Hey everyone! Let be the first one to welcome all of you to my brand new betrayal fanfiction! If you all have not read my last fanfiction that specifically outlined an "Ash Betrayed" style, please go read it! It's called The Betrayed Rises. I'll admit, it is very choppy. However, that was my writing style four years ago, and I believe it's greatly improved. Whether I show it is your opinion I suppose.

So I did a tally of what story name you all wanted, and The Chosen One's Wrath won by a landslide. I did also look up the name to make sure it wasn't used… naturally, there was one called "Wrath of the Chosen One". However, this name still won by over double digit votes, so we're rolling with this one. This is, as it was in my last story, subject to change as anything is possible.

Another thing I'll talk about here is the pairing situation. As you all can probably see by the information, this is an Ash x May fanfiction. I don't really know what ya'll wanted to be totally honest. At first, it was at least 90% of this fanbase on the Team Lillie train. Now, after I eliminated Anabel and Iris as Ash's potential pairings, everyone randomly hopped on the Team May train. Okayyyyyyy? Don't really know what changed in such short time that made ya'll turn your backs on Lillie, but that's okay. The Alolan girls will be used in this story, but none will be romantically involved with Ash.

The story will be pure Advanceshipping, one of the more underused shipping's in my opinion, but one of the best. I won't reveal the traitors until you actually read the story. I will, however, say this: Everyone in the Alola region is an ALLY to Ash. You'll have to read to figure out their roles, but Ash's best friend and Ally is not an OC like in my last fanfiction (The LOS Chronicles).

Nonetheless, there are OC's in this fanfiction. Ash is very powerful in this fanfiction as well, but there is not going to be any aura involved. Red Satoshi is not involved. I am trying to make this fanfiction as best I can based on the will of the community, because everything I type is for you all! This fanfiction, I spent a lot of time thinking about and preparing, so I really do hope you enjoy it!

As usual guys, if you all have anything to say to me, please let me know! I always look over the comments, though I always don't respond to them. Usually, if you ask me an outright question, I can always directly respond to it. I check fanfiction email usually bi-daily, sometimes more. Feel free to review/PM me if you all have anything to say! Constructive Criticism always accepted .

The first chapter, ironically, will not be a flashback. I expect later chapters for that. It will make sense in time about everything that is going on.

I'll say a few more things here about the story to set some things straight. The story begins right off after Ash has finished off the Kalos region. In other words, he has NOT left for Alola. If you expect Ash to keep all his Pokémon, you're about to be sadly disappointed. Why do you ask? You'll need to read for that. The "Four Move" rule is in effect at all times. No exceptions there. If you haven't watched Pokémon Sun and Moon (Alola Region Series), you're going to be very confused by some of these Pokémon, but not all of them. The story is also going to be rated T, not M. Every story I've done prior to this has been M, but I've decided to try and take it down a notch and see what happens. There will be tiny bits of fluff to keep all you Advanceshippers at bay, but there are no lemons in this story (Unless I change it). Updates for this story come out every week.

One final thing to hit: PLEASE FOLLOW AND FAVORITE THE STORY! It would mean a lot to me guys, so show your support! Thanks guys!

Enjoy Everyone! Much Love!

For the First Time… LegionZ Presents… The Chosen One's Wrath… Chapter 1

Indigo Plateau…

On one sunny afternoon in the Johto Region's Pokémon League, everyone was bustling or glued to a television screen. Today, there was a battle occurring like no other. There had been a trainer who had somehow managed to get through all of the elite four in Johto, and was now vying for the title of Grand Champion. Of course, the battle was a sold-out affair. The moment that the news had hit the public that someone was actually trying to take control of the champion seat caught the world by storm.

Everyone was talking about the impending battle as though it would be the last thing everyone would ever talk about. There was so much hype around the matchup that it was not only being televised nationally, but worldwide. There was a legitimate belief that the challenger could knock off the champion, and for that much, everyone was flocking to watch this monumental battle.

The hours ticked away before the battle, and by that time, people were tired of waiting. They wanted action, and there was no time left to wait.

Two hours had passed since the beginning of the introductions before the battle. The crowd was roaring as the Pokémon did battle on the battlefield below. The atmosphere was intoxicating, primed with the adrenaline of the occurring battle. On one side stood a young trainer that couldn't be more than 11. He had dark black hair and had a determination in his eyes that could barely rival anyone. On the other side, stood a young man with spiky red hair. His cape stood bellowing in the wind as he prepared to finish the battle.

The battle was coming down to the wire, however, there was no dramatic finish to be seen. For those who had been hoping for the colossal upset, they were all sadly disappointed. After defeating the elite four, the challenger had been stopped cold by the champion, and was now on the brink of elimination. Trailing 5-2, he needed a small miracle to win. He cried out.

"Elektross, use Thunder!" As the Unova-Native Pokémon began charging up the attack, the champion called out his move. "Finish this! Use Draco Meteor!" The two attacks then collided, created a massive explosion on the field. The challenger had lost his focus, but the champion had not. "Now. Finish it with Fire Punch Dragonite!"

Through the smoke came a speeding figure: the champion's most trust partner. A loud explosion covered the field once more, and when the smoke cleared, Elektross was on the ground unmoving, signaling the end of the battle. The crowd exploded into roars as the referee made the declaration. "Elektross is unable to battle, Dragonite wins! And therefore, the winner of the championship matchup goes to the defending champion of the Indigo League, LANCE!"

The crowd was cheering his name, to the man who had ruled their fair regions for so many years. Lance thanked his Pokémon profusely for its effort, then walked to the center of the stage, where his opponent was waiting for him. The boy smiled. "Sir, thank you so much for the battle, I had a lot of fun! We need to battle again someday!"

Lance let a smile creep onto his face. He couldn't help but admire the cheerfulness of the young man. He spoke with a smile, "Yes, we shall indeed. Thank you for this battle, and may we meet again." The two shook hands and cameras from nearby reporters began flashing rapidly. Lance gave one last grin and nodded to the boy and said. "Until we meet again… Trex." He then turned and called out his Charizard, who had not received any battle time against Trex, and flew off into the setting sun.

Later that Night…

Lance collapsed on his couch inside his royal chamber. He was positively drained. He was beyond blessed to know that the public and formal interviews with the media about the battle were not until tomorrow, because he seriously just wanted a moment or two to breathe and think it out. He flicked on the television with all of his Pokémon still resting peacefully nearby and relaxed further. The first thing that appeared was a reporter talking about, what else, his battle with Trex.

Lance rubbed his temples soothingly, Trex truly had some incredible battling skills, he had gotten fortunate to nail him so hard in the championship match. In all honesty, there had been a nagging thought in the back of his mind that told him he was destined to lose to him. But Lance knew that Trex, as powerful as he was, was not the one destined to hand him his first loss as a champion.

He was turned from the thoughts when the information bar beneath the reporter lit up in bright letters saying:

"LANCE IS… UNDENIABLY… THE MOST POWERFUL TRAINER IN THE WORLD."

Lance chuckled softly and shook his head. If only the world knew the truth…

That gave him a thought. Curiosity getting the better of him, he took out his Pokégear and called someone that he had begun to talk to quite a bit more as of recently. It rung softly for a few moments until he heard someone on the other side say.

"Hello?"

Lance smiled lightly. "Hello Zandra… did he watch it?"

"What do you think? Of course he did. He was just as pumped up as I can ever remember seeing him. You really oughta pay him a little visit out here one of these days…" the girl on the line said.

Lance chuckled. "I'll see him soon, after all, Charles called for that meeting. I'll end up seeing him there."

"Still though, I wouldn't mind seeing you either. I won't be at that meeting… don't you want to see me too?" the girl teased.

He felt his cheeks heat up a little and then replied as calmly as he could. "How people call you the ruthless is beyond me, your name should be the tease."

"Hah, wouldn't you like that to be the case? But in all seriousness, everyone out here wants to see you sometime soon, not just me."

Lance smiled and got up to stare out the window. The night sky was beautiful in Johto, but where she was, it was even more amazing. He knew it was going to be amazing seeing her again, but he was more excited to see him again. It had been quite a few months now, and he was looking forward to seeing his good friend.

"I'll see you all soon. Tell him I said hi, later Zan."

"Catch you."

The line was cut off, and Lance was left to ponder in his own thoughts. He recalled the incident that had brought them close enough to consider him a brother to Lance. However, Lance shuddered at the memory. As well as it turned out in the end, the damage had been done, both physically and mentally. It was nearly impossible to open up to for anyone because the incident was so horrific and sad. He could only imagine the pain his close friend had gone through. With that thought, he sat back down on the couch, lost in thought.

How was he doing after the incident? Sure, it had been years, but it left his scarred mentally and physically. Of course, that hadn't even been the entire situation. The guy was abandoned by his girlfriend, tossed into a natural hazard, betrayed by his so called friends, lost the majority of his Pokémon, and had his body scarred in just a week's time. One. Week. How does anyone even recover from that?

Lance knew that had the incident happened to him, he likely wouldn't have survived it. It still made him wonder how he was doing, but most of all, he wondered just how powerful his friend had become, for they had never battled, but, for the position that his friend was in, no ordinary trainer could've ever gotten in the spot.

After all, how many people do you meet will ever say they were the Champion of the Alola Region?

Alola Region…

It was a beautiful sunny afternoon in the Alola Region. The sun was shining, people were bustling up and down the roads, Pokémon were playing with their trainers… everything was at peace. Across the ocean a fabulous distance, there was Aether Paradise. There, many Pokémon were healing, training, and preparing to face their world after being saved by a group of people that called themselves the Ultra Guardians.

It also just so happened to be in control of a woman named Lusamine. This woman had devoted her life to trying to see creatures named Ultra Beasts up close. Ultra Beasts were like Pokémon, except they had strength that rivaled legendries and were unseen to the human eyes, for the most part. However, after a close call that nearly resulted in her losing her life along with her daughter, she decided that these Ultra Beasts were not meant to be on their fair planet. Because of this, she devoted herself to protecting Alola by capturing Ultra Beasts that would enter their world…

… and then send them back to their world. This way, the peace was kept between Ultra Beasts and those in the Alola Region and Pokémon world. However, she couldn't have done it without the assistance of the Ultra Guardians. Though it seemed completely odd for those who didn't know the group, it made total sense in her eyes.

That very same woman was sitting in thought at her desk, overlooking the beautiful Alola region. Her mind wandered to the Ultra Guardians once more. Every member of the Ultra Guardians, aside from herself and her group at Aether Paradise, had been less than 15 years of age when the Ultra Guardians had formed. That day was around 6 years ago. How far they had all came in 6 years was staggering.

Sure, they all had different jobs now. Of the group, there had been 3 girls and 3 boys, and how different they had all become. The first girl, Lana, had travelled to the Sinnoh Region many years ago in search of the legendary Lake Guardians, Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie. She only had just recently gotten back home. The second girl, Mallow, was different in that retrospect for a time being. Unlike Lana, she opted to stay home and help out her father with the cooking business for a good few years. That all changed when her brother, Ulu, returned home from his cooking journey that he had been on for many years. She then decided to leave on her own journey for over two years to learn the secrets of cooking. She only ever returned home for one thing: Ultra Beast sightings.

The last girl of their group was her own Daughter, Lillie. She herself couldn't believe how strong her daughter had become. Her little Vulpix named Snowy had evolved into a magnificent Ninetales. She then decided to go out and train more Pokémon alongside Gideon, Lillie's brother. They were both currently taking a few month's break in their Home on Melemele Island.

The first boy of the group was named Sophocles. He was, by far, the most intelligent of the group. He managed to get a job that nobody else could've ever gotten, and there was no doubt that he was worthy of the job; he got to design the Alola Battle Stadium, or ABS for short. Alongside that, he was also in charge of the now-completed Alolan League headquarters. She smiled a little at that. The next boy was named Kiawe. His calm personality made him the perfect fit for his job as well: a Gym Leader. Lusamine was beyond confident that there was no better person to man the Earith (Are-Rith) Town Gym.

But… there was nobody more remarkable of the group that consisted of the Guardians than the final boy. When she had met him, he appeared more broken than anyone she had ever seen, with nobody to turn to. Six Years Later… and the transformation was unrealistic. His power, his strength, his trust in others, everything about him seemed improbable. Hell, anything he even did seemed like it was defying the laws bestowed upon the world.

"Ahem… Lusamine?" A voice said. She was jolted out of her dazed state by someone speaking over the intercom. She recovered and said as calmly as she could. "Yes? Go ahead."

"You have someone here to chat with you… shall I send them in?" Lusamine smiled. Speak of the Devil… she thought with a grin. She responded. "Ah yes, of course."

The door opened a moment later and a young man walked in. He wore a red and white Pokémon hat that created a shadow, which loomed over his eyes. He was also sporting a zip up red vest with a white zipper, and under it, was a dark gray T-shirt. On his right arm, he wore a brace that covered his entire forearm and stopped when it was just about a third of the way past his bicep. On his right wrist, was a Z-Ring. On both hands, he was wearing Gray and Red gloves. Last but not least, he was wearing gray pants and gray shoes that contained a hint of red. And of course, around his neck was a necklace that had a few mega evolution crystals on it.

The man spoke. "I'm not interrupting anything, am I?"

Lusamine replied. "No, you're not."

The man was still for a moment before nodding and speaking. "In that case…" He looked up a little more and revealed his slightly blue eyes. His hair was a lighter shade of brown than she remembered when she had first met him, though it still had it's same, spiky design. How far this man had come in six years was staggering.

"… It's great to see you again Lusamine!" he spoke with a small grin. She quickly enveloped him in a tight hug and he hugged back. She released him and spoke with a knowing smile. "I don't even recognize you with those damn contacts in! I always mess up your eyes!" The man smiled a bit, though there was some bitterness behind it. "It's just a precaution I'm afraid… you're kinda stuck with it."

Lusamine playfully shoved him away then spoke. "Alright then… the champion of Alola himself wouldn't come here himself unless something is about to happen… what gives?"

The boy grinned. "What, I can't just visit you without having a good reason?" Lusamine gave the man a look and then he proceeded to chuckle. "Guess not huh?"

Lusamine sighed and smiled a bit. "Ash, I'm busy, you're busy, we're all very busy. You could've just called or sent someone over. But, you chose to come here yourself. Clearly, something is up. What is it?"

Ash Ketchum's small grin left his face and he spoke calmly. "Sophocles just put the finishing touches on ALT City. We should have everything up and running soon, it's been under construction for so long that residents have actually thought it wouldn't ever be done." Lusamine shook her head for a moment. "Pardon, but why is it you insisted on calling it ALT City? What does ALT stand for?"

He grinned. "Alolan League To…" His grin faded. Lusamine laughed. "You were going to say Alolan League Town, weren't you? Sooooo in all, you mean it was supposed to be "Alolan League Town City?" Ash groaned. "How did I mess that up so badly…" Lusamine shrugged and gave a hearty laugh. "Don't ask me, you dug your own grave on that one, I'm afraid." Ash chuckled. "Guess you're right. But that's not what I came to talk with you about."

Lusamine lost her cheerfulness at seeing Ash's expression turn serious. "I have to leave for a day or so in a week's time, Mr. Goodshow called for the attendance of all champions for some reason, and I have reason to believe that it's for the likely occurrence of the tournament that is said to occur in the next few months." Her eyes widened. "Y-you mean… the tournament?" Ash sighed and nodded. "I'm afraid so.

Lusamine closed her eyes and rubbed her temples. "Well, as long as Alola isn't…" Her eyes bulged open and then flew to Ash, who was staring outside the window in thought. She spoke with a worried tone. "Y-you don't think…"

Ash interrupted. "It's exactly what I think; Alola is the only region to not host one of these tournaments because it's Pokémon league has only been in existence since I became its champion three years ago. Johto, Sinnoh, Kanto, Unova, Kalos, and Hoenn have all hosted at least one of these tournaments that occur every five years, and because Sophocles just finished with the town itself in the terms of construction and making sure everything else has been settled, I believe Mr. Goodshow will see it as a prime opportunity to publicize Alola."

He sighed and sat down on a nearby couch. "And personally, I agree with him. We've come such a long ways in Alola, industrializing it and making it one of the most advanced regions ever, and all while keeping Alola beautiful and green, but the more the merrier."

Lusamine smiled weakly. "You have led us to great success, and yet the outsiders barely even know Alola exists. If only they knew…"

Ash placed a hand on her shoulder comfortingly. "I couldn't have done it without the assistance of many others… you know this. And you also know the reason why I'm telling you in advance in the first place: ALT City is directly connected with Aether Paradise, so Aether Paradise is going to need an increase of security for the duration of the tournament, should Mr. Goodshow opt to send the tournament here as I predict he will."

It was true. Though Aether Paradise had originally just been a small floating island with nothing else within many miles of it, after some talking to with Pokémon League officials, they too believed it was a smart decision to try and make an island that was directly connected with Aether Paradise so that the Elite Four and Champion would be directly connected with those who knew how to combat Ultra Beasts. After nearly a year of hauling rocks and boulders over, they finally made a titanic island that had sturdy support and was finally approved to make the Pokémon league and ALT City.

Lusamine was silent for a moment before speaking. "And there's no way to just tell him we don't want to host a tournament?"

Ash shook his head. "If we did so, it may violate some of our terms with the Pokémon league officiating. We can't deny them the chance to host a tournament in a fairly new developed league. In Mr. Goodshow's eyes, this is the perfect time to show off the Alola Region and all of its power." Ash paused for a moment before speaking again. "And personally, I agree with him. This is most certainly the time to demonstrate our power."

Lusamine smiled a little and nodded. "Well, I suppose there is hope we won't have it here, as little as that hope is."

ALT City/Pokémon League…

The beautiful sun was shining brightly on everyone that resided in ALT City and the Pokémon League. ALT City itself was fairly massive, after all, it took a year to get enough boulders and rocks to make a base for the island. When they finally did get enough, they proceeded to plant grass after making the ground level, well, you get the idea. The bottom line: only recently had ALT City truly become finished with construction.

It was composed of different quadrants: Residency Quadrants, Shopping Quadrants, Tourist Quadrants, etc. Ash and Sophocles had designed the entire island once Ash had become the champion. That included the Pokémon League as well as ALT Battlefield, or ABS as some people called it (Alolan Battle Stadium). The battlefield itself was composed of two battlefields side by side, and could combine into one massive field if need be. Sophocles had also made a point to Ash by saying that if there were two battles going on at once, that the walls should be ray-shielded to prevent damage.

The Island itself was built rather oddly, but, it was by design. The Pokémon League sat on the top of a rather large hill that had a very large backyard as well that the Elites and Champion could use for training. Of course, the inside was also massive, and each of the Elites and the Champion had his or her section to it. (AN: More on this later)

Ash found himself walking through the shopping district of ALT City and enjoying the peaceful weather. Of course, if he was in his usual outfit, people would be flocking to him for autographs (AN: His appearance when he was with Lusamine was his standard clothing). Ash now wore blue jeans and blue shoes as well. He swapped his usual red vest for a sweatshirt that was a mix of red, white, and blue. The shoulders were covered in red, the arms of the sweatshirt were white, as was the majority of the center of the shirt. However, across the middle of the sweatshirt was a big, blue "X". Finally, he wore a red, white, and blue pokéball cap on backwards that had blue, red, and white stars around it.

He walked into a shop for Pokémon food that he usually went to. Ironically enough, still nobody had recognized him for who he actually was, or if they did, they just opted not to say anything. He paid for the food, groaning a little when he read the label of the food once more. He paid for it with a smile, his blue eyes still shining.

He walked outside and smiled brightly when he looked up the hill and saw the Pokémon League there waiting for him. Then, he heard a scream and saw two men and a women calling out Pokémon, preparing for battle with a young man and older woman who had no Pokémon out whatsoever.

The tallest male, presumably the group's leader, spoke loudly. "Now, you're gonna give me those Z-Crystals right there or there's gonna be trouble, you hear me!?" The three assailants called out Salandit, Zubat, and Garbodor. The two didn't move, so the bandits cried out.

"Salandit use bite!"

"Zubat, Leech Life!"

"Garbodor, use Sludge Bomb!"

There was a bright flash, and watching bystanders gasped as an explosion wreaked havoc on the street. When the smoke cleared, everyone gasped as they saw all three Pokémon completely knocked out. The leader gasped and cried out. "W-w-what kind of sick joke is this?" That was when they all caught sight of a figure standing across from them. It was a man, but his identity was still concealed by the smoke of the explosion and the dust it gathered.. The man had two Pokémon out, a Purple Cat and a Fire Monkey of some sort. The man spoke through the dust. "That's no way to treat the residents here, now is it?"

The girl of the group yelled. "Who do you think you are!"

The shorter male added. "Yeah! This place belongs to Team Skull!"

The dust slowly faded and the man said. "My Name is Ghost…" The dust completely faded to reveal an Espeon and Infernape by his side. "… And I'm the Champion of Alola!" A round of gasps circled around from Team Skull to the watching bystanders. People began cheering, clapping, and whispering loudly to one another.

"I-I don't believe it!"

"It's actually him!"

"Ghost, as in, the most powerful trainer in Alola "The Ghost"?"

"He's gonna wipe the floor with them!"

Meanwhile, the Team Skull grunts were sweating up a storm now. The leader sputtered. "H-he's t-t-the G-ghost?!" The girl looked like all the color had drained from her face. "M-may be a good time to b-bail if you ask m-me…" The last guy was already running away with a cloud of dust in his wake. "Y-you said it!"

The three were all gone in a matter of five more seconds. A rousing cheer came up from the watchers as they supported their leader. The young man and old woman approached Ash. The man shook hands with Ash and said. "You saved us! How can we ever repay you?" The old woman said. "Please have something as a token of our gratitude, please!" Ash laughed and said. "Hey don't worry! I'm just doing what any good person would do to help out someone else in need!"

He then returned both Pokémon and called out his Charizard. He cast one more wave to the watchers and took off on his majestic fire type towards to the Pokémon League.

Hoenn…

Petalburg City was bustling, as per usual. Everyone that was walking around was flashing giant smiles at one another and preparing for the day ahead. However, not everywhere was such a positive and happy affair. Inside the Petalburg Gym, three people were in very depressed funks. These three people were Caroline, Norman, and May Maple. They were approaching a very sad day for them: the anniversary of the day that two of them lost a close friend, and the day that one of them lost her dear love.

May sighed and stared sadly outside the window. She had lost all motivation to do next to anything once Ash had disappeared. She had heard about his rather grueling death, but, what appalled her more than anything was when she had heard that her Brother, Max, had the opportunity to save him, and had chosen not to do anything about. She had not had the chance to tell him about what he had seen was completely incorrect and false, but, to be fair, had she walked in on him the same way, she would've lost her mind as well.

Flashback… Six Years Ago…

May was currently behind one house in Pallet Town; The Ketchum Household. May found herself waiting for Ash along with all of his other friends, who were all chatting amicably with one another. There were a few faces she was a little confused with, and didn't know them, while a few of them she did know and she began to chat with them happily. Then, there was another group of people altogether: The group of people she recognized, but shouldn't have been there for various reasons.

For example, some of Ash's old rivals were there, and of course… there was…

"Hello May, been a long time." A voice said. She whirled around and came face to face with Drew, her Contest Rival. She was a little more than surprised at seeing him but made no attempt to brush him off and walk away, after all, the crush she had on him from years prior was merely just that: a crush from years prior.

"Hi Drew, I didn't expect to see you here?" She said with confusion. Drew grinned a little and spoke. "Mrs. Ketchum invited me. After all, since Ash is coming back from his Kalos Journey today, I said I could make it, after all, she said you'd be here too!" May blinked. Why on earth would Mrs. Ketchum do that? It made no sense… especially because of the conversation that Ash and her had the night prior. May sighed a little in happiness, she could hardly wait to see him again!

They had done things the night prior that she had only dreamed about happening… she blushed at the thought of them talking like the way they did. However, she picked the wrong time to blush, because when Drew saw it, he took it as a chance to advance on her. Drew spoke softly. "May, I… I'm sure you probably already know this, but I really like you…" May blushed even harder, but she tried to force it out.

'May… get ahold of yourself… remember the conversation you just had with Ash last night… you know… the one where you admitted your feelings for him… and the one where… you know… the one where he admitted that he had the same feelings!? Get yourself toge-' Her thought process was sliced off when all of the sudden she felt someone kiss her on the mouth.

Her mind, which was completely intoxicated by the thoughts of Ash, the man she truly loved, flipped out of control, and without thinking about it, she deepened the kiss. This continued for a few moments until she unconsciously placed her hand on the back of the male's head, and the moment she made contact with it, her mind snapped back to reality, though her eyes remained closed, and her hand still remained behind the man's head. She realized the terrible act she had just committed and knew now that she was indeed kissing DREW and not Ash.

'WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? WHAT HAPPENED TO LAST NIGHT'S CONVERSATION?! IF ASH FINDS OUT YOU'RE-' Her mind was cut off from it's thought process when she felt the presence of someone else enter. She opened her eyes and broke off the kiss and saw someone staring at them from the side of the house, seemingly frozen in shock. She looked over the figure for a moment before her eyes bulged in panic.

It was Ash.

He had Pikachu on his shoulder with a stunned look in his eyes. He looked as though someone had just told him his life would end in a week. All the life that had once been in those Auburn eyes was totally gone. May felt her voice crack. "A-ash! I c-can explain!"

Ash shook his head slowly in disbelief. "I can't believe you." He then turned on his heel and walked back around the side of the house. Drew stared at May. "Am I missing something?" May urgently broke free of Drew's grasp and when Drew made to follow her, she pointed at him pleadingly. "No! Stay here, I'll take care of it! Please!" She then ran around the house to catch him. She grabbed his wrist and Ash jerked it away forcefully.

"Why?" He spoke, his voice breaking.

Tears were falling from May's cheeks in waves. "I-I'm sorry, it was an honest-" She was cut off as Ash said angrily. "MISTAKE? AN HONEST MISTAKE?!" May didn't know what to say, so she just kept crying. "I come back from a journey and we haven't seen each other in ages… I call you to confess my love to you…"

He shook his head and Pikachu stared back and forth between the two, completely lost to whatever was happening. Ash spoke again, extremely quiet. "You, and only you… forever. Those were your exact words." May cried. "Y-yes! Th-they were! And they're true!" Ash growled. "You expect me to believe that!? You were just over there trying to suck his tongue out and you expect me to believe those words?"

"Yes she was, and she was quite good at it too." A voice said behind her. May whirled back around and saw Drew walking towards the two of them. Ash stayed eerily silent as Drew smirked at him. "She really wanted a true man, so, she came to me, those were your exact words, weren't they?" May's jaw dropped; this couldn't be happening!

She sputtered. "Wha-Wha,,, wh-when did I ever…" She immediately turned back to Ash and held his hands in her own. "P-please! I s-swear I didn't mean anything wrong!" Ash ripped his hands from her grip and stepped back. She sobbed and took a step towards him. "P-PLEASE!" Ash shook his head and took two steps backwards.

His voice was just above a whisper. "…No. I can't May. You…" He sniffed once, tears gently falling down his cheeks. "… You swore that it was me. Whether y-you're telling the truth or not… I…" He hesitated and spoke quietly. "I-I know what I s-saw. You placed your hand behind his head to get further…" and with that statement, Ash could go no further, he sobbed once and then said angrily. "Leave here. Don't come back."

May's breath hitched as the tears continued to stream down her cheeks. "N-no… p-please!"

Ash spoke. "Max will be back to your place soon… but…" He paused and turned around. "B-but… you can't be here. J-just… just go." He then ran inside and slammed the door shut. May fell onto her knees and cried. Drew smiled at her and placed an arm around her for comfort. Naturally, this was not the thing to do, and she shoved him off in anger.

She then cried. "WHY? Why did you lie to him! Why did you kiss me!? WHY?"

Drew blinked. "How was I supposed to know you liked him? I kissed you and then you deepened the kiss yourself, under your own free accord… so why wasn't I supposed to do something? I figured if I made something up it would get you out of a jam…" He let out a groan of pain when she kicked him in the "You-know-where." She sobbed and cried. "You're such an IDIOT! I LOVE ASH! And you just… y-y-you j-just…" And with those final words, she ran off down the street, going anywhere that wasn't the Ketchum House.

Flashback End…

May stifled a little sob when she emerged from her flashback. How stupid she had been! Only she was unfortunate enough to be caught kissing another boy a night after she confessed her love to the one she truly loved. Once she returned home, she made her plans to earn his forgiveness, and then… tragedy struck.

Her heart yanked just at the thought of the event. She walked back into her room, locked the door, and began to sob into her pillow so nobody would hear her. She cried for the man she lost that day, the one she never got to truly explain to what he had seen, the one she had betrayed, and the one whom her heart belonged to.

AN: And that's a wrap folks! Chapter One is done! There are still plenty of characters that I have to introduce, so bear with me. Now, tell me the truth here: What did ya'll think? Too mushy? Too many tears? Not enough battle action? Not in depth enough? Hit me up with some thoughts here people, I always read every single comment, PM, and review, even if I don't respond to all of them. YOUR OPINION MATTERS.

Next Chapter will be out soon hopefully, but unlike my other stories, I have not been able to pretype any chapters. So when I post this, there is no chapter 2 that I have pretyped or likely even started at this point. What I expect next chapter to have:

The Champion's Meeting

The Scene of the Ultimate Betrayal

Meeting the Alolan Elites

Additional Stuff

I try my hardest to get out one post a week, but in all honesty I don't know if that'll be the case in this story. If every chapter is nearly 7k words long, it may be closer to every 2 weeks. If I didn't include something you wanted to see, please let me know. Some things will be explained in time. That's all I've got to explain for right now everyone, again, if you have any questions, please message me! I'll get back to you if it's a direct question! Thanks guys!

Make sure you follow and favorite the story and myself! See ya'll later! Till we meet again!
