Chapter 5 – A dicey Encounter

Ash, Brock, Pikachu (who is still under Ash's hood) and Lucario made their way to their private area where the Mt Silver Elite Four lived which was just past the PokéPark, when Ash turned into the PokéPark instead of taking the hidden route to their home, Brock asked Ash where he was going.

"I have a promise to keep." Was all Ash said as Brock jogged a bit to catch up with Ash.

Meanwhile at the other side of the complex.

The group of traitors and Barry were going from hotel to hotel trying to find a place to check in but everywhere was full, little did the group know that two people and a Pokémon had gone to every hotel manager (there were some humans working in the complex that Scott and Mr Goodshow had handpicked) and told them not to let the group to have any rooms in the hotels, they were only allowed rooms in the Pokémon Centre. Said group were currently finishing their lunch in the hotel that the group of traitors were trying, and failing, to get into, as they left they saw the group of traitors and Barry arguing with the receptionist.

"How annoying the Twerps are after all these years." Jessie commented on the situation.

"Have you noticed that Dawn does not seem happy to be with them and Red and Rocky never said anything about Barry being at the house?" James observed.

"Yeah, so why is one Twerp not like the Twerps, and why is dere a new Twerp also?" Meowth wondered.

At this moment Iris made a comment about the receptionist being a little kid and she rolled her eyes, doing so she notices Jessie, James and Meowth watching them. "Hey, it's Team Rocket!" Iris shouted. The rest of her group turned around to see their enemies, as they started to pull out their PokéBalls a voice called out from the crowd telling them to stop, Paul emerged with Looker both of them staring at the group of Traitors like they were diseased.

"These people and Pokémon have left Team Rocket and have formed their own group which works alongside Looker to stop team's like Team Rocket." Paul said.

" I can vouch for this," Looker began to say, "Have none of you noticed that there has been no further activities from the major criminal gang's these past few years?" Looker addressed everyone present, some people nodded at his words, "It is thanks to Team Trainer, I still don't like that name guys, that the regions are safe."

"Firstly, we put our past behind us when our old enemy helped us seven years ago," Jessie said, then she looked at Looker and said, "Secondly, what do you mean that you don't like our new name?"

"Well I wanted Pokémon Rescuers." James said.

"I voted for Top Cats." Meowth said.

"Wobbaffet!" The blue Pokémon said appearing out of his PokéBall.

"I was pushing for The Wobba's." Meowth translated for everyone, only Jessie, James and, Paul and Looker understood what Wobbaffet had said. (A/N as Jessie, James and Meowth worked with Looker in their spare time he eventually found out about Ash and Brock, Looker had learnt a few tricks from Ash and his friends and this was one of them.)

"Fine but we are watching you." Trip said.

"Whatever." Jessie replied and she walked off to the toilet.

Dawn then turned to her group and said, "Guys, keep trying for a room, I need the toilet." With these words she ran over to the toilets because she actually wanted to ask Jessie about the person that helped Team Trainer seven years ago.

In the PokéPark

As Ash, Brock, Pikachu and Lucario looked around the PokéPark for the Sceptile that had belonged to Max, a voice entered Ash's head, it was the voice of the Genetic Pokémon Mewtwo, "Ash, as soon as you are done with the task at hand, you need to meet me in your room."

"Why Mewtwo?" Ash responded telepathically, Brock noticed the look on Ash's face and realised that he was talking to Mewtwo through Telepathy.

"The Alpha Pokémon, Arceus has summoned you to the Hall of Origins," Mewtwo answered, "He said it was urgent."

"I understand," Ash said, "I will be there as soon as I can." With these words, Ash felt Mewtwo's presence leave his mind. "You know, I have not contacted my father in a while," Ash said out loud, "I think I will call him before the opening ceremony,"

Brocks eyes lit up at Ash's words, the Mt Silver Elite Four had decided to talk about important information in code whilst out in public, so Brock realised that Arceus had summoned Ash to the Hall of Origins and it was urgent. "Well, we better hurry up on that promise you made then." Was all Brock said in reply.

Ash nodded, then he closed his eyes and shouted out with his mind, "Sceptile, I am here as I said I would be." Ash and Brock stood there for 5 minutes until they heard anything, or as it actually happened, Ash and Lucario sensed something, using their Aura, moving at a fast pace towards them. Seconds later, the female Sceptile from before had appeared in front of the group.

"So who are you?" The Sceptile asked.

Ash bowed and said, "My name is Ash Ketchum, although I now go by the name Red Satoshi, this is Brock Shard, he goes by the name Rocky Roller now."

"Wait, are you the Ash Ketchum and Brock Shard that I have heard about from numerous people from my travels with Max?" Sceptile asked in awe.

"Well, if Max was snarky about it then yes." Brock answered.

"Wow," Sceptile said, "I am standing before Legendary People."

Ash had managed to get out of his habit of rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment, but this was one of those rare moments that the habit showed itself.

"Thanks Sceptile," Ash said, "Like I said earlier, I have a male Sceptile who is a very strong Pokémon, he took down a Darkrai in the Sinnoh League nine years ago, and he can also Mega Evolve so he would be able to help you train for that if you want."

"You think I will be able to Mega Evolve?"

"Ash is able to bond instantly with most Pokémon he meets," Brock answered, "That is why Ash has all of these adventures, because Ash has an Aura that is calming to most Pokémon." Sceptile looked amazed by this.

"So, will you come with me?" Ash asked holding out an empty Pokéball.

Sceptile thought about it for a moment before answering, "Yes, but I would like to fight your Sceptile when it's Mega Evolved first please."

Ash smiled at this, he replaced the Pokéball in his pocket and then grabbed another from his belt, releasing his Sceptile in front of the female Sceptile, he looked exactly like her, but he was bigger, had his signature twig in his mouth and he had a Sceptilite on his back resting between the top yellow orbs.

"Are you two ready?" Ash asked.

"It will be interesting to see how the traitor has raised this Sceptile." Ash's Sceptile said as he cracked his knuckles.

"Wow, you are massive," the female Sceptile exclaimed when she saw Ash's Sceptile, "I will enjoy this battle."

Brock stood in as Referee as he would always do, "Are you two ready?" He asked, when they both nodded Brock said "Battle begin."

"Sceptile let our Aura's become one!" Ash called out whilst pressing the Key Stone embedded in his glove, at that moment tendrils of blue light came out of both Ash's Key Stone and Sceptile's Sceptilite, when the tendrils met they became a golden colour, Ash's Sceptile started to glow, once the glowing died down to reveal Mega Sceptile.

"Great, now Leaf Blade!" Mega Sceptile raced forward at an alarming speed at the other Sceptile who countered with her own Leaf Blade. The two of them were at an impasse until Mega Sceptile smirked at pushed some more, Sceptile stumbled under the pressure before being enveloped in a green glow, her ability Overgrow had been activated. They were once again at an impasse.

"So you're good at Hand to Hand combat," Mega Sceptile stated before jumping back and saying, "But how do you fare at Ranged attacks?"

Realising what his Sceptile wanted to do, Ash called out, "Daybeam!" Mega Sceptile released a ball of pure solar energy before realising a powerful solar beam attack. Due to using Sunny Day and special training to get the charge time down to a minimum the attack could be launched straight away.

Sceptile did not stand a chance, soon after the attack hit her, Mega Sceptile stopped the attack and resumed his original form, Brock ran forward with a Full Restore to get Sceptile's health back up due to her being on the brink of conscience, when she was able to stand, Ash walked over to her and asked again. "Would you like to join my team?"

Sceptile nodded and when Ash held out the Pokéball this time she did not hesitate to touch it.

Once she was captured, Ash let her out and asked his male Sceptile to introduce her to everyone, once they were gone, Ash bid farewell to Brock and went on to the Elite Four's house whilst Brock went to find the group of late comers from the Kalos Region.
