Chapter 9: Is It Over or Is It Just the Beginning
Phanpy founded his 'daddy' rolled up in a ball on the floor whimpering grabbing his head a bit like 'mommy' Psyduck. He was laid with his back against the wall near the window. This made the baby pokemon a bit nervous because he was sure his 'daddy' was in pain, because his eyes were closed tightly and tears was falling from his them. Phanpy walked closer to his 'daddy' and snuggled up to him. "Phanpy phan phan phanpy"(Daddy, what's wrong?) Phanpy phan phanpy (Can I help 'daddy, please say I can help.)
"Phanpy, I need that brown bag on the bed. It got medicine in it that makes my headache go away." Ash didn't need to say no more as Phanpy looked at the very high up bed. He didn't have Pikachu's strong hind legs to jump high enough to get the bag. He was built to be close to the ground, but that was not going to stop him from taking care of 'daddy'. That what he told the others and that what he was going to do.
He looked around for something that will help him up toward his goal. At first he felt that he will fail but than he found what he was looking for. The dresser that was right next to his 'daddy's' bed mad perfect steps as he pulled each drawer out with his nose to make it to the top. Than he jumped onto the bed grabbed the brown bag and jumped back down on the floor. It was easier to get to the ground than to get from it. He pulled the brown bag behind him. "Phanpy phan phanpy" (I did it 'daddy'; I got the bag on the bed by myself.)
Ash could not help but smiled at the baby pokemon triumph over the height of the bed. Ash pushed himself up in a sitting position, even though his head told him to stay down, with all the dizziness and pressured. "Does that mean I can't carry you anymore?" Ash said with a bit laughter in his voice as he grabbed the bag and felt for the pills inside. He decided to take two because one was not cutting it any more.
"Phanpy phanpy phanpy" (I don't mine 'daddy', I like when you hold me) the pokemon said happily.
"Good cause I like holding you" he said as he picked up the elephant like pokemon in his lap. Ash and Phanpy lay there a bit as the medicine took effect. It slowly dulled the pressured away from his head, allowing Ash to drift into sleep.
~*~*~Ash's point of view~*~*~
It was empty, not only dark but empty. The feeling I felt after I kill my pokemon, a place a visited willingly when I felt unsure about something or I didn't wanted to be there anymore. No they was not my pokemon but I believed it was them when I killed them, so is that why I feel so bad inside, is that why I drifted into this place. A place that feelings don't have any meaning anymore, I don't want to be here. "Let me out" I screamed at the top of my lungs. "I don't want to be here, please"
"Why do you want to leave here?" said emotionless voice. It sounded child like but wise. "This place holds no boundaries to your purpose. I stay here if I was you. There is no pain here."
"No pain" I said unsure. I may not 'feel' physical pain no more but emotional pain held new meaning.
"None at all, physical, and emotionally. Just you and your purpose."
"What is this purpose of my. Is it like when Lugia told me that I'm the only one to save the world." He did not want to go through that again, it was a heavy burden, but his friends were there to help him through it. Did he still have friends? They said they were his friends but did he deserve friends. Most of all did he deserved Misty?
Misty. That name held some much meaning to me even before she kissed me, but deep inside I felt I betrayed her. She didn't know what she was dealing with now. She was thinking she was kissing Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town who dream was to be the greatest Pokemon Master in the world of Pokemon. That Ash was dead or at least was dieing slowly. I was being a cruel fool. I should not play with Misty emotion like that, I don't want to hurt her, I'll could take the pain but I will not let her be hurt.
"No, just to please are 'mother'" the boy finished. I knew that he was not talking about my mom. I was the only child, but at the same time I knew who he was talking about too. I got anger at this boy. He almost convinced me to stay here; the idea of no more pain was great. I knew this place could do this for me, but someone always 'wake' me up. But than again this place made me forget all the other emotion.
"Prof. Vine is not my 'mother' who ever you are. I will not do what she wants me to do." It was her fault that this happen. I could not go back to her. "Tell her that! There was no way I was going to..."
You Stupid Pathetic Discussing Weak IT.
Those words echoed in this void cutting my words short. I could not escape no matter how hard I ran, they were always behind me. They weren't just the pokemon voices, but Misty and Brock and all my friends started chanting the words like ghostly choirs that hated me. I finally just fell to the ground or whatever I was standing on it all looked the same to me. I cover my ears trying to block out their cruel hateful voices. "This is not real." I chanted softly but slowly my voice raise trying to drown out their hate. I know it wasn't real why does it hurt so badly.
"Because Ashy boy they don't know about me," said a voice that was just like mine. All the voices submitted to voice that was mine, but at the same time it wasn't? I looked at the boy who was mirror image of myself. He smiled at me like he looked down on me like I was nothing. He had all of my confidant where I had barely enough to stand. But I did stand even if he made me feel small; I stood so I could look into his or was it mine face, because I was not sure. Only different that was there is that his eyes were crisom red while mine was brown. Or maybe they was different color here, I didn't have a mirror, but him. But he not me, is he?
"Who are you?" I know it was stupid question to ask but really. Looking at yourself in a mirror is completely different from looking at yourself as another person. 'Don't red eyes mean a bad thing?' I thought about all the movie I seen. 'But than again Bayleef have red eyes and she far from being evil.'
"You, who else will I be" Ashura answer back?
~*~*~ End of Ash's point of view ~*~*~
When Misty and Pikachu enter Ash's room what she found stole her heart away. Ash was sleep under the window with Phanpy on his lap sleep. Both looked as if they were lost in calm dream. "He so cute when he sleeps"
"Pikachu pika pikapi" (You never known how much trouble Ash cause the past month) he said looking at his trainer.
"Don't mean all his life."
"Pika pi" (You got a point) he said as he was thinking about all the adventure they managed to run into thanks to Ash. "Pikachu pika pi pikachu" (But I never trade it for the world).
"Me neither Pikachu" she said as she gently touch his cheek. She looked closer at his tanned face and kissed him on the cheek.
"Pikachu pika" (I could leave if you want to be alone) Pikachu smiled. "Pikachu pika pika pika" (But Phanpy maybe in the way)
"Don't think I won't knock you out with my mallet Pikachu"
"Pikachu pi pika pi pikachu pi pika pika" (I did mean nothing by that..um what that bag doing there) he was trying avoided Misty wrath and that was the only thing that he spotted on the clean room floor. 'I take my chances with god pokemon than Misty'. Misty looked at the bag that lay on the floor. It was the same bag that Ash had pulled the letter from earlier and why Brock took Pidgoet to the gym a few seconds ago. Misty picked up the bag upside down and out fell out was lightly color blue pills, which scatter across the floor.
Pikachu looked at the pills unsure what to say about it. He about to ask when Misty said, "What are these?"
"Pika pikachu pikachu" (I was going to asks the same thing) the mouse said as he pick up one of the blue capsules off the floor.
Phanpy woke up from all the noise that was going about the quite room, when he heard Misty question and saw what Pikachu was looking at. "Phanpy phan phanpy phan phan" (Those are 'daddy's' medicine that make 'daddy's' bad headache go away.) "Phanpy phanpy phan phan phanpy" ('Daddy was laying here and he could not get the bag so I had to get it off the bed) he stated proudly.
"Oh, thank you Phanpy. You took care of Ash really good" Misty pick up of the pills, there where six in her hand and one in Pikachu, which make seven. "Phanpy I have to asks Prof. Oak something about these pills ok" Phanpy not sure why but agreed with her anyway. "Pikachu do you want to stay here or go"
"Pi pikachu" (I'll stay here) Pikachu said looking at his trainer that was sleep and Phanpy who was falling back into his dream. "Pika pika pikachu chu pi" (I think I make a better guard than this sleepy head here. Tell me what you fine out.)
"Ok" Misty said as she ran out to speak to Prof. Oak about the pills she founded. They maybe good or bad, she wasn't sure but she wanted to make sure. When she made it to the lab, she ran into Mrs. Ketchum who was about to check on Ash.
"Misty, what are you doing here, is Ash ok?" she sounded worry. Even though Ash was here, she wanted to make sure.
"Yeah, he sleeping with Phanpy and Pikachu is watching him. I just wanted to ask Prof. Oak to look at these pills I found, that Ash had." That was enough to put Mrs. Ketchum on high alert and she dragged Misty to where Prof. Oak and the other where talking about pokemon. Everyone turned to see a worry Mrs. Ketchum.
"Delia what wrong"
"My son on drugs."
"No, Mrs. Ketchum. I just wanted to know what these do, since Ash is still taking them for his headaches because they don't look like Advil" Misty trying to calm the woman nerves. Though Misty still felt just as uneasily as Delia
"I'm so sorry, I just so stress even if Ash back"
"I know how you feel," Misty said as she gave her a hug.
"Misty about those pills" Prof. Oak asked?
"Yeah here" she pulled them out of her pocket. Prof. Oak looked at the simple blue capsules. He took one of the pills and broke it in half as the white powder was pour in a liquid sustain and turned dark blue instead. Oak gave a slight frown with the reaction.
"Gary, what does it mean when the color is this rich and the color blue." Prof. Oak asked his grandson who decided that he wanted to be a pokemon researcher.
Gary Oak got closer look to the beaker that held the liquid. "Jeez gramps how many of those pills you put in there." Gary looked at his grandpa.
"Only one" Prof. Oak frown as he watch his grandson reaction turned to disbelief to horror. He turned to look at the liquid and back to his grandpa serous face.
"What wrong," Misty could not take it any more. Seeing Prof. Oak frown was one thing but Gary was another thing. And though the watcher was not as close as the two he too had worry face and Tracy was always happy and trying make everyone else happy.
"Um.well you see" Gary stopped and looked at his gramps who gave him keep on going look. He wondered if he did this to get out the range of fire or give him a quiz or both. 'I wish I was anywhere but here' "The darker the liquid coloring the stronger it is, and the since the color is blue, which stand for tranquil, mean that this one pill is about strong enough to take some of the biggest pokemon about a day.
"What" everyone yelled.
"Before all of you go running to wake Ash, I think you might want to know what this pill do." Sabrina said in her calm voice but hand was covering her nose.
"What do it do" ask Richie who was sure Ash did not tried to kill himself.
"It is indeed a tranquilizer, but not to put the body to sleep but the mind. It what some people used to keep very powerful physic ability or 'headaches' dull out. To neutralize their power to make them weak or to make sure their power doesn't get of hand before they learn to use their 'gifts'."
"In other words it put the mind a sleep" asked Tracy
"Are you saying Ashy boy is physic?"
"If he wasn't than he be most likely dead, while Misty said he was sleep," Sabrina said calmly. "But stuff is little stronger than to be just that, I think there more to it."
"So this must be the a new abilities, but what else can Ash do. And if mom right about Ash's abilities what about his.." Everyone looked at Misty. Misty looked at everyone one with a blank face. Only Gary and Brock knew what she was talking about and Brock was gone.
"Well now this will be hard to explain," said Gary drearily.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"You're me? You can't be me because I'm me" Ash looked at his counter part.
"I'm part of you, so I am you Ash and you know that so stop trying to denied it." Ashura smiled at his confused part. Ash knew he was telling the truth but he felt scared of him. He knew Ashura shouldn't be here not like this, not like another him.
Ash looked at Ashura deeply in his cold red eyes. "Why are you here?"
"Simply Ashy boy, to do what needed to be done."
"And what needed to be done" Ash knowing full well that he was not going like his answer.
"To end all the pain that happen to us, to make all the people and pokemon pay for their sins against us. To.."
"Kill them" Ash finished this darker halve sentence.
"I was going to say remove their existence premeditatedly but yeah you get the point none or less"
"I will not let you do that" Ash said glaring at Ashura
"A course you are Ashy boy because you want this to stop don't you." The voices came back even stronger and Ash found his self on the ground again trying to stop the noise and pain. "And the only way to stop it is to make sure they can't do it no more. Didn't we learn that Ash? The noise stopped after we kill those pokemon and everything was good except that Vine woman thinking she can control us, but she only helped us came closer Ash, she helped you find me. Don't you want to stop the pain Ash, I needed your help.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Pikachu looked at his trainer as he slept soundly under the window. But Pikachu knew that this was not right at all. Something kept telling the mouse pokemon that Ash was in trouble he felt something giving off of his trainer as distress, but Ash made no sign of having any problem of sleep. 'Why wish for bad faith' Pikachu trying reinsured his self. However even though he said this to his self he still felt uneasy and continual to watch. Phanpy still laid sleep in his 'happy dream world'. 'I wish I was a Pichu again.'
Pikachu was not exactly right about the little blue elephant, which slept on Ash lap Phanpy also, felt something wrong with his 'daddy'. But unlike Pikachu he was sleep, when he sudden felt his 'daddy's' cries in his head. But instead of waking up the baby pokemon he pulled him in farther into a deeper sleep. And deeper he fell the closer and stronger his 'daddy's' voice was. Soon Phanpy found himself in a black nothingness.
"Dad..." The baby was confused as it walked in the abyss. "Daddy" Phanpy said again. "Phanpy phan phanpy" he said meaningless sounds out loud. 'Why am I speaking human speech' the young elephant like pokemon thought to himself. Phanpy had no idea where he was. One second he was having a nice dream of playing tag than next he heard a cry of his 'daddy'. He ran toward the cries but somehow fell here. "Daddy where are you" thinking that finding his 'daddy' was more important at the moment.
It was very big to small pokemon and scary. There was nothing there but pitch-blackness and soft cries of his 'daddy'. But as he got closer to his 'daddy's' sadness he started to hear many voices. Voices that sounded like his friends but Phanpy knew better than that because his friends were nice. These voices were very loud and mean calling 'daddy' names they whirled around the abyss like cold wind, depriving any warmth. Phanpy knew that 'daddy' voice came from here and started run toward the middle. But the voices did not like idea of the baby elephant trying to get through so they pushed the Phanpy back from his goal.
They tried pull all hope from the baby body but Phanpy did not let their word persuaded him to turn around. Phanpy knew they were lying and trying to make him go away from his 'daddy'. 'These very bad voices are hurting 'daddy', they making him cry. I have to tell 'daddy' not to listen to mean words' Phanpy though. Phanpy pushed himself harder and harder against the wind like voices until he saw what he was looking for, his 'daddy'. The voices did not hold no more power over him when he saw his 'daddy' but there was a small problem there was two 'daddy'.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Vine was very very angry. She knew Ash will not listen to Shadow word of obedient but before she can play her card something else happen. The child threw her 'child' out of his mine. Shadow couldn't even defend against this new power and thrown. If it wasn't the fact that he was mostly a ghost type he would have hit the wall, instead of simply going through it.
She knew Ash was not mentally stable to push Shadow out of his mind. Right now that was his weakest spot, to attack and convince him to be loyal. Than she remember something. When she tested Ash's brain waves before Ash had produced two way of thinking, one was his original thoughts the other was aggressive. His original was almost became mere clay in her hands, with his confusing and sadness. But his aggressive side became untrusting, and resentful. His mind split into two different people. 'If Hazel did not interfered I could of made both mind one.'
"Maybe this won't be so boring after all" the sly comment by Lust. As she look at her 'brother' coming back from who know where. "So Mistress what will we do now" The women was as red as pepper and most likely as hot as one.
Prof. Vine calmed her mind to think clearly. 'If I can't take him from afar than I take him while he is close. That boy will not ruin my work. "Lust I think you get a chance to play with your bother yet" Lust smiled at the women understanding the 'play' very well. "But I don't want you to break him. I want in one piece. Do you understand?"
"A course Mistress a course" Lust said happily.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ash wanted to say 'yes' to his counterpart but deep inside of him he knew he couldn't fall into 'his' way of thinking. Ash held other people feeling on a crystal glass pedestal. Fragile but also beautifully important feeling, that what they was. It was not like him to throw that in the wind. He pushed back the voices as far as he could until they were just whisper of doubt. He struggled to his feet drunken like but managed to stand firm and looked into Ashura's eyes with great determination. "I guess I have to teach you the hard way" said Ashura with a smile.
"Misty always says I bit hard headed" replied.
"Well let me help crack that head open" Ashura said as his body started to morph into the multi Eevee form. Ash's eyes widen as he watched for the first time the change that accord in front of him. He had felt the changes happen to him but now he knew what he looked like. The black fur and red circle that belonged to Urmbeon, the large ears, tail and yellow jewel of an Espeon, the red scales like fin that ran down Ashura's back from the water pokemon Veporeon. The human like pokemon shift his position on all four reach he could of surly stand on his two hind legs and growled baring his white fang.
Ash thoughts yelled out with great stress. He did not what to do. Ashura looked as if he was about tear him shreds. Ashura pulled back to pounce on him but Ash did not move, not because he was scared because he knew he can't hide from him. He couldn't hide from him even if he wanted to. Ashura movements were fast as jumped in air teeth bare ready to sink into Ash skin. But there were another movement that was equally fast. It was blue ball and it hit Ashura dead on the in head. It was more of a surprised to Ashura as it was to Ash. But Ashura quickly got it wits about him landed flawlessly away from the blue ball.
The blue ball landed in front of Ash and unfolded, a long nose with red strips appear as well as two big ears with two red strips on the end, and a short tail and for small legs. Ash was not only surprise that he was here but what came from his mouth. "Daddy are you ok" Ash blinked a couple of times as he looked into Phanpy black eyes.
"Yeah sure, thanks to you." Ash said unsure if he was hearing thing again. Phanpy gave him the biggest smile that only he and his best friend Togepi could achieve, this calm Ash though of doubts of his sanity. Phanpy was here in this place but how?
[Well well well, what do we have here a small baby to the rescue to your destruction. For shame Ash you could do batter than that.] Ashura looked at the small pokemon that stared with defiance.
"I won't let you hurt my 'daddy'; you're a very bad thingy. You try to hurt my 'daddy' with very bad words and lies." Phanpy prepared his battle stance focus on his opponent, he eyes narrowed and his ear was turned back. Phanpy four legs were spread out to give him his best balance and speed. Every part of him was focus for this battle, only his nosed twisted with anticipation. "'Daddy' we can bit this bad thingy" Ash never saw his little pokemon so ready to battle.
"Phanpy this is not normal" Ash tried to think best way to explain it to young minded pokemon, but he was sure even if got one of his older pokemon he wouldn't be able to explain. "He's really strong, and he's a part of me, but it very mean and it might hurt you badly Phanpy. I don't want you to get hurt."
"Yes I know it like 'daddy' but it not you you. He very very bad and make you sick. He doesn't belong here. And 'daddy' not bad, so I have to fight bad part because it hurting you 'daddy' and we must win and we will win." Phanpy knew that this 'thingy' was 'daddy' but it been corrupted and try was trying to take control over his true 'daddy'. "Daddy we must fight" he repeated again.
A boost of confident that Ash forgotten he had grew but no where near into a massaged tree that he once had. "Your right Phanpy, we have to and we will win." Ash said a the last part doubtfully
[A forgotten dream that should stay forgotten] Ashura growled. He was not happy about how the little pokemon pulled Ash back to his old self. But what do he had to worry about he still felt Ash fear, and unsure.
"Phanpy Take Down" Ash commanded his little blue pokemon. Phanpy pushed his little body full force toward Ashura. Pulling his whole body into this run, but Ashura had different idea, as he faded into the darkness around him, just before Phanpy hit him. Ash and Phanpy was a lost for a moment unsure where he went. The answer to the question soon was answer as two glowing red eyes appeared from above the elephant pokemon and came crashing down with his claw extended. "Phanpy move he above you" Ash yelled to his pokemon.
Phanpy didn't even looked up as he took his legs and jumped backward from his in coming enemy. The move did little even if Phanpy dodge Ashura's first attack he didn't dodge the Slash that follow up. Phanpy screamed in pain as the sharp claws ripped into his side drawing blood. Phanpy stagger back a bit with pain but lunch his self for a quick Tackle but Ashura easily dodged the close range Tackle with Double Team and quickly used his tail for a Cut attack sending Phanpy back to where Ash stood. 'He too fast for Phanpy, I can't do this to him. This battle is not fair.' "Phanpy you have to stop now you can't fight him."
The baby pokemon stood on his weary body looking at Ashura before him. "No 'daddy' I c..c..can beat him for you. I can. Please 'daddy' trusts me, we can't stop." Ash looked at the baby a little unsure what to do. He had a bad feeling that this was like Pikachu's battle and it might end like it.
'No' shaking the bad feeling that was remerging. "If you ready to fight Phanpy than I won't stop you" Ash said proudly to his pokemon. 'But how do I beat him? Phanpy is not that fast; I have to think of something.' "Used Rollout" Phanpy quickly turned his self into a ball and started to spin toward Ashura. Ashura smiled to himself as decided to finish this battle. He opened his mouth and used Watergun. Ash saw this happened but decided not break the attack. "Phanpy spin as fast as you can straight toward him."
No sooner than Ash said that the powerful blasted of water hit the pokemon knocking him back. But Phanpy never let up his form and landed like spinning tire stuck in a ditch. Phanpy spinning as fast as he can making the gusher of water split apart and forming a path straight toward Ashura. Ashura could not let up his attack but he knew another way to deal with this. His yellow jewel sparked electric bolt through the water making it connect to the small blue pokemon. But he did not stop his attack and Phanpy finally reached his goal hit Ashura right in his face.
Ashura was forced back with snarl of anger more than pain his tail flickered dangerously back and forth. [There no more time for games] Ashura roared. A red blackish aura surrounded the Ashura and than Phanpy as he was lifted off the ground.
"Nooooooooo" Ash yelled. Horrible memories flashed back in his mind. Phanpy struggled in the physic gripped like Pikachu did before him. "Stop it"
[Oh does this hurt you as much as this small pokemon. Poor Ashy boy] Ashura smirked. He no longer feared Ash will to fight. He felt his kind hearted double fall into his despair. [Well it just you and me for the moment small one]
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Pikapi pi pikachu" (Ash, Phanpy wake up please) Pikachu shaking his trainer than trying to arose Phanpy. But neither responded to the mouse pokemon concern cries. "Pikachu pika"(Wake up) Pikachu tried again but there still was no avail. Pikachu was getting mad and scared so he charged his cheeks for Thundershock, that when he heard Phanpy mumble in his sleep.
"Phanpy phan Phanpy" (Daddy are you ok). Pikachu stopped his wake up call. And wonder what type of dream Phanpy was having. But than Ash mouth move to a response, his voices would have been lost in the air if anyone else was in the room. Pikachu looked back and forth knowing that this was more than this than what he was seeing. Pikachu was listening to the conversation between his small friend and his trainer. He figured that they were battling something that was inside Ash, something that was causing Ash great pain.
Whatever it was it was strong and it was trying to consume his trainer. Pikachu wanted so much to help fight this unknown enemy but he was out here and they where, inside Ash's head. Pikachu hated the feeling of helplessness he had no idea how to help his friends. Pikachu watch unsurely as the battle continued, he finch every time he saw Phanpy in pain, he couldn't help feel that Phanpy was giving everything he got. Also because of Phanpy Ash voice was growing stronger and louder, but that dark feeling wasn't letting up.
Than a red blackish dark aura consume his trainer than it surround the young pokemon that struggled against evil aura. The aura was stealing the young pokemon breath away from him. "Nooooooo" he heard the dread and fear in his trainer voice. "Stop it" the last part drifted in to air like the first time he heard Ash speak.
"Pikachu pika pi pipikachu pikapi pikachu" (Don't give up Ash, you can win, as long as you don't give up we right by your side) 'Please Ash' Pikachu thought as a tear feel from his eye. 'I'm going get help don't you dare give up.' Pikachu thought as he ran out the room and down the stair.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ash heard Pikachu voice cut through his fears. Anger overpowered Ash thoughts and being he was not going to let Ashura cause anymore harm. Ash body sifted and changed just the same as Ashura. Still fear lingered in his mind when he changed but he had something, no someone else to worry about. Ash reached into his power quickly with fear that if thought about it he would never be able to do it. He reached and pulled on the power 'but how do I use it.' Ash looked at Ashura who still had Phanpy in his physic grip.
Ash used only move he could think of that he knew he could do and ran full forces Tackle knocking Ashura out of his physic hold of his pokemon. Ash landed on his feet, while Ashura slided on his side. Ash growled in a deep voice [Leave him along.]. Ash reached back into his power not sure if it was going to work or how but he wanted this over now.
[Do you think you can defeat me that easily] question Ashura as he got up. Ash and Ashura stand on four as they both looked at each other as perfect mirror. Both having their ears draw back teeth bare. Ash's brown eyes stay focused on Ashura's red eyes, both waiting for any move from their default stance.
[No I don't think, I know] and with that Ash charged up a......

Chapter 9: Is It Over or Is It Just the Beginning
Phanpy founded his 'daddy' rolled up in a ball on the floor whimpering grabbing his head a bit like 'mommy' Psyduck. He was laid with his back against the wall near the window. This made the baby pokemon a bit nervous because he was sure his 'daddy' was in pain, because his eyes were closed tightly and tears was falling from his them. Phanpy walked closer to his 'daddy' and snuggled up to him. "Phanpy phan phan phanpy"(Daddy, what's wrong?) Phanpy phan phanpy (Can I help 'daddy, please say I can help.)
"Phanpy, I need that brown bag on the bed. It got medicine in it that makes my headache go away." Ash didn't need to say no more as Phanpy looked at the very high up bed. He didn't have Pikachu's strong hind legs to jump high enough to get the bag. He was built to be close to the ground, but that was not going to stop him from taking care of 'daddy'. That what he told the others and that what he was going to do.
He looked around for something that will help him up toward his goal. At first he felt that he will fail but than he found what he was looking for. The dresser that was right next to his 'daddy's' bed mad perfect steps as he pulled each drawer out with his nose to make it to the top. Than he jumped onto the bed grabbed the brown bag and jumped back down on the floor. It was easier to get to the ground than to get from it. He pulled the brown bag behind him. "Phanpy phan phanpy" (I did it 'daddy'; I got the bag on the bed by myself.)
Ash could not help but smiled at the baby pokemon triumph over the height of the bed. Ash pushed himself up in a sitting position, even though his head told him to stay down, with all the dizziness and pressured. "Does that mean I can't carry you anymore?" Ash said with a bit laughter in his voice as he grabbed the bag and felt for the pills inside. He decided to take two because one was not cutting it any more.
"Phanpy phanpy phanpy" (I don't mine 'daddy', I like when you hold me) the pokemon said happily.
"Good cause I like holding you" he said as he picked up the elephant like pokemon in his lap. Ash and Phanpy lay there a bit as the medicine took effect. It slowly dulled the pressured away from his head, allowing Ash to drift into sleep.
~*~*~Ash's point of view~*~*~
It was empty, not only dark but empty. The feeling I felt after I kill my pokemon, a place a visited willingly when I felt unsure about something or I didn't wanted to be there anymore. No they was not my pokemon but I believed it was them when I killed them, so is that why I feel so bad inside, is that why I drifted into this place. A place that feelings don't have any meaning anymore, I don't want to be here. "Let me out" I screamed at the top of my lungs. "I don't want to be here, please"
"Why do you want to leave here?" said emotionless voice. It sounded child like but wise. "This place holds no boundaries to your purpose. I stay here if I was you. There is no pain here."
"No pain" I said unsure. I may not 'feel' physical pain no more but emotional pain held new meaning.
"None at all, physical, and emotionally. Just you and your purpose."
"What is this purpose of my. Is it like when Lugia told me that I'm the only one to save the world." He did not want to go through that again, it was a heavy burden, but his friends were there to help him through it. Did he still have friends? They said they were his friends but did he deserve friends. Most of all did he deserved Misty?
Misty. That name held some much meaning to me even before she kissed me, but deep inside I felt I betrayed her. She didn't know what she was dealing with now. She was thinking she was kissing Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town who dream was to be the greatest Pokemon Master in the world of Pokemon. That Ash was dead or at least was dieing slowly. I was being a cruel fool. I should not play with Misty emotion like that, I don't want to hurt her, I'll could take the pain but I will not let her be hurt.
"No, just to please are 'mother'" the boy finished. I knew that he was not talking about my mom. I was the only child, but at the same time I knew who he was talking about too. I got anger at this boy. He almost convinced me to stay here; the idea of no more pain was great. I knew this place could do this for me, but someone always 'wake' me up. But than again this place made me forget all the other emotion.
"Prof. Vine is not my 'mother' who ever you are. I will not do what she wants me to do." It was her fault that this happen. I could not go back to her. "Tell her that! There was no way I was going to..."
You Stupid Pathetic Discussing Weak IT.
Those words echoed in this void cutting my words short. I could not escape no matter how hard I ran, they were always behind me. They weren't just the pokemon voices, but Misty and Brock and all my friends started chanting the words like ghostly choirs that hated me. I finally just fell to the ground or whatever I was standing on it all looked the same to me. I cover my ears trying to block out their cruel hateful voices. "This is not real." I chanted softly but slowly my voice raise trying to drown out their hate. I know it wasn't real why does it hurt so badly.
"Because Ashy boy they don't know about me," said a voice that was just like mine. All the voices submitted to voice that was mine, but at the same time it wasn't? I looked at the boy who was mirror image of myself. He smiled at me like he looked down on me like I was nothing. He had all of my confidant where I had barely enough to stand. But I did stand even if he made me feel small; I stood so I could look into his or was it mine face, because I was not sure. Only different that was there is that his eyes were crisom red while mine was brown. Or maybe they was different color here, I didn't have a mirror, but him. But he not me, is he?
"Who are you?" I know it was stupid question to ask but really. Looking at yourself in a mirror is completely different from looking at yourself as another person. 'Don't red eyes mean a bad thing?' I thought about all the movie I seen. 'But than again Bayleef have red eyes and she far from being evil.'
"You, who else will I be" Ashura answer back?
~*~*~ End of Ash's point of view ~*~*~
When Misty and Pikachu enter Ash's room what she found stole her heart away. Ash was sleep under the window with Phanpy on his lap sleep. Both looked as if they were lost in calm dream. "He so cute when he sleeps"
"Pikachu pika pikapi" (You never known how much trouble Ash cause the past month) he said looking at his trainer.
"Don't mean all his life."
"Pika pi" (You got a point) he said as he was thinking about all the adventure they managed to run into thanks to Ash. "Pikachu pika pi pikachu" (But I never trade it for the world).
"Me neither Pikachu" she said as she gently touch his cheek. She looked closer at his tanned face and kissed him on the cheek.
"Pikachu pika" (I could leave if you want to be alone) Pikachu smiled. "Pikachu pika pika pika" (But Phanpy maybe in the way)
"Don't think I won't knock you out with my mallet Pikachu"
"Pikachu pi pika pi pikachu pi pika pika" (I did mean nothing by that..um what that bag doing there) he was trying avoided Misty wrath and that was the only thing that he spotted on the clean room floor. 'I take my chances with god pokemon than Misty'. Misty looked at the bag that lay on the floor. It was the same bag that Ash had pulled the letter from earlier and why Brock took Pidgoet to the gym a few seconds ago. Misty picked up the bag upside down and out fell out was lightly color blue pills, which scatter across the floor.
Pikachu looked at the pills unsure what to say about it. He about to ask when Misty said, "What are these?"
"Pika pikachu pikachu" (I was going to asks the same thing) the mouse said as he pick up one of the blue capsules off the floor.
Phanpy woke up from all the noise that was going about the quite room, when he heard Misty question and saw what Pikachu was looking at. "Phanpy phan phanpy phan phan" (Those are 'daddy's' medicine that make 'daddy's' bad headache go away.) "Phanpy phanpy phan phan phanpy" ('Daddy was laying here and he could not get the bag so I had to get it off the bed) he stated proudly.
"Oh, thank you Phanpy. You took care of Ash really good" Misty pick up of the pills, there where six in her hand and one in Pikachu, which make seven. "Phanpy I have to asks Prof. Oak something about these pills ok" Phanpy not sure why but agreed with her anyway. "Pikachu do you want to stay here or go"
"Pi pikachu" (I'll stay here) Pikachu said looking at his trainer that was sleep and Phanpy who was falling back into his dream. "Pika pika pikachu chu pi" (I think I make a better guard than this sleepy head here. Tell me what you fine out.)
"Ok" Misty said as she ran out to speak to Prof. Oak about the pills she founded. They maybe good or bad, she wasn't sure but she wanted to make sure. When she made it to the lab, she ran into Mrs. Ketchum who was about to check on Ash.
"Misty, what are you doing here, is Ash ok?" she sounded worry. Even though Ash was here, she wanted to make sure.
"Yeah, he sleeping with Phanpy and Pikachu is watching him. I just wanted to ask Prof. Oak to look at these pills I found, that Ash had." That was enough to put Mrs. Ketchum on high alert and she dragged Misty to where Prof. Oak and the other where talking about pokemon. Everyone turned to see a worry Mrs. Ketchum.
"Delia what wrong"
"My son on drugs."
"No, Mrs. Ketchum. I just wanted to know what these do, since Ash is still taking them for his headaches because they don't look like Advil" Misty trying to calm the woman nerves. Though Misty still felt just as uneasily as Delia
"I'm so sorry, I just so stress even if Ash back"
"I know how you feel," Misty said as she gave her a hug.
"Misty about those pills" Prof. Oak asked?
"Yeah here" she pulled them out of her pocket. Prof. Oak looked at the simple blue capsules. He took one of the pills and broke it in half as the white powder was pour in a liquid sustain and turned dark blue instead. Oak gave a slight frown with the reaction.
"Gary, what does it mean when the color is this rich and the color blue." Prof. Oak asked his grandson who decided that he wanted to be a pokemon researcher.
Gary Oak got closer look to the beaker that held the liquid. "Jeez gramps how many of those pills you put in there." Gary looked at his grandpa.
"Only one" Prof. Oak frown as he watch his grandson reaction turned to disbelief to horror. He turned to look at the liquid and back to his grandpa serous face.
"What wrong," Misty could not take it any more. Seeing Prof. Oak frown was one thing but Gary was another thing. And though the watcher was not as close as the two he too had worry face and Tracy was always happy and trying make everyone else happy.
"Um.well you see" Gary stopped and looked at his gramps who gave him keep on going look. He wondered if he did this to get out the range of fire or give him a quiz or both. 'I wish I was anywhere but here' "The darker the liquid coloring the stronger it is, and the since the color is blue, which stand for tranquil, mean that this one pill is about strong enough to take some of the biggest pokemon about a day.
"What" everyone yelled.
"Before all of you go running to wake Ash, I think you might want to know what this pill do." Sabrina said in her calm voice but hand was covering her nose.
"What do it do" ask Richie who was sure Ash did not tried to kill himself.
"It is indeed a tranquilizer, but not to put the body to sleep but the mind. It what some people used to keep very powerful physic ability or 'headaches' dull out. To neutralize their power to make them weak or to make sure their power doesn't get of hand before they learn to use their 'gifts'."
"In other words it put the mind a sleep" asked Tracy
"Are you saying Ashy boy is physic?"
"If he wasn't than he be most likely dead, while Misty said he was sleep," Sabrina said calmly. "But stuff is little stronger than to be just that, I think there more to it."
"So this must be the a new abilities, but what else can Ash do. And if mom right about Ash's abilities what about his.." Everyone looked at Misty. Misty looked at everyone one with a blank face. Only Gary and Brock knew what she was talking about and Brock was gone.
"Well now this will be hard to explain," said Gary drearily.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"You're me? You can't be me because I'm me" Ash looked at his counter part.
"I'm part of you, so I am you Ash and you know that so stop trying to denied it." Ashura smiled at his confused part. Ash knew he was telling the truth but he felt scared of him. He knew Ashura shouldn't be here not like this, not like another him.
Ash looked at Ashura deeply in his cold red eyes. "Why are you here?"
"Simply Ashy boy, to do what needed to be done."
"And what needed to be done" Ash knowing full well that he was not going like his answer.
"To end all the pain that happen to us, to make all the people and pokemon pay for their sins against us. To.."
"Kill them" Ash finished this darker halve sentence.
"I was going to say remove their existence premeditatedly but yeah you get the point none or less"
"I will not let you do that" Ash said glaring at Ashura
"A course you are Ashy boy because you want this to stop don't you." The voices came back even stronger and Ash found his self on the ground again trying to stop the noise and pain. "And the only way to stop it is to make sure they can't do it no more. Didn't we learn that Ash? The noise stopped after we kill those pokemon and everything was good except that Vine woman thinking she can control us, but she only helped us came closer Ash, she helped you find me. Don't you want to stop the pain Ash, I needed your help.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Pikachu looked at his trainer as he slept soundly under the window. But Pikachu knew that this was not right at all. Something kept telling the mouse pokemon that Ash was in trouble he felt something giving off of his trainer as distress, but Ash made no sign of having any problem of sleep. 'Why wish for bad faith' Pikachu trying reinsured his self. However even though he said this to his self he still felt uneasy and continual to watch. Phanpy still laid sleep in his 'happy dream world'. 'I wish I was a Pichu again.'
Pikachu was not exactly right about the little blue elephant, which slept on Ash lap Phanpy also, felt something wrong with his 'daddy'. But unlike Pikachu he was sleep, when he sudden felt his 'daddy's' cries in his head. But instead of waking up the baby pokemon he pulled him in farther into a deeper sleep. And deeper he fell the closer and stronger his 'daddy's' voice was. Soon Phanpy found himself in a black nothingness.
"Dad..." The baby was confused as it walked in the abyss. "Daddy" Phanpy said again. "Phanpy phan phanpy" he said meaningless sounds out loud. 'Why am I speaking human speech' the young elephant like pokemon thought to himself. Phanpy had no idea where he was. One second he was having a nice dream of playing tag than next he heard a cry of his 'daddy'. He ran toward the cries but somehow fell here. "Daddy where are you" thinking that finding his 'daddy' was more important at the moment.
It was very big to small pokemon and scary. There was nothing there but pitch-blackness and soft cries of his 'daddy'. But as he got closer to his 'daddy's' sadness he started to hear many voices. Voices that sounded like his friends but Phanpy knew better than that because his friends were nice. These voices were very loud and mean calling 'daddy' names they whirled around the abyss like cold wind, depriving any warmth. Phanpy knew that 'daddy' voice came from here and started run toward the middle. But the voices did not like idea of the baby elephant trying to get through so they pushed the Phanpy back from his goal.
They tried pull all hope from the baby body but Phanpy did not let their word persuaded him to turn around. Phanpy knew they were lying and trying to make him go away from his 'daddy'. 'These very bad voices are hurting 'daddy', they making him cry. I have to tell 'daddy' not to listen to mean words' Phanpy though. Phanpy pushed himself harder and harder against the wind like voices until he saw what he was looking for, his 'daddy'. The voices did not hold no more power over him when he saw his 'daddy' but there was a small problem there was two 'daddy'.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Vine was very very angry. She knew Ash will not listen to Shadow word of obedient but before she can play her card something else happen. The child threw her 'child' out of his mine. Shadow couldn't even defend against this new power and thrown. If it wasn't the fact that he was mostly a ghost type he would have hit the wall, instead of simply going through it.
She knew Ash was not mentally stable to push Shadow out of his mind. Right now that was his weakest spot, to attack and convince him to be loyal. Than she remember something. When she tested Ash's brain waves before Ash had produced two way of thinking, one was his original thoughts the other was aggressive. His original was almost became mere clay in her hands, with his confusing and sadness. But his aggressive side became untrusting, and resentful. His mind split into two different people. 'If Hazel did not interfered I could of made both mind one.'
"Maybe this won't be so boring after all" the sly comment by Lust. As she look at her 'brother' coming back from who know where. "So Mistress what will we do now" The women was as red as pepper and most likely as hot as one.
Prof. Vine calmed her mind to think clearly. 'If I can't take him from afar than I take him while he is close. That boy will not ruin my work. "Lust I think you get a chance to play with your bother yet" Lust smiled at the women understanding the 'play' very well. "But I don't want you to break him. I want in one piece. Do you understand?"
"A course Mistress a course" Lust said happily.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ash wanted to say 'yes' to his counterpart but deep inside of him he knew he couldn't fall into 'his' way of thinking. Ash held other people feeling on a crystal glass pedestal. Fragile but also beautifully important feeling, that what they was. It was not like him to throw that in the wind. He pushed back the voices as far as he could until they were just whisper of doubt. He struggled to his feet drunken like but managed to stand firm and looked into Ashura's eyes with great determination. "I guess I have to teach you the hard way" said Ashura with a smile.
"Misty always says I bit hard headed" replied.
"Well let me help crack that head open" Ashura said as his body started to morph into the multi Eevee form. Ash's eyes widen as he watched for the first time the change that accord in front of him. He had felt the changes happen to him but now he knew what he looked like. The black fur and red circle that belonged to Urmbeon, the large ears, tail and yellow jewel of an Espeon, the red scales like fin that ran down Ashura's back from the water pokemon Veporeon. The human like pokemon shift his position on all four reach he could of surly stand on his two hind legs and growled baring his white fang.
Ash thoughts yelled out with great stress. He did not what to do. Ashura looked as if he was about tear him shreds. Ashura pulled back to pounce on him but Ash did not move, not because he was scared because he knew he can't hide from him. He couldn't hide from him even if he wanted to. Ashura movements were fast as jumped in air teeth bare ready to sink into Ash skin. But there were another movement that was equally fast. It was blue ball and it hit Ashura dead on the in head. It was more of a surprised to Ashura as it was to Ash. But Ashura quickly got it wits about him landed flawlessly away from the blue ball.
The blue ball landed in front of Ash and unfolded, a long nose with red strips appear as well as two big ears with two red strips on the end, and a short tail and for small legs. Ash was not only surprise that he was here but what came from his mouth. "Daddy are you ok" Ash blinked a couple of times as he looked into Phanpy black eyes.
"Yeah sure, thanks to you." Ash said unsure if he was hearing thing again. Phanpy gave him the biggest smile that only he and his best friend Togepi could achieve, this calm Ash though of doubts of his sanity. Phanpy was here in this place but how?
[Well well well, what do we have here a small baby to the rescue to your destruction. For shame Ash you could do batter than that.] Ashura looked at the small pokemon that stared with defiance.
"I won't let you hurt my 'daddy'; you're a very bad thingy. You try to hurt my 'daddy' with very bad words and lies." Phanpy prepared his battle stance focus on his opponent, he eyes narrowed and his ear was turned back. Phanpy four legs were spread out to give him his best balance and speed. Every part of him was focus for this battle, only his nosed twisted with anticipation. "'Daddy' we can bit this bad thingy" Ash never saw his little pokemon so ready to battle.
"Phanpy this is not normal" Ash tried to think best way to explain it to young minded pokemon, but he was sure even if got one of his older pokemon he wouldn't be able to explain. "He's really strong, and he's a part of me, but it very mean and it might hurt you badly Phanpy. I don't want you to get hurt."
"Yes I know it like 'daddy' but it not you you. He very very bad and make you sick. He doesn't belong here. And 'daddy' not bad, so I have to fight bad part because it hurting you 'daddy' and we must win and we will win." Phanpy knew that this 'thingy' was 'daddy' but it been corrupted and try was trying to take control over his true 'daddy'. "Daddy we must fight" he repeated again.
A boost of confident that Ash forgotten he had grew but no where near into a massaged tree that he once had. "Your right Phanpy, we have to and we will win." Ash said a the last part doubtfully
[A forgotten dream that should stay forgotten] Ashura growled. He was not happy about how the little pokemon pulled Ash back to his old self. But what do he had to worry about he still felt Ash fear, and unsure.
"Phanpy Take Down" Ash commanded his little blue pokemon. Phanpy pushed his little body full force toward Ashura. Pulling his whole body into this run, but Ashura had different idea, as he faded into the darkness around him, just before Phanpy hit him. Ash and Phanpy was a lost for a moment unsure where he went. The answer to the question soon was answer as two glowing red eyes appeared from above the elephant pokemon and came crashing down with his claw extended. "Phanpy move he above you" Ash yelled to his pokemon.
Phanpy didn't even looked up as he took his legs and jumped backward from his in coming enemy. The move did little even if Phanpy dodge Ashura's first attack he didn't dodge the Slash that follow up. Phanpy screamed in pain as the sharp claws ripped into his side drawing blood. Phanpy stagger back a bit with pain but lunch his self for a quick Tackle but Ashura easily dodged the close range Tackle with Double Team and quickly used his tail for a Cut attack sending Phanpy back to where Ash stood. 'He too fast for Phanpy, I can't do this to him. This battle is not fair.' "Phanpy you have to stop now you can't fight him."
The baby pokemon stood on his weary body looking at Ashura before him. "No 'daddy' I c..c..can beat him for you. I can. Please 'daddy' trusts me, we can't stop." Ash looked at the baby a little unsure what to do. He had a bad feeling that this was like Pikachu's battle and it might end like it.
'No' shaking the bad feeling that was remerging. "If you ready to fight Phanpy than I won't stop you" Ash said proudly to his pokemon. 'But how do I beat him? Phanpy is not that fast; I have to think of something.' "Used Rollout" Phanpy quickly turned his self into a ball and started to spin toward Ashura. Ashura smiled to himself as decided to finish this battle. He opened his mouth and used Watergun. Ash saw this happened but decided not break the attack. "Phanpy spin as fast as you can straight toward him."
No sooner than Ash said that the powerful blasted of water hit the pokemon knocking him back. But Phanpy never let up his form and landed like spinning tire stuck in a ditch. Phanpy spinning as fast as he can making the gusher of water split apart and forming a path straight toward Ashura. Ashura could not let up his attack but he knew another way to deal with this. His yellow jewel sparked electric bolt through the water making it connect to the small blue pokemon. But he did not stop his attack and Phanpy finally reached his goal hit Ashura right in his face.
Ashura was forced back with snarl of anger more than pain his tail flickered dangerously back and forth. [There no more time for games] Ashura roared. A red blackish aura surrounded the Ashura and than Phanpy as he was lifted off the ground.
"Nooooooooo" Ash yelled. Horrible memories flashed back in his mind. Phanpy struggled in the physic gripped like Pikachu did before him. "Stop it"
[Oh does this hurt you as much as this small pokemon. Poor Ashy boy] Ashura smirked. He no longer feared Ash will to fight. He felt his kind hearted double fall into his despair. [Well it just you and me for the moment small one]
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Pikapi pi pikachu" (Ash, Phanpy wake up please) Pikachu shaking his trainer than trying to arose Phanpy. But neither responded to the mouse pokemon concern cries. "Pikachu pika"(Wake up) Pikachu tried again but there still was no avail. Pikachu was getting mad and scared so he charged his cheeks for Thundershock, that when he heard Phanpy mumble in his sleep.
"Phanpy phan Phanpy" (Daddy are you ok). Pikachu stopped his wake up call. And wonder what type of dream Phanpy was having. But than Ash mouth move to a response, his voices would have been lost in the air if anyone else was in the room. Pikachu looked back and forth knowing that this was more than this than what he was seeing. Pikachu was listening to the conversation between his small friend and his trainer. He figured that they were battling something that was inside Ash, something that was causing Ash great pain.
Whatever it was it was strong and it was trying to consume his trainer. Pikachu wanted so much to help fight this unknown enemy but he was out here and they where, inside Ash's head. Pikachu hated the feeling of helplessness he had no idea how to help his friends. Pikachu watch unsurely as the battle continued, he finch every time he saw Phanpy in pain, he couldn't help feel that Phanpy was giving everything he got. Also because of Phanpy Ash voice was growing stronger and louder, but that dark feeling wasn't letting up.
Than a red blackish dark aura consume his trainer than it surround the young pokemon that struggled against evil aura. The aura was stealing the young pokemon breath away from him. "Nooooooo" he heard the dread and fear in his trainer voice. "Stop it" the last part drifted in to air like the first time he heard Ash speak.
"Pikachu pika pi pipikachu pikapi pikachu" (Don't give up Ash, you can win, as long as you don't give up we right by your side) 'Please Ash' Pikachu thought as a tear feel from his eye. 'I'm going get help don't you dare give up.' Pikachu thought as he ran out the room and down the stair.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ash heard Pikachu voice cut through his fears. Anger overpowered Ash thoughts and being he was not going to let Ashura cause anymore harm. Ash body sifted and changed just the same as Ashura. Still fear lingered in his mind when he changed but he had something, no someone else to worry about. Ash reached into his power quickly with fear that if thought about it he would never be able to do it. He reached and pulled on the power 'but how do I use it.' Ash looked at Ashura who still had Phanpy in his physic grip.
Ash used only move he could think of that he knew he could do and ran full forces Tackle knocking Ashura out of his physic hold of his pokemon. Ash landed on his feet, while Ashura slided on his side. Ash growled in a deep voice [Leave him along.]. Ash reached back into his power not sure if it was going to work or how but he wanted this over now.
[Do you think you can defeat me that easily] question Ashura as he got up. Ash and Ashura stand on four as they both looked at each other as perfect mirror. Both having their ears draw back teeth bare. Ash's brown eyes stay focused on Ashura's red eyes, both waiting for any move from their default stance.
[No I don't think, I know] and with that Ash charged up a......
SD: Cliffhanger ^_^
Lime: I guess you have to wait until lazy Star starts writing again.
SD: I'm not that lazy and I working on it now. So don't fret yet at least.
Lime: R&R if won't know what move Ashy boy is about use.
