ash and Lillie

Lillie told her mom that she loved ash Lusamine smiled widely. 'So she indeed liked him. This just made my plan easier!' She then tells her daughter her plan. Her BIG plan.

"Lillie, what do you say if I want you to marry Ash one day?"

Oma...

That escalated quickly...

Lillie was shocked. She was speechless. Her jaws dropped, hit the floor. Her eyes are wide like a plate.

Lillie's POV

'Okay... let me load all of this... My mother, just tells me, that she wants me, to marry Ash?! What.the.heck...' i thought to myself.

'Well, that is good news, isn't it? So why am I surprised? I should be happy right?! Yay!' I snapped out of my thought and look at my mother with my biggest smile.

"So does that mean-"

"Yes, you can. And don't worry, I'll convince Gladion so he will agree." Now that she mention it. What will Gladion say? I hope he will agree though...

"So, Ash going to leave to Kanto?"

"Yes, Mother..." I replied sadly.

"How about you go with him when he leaves? You can use our jet to go to Kanto." My head quickly got up. "I can go with him?!" I asked excitedly. My mother nodding with a smile.

"Thank you, Mother!" I tackled my mother and she smiled at me.

"Anything for my daughter's happiness." She replied softly. "Now go to sleep okay? It's 10:21 midnight."

"Okay, Mother," I replied. She walks to the door and open it, walk out, then closes the door.

I am so happy now. My mother agrees me going out with Ash. Now I just need to confess my feeling to him. I hope he will accept me. I turn off the light and go to sleep.

In Lillie's dream

"Ash, you must stop trying to become Pokemon Master! You failed at every single league, and you almost made us killed on your stupid journey!!!" Said a redhead girl.

"But I won the Orange Island league!!! and you all are the one who begging on my feet to join me on my journey!!!" Ash countered.

"And that's not an official league!!!" Said a brunette haired girl with a red bandanna around her hair.

"You always blew up my invention!!!" Yelled a blonde boy with glasses.

"HEY! IT'S YOUR FAULT THAT YOUR INVENTION ALWAYS BLEW UP!!! YOUR INVENTION ALWAYS BLEW UP WAY BEFORE YOU MEET ASH!!!" Countered a 10 years old blonde girl.

"HEY!!! WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ON BONNIE?!!!" Yelled the blonde boy.

"I'm on Ash's side! I don't care what you said, but I will never leave Ash's side!" The blonde young girl now known as Bonnie answered. Clemont becomes furious at his sister.

"Count me in!!" yelled a 10 years old boy with a glass.

"NOT YOU TOO MAX!!!" The brunette girl yelled at the boy known as Max. "I'll never betray him! He's like a brother to me!" Answered Max. May become very angry at her brother.

"Dawn! Why didn't you say anything?!" Asked, or demanded May. Dawn seems to hesitate, but she answered anyway.

"Because I can't betray him. He's like a brother to me. He always helps me when I need it. And because of that, I won't betray him!"

"He's nothing but a loser!!" This time the boy with a mega ring on his wrist yelled.

"Oh, I'm a loser?! I'M A LOSER?!??!?! Did you all forget if it's not because me, you will never become who you all are today Ash countered again. The traitors were speechless, don't know how to counter that. (A/N: I used the 'Counter' word a lot didn't I? XD) 4

"GAH!!!" I yelled awake. 'It's just a dream...' I thought. 'But it feels so real... could it be a warning? If it is, what should I do?' I look at the clock, and it's from 06:30 AM.

Wait... 06:30?!?! Oh no! I overslept! I quickly go shower and put my regular clothing, and quickly go down for breakfast.

---Meanwhile in Kanto---

"So, do we all agree with the plan?" Asked a brown-haired man.

"Yes." Answered a girl with red hair.

"But what if he escaping when we confronting him?" Asked a girl with a brunette haired girl.

"Simple, if he does, we chase him down with our flying pokemon. If he still resists, we attack him."

"Good back up plan. Said a green haired male.

"Heh. I can't wait to meet you... Ashura..." Said a boy. He has a black mega ring on his wrist. He also held a girl's hand.

Behind them, there is 4 person. Each having a sad face, knowing they can't do anything to stop them.

AT THE DINNING ROOM---

Lillie's POV

At the dinning room, i saw my mother already there. She saw me and smile.

"Good morning Lillie!" She greet me with happy tone. I smiled at her and greet back "Good morning Mother." I greet back. "Where's Gladion?" I asked. 1

"Good morning Mother. Good morning Lillie" Gladion greet us. I smiled and greet him. "Good morning Brother."

"Good morning Gladion!" My mother greet him with her happy tone again. Then my mother whispering at me. "I already told him about you going out with Ash last night."

"What did he said?" I asked her.

She smirk,then whispering again. "You'll have to find out yourself!" My mother said then she giggled.

Now I'm nervous. My brother can be overprotective sometimes, and I don't like it. Our butler cams with some food.

After breakfast, her brother called her.

"Lillie, I want to talk about something. Follow me." I do as he told me. I followed him to the backyard of our house.

"What is it, Brother?" I asked. But I think I knew the answer for my question.

"I want you to answer my questions honestly first." I nodded my head. Now I'm getting more nervous than before. "Is it true that you liked Ash?" Okay,now I'm sweating really hard.

I nodded my head again "Yes, that is true Brother." Then I heard my brother sighing.

"Very well. You can go out with Ash." I stood on where I'm standing. I froze in place. Trying to proceed with what my brother told me.

"R-r-really?!" I stuttered. My brother nodding and smiling. meaning he agreed. I smiled and hugged him.

"Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!" I repeatedly saying thank you. My brother hug me back.

"But remember,if he hurts you, then he wouldn't leave this region with one piece. Tell him that." Gladion said in a warning tone. i sweatdrop and nod my head nervously "but of course,you wouldn't tell him that. I'll do it myself."

"BROTHER!!!" I yelled. "ASH WOULD NEVER DO THAT!!!" 3

"Okay,okay. I know he'll never do that. But i just want to make sure he'll never do that." I sighed. Here he goes again. In his overprotective mode.

"Fiiinnee," I said. We go back inside and i found my mom.

"Isn't Ash leaving today?" My mom asked.

"Today? Wait, how did you know he's leaving today?" I asked. "Didn't you told me after dinner yesterday?" My mom asks back. My brother then stared at me with a confused look.

Wait.....

'TODAY?! ARCEUS I FORGOT!!!!' I mentally yelled.

"Earth to Lillie?" My brother waving his hand in front of me. "What are you waiting for? Go quickly before he leaves!" My brother told me. I nod my head.

I quickly call Mallow, Lana, Kiawe, and Sophocles and inform them about Ash leaving today.

"WHAT?!" They yelled in unison. I must close my ears so they don't deaf due how loud they yelling, and I mean very loud. "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US YESTERDAY?!"

"Look I forgot okay?! Why don't we just go to Prof. Kukui's lab and hopefully he's still there!" I end the call and quickly go to Prof. Kukui's lab.

'Ash, please stay there...'

---At Prof.Kukui's Lab---

Ash's POV

"Piikaaaaaa...

CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!" 3

"GAH!!!" I yelled while the jump from the bed. I noticed Pikachu's red cheek is sparking, charging another Thunderbolt.

"OKAY OKAY! I'M UP I'M UP!" I quickly yelled. Pikachu sighed. Why must he often do this anyway?

"Good morning Pikachu." I greet sarcastically. He rolled his eyes. I go to the bathroom to take shower, then go to the dinning room with Pikachu. I found Prof. Kukui and Prof. Burnet are there.

"Good Morning Ash!" They both greet me. "Good Morning Prof. Kukui! Good Morning Prof. Burnet!" I greet back. I grab a ketchup from a cabinet and throw it at Pikachu who catch it without a problem. He then open the bottle then... well.... you can guess how he'll react when he saw or have a ketchup bottle on his hands. I eat my breakfast then prepare my stuff to go back to Kanto today.

"Let me help you Ash" Prof.Kukui offered. "Okay. Thanks, Professor." I thanked him. the preparation was not too long actually. By the time we finished, it's already 9:13 AM.

After that, I go to training with my pokemon. And of course, Rowlett is asleep so he didn't join the training.

When I was just about to start training with my pokemon, there's a knock on the front door. I go to the door and open it. When i open the door,i saw my friends are standing there. They all have a sad face. I wonder why..?

"ASH!!!" Lillie first tackled me and hugging my very hard.

"why did you not tell us you were leaving today Kiawe, Mallow, Sophocles, and Lana yelled.

"I kinda forgot"I sheepishly rubbing my head. Then I explain them everything.

"So you're leaving today?" Sophocles asked. I nod my head. They dropped their head, and their face is sad.

"Look, i'll be back again when the Alola League is installed alright? Besides, Prof. Kukui said that the Alola League is almost done installed." I told them. "I promise when Prof. Kukui told me that the Alola League is installed, i'll quickly go back here the day he inform me."

"You promise?" Kiawe asked. I smiled.

"Yes,i promise." Then we do a group hug. But Lillie hug me longer than others.

Silence takes over the room... suddently Lana broke the silence with her idea.

"Hey,how about we join Ash to Kanto?"

"Yeah that's a great idea! I want to see your electric types!" Sophocles then yelled.

"Count me in! I want to see your grass type too!" Said Mallow.

"Me too i want to see your fire type pokemons!" Kiawe agreed.

"That's actually a great idea Lana!" Lillie said. "So can we join you Ash?"

"Well yeah of course you can! The more the merrier!" I said.

"How about we use Aether Jet to go to Kanto? We can go there quickly with it." Lillie said.

"If you're okay with it." I said.

"I wish we could go with you..." Prof. Burnet said sadly.

"Hey,don't be sad Professor. I'll be back here when the Alola League is instaled." I confronting her. She then look at Lillie and whispering at her. After that,Lillie's face goes red. Why? 

"Well then,let's go to the airport!" Prof. Kukui said. We go to Lillie's limo and go to the airport.

---At the airport---

Lillie's POV

I called Hobbes to bring a jet to the airport where we are,then I told Ash and others.

"I already called Hobbes to bring a jet here. It will takes a few minutes from Aether Foundation to reach the airport."

"I don't mind how long it takes for it to come here," Ash said.

Mallow then pulled me beside her and Lana. "SO! When are you gonna confess your love to him? Hmmm?"

My face quickly went red like a tomato but deeper red. "C-could you please stop doing this?!"

They both said "NOPE!" In unison. I sighed knowing there's no way to stop them, for now.

The jet arrives and Hobbes then came from the jet.

"Hello Ms. Lillie, Hello everyone." He said. We greet him and we get into the plane.

"So, where are we going Ms. Lillie?" He asked. "We're going to Kanto," I replied.

"Alright, please use your seatbelt everyone. We will take off now." We do as he said and the plane takes off, going to Kanto.

The boys were talking about pokemon, in the back. while us girls... well... you know what are we talking about.

"Okay,I'm serious Lillie, when are you gonna confess your feelings for him?" Mallow said, with her 'i am dead serious' tone.

"I'm waiting for the right time to tell him, okay?!" I told her.

"Every time you found a right time you always say it's not the right time!" Lana said angrily this time, but her voice is still low. "Why do you always do that?!"

"Urgh.." I groaned. Why do they must

"If you do not tell him today then we both will tell him. Mallow warned me.

"Y-you won't..." I stuttered.

"Oh yes, we would. And we are dead serious." Okay, they are really serious this time.

"Okay, okay, fine! I will jeez!"

"You better do." They said.

--- a few hours later, Kanto: Viridian Forrest---

Ash's POV

"So, why are we here again?" Asked Lana.

"We're here to meet my pokemon," I answered.

"Oh. What kind of pokemon?" Asked Mallow.

"My very first flying type pokemon. I have to release her to protect Pidgey and Pidgeotto flocks from some crazy Spearow flocks. I promised that i'll be back, but I didn't." I sighing sadly. "She probably hates me now, since I didn't keep my promise..."

"Don't worry Ash, you did the right thing. The Spearow flocks probably still terrorizing the Pidgey and Pidgeotto flocks now. And I'm pretty sure that she won't hate you." Lillie comfort me and put a hand on my shoulder. I smiled. "Thanks, Lillie." I thank him. Lillie smiled. Her face is... red? But the sun is not that hot...

Then, out of nowhere, a flock of Spearow came toward us

"Uhh... I don't think they came toward us with good reason..." Kiawe said nervously.

"Oh no..." I said. "It's the very same Spearow flocks... dang it why now...?!"

The Spearow flocks attacked us. They peck our head, hand, you name it.

"OWW!!! DARN IT GET OFF!!!" Sophocles yelled.

"OWW GET OFF OF ME!!! Mallow yelled too.

Then suddenly a loud of screech is echoed. It's...

"GOT!!!"

"Wha-?!"

"PIDGEOT!!!" A flock of Pidgey and pidgeotto lead by a very big pidgeot came. Then another six Pidgeot came from behind the very big Pidgeot. The big Pidgeot battled a Fearow that lead the Spearow flock.

"Whoa... Look at that..." Sophocles said.

"That's a very powerful Pidgeot..." said Mallow.

"..." I just silently watch the Pidgeot battling the big Fearow. Could it be...?

"Ash, is that the Pidgeot you're talking about?" Asked Lillie.

"I'm not sure..." I said.

The battle is very short due to how powerful the Pidgeot is. The Fearow then retreat along with the Spearow flocks. I approach the Pidgeot slowly to make sure I didn't scare it.

Surprisingly, the Pidgeot suddenly chirp happily and open its wings widely. Then it quickly hugs me. Leaving me confused. Wait...

"Are you the same Pidgeot I had long ago?" I asked. The Pidgeot nodding its head, meaning it says yes.

"I'm so happy so see you again girl!" The Pidgeot nodding its head again. Pidgeot release me and I look at the ground. Alright...

"Pidgeot, I know that I didn't keep my promise long ago... I know that you are angry at me for not keeping that promise... If you don't forgive me... that is okay... all I want is that you know that even if you don't forgive me, I just want you to know that I am sorry..."

Pidgeot only shook its head. "Pidgeot." It nuzzles my cheek.

"So do you forgive me...?" I asked.

"Pidgeot!" Pidgeot nodding its head quickly. I smiled.

"Thank you Pidgeot..."

"Pidge!" Pidgeot pointing my empty Pokeball on my Pokebelt.

"You want to come with me Pidgeot?" I asked. Pidgeot nodding its head.

"Okay then." then Pidgeot touched the empty Pokeball. The Pokeball didn't shake, instead it releases a 'Ping' noise, means that Pidgeot is captured. "Welcome back to the family Pidgeot."

"Well, that some powerful Pidgeot you got there Ash," Lana said.

"Yeah, I didn't know you have a pidgeot that powerful!" Sophocles said. I just smiled.

"Well, let's continue to Pallet Town shall we?" I said. They nod their head. We continue to walk to Pallet Town from Viridian Forrest.

---A few minutes later---

Ash's POV

"Ahhh... Pallet Town... We finally back buddy!" I take a deep breath and release it.

"Pika!" Pikachu happily said.

"Well, let's go, everyone!" I run around the town, along with my friends behind me.

"Hey wait up Ash!" They yell at me. I just laugh. After a few minutes of running, we arrive at my house.

"Well, here we are guys." I knock the door a few times. Then the door opened, revealing my mom.

"Oh... Ash..." My mom said darkly...

Hi mom!" But my mom didn't replied. "Mom...?" I asked again.

...

"Mom is something wrong?" "Pika?"

"Look at your feet." Mom said coldly. I do as she told. When i look at my feed... i realize that my shoe are covered in mud,and the floor i am standing... is now covered with mud...

Now i know why she's act like that...

"Get the floor clean,then you can come in." Mom said angrily.

She throw a mop at me,which i catch before it hit my head. heard a laugh from my back. I turn my head and saw my friends laughing at me. I sighed.

---Few minutes later---

Third Person's POV

"And done!" Ash said. "Mom,i'm done!"

Then out of nowhere,Delia suddenly hug Ash veeeeerrrryyyy tight. Pikachu jump from Ash's shoulder when he saw a bottle of ketchup.

"I'm so happy that you're back! " Delia said while hugging Ash 'till his face went blue "Welcome back dear!"

"Mom... can't breath... stop..." i said while suffocating. She then release me from her deadly hug.

"Hmph! Can't a mother hug her own son when he's back from his journey?" I froze...

"U-uuuhhhhhh...." i stuttered.

"And don't you dare tell me that you'll leave again quickly..." Delia said darkly...

'She must have missed me so much...' Ash thought.

"D-don't worry mom,i won't..." i said stuttered.

"That's good!" And,she hug me again with her deadly hug... "Did you change your-"

"FOR ARCEUS'S SAKE MOM WOULD YOU STOP ASKING THE SAME THING WHEN I'M BACK?!?!?!" Ash yelled. But she just laugh.

"Okay okay,I'll stop. For now..." she said. Ash groaned.

"OH! and looks like you brought some friends!"

"Yeah! The shirtless one is Kiawe,the green hair one is Mallow,Blue hair one is Lana,the orange hair one is Sophocles,and the blonde one is Lillie." Ash introduced his classmate.

"Well what are you waiting for? Let's go inside!" Delia said.

When Ash go inside,he saw some familiar faces. There are Brock,Gary,Misty,May,Max,Dawn,Trip,Clemont,Bonnie,Serena,and a guy holding Serena's hand.

"Ash,this is Serena's friend... or boyfriend to be exact. His name is Calem. He is the new Kalos Champion." My mom introduced me.

"Hi! My name is Ash Ketchum. This is my partner Pikachu!" "Pika!" Me and Pikachu introduced ourself. "My name is Calem. Nice to meet you."

"Jow about you go eat Ash? I made some foods for you." Delia said.

"Okay. C'mon guys let's eat!" Ash said. Everyone joined me eating.

---After Ash done eating like a PIG---

Ash's POV

"Ahhh... delicious..." i said with my mouth full. I swallowed the food on my mouth and took some tissue to clean my mouth.

"Don't talk while eating Ash." My mom said. "I'll be back okay? I'm going to Prof. Oak's lab. Bye dear!" My mom waves her hands to me,which i waved back.

"Okay mom!" I turn my head to my friends. "So,how are you guys doing?"

"Ash,we need to tell you something." Brock said.

"Huh? What is it?"

"We think you should end this. " Brock answered.

"End...what?" I asked Brock confused. I got a bad feeling about this...

"END YOUR STUPID DREAM,THAT'S WHAT!!!" Misty and Iris said in unison.

"What?!" Me,and my classmate,yelled in surprise.

"Ash,you must stop trying to become Pokemon Master! You failed at every single league,and you almost made us killed on your stupid journey!!!" Said Misty angrily.

"But i won the Orange Island league!!! and you all are the one who begging on my feet to join me on my journey!!!" I retaliate

"And that's not an official league!!!" May said. This made me starting to boiling mad.

"A kid like you will never win a league" Iris added with an annoyed tone i think.

"Most of your battles are just a mere dumb luck. You'll never be a good trainer like me." Trip said while smirking. Oh well... the usual. He's so cocky. If he isn't cocky,then it's the Trip from another dimension.

"You always blew up my invention!!!" Clemont yelled.

"HEY! IT'S YOUR FAULT THAT YOUR INVENTION ALWAYS BLEW UP!!! YOUR INVENTION ALWAYS BLEW UP WAY BEFORE YOU MEET ASH!!!" Retaliate a 10 years old blonde girl.

"HEY!!! WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ON BONNIE?!!!" Yelled Clemont.

"I'm on Ash's side! I don't care what you said,but i will never leave Ash's side!" Bonnie answered. Clemont become furious at his sister.

"Count me in!!" yelled Max.

"NOT YOU TOO MAX!!!" The brunette girl yelled at Max.

"I'll never betraying him! He's like a brother to me!" Max yelled back. May become very angry at her brother.

"I'll never betray my best friend and my rival. I'm on Ashy-Boy's side." A boy that calls me with that annoying nickname said. Gary Oak.

"Serena... Do you agree with them...?" I asked them.

"And what if i am? Even at Kalos League,you only got on the finals! You'll never be a Pokemon Master or Champion! and you'll never win a league!" Serena said

That is enough to make my anger reach a whole new level...

"Dawn! Why didn't you say anything?!" Asked,or demanded May. Dawn seems hesitate,but she answered anyway.

"Because i can't betray him. He's like a brother for me. He always help me when i need it. And because of that,i won't betray him!"

"He's nothing but a loser!!" This time Trip yelled.

"Oh I'm a loser?! I'M A LOSER?!??!?! Did you all forget if it's not because me you will never become who you all are today The traitors were speechless,don't know how to counter that. Pikachu is now charging a thunderbolt.

i point my finger at Misty...

"MISTY,IF IT WASN'T FOR me you WOULDN'T HAVE Psyduck or EVEN GYARADOS! AND YOU CALL ME WEAK?! who IS THE WEAKLING HERE?! THE ONE who DIDN'T WON A SINGLE OFFICIAL LEAGUE,OR THE ONE who CAN'T EVEN GET NEAR ONE METER TO A BUG TYPE?!!!" 2

Then at Iris...

"AND YOU,YOU ARE NOT EVEN BETTER THAN THAT BITCH! YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE AN ICE TYPE,OR YOU'LL RUN WITH YOUR ASS TO 5 KILOMETERS FAR AWAY!!! AND YOU CLAIM YOURSELF AS A DRAGON MASTER?! DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH!!! YOU BARELY HAVE SOME DRAGON TYPE!!!" 3

Then at Clemont...

"YOU! YOU SAID THAT I BLOW UP YOUR EVERY INVENTION?! YOU SAID THAT YOU GOT YOUR ASS KICKED FROM YOUR STUPID GYM BY YOUR OWN CREATION!!! AND YOU BLAME IT ALL AT ME?! YEAH THANKS SON OF A BITCH!!! INVENTOR MY ASS!!!"

Then,at May...

"AND YOU BITCH,IF IT WASN'T FOR me YOU'LL NEVER BE A GOOD COORDINATOR IF IT WASN'T FOR me HELPING YOU PRACTICING!!!"

Then at Serena...

"YOU'RE MY CHILDHOOD FRIEND!!! YOU'RE LIKE A SISTER TO ME!!! I HELPED YOU EVERY TIME YOU NEED MY HELP!!! AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME?!!!"

"IF IT WASN'T FOR ME AND MY HELP,YOU WILL NEVER BECOME who YOU ALL TODAY!!! I SHOULD HAVE NEVER HELPED YOU ALL!!! I REGRET EVERYTHING I'VE DONE FOR YOU ALL!!! IF THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME,WELL THANK YOU AND THANKS A LOT!!!"

Third Person's POV

'This situation is similar to what happens on my dream...' Lillie thought.

After Ash stop yelling,the traitors,are lost for words. Even Ash's classmates are stunned. They never saw Ash's out of character behavior. The house are completely silence. No words are released from anyone. But then...

"Well... this is going nowhere. Shall we begin for plan B?" Calem said.

'Plan B?' Ash thought.

"What are you talking about Calem?!" Gary asked.

"Well... it's very simple. If you're not giving your dream,we'll kill you..." Calem said darkly and smirking evilly.

"What the hell?! What kind of human are you?!" Gary yelled.

"Shut up! If you keep talking,then we'll kill you first right now!" Trip yelled.

"Why you...!!!" Gary was about to punch Trip,but Kiawe stop him before he do.

"Urgh... Gary stop it!" Kiawe said while trying to hold Gary from punching Trip.

"Like hell i would give up my dream!!!" Ash said.

Calem smirks "We knew you would say that."

then Calem reach his back and pointing a gun at Ash,suprising Ash's classmate. "Any last words?" Calem said while having a evil smirk on his face.

"Yeah... I hope you all rotten in hell!" Ash said darkly. He close hus eyes,waiting the bullet pass throught his brain. Ash's classmate,Dawn,Bonnie,and Max close their eyes too. Their eyes filled with tears.

"Protect."

*BANG*

...

....

.....

Ash wait for the bullet hit his head,but he didn't feel anything.

'Am i already dead...?' Ash thought confused. Ash open his eyes,then he saw a Gallade in front of him. Using Protect.

"What???" Ash said confused.

"Are you okay...?" Said a cold voice. Ash turn to his left to find a guy with a black jacket,blue shirt,black hair,and black jeans. And a gun on his left hand.

'I bet some girls would say that he's handsome.' Ash thought.

'W-wow... He's so damn handsome...!' May,Serena,Iris and Misty thought.

The mysterious guy read their thought (exept Ash's thought) and he feels like he was about to throw up.

"Who the hell are you?!" Camel demanded.

"Why do you want to kill him anyway Calem...?" The Mysterious Guy asked.

"How the hell you know my name asshole?!" Camel demanded

"You've forgotten me? I am surprised. And you still haven't changed..."

"You better don't bothering us,or else-"

"Or else what? You will kill me?" The Mysterious Boy interupted

"Yes!!!"

"Go ahead. Try kill me." The mysterious guy challanged.

"Are you crazy?! You'll get yourself killed!" Said Sophocles.

The mysterious guy turn his head to Ash and his group. "No worries. Today's not my day to meet Arceus." The mysterious guy assuring them.

"You guys go to Prof. Oak's lab. Get all of your pokemons Ashura. I'll handle them."

"You sure?!" Gary asked.

"Yes. Now go!" The guy ordered.

"I don't know who you are,but thanks anyway!" Ash and his group then run to Prof. Oak's lab,leaving the Mysterious Boy behind.

"Now... let's get down to business..." the boy said darkly. Then a Lucario appeared beside him.

---Ash's POV---

"I don't know who you are,but thanks anyway!" We run to Prof. Oak's lab,leaving the Mysterious Guy behind.

"Who IS that guy? He suddently appeared out of nowhere with that Gallade,then they save us!" Gary said.

"Well,whoever he is,we owe him now." I said as we keep running. A few seconds later,we reach Prof. Oak's lab.

"Let's get gramps first!" Gary said.

"Gary? Is that you?" A voice echoed from the back.

The voice belong to a old man with white jacket / white lab coat (A/N: I'm not good at describing things in english...) and my mother.

"What's going on?" Prof. Oak asked.

We tell them what happens,from the start of the betrayal,to the guy who saved us. It takes a few minutes to explain it all to him.

"Hmmm.... i never thought that the new Kalos Champion would do that..." Prof. Oak said

"How could Serena do this?! She will pay for this!!!" Delia said with a red aura surrounding her. Everyone sweatdrop at her and sweating.

"So,what will you all do now?" He asked.

"We're gonna escape to Alola. But first i need to get all of my pokemons first." I said.

"Very well. TRACEY?" Then a few seconds later Tracey came.

"Yes Professor? Oh Ash,didn't expecting you here. What's up?" Tracet asked.

"I'll explain it later. Can you please get all of Ash's pokemons?" Prof. Oak said.

"It'll take some minutes. Can you guys wait?" We nod our head. "Good. I'll get them right away!" Then he disappeared.

"How the heck did he dissapeared instantly?" Kiawe asked.

"How the heck should i know?" I asked back.

---Few minutes later...---

Tracey back with some basket full of pokeball. My classmate,Max,Dawn,and Bonnie were godsmacked. 'How the heck did he get THAT many pokemons?!' They thought. Gary however,isn't suprised.

"How the heck you got that many pokemon Ash?" They asked,except Gary,Prof. Oak,Delia and Tracey. Gary just laughed.

"You should be suprised by how many Tauros did he got!" He said while laughing. Prof. Oak and Tracey then join laughing.

"Hey Ash,can i join you go to Alola?" Gary asked. This statement made Prof. Oak and Tracey suprised.

"Are you sure Gary?" I asked him.

"Yeah. I want to do some research with Alolan pokemons. And i heard that there's a mysterious beings called Ultra Beast. I can study them and send the data to Gramps. I'm sure Gramps would love to get some data about them." He replied.

"Well,that's your choice. You can join us anytime Gary." I told him.

"Thanks Ashy-boy." He thank me.

"You're welcome Gary." I said with smile.

"Wait... what about that guy? We can't just leave him there!" Kiawe asked.

---Meanwhile with the Mysterious Guy (before Ash reach the Lab).---

????'s POV

'Drain Punch.' I mentally ordered my Gallade. Gallade then punch the Kalos Champion's Zoroark. After some punches from Gallade,Zoroark is fainted. Badly injured. Should have used Zoroark first,since it has the ability Illusion. How the hell did he become a champion anyway? Did Diantha go easy on him? 8

Even thought we are outnumbered,the fight is too easy for me and my pokemons.

"Fuck!!!" The so-called-Kalos-Champion yelled/cursed. I mentally laughing my ass off. I think even Ash can defeat him easily without any sweat. The Kalos Champion send out a Salamence,mega evolve it.

"Use Dragon Rush!!!" Camel ordered.

'Step on the right to dodge it' i ordered. Gallade do as i told and he step on the right,dodging the Dragon Rush easily. Unfortunately,after that Dragon Rush,Salamence hit a nearby tree,so its head now stuck on the tree. 7

'Use Ice Punch.'

Gallade then casually walk to Salamence. Once he is near Salamence's wing,he punch it with Ice Punch,making its wings frozen.

But Gallade isn't finished yet.

He keep punching Salamence with a barrage of Ice Punch. Salamence cried in pain,but Gallade is a very aggresive at battling. After 20 seconds later,Salamence is unconsious. Its wings frozen,its tail also frozen,hell,even its neck frozen.

Calem could only stare at his Salamence. He then return his Salamence without any words.

'This is too easy.' Gallade communicate with me throught our aura.

'Yeah sure. Next time you said that you'll end up get your butt kicked by Lucario again.' I retorted. The said Aura Pokemon that fighting a Delphox chuckled,making Gallade embarrased.

'Lucario,use Stone Edge on Dragonite,then Dragon Pulse on Serperior. Gallade,use Thunder Punch on Starmie. Knock them out.'

Lucario then use Stone Edge at Dragonite,knocking it down from the sky,and fainted. Then Lucario used Dragon Pulse at Serperior,knocking it out cold. An electricity flowing at Gallade's hands,then he's rushing at Starmie,and punching it repeadly.

Oh,did i mention that my pokemons are all aggresive?

After receiving some barrage of Thunder Punch from Gallade,Starmie is knocked out cold.

I then yelled "Earthquake! Full power!!!"

Lucario slam his foot on the ground,creating an earthquake. Since Luxray,Delphox,And Blaziken is weak against Ground-Type,the Earthquake is super effective.

"Hah. Kalos Champion my ass. Pathetic." I said while facing to my pokemons.

"Gallade,Lucario,both of you have done enough for now. Thank you. Return." I thanked both Gallade and Lucario,then return them to my Luxury Ball.

'Ashura should be done getting all of his pokemon by now. I should go to Prof. Oak's lab right now.'

"Gyarados,Hyper Beam!!!"

I sighed. 'Do they EVER give up?' I asked myself. I summon a dark red barrier that has Ω symbol on it. The Hyper Beam hit the barrier,but the barrier is not even damaged. I turn around to face the Gyarados trainer.

"Really now? You would try to kill me?" I sighed again.

"SHUT UP!!! You have no right to tell me what to do!!!"

"I could report you dumbasses to Champion Lance for attempt of trying to killing innocent people." I warned.

"You don't even have any evidence!!!" Clemont said and smirking.

"Oh,i do have a evidence." I raise my right hand,revealing a device that looks like a recorder. I play the device.

"Well... this is going nowhere. Shall we begin for plan B?"

"What are you talking about Calem?!"

"Well... it's very simple. If you're not giving your dream,we'll kill you..."

"Now,if you dare do anything stupid,i swear to Arceus i will send the evidence to Champion Lance."

"Then why don't you send it now?!" The so-called-Kalos-Champion demanded.

"Well that's a very simple question,isn't it? I will send it after Ash done get his revenge over you assholes. Now,you better stay the fuck away from Ash's life,or i'll kill you myself." I said as my left hand reach my back,and activate my pink saber (A/N: NOT A LIGHTSABER FROM STAR WARS.). I pointing my saber at Misty's throat. The saber is only a few inch away from her throat.

"YOU UNDERSTAND BITCH?!" I yelled. Misty only nodding her head. I can see her face scared.

"Good. If you try if you do something stupid..." i swing my saber at Calem's hair. A strand of his hair fall. The traitor's eyes went as big as a plate,after seeing Calem's hair being cutted easily.

"You know the consequence..." I said darkly. I walk away toward Prof. Oak's lab.

As i reach the lab,i heard someone talking.

"Wait... what about that guy? We can't just leave him there!" Said someone.

"You guys talking about me?" I asked. As i said that,they jump up surprised.

"When did you get in here?" Asked a shirtless guy.

"Just a few seconds ago." I calmly responded. "You guys were busy talking so you didn't notice me."

"You guys better get out of Kanto quick before those assholes come back. I doubt they will give up easily." I told them. "I suggest go back to Alola. It's more safer than anywhere."

"But how did you know we're from Alola?" Asked a girl with blue hair. I just shrugged.

"Someone told me. Don't ask who." I responded.

"Why are you helping us?" Ash asked me.

"I shouldn't need any reason to help someone who needs help." I replied.

"Anyways,i'll escort you guys to the airport. You guys ready to go?" They nodded their head.

"Wait! What about you,mom?" Ash asked his mother.

"Don't worry Ash. If they dare do anything to your mother,we'll report them to police and Mr. Goodshow." Prof. Oak assured.

"Can someone please explain to me what's going on?" Tracey asked.

"Alright alright i'll explain to you."

Prof. Oak then tell Tracey everything about the betrayal. After that,Tracey then confused why would they trying to kill Ash if he don't want to give up his dream.

"But i don't understand why the Kalos Champion want to kill Ash though..."

"It's because that son of a bitch hate seeing someone who is even more stronger than him." I told them while leaning against a wall. They are shocked hearing this.

"How did you know about that?" The fat boy with orange hair asked me.

"Because i was one of those people who he hates." I said while my anger is growing. "He almost killed me back when i'm on Sinnoh league. It happens on night. He lost to me in the Top 4. After our battle,i was going to heal my pokemon,but before i can reach the Pokemon Center,he ordered his Salamence to use Dragon Pulse on me."

Everyone are shocked to hear this. "That motherfucker..." Gary growled.

"How did you survive?" A boy with a glass asked.

"Lucario used Heal Pulse on me." I answered.

"Is there any witness when that happened?" A girl with green hair asked.

"None..."

"How could he! Trying to kill innocent people just because he lost in a league!" Tracey said

"There's no use talking about it. We should be get going now." I told them. They nodded their head again.

Third Person's POV

"Good by dear... take care..." Delia said while hug her son.

"Good bye mom... i promise i'll be back." Ash said and hug Delia too. Then he release the hug and said good bye to Prof. Oak and Tracey.

"Good bye Prof. Oak. Good bye Tracey."

"Good bye Ash." Both Prof. Oak and Tracey said in unison.

As they go to an open field,the mysterious guy pull out a Luxury Ball,release his flying type pokemon. Revealing a Charizard with 2 Mega Stones,one on its neck,and one on its tail.

Ash also release his flying types,which is Staraptor,Noivern,Talonflame,Pidgeot,and his Charizard. The flying types then instantly hug Ash,exept Charizard.

"Okay okay,good to see you guys again!" Ash said. "So how's everyone doing?"

All of Ash's flying type then cried happily,telling Ash that they're doing fine. "That's good!" Ash said.

"Whoa!" Sophocles said with awe seeing Ash's pokemons.

"Look at that Charizard! It's so big!" Kiawe said with awe. Charizard smirking and let loose a flamethrower to the air. "Whoa! What power!!!"

"Hi Charizard. How are you buddy?" Charizard then greet Ash with his "usuall greet".

Yep,you know it.

A Flamethrower on the face.

"ASH!!!" All of Ash's friend exept the mysterious guy rushing at Ash,checking him if he got any injury. Meanwhile Ash's pokemon and Pikachu are sweatdrop at Charizard.

"Good to see you too buddy." Ash said coughing,then fall on the ground.

(A/N: CHARIZARD USED FLAMETHROWER! IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE! TEH WILD ASH KETCUM FAINTED! XD)

"What are you doing?!!!" Lillie yelled at the overgrown Charizard. Charizard just stare at her with a confused face. Then Ash get up while coughing.

"Don't worry Lillie. That's just Charizard's way to greet me."

"Are you okay?!" Lillie said panicked.

"Yes *cough* i'm fine." Ash replied.

"Are you sure?!" Lillie asked again.

"Yeah. I'm sure." Ash replied again. Then Bonnie,Ash's classmate,excluding Lillie,smirked.

"Yeah he's fine Lillie. Why are you so worried about him? What are you,his wife?" Mallow teased. Lillie blushed red and send a death glare at the green haired Trial Captain.

Everyone laughed (exept that guy of course),while Lillie still glaring and blushing hard.

Ash,with his Dense Rock ability is passive,and his well-known move known as Brick Head automatically active for infinite amount of time,have no idea what are they talking about. He decide to shurg it off.

"Alright everyone,you guys may wondering what happened,but this is not the time for explanation. We need to get out of Kanto quick. So i need you guys to help us fly to Virdian City. Can you do that?"

All of Ash's pokemon cried,indicating that they can help them.

"Thank you everyone." Then Ash turn his head to his friends. "Alright,some of you will fly with Staraptor,Pidgeot,Noivern,and Talonflame. So choose which pokemon you want to fly with." Ash said to the group.

"I'll go with Staraptor." Said Mallow and Lana.

"I'll go with Pidgeot!" Said Sophocles,Kiawe,and Gary.

"I'll go with this one." Said Dawn,refering to Noivern.

"Then i'll go with Talonflame." Said Bonnie.

Now Max is confused. 'What am i going to use? I don't have any flying type pokemon yet.' Max thought.

"How about you go with Talonflame with Bonnie,Max?" Ash said.

"Wait,what?!" Max and Bonnie squeaked.

"And Lillie go with Ash and his Charizard!" Mallow and Lana said,while giggling. Then Lillie's cheek turned red,redder than a tomato.

"W-what?!" Lillie said while blushing more harder.

"You don't have a choice but go with Ash!" Mallow said while laughing,while Lana is giggling harder this time.

"B-b-bu-" but Ash cut off Lillie.

"C'mon Lillie. Hop on." Ash said while giving Lillie a hand. Lillie have no choice and accepted his hand. While blushing hard of course. Pikachu,however,is having a devilish smirk on his face.

"Max,hurry up. We don't have much time! Those assholes probably near now!" The mysterious guy said. Max glared at him,but the guy didn't fazed of Max's glare

"Max!" Ash yelled,getting impatient.

"OKAY OKAY FINE!" Max then joining Bonnie with Talonflame.

"Okay then. Everyone ready?" Ash turns his head to everyone. They nodded.

"Okay then. Let's GO!" With that,everyone take off from Pallet Town. Lillie however,must hugging Ash for her life due to Charizard's speed.

While on the air,the mysterious guy heard a voice on his head.

'Thank you for saving the Chosen One,V-'

'Please call me with my codename Lord Arceus.' The mysterious guy cut the Alpha Pokemon.

'Very well. Thank you for saving the Chosen One,Codename: Ω.' The Alpha Pokemon thanked him.

'I only do what you asked Lord Arceus. You don't need to thank me.'

Codename: Ω replied. With that,the conversation ended.

'Hmmm.... why don't i join Ash on his journey? I got nothing to do in Neo Arcadia anyway.'

---A few hours later---

Virdian Forest,near Virdian City

Ash and the gang is now landing in Virdian Forest,just about 1 kilometer away from Virdian City. They recall their pokemons.

"Thank you everyone." Ash said and return his pokemons.

"Thank you Charizard. Now get rest." Codename: Ω thanked his Charizard and return him back to his Luxury Ball. Before the gang walk to the Virdian City,Codename: Ω walk to Ash and talk to him.

"Ash,can i join you to Alola?" The gang were surprised hearing this.

"Sure,you can. But why?" Ash asked.

"Well,i got nothing to do in my home region anyway. And it's been a while i stop traveling. So can i join you?"

"Sure. The more the merrier." "Pikachu!" Ash and Pikachu replied.

"Thanks. We should get going now. I don't want to see those fools again." Codename: Ω said.

"Okay. Let's go." The gang then walk to Virdian City. It only took them about 30 minutes to reach Virdian City entrance.

"Okay,now how are we gonna go to Alola?"

"I'll call Hobbes to get us a jet. But it'll take a few hours to get the jet here from Alola." Lillie said.

A special event was occurring at the Hau'oli Mall on Melemele Island. Inside, Ash, Burnet, Pikachu and Rotom shopped while Kukui's wife gazed at the Corsola-horned crafted hearts hanging from the ceiling. "I do wish Professor Kukui was by my side at this time," she smiled. Ash and Pikachu exited a Pokémon clothing store with Pikachu riding on Ash's shoulder and Rotom flying by his side. Pikachu was wearing a Pikachu Libre outfit.

"Brings back that time we did that Pikachu movie in Kalos, huh, buddy?" he asked.

("For sure,") Pikachu squeaked. Rotom seemed curious to the memory.

"That outfit was in a movie you did?" he asked.

"Of course, and a lot of Pikachu were involved as well," Ash confirmed. "Maybe with a stop to the video store, I'll show you, the professors and the Pokémon." Burnet saw the three leave the store.

"Pikachu, you look like a miniature wrestler," she cooed. Pikachu blushed to Burnet's praise.

"Pikachu Libre," Ash replied. "He saw it and I thought I'd get it for him."

"I see. Anyway, let's get to see Royal Mask."

"Okay." Before they could move on…

"Burnet!" called out Lusamine. Turning, Ash, Burnet and Rotom found Lusamine, Lillie and Snowy visiting.

"Boss!" gawked Burnet. "Alola!" Lillie dashed to Ash and reached Pikachu to pet.

"Lillie, alola!" welcomed Ash.

"Alola, Ash!" returned Lillie. "Is that Pikachu Libre?"

("It is,") Pikachu confirmed. Turning to Ash, she had a question.

"Here to see Royal Mask?" she asked. Ash itched his head in guilt.

"Well, Professor Burnet insisted since she's become one of Royal Mask's loyal fans. I mean, so am I but-"

"I still remember you and Torracat teaming up with Royal Mask against the Revengers. It's a shock that he didn't invite you as a guest."

"I've only appeared once so people wouldn't recognize me if I did appear again." Lillie giggled before noting Lusamine and Burnet's laughter.

"I like Royal Mask, but I'm not gonna divorce Kukui for him!" an excited Burnet denied.

"Calm down, Burnet!" laughed Lusamine. "After all my daughter and her friends did to hitch you two, I don't wanna see you two split either." Burnet sighed in relief before everyone headed into a small arena where they saw Royal Mask shaking hands with people while his Incineroar tossed giant plush dolls over his head.

"That's some strength!" awed Ash. Seeing Burnet and Ash, Royal Mask shuttered. Still, he regained form for the most part.

"Well, if it isn't my tag team partner from a few weeks ago!" he sneered as he shook hands with Ash. "How's it going?"

"Great," he replied.

"Great, indeed… I may need your services again if the need arises. Can you do that for me?" Offered, Ash pumped his fist.

"Count on it!" Not willing to be left out, Burnet grabbed Royal Mask's hands.

"Royal Mask!" she cheered. "How much I want to be held in your arms!" she cooed. Royal Mask smiled to the loving words.

"That is… much appreciated," he stuttered. Incineroar came over and growled something.

("Boss, I'm hungry,") he mewed. Royal Mask heard his Incineroar and acknowledged his needs.

"We've been out here for a couple of hours, and Incineroar needs a break," he explained. "We'll be back after half an hour." The fans groaned as Royal Mask and Incineroar exited.

"I'm sure Royal Mask and Incineroar will be back out shortly," Lusamine believed.

"You're probably right, Mother," Lillie agreed. In a few minutes, Professor Kukui arrived, a little winded from his faint labored breathing.

"Ash!" he called out. "Burnet!" The crowd turned to see Kukui arriving.

"Professor Kukui!" noted Lillie. Kukui now noted the Chairwoman of the Aether Paradise and her daughter.

"Alola, Lusamine, Lillie…" he huffed, still a little out of breath. "What brings you out here to the mall?"

"See, Royal Mask is the subject of my research for my-" Suddenly, the lights turned off. All wondered the ordeal.

"Wh- What's going on!?" shrieked Rotom. Suddenly, a cackle. All suddenly turned to the entrance where Mad Magma and Magmortar stood by one exit.

"This mall now belongs to the Revengers!" stammered Mad Magma. "And we're here for Royal Mask!" Everyone felt a little cornered. The other side was covered as well by Mister Electric and Electivire.

"There's nowhere for you to run now!" the second Revenger denied. To Kukui, this wasn't the ideal situation.

'Great, who would've thought Viren and his Revengers would crash this party?' he thought. 'And on top of that, I can't get back to change and get Incineroar! Hopefully, Molayne doesn't mess it up.' Viren entered to see that Mad Magma and Mister Electric had the crowd in control.

"Where are you, Royal Mask!?" cried out Burnet.

"Don't worry about your missing idol," Viren scoffed. "The Revengers and the Rainbow Happy Resorts will sponsor this rematch where you can see Royal Mask get the beating he deserves." Ash and Pikachu seethed at the callous nature.

"You're cowards!" he snapped.

"You want a coward, where's the hero?" taunted Mad Magma. "The star? Did he burn out his welcome?" Without warning, someone did arrive.

"You'll be the one burned out, Mad Magma!" a new voice echoed. All turned to see Royal Mask. Everyone cheered at the arrival of their savior, though Incineroar wasn't present.

"It's Royal Mask!" cheered Lillie. Seeing the different beard on Royal Mask, Lusamine felt skeptical.

"Royal Mask looks a lot different than I remember," she informed. Rotom also noticed the new Royal Mask.

"I was gonna imply as well!" he studied. He brought up the new looking Royal Mask to the one who was there when Ash and the group first got to the arena. He overlapped the two. "The chances these two are the same is… 5.5%." Kukui also noticed the different Royal Mask, but growled to the lack of identity.

'That's not even Molayne!' he groaned in thought. 'In fact, I'd say that's Faba! He's ruined my plans!' Reaching the turnbuckle to hoist himself up, Faba faced Viren and Mad Magma.

"You will release these people and Pokémon at once!" he acted.

"Oh, of course, your scrawny-ness!" mocked Mister Electric. "Only if you can beat us!" Magmortar jumped into the ring. Faba had to act.

"If that's the case, let's go, Incineroar!" he summoned by throwing the Pokéball. The Wrestling Pokémon emerged from the ball and now the battle would commence. "Alright, Incineroar. Use Darkest Lariat!" Incineroar looked back to confirm the command, but saw Faba through the mask, becoming befuddled.

("Who are you, now?") he growled. Looking to the crowd, he saw Kukui

"Come on, use Darkest Lariat!" demanded Faba. Everyone began to suspect a problem, even Mad Magma.

"This is hilarious!" he laughed. "Something tells me, you're not the real Royal Mask!" Faba cringed at being discovered.

"I'll show you it's not who wears the mask, it's how they wear it! Incineroar, use Darkest Lariat!" Incineroar didn't want to but felt little choice in doing so. He began to spin around like a twister but Mad Magma had other ideas.

"Use Fling, Magmortar." Command given, Magmortar evaded the Darkest Lariat and snagged Incineroar. It threw the Wrestling Pokémon to Faba and out of the ring, onto the hard floor below. In celebration, Magmortar shot fire from his cannon arms. Everyone took cover from the heated streams, buying Ash time to escape. He dashed over to Faba and dragged him backstage.

"The mighty Royal Mask has fallen!" taunted Viren. "The Revengers have their revenge!" The crowd booed the resort owner's mockery. Incineroar joined Ash as he removed the mask from Faba, exposing the fraud.

"Faba?" he gasped. Recalling Rotom's diagnosis, Ash believed Faba had substituted for the real Royal Mask. "He just wanted to do a show and the Revengers wanted a battle."

("So that's why,") Incineroar mulled. Just then, a scream.

"Let me go!" cried Lillie. Peeking out, Ash saw Electivire holding Snowy and Viren holding Lillie by her arms in on hand. An Alolan Muk, Alolan Golem and a Poliwrath kept everyone away, including Lusamine.

"Lillie!" cried Lusamine. Viren sneered to Lillie who was in huge fear.

"Soon, we can claim the Royal Mask, and get our Revengers goal complete," he sneered. Hiding back, Ash had to do something.

"We don't have much choice in the matter," he growled while holding the Royal Mask. "I need your help, Incineroar. Can you?" Incineroar remembered seeing Ash's spirit before with Torracat and nodded.

"Come out, come out, wherever you are!" mocked Mad Magma. "If you don't, these people will be a little hotter than usual!" Ash felt ready to make his showing.

"You want the Royal Mask?" he called out. "Release the girl or be overwhelmed by the one who will overrun evil and cowards like yourselves!" Incineroar leaped into he ring before Ash, now wearing the Royal Mask, hopped over the ropes. "If you want the Royal Mask, here I am!" The crowd cheered as Kukui gawked to Ash's arrival.

'Boy, he came in like a Thunderbolt,' he muttered. 'Can he get Lillie out of there?' Ash received plenty of cheer when Ash and Incineroar did the pose.

"Enjoy!" he posed.

("Enjoy!") copied Incineroar. Mad Magma didn't appreciate being shown up by a young trainer.

"Alright, Prince…" he growled. "I know your game. Bring me the real Royal Mask or this girl's getting reformed as a Revenger."

"Ain't that right, cutie?" teased Viren as he pinched Lillie's cheek. The pain made her yelp. Ash growled, willing to save Lillie.

"Maybe you should know what the young prince has in store!" he warned. "Battle me and let her go, now!" Mad Magma didn't want to listen to the kid.

"Someone's in need of a timeout!" he snarled. "Magmortar, use Karate Chop!" Magmortar charged in and a ring bell rang. He cocked his arms in front.

"Incineroar, counter with Cross Chop!" Incineroar had his arms in front while charging at Magmortar. Both chopping attacks canceled each other.

"You just fell for our Feint Attack!" Magmortar staggered before launching a sneaky punch. Ash saw it and reacted.

"Now, Bulk Up!" Incineroar puffed his chest, the punch deflecting away.

"First time I've seen someone use a status buff as a Counter," Kukui gulped. Mad Magma growled to Ash's quick choice of moves.

"Alright, time to turn up the heat!" he snapped. "Use Flamethrower, Magmortar!" On command, Magmortar launched flames at Incineroar to which Ash smiled.

"Thank you!" he teased. "We'll be taking that with Darkest Lariat!" Incineroar performed another Darkest Lariat, intercepting the Flamethrower attack. With flames in paws, Ash had more. "Let's show these Revengers what to do when they play with fire!" Incineroar roared as he chucked flames at Electivire. The fireball launched Electivire into Mister Electric, both hitting the other Pokémon and knocked out. Another fireball came at Viren who gawked and ducked, covering his head with his hands and freeing Lillie. This was the moment Ash needed. "Lillie, get outta there!"

"Okay!" she agreed. She only made two steps when Mad Magma grabbed her by the arm.

"Not so fast, Sweetie!" he mocked. Ash sneered to Lillie's distraction as Magmortar gawked to his trainer's lack of attention.

"Throat Chop!" he ordered. Incineroar sneered before closing in on Magmortar. The Wrestling Pokémon still remembered the pep talk before hand.

(Flashback)

Ash removed his shirt before putting the mask on. "Remember, I don't have the Incinium Z so we can't use that Z-Move," he told Incineroar. "And besides, even if I did, I can't use it since I'm not your trainer."

("Got it,") Incineroar understood.

"Let's save everyone by the code of the Royal Mask."

Incineroar nailed Magmortar with the Throat Chop, dealing heavy damage and launching the Blast Pokémon into Mad Magma and releasing Lillie who reunited with Lusamine. Mad Magma and Magmortar were out and the ring bell rang again.

"Mother!" she cried as both hugged each other.

"Lillie!" she called out. Kiawe, Lana, Sophocles, Mallow and Officer Jenny burst through the door and wondered about the chaos.

"What's going on!?" shouted Mallow, her Tsareena also concerned. The kids reached Kukui who asked about the ordeal when Viren had more to offer.

"Don't think I'm done yet, Prince!" he growled. "You'll hand over the mask! This is a No Contest since I wasn't beaten by the real Royal Mask!" Ash scoffed to Viren's refusal to surrender.

"I was taught once that those who don't lose, don't learn!" he taunted. "Unfortunately, you're about to get schooled. Torracat, it's time!" Ash threw his Pokéball up and released Torracat. Then, he performed the Z-Move dance while armed with the Normalium Z. "You wanted to ruin the lives here? I'm about to put you in ruin with some extra damage!" Torracat felt the Normalium Z coursing through his body. "Torracat, at full power! Breakneck Blitz!" Torracat rushed Viren at full speed.

"Hey, this isn't legal!" he shouted. Torracat blasted Viren with Breakneck Blitz and he flew from the mall and into the police van's rear doors. He looked disoriented after the impact. Another Jenny slapped cuffs onto Viren.

"You're under arrest for kidnapping and unlawful arrest!" she judged. The other Jenny began to escort the rest of the Revengers out of the mall. Back inside, Ash fived Incineroar and Torracat before they did the pose.

"Thank you, everyone!" he cheered. "Enjoy!" Torracat and Incineroar mewed to copy Ash.

"Enjoy!" the crowd copied. Ash stood on the rope while pumping his fist. However, he slipped and his feet were tangled in the ropes while hanging upside down. Incineroar and Torracat gawked to the flop. Lillie and Lusamine came over to praise Ash for the rescue.

"Prince, I want to see more of you with Royal Mask," she wished with Snowy back in her arms.

"I'd be happy to," Ash promised. That's when Lillie sealed a kiss to the lips while Ash was still tangled. The classmates cooed the loving scene.

"Whoa, Lillie's got a boyfriend!" teased Sophocles.

"That was one heck of a reward," Mallow awed. Some of the staff helped get Ash down from the ropes when Lusamine wanted to reward Ash for his effort.

"You don't know how much it means to thank you for rescuing my daughter!" she happily yelled as she removed the mask to give Ash a barrage of kisses on the face. Everyone but Lusamine gasped at who played Royal Mask just now.

"Wait a sec!" gawked Kiawe. "You- You mean to tell me… Royal Mask… is Ash?"

"Someone should've told Lusamine that masked wrestlers should not have their masks removed," Lana groaned. When Lusamine saw who she was kissing, her face had gone pale as Kukui tilted his cap down and Burnet buried her face in her hand.

"Why, Lusamine?" she groaned. Ash felt defeated to his secret being released.

"Guess I've been unmasked," he admitted. Lillie soon recovered and accepted Ash for his role.

"You know, you've always been a hero, Ash… especially to me," she confessed before locking lips again, her foot popping up. Giddy, Lusamine brought out her camera and shot the scene. Pikachu couldn't help but laugh to the sight. Ash may have defeated the Revengers, but he's been forced to submit to the entanglement of love
