Red

Ash was collapsing, and I felt it. As he was about to fall, I asked, weakly, "Ash?"

My brother sees me as if something had happened and his eyes were watery as he embraces me in a tight hug as Lysandre looks at us, angrily.

"How is this possible?" He asks.

I was totally confused of what was going on, or what I was doing, but I helped my brother up to his feet as his Pikachu looks at his Trainer.

"I'm fine, buddy." He replies to the Pokémon with relief.

"Ash, what is going on?" I asked, confused.

"Well, first thing, shut up and you're not evil." He replies.

Huh? What does Ash meant I was not evil, then memories flooded back to me as if it was a bad dream.

"Oh man... Ash I-" I began to say to him, but Ash pushes me aside to safety.

"We can have this discussion later, Red. I got to finish this." Ash said.

"There is no way I'm letting you have all the fun, little brother." I smirk.

Ash said, "Greninja, come out!"

The water Pokémon came out.

"Greninja!" The Water Pokémon said, ready to fight.

"Let's do it! Let's show them what we're really made of!"

A swirl of water came out of Greninja and I see the Bond for the first time!

May

I saw something in Prism Tower. "What's that?" I asked. Serena said, "Whoa, I can't believe it!"

Clement said, "Yeah, it looks like Ash-Greninja is back once again!"

Brock asks, "Ash-Greninja? Does this mean that on the Kalos League it actually happened, like what is happening right now?"

Serena replies, looking at us, "Yeah, it's called the Bond Phenomenon. Ash and Greninja has that special bond with each other. Ash and Greninja are in synch."

"Wow, Amazing! I didn't know that!" Dawn exclaims, watching Ash and Greninja forming the Bond Phenomenon.

When the transformation finished, I see an entirely different Pokémon I never seen before.

"Woah." I said, pulling out my Pokedex on the new Pokémon.

"Data not found." The Pokedex said.

"Ash-Greninja looks incredible! No wonder that Ash made it into the finals in the Kalos League!"

I said. Now I wished that Max, Misty and Delia would see how much stronger he has become.

"Look out!" Serena yells as Pyroar blasts our helicopter to hit the ground.

Suddenly a voice yells, "Flabebe, use Pedal Dance!"

The attack saves us from the fall and I was stunned to see a small fairy type Pokémon.

"It looks like we made it in time. Hiya, Sis."

It was Max!

"Max! What you-"

"Look, I've been on my own Journey when Ash disappeared, and I am so sorry about all the things I've said. I was so caught up in my anger, I let it get the best of me.

Flabebe and I are partners now and we trained every moment we can. That's what I've been doing these last five years. Where's Ash now?" Max asks me.

"He's at the top of Prism Tower." Bonnie explains, "I will get you there in a jiff. Alain, can I borrow your Charizard?"

"Bonnie, are you sure about riding Charizard all by yourself with Max?" Serena asks, stunned of her attitude changed.

"I'm sure, and I will help Ash no matter how dangerous it could be!" Bonnie explains as she jumps onto Charizard with Max on board.

They flew up to the top of Prism Tower.

"Charizard, use Dragon Tail!" Bonnie yelled, leaving Ash and Red in total shock.

"Whoa, Bonnie?"

Ash

As I was in Ash-Greninja mode, Red was in total amazement.

Lysandre said, "You are foolish child."

As Red and I were ready to battle the leader of Team Flare, a voice yelled out, "Charizard, use Dragon Tail!"

We turned around to see Bonnie and .. Max?!? They were riding on Charizard, arriving into the battle!

"Whoa, Bonnie?" I asked, totally shock of her coming in, but seeing Max was also a unexpected surprise.

He was one of the traitors who told me to give up of my dream to become a Pokémon Master!

What is he doing here?

"Max. What you doing here?" I asked him. He looked much older than I last saw him.

"Flabebe, use Fairy Wind on that machine!" Max yelled.

Was he really helping us? I didn't ask, assuming it was ask later.

"Greninja, water Shurkian!  And I combine that attack with my Aura Sphere and Red and Bonnie were both stunned.

"You really had to teach me of how you made those Sphere, Ketchum." Bonnie said.

"Sure... if you can handle it." I smirk, but then Lysandre yells, "Stone Edge!"

Max yelled, "Use Solar Beam, Flabebe!"

She did as instructed as Lysandre's Pyroar was defeated.

"Nice counter attack, Max!" Bonnie said, grinning at the young Trainer.

Has Max really changed?

"A Pokémon Guardian always finished the job." Arceus whispers in my mind. "Ash, you know what has to be done."

I knew that Serena doesn't approve of this, but It has to be done.

I unleash my Aura and Max said, "Ash, what you doing?!?"

Red said, "Ash."
