Aura...

As Ash and Elena continue to walk across the town, stopping by some shops or stands that spark their interest as they make their way towards the end of the town. After two hours of exploring the town, they finally stood at the last stand which laid on the edge of the town. It was a large stall that was modeled into a large aquarium. In that aquarium, it was filled by a large number of water Pokémon, mostly in their first stage of evolution. On top of the aquarium, were a couple of people that were fishing, attempting to catch a water type.

"Here we are, it's time for me to catch that Pokémon I wanted to give you." Ash said as he and Elena approach the booth.

"You do know that I specialize on Steel type Pokémons, not water type, right Ash?" Elena asked with a confused tone as she looked at him.

"I know that but I feel more comfortable if you have a Pokémon that I actually know and this Pokémon will do." Ash answered with a smile.

"I have Koyuki and my other Steel Pokémons to help or protect me Ash, why add a water type?" Elena said with a distinct tone. "You should just add whatever the Pokémon you'll capture now to your arsenal." Elena commented.

Ash chuckled lightly at that comment. "Sorry Elena, I want to add that Pokémon to my arsenal but beauty isn't my style." Ash stated as he let go of Elena's hand. "Wait for me for a while; this will only take a minute." Elena would have none of that.

"Oh no you don't mister; I'm not going to allow you to give me another gift without me giving you a gift of my own." Elena said firmly as she placed her hand her hip while raising her umbrella threateningly. To Ash, she look threateningly cute.

Ash looked at her with a desperate impression. "We had a talk about this ealier, remember?"

"I know but please allow me to at least give you something tonight, please." Elena asked with a begging tone.

Ash, not wanting to hear that kind of tone on Elena, decided to yield. "Fine." Ash said in defeat.

"Thanks Ash." Elena said with a smiled.

Ash briefly smiled at her before continuing his walk towards the counter, not before saying something to Elena which confused her greatly. "You don't have to give me anything anyway, you already given me something that is more valuable than anything I had or will give you."

Elena looked at Ash confusedly before following him to the aquarium.

(Scene Change)

"Well that was eventful." Ash said as he looked at the Poke-ball on his hand, this prized was not yet complete but it will soon be. The two of them were currently walking towards a clearing in the forest near Twinleaf, the reason why was very simple, with their friends and family on the same town, they can't risk eating in public. That and Ash was the one who cook for the nightly picnic.

Elena on the other hand was pouting from ear to ear, a fact that did not go unnoticed by Ash. "Come on Elena, so what if you didn't caught any water types; you still have my little gift after I make some modifications." Ash said in a comforting voice.

Elena looked at Ash in despair before sighing dejectedly. "Why do those fishes be annoyingly slippery? I didn't even catch a single Water type, not even a Magikarp." Elena silently muttered in frustration.

Ash chuckled at her misfortune which caused Elena to give him a weak whack on the head. "Shut it mister, not all of us has have the talent to attract Pokémons easily." Elena said with a mock glare.

Ash laughed uneasily before carrying her bridal unexpectedly, which cause Elena to yelp and tightly embracing Ash's shoulder which made Ash flinch lightly. "Come on now, let go to the clearing already. I would guess that Pikachu and Koyuki are tired after flying all night long." Ash stated as he looked at the sky to see his two favorite Pokémons scouting the sky.

Elena nodded in agreement. "Yeah, those two are probably exhausted. I hope you made a lot of food for us tonight." Elena said with a smile (girls and their fast mood swings, well at least in the Philippines).

"I made a lot, good for at least ten people." Ash said as he placed his right hand on the back of Elena's head. "Hold on tight." Ash whispered as he suddenly pumped some Aura into his legs.

Elena giggled softly before shifting her hands towards his neck, embracing them lightly. "Would you stop being amazing for just a moment." Elena whispered humorously.

"I could but that would mean." Ash suddenly whispered softly." That would mean that I'm not worthy of you." And before Elena could reply, Ash began running at a speed that no human should have.

Unlucky for him, four people saw him doing that.

With Gary and Brock.

"Gary, did Ash just disappeared in thin air." Brock asked in shock. He literally saw his friend disappeared

"No, I think that he ran." Gary said in utter shock. Thanks to his experience in Pokémon training and researching, he could clearly see any kinds of movement made by Pokémons, what Ash just did was similar to an Extreme Speed or an Aerial Ace but there was a big difference, Ash's movements were faster, probably ten or twenty times faster. That further shock Gary.

"That was impossible, I know Ash is in top psychical condition but it's impossible for a human being to move like that." Brock exclaimed in shock, still not believing his eyes.

Gary completely agreed to what Brock, there was no way a human being could move like that, not unless. Gary's eyes widen, there was no way that Ash would become one of those Aura Guardians, it was not Ash's style to have that kind of power and responsibilities, but still, there was a possibility.

"Brock." Gary called the shock Brock, Brock then looked at Gary, questioningly. "I have a theory but it may seem skeptical." Gary stated as he took a Poke-ball from his pocket.

Brock then gave a surprised expression to Gary. "Skeptical you say, after today, after what I saw, I wouldn't be surprised if Ash is part Pokémon or something." Brock exclaimed with a skeptic tone.

With Adan and Natasha.

"Adan, those movements weren't human or humanly possible, heck even the fastest Pokemons will be hard press to achive that kind of speed." Natasha said in a voice of disbelief.

"I know that." Adan said quietly, not believing what he just saw.

"Did you and Alex teach the kid anything bizarre when he was kid." Natasha asked trying to contain her shock.

Adan shook his head into a no. "Alex taught Ash how to be a gentleman and how to play instruments, I taught him how to gamble and how to use his fist, and that's all the things that we thought him before he died." Adan explained.

"Then how could you explain that." Natasha asked skeptically, referring to the way Ash moved with a speed that could not be obtained by humans.

"To be frank, there's only one explanation I could think off, and that is near impossible." Adan stated as he took out a Poke ball from his pocket.

Natasha look at him before understanding that explanation that Adan stated. "Are you implying that that kid is an….." Natasha words were cut off when Adan nodded. "You do know that if your theory is correct, your nephew would be a guy that would confirm the research we have twenty years ago." Natasha exclaimed, with a hint of excitement on her voice.

"Yeah, that would be cool if weren't for the fact that the kid is truly Elena's dream guy." Adan said jokingly but with a slight seriousness. "Let's go."
