Back again for a longer chapter than the last, this chapter was going to be the one where Ash starts training but I've been busy with school work and I wanted to get a chapter up sooner than the last, but this is still the start of another plot and with it more battles, so on with the chapter

Chapter 9: Forced To Leave.

Delia had come back from the ranch, even though Ash had sobered up, she was still enraged at his state. "What was you thinking?"

"It was just a little, calm down." Ash lied.

"I just don't want you drinking, it doesn't run well in the family." Delia felt awkward saying that, Nate put his hand on her back, comforting her, he looked towards Ash, telling him not to say anything.

"Just... Don't drink all the time." Delia walked up to her room, slightly dragging her feet, once she had gotten up stairs, Cynthia turned towards Ash.

"I forgot to tell you, Lance called and he wanted to talk to you." A smirk cracked through Ash's lips, he knew what Lance was calling for and with pace, he walked over to the video phone and dialed his number.

The black screen lit up with his face "Hello Ash, I've heard about the bank robbery, do you know anything about it." Ash's face contorted, not knowing if his thoughts about his brothers part in the situation. "Not much aside form what was on the news."

"Really you don't know?"

Ash scratched the back of his head "Well I can't remember too much about last night." the grin had come back to his face.

"Well being with Coeden will do that to you."

Ash raised a brow "When have you met Coeden?"

"Anyways I've called you because, the league season is starting, wondered if you wanted to take the title of my hands?"

"You want me to challenge you?"

"Yes, I want to retire soon, your brother has offered me an island to live on."

"Well... When is the opening?"

"In about 5 or 6 weeks, thought that I should tell you in advance, so you can train."

"Oh, thanks"

"I didn't mean it like that."

"I know, I'll get training soon." Ash hung up the call and walked back into the living room, the TV was playing news about the attack

TV: "The bank was left in tatters as an explosion from the bottom and the top of the building, most of the captives had been released but the falling debris killed 10 of the 46 captives, I'm here with one of the survivors..."

Nate looked towards the door in anger and disappointment as Ash's suspension of his brothers actions grew larger.

"Well, Lance said I should challenge him for Kanto champion, should I go for it?" Ash asked.

"Don't see why not, Barry couldn't get you there so it my turn." Garry said.

"Wow, call me out." Barry said, a bit annoyed at Garry's cockiness "If you think you're so good why don't we have a battle?"

"Alright then." Garry said standing up.

"I like how this changed from me challenging Lance to you two having a battle." Ash joked.

Once Garry and Barry was outside they ran towards the ranch field, everyone else lined up against the ranch fence.

"Whatcha got for me?" Barry said mockingly.

Garry pulled out three balls and opened each, revealing Zapdos, Moltres and Articuno "This good enough for you?" Garry replied, in a similar tone.

Barry pulled out his pokeball and released Heatran "3v1, seems fair."

Heddwch ran up next to him and Entei appeared next to Heatran "Can I fight Dad?"

Coeden snapped back from his trance of pain "Well as long as you remember that you feel everything he feels."

"I know." Heddwch turned to Barry then to Garry "You can go first, just remember I haven't battled in a while."

"Wait, is he allowed to battle? Isn't the legal age 10?"

"Not in Golau."

"Well ok then, Articuno use ice beam on Entei!" 'I shouldn't attack him first, but it's not a strong attack so' Garry thought

Articuno pointed her head up to the sky, a cold mist formed around her beak and then a solid beam of light blue ice soared towards Entei.

"Move out the way and use flamethrower!" Entei jumped out of the way as flames flew out of him mouth, the speeding train of flames surrounded Articuno in fire, the screams of pain coming from Articuno shook the windows, once the attack had finished she stood of the ground shaking, Garry with open jaw couldn't believe what he had seen "No one do that much damage in one hit, especially a kid who's a fourth my age!?"

"Heddwch, tone it down a bit, this is Barry's battle."

"Heatran, use Rock slide!" Boulders from the nearby mountain, started to roll down the hill and once they had gained speed, jumped from the face of the mountain and started crashing down wards at them, Zapdos and Moltres escaped there path of carnage, but Articuno got the full force of the attack, the first rock to hit her cause gashes and bleeding, and forced her to the ground, the rest buried her.

"Return!"

The red wave infiltrated the rock, bring her out of the battle, in raged by her sisters injury Zapdos turned the sky dark and sent a bolt of lightning down on Entei, the sudden attack sent electricity though Entei's body but the screams of a young child with 100 million volts coursing though his veins made there skin crawl, Heddwch lied on the ground, twitching violently.

"STOP!" Coeden shouted but before he could run onto the field, Heddwch twitching stopped and he lied motionless, Coeden ran into the field and lifted his sons head onto his knee "No...no, no, no not again, I can't lose you." Heddwch laid still "Call an ambulance." Everyone stood in shock of what just happened "FUCKING GO!" Brock ran into the ranch as Cynthia and Delia came out "What happ...NO!" Cynthia ran to Heddwch and then turned to Garry "What the hell was you thinking?"

"It wasn't his fault Zapdos attacked with out him telling him to." Barry defended.

A black void opened below Zapdos and dragged him in, he soon fell down down from the sky and left a small indent on the ground, Zapdos started to twitch violently as Darkrai floated towards him.

"Make him stop Coeden!" Garry shouted.

Coeden just continued to look at his son with anger and sadness, Cynthia and Delia tried to get Coeden to stop, as the nightmares caused Zapdos to shock himself and claw the fur drawing blood from his face, the nightmares stop as the ambulance approached the ranch, Coeden lifted his son into the back of the ambulance, followed by Cynthia and set off for A&E.

Nate started to pace up and down the porch, Garry and Ash walked over to him.

"What's going to happen? Is there anything we can do?" Garry asked.

"The only this that could save you is if Zapdos died, is Heddwch passes on you and anyone who gets in the way is dead!"

Garry stepped back in shock as Nate sighed "This isn't the first time, he had another son, Zak, we all got kidnapped and well, lets just say there is a reason why a group is no longer here, sigh, the only thing you can do is go with Ash to training, Barry as well, no-one except family should be here."

"Look, please can you apologize for me, Zapdos has never attacked with out my say and..." Garry was had too many emotions to finish his sentence.

"I'll try" Nate turns to Ash "You'll have to go training in the mountains, I'm surprised that they let an ambulance through Viridian." Ash nodded and ran back to his house to pack for the weeks ahead.

Ryusui was sitting on the roof of the ranch, with his head in his knees and tears in his eyes, Luca walked from behind his and sat down "What's a matter?"

"Dad, is this like what happened with... With Zak and Rio?"

"I hope not." Luca brought Ryu close and put his hand on his back.

"Dad?" Ryusui looked up at Luca "Since me and Ash are linked... Would I... Would I die as well?" Luca just kissed the top of his head as he leaned into his side, slowly sniffling.

Ash burst though the door soon followed by Barry, Garry, Dawn and Delia, Ash turned to Delia "I think you know why Lance called me."

"If you want to go it's fine." Delia found it hard to say those words "But I think you might be over reacting with Coeden."

"He's not." Brock said as he and Nate walked though the door, Nate continued "Coeden had another son who died, he... Didn't handle it well."

Delia covered her mouth with her hand, knowing what he was implying, her fears of where her sons had gone to had strengthened "Ash, Dawn come with me." Nate climbed into his room, Ash and Dawn soon followed, once out of site of Delia, Nate pulled out a box from underneath Coeden's bed and pulled out a box containing pictures of him, Nate, Ley, Dio and others as well a book and a necklace, both baring Orin's "Ash, Coeden doesn't want you to know about... Us... But if my fears come true, you will need to ware this" Nate lifted up the black chain "But you have to swear upon the Orin." The book that Nate held was the original rules of The Orin, written 200 years ago in Altomare.

Nate held out the book "Once you swear upon the Orin, there is no leaving."

Ash nodded and walked up to the book and laid his hand upon it.

"Do you swear royalty to The Family?"

"I do."

"Do you swear to abide by the rules set by the Furui Mono?"

"I do."

"And will you protect all those of The Family? or walk the Distortion Realm for eternity."

"I do." The twisted snakes on top of the book started to glow with a bright light, like burning magnesium, the light ran though Ash's finger tips, burning an Orin shape onto the back of his hands then slowly the glow faded into his skin.

Nate handed Ash the thick, black chain "Try and keep this hidden from mum and welcome to The Family."

Dawn stayed a distance from Ash and Nate, not knowing what was happening "Oh and the Orin's protection should carry to you, but that's only limited until there is a... 'Blood link'" Dawn nodded, not understanding what real danger could happen.

They all jumped down from the small hole that was Coeden's 'door' Garry and Barry had already packed up and was waiting by the door "Hurry up guys!" Barry shouted.

"Or he'll sue you." Garry joked, knowing it will annoy Barry.

"Ok I was 10, let it go already."

Ash and Dawn ran up the stairs to there room, Ash started to pack but Dawn stood by the door "Ash... Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I think anyways, I can feel something burning in the backs of my hand."

Dawn gave a look of concern, worried of what Ash had gotten himself into "Don't worry, I doubt my own brother would get me killed." Dawn, still not fully convinced, started to pack her bag."

Saffron City Hospital.

Coeden paced up and down the halls, a look of mixed emotion plague his face, the smell of anti-bacteria filled all of the hall ways, the deathly silence was broken by Luca carrying a weak looking Ryusui in his arms, eyes red, his state brought him to realization, he will lose his son, one again.

"You ok?" Coeden asked, Ryusui nodded, too weak to talk, he reached towards the back of his head, Coeden stopped him and took off his bandanna off, he opened both of his eyes.

'Thank you' He said, using telepathy.

"Come on." Coeden and Luca walked towards Heddwch's room, the room was dark apart from a light that which lit up the white sheeted bed, Luca laid Ryusui next to Ash, tears now crashing down around him, until the bed seemed to sink in around Ash's feet.

"Rio?" His deceased brother sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Ash.

"Reminds me of Zak." Ryusui didn't know what to say, Rio had large gashes of his face and body and a missing ear, when Ryusui looked at Luca he stood motionless.

"Only you can see me." Rio walked up towards him "Look, I know what you did and why." He looked to the side in shame, the anger of his brothers death had effected many of the group, Luca, himself and Coeden "But you have to let it go, I'm not longer with you, there is no reason to beat you self up about it."

"Well I'm going to be going you soon."

"Who are you walking to Ryu?" Luca asked, Ryu sat up further to look around the room, his brother was no ware to be seen.

The slow beep of the heart monitor slowly started to speed up, Ryu was forced back into the bed though pain, Luca ran to his side "Just... Just calm down Ryusui, Dad's here." Luca said trying to stop his violent twitching, tears forming in his eye's of the approaching doom, Ryusui still rolled around in pain causing the tears to fall out of his fathers eye, as he slowly dies "It'll be over soon."

Coeden and Cynthia stood by Ash's motionless form, his pain masked by his unconscious state, as the beeps got closer and closer together Heddwch's Orb around his neck started to glow, getting brighter as the beat slows and Ryu's twitching stopped.

"Entei..." Coeden said with a smile.

A Hour Ago, After The Fight.

Zapdos turned the sky dark and sent a bolt of lightning down on Entei, the sudden attack sent electricity though Entei's body, but the screams of a young child with 100 million volts coursing though his veins, Heddwch lied on the ground, twitching violently.

"STOP!" Coeden shouted but before he could run onto the field, Heddwch twitching stopped and he lied motionless, Coeden ran onto the field, Entei slowly got to his feet and glared towards Zapdos "Father will want to see us." He said, sending a cold chill down his body, Entei turned into a ball of flames and disappeared.

?

Entei appeared on a blanket of clouds, light filled the sky, but with not clear source, he walked slowly, looking left and right as he did, until the clouds split apart and revealed a glass stair case on top of Mt Coronet, he climbed the stair case.

"I thought you would come here."

"Father, he's only a child."

"The son of the man who almost killed your brother!"

"Rayquaza's attack was a accident!"

"Anyways that's beside the point, I will not delve into this matter."

"So you're just going to let him die?"

"I stick by my word."

"Well if you wont do anything, I will."

"You are willing to end you life to save a human?"

Entei just looked towards the creator, with the same serious expression.

"As you wish." Arceus summoned thin orange spears from the sky, which penetrated though his fur, after a few seconds of blood curtailing screams, Entei turned white and broke into pieces which turned into mist.

Hospital

The beeping returned to a gradual pace, Ryu started to breath heavily and vomited blood off of the side of the bed then returned back to his original position, motionless. The Orb the hung around Heddwch's neck had lost its glow, now just spirals of smoke.

Luca glanced at the orb and then to Coeden "I'll tell him when he wakes up."

"Cynthia, can you give me and Coeden a moment?"

Cynthia nodded, kissed Heddwch on the forehead and left.

"You ok?"

"Yeah."

"What about Garry?"

"Sigh, I don't know, I'll say that I wont do anything but... I don't trust my self."

"Well Ash and everyone has gone off to train for the champion."

"Umm, ask Zoroark to go with them, just in case anything happens and don't let him be seen." Luca nodded and started to clean the blood off of the floor.

Pallet Town.

Ash, Garry, Barry and Dawn we're putting there bags into Delia's SUV, a strong winds started to form around the mountain "Are you sure you want to go today?"

Ash shut the car boot "Yes, we'll be fine it's only one or two hour drive, we can make it before it hits."

"Ok." Delia patted down her trousers "I don't have the keys."

"I've got 'um" Barry said, shaking the keys.

"Well I guess we're ready to go." Ash hugged Delia "Sorry we didn't stay too long."

"It's ok, have you remembered underwear?"

"Really mum? This again."

"The better task is for him to keep them on." Barry joked.

"Barry! That's not like you."

"Well Garry wasn't going to say it, he's hanging on a death wish."

"Can we go now!?" Garry said nervously.

Ash pulled away from Delia, got into the drivers seat and drove off.

An Hour Later.

The SUV sided around the beady road, a shear drop on the left kept them on edge as the storm approaches "Ash we should probably stop, the weather's worsening."

"We'll be find"

"Ash we..."

"We'll be fine.'" Ash interrupted as he was going around a corner, drifting slightly as the wind forced them closer to the edge "ASH STOP FUCKING AROUND!" Dawn screamed, Ash managed to regain control over the vehicle and pulled into a cave, Dawn immediately got out of the car and slammed the door in rage.

Ash looked back at Barry and Garry, who were both trying to support themselves using the sides of the car "I didn't think I was that bad, sigh stay here."

Ash got out of the car and walked up to Dawn who was sitting on a rock looking at the rain that danced in the wind, he crouched next to her "I'm sorry, I guess I'm not the best driver."

"You was messing around Ash, you being shit at driving didn't have." Dawn looked at Ash's deep brown eyes and seemed to get lost "That's one thing I hate about you."

"What?"

"You're so hard to stay angry at." Ash leaned in and kissed her, Ash pulled away when he heard Garry and Barry shout "Ash, you should come and look at this."

Ash and Dawn walked hand in hand over to Garry and Barry who were staring down the tunnel "Do you see those eyes?"

"There rocks." Barry said.

Ash walked further down the tunnel and bent down "Sigh."

"What?"

"There eyes." Ash was knocked backwards and landed on the bonnet of the SUV, he immediately got up and pulled out Pi.

"Pika!"

The eyes slowly approached from the darkness, until a silhouette a a large, dragon like Pokemon, the outline slowly got closer until the Pokemon was visible.

"Tyranitar?" Pi said.

"Pikachu?" Tyranitar said, Pi ran up onto Ash's shoulder "What?" Ash took a second look and realized who it was "Larvitar!?" Tyranitar nodded.

"How do you know who he is?" Dawn asked.

"I hatched him when we was going around in Johto, we returned him back to him mother, well I guess we should introduce you to everyone." Ash released all of his Pokemon who all stretched and looked over to him.

"Well you defiantly seem more confidant then the last time we met." Charizard said.

"Yeah." Tyranitar got onto one knee "Who are you?"

Umbreon hid behind Pi "Come on, he's not going to hurt you." He slowly crawled next to Pi "He was attacked by Team Rocket about 4 months ago, he lost his voice and he doesn't know how to use telepathy, so we have no way of communication" Umbreon had always been afraid of Tyranitar's, the fear come from when he was wanted by Rocket.

"So why are you are around here?" Charizard asked.

Tyranitar's head drooped "Well, sigh, about five or six weeks after Ash left me with my mother, Team Plasma captured her and tested there DNA splicing on her, he died of sleep deviation after 3 years of torture."

"Arceus man, sorry."

"No worries, I moved over to Kanto after she went missing and I've been living here ever since." The storm had died down by this point, the knocked over trees littered the road they just drove up.

"Well its cleared up now." Ash said "Do you want to come with us?"

"Huh, never thought about leaving the mountains this has been my home for so long."

"Well the offer stands?" Pi said.

"But Ash can only hold six Pokemon."

"I'll go." Infernape said.

"Why are you so... Willing to go?"

"I hate battling now, the buzz has run off."

"So are you coming?" Ash asked, pulling a pokeball from his bag in the car, Tyranitar nodded, Ash pushed the button on the front ball and the white beam shrunk Tyranitar into the ball.

"Right everyone back in, I'll let you out when we get to the top and tomorrow, we start training."

The Pokemon disappeared into the balls and Infernape's ball disappeared into the computer system, the group got into the SUV and set off for the top.

An Hour Later.

The SUV pulled up next to the poke-center, everyone inside of the SUV was sleep until Ash shouted "Right guys we're here, time to get up." Garry, Barry and Dawn groggily lifted there heads up "We didn't die, yay" Dawn said.

Ash got out of the car and started to carry the bags into the center, he walked up to the main desk "Can we have 3 rooms." The nurse Joy behind the desk pulled out 3 keys "Here you go, what brings you up these ways? not many people come up here."

"Wow a Nurse Joy with a personality, I'm training for Kanto champion."

"Oh of course you Ash Ketchum, sorry I didn't recognize you, you rooms are in the first flight of stairs and to the left."

"Thank you." The Group all went upstairs and unpacked for a long 6 weeks.

Around 9:00 PM.

Ash and Dawn were both asleep and Pi and Umbreon were at the foot of the bed, Umbreon woke up and started nudging Pi "This is the first time you wanted to train." Pi sat up and looked at Umbreon who was giving him the puppy eyes "Come on." Pi jumped off of the bed, but as they were leaving Charizards's pokeball started to shake and glow "Sigh." Pi tried to pick up the ball "Ow, stop setting the fucking ball of fire so I can pick it up." the ball turned back to its normal red and white.

Once they were outside they all broke out of there balls "It looks as if we'll be doing training tomorrow, Umbreon nodded then looked behind him to see Tyranitar standing next to him, he slowly side stepped next to Pi.

"So what's happened since I've been away? Pikachu."

"Just call me Pi, well I met back up with my dad and I've been training with Umbreon to get his Telepathy working.

"How's it going?"

Umbreon looked at the ground in embarrassment "It's Ok, I knew what was going to happen, well after a about half and hour I started bleeding from my eyes so... Not too far."

"So what's been happening with you Charizard? How's Charla?"

"She's...Fine." Charizard said through clenched teeth.

"Charizard... You are going to need to talk about what happened at some point, it's not good for you just keep it bottled up."

Charizard loosened up "Well... what happened was..."

Flashback.

It was a clear night, with only a few smudges of cloud around the white moon, Charizard was sitting on the beach, watching the backwash carry the sand into the ocean, he hadn't seen Ash in about 7 months, he went back to him after he was left at Charicific valley. Charizard was lost in thought, about his future but his trance was broken by the screams and the red glow that peered over the mountain, Charizard flew over the hills to find his village set ablaze with Plasma Grunts Forcing Pokemon into cages, from Charmander's to Charizard's, a certain scream pierced his ears, as he looked down to his home he saw a grunt gabbing his daughter by the neck and though her in a cage, "Alright that'll be enough, burn this place down, make sure nothing stands!" the rest of the grunts started to pour gasoline onto the already burning buildings.

Charizard's rage boiled over, he flew down at incredible speed, hitting 4 grunts with his wings, snapping there spins in two and killing them instantly, he continued to use his wings and teeth to rip apart every grunt on sight, the screams and the snapping of bones filled Charizard with sinister pleasure, the feeling of blood as there vertebra pieces there skin. After a while the grunts seemed to stop, with only the remains of the dead, blood covered body's scattered around, the only grunt left was trying to crawl for a radio to call for help, Charizard crushed the radio under his foot and lifted him off of the ground, the man's cries of mercy seemed to pleasure him the most, he grinned showing all of his teeth, each one sharp and dripping in blood, tears streamed down his cheeks as he opened his jaw and closed his teeth around his torso and pulled down of his legs, skin and veins attempt to keep the body together as the grunt was slowly torn in two, he started to chew on his head and torso, the skull and rips cracking in his jaws as blood rains all over him from the lower end of the body, Charizard managed to escape from his insanity and realized what he had done, walls dripped with the red liquid "What... Did I." He suddenly turned to the cage where his daughter was being kept, she was facing the other direction with his hands on his eyes "Omega don't look at Daddy, just keep your hands on you eyes and don't open them!" Charizard picked up Omega and ran over to him home, the fire had been put out by Liza who was now sitting by Charla still body.

"Charla, Charla hunny wake up."

"I've been trying ever since they stopped attacking."

"Come on wake up!" Charizard repeated

"Mum?"

"Charla?"

Charla's fire on the end of her tail was slowly dousing until, the end looked like coal with no flame "I'm sorry Charizard..." Liza said.

"No...No."

"Mummy?" Omega said "Come on wake up." Charizard's tail started to glow white, light burning magnesium, Omega was picked up by Liza and they stepped to the other side of the room as the flame surrounded his body, the flames were hotter than thermite, the heat started to reach Charla's tail, rejuvenating her "Mum!" Omega ran over to her mother, Charizard looked down at his body, blood sticking his fur together, he ran out of the house and flew to the waters edge.

Flashback End.

"I washed up and when I walked back in, Charla didn't talk to me for months" Charizard put his head in his hands "What would of you done if you child was being taken away from you?" He sat back up straight "Anything else?"

"How did you come up with the name Omega?"

"Well when a Charmander is born, come out at a certain heat, which predicts what there personality is and if they're healthy, she was 800 degrees, Omega is 800... Are you not bothered?"

"No... about 3 weeks ago I found my mothers beaten corpse, nothing really bothers me any more." Umbreon stared at Charizard in shock "I'm sorry you had to hear that." They all continued to talk about there adventures till the late hours of the night, when Pi and Umbreon went back to sleep Umbreon still had a look of shock "Umbreon, there is allot in this world that people have done to protect the ones they love, sometimes it must happen with the death of others, it's the way things are in this world." Umbreon nodded and crawled up to Pi and fell asleep.

And finished, this story should of been up about 4-5 days ago but, the chapter was planned from the training day and... I got carried away with how Ash got there and sub plots and I didn't want to postpone the chapter for too long, training will be next chapter so expect more battles, also Ash and Dawns relationship will grow more.

Is it just me or does the word count change from the document to FF doc manager?

Until next time.
