Glaceon's POV

We reached a place where there are rocks piled on top of each other; formed like the roots of our nest without roof and flowers, it felt cold and rough like the boulders near the cliff of our home. In front, are two guards standing on what looked like carved rocks with light emanating inside. As we came closer the two guards came close and asked questions. I could see the hostility in their eyes, cold and menacing; like the Sneasel that harmed us. My human held his hands high and was begging.

He called himself Davy. I could not understand why he calls himself that. As I waited, I could not understand the reason why we had to bow to these humans. I readied myself as the guards threw a round object on the ground. Suddenly inside the balls came out two big creatures that I have never seen before. Fascination and wonder filled my mind; I knew we had to face them, but before I could do anything my human ordered me to stop. I kept my eyes on the two creatures, knowing they are stronger and more skilled than I am; I will not make the mistake of overestimating myself.

Not long after the two humans gave the order to attack. As they rushed at me, I kept my distance with my new found speed and agility; I could feel I became stronger and faster as my evolution. The firm grip of my legs, the control I had on my body felt liberating. I am no longer the young Eevee I once was. I sent a few attacks on the two creatures everytime they tried to get close. Suddenly, I noticed a big thing coming from above. It landed right in the middle between us, and then a woman shouted as the two guards made way for her. Instinctively I knew she was the leader of the group.

She ordered the other humans to take my human. I tried to fight back but the creature captured me. I tried to bite it but it seems my attack couldn't damage him. I wondered; Was following this human the right decision?

Back to present

Davy told his story from the start, as he tells his story, he could see the change in mood from Cynthia and Rowan; he could not see the reaction of the Alakazam beside him as it is focusing on using its psychic powers to read Davy's memory. Davy could feel his mind being read; he was washed with discomfort and goosebumps every time the Alakazam moves its spoons. As he finished his story, the Alakazam looked amazed and at the same time wary.

"What's wrong?" Rowan asked.

"Ala Alaka" as he points at Glaceon.

Professor Rowan couldn't understand what he meant but Cynthia had an idea on what he wants to do.

"You want to scan Glaceons memory?"

"Alaka Alakazam!" He perked up and started to go over to where Glaceon is sitting.

Glaceon growled as the Alakazam approaches her, clearly, she doesn't want him to do anything to her.

"Glaceon, it's fine, he won't hurt you." Davy reassured.

Glaceon still distrustful, starts to lower the temperature of the room. Davy tried to calm her by holding her. His hands started to get cold as Glaceons temperature started to plummet. Seeing the two, Cynthia made her decision.

"If you can't control your Glaceon we will have to use force if she gets violent." Cynthia warned Davy.

"It's fine It's fine, Glaceon please listen to me, we can't fight here it'll only get bad for us if we do, please! trust me!" Davy pleaded. Glaceon finally calmed down, but hostility could still be seen in her eyes. Cynthia seeing this kneeled in front of Glaceon and looked at her in its eyes as she reaches her hand.

'We won't hurt you or your trainer, I promise that in my name as the champion of Sinnoh league." Cynthia waited until Glaceon calmed down before asking Alakazam to read her memories.

She reached on her pockets and took out an oran berry. "It won’t be long Glaceon, you'll feel a slight discomfort, but dont resist it. It will be fine."

Finally, as Alakazam started scanning her memory, Davy could see the discomfort from her, he knew how disgusting it felt to have your mind read and memories scanned. He held Glaceon on his lap and started petting her.

Time flies by as the yellow pokemon finished scanning her memory. With wide eyes and expression that can only be depicted as astonishment and surprise he gestured at Cynthia and professor Rowan to get close. As they came closer Alakazam started using its powers again, this time on Cynthia and professor Rowan.

Davy watched as the pokemon used its powers to show them what he saw in their memories. Davy started to worry if they will accept him as a person from another world or not. The thought of being used as a test subject and being disected came to his mind. All the possible scenarios that could happen came rushing as he started to get into a trance like manner.

Professor Rowan and Cynthia finally saw the memories Davy had, A sense of fear and excitement came over them as the idea of another world is too valuable to pass out. They never thought that there would be a place where pokemon does not exist; In some parts of the world just the mere mention of a world without pokemon is blasphemy and have serious consequences. Yet here they are meeting a person not from this world; seeing this phenomenon that science couldn't explain. What could be the reason for his arrival? is this the will of Arceus? Theories and Ideas came to their mind before addressing Davy.

"Wow." A sigh of astonishment came out from Rowans mouth. he could already think of many new experiments and research that would come up because of Davy's existence, he also knew the potential danger of Davy's arrival.

"I'm sorry Mr. Davy, but can we have a moment for ourselves?" Cynthia asked before leaving without waiting for Davys' answer.

Cynthia and Rowan's POV

As they came out of the interrogation, they walked in silence until they reached a room where no one was inside.

"This is amazing!" Rowan exclaimed. "The amount of research that opened up because of him is huge! Do you get it Cynthia! this is like a fever dream!" Professor Rowan couldn't contain his excitement.

"Calm down professor. I know this situation is... Unbelievable but we have to keep a calm mind." Cynthia seeing Professor Rowan's excitement tried to keep herself level headed, hiding her own excitement and amazement, she tried to think logically.

"Forgive me for getting ahead of myself." Professor Rowan calmed down.

"We have to protect him" Cynthia said to Professor Rowan with a serious look, the one she uses when acting as the champion of sinnoh.

Seeing her serious face professor Rowan leashed in his excitement and tried to think logically. "We can't let anyone know about him, especially the remnants of team galactic. We have to hide what happened here."

"I'll take care of the latter, for now we need to get an ID for him, and then get him settled down somewhere."

"I think I know someone who can be his guarantor." Cynthia smiled as she said it to professor Rowan.

"Oh? care to tell me who it is?"

Cynthia smiled more as she looks at professor Rowan intently.

It took some time for professor Rowan to realized who she meant. "You don't mean....me, right?"

"Who else is better suited to be a guarantor? You're a good professor and well known in your studies of pokemon. Surely you'd be the best one to be his guarantor." Professor Rowan thinks deeply before replying to Cynthia. He thought deeply at the matter, the advantages and disadvantages of having an alien human on his wing would be challenging, but the amount of research he could do with him nearby will be easy.'

"Alright."

"That was fast. I thought you'd wait until tomorrow to decide."

"Urgent matters, need urgent answers."

"We'll said, so, let's go back to our friend because I know, I'm not the only one with questions."

Davy's POV

It's been half an hour since they left, I sat there with Glaceon on my lap, her smaller stature than most of the other Glaceon made it easier for me to carry her. She looked as anxious and stressed me from all that happened. It's her first time meeting other humans aside from me, and she saw her partner get taken away and jailed. I don't know what happened to her, but it seems like she was treated well. " Are you alright Glaceon? I'm sorry your first experience with meeting other humans is like this. It must be very stressful for you, I'm sorry."

I felt like it was my fault for bringing her with me. I should have refused when she tried to go with me. As time goes by, more and more thoughts came to mind, slowly eating away at my insides as I could feel my stomach start to hurt again. I tried to ignore the pain, the more I am conscious of it the more I will feel it. Not long as I continued to drown myself with deprecating thoughts of myself. The doors of the room opened as a guard came in.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

"Come you're out, follow me."

I followed the guard outside of the house. as we walked the streets’ I could see many people going about with their lives. Pokemons roam the street, the kids played with the local pokemon, workers shoveling the snow that piled up in the road, I could see some of the snow going inside windows like thieves that left their ropes. As we go on and on, walking in one direction I noticed large trees outside the city, they looked like pine trees but considering this is another world and is from pokemon, they probably aren’t the same.

"We're here, go inside the house they're waiting there."

We finally reached a large house that looked more like a mansion than a house. I opened the door and saw a Sneasel sitting down on one of the chairs near the stairs. We both stiffened up, Glaceon instantly tried to send a swift at it before I stopped her. Glaceon trembled as she looked at the Sneasel, my hands can't stop shaking no matter how much I tried to calm myself. The fight with the Sneasels' before might have given us trauma. The Sneasel stood up and walked up to us, He reached one of his claws at Glaceon but met with a growl from her. I slowly backed down, my breathing start to go faster, my face paled and I start to sweat like a waterfall. The Sneasel stood there confused, he tried to get close to us once again. This time I picked up Glaceon and hugged her, ready to run anytime the Sneasel tries to do something.

Giving up, the Sneasel pointed at the stairs and start to walk. He finally disappeared behind the cover of the walls, I let out a sigh of relief and Glaceon stopped trembling. I realized how bad our trauma is. I fell to my knees releasing all the tension I had. Glaceon snuggled below my arms and tried to make me stand up. moments passed, I finally got hold of myself and stood up before petting Glaceon.

"Thanks princess, I don't know what I would do without you." Glaceon seem happy that I called her princess, colors started to come back to my face and we continued walking up the stairs. We found a single room at the rightside of the mansion where we could hear people talking. I knocked at the door.

"Come in!"

"Excuse us."

Inside the room there's many old furniture that looked antique, on the side of the room theres a chimney and a few trophies and wood, In the middle of the room sat 3 people, the two of them is professor Rowan and Cynthia, the other one I do not recognize.

"Thank you for lending us this place Candice."

"It's nothing madam Cynthia! You can ask me anything you want!" The young girl glaced at Glaceon before leaving the room.

"Sit down Davy, and make yourself comfortable." Professor Rowan gestured.

I felt nervous, not knowing what to expect.

"So, Davy, you really aren't from this world based on the memories we saw from Alakazam, and we have a lot of questions for you." Professor Rowan was smiling as he told me this.

"We only saw fragments of your memory and from what you told us from your story, it seems like you died?" Cynthia asked showing genuine confusion.

"Yes, I also thought I died, until I saw a glowing silhouette embracing my entire body, and the next thing I know, I'm already in this world." As expected, they looked shocked, but I didn't expect to see Glaceon the most shocked one.

I remember I now, I didn't tell her or any of the Glaceons of my past, I felt a urge to apologize to her to but was cut-offed by professor Rowan.

"Oh, my Arceus!"

"What's the matter professor?" Cynthia asked connfused.

"Cynthia I'm sure you know who created sinnoh right?"

"Yes? Why?"

"Do you remember what the legends are about Arceus?!"

"I don't get where you're going professor."

"Goodness Cynthia! Arceus! I'm talking about Arceus!"

"Yeah, I know, but what's your point?"

"Davy said he saw a glowing silhouette embracing his body! And you know what the legends of old says about Arcues!"

Cynthia's eyes widened, at her realization, while I was left assuming what they're talking about. "Um... are you saying Arceus is the one who saved me and bought me to this world?"

"Yes! There is a high chance you we're bought here by the almighty Arceus!" It took a while before professor Rowan calmed down and we started to talk again.

"It's just a speculation right now but if there's a chance its true..." Professor Rowan omitted his words, letting me think of the rest.

"Let's take a break before continuing, I feel like Mr. Davy here likes to get a drink?"

"J-just call me Davy please miss Cynthia."

"Then you can also call me Cynthia, Davy."

After a few minutes, they all came back and started to ask Davy more questions. "How was your world like Davy?" Cynthia asked.

"I don't any difference right now, aside from the pokemon and the amount of nature you have."

"You don't have this much greenery on your home?"

"No, most of it was cut-down for industrial innovation and to accommodate more houses."

"What about the pokemon? I mean the creatures that lives there?"

"Some of them got extinct, some are protected by the law and others are used for cattle. " Davy answered honestly

Both of them was shocked to hear that as the thought of destroying pokemon's habitat is considered a crime in their world. Davy, with his lack of conversational skills, does not know how to start a conversation, so the atmosphere got awkward.

"Ehem! So, Davy you we're attacked by two Sneasels right? And you said you we're saved by a group of Glaceons, could you tell us how it happened?" Davy forgot to say the details of that time while he was retelling his story so this time, he told them all the details.

"....."

"...."

"Is something wrong?"

"You're not lying right?" Cynthia asked.

Confused on why they reacted like that he answered. "I have no reason to lie. is there something wrong with what I said?"

"...."

"...."

Anxiety started to build up inside Davy once again, not knowing why the two of them became silent, his eyes wandered around the room.

"So, you ate the berries that the Glaceons and Eevee's gave, and after just a few days your wounds are healed, am I right?" Professor Rowan asked Davy with a serious face.

"Y..yes That's right."

Professor Rowan stood up and starts to walk back and forth while Cynthia just stared at Davy. A few minutes passed in silence before professor Rowan sat beside Davy and started to stare at him up close. Glaceon got angry at the sudden move but professor Rowan disregarded her.

"You don't seem like a pokemon in disguise."

"Excuse me?!"

Professor Rowan continued walking back and forth for 10 more minutes before sitting back and looking at Davy in the eyes.

"It’s not possible."

"Pardon?"

"Getting healed by berries that fast is not possible." Professor Rowan continued."The most that berries can do is heal minor wounds like scratches on humans, unlike pokemon that healing power is diluted on us humans. No matter how much we try to enhance the potions we make, the effect is always halved on us."

Davy listened to what professor Rowan have said before his mind wandered. 'Wait so how was I able to heal that fast? Is this some sort of super power given to me because I'm transported? It's kinda lame but I guess it’s better than nothing. This is also the world of pokemon, does that mean I can use moves if I train? If I..."

Davy couldn't hear that professor Rowan was saying, his mind was once again distracted, unable to concentrate.

"Davy? Davy?!" Cynthia noticed the trance like condition Davy was in and called out to him.

"Huh? Sorry did you say something?"

"So, I was saying, I have three possible theories: One, that the humans in your world have abilities that were awakened when you ate the berries; two, that Arceus granted you this ability for reasons unknown, though there should be a purpose; and lastly, that you might have become some sort of Pokémon."

"How do we know what's the right one professor?" Cynthia asked.

"I don't know how to prove the number one point, but I have an idea on how we can test out the other two possibilities." Professor rowan took out a phone like gadget and a pokeball. "First we'll scan you through a pokedex to see if you have an ability, and second, is to throw a pokeball at you."

Davy stiffened at the thought of being a pokemon. He could imagine himself being summoned in battle to fight a legendary bird, led by a kid with a red and white cap. Despite the fear of becoming a pokemon, he agreed to do the test, his curiosity won over his fear this time.

"Wouldn't the pokedex only scan pokemon that has already been documented?" Cynthia asked professor Rowan doubting this method.

"Normally yes, but this is a pokedex designed to only record abilities of pokemons without the other trainers consent."

"Isn't that illegal?" Cynthia asked frowning.

"It is if you are not a professor like me who needs to do research, and we also signed a nondisclosure agreement in order to use this. Now Davy, stand right there and stay still." Professor Rowan pointed at the chimney and started to open the pokedex. Davy stood there for a few seconds, driven by anticipation everyone in the room it felt like an hour has passed. Moments later the pokedex finally answered

Error No Abilities Can Be Scanned Around This Area.

Frowning, professor Rowan tried to scan Glaceon.

Snow Cloak raises ability-bearer's evasion by 20% in a hail storm. It also gives immunity to damage by hail.

Glaceon hissed at professor Rowan, she clearly doesn't like getting scanned without permission.

Professor Rowan scanned himself next.

Error No Abilities Can Be Scanned Around This Area.

"Well, I guess it doesn't work."

"Why did you think it would work?” Cynthia said, jokingly.

Davy let out a breath he didn't know he was helding, a sign of relief could be seen in his face as he sits back down. Professor Rowan took out a pokeball next.

"Alright Davy, stay still this will not take long."

Davy closed his eyes waiting for the ball to land at him. Everyone in the room was nervous aside from Glaceon who does not understand what's happening. Moments passed as professor Rowan threw the ball. Cynthia and professor Rowans' eyes followed the ball as it travels in line towards Davy, they could hear the pulse of their hearts as they wait for the result.

The pokeball finally landed on Davys' head, yet nothing happened. Davy opened his eyes and looked at the fallen pokeball on the ground, it had the perfect round shape it had, showing signs of not being used. Davy picked it up and looked at both of them. "So, what now."

"We can take a sample and bring it to the lab. It will take some time to get the results, but it should be our best bet." Professor Rowan then took out a vial, a syringe, and a knife.

"I need to take your blood and a bit of your flesh for proper analysis."

Davy gulped as he was never good with needles. Professor Rowan held his hand and put rubbing anesthesia before taking some blood, afterwards he did the same and took a bit of flesh from Davys' arm. Waiting for a few moments as they wait professor Rowan finish packing up the samples, Cynthia asked.

"What do you plan to do now?"

"I... don't know." Davy have no money and his knowledge about pokemon is outdated, the only thing he is confident about is type advantages aside from fairy types which he has no idea about.

"What do you think about working for professor Rowan?"

Davys' POV

Cynthia's offer surprised me. It didn't even cross my mind to work for professor Rowan. Considering the field of work they are part of, I don't think I will be helpful considering my "curse".

"I don't think I can help professor Rowan. I am not someone who could do research and studying, I'm actually bad at it."

"It's fine. There's more to it than just research and studies. You can ask Professor Rowan himself; I'm sure he has a job for you. Besides, you don't really have a place to go right now, do you?"

‘It makes sense, I don't really have a place I can go. If its Kanto, Johto, or Hoenn I could think of some places to go and get a job. If I work for professor Rowan, I can also get to know more people and learn faster about the world and this region, I could earn some money and a place to stay if I agreed... but what if I get fired? what if I don't do well? As my thoughts start to go out of control’, I could feel a cold sensation beside me. Glaceon sat beside me as she looked at my eyes, I havent noticed it, but she was looking out for me since we came reached Snowpoint city. Her constant presence has been the only comfort in this stressful place I've been thrown into. Looking at her, I remembered the promise I made with Josh before the accident. "Live and keep on living."

"Hmm?"

"Can I talk to professor Rowan?" Cynthia smiled as I gave my answer.
