The Needs of the Many

Chapter 1; Gears of adventure.

The world of pokemon is a place of excsotice beauty, where humanity and nature coexist in peace. Found in every region they span from the seas to the sky, taking many shapes and form. In the very beginning people have lived with them as pets and as trainers. With their human trainers they compete against others to see who is the best and will take the role of Pokemon master. One certain trainer is Ash Ketchum, born in Pallet town; he started his journey to become the greatest pokemon master of the world. With Pikachu as his starting pokemon he has traveled far and wide, befriended many people and had many memorial adventures.

But unknown to Ash, his next adventure started three years ago, millions of light years away in a place where Pokemon didn't exist, and where war decided the fate of many. It began when one person left everything so that the rest would live.

[radio chatter]- is everything ready?

This is command, all systems go, Sir are you sure that this is the only way?

?- Yes it is, it's hard but it must be done.

Understood Commander, we are waiting on your command.

?-it's been a honor to serve and fight by your side. My friends I thank you for everything we shared together, live long and . . . . prosper. (there is a pause) This is G.D.I Supreme Commander Michael sighing out. Fire.

You heard the man, Activate the Tri-Ion stablelizers. Realign ion references to match the Galatia's coordinates.

All systems go, The ion field is stable and ready for sub-space interference, Its up to the commander now.

High above the planet Neptune the massive GDI warship Galatia floated ready to start its final voyage. The massive war vessel was a technological marvel, Built 241years ago it was the biggest ship to date. Spanning one and a half miles long, she was armed to the teeth, and carried a forbidden payload; The Ionized Crystalist Cannon. One could only imagine the number of crew members that was needed, but now it didn't matter only one person was controlling it, and after this it was the end of their existence to the galaxy as they know it. He waited as the sub nod activated, the three Ion beams fired in the center of the gate, then the hole that was known as sub-space became something unimaginable. The once former circle be came a three pointed star, it seemed as it was two-dimensional, looking through it one could see a tunnel leading to nowhere like a pit without a bottom, after the gate was stable the Galatia used its own sub-space drive and set the location of arrival, allowing a blurry image to form on the gate, but it was finally set when the ship warped in, and the gate collapsed in a magnificent light. The only thing they could compare it to was the Resurrection after death, making them think on how he gave everything so that they could live.

Present

Ash had won the Sinnoh League and was given one year to train and prepare for a battle with the Elite Four and the Champion, that began two months ago and Ash heard of a tournament in Hoenn that would help him in his quest. As he continued to walk trowed Oldale City, Ash took in the sights and smells around him.

Well buddy its been a long time sense we traveled by ourselves. He said to Pikachu, who turned and smiled at him.

"Pika-Pikachu" he looked at Ash seeing that he was in deep thought, his curiosity took over, "Pika Pika chu?"

"What, what did you say?" Ash responded.

"Pika-Pika chu"he repeated.

"I'm just remembering the old days, back when may was with us."

"Pika?"

"Of course I didn't forget about Max and Brock" Ash responded quickly.

"Kcaaaa"

Realizing were this was going Ash ignored Pikachu's last comment and found a place so that they could rest for the night. "this looks like a good place to camp out "he said as he started to get his stuff ready, Pikachu turned around and jumped off his shoulder and got in a comfortable position and fell asleep, Ash got inside his sleeping bag and looked up, remembering the night he spent with May three year ago on the night before the final battle in the Terracotta contest.

Flashback

Ash was trying to fall asleep for his battle with May tomorrow,But the anticipation kept him awake, as he rolled around in bed he saw the stary night sky and decide to go out side to think, he carefully got up to prevent waking up Pikachu and the others and changed to go out side. He walked around till he found a spot looking over the port and sat down on the grass as he gazed at the sky.

"Ash? Are you alright?" came a soft voice. He turned around to see May, in her silk clad nightgown.

"I 'm fine, thanks for asking." he responded. "I can't sleep so I came here to think about some thing on my mind."

"Oh really Ash, and what could be on your mind" as she put her hands on her hips. He didn't reply but smiled as he looked at her. May started to blush as her mind started to think, "Oh I can't believe what is going to happen, finally my wish comes true." He continued to stare in the eyes of the girl he loved, and they started to embraced each other as they stared into their eyes moving their faces closer, but right when they were millimeters from kissing, Ash saw what looked like a hole in the sky appear from no were forming a three pointed star.

"What in the world is that?" May turned around to see what it was. Before their eyes a ship started to come out of the gap in the sky. There was like nothing like it, it was about one mile long and had the structure of a building that was on it side. On the starboard side there were two symbols, one was a bird in a circle; the smaller one was strange and had a scorpion tail in the center. But what was caught their attention was that it was going to crash on them.

"ASH, don't leave me!" screamed May as she grabbed Ash and started to cry on this chest. Ash for the first time felt powerless to the fact that they would die, But before the ship hit them there was a blinding light and then their was nothing. Ash was amassed that they were alive but were did the ship go? His mind couldn't come with a answer.

"May it's gone, its aright." she looked at him still crying, Because the perfict moment was destroyed and that they were almost crushed. 'let's go back, not a word come out of what happened." May nodded her head and fainted to the fact that they almost died. Ash picked her up Bridal style and walked back to the Pokemon Center with many questions that had no answer.

End Flash-back

His mind still could not come up the answers for the events that took place on that day. He looked up at the sky wondering if he would ever find the origin of the craft he saw, not knowing that his next grand adventure started on that fateful day and would change his life for the better.
