Hey guys!

Strong (Guy): Sorry we took so long but I have a good reason. I just had a reality check.

Kind (Girl): Meaning he went to the psychiatrist. Anyway… I'm not sure if we did right about this chapter since focus wasn't in when we wrote it.

Strong (Guy): Yes, I am changing certain parts of the canon with the chapters being written over a different point of view than the anime. It's not hard but takes time for us.

Disclaimer: We do not own Pokemon and Bleach or any anime character we might be using.


Chapter – 3

Mewtwo's P.O.V

I could still remember the first words that I ever thought of…

Who am I?

What am I?

A silly question to many… but to me and to a few, it was no laughing matter.

Bothered by such questions I was… no I let myself be fooled by humans even after acknowledging their threatening intent against me, as I was seen nothing but a valuable experiment.

Partners…

Standing as equals…

Created by humans to obey humans…

How the notion flared my anger, but such an experience led me on a path to find my true purpose and destiny.

I may've been created by humans but I will never be enslaved by humans. To be like those pokemons born with purpose only to serve humans, such despicable creatures.

Still… none of my questions has been answered only guesses and self proclaim thoughts.

And upon my return to the island where was I created, my purpose was still astray. I came to the conclusion that if I was to stand alone in this world, I will create others that will stand with me.

Eventually I started on the reconstruction of the lab that created me as well as other things I will need along the way.

Then he came…

A boy and his pokemon came to my island as if they were teleported.

I underestimated them, and eventually I lost because of my carelessness. His powers, a human to be exact had great advantage against my psychic abilities.

And in the moment of my defeat, I learned that the boy was in a way similar to me. He somewhat gives of the impression like I… I who was forcefully brought into this world as a being unique amongst peers.

"I didn't come here to catch you. Just because I battle you with my pokemon don't mean I'm a trainer. People need to get that."

The words he said to me still rebound inside my head as I stayed in the island for months. His mindset confused me for weeks.

I delayed my plans as the words of the strange boy bothered me so much. Asking myself why a being like him was trying so hard to live in a world that rejected those that were unordinary.

"…" While my thoughts were preoccupied, I was forcefully taken. I do not know how or when but the moment I blink my field of vision was changed from my lair to some place even I could not explained. It was as if I was lost in space.

There and there, I met a being that was many times powerful than myself. I tried to retaliate since I was taken by force but my powers were sealed by the being in the realm. I was helpless before the being and doubts of my creation of being the strongest pokemon began to surface in me.

The being proclaimed itself as the god of all pokemons Arceus and upon my rejection of his claim other powerful pokemons surrounded me, glaring down on me. The combined pressure was intense and it went to the point where I couldn't believe there were also other powerful pokemons like myself.

The reality hit me hard and then the pokemon that claimed to be their god explained that it needed my assistance.

I calm myself down and reply that if I were to comply by such words I asked it to answer the questions that have bothered me for too long.

"You'll eventually find your answers…"

In the end, it denied my answer and as such I did not have any reason to comply its request.

It didn't take long for the being to send me back to my island, but before it did. It asked that I atleast help… or assist a boy that might be in common with me than I thought I was.

The moment I returned to my island, I had time to gather my thoughts and then I was sent a vision of a boy I knew too well.

Without much thinking, I quickly flew off and upon reaching the region where the boy was. Though expected, I was appalled at what I saw.

My powers trembled as I watch a scene of the boy where he too was rejected by the world. Still I did no intervene with the mindset that this will teach the boy a lesson that this world rejected those that are different.

In the end, the results were not what I expected.

I descend down to the plane's explosion site and teleported the cinch body of the boy who would save even those that tried to harm him. Clearly I was disappointed on the boy, but nonetheless I was taken again to the strange space realm and this time the boy came too.

The being that called itself god of pokemon quickly puts the boy in a dome meant to heal.

I asked why if he was a god why not healed the boy within seconds.

"His existence is not part of this dimension; this is the best I can do."

Those next words peak my interest very much.

Due to my own curiosity I stayed and watch his health progress.

Fast forwarding time, I eventually went back to my island and this time I decided to move forward the plans I'd been delaying for too long, though with other sets of goals in mind.

Upon finishing the reconstruction of the lab and a place to act as my base, I finally scowered the Kanto region for strong trainers with strong pokemons.

There were indeed strong trainers in Kanto at a large scale but to pick those that over shadowed their peers I made a little test.

Disrupting the weathered around my island was not a hard action as it acted as the final test to see which of those insignificant humans might actually reach me.

A lot of things happened according to my plans and yet… a flaw managed to seep in.

"Why do you hold something that does not belong to you?"

I might've been calm and collected but the annoyance came. A boy… or rather a child started the retaliation by setting a flaw in plans which I knew were meaningless after meeting a being so powerful I had to acknowledge.

In any case, this boy holds something that does not belong to him and something I was very familiar with.

"Hey! Stop! My brother gave it to me!"

Using my powers I slowly took the necklace away from the child's grip and turned to the child at the mention of the word brother.

"Preposterous! This item belongs to someone the likes of you will never relate."

My powers subconsciously send the child flying and I did not saw it as a flaw in my focus as the words of the child was an incredible lie to me.

"Ash, get back!"

"Come on Ash! Let Mew handle it!"

Humans fear us for being different and yet this boy acts against it.

"…" I stare as the boy moves closer to me, limping if I were correct.

"Give… *huff* Give… it back."

Where were the brave words he spoke of? Now, to me he only appears as a simple ignorant stubborn child.

"Do you expect me to believe someone so weak is related to that person?" I raised him up.

"A child that believed but cannot support it?" My psychic powers started to suffocate him.

"…" Even at his situation he still resisted and tried to reach for the necklace floating, quiet the persistent human.

"No matter, I will take i-!"

*BOOM!*

The moment I reach out to grab the item, something I did not expect happened. It was as if the item rejected me.

I momentarily regained my composure as well as those around me.

I stared at the necklace that had an appearance of a strange ring like that of the Omni-potent being.

"Mew! Mew!"

"Your father's key? I see… it seems it really was indeed entrusted to this boy." The insufferable creature that I was cloned from answered my curiosity.

So, that being entrusted that to him and he entrusted it to this child… I wonder what makes this child so special.

"…" Pushing the matter aside, I rushed to the creature Mew and continued our battle and left the boy to fall clutching on to the item.

If showing that I was stronger than the original could spark even a semblance of my purpose, then so be it. Yet… those ideas seem less convincing after learning many things on the short time I walked in this world.

But I couldn't stop when my plans have already been enacted.

"Meww!"

"Enough!"

"Stop it!"

Our full psychic blast was interrupted by the same stubborn boy but at the expense of his own life.

The site I saw was confusing, a human so weak yet part of the world wanted to end our fight.

"You're over thinking silly."

"…" My eyes did not deceive me as I gazed upon someone I might've known smiling with a sad expression at me.

"Hey, Mewtwo."

"Ambertwo…"

At the moment, my mind almost gone blank upon seeing someone that was supposed to have passed on.

I remember this girl after I had achieved immense control of my mind to focus my abilities, a clone just like myself and the first to try to persuade me to love this world.

"You came back."

"I was never gone you know."

I do not understand why her presence calms me, had I acknowledge her unknowingly?

"If you were… why didn't you show yourself to me?"

"I tried… but you just were too busy rejecting everything and everyone around you."

"…"

I tried to touch her but my arm phase through her. I learned and she came to me, is that it?

"Look! Look! Mewtwo, remember what I told you before?"

"…" I saw what she meant; the tears of both pokemons and clones gathered to the dying boy, just like my own did for her back then.

"Just like how you felt sad and cared for me, there doing the same thing."

"If this was possible why weren't you revive?"

"You ask too many questions, if you keep doing like that you'll never enjoy life Mewtwo."

"I see…"

"See how happy they are?"

"…"

"Hey."

She slowly turned back to me with that expression I remembered.

"I have to go again…"

"…" I silently stared at her as she stood close to me.

"…and this time I don't think I can come back."

Her words did not felt right to me and I began to think less of what was around but her.

"I already know you care about me so please Mewtwo, don't cry."

She was able to touch me and yet I can't, how pathetic have I become to feel so annoyed.

"…"

"Everything will be alright now; you're not alone anymore."

"…"

"Goodbye Mewtwo."

"Goodbye."

"Mew~?"

"I see now…" My sight went back to the boy who had been saved by both sides of different origins and yet now… that view I had felt so different.

"I see that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant, learning it in a difficult way… it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are."

There I learnt something new and finally a purpose, I learn that I didn't create those other clones for battles. I created them as I felt alone…

This child, that boy and Ambertwo… I see now why they love life as it is.


Pallet Town (Normal P.O.V)

Daybreak already came for the peaceful town of many great trainers and others alike. You could see a lot of seasonal pokemons that passed by the town if anyone were to look up to the sky from time to time.

In this specific town, lots of memories were made especially for three kids that really looked up to a boy, a boy that came to their life out of nowhere and made a lot of exciting moments.

But moments like many don't last forever and this affect relationships and bonds, putting them into a test.

And now, the three kids pursed their own paths not together like they used to but moving at different routes.

"Oh my gosh…" A girl with brown hair that reached her shoulder blades looks up to a tree house she clearly knows very well.

"How long has it been since then? *huff*"

At times, the girl likes to mumble to herself when she feels like it.

She was a girl that passed off as a 10 year old, but she was more than just any normal girl.

"…" Climbing up to the tree house, the girl just sat on the edge of the worn down tree house with a small smile that could tell a lot of great stories about the place.

"…"

"Hey, Gary!" Moments before she sat, the girl had pulled out her cell and called one of her closest friends.

"Leaf? You're already at Pallet Town?"

"Yeah, and I just heard you lost to some girl in the league, pfft!"

"…."

"Sorry, sorry, you did start off your journey with a big claim about being a Pokemon master hehe…"

"Don't you have anything better to say than pour salt on my already down pride? Why are you calling now anyway?"

"…"

"Leaf?"

"I thought that when I got back, atleast one of my friends would've welcome me, you know." The girl's smile simmer down at the words she just spoke.

"*sigh* Leaf, we're not gonna be kids forever, so we all have to start off somewhere. Isn't it the reason why you left home to study as a Pokemon breeder?"

"Ichigo would've-!"

"He would've what?! *sigh* Why did you have to bring that up? He's gone Leaf, you and Ash need to get that straight."

"…"

*!* The girl bit her lips and frowns before hanging up with a quick press.

"You idiot…"

She wanted to talk more since it had been months since she saw her friends, she would've tried calling her other friend Ash but he didn't had any cell on like Gary. But the talk with Gary felt sour to her.

She wants to be optimist but Gary always has to shove a good dose of reality when he wasn't exactly doing anything like such either.

"I really missed hanging out like we used too…"

"…" Out of nowhere, her pokeball shook before the pokemon inside came out of its own.

"Ted, could you carry me back? I'm tired."

Her pokemon that was a Teddiursa now had evolved into an Ursarine during her time away from home. Without much word, the large pokemon placed the girl on its back before jumping down the tree house to continue on to her trainer's house.

She had came home with a smile and great expectation for good old time sake but now she just want to go to bed and sleep off the nasty feeling she had.


Kanto's league grounds

*thud!*

"That hurt!"

"Get up and battle me now!"

"What is wrong with you!?"

"Nothing! Just get up and battle!"

A boy with brown spiky hair glared down at a boy with black hair and a pikachu beside him. The down boy and pokemon were not happy with the pushy attitude.

"Well?"

"You!" The down boy quickly got up and grabbed the pushy jerk into a painful head-butt.

"!" Both boys groan down at the painful impact of their foreheads.

"Pika…"

"No Pikachu! I'll handle it."

The black hair boy stopped his pokemon from intervening and the mouse pokemon stopped from using any kind of electrical moves.

"tch!" The brown hair boy got up and glared with annoyances.

"So Gary, why did you pull me out in the middle of the night?" The raven hair boy asked with annoyance also written on his face. He missed dinner because of his so called childhood friend and got push off without any kind of explanation.

"I don't need to explain myself to a second rate trainer like you Ashyboy. Just get ready to battle me now!"

"Just tell me!"

Before Gary was able to pull out his poke-ball Ash dashed to his childhood friend only for both of them to be pushed off a slippery muddy slope.

"Just tell me!"

"Let go!"

Both boys tumble down the muddy slope like how they used to fight over some matters as kids.

This time there was no older brother figure to stop the two and it looks like either one won't budge off their goals.

"*huff* *huff*"

"*huff* *huff*"

The two boys were covered in dirt not to mention both lost a bit of stamina and yet they wouldn't take their glaring eyes off each other.

"What is it with you!?" Ash first shouted out as the dirt meant nothing to him and his only focus was the friend before him.

"Why do you always have to be such a jerk!? If this is about you're lost, then quit it! It wasn't my fault!"

"…" Gary gritted his teeth as if the words of his childhood friend struck a chord.

The brown hair boy's annoyances only lasted for a few seconds as his teeth slowly grin upon an idea relating to his childhood friend and childhood rival.

"Hey Ash, you remember what you said when we started our journey?"

"…" Ash did not like where his childhood friend was going.

"You wanna know what I think? You're never going to find him and you know why?!" Gary shouted angrily without caring even if he loses his cool, "Because Ichigo's dead! You, Leaf and Daisy are just delusion-!olf!"

"Shut up!"

A fist smashed on to the brown hair boy's cheek and then a fight outbreak between the two friends.

Yes, the two always argue which led to some bruises but not to the point where both hit with everything they got.

The two kept giving each other fist blows until Gary used Ash's own weight to slam him down to the muddy ground.

*!*

*!*

"Why are you always smiling like a goof!? That hopeful look always gets on my nerve!"

"!" Ash's eyes sudden glow blue for a second where he suddenly got a boost of energy to push his childhood friend off him.

"Is that what's really bugging you!"

*!* Ash quickly clamps down Gary and head butted his friend again to stop him from struggling.

"…"

"You're always quiet about what's in your head!"

"Shut up!"

"You never talk to any of us about things!"

"I said shut up!"

"We're friends, I would've listened! My big brother would've listened!"

"SHUT UP!"

Using ever little bit of energy he left Gary quickly pushed off his childhood friend with a loud shout.

"…"

Both stared at each other again, they really felt like opposites and yet one of them denied such fact with the action of trying to reach out to the other.

"…" Gary looked at the down boy and wondered why the hyper-active boy always never gives up even when impossibility stood in his way.

Inside, deep inside, Gary was jealous of his childhood friend for having such a fun filled life as well as a caring and attentive big brother. Don't get him, Daisy was in ever little bit a great older sibling but she and his grandfather were always too busy to spend time with him. Seeing his friend bonding with such an amazing person sometimes made me feel envy.

*grab!*

Ash pulled his childhood friend's collar and so did Gary. Both still glared at each other as if the fight might still continue.

"Stop you two!"

The boys were pulled apart Brock and Misty who came to the scene after Pikachu came running to them with a desperate tone.

"Let me go! I'll show this idiot what's what!"

"I'm supposed to be the stubborn one, not you!"

While Gary was pulled back by Brock, Ash on the other hand was pulled back by Richie and Misty.

"Ash stop! Where is this all coming from anyway?"

"You guys need to stop! You might get in trouble if any of the staffs sees this."

"Gary, you too need to stop. Aren't you two childhood friends?"

Right now, the words of three new arrivals meant nothing to the two. They were focus only one thing and it was to finish whatever they had started.

"Pikachu."

"Pika?"

"We're going to battle Gary."

"…"

"Ash, didn't you hear what we just said!?"

Ash eyes showed blue color for a second until he quickly broke off his friends hold surprising them.

"!" Gary too broke off Brock's hold and quickly grabbed his poke-ball.

"Blassttt!" His strongest and first pokemon came out rearing for anything.

"Pi-kha!" Pikachu on the other confidently stood before Ash with his cheeks pulsing out electrical charges.

"…"

"Guys, stop… I think we should let them."

They came to realize the problem had something to do that none of the three knew and so they just decided to watch the battle between two friends that knew each other since they came to this world.

"We're ending this Gary!"

"Just try Ashyboy! You never won against me! Not now, not ever!"

Their words were loud and this attracted some of the nearby trainers or people that came to the tournament.

"Pikachu!"

"Blastoise!"

"Thunderbolt/Hydro-pump!"

In the end, the battle came to a tie and yet neither side said anything to each other even after their pokemons fell down unconscious. Both trainers fell down after struggling to stay awake from the exhaustion and injuries they had inflicted on each other.

The last thing that came to their mind before they fell to sleep was the image of an orange hair teen looking at them with a tired smile.


And done!

Leaf won't be in the harem, she only has a limited time crush on Ichigo. Yep, learnt that when cousin Kind here used to have a short crush on someone way older when we were kids.

I know it's quite different from the anime but Ichigo really had that much impact on their lives that it really changed some stuffs.

Ash is still the goofy kid but a lot stronger as a trainer and more hopeful in dire situation.

Gary is still the jerk but a good friend that likes to play the cool guy that always hides his insecurities with smugness but eventually burst out at times.

Leaf is still Leaf, she's only a little bit quiet than usual since everything around her was changing too fast.

Anyway, see you guys later!
