I do not own pokemon or its characters in any way

It was late at night, I should be sleeping right now but I was too anxious for tomorrow to rest, All I did was toss and turn in my bed and count Mareep in my mind so I had finally given up, so much for getting a good night's rest. I sat up and looked out of the window, viewing the outside world and the beautiful moonlit sky. There wasn't a cloud in sight so I was able to see the stars that were scattered across the sky.

I wonder if N is awake too. I thought to myself. I wonder how he is doing right now, I doubt that he can rest after what I had told him earlier, I could see fear in his eyes, reminding my of how a child would be scared when they were in the dark. Seeing him like that made melancholy wash over me. It hurt me to have seen him like that. But I find it weird that his father would still acknowledged his son's existence knowing that he abandoned N before he was ever born. Maybe he wanted to use N, but for what?

There were many questions that stirred in my head that needed to be answered. What is Team Plasma's purpose here? Were they after N or the Legendary pokemon that showed up here? And if it's the legendary pokemon they were after then could N and I really protect them? Would we even find those pokemon in time?

Maybe it's too soon to these questions to be answered, I'll only have to wait and see what fate had in store for me.

Suddenly a feeling of pain washed over me, I took my hand and put it on my forehead. It was another headache, I had them more recently since the day I met N. But this time, it was more painful than the others. I tried taking medicine for it but that had no affect.

My eyes turned to the pokeball on my nightstand, making an idea pop into my head. I reached over to the ball and released Lilli from it. The grass pokemon looked at me with glee. I tried to smile at her but the pain only got worse, Lilli panicked and put her leaf-like hand on my forehead. "Don't worry, I'll be okay. The pain is just a bit overbearing" I forced a smile on my face and gently removed Lilli's arm off me. "I wanted to see if you could use sleep powder on me, I'm having some sleeping problems tonight too" I said, Lilli nodded and allowed me some time to get into a sleeping position that was comfortable to me. Lilli formed a small cloud of dust and blew it towards me. My eyes slowly began to close and I begun to drift into slumber but moments before doing so I thought that I saw a silhouette of a pokemon flying near my window.

N"s POV

"So my assumption was true" Cassidy said. I was currently outside informing Mom about what Miyuki had encountered today. I knew she was dreading the day that Team Plasma would make their first move but we both knew that it couldn't be avoided, that's part of the reason we came back here. "Yeah, and now Miyuki is involved in it, I was a fool to tell her about them" I said in regret.

"You were just telling her the truth and nothing more, and its her decision on whether or not she wants to help. So is it true, about her hiding pokemon too?" Cassidy asked. "She does, but I won't know what pokemon she has until tomorrow" I said, I wondered what kind of trainer she was. And her bond she had with them.

"Pid, Pidove" I turned to a pidove who was flying to us but I could tell that this wasn't Pidove but instead my pokemon and friend; Zoroark. "There you are Zoroark" I said happy to see him safe. He changed from the Pidove form back into his normal form. "Tell me, my friend. How is Miyuki?" I asked the fox pokemon.

There's no need to worry, she is safe and sound in her home.

I smiled in relief, and petted Zoroark on his thick red fur. "That's good, thank you for checking up on her" I said in gratitude. "Natural, it might be best to have Zoroark check up on her daily just to be safe" Cassidy suggested. I nodded. "I already plan on doing so" I turned down to Zoroark to speak face to face with him. "you don't mind, do you zoroark?" I asked, making sure that Zoroark was in agreement. Not at all, I'll do whatever I can to make sure that she is not in danger or threatened, besides doing this will keep me from boredom during this time of night. Zoroark replied with a smug smirk.

"So are you sure you want to go and spy on Team Plasma tonight?" I asked knowing her anwser. "I think it would be best, besides I will have my pokemon with me so I'll be fine" She said before reaching for her pokeball in her pocket, releasing her salamance. She managed to get on his back and was prepared to fly off. "If anything happens while I'm gone, just contact me. And be safe, okay?" She said. "don't worry, I should be fine" I said, trying to assure her. She bid farewell and flew off into the night sky.

Miyuki's POV

I heard the annoying sound from my alarm clock, being the person who hates mornings I groaned and tiredly pressed the snooze button. I told myself that I would get up within the next five minutes but kept pressing snooze, not wanting to leave my bed. I could hear a groan in annoyance from Lilli as she took my clock and managed to turn the alarm off, it was obvious that she had woken up by my silly antics. I hesitated and lazily got out of bed rubbing my tired eyes.

I looked at Lilli and chuckled "Sorry Lilli, you can go back to sleep if you want" I walked over to my dresser and picked out my attire for today. I decides to wear a long-sleeved shirt consisting of blue and black stripes and the usual pair of jeans along with gray sneakers. "I on the other hand will get ready for the day and make breakfast for the both of us" I smiled with a neatly folded pile of clothes in my arms. Lilli yawned and got back on the bed, instead of sleeping on the end of the bed like she usually does when I'm sleeping it in she had the whole area to herself and took advantage of the moment, laying in the middle of it and enjoying the comfort as she drifted back into slumber.

So I took a shower like I usually do during the morning, enjoying the warm droplets of water hit my skin as I cleaned myself off. Once I was finished I got dressed and took my time by blow drying my hair and then brushing it, making sure that every tangle was gone.

"Lilli lilligant!" I heard Lilli from the other side of the bathroom door and knocked on it, I guessed that she was checking up on me. I was taking longer than I usually do to get prepared after all. I put the brush down smiled at how motherly she was to me. Even as a Petlil she would always worry about my well-being. I opened the door, and saw Lilli who was still by the door. "Sorry Lilli, I just wanted to take my time with things today, so are you ready for breakfast now?" I asked the grass-type. She cheerfully nodded and followed me downstairs, and as to be expected my Mom had went to work hours ago, leaving the house to Lilli and I.

I went into the kitchen and began to make us some oran berry pancakes, Lilli had gathered all the ingredences as I prepared the stove and took out a pan from the nearby cabinet. It didn't much time to make the pancakes. Lilli and I spent an hour eating beside each other on the sofa and watched TV there was nothing really special on at the moment so we watched the local news, it informed me about this week's forecast. It turned out that there wouldn't be rain for the rest of the week, other than that nothing out of the ordinary was happening.

After breakfast I spent the remained or my free time by completing my chores that Mom expected me to do and of course Lilli gave me a hand with them. Once I was done cleaning my room I heard the doorbell ring, I walked down the stairs with Lilli feeling nervous about what will happen today. But I kept my feelings to myself and tried to think positive about today. Before opening the door Lilli tugged at my jeans, worried whether she had to hide from the visitor. "Don't worry, there's no need to hide this time" I said, calming Lilli down. I opened the door and saw N who had waited for my to answer the door.

"Good evening N, you're here earlier than I expected" I greeted him. "Sorry, I guess I was too anxious to wait any longer" N's eyes turned to Lilli whi was hiding behind my legs. "Oh, this must be one of your pokemon, right?" I smiled and nodded. "Yep, this is my Lilligant; Lilli" I turned to Lilligant, who looked nervous. "It's okay Lilli, N is a friend of mine, he came here today to meet you and everyone else" I explained the situation to her, Lilli looked at N who gave Lilli a reassuring smile. "Miyuki is right, you can trust me. I promise you that I won't do anything to her or any of her pokemon" N said, he spoke to Lilli rather comfortably and easier than he did with humans.

"Now why don't we go inside and continue our conversation there?" I suggested, motioning N to come in. I lead him to the living room and sat across from him. I sat on the sofa while N was on the recliner, Lilli stood inches from N and observed him with eyes full of curiosity. "Lilligant, Lillli" She said to N, he smiled as if he understood what she had said. "You think so? Well thank you, I appreciate the compliment" He replied.

"Hold on, you know what she said?" I asked. N blushed as if he was embarrassed to answer. "Well...yeah I did. She told me that my hair looked beautiful to her" He managed to say. I smiled which surprised him for some reason. "So does that mean that you have a special ability?" I asked. "Actually yes, ever since I first time I met a pokemon I somehow understood what they said, so I was able to communicate with them with no trouble at all. This might sound really silly to you to believe..."

"No, not at all. I believe your words, I mean, why wouldn't I believe you?" I asked him. "Sorry, I guess I was letting the past get to me again" I'll admit, N is full of mystery but at the same time its pretty interesting. " Well that's okay, I can see why you would be hesitant to tell me this, I'm sure you've told people about your ability who might not have believed you or just thought strangely about you. There are a lot of people like that in the world" I said. "It wouldn't be as bad if there was more people like you in the world" N said making me blush a little.

"So where are the rest of your pokemon" N asked, eager to see them. "well, you see my other Pokemon are not with me at the moment, that's why I wasn't able to show you them yesterday. If your ready then I can take you to them now, but I'd prefer to travel there on foot if you don't mind" I said. "I don't mind one bit, if your ready then let's go ahead and head out" He stood up from his seat and I followed but quickly lost my balance, I closed my eyes expecting to hit the carpet floor but to my surprise I didn't take the fall, I opened my eyes to see N holding me. His arms held me and I felt my face go red when I realized that my face was on his chest, my heart began to race from his touch and seconds felt like hours when he finally spoke. "Are you okay? You should be more careful"

I was about to reply when a sudden pain rushed over me. It was another headache, why did it have to come now? My vision went blurry and faded out and was instead replaced with the sight of a child sitting under the shadow of a tree. He had green hair but I couldn't make out the color of his eyes due to his hands hiding them, I could see tears stream down his face and noticed that his Pokemon which consisted of a Daramitan, Woobat and a Zoura. They tried to comfort the poor boy, seeing the boy like this made me feel sad for some reason, could this boy be N as a child?

Suddenly the vision faded out and I was back to reality and strangly enough, my headache dissappered along with it. "Miyuki?" N said, grabbing my attention. I noticed that I was still in the same place with him before that vision arose. my face turned red again and I got back on my feet, "Sorry, I guess I just got lost in thought" I gave out a nervous laugh. Not wanting to explain what I just saw, I decided to keep it to myself.
