The Truth hurts~
The War Of Ketchup
Ca.10 ~ Present times

Ash opened his eyes to realize that everything that had happened had not been a dream, everything had happened. He had arrived in Hoenn, met May, burned her bike, fallen into the water, Charmeleon had evolved and he had slept over at May's parents. So much had happened in one day.

Ash sat up slowly in bed, so do not Pikachu would wake up. Ash looked around the room. he had not managed it yesterday.

The wallpaper was blue, as blue as the sea. On the floor there was a carpet with various patterns that were similar to a Pokémon. Ash had never seen that kind of Pokémon.

There were so many pieces of furniture inside the room, but it was a guest room so it's not so surprising. There was a bed and a dresser, hanging from the window was a red curtain.

Ash looked down at his sleeping buddy, Ash crept cautiously out of bed so as not to arouse Pikachu's "beauty" sleep. If you woke Pikachu, you got a shock; it was the first rule Ash learned.

May was combing her brown hair. She looked down at Torchic's Pokéball lying on the dresser that was lying next to her bed. May could not believe that everything that had happened yesterday was real. A day she had thought would be dull had become really exciting. She had met Ash, he was so brave ... Risked his own life for his Pikachu.

Once all the tangles in her hair was gone she put down his brush on the desk, she looked into the mirror that was in front of her to make sure that she looked good. When she had confirmed that she looked okay, she picked up her clothes from the closet.

It was a tight red t-shirt, a pair of dark blue tights that reached almost to her knees, a white skirt and some accessories.

Ash had just put on his clothes. he walked over to Pikachu and shook him lightly.

"Pikachu it's time to get up."

"Pika.."

"Looks like sleep horn woke up to the end." Ash kidding.

Pikachu raised his head to look around himself, everything was blurry but after a while he saw Ash standing in front of him.

"Pika pikapi." greeted Pikachu

"Good morning to you too. I think May's parents are waiting for us down there." Said Ash as he went to the office to take his hat, but Pikachu had second thoughts ..

Pikachu ran up to the office, took his cap in his mouth and ran out the door.

"HEY THAT'S MY HAT!" Ash shouted as he took off after the cap thief.

May had put on all her clothes without her gloves, his producers were white and dark blue.

"I wonder if anyone is awake."

May opened the door to go but then she looked back at her Pokéball, she sighed and picked it up before she went into the kitchen.

Down in the kitchen sat Norman and read in a newspaper while Caroline sat next to him and drank a cup of tea.

May sat down in front of her parents, neither of them seemed to notice that she was there. May "coughed" to get their attention and it was successful; both looked at their daughter.

"Good morning, darling, I did not hear you." Caroline said with a warm smile.

"That's OK. Do you know if anyone else is awake?"

"When I think about it-"

"HEY THAT'S MY HAT!" Shouted a voice upstairs.

"Looks like Ash has awakened ... "

Ash ran after Pikachu through the hallway, when suddenly Pikachu jumped and disappeared .. Ash were unable to stop. He realized he ran towards the stairs.

Norman, Caroline and May waited for Ash to come down but then saw them that Pikachu jumped down the stairs. Pikachu had Ash's hat in his mouth.

"NO NO!"

Ash fell down the stairs and ended up on the floor in front of a laughing Pikachu, Norman, Caroline and May.

Ash heard laughter and turned his head towards the kitchen and saw Norman, Caroline and May, laughing at him ..

Ash stood up and walked to the dining table where May tried as best to look like she had not laughed.

Pikachu sat next to Ash and gave the hat to Ash. Ash smiled and put it on his head.

"So Ash .. What are you doing in Hoenn?" Norman asked suspiciously.

Ash looked down at the table, Pikachu saw that Norman had made Ash sorry so he gave Norman the exact same look that he had given Gary.

"Dad, it's not that important .."

"Not if he refuses to tell us so we throw him out!"

"NORMAN!"

Ash looked up at them. May, Caroline and Norman could see that he was at the verge of crying.

"So you want to know why I'm in Hoenn?" Ash asked as he wiped away a tear from his face with his sleeve.

"Yes .. It feels suspicious to have someone in the house who does not say why he is in Hoenn."

"I have escaped from my uncle." Said Ash. he condensed everything else otherwise he would talk for hours.

"You do not think he's worried?" Asked Caroline.

Ash smiled and shook his head.

"I do not care if he misses me. He is the worst man I've ever met!"

"And what has he done that is so terrible?" Asked Norman more suspicious

Pikachu growled at Norman, Norman noticed it and backed away from Ash.

Ash was rescued from Norman's question when Max came down.

"Hey guys what-" Max saw Pikachu. He got stars in his eyes and ran up to Ash.

"Is that a Pikachu?! It's so cool!"

"Yes it's a Pikachu but he is busy .."

Max looked at Pikachu, how was he busy? He was just eating ketchup..

Max thought Ash was just joking with him. Max smiled. He would not let Ash win. Max stretched his hand towards Pikachu.

Ash saw what Max would do.

"No, do not touch Pikachu or his ketchup before he has finished eating!"

"What would be the worst that could happen?" asked Max

Ash gave up and walked a few steps away from the table. May, Caroline and Norman noticed how Ash went ifrn Pikachu so they did the same thing.

Max tried to pull off the ketchup bottle from Pikachu's grip, Pikachu immediately began to whine.

"Ehm ... Drop the bottle .." Proposed Ash

Pikachu stopped suddenly whining, everybody (without Ash) looked in shock.

"And now it comes .." Ash whispered to himself. May heard him and wondered what he meant.

Max froze when he saw the sparks came from Pikachu's cheeks, Max knew exactly what it meant ..

"Pikaaa….!"

"CHUUUUUUUUUU!"

Pikachu's Thunderbolt did that Max had to drop the bottle, immediately when Max dropped the bottle stopped Pikachu with his Thunderbolt.

Pikachu looked horrified at the ketchup bottle, it was burned and broken. Pikachu began to cry and ran over to Ash. He took out the bottle in front of Ash which meant "fix it." Ash sighed.

"Pikachu is destroyed. But if you want we can buy some more later." Ash tried to comfort Pikachu. Pikachu nodded sadly.

Norman had gone to his son to help him. Norman gave Ash a glare. It was as if Norman accused Ash for everything bad that happened.

"What are you for a trainer that lets your Pokemon attack humans?"

"I tried to warn him .."

Norman helped Max back on the chair then he walked over to Ash. May, Caroline and Max wondered what he would do.

Norman grabbed Ash's wrist. Ash struggled to get out of his grip. May, Max and Caroline gasped.

Norman forced Ash out the door, Pikachu did not dare attack Norman while he was with Ash.

"Are you throwing me out?" Asked Ash shocked

"Yes."

"But .. Brock and Gary?"

"They may be looking for you when they have woken up, goodbye." then he closed the door and went back into the kitchen.

In the kitchen stood his angry wife and his two confused children and glared at him.

"What? He and his Pikachu was a danger, look what he did to Max."

"But Dad, he tried to warn me .. He said several times to me to wait until Pikachu had finished eating." explained Max

"Norman why are you against that boy so much?" Demanded his wife

"I just do not like him... There's nothing wrong with that."

"You do not like him for some reason, what is it?"

" Okay I do not like him because I'm scared that he'll take away my little girl from me! " confessed Norman

All gasped.

"Norman our children have to grow up sometime and if there was anything between Ash and May as well that good? Ash seems like a good guy, do not you think?"

"MOM!"

"Okay .. I'll tell him that he is welcome back."

Norman went to the door, opened it but .. empty .. No Ash .. No Pikachu .. Did Ash really go away?

"ASH! PLEASE CAME BACK!" Cried May, who had run to the door.

Silence

May ran past his father and ran out, out to find Ash. Norman was about to run after May when Caroline stopped him.

"You can not stop me. I need to find my daughter."

"I will not stop you, me and Max with you." Declared his wife smilingly

Norman smiled at his family then ran out to find May, Ash and Pikachu.

Meanwhile Ash and Pikachu went to the port. There was not a single person or Pokémon on the whole port, or at least that was what they thought.

Out on the sea drove a boat, on the boat sat Cassidy and Butch.

"Sir how do we find the boy? And if we find him, his annoying Pikachu was there to protect him."

"Take out Pikachu first then you take the boy. When you have him in your hands keep track of him, do not leave him for a second. Understand?"

"YES SIR!"

May ran as fast as she could, each could have them go? She did not even know where she was going to start looking .. Would he go to town? Would he go into the woods? She had no idea.

Caroline, Norman and Max ran to find May, but they had the same problem she had, where would they look?

Ash and Pikachu had sat at the edge of the bridge, Pikachu looked sadly at Ash. If Pikachu hadn't shocked Norman's son, Ash would be indoors. Pikachu felt like he had betrayed Ash. Pikachu's ears hung low down.

Ash noticed how sad and guilty Pikachu felt,.Ash sighed and moved the little yellow Pokemon onto his knee. Ash patted Pikachu's head to calm down Pikachu. Pikachu looked up into Ash's loving eyes.

"I do not understand .. How could anyone want to hurt Ash? He has a pure heart. Why would that horrible man want him?"

"Come on, Pikachu, we should move to another city. We have already stayed here for a long time." Sighed Ash. Pikachu jumped off Ash's lap and nodded sadly.

Cassidy and Butch had just arrived in the harbor when they heard something. It was a voice they recognized. Cassidy and Butch smiled. Their job would soon be finished.

Cassidy and Butch looked up at a dock and saw the boy and his little Pikachu.

"Come on, Pikachu, we should move to another city. We have already stayed here for a long time."

Cassidy smiled maliciously, so did Butch also.

"The only way you'll go is, back to Team Rocket's base to meet Giovanni." Whispered Cassidy.

Ash: So Norman threw me out? Great, I'm an orphan and now I have nowhere to stay! I thought you said you liked me, why must my life be so hard?
