(A/N) Hey everybody! Sorry it's been awhile since I've updated this but I'm finally back. Hopefully you like it so far because it's going to get better. Now here's Chapter 10!!!

Chapter 10

"Hey wait for us!" Ash yelled at the bus as it was getting ready to depart. Ash and Pikachu ran towards the bus as fast as they could, but they were too late. "Oh man, we missed it," said a disappointed Ash.

"I guess we have to go on foot Pikachu." "Cha (Well this wouldn't have happened if you'd remembered to change your underwear)." "Whatever Pikachu. Huh?"

Ash and Pikachu saw a beautiful black mustang honk and stop right next to them. The driver lowered the window of the vehicle, revealing the driver and the passenger.

"Gary? Professor Oak?"

"Why hello there Ash," said the famous Professor Oak, "it's really good to see you again."

"Hi there Ash. I see you still haven't got your license yet," said Gary.

"Yeah so," replied a jealous Ash.

"C'mon Ash. A Pokemon Master needs to have a driver's license." Ash glared angrily at Gary, until he saw another familiar friend of his in the back seat.

"Tracey, is that you?"

Tracey lowered his window, "Why hi Ash. Long time no see huh?"

"Yeah," answered Ash.

"Anyway, where are you headed to Ash?"

"I was going to take the bus to Pewter City, but I just missed it."

"Well hop on Ash, I'd be glad to take you to Pewter City," answered Gary.

"Thanks," replied Ash as he and Pikachu jumped in the back seat. Gary turned on the motor as they were on there way towards Pewter City.

Meanwhile…

"Um Sora, where are we going again?" asked Riku.

"Radiant Garden," answered Sora.

"What for?" asked Goofy.

"To get some supplies and meet Leon and the gang."

"Yay, we get to see Yuffie!" yelled Donald. Everyone stared at Donald. "…and Leon too."

Sora rolled his eyes, "Whatever."

"Hey look!" yelled Goofy, "We're here!"

"Oh finally," yelled Donald.

Sora, who was driving, parked the gummi ship on some random area on Radiant Garden. (A/N Seriously, where the heck do they park?)

Sora and the gang jumped out of the gummi ship and around the place. It was beautiful, no heartless or nobodies in sight.

"Wow it's beautiful here. Where do you think Leon is?" asked Sora.

"Hey, maybe they're at Merlin's. That's where they were last time we came here."

"You may be right Goofy," said Sora, "let's check it out." With that, Sora and the gang ran towards Merlin's place. When they got there, Donald rapidly knocked on the door.

"Hey Yuffie open up! It's me, Donald!" The gang glared at Donald again. "…and Sora, Riku, and Goofy are here too."

Sora rolled his eyes again, "Donald, has anyone ever told you how weird you are?"

"Yes. I…Hey what do you mean by that?"

"Oh nothing," replied Sora.

Just then, someone had opened the door. Sora and the two Disney characters knew who it was.

"It's Cid!" yelled Donald.

"Hey guys, how's it going?"

"Hi Cid, long time no see huh?" asked Sora.

"Yeah, you're right. Hey is that Riku right there?"

"Yes, I'm Riku. I've heard nice things about you guys from Sora."

"Oh you did huh? How about you guys come in for awhile. I bet Leon and Yuffie would be glad to see you."

"Especially me," gloated Donald. The gang shook their head as they walked into the house.

"Hey it's Sora and the gang!" yelled Yuffie as she ran towards them.

"I'm right here Yuffie!" yelled Donald as he threw his arms up. But Yuffie just ran right past him as Donald put his head down.

"So, you have returned," said Leon, who was sitting on a chair. Sora nodded his head.

"Of course we've returned. I told you we would see you guys again."

"Why if it isn't the Keybearer," said a man with blonde, spiky hair.

"Cloud, you're back!" yelled Sora. Cloud, who was standing at the corner of the room, nodded.

"So why did you come this time Sora? There hasn't been any Heartless or Nobodies here," said Cid.

"Well, we need supplies and a little help."

"Help with what?" asked Cid.

"We need help getting to our next destination."

"Where're you heading?" asked Cloud.

"Well, that's why we're here. We don't know where we're going. All I know is that it's is that it's the place that Xehanort came from."

"XEHANORT?!" asked Leon and the gang.

"Yeah," answered Sora.

"Sora, Xehanort is dead."

"Not anymore. The king told me that Maleficent has brought Xehanort back to life. And now he had Kairi with him as hostage too. The only clue the king gave me was that Xehanort went back to the world he came from to bring back something that began with BM."

Yuffie shook her head, "No, this can't be happening again."

"Again? You mean this has happened before?" asked Sora.

"Yeah, don't you remember Sora?" asked Leon. Sora shook his head.

"It seems it was too far back for Sora to remember Leon," said Cloud.

"You may be right," replied Leon, "Sora, Xehanort actually comes from two places. His old kingdom here at Radiant Garden. And…the world of Pokemon."

"Pokemon?" asked Sora and the gang.

"Wait," said Riku, "how could Xehanort come from two places?"

"Because, Xehanort's heartless was the king of Radiant Garden. But before that, Xehanort himself was from the pokemon world."

"But it still doesn't make sense," said Sora.

"Well Sora, it's exactly the same thing with you and A, oops I've said too much."

"Me and who?"

Leon looked the gang wondering what to tell Sora. They nodded in approval.

"The two chosen ones Sora," answered Leon.

"The two chosen one?" asked Riku.

"Yes," said Yuffie, "Sora is one of the chosen ones."

"Me? Why me? And who's the other chosen one?"

"No time to explain Sora, you need to get to the Pokemon world fast."

"Okay, but how do we get there?" asked Sora.

"I don't know, but I think Merlin knows," answered Leon. Leon whistled with his fingers on his lips. With that, Merlin poofed into the room.

"My, can't a wizard get 5 minutes of…oh Sora, you're here."

"Sorry Merlin but we have to cut to the chase. How do get to the Pokemon world?"

"Pokemon world? Well Sora, I might have something that could help you."

Merlin walked over to the giant bag that could fit anything, no matter what size it is.

"Let's see, um…oh here we go." Merlin pulled out two things. One was a map and the other seemed to be a little microchip.

"What's that?" asked Goofy, who was pointing at the chip.

"Well Goofy, since the Pokemon world is so far away, this chip would make it easier on your engine to travel far distances."

"I'll go set it up right now," said Cid as he walked toward the gummi ship.

"Thanks Cid. And thank you all for the help."

"No problem," said Leon, "But be careful Sora."

"I will, I will. Don't you guys worry."

"Bye Yuffie," said Donald.

"Um, bye Donald?" said Yuffie.

"C'mon Donald," said Goofy as he pulled Donald by the beak.

With that, Sora and the gang walked towards the gummi ship. When they got there, Cid seemed to be finished already.

"Alright, the chip is set and ready to go," said Cid.

"Thanks Cid. C'mon guys let's go," said Sora.

Sora and the gang jumped in the gummi ship as Sora lifted the gummi ship off the ground. They waved goodbye to Leon and the gang as they flew off, to the Pokemon world.

Meanwhile…

"So Ash, why are you heading to Pewter city?" asked Tracey.

"Well, I was actually going to Cerulean City to see Misty. But I wanted to bring Brock along too, just like the old days."

"So you're going to visit your old girlfriend huh?" asked Gary.

"Misty? Misty's not my girlfriend Gary."

"Whatever," replied Gary.

Tracey giggled, but Ash didn't pay attention to it. Tracey always figured that Ash and Misty liked each other, but he knew they weren't old enough to admit it. But that was five years ago when he was traveling with them. Who knows, maybe things have changed. Maybe Ash likes that May girl. Or does he still like Misty?

"Well, I'm glad we caught you Ash," said Professor Oak.

"How come?"

"This." Professor Oak pulled out a pokeball out of his pocket.

"A pokeball? Why are giving me a pokeball Professor Oak?" asked Ash.

"Ash, you don't know what this is, do you?" asked Professor Oak. Ash shook his head. "Ash, this is the greatest pokeball ever created. It's called the Masterball. I want you to keep it."

"That's cool and everything Professor Oak but, how is it the greatest pokeball ever created?"

"Ah, I was getting there Ash. You see Ash; the Masterball has been worked on and tested for centuries. We researchers have finally concluded that the Masterball could catch any pokemon without fail."

"Wow, that's amazing Professor Oak. Thank you."

"It's my pleasure Ash. You deserve it after finally becoming a Pokemon Master. Something my grandson…"

"Yeah gramps I know," replied Gary before Professor Oak could finish.

"Hey look Ash, we're in Pewter City."

Ash looked at the billboard that read "PEWTER CITY: NEXT EXIT".

"So you want me to drop you off at the gym I suppose," said Gary.

"Yeah Gary. Oh, and thanks for the ride."

"No problem."

Gary parked at the gym's parking lot as Ash got out of the car.

"Alright guys, see ya lat…"

"Ash wait!" yelled Gary as he too got out of the black mustang.

Ash stopped at the sound of Gary's voice.

"Ash, I know it's kinda late, but I wanted to congratulate you on winning the pokemon league. I'm sorry I didn't congratulate you before, but I was so ashamed of myself since I came so close to winning. I just wanted to say that the better man won that day."

Ash was surprised. That was the nicest thing that Gary has ever said to him. Why was Gary being so nice? Maybe after all those years Gary has finally matured. Well, so has Ash.

"Thanks Gary. Yeah I might've won at the pokemon league, but that still doesn't mean that I'm a better trainer than you are. Just keep trying and you'll be a Pokemon Master someday too."

Ash offered out his hand for a hand shake as Gary gladly accepted it.

"Well, it's good to see our two top trainers from Pallet Town get along," said Professor Oak, who seemed to get out of the car, along with Tracey.

"Yeah," said Gary, "Hey Ash, how about we have a rematch."

"A rematch? Why?"

"Because I know I could beat you Ash. And the whole world knows that you could beat me. So how about it Ash? Ash vs. Gary II. For the right to be called, the Pokemon Master."

"You know what Gary…you're on."

"Wow, I think that's a splendid idea. I'll call the media and let them know about this," said Professor Oak.

"So there you have it Ash. This time, I'll win," said a confident Gary.

"Keep dreaming Gary, I beat you once, and I could beat you again. Isn't that right Pikachu?"

"Pika! (You bet!)"

"How about we have the battle tomorrow, at the gym. Let's say 8:00" said Tracey.

"Fine by me, smell ya later Ash," said Gary as he got back in the mustang.

Tracey sighed, "Just when you think they were about to get along, they go out and start another battle."

"I'll be fine Tracey," said Ash.

"C'mon Tracey," Professor Oak, "Ash's Muk could be destroying the lab right now. Good bye now Ash."

"Bye guys," replied Ash, as the black mustang drove away.

"C'mon Pikachu, let's go see Brock." With that said, Ash and Pikachu walked towards the entrance.

Meanwhile…

"Look, there he is Max," said May while she was looking out her binoculars. May and Max were hiding in the Viridian Forest right outside Pewter City. They were spying on Ash if you couldn't tell already.

"So why are we spying on Ash again?" asked Max.

"To make sure he doesn't get with Misty," replied May.

"I know that," said Max, "but why don't we want them to get together?"

"Because Max, you saw his face when Misty was mentioned."

"I knew it May"

"Knew what?"

"You like Ash don't you?"

"Well he he," replied May as she put her hand behind her head, "I guess I do."

"Wow that's cool!" replied Max.

"Yeah. Wait, why is it cool to you?"

"Because if you and Ash get married, Ash would be my brother-in-law."

"Married? Yeah I like him Max but, isn't that going a little too far?"

"Oh, I guess you're right."

May saw how disappointed Max was by that statement.

"Well in order to get him to like me Max, we have make sure he doesn't get with Misty first."

"Ha ha ha, that's the spirit young one," said another voice. May and Max turned around to see an old woman and giant dog-looking guy.

"Who are you?" asked May.

"Aw, listen to the puppy-love Maleficent," said Pete.

"What? You talk?"

"Why, just call me Pete."

"And who are you?" asked Max.

"Why, I'm the all powerful Maleficent. I'm what you call, a witch. We come from a different galaxy."

"What are you doing here?" asked Max.

"We're looking for the other chosen one," answered Pete.

"Chosen One?" asked May.

"Yes, we need him on our side. He and Sora are the only ones that can defeat Xehanort."

"Sora? Xehanort?" asked May and Max simultaneously.

"Yes, Sora is that annoying brat with the keyblade. While Xehanort is the all powerful human being who could rule the galaxy."

"Who's the other chosen one you're talking about?" asked May.

"Well let's see eh, his name is…Ash," answered Pete.

"Ash!" yelled May and Max simultaneously again.

"Yes, Ash is the other chosen one," answered Maleficent.

"But why Ash? He's just an ordinary boy."

"Because Ash has the power of darkness in him. With it, we could destroy Sora…cough cough, I mean Xehanort and save the galaxy," answered Pete.

"So why are you telling us all this?" asked May.

"Well first off, you're the one asking all the questions. Two, we think you could help us some how."

"Really? How?" asked Max.

"We don't need your help," replied Maleficent as Max was disappointed again. "But the girl, she could help us."

May had a confused look on her face as she pointed to herself.

"Me?"

"No Oprah, of course you!" answered Pete.

"Now tell me, how strong is your love for Ash?" asked Maleficent.

"Love Ash? Look, I have a crush on Ash, but I don't love him. That's Misty's job."

"Misty?" questioned the two villains.

"Yeah, she's the one that Ash likes…I think. He seems to get excited every time we mention her and…"

Maleficent cut her off with an evil laugh. Pete, seeing Maleficent laughing, started to join in too. Maleficent stopped laughing as she gave Pete an evil glare.

"Shut up Pete!" she yelled as Pete put his head down. "Anyway, you're saying that Ash loves this…Misty."

"Well, he hasn't really said it out loud. But I think it's pretty obvious that he does."

"Yes! Pete, our plan is perfect. May dear, come with us."

"Where?"

"To the darkness."
