All right, here is chapter 5...and where things get serious, prepare yourselves. It may be a bit short, but its a very crucial chapter. I own nothing except my ideas and OC's.

Ash laughed as his children tackled him, Ember being 12, and Garnet 11, all of them at a house Ash had bought on the outskirts of Pallet Town. He had bought two homes, one in his world, and one in Ruby's, every year they gather their stuff and switch houses for a year, to spend time with their respective families. None of them minded it.

"You two are getting stronger, I may have to be careful next time". Ash said with a grin.

"No way Dad, your the strongest man in both worlds"! Ember said with a similar grin.

"Yeah"! Garnet agreed.

Little do they know, those words sealed their fates.

"The strongest? Oh how wrong you are little girl". A male voice muttered.

Flying high in the air, was a cloaked figure, hands neatly folded behind his back, his face hidden as he stared down at Ash and his children.

"Your Father is nothing more than a failed project...one I intend to stop funding, now". He said, before he held his hand out. A black liquid formed in his palm, before it attached to his fingers and he swung his hand out, the liquid acting like strings, he swung them down.

Ash's sensed kicked into high gear, drawing Celestial's Will and blocking the strings, blowing both children back.

"Dad"! Ember and Garnet shouted in concern.

Ash grimaced. "That was strong...who is-" Ash stopped cold, when his point of hatred appeared, landing on the ground with a nonchalant hum.

"I am disappointed in you Ash, I had put SO much faith in you, you were a cut above the other dimensions I have observed, a Saiyan with multiple powers at his side! And yet...you failed to meet my expectations...now, your time is up". He said, bringing both hands out.

"Dad...who is that"? Ember asked nervously.

"Ember...Garnet...go to your Mother, tell her what's going on...and get out of here". Ash instructed.

"But Dad-" "Do as I say young lady"! Ash snapped at his daughter, causing her to flinch. "Y-Yes sir". Ember said, before turning around and running inside, Garnet following.

"Mom! Someone in a cloak is attacking Dad"! Ember shrieked in worry, running in.

Ruby's head whipped up from her strawberry cookies, grabbing her scythe and running out, the two following again.

"Ash"! Ruby shouted to her husband, seeing Ash struggle to fight against his opponent.

"Ruby! Take the kids away! Now"! Ash ordered.

"But Ash"! Ruby tried to argue.

"He's only after me! I want you safe"! Ash said in concern, shifting to Super Saiyan 3 and fighting back, only succeeding in putting his opponent on the defensive for the time being.

"...Be safe". Ruby said, grabbing her children and using her Semblance, zipping off.

"No you don't, they are the reason your LIKE THIS"! The man snapped, tripping Ruby and causing both kids to shriek as they were thrown away.

"Ruby! Ember! Garnet"! Ash shouted in concern. "You...little-"! Ash growled before furiously attacking his opponent.

Ember got up with a groan, Garnet beside her. "We gotta help"! Ember shouted.

"Right...but how"?! Garnet asked.

"I...our Semblances"! Ember said with a snap of her fingers.

"...Let's do it". Garnet said, aiming his hands.

Ember formed a pink orb of manipulated space, Garnet filling the orb with Antimatter, both grunting before firing at the man, who turned just in time to be blasted.

"Yeah"! Both kids cheered, happy their attack worked.

Ash floated to them. "Okay, good shot, but you need to leave, now"! Ash snapped.

"But...my Semblance". Garnet began.

"Such things won't fell me so easily, child". The man said, walking out, his cloak gone, and his face furious. "NOW DIE"! He roared, racing forward with his strings.

Both children covered their eyes, scared.

"NO"!

SQUELCH!

Ember and Garnet opened their eyes, only to freeze and pale when they saw their Father in front of them, arms wide and had taken the attack. "D-Dad"? Ember asked, deathly afraid.

"I'm...I'm so...". Garnet tried to apologize, tears filling his eyes.

"It's fine...I'm not mad". Ash said, trying to hide his pain, running his hand through his children's hair for the last time. "I'm so proud of you two". He said, before he slashed a portal open with the last of his strength, and blasted the two into it, throwing his sword with them. "REMEMBER, I LOVE YOU TWO VERY MU-AGH"! Ash didn't get to finish his sentence, as his murderer stabbed him again, going limp as the portal closed.

"DAD"! Both shouted, Ember holding the sword tightly, suddenly, the two drifted apart.

"Garnet"! Ember shouted, trying to reach for her brother.

"Ember"! Garnet shouted in return, trying to do the same.

They almost reached each other, before they were both suddenly yanked back, into two separate warpways, both screaming in fear for their sibling's safety.

Ruby stared blankly, her scythe held limp as her husband hit the ground, dead. "A-Ash". Ruby whimpered, before her Silver Eyes activated, two flames igniting from them. "YOU MONSTER"! Ruby shrieked, using her Semblance to attack him.

The man huffed and blocked the attacks with his strings, flying up as Ruby attacked him from all sides, a tornado forming around him as Ruby assaulted him with everything she had.

"WHY?! WHY?! WHY?!" Ruby shouted, tearing her scythe at the man. "HE DID NOTHING TO YOU"! She roared again, slashing again. "YOU WILL DIE!" She bellowed, enveloping the area with a silver light.

Ember collapsed into some snow, Celestial's Will stuck in the ground beside her. "D-Daddy". Ember whimpered, sobbing into the snow, feeling cold. "I-I'm so sorry". She cried.

Footsteps were heard, the snow crunching as a large figure appeared in front of Ember.

He was of Pandaren race, wearing black leather armor and a conical straw hat, a red muffler around his neck and covering half of his face. "Are...you alright"? He asked.

"Who...who are you"? Ember asked, grabbing her Father's sword and hesitantly pointing it at the Pandaren.

The Pandaren's eyes widened at the sight of the sword. "That sword...it is Celestial's Will...correct"? He asked.

"...Yes". Ember whimpered.

"So...your Father...was Ash Ketchum"? He asked again.

"Yeah...he was...k-k...killed". Ember struggled the word out.

The Pandaren was silent, before kneeling down and holding his hand out. "I am Taran Zhu, leader of the Shado Pan, I was a good friend of your Father, and he must have sent you here to be safe...may I take you to our monastery? To get you some food and to warm you up"? He asked, his voice gentle.

"Y-Yes please". Ember said, picking up the sword and still holding it tightly.

Taran didn't object to the sword, merely walking up a path and to a large Monastery, multiple other Pandaren in similar outfits noticing them, a couple gawking at the sword Ember held. Ember ignored them all, silently whimpering to herself as she was led to another room, a more elderly Pandaren woman tending to some injuries. "Yalia...we have an emergency". Taran said, gesturing to Ember.

Yalia looked and saw no injuries, before she saw the sword and her eyes widened. "Is that..." She gasped.

"Yes, Celestial's Will, this is his daughter...and he was murdered". Taran answered, Ember looking down. "I was wondering if you could calm her, give her something to eat...and a room for her to sleep, she will be staying with us". Taran ordered.

"Of course, Lord Zhu". Yalia said, patting a chair for Ember to sit down, which she did. "Calm down little one...you're safe here". Yalia calmed.

Garnet shouted as he was thrown to the ground in the middle of a dead forest, groaning as he got up. "Where...where am I"? Garnet asked, only for a pack of Beowolves to surround him. "Uh oh..." He muttered, panicking. They all leapt, only for them all to be cut down in seconds.

Qrow Branwen landed on the ground, scythe out. "Hey Kiddo...what are you doing way out here"? Qrow asked, a smirk on his face.

"Uncle Qrow"! Garnet said, but rather than the smiling hug he came to expect from his grandnephew, he was surprised when Garnet tackled him and started to bawl.

"Whoa there! What happened Garnet"? Qrow asked, holding Garnet carefully.

"S-Some guy, he came to our house...he killed Dad...and Mom, I don't know what happened to her"! Garnet explained, crying his eyes out.

Qrow's pupils dilated, before he calmed himself and picked Garnet up completely, his eyes stone cold. "Come on kiddo...let's head back".

"Back where"? Garnet asked.

"Home...I'm amping up your training". Qrow answered simply, carrying Garnet off.

To be continued.

...There. I feel bad for the two...and I was the one who wrote this. Ember is indeed in Pandaria, while Garnet is back in Remnant, training in secrecy under Uncle Qrow. Expect more later. R&R This is Oathkeeper0317 signing out.
