Ash's Travel Companions
After leaving the RPA Department Store as they are going back to the castle, once they are back there, they see a lot of people gathering in front of the gate. Apparently, they are waiting for them to come back to the Castle.
Just as the gate opens, Ash and Lillie bring them to the garden as the gym leaders and the Elite 4 are waiting for them. While walking, Ash says, "Sorry to make you wait here for us."
"Not at all. We should have known that you weren't always at home." A girl says with an assuring smile.
"But it is good to see you again, and we are excited to hear that you are going to have a wedding." The second girl says.
As they finally reach the place, the others start to greet them, and the first one is Reisa, who notices a couple approaching her.
"Kris! Silver!" Reisa gives them a hug and say, "It is good to see you again."
"Same here, Reisa. I heard that you are now a Gym Leader." Kris says. "Good for you since you like Water Types."
Silver says, "Maybe I can challenge you to a battle."
"You're on, but not now since we are here for the wedding." Reisa says.
The next one is Tox, who goes to greet two girls who are siblings.
"Tox, good to see you too." One of the two girls say.
"Verity, Emily. It is nice to see you." Tox says as they shake hands.
The next boy goes to Minami as he shows the kiss on her hand and says, "You still look as amazing as before, Minami."
"Stop it, Terry." Minami is blushing as Golly just smirks at her sister.
David notices the fellow inventors as he also goes to greet them. "Good to see you guys again, Mike, Anderson."
"You too. David. How is your gym doing?" Mike asks while shaking hands with him.
"Great, though I barely have any challengers, which gives me more time to make what I want." David says.
"Flomer, Elena, it is good to see you again." Elline says as she greets the siblings. "But where is J?"
"She is still hunting for hunters, kind of ironic since she was one." Elena says with a small laugh.
"Aria? You are here as well?" Serena is quite shocked to see the Kalos Queen, who also arrived with Lisia, the Top Coordinator from Hoenn.
"Hello, Serena. I see you are also here." Aria says with a smile.
"Good to see you, too. Reisa." Just as Reisa is about to chat with Kris, a girl rushes to her as she knocks her down to the floor.
"Get off me, Lisia." She groans as she tries to get Lisia off her.
"Okay, guys, I know it is great to have some reunion, but remember, we still have some people who don't know you are." Lillie says as the others nod.
At the same time, the traitors also arrive back at the castle, but they are shocked to see more people in front of them. Some of them are actually famous, such as Aria and Lisia, and there are also people who they seem to recognize as well.
Ash says, "So the greetings are done, let me introduce my friends." Ash and Lillie walk towards Kris and Silver, and Lillie says, "First, this is Silver, he is Ash's cousin and his rival in the Johto Region. And besides him is Kris, she is our travel companion in the Johto Region as she traveled with me, Ash and Reisa together."
He gestures to Kris and Silver. "This is Silver, my cousin as well as my rival in the Johto Region, and this is his girlfriend Kris, she traveled with me, Reisa and Lillie together."
"It sure is nice to meet you." Kris says, and Gary recognizes her and says, "Wait, I think I recognize you, aren't you Professor Elm's assistant? I remember that you are helping him filling the Pokedex."
"Well, that was me alright." Kris says with a smile. "Though I had Silver help me after Ash beat the Johto League, and we have been traveling together ever since."
Silver says, "Indeed."
"Is it just me, or Silver doesn't seem like a person who will talk a lot, kind of quiet type I assume." Dawn asks.
"Believe me, their family has gone through a hard time because of Team Rocket." Ash sighs. "But we shouldn't mention about it."
Lillie turns to the two siblings and says, "This is Verity and Emily. Verity is our travel companion in Sinnoh along with Tox and Emily is her sister, they are also the current Sinnoh and Alola Queen."
"So you are the Alola Queen, it is nice to meet you." Mallow says as she greets Emily.
"Thanks, I also know a lot about you guys too." Emily says as she greets them, but when she sees Gladion, they both kinda look at each other. Verity says, "So Lillie, is this your brother?"
"Yes, he is Gladion that I told you about." Lillie says to Emily as she kind of blush. Lana whispers to Lillie and asks, "What happened?"
Lillie says, "Oh, back when we visit Cynthia's resort in Unova, we kind of played Truth and Dare for a night. And Verity tries to let her pick a boy she likes, and I accidentally put my brother's picture in it and she chooses that picture."
"I see..." Lana says. "So are you going to ship them?"
"Maybe." Lillie says. "But they should know each other first, since I don't want their hearts to be broken because of a misunderstanding."
"That might be true enough." Ash says.
When Emily and Gladion are talking, Ash continues to introduce the people. "And this is Terry, like us, he is a Legendary Pokemon and the leader of Evils, Evilost. He is also a member of the Beabon Elite 4 and a member of the International Police."
"It is nice to meet you." Terry says with a bow. "I have been hearing a lot from Ash, about how you help him stop Team Galactic, Team Flare, or the crisis made by Ultra Beasts."
"And he is also a Ketchum to be." Golly gives a smirk to Minami, who blushes and tries to hit her, only to be dodged by the attack.
"So are you two a thing?" Serena asks Terry and Minami, and both of them blush once more.
Terry says, "Well, we kind of travel together in the Vigorate Region and we did all kinds of things there together."
"I see. Vigorate Region is a region of fairy tales, it is no wonder you would do something romantic there." Dawn says.
"And this is Mike and Anderson. They are good inventors and they work in Newbam Area in the Rochtai Region, where the science faction is in. Anderson is also a Sevestar Form Dialga in disguise."
"Sevestar Dialga is a Chemical Type, right?" Dawn asks.
"Yes." Anderson says. "And it suits my typing as an Elite 4 member of the region."
"I always wonder which Dialga is the best compare to the two." Kiawe says. "I mean...Chemical Type is good, but Steel Type Dialga is also a good Pokemon as well."
"Well, they are equally strong." Anderson says, feeling Elena is glaring at him if he says something wrong.
"And this is Flomer and Elena." Lillie says. "They are siblings and Flomer is Flamceus while Elena is the original form Dialga. Flomer is the Fire Type Elite 4 member in Chetech while Elena is the Steel Type Gym Leader as well as the Chetech Queen."
Elena says, "It is nice to meet you, though Dawn isn't the first time."
"Wait. You mean you are the one who get into a fight with Palkia in Alamos Town?" Dawn asks.
"Can't blame me since Ash's anger force us to do so, and I regret that I couldn't stop him either back then." Elena says with a shrug.
"I know, and I am sorry." Ash says with guilt. "And the last two you know. Aria and Lisia, the Kalos and Hoenn Queen, Lisia is also a Top Coordinator."
"So you also travel with Ash in Beabon?" Serena asks Aria, who smiles, "Why of course, after all, Grandma Palermo ask us to achieve the Warrior Tasks and to bring the Showcases to the seven regions after all."
Lisia says, "Yeah, and they are so much fun! You guys really need to try it out, you'll regret it if you don't do so."
After the greetings, Lisia says, "You know, I can't believe the two of you are going go get married, we got the invitations and it sure is surprising to all of us."
Elena says, "Indeed. Good for you guys since you two are really destined to be together."
"Thank you guys. By the way, we should come inside since outside is not a best place to talk." Lillie says as they get inside, as they notice the traitors outside the room as they want to listen to their conversation.
The traitors are watching the scene and they are in anger that Ash and Lillie invites the travel companions except them. They also traveled with Ash and how dare they didn't give them invitations.
"Just what are we now in their eyes?" Max says. "Ever since he showed himself as Red, he starts to be all mighty."
"Yeah, and how dare they ignore us for a lot of times." Misty says. "We are as important as the others there as well!"
"And not to mention they also change Dawn's bank account so we couldn't treat her any more..." May says as they are fuming.
"What are you guys doing here?" Aurora notice the traitors after coming back from the lab with Lusamine. The traitors gasp as they notice them. "You know, it is not polite to insult my son or Lusamine's daughter when we are around. Not only that, you are in our territory and I need to ask you to leave."
"Aurora..." They are in fear as Aurora shakes his head, she says, "I am very ashamed of you guys, your greed is the reason that you won't be able to attend the wedding. You think my son is weak like he pretended to be, but you want to take his Pokemon."
Lusamine says, "And it doesn't make sense since why do you want a weakling's Pokemon? Deep down inside you are just jealous of them as you want his Pokemon, saying how he is weak is just to justify what you want to do."
Aurora shakes her head and says, "As the former World Champion, I could have given you punishments." This causes them to shake in fear. "But I won't do it since the wedding ball is near and I don't want my anger to control me."
She turns to Brock and Misty, "You should have been lucky that you still have relatives, our else your gym would be taken away. As the Kanto Champion, I have the authority to do so." This causes Brock and Misty to panic.
Aurora says, "Now leave or we'll make you." Despite the tone Aurora is giving, the traitors aren't going to just back away. So Aurora can only sigh as she glows, as the traitors are once again Teleported away.
Lusamine says, "Geez...they sure know how to ruin the party."
"I know." Aurora says. "Let's get back since I am curious about my son and my daughter in law's planning."
"Sure." Lusamine says as they walk back into the castle.
Here is the final chapter before the wedding. And here is all the travel companions of Red (Ash) and White (Lillie). I hope you enjoy it.
