AN: Hello future readers and fellow fans, my name is Thechaosmaster and this is my first story, Now than, I have read over hundreds of fanfic stories and this will be my first time publishing one, so if you want to follow me go right a head. Now than this story will start out as close to cannon as possible then will slowly become more, chaotic, as time goes by, this story will have adventure, romance, drama, twists and turns and most importantly, chaos. Now than, enjoy the show.

Altomare, a large island city with water filled streets called canals, as with most places in this lovely world we call home, it has it's own myths and legends, this one is centered around two legendary siblings, the first is the older brother known as Latios and his little sister Latias. Now for those who don't know of the story it goes something like this, the city was a peaceful place all nice and quiet that was until an evil trainer came and used a Kabutops and an Aerodactyl to attack the city, and everyone that lived there lived in fear, until one day a Latios came and flooded the city and turned the streets into canals.

But the power he used to bring the water was to much for Latios, and he died, but in his place was a beautiful jewel called the Soul Dew, said to contain the spirit of Latios. But when he died he left behind his children a Latias and a Latios, who lived as orphans, left in care of two humans, Bianca (from the movie, not Unova.) and her grandfather Lorenzo.

Years later, two evil trainers came and stole Latios and the Soul Dew, to power a machine called the Defense Mechanism of Altomare or the DMA. The two trainers were part of Team Rocket, these trainers were Annie and Oakley, and they also tried and take Latias as well, but she got away. Then Latias went to Ash who, had played with the siblings earlier that day and then with her, Ash and Pikachu, they grabbed a gonadal and used it to get to the museum, but they had hit a roadblock, or should I say, a roadblock hit them. They were taken by surprise when the resurrected Aerodactyl attacked them. But they were able to get away on one of the water chariots, and was able to lose the prehistoric flying pokèmon in the taller building's. But when you lose one prehistoric pokèmon you end up having to deal with another one.

They were forced to get away from the Kabutops next, but thankfully, Ash was not alone with this rescue miussion, for Brock and Misty were able to send their pokèmon to help Ash, from Brock, he sent hius Crobat, and with Misty, she sent her Politoed, and Corsola, and together they were able to dispose of the Kabutops. Then when Ash, Pikachu and Latias, they got inside of the museum nnd saw that the DMA was malfunctioning, and together with Bianca, Lorenzo, Latias, and Pikachu Ash was able to stop the rockets plan. But even though the rockets were stopped, the Soul Dew was unfortunately destroyed, and the water was retreating only to come back as a giant wave. Both Latios and Latias, seeing no other option, charged at the tsunami and glowed in a bright blue aura, and destroyed the wave. But it costed Latios's life and he became the new Soul Dew, just as his father did years ago. After all the chaos ended, the new Soul Dew was placed where the old one was, on a pedestal, located in the secret garden. Now on the day that Ash was leaving, Latias, in her Bianca disguise, grabbed a picture she asked Bianca to make for her and gave it to Ash as a final goodbye gift, as well as another gift of appreciation, a kiss on his cheek. Now years later, Latias has been keeping an eye on Altomare and waiting for the day that Ash returns for a visit and maybe she can finally tell him how she feels about him.

Its a quiet day in Altomare where we see a certain red and white eon dragoness, all excited and flying around happily in the secret garden of Altomare. Who is this dragoness? Why, this dragoness is none other than our good old friend, Latias. The reason why Latias is excited, is because she just got word from her long time best friend, Bianca, saying that Ash will be coming to visit after winning the Kalos league a few days ago, and Ash bought eleven tickets to Altomare. So Ash invited his of his friends that he met throughout his journeys across the regions such as, Misty, Brock, May, Max, along with Dawn, not to forget Cilan, Iris, and finally Clement, Bonnie, and Serena. Ash will of course be bringing his best friend and starter Pokémon, Pikachu, they will be arriving in Altomare sometime the day after tomorrow.

After Latias had finally calmed down, she went to the swing where, she first showed her true form to Ash, who at the time could only reply by falling face first on cement. While Latias was thinking, she was interrupted by Lorenzo. "So Latias, are you ready to see Ash again?"

Latias was surprised when Lorenzo came out of nowhere but then replied. 'Oh Lorenzo, I didn't see you there. And yes, I just cannot believe that after eight years, Ash is coming back! I guess I'm a little nervous. Bianca said that Ash has made a lot more friends since the last time they were here.' Latias said using telepathy (she had learned a few years ago to impress Ash once he came back, and now he is.)

Then Latias had a worried look appear on her face and she tried to hide it, but failed. Lorenzo noticed and asked, "You're worried that if you showed Ash that you love him, that Ash won't love you back, aren't you?" Lorenzo said while Latias became more nervous, ever since she saw Ash during the Tore De Altomare race eight years ago, she has developed a crush towards the oblivious trainer. Maybe she will finally get the chance to tell him how she feels. But she fears that he won't feel the same about her.

The whole gang that has ever met and traveled with Ash (minus Tracy Sketchit that is) have all met up at Pallet Town getting ready for their boat trip to their vacation. After Ash's conquer of the Kalos league he called everyone who he has traveled with over the eight years of adventuring. Bonnie and Max became fast friends when they met each other after Ash called them on their return trip to Pallet town. Dawn, Misty, May, Iris, and Serena got along quite well. Brock, Cilan, and Clement were discussing different food recipes, and different Gym strategies, along with Ash's 'Unique' battle strategy's and wins. After a few minutes of people talking to each other, Ash started to explain the plan, even though Misty, Brock and Pikachu knew the real reason on why they were going to Altomare but Ash told them that once they get there he will tell the others the real reason why when he felt like it was time.

But until then he told them to keep quite. "Alright everyone," Ash started. "today we are starting our trip to Altomare, and I know that we have all just gotten here but, when need to get there before the boat leaves. Now then the reason why we are going to Altomare is because the Tour De Altomare is taking place there. And also, I felt that we could all use a vacation from all the world threatening events that has happened over the years, and I wanted all of us to get to relax with friends. Now then for those who don't know what the Tour De Altomare is about, it is a water chariot race. Meaning you can use one water type Pokémon to pull a water boat throughout the city, and the winner gets this glass medallion that tells the story of the town.

The story of the town is that, when the town was beginning a evil trainer taught two fossil Pokémon, a Kabutops and an Aerodactyl, to attack people. And that evil trainer then used them destroy the town. Then Latios came and brought water to the town flooding it and drowning the evil Pokémon, and turning their streets into canals. Thus naming the city 'Altomare' which means high seas. But the story I was told by Lorenzo, who is a caretaker there and a gondola maker, was that when Latios brought water to the town, he used up to much power and died but in his place was a beautiful jewel called the soul dew. But when Latios died his children became orphans the older brother was a Latios and the younger sister is a Latias." Ash said.

Just then Max asked "What do you mean the brothers name WAS a Latios, Ash ?"

Everyone looked at him and was surprised except for Misty and Brock who knew why he was like this, it looked like he was holding back some tears, then Misty and Brock went to support him then Ash said, "I'm afraid, that I cannot tell you at the moment, but once we get to Altomare and I feel like you should know what I am talking about then, I will tell you the rest. Okay?" Then everyone nodded, then Ash spoke up with his usual energetic attitude. "Alright then, lets get going." And with that, Ash and friends said their goodbyes to Ash's mother, Delia and Prof. Oak. Delia was a little sad that she couldn't come but remembered that this was the relaxation that Ash and his friends needed. But before Ash left he went up to his room, and got a picture of him and Pikachu that he got the last time he was in Altomare. Ash look at the picture and smiled.

'I'll see you soon, Latias' Ash thought to himself Pikachu knew was that was. "You miss her, don't you Ash?" Pikachu asked Ash. It was about a month ago that Ash was given the ability to understand Pokémon by Arceus, after all the work Ash has done, and for saving the world for like, the millionth time. This process is called "Active awakening." "Yeah I miss her alright buddy, I just hope she's doing okay it has been at least eight years since that day but it feels like it happened just yesterday. I wonder how she's doing?" Ash asked, then Pikachu said, "Well, we won't know till we get there." Ash just nodded and with that, the group of friends headed to the ferry near Cherrygrove city. And then everyone got on the boat.

"I can't believe we are heading to the city where, The Eon dragons live." Max said, while Ash, Pikachu , Misty and Brock had sad looks on their faces, but no one had noticed. Other then that it was a relaxing boat ride to Altomare. With no trouble no no danger, and no life threatening events happening, it was a peaceful ride.
