Chapter 10 : Questions Keep Coming

Ash and crew were now running at full speed towards a nearby forest trying to find the infected that Mewtwo told them about . They've been looking around for about 2 minutes now and haven't seen any sign of infected.

Ash was starting to feel frustrated . He wanted to find them ASAP before they attacked any trainer and infect their pokemon. " dammit ! Where are they?" Luke asked also feeling frustrated .

" we should split up! I'll go straight ahead , Gaby go back , Amy take left , T.K you're on right and Luke , fly around see if you can spot any from above"Ash said as they all headed to their assigned direction .

Ash kept running forward in hopes of finding one of the infected ' jeez , why are they so hard to find? And psychic types can only detect them , not gove us exact locations because they're literally dead' ash thought as he jumped up a tree and activated his aura sight . He had learned this in the island , but he can only sense until a certain distance for hes only trained his aura for 2 years . All he saw was a group in the woods who seemed to be camping , there was around 4 people , he dicided on ignoring it until he heard a scream come from that direction .

He noticed a dark aura nearing said group. " Bingo!" Ash said as he jumped off the tree a d began running full speed towards the group ' I've found one'Ash communicated telepathically using his aura . This was an ability created by ash , it allows him to communicate mentally with people that he trusts . ' so did I 'T.K replied . 'You're lucky . I got three 'Luke informed ' I found two'Amy said ' yo tambien'Gaby said [ me too] ' what she say?'T.K asked ' who knows' ash said as he cut the line . [ does that make sense?]

Ash reached the clearing and saw a group of people trying to fight against the infected . A Mightyena it seemed . " what are you doing? Step back !" Ash ordered as he stood between the group and the dead mightyena . " who are you ?" A girl from the group asked . She had blue hair and pink eyes , white dress and a brown coat . " it doesn't matter , I'll handle this "ash said as he signaled his pikachu to take a stand to which said pokemon complied. " hey! We can take care of this !" a guy from the group said " this isn't a joke! Get back! " ash said in a serious yet annoyed tone . The guy stayed silent and ran back to his group .

Ash turned back to the problem at hand and eyed the Feral Mightyena . It was all dirty , bloody , missing an eye and it looked like it had rabies. Ash gulped and thought 'so that's what they look like ' " pikachu ! Use thunderbolt !" ash commanded as pikachu strucked the mightyena making it fall to the ground . " Hey! What are you doing ? Can't you see it's hurt?" Another one of the group said while the women nodded. " That mightyena is dead " ash said without caring to look at him . He continued to stare at the mightyena as it started to get back up .

' the hell? It shouldn't get up with that' ash thought as mightyena got up losing a leg in the process . At this point one of the group started to puke and soon followed by the rest. " is it really dead ?" one of the group asked as he recovered from the puking . Ash ignored him and stared at the infected . He then heard a voice coming from the Mightyena ( H...h...eee..lp...mmeee)Ash gasped and looked at pikachu and pikachu looked at him confirming that he heard correctly. Ash felt a tear come through his face and said " I will...save you...THUNDER!!" Ash yelled as pikachu did as told . This was too much for the dead mightyena qs it's body began to crumble . It fell to the ground and to ashs surprise , it still tried to get up.

Ash walked up to the mightyena and kneeled. He looked at his right palm and said " ...you may rest "as he touched the infected a d in a blue flash it disappeared . Sent to heaven where it was received by Arceus .

Ash stared at the empty spot where the mightyena used to be . He looked at his hands and said " as long as they don't suffer "he clenched his fists and hot up and began to walk away .

"Hey! What the hell did you do to that mightyena ?" The girl asked as she walked up to ash " it died. That's all there is to it" ash said as he continued to walk away but was stopped again by the girl asking " who are you ?" ash looked at her in the eyes and noticed that she was genuinely curious ... " I'm just a sinner " ash said as he touched the symbol in his shoulder and left .

Ash was now walking through the forest and found T.K sitting on the ground next to a pile of dead Pokemon . Ash looked at him and asked " you okay?" T.K turned to him and said " yeah...just.. get it over with"

He stood up and walked away leaving a worried ash . Ash looked down at the pile and thought ' so he got four ' He kneeled and said " you're free" As the pile became blue dust and faded away . He got up and continued to do the same with the ones the rest of his team had defeated .

Ash , Luke , Gaby , and Amy were walking back to the poke center to get some rest . They were all a little affected by the events of today , even if they didn't want to admit it . Though T.K seemed more affected by this . Ash looked at his left and stopped walking . Luke looked at him and asked " you okay?" Ash said " yeah , you go ahead ." He began to walk away .


He soon found himself in the shopping district of lumiose . Since there was a tournament there were a lot of stands around. He was walking through them looking for something interesting to buy . Suddenly he felt a craving for ice cream . He saw a nearby stand of icecream

' yummy' He thought as he approached it .

Once he arrived at the icecream stand he ordered a cone . He smiled and began searching his pockets for money but was stopped when the women selling him the cone said

" that's on the house " she smiled . Ash looked up in surprise and asked" huh? It's free? Why?" The women laughed and said " did you think you wouldn't get recognized ? Champion of Alola?" Ashs eyes grew wide and said " please keep it down , the last thing I want is everyone here asking for pictures or autographs " The women held back a laugh " by the way . I can't accept this for free , I'm not like that" Ash said as he got some change out of his pockets the women seemed to think for a moment and said " then how about this . You take that cone and In Return you give me an autograph and a picture in my stand?" " a picture why?" Ash asked the women leaned in on ash and said " Publicity . Who wouldn't want to buy a cone which even the champion of alola enjoys ?" the women asked no one in particular. Ash smiled and said

" alright . If that's what you want " ash replied as he posed for a photo which the women gladly took , ash signed the picture that came out of the camera . He bid farewell and disappeared in the crowd enjoying his icecream .

Ash was now walking in what seemed to be a dirt road . He didn't really know where he was headed to , but walked anyway. He looked up and saw a man with a hood walking towards him . He had a light blue hoodie , black pants and green shoes , his face couldn't be seen .The mysterious man stood in front of him and said with a mildly wicked smile" so , you're the great Ash Ketchum" Ash looked up at him and said " You know me?" Ash asked cautiously . Sure he could just be a fan or a reporter in disguise. But this man had a rather dark aura. Not enough to be considered a threat but not enough to he a saint either. " But of course ... who wouldn't know the champion of Alola" The man said laughing . Ash sighed and thought ' only the people of Alola Know , so that's what he meant' The man stepped closer to ash , like their faces 2 inches apart , which startled ash " oh , but that's not what I know you from " The man said with a very maniac look on his face .

Ash stepped back and put a serious face and said " who the hell are you ?" Pikachu now sparkling ready to protect his trainer. The man laughed and said " Oh my , so nice of you to ask . My name is ..." The man disappeared from ashs sight . Ash was surprised at this ' where did he go?' Ash thought . The man appeared behind ash and said

" too good for you to know " ash turned around and saw noone. He sweated cold . ' who was he? an Enemy? The fuck is going on?' Ash thought . Pikachu seemed as surprised as him . Ash decided that there was no use to think about it , he knew nothing of this . " we should talk this with the rest" Ash said as Pokachu nodded .

Ash was now entering the poke center . Once he entered he saw a group of people on the counter with nurse joey. He immediately recognized the people present . He sighed and thought ' great . Misty , Max , Iris , And Cillan all cozy in the same room' . He was about to go around them to avoid contact , but apparently nurse Joey had a different idea in mind. She noticed ash walking and quickly called for him " excuse me ! Mr.Champion ! You have recieved a package !" She shouted to which ash shuddered and slowly turned towards her with a look that said 'Really?' The group noticed him and said " champion?" Ash sighed .

" I've never seen Any champion like him" Max told Misty to which she replied " me neither " . Ash walked up to the counter and said to nurse Joey " thanks for telling me . I would like to retrieve it please" . Iris walked up to Ash and said " hey! You're a champion?" Ash turned towards her. " iris. Stop being so rude " Cillan said as he pushed iros behind him " I apologize for her rude behavior sir." Cillan told ash as he leaned over as an apology . Ash didn't know what to do , they didn't seem to recognize him , so he decided to roll with it. " no problem , I rather have people talk to me in a friendly matter " Ash smiled . Cillan got up and nodded and asked " so , is it true that you are indeed a Champion?" " and if so , from what region?" Max asked as he pushed his way forward . " uh. Yeah I'm a champion . Alolas champion" ash said as he looked away ' The fuck is going on?' he thought as he gritted his teeth .

" Wow!! You're the champion of alola ? Like the champion which noones seen?" Misty asked with stars in her eyes .

At this point Nurse Joey had retrieved the package and handed to Ash and said " here you go " Ash nodded and asked " may I ask who's it from?" nurse joey sweatdropped and said " sorry , it doesn't say " ash nodded and said " oh well " Hey , you're strong aren't you?" Max asked ash looked at him in an incredulous look . Cillan grabbed Max's arm and said " what kind of question is that? Hes a champion , obviously hes strong " max freed himself and said " I know. Wanna battle?" Ash scoffed and said " no offense Max but I literally have a thousand better things to do"

Max's face saddened and said " what? Really ?" Ash nodded and was about to walk away until he was stopped by iris which said " surely you can make time for one battle right?" Ash looked at her and sighed he was about to say something but was stopped by a voice behind him " hey boss" Ash looked at his back and saw T.K and Cynthia . " oh , Cynthia , T.K , where to?" Ash asked. Cynthia smiled and said

" hi Ash , were just going ...for some coffee " cynthia said with a hint of embarrassment ' shit! Did she just say my name?' Ash thought as he glanced at the group behind him , they didn't seem to react . " see ya later boss" T.K said as he and cynthia began to walk away. " hey! You know him?" Max asked the sinnoh champion . Cynthia seemed to stop walking and looked at max and said " well of course, you can't forget someone like Ash Ketchum" Cynthia smiled . [ did cynthia ever meet max?]

" Ash ketchum? " Max asked " dammit Cynthia!" Ash said . He forgot that cynthia never knew what these guys did . T.K took this as a sign and decided it was time to leave " oh yeah I almost forgot , there's a meeting for champions going on later . Like at 6 . So you better be there Ash" Cynthia said as she and T.K exited the poke center. Ash sweatdropped and looked at his back and to his surprise misty said " so your name is Ash . Nice to know " as Cillan and Iris nodded. Ash was very confused by now .

They didn't know him , even after receiving information on his name. Nothing. " so ash ketchum of alola , I hope we can be friends " Cillan said as he took Ashs hand and shook it. ' what the fuck?' Ash thought

" hey guys we should head to our room . I'm pretty tired " Iris said as she yawned. Misty and Cillan nodded as they began to walk away " see you later Ash!" Max said as he followed the rest.

...' WHAT THE FUCK!!!' Ash thought. He was in shock and it seemed that pikachu was feeling the same . What just happened , they did not remember him . Why? Could they forget him that easily? First the infected showed up then the mysterious guy from earlier and now this bullshit . He sighed and said " this is gonna give me a headache" He proceeded to grab the box he was given by nurse Joey and went straight for the elevator.

He reached the top floor and walked to his room . [ more like an apartment for it had 5 rooms a kitchen and a living room ]He opened the door and his jaw fell open at what he saw . Gaby was passed out on the ground with a piece of meat in her mouth , there was food everywhere, footprints all the way to the roof , Amy was crazily cleaning all she could, she was freaking out , being a cleaning freak and all . Luke was nowhere to to be seen .Ash walked in and asked " what the hell happened here!?" Amy semmed to notice him and said " please help me!!! This is too much !! Gaby got crazy and ordered a lot of food and she started to play with the food and it ended up sticking to the walls somehow , and and and- " Amy tried to say as she passed out .

Ash was speechless. He eyed the whole place , the only part clean was where Amy was previously cleaning . He sighed . From the door came in Luke " hey , Ash ! Been looking for you " He looked at the room and asked " Gaby?" " Gaby" Ash said ...

" Gaby. Ra.ra.ra!" Gaby mumbled in her sleep ..." I'm gonna kill her" Ash said
