Ash Ketchum: I Found My Destiny.
Chapter 13 - Checkmate. I've Found My Destiny...
(A/N: Welcome everyone to the final, yes final chapter of Ash Ketchum: I've Found My Destiny...My Other Half! Firstly I'd like to thank everyone who's stuck with me so far in reading/reviewing this story! Now secondly, onto the chapter!)
Recap:
Ash's Pov:
Ash raised his hand when the blue haze appeared, I could faintly comprehend the girl behind me somewhere attacking Domino the same way.
I couldn't take it anymore.
"Ash what's wrong with you?"
"Misty stop!" Delia screamed.
"ASH! NO!"
I stepped in front of Delia at the last minute when the power was released.
"MISTYYY!"
"MISTYYY!"
The shout came from Delia and echoed throughout the room. A heavy boom was heard ricocheting somewhere behind them and got an immediate response from Ash.
The blue aura faded from his palm as Ash's wide eyes were pinned to one figure in the room.
Misty's.
She had jumped in front of the attack that was meant for Delia.
"M-m-m..."
He tried to get the words out but something was stopping him. He stared lifelessly into his mother and then Misty's eyes. He slowly looked down to a empty space. He slowly raised his hand to his neck but immediately flinched away when his fingers reached a sharp metallic object.
He mumbled again.
What the hell just happened? He thought.
A cell. He remembers...a cold room where he was waiting...
A pause.
Team Rocket.
Those three came to him, mocking their words as they brought him to Giovanni.
He remembers being thrown into Giovanni's arms unwillingly by James. He remembers the needle and how it pierces through his skin; he knew he couldn't see anything through blurred eyes; he dimly recalls the way he was put in his uniform; he recalls the only thing he heard was her screams.
He remembers Delia watching the glass as the frame smashed the picture...But most of all...
He can't forget Misty's crying face in the rain as he flew away from home on Charizard.
I put a foot forward with effort but collapse under the pressure, I dimly recall a shout in my name when the world around me became black.
Ash's Pov:
I felt warmth despite my cold surroundings.
Am I dead?..No I wouldn't feel warm now would I?
I try to move but every muscle is aching in pain.
"Wake up..."
My ears prick up. Who said that?
"Wake up Ash!.."
More urgent this time...It's sounds familiar...but not like last time...Who are you?
"Ash please wake up!...Please..."
The last word sounds more like a whisper. I feel something wet land near my cheek as I slowly open my eyes to the face of a very worried angel.
"Ash?"
A smile appears on my face.
"Hey Misty."
+Misty's Pov:+ (A/N: PokeShipper's hold ya breath!)
"Ash!" I looked at the boys head on my lap as I wiped my eyes of tears.
"I...I missed you Misty..." He closed his eyes. He was tired. He spoke slowly as he pressed his face onto my chest. He raised his arms to hold me as I held onto him. I heard him sniffle.
"Ash?"
"...I'm sorry..." Huh? I didn't understand...what's he apologising for? "I'm sorry Misty." I gave a long breathe out. Now I understood.
"Ash...don't worry...I forgi-"
I was cut off.
Ash's lips pressed against mine. The first kiss he gave me was for goodbye...this kiss meant forgiveness...
I closed my eyes as I fully gave into his kiss. It was warm but I still felt cuts in his lips, I didn't want to think about how he got them.
Ash held me tighter for a few more seconds as we both parted to breathe. He looked me in the eyes deeply whilst breathing heavily. I was about to hold my forehead to his before he sighed out painfully and wrapped his arms around himself.
His still injured...I remembered...
I was about to ask him if he was alright when he dropped his head onto my shoulder. I smiled and and put my chin on-top of his head. I felt Ash smile as he sighed contently.
I faintly heard Gary mumble 'it's about time' and the others agree the same. We were both warm with content. However that didn't last very long...
"Uh-oh..."
"No...way..."
STAY TUNED FOR PART 2!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYBODY!
