Chapter Twenty Three
Route 13 (3:08 p.m.)
It's been a whole day passed since Ash and Dawn left Opelucid City to the Giant Chasm with Gary to retrieve the DNA Splicers from Team Plasma.
Gary: Here we are you two.
Dawn: It's cold here.
Ash: Here put this sweater on.
Dawn: Thanks Ash.
Gary: Come and let's go, come on out Umbreon.
Gary called out his Umbreon just in case if they come across some wild Pokémon near the chasm.
Gary: Follow me.
The two trainers followed Gary into a cave that leads in the crater of Giant Chasm.
Ash: Woah did you felt that?
Gary: Must be the Plasma Freight nearby.
Dawn: Hey look an exit down there.
Ash: I see it, let's hurry.
The three exited the cave and they find themselves deep in the chasm with withered tree and snow all over the place.
Dawn: So much snow here.
Ash: Hey get down and look.
Gary: It's Team Plasma entering that cave up that hill and who is that guy in the robe?
Ash: That Ghetsis, me and Dawn seen him at Accumula Town with Team Plasma.
Dawn: What do you think they are doing?
Ash: I don't know but it's better if we go in and see.
Gary: Let's try to sneak in there without being caught.
Ash and Dawn agreed and snuck their way into the cave.
As they enter to the cave, they see no one in sight.
Ash: Where could they have gone to?
Gary: Thinks me, just be aware of your surroundings.
Then three men in black appeared in front of them and they put a some kind of ring around the three to capture them, they also put Pikachu, Piplup, and Umbreon in a cage.
Ash: Who are you three?
Shadow Triad: We are known as the Shadow Triad, the top three in the rankings of Team Plasma and we only served lord Ghetsis.
Dawn: Piplup and Pikachu! (Said in fear)
Gary: Let go my Umbreon and the other two.
Shadow Triad: Our king wants to challenge you Ash Ketchum on a one on one battle with your Reshiram, and our king's Zekrom.
Ash: Your King?
The two Shadow Triad members disappeared with Dawn, Gary, and their Pokémon.
Ash: Dawn!
The leader of the Shadow Triad took Ash to an arene in the cave with N waiting for his arrival.
Ash: N?
N: Please let him go, he's a good person. I am terribly sorry about all this; they just wanted us to battle to see whose truth or ideal is worth to be proven by us battling with Zekrom and Reshiram.
Ash: They could of ask and wait you're the king of Team Plasma?
N: Indeed and shall we get to our battle Ash?
Ash: Right, but the thing is I need Dawn to summoned Reshiram for me.
N: I hear its voice nearby.
Reshiram flies in the cave and stands in fronts Ash while its Turboblaze is charging up.
N: Come my friend and show yourself.
Zekrom comes in crashing through a hole in the ceiling and its Teravolt is charging up as well.
Both dragons roar at each other as they get prepare to battle.
Ghetsis: I'll be the judge of this battle and let it begin.
Ash: Reshiram use Fusion Flare!
Reshiram unleashes a powerful Fusion Flare at Zekrom.
N: Deflect it with Fusion Bolt!
Both attacks collided causing an intense shockwave.
N: Use Zen Headbutt!
Ash: Stop it with Dragon Pulse!
Zekrom tries to penetrate Dragon Pulse, but it was to strong to get through to it and to some slight damage from the super effective move.
Ash: Now use Blue Flare!
Reshiram breathes out Blue Flare and it hurt Zekrom a little since it wasn't a very effective move but it left a burn condition on Zekrom.
N: Zekrom use Bolt Strike!
Reshiram was hit by Bolt Strike as it tries to dodge the attack, Reshiram was paralyze by the attack.
Ash: Reshiram! (Said in worry)
Ghetsis: Enough! (He slam his crane against the ground) Come fourth Kyurem and take this DNA Splicers as a gift.
Kyurem: Khaaaaaahraannk (It roars loudly)
Dawn: What was that?
Gary: I don't know but I got an idea for us to get out. Umbreon use Swift on these Bracelets on us.
Umbreon: Umbreon!
It shoots Swift at Dawn and Gary's bracelets that kept them captive and now they are free and they freed their Pokémon and Pikachu.
Pikachu: Pika Pika!
Piplup: Pip Piplup!
Both hugged Dawn, while Gary freed his Umbreon and pet it on its head.
Gary: Here return Umbreon. Come on and let's find Ash.
Dawn: Right!
Dawn's Thought: Please be okay Ash, I can't lose you.
Gary and Dawn both see Reshiram and Zekrom facing each other with another dragon Pokémon in the middle.
Dawn: Looks it Ash down there.
Gary: I see but who is the guy with the green hair and cap?
Dawn: That's N, some guy we met back in Accumula Town when we first encounter Team Plasma.
Back down the arena:
N: What is the meaning of this Ghetsis?
Ghetsis: You see I never have any attentions to liberate Pokémon from their trainers, but instead take all the liberated Pokémon from the world at use them for my own good. But since I found Kyurem here, I won't be needing you anymore.
N: You used me!
Ghetsis: Indeed and now witness the true form of Kyurem. Kyurem here!
The DNA Splicers was embedded onto Kyurem's forhead and its wings starts pointing at both Reshiram and Zekrom.
Ash: Reshiram get out of here while you have the chance!
N: You to Zekrom!
Both try to fly away but Reshiram could hardly move from the paralyze effect and Zekrom flinched from the burn condition.
Ash: Oh no!
Kyurem shoots a purple laser and both from its tendril. Both dragons change back into the Light and Dark Stones after being shot from the laser.
N: Zekrom!
Dawn: No Reshiram!
Gary: What's going on?
Kyurem absorbs both stones with its tendril on its back and a ball of red and blue appeared on its tail and they both fused into a purple orb of energy and Kyurem starts to change forms into its true form before it separated into Reshiram and Zekrom.
Ash was shocked to see Kyurem's true form.
Kyurem opens its eyes and its tendril pops out of its back and connects to its turbine tail. Purple energy flows through the tendril, it's filled with plasma energy. Kyurem's dragon attack became stronger with the plasma radiation flowing through its body.
Ghetsis: Excellent Kyurem, now attack Ash Ketchum for me with Plasma Fusion.
Dawn: No Ash! (She runs towards his side to defend him)
Ash: Dawn?
As the Plasma Fusion was about to hit the two. The attack was deflected, both Ash and Dawn see all is Pikachu deflecting that Plasma Fusion with Iron Tail.
Ash: Pikachu!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Ghetsis: What? How can a small pest deflect such a powerful attack?
N: Pikachu's heart is connected to Ash's heart and when they both sense danger; they become stronger whenever the two are in danger.
Dawn: Pikachu thank you so much.
Pikachu: PIKA!
Ash: Now let's show them how strong you are Pikachu.
Pikachu! Pikachu!
Ash: Use Volt Tackle!
Pikachu performs a Volt Tackle attack at Kyurem and Ghetsis orders it to use Fusion Bolt.
Ghetsis: Fusion Bolt now!
Kyurem denied its orders and Pikachu stop attacking.
Pikachu: Pi?
Kyurem: I have now seen that both human and Pokémon can live together peacefully. I have always thought that human use Pokémon has tools to make their lives better. But you are the one using Pokémon to threat the entire world and I won't allow it.
Ghetsis: What! No I command you to attack them!
Kyurem changes back to its other form and releases both Reshiram and Zekrom go.
Ghetsis: No what have you done.
Some of the police forces came and arrested Ghetsis and his henchmen while the Shadow Triad left without a trace.
Ash: How did they know we were here?
Gary: I called them here about Team Plasma plan and I was worried about you two being hit from that attack.
Kyurem walks back into the deepest part of the cave to rest.
N: Ash I thank your Pikachu for changing Kyurem's heart and seeing that both humans and Pokémon can live together in peace and I feel the same way here, it's wrong to liberate Pokémon from their trainers because they have a strong bond together like you and Pikachu; Dawn and Piplup. I thank all of you for making me seeing that path and now I must depart with Zekrom.
Ash: Well we see you again N?
N: Someday we will Ash and you can count of it.
N flies off with Zekrom and leaves the cave through the hole in the ceiling.
Ash: What about you Reshiram?
Reshiram: I decided to remain on your side for good.
Ash: You really mean that?
Reshiram: Yes and I'll be seeing you two soon. I must recover from the battle and whenever you need me, just use that pendant again Dawn.
Dawn: No need to worry, I will.
Reshiram flies away to the clouds and remains to be tamed by Ash for good.
What more exciting story will our two heroes face through their journeys in Unova as the journey continues.
Well I hope you all enjoy this amazing chapter and I'll be posting Chapter Twenty Four on Wednesday. Just half way to go to end this story. I decided that Chapter 47 will be the last chapter of the Ultimate Goal and there will be a sequel to it taking place in Kanto and the Kalos region. The Kalos is where Pokémon X and Y will take place and it's filled with new Pokémon that are never seen before. So please stay tuned for tomorrow's chapter Pearlshippers!
