(A/N)

Hello and welcome to chapter 2 of the Pokemon Mage.

I just want to say thank you for liking this story so far. I'll admit that I like writing it as well.

Also, there were some questions that I would like to answer. I've already answered them to Pink Lightspeed Ranger, but I might as well tell you.

Ash started out with Pikachu, so that's his only Pokemon as of now. Thought I might start off small since he and Lucy are new Pokemon Mages. Yes, Alolan Pokemon and Z-Moves will be in the story alongside Mega Evolutions. And yes, PCs will be in the story too.

Also, I saw that you guys like the idea of Ash x Erza, so it's safe to say that it's confirmed. I hope you guys will like it. However, I'm not gonna introduce Erza right away, she'll appear eventually.

To recap what happened last time, Ash travels to Fiore and meets two Pokemon mages named Natsu and Lucy. The three encounter a criminal named Bora and after defeating him, Natsu takes Lucy and Ash to Fairy Tail.

Now that Ash and Lucy are about to join Fairy Tail, what will be in store for them?

To find out the answer, let the journey continue! Also, enjoy the opening.


The Pokemon Mage Opening 1 [V Volt -

JorporXx (original by Yusuke Kamiji)]

Scene opens with quick flashcards of Natsu's scarf, Lucy's beanie, Ash's hat, Gray's necklace, and Erza's earrings before a close up visual of a Pokeball appears in the background.

We have dragon, ghost, flying, poison, bug, water, rock,

Grass and dark, electric, ice and normal too

Fire fighting and steel, ground, psychic and fairy

In the sky, a bunch of fairies are flying in the sky before they fade away once a flock of Pidgeys, Starlys, and Spearows appears.

The Pokemon Mage Logo appears in the sky.

So come on with me on this journey, always moving to the light reaching for me

Scene cuts to Team Natsu riding the train, much to the discomfort of Natsu, who is leaning against Lucy as she tries to get him off of her while Gray looks out the window, Erza is eating a strawberry cake, and Ash petting Pikachu.

Rain clouds cover the sunny sky, but I know we'll make it through if we try

Natsu and Gray are butting heads with each other with Lucy panicking in the background while Ash attempts to break up the fight before Erza steps in and stops the fight by stepping in between Natsu and Gray with her arms out, causing the boys to get scared.

Use your courage and you'll see that you can be anything you want to be

Team Natsu are walking down the streets of town before Lucy runs ahead and stops in front of a clothing store for Pokemon Coordinators, causing her to squeal with excitement.

Cherish every single encounter

And then you'll be the best challenger

Five mysterious trainers appear while each of them are with their Pokemon: The first with Elekid, the second with Alakazam, the third with Glaceon, the fourth with Aron, and the fifth with Squirtle

If I keep moving ahead, my hopes and dreams will come right to me

Ash and Natsu running down the fields before stopping at the edge of a cliff as they see a cloud of darkness engulfing a town, causing them to tighten a fist in anger.

I've learned this lesson from you that these dreams come true, so

I'll use this strength to

The two turned around and sees Lucy, Erza, Gray, and the rest of Fairy Tail smiling and waving at them.

Team Natsu starts walking before they jump off the cliff.

All of our bonds glow a fiery red and then spread out for the world to see

Touching everyone's heart as they all are a part of this energy inside of me

Cut to Team Natsu doing various activities: Ash, Natsu, and Lucy running away from a swarm of Beedrills, Erza and Natsu clashing with each other, Gray and Ash fighting a plant monster while Lucy is caught in its vines, and their pokemon dodging multiple magic attacks before they jump into battle.

Shining blue, all our hopes hatch anew and the yellow flowers start to bloom

All of the world can feel it too

Quick cut of Team Natsu commanding their Pokemon to attack: Lucy commanding Klefki to use Fairy Wind, Gray commanding Totodile and Snorunt to use Water Gun and Icy Wind, Erza commanding Ivysaur and Honedge to use Razor Leaf and Slash, Natsu commanding Charmander and Munchlax to use Flamethrower and Headbutt, and Ash commanding Pikachu, Froakie, and Starly to use Electro Ball, Water Pulse, and Wing Attack.

Team Natsu jumps in the air as their magic circles appear.

We have dragon, ghost and flying, poison, bug, water, rock,

Grass and dark, electric, ice and normal too

Fire fighting and steel, and then psychic and fairy

Igneel looks up in the air and roars while a volcano erupts in the background

Final cut to Team Natsu smiling while standing alongside their Pokemon.


Save File 2 - Welcome to Fairy Tail

Magic Council, Era

In the meeting room, 8 council members and the chairman are reviewing the fight and damage in Hargeon Town via magic projection.

"Those idiots from Fairy Tail had gone and done it again!" The first council member sighed. "This time, they've destroyed an entire port!"

"What is the matter with them?" The second council member asked.

"I'm actually quite fond of those dimwits and their laissez-faire attitudes." A blue haired man, who is known as Siegrain, admitted.

"They may behave like fools, but let's not forget that they have huge amounts of potential." A red haired man, who is known as Lance, agreed. "They're one of the few guilds in Fiore that knows how to treat their Pokemon with trust and love."

"Yes, they present quite the quandary." The third Councilman said.

"I think we should leave them be." Siegrain suggested. "After all, if it wasn't for those fools, think how boring this world will be."


Magnolia Town

Natsu, Ash, and Lucy are standing in front of a giant building with bright colors and a giant sign that reads [Fairy Tail] with two fairies on each side.

"Wow, so this is Fairy Tail." Ash said.

"Pikachu (This is awesome)."

*SLAM*

"WE MADE IT BACK ALIVE!" Natsu shouted after kicking the door wide open.

"Charmander/Munchlax (We're Home)!" Charmander and Munchlax cheered.

The entire guild hall looks at Natsu, Lucy, and Ash as they walk inside while the latter two gasp in awe at how many pokemon mages are in Fairy Tail.

"So I've heard you went all out in Hargeon, Natsu!" A buck-toothed man, known as Krov, chuckled. "How'd you go starting troub-" The buck-toothed man was interrupted after being kicked in the face by Natsu while his partner pokemon, Bibarel rushes over to him.

"Why did you do that!?" Lucy asked.

"Klefki Klef (That was so unnecessary)!"

"You lied about that Salamander, I'm gonna kick your butt!" Natsu roared.

"Don't get mad at me! I'm not the one to blame here!" The buck-toothed man shouted back. "We were just passing along a rumor we just heard!"

"Bibarel Bibarel Bibarel (It's your fault for running off like idiots)!" Bibarel shouted.

"IT WAS JUST A RUMOR!?" Natsu shouted.

"YOU WANNA FIGHT!? LET'S GO!"

Without any hesitation, the two mages and their pokemon engage each other in battle before the entire guild starts to fight, turning this into a big brawl.

"Wow, I didn't think it'd be this crazy." Ash chuckled nervously before smiling. "But I can't believe we're standing inside the Fairy Tail Guild Hall."

"It's amazing." Lucy agreed.

"So Natsu finally made it back, huh?" a black haired man hollered. This is Gray Fullbuster, a very talented Pokemon Mage who owns a Totodile and Snorunt, but he has a habit of taking off his clothes. "It's time to settle the score once and for all. Ready guys."

"Totodile (Ready)." Totodile snarled.

"Snorunt Snor (No holding back)."

"Whoa, a Totodile and Snorunt." Ash said as he took out his pokedex and points it at the two pokemon.

[Totodile - the Big Jaw Pokémon. Totodile has a habit of using its highly developed jaws to chomp on anything in sight, so Trainers beware.]

[Snorunt - Snorunt, the Snow Hat Pokémon. Snorunt primarily inhabits very snowy regions. It has long been said that any home visited by a Snorunt will be blessed with good fortune.]

"Gray, your clothes." A brown haired girl pointed out as Gray is only wearing his boxers. This is Cana Alberona, she's known as the heaviest drinker in Fairy Tail and her partner pokemon is Eevee.

"I don't have time for that, Cana!" Gray shouted.

"Eevee (Oh boy)..." Eevee sighed.

"This is why I don't date the men here. They have no class." Cana sighed before chugging down a barrel full of wine, much to the shock of Ash and Lucy.

"How much can she drink!?" Ash asked.

"She does have a cute Eevee." Lucy admitted with a smile before pointing her Pokedex at the Pokemon.

[Eevee - the Evolution Pokémon. Eevee is a unique Pokémon that can adapt to its environment by changing its form and abilities when evolving.]

"Come here and fight us Natsu!" Gray shouted.

"Not until you put some pants on first!" Natsu shouted back.

"It's only noon, and you boys are whining like spoiled babies!" A giant man with white haired said as he walks in alongside Machoke. This is Elfman, a muscular pokemon mage who believes that any problem can be solve with an iron fist.

He and Machoke flexes for a brief moment before letting out a huge howl.

"We're real men! Do you want us to prove it to you!?" Elman howled.

"MACHOKE (FEAR US)!" Machoke howled, prompting Ash to take out his Pokedex and points it at the Pokemon.

[Machoke - the Superpower Pokémon. With enough strength to lift a giant truck with one hand, Machoke are often used for extremely heavy work.]

"I can't believe he's encouraging them.." Lucy sighed while Natsu and Gray punched Elfman, sending him flying into a wall while Charmander, Munchlax, Totodile, and Snorunt send Machoke flying into the ceiling.

"Wow, that fast!?" Ash asked.

"What the heck is wrong with these people?" Lucy asked, irritated at the violent behavior going on.

"Klefki Klef Klef (There's not one sane person in this room)!"

"Hello! Are you two new here?" Ash and Lucy turns around to see a beautiful white haired girl, who is smiling at them with Roserade.

"It's Mirajane! In the flesh!" Lucy squealled.

"Roserade (Nice to meet you)." Roserade bowed

"Yeah, we are." Ash answered before looking down to see Roserade. "Wow, a Roserade! You got an awesome Pokemon!" He immediately took out his Pokedex and points it at Roserade.

[Roserade - the Bouquet Pokémon. Roserade uses its sweet aroma to attract prey then strikes with thorny whips to defeat it.]

"Thanks. Your Pikachu's very cute." Mirajane giggled, causing Pikachu to blush while laughing awkwardly.

"Um, don't you think we should stop them or something?" Lucy asked.

"It's always like this around here. I just leave them alone. Besides-" Mirajane and her Pokemon was suddenly on the ground after an unconscious Elfman and Machoke crashes into them. "It's kinda fun, don't you think?"

"Roserade (Not again)..." Roserade grunted before she and Mirajane became unconscious, causing Lucy to freak out.

"Don't die Mirajane!"

"Whoa!" Ash tumbles after Gray crashed into him while Natsu was laughing and twirling Gray's boxers in his hand.

"Give me back my underwear you jerk!" Gray growled before turning to Lucy, who is shielding her eyes and blushing like crazy. "Excuse me miss, but can I please borrow your underwear?"

"As if!" Lucy shouted as the entire guild hall continues to go crazy while Cana and Eevee look irritated.

"So loud… So much for having a drink to relax…" She sighed before taking out a magic card. "That's enough you guys, I suggest you knock if off!"

"Eevee Eevee Eevee (If you don't stop, then we'll make you stop)!" Eevee glows for a brief moment before creating six red-glowing cards of energy in the form of a ring appear in front of its body.

"Oh yeah!? Says who!?" Gray shouted as he gets in a stance while creating ice.

"Totodile (Don't tell us what to do)!" Totodile snarled as his fangs are now covered in ice.

"Snorunt (You guys can be such a nuisance)." Snorunt took a deep breath to prepare to fire an Icy Wind.

Elfman shouts before transforming his arm into stone while Machoke glows red for a brief moment before his fist glows with white energy.

"If you guys won't stop, then I guess I'll have to make you stop." Finally annoyed after getting hurt, Ash creates an aura sphere in his hand.

"Pika (Let's end this)!" Pikachu begins to create an electro ball with his tail.

Natsu and Charmander engulfed their fists in flames and gets in a battle stance.

"We're ready for ya!" Natsu shouted.

"Char Charmander (Prepare yourselves)!" Charmander roared.

"Do they always fight like this?" Lucy asked in fear.

"Munchlax (Every time)." Munchlax nodded.

"Klefki Klefki (Why aren't you worried)!?" Klefki panicked.

The entire guild hall shook after a gigantic shadowy figure steps inside the guild hall, glaring at everyone around him. "WILL YOU FOOLS STOP BICKERING LIKE CHILDREN!?"

"WHOA, HE'S HUGE!" Ash shouted in fear as everyone in the guild stops fighting.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were still here, Master." Mirajane said

"Did you say master!?" Lucy gasped.

"Man, talk about a bunch of babies!" Natsu laughed. "Looks like we won this time-" He and Charmander were suddenly squished by the giant's feet.

The giant then changes his glare to Lucy and Ash. "Well, it seems we got new recruits." He said before shrinking down to size, revealing to be a tiny old man. "Nice to meet you."

"He's tiny! Is he really in charge here!?" Lucy asked in disbelief.

"Of course he is." Mirajane giggled. "This is Fairy Tail's guild master, Makarov."

"Whoa, his magic is so awesome!" Ash said with stars in his eyes, making Lucy feel awkward.

"Klefki (Oh boy)..." Klefki sighed while Makarov jumps high up in the air before landing comically on railing on the second floor. Everyone in the guild looked up at their master, waiting to hear what he has to say.

"You gone and done it again, you bunch of clods!" Makarov scolded while holding up a bunch of papers in his hand. "Just take a look at how much paperwork the Magic Council sent me this time! This is biggest pile of complaints yet! Have you all lost your minds!? All you kids are good for is getting the higher ups mad at me!" The entire guild starts to feel a little guilty after hearing their master's words.

"Klefki (He's scary)..." Klefki trembled.

"Pika Pikachu (I don't wanna get on his bad side)..." Pikachu sighed.

"However…" Makarov smirked as he sets the entire paperwork on fire, burning it to ashes. "I say the heck with the Magic Council!" He then tosses the fire up the air, allowing Natsu to eat it completely.

"Huh?" Both Ash and Lucy looked at the guild master with confusion, but with a hint of awe.

"Now listen up." Makarov spoke up. "Any power that surpasses reasons still comes to reason, right? Magic isn't some kind of miraculous power, it is a talent that only works when the flow of energy inside you and your pokemon and the flow of the natural world are in perfect synchronization. To perform magic, you and your pokemon must have a strong mind, the ability to focus, and to become one within each other's hearts. It should take over your being and come pouring out of your souls. If all we do is worry about following rules, then our magic and bonds will never progress. Don't let those blowhards on the Magic Council scare you, follow the path you and your pokemon believe in! Because that's what makes the Fairy Tail Guild number one!"

Makarov finish his lecture by holding up his thumb and index finger in the air, causing the entire guild to mirror their master with a loud cheer.

"Wow, Fairy Tail is so amazing.." Ash cheered.

"Pikachu (Hooray)!" Pikachu cheered.


Few minutes later

Once everyone settles down and cleans up the mess they made, Ash took off his left glove and held his hand up, allowing Mirajane to place a stamp on the back of his hand before removing the stamp, revealing a yellow fairy tail symbol on the back of his left hand. Mirajane does the same process for Lucy, only her fairy tail symbol is pink and on the back of her right hand.

"There you go, you two are now members of Fairy Tail." Mirajane said.

"Thanks Mira." Ash said before showing it to Pikachu. "Isn't this great?"

"Pikachu (This is the best day of our life)!" Pikachu said.

"Hey Natsu, look!" Lucy walks up to the fire dragon slayer, who is looking at the request board. "I'm finally a member of Fairy Tail!"

"That's good. Welcome to the guild, Looney." Natsu said, irritating the blonde girl.

"The name's Lucy!"

"Klefki Klef (Get it right)!"

"Hey, we should let Professor Oak and Mom know about this." Ash told Pikachu.

"Pika Pika (I agree)." Pikachu nodded while a young boy and a Cyndaquil make their way to Makarov.

"What? My dad isn't back yet?"

"I'm starting to get annoyed, Romeo." Makarov sighed. "Your dad is a Pokemon Mage, so please have faith and wait patiently."

"He told me he'd return in three days." Romeo whimpered. "It's been a week."

"Didn't he take the Mt. Hakobe job?"

"Yes, he did!" Romeo shouted. "So why won't someone go look for him!?"

"Listen kid, your dad's a pokemon mage." Makarov scolded. "And like every other pokemon mage, he can handle himself. Go home, have some cookies and wait."

"CYNDAQUIL (YOU JERK)!" Cyndaquil fires a barrage of small flames at Makarov before Romeo punches him in the face. The two runs out of the guild while crying.

"That's rough…" Lucy said, feeling sorry for the kid.

"I know it sounds like the master doesn't care, but he's worried as well." Mirajane pointed out while arranging the bottles at the bar.

"I know how you feel kid…" Ash said under his breath before looking over to Natsu, who is filled with anger.

"Charmander, Munchlax. Let's go." With a simple nod, the fire dragon slayer and his pokemon starts making their way to the door.

"Hey, where are you going?" Nab asked.

"Probably to Mt. Hakobe to save Macao." Krov answered.

"But that's gonna hurt his pride." Nab said.

"Remember Nab, we can't choose another's path." Makarov pointed out. "Just leave him be."

"Why did Natsu get so upset?" Lucy asked.

"He probably sees himself in Romeo." Mirajane answered, catching Lucy and Ash's attention.

"What do you mean?" Ash asked.

"Just because we're members of Fairy Tail, that doesn't mean we don't have personal issues. We all have are fair share of suffering and lost." Mirajane said. "Seven years ago, Igneel disappeared, leaving Natsu behind."

"No way…" Ash gasped before gritting his teeth and rushes out of the guild hall to catch up to Natsu.

"Hey wait!" Lucy called out before following him and Natsu.

"Hm?" Natsu looks back to see Ash and Lucy running after him. "Don't try and stop me."

"We're not stopping you." Ash said.

"Huh?"

"We're coming with you." Lucy added, causing Natsu to look at the two before flashing a grin.

The three took off to find Macao, unaware of a certain frog pokemon following them quietly.


Mt. Hakobe

"Why is it so cold!? I know it's a mountain, but it's summer! There's something not right about this blizzard!" Lucy whined. "If only I can resist the cold like you Klefki.."

"Klefki (I hope we'll be there soon)..."

"That's what you get for wearing light clothing." Natsu said.

"How come you're not freezing?" Ash asked. He's relieved that he kept wearing his cloak, giving him some protection from the cold.

"I'm dragon slayer, so the cold doesn't bother me."

"Would you hand over that blanket!?" Lucy whined.

"Klefki Klefki (You're gonna cause an avalanche, Lucy)." Klefki sighed.

"Why don't you return your pokemon back into your pokeballs?" Natsu asked.

"Pikachu doesn't like being in his pokeball." Ash answered. "So I let him travel outside of his pokeball with me."

"Pika Pika (It makes our bond stronger)." Pikachu added.

"So what kind of crazy job would force Macao to come all the way out here?" Lucy asked, wearing Natsu's blanket.

"You should've asked that before we came here." Natsu sighed. "He went to slay a Vulcan."

"A Vulcan?" Ash asked. "I've heard about them. They're really big monsters that are dangerous."

"Ok, I want to go back to the guild!" Lucy shouted in fear.

"Go right ahead." Natsu said as he continues to walk.

"Hey, wait up!" Ash said as he catches up to Natsu. "Let me help. I can use my magic to have a better view."

"Really? That's so awesome! I never thought Aura magic can do that." Natsu said with excitement.

Ash gave the dragon slayer a nod before closing his eyes, concentrating and opens his eyes, which are now glowing blue. He does a quick scan of the area they're in before gasping after picking up an aura. "Head's up, we got company!"

Natsu and Ash jumps back as a Vulcan pops out of nowhere and slams his fists onto the ground.

"Whoa, a Vulcan!" Ash gasped.

"Pika (A big one too)!" Pikachu gasped.

"Hey you!" Natsu shouted, before noticing that the Vulcan is suddenly gone.

"Where did it go?" Ash asked.

"A human woman!" The Vulcan said as he looks at Lucy, who was screaming in terror.

"Lucy!" Ash gasped. "Pikachu, thunderbolt!"

"PIKACHU!" Pikachu jumps up in the air and fires a thunderbolt at the Vulcan, which did little to no damage to the creature.

"Damn, not only he can talk, but he's a tough one." Natsu growled before taking out two pokeballs. "Charmander, Munchlax! Get that monkey!"

Charmander and Munchlax pops out of their pokeballs and prepares to attack the Vulcan, only for it to jump up in the air with Lucy in his arms.

"Hey put me down!" Lucy shouted while struggling get out. The Vulcan ignores this and walks away. "Klefki, Fairy Wind!"

"Klefki!" Klefki creates a gust of fairy wind at the Vulcan, only to be unfazed by the attack and leaves.

"After it!" Ash shouted as he, Natsu, and their pokemon are chasing after the Vulcan, but stops once he sees a mysterious figure leaping forward. "It's you…"

"What the? It followed us?" Natsu asked.


Cavern

The Vulcan is dancing around Lucy with hearts flying into the air while the blonde girl is creeped out by his behavior. "A woman!" He howled as smoke comes out of his nose and has his hands ready to grab Lucy.

"Get away from me!" Lucy screamed in horror.

The Vulcan was suddenly hit in the back by an aura sphere, causing him to howl in anger before turning around to see Ash, Pikachu, and Klefki..

"Ash!" Lucy said before sighing in relief.

"Are you okay Lucy?" Ash asked.

"I'm fine. Thanks." Lucy said.

"Monkey!" Natsu roared as he and his pokemon charges at the Vulcan, only for the three to slip on the icy floor, causing them to slide across the cavern before crashing into a wall.

"Lame…" Lucy sighed.

"Klefki Klef Klef (Why can't they do a regular entrance)?" Klefki sighed.

"Hey, where's Macao!?" Ash shouted, confusing the Vulcan.

"You understand us, right? We're asking about Macao, a human man." Natsu said as he's upside down.

"Man?" The Vulcan asked.

"That's right! Where are you hiding him!?" Natsu asked.

"He's already decided that the monkey's hiding him?" Lucy asked as she's behind the two trainers while the Vulcan is pointing in a certain direction.

"Hey, I think he's gonna show us!" Natsu cheered as he run towards a hole.

"Natsu, wait!" Ash called out.

"Macao!" Natsu called out before he was suddenly pushed out of the hole by the Vulcan, causing him to fall all the way down the mountain. "MONKEY!"

"Natsu!" Lucy cried out.

"No like man, me like woman!" Vulcan howled.

"Ash, can you sense Natsu's aura?" Lucy asked as Ash did a quick scan.

"I'm having a hard time picking it up." Ash answered before the two look back to see the Vulcan chanting woman. "Ok, this Vulcan is annoying me.. Charmander, Munclax, can you help us?"

"Mander (Sure thing)." Charmander nodded.

"Munch (Let's do this)!" Munchlax patted his belly with pride.

"My woman!" The Vulcan howled as he leaps towards Ash and Lucy.

"I'll help you weaken it. Klefki, Metal Sound!" Lucy commanded.

"Klefki!" Klefki's voice became echoey and begins to vibrate, causing a loud ringing sound to be released.

"Me ears! Me ears!" The Vulcan howled in pain while covering his ears.

Pikachu, Munchlax, and Charmander began to shout in pain before covering their ears.

"Fairy Wind!" Lucy commanded before Klefki unleashed a fairy wind attack against the Vulcan, dealing damage.

"Wow, that's great!" Ash said.

"Metal Sound is really useful." Lucy winked.

"Ok, it's my turn. Pikachu, Thunderbolt! Charmander, Flamethrower!" Ash commanded, causing the two Pokemon to jump in the air and fire their attacks at the Vulcan.

"Munchlax, use Bite!" Lucy commanded.

Munchlax jumps forward and prepares to bit the Vulcan's arm, only for the latter to dodge all three of the attacks.

"Whoa, he's fast!" Lucy shouted.

"Look out!" Ash said as he see the Vulcan leaping towards him and Lucy. "Aura Barrier-!"

Much to their surprise, the Vulcan was kicked in the face by Natsu, causing him to tumble before crashing.

"Natsu!?" Ash asked.

"How are you able to survive out there?" Lucy asked, causing Natsu to grin.

"Froakie came to save me." The two trainers look at the dragon slayer in confusion before looking down to see Froakie. "Thanks little guy."

"Froa (No problem)." Froakie croaked.

"Wait, aren't you the same Froakie from Hargeon Town? And you were following us this whole time?" Ash asked, causing Froakie to nod.

"My woman!" The Vulcan was now suddenly behind Natsu and slams a fist downward, only for Natsu to block it with ease.

"Listen up, I considered everyone in the Fairy Tail guild my friend!" Natsu shouted before spartan kicking the Vulcan in the gut, sending him flying backwards. "Whenever it's gramps, Mira, or those annoying jerks, Gray and Elfman." The Vulcan starts charging towards Natsu as he starts to charge up. "Lucy, Ash, and our pokemon too.. They're all my friends."

Lucy can't help but slightly blush at Natsu's words as he ignite his feet on fire before kicking the Vulcan as two his Pokemon used Fire Punch to help.

"That's why I'm not leaving here without Macao!"

The Vulcan got angry and slams his fist onto the ground, creating a shockwave and sending icicles flying towards Natsu, Lucy, and Ash.

Natsu held his arms up in a cross, blocking the attack. "That won't work against fire!"

"Klefki, Protect!" Lucy commanded as Klefki created a barrier to block the Vulcan's attack.

"Quick Attack!" Ash commanded as Pikachu starts running fast while sidestepping to dodge the icicles.

"Froakie!" Froakie starts hopping fast while dodging the icicles before multiple froakies appears.

"Whoa, that's double team!" Ash said in awe as the multiple Froakies are now running around the Vulcan, confusing the monster.

"Frogs… Me not like Frogs!" The Vulcan howled and stomps on the ground, creating a mini earthquake, only for the Froakies to start hopping on the debris before throwing frubbles at the Vulcan. "Eh?" The Vulcan tries flailing to remove the frubbles, only for them to remain stuck.

"Pika!"

"Lax!"

The two Pokemon ram into the Vulcan's gut, making the monster groan in pain.

"Let me help. Fairy Wind!" lucy commanded.

"Klefki!" Klefki unleashes fairy wind against the Vulcan, dealing damage to the monster.

"Ash, your turn!" Lucy shouted.

"You got it. Froakie, use Water Pulse!" Ash commanded.

"Froakie!" Froakie creates a water pulse before flinging it towards the Vulcan.

"Aura Wave!" Ash crosses his arms before spreading them out, sending a wave of Aura towards the Vulcan, causing the monster to get damaged by the two attacks. "Finish him off, Natsu!"

"Eat this! Charmander, Fire Punch!" Natsu commanded as he charges towards the Vulcan. "Fire Dragon Iron Fist!"

"Charmander!" Charmander engulfed his fist into flames before he and Natsu punches the Vulcan, sending it flying into the wall and knocking it out.

"We did it!" Ash cheered.

"Yeah, but isn't this monkey suppose to tell us where Macao is?" Lucy asked.

"Oh, forgot about that." Natsu chuckled nervously while placing a hand behind his head.

The three looks at the Vulcan and gasp in shock once they see the monster glowing as a magic circle appears. The monster begins the shrink before shooting out a blast of energy, forcing the pokemon mages to shield their eyes from the light.

"What in the heck was that?" Natsu asked before gasping once he sees… "Macao!?"

"Are you telling me that big, perverted monkey was actually your friend!?" Lucy asked in disbelief.

"That's it..! He was taken over by that Vulcan!" Ash said. "Vulcan's are capable of using Take Over Magic."

The group quickly takes out Natsu's blanket and place Macao on it before they start treating his injuries.

"It looks like he put up a good fight before he was taken over." Ash said, noticing his injuries.

"Macao! Don't you die on me! Romeo's waiting for you! Open your eyes!" Natsu shouted.

Macao begins to slowly open his eyes before noticing Natsu, Lucy, Ash, and their pokemon. "Natsu…" He said weakly.

"You're okay!" Natsu yelled in joy while Ash and Lucy smiled in relief.

"I'm so pathetic.. I've defeated 19 of those brutes…" Macao admitted. "But I got taken over by the 20th one after it defeated my Pokemon… I'm so angry right now… I'm embarrassed to show my face to Romeo like this…"

"Don't be like that. You defeated 19 of those things." Ash reassured as Natsu held a hand out for Macao before helping him back up.

"Let's go home, Romeo's waiting for you." Natsu grinned, causing Macao to return the grin back.

"They're amazing… I can't even compare myself to them…" Lucy smiled.

"Don't say that about yourself Lucy, you and Klefki did great." Ash said with a thumbs up and a grin, causing Lucy to look at the aura wizard in awe before smiling back.


Magnolia

Romeo and Cyndaquil are currently sitting on the flight of stairs with sad looks on their faces, remembering how the boys in town were talking bad about Fairy Tail, causing Romeo's Dad to take a job in order to help his son from the bullying.

"Quil…" Cyndaquil climbs onto Romeo's shoulder and nuzzles his cheek to try and make him stop crying.

"Romeo!" Said person looks back up and turns around to see Natsu, Lucy, Ash, and Macao walking towards the boy.

"DAD!" Without hesitation, Romeo tackled his father into a hug, causing Macao to fall on his back while Romeo cries in joy. "YOU CAME BACK! I'M SO SORRY DAD!"

"Cyndaquil (You had us worried sick)!" Cyndaquil cried.

"No, I'm sorry for making you worry." Macao apologized as he hugs his son.

"I can handle it. I'm a wizard." Romeo cried. "R-Right Cyndaquil?"

"Cynda Cyndaquil (That's right)." Cyndaquil nodded.

"Next time those bullies pick on you, I want you tell them this." Macao looks at his son with a smirk. "Can your old man defeat 19 monsters all by himself? Because mine can."

Romeo looks at his father in awe before grinning. He got up and turns around before shouting- "Natsu! Thanks for your help!"

"No problem kiddo!" Natsu said with a simple wave.

"Ash, Lucy, thanks for helping him bring my daddy back to me!" Romeo shouted.

Lucy turns around with a blush on her faces as she giggles and waves while Ash chuckles and waves with a toothy grin.

"So, you guys ready to head back to Fairy Tail?" Natsu asked.

"You bet." Ash said before the three suddenly stops once they see Froakie in front of them. "Froakie?"

"Why is he following us?" Lucy asked.

Froakie nudged his nose against a pokeball while looking at Ash before croaking.

"Uhh." Ash looked at the frog pokemon in confusion.

"Pika (What is)..?" Pikachu tilt his head in confusion.

"Well would you look at that. I think Froakie takes a liking to you Ash." Lucy said.

"Yeah, it looks like he wants to go with us." Natsu grinned.

"Really?" Ash looks at Froakie in awe before grabbing the pokeball. "Do you want to come with us Froakie?"

"Froakie (That's right)!" Froakie jumps up and taps on the pokeball, allowing him to enter the pokeball as it shook three times before it makes a clicking sound.

Ash chuckles with a smile before posing while holding Froakie's pokeball high up in the air. "Alright! I just caught a Froakie!"

"Pikachu (Yahoo)!" Pikachu cheered.

"Come on, let's show the guild our new friend." Natsu said as he starts to run towards the Guild Hall.

"Hey, no fair! You got a head start!" Ash laughed as he runs as well.

Lucy looks at the boys in confusion before laughing and catches up them with a smile. Both Ash and Lucy may be new to the guild, but they already love it.
