(In Loudon, England)

Andrew woke up in his hotel room after a rather long night. When he arrived yesterday he wasn't expecting to do to much, but he ended up meeting with Cedric, his elite four and Lana. It was a good play and he enjoyed it very much, today was a new day and they were expecting a few more Champions. The ones expected today was Ash from Japan, Hideo from China, Alonso from Spain and Angelo from Italy. There are others but these three have a big say in what happens at these meetings among the ones already there.

After getting up and out of bed, Andrew walked over to the bathroom and took a shower. After showering, he got dressed and clipped his pokeballs on and his mega ring on his wrist. He then left the hotel and walked a short distance to the England's League Headquarters.

(At The Headquarters)

Andrew walked in and walked over to the arena where Cedric and two of his elite four were. Cedric returned his pokemon and walked over and meet with Andrew.

"Morning Andrew," said Cedric.

"Same to Cedric. I see you guys are training," replied Andrew.

"Yeah I got to keep my friends here in tip top shape and sharp so I test them every morning," said Cedric.

"Maybe I should do that with my elite four," said Andrew with a slight laugh.

"I recommend it. Why don't you join us?" asked Cedric.

"What do you have in mind?" Andrew asked in response.

"How about a one on one between you and I. No mega, just a simple battle," replied Cedric.

"I can do that. Let's take this over to the arena then," said Andrew.

His two elite four members walked over to him. One was a short orange haired female, she was wearing a long sleeve shirt and jeans. Next too here was a blonde haired male he was in a polo shirt and jeans as well.

"Let me introduce these two. This is my youngest member Gracie, she is 17, but her knowledge of pokemon and battling is outstanding. And next to her is Lewin. He is over aggressive, but very easy to get along with he gets angry quickly and trust him like a brother though," introduced Cedric.

"Its nice to meet both of you," replied Andrew.

Gracie smiled and waved and then left slightly blushing. Lewin walked over shook Andrew's hand and then took a seat on the bleachers to watch the battle. Andrew took one spot and Cedric took the spot across from him.

(Andrew vs. Cedric: One on One)

"Let me introduce to you one of my personal favorites go Weavile," said Cedric.

"The old saying says let's fight fire with fire, and in this case let's fight with ice. Go Glaceon," replied Andrew.

"So you have an ice type too, I should have done research on you Andrew, but from what I hear about you is that you are very exceptional battler. Then again that is why you are Champion," said Cedric.

"Your no slouch either from what I've seen," replied Andrew.

"It time I show you Weavile's superior speed. Now show him night slash,"

"Glaceon wait for it then match him with iron tail,"

Weavile show off his speed as he moved quickly at Andrew's Glaceon. Glaceon watched him carefully as his claws turned black as he got closer. Glaceon's tail turned a slivery color. Just as Weavile was about to slash with his black claws they were meet with Glaceon's iron tail. Weavile quickly jumped back and in front of Cedric.

"It's time to even the odds. Glaceon use hail," commented Andrew.

Glaceon sent a ball of ice into the air. After doing so clouds rolled in and it started to snow. This made Glaceon a lot faster and harder to see.

As the battle was going on. Antonio the head of Cedric's elite four walked in with Ash and his Pikachu on his shoulder, Lana, and Hideo. they looked over at the battle going on and then decided to take a seat in the bleachers.

"How did this happen?" Ash asked Gracie.

"I think it is a training battle, but I'm not really sure," Gracie replied in a lower tone.

"By the looks of it Andrew might be winning," stated Hideo.

"It appears so," replied Ash.

They then look down onto the arena to see the match.

"Weavile we have to be careful his Glaceon can be anywhere," Cedric told his Weavile.

Weavile examined the arena very closely to see any signs of him. The snow falling around him didn't bother Weavile to much.

"Glaceon use ice beam,"

Glaceon sent a beam of rigid blue ice right at Weavile. Weavile noticed it and jumped to the left to dodge the beam. The beam hit the wall behind the arena and froze it completely over.

"Weavile we now know where it is now use poison jab,"

"Glaceon dodge it with dig,"

Weavile ran through the snow with his claws coated in poison. He ran over to the spot the ice beam came from. Glaceon wasn't there he was underground.

"Glaceon use iron tail,"

Glaceon jumped out behind Weavile with his tail coated in iron. He then slammed his tail right into the gut of Weavile. This sent Weavile into a pile of snow on the arena. Weavile quickly jumped off that pile and right at Glaceon.

"Weavile use low kick,"

"Glaceon use blizzard,"

Weavile moved right at Glaceon who whipped up vicious storm of ice and snow. This storm nailed Weavile and stopped him in his tracks it also caused him to gather ice on his claws and crown of his head. That didn't stop Weavile from coming after Glaceon he fought through the storm and swept Glaceon's legs knocking him to his side.

"Glaceon," shouted Andrew.

Glaceon quickly jumped back to his feet and ran back near Andrew.

"Hmm, It will take more than one super effective attack to keep him down, interesting," commented Cedric.

"My Glaceon here is very resilient," replied Andrew.

"I expected that from him," said Cedric.

"Ok you two that's enough," said Ash walking to the edge of the bleachers.

Andrew and Cedric looked over at him and acknowledged that. Both of them returned their pokemon and walked over to the bleachers.

(After the Battle)

"How about we call that a tie?" asked Cedric.

"Yeah, that works for me," replied Andrew.

"If you two are done how about joining us up here," said Ash.

Andrew and Cedric took a seat on the bleachers one level below Ash, Lana, and Hideo were.

The rest of the champion's coming to this meeting will be here tomorrow or Sunday. The meeting will start Monday, and will go on for one week. It will end with us questioning the German elite four and their commissioner," stated Ash.

Everyone sitting there shook their heads in acknowledgement and then turned their attention back over to Ash.

"We are done here know, Andrew I'd like you join the rest of us for lunch," said Ash.

"Ok I can do that," replied Andrew.

Cedric dismissed his elite four and then Andrew, Ash, Lana, Hideo, and Cedric all left and walked over to a restaurant just south of the League Headquarters. They took a seat at table. A waitress walked over and gave them menu's.

"So Andrew tell me about yourself since this is the first time I meet a US Champion?" asked Ash.

"What do you want to know about me?" Andrew asked in response.

"What are goals as a Champion?" asked Cedric butting into the conversation.

"I'm always looking to improve my region anyway I can. If it's being there for a trainer or if it's teaching younger trainers I always do my best to do that," replied Andrew.

"Not really a goal, but I think we all want to improve our own region, and I'm glad you like to help others," said Cedric.

"What are some of the pokemon you have?" asked Hideo.

"You all have seen my Glaceon, my five others are my Charizard, Lucario, Swampert, Flygon, and Gengar," replied Andrew.

"From what I've heard Lucario and Charizard both can mega evolve," commented Ash.

"Yeah, they can," replied Andrew.

The waitress came back and took everyone's orders. She grabbed the menu's and then walked over to the kitchen and placed the ticket she wrote everything on and then put the menu's away.

"So Ash what pokemon do you have with you?" asked Hideo.

"You all know Pikachu. I also have Charizard, Sceptile, Noivern, Staraptor, and Gliscor," replied Ash.

"I guess I'll go next. I have Weavile, Scrafty, Kangaskhan, Rampardos, Feraligatr, and Muk," said Cedric.

"My team is, Venusaur, Lapras, Durant, Salamence, Breloom, and Slurpuff," stated Lana.

"That just leaves me then. My team is Carbink, I too have Flygon, Sableye, Excadrill, Typhlosion, and Avalugg," said Hideo.

"It seems like we all have a mega or two," commented Andrew.

"Mine is Charizard and his is Charizard Y," stated Ash.

"I have Kangaskhan," boasted Cedric.

"You may have him but my Venusaur can beat your Kangaskhan," replied Lana.

"You'll both lose to my Sableye in his mega form," said Hideo.

"This always happens with these three all the time," said Ash.

"That's expected, When you gather some of the best trainers in the world, yeah there will be a competiveness between all of us," replied Andrew.

"Ash you are more competitive then anyone else here," Hideo reminded Ash.

Ash just laughed it off. Their food arrived to the table and each of them ate. They all paid after they ate and then left back over to the League. From there they all split up. Andrew and Cedric walked around with some of Cedric's elite four. Ash returned to his hotel room where Serena was unpacking for them. Hideo and Lana went back to their rooms as well.

(Emma, Brady, and Katie in the Gym)

The three of them with Daniel and Caitlynn all were waiting on the gym leader to come over so Brady can battle her. She was in the back getting her pokemon ready. Payton walked from the back over to where Brady was standing.

"Are you ready to battle Brady?" asked Payton.

"Yes, I am," replied Brady.

"Good to hear then go ahead and take your spot on the arena and then my ref will explain the rules of the battle," said Payton.

Brady took his spot ready to battle. He thought about when his two friends battled her yesterday and remembered some of her pokemon. He didn't know if she switched some of them or not, but he was more than ready for whatever she had.

(Gym Battle: Brady vs. Payton)

"This will be a four on four pokemon battle, between the gym leader Payton and the challenger Brady. The challenger can substitute at any time during this battle. This battle will be over when either Brady's or Payton's four pokemon cannot go on. If you both are ready Payton can call out her first pokemon," said the ref.

"Go Sandslash," said Payton.

"Go, Empoleon," said Brady.

"Sandslash use X-Scissor,"

"Empoleon, use hydro pump,"

Sandslash's claws turned a dark green and he rushed over at Empoleon. Empoleon opened his beak and sent out a torrent of water at Sandslash. Sandslash, stopped as the water came at him. He ran back towards his trainer, but that was no good and he was swept up in the water and was blasted back into a rock just right of Payton. The rock shattered as Sandslash hit it. Sandslash got back to his feet slowly.

"Sandslash use stone edge,"

"Empoleon use aqua jet,"

Water surrounded Empoleon and he swam fast at Sandslash. Sandslash looked around trying to find a spot to take cover. All he could do was dig down but just as he was halfway down his back half was hit with the jet and knocked right out of the hole. The ref looked over at Sandslash before calling the match.

"Sandslash is unable to battle, Empoleon wins," said the ref.

"Impressive, you took Sandslash out with ease. Now this battle is far from over. Return Sandslash and go Stunfisk," said Payton.

"Brady means business today," commented Katie.

"Katie he's always like that in battle," replied Emma.

Daniel sat there and took what just happened in. He was beginning think about if and when he will have to battle Brady or even Katie for that matter.

"Return Empoleon and go Swinub,"

Stunfisk use aqua tail,"

"Swinub use dig to dodge,"

Swinub dug deep underground to get away from Stunfisk who was making his way at Swinub with his tail coated in water. Stunfisk looked around to see where Swinub will come up.

"Swinub now,"

Swinub dug up right underneath Stunfisk. Stunfisk slammed his tail into the ground to get into the air to dodge the dig attack.

"Come on Brady that won't work here. You'll have to try harder then that," said Payton.

"I intend to. Swinub use ice beam," Brady shot back with a grin on his face.

Swinub looked up and sent a rigid beam of ice right at the fish in the. The Trap Pokemon was stuck he could go no where. Stunfisk was struck with the ice beam and froze completely solid. Once he crashed to the ground the ice shattered Leaving Stunfisk defeated.

"Wow Brady I'm impressed. You were able to change the advantage to favor. It takes quick thinking todo that Brady and you have some very fast reflexes. For you that is good because the more you advance on your adventure the more ready you'll be," Payton commented.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Brady.

"If your goal is to win the Cup which I believe it is then you'll need to be on your feet at all times and the challenge after winning is even worse," replied Payton.

"You mean facing Andrew don't you?" asked Brady.

"Yes Brady I do. To get to him I bet you'll first have to beat the trainer who is observing this. Daniel is no slouch he is a tough opponent if you get a chance to battle him," replied Payton.

"I'll beat Daniel and then go on and beat Andrew I'm not afraid of battling either of them when my pokemon and I are ready," Brady shot back first looking at Payton then looking over at Daniel.

"Did you hear that Dan?" asked Caitlynn.

"I actually look forward to facing him now," replied Daniel looking back at Brady.

"Brady let me give some advice about Andrew from someone who has battled him multiple times. Andrew is a once in a generation trainer you can ask anyone of these gym leaders you face from here on. He battles with heart and determination that not many can match," said Payton.

"Andrew is much more than a trainer to me he is also very caring and understanding," Katie said under her breath.

"Did you say something Katie?" asked Emma.

"No, Em let's just watch the battle," replied Katie.

"Stunfisk is unable to battle, Swinub wins," said the ref.

"Return Stunfisk, and go Quagsire," said Payton.

"Return Swinub, and go Nuzleaf," said Brady.

"Quagsire use mud shot,"

"Nuzleaf dodge and use leaf blade,"

Quagsire sent glops of mud in the direction of Nuzleaf. Nuzleaf dodged the glops of mud by running past the as the went where he use to be. His arms turned a dark green color as he ran at Payton's Quagsire.

"Quagsire use ice punch,"

One of Quagsire's fins had a light blue mist around it. Just as Nuzleaf reached him Quagsire threw that fin right into the gut of Nuzleaf. Nuzleaf wide-eyed and was sent back into the middle of the arena.

"Quagsire now use double kick,"

Quagsire walked his way over toward Nuzleaf. As he did Nuzleaf took sunlight into the leaf on top of his head.

"Quagsire get out of there," shouted Payton once she noticed Nuzleaf taking the sunlight.

"Now, Nuzleaf use solarbeam,"

Nuzleaf opened his mouth and sent a beam of yellow right at Quagsire. Quagsire turned around and started to run away from this up he couldn't get fast enough. The beam hit him in the back and blasted him. After the dust had settled Quagsire laid on his stomach out cold.

"Quagsire is unable to battle, Nuzleaf wins," said the ref.

Nuzleaf stands back up to his feet. Everyone now noticed the spot of ice where he was punched. Nuzleaf took in a few breaths and then looked up at the downed Quagsire.

"Return Quagsire and go Rhydon," said Payton.

"I'm down to her last pokemon," Brady thought as he looked over at Rhydon.

Brady looked over at Nuzleaf for a moment. Nuzleaf was standing there ready to fight Rhydon. Brady looked again at Rhydon and knew he had the advantage if he stuck to Nuzleaf so that is what he did.

"Rhydon use drill run,"

"Nuzleaf dodge it and use leaf blade,"

Nuzleaf tried to run to the left of the hard charging Rhydon, but the ice on his chest slowed him and allowd Rhydon to nail him with his horn. The horn hit him where the ice was and sent him back into the wall behind Brady.

"Nuzleaf is unable to battle, Rhydon wins," said the ref.

"That went as well as it should. Leaving Nuzleaf in when he was slowed down, Brady was a big mistake you knew it would slow him down, but yet you still left him in," Payton commented on what just happened.

"Return Nuzleaf, and go Empoleon," said Brady.

"Rhydon use drill run again,"

"Empoleon use aqua jet,"

Rhydon once again ran at Brady's Pokemon. Empoleon surrounded himself with water and swam at Rhydon. Rhydon took the attack and it pushed back in front of Payton still on his feet. Empoleon landed a few feet in front of Brady.

"Rhydon use earthquake,"

"Empoleon use hydro pump,"

The ground around Empoleon shook violently. Empoleon watched he was trapped between rocks coming up from the ground created by the quake. Empoleon managed to send a torrent of water at Rhydon that hit him right in the face. All the water in the face did was anger him.

"Rhydon use drill run,"

Rhydon rushed at the now trapped Empoleon. As he got to him he smashed through the rocks trapping him in place. Rhydon smashed his horn right into the gut of Empoleon. This sent Empoleon through the rocks behind him and stopping right in front of Brady. Empoleon stood back up this time with the dark blue on his fins and face glowing.

"This looks a lot like torrent," commented Payton.

"You mean his ability torrent?" asked Brady.

"Yeah it is," replied Payton.

Brady thought for a moment about the last time this happened. His Prinplup at the time completely froze himself in place. By the look of it now though it looked like Empoleon had more control of it.

"Empoleon use hydro pump,"

A large blast of water came from the beak of Empoleon. This blast of water hit Rhydon and lifted him off the ground and sent him to the left of his trainer unable to stand or get up. The same spots the glowed started to freeze over and lucky for Brady the battle was already over.

"Rhydon is unable to battle, Empoleon wins. Brady is the winner," said the ref.

(After the Battle)

Everyone watching came down and joined Brady.

"A heads up Brady, Empoleon hasn't mastered torrent yet that's why his feet and fins froze over," commented Daniel.

"Thanks for letting me know Daniel," replied Brady.

Payton and now Rhydon walked over and joined the group. Payton first handed Brady the horn badge

"From here you three will be heading to South Dakota. Rapid City to be exact. A great small town, the gym leader there spelizes in fairy pokemon. She loves fairy tales and her pokemon match that. I could be wrong here, but she uses Sylveon, and a Slurpuff. Both are her stronger pokemon, so good luck and I look forwad to seeing you in the Champion's Cup Brady, Emma, and you Katie," said Payton returning Rhydon and walking back to her study.

The group left the gym and back over to the pokemon center.

"I look forward to battling you three when the time comes. And trust me when I say I won't hold anything back to any of you so I'll more than likely see you three tomorrow at the Contest till then later," said Daniel leaving.

"Cat good luck tomorrow," said Emma.

"Thanks," said Caitlynn following Daniel out.

"So now what?" asked Brady.

"I know what I'm going to go do," replied Katie leaving in a hurry.

"Wonder where she is off to?" asked Brady.

"It's Katie, she's off to somewhere in town. Probably off to a quiet it place to talk to Andrew or something," replied Emma.

"I need to do some relaxing after a tough battle," said Brady taking a seat onto the couch.

Emma took a seat next to him.

"Some piece and quiet is good. We are not listening to Katie and Zac fight for once," said Emma.

"I know what you mean. Those two are always going at it over one thing or another," replied Brady.

"Lately it's been Katie's relationship with Andrew. If I didn't know any better I think Zac doesn't like Andrew. I don't care for him much either, but I'm going to get angry at Katie for it," said Emma.

"Zac is just Zac. I've known him since I moved into Boston and he's always joking around with people, but with Katie it's differnet. He has even said he was done going after her, but from eyes it doesn't seem that way," said Brady.

"Part of me want's Katie to be with Zac, but then again Katie won't because of Andrew," replied Emma.

"Em just leave you know and enjoy the peace and quiet we have," said Brady.

"Yeah I can," replied Emma.

(Outside on the Town)

Katie walked through the town. She stopped once she got to the park she took a seat on the bench and looked in the trees to see Pidove's sitting on branches in the tree. She saw a food cart and walked over to it and got a hot dog and some chips she then returned to the bench and ate. From the park she walked over to the library. She took a seat at a computer and went on the web. Katie was curious about Seraph Co. and why exactly were they getting on Andrew's nerves so she set out to research them and after hours of searching them she was shocked at the vile things they are capable of. As she was sitting on the pc something caused her hair on the back of her neck stand up. She looked over her right shoulder and saw nothing.

"Your researching things you shouldn't be Katie Hopkins," said an eerie voice behind her.

Who's there?" asked Katie turning around slowly.

Behind her was a man dressed in all black. His voice was cold as could be. Standing next to this man was his pokemon Umbreon. He looked menacing.

"Who are you?" asked Katie.

"Funny, you should ask," replied the man.

Katie slowly reached for one of her pokeballs. The man didn't see her do that so she did have the element on her side, but she didn't know who this man was and what he is capable of. She clicked the center of her pokeball to get it ready.

"Without Andrew here, who's going to protect you," said the man.

"I can protect myself," replied Katie.

"Do you honestly think you can protect yourself from someone like me?" questioned the man.

"Blaine back off," shouted someone running from the door. He was followed by his Lucario.

The man named Blaine turned around and saw Warren.

"Well, Warren long time no see. I see you still have Hiro fighting your battles again, somethings never change," said Blaine with a sly smile.

"If you want a fair fight Hiro and I will give you one," replied Warren.

"That's unfortunate I'm not here looking for a fight," Blaine said pausing for a moment. Blaine turned around looked back at Katie. "When you rush out of here to call Andrew tell him Blaine Drake sends his regards. I look forward to seeing him when he rushes back here," said Blaine before letting out a laugh and walking out.

Just as he reached the exit he stopped and said something to Warren.

"If you wish to come to after me then do so Warren, but the results will be the same as last time. Well, I'll see you later Warren," laughed Blaine walking out the exit.

Warren looked over at Hiro. Hiro looked at him and shook his head. Warren and Hiro walked over to Katie who was still slightly shaken up from the encounter with Blaine.

"Who are you and how do you know that man?" asked Katie almost stumbling over her words.

"My name's Warren. I've been looking for that man you just encountered I've been after for awhile now. And who are you and How do you know Andrew exactly?" asked Warren.

"I better go. And thanks for saving me," said Katie running out.

Katie ran from that library back over to the Pokemon Center. She didn't know who Blaine was and why he went after her. The one thing did come to mind was that Blaine is after Andrew. She went upstairs and called Andrew.

(In London Later in the Day)

Andrew, Cedric, Gracie, Lewin, and Antonio are walking through town.

"So Andrew when did you become Champion exactly?" asked Cedric.

"More question's really Cedric," replied Andrew.

"What? I wanted to get to know you better because we haven't meet a US Champion before. The last one that any region other region meet was Sidney and that was a while ago," said Cedric.

"I guess that makes a lot of sense. I became Champion early this year," replied Andrew.

They walked past a flower shop and something in the window caught Andrew's eye.

"Those are Gracidea flowers," said Gracie walking next to Andrew.

"What are they?" asked Andrew.

"They only bloom this time of year. They are usually given as a way to show gratitude to someone," replied Gracie.

"I may have to get some then," said Andrew.

"We should stop now then while the store is open," said Gracie.

"Gracie we can't we have places to see you know that," replied Cedric.

"How about Andrew and I stop and we'll catch up with you at the park," said Gracie.

"Ok Gracie we'll see you two later then," said Cedric.

Andrew and Gracie walked into the flower shop. The florist was behind the counter. She turns around just as Gracie and Andrew walk in.

"Good evening Gracie its good seeing you today," said florist.

"It's good to see you too Jenny," replied Gracie.

"You know her?" asked Andrew.

"Yeah, she's my older sister," replied Gracie.

"So Jenny do you mail these flowers to the US?" asked Andrew.

"Well good sir we have a shop in the US. We can call them and get that place to send the flowers you want," replied Jenny.

"They have Gracidea flowers there?" asked Andrew.

"Yeah they do. Our grandparents run the shop there so let me give them a call one second please," replied Jenny.

Jenny walked into the back and made a phone call to their grandparents. She returned a few minutes later.

"Well Andrew they said they could send out four bouquets of Gracidea flowers if you would like?" asked Jenny.

"I only need three," replied Andrew.

Jenny hands Andrew a piece of paper to write the addresses places the flowers are being sent too. One is going to Sacramento, CA, the other is going to Boston, MA, and the last is going to Kansas City, Kansas. After doing so he paid for the flowers there and left the flower shop. On the way of walking to the park to meet up with the others Andrew receives a phone call from Katie.

"Hello Katie," said Andrew.

"Andrew, I had encounter with someone by the name of Blaine Drake," replied Katie.

"What? Are you serious?" asked Andrew shocked.

"Yeah I was doing some research on something and he approached me in the library. If it wasn't for someone named Warren I don't know what would've happened," replied Katie.

"Ok, I'm going to go meet with others and let them know. I'll then catch the next flight back there, whatever you do don't go looking for him. I'll deal with him when I get back," said Andrew.

"Ok I guess I'll see when you get back," replied Katie.

"I'll meet with you right when I get there. Katie try and relax and can tell by your voice your shaken up," said Andrew.

"Ok, I will and Andrew don't do anything to reckless," replied Katie.

"You're suppose to wait till I get back to say that," joked Andrew.

That brought a smile to Katie's face when he joked like that, but she does fill some concern for Andrew because she has no idea what Blaine is capable of.

"Ok Katie I'll talk to you later I just to the park where the other Champions are," said Andrew.

"Ok Andrew talk to you later," said Katie hanging up.

Andrew and Gracie walked over to where the others were.

"I need a word with you all now," said Andrew when he walked over to the other Champions.

"It must be important by the look on your face," commented Ash.

Cedric told his elite four to take a walk while the Champion's talked.

"Now what is it Andrew?" asked Cedric.

"Blaine Drake is in the US," Andrew said looking over at Ash.

"Is that true?" asked Lana shocked by what Andrew just said.

"I wish it wasn't true, but my girlfriend just called me and she was confronted by him in Kansas City," replied Andrew.

"So when are leaving back to the US?" asked Ash.

"I'm catching the first flight tomorrow. I'm really sorry to have to do this, but him in my region takes precedence over anything else," replied Andrew.

"We all would understand that we'll hold off questioning the German elite four and commissioner till you get back. I'll also make a call to Claus to head to the US and help capture Blaine if we can," said Ash.

"Ok I better go pack then I'll be back here as soon as I can. My only question is, is he acting alone or with some outside force," said Andrew.

"You think he could be acting with Team Darkness, or are you thinking of a far worse organization?" Ash asked Andrew curious by what Andrew.

"I won't know till I get back, if it is Team Darkness capturing him could lead my to Roger, and that's the plan over all. Other than that I can only hope he's acting alone, I won't know till I question people close to him," replied Andrew.

"Other than his elite four and commissioner is there anyone else close to him or knows him well enough?" asked Cedric.

"Yes there is one person I know," replied Andrew.

"Then if he's close to Blaine then wouldn't be easier question him here in front of all of us, rather then you questioning him?" asked Hideo.

"Yes it would, but that is something I'd rather not do. I'd rather question him in the US and keep in-region," replied Andrew.

"You have your reasons and I understand that," said Ash.

"Thanks for understanding, I better get back to my hotel to well rested to leave tomorrow," said Andrew.

"Antonio will take you back to the hotel, he'll then pick you up tomorrow morning and take you the airport Andrew," stated Cedric.

"Thank you Cedric," said Andrew before leaving with Antonio.

Antonio showed Andrew back to the hotel. Once in the lobby Andrew took the elevator up to his room. He then packed up his bags, he bought a plane ticket not to KC but to a small airport east of KC in the capitol of Topeka. He had thought of an idea while he was packing to get Blaine. All Andrew has to do is when he lands he has to call Warren to get to him and confront Blaine. That is where the plan starts.

Only in London 1 day and Andrew has to fly back to the US to go after Blaine. The worst part of it was that Blaine used Katie to get Andrew and if it wasn't for Warren, who knows what could've happened to Katie. While in London Andrew did meet some of the other Champions and even had a short battle with Cedric. Brady also beat Payton for his gym badge. The Contest will begin in the next chapter so stay tuned.

Trainer Update:

Brady has won his gym battle.

Andrew is know heading back to the states to go after Blaine.

Katie was confronted by Blaine which is the reason forcing Andrew back.
