Chapter 1: Saving Ash

Chapter 1: Saving Ash!

"Please don't die Ash", Misty pleads.

(FlashBack)

Everyone was gathered for the reunion. Ash was introducing his old friends and new friends to each other. Iris, Dawn, May, and Misty seemed to be getting along perfectly. Mostly because they were talking about how Ash is such a kid. This was to the displeasure of Ash, as he tried to argue that he was not a kid. Brock, Max, Tracey, and Cilan were all chatting about pokemon and their achievements. The pokemon of all the trainers were having fun chasing each other around, playing tag. Pikachu would ocassionally stop a lot, mostly to stare at Ash.

Meanwhile, in the trees, team rocket was plotting. Their boss still wanted Ash's pikachu. He said that it was extremely strong for a pikachu, even stronger than most raichus. If it evolves, it'll be even stronger. He'll have the strongest raichu in history. He told them to come back with pikachu or don't come back at all. So, their job was to get pikachu, get away, and then force it to evolve with a thunderstone. Afterwards, they'd hand it over to their boss.

"Once we get pikachu and make it evolve, we'll be rich", James whispers.

"I can already see it", Jessie states.

"Hush", Meowth whispers,"Let's move".

"Right", the other two agree.

Pikachu and the rest of the pokemon run over to Ash and everyone else for lunch. As they near their trainers, a net is launched from a tree and snags pikachu.

"Pikachu!" Ash shouts.

"Pika-pi!" Pikachu calls out.

"To protect the world from devastation", Jessie chants.

"To extend our reaches across the nations", James chants.

"To spread the faith of truth and love".

"To extend our reaches to the stars above".

"Not them again", Ash sighs.

"Jessie".

"James".

"Team rocket blast off at the speed of light".

"So surrender now or prepare to fight, fight, fight".

"Meowth that's right", Meowth states.

"Team Rocket", Misty growls.

"Give back pikachu", Ash orders.

"Sorry, we can't do that", Jessie tells him.

"Yeah, the boss really wants your pikachu", Meowth says.

"Pikachu Thuderbolt!" Ash shouts.

"Pika..." Pikachu starts.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you", Meowth tells Ash.

"And why not?" Ash asks him.

"Because we have this", James says as he pulls out a thunderstone, "one electric shock and your pikachu will be forced to evolve into a raichu".

"Pikachu stop!" Ash shouts.

"Pika-pi?" Pikachu asks.

"Charizard I choose you", Ash calls out.

Charizard flies in from the sky and immediately shoots a flame thrower at Meowth. Meowth dogdes it, but bumpes into James in the process. This causes him to drop the thunderstone.

"Now Pikachu!" Ash shouts.

"Pika-chu!" Pikachu shouts.

"The net is electricproof, that won't work", Meowtyh states.

"But are you?" Ash asks him.

At the same time lightening shoots out of the net and hits Meowthw, Jessie, and James. The attack came from Pikachu's tail slightly touching Meowthw. Team Rocket falls from the tree and Charizard grabs the net pikachu is in. He drops it and pikachu by Ash. Ash immediately opens the net to let pikachu out.

"Pika-pi!" Pikachu cheers.

"Glad to have you back buddy", Ash says.

"This isn't over yet", Brock tells them, "Look!"

Everyone looks up to see team rocket in their meowthw balloon. Meowthw is holding a cannon, aimed at pikachu. Thay all presumed it to be a net cannon and Ash pushes pikachu out of the way, as the cannon is fired. What they didn't know was that it was actually loaded with the thunderstone. If it had hit pikachu, it would have forced it to evolve. But it hits Ash instead. So, it passes straight through his chest, leaving a gapping hole in his chest.

"ASH!" Iris screams.

"Pipulp, BUBBLEBEAM!" Dawn yells.

"Onx, IRON TAIL" Brock oreders.

"Toadale, WATERGUN" Misty shouts angrily with taers in her eyes.

"Rrrrrrraaaaaaaaaggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh!" Charizard roars as he shoots a flamethrower at team rocket.

"Pika!" Pikachu shouts as it uses lightening bolt.

Team Rocket scream as all attacks hit them dead on. Fire and lightening combined, creating a very powerful attack. As well as the water attacks. All attacks hit Team Rocket head on. They are launched very far away.

"Looks like we're blasting off again", Meowth says with a sigh.

"Yeah, but I think we killed a twerp", James states with a hollow voice.

Jessie just remains silent with cold, unmoving, dead eyes. Neither her or Jmaes are killers. They would never kill, even if their job demanded it or their boss or them to directly himself, they'd never kill. Even Meowth wouldn't kill without a reason. (Only in self-defense.)

(FlashBack ends)

As soon as Team Rocket was gone, Max called an ambulance. Iris, May, and Cilam were by Ash trying to stop the bleeding. Pikachu was crying over Ash's body with Misty and Dwan. May was crying into Brock's chest, while Brock looked away from Ash. Tears fell from all of their eyes, including all of the pokemon. Ash was special to all of them, in some way, shape, or form. But the tears didn't heal him, not this time.

The ambulance arrived arrived minutes later and took everyone to the nearest hospital/pokemon center. When they gaot there, Ash was rushed into an emergency room immediately. His mom, professor Oak, and Gary (yes even Gary) were there wiating for them. Max had called and emfored them of what had happened to Ash. Then, officer Jenny came over to them, asking for details. They gladly gave her all the details on what happened and explained why it happened. Team Rocket was now on a wanted list. Now their just waiting for news on Ash's condition.

As soon as Ash's doctor stepped into the room, he was jumped by everyone. Question after question was poured on him. He motions for everyone to be quiet and settle down. He then motions for them to follow him into a seperate room. They room him into a roon three doors down from the waiting room. He closes the door and turns towards them. They all have a worried look on thier faces. "Looks like I'm only going to make it worse," he thinks to himself. With a sigh, he begins to tell them Ash's current condition.

"Is my son alright?" Ash's mom asks worriedly, interrupting him.

"Mrs. Ketchum, your son has lost a lot of blood. He's going to need a blood transplant or he'll die", the doctor tells them.

"I'm alright with that", she states.

"I don't think your son will be though".

"Why is that?" Misty asks.

"Because we'll need almost 99% of someone elses blood, which means that person will die".

Everyone gasps and almoast lose hope, but Brock steps forward.

"What if wall gave him some of our blood?" he asks.

"Your friend wold die before all of the transfusions were made", he tells them, "Besides even if that could work, I doubt all of you match his blood type (even if it is O type)".

Everyones' eyes become dar and swell up with tears. The doctor leaves the room to give them some time to mourn over Ash, before saying goodbye. Once he's gone, everyone breaks down and cries, and I mean everyone, so yes even Gary. Gary falls to his knees and tears run down his cheeks. He stares straight ahead with simi-lifeless eyes. Professor Oak hugs Ash's mom to his chest as she cries. He cries along with her with his head hanging down. Cilam holds his arm to his eyes as tears run down his face. Iris falls on her ass and openly sobs out loud. Dawn and May follow right behind her. Brock's eyes open for the first time from shock and he cries just like Cilam. Misty falls on her ass, legs spread out, and tears pourind down her face like a rain storm with dead eyes.

The one who reacts the most is pikachu. Pikachu freezes in place and it's eyes become lifeless. The color drains from its' fur and tears began to fill its' eyes. The tears run down run down its' face like a river turning into a waterfall. Then, lightening begins to spark around Pikachu. Pikachu begans to feel anger and sad. Anger because Team Rocket killed Ash and at itself because Ash will die because he saved it from evolving. Sad because Ash was going to die. Its' very first best friend was going to die, the first human she ever trusted was going to die and it was all her fault, yet she could do nothing about it. Sobs break free from pikachu and everyone turns to stare at her. She cries openly and loudly. Suddenly, pikachu clenches her jaw tightly together.

"Pikachu?" Misty ask with a hollow voice.

"Pikapi will not die", Pikachu sobs.

Everyone understood because they were at their lowest piont right now.

"Pikachu?" May asks.

"Pikapi will not die!" Pikachu shouts/sobs.

Pikachu rushes out of the room and down the hall. Everyone quickly follows right behind pikachu. Pikachu skids to a halt in front of Ash's room, 72B. She uses iron tail to break the door down. Misty and everyone stops right behind pikachu and freezes. In the room stands Arceus, MewTwo, Mew, Lugia (outside the window), Lucario, Celebi, shaymin, and Latias.

"What are you doing here?" May asks.

"We came here to Ash", Mew replies telepaticly.

"Huh,why?" Iris ask.

'Because Ash has helped us all out before, when he could have died', MewTwo replies.

"You'll save pikapi?" Pikachu asks.

"Yes we will Pikachu, but we'll need your help", Shaymin tells them telepatheticly.

"Pika?" Pikachu asks. (Everyone was starting to gain hope, so they couldn't understand pikachu anymore.)

"Wait, why pikachu?" Dawn asks.

'Because what we intend to try would kill any human, but as pokemon we have a better chance to survive', MewTwo explains.

"And that is?" Iris asks.

"If pikachu agrees..."

"Pika!"

'Since pikachu has agreed, we're going to almost evolve Pikachu'.

"Almost?" Brock asks.

'We will use the energy from the evolution to stabilize Ash. Then, pour our energy, charizard's as he has agreed to help, and pikachu's into Ash's body'.

"Will that save Ash?" Ash's mother asks them.

'Yes', Mew replies.

"Pika!" Pikachu orders.

'Okay, then let's begin', Latias says.

A thunderstone appears in MewTwo's hand (the one from earlier). He tosses it to pikachu and she catches it. It doesn't react immediately to her touch. Mew and MewTwo are using their powers to block it.

Pikachu runs towards Ash and hops onto the bed. She crawls on top of his chest and starts to spark with electricity. Pikachu starts to glow and a white light flows from pikachu and envopes Ash. At the same time the other pokemon flood Ash with their energy and Charizard's energy. Ash begans to glow brighter and brighter. Soon the light becomes to bright for everyone to look through and they all close their eyes. "Ash" Misty mentally pleads. Unknowingly, giving Ash half ofher own energy by doing so.

-(Ash's Thoughts)-

"Pikachu? Misty?" Ash thinks when he feel the electricity flow into him. When even more energy flows into him, he's at a lost for words. He doesn't know how, but he can tell who's energy it is that's flowing into him. "It feels...warm", he thinks

-(end)-

"It feels warm", everyone hears Ash mumble.

All heads shoot up and stare at him. The light starts to die down and eyeryone can see Ash clearly. His skin has all his color back and looks prefectly fine. The only thing differnt about him is his aura. It felt different from befrore,like something new was added to it. It was still caring and calm, but it now holds a sense of power. Ash's eyes open slowly, like he's waking him from a nap. He looks around the room and sees evryone surruonding his bed, including the pokemon. Only the pkemon, except pikachu, back up to give him some air.

"Hey everyone", he says innocently, "What's going on?"

And that's chapter one, hope you enjot it. Please review.
