Andy swung the massive blade towards Ash's head, but stopped an inch before the sharp Aura could cut his neck, he immediately dispelled his weapon. He sensed his partner and child were within viewing range.

"Dad, I have no choice but to let you live." Andy said, and lifted Ash to his feet.

"Wait, why?" Ash asked, but soon saw a young woman holding a baby.

"I can't expose my son to my brutality." Andy explained. "Alright, Dad, you are going to help us destroy the Army." Andy ordered, and received none of Ash's arguments.

"Andy, who is that?" Kate asked as she adjusted the squirming baby in her arms. "And what happened to the fleet?" Kate gave up and handed Aaron to Andy.

While Andy rocked Aaron to sleep, he took the time to answer Kate`s question. "This," Andy started, and pointed to Ash, "is my dad. And the fleet retreated." Andy explained, and gave Kate an expression that said 'Long story'.

"So this is the high-and-mighty Ash Ketchum. Aura wielder, I see." Kate observed dryly. "So you got to see your grandson. Mind if I kill you know?" Kate asked with ill humor. Ash immediately put up an Aura pulse that would hid his mind, and Andy sensed it.

"No use Dad, she's lived with me long enough to break that trick." Andy said as soon as Ash fell to the ground. Pikachu, who was hiding in a tree, came down to Ash because he looked to be in pain.

Kate was ravaging Ash's mind mercilessly, and nearly destroyed his consciousness. She came across battles he fought, people he tortured, and allies he made in the name of the Army. She began to rip apart Ash's mind, but was stopped by Andy.

"Kate, he's going to help us." Andy explained, trying to cool down Kate, and somehow succeeded. Kate let Ash's mind free from her powerful grip.

Ash picked up Pikachu, placed him on his shoulders, and proceeded to take his Aura gloves of.

"Dad, a few rules: rule one; you obey everything Kate, Fred and I tell you. Rule two; you will not use Aura in any fashion with the exception of training with me." Andy went down a list of rules, and had Kate add in one.

"And you may not purposely influence your grandson in any way, shape, or form." Kate said sharply, and grabbed Aaron from Andy's arms.

Ash spent three hours explaining the Army's battle strategy, intelligence agencies, supporting politicians, and their war plans for next month.

"Wait, only a month?" Andy asked while slowly pulsing Aura around him in frustration. "I need more than a month to train my drain ability." Andy grumbled. He quickly realized his Aura pulses were getting powerful, and stopped them.

Ash turned to his son with a worried expression. "I can train with you, but I'll need to use the iridescent for you to become stronger." Ash said heavily, and received a laugh from Andy.

"Then let's train." Andy ordered. "Fred, Kate, make sure Aaron doesn't get in the way." Andy said, and received an explosion of laughter from Ash.

"So that's the bastard's name? Fitting, considering who his dad and grandpa are!" Ash joked, but was immediately punched in the face.

"Never…" Andy threw another punch. "Call…" A knee to the gut. "My son…" Andy was glowing his trademark bronze and summoned a fighting staff. "A bastard!" Andy began to charge at Ash, who had just unleashed the iridescent energy into his dark blue.

Ash created a bastard sword to block (Hand-and-a-half sword) to piss Andy off further. Andy soon realized what Ash had called upon, and summoned a katana that had an odd pink glow to it that ran streaks through the bronze. When Ash raised his blade to block, the katana went straight through and cut Ash.

But Ash was still alive.

"What was that?" Ash demanded. He felt the full pain of a blade cutting through him, but was still standing with not a scratch on his body. Andy was confused as well, until he sensed a psychic energy flowing through his blade.

"We will continue this tomorrow." Andy said with a shocked expression. "Fred, get me my books on human abilities." Andy ordered, to which Fred began to execute. Andy then turned to Kate, who was holding Aaron still. "Can you signal to Gardevoir? I need her here now." And within seconds, the blue and white Pokémon appeared before him.

"What's going on?" Gardevoir asked, and wiped sweat off her forehead. She felt a presence in her mind enter and exit in the span of a second, and saw Kate start laughing. "Tell NO ONE."Gardevoir said with fire, but Kate acted like she didn't hear her.

"Gardevoir, I have to ask you a question; has Gallade's psychic abilities improved since you had Kirlia?" Andy asked, still thinking about the psychic power that now resided in his Aura.

"Yeah, he's almost half my abilities." Gardevoir said in deep thought. Her powers were nothing to laugh at, so Andy and Kate were shocked when she said this.

"And judging by what Kate has been so kind to share with me, his power will increase, and so will your physical strength." Andy said, barely biting back a laugh. Andy's face became serious, and turned to Ash. "Dad, has Max been showing any psychic abilities after having a child with his Gardevoir?" Andy asked, making sure he could support what he was thinking.

"Yeah, he's become world famous; even in Almia." Ash said, and knew exactly what Andy was thinking.

Fred came running back to the clearing with about three books and his personal notebook stocked full of who knows what. "Andy, I found them." He panted, and handed the master Aura wielder the books. "And you'll find notes I've been taking after seeing you show beyond Aura capabilities."

Andy forced his Aura through the books, and found the passage he was looking for, and read it aloud.

"Due to the intense emotional characteristics of an Aura wielder and the impressive genius of a psychic, a child between the two would certainly be born with both abilities, and mature at a faster rate than normal people, but slow down their aging at around when puberty starts. While these babies are impressively powerful, that is not the only benefit they have; the parents will eventually gain a slight amount of the opposite ability. This will is also evident in Pokémon mating, seeing as how the male will gain the abilities of the female and vise-versa. Also, in Pokémon and Human relationships this happens, but only for the human (ie: the Pokémon gains no abilities)"

Andy's mind was cluttered with self-inflicted questions and statements.

"Holy crap I'm becoming a psychic." Andy said quietly.

"Holy crap I'm becoming an Aura wielder." Kate said at the same time as her partner said his line.

/NOTE DE LA AUTHOR/ (Because that other one I did was done to death.)

So I haven't uploaded in some days now, and I'm feeling hyper. My day was productive, why thanks for asking. I watched five episodes of Dragon Ball Z, three at school and two at home, started to read Avatar the Last Airbender Fanfiction again, and wrote this in an hour!

I have to tell you guys about a Fanfiction rule Dr. Videogame and I formed. Basically, it goes like this: Ship, Ship, Kill, Ship, Ship, Kill, Fend off trolls, Brutally slaughter, and repeat. And remember the chapter where I introduced Kate/Katherine? In the author's note, I put this line in: 'This could end badly, or with children… So badly.' And thanks to N1kk1 Starlet (Legit user) picking up on this, I present to you; Ketchum family drama! And Andy's bastard! (Andy hits me in the head)

Andy: DO I HAVE TO REPEAT MYSELF?

Wait, I thought I didn't do this character interacting with author bit… Eh, time to start plotting Aaron's death if you don't go back to my twisted imagination!

Andy: *LEAVES AUTHOR'S NOTE*

Good, that clears up that. Anyways, Ash did do that, and use a bastard sword. LIKE A BOSS.
