Chapter 34

Tox brings Dawn to one of the bases of Team Plasma, there, they see that Dr. Gus and Dr. Eason are treating the crying Bonsly.

"There, please don't cry anymore." Gus says as she manages to comfort the Bonsly.

"You sure are good at comforting him. Gus." Eason says.

"I know." Then they see Tox and Dawn walking in. "Ah, Tox, it is good to see you back, and I see you bought your sister here." Eason says. "Welcome to the Team Plasma's Center. We take care of injured or abused Pokemon until they are sent back to the wild or finding a better trainer."

Dawn looks at the two doctors and she looks at Tox with a questioning look. She asks, "I thought you were taking me to Ash, why are you taking me to the two famous Doctors?"

"Because Dr. Eason here is Ash in his disguise." Gus says as Dawn is surprised.

"Ash? You are Dr. Eason?" Dawn is in utter shock. Ash says, "Yes, Dawn. I have been hiding for these years in the disguises. Since what I have been wasn't a good memory..."

Dawn frowns as she remembers how he was betrayed by themselves. "I am sorry..."

"Don't be. In fact, even though you were controlled to betray me, you actually didn't say anything bad at that time." Ash says, much to her surprise.

"Really?" Dawn can't believe what she was hearing.

"Indeed. So I forgive you." Ash says with a smile as Dawn hugs him. "Thank you so much, Ash..." She cries.

Tox notices how Alice feels annoyed and he quickly pulls her away. "Dawn, you shouldn't do that in front of his girlfriend."

"Girlfriend?" Dawn is surprised as she looks at Gus, who has turned back to Alice, and then Ash. "You have a girlfriend, Ash?"

"Yeah, this is Alice, Kalos born and also a member of the Masho Family, one of the current two aura families." Ash says.

Alice then softens her gaze and says, "It is nice to meet you, Dawn."

Dawn nods as she doesn't actually have any feelings for Ash, they are like a teacher and student relationship. "It is nice to meet you as well. I am glad that someone can break this guy's dense head."

"Hey? Are you saying that I am dense?" Ash asks.

"You were, just look at how many girls that wanted to be with you, but you didn't understand what they meant." Dawn says.

"True. My Dad's diary sure taught me a lot about it." Ash says. "By the way, we should go back to our island, I can't wait to tell my Mother that I won the Sinnoh League."

Alice says, "Yeah. We should go there."

Dawn is confused at the words, she asks, "Ms. Ketchum knew the truth that Ash was Red?"

"She knew." Tox says, "And she got Ash's forgiveness, as well as all the Pokemon Ash owned."

"Wow..." Dawn says. "That is nice...I guess."

Once they go back to Sevestar Island using the AK151, and Dawn is shocked to learn that Ash can drive a plane. Then they go to the island and they greet Delia and the others.

"Dawn? What are you doing here?" Delia is surprised to see Dawn here with Ash and the others.

"Mother, I forgave her, since she didn't actually say anything to me back then." Ash says.

"I see. I am glad that you are softening up." Delia says.

"By the way, where are Pikachu and Sylveon?" Alice asks.

"They are playing in their room." Valerie says. "They sure are madly in love, just like you two."

Ash and Alice blush and then Dawn says, "So Pikachu has found his mate?"

"Yeah. A Sylveon." Tox says. "And Ash is the one that hatched it."

Dawn nods as she asks Ash, "So are you going to forgive the others?"

Ash's face then turns dark and says, "I won't be able to forgive them. Since they really hurt me bad. But I am not forcing you to break your friendship with them because of me, you just need to keep my whereabouts a secret."

"I see." Dawn frowns a little, but she knows that it can't be helped. Then Ash and Alice decide to take Dawn to meet their new friends and then reveal everything to her in the end.

Ash told his mother about the news that he only has one more league left, which is the Kanto League, Delia agrees to have a battle with him once he won the conference and also the Elite 4, then Ash can't wait to do it as he goes to challenge the gyms.

Then Queen Ilene takes them to a ranch, in the ranch are two Rapidash. Ash asks, "Aunt Ilene? What are those?"

"These are the Rapidash that your father and your mother rode as Yuma and Sandy." Ilene says with a smile. "And I suppose that you want to follow your father's footsteps, right?"

Alice says, "As the Rapidash racers? It sounds fun."

"I agree." Ash says. "Aunt Ilene, can we bring these two back to our island so that Ms. Valerie can teach us about it?"

"Of course, in fact, these aren't my possession." Ilene says.

Then they spend some time in Sevestar Island as Valerie and Delia decide to teach them how to control a Rapidash as racers. They taught them some tricks and then they try out in local racing competitions, and they all won the race in the end as they have a lot of fans.

One night, Ash and Alice finish their race in the Alola Region, as they are going home with another cup, then they hear someone calling for help.

"What is that?" Ash asks Alice. "I don't know. But it sounds like it is coming from there."

They follow the sound as they see a boy shivering at a tree. Ash and Alice rush up to the boy and then Ash asks, "Are you okay?"

Because the forest at night time is dark, the boy can't see their faces. He is a little terrified and he mutters, "Don't hurt me..."

Alice notices how the boy is scared, and she talks in a soft voice. "We aren't going to hurt you, but what are you doing here?"

"I...I'm lost...I don't know how to get back to the Orphanage..." The boy cries. Ash and Alice look at each other and then Ash says, "Don't worry, we will help you."

Alice says, "Can you give us your name so we can help you?"

The boy hesitated for a while and then he says, "Trenor...that's my name..."

"I see. Trenor. So why did you come out of your orphanage?" Ash asks.

"I want to see Yuma and Sandy in the race...I am a big fan of them and I want to cheer for them at the scene." Trenor says.

"Sounds like you sure are a fan." Alice giggles. Then they ask him a lot of questions, such as the parents, which he reveals that his parents are victims of an Earthquake and then he was sent to the Orphanage, but he was often bullied because of his actions towards other people in the orphanage. This causes Ash and Alice to feel sorry for him. Then they manage to get back to the orphanage and then the caretaker rushes to Trenor.

"There you are, do you know how worried we are?" The caretaker scolds Trenor, who lowers his head in shame. "Thank you for finding Trenor, um...Mr. and Ms.?"

"I am Yuma and this is Sandy." Ash says, which causes Trenor to gasp as well as the caretaker. "You are the Rapidash Racers?" The Caretaker asks.

"Yes, we are." Alice says. Trenor can't believe it, all this time he was with the two famous Rapidash racers. He says, "Wow...I get to see Sandy and Yuma this close...it feels like a dream come true..."

Yuma says, "You are exaggerating. But after hearing a lot of stuff about Trenor here, I will like to ask if I can adopt him?"

The caretaker and Trenor are shocked. The caretaker says, "I know that the children here like to gang up on him, but are you sure you can handle him?"

Alice says, "Don't worry, we promise that we can take care of him."

Then the Caretakers go prepare the adoption papers, while Sandy goes with Trenor to clean up his stuff. The children are shocked to hear that Yuma is going to adopt Trenor, they feel sorry for bullying him and then they bid Trenor farewell. Trenor is surprised about their behavior, but he did say goodbye to all of them. Then Trenor goes with Ash and Alice to Sevestar Island.

In AK151, Ash and Alice are talking to Trenor as Ash says, "You see, Trenor, Yuma, and Sandy are only disguises. In fact, my real name is Ash Ketchum."

This causes him to widen his eyes. "Ash Ketchum? I heard a lot about you when I was younger, you are a hero to me because of how you have been saving Legendary Pokemon and also stopping evil teams."

"Why thank you." Ash says. "After we arrive, we have something that needs you to do. It may cost your life if you fail, but if you succeed, then you will get powers just like us."

He nods as they get out of the plane after landing, then Ash decides to perform the Aura Test while Alice goes to call other people.

As the others get outside, Delia says, "Ash is doing Aura Test again?"

"Does that mean we are going to get another family member?" Minami asks. "I mean...how and why?"

"Well, yes. Ash and I got to an orphanage and we found a boy there interesting. So we decided to adopt him." Alice says.

"I see." Delia says. Then they see that Trenor passed the test as Ash helps him up, "Congratulations, now you are a part of the family."

"Thank you, brother." Trenor says. Then Ash introduces him to everyone, and they all welcome him to the family. Delia also welcomes him as her third son.

What shocks Trenor more is that Arceus also greets him and even gives him some Legendary Pokemon for Ground Types. Namely Groudon, Landorus, and Zygarde. Ash and Mark also train with him with Aura as they compete against each other.

After staying with the family for a while, Ash decides to train Trenor with the horse racing, as there is a competition that is a relay with three participants to enter. And because how Trenor likes to use Ground Types, they decide to train him with his Mudsdale to make sure it can keep up with the Rapidash that they have owned. Trenor is nervous as he doesn't want to be the reason the famous Rapidash racers lose, but the two of them assure him that winning or losing is not important, and that makes Trenor a little better.

In Trenor's first race, they have a competition against the Dark Raiders, who have been trying to cheat to win against them, and they even go this far as to hurt Alice. Ash is very angry at the fact as he has the police arrest them at the end of the race. And with Valerie and Delia's help, Alice's injury is healed and they can continue to do what they need to do.

Here is a new chapter, and Dawn got Ash's forgiveness since she didn't actually do anything when Team Rocket controls all of them, and this concludes the second to last member of the Ash Ketchum's family. I hope you like it and then the next chapter will be the final member, Insey.
