Another day in Lively Town has passed by quickly. Now it was dawn, and the view from my window was illuminated by a rosy red sky.I woke up, finally with SonicBlade(Combusken) by my side, smiling. I stood and walked to the kitchen, looking at the well-lit Expedition Society base, until I reached the kitchen, where I started making pancakes long before Abby(Swirlix) woke up, and wondered if I should call my old friend. But as I did so, Alyssa(Mawile) woke up and was watching me, and it wasn't until I turned around that I saw her.

The very moment I spotted her, I jumped. “Oh… Alyssa, you scared the living crap outta me.” She giggled and said, “Sorry, Yasha(Narrator/Riolu)… I forgot to tell you that I get up early.” I sighed. “I assume you smelled the pancakes.” I said. Alyssa nodded. “Yeah, I did.” She said, smiling at me. “I love pancakes.”

“Who doesn't?”

“See? That's exactly what I mean!”

“Well, of course I know! You told me for the first 5 days I started cooking…”

“Well, you should know! It was back when we… er… before we broke up.”

I sighed. “Besides… I just like pancakes. It's been a year since I made one… you want a taste? I improved my recipe…”

“Sure thing!”

I handed her a small bit of a finished pancake, and she looked as if she was in heaven after eating it. I soon sighed and said, “Alyssa… do you think… you could convince Ampharos to let me and SonicBlade go home?”

“Well… does this mean you’re quitting?”

“No, we’re still members! I’m just wondering if we could do our work while we’re in Serene Village!”

“Well, sure. I can try. But you’re staying here in the meantime, got it?” I nodded. I was willing to go home, because there was a girl there I never saw in a while.

Days later, at midnight, I spotted her talking to Ampharos. “They haven’t been to Serene Village in years, sir!” She said, almost in a panicked tone. Ampharos stated, “But this is crazy! They wanted to stay for this long, Alyssa. Why do they want to go back?”

“It’s their friends, their home… besides, they promised to do their work from there. They’re not leaving us, boss.” She said, sighing.

“Ok. But promise me this… promise me that you’ll get them to visit once in a while, ok?”

Alyssa smiled. “Will do, sir!” She said, excitedly. I soon snuck back into my room.

The next morning, we were called to Alyssa’s research station. I arrived and asked, “What's up?” Alyssa smiled at me. “He told me to make sure you two would visit this HQ once in a while. Otherwise, you can go.” I nodded and told her, “I’ll be sure to bring in any new recipes for you guys to eat. I’ll also be bringing someone along if I’m lucky enough.”

Alyssa smiled at me, then turned to SonicBlade. “SonicBlade… promise us you’ll do the same. I don’t want it to end up like when you left forever…” I remembered it as she said that.

I found SonicBlade sitting near the tree on the big hill, waiting for me. As I sat next to him, he told me, “Hey, Yasha… breeze is nice, isn’t it?”

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

“Yeah, it is… But… I… I have something to tell you.”

“Sure thing! What is it?”

“You know how I was sent here to save the world?”

“Yeah… Why?”

“My… My role’s finished, SonicBlade. I have to leave. I just know it. I have to go back. But I want to stay, right here, in this world, with you.”

He smiled at me. “You know… now I just remembered to tell you this. Remember all the things said about the ancient Pokemon, and how Celebi said that the battle was mine to fight? And how I was able to read those ancient writings?”

“I remember. Why do you ask?”

“Well… how do I put this..? Yasha… I’m Mew.”

My eyes widened. My best friend… the one and only? It couldn’t be!

“I know you’re thinking it’s not possible, but it is. You see… we both had our memories erased. But when mine was… I had sent my spirit to the future so I could be reborn as SonicBlade. It was then that I called you. Before you arrived, you decided on everything. The barrier over the spring, the writings, all of it. It was all you and me. And because of that… this quest took place. But what really made Dark Matter truly destroyed… was because I accepted it. I messed up at first. I, no, we defeated it, but that was all we did, and thus, we caused it to rage upon the world until we met again. And I took the responsibility to accept it. In reality, the battle Celebi spoke about was one for me, to forgive myself of my mistake and accept Dark Matter. I know you don’t remember it at all, but I do.”

“But… why are you telling me this now?!”

“Xerneas… filled his end of the bargain. He gave me the time to tell you all this… and because I accepted Dark Matter, I set the timer off… for my destruction. So… Yasha…”

He took a few steps back, and I watched as a light slowly shined within him.

“It’s not you who has to leave. It’s me. Because it was my actions that have caused and relieved this conflict. Yasha… I want you to keep it up and go on, ok?”

“SonicBlade, wait!! Please!”

He was soon engulfed in the light, and was no more as he slowly rose. Before leaving, he told me, “Yasha… don’t cry for me. I’m always fine, aren’t I? So… don’t cry… I’ll… I’ll see you some other day…”

And he rose to the sky. As I watched, I ran to the edge of the hill and screamed, “SONICBLADE!!! SONICBLAAADE!!!”

But he couldn’t hear me. I fell to my knees, then onto my arms, my eyes filling with tears. I didn’t expect this. I screamed and sobbed as he left me, and everyone in the village heard my cries.

I sighed and nodded. “I went through so much to get him back, Alyssa. I won’t let him die again.” She nodded and bid us farewell, as well as the others by the time we were walking away from HQ.

And that was my very last day in Lively Town.
