Last time, Serena manages to keep Pokémon Hunter J's Pokémon in check with a battle until Officer Jenny arrives. Serena admits she was scared and collapsed, and when Ash helped her back up, they pull into a hug. A memory is unlocked in Serena when they pull away.

A while back, at Professor Oak's Summer Camp

SERENA: Wh- where is everybody?

A bush near her rustles, and a Poliwag jumps out.

SERENA: Ahh!

Serena trips and falls over in surprise and hurts her leg.

SERENA: *Starts crying* I knew I didn't want to come to this camp. I knew it! *Cries out* Mommy!

The same bush rustles, and Serena closes her eyes in fright, tears streaming down her face. Instead of a Pokémon, though, a boy's head pops up.

BOY: Poliwag?

Then, the boy turns and sees Serena sitting on the ground, crying.

ASH: Hey, what are you doing, why are you crying? I'm Ash, who are you?

SERENA: I- I hurt my leg...

Ash walks over and pulls out a blue handkerchief and wraps it tightly around her leg.

ASH: There! Now here's a good luck charm.

Ash starts waving his hands around the place Serena hurt.

ASH: Feel better, feel better, right away!

SERENA: *Tries to stand up but can't* Ow! It's no use, I can't stand up,

Ash stands up and offers Serena his hand.

ASH: Don't give up until it's over!

While Serena's hand falters a bit, Ash grabs it and pulls her into a hug. Surprised, Serena steps away.

ASH: See? You stood! *Grins* now let's get back to the campsite.

Hand in hand, Ash and Serena slowly walk back to camp, Serena in awe of the boy who just helped her.
