Prologue 2

After a few days since Ash declares to become the Pokemon Master, Ash and Gladion are now at the battlefield as they are using Pichu and Eevee to battle. Gladion's Eevee is found in the woods near Otem Town, it was injured by the wild Pokemon as it was yelping in pain, so Gladion quickly brings it to their own butler Hobbs. Hobbs quickly has the staff heal the Pokemon as the other family members are worried for the Pokemon. In the end, everything is fine and the poor Pokemon is recovered, with gratitude, Mohn asks Gladion to capture the Pokemon and he agrees.

"Pichu Thunder Shock!" Ash called out while Pichu discharge some small electricity from its small cheeks. Gladion's Eevee tries to dodge the attack, but it fails and eventually, it faints on the sport, much to Gladion's disappointment.

The other children are watching the battle and they have been cheering them on. Mark yells excitedly, "Looks like Brother Ash wins the battle again! I told you that he will win!"

"Okay, okay, just calm down, Mark. We all hear you." Flora sighs, the children from Aether Family secretly wish that Gladion would beat Ash since only Gladion has Pokemon, and it's normal for the family to cheer for family first.

Pichu hops back onto Ash's shoulder and Ash reaches out his hand to Gladion. "That was a great battle, looks like your Eevee has gotten stronger."

Gladion nods and he shakes the hand, he says, "Your Pikachu is also strong, I can give you that. But trust me, I am not going to lose next time."

"Sorry, but that's not going to happen next time, I'll win this again." Ash says with a confident smirk.

At the same time, Mohn and Adam walk towards the children, and the female members all hug them to show the family love. Adam smiles and asks, "Do you have some fun through battling?"

"Only Ash, Emma, and Gladion have Pokemon, we couldn't try out the Pokemon Battle without Pokemon." Insey says in dismay.

"But still, just seeing the battles still gives me a lot of vibes." Bryce says. "I can't wait to see if I can find my partner Pokemon. It will be amazing, right?"

"Of course it will be amazing, Trenor." Mohn says, "In that case, I have a special place that you can play. It is a place that I especially developed so that you can have some fun."

Adam and Mohn used Charizards to take the children to a place, there are 5 islands in the same place and each of them is different. They are now inside a raft hut and Mohn wears a straw hat, causing the others to look at him in confusion.

Gladion asks, "Dad? Where are we and what is this place?"

"This is Poke Pelago, which is a group of uninhabited islands reserved for the pleasure of Pokémon. It is located near our Aether Paradise, after all, so we also owned this place."

Then they take them outside as they go to the first island, which has a giant beanstalk. Adam says, "This is Isle Abeens, here, you can gather Poke Beans from the Poke Beanstalk which is in the middle of the island. Not to mention Wild Pokemon can also visit here, so it will be great if you capture some wild Pokemon in this place as well."

"So we just pick the Pokebeans on the ground?" Ash asks, and Mohn says, "You can also shake it, like this."

Then he shakes the beanstalk, causing some beans to fall to the ground. The others are in awe and Trenor says, "Amazing."

Pichu bites one Plain bean, he squeals and he likes the taste of the Pokebeans, this causes them to curious about the taste, so Ash takes one and he says, "I'll taste one too!"

"But Ash, this is meant for Pokemon!" Adam warns him, but it was too late, Ash has already eaten it.

"Wow! It is amazing!" Ash says, causing everyone to look at Ash with shock. They know really well that Pokemon Food wasn't edible for humans, but he can taste it without any problem, it causes them to wonder. Adam asks Ash to make sure he didn't hear it wrong. "You like it? I mean...you didn't feel weird by eating it?"

"Come on, Dad. It is tasty!" Ash says. "I really hope that mom can use it to make food for dinner."

The others decide to try out the beans, and much to their surprise, they also like the beans. Adam thinks, "Strange...are they awakening?"

Mohn says, "Kids, there are some more islands. Follow me."

At Isle Aplenny, they try to plant some berries, and they also grow a lot of them so that they can harvest them for Aurora to cook for them. And in Isle Aphun, they enter the cave as they go find some treasures, they even get some fossils in the cave as they want to revive some Pokemon to be friends.

And in Isle Evelup, they try all the different facilities, even though they were all meant for Pokemon, and both Mohn and Adam don't mind about it, as they want them to be happy. And in the end, they relax in the hot springs in the Isle Evue, which they heard that they can also place Pokemon Eggs here to make them hatch quickly.

As much as they enjoy their time there, they know that they need to get home, or else Aurora and Lusamine might be worried for them. After being back to Sevestar, Ash says, "What a day."

"Yeah. I'm happy that dad made a paradise for our Pokémon and us." Lillie replies as they go have some fun in the garden, trying to end the day with a lot of playing.

In front of Ash's enormous castle grounds, there is a Pokemon Lab that is meant for giving out starters who start their journey in the Sevestar Region. Professor Pine is the regional Professor in Sevestar, his work is related to finishing the National Pokedex, because of it, he has been studying with Professor Oak in the Kanto Region and the Ketchum family to gather some data about Pokemon. Ash and his siblings often go to the lab as they want to listen to Professor Pine's stories of Pokemon. Not only them, sometimes their cousins Eve and Pina will also join them to listen to the stories with their mother's permission. Ash's father has set up Teleport Panels in every family house so that they can have fun with their relatives as well.

"Professor Pine, do you have any new stories?" Ash asks the Professor after they arrived at the lab because Adam needs to work on something there.

The old Professor just laughs at Ash and the other siblings' enthusiasm. He says, "I sure do. How about I told you the story of Arceus? A Normal Type Legendary Pokemon that is said to be able to change its type with its ability?"

The others are now curious as they don't know about this Pokemon, but for Palmo, Dia, and Gina, they can only gulp a little. Professor Pine asks, "So have you guys heard of this Pokemon before?"

Lillie raises her hands and says, "Arceus is the God Pokemon, right?"

Professor Pine chuckles a little and he says, "Yes. He created the universe, and he is known to be the Alpha Pokemon. Here is the story that is related to Arceus:

Estimated a thousand years ago, in the town of Michina in Sinnoh, there is nothing but barren land. A meteor comes to strike the earth, and it will destroy it if nobody takes action. That is why Arceus comes into the story, he summoned all of its power and tackled the massive rock, destroying it. However, in the process, Arceus lost the seventeen Plates that gave it life and began to die."

"Then what happened?" Oscar asks, feeling worried for the Pokemon.

"A man, Damos, witnesses everything and he gathers all the Pokemon to search for the plates, eventually giving back to Arceus and have him recover all the strength he has. In gratitude for Damos's actions, Arceus detached five of its Plates, Splash plate, Zap plate, Earth plate, Meadow plate, and Draco plate, and formed the Jewel of Life, which is loaned to him to make the desolate wasteland of Michina Town rich and fertile. But he stipulates that the Jewel of Life had to be returned, and the date was the next solar eclipse."

"Did he do it?" Mark asks with confusion. "I mean...did he returned the jewel to Arceus?"

"If I was in the story, I will want the jewel to be given back to Arceus. But the answer to your question is a no. When Arceus appeared to reclaim the Jewel, Damos viciously attacked it with the intent to kill, much to its abject shock. Arceus managed to fight off the attack and counter, killing Damos and destroy the Michina." Professor Pine shakes his head as he is still in disbelief with the evil humans.

Eve feels sorry for the Arceus and she says with anger, "How could he be so evil? That shouldn't be the way to repay Arceus!"

"I am sure that everyone who hears the story feels the same way, that is no way to treat a god and it is a good thing that they deserve what they have done. And due to the injuries and tiredness, Arceus went back to the Hall of Origins to sleep. It is said that after a thousand years, Arceus will return and he will give the Judgement to the humans. And that is the end of this story." Professor Pine says.

"Wow. Great story." Zossie says as they all applaud for the Professor.

"It sure is." Lillie says. "Right, Ash?"

But Ash is silent with some hints of anger on his face, which makes them confused.

"Ash, you are quiet today, what's wrong?" Flora asks, and this causes Ash to snap out of it and he turns back to normal.

"Oh, nothing. By the way, Professor, it really is a good story." Ash gives a small smile.

After leaving the lab, Dia whispers to Palmo, "Do you think that he will get his revenge? I mean, even though there are still 10 years before the due time of 1000 years."

Palmo shivers a little and says, "I hope not. If he does it, all of us will be in trouble."

Gira looks at Ash and Lillie, who are chatting with each other as they look happy and innocent she sighs, "Let's just hope Ash won't be blinded by anger."

Back at the lab, Adam asks Professor Pine, "You do know that the story is related to them, why are still giving them that story?"

Professor Pine says, "I know what I was doing is a risk since I noticed how Ash changed his face. But I think that he should know the truth, after all, if you keep procrastinating the truth for much longer, I feel like Ash will be hurt even more."

Adam sighs and says, "Come to think of it, maybe you are right about this."

Professor Pine nods and says, "Well, right now let's not think about that, let's continue what we are researching." Adam nods as they go back to work.

And that should finish the second Prologue, I decide to introduce the Poke Pelago since there will be something happening to Professor Mohn that wouldn't be able to add this into the story, and I decide to reveal the story of Arceus here so that you can get some hints about Ash. But I am sure that you can guess what it is, right?

Anyways. We will be introducing more characters in the next chapter. See you.
