5º Chapter: Viridian Forest Part 2: The Final Affairs

Ash is currently watching the two flocks getting closer and closer of each other, making him more and more nervous and scared for himself and worried for Pidgeot

"But I can't do anything in this form..." Ash remembered himself and without a Pokémon, he is as good as dead. Ash sighed, there is nothing he can do for now "The best plan for now is to hide and only help if it is extremely needed, don't want to lose Pidgeot but I'll be more helpful if I stay out of the way..." Ash tough to himself, depressed about the fact that he can't help one of his first Pokémon and friend "I'm sorry my friend..." He finished before trying to find cover, but then the two flocks started using Gust, to warn every Pokémon about their fight, but unfortunately, the air type attack move sent Ash flying towards a tree, luckily it didn't hurt much, now that he is a Pokémon, his endurance increased drastically, but he still felt the impact

"That hurt a little..." Ash though while he got himself up and decided to hide there and watch the battle between the two rivals flocks

Ash P.O.V

I am currently watching my friend Pidgeot's flocks getting ready to fight its rival in a deathly battle for the forest

The two flocks finally stopped using Gust and are now standing midair doing nothing but looking at each other, daring the other to make the first move while a dense atmosphere formed between them and silence prevail...

They stayed like that for some seconds, until Pidgeot and a Fearow, probably the leader, started to look at each other eyes...

The battle is about to start...

With a wild screech from both Pidgeot the leader Fearow, the two flocks matched wildly at each other and you could see in their eyes that... this battle may be the last for many of them...

I see that the fight starts with a Gust from both sides, trying to push each other back to win some time to make a plan, in the end it only ended working in keeping them apart for a little longer, so the close range combat started!

Pidgeot's flock divided itself in three groups: one went higher in the skies, the second went head on to the enemy and the third dove to the floor to get speed to an upward attack, finishing up surrounding the Spearow and the Fearow, a really great strategic from Pidgeot

"That's how you do it!" I though, proud of my friend for his leadership techniques and battles tactics. Anyway, the three team of Pidgey, Pidgeotto and Pidgeot attacked the Spearow and Fearow flocks, who were defenceless against the attack because of their surprise, got hit by Air Slash, Tackle and Quick Attack mercilessly, with no way to defend themselves, some Spearows even fainted because of the brutality and force of the attacks, with a some blood coming from their wounds

"I... I never tought that a Pokémon battle could be so... intense and violent..." I thought and out of the sudden I started to have the feeling that I already saw this once, but where? When? I can't remember...

But continuing the battle: after seeing that a few of his allies have fallen, the Fearow leader send out a screech, which, for my surprise, I understood what he meant by that

"Use Drill Run or Drill Peck with Agility to get out of it!" That worked really good as the speed Agility gave them made the Drill Run and Drill Peck faster and more effective, knocking Pidgeot's flock away and freeing themselves

"Good thinking, I will admit..." After that counterattack, which for now I will call Drill Counterattack, the Fearow leader decided to copy their enemies' tactics, dividing themselves in three flocks, turning the battle in a three against three way war

The Fearow's flock started using Hurricane, for the most experience, and Gust to the less experienced. The air types moves changed the wind's direction, which messed up with the three way attack formation of Pidgeot, thus made them collide with each other, into the trees or the direct to the floor, some were knocked out by the attacks, with bruises and scratches all over their bodies...

That was when things got serious

The two flocks were back to equal numbers and they were still divided in three groups each, everyone injured and they noticed that if they keep that up, there would be no winner...

It looked like they were even no matter what they tried

"Even... no matter... what they tried..." I thought, just before a headache attacks me, but a different kind of headache

"It feels like something is trying to get inside my head!" I barely managing to think in this much pain I am currently in

Then, I saw it...

I was in an island, but I can't remember its name. I was invited to there by someone, I'm seeing him, but I can't remember his face, he was using some kind of mask...

The vision continued... Pokéballs... flying around? What is happening? I remember blacks pokéball... I can't let these get close to my Pokémon... Why? What are those?

"What is this all about?!" It is becoming overwhelming, I can't stand this! Someone make it stop!

Then I see one last thing...

Something that should I wish to never see.. But I knew

I have already seen it.. and lived

That truth broke my heart...

"They are... fighting... themselves?"

But the vision suddenly stopped just as the two flocks advanced towards each other, no more caring about strategic, they just want to fight...

Fight... a senseless battle...

Then I finally remember it...

Pokémons, normal and ones with some kind of tattoos on their bodies, fighting each other like mindless beast, attacking and attacking themselves like they want to kill each other...

"No... That is not how we do it..." I feel tears starting to fail from my eyes as I see the two flocks killing themselves and I am unable to even help them, their air types moves keep me from getting close and even if I did it, What could I possibly do? I am useless and the only thing I can do is watch the battle

A Pidgey attacked a Spearow from behind, sending him to the floor, but he didn't stop, he started using Gust on the fallen Spearow, until a Fearow used Peck on him no stop, only to some others Spearow to join him. The Pidgey was starting to lose blood...

"Are they out of their minds?! They wouldn't do it!" I thought, the tears only increasing "They wouldn't..." I finished as I watched two Spearow catch a Pidgeotto by its wings and throw it to a tree, making it faint

After that, a Pidgeot used Air Slash against some distracted Spearows, it managed to make two of the Spearow faint and wounded the wings of another, making him fall but still conscious, but the bird know that it is out of the count

"They need to stop! They have to..."

The battle has turned into a madness 'all against all' fight! All they care now is victory, no matter how...

Then I noticed someone is missing...

"Pidgeot?! Where is Pidgeot?!" I search for him until I heard his screech in the sky, fighting the Fearow leader by himself

The Fearow attacked with Peck, but Pidgeot managed to dodge and counter with Quick Attack, it hit the Fearow, who quickly regained its balance and used Agility to get close to Pidgeot to finally use Fury Attack. It hit five times before the Fearow let go of Pidgeot

The two leaders were tired, wounded and with some blood leaving their wounds, but the war isn't over yet, so they both used Roost, healing their wound and recovering half of their energy, but they keep distance from each other, never taking their eyes away from their fight, even with all the madness under them

That was the moment that would decide the winner of the battle...

Then silence suddenly prevail as the two flocks looked up to see their leaders staring at each other. The final of the battle is near...

The two flocks united with their respective leader, ready to end this once and for all!

While they are up there, I can stop but to feel like I have seen it before... That's when it hit me!

A fight to the death between my friends and strangely similarly Pokémon... A hatred against everyone... Two beings... fighting each other... A senseless battle... Stop...

I see them getting ready to a final move. Pidgeot's flock will use Air Slash and the Fearow's flock will use Aerial Ace

"No... if they all use these move so close of each other with all this hatred, they will-" A screech prevented me from finish my thought. I look up to see that Pidgeot and the Fearow leader are ready to the final attack

"I need to stop them!" I said, no longer caring if they found me, all that mattered to me now is stop the fight!

I get up and I don't know how, started to running towards them, just as they collide with each other, creating an all out war, there weren't even a way to tell who is who! They were attacking everyone that crossed their path, be it enemy or ally...

"Stop!" I screamed, but they couldn't hear me

"Damn!" I said, crying for not be able to help my friend "I need to stop them! There must be a way!" I said, not taking note of a blue aura coming from me

"Pidgeot is in trouble, I don't know where my others pokémons are, Iris and Pikachu are waiting for me, but they all are counting with me and I can't even help myself!" I started crying harder as the blue aura grows stronger and stronger "I want to help... I want to help..." I close my eyes and I'm starting to feel a power inside me...

There is only one thing to do with this...

I open my eyes, that are now growing blue, and the blue aura around me stats to move wildly with so much power that the two flocks stopped their battle and looked at me, surprised and afraid of me

Even I am scared of myself

Finally, I took a deep breath, and let out a scream full of power

"Stop!" I ordered them as I unleashed a pure blue wave, blinding and knocking them out and away from each other, away from the hatred

The fight is finally over...

Sorry, but that's all for now! So what do you all think about it?

And has anyone guessed from where Ash got that memories? Whoever guessed right: congratulation!

Anyway, thanks for reading and i hope to see you all next time! (Metaphorically, since we can't see each other... you got it!)

Until the next chapter of:

'Ash, the Betrayed Master of Pokémon'
