Chapter 12.5: CALM BEFORE THE STORM

Since then, Ash was constantly hunted down by Team Rocket.

They even went as far as to corner him in a PokéCenter.

"Sorry, Blue…"

Ash felt anger.

Angrier than he had even felt before.

He knew he had to protect Cubone.

He understood.

Because he was the same.

Cubone's mother gave her life to save her child.

Delia Ketchum gave her life to bring Ash Ketchum into the world.

Mothers who sacrificed themselves for their babies.

It reminded him of the pain.

They were just orphans.

So, for the first time in his life…

He burned everything in his mind.
