'Water Shuriken!'
Greninja grabbed it's Shuriken from its back and released towards Empoleon. Empoleon took the hit but did not recieve great amount of damage. 'Empoleon use tackle!' 'Infernape, Mach punch!' The two grunts called out. Empoleon charged at Greninja from the front while Infernape went from the side.
Greninja waited last second and then disappeared from the spot. Empoleon tackled into Infernape while it punched Empoleon back. 'Hey guys cut it out!' The grunts shouted and ran towards their Pokémon. 'Game set and match,' Ash twisted his hat backwards, 'Greninja use water shuriken!' Ash shouted at the top of his lungs. Greninja cried in anger and grabbed the Shuriken of it's back. It held it in the air as it grew a size bigger.
'Oh no..' The grunts whispered as they looked at the giant shuriken aiming for them. Once it made contact there was a huge explosion. The Shuriken burst through the roof with the grunts and their Pokémon on the end of it. 'Hey get us down!' The grunt shouted at Ash but disappeared into the cloudy sky.
Ash panted heavily and fell on his bum feeling tired out. 'Daddy?' Kaylin asked worriedly. Ash looked up and smiled, 'don't worry daddy is fine, just tired' Ash said breathing heavily. There was another explosion at the top of the tower. 'Oh no thats the others!' Ash said looking at Greninja. Ash told Kaylin to climb onto his back as they rushed to the top, as well as Pikachu in his hands.
'Clemont hang in there!' Bonnie cried from behind. Serena and the others were hiding behind a barrier as Clemont fought the grunt. 'Luxray use swift to block the shadow ball' Clemont commanded. Luxray cried and let stars fly out of his tail. The two attacks collided causing smoke to engulf their view. Out of nowhere the houndoom jumped and bit the luxray. Luxray screamed and was forced back into Clemont. The two of the crashed into each other and fell onto the ground.
'Haha! Its over, use flamethrower' The grunt shouted. Houndoom smirked and released flames from its mouth. Clemont closed his eyes dreading the outcome afterwards. However nothing came and he saw Ash and Greninja standing in front of them. 'Ash!' Serena shouted and was about to run but Ash used a force to keep her back. 'Wait!' Ash said and turned his attention to Clemont.
'Thanks Ash!' Clemont said and shook Ash's hand. Ash smirked and moved out the way. 'Finish your battle' Ash said calmly and stood behind Clemont. While Clemont battled Ash scanned the area and found several grunts hiding and waiting to attack. Ash and Greninja disappeared.
'Luxray use thunder fang' Clemont shouted. 'Use your horns to protect' the grunt shouted back. The fire Pokémon leaned in as it's horns were bitten. The grunt smiled for a second but his smirked vanished as Clemont laughed. 'Now your stuck!' Clemont laughed, 'Throw him Luxray' Clemont said. Luxray spun the houndoom around and released him sending him crashing into the wall. It whimpered and gingerly stood on all fours. 'Finish it with thunder shock' Clemont pressed his glasses as he witnessed Luxray engulf the opponent in sparks.
Houndoom whimpered and fell to the ground unconscious and motionless. Clemont turned to the grunt and saw him unconscious as well. 'What the?' Clemont said. Then Ash appeared next to him while Greninja appeared, hovering over the unconscious body.
'Where did you go?' Calem asked as he came out of hiding. Ash pointed at the other 6 grunts who were lying flat on the ground. 'Brilliant!' Calem exclaimed and patted Ash on the back. 'Ash!' Serena shouted from behind and hugged him. She then released and hugged Kaylin tightly and picked her up.
'You two were safe?' Serena asked looking for any injuries. 'We are perfectly fine' Ash said smiling as he didn't get injured for once. 'Well let's get the prisoner and head back to the hatch' Sawyer said. Everyone nodded and untied the refugee from the ropes. It was a girl the around the same age as the others.
She thanked them and looked at Ash. Her eyes turned red as she stared him down. Ash went into a trance. He opened his eyes and saw her standing in front of him but she looked older and more fragile. 'Um hello?' Ash called out. The girl stood still and stared at Ash. Ash started to walk towards her but stopped as she spoke.
'Ash Ketchum' the girl said. Her voice was deep and dead. 'The ultimate hero they say' She added. Ash seemed confused. 'What do you mean?' Ash said looking at her red eyes. 'You are the chosen one, and you will be the one to decide the fate of your loved ones and the entire world' she said her gaze locked on Ash.
'Your the prophecy speaker!' Ash said, 'that means!' Ash added but was cut off by the girl, 'yes the other two prisoner are my sister and brother' she said. The other two the appeared next to her. 'But why are you talking to me and not Alain' Ash asked. 'Because you are the chosen one' the male replied. Ash looked at him and saw he had blue eyes. 'So what will be my decision?' Ash asked hopefully.
'Your decision will prove worthy to either you or the enemy' the main spoke. 'You will make a decision' the male added. 'But lose the two loves of your life' the other female with yellow eyes spoke. The last words rang in his head countlessly. He kept thinking about Serena and Kaylin being the casualties.
'Don't assume who the deaths of your loved ones will be... Future... You never know' the trio spoke and disappeared from the trance. Ash wanted to ask more. Questions flooded his mind, 'who was going to die? What was my decision?' Ash kept thinking. He then felt a sharp pain in his head and escaped the trance.
'Ash wake up!' Serena was shouting. Calem smacked his head causing Ash to stir a bit. Serena then thought of an idea. She bent in and made contact with his lips. Ash's eyes shot straight open after the sensation. 'Ash are you okay?' Shauna asked. Sawyer and Serena helped him sit up. Sawyer studied Ash closely. 'That girl put you in a trance' Sawyer said looking at his red eyes. Ash nodded. Serena grew worried, 'what trance?' She asked nervously hoping what she didn't want to happen.
Serena sighed in relief as Ash explained who the girl was. 'So what did she say?' Clemont asked. Eyes were all fixed on Ash. 'The same prophecy as always' Ash said scratching the back of his head. He felt guilty not telling the whole truth but decided it would make them worry.
'Well we'll camp on the roof tonight' Ash said. Everyone looked at him at his strange decision. Ash just told them to follow. They wanted to know his thinking but decided to go with it as they did not trust this area one bit. Once they were on the roof Ash explained, 'this place is going to be searched by the grunts. They are after me so I know they will put more of them here' Ash said. They shivered at his words. 'Don't worry we will crush them!' Bonnie said lifting their spirits.

'Hey where did the prisoner go!' Miette shouted angrily. She looked at the grunts who just shrugged and looked afraid of her. 'My daddy is going to sack all of you!' She said and turned back to the group, 'and for you...' She looked up and saw Charizard using flamethrower. She screamed as she caught her self in flames.
'My dress!' She shouted angrily. 'What have you done!' She looked at Alain who was smirking at her. 'It was getting hot so I thought you'd want cooler clothes' he said pointing at her broken dress. Miette growled and was about to attack but Alain and his group disappeared from the scene. They were outside the building and were pretty sure they heard Miette scream.
'Wow she is pathetic' Paul said blinking slowly. 'You can say that again' Misty said rolling her eyes. They flew in the air when they spotted Gary at the top of the tower with Trevor and Tierno.
'Use seismic toss!' Trevor shouted. The mega charizard grabbed the Mightyena and swirled around in the air before hurting straight into the ground. Charizard landed back on his feet unharmed and hovered over the unconscious Pokémon. 'Raichu use thunderbolt and finish it off!' Tierno shouted. Raichu growled and gathered its energy. It then released the thunder attack on the staraptor. The flying type screamed in pain as it landed on the floor unconscious. The two grunts looked at their Pokémon and screamed before running off the edge of the roof.
'Blastoise hydro pump!' Gary shouted but before Blastoise could attack a flamethrower came and knocked its opponent into the grunt and fell of the building. Alain and the others descended onto the roof and got huge cheers. Gary stormed to Alain, 'hey I was about to murk that guy!' Gary said frustrated. 'Sorry!' Alain said sweat dropping. 'I could have achieved something in life for once' Gary said sadly.
'Gary shut up!' Misty said annoyed and squeezed his ear. 'Alright alright!' Gary said. Misty let go of his ear and gave him a death stare. 'Jeez man' Gary whimpered. 'Anyway, did you guys get the prisoner?' Iris asked. 'No they disappeared' Dawn replied. 'Same here they disappeared as well' Cilan replied.
'Any word from Ash?' Tierno looked at Alain. Alain shook his head. 'I'll ask' he said. His body started glowing blue. 'Ash?' He spoke in telepathy. 'Alain?' Ash replied. 'Did your prisoner disappear?' Alain asked, 'yes' Ash replied. 'Okay where are you guys?' Alain asked. 'On Top of our tower, the roof' Ash said. 'Okay see you' Alain said.
His body turned back into it's normal colour once he finished using the aura connection. 'So..?' May asked. 'The same with them' Alain said. 'Anyway we have to go to them' Alain added.
The groups got onto their flying types and flew over to the next tower. They spotted Ash and his group on the roof top. They descended next to them.
'Hey everyone alright here?' Cilan asked as he approached Ash and the others. 'Yeah we're good how about you lot' Calem asked. 'Yeah we're good' Gary said.
The gang started to chat amongst themselves as Ash and Alain stood next to each other on the edge. They looked over and saw the horizon. It was sunset soon. 'So Ash. What is it?' Alain asked. Ash sighed at first but gave him a detailed explanation of what happened the trance. Ash didn't know what to expect from Alain.
'I understand but don't believe them,' Alain said. Ash looked at him, 'why?' 'Because prophecies aren't always true.. They are just their to guide you not tell the exact future' Alain explained. 'So then what do we do then? What do I do?' Ash asked looking at the horizon.
'I always say. Create your own destiny. So in this case we will create our own destiny and show the bad guys who the boss is!' Alain said. He turned to Ash and held out his hand. 'Together?' Alain said. 'Together!' Ash said and grasped his hand firmly.

'What is it Lysnadre?' Giovanni asked. Lysandre turned to face Giovanni. 'What purpose do you have with the boy?' Lysandre asked intently. Giovanni grew tense. Anger was exerting out of him. 'You know! I want him dead!' Giovanni snapped, 'what's in it with you?' Giovanni said calming down.
'Well you said I can have one gift' Lysandre said and eyed Giovanni. Giovanni reluctantly nodded, 'yes only one!' 'Well I have made my mind up,' Lysandre said, 'I want the boy!' Giovanni looked at him in shock. 'You cannot keep him alive! He must be dead' Giovanni said his anger increasing. 'Don't make me break our promise!' Lysandre said. Giovanni started to sweat, a lump was in his throat. He tried to lunge at Giovanni but one of the grunts grabbed him.
'Well it's a pity now' Lysandre said looking at Giovanni. 'Take him to the basement!' Lysnadre commanded. The grunt nodded and dragged Giovanni off. 'This world will be mine. Team Flare will rule!' He said. He looked at a container, which contained a green figure inside. 'Ketchum will be mine!'
