Hello! Pokéshipping Day today! I wanted to upload this earlier but was waiting for it to be beta read but she hasn't been online for ages! (WAAA PokestarTheZylar!) So here it is! This chapter is perfect for today as you'll see! Sorry I put seven years, I know it's actually been 11, but for the sake of this story, it's 7. Pokémon world time is slower than ours anyway!
An Unexpected Visitor
A few weeks into arriving at Kalos…
"All right, Pangoro, buddy! Sucker punch!" Ash commanded with false enthusiasm and watched as his huge Fighting Panda bear gave out a fierce punch to a little red hamster before it could charge up its Thundershock attack.
At that moment Ash felt something snap in his head. A red mist descended upon his vision. He had finally grasped what this day was and signified which had been nagging in the back of his mind all day long. Ash looked up at his opponent with an intimidating fiery rage burning in his normally warm brown eyes; his cap casting his face in shadow to give a leer causing her to falter. Today of all days was not a good day for some puny Trainer to challenge him. He no longer cared if it was a prearranged battle or if she was a genuine Trainer unlucky enough to have crossed paths with him; he wanted to let it all out.
"Okay! Whilst it's recovering, I want you to give it a taste of your Hammer Arm!" Ash continued in a harsh tone - his face an indifferent expression.
Pangoro growled in response and leapt into the air, both its arms raised up above its head, and proceeded to smash its two basketball sized fists on the unfortunate Chespin with a determined roar of "Go-RO!"
The bear slowly got back on his feet leaving the effects of its devastating signature attack visible. Though the hamster was resistant to both attacks, the sheer power of Pangoro was too much and it had fainted in a crater the shape of its little body. Ash's opponent shakily held up her Pokéball and recalled her Pokémon; her facial expression a mixture of horror and dismay at the brutal efficiency and swiftness Ash had unleashed to bring the battle to an abrupt close.
Ash regarded his cruel handiwork with a sneer. Why should he care? Today was the seventh anniversary. Seven was supposed to be a lucky number. He wasn't feeling lucky at all, all his friends were gone a long time ago to be replaced again by more idiots soon. Another few years putting up with another little kid and an annoying girl that had followed him all around primary school? He really should –
"Aaaaah!" he yelled as a bolt of electricity coursed through his twenty-three year old body. "Pikachu, what the hell?"
"PIKA-PIKACHU! PI CHA!" Pikachu retorted giving his friend a glare.
"First of all, don't swear. Secondly, do you realise what today is?" Ash shot back.
"Chu?" Pikachu questioned, his fury dissolving a little to be replaced with a hint of curiosity.
"It's the day Misty was tricked into leaving us back in Viridian City!" Ash cried throwing his hands into the air to emphasize his point. Ash, not bothering to see Pikachu's reaction, trudged in the direction of the tower in Lumiose City, his head down.
"C'mon, Pikachu. It's time for us to get 'kicked out' of the Prism Tower." Ash mumbled suddenly ashamed at his loss of temper at the rookie trainer. After all, it wasn't her who was responsible for Misty's departure from his life.
In the distance, two blonde figures stared petrified at the scene of Ash stomping off to their home with Pikachu bounding after him and the crying girl running past them: their wide blue eyes shining with undisguised fear like a pair of Stantler caught in the headlights of an approaching car.
"He's scary, Clemont! They told us that he was a nice guy!" The younger of the two whimpered to her older brother.
"Yes, I know, sweetie. They paid us good money and we need it if we're to keep the gym running. Besides I think it's just for show, Bonnie. I'm sure he's really a big cuddly Teddiursa!" Clemont replied in an attempt to comfort his distraught sibling but however seemed to be trying to convince himself that it was the case.
Bonnie detected the false cheeriness in her brother's tone and buried her head in his shirt imagining the crazy guy, that they were to spend the next few years with, to be a teddy bear sucking its thumb.
The sparkling new reception in the tower was pretty impressive according to Ash causing his furious stride and brooding mind to waver as he looked around at the warm comfortable room. His frown came instantly back when he noticed a determined looking man marching briskly towards him.
"Sir, we wish to speak to you about what happened earlier. It gives us bad publicity and thank god it wasn't live," the man spoke laying a hand on Ash's shoulder. "We do not tolerate such –"
"Get off me!" Ash snarled, whipping around to give the man a harsh scowl whilst roughly shrugging the intruding hand off. The man gawped at the hostile figure stomping off in the wrong direction and discreetly spoke a few words into his radio.
"Aww crap!" Ash grumbled after walking, by accident, into a restaurant somewhere on the third level. He then backtracked and discovered himself opening the door to the men's toilets a few moments later.
"Where were we supposed to go again?" Ash asked a very disgruntled Pikachu.
"PIKA!" Pikachu retorted, giving his friend a good zapping then continued to point his paw back to the direction of the reception.
"Jesus, Pikachu! There was no need for that especially with the retard insults!" Ash howled after the annoyed yellow mouse. Ash shook his head in a vain attempt to let his crackling hair down and sprinted after his little friend.
"Huh," Ash muttered to himself, "Trust a Pokémon to have a better knowledge of where we need to be."
Once the two had found their way back to the reception, Ash asked cautiously, "Alright Pikachu, you're sure it's the right door? We're supposed to go to a room with electricity everywhere," Ash recoiled at Pikachu's 'Are you an idiot?' hard gaze.
"Okay, okay," Ash said hurriedly, not wanting another electric shock, "I'm just as frustrated as you are, buddy. I don't want another threat of another two months without seeing Mum and Mimey 'cause we're late either, you know."
At that moment, a slender stressed-out young woman brushed past Ash reaching for the door handle.
"Sorry, mister but I'm really late for somebody. I don't want to miss him," she apologized hurriedly in a sing-song voice whilst allowing him briefly to see her worried face.
Ash made no reply. He stared at her; his eyes agog and jaw agape in wonderment and surprise. The woman frowned back at his strange reaction and flinched as the weird man roughly grabbed her wrist.
"M-misty… Is-is it re-really you?" Ash stammered.
Yeah so as you can see, they meet again but a bit unexpectedly! WOOO! To be honest, I prefer drawing but I'm beginning to enjoy writing. I'm planning of writing another AAML story but focusing just on Misty.
I guess most of you are fans of Ash's new travelling companions. Clemont looks awesome but I just found Bonnie really annoying straight away lol. (That's my opinion).
I also am a bit wary of Serena. She seems cool but I didn't like the way Nintendo focused on her A LOT... Plus I saw some screenshots of her giving Ash a handkerchief and them holding hands. I think Nintendo are trying to delete Misty completely and replace her with Serena for Ash's affections :/ but hey I might be wrong! Review or PM to tell me what you think about all of this!
Oh guess you're wondering why he has a Pangoro. Let's say he got it as a present from... uh... Bruno for consistent well placed ranks in the Pokémon leagues! I dunno lol. Pangoro looks cool!
