Author's Note: This it it. The ending chapter to my story. Enjoy

Ash and Serena become one

Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, and Valerie were all still getting breakfast ready. While getting ready, Ash was still thinking of how to tell Serena about his feelings for her. What he didn't know was Team Rocket heard his whole conversation with Valerie and were spying on them now.

"So when do we go catch Pikachu" James says

"We are not going to" Jessie say

"WHAT WHY" Meowth and James say

"Weren't you two paying attention earlier. The twerp and twerpet are in love. I'm not letting this love story get ruined" Jessie says to them

"Who cares about this love story? We are here to catch Pikachu" Meowth says. Jessie gives him the death look which scares him. "I mean of course we care. We will just wait until one confesses"

"Good. Now wait" Jessie says. James and Meowth sigh

Meanwhile

"How do I tell Serena I love her. It's not like I can just go up to her and say it. I've been ignoring her feelings the whole time. I need to make it up to her" Ash sees Ash deep in thought and smiles. Serena also sees Ash deep in thought

" Ash. Are you okay?" She says. Ash blushes

"Yea. I'm okay. Just thinking about the Kalos League" He lies. Valerie can tell Ash is lying

"Uh okay" and she goes back to helping cook breakfast. Valerie walks up to Ash and whispers in his ear.

"When you going to tell her" She asks

"Soon. I'm just trying to figure out how to tell her. It has to be special" Ash responds. Valerie smiles

"I know how you can" Valerie says and she starts telling Ash her plan. Serena sees them talking and becomes full of jealousy. A little bit later, the gang started eating their breakfast. Team rocket was still watching them from afar.

"I'm getting bored. Can we please just steal Pikachu" James says

"NO" Jessie screams. James and Meowth are scared

"But. What if neither of them confess" Meowth asks

"One will. I guarantee it. Now zip it and let me watch" Jessie says and the trio continue watching.

After breakfast, everyone was doing their own thing. Clemont and Bonnie were working on another invention. Valerie was playing with her Froakie. Ash was writing down combo moves how Pokemon could use. Serena was reading a book but keeping an eye on Valerie. After a short while, Valerie got up and said something to Ash. He nods while smiling. Serena once again sees this and can no longer take it.

"Hey Valerie. Can we talk?" Serena says. Valerie nods and they go into the forest.

"Something the matter" Valerie asks

"Yes. You're the matter" Serena says sternly. Valerie is surprised

"What do mean?" She asks

"I see you trying to get close to Ash. Stop it. I don't appreciate you becoming so friendly with the boy I like" Serena says angrily. Valerie just laughs

"You really think I'm trying to steal Ash from you. Well newsflash. I'm not" Serena is confused

"Then why are you trying to get close to him" Serena asks

"I'm not doing that either. In fact I'm helping you" Serena is even more confused

"How is this helping me?" Serena. Valerie just shakes her head

"You'll find out in a little bit" Valerie says and she walks away

"What are you up to Valerie" Serena thinks and she follows behind. After a little while , Ash decides to implement Valerie's plan. He takes his bag and while no one was looking, goes into the forest alone. After a little bit, Serena realizes he is missing.

"Hey. Where's Ash?" She says. The others realize he is gone too.

"Yea. Where'd he go" Clemont says. Valerie smiles

"Guess Ash is implementing my plan. Perfect" She thinks and then says "He must have went into the forest. Serena. Why don't you go look for him?"

"Uh okay" Serena says while looking suspicious at Valerie. She then goes looking for Ash. Clemont and Bonnie look at Valerie

"What are planning?" Clemont says. Valerie smiles

"Let's just say when they get back, things will be different" She responds and she goes to play with her Pokemon. Bonnie and Clemont just shrug. Team Rocket hears this and describes to go see what happens.

Meanwhile with Ash

Ash was setting something up in the forest and listening for anyone coming.

"I hope Serena loves this" Ash think. He then hears rustling coming from trees. He quickly hides. Serena comes out, looks around and continues walking forward to where Ash was.

"This is it" Ash thinks with his heart pounding hard

"Hey Ash. You there?" Serena says. She then steps on something.

"Ow what did I step on" Serena looks down and is extremely shocked. On the ground, there was a message made from pebbles. The message said these words.

"Serena I love you. Ash" Serena is surprised. Ash then walks quietly from behind and puts his hands over her eyes.

"Ash?" Serena says. Ash smiles

"Like my surprise" Ash says taking his hands off her eyes. Serena looks at Ash and begins tearing up

"Yes. Yes I do. Thank you Ash" She says and hugs him

"I'm sorry Serena. It took me too long to figure out your feelings for me. You held these feelings for so long and I just ignored them." Ash says. Serena lets go of Ash

"No Ash you don't need to apologize. I should have just told you how I felt. I love you with the bottom of my heart. Always have and always will" Serena says. Ash smiles and takes out from his pocket a little necklace. Goes down on one knee and says

"Serena Yvonne. Will you be my girlfriend?" Serena emotionally nods. Ash puts the necklace around Serena's neck and the two embrace. Team Rocket, who had been watching the whole thing, were also in tears

"The twerp has grown up so much." Meowth says tearfully. The other two agree

"Okay. Enough emotionally things. Let's give these two a couple more minutes then let's capture Pikachu" Jessie says. Meowth and James nod with excitement

Back with Ash and Serena

"Just don't understand one thing. How did you plan all this" Serena asks. Ash smiles

"You can thank Valerie for that. She was the one who made me realize I love you and she gave me this idea on how to tell you. Had to be quick though but was still able to do everything planned" Ash says. Serena looks surprised

"Did she give you this necklace" She asks

"No. I've had that for a while. Mom gave it to me a long time ago to remember her. I thought I might as well give it to you" Ash says

"Guess I owe Valerie an apology" Serena says

"Let's go back and tell the others" Ash says with Serena agreeing. Ash takes her hand and they both walk the new couple arrived, Valerie, Bonnie, Clemont and all the Pokemon were excited.

"So cute" Bonnie says

"Congratulations" Clemont says

"Thanks everyone" Serena responds and she walks up to Valerie "Especially you. I'm sorry for doubting you. Thank you for your help" Valerie smiles and nods

"How could she not help. She is your daughter in the future" Bonnie blurts out but quickly covers her mouth.

"BONNIE" Valerie and Clemont say

"What does she mean?" Ash and Serena says together. Valerie sighs

"Ash. Serena. I've kept this a secret from you two, but I'm from the future" Ash and Serena are surprised

"Really?" Ash says

"Yes. Long story short. My professor wanted me to test out his new time machine and I tried it out. Got sent here" Valerie says

"So in the future. You are our daughter" Serena says. Valerie nods. Serena tearfully hugs her. Ash joins in the hug. The three hug each other. Suddenly, a big craw comes and tries taking Pikachu. Valerie's Froakie sees this and stops the claw.

"What the" The 5 look to see team rocket

"Prepare for trouble our little love birds"

"Make it double. You're finally one"

"To protect the world from devastation"

"To unite all people within our nation"

"To denounce the evils of truth and love"

"To extend our reach to the stars above"

"Jessie"

"James"

"Team Rocket, blasting off at the speed of light"

"Surrender now or prepare to fight"

"Meowth that's right"

"Wobbuffet"

"TEAM ROCKET" They shout

"Yup. Glad to see you two twerps together but we are here to get Pikachu" Jessie says

"Guess. Take a break. I got this" Valerie says and takes out a second Pokeball

"Eevee. Let's go" out popped an Eevee

"If it's a battle you it's a battle you get. Go Gourgeist" out popped Jessie's grass type

"Inkay. You too" Out popped Inkay

"Gourgeist. Use Dark Pulse" "Inkay. Use Psybeam" Both pokemon launch their attacks

"Dodge it" Froakie and Eevee dodge

"Froakie Water Pulse. Eevee. Shadow Ball" Both Pokemon launch their attacks and they collide with Team Rocket's Pokemon

"Inkay Tackle" Inkay goes to use tackle

"Froakie. Aerial Ace" Froakie collides with Inkay and overpowers it, sending it flying at James

"Gourgeist. Use Seed Bomb" Gourgeist launches seeds at Eevee who gracefully dodges them.

"Bite. Let's go" Eevee bites Gourgeist and throws it flying at Jessie

"This is for always causing my parents trouble. Froakie Water Pulse. Eevee Shadow Ball" Both attack are launched at team rocket, causing them to blast off.

"We may not have captured Pikachu, but at least the two twerps are together" Jessie says

"Doesn't matter cause WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN" Wobbuffet is heard in the background as the trio blast off.

"That was awesome" Ash says

"What do you expect. I am your daughter in the future" Valerie says

"Speaking of that. If you are our daughter then why help us get together when we already going to be in the future" Serena asks. Valerie smiles and remembers a conversation she had with her mom when she was 6.

Flashback

"Mom. How did you and dad get together" a young Valerie asks a grown Serena

"It was before you father competed in the Kalos league straight after winning his 8th gym badge.. He did so romantically. Writing a message on the ground with rocks saying he loved me. He also gave me his oms necklaces" Serena says. Valerie looks excited

End of Flashback

"Sorry. Can't tell you that. You'll find out sooner or later" Valerie says. The others smile at her. Valerie then decides something.

"I guess it is time for me to go back to my time" Valerie says sadly. Everyone's shocked

"Now? Can't you stay till after the Kalos League" Ash asks. Valerie shakes her head

"No. I've served my purpose. I think I should go home" Everyone then hugs her one by one giving their goodbyes to her

"Hey. No crying. Not think you'll never see me again. I am your future child" Valerie says. The other laugh and smiles. Valerie takes from her bag and creates a portal leading back home. She looks back one more time and then walks in with her two Pokemon with everyone waving goodbye. The portal then disappears.

"Well guess we should head for the Lumiose City" Ash says Everyone agrees. They start packing up and head for the Kalos league. While walking Ash thinks of something.

"I'm sure Valerie isn't her real name. I would what it really is" He think as he holds Serena's hand and heads off.

And so with Valerie gone, Ash and the gang head the Kalos League. Is fate with Ash or with he once again come short in winning?

In the future

"Welcome back Ashley" Valerie comes out of the time machine to see a grown Gary Ash and Serena

"Hi Mom. Hi Dad. Hi Uncle Gary" She says as she hugs everyone

"How was the past? Did you meet anyone interesting?" Ash asks. Ashley smiles

"Let's just say I meet some important people" She says while smirking.
