Pov: Ash

We were walking throughout the town. There were multiple people murmuring and taking photos of all of us. As we walked through the streets, Ruby came to a stop.

"Oh my god…" She said.

"Hmm?" I looked at her.

She took off and ran to a crepes stand.

"I-I-It's beautiful!" Ruby said.

"Ruby you are so childish." Weiss said as she walked up to Ruby.

"Pleaaase. Can I? Huh? Huh? HUH?" Ruby ran up to me.

"You are a terrible influence on Summer." I said.

Ruby then gave me those silver puppy eyes.

"Okay okay, fine." I said.

"Yay!" Ruby said as she ran to the crepes stand.

I looked down and saw Summer was looking hungry.

"Okay." I said as I picked Summer up.

I walked over to the crepes stand and ordered two crepes alongside Ruby's three she already had in her hands. Weiss ordered two for her and Penny and Serena ordered their own. We walked over to the nearby tables and sat down.

"I am gonna have to train extra hours to burn this off." I said.

"Shut up and eat." Ruby said as she engulfed her crepe.

"Seriously, your metabolism is way out of order." Weiss said.

Ruby simply gave a smug smirk.

"I will be right back, I forgot to grab some napkins." Penny said as she walked away.

"So Weiss… you and Penny have been dating for a while now." Ruby smirked.

"Ruby… I don't like that face your making."

"Have you two considered moving in together?" I asked.

Weiss choked on her crepe.

"What?" I asked. "I moved in with Ruby before I even started dating her."

"Satoshi, there is a reason for that!" Weiss said.

"But have you talked about it?" Ruby asked.

"There has been a discussion or two about it." Weiss said.

"Hey guys, I'm back. What were you talking about?" Penny asked.

"Oh nothing. Weiss was just telling us about how she has a secret date planned for you." I said.

"What?! No I did not!" Weiss yelled.

We all chuckled at Weiss' pain.

"So where do you want to go for dinner?" Penny asked.

"I was thinking about this place called Mew's Cafe. It has coffee for Weiss and some sweets for Ruby." I said.

"Sweets?" Ruby asked immediately.

"Sounds like a plan. Why don't we go now?" Weiss asked.

After we all agreed, we walked over to the cafe.

Later

We walked into the cafe to see Salem enjoying a cup of coffee while talking to Professor Ozpin.

"Ah Satoshi, welcome. Come here." Ozpin said.

We walked over and sat next to Ozpin and Salem.

"We were just discussing the fight." Salem said.

"Again, that was incredible." Ruby said.

"Had it been a six v six, there would be no island left." Salem chuckled.

"I agree." I said.

"So what do you think of the tournament so far Satoshi?" Ozpin asked.

"I think… I have regained a lot of my memory but I think I still have a ways to go before all of my memory returns to me."

I saw Ruby look down. She seemed sad about something. Before I said anything, the waitress walked up with menus.

"Here you all go- wait! You're Satoshi Red."

"Yes I am." I said.

"I uh… the fight you had with- EEP!" The waitress fangirled when she saw Salem and I sitting at the same table.

"We are friends outside of the arena." Salem said.

"Oh my god, my little sister is going to freak! Can I get a photo?"

I looked at Salem, who nodded.

"Sure."

We posed and the girl took a selfie with her pokedex before walking away.

"As I was saying, in the time I have been here, a lot of my memory returned and some old friends have resurfaced and even my real parents." I said.

"Sounds like you are planning on staying." Ozpin said.

"No… I came here to get answers. So far, I have been getting answers. But I plan on going back to Vale once this is all over, win or lose." I said.

Ruby looked at me and smiled.

"Yawn. Let's get some drinks." Yang said.

"Okay." I said as we all ordered.

Later

Ruby and I walked into our room and got out of our fancy clothes.

"Ash… were you telling the truth?" Ruby asked.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Kanto is your home. Your friends are here and so are your parents. If you get all of your memories back, what if you decide to stay? What if you decide to leave? What if—" Ruby began to panic.

I walked up and pulled her in for a hug.

"Ruby, this place may have been where I was raised, but Vale is my true home. I have lived there longer than Kanto and I have more fond memories there than here. Sure my friends will be far away, but I would rather be in Vale with you and the others." I said.

Ruby chuckled.

"You're the best." Ruby said.

"I try from time to time."

"Alright get some rest." Ruby said.

We got into our pajamas and fell asleep for a brand new day.

The next morning

I woke up and got dressed before walking out of the room with my hoodie on. I walked into the Pokecenter to see who I will be fighting next and smirked.

"I hope you're ready for that rematch… Torchwick."

This is a short one. My apologies but I have been writing another story, an original story, and school papers. I plan to focus on this one for the next few days and hope to post a longer chapter next time. Cheers.
