"And that's pretty much the story.", Ash said. Everybody, except Brock, who still was in Pewter City, had listened to the story Ash told. "So, you are now, what do you call it again, a Super Saiyan 3?!", Misty yelled. "That's what I call it.", Ash said. "Shall I show you?". Everybody looked at him. Was he really going to show it? "Is that a good idea Ash? You still are weak.", Vegetto said. "Yeah, I guess so. Tomorrow then, deal?", Ash asked. "Sure. Maybe I can try it, to.", Vegetto said. "Never give up hope.", Delia said. "Is anybody hungry?". "Yeah, I am!", Ash said. "Give me thirty minutes, and you will have the best dinner you 've ever had.", Delia said. "I'm going outside for a walk. Be right back. Come on, Pikachu.", Ash said. "Mind if I join you?", Misty asked. "Not at all. Let's go.", Ash answered. And the three of them left the house, watched by Delia and Vegetto, smiling.
Ash, Misty and Pikachu walked around Pallet Town. "It's good that nothing more will happen. Vegetto said that he destroyed the laboratories. But I'll doubt that Giovanni will give up.", Ash said. "Well, at least we have someone to protect us, don't we?", Misty said. Ash smiled. "You can count on that.". But while they walked, a smoke bomb went off. "Not again.", Ash and Misty said. But it was true. Jessie, James and Meowth, who left TR HQ, had showed up again. "Well kids, this time we will have your Pikachu!", Jessie said. "They never give up, do they?", Ash said telepatically. "Nope, never. I'll stand back. And try not to overdo it, Ash.", Misty said. "Awww, allright. I'll try not to.", he said back. "Well, what are you waiting for? Give it to us now!", James said, and pulled out a strange looking weapon. "This thing fires a stun spore bomb, which will paralyze all three of you!". Ash just stood there, smiling. "I'll wipe that smile of that face of yours!", James said, and prepared to fire. At the same moment, Ash threw a energy ball in the barrel, causing the weapon to explode. The spore bomb detonated, and Jessie, James and Meowth were paralyzed. "Shit, looks like we're off again!", Jessie said. Ash threw a small energy blast in the ground, and sended all three of them flying. After that, Ash walked back to his friends. "I said you could count on me.", he said smiling. "I never doubted you.", Misty said. They holded and kissed eachother for a long moment, and then walked back home. And thus ends the story of the young boy who believed in his father, even after a very long time.
THE END
