Back again , apology's about the redoing of Chap 3 I just hated that scene with Ash and Dawn and I don't want to go there too soon, this chapter is more about the kids of pretty much everyone from Coeden's side and Ash. Also the time of 3 places is getting hard to track but it wont be for long. So on with the chapter.

Chapter 4: Flames (Emotional and literal)

Ryu, Veigus and Leon were on a boat going towards Leon and Veigus' island, the sun was just over the horizon causing a split in the water, on the left was a dark blue with from the silver light from the moon and to the right, amber coloured water from the sun. Ryu had his head over the edge of the boat catching the wind in his face while Leon was sailing the small boat. Ryu moved next to Veigus "How long will it take?" Veigus chuckled "You ask that every time you come here, Bout 10 minutes". Ryu jumped to the other side of the boat and stuck his head out again.

"You'd should be careful" Veigus looked at Leon with a cheeky grin "A Tentacool might get cha" Leon dropped back onto the boat seat, causing him to let go of the steering wheel making the boat veer to the right, Before Ryu jumped on it with his to front paws of the top and back two on the bottom of the wheel.

"You promised we wasn't going to talk about that! Especially with kids next to us!" Leon said frustratedly.

"Well, you promised that you wasn't going to talk about me wetting the bed, but what did you do?"

"Talked about it... But this is completely different, you didn't get 'things' done to you."

"Sigh, true" Ryu said, forgetting what him and Veigus had gone though.

The group became quiet after that with the only noise to be heard is the humming of the engine and the calming splashes of the water against the boat.

Leon's Island.

Out on the beach laid 2 Zorua's, one male and one female both asleep. The male slowly woke up stretching "Yawn, Yin...Yin! Get up" Yin rolled over "10 more minuets Dad" The male laughed and grabbed her ear playfully "I'm not Dad" Yin quickly got up "YANG! BE CAREFUL! You could of bitten through my ear."

Yang looked at the floor "Sorry" he said embarrassed.

"Oh come on, Ash's probably looking for us" they both made their way towards the house, running in circles around each other.

At the house a small boy, around 5 years old, with short black hair was walking through the house shouting "Yin! Yang! Where are you?" On the boy's shoulder was a sleepy Abra who was the son of Alakazam "They're probably out on the beach, don't worry." Abra said, barely staying awake "Yeah you're right, come on Leon will be home soon."

"Why say come on? You're the one who's walking?" Abra said curing up on his shoulder.

Ash lifted Abra off his shoulder and put him on the ground "Now come on."

The Abra then levitated up "Ha."

Ash rolled his eyes and walked on.

Leon's house, 10 Minutes later (I'm saying Leon's house because it's easer)

Ash was sitting on the stool that surrounded the bar like table when Leon, Veigus and Ryu walked though the door and Veigus said "We're home." Ash quickly jumped from the seat and hugged Ryu, who then jumped on his shoulder as Ash scowled at Leon and Veigus "Why did you take so long?" Leon and Veigus both scratched the back of there heads "I had to do something with Coeden, and I forgot to remind Coeden to come back."

"Sigh, it's fine nothing too interesting happened here, Yin and Yang did a runner."

"I think we could of guessed that, where are they?" asked Veigus.

"They're out on the beach, they'll be back in a minute or two" said Darkrai appearing from the dark hole in the ground which disappeared once he'd come though.

"Where have you been!? You said you was looking after Ash!"

"I was only away for a minute, Coeden summoned me, I couldn't not go." Darkrai said, his voice booming inside there heads.

"When can I be summoned by Ash?" asked Ryu.

"That's quite a skill to do, Puts allot of strain on both of you, and" Darkrai blocked out Ash "Also you have memory's that he might not want to know" Ryu looked down at the ground with regret "I s'pose so" Ash caught on to his feelings and said "Hey, what's a matter?" Before Ryu could respond Ash fell to the ground with screams of pain, as his skin slowly chard, Veigus ran to his side but as he tried to touch Ash, the heat forced him to retract his hand, his body slowly started to burn.

His body now was completely chard as was most of his face, once his face was completely covered, he let a roar which could be heard on the surrounding islands. During the roar a wisp of fire appeared next to Ash and slowly got bigger until a Entei appeared, Ash wrapped one of his arms around his neck. Both Ash and Entei wore a thick gold chain with a red sphere which glowed like fire.

Ash's body soon got back to normal, but his cloths were chard and had holes in them, Leon lifted him onto Entei's back and said "It's about his bed time anyway" Entei then walked up the stares to put Ash to sleep.

Coeden's house, 3 days before Ash's birthday.

It was a cold day, snow was on most of the Islands, the white sheet glistering like diamonds under the sun. Inside the house everyone was packing the last of there stuff.

Ash was sitting on his bed as Rufus knocked on the door "Can I come in?" Ash just nodded and looked back at the floor, Rufus sat next to Ash "How you feeling? I know this must be allot for you, even more so after the whole thing at Leon's"

"I'm fine, just bit shook up, hasn't happened in a while so it shook me up a bit... Uncle Rufus?"

"Yeah?"

"Can I ask you something... Personal?"

Rufus scratched the back of his head, not wanting the conversation to go that way "Sure, what is it?"

"Well... After the whole thing at Leon's Entei took me to bed, but my cloths were burned to he changed me and got rid of them..."

Rufus laughed and rolled his eyes "Stop!" Rufus said going red at the cheeks "I know where you was going with that and no he's in your heart and soul, he's basically you."

"I've never really thought about it like that, thanks."

Rufus just laughed, tasselled is hair and walked out.

Down the corridor was Nate's room where him and Coeden were talking "It'll be fine" Coeden said trying to calm Nate down.

"Well what is she is still angry?"

"She won't, just calm down" Nate then sat down "It's all my fault, if I didn't run off, life could of been so much easer" Nate put his head in his hands, in disappointment with himself "Look, we was angry, Shit if it wasn't you I would of run off, it's not you fault" Coeden clenched his fists "It's Dad's."

Sinnoh, Sunny Shore City, Morning.

The weather was similar to that of Golau, snow covered but sunny. Inside of Ash and Dawn's room, the sun was seeping though the blinds causing lines of sunlight on the floor leading to the bed where Ash and Dawn where lying. They where both lied curled up facing away form each other.

Dawn was the first to wake up, with a wide stretch "Morning Ash" she said turning to him, Ash was awake but was pretending to be still asleep, waiting for her to get changed to avoid the awkwardness.

Once Ash heard the shower come on he got up stretching and yawning, he then looked down at the seat where Pikachu was sleeping to see him awake with a grin on his face

"What are you smirking at?" Ash asked, he then got out of bed and started to get changed while Pikachu was still smirking at him.

"Do you mind not looking while I'm naked Pikachu?" Ash said, knowing that will stop him, Pikachu just shook his head and walked out the door.

Poke-Centre Main Lobby.

Pikachu was sitting at the top of the stairs, staring at Nurse Joy who was staring at the door waiting for someone to come through. "Something is seriously wrong with her, I hope we don't stay for breakfast... Oh who an I kidding, it's Ash of course he'll be having breakfast" Pikachu continued sitting on top of the stairs waiting for Ash or Dawn to come down, not wanting to be seen by the crazy lady.

Ash's Room

Ash was half way getting changed when the shower stopped and Dawn walked out to see Ash's naked from the waist down "OH FUCK...S...SORRY!" Dawn shouted causing Ash to jump out of his skin in fright, and run to the bed to cover his nude body, Dawn quickly ran back into the bath room, Dawn fell to her knees "He probably thinks I was perving on him" Dawn continued to sit on the floor as Ash rapidly got changed and went down stairs to get something to eat.

On his way out Ash bumped into Brock who had the same grin on his face as Pikachu did "What?" Ash asked in frustration, not knowing why everyone was grinning, "Did you?" Brock asked with the same grin.

"Do what?"

"You know..." Brock said still grinning.

"ARCEUS MAN, YOU'RE SUCH A FUCKING PERV!" Pikachu had ran to the hall way when he heard Ash shout "It's ok Pikachu, no need to worry."

"Keep you voice down man! It was only a joke."

"Forget it, lets just go down stairs."

About half way through breakfast, Dawn came down stairs with red eyes and sat down next to Ash, staying completely quiet. After the group and there Pokemon had there breakfast they all gathered around a map "Right where is a few ways we can do this, one cost more, but the other is too close to the time dead line."

"What's the one which costs?" Asked Dawn still nervous to talk "Um... Well... We walk to Pastoria City then get a boat to Sandgem, Twin leaf to see Barry who is most likely going to come with us, back to Sandgem then to Kanto."

"How much will it cost to get the boat there?" Asked Brock, who has stopped grinning after seeing Dawn with red eyes "It'll be about 5 to 6 hundred poke. I hate how you used to be able to catch a lift to Iron Island for free, but now everything cost... Hell, gotta make money some how."

"Saying that, but you'll need to get a job soon, can't be relent on you mothers money for too much longer" Brock said.

"She says most of it was from Dad, but I know she's lying, Dad left twice so why the fuck would he be giving me money."

"Sorry Ash... Shouldn't of brought it up."

"Sigh, it's fine, going to be 21 soon so, I need to get over it at some point."

"Good for you, I think we should take the boat to Sandgem, so you can see you mother before the the big day."

"What about you Dawn?" Asked Ash, Dawn didn't respond, it was obvious that she wanted to stay with them, with Ash. But she told her father that she would be back as quick as possible and take the quickest route home "My Dad will want me back, so... Yeah."

Ash, being the thick headed man that he is, didn't realised why she so desperately didn't want to go, why she wanted to spend more time with Ash, this has always effected Dawn because she hasn't fully realised her self, of course everyone else knows, which it why Norman dislikes Ash so much.

"Ok then, we should make are way to Pastoria, I'll ask Nurse Joy when the next boat goes to Sandgem" Ash walked over to the main desk to ask Joy about times, Brock moved to the other side of the table and put his hand on Dawn's shoulder "Are you ok?"

Dawn laughed lightly "Is it that obvious?"

"Your eyes are red as fuck, what happened last night?"

"Nothing but... I did something really stupid, and don't go there" Dawn said, knowing what Brock was going to say.

"I wasn't, I can be mature sometimes... Do you want to talk about it?"

Dawn started to go as red as a tomato "No... no no no."

"It's all up to you... You sure you're ok?"

"Yes I'm fine, I'll have to talk to Ash about it at some point." Dawn sighed at her stupidity.

Ash ran back and picked up his bag "Come on!"

"What's happening?" Dawn asked, confused at Ash's sudden urge to get away.

"The boat leaves it 20 minutes, come on!"

Dawn and Brock instantly grabbed there bags and started to run out of the Poke-centre, "You too Pikachu." Ash said, Pikachu then jumped half way across the room, onto Ash's shoulder.

"Good bye, come again" said Nurse Joy, once Ash and the group left Joy just continue to stare at the door, wandering when it will happen.

Ash, Dawn and Brock all ran out of the front door of the Poke-Centre and ran to the right towards route 222.

Once Ash and the group got out of the building that acts as a barrier to route 222, a sailor walked up to them "Hey, are you Ash Ketchum? Thiiiii Ash Ketchum?"

"Yes" Ash said, not wanting to sound smug.

"Man I thought I'd never see you, I've met your brother before he seemed nice."

"You've met Lucas?"

"Not him your other brother, anyway I'll let you get going but listen, whatever happens, never lose sight of your dreams!" Said the sailor.

"Other brother?"

"Come on Ash, we need to go!" Shouted Dawn, trying to get his attention, Ash continued to run.

About half way down the beach was the Pikachu 'Fan Club' where 6 Piakchu's and 8 Pichu's were waiting out side who all had seen Pikachu come past.

"AY Pi!" Shouted the largest Pikachu, Pi (I'm calling him that for this and any other scene that contains another Pikachu) Jumped off of Ash's shoulder "Where you going Pikachu?" Ash asked, Pi just waved his arms showing that he'll catch up He then walked up to the largest Pikachu "Never guess what."

"What?"

"I seen my Dad man."

"He ain't dead?"

"Man that's harsh" said one of the other Pikachu's.

"Anyway Kay, we've been through allot, mostly after the first couple of losses, but I'll be heading back to Kanto and probably not be up here for a while, but you have to come visit some time."

"For sure man, yeah say hey to your old man for me."

"Will do" Pi said as he ran after Ash.

"Where did he get the name Pi from Kay?" Asked one of the other Pikachu's.

"It's nothing, come on toe munchers get back in it's cold." Kay said walking back into the club.

Pastoria City, Shipping Dock.

The group ran to the main desk with Pikachu quickly following them, all of them were covered in sweat from running a hour walk in 20 minutes "Have we missed the boat?" Ash asked between pants.

"The boat is just stopped letting passengers on, sorry" Said the lady behind the desk, Ash looked at the boat and saw that there was a rope ladder leading the the main deck "Too late to give up" Ash put 600 poke on the desk and said "RUN FOR THE LADDER!"

They all started to run towards the ladder and Brock was the first one to get there, soon followed by Ash.

"Come on Dawn!" The boat was setting sail as Dawn was running for the ladder, Pikachu jumped clean over Dawn and started to climb onto the deck and watch. The boat was catching up speed and Dawn had her hand stretched out, but there wasn't allot of track left for Dawn to run on "Just a bit more!" Ash shouted stretching as far as he can.

The boat was about to pass the edge of the platform when Dawn jumped for the rope, Ash caught her and held her close, her long blue hair flowing in the wind like the waves of the water, Dawn pulled in close and looked at Ash in his deep hazel eyes causing them both to blush and laugh.

"Do you see it too Pikachu?" Asked Brock, Pikachu smiled and nodded "Well he'd better find out how he feels soon or he's going to miss his chance" Brock sighed for his friend.

Ash climbed onto the boat, then lifted Dawn from the ladder onto the deck, before the group could blink a group of officer Jenny's ran to the group with guns drawn "Put your hands up" said the leader of the group, the strictness of the police variety between regions, but most have had a big tightening ever since Team Plasma took over a leading shipping vessel, "You are under arrests for suspension of attempt grand theft auto, you don't have say anything but anything you do say may be given as evidence in court."

The group all slowly put their hands up, as the officers closed in on them. When they were getting cuffed Ash said "I was the one who told them to get on the boat, they had nothing to do with it, I'll take all charges" The main officer walked up to Ash and pulled out a notepad "Name?"

"Satoshi Ketchum" Ash responded.

The officer turned away "He's gonna want me to... I'm going to have to... Fuck" the officer turned to the others "Let them go."

Everyone looked at her in shock, "You want us to just to let them, go why?"

"Classified information."

The group all were uncuffed, the main officer turned to Ash "You're lucky Satoshi, if it wasn't for your stupid brother you'd be off this ship and in court" she then turned away and walked to the captain's deck to inform the captain.

"Your name is Satoshi?" Asked Dawn.

"Yeah, well it's my birth name, I just got called Ash."

"Well, we learned something from that, what did she say to you?"

"She said that it was because of my brother that we were let off, I'm going to have to talk to mom about this because I didn't think she's talking about Lucas."

The Bow Of The Ship, Half Way Though The Voyage.

Ash was leaning over the edge of the boat, most of the snow around the side of the region had gone, the sun was shining on the clear water, so clear that you can see the the bottom of the ocean and see the Pokemon swimming along the boat.

Dawn slowly creped behind Ash, not wanting to talk about what happened that morning, but something made her keep on walking until she was 5 feet way from Ash, "Ash?" Dawn said quietly, Ash turned around with a red face and was scratching the back of his head "I guess be have to talk about it?" Dawn nodded.

"You didn't...S...See anything? Did you?" Ash said, dying with embarrassment.

"No! No I saw nothing" Dawn said, blushing more than Ash.

"Thank Arceus".

"Are you angry at me" Dawn asked, looking at the ground like a dog who's getting told off.

"Of course not, you didn't mean to" Dawn started to breath heavily as if she was going to start crying "Come here" Ash said with his arms open, Dawn ran into his arms.

Brock had walked over to the end of the over-looking deck to see and hear the confiscation. He walked over to Pikachu who was listening to the whole thing "He ask?" Brock asked, Pikachu shook his head "Sigh, do you think we should no something about it?" Pikachu shook his head "Well... There's a pool at the main deck see ya." Brock ran off to try his luck, closely followed by Toxicroak.

Pikachu just shook his head and looked forwards off the boat, "Sandgem will be about another half hour might as well get some rest" Pikachu curled up in a ball and went to sleep.

Boat's Main Deck, Bar, 5 Minutes From Docking.

Ash and Dawn were sitting at the bar looking out to the main deck to see Brock trying to pick up girls, only to have Toxicroak jab him in the back and dragging them to their feet "You know that will ever work" said Ash "At least I'm attempting" Brock said with his face pressed against the ground.

Pikachu was sitting on top of the roof with Umbreon, who Pikachu had released "Lets try again" Pikachu said, He had bruises on his body and looked weak, Umbreon shook his head not wanting to harm Pikachu any more "It's fine, I would of stopped sooner if it was hurting me too much, go on." Umbreon surround himself with his dark aura and tried to communicate with Pikachu, the aura that surrounded him slowly got bigger and bigger until Pikachu started to bleed from his eyes. Umbreon looked up to see Pikachu on his knees and blood dripping from his face, all traces of his aura quickly disappeared and he ran to his side 'I knew I shouldn't of tried' Umbreon thought.

He jumped down to Ash "Hey little guy, how did you get out?" Ash asked, Umbreon didn't pay attention and grabbed Charizard's Pokeball with his mouth and released him "What's a mater Umbreon?" Charizard asked, seeing the tears running down his face, Umbreon jumped back onto the roof of the bar soon to be followed by Charizard.

Pikachu's body lied mostly still, the bleeding has slowed down significantly but a small pool of blood had formed around his head, Charizard knelt by his head "Pikachu...Pi man can you hear me?"

Pikachu opened his eye a little "Only my dad and Kay called me Pi, why do you?"

"We've been together for about 11 years I just felt that, we're close so... I just think it's more personal, I'll stop if you want."

Pikachu sat up "It's fine" Pikachu looked at Umbreon "I'm fine and you didn't mean to, I shouldn't of told you to do something you wasn't ready for" Piakchu's eyes had gone pitch black.

"Some of Umbreon's aura is still in you" Charizard said, this caused Umbreon to start crying again and run to Pikachu "Don't worry, he'll be fine, now you run along to Ash we'll be down soon" Umbreon jumped down and landed in front of Ash "Look, I didn't want to say this when Umbreon was here."

"What?"

"Aura can't just leave you body naturally, it needs to be bled out."

"WHAT! I'm going to have to make my self bleed to get it out of me?"

"Well that's the easier and faster way of doing it, or we do it the proper way."

"Hows that?"

"You wait a while then it all comes out at once."

"YOU JUST SAID IT DOESN'T COME OUT NATURALLY!"

"Believe me, that shit ain't natural, come on I'll get your pokeball, you'll need some rest."

Charizard flew down from the roof and grabbed Pikachu's pokeball and returned him "Does he need rest?" Ash asked, Charizard nodded, grabbed his ball and returned himself.

Ash turned to the group and said "Well, we are docking now, I'm guessing you will want to come with us to see Barry?"

"Yeah" Dawn said, Both Dawn and Ash looked miserable, Brock also looked sad, because he knows what his friend is feeling but can't tell him.

Love.

Now I know that I said I was going to upload more but, I've got school work and I don't have a time plan for writing, also aura will be a big part of the chapter later on, not major to the main plot, but will make things more fun. Also you may see that I like to abbreviate words, this is because I'm from the north of England so I can't speak normally.

Until Next Time.
