Chapter 36 - A promise to KEEP....

'Is it wise for me to show them that? Ash did give it to me in my birthday and said the I should use it if I need it, but it may risk our secret.' Elena thought weighing her options as she bathe at the hot water descending on her.

'Why did I mention that I have proof that the Sky Pillar exist in Mount Coronet in the first place, I think I got overly excited again and I had to run my mouth. Ash would probably scold me if I let my team explore one of Arceus Holy Land.' Elena thought as she turned off the shower and exited the shower room. She then dried off and covered her body with a bath robe after wearing some undergarments. She was about to exists when she heard a ring on her phone, the very phone that she used to contact Ash.

Elena, after pausing for just a second, quickly grabbed the phone and answers the call. "Hello Ash." Elena greeted happily after seeing the face of her beloved via electronic image.

"Hey beautiful, I hope I'm not disturbing anything." Ash said as he smiled at seeing his beloved.

"You're not disturbing anything loved, I've just got out of the shower and it is pretty slow today." Elena replied as she leaned to the nearest wall. "What in the hell have you been doing? You've looked like you've been in a war." Elena added as she noticed Ash's exhausted faced.

"Just training a little, I got to stay in top shape in order to control my Aura." Ash said in seriousness. "So what have you been doing in the past five days since you arrive?" Ash inquired with curiosity in his voice.

"It's been pretty boring really. We have no new artifact to study and no new ruins to explore. We don't even have an expedition plan." Elena sighed in disappointment. Ash laughed softly before offering a comforting smile.

"Come on loved, don't be like that. You'll have an adventure soon enough." Ash said reassuringly.

Elena looked at Ash before giving him a small smiled. "You may be right, if father accept the job, my team and I may have a long adventure." Elena said before remembering what region that adventure will take place. "All throughout Sinnoh." Elena added with a glimmer in her eyes.

It only took Ash a split-second to realize the implications of what Elena said before exploding in happiness. "You mean, you actually mean, that you'll be in Sinnoh, in this region, for a long time because of that job." Ash asked with happiness and hope in his voice.

Elena giggled at her lover's reaction but she answered nonetheless. "Yeah, if my father accept the job."

"You do know that I could fly over there and 'persuade' (more like threaten) your father to accept the job." Ash offered as his eyes glowed bluish.

Elena laughed uncomfortably before shaking her head into a no."I wouldn't mind you doing something like that but were going to have a lot to explain to my friends and my father." Elena said with a humorous tone.

"Yeah, I'm not really excited to explain to my friends why I'm secretly dating the most beautiful girl in this world, well not yet anyway." Ash said which cause Elena to blush because of Ash's compliment.

"So, where are you know and why are you so pissed off that you would destroy a training ground?" Elena asked shrugging off the blush on her face.

"I didn't destroy everything." Ash said in defense. Elena looked at him which said 'really, Ash'.

"Then why is there smoke coming from behind you." Elena asked as she pointed at the image behind Ash.

Ash glanced behind him to see some smoking craters that he made during training. Ash sweat drop at the sight and hung his head in embarrassment. "I got carried away again." Ash sighed in embarrassment.

"You always get carried away love." Elena said humorously. Ash glance at her and sighed.

"Yeah, you're probably right. I'm in Twinleaf Town by the way." Elena perked up at the mention of that town.

"Twinleaf, why are you in the hometown of that Dawn girl."Elena asked in a curious manner with a minimum amount of jealousy.

"Yeah, her mother invited us for some festival that's happening in Twinleaf." Ash explained in a bored a manner.

Elena thought for a moment before remembering something. "I remember now, every year there is a festival being held in that town. I also hear that there's going to be Pokémon tournament this year, hosted by the Frontier Brain, Tower Tycoon Palmer." Elena informed which caught Ash's attention.

"A tournament huh, and hosted by a Frontier Brain, interesting. Pikachu and I would love to battle him, especially that Pikachu have perfected magnetic manipulation." Ash exclaimed which Elena giggle.

"You're kidding me Ash, are you? You're actually going to battle seriously, for a change." Elena exclaimed with humor lacing her voice.

Ash merely looked at Elena softly. "I promise you." Elena eyes were fixed to Ash after hearing that. "I promise you that I'll start battling seriously with the Pokémon who could actually hang with me and I always keep my promises, especially to you." Ash said with passion in every word.
