-Pallet Town, Kanto Region-

The day dawned crisp and clear. The Town was beautiful and serene, people lived peacefully along with Pokemon. We can see a small house having two floors that is comfy enough for the small family of two who lives in there.

The house is simple, with a living room including a TV and a comfy couch, a kitchen and dining area. .

A woman who is a Single Mother named Delia Ketchum is seen cooking breakfast for her beloved Son who is 5 years old along with her Pokemon Mr Mime.

Ash Ketchum

Speaking of the Devil, A loud padding tiny foot came barreling from the second floor. A boy with raven hair and a white shirt with short black pants came running to the Living room with a big grin.

"Good Morning, Ash.." Delia greeted her Son

"Good Morning, Mama ! Mr Mime!" He greets them back with Enthusiasm. " Today, Can I go to Prof. Oak's laboratory? ! "

Delia chuckled and smiled, "Of course , We will bring lunch."

The boy yipped in joy, he ate the breakfast in a rush and ran towards the door but before he got out he shouted to his Mother as a greeting to leave the home. Then he runs toward Prof. Oak's Laboratory.

Prof. Oak is a famous Professor and Pokemon Researcher, He has a grandson who is named Gary, but for Ash, he really didn't get close to children who are the same age as him because of his social Awkwardness. He prefers to stay with Pokemons.

Everyone might see Ash as an innocent and naive child with his Joy and hyperactive personality, but that is wrong. He is a genius, prodigy. At age 5, Ash already read all of the book about medicine to help the injured pokemons or the legendary pokemons and top of that he has a secret that no one knows except his Mother and Prof. Oak himself.

"Prof. Oak!" Ash shouted as he entered the Laboratory.

A loud crash was heard from the second floor making Ash winched slightly. He looked up and indeed saw a rumpled Prof. Oak, who seemed like he hadn't been sleeping for about 2 days.

"Oh, Ash! Welcome!" Prof. Oak greeted him, "The Pokémon are in the ranch..."

Ash scrunched his nose adorably, "Professor, have you slept lately?"

"Ah, I've been busy with my presentation, you know." Prof. Oak sheepishly scratched the back of his neck

Ash can only shake his head and decides to go to the ranch where the pokemons are. There are various kinds of pokemons in the ranch, wild or not, but no matter what he is loved among the pokemons, It's like he is destined to be with them.

He entered the ranch and indeed saw a bunch of pokemon in there, Ash grinned like a christmas tree. He ran towards the pokemons who immediately brightened upon seeing the boy.

"Hey! How are you all doing?!" Ash asked.

The Pokemons piled up and buried him under them until Ash got out from the pile-up.

"We're all doing okay, Ash.." Arcanine said to him.

Yes, the secret he has is that Ash can understand pokemon. The words spoken by the pokemon are like his own language in his eyes. He looked into the book and it was about Aura. He can understand pokemon because of his immense aura. He also understands that the pokemons were extremely protective of him and it makes him feel safe among the pokemons. But at the same time he also knows that there are bad pokemons out there. Just like how there are good humans and bad humans.

He also knows that he is different from other humans. Ash doesn't like to get into crowds but he likes to battle. He enjoys staying among pokemons than with humans. He has his mask in his defense as a naive and innocent child. He also knows the cruelty of the world.

While playing with the pokemon Ash suddenly gasped and looked at the forest outside the ranch. Prof. Oak had already warned him not to go into the forest, because there are a lot of dangerous wild pokemons. But for some reason, he feels like something terrible happened nearby. Therefore, he ran straight towards the border separating the ranch and the forest only to be halted upon seeing the worried little pokémon. This makes Ash smile,he crouched down beside them and assures them.

"It's okay, I am only going to check in there," Ash tells them.

"I will come with you, I can not leave you alone." Arcanine barked to him.

Ash then looked up to the Sky and asked "Butterfree, Do you mind coming with us also?"

"With pleasure, Ash" She chirped up.

Ash crossed the wooden fence with Arcanine beside him and Butterfree flew around him. He walks slowly, letting his footsteps stay silent, ignoring the small forest pokemons who are staring at him from their hideout. He gasped when he saw a humanoid pokemon with white and pink color leaning against the tree. Ash knows this pokemon, it was Mewtwo - A Mythical pokemon and the strongest psychic type in the world.

"It's injured!" Ash said upon noticing the Gaze on his side.

Ash walked faster towards the Mythical Pokemon, he didn't know what to do. It's the first time something like this occurred to him and his aura is spiked, alerting him someone was coming towards them with a malicious intent.

"Where is it!" A male voice shouted.

Mewtwo who heard the voice snapped its eyes open and growled at Ash who shushed him, "Can you stand up? I'm not gonna do something to you. They are hunters, they want to catch you, don't they?"

Mewtwo narrowed its eyes but still tried to stand up which caused its knee to buckle up. This makes Ash grab one of its arms which makes it stiffen and stare at Ash.

"Arcanine, look for a hidden cave or a hidden hole" Ash commanded and looked up at Butterfree who hovered above them worriedly, "Butterfree, can you use sleep powder on those hunters? Don't let them catch us."

On hearing the command Butterfree flew towards those hunters. Ash adjusted his hold and followed Arcanine silently until they arrived in the let mewtwo sit on the ground and lean on the wall of the cave. Mewtwo sat in silence still staring at Ash.

Ash gave a relieved look back at Arcanine who was guarding the entrance of the cave in a protective manner which made him smile.

"Why?" A male voice echoed in his mind.

"Why am I helping you?" Ash asked, smiling gently with an open heart, "Do you need a reason to help a living creature?"

"You are a weird boy." He commented and closed his eyes.

Ash scooted closer to the mythical pokemon, "I take that as a compliment. Can I see your wound?"

Mewtwo lets him check the wound. He can see the Heavy Graze at the side of his Stomach and a few scratches on his arm.

"Did you get poisoned?" Ash asked

"No" He answered, which made Ash sigh in relief.

Ash didn't show any hesitation to rip his clothes and covered his injury especially his stomach graze which again compelled Mewtwo to stare at him. Ash bit his lip and looked around until he saw small Pokémons peek from the Cave opening which makes Ash brighten.

"Hey, Do you mind helping me?" Ash asked.

They slowly come closer to Ash and look at him curiously. Ash takes out his Notebook and begins drawing berries in there letting the pokemon know what kind of berry they need to bring.

"Do you all understand?" Ash asked.

They immediately exited from the Cave in search of the berry, He bit his lip in worry, about Butterfree and he is also worried about Mewtwo who is laying in there. Ash can only stay quiet leaning at the Stonewall until the wild Pokémon brought the berry.

A chirped voice near him made Ash brighten up as he saw Butterfree fly toward him. Ash pats her head with his freehand.

"Good Job.." Ash said with a Smile

"Is he okay?" She asked full of worry looking at Mewtwo.

Ash gave her a sad smile, "He will be fine. Go with Arcanine. We will be fine here. The Little Pokemons are looking for the Berry"

Butterfree flew away and perched down next to Arcanine who was laying on the ground. Mewtwo was unable to say anything about all these, so he just stayed silent. Such a weird boy but he can feel a strong power inside of him.

"You can understand Pokemons?'"He asked telepathically

"Yes, I have Aura. Even though I still have a long way to go but speaking to pokemons is like a second nature" Ash informed him.

"What is your name?"Mewtwo asked out of curiosity.

"Ash Ketchum." He answered with a smile.

Mewtwo widened his eyes slightly on hearing the name, He can't believe that he met the 'Chosen One'. Speaking of time, 5 years had already passed since the last legendary meeting and that only happens once in a Hundred Years. Lord Arceus had informed them about the 'Chosen One', His Son in all but in Blood and the Prince of Pokemons. A Human who will become a guardian, a defender, a savior, a hero and more importantly someone who will become a bridge between legendary pokemons and the human world.

No wonder He could feel an immense power from the boy. He is Lord Arceus' son after all and for some reason he feels smug to other legendary pokemons that he met the 'Chosen One' first.

"I'm sorry." The boy's voice broke the silence in the cave.

"What for?" He asked

Ash looked at him, "Sorry for what those hunters did to you. I know that you are made by scientists using Mew's DNA. This world has both Bad and Good. Not all Humans are Bad."

"Why are you telling me that?'"He asked curiously.

"Well, I didn't want Pokemon to have hatred towards humans just because they met with bad people." Ash said with a shrug. "I need to bring you to Prof. Oak so that he could get you checked up. You have a heavy injury. Don't worry, he is like my grandfather. He can be believed."

As on cue, the pokemon brought the Berry to the Cave. Ash pats their Head in gratitude and lets Mewtwo eat the Berry to regain his power and heal his injury. But he is still worried.

After finishing eating the berries , Ash stands up from the ground along with helping Mewtwo to stand up. He can see that he got better.

"Can you make yourself Invincible?" Ash asked.

Mewtwo makes himself Invisible with Ash who grabs his hand in silence. He looks at the boy who walks without fear back into the ranch accompanied by Arcanine and Butterfree. The boy - Ash, his hands feel warm in his wrist.

Ash can feel Mewtwo's nervousness, the closer they get into the laboratory. Therefore he gives a comforting squeeze in his wrist and walks inside the laboratory calling Prof. Oak.

"What's wrong, Ash?" Prof. Oak asked as he walked down.

Ash pursed his lip in silence, "Can you make this secret? I found an injured pokemon but if there is someone out there who knows about his existence, he will be taken away by bad people. Can we go to the healing room?"

Prof. Oak gave him a serious look and nodded, "Follow me."

Ash still had Mewtwo's wrist in his hand until they arrived in the Healing Room. Prof. Oak closed the Curtains to give them some privacy.

"What Injured Pokemon?" Prof. Oak asked worriedly.

"This one." Ash nudged Mewtwo who then became Visible.

Prof. Oak widened his eyes and became pale like a ghost when he saw the legendary pokemon in front of him. The Strongest Psychic Pokemon is in front of him but when he saw the wound, he pushed away those thoughts.

"Hello, Mewtwo. I'm Prof. Oak. Don't worry, Can I heal you?" He asked kindly.

Ash gave a squeeze to Mewtwo's wrist again and this of course didn't get missed by the Professor who was still waiting patiently.

"Okay," Mewtwo said using telepathy which makes Prof. Oak flinch slightly bcoz he hasn't got used to it.

While Prof. Oak treated Mewtwo's injury, Ash stayed beside the Mythology Pokemon's bed in utter silence. He also didn't forget to mention what happened to the pokemon while the Professor bandaged his wounds. The professor heard everything and was looking grim.

"I see, I will tell police officer Jenny and the league about this." Prof. Oak said in a firm voice while tightening the Bandage," And done. Now Mewtwo, I need you to rest up clearly because your injury is heavy"

"Thank you, Professor" Mewtwo appreciated it.

"What are you gonna do after you get healed? Did you have somewhere to go?" Ash asked curiously.

"Not really. I always wander around'" Mewtwo answered.

Ash grinned, "Well then do you want to stay with me?"

"Do you want to catch me?'"He asked and Ash could hear a Defense in his voice, but he ignored it.

"No! That is your choice, I didn't want to forcely catch a pokemon!" Ash said firmly with a scowl and Mewtwo was taken back upon hearing it. "Anyway, I'm sure Mama will be happy to have someone to live with us!"

"I'll take that offer then..." He said

"Yeah! New Friends! New Family!" Ash cheered up with a huge grin.

Delia stares at the humanoid pokemon in front of her, she might not be a trainer but she is a breeder and she knew this pokemon and how dangerous it could be. But when she saw her son smiling brightly, she gently pats Mewtwo's head, who stiffened from the contact and that didn't get missed from the observant gaze of Ash and Delia.

"Welcome, Mewtwo. I'm Delia, Ash's Mother. I'm sure you must be hungry..." She said kindly.

After a few days of staying at Ash or the ' chosen one's ' house, Mewtwo could feel a warm feeling in his chest. Ash didn't catch him but their relationship became close to each other. He looks at the boy who had fallen asleep while reading a thick book about aura. He once asked Delia about Ash's aura but she just shakes her head.

"I also didn't know, no one in our family has aura, and that's why Ash is special. I also noticed that the Pokemons become protective of him, it's like Ash is their Beloved Prince"

"Are you worried?"He asked after a long silence.

Delia smiles at the legendary pokemon, "I am worried, of course. It's a Mother's Job to worry about their son, but I know that the pokemons will protect him. He is loved by all the pokemons whether legendary or not." At this she gave a secretive and amused smile, "That child took a liking to you, He looks up to you like a Big Brother."

Mewtwo, blinks from the memory and looks away from the window to the boy who had fallen asleep on his bedside wall. He uses psychic power to levitate the boy and fixes the blanket to cover his small body. He even Levitated the book back into the bookshelf.

XXXXX

A week has passed, Mewtwo has fully healed. Prof. Oak was able to heal all of his Injury. The whole time Ash stayed quiet and stood beside his mother. He knew that mewtwo might go away and he didn't like it.

Ash felt lonely without mewtwo at his side. Who was gonna stay beside him, to calm him down when there was thunder except his Mother? Who's gonna stay beside him when he gets bullied? Who's gonna stay to play with him? Who will tell him a story about the Mythical Pokemon? Who's gonna comfort him when he cries because got looked down upon? He knew he was not supposed to be selfish but he liked Mewtwo. It was just a week but he was close to him. He didn't want him to leave. Half of him wanted to let him go free but at the same time half of him didn't want his brother to go away.

"So, are you gonna go back to your own?" Prof. Oak asked.

Mewtwo only stays quiet, with Ash he clenches his hand tightly, he knows that he is mature, he is never selfish, he is never greedy, he never wants anything. He knows how busy his mother is, in order to support him but just this time he wants to become selfish.

"No," Ash muttered

"Ash?" Delia asked looking down at her Son who clenches his hand with Unshed tears.

"No!" He said a bit louder, "I didn't want him to leave."

"Ash, What are you talking about!" Delia asked, a bit surprised.

It's the first time that her Son wanted something. She didn't remember when Ash became selfish, She looked at Mewtwo who stared at Ash in silence. Delia didn't remember when Ash cried except for a baby, of course.

"Ash!" Delia shouted as she saw Ash running outside from the checking room. "Oh dear."

"It's okay, leave him to me!" Mewtwo said to them.

He disappears leaving Delia and Prof. Oak alone in the checking room. Prof. Oak hummed in silence.

"I think I need to find a pokeball for him." Prof. Oak commented amused.

Ash wiped out the tear from his eyes with his sleeve. He realized that he had come to his favorite place where he could see the ranch from the hill. He stiffens when he senses the strong presence beside him but then Ash relaxes as it is the same strong presence that can protect him from the storm.

"You ran away before you even heard my answer.." Mewtwo said, breaking the silence.

Mewtwo sighed when Ash stayed quiet. He sniffled, folded his knee in his chest and looked away from Mewtwo.

'Stubborn' he thought amused, Mewtwo sat beside the boy sighing. "In my whole life, I have been a wanderer, I have no home, a lot wanted me to be captured because I'm a legendary pokemon, the strongest psychic in the world. I felt lonely until you saved me. You showed me the kindness in this world, gave me delectable food, provided me a place to call home."

"..."

Ash still stayed silent but he was paying attention to what Mewtwo was saying to him.

"It's not only you who can feel the connection, Ash.." Mewtwo said. Ash took a sharp breath upon hearing this. "I know you are clever, no, genius, a prodigy. I saw how you read a book that was difficult for children of your age. I admired your forgiveness and your pure heart."

"...I know you were surprised when you heard my name, why?" Ash asked.

"Clever question, you are popular among pokemons, Ash. You are the 'Chosen One,Prince of Pokemons and Son of Lord Arceus all but in Blood.' " Mewtwo drops the bomb, Ash widens his eyes and snaps at the Mythology Pokemons who have a serious look. "Did you not feel weird that you can talk to Pokemon?"

Ash was at a loss of words and stared at the distance remembering about his aura power and about his natural use of aura to communicate with pokemon, Overprotective Pokemons. He exhaled, now everything made sense to him.

"... I see" Ash muttered

"Did you regret knowing about it?" He asked.

Ash closed his eyes, took a deep breath and exhaled, "Nonsense! I prefer to know an ugly truth than a pretty lie! Nothing has changed! If there are pokemons or people who need help, I will help them, I can not leave them alone. Humans are also the same..."

'Just like Lord Arceus said, such a pure heart kid..' He thought and patted his raven hair which made it stand up, "Let's go home."

"..Home.." Ash looked wide eyed towards Mewtwo who has an amused smirk.

"Do you think I left you alone?" He asked Ash and Ash was pretty sure that if he has an eyebrow he must be raising one of them right now. "Come on, Delia must be worried..."

Ash wipes his tears away and gives a pleasant smile. He grabs one of Mewtwo's fingers in his little hand. It reminds Mewtwo of his 4th day when Ash got too excited and got lost in the forest until he found him sobbing and lunged into his chest in relief.

'Little Brother, huh...' Mewtwo thought , An affectionate smile came to his face,' I don't hate it.' he said to himself before teleporting them back.
