Hey guys, Jeff here.

Sadly, this is the last chapter for this story, but also for this year! :'( (as it's New Year's Eve here in the UK)...
However, I have planned a lot of stories in the New Year, so hopefully that satisfies you! :)

Anways, once again, this chapter is going to be a bit confusing, so using the keys will be very important so that you won't get confused on which character is which. Please, I urge you to use this!

Key:

Mirror Characters (e.g. Mirror Ash = Ash)

Real Characteres (e.g. Real Ash = Ash)

Anyways, let's get to reading...


(Outside Reflection Cave; Mirror World)

"A double battle?!" The whole group said in unison in response to Clemont's idea.

Everyone was all staring at Clemont at this point. They were all surprised that Clemont had this very interesting and intriguing suggestion; however they think that he was just saying this to redeem himself from the embrassement of his machine blowing up from before as they stared at Clemont with a suspicious look.

Not surprisingly, Ash and Serena were both excited and jumping with joy – as they both loved to battle and took battling seriously – but Ash and Serena shuddered and were trying to avoid any eye contact with anyone – as they were not very confident with battling and they hated battling anyway, as they didn't have any skills on battling. At that point, Ash and Serena approached Ash and Serena, and both grabbed their boyfriend/girlfriend's hand that gave them some more confidence and some encouragement.

At that moment, Bonnie spoke up and asked Clemont confusingly, "Clemont, is this supposed to make up from your previous fail?"

Clemont blushed a bit – as this fact that Bonnie pointed out was the truth – but he resisted Bonnie's teasing and just answered in denial, "No, this isn't to redeem myself."

"Let me explain." Clemont said with pride and confidence as he looked at the whole group – who were looking at him and listening in to what he needs to say. "I think that a double now would do some good for Ash and Serena, and Ash and Serena."

"How is a tag battle going to help us in anyway?" Ash asked the blonde gym leader as he scratched his head quizzically.

"How can you be so dense, Ash?" Serena mentioned as she looked at Ash directly. "Don't you get what tag battles are about?"

"I don't know, I just battle my hardest and try to defend my partner's Pokémon… sometimes…" Ash said in response to Serena, which gave a disappointed look at him, as she couldn't believe how dense he still was, but that's one characteristic that she liked about Ash.

"I'll explain then, shall I?" Clemont spoke up as he tries to grab the whole group's attention, so that they will all understand what he has to say. "This tag battle will actually test both our couples' skills. Meaning, they will be tested on their teamwork between one another – as that is an important factor in a relationship – as well as their skills in battling – which is important in a Pokémon world, as they are trainers everywhere looking for battles."

Ash scratched his head on more time, before responding, "Oh, I get it now." which received some sighs of relief from the whole group.

"Finally Ash, you get it now." Serena muttered to herself to try and make Ash not hear what she said, but he did and received a peck on the cheek for that, which then made Serena develop a scarlet red colour on her cheeks.

"Why don't we get this battle underway, then?" Serena said out loud out of her impatience and frustration, as she was waiting patiently for their conversations to finish – which were taking some time to finish for some reason…

"Okay then." Clemont sighed and shook his head before turning to face Ash – who was having a conversation with Serena about something. "So Ash, do you get it now?"

"As I said Clemont, I get it." Ash replied as he interrupted his conversation with Serena. "So, let's get this battle underway!"

"That's the sprit, Ash! That's the Ash I love, the one what loves battling as he does with his girlfriend." Serena said with excitement as she gave Ash a hug to show her appreciation of Ash's fighting spirit, which made Ash blush a bit, but was gone after a few seconds.

"So Ash, are you ready too?" Serena said as she faced at Ash who was shuddering from nervousness, as he was unsure of himself with battling – as he just lacked confidence with battles – but Serena gave him a peck on the cheek and said with a reassuring voice, "Hey, Ash, I'm here all right? I'm here to help you get through this battle, so let's do this together."

Ash looked up from the ground and looked at Serena directly and said with pride and confidence, "Thanks for helping out, Serena! Now, let's battle… together!"

"Wow! I like the Ash who likes to battle as well as the Serena who is always there for Ash." Bonnie mentioned as she noticed the difference now with Ash and Serena and how both of their attitudes have changed when their problems have been sorted out. "Would you think so, brother dear?"

"I think I agree with you there, Bonnie." Clemont said as he too knew what Bonnie was talking about and how this has made an impact on Ash and Serena's relationship with each other, as everything was turned back to normal since Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie came to Ash's aid.

"Hey, bro." Bonnie said as she tries to grab Clemont's attention. "Are you going to be the referee?"

"Yes, I will, Bonnie." Clemont said as he looked down at Bonnie. "Why don't you cheer with our Ash and Serena with Clemont and Bonnie over there."

"'Kay!" Bonnie replied with excitement as she started to walk over to Clemont and Bonnie, who were cheering for their Ash and Serena.

"Okay…" Clemont said as he went up to his place where he will be standing as a referee and started to announce the rules, "This tag battle between Ash and Serena versus Ash and Serena will now get underway. Trainers will only use one Pokémon each and the battle will be over if all of one side's Pokémon cannot continue. Agreed?"

"Agreed." Ash, Serena, Ash and Serena said in response before nodding to show themselves agreeing to the conditions mentioned by Clemont.

"Okay, then. Battle begin!" Clemont announced as he did a chop movement with his arm – to act like a flag dropping down to show the battle has started.

"Pikachu, I choose you!" Ash and Ash said in unison as both their Pikachus came down from their shoulders and stood on the battlefield.

"Fennekin, let's do this! Come on out!" Serena and Serena said in unison as they both threw out their Pokéball up in the air and revealing out their precious partner from the blue light of the Pokéball.

As all of their Pokémon stood there in the battlefield ready for their trainers to command an attack, all of them stood there analysing their opponents as well as their partner for this battle. They analysed about their opponents' personality and tried to find some weaknesses whilst doing so. Ash's Pikachu was a reckless and mischievous Pokémon, Serena's Fennekin had contained a very fiery spirit when it comes to battling and was very fierce when battling, Ash's Pikachu was loyal, trusts it's trainer, and was ready for any attacks it comes in contact with, and Serena's Fennekin actually takes its personality from its trainer a lot and always liked to show it's prowess in battle. This was going to be an interesting battle…

"Hey, Serena, let's start with a stance!" Ash suggested as he glanced at his girlfriend, who was very nervous with this battle as she wasn't confident with her battling experience, which Ash then noticed. "Come on Serena, you don't need to worry as I'm here."

Serena stopped to think what Ash just said and understood what he said, and answered Ash with confidence, "Okay then, Ash! Fennekin, use Flamethrower!"

"Pikachu, Thunderbolt! Let's go!" Ash commanded Pikachu an attack and responded with no regret.

"Dodge it!" Ash and Serena said in unison.

Pikachu charged up some electricity from its body and Fennekin charged energy from its body in a form of flames, and then both Pokémon released both their attacks at the same time that made direct hit on Pikachu and Fennekin, as they didn't dodge in time and it was too late to dodge anyway, resulting on Pikachu and Fennekin stumbling on the ground and was struggled to stand up.

"Hey, Ash, let's focus all our attacks on Fennekin first, then let's get Pikachu later." Serena suggested as she looked at a very nervous and shuddering Ash and then said reassuringly, "Don't worry Ash; I'm here by your side."

"Okay then. Let's do this!" Ash said as he took up a passive stance as he commanded Pikachu to attack. "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt on Fennekin!"

"Fennekin, Hidden Power!" Serena ordered an attack, which Fennekin responded with ease.

"Fennekin, use Flamethrower!" Serena commanded Fennekin to try and avoid the attacks, but most importantly to avoid any damage.

The two Pokémon charged up their attacks – Pikachu charged its electricity whilst Fennekin created mysterious orbs from its mouth. After a few moments, the two partners released their attacks that were aimed towards Fennekin. Fennekin, who was releasing another Flamethower attack to prevent Pikachu and Fennekin's attacks from making a hit, couldn't stay strong and was overpowered by Pikachu's Thunderbolt and became fainted as a result from the massive amount of damage from those powerful attacks.

"Fennekin, no!" Serena yelled as she noticed Fennekin just lying still on the ground.

"Fennekin is unable to battle!" Clemont sadly announced as Serena returned Fennekin to its respective Pokéball.

"Come on Ash, you can do this!" Serena and Bonnie said in unison amidst the background, which Ash heard and gave both of them a grin and a wink, which Serena gave out a sigh out of attraction from.

"I cannot believe that Ash and Serena are battling as one." Clemont said realising how far Ash and Serena have come with this relationship of theirs.

"You're right on saying so, brother dear." Bonnie added as she showed her agreement with her big brother's comment.

"Pikachu, use Quick Attack and then Volt Tackle on Fennekin!" Ash said as he ordered Pikachu to carry out its signature and unusual combination of attacks.

Pikachu ran as fast as he could possibly do as a white light shone was behind him as a trail and then charged up electricity, which then covered its whole body. Pikachu continued on charging at its intended target as he maximized its speed, which made it very hard for Ash and Serena to react from. A few seconds later, Pikachu was covered with electricity and was fully charging at Fennekin; however Ash commanded Pikachu to block Pikachu's attack with an Iron Tail, which then made contact a second later. A huge smoke came from the two attacks contacting, but Pikachu had overpowered Pikachu's Iron Tail and has overcome its block resulting with Pikachu fainting, but Pikachu also took damage from recoil of its Volt Tackle.

"Pikachu is unable to battle!" Clemont announced with joy as Ash picked up Pikachu and carried it out of the battlefield; therefore it was just Ash and Serena left – the ones who were confident and were very eager on battles, the ones who take battling seriously.

"Well, it's just me and you, Serena." Ash said as he pointed out as he displayed a big grin on his face.

"I'm impressed, Ash. I got to give you credit, using Quick Attack to increase your speed for your Volt Tackle, I'm impressed." Serena said eagerly before changing her expression on her face as she took a serious stance and then said, "But, I'll win this battle! Fennekin, use Hidden Power!"

"Pikachu, reflect them back using Iron Tail!" Ash commanded; using what he learned during his past journeys in other regions.

Fennekin charged up another round of spheres with a mysterious power and fired it at Pikachu. Pikachu dodged some and jumped in the air and started to reflect the attack back at Fennekin using its Iron Tail attack. As Fennekin's Hidden Power attack were reflected back by Pikachu towards her, it made a direct hit on Fennekin causing it to fall into the ground once more, but this time it was struggling even more to get back up and to get ready to battle once again.

Ash was surprised with Serena's determination and skill at battling as well as Fennekin's strength; however he needed to finish this battle in one attack, so he announced, "Pikachu, let's finish this! Use Volt Tackle once more!"

"Fennekin, Flamethrower!" Serena ordered Fennekin as a counter-attack.

"We'll take that Flamethrower for ourselves, right Pikachu?" Ash said with a huge grin on his face. Serena, Clemont and Bonnie knew what Ash was up to, but Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie were astounded and confused as to what Ash meant about what he just said.

Pikachu ran across the battlefield once more at high speed as it started to cover itself with electricity whilst Fennekin charged up another Flamethrower attack. As Pikachu charged with its Volt Tackle, Fennekin released its Flamethrower, which directly hit at Pikachu, but Pikachu – just like what Ash said – absorbed the Flamethrower attack and was then charging at Fennekin with Volt Tackle and the added Flamethrower attack, which increased the damage that Fennekin's going to take. Pikachu made contact with Fennekin from a direct hit, which caused a great explosion of power and sent Fennekin flying across the battlefield which (obviously) resulted on Fennekin enabling to continue.

"Fennekin is unable to continue, so the winners of this Tag Battle are Ash and Serena." Clemont announced the victory, especially Ash's interesting combination with Pikachu.

"Well, that was a good battle!" Ash and Serena said as they shook hands with Ash and Serena – who just nodded with agreement.

"I have to say Ash and Serena; I think that you two have changed from when you have battled at the start, so well done to both of you." Clemont said as he congratulated the young couple. He specifically remembered them always fighting and having squabbles, but now everything was calm and graceful – he definitely noticed the difference.

"I always like a tremendous battle on both sides!" Bonnie exclaimed her excitement, which received a warm, sweet smile from everyone in the group to show their agreement.

"Anyway, we need to go back now to our world." Clemont mentioned to everyone. "If I remember correctly, the portal that Clemont opened is about to close, as it's close to sunset."

(Reflection Cave; Mirror World)

As the whole group rushed to Clemont's portal that he made this morning, they were all panting for breath, but now as they have arrived, they can relax for a few moments.

"Well, I think this is goodbye." Ash suggested as he looked at Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie.

"I guess…" Ash spoke up. "Thank you Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie for everything. You taught me a lot of things, so you have my thanks."

"No problem, Ash." Serena said. "Obviously, take care of your Serena, okay?"

"I will… with love and care…" Ash said as Serena developed a small blush on her cheeks. "Ash, take care of your Serena."

"Obviously I will." Ash said as he pulled Serena closer to him. "Just like you said, with love and care."

"Anyways, we'll see you all in the future, hopefully." Ash said as Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie started to climb over the portal and entering back into the Real World and exiting the Mirror World, as they said their goodbyes after.

As the portal closed and separating the Mirror World and the Real World once more, Clemont spoke up and said, "You know Ash, there's this saying, 'Opposites Attract'."

"Are you implying this with Ash and Serena, brother dear?" Bonnie asked with eagerness.

"Yes, but it took a while…" Clemont added. "Oh well, all's well that ends well, I suppose."


And there you have it, guys! Opposites Attract, Eventually has come to an end... :'(

Hopefully you guys enjoy this story. Please put your opinions and also improvements in the reviews, as I look forward to reading it.

I am sorry that this story is shorter than expected, but I just cannot come up with ideas - as I was just so tired after Christmas with a lot of stuff, but I managed, just...
(I mean you can see the effect of it right at the end...)

I have to say, this Mirramourshipping is quite popular amidst the Pokemon Community, but then I did include some Amourshipping. This story actually started when I was watching some YouTube videos about Amourshipping and how it was different with Mirramourshipping. As I said from the start, this story is going to be an interesting thing to write as well as reading, because Amourshipping and Mirramourshipping (in my opinion) are two very different ships between each other.

Interestingly, I had to do a lot of researching with this story, that's why it took a while to write - as I needed to know the characteristics of the different characters in this story - but hopefully, I pulled it off...

According to my cycle, I have TWO Amourshipping stories to come, so it will be Sleepless Nights and My Little Pikachu! :) (Wish me luck!)

Anyways, please keep up the support with my upcoming stories and please Personal Message me for any story ideas as well as reviewing my stories at the same time. I'll see you all in the next story!

See ya! Have a great day!
