"Hi," Pokémon Talking

'Hmmm...' Pokémon Thinking

Now To Answer Some Reviews:

Loveon- Really? Just how many attempts did you make? I know how you feel where you try to read a story with, let's say, over 100k words and don't read until the latest/last chapter, I've done that many times, even with some great stories. We just lost interest after so long. Thank you for the review. I hope you like the chapter.

The Poke-Expert- Hmmm... Thank you for the compliment. I agree with you. This is how it should have started. I'm glad I went this way and not the other way I was thinking of. Now, whatever idea you've got I will gladly take it! So give all you want! Thank you for the review. I hope you like the chapter.

bella- I'll update! I'll update! Here is another chapter ready, hot, right out of the oven. Ahahahaha. Thank you for the review. I hope you like the chapter.

Sn- Luna is going to travel the Unova Region just like the old story and that's about it for now. I'll think of when it come times for that. But it's a really good possibility for Luna to go to the Kalos Region. There will be influences from the other generations too. Now, Luna might have some Pokémon from the old version but the main one I am going to keep is Snivy and a few others. I'll be holding the poll again in a few chapters with a few selected and if there are enough votes that people want an old fan favorite from the older version then I'll most likely have it in their version. Thank you for the review. I hope you like the chapter.

Devin sands- Sorry I can't make a schedule. I try to update when I can that's all I can promise to you. Thank you for the review. I hope you like the chapter.

PsychicEevee0103- I could have Lucario in there but have a different version of him in there but with the same (really, really similar) relationship of the big brother figure for Luna. I admit, I do like him and he is one of my favorite Pokémon. Anyway, I'm glad I went this route. I thought it'd be better for Luna then be raised by Mew. It's better this way. Luna being there in the White Ruins and found by the Pokémon there makes sense with the route I am going with Luna this time around. Thank you for the review. I hope you like the chapter.

Chapter 2

As Time Goes On

1 Year Has Passed...

Place: Luna's Home, Central Part of the Forest, Near the White Ruins, Above Dragonspiral Tower, North of Icirrus City, West of Twist Mountain, Northwestern-Western Unova Region

"Young One, please, come out," Sawsbuck pleaded, his hoof back on the ground; sighing for the third time that hour. He stood in front of a small cabin-like house, two windows in the front, curtains drawn, in fairly good condition. The interior was done in different shades of blue with a mix of pastel colors. The cabin, wood in a colonial style covered the exterior, had a quaint atmosphere with a small yard that resembled a meadow. A bunch of flowers had been decorated around the house over the year from different Grass Type Pokémon that came to visit the girl.

The past year had been different for himself and all of the Pokémon that had made home in the White Ruins. After she had awoken, the Young One wouldn't speak a word until she came out of hiding from somewhere in the White Ruins a week later. It was a slow start but he got her to open up and introduced her to the other Pokémon slowly over the year. Her natural curiosity helped her develop friendships with the Pokémon.

"No!" Came the muffled reply.

Now if only he could get her out now.

"You need to go to your history lesson with Lady Ninetales," he explained, his front right hoof knocking on the light brown wooden door. "And you know how she is when you're late like this!" Sawsbuck still remembered the last time he almost got his tail burned off. It wasn't something he really wanted to happen and he was supposed to be Guardian of the Forest...

He heard some ruffling come from inside before the door opened a bit as a single pale, pupil-less, bright blue eye appeared. Luna's single seen eye blinked slowly at the Guardian of the Forest; she spoke in a whispered voice, "Do I have to?" He gave a soft nod, his eyes softening as the door opened fully. Out stepped the Young One, her white-light blue bangs falling gracefully over her eyes as her beautiful long hair swayed lightly by her feet as she stepped out of the house with bare feet.

'How she can still see that way is still a mystery to me...' He absently thought.

"Hello... sir..." She muttered her wing-like adornments that around her ears seemed to flutter a bit in happiness by themselves. She gave a bright smile up to the large Pokémon.

"Luna," the Pokémon began. The girl's head bowed in sadness and shame. "You understand what you did wrong, correct?" He asked, his voice stern. She gave a nod, still not looking at him. "A verbal answer if you please."

"I didn't go to my lesson on time like I was supposed to..." She explained with great reluctance, her body swaying back and forth as she twiddled her thumbs as her feet shuffled on the dirt ground

"And why didn't you go to your lesson?"

"Be-Because the others will just laugh at me!" she exclaimed. "They call me weird and make fun of me just because I am not a 'Pokémon'!" She continued to rant as Sawsbuck listened.

Sawsbuck's lips thinned. 'So that was the reason. It looks like that I will have some talking to do.'

The Pokémon let out another sigh, shifting his hoof to make the Young One stop. Sawsbuck lowered his snout, nudging his nose against Luna's cheek. The girl lifted her head to look up at him, one of her eyes peeking out from under her bangs. "Just go to Lady Ninetales and do not worry, okay?"

Luna stared at him for a long time before she gave a nod and a small smile. "Thank you," she whispered before running off. Sawsbuck watched the girl's back until she couldn't be seen anymore. His black eyes steeled over, turning and walking slowly away from the small cabin. There was something he needed to do.

Place: Open Meadow, Southern Part of the Forest, Near the White Ruins, Above Dragonspiral Tower, North of Icirrus City, West of Twist Mountain, Northwestern-Western Unova Region

"And that will be the end of the lesson," a feminine voice concluded. Nine long tails, each tipped with pale orange swayed slowly. On a large flat rock laid a female Pokémon covered with thick, luxurious golden-white fur with a fluffy crest atop her head, and a small mane around her neck. Gleaming red eyes twinkled with knowledge as her head turned to watch the young Pokémon leave, a small smile dancing on her lips. Once they all left, all of them saying good-bye to her, Ninetales stretched her long, slender legs to shake out the stiffness in her nerves.

The old Pokémon let out a hum, laying back down with her front paws crossed in front of her as she rested her head on them. Closing her eyes, she basked in the sun for an afternoon nap. Moments later, her blonde pointed ears twitched, moving around in the direction of the entrance to the forest. She didn't even budge or crack open an eye when she heard the crunching of leaves and the short panting of a Human body.

"You're late, Luna," she stated the obvious, "Class has already ended."

"I... I know," she panted, trying to catch her breath. She took a deep breath as she finally caught her breath. She had tried so hard, too.

"Why?" The girl was about to open her mouth before Ninetales stood up from the large flat rock. "No, there is no need for you to explain." The Pokémon walked around Luna, her tails trailing along behind her. She walked away before the other could say a thing.

Luna deflated, falling to the ground in defeat. She curled up under the shade a tree provided for her. "Why me?" she muttered. "Why is it me?"

She never noticed the pure red eyes watching her from the forest.

I stared out at the tall purple-haired boy with a green cap on his head and a dark green book bag beside him from my kneeling place inside the bushes. He held a weird red and white ball that had a black stripe in the middle of it with a white button thing in the middle of it. The boy's eyes had an angry gleam in them that he directed at the strange contraption in his hand.

"What is that?" I muttered under my breath, my wing-like adornments twitched as curiosity spread throughout me. My eyes glittered brightly; my toes clenched in the dirt under them. I really wanted to know how a Human was up here. I knew of them, seeing them come and go, sometimes by themselves or in pairs or groups. They were all different but with one thing all of them had in common, those red and white balls that actually stored Pokémon inside them. Lady Ninetales had briefly explained to me that they were Humans who called themselves Trainers, traveling to all the Regions the world held.

The purple-haired boy's hands clenched before he pressed the white button on the sphere. In a flash of light, there a Pokémon materialized in front of him! A Pokémon! That was so cool! He was so small and so blue. The Pokémon had black legs and torso, a blue tail, and a yellow collar. His right arm rubbed his left one, each one had rounded bumps on the backs of his forepaws, and red eyes diverted their gaze to the ground as he stood on his toes instead of his entire foot. Luna frowned, the Pokémon didn't look right... He looked hurt...

"You weak Pokémon! Why the hell did you make me lose again?!" The Human spat, spit coming out of his mouth and landing on the Pokémon before him. He kept on shouting at the small, blue Pokémon.

"I-I'm sorry..." He mumbled softly. He bowed his head, looking away. He flinched when the Trainer raised his voice.

As each hand clenched into a tight fist, a low growl escaped from my lips. "Who does this Human think he is? How dare he treat a Pokémon like that?" I hissed. Suddenly, as if everything was in slow motion, the Trainer raised his right hand and then there was a reddening... on the Pokémon's... cheek... My eyes widen. I blinked and it was as if my body moved on it's own, the Human knocked out, and the small Pokémon slowly losing conscious.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

It had been a few months after what happened that day but I still couldn't remember what had happened. Riolu wouldn't explain nor would Sawsbuck when he had found us. Since then, he wouldn't let me out near the edge of the forest. I could only go to places where I was watched either by him or by one of the older Pokémon like Lady Ninetales, Lord Xatu, or Timburr (he didn't like to be called Lord Timburr at all) or stay at home, where I would take care of the hurt Riolu I had found. None of the others wanted much to do with the Riolu so Sawsbuck said I could take care of him as long as he didn't do anything dangerous. I wondered what he meant by that...

Speaking of the Riolu. I glanced up at Sawsbuck as he walked beside me. "He's following us again," I pointed out, frowning. My frown deepened into confusion when I heard the Guardian of the Forest let out a small chuckle.

"He's not following us, Young One. He's following you," he explained, tilting his head as he gave me a slight glance, amusement dancing in his black eyes.

"But why?" I asked, cocking my head in confusion.

"He's most likely curious where you go when you are out and he's there by himself. He's all healed up now so it was only a matter of time when he started to move about. I'll admit I didn't think he'd stay around for this long. His species usually like to go find some of their own. I guess you left a big enough impression on him enough for him to stay." Sawsbuck eyes shifted back to the said stalking Pokémon.

"He doesn't mean any harm," I said, thinking back to the time I watched over him. I just knew he wasn't. Riolu was hurt. He was just lonely. It reflected in his eyes easily when he didn't think she wasn't looking.

"Hmmm..."

"He really doesn't!"

"If you say so then I will agree with your instinct, Luna." Sawsbuck let out a small smile to me. "Now let's go, Lord Xatu and Little Natu are waiting for you."

It was on a moonless night that Luna slept peacefully in her bed. Red eyes watched the young girl from a tree branch through the window that was just above her bed. The red eyes blinked, their head tilting as they observed their target. The eyes didn't hold any malicious intent or the promise of pain they were just curious about the girl; that was all. The girl was different from the others. She was different from the Humans and the Pokémon. She wasn't one of either but both at the same time; she felt incomplete somehow.

'Why is she so different?'

She was strange. The girl, Luna, had helped him when his ex-Trainer had gotten rid of him. She had asked what happened that day, confusing him, as he couldn't remember himself on what exactly happened that day. He just couldn't. Even after watching the girl almost every day and night for the past two weeks, Riolu didn't understand why she had helped him that day or healed him back to health but he was thankful that she had.

So many questions, so little answers. He needed them. He didn't like not knowing things. It made him feel weak. He didn't like feeling weak either.

"You should really stop doing that," a male voice said. His ear twitched, body frozen in place, eyes moving quickly to the source of the sound. He stared down silently at the Guardian of the Forest looking right up at him. "Why don't you come down and we'll talk?"

It looked like he was going to finally get some answers.

It was a bit chilly out that night, the wind blowing my hair around me as I stared up at the sky above me, my arms wrapped around my knees bringing them to my chest. I liked watching the sky like this, someplace where I could be myself. The White Ruins was a place where I could find peace in when I wanted to be alone (which it seemed I always was). Even though Sawsbuck doesn't like it when I come here alone, I couldn't explain why it was that way but it just was like that.

I was content here.

My gaze turned up at the vast expanse of the black twilight that darkened as the night went on. It was the very same blackness that had consumed everything in sight. All accept the luminous stars that materialized amongst the black heaven. Some were dull, just a small flicker that showed its self-existence every now and then among a sufficient amount of shimmering stars to illuminate the dark, moon filled the night. The glittering and scintilla stars become natural adornments, filling the empty, endless arch of the void-black. Different constellations took their place amongst thousands of other celestial constellations known and unknown, real and imagined.

It was like an intergalactic war.

The darkness controlled the sky yet the stars controlled the gleaming spots of where they originated. The war continued across the constellations. The sky was so mysterious and unknown to me. It would be a miracle for me to grow a sudden pair of wings and fly there but alas it was for naught.

I loved it. I wanted to grasp all of it in my hands. It was a thing of beauty.

"Why are you following me again?" I asked, my head turning slightly back to see the blue Pokémon walking behind me, his arms crossed his chest. There was a determined look in his eyes. Riolu just looked so cute like that... A small smile spread across my face, looking back ahead.

"Because I want to," he said as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

"But why do you want to?"

"There is no other reason than because I want to."

"So the only reason you're following me is because you want to?"

"Yes." He nodded.

"That's it?"

"That's it." The other gave a smile.

I felt the bottom of my eye twitched but I couldn't say no to that look. "Ugggghhhh! Do whatever you want..." I stated in defeat, my wing-like adornments sagging down a little. I let out a huff, practically hearing the smugness radiating off of the Pokémon behind me.

5 Years Have Passed...

Place: Unknown

It was dark in here. Where was Sawsbuck? Where was Riolu? Where was everyone?

The darkness was lasting, seeming to go on forever. How long? I didn't care. It wouldn't matter anyway. I was content here, happy (maybe), I was sure. Maybe... I wasn't sure at that other time.

I was floating inside the darkness, in this cold place. It wasn't warm there anymore. There was nothing. I didn't want to be there, it was so cold... so lonely. I didn't want to be alone there... here... That was what hurts. I didn't want to be alone! No...NO!

Time...

It was something that didn't matter here. I was glad (pleased? delighted! Happy?)... It really didn't matter either. Nothing much did. I was alone but not lonely without anyone there but I knew someone... something was beside me all the way. Maybe I was going crazy (wasn't I already insane? sane? no... Yes?) But then again, there was the pain that came and went in small bouts, like something was trying to block it. Not that I cared.

But what was I supposed to do? It was just so dark and cold. I wanted to scream but there was no one to hear me.

Friend? (Somebody emotionally close to... somebody who trusted and was fond of another... acquaintance... Ally... not an enemy? Yes! No! Maybe... A companion.) Such a foolish thing to think. A fool's dream... Never going to happen.

Ah, maybe I was going crazy in there? That would be fun... Maybe... It could be in a world where everything was sane and I was the only one crazy... That'd... That'd be... (Sad? happy? lonely?)

I could feel chains around me, keeping me in place (why? why!?), so I couldn't move anymore. I wanted to move, even an inch, but couldn't. I felt my breath cut short. My heartbeat quickened as the chains curled around my body, holding me in place. I closed my eyes to another short darkness, not feeling a thing. It was crazy...

Maddening!

It was incomplete.

Panic started to swallow me utterly. Flailing, I cried out, blind with sudden terror - not-again-not-again-not-again - arms swinging and beating wildly at these invisible walls leaping beyond my reach and could do nothing but stay helplessly in the air, suspended above whatever. I let out a short whine of pain. I felt the chains tighten around me before a sudden bright light washed over me and I opened my eyes to a white space, fog everywhere.

No!

"No!"

My eyes snapped opened, wide with fright as they stared straight up. I was breathing short, heavy breaths. Sweat beads ran down my face and my hands. I looked around the room, wide-eyed, making sure I was back home. I slowly let my heavy breathing even out, the back of my hand, using the sleeve of my nightgown, wiped the sweat that accumulated around my face. Laying back down on the bed, I curled up into a ball, knees were drawn up in front of my chest, while both my arms were curled up around them. My eyes were closed tight.

I didn't like that repeating dream. It was the same every time. No one knew about it. I didn't want them to worry. That was it. But it hurt, maybe I should have told them. Sawsbuck would help but I didn't want him to worry. He had enough on his plate as it was. Maybe... No! They didn't need to... know...

My body froze when I felt a part of my bed dip from a sudden weight added to it. Suddenly, I felt something lay next to me. A warm arm wrapped around my tense body as if to console me. My teeth bit my bottom, quivering lip. My eyes still closed, I turned around and held onto the body as if it was a lifeline. It seemed like it was then. I cried until I fell asleep, never letting the body go.

7 Years Have Passed...

Place: Opening, Western Part in the Forest, Near the White Ruins, Above Dragonspiral Tower, North of Icirrus City, West of Twist Mountain, Northwestern-Western Unova Region

I tilted my head, staring at Sawsbuck before me. There was Lady Ninetales on his right and Lord Xatu on his left. Lord Xatu was a green Pokémon with accents of black, yellow, and red and with long, red-and-black tipped white wings that covered most of his front. His almond eyes blinked slowly down at me, a soft look in them. Timburr sat on Lord Xatu's left, his eyes closed as he debated over something. On Lady Ninetales's right was Lord Golurk, silent as ever. They were the Lords and Ladies of the forest and my teachers over the past seven years.

They had called me here, Lucario following no matter what I said, because they had wanted to discuss something with me. He stood beside me, his arms clasped together behind him, standing straight.

"Luna, I and the others have decided over a topic we've been recently talking over," Sawsbuck explained, his head tilted up proud and tall. "You are going to be a Trainer."

"Eh?"

"What?!"

Author's Note: Instead of 5 years, I did 7 thought it'd be better with some ideas I've been thinking about. I did Luna in a different light than I did before and Lucario's in this but they have a somewhat different bond, yes a family bond, but different than the one from before. So what do you think of this now? Better than before? Tell me!

If you've got an idea for Luna's outfit then say it. I am currently taking ideas as I've got none at the moment.

Next Chapter: Luna goes to get a new outfit in Icirrus City for the beginning of her adventure, gets her starter and first Pokémon meets different Humans for the first time and starts on her journey. However, a storm is brewing in the midst.
