I had a mondo writer's block so sorry for making you wait so long for

this chapter, anyway I would love fanart. Oh yeah this chapter is

dedicated to yet another new character, the character was sent in by the

same guy that sent in Angel Matsuda.

Return of Destiny

By firehedgehog

Chapter Six

      It was a beautiful day, the sun shone in a perfectly blue sky with

nary a white cloud in view. Trees swayed gently in a warm breeze, long

grass moved also sending a soft sound as it swayed.

      Green eyes watched this silently, these green eyes belonged to a

young women who was around twenty-one years old.

      Serenity Valentine was a very beautiful woman, she had waist

length golden blond hair surrounding a soft heart shaped face.

She wore a simple blue dress that slipped down her body slimly, at

the height of 5'6 she was quite the looker.

      She had come out here to think, she didn't get much time to think

while working in the anti-rocket group. She worked as a medic there and

she did good work, as it was half the time she worked on humans and

pokemon.

      'Strange, I'm starting to think about home... when dad was still

alive' she thought with a sad little smile, closing her green eyes she

remembered.

//Flashback//

      Serenity was the daughter of Max Valentine who was a famous

pokemon rancher, as it was she was working hard so that one day she

would be able to run the ranch one day.

Every day work on the ranch was hard but worth it, it was a great

thing to work with all those great pokemon and learn how to treat them.

      It was on a nice warm summer day that her world began to fall

apart, she was waiting for her father to arrive to help with something

when she heard someone cry out in pain.

      Quickly she ran in that direction, she feared what it could be...

that fear turned out to true. Running around a corner she froze, there

was her father standing up to two men who were yelling at him to agree

to sell the ranch and pushing him around violently.

      "I will not sell no matter what you do, this is my land and one

day it will be my daughters land," Max said angrily, the next thing

Serenity saw left her cold... the two men attacked her father.

      "Daddy," she cried as he landed on the ground finally and didn't

move, the two man continued to beat her father as she ran towards him.

      "Weakling," one of the two said, then they left and vanished from

view as Serenity got to her fathers side.

      Tears fell down her face as she pulled her father into her arms,

gently she ran a hand through his pale blond hair. Finally her father

gave a weak cough and opened green eyes, he looked up at her sadly.

      "Serenity... I'm so sorry, I failed to protect you," he whispered

weakly, then his green eyes that mirrored her own in color closed for

the final time and his body grew still.

      "Daddy," she cried, she hugged his body and cried till the local

officer Jenny arrived... but much too late to do anything.

//End Flashback//

      Serenity sighed and tears fell down her face, she remembered that

day so well... it was after that day that she was sent to live with her

mother.

//Flashback//

      "Your staying in your room and that's that!" her mother yelled,

Serenity winced as she heard the downstairs door slam close as her

mother left.

      Once again her mother had gone out to buy beer, her mother was an

alcoholic... one of the many reasons her parents had divorced.

      Sadly she sat in a corner of her small room and cried, she hated

it here and wanted to leave... but she didn't have anywhere to go if she

left this hellhole.

      Rubbing her arms together she winced, this was another reason why

her parents had divorced. Her mother beat her once she made her high in

alcohol, bruises covered her body but she hid it with loose clothing.

      'I have to get out of here, one day she might just take the

beating too far' she thought, she had lost her father to someone beating

him to death and she didn't intend she die the same way.

      Quickly she got and began packing, she had to hurry or her mother

might get back from the liqure store.

//End Flashback//

      "Okay, maybe it was a stupid thing to run away from home with no

clear plan... but it was better then being beaten everyday' she thought,

with a sigh she remembered her short marriage to James Tanner.

      They had been married almost a year and had a son named Logan. But

problems in the marriage had cause divorce and after a court battle she

got custody, to support her son ad herself she had gotten a job in

Cerulean City as a pokemon Nurse.

      But once again trouble found a way to find her, and it came from

the past.

//Flashback//

      Serenity shivered in fear as two team rockets members stole all

the pokemon in the center, she had to stop them or who knew what would

happen to all those innocent pokemon.

      "Hey, stop there, don't even think of taking those pokemon," she

said angrily, the two rockets turned and sneered at her.

      'It can't be, anyone but them' she thought and the world seemed to

freeze, these were the two men that had murdered her father and ruined

her life... team rocket. Thankfully they didn't seem to recognize her, the

two men chuckled darkly.

      "Well well, it looks like the little nurse is playing hero," the

first rocket said, then to her horror they leapt forward intent on doing

exactly the same thing they had done to her father Max Valentine.

      ~Crash~

      Startled everyone froze as a window smashed open and a dark figure

leapt inside, Serenity blinked and gasped in awe.

      Standing there was a very handsome guy with ebony hair and the

most beautiful Hazel eyes she had ever seen, he was slightly younger

then her but his eyes seemed so old in his young face.

      "Step away from the lady," the teen... no man said, the two rockets

sneered at each other and attacked the unknown man.

Serenity then got to watch the unknown man beat the heck out of

the two rockets, less then a minute later the two were out cold and were

soon tied up.

      "Thank you," she whispered walking up to him, he smiled and once

again she found herself looking into his beautiful Hazel eyes.

      "Your welcome, by the way I'm Angel Matsuda bounty hunter," he

said, Serenity smiled at him.

      "Serenity Valentine," she said and they shook, she couldn't help

but notice how warm and strong his grip was on her hand.

//End Flashback//

      Serenity smiled and opened her emerald eyes, that meeting with

Angel had changed her life for the better.

      He had stayed in Cerulean for three weeks and both of them had

gotten closer to the other, but then one day he disappeared without a

word.

      She knew that his job had taken him away from her, she had never

gotten a chance to tell Angel her feelings.

      After the pokemon center incident she and Logan moved to New Bark

town, there she joined the anti-team rocket organization as a medic.

While this job was slightly dangerous it fit her well, and it also

gave her a chance to meet Angel again.

      During a battle against team rocket the bounty hunter was hurt and

taken to the base medical center, she had healed him... but this time she

had gotten the chance to say goodbye.

      "One day Angel we will meet again, and then I'll tell you what I

feel about you," she whispered with a s oft smile, then she got up and

started walking back to base and her son Logan.

      Misty had called a meeting and it was almost time, they were

planning a raid on another rocket installation and she had to be ready

to treat any wounds.

TBC

I know I know, kinda lame after making you wait so long, but at least I

got it out. I plan to get Serenity and Angel to meet up in future

chapters, also for Ash and Misty to meet up just before the Unknown

break out. Crystal should also show up soon, she'll be finding her

family soon.
