It has been some years since I started to visit Oak's lab. Right now I am a 7 years old boy and luckily I look more like my mom, except for my hair that is raven black.

I became Gary's rival some weeks after I meet him, he is still cocky and proud to be Samual Oak grandson but I've been working on changing that.

The past year I have started to feel this thing called aura, but if I focus too much on it I can concentrate me in meditation. Aura is supposed to be strongly linked to my vital force so I decide that is time to start training my body, that way I could access my aura.

For almost a year I've been training and overcoming my limits, taking baby steps. Mom was worried when I change from being a bookwork to a hyperactive kid. But after seeing my soaking in sweat with a big smile on my face she prefers to leave it alone.

Ash: "T-This is not getting easy, but I feel that my strength is building up. Still is not enough if I want to learn to use aura before I turn 10 years old.

Walking to home I can help to feel sad, what a way to enjoy my free day. I'm covered in sweat and dust. huh? There is a car parked in front of my house. I wonder who is it...

Ash: "Mom, I am back!"

I can hear mom's voice from the other room.

Mom: "Ash, we have guests. Hurry up and take a shower and come to say hello."

Ash: "Sure, mom".

After taking my time in the shower I feel really fresh. I decided to put blue jeans and a white shirt with a Pokeball motive on it. Then I walk to the living room to greet our guests.

To my surprise, the one who comes to visit mom is her old friend and fellow student. Spencer Hale. He brought his wife and daughter too.

I have read some papers about his research, he has some kind of obsession with the Unown. I know that what he is searching for is real, but I don't think that he would any take any warning that I like a 7 years old kid could give him. The dimension Unown is not something to take lightly, many of the stronger pokemon live there.

Spencer put his eyes on me, he looked kinda disappointed but hide it with a smile.

Spender: "Hello Ash, it's nice to meet you finally. Your mother just said that you are a very smart boy and that you are learning from the Prof. Oak. There are many people that would wish to be in your place."

I am sure that there are many assholes that would slave themselves to Oak, fortunately in my case is temporal.

Ash: "Hello professor Spencer, its good to meet you too" He looks surprised. in his place, I would be too. He is not very known, his research adds nothing to the current pokemon studies.

Spencer: "You knew me? what a nice surprise. Tell me, Ash, what have you heard of me?"

I recited with eyes like death fishes.

Ash: "Prof. Spencer. A formerly student from Prof. Oak, at present he is living in Greenfields in the region Johto, he spends too much time studying the ruins Alpha that belongs to a civilization that existed ages ago."

Mom burst into laughter and a smile formed at Spencer's wife lips.

Mom: "He did catch you there, your craziness is known around the world."

Spencer: "There is no 'too much' in pokemon researches." Trying to look dignified.

"You sure don't mince your words little Ash, but I hope that you can do something better than repeat a bunch of gossips."

Ash: "Who knows, only time will dell" I reply to him without worrying too much about it.

Mom: "Well I think that's enough of your researcher chat, Spender introduce me to that little princess that is hiding behind you." A smile returned at Spencer's lips. He sure dotes his daughter.

Spencer: "Come, Molly, say hi to Delia and Ash."

Mom: "look, Ash. She looks like a little fairy." More like a scared little animal, but yeah I agree in that she looks cute.

"Hello there Molly, you can call me Aunt Delia. I know your father since he was a child just little like you, do you look so much like him back then."

Yeah... I don't believe that. Surely she inherited her looks from her mother.

We talk for almost an hour before Spencer and his family decided to leave. Mom takes a photo with all of us as a memento. She really is a nostalgic person.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some time has passed since then, people use to say that unexpected friends are the best ones. I wonder if that is true...

Gary: It's your end Ash, not even your Charizard can win against my Dragonite. It doesn't even matter what Pokemon left in your team.

huh... so he defeated Charizard. Dragonite sure is strong, not a coincidence that they are partners of many champions. However...

Ash: "You talk too much! Go now, Clefable!"

Gary burst into laughter. Poor bastard, he can't see that he already lost.

Gary: "You have to be kidding, Dragonite let's end this. Attack Clefable with dragon pulse."

Ash: "guess what? Clefable doesn't receive damage from any type dragon attack. And now it's my turn. Clefable! Use Dazzling Gleam! Your Dragonite receive double damage from this attack, he is gone, Gary. and I've won. Again."

Gary: "NOOO! you are cheating! And this game is stupid! How could a Clefable endure the power of Dragonite? there is no way." He said while pointing at me.

We are currently playing an improvised version of the pokemon battles in the game boy. I did have this idea after that Gary keep bothering me about how talented he is. Since then I kick his ass daily, he even started to bet about who gonna have to do the worst tasks in the lab.

Ash: "Go and discuss that with Kalos researchers, I win again so is your turn to clean yard."

Oh crap, Prof. Oak returns early.

Prof. Oak: "What is happening here?" He said intrigued

Ash: "Its nothing professor, we are discussing how stupid is using attacks type Dragon in a pure type Fairy pokemon." OMG! he flinches!, are you serious Oak?"

Prof. Oak: "Stupid is a strong word Ash, I would prefer the term 'inexpert'." He then looked at his grandson. "And yes, the mysterious Type Fairy certainly could leave without scratches against any Dragon-type attack."

Gary: "It cant be..."

Ash: "You should have known that in the way to be a Pokemon master. Knowledge is power."

Prof. Oak: "There is truth in that words, but you can lose even with that. If you are not wise enough to use the knowledge then is useless."

Ash: "Well, I got enough for today. I'm going to help mom, See you next week!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mom has decided to open up a restaurant, I wonder if we are getting short of money...

It doesn't matter, mom looks happy since she finde something to do. And her food is very popular in the town.

After a minute I get into the restaurant, they're not clients at this hour.

Mom: Ash, is that you?

Ash: "Yeah, I am here. Where are you, mom?" She is nowhere in sight. One moment later she comes from the back, it seems that she was cleaning.

Mom: "how was your day Ash? are you enjoying your time at the lab?"

Ash: "Not much as at the begin, I have read almost every book there. But at least I can provoke Gary and have some fun at his expenses."

Mom: "You should not be mean with him, he doesn't have many friends apart of you," She said with a worried face.

Ash: "Don't worry mom, he will be fine. He is my rival after all."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is afternoon already, I'm meditating at my room. Today I'm feeling warmer than before, I think that I can found where this warm comes. I wonder what will happens if I pull a little...

The warmness turns into suffocating heat, it's getting hard to breath.

Fuck...that was a bad idea. Fatigue is building up in my body, I need to stop this!

visualize...visualize...make it flow back...

It takes me 3 minutes to stabilize it. Everything hurts, I feel like blacking out.

I'm done! I cant' move an inch without it hurts, I feel like almost died!
