"And for tonight's special guest give it up for the one and only brilliant academy winner and oscar winner...Ash Ketchum!"

Ash smiled as he walked on stage and waved at the wild audience before him.

Brock laughed at his best friend's cool moves before he shook his hand and led him to sit down on one of the couches.

"So Ash. My man. My brother. My compadre! Tell us. What is new in your life? I heard you recently got engaged to a beauty of a journalist who works for TIME magazine."

Ash laughs lightly at Brock's teasing.

"Yeah. I recently proposed to my college girlfriend. Something I should've done years ago."

"Tell me about it! It says in our sources you brought her all the way from Portland. That's way on the other side of the country- what in God's name were you doing all the way there?!"

The audience laughs at Ash's blushing face.

"I was actually in Portland for a business meeting. I was getting permission to use a location for my upcoming film when I bumped into her and hey- the rest is history."

"What was she doing over there in Portland?"

Ash looks at Brock then is silent for a moment. As if he were remembering all last month's events.

"She was chasing her dream. Her dream ended up being here all along. However, I was also chasing something as well."

"What was it?"

"I was chasing destiny... without planning it. I was chasing destiny which happened to be her. She was my destiny."

I had no idea what inspired me to write this story at 3 in the morning. Sorry for any grammar errors. I was still half asleep.
