Pokémon Journey:Adventures in Kalos
(A/N) Hey guys Paradox here and this is Chapter 18. So now the XY Series finally ends. I got to say when I heard about what happened between Ash and Serena,I nearly fell off my seat while eating a bowl of chicken soup. That hasn't been done since...I'm positive it was Alto Mare,plus it makes her the first female companion to kiss him,since it was off-screen we'll never truely know where she kissed him. It could be on the cheek,lips,or maybe even the nose. Hey guys...I don't wish to be a downer,but I'm just one of those people who practically thinks of every sanerio. I just hope that when the writers decided to do that sence,that they didn't do it just so that amourshippers will be satisfied for awhile so that they don't think about bring her back in the near future. If I offended anyone with this prediction I apologize in advance. But I bet you all want me to stop talk,let's get on with the show.

Chapter 18:A Pokévision of Wonders
The group resides in a Pokémon Center on Route 7 after leaving the Battle Chateau behind. Since it was nearly pack,they could only get one room with four beds,so Drake slept on the floor once again. In the morning the group got up,check their Pokémon with Nurse Joy,and had breakfast in the cafeteria. After they were done eating and Nurse Joy checked their Pokémon,the group then saw various trainers all seated in the main area. "Hey what do you think is happening?" Said Ash. Then the TV turn to a program of which a small figure is talking. "Welcome back to Pokévision live. Time for this week's #4 of our Top 10. Said the TV. It then introduced a video of a trainer and his Onix sliding down a snowy mountain. "
"Pokévision?" Ash asked. "Pokévision is way for trainers to introduce their Pokémon out to the world." Clemont said. "We now reach video #3." Said The TV which then showed a Psyduck staring away into the sunset. "I'm surprised I never heard of it." Said Drake. "Well,its only being ran by the Kalos Entertainment Network,so it really hasn't reach anywhere outside this region." Said Clemont. "Next is #2." The Tv then showed a video of Nurse Joy and her Wigglytuff running through a field. "It can also show the bond between Pokémon and Trainer,like this video does." Said Serena. "Trainers then upload their video to an online viewing site,so that other trainers can view them on their own time,and if it's good enough it can be displayed live,such as right now." Said Clemont. "And now here is this week video #1." It then displayed a young girl slightly older then Serena along with her Fennekin. "Whose that?" Drake asked. "That's Aria,I just knew she'd be number one." Said Bonnie. "After she and her Fennekin had several top ranked Pokévision appearances,they made their debut as a pop duo and became famous all over Kalos." Said Clemont. While watching Aria's video both Bonnie and Chespin couldn't help but admire Aria's Fennekin especially Chespin who went head over heels for it. "So cute." Said Bonnie.
"You know Bonnie that is a cute." Serena then grew worried over what Ash might say about Aria. "Fennekin" Ash finish his train of thought. Serena was then relieved that Ash meant Aria's Fennekin,and not Aria herself. Meanwhile Drake notice this and laughed to himself. "Heh,heh,nearly save yourself there Ash." Drake said to himself,knowing that the last thing Ash needed was to compliment another girl while having feelings for another. "I think Ash gets it." Said Bonnie. "So do I" Drake said. Meanwhile Clemont remembered seeing a camera rental service at the Pokémon Center the night before. "You know I think,you can rent the equipment use to make Pokévision videos here at the Pokémon Center." Serena then had a brainstorm and decided what she wanted. "That's brilliant,I decided to make my debut Pokévision video." Said Serena. "That seems like an excellent idea Serena. Let's head over to the Video Rental,it's just down the hall from here." Said Clemont. The group then then went over to the Video Rental,there a male attendant help them with all their equipment.
"Now once you're all done,come back here and we help edit it and create a soundtrack as here." Said the attendant. Everyone thanked for his assistance and was packing everyone. "You know guys,I always wanted to make a Pokévision video if I ever got a Pokémon." Said Serena,she always remembered all the Pokévision she always watched as a little girl. She was always dazzled by trainers and their Pokémon on their Journey together. Her mother meanwhile saw her daughter watching these videos,while she thought of helping Serena make one but she always thought she wasn't old enough,plus she thought that she wouldn't go through it due to her shyness.
Meanwhile Bonnie broke the peace. "Big bro,could I make one with Dedenne?" Bonnie asked. "But I think you forgot that Dedenne isn't your Pokémon." Clemont said. Bonnie then hung her head,but then quickly rose for another idea. "Alright then I guess I'll just make one to find a wife for you." Said Bonnie. "No you won't" both blond siblings then started arguing over this. Meanwhile Serena then turned to Ash and Drake. "Ash you think you can help me with mine?" Serena asked with hope. Unfortunately for her,Ash had already made plans to train. "Oh um...thing is that I was going to do some special training along with Drake to prepare for my battle with Grant." Ash said "really?" Serena asked sadly,she was really hoping that Ash would help with this,that this will give her the chance to be closer to him. "Yeah,if I don't find a way to maneuver around his Onix's Rock Tomb,I have no chance of winning." Ash said. Ash then looked towards Serena to see a sad look on her face. This caused Ash's heart to spilt,while he was still trying to figure things out,he would never do anything to make her unhappy. "Serena I'm so sorry. I hope you understand." Ash said to himself. Serena then understood why he needed to training,so that way he can be prepared. "Well maybe the rest of you can help me." Serena told the blond siblings. "Of course,I can be most help in Behind the Sences." Said Clemont,but Bonnie had other ideas. "No way, you're be most helpful if we make you a big star." Bonnie proposed. But Clemont immediately felt like a huge weight dropped on his head. "But I don't want to be a star." Clemont rejected. As they were about to leave the attendant then told them something. "Wait,before you leave,we also have an extensive wardrobe department for you to use." Said the attendant. "That'll be perfect thanks."
The group then went to the field where the sence was beautiful,perfect place for shooting. "Alright guys if you guys need anything,we'll be on the other side of the hill." Drake said. "Ok, have fun guys." Said Serena. Ash and Drake then went over to the next hill to train. Meanwhile Clemont,Bonnie,and Serena had already set all the equipment up. "Alright I think we should do Clemont's first." Said Bonnie. "What!? I told you I don't want to do it!" Clemont said "Come on Clemont you'll be fine." Said Serena. "Now you and Chespin and Bunnelby put these on." Bonnie then gave small blue dress shirts with red bow ties for the Pokémon while Clemont had a blue-green exquisite clothing,it really displays the unique fashion sence that is the Kalos Region. "Alright are you all set Clemont?" Serena asked. But Clemont only just stared at the camera,shaking in his shoes.
"Alright then, action." Serena then started rolling he camera. But Clemont was still shaking which made him extremely nervous. "Um-hel-hello there I-I'm -Cle-Clemont,and th-this-I-is." He shookly raised this hand. "Chespin!" It said while doing a close-up. "No!,No Cut." Bonnie said. "Chespin you're too far out front,and you Clemont,you need more energy in yourself. Your voice is getting lower and lower." She continued. But Clemont felt like he got head by a ton of brinks for this embarrassment. "I've already told you that I'm not good at this thing,so why can't we just do Serena's already?!" Bonnie was now at a lost,unlike herself,her brother really had no interest in doing this. "Hey don't you talk to for him Bonnie?" Serena said. "You mean speak for him?" Bonnie asked. "Yeah,and Clemont can lip everything you say." Serena proposed. "Yea,lets give it a try." The trio then spend half an hour doing Clemont's video with Bonnie speaking his lines. Clemont then finally sat down,finally relived that he's done. "Oh,I can't stand this kind of video." Clemont said while trying to calm his nerves. "You really need to get over that." Said Bonnie,not believing his somewhat of a phobia.
"Now it's our turn Fennekin." Serena spoke. She then put a mini version of her top hat on Fennekin. "Wow you guys are so cute together." Said Bonnie. Serena just smile at the little girl's compliment. "Well,first let's take a shot of Fennekin and me running through the field." Said Serena. "Seems like a good start." Said Bonnie. Clemont then readjust his glasses. "It looks like that's my cue. The future is now thanks to science CLEMONTIC GEAR on. I thought we'd encounter a situation like this one. Presenting the PokéStar Shooter." Clemont presented a three-leg robot with a mic on one one and presenter on the other. On the face was a camera lens that can shoot variety of shots. "PokeStar Shooter?" Serena thought how this thing can help. "Boring." Said Bonnie,since her brother picked another boring name for the thing. Clemont presented that It can shoot close up,far wide shots,and even high and low angles. Clemont was especially proud that it can shoot at a higher quality as high as PokéStar Studios,the movie capital of all things production.
"Well,I guess Science is amazing just like Ash says." Said Serena. There the robot then took position with Clemont holding the controller. "Ok we're all set/Fena." Both Serena and Fennekin got ready. "Alright Action." Clemont then press record on the controller,and Serena and Fennekin then started running through the field,having a good time. Then all the sudden the robot then started running towards Serena and Fennekin. "Uh Clemont?" Serena said with some concern. "Wait hang on." Clemont then tried to control the robot,then the controller short-circuits and Clemont realizes there nothing more he can do. "Quickly run as fast as you can." Clemont yelled. Serena and Fennekin then tried to run away from it,not believing that something like this could happen to them.
Meanwhile over the hill Ash and Drake were training for Ash's Gym Battle against Grant. On this occasion Drake called Professor Oak earlier and ask if he could have his Rhydon for the day. The Professor of course was much obliged to help and Drake was glad to see his old friend. He remembered how Rhydon managed to win one last battle that put Drake in Top 16 when he competed in the Indigo League. "Alright remember guys if we want to counter Onix,we need a lot of speed. Pikachu you can use Quick Attack,and Froakie's and Fletchling's Double Team can make a difficultly to land a hit successfully." Ash's Pokémon nodded and resume their training. "Alright remember you guys. There's several ways around Rock Tomb. The Two most simple ways are advantage or maneuver, these tactics can be just as successful as the team who can coronate them." Said Drake standing on the other side. Ash and his Pokémon nodded and resumed when suddenly they heard screaming. Ash immediately recognized the voice as it was Serena's and Ash tried to find the source and found out she was been chased by a robot,Ash figure the robot from Clemont and assumed that is all part of the video. Ash then took a deep breath as he relax,knowing that there's no trouble. Worst case was some robot was trying to kidnap her,but Ash immediately shrugged that thought out.
"Looks like another one of Clemont's inventions." Said Drake. "That's what I thought too. Science is so amazing." Said Ash. Serena somehow managed to hear Ash. "No! It's not amazing!" She said while trying to get away. "My device is out of control!" Said Clemont "Guys do something!" Said Bonnie. "I got this Drake, Pikachu aim at the robot and use Electro Ball." Pikachu then jumped and fired a ball of electricity at the robot with presise aim,destroying it. Unfortunately Serena and Fennekin were in the blast and then when the smoke dispersed,the two were completely covered in black soot from head to toe. "Now look that us,we're completely cover in black soot!" Serena said with Fennekin angrier then Mankey on a rampage. "But I thought you needed help." Ash said. Fennekin was just too angry,and fired an Ember attack at Ash and Drake. Pikachu managed to dodge it,and Drake bended his upper body backwards for the Ember to fly by,but Ash on the other hand hasn't so lucky,and got hit. "Ohhh,you didn't have to do that." Ash said covered in soot and falling over. "Um if you remember Fennekin prefers to keep clean." Serena said. "You know this might be a good time for a wardrobe change." Bonnie suggested. "That's a great idea Bonnie,I'll be right back." Serena said then left to change clothes along with Fennekin.
Meanwhile Bonnie noticed Clemont mourning over his destroyed creation. "Esshh,get over it Clemont,you look ridiculous." Said Bonnie,looking over it. "Sorry about your invention Clemont." Ash apologized. "It's ok I suppose,it did stop though." Clemont said then went over to tinker in his bag along with Bonnie. Meanwhile Ash and Drake were left alone until Serena came back. "So...you had it?" Drake said wondering about his brother's actions. "It was the only thing I thought of and no,I didn't mean to blow her and Fennekin up." Ash said. "Whatever you say,just talk to her about it,hopefully she not mad at you." Said Drake "I'm sure she..isn't...mad..at..me?...yea you're right,I need to be sure." Said Ash not certain about his thoughts,he really hoped Serena wasn't mad about blow her up,Fennekin was and he got blasted by ball of fire.
After ten minutes Serena and Fennekin finally came back. "Here I am/kin!" Serena and Fennekin came back in matching outfits. Serena wore a pink short top that her belly was exposed,a short pink skirt that went just below her hips,on the back was a Fennekin tail,pink wristbands,Fennekin ears with a pink bow in the middle,and Fennekin boots. Fennekin just wore a pink choker,and a pink ribbon on her head. Everyone was dazzled by the two's new looked. "See how the Fennekin's ears and tail give such charm to this outfit." Said Serena "So cute," said Bonnie "I agree with Bonnie." Said Clemont. "It's really looks good on her,right Ash?" Drake said. Ash meanwhile wasn't listening,instead his eyes were only focused on what's in front of him. Unlike everyone else,he showed no response,emotion,instead he just stared. "My Arceus,She looks so beautiful. The ears really bring her eyes out more. Her top really brings out more of her chest,And her skirt really brings her curv-wait a minute what am I doing? I shouldn't say things like that about Serena. Just cause she looks so cute in that,doesn't make it right to say things like that." Ash said to himself. Back then this never happened to him before. Not with his past friends,more specifically the female ones. But ever since reuniting with Serena he never felt the same again. This was practically the first time he ever start caring for a girl this way,especially using words like cute,gorgeous,beautiful to describe her.
There a question broke Ash out of his trance. "Hey Ash please help us with the video." Bonnie asked. But Ash thought he should train for his upcoming Gym Battle. "But we got Special Training to do." Ash said. "It's ok Ash I think we done enough training for today." Said Drake. "And Ash,sometimes taking a break can go a long way to help focus your training." Said Serena. Ash then thought of what she said and realized she was right. He then look at her ocean blue eyes and knew that he couldn't do turn her down a second time.
"You're right." Ash and said which made Serena and Bonnie happy. "For now on I'll be handing the Video camera." Said Clemont "I'll handle lights." Said Drake. The group then spent an hour working on that sence before deciding that the next sence at the Pokémon Center.
"Alright the next sence will be Serena and Fennekin baking treats together." Said Clemont. Then Serena and Fennekin came into the kitchen wearing matching floral patterned aprons. "We're ready and even Pikachu here has a camio role." She said. They then got ready and Clemont began recording. While stirring the batter Serena then asked Pikachu for powder sugar. Pikachu then carried it to Serena but it's small legs and weak strength made it stumble and fall down with the powder spreading all over. Pikachu was completely covered in powder sugar,but he wasn't the only one. Fennekin was enraged at getting dirty again and shot another Ember attack at him,but dodge it and wound up hitting Ash instead. "I really can't win can't I?" Said a very crispy Ash.
Serena then spent the next few minutes cleaning and brushing Fennekin clean. "And...all done." Serena said. "Fennekin seems to feel much better now." Said Ash. "Yep,I take the time to properly take care of Fennekin's being because getting dirty is so upsetting." Said Serena. As a young woman she always tries to look good,and keeping clean. "I think you're a bit like that too Serena." Said Clemont. "Seem like Fennekin is really taking after you,proof of your bond between the both of you." Said Drake. Serena smiled and then decided to move on.
The group then moved to the next sence of which took place outside an old fancy building with Serena wearing a elegant pink ball gown. While shooting the sence Ash thought she couldn't look anymore beautiful,which made his heart flutter. Meanwhile someone was listening in on their video
"Pokévision huh?" James said. "It's where trainers can show the bonds between their Pokémon." Said Meowth. "No." said Jessie. Both James and Meowth then looked at her. "They doing it all wrong,they don't have the potential to show real beauty in front of the camera,only I can do that." Said Jessie. Meanwhile James and Meowth hung their heads,they never enjoy this side of Jessie. "Look forget about this and let's focus on Pikachu." Said Meowth. "And I think I have a plan." Said James as they head to the Pokémon Center.
As the group now heads back to the Pokémon Center,Serena thinks about how her video to turn out. When they head back,they head to the Video Rental to work on the video. "Hi we'd just finished working on the video." Said Serena. "Hey kids,but I'm sorry the editing machine is broken." Said the attendant. "It's broken,how?" Drake asked. "I wish I knew. I only left for a moment and when I came back,it was broken." Said the attendant. "Now how?" Said Bonnie. "I afraid you'll have to wait until I can fix the machine." The group nodded and went outside to see want can they do,there they saw three people offering their production services to people. They then walked in and met the three characters.
"Hello how can we help you" said the woman with a grin. "We were wondering if you can edit our Pokévision video and add a soundtrack." Serena asked. But the three looked to each other and agreed.
"No"
immediately the group looked at them in confusion. "We can't work with the video you shot,we'd need to shoot everything from scratch." They said then took Pikachu,Fennekin,and Dedenne away to the back to work. Immediately the group knew something was wrong and followed them. In the back room they only saw a cheap background and up above was Team Rocket's balloon with their Pokémon.
"Team Rocket." Everyone said. "Ha hello suckers!" Said Jessie. "Give back Fennekin." Said Serena. "Dedenne as well." Said Bonnie "And Pikachu." Said Ash. "We don't think so,but you can have this." James then threw a cube that released smoke. When then smoke disperse Team Rocket was gone. "They gone." Said Serena. "Fletchling come on out." Ash then released Fletchling to look for Team Rocket while the group catches up.
On a cliff side Team Rocket placed the captive Pokémon in a cave while they had alittle celebration unknown to them that Fletchling had followed them. "Here to catching Pikachu." Jessie raised her cup. "Here,here/Wob." Said the Three males. "Now that's settle lets work on a video of myself." Said Jessie. "Wha-but we only did that to trick the twerps." Said James. "I'm an actress and I must act immediately. So get up and let's begin on my Pokévision video now." All three males then felt glumped,feeling like slaves to this kind of treatment.
Meanwhile Pikachu and the other were trying to break free from their cage,but the glass prove to be durable. Eventually enough tackles were enough to make it crack and Fennekin finished it off with Hidden Power. Finally free all three Pokémon then made their way outside,where they saw rain at the opening and nowhere else. Pikachu and Dedenne then made their way through the muddy puddle,but Fennekin couldn't across since it was afraid to get dirty. Meowth then notice that Pikachu and the others have escaped,but before they could react,Ash and the others made it to their Pokémon.
"Pikachu/Dedenne" Ash and Bonnie hugged their Pokémon and turned to Team Rocket. "Wait where's Fennekin?" Drake asked. Pikachu then pointed across the puddle where Fennekin stood there. "What's wrong with Fennekin?" Clemont asked. "I think I know. Fennekin doesn't what to get dirty like I do." Said Serena. She then ran across the puddle to get to Fennekin,but was stopped by a Psybeam from above. "Don't think about Twerpette." Said James. "Ash let's give her some cover." Said Drake and then released Rhydon while Ash had Pikachu. James then had Inkay launched another Psybeam but Drake manage to have Rhydon block it using Hyper Beam. Serena managed to brace herself mid attack and kept going. Pumpkaboo then fired a Shadow Ball,but Pikachu canceled it with Thunderbolt,but the attack was awfully close to Serena causing her to fall into the water. Serena then looked at Fennekin still unable to even move. "It doesn't matter if I get dirty. Fennekin you protect me every single day,so this time it's my turn to protect you." Serena yelled to Fennekin. Fennekin then tried to comprehend it and knew that if her trainer was willing to plunge into the filth to save her,then she can do the same as well. Fennekin then ran through the mud to reach Serena and jumped into her arms.
"Fennekin!..are you ok?" Fennekin nodded and both shared a meaningful hug. Meanwhile Team Rocket noticed this and took a chance. "Such twerpish actions for a twerpette,Pumpkaboo use Frustration." Pumpkaboo then charged in full of anger at Serena and Fennekin,but Fennekin saw this and jumped and shot a stream of fire at Pumpkaboo,knocking it into Inkay and back at Team Rocket. "Now Ash." Drake then had Rhydon fired a Hyper Beam while Pikachu launched a powerful Thunderbolt. Both attacks collided and sent Team Rocket into the air.
"WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGIAN!" They said as they whistled through the sky. The group was then relieved now that's over with. Serena meanwhile was still thinking what was the move that Fennekin used. "Hey guys I think Fennekin learned a new move." She said. "From what I saw,I'd say she learned Flamethrower,to protect you." Said Drake. "That's so cool Fennekin,you just learned Flamethrower." Serena said then looked at her fur and then at her clothes. "I guess we both are a muddy mess." Serena said. "True but if you ask me,you both overcame your priorities for each other,that's something to be proud of" said Drake. "I agree." Ash said. Serena then smiled that their response. "Well we should head back to the Pokémon Center. After editing the video we could use a shower." Everyone laughed at her remark and walked back to the Pokémon Center.
After editing the video and cleaning up,everyone was ready to watch the video. After it played everyone applauded at such a masterpiece. "That was so cool." Said Bonnie. "I agree,such great work." Said Clemont. "I third with your comment." Said Drake. "I agree as well. Hey Ash what did you think?" Serena asked. Ash then thought of only one word to describe the whole thing
"Perfect"
Serena then blushed at his comment. Knowing that he liked it was enough to bring joy to her heart. The group then had dinner and got two rooms for the night,one for Drake and the other one for the others. As Drake got ready for bed Ash then came in. "Hey." Ash said. "What's up." Drake said. "Some day right?" Ash said. "Yep,definitely one to remember." Said Drake "so have you talked to Serena like I told you?" Drake asked. "Um-right...I still need to do that." Ash said feeling embarrassed. "Do that...heh you know when Serena was in that Fennekin costume. You really zone out right then." Drake chuckled. "Yea...I guess I was just noticing her in a new light,like you said." Said Ash. "Really? Cause I noticed you were staring at her in more then a new light. You were probably staring at her featu-"
"STOP!...Ok maybe when I saw her at that moment. I was completely mesmerized by how beautiful she'd looked." Ash confessed. "Heh...I never thought I'd see the day that your heart gets stolen. I'm only saying this because you never paid any attention at this kind of stuff whatsoever for the past six years." Said Drake "you're right...maybe I do have feelings for her." Said Ash "that's still not a straight answer." Said Drake. "Alright so if you about to be certain about this,I need you to tell me what you like about Serena." He continued. "...what's not to like? She's smart,funny,pretty,a heartwarming personality,and she's a great baker." Ash said. "And how does she make you feel?" Drake asked. "Well when she'd helped me in my Santalune Gym Battle,she made feel like I can do anything. With her upbringing attitude she can raise me higher. Even when I was down when I lost,she knew exactly what to say to me,which made me keep going. Heck...even when she's right next to me is enough to make me forgot what I'm so sad about. Even though she needs to know how to have more confidence in herself,I know that I can help her in anyway I can,because what I do know is that it's because I care about her,a lot." Ash said then had a complete realization of what he just said.
"Ok" Drake said "This only proves it." He Continued. "I know...because I just realized..I guess...I do..I do love her...I'm in love with Serena...I'm in love with my best friend Serena...I'm in love with my best friend Serena Yvonne." Ash kept repeating until he felt like he has loosing his balance. Drake saw this and gave him a shoulder to lean on. "O..k easy there big guy. I get it,you finally realized you're in love with your best friend and I'm happy for you." Drake said while Ash still kept on repeating. After taking a minute Ash pulled himself together. "Alright so you love her. Now what are you going to tell her." Said Drake "wait wha-,I can't tell her Drake. She may not even feel the same way about me,and the last thing I need is to lose my best friend due to this feeling." Ash said. Now that he knows what he feels,a ton of questions came to his mind. What does Serena think?,how will she react?,does she even feel the same way? Ash wondered about this,but he wasn't gonna poke around in it for someone who may not even like him much less go out with him. "Ash,I'm sure she feels the same way...look if you won't talk to her about it,then observed her." Said Drake
"what do you mean?"
"I mean watch what she does for you,listen to what she tells you,and notice something that she does when you do something for her." Drake said. Ash thought about this and if he notices sign that if Serena does feel the same,then maybe he can tell her how he feels. "Ok I'll try to lookout for any hints." Ash said. "Good...well I'm fried so I'm going to bed." Said Drake. "Alright see ya." Ash then headed for the door and went to his room. Inside Clemont and Bonnie were already asleep in their beds,but Serena's bed was empty. Ash looked around and noticed she was stargazing on the balcony,there he decided to accompany her.
"Hey." Said Ash standing at the doorway. "Ash!,I've been looking all over for you." Said Serena. "Oh I was just in Drake's room." Ash said. "Oh...well,guess I overreacted for nothing." Serena said. "Don't worry about it. If anything I'm happy that you were worry about me." Said Ash. Serena then blushed at his comment. "If anything I'm sorry for blowing you up this afternoon." Said Ash. "Oh,don't worry about it. If anything you saved me from that robot,so thank you." Serena thanked
"Anything for you,Serena." Ash smile and then felt his cheeks burn up. Serena then went into an even deeper blush,not believing what he just said. Anything for you,Serena" Serena kept repeating that moment. Ash said that there is nothing he won't do for her. Serena then yawned,and Ash noticed this and decided to tease her. "Someone's tired." He said. "Yea,I guess..I'm just gonna hit the hay." Serena said.
"Goodnight."
"Sweet Dreams Serena,Goodnight."
Serena once again blushed again at his comment. "Wow he really cares about me. I hope that one day,I'll have the strength to tell you how I feel,Ash." Serena said to herself before finally laying in her bed,unknown to her,Ash was thinking the exact same thing. Sometime later Ash couldn't sleep after waking up all the sudden. There he looked across from him to see his crush sleeping peacefully. While laying there Ash took note of this. "Man she looks so beautiful,even when she's asleep. I really hope she feels the same for me." Ash said to himself and was preparing to fall back to sleep when he heard something.
"Ash" said a very sleeping Serena. "Huh,guess she's dreaming about me." Ash whispered then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
And done. Well guys that's Chapter 18. Well now Ash knows how he feels,and hopes to find if Serena feels the same way. On to other things,I got to say when I wondered which part did Serena kissed Ash,people said it was on the lips hence why the kiss was off screen,I really couldn't believe it. And Based off some sources some think that Sun and Moon actually happened after Black and White before Ash went to Kalos,but I'm not sure if that's true,so I don't really know. My opinion and this is one possibility,is that the story is being told in a story,like a flashback that a grown up Ash is telling his child about...heh I wouldn't be surprised if that's how Sun and Moon ends when the time comes. So,so many possibilities,and theories,let's keep hoping for the best. Now XY is finally over,we say farewell to probably the best series in the show and that that in the ending showed that phase after Ash enters his house,shows that nothing will ever stay the same. Change is coming everyone,best be prepared. I've always thought of this and you guys are probably gonna think of me as some sort of schmuck or something,but amourshipping has always succeeded not cause of what the show and the writers presents to us,as viewers. It's always been alive since we as amourshippers keep it alive. But know this my fellow readers,that the things that we create for this community we be more important then ever. Take heart of this guys,because now things will take a new direction and we must now choose between what is right and what is best. Thanks so much reading,Like and Comment down below...now if you're excuse me I'll be taking a long nap. This is Paradox signing off,Goodbye...oh one last thing,this story managed to break over 5000 views,once again thanks so much for supporting this story,you guys are awesome...ok now goodbye.
