vsizzel here and back with a chapter of Without Any Meaning (finally!). I do apologize for my extremely late update. I had this chapter done ages ago, but was busy with school and stuff. Also I was just extremely lazy to do anything...I'm really sorry!

Thank you for all the support you have given me and still give. I really appreciate all the review/alert/favorites and feedback. Really these alerts makes me want to continue writing my stories (even if I'm extremely lazy... I'll get to them eventually).

But here the next chapter, and hopefully I'll start updating my stories.

My beta I use for Pokemon is currently out so this story didn't get through him, but my friend offered to beta for me in his absence. Warning the grammar might not be the best.

Well I think that's all I have to say, just sorry and hopefully I can get off my lazy butt and start updating my stories. Hopefully this chapter won't disappoint and you enjoyed this chapter as much as the last.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon

Ash didn't know what to do. Who could blame him, since he was in front of a rather complex situation. In front of the door of his hotel room stood the four Champions, all of them looking at him, waiting for an answer.

How did this happen? Well, let's go back shall we?

Oh I forgot to mention, there are three beautiful girls behind him.

Flashback 2 hours back.

After the battle, Ash went to a small café to enjoy himself, giving himself a small lunch consisting of a chicken sandwich, a small cake, and apple juice while Pikachu had some ketchup…

"ASH!~" He heard three voices call out at him. He turned to the direction of the voices and before he could make out who they were, three figures crashed into him. This caused him to fall out of his chair and land on the ground with his sandwich ruined.

'My sandwich! My money! More importantly, my peace!' Ash mentally cried to himself. He looked down to see who it was that ruined his peace only to see three meshes of hair, each hair different from the other - the colors were green, pink, and red.

"Ash! You're here!"

"I missed you so much!"

"It's ok Ash, I'm here for you." Words came from the three, but he barely made out the words, since their faces were buried into him.

"Uhm…who are you?" Ash asked, confused. It's not every day that three people you don't know attack you. They looked up so that Ash could see them and his eyes met with theirs. They stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity - in truth it was only a minute or so.

"Uhm can yo-"Ash asked breaking the silent, but before he could finish he felt his body growing faint and disappeared, causing the girls to fall on the ground.

Quickly the three beauties got up and dusted themselves, all three of them having an angry look on their faces.

"Fucking Mewtwo," growled the pink headed girl.

"He took Ash away from me!" added the green headed girl.

"Let's get him! And when we do, let's kill him!" finished the red headed girl. They all nodded and vanished, ignoring the people around them who were spitting out their meal seeing three people suddenly vanish.

Ash reappeared back to his hotel room and promptly fell on the ground. Ash groaned in pain as he got up to fix himself.

"I'm starting to get tired of this," Ash grumbled to himself as he got up and brush some dust off himself.

"Then you should start behaving yourself," answered a voice Ash knew all too well, and truthfully was getting quite tired of hearing that certain voice.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Ash replied innocently.

"Cut the crap Ash. You know what I'm talking about." Mewtwo's eyes narrowed, making his point clear.

Ash sighed as he knew Mewtwo wouldn't fall for his cheap tricks to avoid things. "Truthfully I don't see the problem in it. You just want me to win, so why can't I sleep during a battle? All that matters is me winning," he explained to the Legendary Pokemon.

"The problem is that you're sleeping while battling. For someone who loves to battle I wouldn't expect you to fall asleep."

"That was a long time ago. Now I don't care. You know the only reason why I'm here is because of you."

"And because of me you will not sleep during battle. I do not want my student to be sleeping during a battle. It will make me look bad in the eyes of the other Legendary."

"Like I care," responded Ash. Suddenly, he was lifted into the air via Mewtwo's physic powers.

"You will not sleep, or else I'll-"

"Or else what?" said a somewhat angry woman's voice, which rudely interrupted Mewtwo. Mewtwo, who heard the voice, started sweating bullets and was hoping that whoever was behind him wasn't who he thought it was. Unluckily for him they were the people he didn't want to see. In fact, they were the three last people he wanted to see right now.

Ash, who somehow managed to turn his body in the air, turned to look at who it was and saw something that surprised him. In front of Mewtwo stood three beautiful women, each of which had different color hair - the colors being green, pink, and red - and the three of them were looking at Mewtwo with a cold gaze.

"So, Mewtwo, what were you going to say to Ash hmm?" asked the pink hair girl in an all too sweet voice, though it only made Mewtwo sweat more. Her eyes suddenly glowed blue and Ash felt Mewtwo's power stop, causing him to fall to the ground. Before he could hit the ground, though, he felt himself being carried to the bed via physic powers once again, where he was gently placed there. Ash took this opportunity to rest for a bit as the Legendary Pokemons argued around him, though he did hear Mewtwo crying for help and beating sounds behind him.

It was only a few seconds of hearing arguing voices around him before the peaceful feeling of sleep took him completely, though that only lasted a minute or so before he was rudely woken by the feeling of himself falling on the ground…once again. Ash, now awake, was glaring at Mewtwo who smirked in return.

"Mewtwo, what did you do that for?" called the green hair beauty in an angry voice.

"You wanted him to wake up, so this was the only way," was Mewtwo's answer before he moved to a wall and started leaning on it. Ash got himself up and walked over to the couch and sat on it, which happened to be across another couch that the girls were sitting on.

"You're probably wondering who we are," said the red hair beauty.

Ash remained silent since its half true. A small part of him was curious in who they were, while a major part simply didn't care as he assumed that since they knew Mewtwo then that was all there was to it; no need to involve him in it. But the small part won this battle and Ash started looking at the girls. A small blush crept onto his cheek as he saw their beauty. He may not care, but he knew a beautiful woman when he saw one, and these women were beyond any girls he's seen before.

As he continued to look at the girls, his eyes reached their eyes and he couldn't help but look shock.

"It can't be," he sort of gasped out, realizing who the three beauties were. "Mew, Celebi, Latias?" he continued, his voice weak. The three nodded when he called out their names, confirming his guess. "But how?"

Latias decided to be the one to explain. "Well, Arceus asked us if we wanted to be humans, and we said yes. So, he gave us human forms. In return, though, we don't have Pokemon forms anymore, but we get to keep most of our powers. Now we are one hundred percent human," she finished, letting Ash take in all the information. Ash took in the information rather well, seeing as his face remained the same, though there was a hint of confusion.

"But why would you give up being Pokemons and be human?" Ash asked, interested in knowing the answer.

"That's for us to know and you to find out," Celebi replied with a small smirk, seeing Ash sort of disappointed face. Before anyone could say more, there was a knock on his door. Ash turned to the door, wondering who it was. At the same time, he saw Mewtwo disappear, but the other legendaries remained.

Putting his cloak back on, Ash slowly walked to the door and opened it and his eyes widened after seeing who it was.

And that's where we are now.

"Uhmm… hello?" Ash greeted awkwardly, feeling the uncomfortable situation on him. The four Champions looked at him at first, then changed their view to the three Legendaries. The men gawked seeing the three beautiful women inside Red's room, while Cynthia couldn't help but be jealous of them and glared at them, which they ignored.

It took a while for the three male Champions to avert their eyes to Ash, but not without wondering how he had three beautiful women in his room. Cynthia, on the other hand, simply gave him a disproving look.

"Uhm Red who are they?" Lance asked, curiously. If his memory was correct, Red wasn't very popular with the people.

"Friends," Ash replied quickly in a tone that said 'no more questions.' The Champions seem to have gotten the message and quickly moved on.

"Hey Red we just came by to ask if you wanted to each lunch and hang out with us," said Lance before giving the girls behind him another glance. He couldn't help but blush seeing them.

"Well I actually already had lunch, so I'll probably pass," Ash replied as nicely as possible, trying not to hurt or disappoint them. Too bad one of the champion's didn't respect his answer and wouldn't take no for an answer.

"C'mon Red! Just one hangout so we get to know you. It wouldn't hurt you know," added Wallace, jumping into the conversation and hoping to get Ash to reconsider.

"I'm sorry, but I have to decline," replied Ash once again, hoping Wallace would stop.

"How about some tea? It's smoothing and calm. We can have a nice talk, you know, to get to know each other," continued Wallace. Ash was now getting annoyed. He wished Wallace would stop trying to persuade him to reconsider.

"I sai-"

'You best say yes, Ash,' yelled a voice in his head which sounded a lot like Mewtwo.

'Why do I have to… ?' Ash replied

'Just do it…or I'll swear to Arceus that you'll never sleep peacefully ever again.' Ash sighed in reply. 'Fine…' he answered back.

"Alright… I guess we can go out for a bit…" Ash said reluctantly. The three male Champions nodded in reply, satisfied with Ash's response. Cynthia was a little happy, though she didn't know why. She was annoyed/mad at Ash for the different females he had in his room.

"So Red, who are your friends?" Wallace asked, eyeing the beautiful women behind Red.

"Well they're…" Ash answered back, trying to find an answer without reveling to the Champions who they actually were.

"I'm Layla (Latias) and the other two are my friends, Chloe (Celebi) and Megan (Mew)," Latias answered for Ash. Ash turned to her and looked at her for a second before he turned back to face the Champions.

"Might I say, you three ladies look very lovely," Wallace said, trying to flirt with at least one of them. Lance, Steven and Cynthia sighed seeing Wallace flirting again, something they knew he always does to any females, especially the good looking ones. The only person he didn't flirt with was Cynthia, and that's because of the obvious. Actually, he did flirt with her years earlier when she just became Sinnoh's Champion, only for her to beat him to a bloody pulp. After that, he never tried flirting with her again.

"Why thank you," Celebi replied with a smile making the men blush, seeing such a beautiful smile.

"We have room for you, if you girls want to come," Steven said as politely as he could, trying his best not to blush. The three girls brightened up at the offer, seeing this as an opportunity for them to hang out with their Ash.

"Sure! We would love to come along, if it's fine with all of you," Mew replied.

"It's fine with me. How about you guys?" Lance asked, looking at the other Champions. They nodded, showing they were also fine with it. The three legendary Pokemons smiled, knowing they were going to be accompanying Ash.

"Let's get going. There's this amazing restaurant nearby," Steven said and started walking with Lance, Cynthia, and Ash following behind him.

"Well then, shall we ladies?" Wallace asked holding his hand out for at least one of them to grab it, like what usually happens. The three girls looked at him funny before running after Ash and grabbing onto both his arms. Latias and Mew grabbed his left arm and Celebi had his right arm to herself. The three legendary Pokemons turned around to see a gawking Wallace and all three of them stuck out their tongues at him.

Wallace sighed and followed everyone else while Cynthia couldn't help but glare at the three women hanging off Red's arm, she didn't know why but she just didn't like it when those girls are around Red. Something inside her wanted to rip them off his arms and have his arms wrapped around her and only her; his strong arms wrapped around her body, like lovers… 'Stop it!' she shouted at herself, stopping the thoughts from continuing any further. 'You have to focus on Ash, he needs us. You can't be looking at another guy, especially one as lame as him with his stupid cloak.'

They walked for ten minutes until they came to a restaurant called Legend Cuisine. It was a medium size restaurant and it was near the hotel. It also came with a Champion, Frontier, Gym Leader discount, so it was one of the few reasons why they chose this place compared to the others.

Everyone sat down and ordered what they wanted. There was this awkward silent while waiting for their food; no one wanted to talk since they didn't know what to say nor were they able to think of anything that will strike up a conversation with the mysterious trainer. The Legendaries didn't want to say anything. The only person they wanted to talk to was Ash, and that could wait till later. For now, they were satisfied with just looking at him with their physic powers so they somehow can stare at his handsome face. Ash, though, didn't mind the silence. If anything it was sort of peaceful, giving him the time to himself…sort of.

Unfortunately for Ash the food came, which meant a possible conversation starter.

And that's what happened.

After a minute or so of eating, Steven decided to break the silence.

"This steak is really good. What did you guys get?" Steven asked/complemented.

"Well, I got fried chicken with some fries," Lance replied, picking up a wing and starting to eat it. Everyone sweat dropped at how Lance was eating his chicken…He was completely devouring it. Not to mention the proportion he got - it filled a fourth of the rather large table.

"I got the lobster special," Wallace answered.

"Typical Wallace," Steven remarked, getting a small glare from the Champion before he went back his food.

"Well, I'm eating a normal hamburger," Cynthia said to Steven.

"How boring of you, Cynthia," Wallace commented.

Cynthia gave Wallace a half glare and said, "Just shut up and let me eat." Wallace shut up and turned his gaze to the other members.

"So how about you guys?" Wallace asked Ash and his companions. His eyes widened after seeing the sheer amount of food that was on Ash's side of the table. There was such a variety of food on the table that it practically took the other two-fourths of the table…They thought Lance wasn't human because of the amount of food he ate, but Red made him look like a kid!

"Food," Ash quickly replied before stuffing himself with food. His craving for food has not changed throughout the years.

"Same," the other three chimed and went back to eating their portions. The other three sweat dropped seeing the four eat, more specifically Red. They watched as food after food went into the cloak at a fast pace. They only knew one person who could outmatch Lance in eating and that person was Ash. They were pretty sure that Red could probably match Ash in an eating contest.

'Ash,' Cynthia thought sadly. Seeing this cloaked person, Red, reminded her so much of Ash, the man who she has spent the past few years trying to find, the man who stole her heart. Steven, who happened to have seen her sad expression, gave Cynthia a reassuring pat on the shoulder hoping to make her feel better.

After roughly thirty minutes, everyone finished eating and now they sat around the table with drinks. They took the time to calm their stomachs downs after a well stuff lunch, also taking the opportunity to get to know each other, mainly Red.

"So, Red, tell us about yourself," Lance asked, taking a sip of his drink.

"I'm twenty-two years old and a guy," Ash replied, giving them close to nothing about him other than his age.

'Twenty-two. He's as old as Ash,' Cynthia thought to herself.

"Anything else you'd like to tell us about yourself, like maybe your hobbies or your Pokemons?" Steven jumped in.

"I like to sleep and I use a variety of Pokemons," Ash answered. The Champions sweat dropped at barely learning anything from his answer.

"Why's that?" Cynthia asked curiously. Everyone turned their attention to her. She continued, "Why do you sleep all the time?"

"That's because there is nothing for me to do other than sleep," Ash replied. Something about his answer made her angry, though she couldn't explain why.

"What do you mean? There's always something to do," Cynthia spoke out in a slightly loud and angry voice.

"There's nothing for me to do," Ash said quietly, though everyone heard him. Everyone remained silent until someone decided to change the subject.

"What about you three?" Wallace spoke up.

"Well, we're not Pokemon trainers. We just came here to support As-… Red! We came to support Red," Latias spoke out for the group, quickly correcting herself before she revealed Ash's identity to the Champions. The Champions raised an eyebrow at the sudden correction, but paid no attention to it.

"I didn't know you had people to support you," Wallace commented. "And beautiful ones at that," He added with a grin.

"Neither did I…" Ash mumbled to himself.

'Ash, I'll always support you,' Celebi mentally said to him.

'Us, too,' Latias and Mew added, not wanting their friend/competition to gain an upper hand. Ash said nothing and went back to paying attention to the Champions.

He examined each of the Champions, seeing how much they've grown throughout the years.

Lance, even though he was in his late twenties, early thirties, looked pretty much the same from the last time he saw him. He still had his spiky red hair and still had the same wardrobe as before. The only thing different was that he was taller than before and buffer, if the muscles showing through the shirt was any indication.

Steven was around the same age as Lance, only a little bit older. Like Lance, he also looked the same, with the difference being his height. He wasn't buff like Lance, but Ash could tell he was fit. His hair was still the same and his clothing was similar to what he usually wore. He wore black slacks with formal, comfortable shoes while his upper clothing was a casual suit ware.

Wallace was a little younger than Lance and Steven. He could be considered an eye candy to the ladies, with all the girls flaunting over him. Not to mention his rather large fan club. He had the same style as he did the last time Ash saw him. He probably knew why, and it involves women. Why change if it works with the ladies? Wallace was pretty much the same as Ash last saw him. The only difference was that he grew a few inches. Ash noticed that he was the least fit compared to the other two Champions, since Lance and Steven traveled around, keeping their bodies fit, while Wallace focused more on his "art"…

Last was Cynthia, the Sinnoh Champion, youngest Champion ever, and one of the most beautiful women throughout the Pokemon world. Ash remembered the times he saw her; he was attracted to her. He thought she was the one of the most beautiful girls he's ever seen, and she still is. He was attracted to her beauty, though who could blame him. He was a growing boy going through puberty. Though he liked her looks, he was also attracted to how strong and independent she was. She's not like most girls he's seen throughout his life, always wanting attention, or can't do anything by themselves. Cynthia was different from those girls; she didn't want the attention. If anything she wanted to get away from it, and she knew how to take care of herself.

Ash quickly shook away his thoughts of the past and went back to "examining" Cynthia. He could tell she grew taller, being 5'9 almost 6'. She also grew in the chest area, developing from a C-cup to a low D-cup bust. She was still one of the most beautiful girls he's ever met. She still had the same hairstyle, with her one eye covered and long blond hair reaching to her calves. She wore the same outfit consisting of a black trench coat with a black undershirt, comfortable black slacks and black shoes.

He was brought out of his "examining" by a question he didn't want to hear.

"Why do you wear a cloak?" Ash turned to the person who asked, Cynthia. Ash didn't want to tell her, but the look on her face told him she wasn't going anywhere until he told her.

"I wear a cloak because I like to keep myself hidden," he answered, making her frown.

"Why keep yourself hidden?"

"I keep myself hidden so that no one knows who I am," Ash replied, hoping she would stop with the questions.

"Why don't you want people to know you?" she continued, wanting him to elaborate and giving her a chance to know him more. Ash remained silent, not wanting to say more.

"Did you do something bad and now have to hide yourself from someone? Or did something bad happen and you just want to forget everything, hiding yourself from the rest of the world?" Cynthia started, asking more questions and not paying any attention to the atmosphere of the room, which changed significantly. Ash flinched when he heard the last part, but remained silent, knowing how right she was. The male Champions tried making Cynthia stop her questions, as they started feeling awkward. The three girls looked at Ash with worry and glared at Cynthia, knowing she was bringing up bad memories for Ash.

Cynthia waited for her answer, oblivious to what she has caused. Her answer was silence from Red, making her slightly irritated. She was going to speak again, asking if Red heard everything she asked, but was interrupted by the man she was questioning.

"Don't worry about it," Ash spoke out in a mumble.

"What was that?" Cynthia asked, clearly not liking his response and wanting Red to repeat it.

"I said don't worry about it! What happened in my life is mine, so why don't you just fuck off!" he suddenly lashed out at her, making everyone present widen their eyes in shock. They didn't think Ash would be sensitive about the subject. Even the Legendaries were surprised. They knew it was a touchy subject with Ash, but they didn't think it was this bad.

'I must have overstepped my boundaries,' Cynthia thought to herself, realizing her mistake.

'Ash, please calm down,' Mew told Ash telepathically. Minutes later he did and took a deep sigh.

"I'm sorry," Cynthia told Ash.

"It's fine," Ash reassured.

"Sorry Red, for overstepping my boundaries."

"I said its fine. Really, you don't have to apologize. If anything I'm sorry for lashing out like that."

"It's not your fault. It's mine. I'm the only one who should be sorry." They continue to argue back and forth for another minute or so, much to the three Legendaries annoyance and the confusion of the male Champions.

"Now now you love birds, let's just say it's both your faults and leave it at that," Wallace commented, seeing no end to their argument. Cynthia blushed at the comment before yelling out "We're not love birds you fool!" and hit Wallace in the head.

"Fair enough," Ash commented, totally ignoring the comment Wallace just made about love birds.

"Is it ok if I ask you a question?" Ash asked Cynthia.

"Sure Red," She replied, happy that he spoke up.

"Why are you so interested in me?" he asked, making Cynthia's face grow a shade of red.

"W-w-what are you talking about?" she shuttered out, her face bright red, not expecting such a question.

"I'm asking why you are interested in me. You seem to want to know a lot about me. Why is that?" he elaborated, making Cynthia calm down. She was deciding whether she should tell him about Ash or not.

'Well, I guess I should since I did go overboard with the questions. Maybe he might know something about Ash,' Cynthia thought to herself.

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to," A voice said, breaking her out of her thought. Cynthia blinked a few times, realizing she was thinking too hard.

"Oh no it's fine. I was just thinking a bit," she replied, "about your question. The reason why I want to know so much is because you sort of remind me of someone."

"A guy wearing a cloak reminds you of someone?" Ash asked, a bit confused and amused.

"Well, no, but something about you reminds me of someone, someone I've been looking for, for a long time."

"Who might that person be?"

"You might know him, or maybe not, but his name is Ash Ketchum," Cynthia replied. Ash's eyes widen in shock under his hood. Cynthia has been looking for him? Why?

"Ash, I saw him once, a few years back," Ash told Cynthia, perking her attention.

"Really? Where?" she asked with hope. The other Champions also were all captivated by the subject at hand.

"I'm sorry, but he told me not to tell you," he told the Champions, disappointment written over their faces. Cynthia, though, had a face of sadness.

"I understand," Cynthia said sadly. Another chance of finding Ash gone... There was silence until everyone got back to talking about random things. Ash then got up from the table.

"Well, I'm going to go now. It was nice having this chat. See you next time," He told the Champions. They nodded in response and said their goodbyes.

"We have to be going, too," Celebi told the Champions.

"It was nice meeting you girls," Steven replied. They smiled in response.

"Why don't you stay longer, you know, hang out a bit?" Wallace asked, hoping for a yes.

"Sorry, but we really have to go now," Latias said and the three said their goodbyes and quickly left, much to Wallace's displeasure.

"Well, I guess we should leave as well," Lance said, calling the waiter over. "Can we get the bill?" The waiter nodded and left to get the bill. Seconds later, the waiter came back with a rather thick looking bill. The champions looked at it in shock. Steven took the bill and read the things on it.

"Wait, why is it so expensive?!" he asked the waiter.

"Your friend in the cloak that left ordered pretty much everything that was listed on the bill," the waiter replied.

"CURSE YOU RED!" the Champions yelled together. Needless to say, Red cleaned out the Champions paycheck for two weeks.

Back outside Ash was walking with the three Legendaries. He looked at the clock in the middle of the road, which read five o' clock. He didn't expect to stay for that long. Guess he got lost track of time. He turned his attention to the girls next to him.

"So do you three have a place to stay?" he asked.

"No we don't," Mew replied. Ash sighed.

"I guess you can stay with me then…" he told them and received three bone crushing hugs.

"Thank you thank you!" the three girls chimed, happy that Ash let them stay with him. It was like a dream come true, sleeping together with the one man you love.

"Well, why don't you go there early. I'll get dinner for us, though don't expect anything like lunch," he told them.

"It's ok. I'll eat anything as long as I eat it with you," Latias told him.

"Well, I'll see you soon," he said to them and walked into the food market area of the island. The three Legendaries disappeared back to Ash's hotel room.

The food market was a peaceful place at this time of the hour. It wasn't crowed, but it wasn't empty either. There were people looking around for food, much like what he was doing right now, and there was a woman performing a calm song.

Ash continued to walk through the streets, looking at the different food available. He stopped by a fruit stand that sold fruits at cheap prices. He bought three oranges, two apples, and ten strawberries. He then walked by a food stand and looked around. He saw that they sold meat, all kind of meat like chicken, beef, etc... You name it, they had it. Ash decided to buy dinner here and walked into the stand.

"Welcome, what can I help you with?" an old man asked, which Ash assumed was the stand owner.

"I was wondering if you had a dinner menu," Ash asked the man.

"Yes we do," he replied and gave Ash the dinner menu. "You eating dinner early today?" he asked, getting a nod from Ash. Ash continued to look at the menu and after a minute of looking he gave the menu back to the owner.

"You ready to order?" the owner asked.

"Yeah. I would like one steak combo, one duck special, one beef special, and one chicken combo," he told the owner. The owner nodded, but was wondering why Ash order so much. "I'm also getting dinner for three other people," Ash told him, as if he read his mind.

Thirty minutes later, the man was done and gave Ash the food. Ash gave the owner the money for the food. He thanked the man and left the stand, though couldn't help but drool over the smell of the food, which smelled really good.

Outside he looked at the name of the stand. It was called 'Legendary Meat'. He sweat dropped reading the name of the store.

'Does everything in this island have either Legend, or Legendary in the name?' he thought to himself before he started walking back to his hotel room.

While walking he felt like he forgot something. 'Oh yeah, drinks,' he told himself and looked around for a stand or vending machine that sold any drinks.

Fortunately for him there was a stand that specialized in drinks. He looked at the price and saw they sold at relatively cheap prices. He walked up to the stand with his bag of food.

"Hello," he greeted.

"Why hello," the worker, who was a teenage girl, replied.

"I would like one strawberry smoothie, one lychee smoothie, one honeydew smoothie, and a cola," Ash told the girl. She nodded and went to make the order. Minutes later she was done and had the drinks on a tray and bag for Ash.

"That will be 500 Pokedollars," she told him. Ash nodded and opened his wallet only to find out he only had 400 Pokedollars on him.

"Here's 400…" he said slowly giving her the money.

"You still need 100 more," she stated, waiting for the money.

"I don't have it…" he confessed.

"Then I guess you won't be getting the cola," she stated and was about to take the cola away before she was interrupted.

"Wait! I'll pay for the 100, It's on me," said a voice that sounded female.

"Thank you," the girl replied to the lady that gave her the money.

"Thank you, miss. I'll pay you back soon," Ash said to the lady, turning his head to the lady to see who it might be. What he saw shocked him. It was a beautiful woman with short lavender hair.

"No problem, really, I just happened to pass by. You don't have to pay me back. It's only 100 Pokedollars. I'm Sabrina by the way. What's your name?" Sabrina told Ash as they started to walk through a park that was empty, minus a few couples here and there.

"I'm Red," Ash told her politely.

"Are you sure that's your name?" she questioned.

"Yes, I'm sure. Why would I not be sure about my own name?" he asked, totally confused why Sabrina would say something like this. Unless…

"It's been a while, hasn't it?" she said.

"Sorry Miss Sabrina but I don't think we have ever met," he replied, really hoping that the small image he slipped that day wouldn't bite him in the ass.

"You know its rude talking to someone without showing your face," she stated.

"Sorry. I just don't want people to see my face," Ash admitted.

"Why's that?" she questioned.

"I'm ugly," he stated, making Sabrina face fault.

"Oh I bet you're far from ugly," She reassured.

"And how would you know?" he asked.

"I have my ways," she stated and her bracelets grew a bright green color. Before Ash could do anything the cloak covering his head started to move.

Eventually his cloak hood was off, showing his face to the world. Sabrina noticed his long untamed raven hair tied in a ponytail at the back. The top still had its spiky nature, but it was more tamed, with him having bangs covering his forehead. Then she saw his face and almost melted where she stood. He looked extremely handsome. Even with his hair, his face still seemed to shine through it all. His face, devoid of the baby fat he once had, now had a mature look to it, not that she was complaining. All and all, he was handsome, probably one of the most handsome man ever, if not the most, in her opinion. Then again, she might be a bit bias about it.

Then she looked at his eyes and couldn't help but be shocked. Her ruby colored eyes stared at his brown color ones. His beautiful eyes, once full of life, were now devoid of it. She had an idea how it happened and vowed to herself that she will bring back the life in Ash's eyes.

"I don't see why you would hide a face like that. You're quite handsome in my opinion," she said, happy to finally see the man she spent almost forever looking for.

"You should get your eyes checked. I'm quite an ugly person," he reassured, making her frown.

"Now you're just being too hard on yourself," she replied. "Though it has been a while, hasn't it?"

"I guess, though I would have liked to remain hidden," he replied.

"Ash," she said in a sad tone.

"So how did you find out?"

Well that's it for chapter 5. Hopefully it didn't disappoint, and was just as enjoyable as the next. Sorry if the chapter is a bit slow but that's how I'm planning out the story.

Well now that I'm updating again, hopefully I can start writing and posting again soon.

That's all I really have to say, if you have any questions or comments review or PM me.

That's all for now.

Until next time.
