A/N So sorry for the long delay! I have finally got an idea going. I had a hard time coming up with a plot, but now that I have, enjoy! All trademarks belong to their respective owners blah blah blah.
It been a year since Touko had defeated the Elite Four. Life was pretty peaceful despite being a magical girl. Every time she had to fight the demons born from grief, it was only her and her six Pokémon who could help her out. It felt as if she was the only magical girl in the whole of Unova. It was difficult as tactics had to constantly change according to the types of demons Touko was facing at that point in time. She always felt like a one-man army but that still did not stop her from wishing or even hoping that she had more teammates she could rely on. Touko sighed as she leaned back against the tree on the hill overlooking Castelia City. She closed her eyes as she absentmindedly stroked Samurott's head. (She had given up nicknaming her Pokémon, especially Oshawatt since Kyubbey only gave her vague answers)
There it was again. That vision of the dark-haired girl who seemed to pop up in her mind so often. Touko could not explain it, but she felt a connection with her even though she did not recognize her. (Although she did feel as if she knew her from a different time) Touko reached out into the darkness and almost touched her but she started to run. Touko shouted out as she started to chase after her.
"Wait up! Who are you?"
The girl did not reply as she soon disappeared from her view, whispering only a single word.
"Homura…"
Touko paused, where had she heard of that name before? Soon, she felt herself falling into the darkness once more. She opened her eyes and stretched. She grumbled. Too many unanswered questions that Kyubbey would not answer her directly—she had asked him several times about the girl but to no avail.
It was bad enough that her magical girl outfit was ridiculous, with a poofy pink skirt, which she detested. She would rather wear her normal outfit but sadly, this was the outfit that she was stuck with. She felt awkward and it was rather girly for her taste. Even though she had the power, she always felt embarrassed to fight the demons like this. However, Kyubbey had to remind her to focus, which she lacked in the beginning of her "career" as a magical girl. However, as time went on, she got used to it and tolerated it. But now, after seeing the visions again, she was starting to question herself. Is she really who she thinks she is?
"Say Kyubbey, have you heard of this name, Homura? It seems quite familiar but I can't quite put my finger to it."
It was only times like this when she referred to her Samurott as Kyubbey, only when battling trainers she does not for obvious reasons. She felt more comfortable when speaking to him in private, questioning him on the topic of magical girls and their existence.
"I cannot say I have, but it does ring a bell. I will have to refer to my data in order to do so. I'll let you know if I do."
Touko sighed. The only thing he would talk about was collecting data, he would only fight along-side her for the benefit of collecting data first hand. Sometimes she wondered what went on inside of his head. She knew he loved talking about entropy which she found disturbing. She led a carefree life and that topic did not cross her mind until she met him. She stood up and returned him into his Pokéball, the first few times when she spoke to him caused some stares from people, oh how naïve she was! (When he was an Oshwatt, it was okay, he was smaller back then and could fit in a room easily.) But as he evolved, it was more awkward, imagine trying to fit a large Pokémon in a room!
Nonetheless, she popped by a small café and ordered a coffee. She ruminated and felt that she should explore other regions to find out more information. As she sipped her coffee, she had an epiphany, what if that vision was a clue? That there were other magical girls out there? She finished her coffee and paid the bill. She decided that this would be her new quest, to find out if the other regions had magical girls. She was hesitant at first, due to being the only magical girl of the Unova region, afraid that the demons born out of grief would run amok without her. However, it was fortunate that this was a time of peace and there were few incidents of people going missing or dying under mysterious circumstances. She had to take this chance. Maybe form a team of magical girls, she mused. With that note, she set her sight to visit the Sinnoh region.
