I don't own Pokemon.


Chapter 5: Boss Vs Freak!

"What do you think you're doing here, Kai?!" said Ash, standing up with anger in his eyes.

"I came to bring you back." said Kai with a malicious smile on his face.

"I'm never coming back to the circus! I want my own life!" said Ash, standing his ground.

Kai looked down at the brunette that was sitting on the ground and smiled as he thought about something.

"If you come with us, we won't hurt your lover." said Kai, smiling maliciously as he looked at the brunette.

The raven-haired man got scared and looked at the brunette next to him before feeling something around his neck.

Kai had wrapped his right arm around the chocolate-eyed man's neck and was holing something against his back.

"Come on, you brat. It's time that you get back for your next show." said Kai, pushing the man towards the guards.

Before he knew it, Kai was on the floor with a foot on his throat.

He looked up and saw the raven-haired man standing above him with a devious smile.

Soon, the man was tackled off of Kai by one of the guards and the man with the top hat stood up as the raven-haired man was reeling from the pain in his back from hitting the ground hard.

"So, you wanna fight? How about a fight between just us and no one else?" asked Kai, handing over the gun that he held and motioned for his guard to move away from their star.

"Y-yeah. I agree." replied Ash, slowly getting up.

"Ash-" said Gary, starting to protest, but was interrupted.

"Stay out of this, Gary. It's my fight." said Ash, glancing over at the brunette.

The brunette nodded and ran back from the battle ground to allow his lover to fight his own fight.

"If I win, you come back and stay with the circus for the rest of your life." said Kai, smiling.

"If I win, then I get my freedom and you leave me and my lover alone forever." said Ash, getting into a battle stance.

"Agreed." said the two in unison before starting to fight.

The raven-haired man started and aimed a punch at Kai's face before getting punched hard in the stomach.

He landed a few feet back and worked on getting the air back into his lungs before getting back up.

It was Kai's turn to attack and before he knew it, he was on the ground, face first, as he was tripped by the chocolate-eyed man.

Kai got back up and soon they were engaged in a fist fight before the raven-haired man did a roundhouse kick and knocked the ringmaster onto the ground.

(With Gary)

No one noticed that he slipped into the lab and called Officer Jenny to come and arrest the ringmaster from the circus in Viridian City.

He explained what was happening and how he wasn't sure if anyone would survive the fight.

Officer Jenny said that they would be there in less than ten minutes and to keep an eye on the two as they fought.

The brunette tried to calm himself down as he watched his lover fall to the ground as he was punched once again by his boss.

He went back out to the battle ground and hoped that the teal-haired officer would be able to make it before he lost his lover.

(Back With Ash)

He was slowly sitting up with an arm around his stomach as it still ached from the first punch.

He was breathing heavily as he got up and slowly let go of his stomach as he held a fist out.

"You are pathetic. You can barely place a punch on me. You better say goodbye to you lover as I can tell that you've already lost." said Kai, laughing maliciously.

"Shut up! I'm just getting warmed up!" said Ash, looking at him.

Before the ringmaster knew it, he had received multiple punches from the brat, causing him to take a few steps back.

He placed a hand onto his cheek and saw blood as he looked down at his hand.

He was then roundhouse kicked again onto the ground and pinned by the raven-haired man with a hand on his throat and his body covered by the brat's.

"I-I guess…this means…that you…win…" said Kai, a bit muffled as the raven-haired man applied pressure onto his throat.

"Good." said Ash, smiling deviously as he let up his grip on the ringmaster.

"But I still get the last hit." said Kai, pushing his hand into the man's stomach.

The chocolate-eyed man screamed in pain and collapsed on his side onto the ground next to the ringmaster as he held his belly and saw blood seeping out between his fingers.

The brunette ran over to the man on the ground and noticed that Kai was getting up with a knife in his hand, covered in blood.

There was a loud bang that came from the entrance way and they found Officer Jenny and her officers standing there with guns pointed at the ringmaster and his guards.

"You are under arrest for multiple accounts of abuse and attempted murder." said Officer Jenny as her officers arrested the ringmaster and his guards.

She went over to the two males and ran into the lab to get Professor Oak and Tracey.

They ran out and saw a pool of blood that was starting to form by the raven-haired man.

They noticed that Gary had taken his own shirt off and pressed it against the man's stomach to help slow down the bleeding.

Between the three of them, they rushed him into the lab and Professor Oak and Tracey worked for a couple of hours to stop the bleeding and see how back the wound was.

While they were working on the man, the brunette called the man's mother to let he know what had happened and before he knew it, she was waiting with him to see what would happen to her son.

"Mrs. Ketchum, I finally admitted my feelings towards him." said Gary, looking at the floor.

"Let me guess, he returned your feelings?" asked Mrs. Ketchum giving him a small smile and he gave her a nod.

While they were waiting for word on the man, they turned the TV on and found that the circus had been shut down and that Kai was in jail for a long time for the abuse and attempted murder.

(A Few Hours Later)

Professor Oak and Tracey came out with an exhausted look on their faces, but they gave the two smiles nonetheless.

"Good news, he survived and is doing well with recovering. He'll be back to himself in no time." said Tracey with a smile.

"The bad news is that we found that his stomach has grown very weak from everything that he did in the circus and he will have to take medication to keep everything working and to build up some strength back." said Professor Oak with a stern face that relaxed after he gave them hope that the man will survive and have a normal life.

"That's great! Can we see him, Grandpa?" asked Gary, breathing a sigh of relief.

"Right this way." replied Professor Oak as he led the way to the raven-haired man's room.

When they walked in, they could see the bruises already forming from the fight and the bandages that covered the wound.

Chocolate eyes were fluttering awake and he blinked a couple of times to clear his vision before seeing his mom and lover there.

"Hey. Sorry to worry you two." said Ash with a small smile.

"As long as you're alright that's all that matters, honey." said Mrs. Ketchum, placing a hand on her son's cheek.

They all had smiles even after Professor Oak explained to the man about taking medicine for his stomach.

Before long, it was getting late and the others has left to head off to bed except for the raven-haired man and the brunette.

They talked a little bit before the brunette asked him if he would go on a journey with him once he's healed and the raven-haired man agreed.

"I love you, Ash." said Gary with a smile.

"I love you too, Gary." said Ash, returning his smile.

They kissed as they were excited about what was in their future.
