Future Pairings: Emily x Ash

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER NOR POKEMON

Emily giggled when Ash continued to ogle at any new Pokemon they've come across, Emily had decided that since she already caught Majesty, the next Pokemon can be for Ash to catch. Emily blinked when she spotted a green shaped caterpillar Pokemon, and noticed it was a Caterpie and smiled. "Ash." She said calmly, catching his attention. "Yeah Em?" He asked her. Making sure she had his utmost attention and pointed to the Caterpie. He immediately scrambled his way, so he was standing in front of the Green Pokemon and took out a Pokemon, immediately alarming Emily. "But Ash, you have to battle it with Pikachu!" She told loudly. The Caterpie raised the end of it's tail warningly, glaring at Ash challenging.

Ash just gave a wide smirk, he grabbed one of his Pokeballs from his belt, enlarged it before tilting slightly to Emily. "I think I can I handle this Emily, just watch." He said before focusing his entire focus on the Caterpie, Emily along with her Pokemon and Pikachu watched intensely, to see if Ash could capture the Pokemon without actually battling. It felt like forever, but in reality, it was minutes before Ash finally threw the Pokeball at the green pillar Pokemon, directly on it's head. The Caterpie was sucked inside the ball in a red hue light before disappearing completely, causing the ball to fall on the ground. Everyone watched in tense silence as the ball started shaking, once...twice...thrice...then ping! Ash smiled widely before turning to Emily, she was looking at his Pokeball with a surprise look on her face, completely dumbfounded that Ash caught it without battling it. "Well Emily, what do you think?" He asked her with a wide slightly smug grin.

Emily just blinked at him, still surprised. "Either you have some kind magic power I haven't seen yet or that's just pure dumb luck." After her statement all the Pokemon that traveled with them nodded simultaneously, not saying anything since Emily said what they were thinking. Ash wanted to pout at that statement but shook it off, he turned and bent down to pick his new Pokemon. "Hey Ash, ready to get moving again?" Emily asked him, wanting to try to get out of the forest soon. Ash put his new Pokemon on his belt before leaving with Emily and their Pokemon.

A FEW HOURS LATER:

Emily groaned slightly when she realized in her distraction in making sure her Pokemon didn't get into an argument, courtesy of Phoenix and Shade, she managed to get separated from Ash. She turned to glare at her Pokemon, who looked at her nervously. "Thanks to you guy's wanting to fight, we missed Ash and Pikachu! As soon as we get out of this forest, I'm doubling your training sessions." She gave them a warning hiss that made them cringe back in slight fear.

Emily Potter huffed in annoyance, but for some reason, her body tingled, warning her as though danger was approaching. She heard a swoosh and then screamed as she spotted a sword close to her neck. As one, all of her Pokemon attacked the intruder.

"Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!"

WITH ASH:

"Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!" Ash immediately stopped Pokemon hunting and turned in unison with Pikachu at the scream. He turned around and noticed he got separated from Emily and started to worry. He turned to his partner. "Hey Pikachu, think you could find Emily, she can't be too far." He said and his buddy nodded.

After following Pikachu for a bit, he finally spotted a field that held Emily, but the sight he saw as soon as he stepped through shocked and angered him before he caught himself. There was a boy dressed as a samurai with his sword on the ground, but what made him angry was how Emily was crying, holding on to Shade behind a tree while Phoenix was growling at the boy, ready to attack should he get too close. "What happened here?!" He yelled out, making the boy jump nervously away from the tree.

Emily turned to see him with Pikachu and immediately made her way to him, he wrapped his arms around her body, shielding her head into his chest as he glared at the boy. "Well?" He demanded as Pikachu stood in front of them, cheeks sparking. "I... I uh...didn't mean to scare her like that honestly! I just wanted to know if she was a trainer from Pallet town." Ash turned towards her Pokemon, and they all shook their heads negatively, and he gently made Emily look at him, fingers under her chin. "Em?" He asked her softly.

Her emerald eyes had tears (Spelling?) tracks trailed down to her cheeks as she tried to calm down. But for whatever reason, she felt safe in Ash's arms. "He came out of nowhere, he swung that sword a little too close, he would have cut me with it had Phoenix and Shade haven't pulled me out-of-the-way while Raiden attacked him, everything was a bit blurred because I had a panic attack when he came at me." She told him shakily. Ash turned to give the boy a really dark glare, "You wanted a challenge from someone from Pallet town, you got it. Pikachu, battle ready!" Ash demanded, gently steering Emily to where her other Pokemon were watching.

Shade immediately leaped into his trainers arms, hoping to give her some comfort while Phoenix stood in front of her protectively. Majesty had made her way to her right shoulder, curling her tail end on her back, mindful of her stinger while Raiden gently settled himself on her left shoulder, and started to preen her hair, making her blush at the protective attention of her Pokemon and focused all her attention on the oncoming battle before them. The Samurai kid grabbed a Pokeball from his belt, threw it in the air and out came the most scary looking bug type Pokemon Emily ever saw.

It had spikes on the long end of its pincers and slight looking horns on the top of its head and Emily immediately pulled her Pokedex out and pointed it on the unknown. "This Pokemon is Pinsir, the bug type Pokemon, Pinsir is know to use its powerful claws to give its opponents a rather tight and a painful squeeze." Emily looked at Ash nervously after that revelation. She knew he heard her pokedex on the Pokemon before them, but he didn't want to back out of the challenge against the boy that scared her badly.

"Pikachu, use quick attack, latch on immediately and let lose your powerful thunder shock." Ash demanded. Pretty much right away, Pikachu moved with a speed that if it weren't for his yellow fur, Emily would have missed the mouse Pokemon. Pikachu slammed himself on top of the Pinsir's head and his cheeks started cracking with electricity before he shouted. "PIKKKAAAACHHUUUU!" He said as both Pokemon lit up with lightning. After the lightning continued for a moment, Pikachu let up with the attack and Pinsir immediately fell forward, swirls in its eyes. Emily gave a light grin at the training showing through. The Samurai kid gaped at Ash and Pikachu with shock. Ash gave the kid a rather vindictive smirk. "Any other Pokemon?" He asked him. Samurai shook himself out from his shock and shook his head. "I have a Metapod, but seeing how your too strong, I'll forfeit this battle, I don't hurt my partners. Miss?" He turned to Emily who gave him a bit of a cautious look, her Pokemon looked at him warily.

"I apologize for the way I scared you, I honestly didn't mean for it to go that far. And I have to say though, the way your Pokemon attacked me to protect you must be well cared for and well-trained, I will not challenge you today but maybe we could sometime in the far future." He gave her a low bow before he returned his Pinsir into it's Pokeball and walking away. Emily waited till she was sure he was gone before she turned to Ash and gave him a shy smile. He turned to her after making sure his Pikachu was doing good before facing Emily. "Are you okay Em?" He asked her. She gave him a nod. "All thanks to you and my Pokemon. Thank you for defending me." She said to him, causing him to blush at her a bit in embarrassment, rubbing the back of his neck.

Well here it is guy's, the next chapter, looks like we're not done with Viridian Forest just yet, but we met Samurai! How did you like that interaction? Let me know in the reviews.
