Rocks or Love?

By Extremempenguin10


I was walking down the Pokemon League's steps for possibly the last time when I spotted Wallace.

"I still owe you for the help with the Sky Pillar. Thank you, for that"

"Hahaha! How unlike you to be so thoughtful."

"Heh... You know, this experience really brought it home for me again... That there is still so much about this world that I do not know. I wonder what would have happened to Hoenn... If May had not been here to aid us with this, and the incident with the super-ancient Pokemon... I alone was powerless to stop either."

"There is no person in this world who knows all. None who can do all. Steven... There is no cause for such worries or concern."

"Hmm. Heh. Don't worry. It's not that I am so shocked by my own disappointing performance. But rather..."

"Rather what?"

"I was just thinking about how much more there is I must learn about nature... about Pokemon... and about my fellow humans as well... If I'm going to keep living in this huge, wide world. I want to walk on this world with my own two feet. To see it with my own eyes. To feel it on my very skin... I need to put in practice all the advice I ever gave to May. That's what I'm thinking now."

"...What? Steven... You can't intend to..."

"Hah hah hah! But no need to fear... I won't just disappear at once. I'll still be around doing my duty on behalf of the Pokemon League. But, hmm... When the time does come for me to pursue my own hopes... Well I hope that you, Wallace, will be behind me to lend a hand."

"...Hmph. It seems I have little choice. I bow the whims of the pampered heir. I, Wallace, will do this thing you wish. Heh."

"Hah hah hah... Thank you, my friend..."

And he walked off, probably to his Pokemon gym.


I was at my house in Mossdeep, packing my things when I realized what I was doing. Am I really leaving everything I had to go off and hunt for rocks and become a better trainer. Yes, I was. I sounded even more stupid when I said it out loud to myself. But this needed to be done for May's own good. Even though it killed me to do this to her. But it would all be worth it in the end or in about 6 to 8 months.

I was done with the letter and ready to leave when I realized I hadn't put the PokeBall right next to the letter so I did so. I re-read the letter to make sure I wrote anything stupid. this is what it said:

Dear May,

Have you ever felt like you just need to go out and smell the roses? Well that's what I'm doing, what I mean is that I'm going to different regions throughout this wonderful world we live in. And hey i'll bring you back some pokemon too. Which brings me to my final request do you see that pokeball over there, I want you to train the pokemon inside. It's a Beldum my favorite pokemon, it would mean a lot to me if you did train it.

-Steven Stone


Could just running away like this ruin my entire life. Yes, yes it could but I know this will be worth it in the end. Though in the end she may not say yes in the end I will always love her, even if she doesn't feel the same. I always will.

Now as I leave this region, with the wind flying through my hair and me soaring on my Skarmory, I hope that May will do my last bidding.
