Chapter 13

A month later, Ash and Lillie are now standing in front of the castle, with all the other aura families behind them. Ash turns around and says, "Guys. Today is the day we search far and wide for the Infinity Gems. The nation's army is still healing, but they will fight us the moment they see us. For our mission to succeed, we have to do the necessary kills, but leave the innocent and harmless alone."

Everyone nods at Ash's words, and now they all head to the locations of the Infinity Gems, Lillie turns to Ash and says, "Are you sure they'll succeed and bring back the gems?"

"I have a lot of faith in them." Ash closes his eyes. "We're staying because I have the power to do the Rumbling and they're just trying to retrieve the gems. Besides, we also have enemies at the shore that still wants to fight us."

Lillie sighs as they see the ships coming, "They are never going to give up, are they?"

"Not if we're all killed." Ash says, "That's human nature."

Then Ash and Lillie are leading the army as the ship is approaching, the ones on the ship are his former friends, led by Chairman Rose of the Macro Company. Chairman Rose notices Ash and Lillie in the front lines, and he says, "It seems like Ash Ketchum has shown himself. Let's get revenge for Wyndon and put an end to this guy!"

Gary, Brock, Misty, May, Max, Cilan, Clemont, Bonnie, Mallow, Kiawe, Lana, and Sophocles are showing determination as they are also prepared for their weapons and Pokeballs.

They fire the first shot with the cannons, while Ash and Lillie use Fire Blast and Hydro Pump at the same time, destroying the cannon. Ash smiles and says, "Look at you, since we're married and already bonded, you can easily use the Grand Master's Aura as well."

"I'm glad to be able to access more than 900 moves to fight." Lillie says while waving her sword, raising the attack stat. Ash also uses Bulk Up with the gloves. When they see the people jumping onto the beach along with their armored train, East says, "Looks like they are not going to give up that easily, are they?"

"We'll fight till the very end." Golly says. "Most of our skilled members are already out there trying to find the Infinity Gems, we'll do our best to defend our island."

When Ash's former travel companions are now in front of Ash and Lillie, Ash says, "So we met again."

"To think you just show up in the opening like this. You really are confident are you?" Brock asks.

"Maybe I am, we did manage to gain our victory in the battle of Wyndon." Lillie says, "And since you're in our territory, you're not going to go back alive."

The memory of what they did to Wyndon a month ago makes them furious, and they all try to kill Ash and Lillie for that, but Ash and Lillie just use Bounce to dodge the attacks and cause the former travel companions' attacks to hit each other.

They also manage to land in front of them and cause some of them to get paralyzed. Kiawe mutters, "How... Ice Type Aura Users shouldn't have been able to use Bounce..."

"Oh, if you don't know, Ash is my lovely husband. We also made love and now I have the ability to use Grand Aura." Lillie smirks, "I just didn't want to show that in front of you back in Wyndon."

This only fuels their anger as Lillie all this time is holding back on them. They try to get back up and attack once more, Max manages to hit Ash through the right shoulder, causing him to wince a little in pain.

"If you think that's going to hurt me, then you're wrong." Ash growls before using Recover to heal himself, and then he uses Quash on every one of them, giving Lillie the chance to attack first.

Lillie throws two Pokeballs and yells, "Typhlosion! Mamoswine! Flame Ice!"

And the two Pokemon are now giving a lot of burn damage on the former travel companions. "Almost forgot Lillie was also Dawn and Serena as well..." May mutters.

"Respond to my feelings! Mega Evolve!" Ash sends out Charizard. Bonnie and Clemont gasp to see the Mega Stone on the neck, which is the same as Alain's. Charizard Mega Evolves into his X form, and Ash yells, "Thunder Punch!"

The attack is directly hitting Misty's Starmie and Gyarados, causing them to get knocked out. "That's Alain's Charizard... the same one who defeated Ash's Greninja..." Clemont yells.

Ash smirks, "Just like how Lillie is also Dawn or Serena, Alain is also a part of me. I was basically fighting myself in the Kalos League after all."

The information causes the people to get shocked, and Bonnie says, "Then what about Mairin? What if she knows about you doing such a thing?"

Ash grits his teeth and says, "Don't you dare mention her name! The people you are fighting for killed her just because she is against fighting the Aura Users!"

Suddenly, Ash's body is covered in fire as he strikes Kiawe, causing him to fall to the ground. "Kiawe!"

"That's Raging Fury! It's like a Fire Type version of Thrash!" Lillie gasps as she sets up the Rain Dance, trying to calm Ash's anger. Gary tries to use his toxic gloves to punch Ash, but Ash quickly goes for the Bullet Punch as the two of them are struggling to see who goes down first.

"Ash, enough already. Everyone has suffered enough. You've suffered enough." Gary says. "Why are you struggling, what are you fighting for? I just want this to be over."

Ash says nothing before letting out a Hyper Voice, Gary uses one of their hands to cover his ear, but it's not enough. And at the same time, a Thunder arrives and knocks him back to the ground along with the other former travel companions.

"What the?" They turn to see Chloe, who is actually the one doing that.

"That thunder... did you do that, Chloe?" Clemont asks.

Chloe shows a determined face and says, "I'm sorry..." Then she goes with Magnet Rise, floating into the air and creating the Electric Terrain. "I used to be on the same side as you, but now, I'm an Aura User and I'm fighting to protect my family!"

The former companions can't believe what they're hearing, Bonnie says, "No way... you weren't an aura user before!"

Ash smirks, "You don't think we have found a way to transform normal people into Aura users like us? Chloe becomes one of us and she did the right choice. Her family is safe from the people you wish to protect."

And the Rain stops and turns into a Sunny Day, a giant Pyro Ball destroys the ship. "Sorry we're a little late, but we finally got here as promised." Leon is the one who kicked the Pyro Ball.

"Damn you, Leon!" Rose grits his teeth as he is on the armored train along with the other Macro Cosmos staff members, "We'll blast him into pieces! Get in position!"

"Yes sir!" The staff says, but Leon traps the train with the giant Fire Spin. One member yells, "I believe it's not wise to engage in a fiery vortex!"

"No! I have to punish this traitor myself!" Then much to their horror, other reinforcements arrived. And they are the former Champions.

Cynthia kicks the sand to use the Sand Attack on some trainers, causing them to be blinded until Steven Stone appears and uses Flash Cannon to blast them. Lance also fires the Draco Meteor, hitting the people who are trying to hide, while Diantha goes for the Moonblast. Alder goes for the Attack Order, causing a lot of Combees to attack the trainers, and Geeta uses Power Gem, also trapping some of the trainers.

"No way... it's the former Champions of every region!" Brock says. "All of them are aura users?"

Ash smirks and says, "Looks like you're outnumbered. You still have a chance to surrender, or else be killed since you don't have any more ships to bring you back."

"Why you... We're going to fight to the bitter end!" Misty yells as they continue to shoot bullets and weapons at them, Eve closes her eyes and says, "For Alice and our deceased comrades, lend me your power!"

Then she does the Z Move and yells, "Guardian of Alola!"

The Tapu Fini that she's partnered with becomes a giant and starts to punch everything on the way, Diantha comes towards Ash and says, "Are you hurt, Ash?"

"I'm fine, Aunt Diantha. The Recover is keeping me stable for now. But the problem is the armored train that they are using..." Ash says.

They see Lillie still struggling to dodge the armored train's attack. Chloe is also battling the others using her Copycat Eevee. She is a little struggling since she is still new to being an aura user.

"Since the Sunny Day and Electric Terrain is active, I think it will be better if we call in the Paradox Pokemon." Geeta says.

"Right." I throw three Pokeballs, revealing Volcarona, Iron Moth, and Slither Wing. With the field effect, Volcarona and Iron Moth have their Special Attack boosted while Slither Wing gains the Physical Attack.

"Feiry Dance and Bug Buzz!" I command and all of them manage to destroy the armored train that Lillie is struggling against. Lillie smiles before sending out Squishy, having it use Thousand Arrows to destroy the Flying Type Pokemon.

Bonnie and Clemont are now watching and Bonnie says, "They also have Squishy helping them as well..."

"Bonnie?" Clemont is confused about what his sister is doing. Bonnie says, "I have been wondering if we're doing the right thing..."

"What are you talking about, Bonnie?" Clemont asks.

"I think that aura users are not in the wrong in the first place... it's the government... they are only trying to survive..." Bonnie says. "I hated them for killing Iris like that, but after seeing how many people we killed because we think we are right... they killed because they think they are right as well... everyone's a hero in their own story..."

Clemont is surprised to hear what Bonnie is saying, Bonnie says, "That's why, I made up my mind. I'm not fighting them anymore."

She starts to run, and Clemont yells, "Bonnie! Wait!"

When Ash and Lillie notice Bonnie rushing towards them, they are preparing the weapons. Bonnie yells, "Wait, I'm not going to fight you! I want to surrender!"

This causes everyone to gasp in shock. "I become the Champion because I want to keep my family safe from being killed! To be honest, I rarely understood you, Ash, Lillie! I don't care anymore! Leave my brother and I alone from this war, please! After that, slaughter away! Kill as many people as you want!"

Everyone is shocked to hear what Bonnie says, Chairman Rose sighs, "We have another traitor. Deal with them."

The staff are a little scared, but they are still trying to aim the attack at Bonnie, Clemont notices it and jumps in front of her. "Clemont!" Bonnie yells.

"Bonnie... It's okay... I'm here for you." Everyone gasps to see that Clemont is being shot by the train and he screams in pain. The next thing Bonnie knows, her brother is already a burnt and vague body.

"Clemont..." It is then Bonnie lets out a horrifying and agony scream.

Here is a new chapter, and as you can see, this is the first part of the battle and I hope you like it. The next chapter will be more battles.
