The Kalos Champion Chapter 2
While going out to eat at the most popular restaurant in Lumiose City the group met Bonnie of the elite but not in the way they had hoped to meet. Max tried to be sweet with the girl in return Bonnie gave them rudeness remembering those were the people that hurt Ash. After May confronted her about this Clemont suggested one of them battle his sister in a one on one battle, Max was more than confident that he could defeat her Dedenne and after mocking Ash for being weak Bonnie held nothing back and was able to defeat Max's Sceptile with one attack, now we find him and the rest of the group in a room watching over the badly injured Sceptile.
"Max Sceptile is going to be okay" Brock said he was standing near the window with his arms crossed as he looked over at the boy. Max hasn't left Sceptiles side all night.
"You need your rest the tournament beings today" Iris said from one of the chairs in the room. She was probably the one in most disbelief that Max the kid who defeated both Kantos and Sinnohs frontier lost after one attack.
May was sitting next to her filled with rage at what the younger girl had done to her brother's Sceptile, she was determined to best Bonnie at any costs.
"Iris is right Max you need to rest up we'll watch over Sceptile" Misty said from beside her boyfriend Tracey who had an arm around her shoulder.
"I'll sleep when I know Sceptile is awake" Max said looking at his pokemon and than down to his hands "how could I have let this happen" he thought to himself as he balled his hands into a fist.
"But Max yo-" Misty was cut off by Gary "no let him be he has plenty of energy left for the tournament" he said as the younger looked up at his mentor.
"Yeah you're right" Max said looking at him with a confident look and back to his Sceptile "I promise we'll get revenge for you" he said to himself.
"So if you make it to the top four of the tournament you plan to take on Bonnie" Drew said.
Max gave him a nod "yeah I'll get revenge for what she did to Sceptile".
"Then we should go train" Brock said as Max looked at him puzzled "it's 8 am the tournament is schedule to start at 12 pm" he added on.
"That's right we need to get in some practice" May said standing up from her seat.
"But I can't leave Sceptile" Max said looking back at his pokemon.
"I'll keep an I eye on him after all I'm not competing in the tournament" Tracey said walking over to Max and giving him a reassuring smile.
"Thank you Tracey all right lets go train" he said as everyone gave him a nod and exited the room.
~ Ash, Paul, Korrina and Barry ~
"Oh man I feel like it's been forever since we been to Lumiose City" Barry said stretching his arms upwards.
He, Paul and Ash were currently on a private jet plane that would soon arrive in Lumiose City in 10 minutes and to say he wasn't excited was an understatement he hadn't slept at all in the last 24 hours much to the displeasure of Paul.
"How can you still be so energetic, you haven't slept at all" Paul said taking a sip of his morning coffee, he's known the blonde for a couple of years now and he still hasn't got use to the amount of energy he has.
"Because some people actually love social interaction Paul" Korrina said with a giggle and Ash who was sitting across from her let out a small chuckle.
"Why are you laughing Ash or have you already forgotten the certain girls also attending the tournament" Paul said with a smirk ad he watched Ash tense up.
This made Korrina burst into a fit of laughter "you mean to tell me you're still scared of those two" she said looking at her best friend.
"Oh how our great leader is afraid of the two girls that love him" Barry said shaking his head at Ash.
"I'm not afraid of them, they can just be a bit obsessive over me" he said blushing a bit.
Ash was more than embarrassed at how scared he was of Dawn and Serena handling one was okay but when the two of them got together oh how they would fight to get Ash's attention. He loves how they love him so much but sometimes he is the one that gets hurt when trying to get in between the two. He still didn't understand how those two could be best-friends if they both wanted him.
"You shouldn't be scared yet Ash because the second they get informed that the traitors are at this tournament all hell is going break loose" Paul said.
"That's right they don't know yet remind me why he haven't told them" Barry said looking at his closest friends.
"If we told them the second we found out they would of teared through Kalos to get to them" Korrina said.
"I just hope they don't try to burn Lumiose City for revenge" Ash said hoping that the two girls don't try anything to crazy. It was hard enough to handle one by himself but both of them even Arceus would tremble before the girls.
"Attention young masters we are preparing to land please buckle up" the pilot said through the intercom.
They did as told and buckled themselves ready to land.
When they landed they unstrapped and stood up while the pilot opened the door for them.
"Thank you Kado we'll leave monday if anything comes up I'll call" Ash said to his pilot/butler.
"Very well master Ash enjoy yourself" the old man said smiling at him
When they exited the plane they saw Clemont and Bonnie waiting for them with big smiles, it's been a while since they were reunited.
"About time you guys get here" Clemont said as he brought Ash in for a brotherly hug.
"Good to see you brother" Ash said as she separated from the blonde
"Are we just going to stand here all day or what" said a annoyed Paul
Clemont looked at him and smiled "glad to see you haven't changed a bit Paul" this got him one of Paul's favorite "hmphs".
"All right lets get going" he said getting into the limousine they followed him in.
"So Bonnie did you cause any trouble yesterday?" Korrina said looking at the younger girl who gave her a nervous smile.
"Well about that" she nervously laughed as she scratched her left cheek.
Ash sighed at this knowing she probably already ran into the traitors " what did you do" he said to her.
"Not much all she did was crisp a Sceptile we all know it would of been worse if I wasn't there" Clemont said.
"Who's Sceptile was it? Was it strong?" Barry asked his younger friend
"It was the one they call Max and no he wasn't, all it took was a thunderbolt" she said smiling proudly.
"Figures I bet they probably said something about Ash didn't they?" Paul asked and got a nod as a reponse.
Ash looked at his little sister and smiled he was grateful for how much she cared about him.
"So Ash has Serena or Dawn contacted you yet" Bonnie said to her adoptive older brother with a smirk.
"Bonnie don't even try to play match maker this weekend okay?" He said giving her a pleading stare. She really did act like a little sister to him by always trying to hook him up with either the honey blonde Kalos queen or the bluenette coordinator champion.
"You need to choose one of them already" she said crossing her arms and pouting at him, she loved both the girls and she thinks they are both perfect for Ash.
"Bonnie you can't force him to like either of them just because you do" her blood brother said.
"Bonnie give this knucklehead time to find out which one is he exactly in love with" Korrina said elbowing a blushing Ash.
Paul smirked at how his best friend always turned red when talking about loving either Serena or Dawn.
"Who's picking those two up anyways?" Barry asked them
"Well Serena said she would be arriving the same time as us so she's probably on her way to the gym" Ash said.
"Dawn probably won't be here until 10" Korrina said shaking her head at Dawn's laziness to get up early to meet up with them sooner.
"Have any of the frontier brains arrived yet" Ash said looking at Clemont.
"Yes but the only ones that could attend were Anabel, Cilan and Bianca" he said.
"Bianca's here!" Barry said with hope in his eyes. Everyone on the elite four knew about the crush he developed for the clumsy girl.
"Yes she arrived here wednesday" he said looking at the happy teenager get happier.
"Oh someone is excited" Ash said with a evil grin
Barry turned his head to hide the blush creeping on his face "I just haven't seen Anabel and Cilan in a long time thats all" he said.
"Oh so you're not excited to see Bianca" Paul said with a smirk
"Bianca who?" He said crossing his arms, Korrina who was seated next to Ash shook at how bad Barry was at trying to hide his feelings for the fellow klutz.
~ Anabel, Cilan and Bianca ~
The three of them were currently on the top floor of the gym waiting in the living room for the others to arrive.
"When is everyone getting here" Bianca whined, she's been complaining about them not being there for an hour already.
"It's rare to see you even this impatient" Cilan said to his fellow brain.
"Well that is because she hasn't seen Barry in 5 months" Anabel said smiling unlike Barry who tries to hide his feelings for Bianca, she does not hiding but she is getting impatient that he hasn't asked her out yet.
"Yes! He needs to hurry up already!" She said
The sound of the elevator arriving made all three of their heads turn and see who was arriving. When the doors slid open it revealed a beautiful girl with short honey blonde hair and blue eyes, she had on brown boots with black tights and wore a red shirt with a beige colored jacket, her mega ring was on her left hand like an actual ring and had a gold necklace with a key as a pendant.
"Oh you guys are here" Serena said exiting the door and looking around the living room to see any signs of Ash, Anabel could feel she was looking for him and smiled at herself "he'll be arriving in a bit Serena" Anabel said.
"You know that whole being able to sense someones feelings is creepy at times" the blonde said leaving her luggage near the elevator door and walking to the frontier brain.
Anabel stood up and smirked at her "oh it's weird if I'm the one doing it but if it were Ash it would be okay" she said.
"Whatever" Serena responded "come here it's been too long" she added on opening her arms for a hug.
Anabel giggled and hugged her friend "well being the Kalos queen can be pretty busy so I guess that's a good excuse" she said while hugging Serena.
When they separated Serena looked at Bianca who had a disappointed look on her face and looked at Cilan "is she sad cause I'm not Barry".
"Yes she's been waiting for an hour even though I told her last night that the plane wouldn't arrive until 9 she woke up and us at 8" he said.
"What am I not good enough BiBi?" Serena said giving a pout to Bianca
"No Sere it's just I haven't seen him in so long" the older blonde said sighing.
"Trust me I understand I haven't seen Ash in so long either" Serena said smiling, of course she missed Ash it's been so long since she last seen him.
The four then turned their attention to the elevator doors that opened to reveal Paul who currently had Barry in a headlock and the others walking out embarrassed at how the two teenagers where acting.
"Say uncle" Paul demanded
"Never! I rather be fined before I say uncle" Barry shouted from his position
"Paul!" Paul looked to see who shouted his name and saw a angry Bianca, he instantly let go of his friend and walked away.
"Thanks for that Bianca" Barry said rubbing the back of his neck, he suddenly felt someone tackle him to the ground.
"Oh I've missed you so much" Bianca said rubbing her cheek with his making the younger boy blush a deep red.
"She needs to learn self-control don't you think Serena" Anabel said looking to right to see no one there she looked a little bit over to see Serena doing to exact same thing to Ash.
She looked at the youngest of the elite four and both shook their head at the sight of the two girls.
After the two girls got it out there system they stood up helped their crush up and all sat around catching up on what everyone has been up to lately.
They talked when it was 10:15 they heard the elevator coming up and when it reached the floor they were on when it opened up it showed Dawn smiling as wide as she could.
"Dawn about time you get here" Serena said crossing her arms.
"Sorry but you know how I am" she said laughing rubbing the back of her head. Serena smiled and stood to hug her best friend.
"Good to see you Deedee" she said as they hugged.
"You know I hate that name" Dawn said
"Even if I use it?" Ash said pointing to himself standing behind Serena, Dawn tore herself from Serena and wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him in for a hug.
"No you can use it" she whispered into his ear.
"Well now that everyone is here shall we go get breakfast and then head to the stadium for the opening ceremony" Clemont said as everyone shook their head and all go into the elevator.
~ The Traitors ~
"Alright Emboar use flamethrower" Max said to his fire type. He was currently battling with Misty in preparation for the first day of tournament.
"Floatzel hydro pump" she said as the two attacks collided to make a cloud of vapor.
"Evenly matched not bad" Brock said "how about calling it draw we should all go get breakfast" he said.
"Good because I'm starving" May said as her stomach growled at being empty.
"But I want to keep training" complained the 14 year old.
"No Max, Brock is right we should get something to eat" Gary said walking over to the boy. "Besides you should let your pokemon be healed before the tournament" he added on placing a hand on his shoulder.
Max agreed and left his pokemon to be healed at the pokemon center.
While they walked to place Iris chose for breakfast, Max noticed Bonnie with a group of people walking towards the breakfast place.
"Hey look it's Bonnie!" He said pointing at her and the group.
"Iris" May said running to them with the dark violet hair girl followed her friend.
"Wait you two don't do anything stupid" Gary said running after them along with everyone else.
Ash was in the back of the group talking with Paul and Cilan when he felt two aura essence he hasn't felt in over six years and they were both angry behind those two was Gary and behind his was everyone else.
"Guys there heading right for us" Ash said to his friends everyone minus Dawn and Serena knew who he was talking about.
Paul ran to the front of the group along with Barry while Korrina was behind them with Ash and Bonnie behind her.
"What's going?" Serena said hoping someone would answer her.
"Well you see the people who betrayed Ash have entered the Kalos league and the Coordinator" Cilan said
Dawn went into a rage fit demanding she be at the front of the group to teach them a lesson. It took Bianca and Anabel to hold her back with Clemont making sure Serena didn't do anything hasty either.
When May and Iris made it to them they released their most powerful pokemon Blaziken and Dragonite.
"Come on Bonnie now you're facing us two" May said demanding that the youngest of the elite four come fight them.
She was about to go but Ash grabbed her wrist when she looked at him, he shook his head so she stood in her place.
"Wow picking on little girls that's pretty low for the princess of Hoenn" Paul said grabbing a pokeball.
"Do I know you?" May said with a disgusted face looking at the purple hair teen.
"Well if you must know my name is-" he was cut off by Brock who caught up to the girls along with the rest of the group.
"Paul" the oldest of the group said in shock at seeing how much the boy has grown he looked to right of Paul and saw a teen with blond hair and orange eyes. "So you must be Barry am I right" he added on, Barry looked at him with a stare that could break a mountain in half.
"Yeah I am let me properly introduce myself I am Barry of the elite four" he said, Brock was shocked at this he was one of the new elite for and if he is with Paul that either means he was an elite four member or he is the champion.
He looked at the Paul once again "so you're either an elite four or the champion" he saw the teen put a smirk on his face.
"I'm an elite four but someday I'll be the champion" he said smiling, Ash was also smiling.
"Where is Bonnie we want to battle her" Iris said
"Well you see Ash doesn't want his precious little sister wasting time on you idiots so if you want to fight its either me or Barry" Paul said pointing to himself and Barry.
They looked past another blond girl to see a boy with black hair and brown eyes.
They all shared the same shocked expression when they realized this was Ash.
The 10 year old they knew was complete different from the teen standing there, Ash still wore his hat he wore a blue and white shirt with a black jacket over it he had blue denim jeans and black high top boots on his left wrist he had a bracelet made of leather and he had a gold necklace attached to it was the symbol of sir Arron and inside the circle was his mega ring.
May was the first to come out of shock and laughed "you're so weak you have to hide behind elite four members".
Gary heard what she said and placed a hand over her mouth "listen Bonnie defeated Max after we insulted Ash remember so unless you want your Blaziken next to Max's Sceptile I suggest not pissing them off" he said to the girl.
"Whatever fine I'll battle who ever" She said confident she could take on Paul or Barry.
"Count me in" Iris said along side her friend.
"Paul let me handle this by myself" Barry said reaching for his pokeball.
Paul looked at his friend was thinking if he should join the fun but than figured no since it wouldn't be to fun.
"Alright Barry but don't play around" he said putting away the pokeball that was in his hand.
"No problem I got this all under control" Barry said walking to middle of the empty street.
May and Iris did the same and they were angry with the fact that they think one could take on the two of them alone.
"You're mistaken if you think you can take two of us on" Iris said
"My pokemon won't even break a sweat" he said releasing his pokemon to reveal a Rhyperior.
"You must know Ash, Rhyperior is weak against fighting types like Blaziken" May said, this irritated Gary he said not to piss off the elite four.
"Let's just start I'll show you how strong Ash has made me" he said smirking.
"Dragonite use ice beam!" Iris said as the dragon shot a stream of ice to ground/rock type.
"Rock wrecker!" Barry said as Rhyperior shot the rock towards the ice beam, it went exactly as Barry planned the ice beam didn't break the attack only covered it with ice making it stronger as it connected with the target injuring it badly.
"What!?" Iris said as she watched her Dragon type struggle to stand it's feet.
"Dragonite is part flying so that ice and rock combination did some damage on it" she looked at Brock as he explained.
"Blaziken charge it use double kick" the fire power house did as told as went for straight forward, he jumped to kick Rhyperior in the face but the drill pokemon caught its foot.
"Bulldoze!" Rhyperior slammed it on the ground and lifted it back up to slam and send it flying next to Dragonite.
"That was a ground move meaning Blaziken just took some heavy damage" Max said worried at how much power these people had.
"Listen May we'll grab his attention and you use your sky uppercut on it" Iris said hoping they could cause some heavy damage.
"Dragonite dragon rush!" The dragon flew up into the air and went down with a energy of a dragon heading towards Rhyperior.
"Rhyperior slam your tail to the ground and catch it" Rhyperior slammed it's tail to the ground and picked up it's hands preparing to catch it.
With a big explosion everyone awaited to see what happened and just as planned Rhyperior was locked with Dragonite.
"Now Blaziken go in and use sky uppercut!" May yelled as her blaze pokemon went towards them.
"Rhyperior toss Dragonite into with dragon tail" Barry said as his rock type's tail glew green and he removed his hands and hit Dragonite upperwards while causing damage. "Now use bulldoze on Blaziken" when it turned around the fire type reached it only to send it flying back to its previous spot. "Now close line Dragonite with hammer arm" Barry said as the dragon come down to get hit in the gut with hammer arm and was sent flying back to it's trainer.
"No Dragonite" Iris said as she stood over her fainted pokemon.
Blaziken looked over the hurt dragon type and felt its rage rise.
"Blaziken let's make it pay!" May said as her pokemon stood up and let out flames from it's wrist.
"That's blaze" Brock said
"Blaziken fire spin" the fire type shot fire that went around Rhyperior and made a twister of flames "now turn up the heat even more flamethrower" May added on as the flamethrower made the twister of flames increased.
Blaziken dropped to it's knees smirking at what he hoped was serious damage.
"Wow even with blaze your fire type moves are pathetic" Barry said knowing nothing was wrong with his ground type. "Rhyperior how about stepping out of the flames" he said as his pokemon stepped at of the flames as if if didn't even effect it.
May and the rest looked shocked at what they were seeing, the power of the elite four were on a whole different level of strenght.
"Damn it Barry said Ash taught him everything so he has to be the champion" Brock thought to himself, he looked down and saw his hand shaking.
"Blaziken double kick" May said the fighting type kicked Rhyperior in the face but it did nothing.
"Slam to the ground and keep it there" Barry said as his pokemon slammed Blaziken to the floor and step on it "do it rock wrecker" the drill pokemon launched the powerful rock type move down at Blaziken.
May looked at her pokemon being attacked ruthlessly and fell to her knees "please stop!" She yelled crying.
Barry looked at the girl he didn't care what he was doing this was revenge for Ash.
It was preparing for another attack but was stopped when a Lucario stood next to it putting his paw on the rock types forearm.
Barry looked at Ash knowing it was his Lucario "but Ash after what they did to you" he said.
"It doesn't matter Barry just stop it they know your power, so lets eat I'm hungry" Ash said smiling at his friend.
Barry smiled back at his friend "alright lets eat" he said returning his powerful pokemon.
Lucario was going to walk away until it felt a claw grab its leg. "Never let your guard down burn that weak pokemon flamethrower" May said as her Blaziken shot flames at the steel/fighting type.
"I warned you" Ash said shaking his head at his former companion "Lucario power-up punch" his fist glew and ripped through the flames and hit Blaziken breaking the floor around them.
"No!" May shouted as Gary and Brock released Sudowoodo and Electivire.
"Go Sudowoodo hammer arm" "Electivire thunder punch" both trainers shouted.
"Grab them" Ash said as his pokemon easy grabbed both punches. "You guys have gotten stronger that's good" Ash said smiling at them.
"You're the champion of this region aren't you Ash!" Brock yelled at the teen.
Ash laughed at him "I guess you can find out tomorrow" he said with a smile. "Lucario return my friend" he said as he returned his aura pokemon.
Brock was going to charge the teen but was stopped by Gary "right now our priority is to get Dragonite and Blaziken to the pokemon center" he said looking at Ash and friends enter the breakfast restaurant.
"Yeah you're right" Brock said as he looked at Ash one last time entering the restaurant, "just how strong are you" he thought to himself.
