The Dark Master Within Chapter 10

"Krysov I would like you to meet Gurkinn, Gurkinn this is Krysov." Korrina introduced the two.

"It's good to meet you Gurkinn." Ash put out his hand to shake Gurkinn's.

"Oh Arceus bless you for saving Korrina, I have no idea what I would do with out her!" Gurkinn bursted out and shook Ash's had intensely.

"Hey I was just doing what I had to do no worries." Ash shrugged it off while sitting himself down at the table.

"So Korrina told me that you are an aura user also and is that true?" Gurkinn asked Ash.

Ash eased him self further into the chair when he was asked that question, he wasn't a person who liked to answer many personal questions like this especially since most of his life is secretive.

Ash took a small sigh "It is true but unlike most people I had no mentor and had to teach myself instead."

Gurkinn raised an eyebrow "I can feel the power radiating from you but some of that power is none that I have ever seen before."

"Look I don't like to get too personal with this kind of stuff lets just leave it here now." Ash tried to speak kindly.

Just as Ash finished walked up to the podium which was in the center of the dinning hall.

"Ladies and Gentlemen I would like to thank you all for attending this wonderful event that was created to help honor first round winners and also help meet new people." rambled on.

"Damn it hate it when this old bastard decides to give lectures like these." Ash thought to himself.

After about a 15 minute speech from Goodshow, Ash was still day dreaming thinking about different scenarios in which Team Rocket could be pushed back from the attacking to the defensive but was interrupted once again by Goodshow.

"Finally ladies and gentlemen, along with the 1 million pokedollars as the reward we will also reward you with this one of a kind pokeball!" Goodshow announced as he walked over to the drape covering the prize.

Goodshow pulled off the drape revealing the GS ball which had unknown origins and was priceless. "Behold the GS ball! This is the most sought after item in the world that we know of!"

The crowd clapped wildly in response to such prizes being given out during the tournament. Something just didn't seem right to Ash though as this was happening.

Just as Ash started to see movement right outside near the dinning hall his lucario came out of his pokeball.

"Master I'm sensing a large amount of targets surrounding this building equipped with weapons." Lucario communicated telepathically to Ash.

"I'm seeing the same thing now, this could be an ambush but what could possibly be worth getting here at the moment?" Ash pondered.

It hit Ash just then that they could possibly be after the GS ball which is a relic containing loads of information dating back thousands of years ago.

"Is everything ok Krysov? You looked like you were getting worried over something." Korrina asked caringly.

"There may be something that is about to happen that you may not understand but just stay close." Ash told Korrina as he reached into his jacket's pocket to check if his Colt M1911A1 was still there.

"That is all for now people and I wish you luck for all those still in the tourna-

"Nobody move we have this building surrounded so don't even think about escaping!" A Team Rocket grunt called out when he jumped through the window.

"What do you think you people are doing trying to sabotage this dinner here?" Goodshow asked ticked off.

"Shut the fuck old man before I do something you will really regret!" The grunt yelled at Goodshow while pointing a MP40 at him.

"That's it I'm calling the police now I have had enough!" Goodshow took out his phone.

"Oh no you don't old man!" The grunt smirked as he put his finger on the trigger.

*BANG* *BANG*

People started to scream when they saw the Team Rocket shot down Mr. Goodshow in an execution style with multiple holes in his forehead now.

"Alright that's it I've seen enough of this shit!" Ash pulled out his Colt M1911A1.

"Hey jackass turn around!" Ash stood up and aimed toward the grunt.

"I would like t-" the grunt was then immediately shot down by Ash but then an all out gunfire battle started.

People started to get up and run towards exits while others hid underneath the tables.

The gunfire soon was aimed at Ash who quickly flipped the table sideways to get cover.

"Well so much for a peaceful dinner tonight." Ash sighed as he reload his gun with last the magazine.

"Krysov please don't do anything stupid that might get you killed." Korrina grabbed his hand in worry.

"Don't worry about it besides the only blood these guys will see will be their own." Ash smirked and hopped up out of cover.

As soon as Ash got up bullets started flying around him and ended up getting shot in the shoulder.

"Agh fuck these bastards are going to pay for that!" Ash started to get furious and aimed down the next grunt which he was then shot in the neck.

He then moved behind a column so that way he could get a better angle on the Team Rocket Grunts. Ash shot the other grunt in the head but shot two bullets in both knee caps on the other grunt.

Ash walked over and crouched near the grunt who was now disabled "Tell me who is in charge of this operation right now!" Ash picked the grunt up by his shirt.

"N-no one is we w-were just doing this because it seemed like such an easy place to sabotage and steal an ancient relic." The grunt managed to say before hollering in pain.

"You scumbags are all liars!" Ash growled at him and took out his knife then proceeded to slit the grunts throat.

Ash looked around him taking in all the people or grunts that were shot in this ambush.

A figure started to approach him and then proceeded to clap slowly "Well done you managed to clean up these pathetic excuse for grunts and even managed to spill blood.

"Giovanni!" Ash growled then got up to charge his aura.

"I must admit though you seem like you have gotten stronger but I don't think you can quiet defeat me yet." Giovanni started to chuckle.

Ash had enough of what was going on tonight so he transferred all the aura he had and proceeded to lift up Giovanni while choking him to death.

"All you rocket scumbags deserve to die after what you have done and I, Ash Ketchum will have revenge for my mother!" Ash spat as his eyes started glowing.

*BANG*

Giovanni's body had dropped to the ground with him gasping for breath along with his bodyguards picking him up and bringing the GS ball back to the helicopter for departure. Ash on the other hand was shot once in the chest but was enough for him to collapse and start bleeding. The only thing he could do was watch Giovanni get ushered out to his helicopter in defeat.

"No that bastard is getting away but not this time!" Ash thought as he got up slowly and clutched his chest to stop the bleeding for a bit.

(CHAPTER END)
