Ash held his breath tight.

The entire stadium was tense. Not that it was surprising, mostly because of the intense glare Ash and Mota were giving each other.

He finally remembered this man and his disgustingly selfish actions. This was the man who abandoned his Bulbasaur just because it wouldn't evolve. This was the man who tried to cover up the town's problems so that he could win the election. This was the man who tried to kill an innocent Pokémon just to save his image.

"You…" Ash snarled, his eyes violently shaking in anger. Pikachu was sparking aggressively, too, clearly remembering the horrible man in front of it. Surge was surprised. He had seen the boy in a state of anger before when they had their battle all those years ago, but even then his eyes didn't muster the fraction of hatred his eyes contained at this moment. 

"The question is why are you here?!" The mayor exclaimed angrily before his eyes widened. "No, I can't have you around here! All of you, arrest him! Scums like you don't deserve to roam free!"

The mayor's men nodded, bringing out different Pokémons without any hesitation. Simultaneously, all of them charged at Ash. Yet the raven-haired boy remained unhinged. 

"Pikachu, show 'em how it's done!" Ash exclaimed as the electric rodent leaped from his shoulder and charged towards the incoming Pokémons. As expected, Pikachu knocked all of those Pokémons back toward where they came from, surprising everyone. The crowd expected the little rodent to struggle after being tired from battling all day, but to think it was still able to demolish them so effortlessly.

"What are you fools doing?! How hard is it to take down a simple Pikachu!" The mayor screamed angrily, not able To realise the actual threat Ash's Pikachu was.

The men commanded their Pokémons once again, telling them to strike Pikachu with all their might. The Pokémons charged up their attacks, only to be struck down by a powerful Thunderbolt that left all of them dozing. Surprisingly, the move wasn't launched by Pikachu, but instead an Electavire.....Lt.Surge's Elecitvire to be exact.

"Enough!" The former war veteran yelled, causing the men in black to flinch. Even Mota flinched slightly at Surge's harshness. "What do you think you all are doing?! Attacking someone without any reason?!"

"That should be my question?!" Mota angrily replied. "Do you even know what you did?! You just interfered with my men from arresting this brat! This scum! How dare you defy me?!"

The people's eyes widened, while some winced a little.

"What did you just say?!" Ash angrily asks, enraged by the fact that he was not only being labelled as a scum, but it was by the hands of someone like Mota. Lt. Surge put a hand in front of him, motioning him to stop.

"Scum?" Lt. Surge remarked, confused. "Then tell me what did this biy even do to be considered a scum?"

"Are you questioning me?! Do you even have any idea who I am?!" Mato gritted his teeth, enraged that Lt. Surge even tried to ask him a question! Was he asking him, Mota, for proof? How dare this worthless elite four doubt him! Does he not know who he is? He is the mayor of this town! If he wants, he can not only arrest him but stripe away his elite four titles just with a snap of his finger.
