Pokemon - A Mystical Journey 233 Chapter 22 First rivalry of Ash and Gary

Alex was seated on the chair with the Oak family who had decided to spend their free time together before his surprise arrival.

Currently, Gary Oak was in Alex's hand and the young seven year old, Oak family's eldest daughter was miffed and pouted in front of everyone to show her anger.

" Don't be like that , Daisy. You are still young and kids must be held carefully so that they aren't hurt even accidentally." Green tried to convince her daughter.

" But why can Alex hold him and not me? He is my brother." She looked towards Alex holding her brother.

Gary was awake now and seemed to be babbling with Alex. The curious Dratini inched closer to the young infant and nuzzled her nose at Gary's face.

If it was a civilian family, they may be scared of this action of Dratini. Alex's father and mother made sure that the pokemons at home can look at the kids but not touch at least for a few months after their birth.

The Oak's just smiled looking at the gleeful look on Gary's face Alex stated," It seems like there will be another Oak joining the pokemon industry."

" Of course. He would. He is my son. He will be a strong trainer as powerful as his father." Blue declared proudly to everyone.

Almost everyone chuckled at this declaration, almost. For Green wasn't happy, and made sure to express it to others," And why can he only be a trainer. He can be a Pokemon ranger like me. " She glared at Blue daring her husband to object her demand.

" I think we can let Gary decide on his own when he grows up, though I won't mind if he becomes a professor." Samuel chimed in between the two and expressed his mind.

Alex, Daisy and the infant Gary weren't paying any attention to them. They were in their own world.

Daisy was playing with Swablu and rubbed her soft cotton and hugged her. Swablu herself liked the way Daisy was grooming her and sat on her lap.

Meanwhile the awake Gary was hanging onto Alex's neck and touched the soft scales of Dratini and reaching for Pikachu's tail.

Of course, he was also grabbing Alex's cheek, nose or hair. Alex could see naked curiousity in Gary's eyes and subconsciously muttered," He may be a Pokemon Professor in the future."

No one except Gary heard Alex and he simply smiled at Alex.

As the elders debated about Gary's future, another couple arrived there with a baby on their arms.

They were Red, Delia and their son Ash, the future chosen one.

Alex whose attention was on playing with Gary noticed their arrival due to Blue's outburst.

" Red , Delia you have finally arrived. You both are late. I bet it was Red's fault." Blue took a dig at his rival/best friend.

Red didn't like this but he didn't show it. He folded his hands and sneered back,"We are not late, idiot. Unlike a certain illiterate if you can check we are five minutes earlier than the appointed time."

Blue didn't like being called an idiot, especially by Red and rose to his feet with a bang and shouted," Who are you calling an iiliterate, you bas....?" As he was going to call Red a 'bastard' his wife's cough and hardened gaze reminded he was with kids and it won't do him well to speak such vulgar words in the presence of kids.

He just huffed and sat down again.

" Good morning, Red, Delia and you too Ash." Green greeted the Ketchum family. Ash chuckled loudly at the greeting and babbled as if greeted her back.

Green squealed at it and took Ash in her arm and spun him around,"Aww, he is so cute. " Ash waved his arms around enjoying the wind on his face.

Alex who was watching it arrived at their side and greeted them," Good morning Red, Delia."

" Alex you are here too. It is great. We can finally have our match since the league tournament is a few months away." Red said to the young man while fingering his pokeball.

Before Alex could reply, a yell of pain came out of Red's mouth as Delia had gripped his ears hard and twisted them.

" Can't you behave sometimes, Red? Look at him, he most probably arrived at pallet town today with his backpack still on him. And you want to fight him? At least let him rest and then do it " Delia scolded her husband and released her hold after that.

Red seemed to recovered from the pain pretty quickly and asked," So Alex what brings you here in pallet town? "

" Yes. I want to know too. You were guiding Mathew's daughter last time I checked?" Samuel asked his youngest protege.

Alex was ready to answer but the sudden crying of Ash stopped him.

" Uuuuuwwwwwwaaaaaaaa" he cried out in Green's arm.

She tried to calm him down but nothing worked. Delia took her son in her arm and still nothing happened.

Similarly, every adult tried but nothing worked. He wasn't hungry, wet his pants or was uncomfortable yet nothing seemed to work. When Delia was once again trying to calm her hyper active son, Alex with Gary in his arms arrived by her side to have a proper look on the future chosen one.

As he lowered his head, Ash seemed to feel his presence band grabbed onto his shirt and jumped off his mother's arms to Alex's. In his arm he after a few moments quiet down and started to play with Pikachu on Alex's shoulders.

Fortunately Alex trained himself with his pokemons or else he won't be able to hold the two kids and his two pokemons together.

Alex sat down on the chair to prevent any chance of dropping the kids and hurting them.

" What just happened?" Delia asked surprised by the change of events.

" I don't know. It may be something extraordinary or else a child may not act like this." Samuel put his fingers on his chin to think about every possible reason behind this behaviour.

Red seemed to be in thoughts too and he had some understanding what it may be related to. He used his own aura vision and truth was revealed to him. He subconsciously mumbled,

" So that was the case "

" What Happened, Red?" His wife ask as she heard her husband.

" Ash may most probably be an aura user too. Unlike me who don't use aura unless necessary, Alex is always keeping his aura active. This has an affinity for Alex in Ash.

When Ash felt Alex's aura the distance from him made feel uncomfortable and he yearned to be around him. And when he was close, he held onto him. " Red explained.

Although this was all too far fetched, unscientific and seemed completely hax but these people here knew many mysteries of the pokemon world unknown to most people.

So they felt this may be the case and didn't put much thoughts to it.

As they were in thought about Ash unexpected action, a small clash between Ash and Gary had occurred.

Before Ash arrival, Gary had both Dratini and Pikachu to play with but after his arrival, Pikachu played with Ash making him lose a companion. This wasn't liked by him and he swept his hands towards Pikachu pulling him towards himself.

Ash also held onto Pikachu to stop him from being pulled away.

Pikachu who was being pulled by kids only had various facial expressions from time to time due to their tug of war with his face.

The elders just smiled at their attics.

" It seems that the Rivalry of Red and Blue is inherited by their son." Samuel said while reminiscing the past fights of his son and his protege, Red over the years they were together.

He understood that even though both of them fought almost all the time, they understood each other even better than their wives. Their chemistry is even better than that with their wives.

He so knew that both trusted each other with their life and would protect each other from any harm and danger. He was happy to see similar bond seen in the next generation, although the fights they have before the Bonding will be a cause of many of his headches.

Red and Blue once again started to shout at one another while their son mimicked them and fought among themselves.

The action of the two generation of Ketchum and Oak family was entertaining to Samuel, Delia, Green and Alex. So none of them interrupted their plans.

Meanwhile, Daisy was happy playing with Swablu and narrated the things she did daily, what she ate, places she visited as well as the new things she learned under her grandpa, mother and father.

Finally, the round of loud discussion came to a halt while the kids had exhausted their energy and slept on Alex holding onto his shirt.

The two mother's took their son from Alex. This act disturbed their sleep and they started to sniffle, they cheered them and rocked them back to sleep.

After this, the adults sat together and drank their favourite type of tea while Alex drank the type of berry juice he liked.

Whole everyone enjoyed their drink, blue asked the youngest Trainer of the group," So what brings you to pallet town after so long and why aren't you guiding the eldest daughter of Mathew now, Alex? Did something happened?"

Alex took a deep breath and narrated," When I was in solar town,...."
