Hello, and welcome to my latest story, Live Life to the Fullest! It starts in Jubilife City, but later will be in Unova, which i'm going to base off Spain. Why? You'll find out soon!

"Will you marry me?" Drew asked. Right now, it was his mom's fifty-sixth birthday. They were celeberating it at a fancy resturaunt, but right now, Drew and his grilfriend, May, were outside. His parents and May's parents were great friends, and partners in thier construction buisness.

"Are you serious?" May asked.

"Yes. I love you, why would I not be?" Drew replied as he slipped the ring on her finger. The two walked back to the resturaunt, only to be greeted by May's friend, Liza.

"Ohmygosh, that ring is soooo pretty!" Liza squealed.

"Thanks." May said.

"Drew, are you going on a bachelor trip before the wedding?" Liza asked.

"Yeah. In Unova, for three weeks. My childhood friends Ash and Gary are all also coming." Drew replied.

"You already planned your bachelor trip and we haven't been engaged for a full minute!" May joked.

"No, a couple years after college, Ash, Gary, and I made a pact that after graduation, we'd go to Unova. We'd each have to pick one adventure sport that all of us would have to do, but we wouldn't know which sport we picked untill it was time to do it. However, some things happened, and we never went to Unova. But, i'm sure they'll do all that for my bachelor trip." Drew explained.

"Well, at least let them know!" May said.

"Good idea!" Drew pulled out his phone and called his friends.

With Gary...

"Oh, we're going to Unova for your bachelor trip? Awesome! I'm in. Also, congrats on your engagement, and sorry I wasn't there for your mom's party. I was busy. Gotta go!" said Gary.

"Why do you want to go Unova so badly?" Asked Gary's mom, Samantha.

"Why are you eavesdropping?" Gary asked.

"I know your excited about the trip, but I also know you're going to see Samuel Oak." Samantha said.

Gary's real father, Samuel Oak, left his mom when she found out she was expecting Gary. Then, she re-married another guy, Dave, who Gary thought was his dad. Last year, however, he died, and Gary found his mom's diary, where she wrote all about Samuel leaving her, and Dave being Gary's step-dad. Ever since Gary found that out, he wanted to go to Unova to meet his real dad, which was something his mom was strictly against.

"So what if I do?" Gary asked. "He's my biological dad. I want to meet him."

"There's a reason why he left. Don't you think it was because he never wanted you?" Samantha asked.

"Don't you think you should let me live my life?" Gary asked. "I'm going to Unova on the next flight, and you won't stop me."

With Ash...

"Please, try to understand, Misty!" Ash said. Today was his grilfriend Misty's birthday, and a couple weeks ago he promised her that they would spend the day in Lake Verity. However, he had a very important meeting at work that day, and the meeting would last for the next couple hours. He had called her to tell her so, but instead of understanding like he expected her to, Misty got really mad.

"No, you try to understand, Ash! It's my birthday, and you promised that we'd go to Lake Verity!" Misty said.

"I know, but this meeting is more important. We can always go to the lake next month!" Ash said.

"But my birthday won't be next month! It'll be next year!" Misty said.

"So? Can't you understand the importance of my job?" Ash asked.

"Can't you understand the importance of a relationship?" Misty asked.

"What do you mean?" asked a confused Ash.

"You're a workaholic, Ash. Everyday, every night, it's always about money or your job. You never take time off for me, and when you were about, you let your workaholism take over. " Misty said.

"So?" Ash asked.

"I don't want to be in a relationship like this. It's over." And with that, Misty hung up.

"Girls." Ash muttered. Why couldn't she understand? Suddenly, his phone rang. Instead of Misty, it was Drew.

"Hey, Ash! What's up?" Drew asked.

"Work." Ash replied. He loved his job, which was being a financial broker.

"You are such a workaholic. Anyway, May and I are now engaged, and you, Gary and me are going to Unova on a bachelor trip! Remember the pact we made after graduation? The adventure sport one? We're doing that pact on this trip. So, are you coming or what?" Drew asked.

"No. One, if I do, that means i'll be taking three weeks of my job as a financial broker. Meaning, no pay. Two, I am NOT going if Gary will be there." Ash said.

"C'mon, dude, it's my bachelor trip! Please? Please? Please? Please? Please? Please? Ple-"

"Fine! I'll come. Where in Unova are we heading?" Ash asked.

"Humilau City." Drew replied.

"Heard there's awesome seafood there. I'm coming for sure, now!" Ash said.

"Thanks! It means a lot to me that you're coming, knowing Gary will be there, after the Serena thing...hey, you aren't still mad about that, are you?" Drew asked.

"I gotta go book my flight." With saying so, Ash hung up.

Good? Bad? Curious about what the Serena thing is? You'll find out in the next chapter or two. Please R&R!
