Return of Destiny
By firehedgehog
Chapter Two
He could feel a new energy in the air, the part of him that was Destiny
told him that this energy was actually his own powers becoming more
powerful.
'How much more powerful must I become, will I loose my humanity if
this goes on' Ash thought sadly, he looked at the soft moonlight lighting the
night sky.
"Sorry Pikachu, but this time I must fight alone," Ash wispered softly
petting his sleeping pokemon companion, he sighed tears making his eyes
glitter in the dim light.
Now he concentrated a bit of his power and a golden aura formed
around his hands, touching pikachu he watched as he caused the yellow
pokemon fall into a deeper sleep.
"Goodbye my old friend," he wispered his tears finally falling to the
ground, then without looking back Ash vanished deeper into the forest.
"Pika pi," pikachu said in his sleep, a single tear slipped down his
furry cheek leaving a salty trail behind.
***
The border was nearing its breaking point, soon the unknown would
be free again... for eternity. It didn't bother them that Destiny would be
coming to trap or destroy them, they were sure that they were much
stronger.
[Destiny will surely die] the unknown said as one, no one could beat
them. The last time they had been trapped had been an accident, yes that
was it.
***
Delilah Ketchum sighed sadly tears in her eyes, in her hands was a
picture of her only child Ash at ten years old.... the same age he had
vanished.
"My baby, how I wish I could see you one more time... but for all I
know your probably dead," she cried tears flowing down her cheeks, then to
surprise she heard a soft knock at the door... which sounded familliar for
some reason.
"Who could be at the door this late at night," she said, with a sigh she
put the picture down and walked to the door.
"Hello?" she asked as she opened the door, that is after she turned on
the outside light.
"Oh my," she breathed as she saw who was on the other side of the
door, she fainted but never felt the gentle hands that caught her.
***
Ash smiled as he looked apon the sleeping face of his mother, he
gently touched her face which seemed to be untouched by time. He frowned
when he noticed a few grey hairs in her deep brown hair, it hurt him to
know that while he would look the same age as now forever... his mother
would someday die of old age.
"I'm so sorry that it took such a long time to come see you mother,"
Ash wispered to her sleeping form, he sighed and began to carry her to her
bedroom. Gently he placed her on her queen sized bed, then with feather
light touch he tucked her in.
"Sleep well," he wispered with a smile, he leaned down and kissed her
on her forehead. In her sleep his mother smiled and rolled over slightly, a
single tear rolled down her heart shaped face.
***
Delilah woke up and gave a sigh, she had dreamed that Ash had
finally come home... like so many times. She sat up and hugged herself, she
knew that she would probably never find out what happened to Ash... but if
she just kept on hoping maby something would happen.
It was then that she smell food cooking, wondering who could be
cooking and be in her home she quietly slipped through the house an iron
wrench in her hand.
Coming to the kitchen she slipped a glimps in, she could see Mr. Mime
cleaning and a long dark haired stranger cooking at her 'precious' oven.
"Morning," the stranger suddenly said without even turning around,
startled she dropped the item she had chosen to use as a weapon.
"Ash," she wispered tears coming to her eyes, as she watched (as if in
slow motion) the stranger turned around. Delilah found herself looking in a
strange yet very familliar face that was much more mature then it had been
when it was ten.
"Mother, I'm sorry I couldn't get back any earlier," Ash wispered in a
soft voice his eyes clouded by sadness, unable to restrain herself Delilah
leapt towards her son and wrapped him in a hug.
"Don't ever ever do that again Ash," she wispered as they both cried,
finally they seperated and she stared into his eyes which had changed so
much.
{Tell him what happened this day when the power of Destiny shows
its mark} the memory of those words echoed in her mind, she gave a silent
sigh knowing that it was time to tell him... the power of Destiny she could see
in his eyes.
"Ash, there is something I need to tell you.... it's about your past," she
wispered and she quickly led him to the living room, they sat on the couch in
silence for a few minutes and then she began.
~Flashback~
A younge woman walked the forests between the Kanto and the Johto
area, she was around twenty with dark brown hair and deep brown eyes.
There was a feeling of sadness about her, it was a sadness that felt as
if you could almost touch it. She had just lost her only child and husband to
an accident, she was alone in the world now.
It was then that a bright flash of gold and silver light covered the
area, she didn't have time to cover her eyes... yet she found that it didn't not
hhurt her eyes in anyway.
"What was that!" she said in a startled voice as the light faded, looking
around she gasped when she saw that there was a strange fog that
resembled the for surrounding a small clearing just ahead.
"I have to go there," she wispered and it was true, it felt as if
something was pulling her there... like a magnatized magnet. She quickly
walked through the fog to find herself in a sunlit clearing, it was then that
she spotted it.
It was a strange metal basket with a strange language written over it,
it was of no language she reaconized (Unknown to her writing like that
would be discovered in pokenopolis years in the future). A high pitched cry
came from the basket, she ran to it and looked in the basket.
Inside was a small baby with very short slightly spiky dark hair and
warm brown eyes, he was covered in a beautiful blanket with designs of
ledgendary pokemon on it.
"It's okay little one, i'll take care of you," she wispered to the baby and
she picked him up, and like magic he stopped crying and giggled up at her.
You have been chosen to raise the chosen one, raise him well human
a beautiful voice said, startled Delilah looked around yet saw no one. In her
arms the baby seemed to reach out to something invisible, she gave a
startled gasp as she felt a strang power brush by her.
"Who are you, and what do you mean?" she asked the voice, the voice
gave a small chuckle and answered her.
He is the chosen one of this dimention child, he has a great destiny
ahead and you have the heart he needs to be raised by. It is your destiny to
raise him to be the chosen one, guardian and destiny the voice answered
her, her eyes widened.
"But how can I raise him to be someone so great, I don't even know
his name?" she asked, the voice chuckled slightly.
Raise him like all children and he will be the greatest of all hearts, his
name is Satoshi but he will be known in this life as Ash and later buy other
names the voice said, she blinked when she noticed the strange fog was
fading away from around the clearing.
"How will I explain this to him?" she asked, she didn't want to sound
crazy to the child in the future.
Tell him what happened this day when the power of Destiny shows
its mark the voice answered, then the fog was gone and so was the metal
basket she had found the baby in.
"Yes Ash fits you well," she wispered looking at the baby, he snuggled
closer to her and fell asleep. Delilah knew that she had been given another
chance to raise a family, another chance to love.
~End Flashback~
Delilah looked at Ash as she finished telling him what had happened,
she looked at the floor knowing that now that she had told him she would
loose him.
"Your still my mother even if it is not by blood mom, now I must tell
you everything that has happened in my life," he said tears falling down her
face, she felt joy rise in her heart nowing that she wasn't loosing him.
Then he told her what had happened that day(Check the new rocket
member) and what happened since, it was along day and night seemed to
come faster then before.
***
Pikachu ran through a forest, he was tired but he knew that he
couldn't rest just yet. He knew why Ash had left and he knew that he had to
rejoin with his best friend, he didn't know why but his heart seemed to be
like a compass leading to Ash.
'Ash wait for me, I'm not letting you go alone to the final battle alone...
I was with you from the beginning and I will be in the end' Pikachu thought,
finally he stopped as he came to the top of a hill.
There in the distance under the glow of the setting sun was Pallot
town, and also where Ash was... and where they would rejoin.
TBC
Yeah I know its a sappy chapter isn't it, but doesn't that flashback make you
wonder where Ash truly came from... I gave you enough clues in the past in
this chapter. Anyway I still have chapters to go, plus I still have two
openings left for two other people characters. Next chapter is about a team
rocket member searching for Ash/Jack/Destiny... well you get the picture
and this character is donated by a fan of this series.
