...
Slowly, the great animal lifted it's head and two scarlet red orbs were all that Ash could stare at.
Pikachu cowered fearfully behind his trainer, sparks crackling in his cheek pouches.
The dust cleared from the clearing, leaving Ash to stand boldly infront of one of the two legendary POKe'MON from the Unova region.
It's mighty head was held high as storm clouds gathered above the forest in the skies.
A pair of huge dark wings had sprouted from it's back and it's tail, like that of a plasma cannon, was glowing a spiritual blue, and it's massive claws were sheathing against eachother, creating an unsettling appearance of the creature.
"Samurott! Water Pledge now!"
Ash turned his head just in time to see a young girl, the same one as Iris had battled earlier on for Emolga. She was commanding a large Walrein-lookalike creature, with yellow swords attached to it's head, legs and tail, it shot a strong torrent of water, straight at Zekrom.
As the attack hit, plumes of smoke arose and dust blinded the teenage boy and his rodent, penguin and baby mouse.
However, before the dust had even settled, a strong beam of light broke through the darkness, lighting up the entire forest.
All Ash could do was squint as a powerful thunder powered attack flew towards the girl's Samurott, knocking it back far past ten feet, causing it to crash into a tree and faint instantly.
"Whoa! A Bolt Strike! That's amazing! But try using your level 100 electric moves on my Krookodile!" The cocky female trainer yelled, her brown eyes never leaving the black dragon, who was still stood in the same place as before, looking unfazed.
Ash only watched as she sent out a massive, bipedal, red crocodile.
The creature had a long snout, sharp teeth, a white underbelly, and a black mask over it's eyes, and stripes the same colour over it's body.
It roared loudly, it's teriffying physique conquering that of a Feraligatr.
Ash's russet orbs darted back to Zekrom. The dragon just roared even louder, shaking the land beneath Ash's feet and causing trees to tumble and rocks to roll.
"Krookodile! Bulldoze!" She screamed over the rumble of the Earth, pointing an unrelented finger at Zekrom, who towered above the terrifying crocodile, making it look like a geko next to the dragon/electric type.
Krookodile snarled loudly, before raising it's claws and stamping hard on the ground.
Ash was swept off his feet as the awe inspiring combination of Zekrom's Roar and Krookodile's Bulldoze swept through the forest, causing a rhythmic shifting of the ground beneath them.
But as the trainer held onto a nearby tree, waiting for her crocodile to halt, she gasped.
"Krookodile stop!"
The croc fell to the floor, panting very heavily and almost unconcious.
She returned her tired creature and glared at Zekrom, who flew back to the ground, now that the attack was over.
Pikachu covered baby Azurill's eyes and ears as the trainer tried again.
This time, four POKe'MON appeared infront of Zekrom.
But the gigantic dragon just growled at her wasted attempts.
First, was a orange monkey, about the size of a Miltank. It screamed angrily, it's tail ruffling. The second was a zebra-like creature. It had black and white stripes covering it's body, and a spiky tail and blue ears. It whinnied loudly, scuffing it's grey hooves and shooting currents of electricity from it's entire body.
Third up, was a Bellossom lookalike, it had a string of flowers around it's body, and stood on two legs.
And lastly, there was a pink creature, it had intricate cream and pink patterns, and large curly ears.
"Simisear, Flame Burst, Zebstrika Discharge, Lilligant use Solar Beam, and Audino, use your Retaliate!" She commanded.
Combined with Zekrom's half attempted attack, the entire forest now went up in smoke and flames.
All four of her POKe'MON immediantly were rendered unconcious, and she returned them quickly, looking now in terror at the massive dragon, now surrounded by fire and static as the trees around them began burning to the ground.
Not taking any chances, Ash leapt forward, retracting Oschawott and Misty's Staryu, Starmie, Politoed and Gyrados's POKe'BALLs from his pocket, and throwing them high into the air.
"Piplup, Oschawott, Staryu, Starmie, Politoed and Gyrados! Use your water attacks to put out the fire!" Ash yelled, coughing as the smoke entered his lungs, causing him to crawl onto his knees and gasp for clean air.
The water POKe'MON nodded, and began water gunning, hydro pumping, water pulsing, whirlpooling, the hot flames.
Pikachu crackled cautiously as storm clouds gathered above, and Zekrom watched in amusement.
Ash continued choking on the floor of the burnt forest, his lungs striving for a breath of fresh air.
Pikachu looked scared at his trainer, wishing there something he could do to help.
All of a sudden, an idea clicked in the tiny rodent's head.
He immediately, began digging through Ash's bag, searching for something.
"P-Pikachu! I'm dying here and you're looking for ketchup!" Ash managed to splutter.
Pikachu just ignored his ungrateful friend's remarks and pulled out a soft material with his teeth, and placed it beside Ash triumphantly.
"Misty's handkerchief! you're a genius Pikachu!" Ash mumbled, placing the sacred cloth over his mouth and nose, allowing him to breathe normally.
Suddenly, as the flames were put out, another loud grumble shook Ash from his daydream.
Zekrom was screeching loudly, electricity bristling from it's body in what could only be described as caution.
A large white creature began flying down towards the clearing, a small blob on it's back.
As it landed, Zekrom took a few giant steps away from the intruder.
Reshiram roared at it's brother, shaking it's mighty white head in fury.
Zekrom replied, shooting a thundershock at the unwanted family member.
However, just as Reshiram was about to retaliate, it stopped and stood proud, it's mighty wings beating.
A green haired figure leapt off of Reshiram's back, and strode over to Ash.
Before the trainer could react, the man had punched him in the face, leaving Ash to sink to the floor in pain.
Pikachu grew angry, and let loose a strong and fierce Thunder attack.
The man had seen that coming, and hid behind Zekrom, letting the electric dragon absorb the energy with ease.
As Ash got back to his feet, he swayed slightly, before pulling the kerchief away from his face, and returning Misty's POKe'MON, and letting Piplup and Oschawott rejoin his party.
"Who are you? what do you want!" He yelled hoarsely, his eyes full of hatered.
"Just an old aquaintance, Ash Ketchum." He laughed, making Ash's hands clench into fists.
"Well I challenge you to a POKe'MON battle!" He yelled, pulling his newly caught Snivy's ball from his pocket.
The man just sneered, and shouted back at him.
"Using POKe'MON for petty fights just hurts them, I could never make my creatures battle for just victory, it's inhumane and cruel. Your POKe'MON would be better off being released into the wild."
Ash growled slightly, his eyes darkening and eyebrows furrowing in anger.
"Snivy!" The green creature cooed, looking at it's surroundings and her eyes widening at the sight of the two legendaries.
But the man just shook his head, and stepped towards Ash calmly.
"I have a proposition for you." He said, making Ash nearly fall over in surprise.
"I'd never make deals with people like you." He snapped, Pikachu bristling by his side.
"Leader N, of Team Plasma, we meet again."
The green haired man glanced over at a large oak tree, where another trainer stood.
She had brown eyes and brown hair, which was tied up in a high ponytail, and a white and pink cap was shoved over her head.
"Ah, Hello again Emily, nice to see you, how is your torturing, I mean 'training' of your dear little Oschawott going?' He sneered, watching as she glared daggers at him, she instinctively reached for her starter POKe'MON's poke'ball and gripped it tightly.
N? Ash had heard that name before...
Suddenly, N and Emily snapped their attention over to; who was knelt over screaming loudly.
The familliar pain was coursing this time, not just through Ash's head, but he could now feel it covering his entire body in a shroud of darkness.
"I told you my time would come..." The voice cackled manically.
Ash felt himself losing conciousness as the dark spirit overtook his mind and body.
"Well well, no need to get upset about it Ashton." N explained, raising an uncertain eyebrow at the bent over boy.
"I wasn't. I was simply admiring your own incompetence." Ash retorted, watching as N's eyes widened.
The man grew angry again, and stormed over to the smug Ash, and went to punch him again.
As N held Ash by his collar up to his face, he muttered to him, "Oh don't even think about trying to be smart with me, I can snap you in two like a ferocious Charizard would a weak and feeble Caterpie."
This just caused Ash to laugh loudly, tears forming in the corner of his eyes.
"Oh you think that's funny? well what if I told you I hold your little girlfriend's life in my power? then would you shut up!" He yelled, making Pikachu quiver by his trainer's feet.
Ash's face went to stone seriousness, and his eyes went grave.
"You cannot control me fool, I am the King of Poke'Lantis, and soon to be ruler of your puny little world, including you." Ash roared, shoving N away and dusting himself off.
"I think you've lost it, just like your father did." N snarled, looking incredously as pulsating aura circled the young boy.
But Ash just cackled, before Pikachu had decided that he'd had enough of Ash taking a death wish and let out a strong thunderbolt.
Ash's posessed body screamed as the electricity coursed through his body, sending the evil spirit back into hiding, for the time being...
Ash crashed back to the floor, his head spinning.
"N! Come back! What's the deal?" Ash yelled, clutching his brain in an attempt to quell the angry spirit inside.
N turned back, his face furious.
But when he saw Ash's scared face, he knew Ash had not been in control of his own body for at least a couple of minutes.
"Here's the deal. I know that you've saved the world from destruction many times, with titles such as 'The Chosen One', and 'Aura Gurdian', and not to forget the fact that you have met nearly every legendary in the universe and befriended each and every one." N added, recalling the research he had done carefully.
"Yeah, So?" Ash asked, crossing his arms.
"I have your girlfriend, Misteria." He also added, watching as Ash's eyes grew massive.
Suddenly, N felt the trainer hold him by his shirt, Pikachu sparking on his shoulder, ready for any command.
"Where. Is. She.? Give Misty back you creep!" Ash screamed, attempting to keep tears in.
N smiled at the broken down boy. She was his weakness...
"On one condition." N smirked, watching as Ash glared at him warily.
"What kind of condition?" Ash asked, waiting with his foot tapping.
N smirked at Ash before beckoning him over.
...
The large boom woke Misty again, causing her to jolt from her sleep.
Suddenly, Paul burst through the door, Weavile as ever in tow.
"Misty, N has gone to find Ash..." He panted, catching his breath as he hat un from the main Plasma room.
"What does he want with him?" Misty yelled, growing anxious at the thought of Ash getting hurt.
"I don't know, but I think it's got something to do with the legendaries." Paul explained, watching as Misty punched her window frustrated.
"Please don't come Ash. Please." She pleaded looking at the dark clouds outside her window.
She sighed deeply as a lone raindrop dripped down the glass.
...
As Ash glanced at Pikachu, N added.
"I'll make it worth your while." and the green haired gentleman tossed a familliar Mini-Ash lure at him.
Ash stared at the sentimental item lovingly and then looked back up at N.
"Deal."
...
"We still haven't found him anywhere! this is ridiculous!" Iris yelled, her Axew cowering in it's trainer's frustration and rage.
"We've gotta find Ash soon, he can't have gotten too far." Brock reassured them, petting Dawn's Cyndaquil as it lay stretched on Brock's shoulder.
Misty's Psyduck waddled beside the tanned man, quacking as it strolled.
"Well I hope we find him soon, I miss Piplup." Dawn wailed, watching her fire mouse as it snored sleepily.
Togekiss flew high above, seeking out the young boy and the three POKe'MON.
Just as Cilan was about to groan aswell,
Togekiss began flapping above, as if to alert them.
"Hey guys, I think Togekiss has spotted Ash!" Cilan exclaimed, pointing up at the bird in excitement.
"Emolga, go up beside Togekiss and see if she's seen Ash, Azurill, Pikachu and Piplup." Iris commanded, hoping that the electric/flying type would see their friends.
When Emolga came back down, they all rushed exitedly towards a clearing in the forest.
But all they found was a burnt out load of trees and foliage, along with an KOed POKe'MON trainer.
As she awoke, Emily smiled at Ash's four friends, before remembering the encounter.
But Reshiram, Zekrom, N or Ash, were nowhere to be seen.
But Pikachu was.
Dawn squealed as her beloved Piplup rushed into her arms, and Azurill did the same to Cilan.
Pikachu scurried towards Brock, a note clamped in it's jaws.
Brock took the note, and nearly fell over backwards.
Dear Brock, Dawn, Iris and Cilan,
If you find this note and Pikachu then I would like Cilan to take care of Pikachu, and Iris take care of Misty's Azurill.
I am absolutely fine, so as Dawn might say, "No need to worry!" anyways, I am going to be gone for some time, N says that if I wish to find Misty, I was to go to the Plasma hideout without my POKe'MON, so I guess this is goodbye for now. i'm sorry to Cilan and Iris for abandoning them like this but, I have to find Misty, and the only way to do that is to do as N wants. But I will be fine, take care of Pikachu, oh yeah, and I found a strange egg, Brock, look after it for me. Oschawott, Snivy, Tepig and Pidove's POKe'BALLs are all in my bag, take care of them, until I return.
I am counting on you guys,
From Ash. Xxx
...
Brock looked up from reading the letter outloud and looked at the group.
Iris was facing the ground, not saying a single word, Cilan was looking at Pikachu, who was propped upon his shoulder, looking upset, and Dawn was hugging Piplup, hiding her face in his warm feathers.
"What do you suggest we do?" Brock asked looking at Iris for an answer, but Iris kept quiet.
"I'm gonna find him." Cilan wavered, glancing at Pikachu, who was strangely silent.
"Hold on, I think we should sit tight for now, give him a chance." Dawn whispered, watching as Iris bent down to gather Azurill in her arms, just like she'd seen Misty do.
Iris just nodded, before looking at the sky.
"I just hope he's okay..."
