Chapter 9
Ash, Alice, Chase and Sarah are now at the movie theater as they are watching the movie known as the King of Bountiful Harvests. It is a movie that Ash and Alice filmed together with Nate and Elline two years ago, and they are now watching it again as they surprisingly get the tickets.
"I still don't get why we are watching it here when we have the film in our PC?" Ash asks.
"Well, Sarah and Chase want to know what it is like to be in the movie theater, and you always like the food here in the theater." Alice gives him a sigh.
"That's true. The popcorns here are tasty." Ash says as he grabs a bunch to eat it again.
Sarah asks, "Papa, why is that Calyrex has the same name as you? And why is that girl the same name as Mama?"
Ash says, "Because we are the two inside the movie."
Chase asks, "Can we see Papa riding the Spectrier and Mama riding the Glastrier when we go back home?"
Alice and Ash look at each other and Alice says, "Well, we have been riding it a lot of times, I guess you want to ride with us?"
The two children nod as Ash and Alice can only sigh, they really love their children, and never once they have been worried that they might have spoiled the children. As they go back to the castle in the Sevestar Island, which is quite empty since their family are living in the Rota Kingdom and it has been a place where their Legendary Pokemon are living.
Ash and Alice managed to call Glastrier and Spectrier as they ride around the castle, the children are happy to ride with them as they really enjoy the wind and the speed. Sarah is riding with Ash as she asks, "Papa, can you also do the Astral Barrage when you are riding this Pokemon?"
Ash sighs and says, "Sweetie, I am not a Calyrex, I can't do that."
"But you can perform every moves. Why don't you try it out? Please?" Sarah gives him a Skitty face and Ash can only sigh, then he takes out the Ghost knives and he tries to change it into the move, and much to his surprise, it works and it manages to hit the nearby tree.
"Yay! Papa is the best." Sarah says.
As for Chase and Alice, Chase also asks Alice to do the Glacial Lance, and Alice also agrees to do it as he uses the Rockruff face on her, and she manages to change the bow into a lance and it manages to hit the Pokemon.
Once the ride is over, Ash says, "You know, Alice. That sure is tiring us out."
"Yeah, but I guess we are able to perform Legendary Pokemon's moves as well...I wonder how did we do that?" Alice asks.
After having Sarah and Chase to play with other Pokemon, they call in Arceus as they talk about the situation. Arceus says, "Your aura powers have been growing stronger and stronger, but you manage to control them without bursting out, which means that you might have reach the rank of the Master Class."
"Master Class?" Alice asks. "There is a ranking system in the Aura users?"
"Yes. There is the Normal Rank, which are those who got married into the Ketchum Family or Aether Family recently. But after they train for a while, they get to the Super Rank, and then Hyper Rank, eventually the Master Rank like you two."
"So are we the only ones that get to the Master Rank?" Ash asks the Alpha Pokemon, who nods and says, "Even your parents are only at the Hyper Rank. Only those who have achieved great challenges that are able to get to the Master Rank."
"Okay...so now that we have the powers of the Legendary Pokemon...what can we do with those powers?" Ash asks.
Arceus chuckles a little and says, "Are you serious? You have the powers that anyone will like to have. You can use Dark Void to give anyone nightmares, you can also use Lunar Dance to have yourselves a good dream. And you might be even to use the Oblivion Wing to kill or Geomancy to revive the dead."
"Wait, for real?" Ash asks in delight. "Does that mean I can revive my father from death as well?"
Arceus says, "Of course, but there is a risk for doing so, when he gets revived, he won't be able to become an Aura user once again, and the next time he died, you can't revive him anymore."
Ash nods and he asks, "Well, we might as well try it out, so how are we going to do the reviving process?"
Arceus says, "First, you will need to go to the Shadow Realm to find your father's soul. In order to do that, you will need to use the move Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike. There is a time limit and when the time is up, you will return to your body.
"So what am I going to do when I found my father's soul?" Ash asks.
"You have to ask him if he wants to go back to the real world, and if he agrees, then you are going to ask where his body was and then bring it for the revival."
"Okay." Ash says as he asks Alice to do it. After a while, Chase and Sarah are back as they see Ash lying on the ground, Sarah asks, "Mama? What's wrong with Papa?"
"Your Papa is having a rest. Don't worry, he will be waking up soon." Alice says with a look of worry in her eyes.
Ash is walking around in the Shadow Realm, he sees a lot of spirits who are dead, there is the Stoutland that his Incineroar took care, and there is also the bad people that they killed with the order of the International Police, the people, including Giovanni, have been suffering while those who seem to be good people are living happily.
"So this is the place where dead people went..." Ash mutters as he finally finds a person that looks like one of his disguises, he quickly rushes towards the man and he says, "Are you Red Ketchum?"
The man, who was sitting on the bed, looks up to him and he asks, "Who are you?"
Ash feels his tears start to form, but since he is in a spirit form, no liquid comes out and he kneels, "I finally get to find you, father...I am Ash Ketchum, I am your son."
Red is surprised, as he remembers that before he is killed by Giovanni, he and Delia has a son who is called Ash. He wants to touch his son, but he can't, as he is just some gas like Ash. "Ash? Is that really you?"
Ash nods, and he smiles, "Look at you, you have already grown so much, but how did you die? Please tell me about it?"
Ash says, "I didn't die, Father. I have reached the Master Rank in the Aura Users, which is why I am able to come here."
"What?" Red is surprised, as he knows that not many Aura users are able to reach that rank. Red asks, "Then why are you here?"
"Are you kidding me? Father? I want to bring you back to our world. My mother missed you, Ms. Valerie miss you...Aunt Diantha also miss you as well."
Red remembers the names that Ash told him, and he sighs and says, "You know, my son. I have a lot of regrets, I didn't get to say goodbye to them, even if you are able to revive me, what happened to us in the past is still haunting their minds..."
Ash says, "I know, but right now they don't care about it anymore. Giovanni is gone in our world, you don't need to worry about any evil that ruin our family getting together. Please father, the time is running short, can you tell me where your body is so that I can revive you?"
Red is now hesitating, as he wants to see Delia and Valerie again, but he also has worries in his mind, then he takes a deep breath and says, "After I was killed, my body is preserved in the grounds of the Rota Kingdom."
Ash nods as he starts to disappear, Ash says, "Don't worry, Dad. We are going to revive you no matter what." After he is gone, Red smiles and says, "What did I do to have a loving son that wants me back to the world...it seems like I am really lucky."
Ash opens his eyes again and then Alice, Sarah and Chase quickly rush towards him. Alice helps Ash up and asks, "Ash...what did you see?"
"I found my dad." Ash says, "And I managed to persuade him to come back to the world with us."
"That's great. Where is his body?" Arceus asks him, and Ash says, "He is buried in the Rota Kingdom, we need to go there to find the body."
Alice and the others nod as they quickly head back to the kingdom, but they are surprised to hear that Delia is not inside the castle as she is now at the Pokemon League. Ash finds it a good opportunity to give his mother a surprise as he asks the guards if they know where Red's body is.
After showing them to a tombstone that has his father's cap, Ash and Alice asks the guards to dig the body out. At first the guards are hesitant since they are disrespecting the dead, but Ash asks them to do it as they manage to dig up the body, which has been eroded into bones.
Ash and Alice carefully put the bones back together and then uses the Geomancy on the bones, and much to every guard's surprise, the muscles, the skin, and eventually the organs are coming back, eventually a normal human who looks like he is in his 40s come back to life.
"Dad..." Ash asks, as the human manages to slowly wake up. He looks around and says, "Isn't this place the Rota Kingdom..."
"You are right, Dad." Ash says as he notices Ash. Then he remembers the conversation that he had with Ash a lot of hours ago. "Wait, so you managed to revive me from the dead?"
"Yes, dad. But there is one thing, you aren't able to become an aura user again..." Ash frowns, and Red stands back up and rubs his head, "Don't worry about it, although it is great to have those Aura powers to do anything I want. I might also want to be a normal human with a normal life."
Ash smiles and Alice says, "That's great, Ash. Don't you think?"
"Of course." Ash says with a loving smile. Red asks, "So who is your wife, Ash?"
Ash is surprised at his father's words, and he asks, "Well, this is Alice, she is from the Masho family and she is also the daughter of Valerie. But how did you know that we are married?"
Red says, "Simple, the ring you gave her is the same ring I gave to Delia when we were younger. And it is nice to meet you, Alice. How is your mother and father doing?"
"They are doing quite well, thanks for asking." Alice says. Ash says, "Dad, I think we should head inside the castle so that we can talk some more."
Red agrees as Ash orders the guards to fill the grave back to normal as they head inside the castle to give Delia a surprise.
Here is a new chapter, and I decide to revive Red from the dead ever since Ash and Alice find out their powers as Master class Aura Users. I hope you like it and the next one will be the reveal to both parents.
