A/N: I know that last chapter was a bit of a dick move but like I said, it will play a role later (Mostly this chapter and the one after). Also, I changed the way I write Pokémon dialogue now, Pokémon speech will be in brackets only. Anyways, on to this chapter

Previously, on Ash's dad returns

"Fuck this" I say before I knock Brock out with an angered punch and move on to the living room before I'm stopped by Pikachu
"Pika pika PikaPi (Back off Ash)"
"Come on Pikachu, you were there"
"Pika pi pikachu chu (I was and you didn't even try in there)"
"I didn't want it to have to come to this" I say under my breath as I pull out a pokeball with a lightning bolt on it
"Pika, PIkaPI? (Wait, Ash?)" Pikachu says before he is engulfed in a red light and later sucked into the pokeball
"Now we can move on" I say to Jackson as we head into the living room
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO ASH?!"
"Mum, listen to me for a second"
"YOU ARE JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER"
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!"
"I SAID, 'YOU ARE JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER'"
"Say that one more time, see what happens" I say dangerously to mum
"YOU ARE YOUR FATHER!"
"YOU KNOW WHAT?! FUCK YOU! FUCK THIS HOUSE! FUCK THIS TOWN! FUCK THIS REGION! I'm leaving" I say as I storm off to my room to get my backpack, some clothes and my pokeballs before I head back to the living room
"Don't cry, it's pathetic. Both of you" I say to Misty and mum before I leave the house, never to return

And now, it continues (Ash's POV, Viridian forest outskirts)

"Come on out Pikachu" I say throwing Pikachu's pokeball into the air
"(WHAT THE HELL ASH?!)"
"Listen Pikachu. I need to know, do want to continue on with me or do you want to stay with Misty?"
"(You)"
"Really?"
"(Fuck no)"
"Whatever she told you was a lie"
"(Bullshit)"
"What did she tell you anyway?"
"(You tried to rape her)"
"WHAT?! You're serious?"
"(Dead serious Ash)"
"When was this?"
"(Last month)"
"Are you fucking serious Pikachu? Think about all that we've been through together. I mean, you've known me since I was ten and you know I'd never even try anything like that"
"(There's too much evidence against you Ash. I wish I could believe you but I can't)"
"You can believe me Pikachu, you've been with me for 7 years"
"(Prove it)"
"Misty only told you this after I told her she couldn't seduce me"
"(Yeah, and?)"
"She told you it happened a month ago"
"(And?)"
"We weren't even together a month ago"
"(That's even worse)"
"Are you fucking kidding me?"
"(No, I'm not. And, I think I should leave)"
"What?"
"(I don't want to travel with you anymore, I don't a rapist trainer)"
"I NEVER DID THAT!"
"(I don't believe you)"
"Fine, leave. Go on"
"(Ash)"
"GO ON, GET OUT OF MY SIGHT! AND NEVER COME BACK!" I yell as I watch Pikachu begin to walk away before he looks over his left shoulder
"(I'm sorry)" Pikachu says before he runs off into the direction of my house, tears in his eyes

- 4 hours later -

"Hey nurse Joy" I ask in a fake cheery voice
"Hello Ash. What can I do for you?"
"Can you heal up my Pokémon?"
"Of course. Hey, where's Pikachu?"
"We had a bit of a misunderstanding" I say in a saddened tone
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"I'd rather not"
"OK Ash, I'll be back in a few minutes"
"Thanks" I say absent-mindedly as she walks off with my Pokémon

- Ketchum residence, 1 hour after Ash's outburst, Misty's POV -

"I'll be fine Delia. Where's Ash?" I ask but regret as Delia bursts into tears
"He's…gone"
"Gone? What do you mean?"
"You didn't hear him?"
"No, I didn't"
"Basically, he left"
"He left? How?"
"Abruptly" Brock says joining the conversation, rubbing his jaw
"What happened to you?"
"Ash"
"He did that?"
"Knocked me out cold"
"Where's Pikachu?"
"Ash put him back in his pokeball" Delia tells me
"Seriously?"
"Yes. I guess he didn't like that we knew he tried to rape you"
"Oh yeah, that"
"It's OK though, he's gone…for good" Delia says still crying before Pikachu charges into the house through the open door
"Pikachu?" I ask as Pikachu runs up into Ash's room

- Ash's POV, Viridian Pokémon centre -

"Here you go Ash, your Pokémon are in top condition"
"Thanks Nurse Joy, I'll see you around"
"Bye Ash, take care" Nurse Joy says to me as I exit the centre with my Pokémon

"Charizard" I say without much emotion as I release him from his ball
"(Yeah?)"
"I need you to fly me somewhere"
"(Where?)"
"Anywhere but here"
"(What did you do? And where's Pikachu?)"
"I didn't do anything!" I shout
"(Where's Pikachu?)"
"He chose to leave… for good"
"(WHAT?!)"
"Yeah"
"(What the hell did you do?)"
"I.. Misty was trying to get me to confess something and I told her that trying to seduce me wouldn't work, next thing I know, I'm being accused of rape, by own mother"
"(When was this?)"
"Maybe 5 hours ago"
"(Where are we going?)"
"Just start flying, I've got some calls to make" I say climbing onto Charizards back before he takes off into the sky
"(Pikachu believed that lie too?)"
"He believed it alright, 7 years and he just leaves"
"(Any idea where you want to go?)"
"Away from Kanto" I say looking down at the worst possible moment, I see the same lake that Misty fished me out of 7 years ago
(Didn't you say you were going to call people?)"
"Thanks Charizard" I say pulling out my phone before dialling

"Hello?" a cheery voice on the other end asks
"Hey May"
"Ash? What the hell do you want?" she says to me, voice full of hate
"I was wondering if I could stay at your place for a few days?"
"Fuck you" May says ending the call
"I guess the Hoenn region is a no-go"
"(Where next?)"
"Sinnoh of course" I say dialling another number

"Ash?"
"Hey dawn"
"Why are you calling me?" Dawn ask in a suspicious tone
"I was wondering if I could stay at your place for a few days"
"So you can rape me too?" Dawn says in a disgusted tone before I hang up the phone
"Fucking hell Misty"
"(Another no-go?)"
"You guess it buddy"

"Hello?"
"Cilan, Iris, how are you guys?"
"YOU LITTLE RAPING SHIT! IF I EVER-" Iris says before I cut her off by ending the call
"(Same result?)"
"Yep. We've got to stay in Kanto I guess"
"(Where do you want to go?)"
"Mt Silver"
"(ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!)"
"No Charizard, it'll be good"
"(How about Fuchsia city instead?)"
"No"
"(Celadon?)"
"Fuchsia city I guess isn't too bad"
"(Alright)" Charizard says to me before he banks right and heads towards Fuchsia city

- Ketchum residence, Misty's POV -

"Brock, stay with Delia, I'll talk to Pikachu" I say before walking up the stairs to Ash's room
"Hey Pikachu"
"(What do you want?)"
"Why are you crying?"
"(Was it true? Did Ash try to, you know?)"
"Where is Ash?"
"(Was it true?)"
"No"
"(Why would you make a lie like that?)"
"I was angry and hurt"
"(I broke Ash's heart. The first person to ever show me kindness, to show me love, to care about me, to always be there for me when I needed it, and I wasn't there for him when he needed me the most)"
"I know how you feel Pikachu"
"(You have no idea how I feel!)"
"I have an idea"
"(He was pleading with me to believe him, I could see it in his eyes that he was being honest with me and I still abandoned him)"
"Why?"
"(Because what you said sounded plausible enough to be real)"
"But you said that you saw it in his eyes"
"(I also saw the innocent child I have known for 7 years in those same eyes, it made me believe he was lying)"
"I'm sorry Pikachu"
"Don't just be sorry to him Misty, be sorry to everyone"
"Brock?!"
"Yes, now, you will call whoever it was you called earlier, you will ask them if they've seen or heard from Ash and you will tell them that you lied"
"But Brock"
"Starting with Delia"

Not a whole lot in this chapter. Also, I AM SO VERY SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING/POSTING IN A LOOOOONG TIME. Last year of school and there was a tonne of work to get done and I've finally created some kind of buffer so expect updates back to weekly
