Another Adventure
The Pokémon and transformed humans were walking back to the path, with Ash running around, playing with Jessie and James. He suddenly stopped and looked up at Azelf.
"Do you have another name beside Azelf?" Ash asked.
Azelf looked at Ash for a few seconds before answering. "My friends know me as Tyler!"
"Tywer?" Ash said guessingly.
"No Ash Tyler… Your mind is regressing too fast. Pikachu try to keep his human mind active after we leave each other." Tyler said.
"Kay. You hear that Ash?" Pikachu asked only to see Ash playing with Jessie and James again. "Ash you need to stop that!" Pikachu grabbed Ash by his neck and set him down in front of himself.
"Sorry daddy…" Ash said looking down.
"Ash remember I am not your dad. Think of your friends and regain you humanity! That's what you want remember." Pikachu said.
Ash looked up at Pikachu for a few moments before responding. "Sorry Pikachu… It's just so hard to ignore these instincts. I just want to pway more and wet mysef go now."
"But you can't do that. Think about your mother." Pikachu pleaded.
"My mother?" Ash was silent for a few seconds. "She was a Pikachu wasn't she?" He cocked his head to the side and looked at Pikachu. "Just like how you're my daddy!"
Pikachu's face dropped and he just stared at Ash for a few minutes.
"Azelf! What's wrong with Ash now! I thought that you fixed him!" Pikachu yelled.
"I did… His mind must've regressed again."
"That fast!" Pikachu gasped.
"You need to get to Mew fast. I can fix him one more time and teleport you part of the way there, but you must go to the tree of beginning!" Tyler said quickly.
Azelf surrounded Ash and he glowed again. His body lifted into the air and he glowed even brighter. Pikachu was blinded for a few moments until Ash fell back to the ground. However his fur had changed. He was still a Pichu, but his fur was exactly the same as Pikachu's.
"What happened to him?" Pikachu asked.
"I don't know. I was just fixing his consciousness again and it felt like something was pushing them together.
"Pushing what together?"
"His Pichu self and his human self." Tyler replied.
"How much time do you think we have until he regressed again?" Pikachu asked.
"I would say about 2, 3 weeks tops." Tyler said as he flew up to Pikachu and Ash, starting to prepare to teleport them.
"I can teleport you halfway there, but you have to go the rest of the way on your own. Remember to keep Ash's human mind active or he could regress faster."
"I will!" Pikachu said.
"Ok. Prepare yourself." Tyler said as he glowed bright white.
Pikachu held onto Ash as they were pulled into another space. Suddenly Ash started flailing around in his sleep. "Ash hold still." Pikachu said as Ash suddenly fell out of his hands. "Ash!"
The next thing Pikachu knew, he was in a forest. Without Ash.
