Lego: Hey guys welcome back! We're back again with chapter 12!

Nick: Mind explaining the 5-hour delay of posting?

Lego: He… he… he… No matter what I say will make you happy will it?

Nick: No.

Lego: Then as an apology I'll let you choose a punishment for me for posting late.

Nick: I'll make sure you regret that decision Lego.

Lego: Okay then. I hope you guys enjoy chapter 12!

pokespeech: "Hi."

telepathy: "Hi."

thoughts: 'Hi.'

announcer through a mic: "Hi."


"And the winner is… Misty Waterflower!" Yelled the announcer.

"We did it, Corsola!" Misty yelled.

"Congratulations on beating me yet again, Misty." said the man next to her.

"Thank you, Ross. I had a feeling you were racing and when I noticed your wailmer catching up to Corsola it confirmed my thoughts." Misty replied.

"Haha… I was hoping I would be you this time but I guess it's just meant to be," said Ross with a smile

They continued to talk as they got out of the canals, heading to where the racers were to go once they finished. They talkled to each other about what they have been up to since they had last seen each other.

"Sounds like you have been busy, Misty!" Ross exclaimed.

"No kidding this is the first break from the gym I have had in quite a while!" Misty agreed.

Alright everyone thank you for your time and thank you racers for coming to race in this year's Tour De Alto Mare!" said Lorenzo in his booming voice. "Now it's time for our winner to receive their prize. Please step forward, Misty Waterflower." Lorenzo called.

Misty walked forward to stand in front of Lorenzo with a big smile on her face. Lorenzo saw this and matched her smile happily. "Congratulations on winning this year's Tour De Alto Mare, Misty Waterflower. As your prize, I bestow upon you this glass medallion." Lorenzo said happily as he put the medallion around her neck.

"Thank you." said Misty with a slight bow.

"And this now reveals the end of this year's race! We hope all of you have a wonderful day!" said Lorenzo cheerily as everyone but the gang departed.

"Congratulations Misty!" Commended Bianca as everyone else agreed with her.

"Thank you, Bianca," replied Misty. She looked down and held up the medallion to the light to see its design. It had 3 similar looking creatures forming a circle within the circular medallion. "Hey, this one is different. It doesn't look like the last one I got," noted Misty as she pulled out her first medallion out of her bag to compare them. On her old one the same creatures that she recognized as lati on the new one were there forming a circle but there was only 2 of them instead of 3. "There's an extra Lati in this one Lorenzo," commented Misty hoping for an explanation.

"You're right Misty, there is an extra Lati in this year's medallion," confirmed Lorenzo. "When I made the last medallion the only known Lati were Latias and Latios but before I had made this year's medallion Ash and Brock had arrived, distracting me from making it. Then the incident where we found out Ash was a Latios occurred thus proving that their missing sibling was still alive. When I saw this I started making new plans for the medallion and ended up with using the original design except I had to shrink down the two lati so I could duplicate one of them and add a third to represent Ash." explained Lorenzo.

"Speaking of those three… Where are they?" Bianca questioned.

"Right here!" Yelled Ash as he and Latias ran up to them in their human guises. "Latios does not feel comfortable about being seen by others so he's still above you invisible," Ash explained when he saw the question about to rise.

"If he is uncomfortable then perhaps we should head back to the garden," Nick suggested. Everyone agreed with Bianca so they all headed back joking with each other along the way.


Back in the garden:

"Hey Ash, I just remembered the boat taking us back to Kanto will arrive in three days so just keep that in mind," Brock said gaining sad faces from half the group. "Sorry for being the harbinger of bad news. I just wanted to make you aware that we are on a timed schedule." Brock said trying to defend himself.

"Well, then I guess we should all go have some fun while we are here so see you guys later I'm going to spend some time with Latias and Latios," Ash said before transforming into his Latios form and shooting off to the swing where Latias and Latios we're resting. "Hey Latias, when will you start teaching us telepathy?" Ash asked.

"After Latios and I teach you to control your psychic powers completely. We can start training your psychic tomorrow. I would like to rest for now and play with you later." replied Latias.

"Okay! I'll see you later then!" said Ash as he sped off.

"He definitely is your brother… Always full of energy." Latios stated before falling asleep.

"I'll take that as a compliment." said Latias also falling asleep.


Across the garden at the swing:

'I can use this time to think over everything that has happened.' thought Ash as he sat on the swing. 'I think that I should be freaked out about being a Pokemon, but… something inside me is telling me that everything is normal and that there is no need to worry. I feel like I am finally who I really am,' Ash thought. He continued to think on the matter for a while when it hit him that most of his team didn't even know about it. "I should probably tell them now. Better late than never!" Ash said as he released Greninja, Infernape, Gliscor, Gabite, and Snivy. "Hey guys I almost forgot that I had to talk to you about some event that has happened recently and will change our future travels in some ways," said Ash earning confused looks from the five. "I was able to find out who I really am which turns out to be the legendary Pokemon, Latios," explained Ash.

"I will trust whatever you say, Ash." said Infernape happily.

"I can sense a change in you Ash. I just can't pinpoint it," commented Greninja.

"Funny joke, Ash." said Snivy disbelievingly.

"I don't know if I can believe it or not!" muttered Gliscor.

"That could explain the draconic smell that is faintly on you." Gabite said.

"It's nice to know at least 3 of you believe me," Ash said smiling.

"Wait… Did you just understand us?" Snivy asked, a bit unsettled.

"Yes I did, Snivy. As I told you I'm a Pokemon now." Ash replied.

"Prove it."

"Alright then," replied Ash as a white light covered him, blinding the 5 Pokemon. When the light disappeared, instead of Ash, there was a raven black colored Latios. "What did I tell you? Is this enough proof for you Snivy?" asked Ash.

"I guess so. Well, you definitely have surprised me." Snivy said as the other 4 agreed with her.

" I didn't just call you guys out to talk to you. It's training time!" yelled Ash as he started explaining what the other Pokemon were to do in their training.


3 hours later:

Ash had finished training his Pokemon and had returned them to rest half an hour ago and was now finished eating. He looked across the garden to see in the corner of his eye that Latias and Latios we're waking up from their nap. He walked over to them and sat down next to Latios. "So you said you wanted to spend time with me earlier, Latias. Here I am." said Ash as he petted Latios's neck causing him to smile happily.

"Yes, I did. I would like to go around the city with you to patrol for any danger," said Latias.

"You can stay here, sis. Since I am back you can stay here with Ash and play while I go out to scout out the city," said Latios.

"No, brother. You deserve a break, me and Ash are going to do it," said Latias.

"Alright then. Just don't get yourselves into any danger," said Latios knowing that he had no chance of getting Latias to change her mind.

"Thank you, brother! Let's go, Ash!" Latias said trying to pull Ash off the ground.

"Hold on let me leave a note with Latios that he can give to the others to let them know where we are going." Ash said grabbing a pen and paper from his bag. He sat down and wrote down on the paper: "Latias and I are going out to patrol the city. We will be back later. -Ash K.". When he finished he set it by Latios and transformed. "Are we going or what?" asked Ash as he hovered ten feet away.

"I'm coming, Ash," replied Latias. As she left she psychically picked up the pen off the ground and wrote under Ash's note: "Bianca, thanks for the talk.". Then shot off after Ash.

10 minutes after their departure Bianca walked up to Latios. "Do you know where the other two are right now?" she asked. She didn't expect him to give here the note Ash had written. After she read Ash's note and saw there was some hurried scribbling at the bottom she continued to read the messy writing. Once she finished reading she had a knowing smile on her face which made Latios give her a look of confusion. "Oh, it's nothing you should worry about. It's just something between me and your sister that we talked about earlier," she explained to Latios which earned her a worried look from Latios. "What's the matter? Latias and Ash are fine. You have nothing to worry about," said Bianca as Latios left.

'I for one don't believe that. Something is happening and I won't know what until I can get it out of her or Latias.' though Latios as he laid down on his favorite tree.


Over the city:

"Wow! Altomare is beautiful at night! Especially from this angle!" exclaimed Ash completely awestruck.

"Yes it is, Ash." agreed Latias, smiling. 'Come on Latias you can do this! Just tell him how you feel. Bianca told you that there's nothing to worry about so don't hold back,' thought Latias.

"Hey Ash?" said Latias to get his attention.

"Yeah what is it Latias?" Ash asked curiously.

"I didn't just bring you out here to look over the city. I had another reason to pull you out here," said Latias. 'Here it goes…' she thought.

"And what would that be Latias?" asked Ash.

"Promise me you won't freak out or do anything irrational," said Latias staring at him right in the eyes.

"Why would I do that Latias? What else did you bring me out here for?" He questioned.

"Just promise me, Ash."

"Fine, I promise I won't freak out or do anything irrational," Ash said earning a smile from Latias.

"Thank you. Ash, I brought you out here to tell you something," continued Latias.

"And what would that be?" Ash asked, completely confused on what was so important that she had to make him promise not to freak out from what she would say.

"Well… I…" Latias started "Damn it!" she yelled before she shot forward giving Ash a quick peck on the check before finishing, "I love you, Ash…".


Lego: Hehe… You have to wait till next Friday for Ash's reaction. Okay enough funny business for now. I have quite a few reviews to answer today and I would like to answer them.

Nick: Then let's do it!

Lego: Alright!

Priestess Yuki-himi-sama:

Lego: First off, WOW thats long! This is the most in depth comment I've had from a PM or review! I salute you!

Latios: Focus!

Lego: Alright, alright! You had 6 questions and 2 comments which I will answer in order. First question: I've noticed that I have my characters talk allot more then they should with barely any actions. I hope to tool around with it and get more action into every chapter and hopefully go back into the previous chapters and improve them in that way as well. As you could call me the narrator I'll try and fix that for ya *wink* Second question: You have a point there... The Soul Dew is made when a Lati dies so to make the Soul Dew but the difference is that the Soul Dew prevents Latios's spirit and aura from ascending into Arceus's realm while slowly draining the contained Lati's aura as a power source. What Ash did by giving the Soul Dew part of his aura which was used as an exchange for Latios's aura thus setting him free. While Latios believed he would be brought back life it should have just allowed Latios to ascend to Arceus's realm, instead Arceus secretly gave Latios a second chance at life by bringing back his body and putting Latios's soul and aura back in it. So you could say Latios's spirit and Aura was trapped while his physical body was erased but then brought back by arceus as a gift. The reason he could not bring back his, Latios, and Latias father is because while Latios did not know if his aura and spirit would be released to Arceus's realm instead of being revived their father did know this so he never attempted to get someone to free him because he wished to still be able to see his children grow up even if he could not physically be there for them. As well as before an attempt could ever been made by Ash the event's of the Pokemon: Heroes movie occured and when the DMA was stopped Annie grabbed Ash's father's drained Soul Dew causing it to shatter thus freeing their Father's soul which then ascended and is currently in Arceus's version of heaven. Thirdly, the reason Ash never really freaked out was that something deep inside of him is telling him that he is finally who he really is so he finds no reason to be freaking out. Here is a better real life example: If you have ever had a job that you thought you were meant to be, but when you find yourself getting a new job which you feel like this is the job you're truly meant to have instead of you're old one. As for his Delia after Lorenzo's explanation on how Ash had ended up in Delia's possession as an egg he still feels she is his mother after caring for him and he understands the reason for her not telling him about what he really is was for his own protection. I hope that was a good example for you. I'm sorry about that. The group that was after his egg will be coming back after when they find that he is actually alive after they had thought he was dead because when Ash's father took his egg to Kanto to hide Ash's egg from the group which spent years looking over every region looking for the egg to no avail. I didn't know that it was a problem so I'll try and make it easier for you guys to understand how the characters are feeling from now on and fix it in the previous chapter when I get the chance to thank you for bringing up that problem. Fourthly, This Ash we are talking about right? Ash is one of the most trusting people you could ever know! Ash gives his trust to most people unless he feels like they should not be trusted like every region's criminal organizations. Ash always trusts the people he meets until them are deemed otherwise so why would Alex and Nick be any different? Fifthly, To be a legendaries chosen means that said legendary has picked you by choice, prophecy, or fate to be their guardian and their responsibilities as their chosen is to do whatever the legendary may asks them to do when called upon as well as protecting the Legendaries by any means possible even if it could cost them their life. For example, Nick is Victini's chosen so he is responsible for protecting Victini from danger as well as following out its orders. If Victini asked him to go to Hoenn Nick would ask when he should go and after he is told when he would go to Hoenn as he was asked to. For Ash it was by the fate of a prophecy that he was chosen. I won't go into the mechanics of how Ash is a Pokemon but is still a legendaries Chosen because the fact it would take to long to explain it right now. I might later. Just make it clear I consider mythical Pokemon as legendary Pokemon as well and from most movies the location where Ash and co. find them usually believe in the legendaries existence one such case is Victini. As a gentle reminder there is only one of each of the main legendaries and most of the regular legendaries, there are a few exceptions like the Deoxys. When a legendary has a child for example Silver, the Lugia they are in time meant to replace their parent when they die. No, Lugia did not know that Ash is a Latios at the events of the Pokemon: The Power of One movie. So I guess yes, Pokemon can be chosen by legendaries to be their chosen one but they prefer to choose humans for the fact that they can not be captured in Pokeballs. Sixthly, to have a pure aura means you're aura is made up of pure light energy have never intended on hurting someone or something to the point of it ceasing to exist. You can still have a pure aura if you have gotten into a fight as long as the planned outcome was not to seriously injure the other or it was to defend someone else. If you continually make bad choices your aura will no longer be pure and the longer you continue making bad decisions the more you're aura will become tainted with dark energy. In a shorter explanation you start off with a pure aura but by doing criminal acts it begins to taint your aura and at a certain point when you're aura has been tainted enough you're aura is no longer considered pure. It will be considered a normal aura and if you continue doing criminal activities you're aura will become so tainted it will be identified as a corrupted aura. If you're aura does become tainted you can slowly heal the tainted areas of your aura by doing acts of justice and being nice to everyone although it will take many years to make your aura pure again after it is tainted enough to no longer be called pure. Theres you're six questions.

Nick: Slow down, Lego! Take a break to breath before continuing with the others!

Lego: No! I'm not done with this one yet! Now to answer the other 2 things you brought up, Priestess. It may not seem as if I am making the legendaries as important as they really are but trust me I am. I just have not had many areas where I would need to show their importance other than references to them. Yes you're right some legendaries are believed to be fake by people in the Pokemon world but in most cases the area around the legendaries home do believe in them and are shown to exist when Ash actually ends up meeting them in the movies and in the anime. Or are you talking about real people not from the Pokemon world but on the other side of the LED screen? It's quite alright! No need to apologize! I'm glad that you gave me all this feedback and I am looking forward to hearing if you have any more suggestions for me so lay em on meh! I will use the suggestions to help make the story run better, look better, and makes sense So I thank you for telling me we're I can improve! Oh I have no trouble believing that you have more questions about PotE so lay em on meh! Just don't send too many at the same time so that the author notes are SUPER long. Maybe cut it to 3 questions per chapter from ya unless you PM me them and I can answer them in chapter at my convenience.

Alex: Damn...That put Noah's rants to shame.

Tel: Ain't That the truth Alex.

Nick: Wow… Just wow… Take a break Lego I'll take the next two.

Gaming: YES! Please do take a break! I don't want to have to correct any more rants! Even if I technically just checked over this chapter in less than an hour with little difficulty but then again that wall of text is hard to check over because it's just a chunk of text with no spaces which is hard to read. So please no more rants! Pwease? -Espeon puppy face-

Lego: Okay. I'm wouldn't really call that a rant but more of a very long explanation for multiple questions.

Dracologistmaster:

Nick: Thanks! Well here you go!

Scribe0magic:

Nick: Well there's your answer, Gaming. It's 2.5 billion dollars. What wouldn't work on Lego?

Lego: Nothing that you need need to worry about…

Nick: Welp it looks like I'll need to check on Ash and Latias later. Great job, Scribe, you probably gave both of them a heart attack when they read them and figured out what they were. They are still very sensitive on that subject so let's try not to push them into it guys. Most have seen the non-cannon fodder AU you have created because Lego has opened up a one-way dimensional window to see what's happening in that AU seeing as he technically is the main writer for it and it still mostly follows the plotline of the main universe. Ya, we found the pool alright. Latias loves it and Lego does not even go in it because he has a slight distaste for swimming…

Lego: What have you done! He is one of the last people you should tell something like that about me unless it's given the green light by me!

Nick: Why?

Lego: Oh nevermind… you would remember the reason why, Nick. Speaking of which I'll take care of the rest of the reviews now.

Electron93:

Lego: I understand that some people don't like it but after watching the ENTIRE anime and movies in order from start to finish I felt like Ash was related to them somehow. Yes it does help that they are the only lati so they would have to pair up to survive. In the cases where there's only one of a legendary, that legendary can create its own child using its powers.

Gaming: Now that I can check over! Short and simple. Sort of.

Lego: There are all the questions and reviews! If have something to tell us PM me or leave a review for us to answer next Friday in chapter 13! Until then this is Legodood93 signing out!
