Chapter 7 – Day at Charicific Valley


May woke up in her bed that Flare let her and the others sleep at, she found the other beds empty getting out and gotten dressed went to the door and opened it pushing the buttons on the panel the sliding open. May saw Brock, Lurna and Max eating some breakfast that Brock had made, Brock sees her and smiled.

"Morning May, I made you a plate just in case you've woke up any time soon" Brock spoke putting it down on the table, May sat down as he put the spoon, knife and folk down.

May looked around "Where is Ash, Pikachu and Flare?" May questioned

Lurna put her spoon down with closed eyes she answered "They left early this morning before the sun was even up" she open her eyes "they should be back near mid-night or tomorrow evening depending on what happens" Lurna explained

May shook her head "Why am I not surprised"

"Ash was really looking forward to seeing his Charizard again last night" Brock said sitting back down on the chair

"That's Ash for you, but I wonder if Flare going to visit them or just keep out of sight" Max spoke and wonder about Flare "Since we met him, he seem to avoid any question about meeting Charizards on Earth"

Brock nod a little and speak after drinking some of his soup "Yes I have noticed, when I asked he avoid a answer and spoke of something else" Brock then look at Lurna "Lurna brought up a good point to this while they was doing that post round."

"What why?" Max asked Brock holding up his spoon looking right at him

Lurna then answered the question Brock nodding to her "I came up with a thought that Charizards could be different on this pokélonum and as you all notice he is kinder and caring but most of all far more of a thinker and imaginative Charizard." May and Max nod "Flare also has abilities that we never seen of a Charizard, he feels like that he far too different to them that they would understand him." Lurna explained to them both looking at each other

"Wow. Poor Flare, never thought that it could be that serious for him" May said feeling sad for him

"Yeah, it makes us think how differences scare many people, didn't think that it could be the same for pokémon" Max said putting his arms on the table his chin press down on them

Brock nods "It just make you think how much we don't know about how pokémon feel or what they think about the differences in others"

"I hope Flare will be alright then" May look over at the door out of the craft Brock lower his head a little with a hum.

During the sun raise in the sky Flare flew to the Johto region heading to Charicific Valley the sky showing very beautiful colours Ash smiled with Pikachu on Flare's back he back to wearing the jacket and belt around the waist line. Ash moved his head into view of the corner view of Flare's left eye "Thank you Flare you're a real pal. Even you said no I would have still think you're a pal" Ash spoke with a cheery voice

Flare smirked as he flew keeping a eye on what in front "You know Ash I must really thank you for this, since I been here on your world I never really travel far from the forest, seeing that castle and all the land below is amazing including your seas. I am very glad to meet up with you." Flare said to Ash with the smirk turning to a smile as he spoke to Ash.

"Pika Pi pikachu Pika pika chu chu" Pikachu spoke out with a very happy voice

"Yes Ash is really a true friend and I make him one of mine" Flare replied, Ash had tears come to his eyes and wiped them away.

"Thank you Flare, that really means a lot for me, you might be from another world all together that I might not even understand but your heart is like so many I have met pokémon and humans. You have the same heart that cares" Ash said to him Flare smile was lost with surprise turning the eyes back a bit to catch a sight on Ash turn look forwards again closing his eyes for a moment.

"In all my years no one has said that to me. I hope you mean it" Flare open his eyes and start to lower

"I do Flare, thank you for taking us to Charicific Valley but I wish you've could of came in with us" Flare about to respond to it "But I know you feel to" Flare turn his head to look at Ash better "different" Flare nod and turn back to where he going

"Thank you for understanding my feelings about this" Flare said then saw the Charizard shape mountain ahead in the distance "I think we here"

Ash look ahead moving a bit more over Flare neck to see "Yes that Charicific Valley! Flare, land just there outside the gates, we will walk the rest while you can stay out of sight by that lake of water where you see that set of Charizard stone statues" Flare comes down towards the ground.

Flare flap his wings moving his legs forwards and land on the ground after a few flaps touching his three clawed feet on the ground Ash and Pikachu jumping off his back on the ground coming up along side him placing a hand on Flare's right arm "Alright Flare, see you at night fall"

"I won't be going anywhere. Take care of yourself, you might be fine with your friend Charizard but the others might have a dislike in their eyes." Flare told Ash "But other then that you should be perfectly fine. We Charizards might look mean but there is a soft spot in all of us" Flare grinned

"I know Flare, thank you for the tip. See you tonight" Ash smiled waving a hand he and Pikachu run the rest to the large gates into Charicific Valley with the two Charizard rock statues over it holding claws, they running fast as they can really excited to see Charizard again one step closer with each running movement of his feet.

Flare watch him disappear behind the rocks and sit down against the wall pulling out of a pouch on his belt a set of playing cards "Time to give this Solitaire a try" Flare open the box up taking the cards out carefully with his claw tips and start dealing them out "I know they will be happy. But was I right about not facing the Charizards here? Am I afraid that my differences will scare them?" Flare said to himself looking at the cards he was dealing out.

Ash and Pikachu got to the two large doors towering over them and they looked up then Ash turn around looking for a rock picking it up "Lets see if Liza up" Ash said Pikachu nod and with that Ash bash the rock against the door three times then drop it on the floor waiting for someone to answer it.

The door suddenly start to open slowly Liza then came out annoyed "Who coming by at this hour, can't you read the message by the door that this is Morning Charizard Training for Charla!" Ash gave a nervous wave with Pikachu hiding behind Ash leg and giving a same nervous wave. "Ash?"

"Yeah its me, if you like we come by tomorrow" Ash said sheepishly to Liza then she smiled shaking her head.

"Don't worry, next time call ahead" Liza smiled then push it open a bit more "Pikachu, Ash come in" Liza said with an arm out point to the door. Ash and Pikachu walk in and Liza closed the door after walking in. "So when did you show up?"

"Hmm?" Ash looked at her "Oh that, well" Ash thought up a story "A trainer from the Hoenn Region that I battled had a Charizard and got me thinking so I asked if he take me here and was kind enough to drop me off and gone to visit a town near by and be back by night fall" Ash told her his made up story and Pikachu giving a nod agreeing to what Ash said.

Liza was about to question it but didn't bother "Alright, fair enough. How about I take you to your Charizard, I am sure it will be happy to see you" Liza walked with him and Pikachu they looking at the Charizards training at one enough, both amazed to see so many Charizards up already and last time he saw some just relaxing a little bit.

"Wow this is amazing, the wild Charizards up already and training." Ash said turning his head to Liza as they walk up the stone steps to her house

"Your Charizard take a drink out of the fountain next to the house every morning around this time, so by luck it should be up here by the time we get up to my home" Liza told Ash "Oh and Charla won't be happy to see another human here, it would be disgracing the grounds since a few months ago some people try to capture Charizards but failed, so if she glares at you just ignore it and I will deal with it"

Ash stopped for a second "How did he know?" Ash whispers with a hand on his chin and Liza turn back a bit

"Who?" Liza asked "Who know what?"

"Oh nothing, just something I remembered a little back in the Hoenn Region" Ash replied and carry on walking with Pikachu on his head now. Liza walking beside him coming up to the house and just as she said, Charizard was drinking some water at the fountain.

Ash smiled widely "Charizard!!!" Ash cried out running to Charizard, it turned to where it heard the voice hardly able to believe it then saw Ash running at it, Ash then hugged Charizard around it waist "Charizard I missed you buddy, it been too long since I seen you last" Ash said with a very happy smile, Pikachu hugged Charizard as well.

Charizard was startled by this sudden arrival of it trainer Ash but smiled and roared happy giving a return hug to Ash tightly roaring with glee "Charizard buddy, too tight can't breathe" Ash whizzed and Charizard release some grip still hugging Ash with happiness then let go Ash stepping back sorting out his hat.

"I see you three are happy, I will leave you three to catch up" Liza walk into her house and soon as she did Ash pulled out something from his pocket.

"Charizard I like to give you something, it really cool" Ash showed Charizard a crystal but it was a orangey red colour putting it in Charizard's claw hand "Blow some flames on it, you will see why this is so cool and why I like you to have it" Ash said to Charizard. 'And it really something out of this world, that Fire Crystal Flare gave me is amazing and hope Charizard likes it.'

Flashback

Ash woke up with the sun not even up Pikachu also awake but they notice Flare was sleeping still on his bed the covers over him even the tail covered up but the fire can be seen still burning on the tip of the tail. "He was right about the bed not being able to be let out by flames" Ash said to himself as he got dressed.

Then he walked over to Flame hearing him muttering in his sleep "Flare?" Ash whispers and Flare slowly opening his eyes the Charizard eyes dark brown in colour looking right at Ash then Flare yawned sitting up putting his legs over the edge of the bed planting the feet on the ground.

"I gather you'd wake me up. Let me get my belt and jacket on and we can go soon as you and Pikachu eaten" Ash and Pikachu nod to what Flare and they leave the room, Flare got up going to a locker opening it up he took out the jacket putting it on and the taking the belt. Then notice something.

"My Fire Crystal?" Flare took it out looking at the crystal then blow some flames on it and hummed as it glowed, he smiled then walk to the door opening it walking into the room seeing Ash at the table eating fast. Flare looked stunned watching this sweetdropping a little then spoke "Ash I got something that I think your friend Charizard will like" Ash stopped and Flare open his hand out placing the crystal into his hand

"What is it?" Ash looked at it and Flare blow a tiny flame on it Ash thought he was nuts and about to burn the hand but the crystal took the flames and glowed humming like fire burning in the wind "Wow that is amazing" Pikachu looked amazed as well "Pika" it spoke no words to say just to say Pika with a smile.

"I want you to give that to your Charizard pal, this I had since I was a Charmander but it use to be twice the size the other half sits at my own home on Pokélonum." Flare said and Ash push his hand to Flare

"I can't take this, it yours." Ash spoke out to refuse this gift but Flare put his claw hands both one below his hand and the other just above and slowly closed Ash hand up the claw hands over his.

Flare smiled "Take it and give this to Charizard. The Fire Crystal is a symbol to that of Chars on my world of true friendship. It the burning fire that in all hearts that of caring and understanding, you have that in you and I see it." Flare lets go then takes out his photo of his child. "I have missed my own daughter so long that I waited here closed from the world part from that post box. I wish to explore and give a new hope to life that never thought before. My child I feel not sure of but I wish the best that she is fine. And that I hope to see her some day, that could be with stretching my wings and searching a way" Flare said putting it away with a happy smile.

Ash put the Fire Crystal in his pokémon "Flare thank you for all this. You're a real pal" Flare gave a thumb up with a wink Pikachu smiled as well "You are Flare!" Pikachu cheered.

"Now lets go" Flare turn to the door

End of Flashback

Charizard looked at it in the claw hands and blew some fire on it then the crystal glowed with a humming of burning in the wind. Charizard looked amazed then look at Ash it Trainer "I call it a Fire Crystal, I came across it in some woods in a hole" Ash told Charizard his made up story "I think it came from up there" Ash looked up and Charizard did as well then stare at the Fire Crystal again with tears and smiling.

A tear hit it then Charizard roared happily looking to Ash it was amazed by this gift from a trainer that once it gave a hard time when evolved. Blasting Ash with flames over again ignoring Ash and even almost getting killed cause of being a no good for nothing jerk to Ash but then it turned on that very day when it almost got killed. Ash saved it's life and then Charizard saw how much Ash was of a friend.

Charizard wanted him to understand what it was saying and how much Ash was a friend to it then it thought Charizard had to do it and say to Ash even he wouldn't understand Charizard the tear disappear the crystal then glowed again "Ash you're my best friend and I will always be your friend even what hardship I caused you with my foolishness" Charizard started to speak "I am very sorry, can you forgive me?"

Ash blinked with a startled look then the crystal glow died down and Charizard spoke out "what wrong?" but it came out charizard roars then Ash got it the crystal reacted to the tears like something to do with friendship letting him hear Charizard's words.

"Charizard for just that small time I understood what you was saying and even with the past, comes the errors I pushed you too hard and I am sorry for that but we both got through it and now we great friends. Pikachu and I are your true friends till the end of days" Ash smiled with Pikachu happily jumping up on Ash head and saying it was as well in a set of Pikas.

Charizard now felt happy and good it didn't understand how for that period of time Ash could hear it words but they was heard "From the sound of the voice I heard I guess you're a he" Charizard look sheepish for a second then shook it off with a smirk "Well Charizard how about I stop calling you and Pikachu it from now on and call you two when speaking in a third person view of you two as he? How does that sound?" Ash asked them.

Charizard and Pikachu look at each other then look at Ash both nodding and saying a Charizard roar and a pika in agreeing to that "Great." Ash smiled at them both "how about giving me a tour?" Ash asked Charizard looked nervous looking at the house then the door opens

Liza and Charla came out the look she gave make Ash nervous but he kept his cause "Ash seeing Charizard is one thing but a tour is another Ash, Charla will disapprove it right now" Liza said to Ash "You can stay up here with Charizard but no where else or go out the gates. I am sorry but some of the Charizards here hate humans and just get along with me being around since they are wild" Ash nod with disappointment then thought of something.

"Charizard blow some flames in the Fire Crystal show them your gift from me" Ash said to Charizard with a smile on his face and Charizard does it and it glow with a humming sound of burning in the wind.

Liza looked at it glow Charla was also startled then she took it looking at it not even hot then drop it on the floor and slam her foot down on it "Hey!" Ash shouted with anger and Charizard was just as annoyed

"Charla what was that for?" Liza said with her hands on the waist annoyed at Charla then she snorts and lift her foot up but the crystal was intact no break nothing Charla looked stunned picking it up she blasted it with flames but it hums and brightly shining then she stopped shaking her head and looking shocked at the sound it was making it.

"Ash where did you get this?" Liza took it off Charla before she'd try something worse on the crystal "this is not from anything I seen before. This Fire Crystal is amazing to survive all that crushing power of a stomp from Charla"

Ash took it and gave it back to Charizard who was happy to see the present Ash get him was still intact "I found it in a woods in a hole and a hole in the trees like something broke through I found it cause of that strange burning noise and glow. It was amazing when I first found it. I kept it for a while then when batting that trainer I thought about Charizard and wanted to give this to him it" Ash explained to Liza.

"A crystal from space? No wonder it survived all that, must be from something that has a very high density." Liza looked at Charizard "Did you just call Charizard in a third person view he not it?"

"Yeah, I said to both Charizard and Pikachu that I won't call them it anymore" Ash smiled

"Just like me with Charla" Liza look at Charla with her looking startled then lower her head in a apologizing way to Ash and Charizard.

"Hey Charla, no problems, I been told how you feel about other humans in this place cause of something happening and I won't got any feather then this house and to the gates" Ash said to Charla then she look up to Ash with a smirk nod a little then head over to the edge and fly off to do a little training with the wild Charizards.

Ash turn to Liza "She'd just feeling sorry for causing some trouble to you and your Charizard, training is Charla way of cooling off." Liza smiled "Now you and Charizard have a blast up here" Liza turn and walk back into her house.

Pikachu smiled tugging on Charizard's leg and then tap it running away "Pika Pikachu!" Pikachu stick he tongue out playfully and Charizard smirked giving Ash the Crystal then chase Pikachu

"Hey what are you guys doing?" Ash asked then saw Charizard push Pikachu then Pikachu start chasing Charizard "Oh I see, tag! Let me join in" Ash put his bag down and put the crystal on top by the fountain running up to them and join in playing around with his pokémon.

During the day coming just beyond midday Flare just finished eating his lunch and doing some personal training doing some flamethrower attacks hitting the rocks with blasts of rock shattering. Flare flapped his wings hard wing blowing up the smoke clearing away and the punch some other rocks hard then hitting his tail against the same one followed on with a spin and a kick with the base of his claw foot smashing hard into the rock bounders.

"Now to do some lift ups" Flare pick up one of the large ones about half the size of him taking effect to lift it up then start bending his legs then raise up straight as a Charizard can then lower again then raise up again but he stop holding it up just above his bent neck to not hit his head while doing some charizard style lift ups hearing voices he rock the rock down with a crash then he grab the cards he left on the ground and everything else quickly moving behind a large wall that had a crack opening hiding in it keeping out of sight.

Flare then see them by looking around the corner "Team Magma HQ this is squad Johto we outside the Charizard training grounds of Charicific Valley" one of the Team Magma men spoke in a radio.

"Good, you know the plan, take as many as you can in the pokéballs that was given, these Charizards will do good for our Pokémon army" a voice came from it and Flare narrowed his eyes on them then turn out of sight taking a device out of his belt.

"I know that doing this might reveal me but I have to do this" Flare push the button "Ash if your hearing this, it Flare, pick the device up at once"

Ash was laughing a bit enjoying a bit to eat with Pikachu and Charizard when he heard the device Flare gave him and heard Flare speaking out of it "Ash if your hearing this, it Flare, pick the device up at once"

Ash got it out of his pocket it quickly then spoke into it "Flare what the matter? You know doing this is going to put your self in risk of revealing yourself"

"It don't matter, there three people where some crazy outfit calling themselves Team Magma moving towards the gates and I got a feeling they are not here for a party invite" Flare said to Ash with Pikachu and Charizard listening in. "I am going in to slow them down or even stop them if I must."

"Don't, I will tell Liza and get there soon as I can" Ash said getting up

Flare then spoke "I have to, as one of them I must do what I can to protect my fellow kind how ever different I am. The Primary code of our kind is protect of your kind no matter what the differences are from brains to strength or even another world. I am a Charizard in tail and heart and I must do this. Flare out" the line goes dead Charizard looking at Ash wondering if he misheard what was said.

"Charizard I got little time to explain, so here it is quick and fast. Flare is a Charizard but not from Earth, he gave me this so I can give it to you as friendship. Flare is the one that brought me here. He needs our help, gather as many Charizards wild or not, you have to help stop those three thugs and I will tell Liza at once." Ash spoke to Charizard quickly "please" Ash spoke

Charizard nod with a grin and took off to find Charla first and tell as many on the way to gather by the gate to hold off Team Magma thugs. Ash raced in the house "Liza we got Team Magma problems! A friend of mine Flare is gone out of hiding and going against them, he can't handle all three with the number of fire pokémon they each hold"

Liza got up to Ash "then stop standing here, come on" Ash nod and they run Pikachu running with them down the stairs running quick as possible can to the gate.

They got there at no time Liza then calls out "three Charizards to each gate pull them open now!" Liza shouted "We got to help this trainer Flare against three thugs that will hold 6 pokémon each" Liza told them and three charizards on each door then pulls with all their might pulling the two doors wide open but what the rest saw was startling.

A lone Charizard was fighting up to 12 fire pokémon one did a flamethrower the Charizard dodged it but hits the device on his arm destroy it. He ripped off the smoking device and then span around with his tail sending five pokémon flying landing on the ground dazed.

"Flare!" Ash called out seeing him fighting all those pokémon "Your outnumbered!"

Flare looked at him all battered up the jacket also ripped in places from claws and teeth "I started this and I will finish this" Flare spoke with those eyes piecing at Ash then Ash nod.

"Are you mad?" Liza spoke out at Ash

"No it his choose, we can't interfere" Ash said to her

"Charla help that Charizard out!" Liza spoke to Charla but she shook her head then look at Liza then she'd saw it "I guess if you don't want to interfere I guess there a reason" Liza said not liking this looking back at the battle.

Two Ninetales and a Magmar strikes with slashes but Flare shifts out of the way and then a Typhlosion does a fireblast the explosion hitting near Flare.

"Flare!" Ash cried out but the smoke clear Flare wasn't standing there. They look around then all the sudden Flare came from the sky fast hitting the Typhlosion and striking the two Ninetales sending them flying landing with the other five leaving only 4 pokémon left. The rest regrouped the three Team Magma members looking really annoyed

"That Charizard amazing, how can that one Charizard hold up against so many pokémon?" Liza asked mostly to herself not expecting an answer.

"Flare is from Pokélonum and doing this for some respecting law that to stand and protect fellow Charizards even outnumbered" Ash replied looking very concerned seeing those injuries on Flare.

Liza looked at Ash wondering what he meant then look at the heavy breathing Charizard the bashing from all those attacks was taking a toll on him then look at the remaining pokémon standing with the three Team Magma members.

"This Charizard really tough" one spoke

"Yeah a rare one indeed" the second spoke

"Lets finish this one off and take it" the third grinned unaware of the mass watching this battle

"Fire Spin!" all three shouts the four remaining pokémon power up for the attack "Finish it off!" They all fired the firespin joint into one massive one heading right for Flare.

Flare saw it and closed his wings over in front of him the fire spin hits and blasts around him, he pulled backwards by the force the pain of the flames very intense. All the others can see was a massive blast covering everything the force so intense that it was knocking dust and wind at them.

"Flare!!!" Ash now very worried about to rush out to the flames but Charizard grab him by the arms "Let go! Flare going to get killed!" suddenly without warning the flames burst out in nothingness and standing with wings widely open Flare staring at the four pokémon with burns on the wings. "He alright" Ash was amazed then saw the massive flame on the tail "Rage…"

Flare grinned even half beaten "Time to end your game, take this to your boss, never come back" Flare then close his mouth then open it a massive build up of flames in a ball appear in his mouth and then let it go the fireball full of that rage attack that built up.

Team Magma screamed with fear as it came at them and the pokémon the fireball hits with a massive flash then a massive explosion black smoke blasting out in all directions mostly up covering the cavern around the entrance of Charicific Valley. Team Magma with their pokémon blast out into the sky

"What should we tell the boss?" one spoke

"I don't know but we flying" second said in a daze

"Lets just say it was a gang up of 30 charizards" the third suggested

"Good idea. But it looks like we blasting away!" the other two spoke and third joined in. The team blasting off into the distance with their pokémon into a star

The smoke clears everyone removing either wings or arms away from their eyes the smoke clear more leaving a creator where the blast hit but Ash saw Flare breathing heavily looking over at them then fall over on his claw hands then fall down on his side into unconsciousness.

"Pika pika Pikachu!" Pikachu rushed up to Flare in a hurry

Ash running up to him as well "Flare!" They got up to him seeing all those injuries and burns over his body "Flare…" Ash had tears fall but then Flare opened his eyes slowly rising up his head

"I'll be fine. Just use some of the medicine in my pouch to the far right, it will heal me up in no time but take a few hours" Flare told Ash then cragged in pain

Ash got it out and took a bottle out of his bag "Here Flare" Ash put it in his mouth then pour in some water in his mouth Flare swallowed then grinned weakly "take it easy, rest Flare you disserved it" Flare gave a weak nod the went back into unconsciousness with a gathering of wild Charizards different sizes and Liza with Ash's Charizard and Charla.

Liza knelt down "This is one tough Charizard. He stood up against all those pokémon even at serious risk for his own life" Liza put a hand on the Charizard chest feeling the breathing improving "Whatever that medicine is, it already taking affect."

Charizard look down at Ash, Ash stood up looking at Charizard "Flare is from Pokélonum Charizard, I hear this is some legendary place from pokémon views, I seen images of this place it a real world and he got here by accident 2 years ago, been held up in a craft of his never visiting places only thinking of home." Ash said to Charizard explaining best he can about Flare

"He I only knew for a few days and he told me I am a true friend of his now. He gave me that crystal to give to you from me. He sensed how important my friendship with you was." Ash paused then continue "He is a Charizard from another world afraid that where Flare was from would make any Charizard here see him as a outcast a weird Charizard but his from another style of life. He risked his own life to save half a million pokémon of his own world and now stuck here cause of that risk unable to go home" Ash said out the story in a short and emotion plead to Charizard and everyone else.

Charizard look at Flare breathing shallowly but more stable then before then at Charla she nod with a smile then they walk up to Flare either side picking Flare's arms up and picking him up resting on their backs then two more Charizards helped pick up Flare by the legs lifting him up they walk back into Charicific Valley. Ash feeling happy as they follow behind Liza amazed to see this as they walk back in the other Charizards following behind them.

Photo fall out and land in front of Ash, he pick it up and walk on with a smile "I am sure his daughter will be very happy to hear this some day. And that will come" Ash said walking alongside Liza as the doors close behind them and the Charizards

Liza saw it and looked "You mean his a father?" Liza asked

"Yes, Flare told me, Max, May and Brock a story about it, he did this to save half a million Pokémon and his own child. A personal reason on the side" Ash said looking at it "He has no idea the cure he found worked in time to save her, but in his heart he feels it must of have and that she with the others trying to find a way through the Great Barrier to reunite with her father." Ash said to Liza "But they evolve different to pokémon on Earth, it done by years. From what I know, his kid is about 16 by now and that she'd evolved already into a Charizard a young adult" Ash said from what he understood about it.

Liza nod slowly "A style never heard of. But when did he learn to speak English?"

Ash turn his eyes for a second then back at Liza "I noticed that now, the translator was destroyed in that battle. I wonder that he learned it but kept that hidden by talking native Charizard or pokémon as he call it and the translator to help cover the truth" Ash spoke with wonder.

"Keep away the knowledge of that of fear again but I think these Charizards respect him for what he did" Liza smiled "How about you, Pikachu and Charizard come in my house after we set your friend Flare down inside to rest up and have a quiet meal with me and Charla. You can tell us more about what he told you. I am sure no one here will speak outside these walls about it"

"Alright" Ash smiled Pikachu jumping up on his head again with a happy smile to that idea Ash now a bit more happier.

They walk slowly up the stairs the other Charizards that followed disbursed and went back to their own training or what they usually do not letting their normal events get messed up by one event. They knew in a group that this one was powerful and they wanted to improve their skills seeing that nothing impossible to reach if train hard enough each day bring a new burst of energy to all those Charizards a new sense of sprit in all of them as Flare rested the battle had been the toughest he has been in ages and those that attacked would not tell the truth that what happened making a story to their boss of Team Magma that they got ambushed by the Charizards thankfully for them it was believed.
