Chapter 13:

A/N:

Brock and ash cooking together yea may be sometime when things get calmer.

Thanks for support here it is.

Speech

Thoughts

Noise? (whatever)


Knock! Knock!

Morning! Open the door daad!

2 minutes came a voice from inside a standard room in the pokemon center.

Don't be so lazy, wake up already dad called ash

Click

What do you want? Richard replied irritated

Some training if you feel like so ash quipped back

Yea 'feel like so', banging on my door at 4 in the morning, go sleep kid

Come on dad! I slept early yesterday, and you are an aura guardian right? What about being ready for any situation at any hour, come oon, I wanna spar pressed ash

No. First, this is not a situation and second, I don't feel like sparing. Yawned Richard

(The sound when pokeball opens)

I won't mind some sparring, haven't been doing anything since days offered lucario excusing himself from the nice warm and big (pun intended) pokeball on his own.

There you have your sparring partner, now go and don't knock this door again grumbled Richard while pushing lucario out.

Meaniee! Pouted ash


Come lucario let's go!

Beat him to the ground for me will ya lucario? added Richard closing the door.

Come on ash is that all you got? Focus! Follow my steps! Anticipate my next move instructed lucario over the noise of blasting aura spheres.

You are too fast panted ash

Excuses won't make you stronger said lucario and smacked ash on head hard.

He is literally beating me to ground, sick bastard. I will show him!

Ash went down headfirst and then suddenly used a hand to somersault and kick lucario in the chin which ruined lucario's balance.

Nicely done kid praised lucario a few feet from his original position.

Well that's payback for you smirked ash

Don't get over your head kid, that was the first hit you had on me in last 30 mins said lucario

Yeah well you are right, I have got a long way before I can even be a respectable guardian agreed ash.

Let's just meditate for now and recuperate offered lucario

Yea sounds like a plan.


Hello…hello.. ash you in there? Open the door fast. Knocked misty standing infront of ash's door.

pika..pika pi

cluck, entered misty

hey there Pikachu where is ash?

Pikaa pikapi Pikachu

Oh sorry, I can't understand you there.. I wonder how ash does that. Now that I think he can mostly kindof talk with pokemons mumbled misty.

Pika nodded Pikachu

Well I Pikachu come on join us for breakfast given that ash isn't here yet. Said misty while picking up the portable incubator.

He isn't there said misty going towards her seat at the window side restaurant table with Pikachu on her shoulder who then jumped on the large table and sat near the window. Misty placed the incubator near Pikachu and started pouring some milk for Pikachu.(do pokemons drink milk?)

Oh he isn't? I thought he would have been back till now you its 8 already. Said Richard

Back from where? Asked brock.

Well he knocked on my door at 4 in the morning asking to spar, so being sleepy and not to mention a bit lazy I just sent him with lucario to spar, but now that I think about it that may have been a bit much, lucario can be a bit too serious while training sweat dropped Richard

Heh, he might have been a bit too excited to have someone to spar, I mean he can't just ask anyone and neither me or misty stand a chance against him said brock

You are right, I would have done the same, now I feel guilty responded Richard

Oh don't worry mister ketchum, he will like it better laughed misty

You are a bit too happy about it misty sweat dropped brock

Here's your order sir said the waiter while bringing a tray full of sandwiches, juice, milk and coffee. (for everyone alright..i am just a bit lazy to write who eats what, may be some other time)

Thank you will you put it down please smiled Richard

Of course smiled the waiter back, placed the tray and went to other table.

Well then enjoy the meal. Said Richard.


ow ow ow.. lucario that was too hard said ash holding his stomach, man this 2nd spar have exhausted me and I am aching all over. Cried ash with crocodile tears

now young master, you do know what you humans say, no pain no gain. Let's go then, you must be hungry, I know I am. Said lucario while moving out of the clearing.

Grr…

Right! Said ash starting to run and just in typical ash fashion tripped over some log and hitting his already scraped elbows down.

Why me! Again with the same crocodile tears (may be real this time) ash screamed to the sky and above.

Somewhere a big bulky (evil?) man laughed maniacally, misty started laughing while drinking her juice and as expected chocked on it, and brock slapped her back hard(just kidding), brock rubbed her back trying to sooth her.

Come on young master, you are not a kid anymore that I need to carry you on my shoulder's. said lucario sounding a bit exhausted.

Young master! am I now, not the 'kid' huffed ash and started walking.


Hey guys went somewhere? Called ash complete with waving arm and that goofy smile of his. Standing a bit away from the door of pokemon center.

Ehh? You look like hell! Ash what happened? Replied as worried misty with Pikachu on her shoulder.

Pikaaa called Pikachu with sparks off his cheeks.

Just a bit of training lady Misty, nothing to worry about. Replied lucario

A bit!? mumbled misty with a blank look, Richard, pikachu and brock sweatdropped. Lucario lucario just looked around as if checking the weather and our hero just stood there and looked around as if nothing was wrong with torn clothers, scrapped knees and elbows with scratches on face to complete his look.

Young master, cleanup and then go eat something, judging from the present position of master and your friends they already have had breakfast. Said lucario moving in the pokemon center.

Yes master lucario. Said ash sarcastically while also blessing brock and co. with a betrayed look, including Pikachu as well. He then went to his room leaving behind a group of sweatdropping people and pokemon. If one looked close enough a cute little sweat drop could be seen the egg too (lucario's egg).

Okay ash meet me at the entrance of pokemon center in an hour sharp, we are already late as is, we need to head to saffron. Called Richard with no humour in his voice.

Okay dad, see ya. Called back ash while entering the lift.


1 and half hour later (why can't everyone be on time)

So everyone ready to roll? Asked Richard while adjusting his driving seat.

Yes sir! Chorused the three humans and throw a pikapi in the mix from our cute little pikachu.

Okay then, let's go said Richard while pressing the throttle.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So ash how was the spar? Asked Richard a few minutes after the drive began.

It was enlightening, you know I don't have a decent sparring partner here, no offence brock and misty. The two mentioned nodded. So it was really good to know that I am not strong enough till now, lucario literally beated me in the ground. This will at least keep me from going way over my head. Replied ash

That was a very mature answer son, and don't sweat it, at your age I would not have been able to last a spar with lucario and walk around so easily. Laughed Richard. You don't have any real life experience in fightining and lucario is a very experienced fighter, not to mention he is a pokemon who can fight easily with aura even without the special training he and I went through. We will train you son, if we get through what exactly is happening now. Mumbled Richard at the end.

Thanks dad, and what did you say at last I didn't quite catch that. Said ash

Nothing. Brock told me about the dream you had, I am sorry to break it you but that dream is true. I don't know about that humanoid creature you saw, but something is definitely disturbing the legendary pokemons and the way that brock mentioned it, it looks like the legendaries from orange islands is what you saw and that is exactly the place where weather is just running rampant. Said Richard in a grim tone.

Misty and brock were listening nervously, and were sacred of where this conversation was heading. Pikachu was rubbing his cheeks with ash trying to comfort him and ash was hugging the egg.

But why? I mean why did I get this dream? Asked ash nervously.

Not a dream, I would say a vison, or communication. I have said it before son, your aura is very strong, stronger than me, I guess I understated it before, I can't say how strong your aura is, but it is so strong that even the legendaries can feel you even at such distance and can communicate with you. You may after all be the one reffered as chosen one. Said Richard resigned. He feared for the wellbeing of his son even after how proud he was of him.

Chosen one? Asked brock.

I will explain more clearly after ash's test. Replied Richard

But how will you save the legendaries Mr. Ketchum? Asked misty

Don't worry kids, I may not look like it, but I am strong and so are my pokemons. We can handle it just fine. And to be safe I have requested help of another guardian, he will be meeting us at saffron. Answered Richard trying to make sure the kids felt secure.

Oh that's a relief said misty.

But dad you said we were the only family of aura gaurdians. How come there is someone else there too? Asked ash

Yes we are the only family ash, but there is another guardian there who mysteriously can use aura. I will clear more things after the test, till then just relax and prepare for it as much as you can. Said Richard

Everyone remained silent after that, some thinking how they can help everyone, and some just outright scared of what was going to happen. Even after all that they had a belief that the gaurdians will keep everyone safe.


A/N:

DONE! Thanks for review and PM. I will just add writing the fic in my schedule. Lets see where this goes.

And I try to end the chapter like the original pokemon, but it won't be there for long. I could have stretched this chapter more but I didn't want to, but don't worry chapter length will increase soon.

READ AND REVIEW GUYS/GALS.
