Pokemon; Freshman Ash

May, Misty, and Anabel didn't change much when they heard what Dawn said, and all smiled knowingly. Pikachu on the shoulder also jumped into Misty's arms very understandingly.

On the side of Lake Verity, Ash and Dawn walked side by side, neither of them spoke. "Ash, thank you for taking care of me this time" Dawn said suddenly.

"Don't be so serious," Ash said with a smile.

"No" Dawn shook his head and said seriously, "Ash, you know? I've always been used to having you by my side, helping me to solve all kinds of difficulties. Gradually, I can't imagine not having What will happen if you and I travel alone?"

"Yeah?".

"Well, if you encounter any difficulties, as long as you are by my side, you will be very at ease, because you will definitely have a way to solve them. In my heart, I don't know when you have become so high

"Ha, haha" Ash felt a little embarrassed when he heard Dawn praise him like that.

"But" Dawn, who was walking in front, lowered his head, "I feel that I am getting farther and farther away from you."

"ha?".

"You are invincible in gymnastics battles, Lily of the Valley Conference, even if the opponent is a strong enemy with beasts, you can defeat him. At that time, I felt that I could not catch up with you." Dawn thinks of himself 02 say

"Until President Damaranch granted you the status of Elite, apart from being happy for you, I was more afraid. Because the distance from you has been gradually unable to catch up. You are the Elite of Sinnoh Region, and I have just become Top Coordinator.

Moreover, most of this top Coordinator depends on you and Anabel's Help."

Dawn knew that without Ash and Anabel's selfless sparring and Coaching, she would never have been able to beat Zoey. She felt some gaps in the battle between Zoey and Shang Zai in the semi-finals.

Looking at Dawn who looked down and looked a little disappointed, Ash wanted to persuade her not to care about these "Dawn, actually".

"So" Dawn turned around and looked at him with a smile, "I'm going to try alone. Ash, I'm going to Hoenn and Chengdu next. Start from scratch, challenge Hoenn and Chengdu's Contest, and become the strongest in the world Top Coordinator".

Looking at Dawn who is full of fighting spirit, Ash also laughed, "Then you have to work hard, remember not to cry when you encounter difficulties."

"Yeah, I won't cry." Dawn immediately retorted loudly.

"Well" Ash said seriously "Dawn, I believe you can do it"

Dawn was slightly startled, and then laughed, "Ash, you have to work hard to challenge the Unova Alliance. You are already an Elite but you still fail the challenge. That would be shameful."

Ash shook his head and said confidently, "Don't worry, absolutely not."

"Then I wish you success, by the way, before that" Dawn walked up to Ash "There is still one thing to do"

"What's the matter?" Ash asked with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, a gust of fragrant wind hit, and Dawn hugged the back of Ash's neck with both hands, "close your eyes first".

"Dawn, I...".

"Hurry up, I'm shy too." Dawn, who didn't dare to look at Ash because of his flushed face, lowered his head and said anxiously.

"good"

Seeing that Ash closed his eyes, Dawn took a deep breath and tiptoed slightly, "You must not open it until I tell you to open it."

"Um"

It feels soft on the lips, with a hint of sweetness. While Ash was surprised, there was heat in his ears, and it was Dawn's soft voice "Ash, I like you".

Ash still didn't open his eyes, and Dawn, whose face was already flushed, leaned into Ash's arms.

"Now I can open my eyes."

Ash opened his eyes and looked at Dawn who buried his head in his arms.

"I'm sorry, Dawn, I'm sorry for Misty, May them"

"I like it too, right?" Dawn raised his head, looked at Ash's shocked expression and then laughed, "You really think I can't see it, don't worry, Ash, I won't let you choose one by force. You are troubled."

"I'm sorry..." Apart from apologizing, Ash really didn't know what to say.

Light white fingers were placed in front of Ash, and Dawn in his arms shook his head, "I don't want to hear this, Ash, have you ever liked me? Even a little bit is fine."

"Definitely more than a little!" Ash said immediately.

"That's enough." Dawn smiled and buried her head in Ash's arms again, "Let me hug you again."

"Hmm..." Ash also reached out and hugged Dawn's slender waist.

On the side of Lake Verity, the two hugged each other quietly. And then Mesprit's spirit reappeared on the lake, just like when they first saw each other, only without Piplup and Pikachu.

In front of the house, Dawn and Johanna waved goodbye to the five Ash who were about to leave. Until the five of them drifted away, Johanna took a fancy to Dawn, "Have you conveyed your heart to Ash?"

"Um"

"What about Ash's reply".

"I didn't ask Ash to answer." Dawn shook his head, "Just knowing that Ash likes me is enough."

"You child" Johanna sighed helplessly, but this is something Dawn decides, and it's not good for her to interfere too much.

Watching Ash go away, Dawn whispered "Goodbye, Ash, I will catch up with you soon" in a voice that I could only hear

Before Harbor in Twinleaf Town, May will return to Hoenn, and Anabel will return to Chengdu. Ash, Xiaogang and Misty are going back to Kanto. Although Kanto and Chengdu are very close, Anabel still did not choose to take the same boat with Ash.

Before leaving, May hugged Ash again "Ash, goodbye. Like Dawn, I will continue to challenge Hoenn and Sinnoh's Contest Conference, and become the top Coordinator to catch up with you"

"You can do it"

"Thanks".

After leaving Ash's arms, because the boat was about to leave, May immediately grabbed Xiaosheng and boarded the boat. On the deck, the two and the four of Ash waved goodbye.

After the boat gradually went away, Xiao Sheng asked, "Sister, have you confessed your love?"

"No" May blushed and shook her head.

"Ah, then you came back all the way from Hoenn just to watch Ash's final, ouch, it hurts!" Xiao Sheng covered his head that was hit by 353 May's fist.

"Come on, I'm useless with Ben" May said angrily, "What about watching the finals, the S.S Ticket and tickets are very worthwhile to see such finals."

"That's right," Xiaosheng muttered, "but if you don't confess, you always feel that Ash will be snatched away by sisters Misty, Dawn, and Anabel."

"Don't worry, it won't," May said very confidently.

"Why?"

"Secret" May deliberately kept it a secret.

In fact, she ran into Misty who ran out of Ash's room that night. Under May's questioning, she could only tell the whole story, but May must keep the secret.

"I know Ash likes me too, this time it's not the reason" Xiaoda thought to himself.

As for Anabel, Ash gave Anabel the Metagross knight and the keystone before parting. Because Anabel also has a Metagross that can mega-evolve, unlike Ash, who is just a Common Metagross.

"Thank you, I'll keep it safe." Anabel looked at the two Purple cobblestones in his hand and said, "Ash, Misty, Xiaogang. Goodbye."

When the three said goodbye in unison, Anabel threw himself into Ash's arms and hugged her, tiptoeing and whispering in his ear, "Ash, I will be going to Unova soon. Remember to wait for me."

"must".

After the three of them bid farewell to Anabel, Ash looked at Xiao Gang and Misty beside him. These two met at the beginning, and the partners who have been with them for the longest time "Let's go, we should be Kanto craftsmen". .
