Hello there!
I don't have anything else to say than this, actually: Here's chapter 10!
Enjoy the chapter and don't forget to review at the end of it (you're actually getting more and more bad on doing that :P)!
R&R!
"And then he started to act like THE biggest jerk I've ever seen!"
Brock groaned as he passed one of the breakfast tables, Ash just couldn't stop insulting people, could he? The few days he had been staying here, he had done nothing but seduce a few girls and insult the others in his path... and how is it that he is somehow able to keep himself away from their death-grip and get out of working?
Well, Brock sighed, at least they don't know who he really is...at least for now... they only think that he's some strange friend of Brocks that he's too ashamed to really introduce, and they are right... in a way.
He walked out from his house, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, the breeder continued towards the hill where Ash had set up camp.
Brock slowly walked up to the tent on top of the hill, and was just about to look inside when...
"You won't find anyone in there."
The breeder jumped slightly at the sudden call, he turned around and saw Ash sitting there in his usual dark clothes and was... meditating?
Brock walked up to Ash, he had his eyes closed and seemed really relaxed, he looked on with confusion and frowned a bit when he felt some kind of calm aura that was radiating off the trainer.
"Ash...?"
"No, I'm Barry..." The voice was filled with such sarcasm that even Brock couldn't help but notice it.
"Ha...ha..." Brock had stopped acting so nervously around Ash, he knew that the trainer only made empty threats... that's what he thought anyway. "Seriously, when are you going to introduce yourself to the other guests?"
"Never."
"Okay..." Brock grew more frustrated, Ash only gave the simplest answers he could find... "You need to do something, the wedding is in four days and you haven't even turned up at any of the rehearsals!"
"Neither have you." Ash opened his eyes for the first time and looked at the embarrassed breeder with a knowing smirk. "Don't you think I know what's going on down there? You avoid the rehearsals and is only here because you needed to find some excuse to get out of it, face it, you're scared."
"I'm not scared!" Brock shouted, scaring away a few Pidgeys. "You don't know what you're talking about!"
"Face it, Old-Twerp." Meowth appeared from inside the tent with Pikachu behind him. "Me and Pikachu here have infiltrated the wedding... and YOU are avoiding everything!" The smirk grew bigger on the scratch-cat's face. "You only greet the guests and then you disappear, you're nowhere to be seen... why? Because you're here and are trying in vain to convince the boss to come to the wedding... it's a lost cause, Old-Twerp."
"I... I..." Brock didn't know what to say, he knew that they were wrong... but were they really that far from the truth? "You're wrong!"
"Sure/Pi." The three of them said at the same time as their smirks grew bigger and bigger with each passing second. "But I must admit, Brock, you have invited some hot girls and..."
"Speaking of which..." Brock started to glare at the trainer that was still seated. "What was that thing about Dawn and her kid? Couldn't you just avoid insulting them?"
"Is he speaking about the Third-Twerpette and Mini-Twerp?" Meowth asked with a frown. "For the record, they insulted us and abused Pikachu here."
"Pika." The rodent nodded and a little shiver coursed down its little spine. "Pikachu, Pi pi-pi chu!"
"I don't think I should translate that." Ash yawned. "But I think it's time for you to go." He then started to look out at a specific side of the hill.
"Why are you always looking in that direction, Ash?" Brock asked with a frown.
"No reason..."
Brock walked up to Ash and looked in the direction that the trainer was staring at, he then got an 'Oh...'-look when he saw that it was facing towards the parking lot and a certain wreck.
"Is that really necessary?" Brock frowned a bit. "Isn't that a little too much? You can't go around and ruin people's things just because you feel like it!"
"Well, sorry that we stood up for your girl when you didn't have the balls to do so!" Came Meowth with his usual smirk.
"What do you mean by that?" Brock groaned, when were the insults ever going to end?
"I'm talking about how you only stood there when Loser-Twerp tried to grab Bird-Twerpette's..."
"That's enough!" Brock cried out and walked away, frustrated. "If you want to stay here and feel sorry for yourself, fine! Just don't take it out on everyone else!"
They looked at the back of the retreating breeder for a while... then, after twenty seconds of silence, Ash broke the silence.
"Boo... hoo..." The voice was so bored that even a Slowpoke would frown at it. "What do you think, guys?"
"I don't know, boss." The cat seemed to think. "Would it hurt to go down there and check it out?"
"I'm still waiting for the 'Elite's that's surely going to be here'..." Ash frowned as he sent a death-glare towards the embarrassed cat. "So... tell me the truth, how many elites are here?"
"Well..."
"REAL elites, not coordinators or something else..."
Meowth quickly shut his mouth and paused to think. How many were there?
"Five gym leaders, one Frontier Brain and... one Elite Four..." He sighed. "Sorry, boss, but I think that's all that's going to turn up..."
"And I've beaten them all..." Ash growled as he got up. "Come on, let's get something to eat in this shit-hole."
"Stupid Ash... doesn't know what he's talking about... stupid talking cat..." Brock mumbled as he walked down towards the house with his hands in his pockets, cursing everything around him like a certain trainer would've done. "Don't know what he's talking about... jealous... stupid Croagunk..."
"Brock!" The sound of his fiancés voice made him to snap out of his thought and look towards the source of the sound and gulp.
"They've heard about Ash... I'm going to die..." Was the only thought that ran through his head as he saw that every girl attending the wedding stood there and were looking at him with unreadable expressions…
"Brock, we're going to look for clothes and dresses for the wedding... would you mind taking over the work and make sure that everyone is doing everything they should?" Holly asked with a smile as she walked up and gave him a peck on the cheek. "Really? That's nice of you! Bye!"
"W... what? Wait! I...!" It was no use, Brock couldn't figure out how they could all disappear so fast... "Guess I need to do my duty..."
The breeder walked towards the gym with a brave look, he gazed out towards the workers that worked their hearts out just to try and appease the girls... Brock couldn't help but feel pride towards his fiancé who managed to properly control such a big group of people.
He could see them all there. Gary, Max, Paul, Tracey, Flint, Forrest and his brothers, Lucian, Kenny, Barry, Nando, Conway, Rudy, Norman, Lt. Surge and... wait a minute... where's Drew and Harley?
Brock smacked himself on the head, he had forgotten that Harley followed the girls to the dress-store for a reason that Brock didn't want to know...
But Drew... where was he...
Brock continued to gaze around the gym, then he saw a big mass sitting in a chair and looking out towards the gym with a satisfied smirk.
The breeder sighed and walked up towards the greenette, he had a firm look on his face and wouldn't back down, no matter how big his adversary was...
"Drew..." Brock started to hesitate immediately as he saw the abomination turn towards him with his greasy hair and his sweaty face. "Um... shouldn't you be... working?"
"I AM working." The former coordinator stated as he made a gesture towards the work-scene. "I'm the one who makes sure that nobody injures themselves as they work!"
"Okay..." Brock hesitated once more and backed away, he then turned himself towards the group and whistled to get their attention.
"Excuse me!" He called out, the group of men turned to him with questioning looks. "I just want to say that the girls are out on a shopping-spree so it's my job to make-"
"Alright!" Came the voice of an irritating blond. "Freedom is ours!"
"Now, calm down, Barry." Brock tried and reason with the mob... but he could hear several of them murmur that 'the idiot is right' and look towards the breeder with disbelief in their looks. "We need to keep working so that the girls can see that we-"
"We've worked long enough!" Lt. Surge stood up and walked towards Brock. "The Mankey is right, it's time for our freedom from slavery and dictatorship! It's time for a rebellion!"
Even if Lt. Surge's words were blown out of proportion, the mob seemed to agree with him and started to chant and shout, it seemed like they could go on forever... at least until the girls came home...
"Alright!" Brock had enough after that they had shouted several rather obscene words about the girls….. and about him as well. "Fine! We will take a short break, but then I want you to..." He stopped talking as he saw that the gym was empty... how could everyone so fast even after such a long period of manual labour?
The breeder sighed and walked out, he looked around and saw several of the males just lying in the grass outside the gym, relaxing, some of them had gone through the kitchen fridge and drank some beer while the rest just stood around, enjoying the fresh air.
"I'm telling you!" Came a rather high pitched voice. "It's the fastest there is! It's nearly indestructible and..."
"Shut up, punk!" Lt. Surge roared at the former Sinnoh champion. "We don't give a shit about your little toy!"
"I'll show you!" Barry exclaimed at the uninterested mob as he ran towards the parking lot. "I'll bring it to you and I'll show you that it isn't a toy!"
"Is he always this… crazy?" A sixteen year old asked a researcher with brown hair.
"I don't know, Max..." Gary seemed to think. "I don't think he is... I think he just had a rough childhood..."
"I don't think his childhood ever ended..." Brock muttered as he placed himself next to them and joined the conversation. "How are you, Max?"
"Fine, thanks." The gym leader's apprentice smiled. "Still a little shocked that you're getting married, but I'm sure that I'm not the only one!"
"Very funny..." Brock frowned as he glared at the laughing Gary.
"So... did you ever find... you know." Max seemed to hesitate as he asked this.
"Who are you talking about?" Brock gulped, he really didn't want to lie to the young boy.
"I'm talking about-"
The voice of the bespectacled boy was halted by a high and rather girlish scream that made several males look around for a poor little girl in need of help... but they frowned when they didn't find any damsel in distress, but were rather disturbed when they saw a blond man come running towards them screaming in that rather girlish manner.
He stopped a few meters from the mob and continued to scream for a while, causing several spectators to clap their hands over their heads to try and muffle the screams.
"WHO DID IT!" The sound of the voice could probably break glass. "WHO ATE MY CAR!"
His statement caused several people to 1augh, who would eat a car?
"IT ISN'T FUNNY!" Barry cried out as tears of embarrassment and grief flowed down his cheeks. "I WILL FINE OUT WHO DID IT!"
The mob then heard a great roar that caused Barry to jump and release another scream as a silhouette of a dragon appeared in the sky.
The great dragon was dark blue and had a red underbelly. There was also some sort of gold cross on its snout, all in all the pokemon looked like a mix between a Sharpedo and a jet... and it scared the pants off most people on the scene.
The dragon landed right in front of Barry and everyone could see the man in dark brown clothes and a Stetson hat was seated on the great dragon... there was also a yellow rodent and cat perched behind him.
The man jumped down to the ground and landed in a crouch, he then looked up and looked at the males with pity. His gaze was then directed to the intimidated blond that backed away a bit.
"Garchomp..." The man ordered in a low voice.
The dragon smirked as he spit out some sort of round and wide rubber circle... it was black and resembled a... tyre?
The former champion screamed as he recognized his jeep's tyre.
"You... YOU ATE MY CAR!" The blond started to shriek at the dragon at that same high pitch, causing some of the other males to snicker. "I'M GOING TO FINE YOU AND MAKE YOU PAY WITH EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT! WHO'S YOUR TRAINER!"
Everybody sweat-dropped at Barry's stupid question, some of them started to laugh out loud at the man's misfortune.
"That would be me..." The dark voice of the man caused Barry to halt in his outburst, but that didn't last long as he started to shout once again.
"OKAY MISTER! YOU'VE GOT TEN SECONDS TO PAY UP!" He looked at his pokétch and started to count. "ONE, TWO, TH-"
"Ten..." The man's voice caused Barry to halt once again, which was probably some sort of record by now.
"Okay! You asked for it!" Barry ran to the other side of an imaginary battlefield. "I challenge you to a battle!"
"Forget it..." The man growled and was about to walk away as he recalled his pokemon.
"Look at that, don't you recognize a coward when you see one?"
The man turned and faced the smirking Paul with a glare that would give you a taste of what hell would be like, but the Pyramid Master only continued to smirk.
"Afraid to lose to a Mankey? I get you, Paul." Lt. Surge saw what Paul was going at and joined in with his taunting smile.
"It will be as you wish..." The man growled once again and stood himself 20 meters opposite Barry. "Who will be the judge and what are the rules?"
"Who's that?" Max asked as he felt a very unpleasant chill go down his spine as he looked at the man with wide eyes. "Do you know him?... Gary?"
The researcher didn't answer, he was too busy looking at the soon-to-occur battle to even notice the young boy's questions.
Brock walked up to the middle of the field and held up his hands, and out of habit, said the next few lines.
"This is a three on three battle between Barry Jun from Twinleaf Town and Ash Ketchum from Pallet T..." He stopped mid-sentence as he realized his mistake.
The emotions were mixed... but they all said one thing:
"ASH?"
"Nice work, idiot." Ash growled silently so only Brock could hear. "Your wedding gift will now be experienced very painful..." Ash was about to walk towards the breeder with clenched fists... but Brock found his composure again and realized how he was about to save his body from a painful beating.
"No substitutions are allowed and the one who loses all his pokemon first loses the match! Questions? Begin!" He then ran away as fast as he could and hid behind Gary.
"Empoleon! I choose you!" The blond man cried out and summoned his large penguin that was a mix between metal and water elements.
Ash stopped mid stride, as he cursed Brock silently. If he punishes Brock now he would lose the battle... and he has never lost or walked away from a battle...
"Sceptile, fight to the end." He said in a low tone.
The red and white orb opened and revealed a large, green and powerful lizard that looked like it had seen its fair share of battles.
Ash looked at the crowd, he was slightly confused that none of them said anything... but they probably wanted proof that it really was him... and he would give them proof, but it wasn't the kind of proof that they would expected.
He directed his gaze towards the extremely nervous, blond, trainer that seemed to thinking as hard as he could... which wasn't a whole lot.
"Are you going to stand there all day?" The calm yet monotonous tone of the trainer surprised everyone, it couldn't possibly be Ash, the Ash that they knew would be as energetic as Barry was at this moment. "I don't have all the time in the world..."
Barry seemed to buy Ash's taunts, because he got a furious look over his childish face.
"I'm going to show you 'standing there all day'!" He didn't notice everyone's sweat-drops. "Empoleon! Use Drill Peck and finish this quick!"
The penguin let out a shriek as his bill started to spin around in such speed that the dust around him was sent flying. He charged towards the lizard at a really fast speed... but the lizard only stood there.
"Sceptile, use Dig." The calm tone of the trainers voice caused everyone's eyes to widen, couldn't he see that the attack was clearly coming towards him at such a speed tha-
The lizard dived into the ground as he dug at an even faster speed that Empoleon could manage, the penguin missed him by just a few centimeters.
"Watch out Empoleon!" Barry warned his pokemon. "He can come u-"
He trailed off when he heard his pokemon cry out in pain and get punched away by his opponent's pokemon who had just emerged from the ground.
"Empoleon!"
"Finish this..." Ash gazed out towards the battlefield and seemed to smirk. "Now."
Empoleon was about to get up from his crouching position, but suddenly a green and glowing leaf smashed into its back, causing it to cry out in a shrill cry that caused half the spectators to hold their ears...
There was no more movement of that pokemon.
"Empoleon is unable to battle!" Brock had come out from his hiding place and stood in the middle of the field. "Sceptile wins the match! Barry, send out your next pokemon!"
"Such a waste..." Ash shook his head as he saw Barry fumble in recalling his pokemon and take out a new one. "Why doesn't he understand that he has no chance?"
"Heracross! I need your help!" He threw the ball and summoned the bug pokemon that looked ever eager to battle.
"This is a battle between Sceptile and Heracross! Begin!"
"Megahorn! Now!" Barry cried out and his pokemon started charge towards its opponent with a white glowing horn. "And make it count!"
"Sceptile, just evade it... and continue to evade it, he's going to use that a lot since it's the only attack he has that's effective against you." Ash shook his head as he saw that he was right by the look on Barry's face.
Sceptile easily dodged the bug's attack, he even gave him a little slap with his tail as he jumped over him.
"Don't give in, Heracross!" Barry encouraged his pokemon. "Use Megahorn again and again!"
The same thing happened over and over again, the bug charged the lizard, the lizard dodged the attack and gave him another taunting slap with his tail... that happened about twenty times until Barry figured out that it wasn't working.
"Heracross!" He called to his pokemon. "Let them attack! Wait for it!"
"Is he really that stupid, Pikachu?" Ash asked with a frown as he saw the confident smirk Barry had.
"Chu." The rodent nodded from his shoulder, he then shook his head as he pitied the poor pokemon that served under that trainer.
"Sceptile, let's finish this with Quick Attack." Ash ordered his pokemon with a calm tone.
The lizard nodded and started to rush towards the bug-pokemon with an incredible speed, causing the spectators to look on in awe.
"Fire a Hyper Beam at him!" Barry yelled in a high voice with a confident smirk adorning his face.
The bug opened its mouth and released a powerful orange beam towards the target, it was closing in, but Sceptile didn't avoid the attack.
"Turn the Quick Attack into an Aerial Ace... and spin while you're doing it." The command was said almost in a whisper, but Sceptile heard his master.
The lizard jumped and twisted its green body so that the beam passed right beside him and flew just centimeters beside Ash's head before it disappeared into the sky.
Sceptile used his strong legs to propel himself very high into the air, and then he directed his path towards the bug pokemon that was just standing there, panting, from releasing the hyper beam.
The spectators could hear two sounds, one of it was when Sceptile broke the sound-barrier... and the second was when he crashed into his opponent and caused it shriek in pain, lots of pain.
"Heracross!" Barry did his traditional, dramatic, pose before he ran towards his pokemon and picked him up.
"Heracross is unable to battle! Sceptile wins the battle!" Brock declared, he had disappeared during the battle, but he now stood at the side of the field and lowered his left arm. "Barry, send out your next pokemon!"
"I... it's impossible..." Barry was dumbfounded as he recalled his pokemon. "I... I didn't even land one hit in two battles..."
"You know why?" The frown was clearly visible on Ash's face, even if he was wearing a hat. "When was the last time you trained your pokemon? Since you lost your undeserving title?"
Some of the spectators seemed confused by Ash's statement, but others seemed to get what he meant and nodded knowingly.
Barry thought about it for a moment, he had actually slacked off a little with his training since he became the champion (in other words: He didn't train at all)... so maybe that's why he couldn't land one hit... his pokemon were out of practice!
But then a smirk was visible on the human-mankey, he took out another pokeball and threw it into the air. The ball revealed a large majestic bird that soared into the air before coming to hover in front of its trainer.
"Looks like he got it." Ash whispered discretely to his pokemon.
"Got what, boss?" The cat asked puzzled and slightly annoyed, he was slightly annoyed at Sceptile for defeating his opponents so easily since Meowth was next in line for battle.
"He understood that the pokemon that he trained weren't strong enough... so I'm guessing that this one has been in some kind of day-care center." Ash stated knowingly as the smirk grew on his face. "This might actually get interesting."
"This is a battle between Sceptile and Staraptor!" Brock cried out as he had once again moved onto the middle of the field. "Begin!"
"Sis, I'm tired!" Came a whining voice from a person that we all know too well. "Why do I need to carry everything?"
"Because you're a guy." Holly stated simply with a smile as she carried a light plastic bag in her right hand. "You're are stronger than us girls and you need to show it!"
Harley didn't seem to accept that statement for some reason... but he continued to carry the bags while trying to keep his whining to a minimum.
"So, Holly." A beautiful brunette walked up beside her best friend and smiled a smile that would put Mew's cuteness to shame. "You still haven't told us who Brock's Best Man is."
"I know..." Holly hesitated as she looked around nervously, the rest of the girls seemed to be interested in the matter as well and listened intently to the pair, all except for Sabrina who just smirked. "But... why do you really need to know?"
"Because..." May sighed as she rolled her eyes. "According to the wedding-plans, I'm going to walk towards the altar with my arm around his just before you and Brock... and then after the wedding we are to start dancing after you guys… so isn't it more than reasonable to let me know who Brock's Best Man is?"
"I remember..." Holly nodded, then she got a teasing smile on her face. "And you know what they say: The two who does that are the next couple to get married!"
"Holly!" May playfully hit her on the arm as she felt her face grow red. "I'm serious, won't you please tell me who I'm going to walk with?"
"I'm not sure if he's even going to be here..." Holly sighed as she got a slightly depressed look. "I think Brock said that he was really busy or something like that..."
"But, what happens if he doesn't come then?" May asked puzzled with a slight frown, she still didn't know who would be her 'date' at the wedding.
"Well..." Holly seemed to think, hard. "I'm not entirely sure... but I think Brock's second choice is either Gary Oak or Forrest..."
May made a gagging-noise, while the others all laughed.
"Gary!" She laughed. "I'll take anyone, except Gary Oak!"
"It's good that you should say that..." The girls jumped slightly as the mysterious Sabrina walked passed them. "It seems like things are getting interesting at the house..."
She then somehow disappeared from their midst, she was just gone...
After the girls had gotten over the shock, they heard some cries and explosions at the house.
Holly got a terrified look on her face, she knew that this would happen if all the girls left... they have started fighting with each other!
She, and the rest of the girls, rushed towards the house, just in time to see a giant bird dive towards a powerful-looking green lizard.
"Aerial Ace!" The blond trainer screamed at his pokemon.
"Counter it with Leaf Blade." Came the calm and almost whispering tone in response.
The Staraptor dived towards Sceptile as it began to get surrounded by a white light, the light grew brighter the closer it came towards the lizard.
Sceptile's leaf on his right arm began to glow bright green as he smirked and slashed at the incoming bird.
The attacks were evenly matched, they struggled for a moment but everyone could see that Sceptile was the stronger one despite the type-disadvantage.
"Let's end this."
Sceptile's leaf on his left arm began to glow that same green color as he smashed it into the bird that was trying to push him back.
Staraptor cried in pain as he felt the leaf cut through his torso, he did as he was trained and broke the deadlock to fly off to a safe distance and await his master's orders.
"That's good!" Barry encouraged his pokemon, even thought he knew that it would end soon. "Let's blow them back with Whirlwind!"
The bird nodded and gained a little more altitude, then it started to flap its great wings causing a great wind which almost blew away the spectators (who still hadn't noticed the approaching group of females).
"Stand your ground!" Ash had raised his voice for the first time since it was hard to talk through the sound that the wind made... needless to say that most females in the vicinity were almost instantly attracted to the said deep voice as their hearts melted by the sound of it...
Sceptile braced himself as the winds hit him, over and over again, he had recently been hit by an Aerial Ace and a Wing Attack, so he was slightly fatigued.
Pikachu and Meowth had to cling to their master's legs as they almost got blown away by the wind. Ash himself had to hold onto his hat as the winds very nearly blew it off.
"It's time to end this, kid." Ash told his opponent on the other side of the field. "We get one final attack each."
"I agree... dude!" The spectators once again sweat-dropped at Barry's failure at a comeback. "Let's finish this!"
"Ladies first..." The smirk on Ash's grew bigger as he saw the vein throbbing on Barry's face.
"I'll show you!" He screamed and gestured towards his bird-pokemon. "Staraptor! Use Brave Bird! Full power! Make it count! Ta-"
"Sceptile, silence them with one last Giga Impact." Ash almost yawned, he had grown tired of Barry's childish antics for a long time ago. "Don't hold back on him anymore, it's time to finish this."
"'Hold back'!" Barry shrieked in surprise and shock. "What do you mean by that!"
The only visible emotion on the man's face was a big, taunting smirk that was directed towards the childish trainer.
Staraptor soared up into the air as the bird was surrounded by a blue aura. It then retracted its wings and began to dive towards its opponent at a high speed.
The lizard grunted slightly as he took off and started running. As he ran, a purple sphere of pure energy began to cover its whole body. He started running even faster towards the incoming bird and leapt to met it mid way.
"Prepare for impact..." Ash said softly so only his pokemon could hear him.
There was a big explosion and a blinding light that caused everyone close their eyes and ears. The smoke around the battlefield mixed with sand and stone caused a giant dust cloud such that the spectators couldn't even see the trainers on the edge of the battlefield.
Slowly, the smoke cleared enough to see the two trainers. One of them was really relaxed, almost bored, but the other one looked like he was about to faint out of anxiety.
The dust cloud cleared and allowed the spectators and trainers to see the aftermath of the explosion.
They could see a green lizard in a kneeling position, panting heavily... Ash raised his eyebrow, slightly impressed, as he saw the bird was still airborne.
"That's awesome, Staraptor!" Barry cheered in his high voice. "Now, let's use..."
His voice died as he saw his pokemon faint and fall towards the ground and land with a dull 'thud'.
Ash felt someone tug his pants and turned around. What he saw was Meowth standing there with a big smirk on his face as he held out his hat which had fallen off in the explosion.
"What's so funny?"
"Look up, boss." The smirk on the cat grew even wider as he saw his boss's expression.
"Who... is... that...?" May, Holly, Zoey and several other girls were left breathless as they took in the sight of the handsome trainer.
"That's the rude/Aura Guardian/man who saved us from the bikers!" Came several voices all at once.
"Yes." Sabrina appeared out of the blue again and looked towards the man with a mysterious smile. "That's also Brock's Best Man."
All the girls shot May death-glares, as though it was her fault that they didn't get paired up with the handsome man in front of them.
"Staraptor is unable to battle!" Brock decided to break the uncomfortable silence and help out a little. "Sceptile wins the match! Barry is out of usable pokemon! Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town wins the battle!"
He could hear several face-palms as a result of the last sentence, two were from pokemon and the other one was from the man with his Stetson hat back on his head.
"ASH!" Not only the did girls screamed it, most of the males just remembered that this was Ash in front of them, that they had forgotten it during the battle...
There was a minute of silence in which the tension just grew...
Then, Ash sighed, he tipped his hat towards the group of girls and walked away.
"Hold it right there!" Ash felt someone grab him by the arm, that person shouldn't have done that...
The person in question suddenly felt himself lifted up into the air and throw onto the floor, back first.
"Ouch!" The blond trainer cried out. "Don't try getting away! I'm going to make you pay with everything you've got!"
"I would like to see you try... shit-head." Ash whispered to him, but some of the spectators also heard it.
The raven haired trainer then picked up the pace and walked in a direction of his camp which only Brock knew about... the rodent and cat followed him closely, not wanting to be left alone with the confused mob.
There were mixed feelings and thoughts... but the one thing everyone had on their mind was: "What the hell just happened!"
End of chapter 10
Did I bash some characters too much?
Anyway, I'll try and clear some things up in the coming chapter!
It's better to review later than never and I'll be seeing you in the next chapter!
R&R!
