A.N: The FanFiction will be in the perspective of Ash throughout this story. It's just the introduction that's in a general perspective. Enjoy!

Ash Ketchum wasn't like other 16 year olds. Normal 16 year olds enjoy hanging out with friends, talking, gaming, the strange ones even liked school, and studied! Ash Ketchum has more absurd hobbies - more dangerous hobbies.

Ash Ketchum enjoyed murdering people.

But only for a reason! Only if they posed a threat to him; only if he had to. He'd never murder a completely innocent person unless there was a reason. And the main reason, was love.

For one person only.

That person was a boy in his class at school: Clemont Citron. Ash loved everything about him: his looks, his personality, his glasses, his mind , and his intelligence. He had the ability to read anyone in the whole school like a book, and he had a photographic memory! Ash found it very useful to trick Clemont into telling him things about other students: things that made his job... easier! Like timetables, hobbies, even addresses! The truth was, Clemont owned Ash's heart, yet the raven haired boy knew that the nerd was incredibly gullible, and that made it easier to... protect him. Even if it could ruin him, it was for the best. Ash had a thirst for blood; he craved it! He'd usually torture his victims first, maybe even make them do little jobs and tasks for him! Ash never set out to be a murderer. He never intended to become this creature of darkness! But he did. And it was all for Clemont.


Ash's PoV.

"Hey Clemont!" A girl with a long blond ponytail said flirtingly! I immediately stop eating my apple and look up at them inconspicuously. My senpai blushed and stammers: "K-Korrina! Hi!" He's so cute when he gets flustered, I've seen it a lot from when I'm secretly watching him and nobody notices. She smiled at him and takes his hand - RED ALEET! She's into my crush! My Clemont! Not hers...

After she's finished toying with him, seducing him away from me, I go up to him, saying: "You like her; I can tell." Clemont blushes and says nervously: "No - not like that Ash!" I roll my eyes and say; "Doesn't she go to the fencing class after school on Wednesdays?" Clemont nodded and said: "Today she has gymnastics from 3:30 til 4:45. Then, she gets changed and goes in for a word with her coach, finishing overall at 5:00 before walking home by herself. I was thinking about waiting for her once but she follows the same routine every day and I have to pick up Bonnie - her routine's really hard! She told me about it once - she hopes on taking gymnastics to a national championship game soon, she's incredibly talented!"

"Wow..." I say, my mind too busy scheming revenge than to be busy thinking of her idle dreams. Korrina is a very talented fighter - too valuable to throw away! A nice little assassin... I thank Clemont for the information and leave, letting him each adorably in peace.

I study Korrina a bit now, seeing if there's anything on the school website - there's loads of articles I can find! Gold medals in Gymnastics, Athletics, Fencing, Boxing and Karate! Yup - too valuable to throw away...
