Chapter 4: Serena's Dilemma
After Serena's big dinner was over, she went up to the room she and her friends were renting. She brought out Fennekin, Pancham and Polly the Poliwag out for her to groom. She still remembered the conversation she heard from Ash and Clemont.
"Serena?" a child's voice asked as Serena looked up to see Bonnie at the door.
"Bonnie." She said as she then smiled. "Want to help me groom my Pokémon?" she said as Bonnie grinned.
"Yes please!" she said as Dedenne came out of her bag with a brush as Serena's Pokémon went over to her. The two enjoyed each other's company grooming their Pokémon. Bonnie then looked at the girl who sometimes was like an older sister to her. "Serena are you okay? You seem so sad." She said. "Your still not upset about today are you?" she asked as Serena gasped at this and shook her head.
"No Bonnie, it's about Ash." She said as Bonnie looked confused.
"Ash, what about him?" Bonnie asked as Serena just took a deep sigh.
"I heard him and your brother talking outside." She began to say. "I heard him saying that even after the Kalos League he wants to stay here with me." She said as Bonnie smiled.
"Well that's good isn't it? You two being together?" she said as Serena smiled.
"Yes, I like being with Ash but…" she paused as she looked down at Polly as the Poliwag looked up at her "He said he would give up his dream just to help me." She said as Bonnie squeeled in delight.
"Oh that's so romantic! He helping you become Kalos Queen." He said as Serena then looked upset.
"No it isn't Bonnie!" she yelled at the girl as Bonnie then looked scared. "Sorry Bonnie, I didn't mean to yell at you." She said as Bonnie nodded.
"That's okay." She said accepting the older girl's apology. "But what's wrong with him helping you?"
"Yes, it's just that I don't want him to give up his dream just for me." She said as she looked out into the night sky. "It's like I told him at the summer camp, I want us both to achieve our dreams together." She said as she looked back at the young girl with the smile. "And I think I just found out how." She said as she pulled out a flyer. "When we first arrived at the theater before Ash came I saw this." She said pointing at it. "It says here that in a next year they will open up showcases all over the Kanto Region." She said as Bonnie smiled.
"That's great Serena, that means you can travel with Ash back to your home region." She said as Serena frowned.
"The thing is, Ash already told me he already beat both the Kanto gyms and Battle Brains." She said.
"Don't worry Serena, I'm sure he'll say yes." Bonnie said as Serena nodded.
"I hope your right Bonnie." She said as she then got up from the bed. The girls and the Pokémon made their way down to the lobby where they saw Clemont and Ash waiting for Nurse Joy checking on their Pokémon. "This is it." She told herself as she walked down. "Ash…" she started out as her boyfriend looked at her. She then clapped her hands together tightly, closed her eyes and bowed to him. "Please let me travel with you to Kanto!" she said as Ash was confused.
"What do you mean Serena?" Ash asked as Serena then lifted her head opened her eyes and blushed.
"The thing is, I know you already participated in the Kanto League and the Battle Frontier there but look." She said as she pulled out the same flyer she showed Bonnie. "They're going to do Pokémon Showcases over their next year." She said. "But I'm sure they will let you if they can reenter the Kanto League so we can still travel together." She said as Ash then smiled got up and embraced her.
"Serena, I would love to continue traveling with you." He said as Serena then felt water in her eyes as she snuggled into Ash's embrace more.
"Thank you Ash, that means a lot to me." She said as then there was one more thing she had to settle.
