This is my first time writing something like this so be a little gentle with me but don't hold back on any qualms you have with it. I don't claim to or own Pokemon.

"Welp"- Other character's dialog

'Welp'- My dialog.

I hope you enjoy this...weird thing.

Sometimes, I wonder what would have happened if some things played out differently. Would I have ended up in this mess? Would we be this split? Would you forgive me? If only... If only things had gone differently. All I can do now is...imagine a world where things went well.

It was the first day. My first day at this college. I wasn't the most spectacular student. Just a regular Quilava who had managed to snag myself a spot at a prestigious college meant for the higher-ups in society. Knowing that, I didn't intend to get along with anyone. Most of the people would probably be pricks, rich kids or both. Hardening my resolve, I stepped into the campus. It was a rather large campus with two separate buildings, both equal in size. The first was the administration building. This contained all the classrooms and teachers lounges. The other building was the student dorms. I was planning to stay there for the duration of my education here.

I had hoped to find the dorms quickly. Unfortunately for me, I had the uncanny ability to get lost. And with how big the campus, it was almost no time that I found I had no idea where I was. I had almost given up trying to find the dorms when I heard a low and gruff voice behind me.

"Hey, are you lost?" I turned to confirm who the mysterious voice was and found my face in a brown tuft of fur. Blushing a bit, I backed off a bit and found that I was staring at a Ursaring nearly twice my height. I struggled to speak up while being intimidated by this being that largely dwarfed me. He seemed to notice my discomfort and spoke up again.

"Sorry if I scared you there, little buddy. I forget I must look like a giant to you!" He cheerfully started guffawing and it calmed me down. I cleared my throat and replied.

'My name's Bullet and yeah...I'm lost. Could you lead me to the dorms, if it doesn't bother you?" I wasn't counting on him to actually help me but when he did, I was happy. He even helped carry my stuff. Though he took as more of a game and made me chase after him. As we entered the dorm building, I asked another question.

'That reminds me... What's your name?' He stared at me for a few seconds before his cheeks lit red for a few seconds. He apologized for forgetting to introduce himself and scratched the back of his neck. He finally shared that his name was Tony and that he was starting college today too. I was gonna chalk it up to coincidence until we arrived at my dorm room; Our dorm room, to be exact. Turns out, he was gonna be my roommate too. What were the odds.

As we laughed at the circumstances and were unpacking my stuff, I heard a familiar voice from next door.

"Did you remember your books?" "Mmmhmm." "Stationary?" "I don't think people even call it that anymore." "Then what about your-" "I got it! Just because you're the headmaster doesn't mean you get to boss me around. I'm still your father." "Adoptive father." "I raised you, right? There."

I peeked my head out of the door into the next room and found three interesting things. First, the door was open. Second, my uncle, Seje, who was a really cool Hydreigon a few years over my age, was in there. Third, he was standing in there with a Kyurem and the headmaster of the college itself, an Arceus by the name of Arland.

'Seje? Is that really you? I believe in coincidences, but this is too much. We live in dorm rooms right beside each other?'

It was almost too unbelievable. A smile broke out on my face as we got around to introducing ourselves. It was a happy time. I was happy. If only that was what had actually happened. I kid myself with these delusions of a happy time. But for once...I want to stay in these happy times.

So that was the end of that. If I get any feedback, tell me if you want me to make a chapter two to this. As for what my character means when he's talking about his time that wasn't like this...That's a secret~. That's for me and someone else to know. Well, I hope you liked this short as all hell story that I wrote for fun.
