Author's Notes: Well here's the second ending. For those who didn't notice
or chose to ignore the warning on the last chapter. Again here it is. AAML
fans beware. This will not end up having Ash and Misty together. Anyway,
the answer to the trivia question two chapters before the ending began is:
1) pillow 2) blanket/covers 3) remote control 4) yourself 5) other person.
The answers are in the order of #1 answer to #5 answer. Again, the
information for this trivia question came from the family feud. Anyway, I
didn't do too badly on this chapter because most of it is the exact same as
the previous chapter (meaning the same as the first ending) except for the
main difference. Ash ends up with Marin. As well as all the other stuff
that needs to be different for Ash to make a different choice. Well, here's
what you've been waiting for!

Misty woke up with a bad headache. As she looks around, she notices that she seems to be the first to wake up. Though she also notices that her Blazeon is missing. She quickly begins helping others wake up. When Ash and Misty wake up, they quickly go out to check up on their children, who they had left with some of their friends temporarily. By the time they had returned, assured that their children were safe, Misty had woken everyone else up and had determined that Team Rocket had taken her Blazeon. Prof. Oak and Tracey had both agreed to clean up the lab as it became a mess when everyone and everything had fallen asleep in the lab.
Misty was more angry then worried about her Blazeon. She figured that they wouldn't try to harm her Blazeon, because pokemon don't maintain their value if they're seriously hurt, but Misty knew that anything could still happen. Before anyone could say anything more to her, Misty had already ridden out on her Rapidash. Although Misty couldn't have known where Team Rocket went with her Blazeon, she somehow knew where he was.
Misty didn't know how long she rode for, but eventually she began to come onto the balloon as it was cresting the top of a rather steep hill. Misty could also see her Blazeon blazing out from some sort of glass container that Team Rocket had put him in. Misty was genuinely surprised that they were able to fly their balloon through the storm that was just now letting up. Misty really wished that she had a pokemon that could fly. That way she wouldn't have to really ride very close to it before she sent out her real first attack. As it was, Misty knew that Team Rocket would have ample warning of her approach. Unfortunately, Misty was wrong. Team Rocket were having more trouble with Misty's Blazeon than they had apparently expected and were trying to maintain their flight while keeping their stolen prize. Misty only realized this when she got closer and could see Team Rocket struggling with keeping their balloon in the air while also keeping the cords holding the glass cage to the bottom of the box. Blazeon must have just woken up, Misty thought, recalling how she knew that her Blazeon didn't shine it's light quite so much when it was asleep. Misty also then knew why she didn't know that they were so close, but still out of view with her Blazeon shining so brightly.
Misty was still a ways away when the setting sun was able to pierce the clouds that held it's light back. Team Rocket's balloon was hit by a sunbeam that allowed Misty's Blazeon to travel through its light and out of the glass cage and down to the ground where he could run over to Misty. When Misty's Blazeon got close Misty quickly had it get back in it's pokeball before Team Rocket realized that they had lost their stolen loot.
* * * * * * * * * * *
Ash was exhausted. Misty had taken off and no one knew where she could be. They had spent hours trying to find where Team Rocket had gone and couldn't even find a clue. Now it was an hour after sunset and they still didn't know where Misty or her Blazeon were. Ash figured that Misty C. somehow knew where her Blazeon was and went after it. Ash just didn't really like to admit it. Ash decides to go for a walk as he can't think of anything better to do. While Ash is walking, he notices someone tying up their motor boat along the beach. He quickly runs over and asks the woman who seems to be struggling with it if she wants any help. She accepts and it isn't until they're done that Ash realizes who it is that was tying the boat up. It was Marin.
At first Ash can't think of what to say. Then Marin breaks the tension by speaking first. "So, how have you been?"
"Well, I, uh, I've been fine," Ash stammers.
They begin to talk and Ash learns about how Marin is looking for another place to build a Pokemon Orphanage. Ash offers to introduce her to Professor Oak. Marin reluctantly agrees to it. Ash then escorts Marin to Prof. Oak's lab.
* * * * * * * * * * *
When they arrive, Ash notices that Gary already had gotten there before him. Ash knows that he'll have to choose between Misty and Marin now. Ash doesn't really know why he knows that, but he does. So, Ash figures that this is the right moment to decide. Ash comes up with an excuse and goes to his home where he knows that he can think. Ash figured that Prof. Oak and Marin would figure out if she should build a Pokemon Orphanage in Pallet or not. Ash thought about what would be better if he chose Marin as opposed to Misty. He also thought about what wouldn't be better if he chose Misty as opposed to Marin. They both weighed basically even. Ash didn't know what to choose or what he really felt anymore. While Ash was thinking, Misty C. came in and he didn't even notice. Though, it wasn't as if Misty did or didn't know that he was there, it was that Ash was thinking in his living room and had told Misty that she would be able to sleep in his house; he had also pointed it out to Misty when they flew overhead. Misty sat on the couch across from Ash and waited. It was several minutes before Ash realized he had company. Ash couldn't help but jump in surprise.
"I didn't notice you," Ash quickly said.
"I figured you didn't," Misty replied.
They just sat there staring at each other. Father and daughter not really knowing what they really should say, but still comfortable in the silence as well. Misty spoke first. "You seem preoccupied with something. Did something else happen?"
"No," Ash replied, not certain that he should tell his daughter. "I just have a few things I need to work out.
"Well, I know that I might not be able to solve the problems of my father, but sometimes things can be worked out just by talking about it," Misty told Ash.
Ash sighs. He still isn't certain over if he should really talk with his daughter about this or not, but he figured that he should just give it a shot and see what he felt afterwards. "Well, you know how I married Misty before your mother?" Ash asked, hoping that this was a good place to begin. Misty nods and Ash continues, "I'm having difficulty on which one I should choose to spend the rest of our lives together with. I don't really know what I should do. I've considered how I felt about both of them and I've decided that I love them equally. I can't think of anything else that I haven't already considered about. I also know that they both will understand if I choose the other, so that isn't helpful. I just don't know what I should do. I know that the time for me to choose should be now, but I don't know what I should really do."
Misty sighed. It was a little bit before she replied. When she did, Ash was caught off guard at what she said. "Well, I would like you to continue helping me out. I really feel that I still need you and I can't think of how I could get along without you."
Ash nodded that really sounded like it would be good. "Thanks," Ash said, before he got up and left the house with Misty right behind him. He finally had an answer to the question that he had been troubling over for the past while.
* * * * * * * * * * *
Gary didn't know why Ash had given everyone such a flimsy excuse, but he figured that he'd find out soon enough. When Ash did get back to the lab, his daughter Misty was right behind him. Gary was tired, but still wanted to see why Ash had left right after Marin showed up. Gary just HAD to know. Gary was at least relieved to know that Misty's Blazeon was fine and safe from Team Rocket. Gary even had to chuckle when Misty C. told them about how when she left Team Rocket, they didn't realize that Blazeon wasn't with them anymore. After that Ash said that he had an announcement.
Gary was very surprised to see him ask Marin to marry him. Why is he doing this now? Has he decided on who he wanted to spend the rest of his life with? Gary wondered. Gary also wondered what he should do now. Gary had no real other reason to stay. Gary even considered just wandering, but he figured that he would prefer to continue being a pokemon researcher. I need to think about this later, Gary thought as he yawned and left to go to his house so he could get some sleep.
* * * * * * * * * * *
Ash and Marin had a very nice wedding. Ash even received a gift from Bianka in Altomare. It was an egg that hatched into a twin Latios and Latias. Though, Ash and Marin didn't have a honeymoon as they did for their marriage for the first part. They also would have had their wedding sooner, but Ash needed to first make certain that he was legally divorced from Misty first. Ash and Marin did set up an orphanage for pokemon in Pallet. Ash even decided to build a gym in Pallet and asked Gary if he would be the gym leader there. Gary accepted quite quickly. Gary seemed to run the gym quite well and soon it was a gym that had no other rival to it. Misty C. had decided that she had enough of pokemon training and became a pokemon guide, so that she could help other trainers who were wanting to have a shot at their chance of being the next Pokemon Master.

Author notes: So, how was this ending? If you're an AAML fan, I expect a flame, but I could always be wrong. Well, this was my second ending for this. If you found this good or annoying please let me know. Oh! Before I forget, this is the answer to my very last trivia question on in this fic. The answer is: roosters don't lay eggs. If you didn't get it, don't worry, because my step-dad didn't even get it until my mom commented that the rooster had a sex change. ^_^ Anyway, please review, even if you flame. ^_^
