Ch. 12 Back To The Past
"It had to be Ash, this will happen in the future. This is the future Ash, we are only living it and can't change it. It has to be, I'm sorry." His mom said, but in truth, they were both not only sad and shocked, but happy and relieved. Their sworn enemy was dead. "You were great honey, your dad would be proud." Ash turned to her and they stared silently into each other and knew what they were thinking. He nodded with a grin.
"She's right, I bet we'll make great doctors with Joy." Misty said to Brock.
"Yea, I know it." He replied, they shook hands.
"And you're a great trainer too Gary." Prof. Oak turned to his grandson. "I'll bet you can become even a gym leader."
"Yea, the new Viridian City Gym Leader." Gary grinned, not knowing he was predicting the very near future. "And I know I will be a great trainer too, because after all, I am the Umbreon Man." He put on all his dark cloths again. Everyone laughed and gasped and looked up when they saw a white glow. "The portal of the darkness."
"We won, we beat it." Prof. Oak said. "We all found ourselves and defeated its master. Now it's time to go back." Everyone jumped in, but Ash hesitated.
"Ash, come on." His mom reached out to him. Ash grinned and his confidence was restored. He grabbed her hand and they were all taken into the white light. In a flash, they went from the Viridian Gym to Starr Villa's center square.
"We're back." Ash said and gasped. Everyone looked at themselves.
"Yes we are." Gary grinned and hugged Umbreon. Pikachu and Ash hugged, so did Misty and Togapi.
"Well, we should go home." Prof. Oak said to Gary.
"Good by now." Mrs. Ketchum said to Ash. They waved and left.
"Thanks Ash, you did it!" Miles ran over, the mayor followed.
"You're a hero Ash, how can I thank you?" He asked.
"Just doing my job." Ash grinned. He gave him a thumbs up and winked. Misty and Brock grinned.
"I should get on my way too." Gary looked away and Ash turned to him.
"I guess I'll be seeing you in the leagues?" He asked and Gary looked back.
"You know it." He grinned. He and Ash shook hands and looked at each other, knowing that now they were closer friends than before and had earned each other's respect. "See you later guys." Gary said and soon he and Umbreon were out of sight.
"We should go too." Ash said to Miles and the mayor.
"Thanks again." Miles and his dad waved, all the town looked out from their windows and waved too.
"Sure, by guys!" Misty waved.
"Take care of yourselves!" Brock waved.
"If you ever get in trouble again, I'll be back to help you!" Ash grinned.
"Oh Ash, you really are a chosen one." Misty patted Ash's back.
"Yea well," Ash blushed. "Race ya!" Ash ran off.
"Hey, come back!" Misty laughed and ran after.
"Wait for me guys!" Brock tried to catch up.
And so, as our journey ends the way is should, the future looks bright for our friends as they run towards the sunset. But as far as the near future goes, only time will tell..
