Chapter 4
Critical Condition
Ash made it to the Pokémon Center, having Serena in his arms.
"Nurse Joy!" Ash yelled, Trying to get her attention.
"Yes, Ash?" Nurse Joy asked.
"I need you to take care of Serena."
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"Arceus attacked her, leaving her in a critical condition."
"Okay, I think she needs rest for a few days though." Nurse Joy told him, at that moment Clemont and Bonnie just entered the Pokémon Center.
"Clemont, Bonnie you're both here." Ash said.
"I came here to check on Serena, I knew she was injured but..." Clemont ended his sentence halfway into it.
"I didn't know it would be that bad." Clemont continued. After a few hours Nurse Joy told Ash that Serena asked if he if he could be with her.
"Serena? Are you in here?" Ash asked.
"Ash... I'm glad you're here." Serena told him.
"I guess that Arceus is a Pokémon we shouldn't battle. I'm really sorry Arceus attacked you." Ash said.
"It's okay, Ash. Serena replied. "You can go without me."
"NO! I'm staying here until you're fine. If Arceus attacks you..." Ash didn't want to continue his sentence.
"Ash, I'm guessing you want to stay here with me, Don't you?" Serena asked her closest friend.
"There's no other place I'd rather be at right now." Ash told her.
"Ash, come on, me and Clemont are going now." Bonnie told Ash.
"I'm staying here to make sure Serena's fine, you two can go." Ash told them.
