Bringing you home... VS. 1.

After a long sleepless night, Rosa opened her eyes to be met with the sunshine shining down her face through the gap between the curtains. She groaned and turned her covers over her head. The brunette with the long strands of loose hair around her face did not want to get up today.

Unfortunately for her, tomorrow the professor’s assistant is arriving with her first Pokémon to keep her summer from lasting any longer. She thought of this as she twisted herself in bed to a comfortable position in bed.

She shoved her face in her pillow constricted by her hands. As soon as she got comfortable with herself, the girl closed her eyes and was half asleep for twenty minutes before she opened her eyes and yawned.

She mumbled to herself her plans for today as she flung off her bed covers and slid off of her bed on to her feet. She walked into her open closet and pulled open her drawers full of her folded clothes.

On her bedroom wall was her certificate of junior medical practices and senior medical training. Following in her mother’s footsteps as a Pokémon Center nurse, she was dedicated to learning about the procedures of what her mother used to do before she retired. Healing and treating injured Pokémon is only half of what Pokémon Center nurses do. They also help people in their ailments whatever they may be no matter how minor or severe it may be.

In Rosa’s history, she’s only had Pokémon patients since she was six years old. Playing doctor to eventually being a junior assistant to her mother, she grew in her medical experience over the years of observation and on the job training. At the age of sixteen she is just about to reach her goal of achieving the rank of a standard nurse.

The girl took a quick shower and cleaned the drowsy lazy thoughts off her mindset for the day. She dried herself off and slipped into her under garments followed by her usual attire that consisted of her black leggings, frilly yellow shorts, and white shirt with a Poke Ball pattern with her undergarment top doubling as a decorative big pink bow connected through her strap behind her neck.

She walked into her room and opened her cabinet to pick up her shoulder bag that contained her notebook journal that she uses to record her daily progress. As for the medkits with the small red crosses decorated on their white surfaces that hung on the inner walls of her cabinet, she picked up the Pokémon medkit and the Human medkit in case of an emergency. She never had to use the Human medical kit in her life but she was taught by her mother to always keep it handy due to her own experiences in life.

“Welp… today’s the last day… before the journey… better make it count.”, she said to herself as she fixed her long loose hair into two big twin buns on the sides of her head.

The girl picked up her visor cap and placed it on her head before walking out of her room down the stairs.

“Good morning Rosa!”, greeted her mother from the kitchen.

“Good morning…”, she replied as she stepped off the stairs and walked to the table with her breakfast already prepared.

“So what are you going to do today?”, Mom asked as she was taking clean dishes out of the dishwasher.

Rosa sat down in front of the bowl of stewed vegetables and noodles before she answered her in a neutral tone.

“Meh… probably go to the Pokémon Center again and see if they’ve got anything for me… then I’ll probably see about doing something different being today’s the last day before you know who comes.”

“Right! Aren’t you excited?”, Mom asked her daughter with a smile of enthusiasim.

Rosa shrugged as she slurped a mouth full of noodles into her mouth and chewed. She looked at her mother cheerfully looking back at her.

“It will be a great experience. You’ll have your own Pokémon and you’ll get to go places all over Unova. And who knows… maybe you’ll meet someone special on your way.”, Mom said to her with a smile.

The girl with her hair in buns shook her head at the thought of actually meeting what she was referring to.
She couldn’t imagine falling in love with someone even if she tried. She’s sort of friends with a boy named Hugh in the neighborhood of Aspertia City she lived in but she tends to accompany him whenever he needs her to help him with something he needed done. Rarely would Hugh try to advance the level of their relationship before he would turn to get hyped over battling with his beginner’s Pokémon Tepig.

Rosa swallowed the remnants of her breakfast bowl and proceeded to leave the table.

Mom watched her walk to the door before she warned her.

“It’s a bit chilly outside today. Just a heads up if you want to take a sweater before you go.”

Rosa didn’t heed her warning before she opened the door and was immediately met with chills down her spine at the cold air coming through the door. The girl immediately closed the door and shivered as she walked to the stairs up to her room to fetch a sweater with Mom watching.

“It’s unusually cold today isn’t it?”

Rosa came back and looked at her with a sarcastic wide eyed smile as if to say.

“You don’t say?”



Twenty minutes later, Rosa was walking through Aspertia City’s streets with a red coat on. She walked around the buildings that stood in her way from the Pokémon Center approached the glass doors of the red building.

She walked inside and was immediately greeted by the nurse standing behind the counter in the center of the large lobby with a Healing Machine placed next to her.

“Good day Rosa. I have no new assignments for you today other than the usual forest patrol...”, the nurse said to her as she walked up to her.

“Really? No unhealthy Pokémon today? Not even a Lillipup in need of cold medicine or something?”, The girl asked the nurse with a bit of disappointment in her tone.

“Nope… unless you go out and patrol the forest for injured Pokémon again.”, the nurse replied.

Rosa sighed as she adjusted her shoulder bag over her red coat. The nurse-in-training looked at her superior and said.

“Today’s the last day before I have to leave town with my first Pokémon to fill a Pokémon encyclopedia a Pokémon Professor apparently invited me to complete… and I have to travel everywhere in Unova to do that.”

“Oooh that sounds fun!”, the nurse replied with amazement.

“But I don’t wannaaa...”, Rosa pouted like a little child with her head face down on the counter .

The nurse chuckled a little and asked her.

“Why? It would be so much fun to go on an adventure around the region. See new places and new faces. With your own Pokémon too! It should be fun for you!”


Rosa muttered with her face in her arms on the counter which muffled her speech. The nurse couldn’t quite hear what she said.

“What?”

“I said I’m scared….”, the girl replied raising her head up with a worried look.

The nurse felt a little sympathy for the trainee as she thought of something to make her feel better.

“Well…. When your mom was your age she met your father sometime during her own journey. One thing lead to another they got married after five years of being together…”

“Heh yeah… and look where he is now…”,Rosa replied in a negative tone referencing to the fate of her father.

“Oh come now Rosa. You shouldn’t think like that. Just enjoy every moment you have and don’t ever think so much of the future. It’s true not everything lasts forever but that’s why we enjoy it as much as we can today. The present…”, the nurse in her red uniform said to her.

“But what if my Pokémon get hurt? What if I get hurt? Who’s going to save me when I’m busy saving my Pokémon from the entire region of Unova constantly beating us down? I’m barely a fully trained nurse but here I am almost on my way out… do you suppose I could do my own stitching in the middle of nowhere? If my Pokemon faint on me I’ll be exposed w-what am I going to do if the worst happens?”

“Oh you’re over reacting... Unova is full of good people and Pokémon…. Well full of good Pokémon anyway…. Look, just don’t dwell on your irrational fears. Just grin and bear it and you’ll make it through with your Pokémon behind you.”, the nurse tried to reassure her.

Rosa was silent as she stood up straight and adjusted her shoulder bag over her red coat. The visor wearing girl nodded at her and said.

“I’ll just go the forest now… thanks for the conversation anyway…”, Rosa thanked her before turning around and walking to the glass doors.

The nurse stood behind the counter and watched her walk out the Pokémon Center’s front door. She sighed and smiled slightly.

“She’ll enjoy it… she’s got nothing to be afraid of but fear itself…”


As soon as the visor capped girl walked out she was immediately met with Hugh walking in her direction.

“Hi Rosa! Going to the forest again? Mind if I tag along?”, Hugh offered his company.

The spiky haired boy in his red coat looked at Rosa nod yes to his offer with a neutral look as she walked away from him. Hugh caught up to her and walked by her side.

“Sooo what Pokémon are you going to get when she arrives?”, he asked her as they walked up a few steps in the street across from the Pokémon Center.

“Whatever I choose… you? Oh wait nevermind… you have yours already.”, she responded as she stepped up off of the stairs.

“Right! Tepig and I will totally dominate the entire region together! I can’t wait till tomorrow... and you will help me right?”

“Sure.”, Rosa replied quickly as they walked through a gateway into Aspertia City’s forest park.

“Good. Because I’m relying on you to be my right hand man-er I mean woman. You know what I mean. I’m going to rely on you to back me up on the way alright?”, Hugh continued to speak to her as they walked passed the gateway into the forest park.

A gust of cold wind blew into their faces. Rosa shivered in her red coat with her mouth under the end of the zipper.

“It’s so cold today… colder than usual… I think.”, Hugh commented.

“Yeap… definitely different.”, Rosa said with little care for it.


They approached a forest path into the brush and off the main pathway set by the park. The pathway made by wild Pokémon was lined by arched branches overhead and a small path of cleared dirt. Rosa bent forward to look under the low hanging branches over the entrance of the forest path.

“We’re going in there?”, Hugh asked her.

“Yep. Like I always do.”, the girl replied before stepping off the walkway and into the forest path.”

“Um… that reminds me I have to go pick something up for my little sister.”, the spiky haired boy said to her.

“Really? What thing?”, the frilly yellow shorts girl asked him.

Hugh stood there trying to remember what he was going to get his sister. Rosa didn’t much care if he was trying to get out of going with her into the forest brush or not.

“Well if you’re busy you can go. I’ll be back later.”, Rosa said before walking into the brush without him

Hugh stood there and felt a little guilty for trying to make an excuse to leave her alone. He paced the walkway wondering what he should be doing now that he’s alone.

“Well… I suppose I could do some training around here with Tepig. While I’m here…”, Hugh thought to himself before proceeding down the walkway through the forest.


Rosa stepped over branches and crunched the autumn leaves. She took notice of how fast autumn came with summer almost over for her. The forest smelled of cold sap and wood as she traversed forward on to the Pokémon-made pathway. All the while keeping a look out for stranded injured Pokémon that might be lying around on the ground.

“Nothing so far… probably won’t see any Pokémon patients today.”, she concluded as she stretched her leg over a log and stepped over it.

She walked forward and observed her surroundings as regularly as clockwork. For ten minutes all she could see were the empty spaces in the forest with little sign of Wild Pokémon habitation.

“…. Sigh… welp it’s nice to see Pokémon are playing nice around here recently…”, The girl thought to herself as she sat on a tree stump of a fallen tree to rest.

She leaned back on her wooden mossy seat and looked up at the sky through the branches of the forest. The sky was turning into a beautiful taint of red and orange.

“Sunset already? I must’ve slept longer than I thought…”


Rosa yawned and scratched her left eye as she started to slowly doze off on the tree stump. The twin tailed girl almost closed her eyes until she heard noises of leaves crunching in the distance.

“Hm?”

The girl turned around to see what looked like a silhouette of a person running in the distance across her field of vision. Following it were more silhouettes of people chasing the one person. Rosa could hear yells coming from their direction.


“… What’s happening over there? Who are those people?”

Rosa got up off her seat and walked in the direction where the silhouettes of people were running towards. Then she started running forward when she heard somebody in the distance yell.

“DON’T LET HIM ESCAPE!!”


The girl ran forward over downed trees and small dried streams. Her view of the mysterious characters gradually became clearer before she arrived at a grassy clearing in the middle of the forest.

She hid behind a tree and watched what appeared to be a brown haired boy wearing a red visor cap with a shredded blue jacket. Under his clothing was a slightly torn up wetsuit that covered his body down to his calves and under his gray pants.

The boy stopped running and turned around to face his pursuers. He sent out a Dewott and shouted an order.

“Dewott! Razor Shell!”

The water Pokémon picked up its scalchops and charged out of Rosa’s sight. She could see that the physical condition of Dewott was not so good. The battle scars and bruises all over its face has clearly shown that it’s injured and needs medical attention.

Rosa eyed the trainer as it stepped backwards while facing the direction Dewott went. Screams of a Pokémon was heard before the boy raised Dewott’s Poke Ball and recalled the Pokémon. Immediately after returning the water type, green leafy projectiles of a homing Magical Leaf attack started shooting in his direction.

Rosa observed the boy endure the pain as he turned to run once again only to be halted by a lobbed Sludge Bomb attack. The explosion knocked the boy off his feet and on to the grass. She could hear his small cries of pain as he stayed on the ground in a fetal position. Rosa was speechless and hesitant on what she should do as the attackers revealed themselves in the light of the sunset.

A group of strange dark dressed people in what appeared to be a group uniform approached. They stood in a formation around the boy lying on the grass. A Crobat flew over their heads and a Roserade revealed itself next to one of the dark dressed persons. More people in their dark matching uniforms arrived and stood next to each other in a formation. From the corner of Rosa’s sight, a green haired man in formidable dark patterned clothing and a red scanner on his right eye walked across the grassy field with a silver complex cane that had a familiar emblem of a villainous team that plagued the Unova region two years ago.

“Team… Plasma?”, Rosa whispered to herself out loud as she observed the menacing man approach the boy on the ground.

She paid close attention to what was taking place from her safe distance.

The man leaned forward and grabbed the boy by the neck. He raised him up in the air as the boy coughed and gagged with his hands clutching on to the villain’s wrist. The green haired man spoke.

“So you thought you could be a hero?”, the man asked the boy with his grip tightening around his neck.

“You thought you could just disguise yourself as one of my followers and stop our plans for domination?”

The boy looked at the man in the eye with his teeth clenched. He couldn’t respond to him as he continued to taunt him.

“Where did you come from? You remind me of that one boy and his accomplice that ruined my plans at the very last minute two years ago… are you two perhaps related?”

No response was given other than the choking noises coming from the boy.

“No matter… I’ve learned from my mistakes… the simplest solution to a problem before it becomes a problem is the easiest one… but killing you now won’t be as enjoyable as I want it to be. I really want you to suffer your last moments here before you’re gone… Toxic.”

Upon hearing the last words from the villain’s mouth, the Crobat and the Roserade looked at each other in hesitation about sentencing the poor boy to a slow painful death. Poisoned Pokémon faint but severely poisoned humans don’t… they die.

The man gave a look of hatred at the two Pokémon before they did as he commanded.

Still conscious in the grip of the villain, he felt his body infused with toxins attacking his vital organs. The boy’s vision started to slowly turn black with the last thing he could see before being slammed on to the ground was the sadistic smile of the leader of Team Plasma.

Rosa felt uneasy as she watched the boy slam against the ground. She could see the group of grunts and their leader look down at him. The man laughed a little before suddenly turning and looking in her direction.

“AH!”, Rosa sounded as she hid behind the tree and faced away from the clearing.

Fearing that she’s been spotted by the leader of Team Plasma, she quietly whispered to herself some self-reassuring words before she peeked around the tree again and saw that the team had started following their leader out of the clearing back into the forest.

She stood there and waited for the grunts to disappear. She hesitated whether or not she should go out and see if the boy was still alive or go back for help while avoiding the possibility of running into Team Plasma on the way back.

She ran forward into the clearing and knelt next to the broken boy face down on the ground. His visor cap fell off and his jacket was torn beyond repair. There were cuts, scars, and gashes all over his body through the tears in his wetsuit.

“H-hello? A-are you okay?! Hello?”

No response. The girl flipped the unconscious boy on his back and placed her ear against his exposed chest through his torn wetsuit. She listened to the fast beats of his heart getting weaker by the second.

“He’s still alive! I can save him! But…. The medkit!”

Rosa took her shoulder bag and spilled its contents on the ground. Her journal, a set of pencils, a Pokemon Medkit, and a Human Medkit fell on top of the grass.

The sky grew darker as the sunset gradually disappeared just as the boy’s life was about to.

“Don’t you die on me!”, she said with adrenaline fueled determination as she opened the medkit.

“He’s been badly poisoned… so he needs at least two doses the Refined Pecha Extract.”

Out of the contents in the medkit, she grabbed one of two syringes filled with a pink fluid and labeled “Refined Pecha” and looked for two suitable places where to inject him with the cure. She grabbed hold of his shoulder and pierced his wetsuit with the syringe into his clotted blood stream.

“That’s one…”

The nurse-in-training pulled out another syringe of the same type and arranged herself next to his other shoulder. She pulled back the ripped sleeves of his jacket and proceeded to inject him with the lifesaving liquid. She pulled the small syringe out of his shoulder and put it back in the medkit’s syringe holders for the various kinds of afflictions humans get from Pokémon.

“There… oh…”

The girl noticed the cuts on him starting to bleed a little. She pulled out a hand full of adhesive bandages and antibiotic spray before she began cleaning and patching the boy’s bleeding wounds. Her fingers pressed against the bandages on to his exposed flesh and sealed his wounds from bleeding out.

“I’m glad I decided to take that medkit with me today…”, she exclaimed in self-gratitude as sometimes she leaves her house with just the Pokémon medkit.

Before she could feel better about herself, she decided it would be best to check the boy’s pulse to ensure he is still alive. She took his hand and placed her thumb at the point in his wrist where the feeling of his throbbing veins would be felt.  He most definitely is still alive.

Rosa couldn’t help but smile at the thought that she just might have someone’s life. Of course she started to worry about the possibility that he might just be in a coma and immediately her feeling of happiness turned to fear.

“Oh boy… please don’t be the case…”

She put her journal, her pencils, and her Pokémon medkit back in her shoulder bag. The darkness of the night was soon going to cover the sky. She noticed this and thought about what she should do now.

“… Carry him?... can’t drag him…”

Rosa looked at his legs and saw that she missed a spot on his bruised bleeding right shin. She took out the antibiotic spray and cleansed the wound before wrapping it in a comfortable adhesive bandage.

“There we go…”, Rosa exclaimed before she turned to look at the boy’s face who was looking right back at her.

“GAAH!!... you scared the heck out of me!”, she exclaimed after having jumped on her back at the sight of his eyes.

The boy’s face looked like he was scared of her. He was obviously still in much pain as he would shut his eyes tightly and endure a wave of agony coming from his broken chest.

“H-hey uhm… do you feel better? How do you feel?”, she asked the boy.

“I-it… hurts….”, the boy replied with a raspy voice with his hand clutching his chest through his wetsuit.

“What exactly? Where?”, she replied to know what is hurting him.

The boy couldn’t respond as endured the immense sharp pain in his chest with a tear rolling down his eyes.

“I… It broke…”, he tried his best to answer before he started to moan a little in pain.

Rosa looked at where his hand was on his chest. Upon further examination she could assume that when the green haired man had slammed the boy on the ground, one or more of his ribs might have shattered.

When the girl looked at the boy she couldn’t help but feel his pain in her own chest. She looked in the human medkit for something that could possibly help. In a small cabinet labeled, “Sitrus Anesthetics”, were Sitrus Berry pills meant to provide numbness of pain to a human. Due to the extremely strong nature of the medicine, only one pill is recommended for any situation. How affective it is may vary based on the injury.

“Alright I have something that could help take away the pain... but as soon as you take it I need you to help me help you get up and move back to Aspertia City alright? I’ll get you to a Pokémon Center and they’ll fix you up. Sound good?”, she asked him as she lifted the pill over his mouth.

The boy looked at the pill, then at her with his brown eyes that showed how much in pain he was.

“I don’t have any water… so you’ll have to take it without it alright?”

He nodded and opened his mouth a little. She dropped the orange Sitrus Berry pill in the gap between his lips. He swallowed it and waited for its effects to kick in. Rosa sat next to him and waited with him as she organized the medkit and closed the container to put back in her shoulder bag.

After five minutes, the sun had disappeared and left a small amount of light in the sky illuminated by the rising moon. Rosa watched over the boy while she held his hand for comfort.

“…Do you feel better now?... Do you think you can get up?”

The boy slowly lifted his head and flexed his abdominal muscles as he had his hand firmly pressed on the pain in his chest. Rosa placed her hand behind his back and his hand around her shoulder. The boy sounded a small cry of pain at one of his sudden movements.

“Easy now… Just hold on to me...”

The boy closed his eyes tightly and kept his torn wetsuit clutched in his left hand over his broken ribs as he rose up on his feet. His visor was left on the grass. Rosa wanted to pick it up for him but she knew that she would have to stop supporting him as he barely could keep himself up. Unfortunately she also noticed his bag was misplaced in the grassy field.

“My… Dewott... he’s in my bag…”, the boy said to the girl as they slowly made their way to enter the forest.

Rosa had an idea to get it back quickly. She explained to him.

“I’ll get it for you just hold tight to this tree okay? I’ll be back.”

The double bun girl lead the boy to a tree and wrapped his right arm around it to support him. He had his right temple against the tree as he continued to endure the unending pain inside him.

Rosa quickly ran for his visor cap which was in her sight first. Then she ran about the grass to find his blue bag having flown about three yards away from where the boy was laying. She picked it up and placed the red visor cap inside it. Being another shoulder bag, she placed it over her shoulder with her own pink shoulder bag. She quickly sprinted back to the injured boy and resumed supporting him with his right arm around her and his head on her shoulder. She kept her left hand around his waist to add the extra support in his step.

“Thank you…”, the boy whispered as she lead her the forest to the direction of the Aspertia City park lights.

As they walked through the dark brush, Rosa thought about asking what this boy’s name is but was afraid to induce more stress on him with a conversation. She decided to take a risk anyway.

“So… what’s your name? If you don’t mind me asking…”, she asked her as she cautiously stepped forward to lead him.

“Nate…”, he whispered as he followed Rosa’s steps.

“Nate? That’s a cool name… where are you from?”, she asked again.

“Nowhere…”, Nate replied before he suddenly emitted a small cry of pain.

Rosa stopped and tried to hold him together as he started to bend over with both of his arms crossed over his chest in an attempt to contain the agonizing pain that returned to him.

“Stay strong! We’re almost there. The park lights are just ahead and from there it’s just a little more okay? Nate?”, she addressed him directly as she tried to assure him how close they were.

Rosa kept her cool as she continued to support him with her arm around his waist and his arm slowly around her right shoulder.

“Just a little further… we’re almost home.”


After what felt like an eternity for Nate, the two were finally at the Pokémon Center’s front door. The building illuminated the darkness of the night that was bestowed on the little city.

“We’re here… just sit tight…”, she told him as they approached the automatic sliding glass doors.

As soon as they opened and they walked forward, she eyed the nurse standing the counter. The nurse had a shocked facial expression as she quickly phoned for doctors to come help with the boy Rosa had brought in. Then the nurse quickly ran out of her counter and approached the two after they walked through the second automatic door into the Pokémon Center’s lobby.

“Rosa!! What happened?!”, the nurse questioned with great concern as she ran up to the injured boy.

“He was attacked and badly poisoned by… I couldn’t believe it myself… Team Plasma.”

“Plasma?!”, the nurse exclaimed in shock.

“Plasma?!!”, Hugh’s voice shouted with an angry yet surprised tone from the lobby’s lounge section.

At the same time a strange nervous looking man with orange hair dressed in gray threads walked over to the boy to see his condition before running off out of the Pokémon Center. Rosa saw the suspicious looking man leave and immediately recognized him to be a Plasma grunt assumed to be running back to tell the others that Nate is still alive. It was too late for her to say anything about it now that he’s gone.

Hugh walked over to Rosa’s side as a doctor arrived with a wheelchair. Hugh observed Rosa and the nurse slowly place the broken boy in his seat.

“We’ll take him from here…”, the doctor said before pushing Nate’s wheelchair across the lobby.

“Can I keep him company?”, Rosa asked the nurse.

She shook her head and said.

“No. The doctors will find out what’s wrong with him and will heal him the best they can.”

“He’s got a broken rib cage… I think… some remnants of the poison may still be in him.”, Rosa replied what she thought might still be ailing him.

“Did you try to help him? With your medical stuff that is.”, Hugh asked her out of curiosity as he stood watching the doctor disappear into a door into a hallway.

“Yes… with that medkit I never used. This is why I’m glad I’ve been training to be a nurse…”, she replied with her hand in her shoulder bag overlapping Nate’s shoulderbag.

“Oh! And here’s his Pokemon. It’s a Dewott… he needs healing as well.”, she said after she reached into his bag and pulled out the one Poke Ball with the Pokémon in it.

She handed the ball to the nurse as before she thanked her and walked to her counter to place into the healing machine.

“So I guess… you brought in a human patient this time? How do you feel about that?”, Hugh asked her as she stood there deciding what to do now.

“I don’t even know… he said he doesn’t come from anywhere… his name is Nate… I forgot to tell him my name though…”

Rosa walked forward across the lobby and left Nate’s bag on the counter. She explained to the nurse that this was his stuff and that he should get it back as soon as he can and be reunited with his Pokémon as soon as possible.

“Don’t worry. I’ll get all of it back to him as soon as he’s ready…”, the nurse replied.

“I’ll be back first thing tomorrow morning before Bianca arrives… goodnight.”, Rosa said to her before she turned to walk to the door.

“Oh… goodnight Rosa. See ya tomorrow then… and don’t worry. He’s in safe hands.”, the nurse assured her before she approached the automatic glass sliding doors.

“Hugh.”, Rosa called out to him before leaving.

“Yes Rosa?”

“If you see anyone suspicious come to this building tomorrow… don’t let them get past the door. It’s probably a going to be a Team Plasma grunt or two coming to hurt Nate and finish what their leader started.”, she warned him with a serious tone.

“Alright. I will stand guard tomorrow morning up to the point Bianca comes with our Pokedexes… I doubt anyone would honestly come though…”, the spiky haired boy replied.

“Just… keep him safe…”, she said before walking through the automatic doors into the dimly lit city streets.




That night, Rosa couldn’t sleep again. The girl twisted and turned in her bed but she just couldn’t stop worrying about Nate in the Pokémon Center’s hospital. The darkness of her room did not help her go to sleep as she kept thinking about him and how odd it was for him to associate and narrowly live from being in contact with Team Plasma. She could still feel his head on her left shoulder from earlier.

“If he’s from nowhere… could that mean he doesn’t have a home?... or even a family?... poor guy…”


She continued to develop different theories for the mysterious boy before she finally closed her eyes and fell asleep.
