Ash's POV


I ran back to the Professor's place and went to sleep. The next day, I went to the school and decided to tell everyone about Serena.

"Guys! I have something to tell you all," I said, standing in front of the class. They all looked at me with questioning faces.

"What is it, Ash?" Lillie asked.

"Yeah, what is it?" Mallow asked as well.

"It turns out, one of my old traveling companions is taking a vacation here in Alola this week. Her name is Serena, and she's-"

"A Pokemon Performer?!" Mallow squealed as she stood up from her desk.

"Yeah, how'd you know?" I asked.

"I watched all of her performances on TV! She's such a great performer! I'm one of her biggest fans!" she replied.

"Cool! And you're right, she is a great performer. It's really quite something watching those showcases in Kalos. Maybe you guys could go to Kalos one day and watch one."

"Sounds great!" everyone said.

"So are we going to meet Serena?" Sophocles asked.

"Yup. Yesterday I asked her if she would meet all of us at the beach today, around noon."

"Awesome! I'm so excited!" Mallow said, sitting back down at her desk. "Maybe she can do a little performance, just for us!"

"I don't know. When I talked with her yesterday, she said she was pretty stressed in Hoenn from all the practicing, so she may not be ready," I said.

"Hoenn? I thought she lived in Kalos?" Lillie asked, confused.

"After she lost to Aria in the Master Class, she decided to get some experience in Hoenn so she will be a better performer. I honestly thought Serena should have one that thing."

"Me too!" all the girls replied.

"I know she'll win next time!" Mallow said. "I believe in her!"

I nodded. "Me too. Serena's strong, so even if she doesn't win, she'll be okay. We will always support her, no matter what," I said, looking up at the ceiling, thinking back to when we talked on the porch step the day she lost the Master Class.

They all nodded. "It's pretty close to noon, isn't it?" said Professor Kukui. "You all should probably get ready."

Everyone agreed, so they went to get bathing suits and beach supplies, and I went back to the Professor's place to get my stuff.

When everyone was ready, we checked the clock. We had 15 minutes to get there. Plenty of time to walk to the beach, so we all went there together.

When we got there, Serena wasn't there yet, probably because we were early, so we waited for her. They all knew what she looked like, so they would easily be able to spot her. I don't know why, but it felt like it took forever for her to get there.

Serena's POV


Ack! I'm gonna be late! I went shopping for way too long!

I ran out of the market I had decided to visit; I picked out some ingredients to try and make everyone Poke Puffs, because I had assumed no one here has ever had them, unless they went to visit Kalos, of course. But I don't think I will have time to make some for everyone...

I quickly ran to the hotel and baked 'em up. I tried to make them pretty, but I was rushing so I would get to the beach on time to meet Ash, and whoever he brought with him for me to meet.

Once I was done, I placed them in the little Poke Puff basket I usually used and ran to the beach, being careful not to trip over anything. I had just left everything in my beach bag from yesterday to save time, and thank goodness I did so.

I soon saw Ash and waved, out of breath.

"Sorry I was... late... tried to get... something last... minute," I panted and collapsed onto the sand. he chuckled. "You didn't have to, Serena, but thanks!"

We smiled at each other, and I blushed a little.

"Well Serena, meet my new friends!"
