"Ash wake up!" Krystal told the raven haired young man as she walk towards the waterfall she make in her and Ash's cave.
The young Aura Guardian get up remembering that today he starts his Aura Guardian training, not seeing the vixen around he was about to shout.
'I'm washing myself with the bathing waterfall' Krystal told him through her telepath ability.
'Okay Krystal let me know when you're done.' Ash said through his mind.
'I will." she replied
'And there's a other reason why I needed to catch a Psychic type maybe if I catch another Pikachu and use a Alolan Thunderstone it?' he thought to himself.
'Okay Ash I'm done.' Krystal told him.
Thanks tell me when you are dress' Ash told her as he remember the few times he walk in on some of his female traveling companions while May, Dawn and Bonnie were understanding about the mistake while on the other hand Misty and Iris were more violent about.
'It wasn't my fault that they didn't lock the door or finish dressing before saying they were finish.' he thought.
'What was that Ash?' Krystal questioned.
'Sorry I was just thinking about the times I had walk in on my female traveling companions when they say they were finish.' Ash answered.
'I see.' She said.
'Yeah three of them were understanding the last two are a different story.' he said.
'What do you mean?' Krystal questioned.
'The two were violent.' Ash answered.
'violent? What do you mean by that?' She questioned.
'They toss anything at me bottoms, soap bars, even rocks and most of the time it was their fault!' Ash thought as he remembers the time Officer Jenny nearly locked Iris away while her Pokémon would had be given to other trainers with a less violent side.
This upsets Krystal.
'And they are your friends?' Krystal questioned angrily.
'Yes they are, but like I have some draw backs so do my friends' Ash reply.
'I see btw I'm dressed.' Krystal said.
'Thank you.' Ash thought as he makes his way towards the bathing waterfall, passing by a fully dress Krystal whom head to starting them a meal.
He enter a makeshift bathroom/washroom there are a waterfall at the back at wall use for washing one's self and their cloths, a bowl was next to the fall and at the farthest corner is a hole for the other business.
"So what's the plan for today Krystal?" Ash questioned.
'Remember we're starting your Aura training' Krystal said while finish making the meal and looking for something.
'So how will training go?" He questioned.
'I will show once we're finished with our breakfast.' she answered as smiled as she found the item she was searching for.
'Okay.' Ash said.
Once Ash finish with his bathing he saw Krystal had make fruits salads and some type of egg.
"That looks really good." Ash said looking at the food.
"Thank You, I thought you wouldn't want to eat any bugs." Krystal said.
Thanks for the meal." Ash said before eating.
"You're welcome." Krystal said with a smile.
"So what type of Aura training are we doing?" Ash questioned.
"Who will be my teacher then?" Ash questioned.
"I will show you after we finish eating." Krystal answered with a smile.
"Okay then." Ash said as he continued eating.
After They had finished eating they walked to the same field where Krystal found him.
"So who's training me?" Ash questioned.
Krystal pulled out a small box from her tail, the box was a normal wooden box with no designs on it, the blue vixen opened it to show seven gems.
"What are those?" Ash questioned.
"What are those?" Ash questioned.
"Do you remember the Time flowers?" the Cerinian asked the young Aura Guardian.
"Yes why?" He questioned.
Because these are Time berries." Krystal answered as she pick the Sapphire Time berry and toss it on towards the ground.
Once it landed a bright light erupted from it making both Ash and Krystal close their eyes, when they open their eyes what stood in front of the duo is a ghostly image of a slender young man of average height and build, he has "droopy" eyes, and his light brown hair is somewhat unruly.
The image wears a white single sleeveless Roman garb with brown warrior sandals.
"What's going on?' Ash questioned.
"Before my ancestors had left your planet each head of the seven noble houses grew a Time berry from a Time flower and inside of them is the stored knowledge of that person." Krystal said as she looks over the image.
"They made them just in case the normal people had cut down the numbers of the Aura Guardians, think of them as an aura base AI." the Cerinian vixen told him.
"So this is the young Aura Guardian I'll be training? what is you name?" the Aura AI ask.
"Ash Ketchum." Ash said.
"I see one of my descendant." the Aura AI said.
"Yes I am." Ash said.
"Okay first lesson is control! Aura as you know is the life energy of everything to begin get a leaf!" the Aura AI told Ash.
"Right." Ash said.
"And try to focus your Aura on the area that hold the leaf." the Aura AI said.
"You got it " Ash said.
"Then when you feel it add more leaves the more leaves well show how much of both control and aura you have." Aura AI. said.
"Sadly you can't use any Pokémon base attack yet since I can guess both of you don't have golden leaves?" the Aura AI question.
"What? I could use Pokemon attacks?" Ash questioned.
"Ash! I've already told you that yesterday!" Krystal said shock that Ash had forget about that fact.
"Well try to save another planet could had play a part of that." Ash reply as he added his 16th leaf.
"Yes but we need to find out which is your primary type which will be hard without any golden leaves." the Aura AI told the pair.
"I see so where can we find these leaves?" Ash questioned.
"Some where's on your home world Ash?" Krystal said with a flat look
"But doesn't means there isn't other way to find out." the Aura AI said.
"Really there's another way to find out?" Ash questioned.
Yes but it which tell you if your typing is Normal, Ice or Water." the Aura AI answered.
"I see." Ash said.
"How does that test works?" Krystal ask
"You fill a cup or bowl with water and the Aura Guardian in training channel their aura into the water and then base on the flavor the water has that would tell you what type is your primary is." the Aura Ai answered.
"So base on the berry flavor that is my primary type?" Ash asked.
"Yes that is correct." The Aura A.I said.
"That's awesome!" Ash said about to get up.
"Hold on your not ready for that you might be ready for using aura in combat." the Aura A.I. told Ash.
"What do you mean?" Ash questioned.
"You could use aura to enhance your muscles which means you could hit harder and faster then a normal human." the Aura A.I. answered the question.
"Really?" Ash questioned amazed.
"Try it out." the Aura AI tells Ash.
"Okay then." Ash said.
Ash walk over to a tree taking a deep breathe then he channel his aura into his right arm and hand, in quick motion he punch the tree which knock down.
"Wow" both Ash and Krystal said it was one thing to see that type of action in a play or in a movie but in real life was a whole other story.
"And that's just one of the things your Aura can do." The Aura A.I said.
"And now for the hard part using it in real combat, Ms. Cerinian here will be your sparring partner." the Aura AI told Ash.
As they spar.
Ash could understand his Pokémon's pain in past battles against someone whom knew your next move whether through seeing into the future or reading your mind, but the sparing did help with both his aura control and using it to enhance his body in seconds instead of the minute it taken him to do a single punch.
Krystal now knew why the old kingdoms of Ash's home world feared their people alliance just the fact Aura Guardian could do so much damage with one punch were terrifying.
Ash try to grab Krystal's shoulder but the vixen was still faster than him but unfortunate for both he did get a hold of something but it wasn't Krystal's furry body it was her golden top Ash kept his head down so he couldn't look.
"Sorry Krystal." Ash said blushing.
The Cerinian vixen looked at Ash wondering why he's sorry? Then she saw her top in his right hand quickly Krystal use both of her arms to cover her "girls" and walk towards the young Aura Guardian.
"It's okay Ash but now I know not to wear this type of clothing in battle maybe once we get off of Sauria I could get some clothes that won't come off so easily." Krystal said showing the young male she wasn't mad at him.
"Right anyway should we continue?" Ash questioned.
Grabbing her top from Ash's hand Krystal walks behind a three to put it back on.
"You can get more experience in a real fight!" Krystal said as she could sense something is coming their way and it was a afraid.
"What do you mean by that?" Ash questioned.
Just then a stegosaurian knock Ash on to his butt.
"Xocf kxo JxuhfScun uhm0 aj Ukkusbadw m0 xemo! (Help the SharpClaw army is attacking my home!) it said in it's own language.
"Ow, what's going on?" Ash questioned as he got up.
Krystal walk over to the panic dinosaur and calm it down, the dino in turn repeat what it had said.
"She said "Help the sharpClaw army is attacking my home!"!?" Krystal translated.
"Fcoujo jxen mo udt m0 vhaodt kxo nu0 ke 0eih kharo! (Please show me and my friend the way to your tribe!" the Cerinian vixen asked the stegosaurian nodding her head the dino went in the same way she came from.
"Are we going to follow her?" Ash questioned.
"I did ask her to show us the way to her tribe." Krystal told as she follow the dinosaur.
"How many Sharpclaw are at her home right now?" Ash questioned.
."I didn't ask her and if I translated the question and the answer would had taken time!" Krystal answered.
It took about three minutes to reach the panicked dino's tribe, from the looks of it there were eight dinosaurs walking on two legs and look similar to Tyrunt, they all have shields but in other hand either have a axe or mace.
"Okay so we each have to deal with four." Ash said as he counted the Sharpclaw soldiers.
"Right so how should we do this?" Krystal questioned.
"We should get them away from the others since they could use the others as living shields" Ash said as he remembered a few times Team Rocket use the same strategy.
"Right." Krystal said.
"Tell me Krystal can you make them think they heard one of their fiends that they found a Krazoa Shrine and lead them away of those dinoes it's also allows us to them fight without worry but we still should keep their fights close to one other in case one of us need back up." Ash told Krystal.
"I'll try." She said before taking a deep breath.
Xo0 A veidt edo ev kxo Bhuqeu Jxhadoj 0ei veih semo xoho!' ('Hey I found one of the Krazoa Spirits, you four come here') Krystal sent the telepathtic message trying her best to make it sound male, and just like Ash had thought the soldiers went as two groups of four both hers and Ash's fights will happen ten feet away from one other.
"Alright let's do this." Ash said.
Ash went left while Krystal went right.
Ash punched a blue one's shield the impact nearly turn it inside out and the soldier cried out in pain he could guess he had broken the soldier's arm not letting the Sharpclaw soldier have time to recover he sent another punch this time to the soldier's chest, without missing a step the Aura Guardian in-training kicked another soldier's head.
A yellow Sharpclaw soldier tried attacking Ash with their axe but the Pokémon trainer stopped the weapon with both hands and used the solder's hips as spring board to launch himself at the last one.
"Medjkoh!"(Monster!) were the last soldier's words.
"I don't know what you said but I'm sure it was an insult." Ash said before seeing the soldier had died.
Krystal slammed her staff into a solder's shoulder blade then pole vaulted herself and sent that soldier into another, as she landed the Cerinian vixen fired an energy blast from her staff at the third soldier which left a smoking hole in their chest.
"Three down, one to go!" She said to no one.
Krystal quickly blocked a mace strike from a brown scared soldier.
"Tumd 0ei viqqrucc! 0ei udt kxuk medjkoh medbo0 ev 0eih!" (Damn you fuzzball! You and that monster monkey of yours!) the soldier said.
"Doloh succ mo eh m0 vhaodt jisx adjickj" (Never call me or my friend such insults!) Krystal said before delivering the final blow.
After searching for some vines to use as ropes the Cerinian vixen tied up her two living opponents then it hit her Ash had never been in a war or taken a life, Krystal quickly double tied the knot she rushed over to the young Aura guardian.
Once she reached him did Ash realize what he did to three of his opponents.
"I...I killed them!?" he said emotionless.
Krystal hugs him.
"I got you." She said as she comforted him.
I'm sorry you have to do that Ash." Krystal told him
"I still can't believe I did that." Ash said.
"I know but don't worry it'll be okay." She said.
Then a small stegosaurian went to the duo and nuzzle Ash's side, he turn his head to see the youngling's blues eyes.
"Kxudb 0ei veh juladw m0 xemo udt vumac0 majkoh dubot medbo0." (Thank you for saving my home and family mister naked Monkey.) it said.
"He said "thank you for saving my home and family mister n*** Monkey." Krystal translated.
"Please tell him I'm glad to help." Ash ask Krystal with a soft smile on his face.
Krystal smiled.
"M0 vhaodt aj wcut ke xocf." (My friend is glad to help.) She said.
The young one let out a happy sound as he went back to his family, which makes the heroic duo smile more and reinforce Ash's belief that what he did as the right thing.
"Sihjo 0ei! 0ei udt 0eih nxeho ev u muko!" a voice said by the sounds of it the owner was in a great deal of pain.
The human and Cerinian vixen turned their heads to see the soldier which Ash had used spring board as he use both of his arms to move.
This angers Krystal.
"I take it he said something inappropriate?" Ash questioned feeling he didn't need her to translate what the soldier said.
"Yes but given he can't fight as he use too" Krystal answered as the two walk over to the soldier.
The yellow scaled soldier turn his head to look at the heroes, a low growl escape from his throat as his red eyes meets the heroes.
"Nxuk te 0ei kne nudk?" (What do you two want?) the soldier question.
Ash could tell now when he used the soldier in front of him and Krystal as a spring board he destroyed the soldier's hip bones.
"He wants to know what we want." Krystal translated.
"Tell him we want to know whom is his leader, how many Krazoa spirits do they have?" Ash said knowing now is their best chance to get that much information.
"Nxem aj 0eih coutoh, xen mud0 Bhuqeu jfahakj te kxo0 xulo?" (Whom is your leader, how many Krazoa spirits do they have?) Krystal question the soldier.
"Jadso m0 cavo aj vehvoak kxudbj ke 0eih vhoub ev u muko! m0 coutoh aj Wodohuc Jsucoj uj veh kxo Bhuqeu jfahakj no xutd'k veidt u jadwco jxhado 0ok!" (Since my life is forfeit thanks to your freak of a mate! my leader is General Scales as for the Krazoa spirits we hadn't found a single shrine yet!) the soldier answered.
Krystal translates what the soldier said.
"What do you mean by your life is forfeit?" Ash ask.
"Nxuk te 0ei moud r0 0eih cavo aj vehvoak? udt no dek mukoj!" (What do you mean by your life is forfeit? and we're not mates!) Krystal translates Ash's question.
"U Jxuhfscun nxem sud'k melo vujk odeiwx aj u jcu0ot Jxuhfscun! kxod nxuk uho 0ei kne?" (A Sharpclaw whom can't move fast enough is a slayed Sharpclaw! then what are you two?) the soldier replied.
"He said "A Sharpclaw whom can't move fast enough is a slayed Sharpclaw!"" Krystal told Ash
"No uho uccaoj udt vhaodtj." (We are allies and friends) Krystal answered the soldier's question.
"What should we do with this Sharpclaw?" Ash questioned.
Like he said his life is forfeit and by Sharpclaw tribe laws he would be killed by a male whom is interested of having his mate as theirs and if don't happen then his mate would have to become a soldier." Krystal told Ash.
"Is that bad?" Ash Question.
"Sharpclaw females aren't strong like their male counterparts their jobs are gather fruits and vegetables or taking care of their younglings, only a lucky few survival the training to be a soldier but none came back alive when they are sent out with a group." Krystal answered.
"That sounds horrible." Ash said.
"Unlike their races dinosaurs evolve slowly and they are just starting their own civilizations, I'm sorry Ash but it's either we kill him ourselves where his mate won't see it or one of his fallow Sharpclaw soldiers kill him while his mate is force to watch it." Krystal told him.
Ash closes his eyes for a minute before turning to Krystal.
"Ask him how much his mate means to him." He said.
"Xen misx teoj 0eih muko moudj ke 0ei?" (How much does your mate mean to you?) Krystal translates the question.
"Nxuk k0fo ev giojkaed aj kxuk? jxo'j moudj oloh0kxadw ke mo olod av jxo dek kxo mejk rouikavic vomuco, eh kxo rojkojk wukxohoh, A bden jxo u nedtohvic mekxoh ke eih 0eidw udt A neict hukxoh ro baccot r0 0ei kne tomedj adjkout ev roadw baccot nxaco m0 vumac0 aj vehso ke nuksx." (What type of question is that? she's means everything to me even if she not the most beautiful female, or the best gatherer, I know she a wonderful mother to our young and I would rather be killed by you two demons instead of being killed while my family is forced to watch.) the soldier answered.
"He says that she and his children mean more to him than his life." She translated.
"I see." Ash said.
Ash grabs the soldiers spear and aims it before skewering the soldier.
"Rest in peace." Ash said after he dealt the final blow.
"Kxudb...0ei" (Thank...you.) the said before dying.
"I don't need a translation to know what he said." Ash said.
"We should take the two I knock out and tie them up somewhere else since who knows what this General Scales might do to the Dinos we had saved." Krystal told Ash.
"Right." Ash said.
Then the two heroes carried the last two living soldiers out to a old tree and tied them to it, then the duo meet with the Chief of the Thorn Tail tribe(the Stegosaurians) but they didn't know where a Krazoa Shrine is at.
They make it back their cave.
"Krystal could I sleep with you tonight?" Ash ask the vixen.
"Sure Ash." Krystal said.
Krystal knew Ash might have nightmares about his first time kills, the two push their hey beds together the pair laid down on the now big hey bed.
