Mask:YOU KNOW WHY!!!?

Ash:W-Why?

Mask:Because Ash Ketchum right now you are noting but pathetic brat who thought that he was undefeated because of the battles you went through in that tournament of champions and you know what happens with people who lose after achieving such a feat? one small loss can affect their mind set is like a voice or instinct that appears in your mind that makes you want to give up or run away so tell me. . . . . . . Ash are you going to take this fight like man and finish it or are you going to run away?

Ash:. . . . . . . . . . . .

Mask:Hmmmm let me give you more encouraging words *ahem!* your going to pick up your Pokémon and then your going to take out another Pokémon and your going to take your next Pokémon

Ash:. . . . . . . .

Mask:Like I said pick it up

Ash:I - I can—

Mask:Pick it up

Ash:I wo—

Mask:PICK IT UP!!!!

On instinct Ash picks up Pikachu but except of going back to his post he actually starts running away into the forest with Pikachu in his arms and tears running down his eyes and while he ran Mask stayed crouched while also looking at the spot Ash used to be in

Mask:He. . . . ran?

Kleavor:Kleavor Klea

Mask:Huh? I actually did not expect that I won't lie *stands up and takes out a Sitrus Berry* eat up *throws the berry at Kleavor who eats it in a flash* well! *starts to stretch his arms* our targets run away which shocks *after finishing with his arms he lowers down and stretches his legs* but that's fine we'll give him a head start

Kleavor: *swallows* Kleavor!

Mask:And that you've regained your strength *pushes himself up and cracks his neck* let's go get him

Kleavor takes action first and starts running the same direction Ash went while destroying some trees on his way and as for Mask he stands there before he's not even in the battlefield anymore he like disappeared to where that is the question

Pallet Town the place where Ash was raised and born and the place where you can find one of the Pokémon world's greatest mind but we shall meet him later now we go towards Ash's home

The two floor house he grew up in and the home where he was raised by his mother as we go inside the house we find that the place has been decorated with festive and party like accessories

???:How far did you say he was?

???:My Crobat spotted him on the path to pallet town so he should be here any time soon

???:Wonderful how are the decorations coming along?

???:All set and ready

???:Great! I can't thank you three enough for this

"Brock"

"Misty"

"Dawn"

Dawn:No problem Ms Ketchum like you we're happy that Ash had won the masters tournament

Delia Ketchum

Delia:Oh Dawn I'm not just happy for my little boy I'm proud *smiles* I've always been proud of Ash but now I'm the proudest mom you'll ever meet

Brock: *chuckles* That's hood to hear Ms Ketchum and don't worry this is something that shouldn't go un celebrated so we're happy to help

Misty:And ready to surprise Ash! oooooh he's going to be so shocked when he sees this

Dawn: *giggles* Yeah I bet he'll be surprise to not just see me but everyone else as well

Brock:Speaking of everyone else have they've told how long it will take them to arrive?

Misty:Well Max, May and Serena are on the plan now

Dawn:And Cilan, Cleamont and Bonnie are leaving their respected regions now to make it here

Delia:I was told by Kukui that him and the others would be arriving here shortly but have any of you heard of Iris

Dawn:Oh yeah! she told me that she left Galar now since she had some *sweat drop laugh* scolding's to take from her master

Everyone else sweat drops after hearing that the champion of Unova was having a scolding but were happy to hear that everyone's making their way now to congratulate Ash

Delia:Alright then I shall make dinner for all of us to enjoy the festivities

Brock:I'll help out if you want

Delia:That would be a appreciated Brock thank you

Misty:I'll go tell Tracey and Oak that if Ash arrive they should distract him until everyone else gets here

Delia:Great idea Misty! Dawn? would you mind going with her?

Dawn:Not at all *turns to Misty* Let's go

Misty:Right!

While Delia and Brock went to the kitchen Misty and Dawn went outside before beginning to make their way up to Professor Oak's lab which is where Tracey and Oak are

Misty:Who knew that Ash could actually do it? you know best Leon

Dawn: *giggles* He is a stubborn person so even if he did lose that wouldn't stop him for continuing his journey

Misty: *smiles* Ain't that the truth

They kept walking down the path as a moment of silence took over before it ends once Misty decides to bring something up

Misty:Hey Dawn?

Dawn:Yeah Misty?

Misty:What's your ummm what's your opinion on Ash?

Dawn:My opinion on Ash? well I think his a great guy, a great friend, an incredible trainer and the childish person I've ever meet

Misty: *giggles* You got that right but what I meant was that *nervously* your-ur opinion on him ro-romantically?

Dawn:Huh? *widens her eyes and blushes* Huuuuuuh!? are you asking if I like Ash!?

Misty:Well *sheepishly scratches her neck* yeah

Dawn: *blush* Ummm well! — I-I mean — weeeeell I-I-I— what about you Misty do you like Ash!?

Misty:Hey! why are you turning this on me!?

Dawn: *blush* Because you have to had a reason to ask me that! Abs I think it's because you like him

Misty:W-What!? *blush* nonononono it's nothing like that

Dawn:Oh really

Misty:Ye-Yeah! and you chanted the subject to escape the question didn't you!?

Dawn:Of course I would!

Misty:You know what!?. . . . . . . . . . . we should leave this for later with the other girls

Dawn: * blush* Ye-eah

With that the rest of the walk would have an awkward atmosphere as the girls remained quiet with their faces looking away from one another and a blush in their faces as they proceed to the lab but wonder something

Dawn / Misty: *mind* I wonder what Ash / that idiot is doing?

ELSEWHERE

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

"Pats!"

His breath appearing rapidly and heavily showed that he was tired but he ignored this knowing that this person would not stop until he had defeated and humiliated him so Ash while holding Pikachu ran and just kept on running

Ash:I *pats* can't stop *mind* not while he's still after me!

Ash quickly looks back and sees a yellow silhouette following him from a distance while also taking down trees that were in its path

Ash: *mind* They caught up!

Ash's eyes returned to look at what it's in front of him and it was trees and only trees that were tall and pencil placed all over the forest as he went pass each and every one of them his eyes took notice of a looming shadow above him following

Ash: *mind* Is that Kleavor!? *glance backwards and up noticing a familiar figure* what the—?

While Ash ran above him was someone who seemed to be flying over the trees and that was Mask the man Ash fought and was losing badly against

Ash:His is he doing that!?

Mask seemed to be literally flying over the trees while also having a dark purple aura around him as he flew

Mask:There's no escaping me brat!

Ash:Leave me alone!!

Ash even though he was tired increased his speed and continued to run and run as far away from the two things! that were chasing him

Mask:This brat really has a lot of stamina I'll give him that but let's see if he can still dodge *looks at where Kleavor is* KLEAVOR USE STONE AXE AGILITY!!

Down where Kleavor is he just cut down two trees that he could not fit through but then his eyes twitch a little bit and gains a serious look as he narrows his eyes and looks directly at Ash who runs while holding his friend

Kleavor:Kleeeeeaaaaaaaaa

Ash takes a quick glance back and sees Kleavor getting in a stance while ignoring his axes in energy before combining them

Ash:Oh no!

Ash quickly ducked down to the ground which was a good idea as

"WOOOOOOSSSH! SLASH!"

Kleavor:Vor

Every tree that was in front of Kleavor and the trees that were in front of Ash were cut off their trucks in an instant

Ash: *looks up and sees what Kleavor had done* So fast *notices that Kleavor is now only ten feet away from him* no!

Kleavor turns towards Ash and starts making his way towards the boy as he raises one of his axes before sending it down Ash but Ash rolls out of the way to dodge the attack and stands up before quickly ducking over a slash from Kleavor axe and then jumping away from the other axe that smashes the spot he was in

Pikachu:Pi-Pika pi?

Ash: *looks down at Pikachu surprised* Pikachu!?

Pikachu:Pi? Pikachu!

Pikachu suddenly awakens from his form unconscious state and looks around to see many trees knock over and sone trees still standing but what really makes his senses kick in is Kleavor who looks at them before crossing his arms in an X shape

Ash:He's going to use X scissor!

Green and black energy appears in Kleavor's axes as he launches himself at Ash and Pikachu who are unable to dodge the attack

Ash:Tsk! I won't let you hurt my bud!

Ash was going to take the hit for Pikachu but to his surprise Pikachu jumped out of his arms and went straight at Kleavor with his tail covered in iron tail

Ash:Wait! Pikachu!!

The two attacks collided and a power struggle could have happened if Pikachu was in his more healthier and stronger state than his injured and weak one of now

X scissor over powers the iron tail and Pikachu his send backward skidding on the ground before crashing into a tree

Ash:Oh no Pikachu!

Ash went towards Pikachu but was quickly stopped when a purple light began to surround him and lift him off the ground

Ash:Is this psychic!?

Mask:Close but I like to call it "telekinesis" which in theory is still kind the same

Ash: *able to at least move his head hd looks back and spots Mask with his right hand raised and covered in the same purple light* M-Mask

Mask:Ah Ah Ah mister world champion we still got a battle to finish and you

Mask motioned his hand towards himself and that made Ash flout his way towards Mask before stopping six feet away from Mask

Mask:Had the audacity to runaway! HA! HA! that is honestly disappointing really really disappointing I mean! I expect a lot out of you I really did but! it would seem that my hopes were all but a waste

Ash:Stop this!! I don't want to battle you! you'll just keep hurting my Pokémon!

Mask:Isn't that just battling?

Ash:Not your way! you didn't just just hurt Dragonite and Pikachu, you brutalized them and made them suffer while you enjoyed their sorrows! that's not a battle that's torture!!

Mask: *chuckle* Guilty as charge my good sir but hey what can I say other than out of all the battles I've had yours has been the one I've been wanted to have for a long long time ever since that Pikachu of yours beat a literal Latios in the Sinnoh league

Ash:Pikachu defeating Latios in. . . . the Sinnoh league *eyes widen* Tobias? is that you?

Mask:. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . What?

While they converse Pikachu was slowly starting to get back up but was struggling to do

Ash:That's who you are right Tobias the undefeated trainer! why are you doing this to me!

Mask:Wait wait you think I'm that edge lord looking guy that only showed one of his eyes so he can look like his edge lord buddy Darkrai? sorry to say this kid but I already defeated that guy a few days after he won the Sinnoh league

Ash:What? no that can't be possible Tobias was considered one of the strongest trainers to have ever existed people considered him a champion

Mask:Hmph! yeah well I hope they renamed his tittle from undefeated to defeated because I left that guy depressed and pathetic after our battle

Ash:What? how could you!? did you do the same thing you did to me to Tobias!?

Mask:Pretty much yeah only that *right eye shines red* I didn't hold back with him

Ash:You monster!

Mask:HAHAHAHA!! Yes! I am monster!! and I don't care so here's what we're going to do!

Mask pushes Ash away from him and crashing into a tree

Mask:Your going to take out your next Pokémon and we're going to finish our battle!!

Kleavor:Kleavor!

Ash: *starts to slowly stand up* N-No I won't let you hurt my friends!

Mask:Oh yeah! then if that's how you want to be *looks at Pikachu* then I guess all you need is a bit of encouragement *extends his hand towards him and it glows purple and Pikachu glows purple too has raised a little bit in the air*

Ash:Hey! what do you think your doing to Pikachu!

Mask:Since you don't want to battle me I need to give you some encouragement so you can fight me *starts clenching his fist*

This causes Pikachu to start getting crushed by the pressure Mask was giving to him while he slowly closed his hand

Ash:Stop!

Mask:Take out your next Pokémon and I will

Ash:I won't!

Mask:Then say goodbye to Pikachu

Pikachu: *struggling* Pi Pika Pi Pi

Ash:Pikachu!

Mask:Five seconds Ash or he gets it!

Ash:Just stop!

Mask:Five!

Ash:No! *starts charging at Mask*

Mask:Four!

Ash:Don't do it!

Mask:Three!

Ash: *stops and goes to grab a pokeball* I have no choice

Pikachu:Pika Pi!

Ash turns to Pikachu and sees his bud shaking his head telling Ash to not give what Mask wants and that he rather die than see his brothers getting hurt

Ash:Pikachu

Mask:Two!

Ash: *turns to Mask* Noooo!!

Mask:One!

???:GEOT!!!!

Out of nowhere something tries to hit Mask but the mysterious individual teleports out of the way dodge the attack that came from a blur which also allows Pikachu to be free from Mask's hold and that blur then goes after Kleavor next hitting the left side of his chest with that would seem to be Steel Wing making the big guy stumble back a little as he placed one of his axes in the spot he was hit

Kleavor:Klea? *looks at where the blurs going and follows it's movement* Kleavor!!

Mask:Ooooooh you angered Kleavor whoever did that

Ash:Is that?

The blur finally stops when it goes above the three individuals as it looks down revealing who he is or I should say who she is

"Pidgeot!"

Ash: *smiles* Pidgeot! man it's so good to see you

Pidgeot: *smiles at Ash* Pidgeooot!

Ash: *smiles before his expression quickly gets serious remembering something* Pikachu!

Ash runs to Pikachu and Mask sees this happen as he extends his hand towards Ash and was about to hold him with his telekinesis

Mask:Oh no you don't! *senses something coming his way* whoa! *dodges another blur that came after him* what are this things!

This new blur is then revealed to be another pidgeot that regroups with Ash's pidgeot but that's not all another pidgeot appears and flaps his wings beside the second pidgeot as they all look down at Mask and Kleavor

Mask:Three pidgeots? that doesn't seem to troubling

Kleavor:Klea

"Pidgeeey!"

"Pidgeooottoo!!"

Mask and Kleavor look around and see new brings piping out of the trees and they are Pidgeot's previous evolutions

Pidgeotto and Pidgey

Mask:Crapbaskets

Kleavor:Klea

Mask:Oh shut it you

Ash's Pidgeot:Pidgeoooooot!!!!

With the signal called out all the pidgey, pidgeotto and two Pidgeot charge at Mask and Kleavor who quickly react

Mask:Kleavor stand close!

Kleavor does has he was told and now stood closely behind Mask who channels his telekinesis before summing a force field around them which most of the pidgey abd pidgeotto crash into and don't make a dent on it

Mask:Alright now to think of a plan

And while he thought of a plan as bird Pokémon collided and fired attacks at his force field we go to Ash who was holding his buddy with tears in his eyes as Pikachu weakly looked up at him with a smile

Pikachu:Pika

Ash:Don-Don't you ever ever do that again okay?

Pikachu:Pi *nods*

Ash:Good now *sees pidgeot land in front of him* we need to get out of here

Pidgeot: *nods* Pid

Ash quickly gets himself and Pikachu on Pidgeot as the big bird Pokémon extends his wings before flapping them as it starts taking flight

Back with Mask he's still thinking of plan while he kept his force field up but his thoughts could not finish when he sees Ash start to get away

Mask:No no no Kleavor! change of plans

Kleavor:Klea?

Mask:I won't you to stop those three from getting away while I deal with this chumps

Kleavor:Kleavor *nods* klea?

Mask:Don't worry about me old friend *body starts to get covered by a dark purple aura* I got this

Kleavor:Klea!

Pidgeot start to fly away and on cue Mask drops the force field and grabs hold of four of the birds with his telekinesis allowing him to use them as wrecking balls has he crashes them onto the other pidgey and pidgeotto while dodging their attacks has he jumps over a pidgey that tried to hit him with peck and then he uses a pidgeotto to hit the pidgey

As with Kleavor he knocks away a pidgeot that tried to get in his away and then takes an Air Cutter from pidgeotto but it does nothing so he knocks that one away too and uses Agility to catch up with Ash's Pidgeot

Ash:Take me home Pidgeot I have to take Pikachu to profe— look out!!

Kleavor appears of out nowhere and tries to use X scissor on them but Pidgeot was lucky enough to quickly dodge the attack and not get hit by it

Ash:Nice dodge! but we're not out the woods yet!

Kleavor:Kleavor!

Appearing from above Kleavor tries to land a hit on the trio with Stone Axe but Pidgeot dodges the attack again

Ash:He's not going to let us go so it's time to strike!

Kleavor appears again and this time he was charging straight at them woth Stone Axe so they decide to clash with it

Ash:Use Steel Wing!

Pidgeot:Pidgeeoooot!!

Pidgeot's left wing got covered in steel as it and Kleavor's axe collided before quickly separating from one another and passing each other

Kleavor:Kleaaaa! *starts to use Double Team*

Kleavor 1:Klea

Kleavor 2:Klea!

Kleavor 3:Klea

Kleavor 4:Klea

Five Kleavor's and they were all using agility as they began to run or dash all around the trio who looked around themselves as they see one Kleavor that the disappears they spot another one and it also disappears before reappearing again or is it just a clone appearing where that one appeared?

Ash:Raaah! this is so frustrating with the way their moving is hard to tell which one's the real one!

Pidgeot:Pid! Pidgeeooot!

Ash:That's right! we can't let this stop us!

Pikachu:Pika!

Pidgeot:Geot!

Ash:Pidgeot use Air Stash!

Pidgeot:Geot! Geot! Geot! Geot!

Pidgeot fire about eight Air Slash's at the Kleavor's who three of them got hit destroying them while the last two appeared and reappeared circling around the trio

Ash:Darn! there's still two left *sees them charging* dodge it!

Pidgeot successfully dodges the two Kleavor's Stone Axe which destroyed the last clone of Kleavor as the real one hit him

Ash:Okay! now use Steel Wing!

Pidgeot charges at Kleavor and was about to him with Steel Wing but Kleavor block the attack by using Agility

Ash:It missed!

Kleavor:Kleavor!! *appears above them again and goes to use Rock Slide* Voooor!!

Kleavor launches Rock Slide upon the trio as Pidgeot dodges three boulders two were able to land a hit on her

Ash:Oh no Pidgeot!

Kleavor:Kleavor! *charges with X Scissor*

Seeing the incoming attack Pidgeot uses herself to protect Ash and Pikachu as when the attack hits she with the other two start falling down to the river

Ash:Pidgeot!!!

Kleavor sees this before dashing away with Agility to go back with his master which as we go back we see him matrix dodging a Pidgeotto who used Quick Attack and before it could go on Mask grabs hold of him and redirects his charge to go straight at a group of pidgey and pidgeotto who launch both Air slash and Air gutter and the pidgeotto using Quick Attack gets hit by all this attacks before crashing into the group

Mask:Phew

Pidgey:Pidgeeeeeeey!!!

A pidgey tries to hit Mask with a Tackle but he dodges the attack and grabs the pidgey by its head before slamming him onto a tree as he then teleports and reappears behind three Pidgeotto's grabbing hold of all three before throwing each one of them to different directions

Mask:Alright now the only ones left are the—

One the two Pidgeot's shouts as he tries to surprise attack Mask with a Brave Bird but Mask turns around in time and stops the Pidgeot before it could land the hit

Ash:Nice try but not fast enough

Pidgeot:Geoooot!!

The other Pidgeot tried to get him with an Aerial Ace but Mask decide to put the two against each other and jumps over the pidgeot who tried to get him with Brave bird while still holding onto him before letting go and making him go directly at the other pidgeot as the impact of the two creates a small explosion that makes both of them faint

Mask: *sighs* That all? I was actually enjoying myself right now? did you guys also have fun?

Mask turns to other fainted pidgey's and Pidgeotto's

Mask:Yeah I'm sure you did

Kleavor: *appears in front of Mask* Klea

Mask:Ah! my old friend welcome back how are our targets doing?

Kleavor:Kleavor Klea Kleavor

Mask:Hmmmm is that so *takes out a pokeball and returns Kleavor* I'll handle the rest from here pal but don't worry you'll be back soon I promise *puts his pokeball away and starts walking away from the fainted Pokemon as he teleports away
