A/N: Okay, I'm happy. I actually get to post chapters faster. If you don't remember her, Runo is the little girl that Ash "saved" from a Team Rocket base that they blew up. She'll make a reappearance in this chapter! Well, onto the story!
"How'd you-?" Delia asked angrily.
"I snuck into Professor Oak's Lab yesterday while you were all sleeping and took them," Ash replied. He had special gloves that Ari had made him. As long as the orbs stayed in his hands his skin wouldn't absorb them.
"I see you've visited Ari recently. Those gloves won't help you much longer though, Ash. You see, you are truly evil. You try to hide it and be good but, once those orbs are infused in your body Team Rocket will be unstoppable!" Delia yelled.
"How come? I destroyed most of the Rocket bases," Ash said.
Misty, Dawn, and Brock had moved outside so that Ash would have room if he needed it.
"You destroyed most of the bases but, with Gary's and Akari's help, we have rebuilt almost all of them," Delia replied, a smug smile on her face.
"It doesn't matter. Even if I have to do it my whole life I will bring Team Rocket down. Oh, thanks for storing the orbs so close to home. I mean, it was like taking candy from a baby the way you led me to them. And now I can take them back to Ari and get Kairi back," Ash replied.
Outside most of the people around town were listening to Ash and Delia's conversation.
"Well then, I hope you and Ari won't mind if I do this!" Delia said pressing a button.
Out of nowhere four mechanical arms with hands came. Two of them grabbed Ash's arms while the other two grabbed the orbs. The arms with the orbs forced them into Ash's chest.
A red and blue beam of light intertwined and tangled themselves around Ash.
Everyone watched and waited with baited breath. After two minutes Ash let out a glass shattering scream as the two lights left him.
The mechanical arms let go and let Ash's limp body sag to the floor.
"Ash!" Misty yelled, running towards him.
"Stay..back. This…is about..to..get ugly," Ash replied.
Golden, ruby, and sapphire gorges began to appear on his skin. He tried to yell, but couldn't.
"Ash!" They heard Kairi yell.
Misty looked behind everyone to see that Kairi and a women with red hair and wearing silk clothing coming towards them.
The woman laughed.
"Who are you?" Brock asked the woman.
"How dare you! A human like you to address a person like me!" She yelled.
Ash looked back, a pained look on his face.
"He didn't know Ari. Please, will you save Ash?" Kairi asked.
Ari slapped her across the face. "I just wanted my orbs back. He decided to yell at Delia first and this is what happens. I'm tired of cleaning up after him. If I free him from this he will be forced to live with me for all eternity!" Ari yelled laughing.
"That's not his fault!" Kairi yelled.
"Kairi, be quiet! I will not do anything until I feel the need. I just came to watch," Ari replied with a small laugh.
Ash let out another scream as the orbs flew from his body and twirled above him.
"Listen, you want Ash to be normal? Grab two of those three orbs and I'll fix him," Ari told them with a sigh. "You better hurry though. Once they're back in him the only way to get them out will be rip them from his stomach."
"What about them being absorbed into us!?" Kairi asked.
"Oh, that. Well, take these gloves," Ari told her throwing a pair of gloves at Kairi's face.
Kairi slipped the blue gloves over her hands and ran at the orbs.
Before she could grab them they flew into Ash's arm.
A bright light flashed and everyone covered their eyes.
Once the light died down and everyone could see Ash was beside Delia.
He shoved her a little bit and she went crashing through the wall to her right.
Ash gave a menacing laugh. He flexed his arm. "This power is incredible."
"Ash…" Kairi whispered walking towards him with a frown.
He looked at her.
Kairi gasped. Ash's eyes were now three colors. Golden, Ruby, and Sapphire. His hair was sticking up instead of messy.
"What do you want?" Ash asked taking a step towards her.
Kairi gulped and took another look at his face. She could still see Ash behind the orbs power. She looked at his clothing. His shirt had been ripped to reveal a now muscular front. His arms now had more muscle than before.
"You scared?" Ash asked, pretending to be worried. He took three steps towards her.
"Pika pi," Pikachu said in a worried tone.
"Hm, what will be the first thing I destroy?" Ash asked himself. He looked around.
"Ash, don't you remember me?" Kairi asked walking towards him slowly.
Ash looked her way and then looked out the window. Her ran for the window and burst right through the wall.
Just then five helicopters flew over Pallet and landed near Delia's house.
Gary and Runo stepped out of one of them. Runo now looked much older. Instead of looking eight or nine she looked sixteen or seventeen.
"Hold your ears everyone!" Kairi yelled as Runo opened her mouth to sing.
"Why do you have to ruin my fun? Why can't I just sing for everyone?" Runo asked walking towards Kairi.
"It'll make everyone pass out!" Kairi yelled.
"Not if I don't want it to," Runo replied angrily. She looked straight at Ash and began to sing.
Ash's eyes became entire consumed by the ruby color.
Runo quit singing. "It won't work, Sir," Runo said to Gary.
"I thought so," Gary said lightly. He walked towards Ash.
"What do you want," Ash said in a deep growl.
"I want to help you get stronger. You're strong as you are but, some of these people will try to turn you back," Gary told him.
"No. I refuse your offer," Ash said. "I will be strong on my own and destroy everything on my own."
"Delia, what have you done to him? Why is he evil?" Kairi asked, walking towards Delia.
She had just woken up. "Ash has always had evil inside him. He suppressed it so that he could have friends. Well, let me just tell you something, his Father isn't dead," Delia said standing up.
"Let's try this," Ash said, bringing a fireball to this palm. He threw it one of the houses.
The house burst into flames.
"Let's get this started," Ash whispered to himself.
A/N: So, now we get to see Ash's evil side… Well, I hope you liked this chapter and I hope that you'll stick with me until the end! R&R!
