Standing in front of the door to his house the man sighed, running his hands threw his dusty brown and grey streaked hair his green eyes looked at the warn down golden door knob that was the entrance to his home. He wiped the remaining oil that littered his hands on his blue work overalls as he turned the knob, as he braced himself for the chaos that was about to ensue.

Entering the small two storied home he could hear footsteps stomping upstairs as the sound of the radio softly played in the background. "Rosa I'm home!" he called as the sounds of heels came soon after. Turning the corner a woman appeared, her pink house dress was covered in cooking stains as the dark eyes under her golden eyes looked darker than yesterday. "Are you ok?" he asked her.

"I'm fine," she said as they could hear a high pitch yell coming from one of the rooms upstairs, "Lillian is in one of those moods again," she wearily said as she pulled her short blonde hair back into a small bun to the side of her head.

"What happened this time?" he asked as Rosa walked him into the living room as he could see she had already prepared his dinner for him on the dining table that lay a short distance away from their brown matte couch.

"She's upset that she didn't register in time for the Nimbasa City Pokemon Contest," she shook her head as the head of a grey and white cat popped up from the couch. Jumping onto the arm rest, the cat's coil like tail wrapped around itself as it went back to sleep. "It's so bad that even Glameow can't be around her." She said as he shook his head.

"I told her she needed to register as soon as they announced it," he said as they could hear the sound of the front door opening. "Is that you Irwin?" he called out as a boy no older than twelve years old ran toward them. Readjusting the glasses over his face, in his arms he held a small yellow mouse like Pokemon. "Looks like you and Pichu were playing out on route 4 again," he remarked as there were grass stains all over his khaki shorts and blue striped shirt.

"Yea, well after I heard Lillian starting to freak out about her contest thing I knew I had to get out of here." He joked as he sat down at the dinner table, "hey sis time for dinner!" he called out as loud stomping feet made their way down the stairs. Rosa got up as she grabbed a food dish for her son's Pichu and quickly filled it up.

"I don't wanna eat," a girl cried out. Wearing a frilly green dress with matching green gloves, her green eyes looked rather puffy as the soft curls of her shoulder length golden hair swayed with each step she took.

"Come on Lillian, cheer up." Her father said as she reluctantly sat down at the table, "I hear the Castelia Contest will be open to registration in a couple of weeks." He said as he could see a smile on his teenage daughter's face, "there's the smile I love," he said as her mother sat down at the table.

"Besides you'll have plenty of time to create a brand new routine with Glameow," Rosa said as her daughter laughed.

"Well I guess you're right, and I know we're gonna win that contest!" she cheered as things had finally settled down in the house hold. "Wait…daddy, didn't you say you had some big news when you called earlier today?" she asked him as he was stunned.

"Oh yes, Rocky what was it that you needed to tell us?" Rosa asked as he was still trying to think about how he was going to explain the situation. "Rocky?"

"Well, my sister called me today at work." He honestly said as he could see a questionable looked on his daughter's face.

"Sakura? What did she call you about?" Rosa asked.

"Did she call to brag about Saki again?" Lillian asked as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"Now don't be like that Lillian, now Rocky what did Sakura call you about?" Rosa asked again.

"Well Saki is actually on her way to Unova right now, she'll be here in a couple days. Sakura sad that Saki wants to try and take on the Unova Pokemon League." He said as he could hear Lillian exhale a large breath, he didn't have to look at his daughter to know how badly her anger was boiling at this point.

"Cool! Saki is coming! Does that I can try and battle her?" Irwin asked as he and Pichu had a spark of enthusiasm in their eyes. "Or better yet I can ask her to teach me her awesome battle strategies!" he cheered as Pichu jumped up and down on the table.

"Well it sure will be nice to see Saki; it's been over a decade since we saw her. You remember how you and Saki use to play by the harbor, right Lillian?" Rosa asked her daughter as she turned her head in disgust at the sound of her cousin's name.

"Yea so what?" she retorted as it was very apparent that she wasn't happy about her cousins arrival.

"Come on Lillian, aren't you the least bit excited to see you cousin again?" Rosa asked as Lillian sighed.

"Well…it's not just Saki who's coming to Unova," Rocky added as they looked at him with a confused look, "Saki's boyfriend will also be accompanying her." He said as Lillian immediately left the dining table and retreated back to her room upstairs as they could all hear the sounds of her muffled crying and screaming from her closed bed room door.

"This is going to be interesting…" Irwin spoke up as the entire family just shook their heads.

"You can say that again," Rocky said.

Looking out from the deck of the ship Steven and Saki leaned on the railing as the sight of Castelia City was getting closer and closer into their views. The tall sky scrapers like towers and small apartment complexes and buildings each held their own rainbow sheen as they glistened in the light of the early morning sun. "Welcome to Castelia City," Saki said as Steven seemed amazed by the scene in front of him.

"Wow," he breathed as Steven couldn't take his eyes off the city. He could hear Saki giggle as he put his arm around, "so this is Castelia City, huh?"

Saki readjusted the straps to her blue tie-dye dress as the ends of it fluttered in the wind, "Yes, although it does look quite different to me, it's been a decade since I've last been here." Saki told him as he turned her head towards the light beeping sounds coming from the backpack on Steven's back. "I still cannot believe that you actually took that egg from that elderly couple." Saki said to him as she poked at the bag.

"They offered it to us," he said as he looked back at his bag. "Besides, it's always good to always have a little mystery in every adventure, adds a little spice to things." He joked as Saki lightly punched his shoulder.

"Sure, sure. Like being a new region of the world isn't mysterious enough," Saki said as the ship pulled alongside the long white brick harbor. "Just make sure Cranidos doesn't give it a hard time," she joked.

"Don't worry about that, the only one Cranidos is going to bug will be Zoroark." Steven replied as they both just laughed at the thought of their Pokemon bickering with each other. Coming to a complete stop they could see the workers attaching the steel ladder to the side of the boat as a few of the passengers were starting to walk down.

"You ready?" she asked him.

Steven nodded his head as they both made their way toward the ladder; walking down Steven could see Saki pulled out her white Premier Ball. "What are you doing?" he asked her as they both stood on the white harbor.

"I just thought Zoroark would like to see our hometown again," she said as Steven just smiled. Throwing her Pokeball up the air, Zoroark popped out as she looked questionably around the unfamiliar area. "Don't you remember this place?" she asked her illusion Pokemon as Zoroark began to sniff the air.

She jerked her head to the side as the dashed away, "what in the-?"

"Zoroark wait!" Saki called as the followed her rampant Pokemon across the harbor; countless bystanders moved out of the way as Saki sprinted towards her Pokemon with Steven behind her. "Where are you going?" she tried to ask as Zoroark ran down the sidewalk before turning onto a viewpoint that bordered the water.

"What's gotten into her?" he asked.

"I don't know, she's never done this before!" Saki replied as she could see the looks from people, but then again it wasn't every day you saw two trainers chase after a large fox Pokemon.

"Where do you think she's going?" Steven asked as Saki rolled her eyes as she could see Zoroark turn a corner before disappearing into a dark tunnel.

"If I knew do you think I'd be asking here where she's going?" Saki asked as she and Steven ran down the descending dark stairway into the dark dimly lit tunnel. They both stopped as Saki looked around, "wait a second…" she could see that this area looked rather familiar as they could see another stairway leading up to the surface.

"Saki do you know this place?" Steven asked as he was hit with the pure concentrated smell of the salty sea air from the viewpoint. He followed as they walked up the stair and into the bright light; they looked around in amazement at the area they both had just entered.

Thick dark green bushes bordered alongside the white painted walls as a field of tall grass surrounded the large tree that was growing in the middle of the area. "Ark!" Saki turned her head to the sound of Zoroark's voice as she jumped right into the grass.

Fighting her way through, Saki pushed aside a large section of grass as she saw a familiar sight in front of her. Zoroark had transformed herself into her pre-evolved form, Zorua as a small little brown furred Pokemon rolled around her in the dirt. Its long ears twitched as it looked towards Saki, "eve!" the Pokemon cried out as it ran into Saki's arms, before rubbing its head against her chest. "Eve eve!"

Saki's jaw dropped as she looked over at Zoroark as she transformed back into her original form, "wait…" Saki whispered as Steven popped out of the grass, as he looked questionably at the Pokemon in Saki's arms.

"What's with the Eevee?" he asked her as Saki walked on the flattened grass that lay around the tree as she closely examined it. Steven walked up to the tree as he could see Saki's eyes fixated on one spot, looking at the spot he could see the words "PokeGarden" badly etched in the bark of the tree. "PokeGarden?" Steven asked.

Nodding her head, "yea… I thought this place looked familiar… this is where my cousin Lillian and I use to play when we were kids." Saki said as she ran her fingers across the words they had carved in the tree. "Most of the Pokemon use to live in this garden…"

"Lillian? Isn't that the cousin you don't get along with?" Steven asked as Zoroark leaned against the tree with her arms crossed in front of her chest.

"Yea… she was so upset when this one Pokemon didn't want to play with her…" she whispered as she looked back down at Eevee, "wait… can it be?" Saki held the Eevee in front of her as she looked it directly in its big black eyes, "are you really that Eevee?" she asked.

"Eve!" Eevee cried out as she danced in Saki's hands.

"What do you mean by that Eevee?"

"There was always this one Eevee that didn't like to play with Lillian, it always wanted to play with me and Zorua before we left; those two were practically siblings. I just can't believe you've been here all this time!" Saki cheered as she hugged Eevee close to her, "I thought you would have been with another trainer by now!"

"So that's why you ran here?" Steven looked towards Zoroark, "you smelled your best friend and had to see for yourself."

"Aark…" Zoroark scratched her head as she walked over to Saki and Eevee as it poked Eevee in the forehead, "ark ark."

"Eve." They barked at each other as both Saki and Steven laughed.

"You know, I think Eevee's been waiting for you to come back." Steven said as he pulled out a new Pokeball from his coat pocket, "maybe the reason why it hasn't found a new trainer is because it was waiting for you."

"Is that so?" she asked as Eevee nodded its head, "well then, do you want to come with us?"

Eevee jumped out of Saki's arms as it jumped happily on the grassy ground as it cheered with joy at Saki's question. Taking the Pokeball from Steven, Saki opened it up as Eevee happily jumped in as the Pokeball snapped shut. "To think, not even twenty minutes and you already got a new Pokemon."

"Are you sure this is the right house?" Steven asked as he and Saki stood in front of the large two story home as the lights in both stories were on. The sky above was starting to turn dark as Eevee rested on top of Saki's head. Cranidos stood next to Steven as Saki seemed hesitant to knock on the front door.

"I'm sure this is the right place; mom said they lived on the West side of Castelia and this is the only house in the area, next to all these apartments." Saki said as they both had walked up and down this street for hours, but always returned back to this house. "Here goes nothing." She said as Saki knocked three times on the wooden door.

Loud footsteps could be heard as the door slowly started to open, "yes?" Rocky asked as he looked at the two trainers and their Pokemon.

"Uncle Rocky?" Saki asked as she could see a large smile come across the man's face as he pulled his niece in for a hug.

"Well if it isn't Saki! Both of you come on in!" he said gleefully to them as they walked into the house; the sound of upbeat music and footsteps could be heard overhead. "Rosa guess who's here!" he called out as he lead them both into the living room.

Walking out from the kitchen Saki could see her Aunt Rosa, along with an unfamiliar boy with glasses emerge. "Is that Saki?" she asked, "come here and give your aunt a hug!" she said as she wrapped her arms around her. "What brings you here?"

"Just thought by and say hi, it's been so long since I've seen you guys."

"Well, you look fabulous sweetie!" she told her with a smile as she pulled the young boy towards her, "you may not remember this guy, but this is your cousin Irwin." Rosa introduced.

"Hi there!" she said as she could see her uncle looking towards Steven, "oh!" she grabbed Steven's hand as he pulled him over towards her family. "Aunt Rosa, Uncle Rocky this is Steven Stone, my boyfriend." She introduced as Steven and Rocky shook hands.

"Nice to meet you both," he said as Rocky and Rosa motioned for them to sit on the couch.

"So you're the young man my sister was telling us about," Rocky said as he and Rosa sat across from Saki and Steven as Irwin sat in the recliner in the middle. Cranidos lay next to Steven's leg as it started to snooze away, as Eevee climbed down into Saki's lap and followed right after it. "She told us that you are also a Champion," he said as Steven put his arm around Saki.

"Yes, well I was. After Saki beat me I gave her the title as the Hoenn's Pokemon League Champion," he said as Steven started telling them about their battle and what exactly happened as Saki could see a young girl walk into the living room. Saki mentally questioned the frilly and rather glitter riddle red dress her cousin wore, but knew that as a Pokemon Coordinator their outfits had to be overtop… in some cases.

"Ah, Lillian come say hi to your cousin!" Rosa cheered as Saki could see an odd look come across her cousin's face. She watched as Lillian and her Glameow sat next to her parents as her arms were crossed in front of her chest. "Saki have you ever considered cutting your hair? I'm amazed that you've kept it that long." Rosa admitted as Saki laughed.

"Nah, I don't think I can pull off short hair." Saki told her aunt, "It's good to see you Lillian," Saki said with a smile as her cousin huffed

"Good to see you too." Saki knew that her cousin wasn't too excited about her being here, but in Saki's opinion she could at least act as if she were. "Where did you get the Eevee?"

"Oh, well… we kind of stopped by the old PokeGarden before we came here and this little guy just happened to be there." Saki said as she could see her cousin make a rather upset face at her. "To be honest… it's actually the same Eevee we use to play with, you know… the one that got along with Zorua."

Lillian's jaw dropped they could hear the sound of one her feet stomp against the ground, "oh so that little thing choose you over me. Did it?" she sounded rather hostile as Saki felt a bit uncomfortable with the rising tension.

"Now Lillian be nice, so Saki what's it like to be a Pokemon League Champion?" Rocky asked as Irwin's eyes lit up with delight.

"Yea can you tell us?" he asked excitedly as he almost seemed ready to jump out of his seat.

"Now Irwin calm down," Rocky told his son. "Sorry, but ever since he heard you beat the Pokemon League Champion, Irwin's been wanting to battle you and also get a picture with you to prove to his friends." Rocky explained.

Saki laughed, "Well Steven and I don't mind taking a photo with you Irwin, but maybe we can battle another time." Saki said.

"Yes, we're both exhausted after chasing around her Zoroark and trying to find a nice hotel to stay in for the night." Steven said as he kissed Saki's temple. "Though I think just chasing her is enough to tire any man out."

"Aww…" Rosa said as she could see the love between the couple in front of her, "isn't that sweet, reminds me of your sister and Kaiser." She commented as Rocky nodded his head. "Oh that reminds me; I actually got a few things for you two." Rosa said as she stood up from the couch.

"Aunt Rosa you didn't have to do that," Saki protested as she gently picked up her sleeping Eevee and place it on the couch before she stood up.

"Nonsense, it's been awhile since you've been back to Unova and they've made quite a few changes. Let me get them for you," Rosa said.

"I'll be right back," Saki said to Steven as she and her aunt left to go upstairs as Rocky stood up.

"Do you mind if we take a quick picture Steven?" he asked as Steven.

Steven shook his head, "it's no problem at all, it's actually quite flattering" he said as Rocky walked out of the room in search of their camera. As Lillian got up and scooted Saki's Eevee away from Steven and sat next to him. "It's nice to meet you Lillian," Steven greeted as she looked at him. Eevee looked up curiously as it woke up Cranidos as both Pokemon watched what was happening.

"Sure." She brushed off his greeting as she looked towards her brother, "Irwin get out!" she demanded as her brother shook his head.

"But that's Saki's-"

"Get out or I'll tell mom that you broke her favorite lamp last week," she guilt tricked her brother as he hesitantly walked into the kitchen. "I saw how you were looking at me," she said as she wrapped her arms around Steven's arm.

Pulling his arm out of her grasp, "what are you talking about?" he asked her as Lillian put her around Steven's neck. "Do you mind getting off of me? This is really uncomfortable." He told her as he tried to pull her arms off of him.

"I'll scream," she warned him. "Then everyone, even your own girlfriend will think you did something bad to me." She told him as Steven shot her an angry glare.

"Something bad will happen to you if you don't get your hands off of me," Steven told her. "But I'm not the one who's going to do it." He said as he could hear footsteps rushing down the stairs and back towards the.

Saki walked into the room as her jaw dropped, Lillian had her arms wrapped around Steven with her face just inches away from his as he was desperately trying to get out of her grasp. "Get your hands off my boyfriend!" she screamed as she grabbed Lillian's hair by the fistful.

Pulling her off of Steven Lillian broke free of Saki's grasp as she rubbed her tangled dirty blonde hair, "he's my boyfriend!" she screamed back as Cranidos and Eevee hid behind the couch as they could sense something was about to happen. Lillian roughly pushed Saki back as Zoroark's white Pokeball fell off her belt onto the ground.

"Saki!" Steven cried out as Zoroark appeared as she could see Saki lying on the floor, before immediately looking at Lillian. She growled as Lillian's Glameow stepped in as it jumped up at Zoroark, catching it between its claws Zoroark chucked the Pokemon back at its trainer before helping Saki get up.

"Thanks," she said as Zoroark nodded her head. Steven rushed over to Saki, "what did you do with her?" she asked him hostility as Cranidos and Eevee ran towards them.

"I didn't do anything; she tried to force herself on me!" Steven defended himself, "your dad was right was to warn me." He told her as Saki understood where he was coming from.

Lillian's green eyes looked angrily at Saki as she grabbed the ends of her puffy red dress, "you don't deserve all these things!" she yelled as Steven put his arm around Saki, "ever since we were little you've always been lucky! I wanted Zorua, but your father never gave him to me! I wanted Eevee but I didn't like me!" she started going off as Saki shook her head.

"Lillian please stop this," Saki's aunt Rosa begged as she could see her uncle Rocky cover Irwin's ears at what Lillian was screaming.

"No, it's not fair!"

"Lillian!"

"What?"

"Do you really believe that the beauty of your heart is reflected in your Pokemon?" Saki asked her.

"Well yes, my Glameow is beautiful and perfect. She reflects my true heart!" she defended

"Then if that the case think about this, your Glameow may be beautiful now, but wait until it evolves into a Purugly your Pokemon will truly match your heart." She told her as Lillian's eyes widened. "Your heart is nothing short of ugly. I'm sorry you guys, but we're going to have to leave." Saki said as she opened the front door to their home and stormed out as Steven followed behind her.

He could see Saki practically running as Steven chased after her, "Saki wait up!" Steven called as both he and Saki came to a complete halt in the darkness of the city night, "Saki?" Steven could hear her starting to cry as he pulled her into him.

Putting her head against his chest, Steven gently stroked her long dark hair as he could feel her body shaking. "Why does she always have to do something like that?" Saki asked as she cried into Steven's jacket. "Every time something good happens to me she tried to ruin it or tries to make me feel guilty, I don't understand!"

"I don't know honey," Steven told Saki as he held her tighter. He knew that what just happened wasn't normal, but still knowing that Saki's own cousin would pull something like that must have been heart breaking. "Maybe she just doesn't understand how to be happy for herself." Steven suggested.

"But why does she always blame me for her unhappiness?" Saki asked as Steven rested his head on top of her own. Steven took off his coat as he placed it around Saki as he could feel goosebumps started to creep all over her bady.

"Maybe we'll never know…" he whispered as he and a still very upset Saki walked down the street as they headed back to their hotel, as they both wanted to forget what happened just moments ago.

Hey guys! So I'm so happy to finally start the sequel! Anyway I also want to let you guys know I'm going to start writing another story on the sides for whenever I need a break from this one or I just need something else to write so I can avoid so much writers block this time around.

This is a different story that is actually going to be about the 1986 movie, Labyrinth that had David Bowe in it. I love that movie and I thought I should write a story for it as well, but of course with my own twists. That story is going to be titled as Broken Hearts, so keep an eye out for it in the next couple of days as I might alternate between stories.

Thank you guys so much, don't forget to favorite and review. I love you guys so much! Until next time my dreamers!
