Are you a Tyranitar?

Ash and Lance went back inside the house and sat down in the living room while James served them some drinks.

"So what is your goal here Ash? and don't tell that you only wanted to win the Sinnoh League Championship because that is bullsh*t," Lance said as he took a bite of an apple.

Ash drank his soda and replied, "That was my initial goal but now upon seeing Alan and Tobias appearing here I am planning on fighting them after I take the championship." he then stared at Lance and continued, "And I hope that you will make the proper arrangement for me to able to fight them both together."

"Oh? you want a 2 vs 1 battle against the two strongest champions in Sinnoh and Kalos?" Lance replied with a grin on his face.

Ash nodded and said, "It will only be interesting if they fight together."

Lance laughed but he didn't object to Ash's request because he knew how strong Ash currently is compared to Tobias and Alan, sure they became champions for a few years already but they hardly improved their pokemons strength, unlike Ash who kept on striving to become stronger every day.

"How about Cynthia? you don't want to challenge her? maybe you don't want to defeat a beautiful lady like her, what a real gentleman." Lance teased.

*Cough* *Cough*

As Lance was teasing Ash, Serena just so happened to enter the living room and heard their conversation, she glared at Lance then sat beside Ash and served herself some drinks.

"Ehem, what is the Kalos Queen doing here? are there no more strong trainers challenging you back in Kalos?" Lance asked with a smile on his face not completely changing the topic.

But Serena didn't even glance at Lance and spoke with Ash completely ignoring Lance's presence.

"You've been training for the past few days you should rest today Ash, how about I give you a massage?" Serena said in a warm voice.

Ash smiled at Serena and replied, "I am still okay, training has already been part of my daily routine for the past 5 years so if I stop training for a day it will make me feel uncomfortable instead."

"Heeeey!! yoo-hoo!! please don't ignore this champion here!! don't you know how many people line up just to get my autograph?" Lance said while waving his hands trying to get their attention.

Serena cast a deathly glare over Lance making him flinch and lower his hand, he looked at Ash and said in a whispering voice, "How come you are housing an aggressive Tyranitar in your house?"

Ash could only shake his head and patted Serena's head, "Don't be mean to Lance, he is my friend and we were just fooling around earlier."

Serena was about to lash out at Lance when she suddenly felt Ash's hands on her hand making her snort in response and grumble silently, "You dare talk about other girls to Ash, just wait and see how I grill you up later."

Lance chose to ignore Serena's grumbling and went back to the topic, he didn't want to anger this Tyranitar anymore so he directly went into business, "Ash, my Dragonite sparred with your Garchomp earlier and I am curious as to how did your Garchomp overpower my Dragonite."

Ash glanced at Lance who had a serious look on his face and replied, "It's because my Garchomp is stronger than your Dragonite that is why he overpowered your Dragonite isn't that simple logic?"

*Pfft*

Serena held back her laughter when she heard Ash's response and saw how Lance face stiffened, she didn't know that Ash could talk like this and was completely on the way he replied to Lance.

"Urgh, what kind of answer is that Ash? I am asking seriously here!" Lance said in an exasperated voice.

Ash shrugged and said while standing up, "Do you really think that I will tell you the reason for Garchomp's increase in strength? you need to defeat me first if you want to know."

Upon hearing this Lance could only shake his head in defeat, he didn't ask anymore because he knew that it will be only useless. they didn't fight yet but he knew that Ash isn't too far from his level.

Ash went to his room to meditate while Serena stayed in the living room and asked Lance, "I wanna ask you something, Lance."

Lance looked at Serena with a questioning look, "What is it Mrs. Serena Ketchum?"

Serena glared at Lance with a blush on her face and asked, "Did Ash really trained for 5 years straight without resting?" this was the question she was really bothered about because she couldn't believe Ash training every single day without rest, she was worried that he might get injured someday and it will be irreversible.

Lance smile and said in a reassuring tone, "If you are worried that Ash may get injured then you should stop worrying because that guy's body is made of steel. I tried following his training regime a few years back and I can't even keep up."

Serena worries didn't lessen she thanked Lance for answering her question and went back to her room.

Lance shook his head seeing Serena worrying over Ash, he found it hilarious because Ash wasn't any normal trainer he was a monster if you compare him to other champion level trainers.
