew up in the air circling Spiritomb powering up a Flamethrower.
"Spiritomb, knock it out with Hypnosis!"
Spiritomb released a pink faint hue from its body that travelled to Charizard, at the same time Charizard released its Flamethrower. The Flamethrower simply licked Spiritomb causing almost no damage whereas Charizard fell out of the sky and into the ground, creating a loud crash and another cloud of dust.
Cynthia grinned.
"One of your strongest Pokémon?" She remarked with one eyebrow raised. As the dust cleared Charizard was sprawled across the battlefield with Spiritomb nowhere to be seen. Out of nowhere, Ash started laughing.
"What's so darn funny? Spiritomb, where are you?" Cynthia demanded.
"Charizard landed on Spiritomb... BWAHAHAHAHA!" Ash burst out laughing at the end. "The only way for Spiritomb to be free is for Charizard to wake up!"
To make the situation even more awkward - and slightly hilarious - Charizard let out a huge snore that soon became a frequent sound.
Lol this chapter was nowhere near finished, however I literally just got my PC back today from a repair shop, as I previously mentioned the PC didn't turn on randomly for 15 minutes. This time it didn't turn on at all so I had it repaired, else I'd lose all my school work and project work and stuff. I'm only uploading this unfinished chapter to show I'm not dead. xD Sorry it was bad and for the late update! D:
