Authors Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon! Hey everyone, didn't get any sleep last night and couldn't really sleep. So went ahead and got the rest of Chapter 31 completed XD. I am so going to regret it later today, but just really wanted to write and I rarely write in the middle of the night lol.
So yeah, double feature once again for Different Tale of Ash ketchum. Sadly this will only be the double feature, and not triple chapters in a row. Considering I have ideas working and flowing in my head for my other two stories.
Anyway this chapter like the one with Gardevoir and Sabrina, is related to real life. Where I actually did in fact watch a family member of mine, pass away in a hospital room right in front of me. Unable to do anything, unable to think what I could do- all I had at the time was the Pokemo Master soundtrack back in 2004. Remembering trying to keep my emotions in check while listening to one of the songs on there... It was pretty devastating for me and ever since then on Easter, it's been quite difficult to enjoy the holiday.
So yeah, I wanted to show just how confusing my emotions were between Ash, Leaf, Robert and the Pokemon in this chapter. Bring some tissues and I hope you all enjoy and have fun reading the chapter. I'll be sure to bring more upbeat chapters later down the road, to help even out the sadness lol. Enjoy.
Who's that Pokemon answer: It's Kanghaskan!

Ten years in the past, within the route that Ash is currently traveling in. A special bond happens here between the road way. A road that is leading to a standalone hospital that is built, only thirty minutes away from the town and Cycling road- one that is a dream of an elderly woman, alongside with some co-workers and friends had finally finished the construction of this new hospital. Along with getting a deed and rights to construct said building.
It took them almost an entire year of building, but they have manage to finally getting it done today. With the woman happily smiling and proudly placing her arms around her chest. Proudly looking over their achievements and laughing when her workers began cheering and rooting of their success. Her name is Gina, a quite the tough woman who dreams big and always wanted to make a hospital. Not only for Humans, but Pokemon as well- she even battled and fight against any Pokemon or people who would get in the way. Well more of scaring the Pokemon away, so they wouldn't get hurt.
While scaring away con artists or sketchy business men who wanted her to sell her building once it is fully complete and finished. She was tough and quite stubborn of ever letting this building go or be placed in the wrong hands. A personality trait that a lot of people respect, including the wild Pokemon nearby- who happily comes by once a day to either battle her and train, or have her wonderful meals!
Though this week and after opening up the hospital completely, her whole world will be changing and meeting her very first friend and partner for the years to come by. The woman who is working outside on the east side of the hospital building, is crouched down and tending to what seems like a small berry field that she had began making. In order to grow and make some delicious Pokemon berries for the Pokemon, and some fruits and veggies for humans as well. Her bun shape slightly gray hair is neatly tuck on the top of her head.
Wearing some field working garden shirt that came with a brown open vest, while also wearing some jeans that reaches ust above the ankles. Grunting and lightly groaning from pulling out some weeds, before raising herself up and swiping her forehead. Then looking up towards the sun with a happy smile, "It is such a beautiful day for gardening. It's a good thing I look at the weather forecast, cause we definitely needed to restock on some berries and fruits." She giggled out and faces towards the small garden she made.
"However..." then turn her head towards the right, "whatever Pokemon is sneaking into the gardens lately. Seem to have taken a fancy with the Nanab berries." The rubs the back of her neck, her brown eyes scanning the eaten and broken off berries. "Must have strong teeth in getting them or eating them on the spot." She then looks down at the tracks the Pokemon left. Between small foot prints and something being dragged along the grass.
"Must be a parent Pokemon, a small one if its coming to my garden to gather food for whatever baby they're caring for." She smiled, much she is bit upset her gardens is being messed with? She isn't to worry about her entire fields getting ruined by this said Pokemon. Seems like whatever Pokemon this is, really, really loves nanab berries!
After couple more minutes of toiling the fields and setting up the rest of the seeds for growing. The woman got up and walks over to a small table she set up, lifting up some orange juices she made for herself. Too then pausing halfway through sipping her drink, when she thought she heard what sounded like crying?
"Maaaa..." Is what she could make out the first time, but when it went away? She didn't hear it anymore and shrugged her shoulders to continue drinking her drink. Too then sitting down and getting ready to read a book, "Maaa...Maaa!" the crying return this time bit more forceful and sounding really hoarse. The woman placed down her book and began concentrating on the crying and figuring out where it is coming from... "maaawile, wile!"
"Is that a baby Mawile!?" She thought out loud and leaps off the chair and began looking around the surrounding area again. "What is a baby Mawile doing out here?" Until it clicked and dawned at her that those foot prints and what seemed to be something heavy being dragged. All make sense now and why her Nanab berries were bitten off or pulled from her gardens. A mother Mawile probably came to her fields and began using the Nanab berries as means to feeding her child, to possibly even carried the young baby over to them and had her eating or sucking the juices directly off from them!
"Maaaa, maaa!" The crying continued and had the woman slowly facing towards the back parts of the hospital. Where no doubt the sun barely shines over there, began to head on over there with bit of a slight jog hoping to reach the baby in time and hopefully care for it. The crying gotten louder and louder when she got closer to the end of the building. Taking note of where the trail of grass that wee pressed down and separated could be seen where the mother's trips took place.
She followed the trail and carefully pushing her way through some of the rose bushes and shrubbery of the small little area the mother took. Hearing the baby cries being louder, indicating she was going the right way. All she had to do was get around a large tree trunk that is in the way- though couldn't help but be impressed with the small entry way, the mother probably made with her giant maw- so that she doesn't have to walk around the giant tree to reach her nest and baby.
The woman then climbed over a large boulder and peeks her head over it. Too then widening her eyes in shock, fear and disgust at the sight before her...nearly throwing up right there of what she saw. There couple feet in front of the nest where the baby is or was, is the mother Mawile.
Laying face first into the ground, not moving at all or responding to her baby crying out for her. The maw part seemed to have been ripped right out from the mother, the body cover in nothing but cuts, burnt marks, signs of Pokemon biting into her or in this case...scavenging Pokemon taking advantage of her lifeless body, to even pieces of her fur was turn out from her.
The woman can even see some left over and rotten berries on the ground. Indicating the mother mindset was on feeding the baby, making sure the food wouldn't be taken and tried fending off her prey's from her. Too then possibly protecting her baby from any Pokemon, who might snatch it away or possibly even worst The smell is putrid and one can determined the body has been here for possibly a week now... ignoring that though the woman went and look over to the baby Mawile.
Who seemed to have been knocked out of her nest and possibly got dragged roughly from said nest, especially how undeveloped her maw looked and how tiny it is? She can surmise the baby is not even three weeks old and is struggling to even figuring out whats going on. Wailing and crying out for her mother, tears constantly flowing down her closed eyes. Her hands reaching out and grabbing any signs for her mother. It was hard to watch for the woman, no doubt the baby is even bothered by the smell that is surrounding the place.
But this how nature is and not a lot of Pokemon are lucky to survive at a young age or when protecting the young. Though it brought up a question of how long these two been here, let alone the mother? If she were to guess, the Mawile probably thought being near humans will help keep her nesting ground safe from any predators or even keeping her baby safe from harm. Which no doubt the loud noises and construction would scare any Pokemon away, to which the mother took advantage greatly. But once the building was done and there were no construction happening, it was all up for survival for the mother.
"Maaa, maawile, maaa!" The baby's cries returned the woman back to her senses and began walking on over towards the baby. Doing her best to not get sick from the smell, but also wanting to protect this baby, to defend her from anymore dangers and possibly raise it enough that it can defend itself from any harm. "Maa...Maa...Mawile?" The baby cries began stopping and calming down a bit, before it began with bit of struggle, opening its eyes up and began blinking the blurry vision away.
Sensing that this wasn't her mother at all, no. The smell and aura she felt from this giant is nothing like her mother. But it was calming and had quite the nice presence about the giant, that the little Pokemon not knowing better. Couldn't help but let out a small smile and began reaching up towards the woman. "Mawile, Maaa!" It chanted out happily and cooed out when she watched the giant bent down and began scooping it into her arms.
The woman began gently rubbing the baby on the stomach, making sure to be careful with the maw on the back of her head. Watching the little Pokemon thrash a bit and giggling about in her arms. "My you have such strong energy for a little tyke." Giggled the woman. Who began exiting out of the small forest and began heading back to the table.
Getting one last glance towards the mother, "I will do my best to watch over your daughter. You have nothing to worry about Mama Mawile." The woman prayed for the mother's safe journey, before laughing from the baby suddenly reaching up and grabbing onto her chin a lips. "I bet your hungry, and I happen to know exactly what you'd like, no doubt a nice Nanab formula will be the right thing for you. Hm," she then tickled the baby and had it thrashing about while smiling towards the woman. "Don't you worry little Mawile, I Salene will be sure to take care of you."
Thus a mother and after discovering the gender, daughter relationship began to form between the two. Where Mawile destiny will change drastically in the future..

Chapter 31: Tears of a Mawile.
Xxx
Present time and day with our hero Ash Ketchum, who finally made headway through the town and getting the needed direction. Of where he needed to go, had run into his friends he hasn't seen for nearly three months after the incident with Lavender tower, with the teens waving happily towards the boy. Well Leaf happily waving at Ash, while Robert smiled up to him and holding a map in his hands, trying to make heads or tails of where they needed to go.
Too which the trio began heading on out and began looking for the route that will take them to Cycling road, only...The three of them had gotten themselves lost and don't know where in the world they're at. "Ugh Robert come on," Leaf began whining while hanging her head back, "are we even remotely close to where the route is? My feet are killing me."
"We've only been walking for five minutes Leaf," Robert retorted and chuckle when the girl stuck her tongue at him. He adjust the map once more and began tilting it around, "and for your information I cannot read this map at all! I told you, many, many times before." Then groaned and held his head down. "I am bad with directions! You not remember it took us nearly three days, just to figure out where the road that leads to Celedon took us from Rock Tunnel alone?" He stated with a bit of a irritated tone.
Feeling Eevee happily patting his head, saying how it is alright. With Ash snickering lightly at the two teens, feeling quite happy to hearing their voices again and their presence as he and Pikachu. Shielded themselves with laughter when Leaf, spun around and began walking backwards pointing a accused finger. "Don't remind me, your the one who said that knew the pathway that will takes us there. Only for us to instead of going through Rock tunnel, we ended up at the abandon Power Plant!" She yelled out while throwing her arms out.
Which Ash and Pikachu blink their eyes while smiling brightly, "REALLY! No way, I bet you guys caught a lot of rare electric Pokemon there-" The happily shielded himself with a smile, when Leaf's head enlarge and began scolding him.
"Do not encourage this Ash! It was horrible," then a spotlight began shining on her with her collapsing to the ground. Wallowing in defeat, "the stench were putrid, the nasty smells and gases from the oil drums and left over fuel cans was horrendous! You couldn't move without feeling tears going down your eyes or scrunching your nose so badly, you feel like it would be glued-" Then deadpanned when she got interrupted with her acting, when Robert spoke up to Ash.
"It was really cool Ash, we saw some Electrodes, Voltorbs and even once in awhile what seemed to be an Electabuzz." The blue hair teen explained while Eevee yip and bark out happily in agreement. "Though there were also a lot of Muk's and Grimers, that it got bit dangerous for our health."
"Oh I will show you dangerous to your health Robert..." Growled Leaf while lifting a fist. Not liking that the two boy's were completely ignoring her self wallowing and acting. That she had to get up from the ground and is ready to march over and thwack their heads. Only to stop mid-step and heard what sounded like bushes rustling near them. Alerting the three and stared towards their left.
Waiting and being stock still in case it might be a Beedrill, or possibly a Primeape- considering they are nearing some mountain ranges? Mankey's and Primeape's tend to be more common in said areas, along with some other monkey type Pokemon. Only for them to relax and saw that it isn't those Pokemon, but nearly widen their smiles at the sight of. "MAWILE!" Leaf cooed out with glee and watched the happy Pokemon.
Who seemed to be wiggling herself out from the bushes to release her upper body. In which had Ash get a good view of the female Pokemon's bubble like rear, that her cheeks seems to be shaking and jiggling within her panties and skirt..."Wait what?" Ash suddenly said out loud, which even had Robert raising a confused brow as well. "Is Mawile wearing...a school uniform?" Ash asked lightly while raising a hand up towards the Mawile.
Who managed to break free from the bushes, nearly losing her balance by almost falling backwards- but quick thinking on her part, slammed her Maw back and used its teeth to latch on the ground and heft her back onto her feet. Making her to smiled brightly and began looking through the many berries she gathered in her arms.
Before turning around and stops- frozen on the spot of being caught and seen by what seems to be three trainers! Two of which had confused looks on their faces, while the slightly big chest female looked to be struck in admiration.
Robert nodded and spoke up, "Yeah, she is wearing a school uniform. Which means she is probably already owned by someone." Then scratches the back of his neck, "though why dress her up in a school uniform?" He pondered and then look to Ash lightly, thinking this is probably a good thing for the boy- since he had informed him back in Blare glitz. How he can somehow see Pokemon in a humanoid shape. Though laughed when Ash shook his head and hang it down a bit, muttering how it isn't helping at all. "I take it the uniform looks..."
"Yup, bit tight on her." Ash bluntly stated getting Pikachu and Eevee to laugh at his distraught. Even more so when Leaf, who finally got out of her admiration posture. Shook herself out of it and let out a happy scoff, to then flicking her long hair.
"Oh please boy's, no way a Pokemon will look good as a human in such uniforms." She cackle out while placing a hand near her mouth. Making Ash and Robert to stare, then Ash look to Robert asking if he had told her, in which Leaf waved it off. "Oh Ash, I figured it out soon as we met up with Cindy at Saffron city." She stated and thumbs to her breast. "Plus the many times Gardevoir or one of your Pokemon had nuzzled or pressed against ya. With the way your body reacted to them by pushing them away, despite to me and Robert. Looking like regular Pokemon knocking you down and smothering you with affection." Then turns and faces Mawile.
Who looked quite bored and uninterested in the conversation they were having. Well, minus the part about the raven hair trainer able to see female Pokemon true forms. Was a bit interesting but figure he is just pulling a prank on the two. "Watched you behave as if they were your height level and carefully pushing them away by the face. I knew something had to be up and then figured it out, when we went to face Erika, who too behaved oddly with her Lilligant." Then paused and smiled at the boy. "Oh which by the way congrats on that battle, and getting Lilligant out of her fears." Thus having Robert shouting what in a playful manner, to then punching Ash on the shoulder. Getting him to be bashful, before nodding his head at Leaf of how she figured it out.
"Erika had a girl to girl talk to me about how, she is able to see female Grass types in humanoid form and demonstrated to me. How when she hugs and cuddles with Lilligant, she stated I would see a Lilligant just being pressed against her chest with her head gently touching the garland. Only to tell me to focus a bit, and I noticed that her face and cheek were being pressed against something in the middle of the air and not the garland."
Then thrust her arm forward at the yawning Mawile, "So no worries about keeping secrets to me! Doubt she is even sexy in that uniform of hers, and that she got a pervert to making a school uniform to looking small or tight on her!" Then grabs a Pokeball, smirking at how ticked Mawile gotten about that statement and gave a very scary scowl towards the girl. "And not only that, but she is mine! Come on out Charizard!" She exclaimed and sent out her starter Pokemon onto the battlefield!
Watching the fire/flying type Pokemon letting out a roar and pumping of her arms. Before swinging her head downward and glare towards the school wearing Mawile, who glared and gave a scary smile, not only that but a knowing look too that did not go unnoticed by Robert and Ash. Too which Robert spoke up, "err Leaf, you might want to be careful with this one. Mawile is giving off a knowing look as if she battled Charizards before."
Which Leaf just waved it off with a cocky smile, "Please, she's just doing that to intimidate me. She knows Steel/Fairy types aren't great against Fire types!" Then she thrust her hand forward with a grin. "Let's start things off with Flamethrower Charizard!" Smiled the girl, watching her Pokemon pump its arms and then flew forward, readying a flamethrower attack!
Only for Mawile to have a glint in her eyes and zip right over towards the fire type. Then sucker punched him from the chin, causing Charizards eyes to get teary eyed and literally feeling the force tilting it backwards. Before Charizard could retaliate and recover from the move to use flamethrower- Mawile in the air quickly spun her body around to face it. Then let out a howl before throwing her arms upward! Summoning rocks from the air and had them slamming down into Charizard, by aiming at the wings to pin it down, followed by the last rock slamming into its back!
"Charizard!" Leaf cried out and then widen her eyes with a shock expression when Mawile finished things off by having her body glow brightly, to then dashing right into Charizard with a Return attack! Causing a moderate size energy dome to then Charizard, getting thrown out and slamming against the ground! Battered and bruised up along with having swirls in its eyes, groaning in defeat without even getting a single attack off! "No way...how did I lose?" Leaf said while collapsing to her knees and recalling Charizard with quite the surprised look on her face.
Mawile, after landing back on the ground began patting away the dirt from her uniform. While then looking towards the berries she had gathered, before fighting had placed them far away from the fight began and eye smile. Seeing they weren't damaged at all, before facing forward and puled on her eyelids.
"WHY YOU LITTLE BITCH, I'LL END YOU!" Leaf screamed out before being grabbed by Robert, who swung his arms under her arms. Struggling to keep the girl in place, with her thrashing and throwing her arms and legs everywhere. "Let' me go, let me go, that little tramp needs a beating! How dare she disrespect me!"
"Leaf it isn't worth it! Besides she kick your butt too, if you were to blindly charge in there and try taking her on like this!" Robert shouted and began pulling the thrashing girl away. Having Mawile to flick her forehead and began laughing at the distraught girl. Making Ash and Pikachu to getting little ticked off and steps forward.
"Alright enough, one thing to humiliate my friends. But laughing at them too, I'll teach you not to mess or underestimate us!" Ash declared, watching the female Pokemon stop her laughing and grinned towards the boy. Taking note of how the school shirt, is lightly opened up to revealing the Mawile's cleavage. With the buttons in the middle even straining to staying on, showing her side boobs in the middle, with her mid-section is being exposed for him to see. While the skirt is barely covering her thighs, leaving no imaginations behind of what might be under the skirt. "Ninetales I choose you!"
The fire fox burst out from her Pokeball and landed onto the ground. Raising her rear up in order to show off towards Ash, growling out before raising an eyebrow at the Pokemon in front of her wearing clothes...in which she wag her tails a bit and stared at Ash. "Her trainer might've dressed her up is the best answer I can give." Ash stated lightly with a chuckle, making Ninetales to nod a bit and face forward once more. "Alright, she has Rock tomb, Sucker punch and Return, Ninetales. Watch out for the Rock tomb and we should be good- now begin things off with Will-o-wisp!"
While Leaf who is crouched down and lightly trailing a finger around some grass, pouting while leering at the trainer muttering out. "Only reason you know that, is because I went first." She stated in a matter of fact tone, making Robert to chuckle sheepishly at her behavior.
Ninetales closed her eyes and began gathering energy, with blue looking fires began spinning and rotating around her before a bigger fire ball appeared and began zooming straight towards the Mawile. Who happily grinned and raised her hands upward! Shocking everyone there when she used Protect! Defending herself from the flames before they could touch her, too then dispelling it and summoned Rock tomb once more!
"Dodge them and counter with Fire spin attack!" Ash called out, watching Ninetales running forward and leaps into the air, before firing off her Fire spin attack! The flames hitting the ground and began swirling upward and growling large! "No way she can avoid this." Ash grinned, watching Mawile still holding onto the Rock tomb, which confused him a bit. "Hey...why is?"
Then got his answer when the Mawile let out a battle cry and threw the Rock tomb instead at the Fire spin rather than Ninetales. Causing the fox to widen her ruby eyes at the sight of the three rocks, one at a time hitting the top, middle and bottom parts of the tornado and canceling it out. Too then crying out in pain! When Mawile then quickly activated her Return attack once more and bashes right into Ninetale!
Sending the fox flying backwards and hitting the ground hard, like Charizard, is covered in bruises from the return attack and had promptly fainted on the spot. Having swirls in her eyes and groaning heavily from the pain she received from the Pokemon! Making Ash to also stare in disbelief while recalling the girl back to her Pokeball. "Okay then, no way I am going to give up now and-"
Though collapsed when Mawile let out a loud yawn and shook her head. Saying no while waving him off, making the boy get a ticked mark! Like Leaf, he also got grabbed by Robert keeping him from marching over when Mawile, chanted and threw her hips left to right- as if saying she has no times for weaklings like him and gathered her Berries and began running off. "Come back here and say that to my face! I will show you we aren't weak, get back here and fight Mawile!" Thrashed and shouted the boy with Robert. Grunting and gritting his teeth of trying to keep Ash in place all the while thinking to himself.
"Of all the friends I make, why do I have to have two hot heads?" He asked himself and let go of Ash, though flinched when he let go too soon- thinking Ash calmed down only for the boy to start fumbling forward and slams into the ground face first. Then lightly lifting his head up and winces at Robert, who smiled sheepishly and gave a sorry eye smile towards the boy. In which Ash sighed and just rested his face back on the ground.

Mawile, happily running on through the road and heading towards her home. Laughing and giggling at the big haul of berries she forage today. Even smiling brightly as not only did she get a lot of berries for her mother? But she also got the chance to experience her first ever Trainer battle! She has to say despite them losing to her, she loved the expressions they had on their faces when they saw her move sets and pummeled them without any struggles!
Heck, she couldn't help but smile brightly when she took on two fire types and won! She knew learning Sucker punch and Rock tomb would be great moves to have against attacking Pokemon. The female Pokemon then hum lightly towards the one boy in the group with the Pikachu?
With the way he eyed her and such had Mawile wondering, if there was something on her at the time? But didn't look like it, but more of like he could actually see her figured? She read up on history books at the school her mother took her at, about certain ancestors of humans and Pokemon...that they used to live one another and even married each other in the past.
Having newborns with incredible DNA structures that allows them to have a special trait called 'Vision of Pokemon'. Though over the years and course of time, humans and Pokemon were diverging into marrying or pairing up with their own species. Few exceptions here and there, causing the bloodline to die out over the years. With a few if not couple of descendants, having a strong trait for 'Vision of Pokemon'.
Shaking her head and not wanting to get into the subject. The female Pokemon walked through some bushes and began entering a parking lot. Before stopping near the curve, look left and right to be sure no cars or transports are moving about and happily hops onto the road and began making her way towards the large hospital building ahead of her! "Mawile, maw-maw!" She called out to the security guard at the entrance.
Who turned and waved, "Ah there you are Mawile- your mother got a bit worried." The tall security guard said, while lifting his hat a bit and made one step towards the door. So they will open for the girl, "Go on through, you know where to find her." He laughed when Mawile bowed in thanks and ran on inside the hospital building.
Then made her way towards the front office and reception area. Where nurses and staff members were taking calls, with one of them spotted the happy Pokemon who is walking through the halls and pull the phone back. "Mawile, just go ahead! We made sure to move your mother to the lower floors, so be easier for you to walk in and out." The nurse said with a giggle, watching the Pokemon happily squeal out and double her efforts of reaching the room. "No running in the halls! We just mop-" the nurse tried to warn.
Only to be late when Mawile feet touched the wet surface. Began thrashing and sliding about on the floor! Her body turning and spinning about, doing her best to keep a hold of the berries she gathered for her mother, while her maw is doing its hardest to bite down or grab anything for support! But also avoiding anything that were on wheels or could move easily on said wet surface. Only then decided the corner of a turn was the best option! Having Mawile let out a loud maw, too then slamming down onto her back!
Causing the berries to go flying into the air and falling right on top of her! Thankfully, not breaking or bursting into juices when they got dropped and just rolled a bit. While Mawile, groaned lightly with swirls in her eyes and giggled out weakly of thanks for the warning. Getting some of the staff and doctors who were walking about.
To come over towards her and help the girl up and help gather the berries again. With Mawile laughing and giggling from the petting she is receiving, with some nurses help fixing up her shirt and skirt, laughing with the Pokemon. Their fingers were tickling her and having the Pokemon, shake a bit from said sensation before thanking them with a bow. To then happily accepting the berries in her arms and began heading out once more. Find where her mother's room and give her gifts of berries, hoping that these will be good for her and help her regain her strength again!
With said mother in question Salene, is resting in one of the hospital beds. Reading a book in her hands, being comfortable in the hospital bed. Machines were in the room connected to her arms and bit of her body. Sighing a bit and rested the book down to look at the clock in the room. Bit worried and concern for Mawile's safe returned, hoping the girl didn't get into too much trouble. While then looking towards the flowers that the young Pokemon brought, being in a vase and filled with water.
Then turning towards the rows of picture frames. That had her and Mawile living together and helping one another out with the hospital and greeting of people. Too some pictures having birthday parties with the young Pokemon, with a huge smile on her face and happily hugging Salem in the pictures. Too late ones with Mawile, going to school, riding things at the nearby park that was built couple years back. With some pictures having her and Salem enjoying some time at a water park.
Granted, Mawile wasn't treated like any other Pokemon. Salene took the time and effort to raise the female Pokemon from being a baby, to the age she is now- having to do research of what or how to care for a Mawile and what kind of foods it eats. Even though, she did find out the Nanab berries were her favorites when finding her, too then the female Pokemon taste changing through the course of time.
Hell, there were times where Salene tried and give Pokemon battling a shot. Boy was it messy and having a fussy Mawile, who got really reluctant of battling. It took a whole year just to get the Pokemon to understand that in order to become stronger and handling wild Pokemon outside of the hospital? She needed to train and get some battle experience in her...
Thankfully and after reassuring the Mawile, the female Pokemon got into it real fast and quick. Too even enjoying battling and wanting to learn Pokemon moves, to not only fight her opponents but to also protect the co-workers that began working at their hospital. Even watching some videos of the Pokemon league to study even more about Pokemon fights.
Though after ten years of raising and caring for Mawile. Salene began feeling sickly and her body weakening to the point, she began losing feeling to her leg to the point. She couldn't really walk on them without some sort of support or walking cane.
She then began having trouble breathing and getting short of breathes, that she couldn't go outside as much she wanted to- even greeting Mawile at the entrance of the hospital anymore. Or having her help with her tend the gardens on the outside of the building. But if anything and knowing things are getting worse...she has no regrets and even proud she achieved her dreams of building a hospital for both Pokemon and humans.
Raising an amazing Pokemon in Mawile, who could be heard singing in the distance and out the door. Having Salem to laugh and place her book down on the nearby table, then hiding a wrapped up gift into the draw that was a shape of a ball. Before leaning up and fixing up her blankets, hearing a knock at the door with the tip of Mawile's maw showing. "Come on in Mawile, no need to knock." Salene called out to the girl. Who happily moved her maw to the doorknob and opens it up.
"Maa-Maa, Mawile!" Cheered Mawile happily while she began walking on in and over towards her mother. Raising her arms a bit to show her the berries she had gathered and forage for. "Mawile, wile, wile!" giggle the Pokemon who then moves over towards the small sink in the room.
Placing the berries into it and pulls over a stepping stool. In order to start cleaning them and washing away any dirt that might be on them. "Please Mawile," Salene gave out a coughing laugh. "You don't have to mother me or worry about me okay?" She assured her and then shook her head, when Mawile just turn the sink on and ignored her. "Your always like this, and to think I am suppose to be the mom." She laughed bit hard and covering her mouth a bit, before coughing and gagging lightly.
Which alerted Mawile who spun around and placed her hands onto her hips and lean forward. "Maa-maa, wile, mawile!" she scolded towards her mother while wagging a finger. Before crossing her arms and giving a stern look. Telling the mom that she shouldn't try to laugh that hard, or she will start coughing like that.
Salene groaned after her coughing fit calmed down and then slammed her head back against her pillow. Sighing out and shaking her head, while joking out "yes mom. I will be sure not to laugh hard." She laughed softly, earning a shake of Mawile's head and watched the Pokemon returning to the sink and began cleaning up the berries.
Making Salem to smile softly and gently turn her head out towards the window. "It is such a nice day out, wish I could spend some time outside and tend the gardens." Salene stated softly while shifting her gaze to Mawile. Who had paused and looked towards the window, "I may not have the strength to stand and such, but I can still sit down and work on the garden." She continued saying while rotating her hand a bit smiling.
Making Mawile to turn at her with her own eye smile. "Maa-maa?" then points towards the wheel chair, asking if she wanted to head outside and do so. Making Salene to look over at the said wheelchair and then shook her head, making Mawile to soften her gaze and lowering her shoulders.
"Not today...maybe some other day." Salene said as she began looking around the room. Which the room is more of like an apartment room slash offices. That he co-workers went and remodeled one of the hospital rooms, to fit her needs. Having a small living room like area where he bed is in- a nice T.V set for her and Mawile to go and watch movies or shows on. With the DVD connected next to her bed, with nice see through red curtains at the window.
And even a small kitchen area for them to get or place food at or cook. When Salem is strong enough to cook that is. Listening to the water running and the Pokemon humming a happy tune that echoed in the room, it was a lullaby she always sing to Mawile when she was a baby. It took Mawile awhile to start learning how to hum or even sing the song, but happily taught her how to do it and glad she did. Salene felt a small pain shooting through her back, with the heart monitor dipping lightly before returning back to its normal speed. "Hey...Mawile dear?" Salene called out with a smile.
Making the girl to turn and ready to hand over the berries in a tray, before tilting her head. "Do you think, you could go and check on the Nanab berries? I am sure they're in need of watering today and don't want them to shrivel up and die from the heat around here. So think you could go and water them for me?" She asked with a weak smile. Having Mawile to hum lightly and look down at the tray of oran berries, before looking back up to her and raised the tray. "No worries, I'll be sure to eat the oran berries, if you go and water the garden," She said.
Getting Mawile to nod her head and happily walks over to the bed. Placing the tray over her mother's lap, giving her a light kiss on the cheek before hopping down from the foot stool next to the bed and walks over towards a watering can. Then filled it up with water before she went and left the room, closing the door behind her and began happily skipping her way towards the outside.
With Salene on the bed smiling sweetly at the door, before she goes and opens the drawer next to the bed and grabs the present inside. Hearing the heart monitor increasing in speed and starting to get louder and louder. "Mawile...I wish I could use this for you, but..." then tears began trailing down her cheeks. "It seems like would not be today, I'm sorry...I do hope you find someone that could use this."

"Okay we are officially lost aren't we?" Ash asked lightly while panting a bit. The trio after battling Mawile, with the two of them getting defeated by the Pokemon. Continued their way into finding the road that will take them towards their destination. But luck will have it and Leaf this time using the map to guide them.
The girl like Robert, couldn't make heads or tails of how the map works. Getting bit frustrated and irritated too the point. That she is about ready to crumble the map up and throw it away! "ARGH!" she yelled while lowering the map and did exactly that, crumbling up the map into a ball. "Whoever gave us this map should be ashamed! The directions or land marks don't even resemble anything we've seen!" She yelled out while then throwing it to the ground.
Pikachu let out a low chaa, getting quite tired and bit hungry during their search for where the road might be or where the route is. With the mouse Pokemon gently leaning more against Ash's head and hat, hearing his stomach growling out. "Pikapi, chuu..." then hummed when he felt Ash rubbing his ear.
"I hear ya buddy, I'm getting hungry too- and I know we have ingredients left. But we're running really low on supplies." Ash then turned to Robert and Leaf. Hoping they have supplies left, though saw them shaking their heads. With Robert raising a finger saying-
"Much I wouldn't mind sharing you two. Leaf here will have a fit if I suddenly give my food away on the account, I need to keep my sugar in control." The older teen explained, getting Ash and Pikachu to nod lightly. Understanding greatly that he doesn't have the best of health, and Leaf will throttle him or nag him about giving away his food.
"I only have a water bottle left guys." Leaf stated while rubbing the back of her neck and closing her eyes. "That and I only have like two bags of chips. I can't share them so we might as well keep pushing forward until we get lucky and find-" Then nearly trips along with Ash, when Robert suddenly shouted and points ahead.
"Hey! I think see a hospital up ahead!" He exclaimed with a smile, "granted," then tilt his head bashfully. "I am not fond of hospital, but it is better than starving out here. We should go and check it out!"
Making Ash and Leaf who recovered quickly from tripping up. Look at one another and then shrugs with Ash saying, "Hospital food may not be great. But beggars can't be choosers! So let's go and get some food!" He cheered while throwing his arm into the air and then made a mad dash towards the hospital building, with Leaf and Robert right behind him. Pushing and making their way through some of the bushes and tree branches that got in their way- while slowing down once in awhile to not hit any trees.
Reaching towards a good clearing and possibly the back of the hospital- in which Ash watched Pikachu lean against his shoulder and next to his face. Before sniffing out the air and jumps ahead of the boy, "Pikachu? Hey where you going buddy!" He called out and watches the electric mouse go passing by some bushes, with his ears poking out from the other end.
Making the trio to slow themselves down to walking speed and began gently moving through the large shrub Pikachu went through. Then hearing the electric mouse like out a curious, "Pikaaa..." as if something caught his interest? Making the three to look up ahead after freeing themselves from the bushed and gasp at the sight in front of them!
There in front of them and what seems to be a berry farm. Is Mawile, the same Mawile they came across earlier today and lost against! Humming a happy tune with her voice and carefully tending the small berry farm at the back of the hospital. Watching how diligent the female Pokemon is and how careful she is with the watering can. That they couldn't help but stare in awe at how peaceful she looked.
Even more surprising is that she is even picking off, any speck of dirt or weeds from between said berries. That look like Nanab berries, looking ripe and ready to eat or salvage from the farm. Ash couldn't help but adjust his hat a bit and smiled. Who knew a feisty Pokemon like Mawile, will have quite the cool hobby? "Wow, if I know any better I would believe her to be a farmer and not a Pokemon with the school uniform." He chuckle out, causing Mawile to literally jump out of her skin and whip around!
Then widening her eyes at the sight of the three trainers from before! Who were waving lightly at her sheepishly and coyly. Making her to raise a brow and then blushed happily when Ash leaned against his knees and asked, "Is this your farm Mawile? If so, your doing a terrific job! I didn't know Pokemon like you knew how to farm."
Thus getting Mawile to rub the back of her head and raised the watering can, "Maa-Maa, mawile wile!" She chattered out. Getting Robert to raise a brow, catching to how Mawile said Mama with her name.
"Maa-maa...You mean your Mom taught you how to farm?" Robert asked, getting Leaf and Ash to look at him and then back to the girl. Who rapidly and excitedly nod her head and then gently sway her watering can left tor right, demonstrating how she taught the girl. How to water all the berries in a precise way and moving her body. In order to reach the hard to reach berries in the back. "I see," Robert then smiled, "you learn a lot from that and know how to reach the back."
This had Leaf clapping her hands, "wow! I'm impressed although," then glared harshly. "Any reason you taunted us and talk down to us cockily when we lost. What was that all about huh!" Leaf demanded an answer and watch Mawile stare for a bit, then few more before tilting her head and points towards the trio.
"Mawile, wile, wile?" Waving her fingers to the three and asking in her tongue about how all trainers taunt their opponents? Making Ash to watch a bit and then stood upright. Catching on immediately of what she is saying or gesturing.
"Ah I see, you thought that taunting is how things work with Trainer battles did ya?" Then adjusted his hat and lean against his right hip. Laughing lightly, "not really Mawile although there are times where people tend to get carried away." Making the girl to blink her eyes and then bow down in apology. Surprising the trio of how mature this Pokemon is and really polite too- that even Leaf had to bow back in saying how there were no offense. "Say," Ash then spoke up.
"Mawile who taught you to fight like that and learn those moves, to defeating fire types?" He then place a finger on his chin. "Was it your mother that taught you that?" In which the response is a shake of Mawile head, giggling lightly. "Oh, then...where did you?" Ash question then is answered when the female Pokemon. Walks on over towards him and then points towards Pikachu next to him, making the mouse Pokemon to raise his ears.
Too then Mawile placing the watering can down. Doing a box like gesture with her hands and then pretending to be speaking through a microphone. "OH! You, you been watching trainers battling on the TV! Is that where you learn how to fight and handle type advantages?" She asked, though got a nod to the TV when she pointed at Leaf, but shook at the last part. "Okay so Tv, but no on the type advantage...then?"
Only for the trio to let out a collective ah, when Mawile giggled and began grabbing the hem of her skirt and began swaying left to right. Then did a motion of a school girl holding something in front of her waist.
"You went to school and learned about type advantage there?" Ash, Robert and Leaf even Pikachu. Asked all at the same time, before looking towards one another and whispering from Ash. Asking if school's even allowed Pokemon to learn? Making Robert to shake his head and replying 'I don't know' fashion, while Leaf hums and closes her eyes.
Then pound her open palm, "You were home schooled!" Leaf exclaimed then pump her arm, when Mawile nodded with a bright smile and even began clapping. Enjoying the aura and presence all three of them have, believing they would've been troublemakers when she fought them. But actually speaking to them and talking to them, about how she learned about battles. It is quite fun and starting to lose track of time with the trio.
"Maa!" Then lightly slap her forehead and did a wait a moment gesture with her fingers. Before turning around and walking over towards four Nanab berries. Plucking them off and then handing them with a smile, "Maa-maa, Mawile wile-wile!" She chanted out saying enjoy Mama and Mawile's Nanab berries! Watching the group nodding their heads and thanking Mawile for the food, then humming in delight of how juicy and delicious they are.
"Oh wow these are great Mawile, you and your mother sure have a green thumb." Ash said, having the girl to lightly kick her feet. Before blushing and giggling even more when he went and asked, "So why are you wearing a school girl uniform. If you were home schooled?" Then blink his eyes when the girl happily claps her hands together, then did a house gesture.
"I get it, you were home school when you were young. Then went to a human school?" Robert asked. Finding a stump to sit down on, along with Leaf sitting next to him. All three trainers fascinated by this discovery. "Was it hard fitting in?"
"Mawile, wile, maw." Mawile chanted lightly while waving her hand in a so-so fashion. "Maw!" Then cheered saying once she got comfortable, it got really fun and enjoyed hanging out with the other children in the classroom and teacher. Even giggling out and explaining how her mom, would disguise herself into the school and secretly watch over her- or pretending to be a school staff. Calling her over and explaining some ground rules of what and what not to do.
While all this is happening Salem, who's room is literally next to the Berry farm. Despite hearing the heart monitor increasing in volume, to then switching to being calm. Heard the happy voice of her Pokemon Daughter outside, talking to what sounded like Pokemon trainers. Hearing the happy tone and the female Pokemon, talking and explaining everything they been doing together.
Had a big smile on her face and tears of joy beginning to run down her face. Laughing to herself, when this Ash fellow asked Mawile if her mother is a Pokemon trainer. "Maybe there is a way to give the Pokeball for your birthday Mawile...I just hope you won't be sad."

It has only been twenty minutes and the group were still engross with this conversation they're having with a wild Pokemon! How they learned Mawile is still wild? The girl told them how her human mother actually adopted her when she was only five weeks old and brought her in to living with her. Raising her to be healthy and strong, to even treating her and having her be like a daughter she never had before- in which Mawile even sometime forgets that she herself is a Pokemon.
They hang out with her some more and began following her to a flower field. Which Ash went and asked a curious question. "So if your mom's not a trainer, yet you know how to fight. How exactly did you get so good at figuring out what to do against your opponents?" He asked, with them helping the girl out by picking flowers and gathering them up for her mother.
Mawile eye smiled and blushes when she bent down to grab couple flowers. "Maa-Maa, wile Mawilewile." Explaining to the group of how over the years of living with her mom. Watching television and different types of movies or entertainment. Or learning some of the stuff from her schools, she began taking notes of her time at classes of how typing works or what moves are good to use. While watching Pokemon league battles, to confirm if her decisions of using or learning said moves will benefit and is glad that her research came to fruition.
No doubt they thought with a big smile on their faces. After using those moves on them and how effective they were? She is going to keep those four moves in her arsenal, unless she needed to change up her strategy and learn new ways to fight. "That's incredible!" Ash cheered while walking over to the girl, same with the others. Having a handful of flowers and giving them to Mawile. With Ash smiling down at the stomach height female Pokemon.
"Aw man, would be really cool to having a Pokemon like you." He said and had the girl blushing brightly. "But I don't think I should catch you, don't want to separate you from your mother." He then wiggled his hands against her head. Getting the maw part of her to snicker and laugh lightly from the amazing feeling of being petted. With her amber eyes looking up with admiration towards the trio.
"So, shall we go and surprise your mom with these flowers?" Ash, Robert and Leaf asked all at once. Making the girl to nod her head strong and happily points towards the hospital!
All the while asking the trio if they could tell stories of their adventures. Which they will happily oblige the female Pokemon as they head to the hospital. While asking the Mawile if she wouldn't mind, knowing how her life is living with her mother. Making her to agree and began sharing each others tales and stories, or least Mawile doing her best to gesture how her life was with her mom.

A heart monitor is going off and being loud inside the room. Rapidly increasing in volume and getting dangerously close to a point where the patient is about to go into arrest. Doctors and nurses were moving and walking about in the room. Having some electric Pokemon there to help with electricity and coursing some of it into the patient.
The room is crowded and all the co-workers who works for Salene- were rushing about helping one another, going in and out of the room. In order to bring large bags of ice or having some Snowrunts to walk into the room and hop on up onto the bed with the patient. "Come on, come on- you can get through this! Don't quit on us now!" Shouted one of the doctors who began pumping and slamming his hands against the patience chest. "Where's those stabilizers"
"We can't give her anymore, if we do! We will only worsen the process!" Exclaimed a nurse who came in with some more ice. "Her body is heating up to fast, don't know if we can cool her down fast enough!" They exclaimed, watching as the ice Pokemon who are very close to the patient. Began saddening and shivering even more frantically, hoping to cooling down the person they're treating.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" The Doctor cussed loudly as he began shooting electricity through the patient body. Hoping some sort of response or electric shock could get her to respond. "Come on...don't do this, you can't leave. Not yet, not on your daughter's birthday!" He exclaimed and pressed down with the electric pads to send another shock through the body. Only for the heart monitor to not slowing down or going back to normal. As they desperately try and revive the patient on the bed, who has shown some movements but not a whole lot. Their eyes hazy and foggy watching the burning light above them to get block by her co-workers who voices were jumbled up and mumbling towards her deaf hearing.
"You can't go...not yet." The co-workers were doing everything in their power to keeping her with them. Wanting to assure her daughter that everything will be alright once she returns, let her know that her Mother- will still be here welcoming her with open arms. They needed to be strong and push through, pray for the best things will work out.
"Mawile..." Her voice broke out only once, causing everyone there to suddenly stop and stare down at the patient. Before suddenly a loud-
CLASH!
Class shattering on the floor with water spilling out and spreading onto the carpet. With bouquet of flowers scattering about and rolling across the floor. Amber eyes shaking and trembling at the sight before her, one hand holding onto the doorknob of the room while the other. Had froze in place and dropped the vase in her hands- it was Mawile.
"Maa-maa..." she silently said and felt warmness going to her eyes. Her field of vision shaking with her trembling eyes and everything starting to go dark. Locking eyes with the person who watched over her for ten years. "Maa...Maa-Maa!" She began shouting and started running into the room!
I close my eyes and I can see~
Watching some of the nurses and assistants turning towards her and ready to stop her. "Maa-maa, Maa-maa!" She repeated over and over, ducking underneath the staff members and rushing her way over to the bed. Knocking and pushing some of them away, "Maa-maa, Mawile, Maa-maa!" She screamed and cried out! Struggling to get herself onto the bed, feeling her legs and waist being grabbed by the staff.
The day we met, Just one moment than I knew~
"Happy birthday Mawile, your a whole year older!" Came's Salene's voice echoing through Mawile's head. Imagery of how happy and excited the baby version of herself was, of receiving a delicious looking cake and couldn't help but use her maw to eat the entire thing. Making her mother to gasp out and stopped her from doing so! Scolding her or explaining to her how, eating the whole thing would upset her stomach!
You're my best friend, Do anything for you~
"Maa-Maa, Mawile, wile, mawile!" The Pokemon used her maw to knock the staff away and fully climb onto the bed. Watching the ice Pokemon quickly leaping away for her to reach her mother. With Mawile tripping up and falling onto her hands and knees, trying to make it to her mother's face.
"Oh where, or where did my little Mawile went?" Her mother's voice rang out searching around the hospital of the past. Where her daughter would be hiding at, with little Mawile covering her mouth and trying so hard not to give her hiding spot away, but burst into laughter when her mom. Found her maw and pulled her out from the bed, "There she is! I found you you little rascal!" She cried out and wiggle the two noses together.
We've gone so far and done so much~
And I feel~
The Mawile finally reaches up to her mothers face and gently cup her hands against her cheeks. Sniffling and crying badly, watching those foggy eyes shift ever lightly towards her amber eyes. Making Mawile to shut them tight, "Maa-maa, maa-maa, maa-maa!" She cried out and hiccuped through her voice. Causing the entire staff there and the doctor to look away. Shoulders shaking and gritting their teeth, in order to control their emotions and tears that were about to break through their eyes as the heart monitor just keep's rising and rising.
Like we've always been together, right by my side- Through thick and thin~
"See Mawile, this is where I found you or heard your crying." The mother explained showing a slightly older Mawile, the Nanab berry farm she has been making before meeting her. "This is a berry farm, we grow berries here and make nutrients out of the berries we cultivate. And use them as recipe's for medicine..." The mother then turned towards the smiling Mawile, who look up at her and grin brightly when she asked. "Want to learn how to farm like Maa-Maa?"
You've part of my life, that I'll always remember!
The Time has come, it's for the best I know it~
Ash, Robert and Leaf came running down the halls when they heard a loud crash. Followed by Mawile's crying voice coming from one of the rooms. Ash being the first to arrive at the door stopped and felt the entire color on his face disappear and is completely pale. Follow by Leaf, who came over and look inside, only to gasp and cover her mouth whispering 'oh no'. Before she turned around and stopped Robert from looking, saying don't look inside! Making the teen to question it only to then hear the tone of Mawile's crying.
Who could have guessed that you and I...~
Somehow, someway we have to say good bye~
Making him to widen his eyes and listen in on the Pokemon. "Maa-maa! Mawile, mawile, wile, Maw, Maw!" Cries coming out of the room. The little Pokemon lean closer to her mother's face, getting more tears to fall down her face. Lightly rocking her mother saying how can she see her, can she hear her?
More memories flashing through her head as she continued calling and crying out to her mother. Whose eyes were half opened, her lips slowly curling up into a smile as she can hear Mawile voice...she can see her daughter. Her daughter's tears and warm touch to her face. "Mawile, I am sorry that I couldn't stay any longer." She thought to herself.
You help me find, the strength inside~
And the courage, to make all of my dreams come true~
How will I find, another friend like you~
Recalling memories of how she and Mawile when she became in her mind. A teenager and went out to shopping for clothes and school uniforms for her to wear. Enjoying holding hands with the Pokemon, who's eyes wandered the entire building with curiosity and wonder! Laughing and enjoying posing for the clothes she gotten from her mother. "I knew it would be coming and have no regrets, spending these years with you and this hospital."
Two of a kind, that's what we are...~ And it seems, like we've always been winning.
But now our team, is torn apart~
How I wish we could go back to the beginning!~
Then memories of her sneaking into the school and watching Mawile throughout the day and how she is coping being with so many children and humans. Watching her skip her way back home and telling her how her day was. Too even sitting down in the living room, watching movies and TV shows- too even watching some of the Pokemon league battles, that were aired at the time and how intense they were.
The time has come, it's for the best I know it~
"So please...don't cry, don't be sad and depressed. I felt fulfilled watching you grow up and becoming an amazing Pokemon...a daughter to this old woman's eyes. Who never once had a family of her own." Mawile cries intensify and became louder when she took notice of how cold her mother's face is becoming, along with the eyes slowly closing down. With heart monitor hitting it's peak and is about to flat line.
Who could've guessed that you and I...~
Somehow, someway~ We have to say good bye~
"Maa-maa! Maa-maa! Maaa-maaaa!" Mawie cried out and shook her head rapidly. Too then pushing herself onto her mother, hugging the woman with bes she could while snuggling and pressing her face between her neck. "MAAAAA-MAAA!" Her cries could break anyone's heart, the Pokemon daughter wailed out and cried, holding and clutching even tighter against her mother. Memories going by her and all the fun times they had.
Going to school, the mall, spending time at the local park. Too even having game night and movie night together. Even, enjoying how her mom allowed her to watch the Pokemon battles on the TV whenever the Pokemon league has started and being broadcast! The trainers who were listening in had their own shedding tears. Ash hanging his head down and stiffen his shoulders, his facial feature being covered by his hat. With Pikachu on top of him whining at the sight before him.
Leaf hugging tightly into Robert who had his arms around her. Letting her wail into his chest and pushing heavily into him, with the blue hair teen. Doing everything he can to keep his emotions in check, having a hard time swallowing whenever Mawile's cries got loud and frantic.
Mawile, just couldn't stop and broke down when she felt her mother's arms. Weak as they were, slowly beginning to wrap around her and gently moving her face ever slightly towards the female Pokemon. Giving a very happy mother kiss to her forehead, managing to whisper out. "I love you and will watch over you forever Mawile." And then the line went flat as all you hear. Is Mawile's cries and the sounds of the monitor...
Some how today... We have to say goodbye.~

A week had passed as our heroes wanted to stay and be with Mawie for the funeral. Ash being the first one to hold onto Mawile and be there for her time of need, including Leaf and Robert. Who stuck by and stayed with the female Pokemon. Who did her best to keep herself in control.
Sniffing and hiccuping as they watch the funeral take place and giving out their speeches about the mother and how great she was to them, and to Mawile. When it was done and everyone had began heading out- Ash and his friends stayed one more day at the hospital. Still wanting to be there for the female Pokemon, hoping that the girl wouldn't be depressed or stayed in a depressing mood.
However they needed to get going as the Pokemon league. Is only few months away and Ash is pressed on time in getting all the gym badges he needed. The Doctor, who is close friend to Salene. Went ahead and gave the trio directions of where they needed to go. Telling them how they're just thirty minutes away if they stay on the road. All the while helping the trio restock on previsions.
"What about Mawile, is she going to be okay?" Ash asked after lifting his bag and stared at the doctor. Who nodded his head.
"She has calm down and is currently reading a note that her mother left for her." Then gently sighs and leans on his right leg. "I wish we could've done something, it is very hard to watch someone you care for so long. Pass away on your birthday no less..." then smiled. "Thanks though for being there for her time in need. Before all that happened, we saw her talking and interacting with you guys with such a happy smile. We did our best not to inform her of what was going on with Salene..."
Making the trio to nod in understanding, "you were looking out for her. You didn't want her to be upset on her birthday. Despite, she would know the truth sooner or later." Leaf informed. Getting the doctor to nod his head and then waved good bye towards the trio. Who head on out towards the road and in the direction of Cycling road.
But after thirty minutes and Pikachu ears, constantly moving up and down- turned his head. "Pikapi!" He suddenly shouted while patting Ash on the head. Making him to wince lightly and flick the paw away.
"Ow, what Pikachu?" And then turned around along with the other two. Spotting at the hill they just left, there standing at the top. Panting and breathing heavily all the while looking to be holding two separate items is Mawile! "Mawile?!" The trio shouted together and watched the female Pokemon.
Running on down the hill and surprisingly not wearing her school uniform. Rushed her way in order to reach the trio or meet up with them at the entrance. But couldn't catch up in time and needed to grab things from the room, a birthday gift and letter her mother left for her to read. In which she had to get one of the nurses to read for her.
Now that she caught up to them and is breathing heavily while leaning against her knees. Had the trio stare a bit and lean back, when she look up at them and handed out a letter. Making Ash, who is in front to hum and took it- opening it up and reading the note.
"Dear Mawile,
You probably have someone reading this for you after finding it hidden with your birthday present. I want to let you now how wonderful you are and how, I enjoy living my life with you and being your daughter. It felt destiny wanted us to meet and having me rescue you, from your situation. Especially when your original mom did her best, taking care of you and making sure you've become healthy. If I did not hear your cries at the time, who knows what would've happen to you or could've happen to you if I did not show up.
Inside that wrapping paper is a Pokeball, a special crafted Pokeball made by Kurt. I wanted to use this on you and make it official that you live with me. Without anyone taking you away from me, considering I didn't actually caught you. But adopted you, it is a Love ball- I personally requested Kurt to make this to show the bond we have as mother and daughter...
But since I will be gone, I want you to find someone out there. Someone who you deem is worthy of having you as their Pokemon partner. I know doubt with how much you studied, practice and learn those wonderful moves. You be a great Pokemon to them, like how you were a great daughter to me- so please.
Be strong, be brave and stand tall- you will always have your mother's love with you. I will always be there for you, not physically but spiritually. Find someone who will look out for you and make your dreams come true, for me and you. I love you so much Mawile.
Love Maa-Maa~ "
The trio sniffed a bit and began laughing softly to one another, when Mawile gave a teary smile. Too then showing the group the Love ball the mother described in the note. "Maa-Maa, Mawile wile." She chanted out, saying how she figure one of them will be great trainers for her. And her mother probably would want them to have her as well.
Leaf and Robert look towards one another before nodding their heads and smiled at Ash. "You take her Ash." Having the boy to turn his attention at them. "You were there to comfort her when she had to leave the room. You were there with her at the funeral ceremony and during the burring. Think it is only right that you take her." Robert explained, with Leaf folding her hands behind her back.
Watching the boy stare at them for a bit and then chuckle when he felt Pikachu. Rubbing his cheek against Ash's, saying why not and even points towards the female Pokemon. Who is quite happy at the idea and decision, especially smiling with a blush knowing that Ash is able to see her true self. So who knows, might be fun to hang out with any other female Pokemon he might have and enjoy teasing him.
"Well, if it's alright with you Mawile?" He asked and smiled when she nodded her head and tosses him the love ball. Which he grabbed and happily enlarges, "Alright, welcome to the family Mawile!" He said and watch the girl squeal in delight and high fives the Love ball and gets suck right into it without any resistance.
Life moves on and life ends, it is the way of how this world works. Sometime we cannot choose or decide how things turn out. But its how we leave an impression for those in the future, to look upon the deeds of those in the past. Salene, had work her way into helping the world by making a hospital for both Pokemon and Humans. Her chance meeting with Mawile is one to remember by and will always be remembered within Mawile's heart and ours heroes hearts.
As they walk forward with their heads held high and new fond courage from a mother's love for a Pokemon. Has brighten their future and will keep going, as our hero's journey continues..
To be continued...

Who's that Pokemon!: "It wears its mothers skull on its head. No one knows what its bare face looks like. However, its clear its always crying."
