A/N: This will be a short chapter. It's just my take on Ash's battle with Koga. Satoshi Tajiri owns Pokemon.

It was a beautiful day as Ash and Serena walked through Fuchsia City. He was trying to look for the gym. He asked a nearby old guy but due to not having any teeth, he had the directions written down that led him to what looked like a dojo next to the Pokémon Center. Ash then went to ask Nurse Joy if it really was the Fuchsia Gym. She said it was and he took her word for it. He and Serena entered to find it completely empty and full of booby traps. As they got through it all. They finally made it to where the battlefield was. A man in a navy ninja suit stood there smiling. "I'm impressed you've made it this far," he said to Ash and Serena as he stepped forward into his place on the battlefield. "I am Koga, Master of the Fuchsia Gym."

"I'm Ash of Pallet Town," Ash replied as he ripped off his tattered shirt and jacket. his jeans were worse for wear but he didn't wanna make Koga disgusted. "I'm here to earn a Soul Badge."

"Very well, it'll be a 2-on-2 battle. Choose your first Pokemon." Serena was about to jump forward but Ash grabbed her shoulder and shook his head as he held May's PokéBall. Serena nodded in agreement but knew Ash was playing it smart. She came to terms with the fact if Ash was in a tight spot, she was the one he could rely on the most. Ash sent out May. When May was about to roar, she saw Ash's shirtless chest out of the corner of her eye, she started drooling. Ash chuckled in response and she saw they were about to battle. She wiped her saliva away and got in a battle stance. Koga sent out Venomoth and May pretty much knocked him out immediately. Serena and May switched places and Serena barely broke a sweat as she knocked out Koga's Golbat. "Well done Ash. This Soul badge definitely belongs to you." Ash pinned it next to the Rainbow Badge he'd won from Erika. He healed up at the Pokémon Center and went to book a ferry to Cinnabar Island. He planned on rewarding the girls even though the gym battle was hardly one at all. The girls cleaned house sort of speak. However, sleep took him over as he laid on the bed.

A/N: Sorry it's real short. I'm having writer's bock atm so it's kinda hard to write a full chapter atm. You can tell me how much it sucked. *turns off the flame shield*
