Okay this is when things are gonna start going a little all over the place, but i am gonna try to follow volumes 1-2, with the inclusion of a few changes, then completely change things up to volume 3. But anywho, enjoy this chapter.
Blake couldn't believe her eyes. She looked around and saw tremendous views all over in the sunlight.
TO EASE CONFUSION, I DECIDED THAT BOTH KANTO AND JOHTO ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PLANET.
She turned to Ash and she saw Chandelure right in front of Ash in a cave nearby with Pikachu in his lap keeping warm. Feeling cold from being outside and not having a coat, she rush towards them and sat next to Ash.
"Ash, I think you deserve an explanation as to why I hid my Faunus nature from the rest of my Team." Blake began.
Ash looked over to her and said, "If it's too much for you talk about, you really don't have to."
"No, I have to tell you. But please, don't think of me as someone else when I tell you this." She insisted. Ash nodded from her statement. She took a deep breath and began to talk.
"I was once a member of the White Fang. I've been a part of it most of my life. You could say that I was born into it. I was usually up in the front with the peaceful protesters of the group. Me, my family, my old friend Adam, all of us were treated as the low class labor, despite us having peace and equality between humans and Faunus's. You already know that our old leader stepped down and a new one took over. There was more than what Ozpin told you that he didn't share with you. We began raiding Dust shops, infiltrating Dust shipments trains, and of course, killing off others that showed no respect to us. And the scary part was, it was working. So, I left the White Fang as a criminal in plain sight with the help of a little black bow." She finished explaining as she twitched her cat ears under her bow.
Ash gasped a bit and his eyes widen from what she told him. Pikachu looked up to her with fright of what she went through. Ash sensed that she was beginning to regret all of that and the sadness from before gotten worst, practically becoming uncontrollable, as more tears started to pour out.
"Blake, I'm so sorry about what happened. And to think…" Ash began as he looked down.
"Ash, I really appreciate of what you have done for me today. But now….I really have no idea what to do right now." Blake said as she started to cry more.
"That you were the first Faunus friend that I made and I never showed any appreciation for you." Ash finished with a smile.
Blake gasped and looked over at the Keyblade Guardian, who was still smiling at her.
"Well, I guess better late than never right? Come here." He offered as he opened his arms for her.
"Ash!" Blake cried as she accepted his offer. She threw her arms around his chest and began to cry into his jacket. Ash held her tight and started caressing her back. Pikachu jumped onto Blake's shoulder and started rubbing his head on hers to help Ash calm her down.
After about a minute, Blake let go of him and decided to do something. She scooted closer to Ash and leaned her head onto his shoulder. As if this didn't surprise Ash enough, especially when he started blushing, he began to hear Blake purring.
"Do you mind if I stay like this for a bit?" She asked before purring again.
"Whatever makes you feel better Blake." Ash said as he wrapped his arm around her. She smiled and began to close her eyes as she began to sleep on his shoulder. Ash began sensing the same feeling of protection from her from the day of his initiation.
'Maybe I was right from before. Could she really be…..in love?' Ash thought to himself as he looked at Blake.
"Pika Pika." Pikachu spoke as he saw his trainer trying to adjust to the situation.
Meanwhile back at Vale, the rest of Team RWBY was out looking for Blake the next day.
"Where is she? She's been missing for too long." Ruby said as she constantly looking around for Blake.
"You know who would help? The police." Weiss stated.
Ruby and Yang turned towards her and glared daggers at her. "Really? Not really helping here." Yang said as she put her hand on her hips.
"Just saying. Maybe Ash could help, but then again he too has disappeared." Weiss said.
This caught Ruby and Yang's attention. "Now that you mention it, I have noticed that. Maybe we should look around for him as well." Yang said.
"And hopefully Blake is with him." Ruby thought out loud.
"I think we should hear Blake's side of the story as to why she left after telling us that she was once a member of the White Fang." Yang said as they continued walking.
"And when we hear it, I think you will all see that I was right all along." Weiss sated.
"And I think Weiss's hair looks wonderful today." A girl's voice spoke.
"GAH! PENNY WHERE DID YOU COME FROM!?" Ruby asked as she jumped from the shock. They all turned around and saw a girl to whom they met a few weeks ago while everyone from the other kingdoms were arriving with orange hair with bright green eyes starring right back at them.
"Hey guys. So what are you up to?" She asked.
"We're looking for our friend Blake." Yang answered.
"Oh you mean the Faunus girl." Penny stated. This shocked the three of them that she knew of such.
"How do you know that?" Ruby asked as she stepped forward towards her.
"Uh, the cat ears." Penny said as she pointed to her bow on the back of her head.
"What cat ears? She wears a…..bow." Yang slowly began to piece together the puzzle.
There was a slight moment of an awkward silence as a tumble weed blew right passed them.
"She does like Magikarp a lot." Ruby whispered to Yang.
Back on Mt. Silver as the sun began to rise, Ash and Blake were finally calming down from the events that happened earlier that day.
"I think I'm ready to go back to Vale now." Blake said as she walked out of the cave a couple hours later. Ash walked out close behind with a smile.
"Alright, step back." Ash said as he summoned Divine Elemental and aimed it forward. Blake got behind him as he fired a beam from the Keyblade and a new portal appeared.
"Come on, let's go." Ash said as he held out his hand for hers. Blake took it and they walked through the portal. A new portal appeared at a docking area in Vale. It was night time. Upon exiting, they looked down from a building and saw movements from the port.
"Get down." Blake told Ash as she forced him to keep his head down to prevent being seen. Upon doing so, Ash put up his hood and Pikachu got off of Ash was on his other side looking down as well.
"Who are they?" Ash whispered.
"The White Fang. They are the ones that were raiding all of those Dust shops. What are they doing out here?" Blake wondered.
Before Ash could think of an answer, a powerful wind blew. It came from a paladin turbine. They looked up and saw two paladins landing on the docks. They both opened and more members of the White Fang came walking out.
"HEY, WHATS THE HOLD UP!?" A voice came from one of the paladins. A man in a white suit with a feather in his hat holding a cane walked out.
"We are not exactly the most inconspicuous bunch of thieves at the moment so, why don't you animals pick up the pace." He ordered them as he waved his cane at them.
Ash and Blake's eyes widen. They both were expecting a Faunus to rule them, but instead it was a human. Ash activated his aura vision. He saw mostly red with a hint of yellow.
"Why are they working for a human? Something's not right here. I need to get in close and find out more." Ash said before standing up.
"Not on your own. I know these guys so follow my lead." Blake said before jumping down the building with Ash close behind. They went in between the crates to get a closer look.
"Let's move it. If you all spend half as much time working on this than you do looking for that little punk with the Keyblade, then we wouldn't be behind schedule." The man spoke to them.
Ash's heart skipped a beat. How did they know he existed out here? Even Blake was curious.
"Stay here. I'll get to the bottom of this." Blake said before running towards the man with her katana out.
"Blake, WAIT!" Ash shouted. But it was too late; she already reached the man and put her sword to his throat.
"What the? Of for the-" The man began.
"NOBODY MOVE! BROTHERS OF THE WHITE FANG! WHAT ARE YOU AIDING THIS SCUM!" Blake shouted out to his goons while taking off her bow. They all began lowering their weapons at the sight of her ears.
Ash tried to get in closer to hear more of what's going on. He was able to get about ten feet closer until more paladins arrived. He eyed the paladins. Pikachu was looking around as well.
"PIKA PI!" Pikachu shouted to him as he pointed towards the others. He saw the man aim his cane at her feet.
"BLAKE, LOOK OUT!" Ash shouted. Everyone eyed at Ash with his hood up and Pikachu on his shoulder. The man pulled a trigger and fired a flare from his cane. A powerful explosion erupted and a giant smoke cloud rose to the sky. Blake was sent flying and fell unconscious from the blast.
Meanwhile nearby, Ruby and Penny turned and saw the smoke cloud.
"Oh no." Ruby whispered.
Back at the dock, the man starred at Ash.
"Look black, unless you want to get involved with the White Fang and yours truly, Roman Torchwick, then I highly suggest you leave now!" He yelled as he aimed his cane at Ash.
Ash chuckled a bit. "You really think that your little walking stick is intimidating. Try this on for size." Ash growled as he raised his hand and summoned Divine Elemental. Everyone starred in shock at this.
"Oookaaayyy. ALL UNITS, FORGET THE KITTY CAT! CONCENTRATE ON THE KEYBLADE WEILDER!" Roman shouted in a mic on his jacket.
Ash growled as he grabbed his Poke Balls and sent out everyone. "Pikachu, Lucario, get Blake out of here. The rest of you, GET THEM!" Ash ordered. Pikachu and Lucario jumped over the crates to get to Blake. Ash charged forward towards Roman and their weapons clashed.
Lucario looked down and Blake and sensed that she was alive, but knocked out. He picked her up and took her to the far end of the dock and laid her down at a warehouse for safekeeping.
Ash and Roman continued to fight and Ash's Pokemon were taking care of the grunts of the White Fang by themselves.
"HEY!" A girl's voiced screamed out. Ash and Roman looked up and saw Ruby twirling her Crescent Rose and looked at Roman with rage. Penny walked up behind her and did the same.
"OH HELLO RED! ISN'T IT PAST YOUR BEDTIME?!" Roman mocked as he aimed his cane at Ruby. Ruby called her Charizard and Penny sent out a Skarmory.
Penny's Skarmory LVL 87 Steel/Flying Sturdy
Steel Wing Automize Agility Air Cutter
Roman fired a shot at Ruby, but Charizard took the hit. It roared loudly from the attack.
"Okay Charizard, let's go help Ash" Ruby said as she climbed onto its back.
"Let's do the same Skarmory." Penny said as she did the same.
Ash saw the two come in and began taking care of more grunts that are coming in. He and Torchwick continued their fight. The fight continued for about ten minutes until Roman was starting to get exhausted as he began to breathe hard.
"You are tired Roman. Surrender now or you will regret it." Ash told him as he aimed his Keyblade at him. Roman chuckled a bit.
"As if, NOW!" Roman shouted into the mic. Ash sensed reinforcements coming in in armed paladins.
"GUYS! INCOMING!" Ash shouted to his Pokemon. All of them turned to see the paladins.
"BLAST THEM OUT OF-"Ash began to say before a large green beam shot out from behind him. He saw Penny firing the beam from a group of swords that were spinning in circles in front of her. The paladins split in half and the crew abandoned ship and the parts fell into the ocean with a large splash.
"These kids just keep getting weirder." Roman said to himself.
Ash laughed a bit from that as he turned to Torchwick. "You were saying?" Ash asked as he resumed his position of aiming his Keyblade at him.
"NEO!" Roman shouted. Ash sensed a girl with heterochromia and hair design of Neapolitan ice cream from a paladin on the ground was running towards them. She had an umbrella with a built in sword in it.
"Do not attempt to interfere you BITCH!" Ash shouted as he swiped his Keyblade and an orange beam shot out of it. The beam began to separate and formed around her. In an attempt to dodge it, the orange beam turned into chains and bind together, stopping her dead in her tracks.
Roman eyes widen in the situation he was in now. "Now where were we? Oh right, I believe you were surrendering." Ash said as Ruby, Blake, Penny and all of their Pokemon surrounded him. Roman face planted to the ground and punched it. Roman Torchwick has been defeated.
Ash bent down towards him and starred at him. "You know who I am?" Ash asked.
"I may not see your face, but you will be our new priority." Roman snarled as he looked up to him.
"Oh, so you don't know me?" Ash asked again. He then decided to pull his hood up, revealing his face.
"How about now?" Ash asked as his eyes began to turn blue. Roman's eyes widen from this. He opened his mouth, trying to say something, but fail from the shock.
"What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost. Or as Blake might say, 'What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?'" Ash joked. Blake giggled from that.
Before Ash could bind him, he returned his Pokemon. But then, he sensed more people coming their way. He turned around and saw something he didn't want to see. Hundreds of people, some members of news broadcasts, many police officers and the rest of Team RWBY arrived to the scene. Ash saw cameras aiming at him. He had been spotted by the wrong people.
"No…no…NOOOOO!" Ash shouted as he began to run. Unbeknownst to him, Pikachu fell off of his shoulder. All the police officers jumped down and most of them ran to Roman to cuff him, while a few went after Ash.
"ASH WAIT! COME ON PIKACHU!" Blake shouted as she and the others joined the officers to go after him. Pikachu climbed onto her shoulder as she was running. As they turned a corner, Ash already created a portal and ran right through. The portal closed less than a second afterwards. They all stopped from that.
"Ash…"Blake whispered as she just starred at the wall.
"Pika Pi." Pikachu spoke softly with a sad look.
Meanwhile on the very top of Mt. Silver, a portal opened and Ash ran out as more anger began to grow.
"rrrrrraaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Ash screamed like he had never done before as tears started pouring out of his eyes. Suddenly, his aura erupted from his body as it began to turn from blue to red. The echo from his scream was so intense that it was heard from the nearby towns and cities that saw Mt. Silver. People looked up at Mt. Silver and wondered what that was.
The next morning
"Reports of Roman Torchwick, the man that was behind the White Fang's movements and the robberies of Dust shops, has finally been captured. A large amount of Dust was left behind in crates, and there were multiple arrests at the Southwest Docks from the events last night in Vale. Henceforth, all the Dust shops will finally have a proper replenishment, and all shipments can finally proceed more smoothly. In other news today, everyone from the Kanto region can finally breathe a sigh of relief as Ash Ketchum, the runner up from the Kalos League Tournament and disappeared after the tragic event that happened days later 7 years ago, has been reported alive and responsible for the capture of Roman Torchwick. His whereabouts are currently unknown as he disappeared into a portal and has not been seen since. Back to you Cyril." The news reporter stated the next morning.
Ruby turned off the TV.
"I can't believe that he might be gone." Ruby said as she looked down.
"I know. I was actually starting to really like him more than a friend." Yang confessed as she leaned on a wall.
"Me too, especially since his actions last night will greatly help with my family business." Weiss said as she sat on her bunk.
Blake was outside sitting on a tree trunk looking out to the horizon while scratching Pikachu's back while he laid on her lap. "You miss him too, don't you?" She asked Pikachu.
"Pikachu." Pikachu said as he nodded.
Suddenly, a small sound echoed inside the room. A portal opened and Ash walked out as he was looking down and tears were pouring out of his eyes. He moved to a chair and continued to cry.
"ASH!" Ruby, Weiss and Yang screamed as they ran to him and hugged him. Blake and Pikachu looked inside and they indeed saw Ash.
"ASH! YOU'RE BACK!" Blake screamed happily as she jumped inside the window.
"PIKA PI!" Pikachu cheered as he joined the others.
Ash returned the hugs to the others as he began to shed more tears himself. Ash knew that one day he would be exposed to the rest of the world. But this was not the way he wanted it. What is going to happen to Ash now that the news of him being alive and well spreading like wildfire around the world? Find out more as the story continues.
Meanwhile
"GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" A woman screamed as flames shot from around her body, scorching everything in a 15 foot radius.
"That feather headed bastard ruined everything for us. Not to mention that we have lost so many of our men. And worst, the Keyblade wielder was responsible" The woman spat out in rage.
"Cinder, with all due respect, we have plenty of Dust to use now, and we know that this Ash fellow is still alive." Another woman spoke with emerald hair and red eyes.
"That doesn't matter Emerald. We needed the White Fang to help with the shipments of Dust. Looks like we may have to make do of what we have. Go find Mercury; it's time for things to get…SERIOUS!" Cinder growled as her eyes began to glow and flames began engulfing her hands.
And that's a rap. Okay I was having way too much fun with this story. It seems like every one of Team RWBY is showing some affection for Ashy boy now. I guess next time, there is gonna be A Battle for the Heart. Thanks for reading everyone, and of course I'm still accepting any future ideas for chapters from anyone as long as it's T rated. Hopefully I can get the next chapter up before the end of the year, but who knows? See you guys next chapter. TheDrock900 is signing out.
