Hey there, sorry this took so long to update but the internet's been down for a while where I live. So here's the next chapter and please let me know what you think.


CH 12 : An old friend

Ash and May were sitting on one of Mt. Moon's peaks overlooking the forest below. "It's so beautiful" May said. "It is nice to come up here and just gaze at the view" Ash said. May was resting her head against Ash's shoulders.

Pikachu was sitting on the ground next to May's Blaziken. Ash and May had only taken their first pokemon with them to Mt. Moon. "Alright wanna get back to training?" Ash said. "Alright let's go" May said. They got up and called their pokemon over to them.

Pikachu was standing in front of Ash and Blaziken in front of May. "Blaziken firespin" May said. "Pikachu dodge it" Ash said. Blaziken unleashed a spinning burst of fire towards pikachu, but pikachu was so fast that the firespin didn't land anywhere near him.

"Blaziken again" May said. One after another Blaziken unleashed firespins at pikachu hoping one would hit its mark. Eventually one firespin surrounded pikachu in fire. "Yes nice shot blaziken" May said. "Pikachu use thunderbolt" Ash said. "Pikachu!" Pikachu said as he unleashed a massive burst of electricity that forced the fire away from him.

"Pikachu use thunderbolt" Ash said. "Dodge it" May said. Blaziken jumped up , narrowly avoiding the thunderbolt. "Quick attack" Ash said. Pikachu sprinted forward with unbelievable speed and hit blaziken, knocking him down.

Blaziken got up and shook off some dirt that was on his back. "Alright Blaziken is improving" Ash said. "Thanks" May said. Ash was about to give Pikachu another command when he heard something. It sounded like soft footsteps and heavy panting. "What's that?" Ash said. He turned over to his left and saw a clefairy covered in claw and bite marks limping towards them. "Clefairy" It said in pain and then fell to the ground.

"Oh no!" May said. The 4 rushed over to the clefairy and got it onto its back. Ash took a deep breath and began using his aura to heal it. "Who or what would do this to a clefairy?" May said. "I don't know, but look at these wounds. Bitemarks, clawmarks , this was something feral" Ash said.

"Pika" Pikachu said. "Clefairy" Clefairy said to pikachu. "Pika!" Pikachu said sounding very scared. "What did this Pikachu?" Ash said. Pikachu and Ash connected with aura and Ash felt Pikachu's thoughts and realized what the clefairy said to him.

"This is bad" Ash said. "What is it?" May said. "May we need to get out of here now" Ash said. "What is going on Ash?" May said. "No time to explain" Ash said as he picked up the clefairy. Ash lead the way down the mountain as quickly as they could. As they got further down the mountain they noticed that a number of wild pokemon were also on the run. Zubat, geodude, and clefairy were rushing out of the caves as quickly as they could.

A pair of geodude both rushed down a path and accidentally knocked a few large rocks into the path blocking Ash and the other's way. "Oh great now what?" May said. "We have no choice we have to go through the mountain" Ash said.

"Oh great" May said. Blaziken went in first and breathed a little bit of fire into his hands to light up their path. Ash was using aura vision to see what was around him. As they walked through the mountain they came across more fleeing pokemon and some wounded ones. Ash saw a zubat with part of its left-wing with a large piece of skin torn off with a bite mark around it.

"Oh that poor zubat" May said. May picked it up and cradled it in her arms. "Ash I'm getting scared" May said. Ash grit his teeth as he felt his suspicions confirmed, dark aura was around them. May and Ash started to hear lots of footsteps around them.

"There's something here" Ash said. When the footsteps got closer they heard strange sounds. It sounded like small growls, the clefairy in Ash's arms started to shake and bury its face into Ash's arms. "What is that?" May said. Ash and the others turned to see something dark staning in front of them. Blaziken moved his hand out to light up the area in front of them and revealed what was in front of them.

Standing there was a clefairy. The clefairy was not pink like the one in Ash's arms, it had black skin , red eyes , and an unsavoury black cloudy aura around it. "Ash is that thing what I think it is?" May said. "Yes it's possesed by dark aura , just like the charizards and Lucario" Ash said.

The clefairy snarled then ran at them with bad intentions. "Pikachu thunderbolt" Ash said. Pikachu came forward and blasted the clefairy with electricity, hurling the dark clefairy back. Ash was going to see if he could heal it when he heard more footsteps.

Before they knew it another 5 dark clefairy had surrounded them. When the dark pokemon sprinted towards them May shouted out, "Blaziken use firespin". Blaziken unleashed a spinning jet of fire that encircled three of the clefairy. "Pikachu use quick attack" Ash said.

Pikachu sprinted forward and hit the other two clefairy before they knew what got them. "Come on I can feel more coming" Ash said. Ash and May rushed through the mountain as more wild pokemon tried to get out of the mountain.

When they got to the mid section of the mountain interior they saw another 3 dark clefairy all using scratch and bite on a paras on the ground. "Oh no, Blaziken use furry swipes" May said. Blaziken rushed over and slashed the 3 dark clefairy very quickly knocking them back away from paras. May took out a superpotion and sprayed the paras with it. The cuts and bite marks started to fade away as the super potion took effect.

The paras got up and quickly moved away. When May got up she felt the ground shake a little. "Did you feel that?" May said. "There's something big nearby" Ash said. "Pika!" Pikachu said. They all turned to where he was facing and saw a massive rock get cut into two pieces. Standing on the other side of the rocks was a massive Kabutops with glowing red eyes and black aura around him.

"You've got to be kidding me" May said. The Kabutops roared and unleashed a powerful hydro pump at Blaziken. "Blaziken move!" May said. Blaziken jumped back avoiding the hydro pump. "Pikachu quick use iron tail" Ash said. Pikachu sprinted toward the massive kabutops. The kabutops used hydro pump but missed his mark. When Pikachu got close enough Kabutops slashed forward with his claws but Pikachu jumped up above Kabutops's claws and bashed him across the face.

The dark kabutops stumbled backwards trying to stay on his feet. "Thunder" Ash said. Pikachu unleashed a massive blast of electricity into the Kabutops knocking it out. Ash considered going to heal if of its dark aura when he heard more footsteps behind him. May and Blaziken turned to see 7 more dark clefairy running at them.

"Blaziken use flamethrower" May said. Blaziken opened his mouth and unleashed a jet of fire at the dark clefairy, forcing them back. "Run!" Ash said. Ash and the others hurried through the mountain trying to get out. When they got back towards the ground area of the mountain. a group of Zubat were trying to get away from a group of 3 dark clefairy and a dark clefable. "Blaziken quick use firespin" May said.

Blaziken jumped up and surrounded the 3 dark clefairy in fire. He landed in front of the dark clefable. As the dark clefable tried to claw him May said "Blaze kick". Blaziken delivered a powerful kick that hurled the dark clefable back into the wall.

"Let's go" Ash said. The group finnaly managed to make it out of Mt. Moon. May and Ash tried to catch their breath when May said "That was crazy". Ash suddenly felt more dark aura around him. "May we're not out of the woods yet" Ash said. Before they knew what happend over a dozen dark clefairy and 4 dark clefable rushed out of the mountain and surrounded them.

One by one the dark clefairy rushed at them only to be knocked out by Pikachu's attacks. Two of the clefable began moving towards them when Blaziken unleashed a fireblast hurling the two back. "There are to many" May said. We can do this we just need to" Ash started when he heard the ground shake. The thumping got louder and louder until Ash turned and saw another massive dark Kabutops standing right behind him and May.

The dark Kabutops brought up his claws to slash them when he was hit with a focus punch and knocked back. "What the?" Ash said when he saw a massive Tyranitar standing between him and the Kabutops. The tyranitar roared as the Kabutops got back up.

"A Tyranitar?" May said. Pikachu looked closer at the Tyranitar and said "Pika". The Tyranitar roared again and Pikachu smiled as he realized who it was. Ash noticed there was something familair about this Tyranitar and its aura, as if he had met it before but where.

The remaining dark clefairy and clefable came rushing at the Tyranitar. Tyranitar smashed his left foot into the ground creating a small earthquake. The earthquake knocked out all of the dark clefairy and clefable. The dark Kabutops opened his mouth and unleashed a powerful hydro pump at Tyranitar.

Tyranitar opened his mouth and unleashed a massive hyperbeam that tore through the hydro pump and hit the dark kabutops. The kabutops was hurled back into the side of the mountain and knocked out. Once he saw the danger had passed the Tyranitar turned back towards Ash and May.

The Tyranitar smiled and let out a happy growl as he picked up Ash and licked across his face. "It's good to see you too" Ash said. "Ash you know this Tyranitar?" May said. "Back when I was in Johto I found and hatched a pokemon egg" Ash said. May looked back at the Tyranitar and said "So you hatched him when he was a lavitar?" May said.

"Yup five years ago" Ash said. "But wait if you hatched him why didn't you keep him?" May said. "I did want to but we found his mother" Ash said. "I guess he's all grown up now" May said.

"You've been looking for me for a while haven't you" Ash said. Tyranitar nodded and set Ash down. "Do you think he want's you to catch him?" May said. "I think so" Ash said. He took out a pokeball and touched it on Tyranitar's head.

Tyranitar went inside and the pokeball shook for a minute before stopping. "Alright I've got a Tyranitar" Ash said. Ash and May got back to Pewter city and gave the wounded wild pokemon to nurse Joy.

Ash also used the phone to contact Daniel. Daniel was preparing to leave when his phone rang. "Hello" He said, "Daniel It's me Ash. Look I know you have important work to do but I need to tell you that I was attacked at Mt. Moon by more pokemon possessed by Dark aura" Ash said. "What!?" Daniel said. "I wanted to try to heal them but there were too many" Ash said.

Daniel put his hand on his forehead and took a deep breath. "Alright just stay away from there I'll take care of it" Daniel said. He hung up the phone and paced around for a minute. He knew he had to do something about the pokemon at Mt. Moon, but he also knew investigating the ruins was more important.

He got on the phone again and typed in a clearance code. Miles away at Tyron Air base located north of Pewter city Captain Ryan Todd was in his office. Captain Todd was a year older than Daniel, had tanned skin, blue eyes, blonde hair and broad shoulders.

He heard his phone ring and answered it. "Captain Todd how can I help you" He said. "Ryan it's me Daniel" Daniel said. "Daniel I'm on duty right now this better be important" Ryan said. "It is, just listen to me we have a serious situation at Mt. Moon. Pokemon possessed by Dark aura are crawling all over the mountain" Daniel said.

"What!" Ryan said. "Ryan listen to me, my apprentice isn't ready to heal all of those pokemon and I've got a very important thing to do right now so if you could take care of it I'd be real appreciative" Daniel said. "Look Daniel I can't just leave the base and" Ryan started. "So tell your wing commander the situation, high command understood the threat when it happened last time. Hell they even gave me an honorable discharge so I could take care of it" Daniel said.

"Alright alright I'll tell General Fores, hell he may even let me take a squadron down there to secure the area" Ryan said. "Alright thanks Ryan" Daniel said before hanging up. Ryan put the phone down and took a deep breath. Daniel and Ryan were close friends when they had attended the Kanto Air Force Academy.

Both of them were masters of aura , but their friendship had somewhat faded since Daniel decided not to return to the air force. Captain Todd got up and walked to the office of the base commander, brigadier General Marcus Fores.

Ryan knocked once on the door and heard General Fores say "Enter". Ryan walked in and approached the general. When he was just before the desk he stopped and rendered a salute. "General Fores, Captain Todd here to make a request sir" Ryan said.

General Fores looked up and returned his salute. When the general lowered his salute Ryan lowered his and took a seat. "A request captain , just out of the bloom" General Fores said. "Yes sir I just received work from Daniel Rain that a number of pokemon possessed by dark aura were sighted near Mt. Moon" Ryan said.

"Hm, some of our men did report that the Pewter city Pokemon center told them about patients who suffered injuries from dark pokemon" General Fores said. "Exactly sir" Ryan said. "Alright captain take a squadron down there and secure a perimeter around Mt. Moon. Then do your aura magic and take care of those dark pokemon" General Fores said. "Yes sir, will that be all sir" Ryan said.

"That will be all" General Fores said. Ryan got up and saluted the general saying "Good afternoon sir". General Fores raised a salute and said "Good afternoon captain".

Later that day Ash and May were back in Pallet town with Tyranitar in Profesor Oak's pens. "Well guys say hello to the new member of the family" Ash said to some of his pokemon as he let Tyranitar out.

Tyranitar recognized some of Ash's pokemon and greeted them. "Squirtle!" Squirtle , "Croconaw" Croconaw said. "My my Ash a Tyranitar quite an impressive specimen" Oak said as he walked over. "Hey May since our training session at Mt. Moon got interrupted , want to just finnish up here" Ash said.

"Sure, you ready Blaziken?" May said. Blaziken got in front of May and got into his battle stance. Ash turned to Tyranitar and said "Tyranitar you wanna go?". Tyranitar smiled and roared. He came in front of Ash and faced Blaziken.

"Blaziken use low sweep" May said. Ash immediatly tried to connect with Tyranitar's aura but since he just caught him it wasn't as easy as his other pokemon. "Tyranitar catch him" Ash said. Just before Blaziken could hit his opponent, Tyranitar brought his arms and claws down catching Blaziken's leg.

"What?" May said. Tyranitar hurled Blaziken away , roaring as he did it. Watching the Match were many of Ash's pokemon. Including his two Lucario, his female lucario was resting her head against his male's shoulders. Ever since Ash cured his female lucario of dark aura she had spent most of her time bonding with his male lucario.

His female lucario nuzzled her snout against the side of his male's head. Ash's male lucario's face started to turn red when both of them heard laughing behind them. They turned to see Oshawott in his back laughing at the two saying "Lucario and Lucario sitting in a tree". Ash's kingler was resting in a pond when he heard something get hurled into the water. He opened his eyes to see it was Oshawott.

"Blaziken use flamethrower" May said. "Tyranitar use bulldoze" Ash said. Tyranitar ran forward straight through the fire and knocked blaziken back over one of the fences. "Ok I think that's enough for now" Ash said. May returned blaziken and walked back over to Ash. "Well I don't think it'll take long for him to catch up with the rest of your pokemon with Daniel's training" May said.

"Oh right, hey Tyranitar guess what. We're training with the greatest pokemon trainer in the world" Ash said. Tyranitar roared when he heard this, "He likes to roar almost as much as charizard" May laughed. "Yeah I guess I better get use to it" Ash said. "Say Tyranitar you wouldn't mind coming with me would you. It's been a while since I've gottan to study a Tyranitar" Oak said.

"Go with him Tyranitar" Ash said. Tyranitar nodded and followed profesor Oak towards another section of the pen. "Hey Ash where are Profesor Burch and Tracey?" May said. "I think they went to the woods to look at a flock of spearow that just came in" Ash said. "Does that mean we're alone" May said. "Just us and the pokemon" Ash said.

"Good" May said she came over and kissed him. "I like a little privacy" She said before kissing him again. Squirtle and Croconaw laughed a little as they saw May put her leg around Ash's and move his leg forward making him fall backwards and her to fall forward onto the ground.

Pikachu came over and sat down next to them. The 3 watched as May rested on Ash and kiss him."Pika" Pikachu said. "Squirtle" Squirtle said.
