DarkFoxKit: Merry Christmas! Wow, I don't know about you, but Christmas sure came pretty fast for me.
Darkzdragon: Yup, and like we said, we're giving you guys a Christmas present. We're posting the chapter a day earlier than we normally do. Oh and Dusk, thanks for the Goo-Gone, I finally got all that sticky goo off of me before it caused any permanent changes.
DarkFoxKit: Oh come on, it's just slimy goo.
Darkzdragon: Mew told me that if I didn't get it off I would permanently become a goo dragon.
DarkFoxKit: Probably only works if she uses her powers with that goo. But anyways, we better just get on with the chapter so everyone can enjoy their present and have a happy holiday.
Darkzdragon: Oh, just to let everyone know. A few of the upcoming chapters won't revolve around Ash. There will be an OC character from a project that is currently in the works between Fox and I. And then we will also be doing sidestory related to a certain Team Rocket member. We hope you guys enjoy them.
DarkFoxKit: Don't worry, the OC isn't permanent or anything, you can see it as filler or something later for the future, who knows? :3
Chapter 21: Strange Visitor
Mew was gathering up some berries to eat. She was a carnivore by nature, but she could still allow herself to indulge on non-meat food as all Pokemon could. She had a pink egg in a precious basket covered with the softest green leaves she could find. All of her child's Pokemon were off playing with the other Pokemon for the time being. Mew refused to let the egg out of her sight. If she needed to eat meat, she would ask if one of Ash's Pokemon could bring her some.
Mew had the Lapras music box beside her, wanting to use it for when Ash finally hatches. She loved the music box as it would always soothe her.
Suddenly, there was a small explosion nearby. Mew was immediately on guard. None of the other Pokemon were with her right at the time so she was confused as to the cause of the explosion. Mew cautiously flew to where she heard it. There was a small crate with someone laying in it. She looked down curiously, seeing the dust and debris clearing up. There appeared to be a young human girl, looking to be in her child stage. The human girl had somewhat short black hair, and she was wearing a purple and yellow striped shirt and dark blue shorts.
"Ugh…" The girl groaned as she stirred from the crater. "Ow… that… didn't go as I wanted…"
Mew looked at the human before telepathically asking, "Are you okay, child? Where did you come from? And who are you?"
The human child tensed up and looked around before looking up to see Mew looking curiously and concern at her.
"Whoa!" The girl scrambled up to her feet before looking at Mew with the same curious expression. "... I've never seen a cat floating before… and why are you naked?"
"I am not a cat!" Mew said telepathically, upset that she would be related to a creature like a cat. "And what do you mean naked? This is how all Pokemon go around."
The human child tilted her head, confused, "Uh… what's a Pokemon? Is that a new species?"
Mew's eyes went wide, "How do you not know about Pokemon? This entire world is filled with them."
"What?" The human child frowned. "I don't remember seeing anyone else like you. And why are you speaking in my head? Are you using telepathy magic? I didn't know ca- … Pokemon could do that, whatever those are."
The human child looked around before she said, "And where am I…?"
"This is the Tree of Beginning," Mew said telepathically. "And this is my home. What did you mean by magic? Yes I am using telepathy, but it is a power, not a… magic."
"Tree of Beginning?" The human child said, surprised. "I'm in a tree? Huh… oh… I guess I messed up more than I thought I did. This… probably isn't my world anymore."
Mew needed to know what this human child was talking about, so she started to read her mind.
The human girl sensed something or someone probing her mind. She quickly put up mental barriers, preventing Mew from reading much of anything. All Mew got was a name and an image of unfamiliar world with no Pokemon in it.
"Your name is Zeltrax?" Mew asked. "That is a strange name for a human."
The human child looked at Mew sheepishly before she said, "Uh… no, that's the name of a close friend of mine. I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, how rude of me. My name is Kara Quartz, what's yours?"
"My name and species is Mew," Mew replied. "How is it possible that you come from a world with no Pokemon…"
Maybe Palkia knows something about this… Mew thought to herself.
"Uh… well…" Kara hesitated. "In my world, there's a thing called magic and… hmm… maybe I shouldn't say too much. I don't want to disrupt the world order. I'm probably breaking a lot of laws just by being here."
"You're right… we wouldn't want you to disrupt the order of our world," Mew said. "Now… are you hurt at all? Because you are standing in a crater that was most likely made when you got here."
"Oh…" Kara looked at the small crate she made. "I'm a little sore, but I've had worse. I'll try to go back to my own world now, sorry for the mess."
Kara closed her eyes and concentrated, she moved her hands close to her chest as if trying to draw something out. Mew sensed an unusual energy in this girl, but it felt strained. Kara began panting before dropping on her knees, looking exhausted.
"Are you okay?!" Mew asked as she flew closer to human girl named Kara.
"Ugh…" Kara groaned. "I… I think I… drained most of my… magic…"
"Then you should rest," Mew said. "As long as you stay here you minimize your chances of affecting this world."
"I guess you're right, but…" Kara looked at something that was behind Mew. "What are those?"
Mew turned around to see familiar red blobs. How could I forget!? The Tree would think Kara is a threat...
"Stop! Kara isn't a threat!" Mew said, hoping the Tree would hear her before the antibodies tried to attack Kara.
"A threat? There's a defense system here?" Kara said, surprised, but she didn't sound worried.
"Wait you can understand me?" Mew asked in PokeSpeak.
Before Kara could answer, one of the red blobs jumped at her. The bracelet on Kara's wrist suddenly shined brightly, creating a bright red bubble around the girl which stopped the antibodies from touching her. Mew looked in shock, having never seen this kind of technology before.
"I said STOP!" Mew said again loudly before going to one of the crystals nearby. "I know what I said, and I am protecting my child, but don't attack her. Kara is not a threat. I can sense she means no harm. … Thank you."
Kara was looking at the antibodies as they dispersed and went into the crystals. "Whoa… Zeltrax would have a field day here."
"Okay. I have a list of questions for you," Mew said. "First, you can understand me? Secondly, what was that? How did you create that bubble?"
"Of course I can understand you," Kara said. "Aren't you speaking in English right now? And the bubble thing was made by Sk- … my bracelet. My father wouldn't let me go anywhere without it."
"No I'm not speaking English. I'm speaking the language of Pokemon," Mew said. "And what kind of bracelet can create a bubble?"
"Oh, well it sounds like English to me," Kara said. "Must be because of my powers, it lets me understand all foreign languages. I learned it from my father since he originally inherited this power. I know, I know, if this were a story I'd be a total Mary Sue character right now. Anyways, this bracelet isn't from your world, so let's just say where I come from, we have advanced technology that I'm guessing this world doesn't have yet."
"I see…" Mew said. "Well… you're here now. And until you gain enough of your magic back, I am guessing you will be unable to leave."
"That seems to be the case," Kara said before frowning in concern about something. "Mew, is there any technology that could make artificial meat?"
Mew shook her head, "Nope. If you want meat then you are going to have to hunt or go to a human city and buy some… though I doubt you have any money."
Kara gave a sigh before tapping something on her bracelet. Mew watched in curiosity.
"How long will it take until my magic recovers enough that I can get out of here without eating meat?" Kara asked the bracelet.
"I am sorry Kara," The bracelet responded. "It would take a few months if you didn't eat any meat. And even if you do eat meat it will still take you a few days to recover your magic energy. You are nearly drained… I mean you just travelled through dimensions."
Kara sighed, "I was afraid of that…"
"What was that?" Mew asked, her curiosity growing more and more.
"That was Skai," Kara said. "That's what my father called the artificial intelligence inhabiting my bracelet."
"Wait… an artificial intelligence?" Mew repeated.
"Um…" Kara looked at Mew. "How much do you know about technology and computers?"
I wonder if this artificial intelligence is anything like Ash's Porygon friend… Mew thought to herself. "I know just a little."
"Hmm… I wonder if this world is… I'll ask later," Kara said. "Well artificial intelligence is like how you and I can talk to each other and can think for itself, but it's made by someone. Does that make sense? Like say… a computer can talk back to you and think for itself, but it had to be made and programed by someone to do that. It also has a personality and emotions like you or I would have if it's advanced enough."
"I see…" Mew said with a nod before she remembered something extremely important. "Ashy!"
Mew flew over to the basket keeping her egg. The egg was there, nice and safe. Mew sighed in relief.
Kara walked over to Mew and looked at the pink egg herself, "Hey, is that a dragon egg?"
"No, this is my egg," Mew said. "This is Ashy, my unhatched son. Unlike humans… us Pokemon lay eggs when we have children."
"All Pokemon lay eggs, including mammals? … What am I saying? I don't even know anything about Pokemon," Kara said sheepishly. "So you already named your child and you know it's going to be a boy? … Are you psychic?"
"I am a Psychic type, but that isn't the reason I know that Ashy is a boy," Mew responded. "Maybe I'll tell you how I know later, after I get to know you a bit better."
"That's fine, you don't have to tell me," Kara said. "It's not really any of my business. I'm just grateful you're letting me stay here until I can recover and go back home."
"What were you doing that you ended up here anyways?" Mew asked.
Kara sat down, feeling tired, "I was trying to go somewhere to help someone, but… I guess I overshot it since I ended up here instead of my destination."
"Where were you headed?" Mew asked.
"I rather not say," Kara said. "I've already told you more things than I should."
"Hmmm… well I'm a being with dimensional powers as well," Mew said. "So I understand your hesitance. But trust me, if you do tell me about your origin and why you ended up here I will keep it secret. If I don't tell anyone then the order of the world won't be disrupted."
"Well…" Kara looked at Mew with hesitance.
"How about this," Mew said. "If you tell me about you and your world, I will tell you about mine and even show you around until you regain your magic."
"Hmm…" Kara thought about it. "I probably shouldn't, but I am curious about your world. Okay, but I'll only tell you what I think is safe to tell you."
"That is fine, then I shall only tell you things that won't affect you or your world," Mew said.
Kara laid down on the soft grass and looked up at the blue sky that seemed so close yet so far away.
"Okay then, why don't you ask me what you want to know?" Kara suggested. "I think it'll be easier to answer questions then give you my life story."
"Hmmm… alright," Mew said. "What's the name of your planet?"
"The planet is called Terra," Kara answered.
Mew chuckled, hearing the name reminded her of a certain Groudon girl.
"What?" Kara asked.
"Ashy here has a friend named Terra," Mew said with a smile. "She's a fiery one if you get on her bad side. But she is also really caring."
"Your unhatched son made a friend?" Kara raised her eyebrow.
"That would be interesting but no," Mew responded. "Ashy used to be a human like you. But after a recent event I had to rebirth him as my true child in order to stabilize his form."
Kara blinked and looked at the egg, "You can do that? Wow, not even with all our advanced technology and magic could we do something like that."
"Yes I can," Mew said. "Ashy here was an eleven year old human. But once he hatches he will be a shiny pureblood Mew like me. He'll have all his memories… but we'll still need to train his body."
Kara shivered.
"Is something wrong?" Mew asked.
"Just… having flashbacks…" Kara shivered.
Mew shrugged before saying, "I even have cute little Pokemon diapers for him to wear until he is in control of his new muscles."
"Oh my dragon goddess…" Kara groaned, burying her head in her arms.
"Are you sure you are fine?" Mew asked before she heard a small growl coming from Kara. "...are you perchance… hungry?"
Kara lifted her head from her arms, her face a bit red as if she was thinking about something embarrassing.
"Just a little… using magic makes me hungry, especially large magics like what I used to get here," Kara said.
"Hmmm… well I don't want to leave Ashy… but I couldn't just leave you to go hunting on your own," Mew said before she remembered. "I'll have the Regis and Ashy's Pokemon watch him while I help you out… that way I can feel safe leaving his side."
"I can get by with just any wild berries growing around here," Kara said. "I'm an omnivore after all. Besides, even if I could go hunting, I wouldn't have the heart to kill anyone, especially since I'm trying not to mess up the world's order."
"Kara, if you don't eat any meat then you will be stuck here for weeks or even months," Skai, the bracelet on Kara's right wrist, said. "Zeltrax would get extremely worried about you if you were gone for that long… and you know how he can get…"
"I know," Kara said with a sigh.
"Then I recommend hunting… or you could always go try and find a human city or town and use that special magic to create something you could sell," Skai said.
"Out of curiosity, why do you need meat to use your magic?" Mew asked.
Kara sheepishly scratched her head before she said, "Well… the magic I'm using is dragon magic. They require meat since most of them are carnivorous by nature."
"Dragon magic?" Mew asked. "So by using this magic you have to eat like a dragon?"
"Pretty much, yeah," Kara said. "I take it you know what dragons are, right?"
"There exist Dragon type Pokemon here, so yes, I have a rough idea," Mew said. "But you're human, right? Why do you have dragon magic?"
"It's hard to explain," Kara sighed.
"I understand," Mew said. "Let me summon the Regis and Ashy's Pokemon so they can watch him while I take you hunting."
"Hunting?" Kara asked. "Oh that's okay, we don't have to. Besides, I know how protective mothers can get with their children."
Another, louder, growl emanates from Kara.
"You say we don't have to, but your body says otherwise," Mew said with a sly smile. "Besides, if you don't eat meat then you may be stuck here for much longer than you need to be. And didn't your bracelet say that your father would be worried about you?"
"... Well, I've never hunted before," Kara said. "Isn't there a human town that sells meat?"
"Do you have any money? Or anything you could sell for some money?" Mew asked.
"Ah, I think I might have something I could sell for currency," Kara said. "So would you mind if you could take me to the nearest place I could eat in?"
"No I wouldn't mind… but the closest place to buy any food would be a few hours away," Mew said. "I can easily teleport us there, though I will have to use transform… otherwise the humans might try to capture me, especially since the only Mews in existence are me and Ashy."
"You two are the only ones?" Kara looked at her in shock. "Oh, I didn't realize you were an endangered species. Isn't there any protective laws against poaching endangered species?"
"We aren't endangered," Mew responded. "Until now, it has always just been me. And it isn't poaching, here on Earth humans can capture Pokemon and use them in battle. There are some, like Team Rocket, that steal and capture Pokemon for evil purposes. But most of the time humans and Pokemon live side by side, helping each other out. Though there are Legendary Pokemon, like myself, where only one of us exists. Meaning the humans would want to capture us as soon as they saw us. While other Pokemon, like Rattata and Pidgey are extremely common, meaning most humans only capture one or two of them."
Kara was looking at Mew in fascination. "This almost sounds like something out of a video game. Finding creatures and raising them for battling other creatures. But you talk a lot about humans, what about the others?"
"Others?" Mew asked.
"You know, like a fox or a rabbit, maybe an ox or… do you know what I'm talking about?" Kara asked.
"I have some clue as to what you are talking about," Mew said. "But currently on this planet there are only humans and Pokemon. There used to be animal species with those names, but since the Earth evolved, they've all either gone extinct or became Pokemon themselves with my DNA."
"What?" Kara looked at her in shock. "Your DNA? Animals aren't… anthropomorphic here?"
"No, there are no anthropomorphic animals here," Mew said. "Humans are the only species that speaks their language and drive cars and do everything else humans do."
"Odd… I was expecting the Pokemon to be the anthropomorphic species along with the humans here, but the way you describe it, they're the animals of this planet but with more intelligence. And you said your DNA is what transformed them?" Kara asked. "How?"
Mew shrugged before she said, "Well, you might want to brush up on the history of this world. Then again, the history might be wrong since humans are always changing it until it's to the point that Arceus is the big creator of the universe. Sorry, you don't know Arceus. Basically, the humans treat him as the 'god' of this universe."
"But I'm guessing he's not?" Kara asked.
Mew gave a smile before she said, "No, but he is powerful."
"I see…" Kara said. "Well, I think that's enough talk about that. You say you can teleport me to a nearby town, right? I can wait until you're ready to leave. I'm sure you want to make sure your egg is safe."
"Just give me… five minutes," Mew said before she picked up the basket with Ash's egg in it. "Then I will be back and we can go."
Mew flew down a bit, putting Ash's basket next to the mountain to toys. "I promise I'll be back soon, Ashy."
Mew then used her telepathy to call Ash's Pokemon as well as one of the Regis. "So I will be gone for a few hours, I have something to take care of. So I expect you to take care of Ashy for me."
Mew could hear confirmation from the Pokemon she called and smiled before flying back up to where Kara was waiting. Normally she wouldn't have taken this much interest in a human she doesn't know, but something about Kara had piqued her interest.
"So, are you ready?" Kara asked.
"Yup, we're gonna go to a place called Celadon City," Mew said.
"That sounds like a color name," Kara said. "What's at Celadon City?"
"It's probably the second biggest city in this region, just under Saffron City. You'll find places there that will most likely accommodate for you," Mew answered.
Kara nodded and said, "Okay, let's go there then."
"Give me one second," Mew said before she used transform to turn into Delilah. "Okay, now we can go."
Kara looked at her before giving her the thumbs up, "Nice, you look just like a human woman. My friend Zac- I mean Zeltrax would transform into a human man when he wants to interact with people. His true form tends to scare or intimidate people."
"Hmmm, he sounds like an interesting fellow," Delilah said before she held out her hand. "Hold my hand, then we can teleport. Oh and you may want to bend your knees, first time teleportation can be a little rough."
Kara took Mew-Delilah's hand before they disappeared in a flash. Kara suddenly found herself standing just outside of a big looking city. Kara stumbled a little from the teleportation, but managed to keep her balance since she was holding Mew-Delilah's hand.
"Whoa, teleportation is awesome," Kara said.
"Yup, it's very helpful," Mew said. "But you can't let anyone know that I can do this, humans don't have powers like teleportation."
"Yeah, I know," Kara said. "I take it the humans aren't that much different here than they are in my world. We are actually the weakest species on Terra, because we lack the natural abilities that the other species on our planet have."
The two of them walked into Celadon City. It was full of people walking around, Kara could see several different species of creatures following these humans, some were small enough to clutch on the human's shoulder or head. Some looked like animals, but not any animal Kara's ever seen, while others looked like inanimate objects that are somehow alive. These must be the Pokemon Mew told her about.
"Okay, the first thing we need to do is get you money," Delilah said. "You said you had an idea on that?"
"Yeah," Kara said before putting her hand in her pocket before taking out what appeared to be a purple crystal stone. "I have some amethyst gems with me in case I would need to make some quick cash."
"Wow, that's beautiful," Delilah said. "We should take you to a gem store then, that way they can evaluate it and possibly even buy it."
"Okay," Kara said. "How well do you know this city or should I explore at my own leisure?"
"We should probably explore," Delilah said. "Though it's a big city, so stay close."
Kara nodded as they began walking around the city. Kara looked around, in awe at seeing humans with these creatures called Pokemon walking around everywhere. She looked at the restaurants, the supermarket, a lot of tall buildings, and a place called the Pokemon Center, which was a hospital for Pokemon and a place for traveling people called Pokemon Trainers to rest.
"Oh, I think I see a gem store," Delilah said. Up ahead was a store with a neon sign hanging above the front door. The neon sign was in the shape of a gem. "Let's go."
Kara followed Delilah into the gem store, where there were a lot of people, mostly woman, looking at the precious stones shown in the fancy display cases. Kara went to one of the counters and waited for an employee to talk to her. She waited for ten minutes before she saw someone.
"Hey, excuse me," Kara said, waving her arms.
"Oh?" The male employee turned around and looked down at Kara. "How can I help you?"
"I would like to sell a gem, please," Kara said politely.
"Okay, let me see what you have," The employee said.
Kara took the amethyst out from her pocket and put it in front of the employee. "How much would I get for a pure amethyst gem?"
The man took out a magnifying glass from his pocket and put it up to his eye before he carefully took the gem and looked at it. "Wow… in my entire thirty year career I have never seen such a perfect piece of amethyst. Where did you get this?"
"My… mother gave it to me," Kara said with some hesitance. "So how much can I get for it?"
"I… I'll pay five hundred thousand for this," The employee said.
Kara gave a small whistle, "Okay, five hundred thousand it is."
The employee took the gem to the counter and placed it in a safe before he grabbed some money from it and a piece of paper. He filled out the piece of paper. "Go ahead and sign this and you can get your five hundred thousand."
Kara took the piece of paper, and the employee handed her a pen to write with.
"As her acting guardian I will sign for her," Delilah said as she walked over and took the pen. Delilah then signed the slip and the employee handed the stack of cash to Kara. "There you go, five hundred thousand."
With the cash in hand, the two of them left the gem store.
"Well that was profitable," Kara said.
"We may want to go create a card to deposit that money, or get a briefcase for it," Delilah said. "We shouldn't carry around this much cash with us."
"We'll get a briefcase for it then, because I may not stick around long enough to use a card for it," Kara said.
"Alright, and whatever we don't use I can save. Just in case you ever end up here again," Delilah said. "Now let's go look for a briefcase for your money."
"This supermarket might carry a few briefcases," Kara said, pointing at the large supermarket building.
"Then let's go in," Delilah said.
The supermarket carried all sorts of stuff. There were items that Kara never heard of, like Potions, Poke Balls and Thunderstones. She was fascinated by these items that were primarily used for Pokemon purposes. Delilah helped her pick a briefcase out so Kara could safely store her money.
"I would say that while we are here we should pick up some meat… but there's no kitchen or anything in the Tree of Beginning," Delilah said.
"Then maybe we could eat at that restaurant we passed by earlier," Kara said. "It smelled like they have all sorts of food there."
"Well then let's go buy this briefcase and then go eat something," Delilah said.
After Kara paid for the briefcase and stored her money in it, she and Delilah left the supermarket and made their way into the restaurant. Kara was pretty much drooling when they entered.
"Hi there," A waitress said when they stepped up to a stand. "Table or booth? And will it just be you two?"
"Yes, and booth, please," Delilah said.
The waitress picked up a couple of menus before she said, "Right this way, please."
The waitress lead the two to a booth near the window before setting the menus down. "Please take your time."
Kara looked at the menu, "Wow, there's so much food here I want to try out."
"With the amount of money you got you could probably order one of everything," Delilah said as she looked at her menu.
"Maybe I'll do that," Kara said.
"Really? But would you be able to eat all of it?" Delilah asked.
Kara gave a sheepish grin, "... Maybe."
"Okay, what would you two like to drink? And can I get you started with any appetizers?" The waitress asked when she came back over to their table. "Or are you two ready to order?"
"I'm ready to order," Kara said. "For drinks, I'll take some soda. As for the food, I'd like one of everything off the menu please."
The waitress looked at Kara and then at Delilah, "Umm ma'am… maybe you should order for your daughter…"
"She's free to order what she wants," Delilah said. "As for me, I'll take cranberry juice, a salad, and big roasted Combusken."
"O… okay…" The waitress wrote something down. "I will be right back with your drinks… and my manager."
"Think me ordering one of everything is a cause of concern?" Kara asked Delilah as the waitress walked away.
"Well it is a large menu, and you are just a child," Delilah said. "So she will probably get her manager who will come over and confirm that you are actually ordering one of everything, and that we can pay for it."
After a few minutes later, the waitress came back with her manager, who was a tall looking man.
"Hi there," The manager said. "My waitress here told me that you wanted to order one of everything from the menu. Is that true?"
"Yes, it's true, sir," Kara said. "Is that a problem?"
"You do know it's a large menu, right?" The manager said. "And you're a very young child, so I'm hoping your mother would know that eating so much food is unhealthy."
Kara sighed before she said, "We can afford to pay for it all, and if the customer wants one of everything, then give it to them. I see no law in saying I can't order one of everything."
"I hope you don't mind me asking miss," The manager said to Delilah. "But can you really pay for all of that? And should your daughter really be eating that much?"
"Yes, we can. Kara go ahead and show him," Delilah said.
Kara picked up the briefcase and put it on the table before opening it to reveal the money.
"And besides, my daughter is really hungry," Delilah said.
The manager's eyes went wide as he looked at the money in the briefcase. "I'll have the kitchen get started on your orders right away." And with that, he and the waitress left.
A few moments later the waitress came back with their drinks and apologized. "I am truly sorry about that. But never before has someone ordered the entire menu."
"It's fine," Delilah said. "If we don't finish our food, we'll just take it home and give some to our neighbors."
While Kara and Delilah were waiting for their order, Kara looked out the window, seeing more of those Pokemon playing around with people.
"So Mew-" Kara started to say.
"While I'm like this, it's Delilah," Delilah corrected.
"Okay, Delilah, could you tell me a little bit more about Pokemon?" Kara asked. "Are they kept as pets by humans?"
"Not always as pets," Delilah said. "Some do take the role of pets. While others are friends, partners, and even family. Most kids these days go on Pokemon adventures. Where they capture Pokemon and battle other trainers. And while yes, that could sound bad, it is usually fun for both the trainer and the Pokemon."
"Hmm… Delilah, you've got to tell me more," Kara said. "While I'm here I'd like to know more about this world."
"Only if you tell me more about your world," Delilah responded.
"My world is interesting, but it doesn't have anything like creature collecting, and it's illegal to capture anyone," Kara chuckled sheepishly.
"Still, your world has things that I have never seen or heard of before," Delilah said. "I mean you have magic, and technology that is way advanced beyond our time."
"Kara, if you really want to know about this world I could interface with a network and download all data that they have," Skai, Kara's AI bracelet, said. "That way you could look at it even after we leave."
"I don't know if we should, Skai," Kara said. "It might be dangerous to take information from this world and take it to our own."
"I don't think it will," Skai said. "They are technologically less advanced, and we don't have any of their Pokemon. As long as we kept it between you and me, there would be no possible danger."
"I guess… hey, if anyone ever sees it, I can just tell them I'm making a video game," Kara chuckled.
The waitress came back rolling a cart full of food. The table wasn't big enough to fit all the food, so the waitress had to push one of the unoccupied tables to their's and add the rest of the food to it. It was like a big feast meant for thirty or so people.
"This is the food that the cooks could make first," The waitress said. "The rest of your food will be out in a bit."
Delilah and Kara started to dig in right away. By the time Kara finished half the plates, the waitress brought in the rest of the food, shocked to see that half of the dish was already cleaned out. In about an hour, Kara finished all the plates. She gave a satisfied smile after she finished her last plate of food.
"That hit the spot," Kara said. "I didn't realize how hungry I was until I started eating."
"Wow, I am genuinely surprised," Delilah said. "No human could possibly consume even half that much food you just ate, not even the most gluttonous. You can put a Munchlax to shame with that appetite."
"I guess I was just hungry," Kara said with a sheepish smile.
"With the amount of food you ate… it will take a day or two for you to get your full energy back," Skai said softly. "Also, someone recorded you scarfing down the food, Kara."
Kara looked around and realized people were staring in awe and shock. She blushed and began to sink in her chair. "... This is embarrassing…"
"Well then, let's pay for the bill, leave a nice tip and give some to the chefs as well, and then we can get out of here," Delilah said before she turned to the people. "Do you mind not staring at my daughter, she is very shy."
The people all turned back to their own table and started chatting among themselves, though most of them were talking about how a little girl was able to devour that much food.
Kara was more than happy to pay the bills, give the tips to the chefs and the waitress before leaving. "I've forgotten that humans don't see other humans eat that much food. I think next time I'll just buy food and eat it somewhere in private."
"Don't let it bother you," Delilah said. "You'll only be here for a few days, so live life like you just don't care."
"Hey, I'm not supposed to expose too much to this world, remember?" Kara said. "This is going to be up on the internet, isn't it…"
Delilah chuckled before she said, "Let's try to get your mind off of it."
"Y-yeah," Kara said. "Worrying about it now won't do much good. So maybe you can take me someplace where I can learn a little bit more about Pokemon?"
"Hmmm… I think I know of a good place to do that," Delilah said. "How would you like to go see a Pokemon Gym that also doubles as a Pokemon School?"
"A Pokemon School in a Pokemon Gym?" Kara asked. "Okay, maybe it'll teach me what a Pokemon Gym is for too."
Delilah lead Kara to where she remembered the Pokemon Gym was in Celadon City. She smiled to see the Vileplume building was standing tall and proud in the city.
"Let's go in," Delilah said. "Oh and I should warn you… don't talk badly about their perfume. They will kick you out and ban you if you do."
"What? Wow, they must be really strict with the perfume policy here," Kara said as Delilah opened the door.
"They make it themselves, so they would take it personal if someone insulted it," Delilah said softly.
"I can understand that feeling," Kara said as they walked inside. "Wow, it's like a greenhouse in here."
"Well Celadon City Gym is a Grass type gym," Delilah said. "They specialize in Grass type Pokemon."
"You keep talking about 'types'," Kara said. "What is that, some kind of magic elements for the Pokemon?"
"Yes, basically," Delilah said. "Each Pokemon have different types, some have dual typings. I'll let your teacher teach you more about it in detail."
"Wow, this really does sound like something out of a video game," Kara said in awe.
Delilah gave a smile of her own and wondered if the humans actually did make a simulation for Pokemon journeys for those who didn't want to go on a real one. She'll have to look into that some time.
They walked up to a counter where a young lady was standing. She gave a nice smile to Delilah and Kara when they approached.
"Hi there, how can I help you two today?" The young lady asked.
"I would like to enroll my daughter for beginner Pokemon class," Delilah said. "But only for a day or two at most since we have to move out soon, and I want her to learn the basics about Pokemon before we do."
"Ahh, well then it must be your lucky day, because we have exactly one opening left in the next class," The lady said as she looked over a screen on the counter in front of her.
"That's good," Kara said.
"I just have two questions for you," The lady said. "What's your name, sweet heart?"
"It's Kara Quartz," Kara answered.
"That's a nice name," The lady said. "And finally, do you like perfume?"
Kara paused for a second before she said, "If they have a nice fragrance, then yes, I do."
"Okay, and a follow up question," The lady said as she brought out a bottle of perfume. "What do you think about this?" The lady said before she sprayed it a little into the air.
Kara took a whiff of the perfume the lady sprayed before she gave a dreamy smile and said, "That smells really nice, it reminds me of my flower garden back home."
The lady smiled and said, "Well that's all my questions. If you will follow me, the class is about to start. You can even bring your mommy if you want."
Kara looked at Delilah and said, "Do you want to come with me… mommy?"
Delilah couldn't help but give a small giggle before she said, "I don't see why not."
The lady lead the two to the back, leading them outside where a beautiful young lady was sitting in front of a group of kids that appeared to be around Kara's age if not a little older.
"Miss Erika, I've brought a temporarily new student today," The lady said. "And she has good taste in perfume."
"Ahh, come on in then," The lady in the center of the room said. "I'm Erika, I'm the gym leader and teacher when I'm not having a gym battle."
Kara and Delilah walked over.
"And what is your name?" Erika asked Kara.
"It's Kara Quartz," Kara answered. "By the way, what's a Pokemon Gym and gym leader?"
The other kids looked at her.
"How can you not know? It's like Pokemon Training 101," A smart alec boy said.
"It's okay if she doesn't know," Erika said. "That's what we are here for, to teach lessons to those who want to know more about this world and about Pokemon."
Kara smiled at how non-judgemental Erika was, "Thank you."
"First, I'll go over the basics before I talk about the Pokemon Gyms," Erika said. "So go ahead and take your seat, Kara."
Kara nodded before sitting near the front so she could see and hear Erika better. Delilah decided to watch from the side, curious to see how humans would teach children about Pokemon.
"So, do you have any questions about Pokemon, Kara?" Erika asked.
"I heard there were different types of Pokemon," Kara said. "Could you tell me about those?"
"Ahh so you want to know about typings?" Erika asked. "Well there are eighteen known typings. Normal, Fire, Water, Electric, Grass, Ice, Fighting, Poison, Ground, Flying, Psychic, Bug, Rock, Ghost, Dragon, Dark, Steel, and Fairy. Fairy is the most recent typing that was discovered. Pokemon can have both single typings as well as dual typings. And these give them their strengths and weaknesses. Let's say I used a Grass type Pokemon, what type of Pokemon would you want to use against it?"
"That should be obvious," The smart alec boy said.
Kara rolled her eyes at him before thinking, she knew plants usually don't do well with fire. "A Fire type?"
"Yes, correct. That is one of the types you would use against a Grass type. The others are Ice, Poison, Flying, and Bug," Erika said. "Are there any other questions you have?"
Kara realized that the Grass type Pokemon have a lot in common with real life plants. Plants can't survive in frost, and they easily would wither from poison, bugs could eat them, and Flying, if they're anything like birds, could eat them as if they were crops.
"What about the things the Grass types are strong against?" Kara asked.
"That would be-" Erika started to say before the boy interrupted her.
"Water, Ground, and Rock. Any newbie should know that," The kid said.
"Yes…" Erika gave a small frown. "Well, if it'll help, Kara, I can give you a sheet that shows each type's strength and weaknesses to look at after class."
Kara nodded, "Thank you, that would be appreciated."
"Now, we will talk about the different species of Pokemon," Erika said. "And how they affect the nature around them."
By late afternoon, Kara had learned a lot about the Pokemon of this world. She asked for books and sheets about these fascinating creatures from Erika so she could continue studying them some more when she and Mew goes back to the Tree of Beginning.
"Thank you, Erika," Kara said as she looked at the books in her hands. "All of this is so fascinating, I'm pretty tempted to become a Pokemon Trainer myself."
"Well if you do decide to become a Pokemon Trainer then eventually you will have to earn badges," Erika said. "Hopefully I will have to honor of battling you someday. I enjoy it when one of my former students comes back to challenge me."
Kara gave a chuckle and said, "Maybe, who knows?"
Kara went over to Delilah, who had been watching, "I'm ready to go now, Delilah. I have a lot I want to read when we get back… home."
Delilah smiled before she said, "Alright, just don't stay up too late trying to read that."
With that said, Kara waved to Erika as Delilah took her inside the gym and walked into an empty room. Kara smiled excitedly as Delilah teleported them both back to the Tree of Beginning.
Satoshi-Greninja: DarkFoxKit: Mewtwo may or may not visit the Tree of Beginning. Don't count on it because he doesn't know it even exists, and Mew doesn't really trust him.
Gracie Ghost: DarkFoxKit: It will be in a few more chapters. ^^'
Fire and Ice Master 123: DarkFoxKit: I think Serena's pretty cool, I kind of wished she didn't have to do a Pokemon Contest-esque thing like May and Dawn did before her, I'm really sick of those myself, but otherwise she's cool. Probably the only girl in the anime who admitted that she has a crush on Ash. Too bad she only caught three Pokemon in the whole series, I would've liked to see what else she could've gotten before the XYZ series were over with.
PsychicEevee0103: Darkzdragon: Oh nice hat. And yeah, the time has come where the title of the story has come true. Ash is now the true Child of Mew. Good luck in your hunt.
DragonFlame1380: Darkzdragon: Hehe you and so many other people have been waiting for this moment.
Sly Fox 127: DarkFoxKit: Of course, we wouldn't write a book that wouldn't be interesting after a big climax. Heh, Legendary Pokemon are pretty fickle on what Poke Ball they want to be in.
Dracomon59: Darkzdragon: What do you mean show how Ash will hatch? Because we can't really write a whole chapter about Ash hatching.
delta4phoenix: DarkFoxKit: Heh, Sun and Moon does seem to be a pretty good anime so far, also quite different from most of the Pokemon anime, but I can't help but feel that Ash got… stupider. ^^' Well, I'm glad you enjoyed the last chapter and got a lot of feels from it. Merry Christmas to you!
223: Darkzdragon: Heh, well I'm glad you enjoyed the last chapter and I'm glad it hit you in the feels. And yes, Ash is finally a Mew. And while Ash will be a Mew, I think he won't raise as much hell since he will still have all his memories from when he was a human.
ST4RSK1MM3R: DarkFoxKit: You see, Dragon? I told you people would complain about the war being over so quickly and predictably. I've been wanting to change the title because of this. The war didn't last as long as I had originally planned, mostly because I wanted to move on from it. There wasn't much to gain to drag it out. I suppose the chapter could've ended much sooner if we didn't put in every single dialogue from the other legendaries that were there. I'm sure you would've been fine with that rather than how we rushed through this chapter as you said.
Darkzdragon: A war isn't just about the fighting, it also has to do with what happens afterwards. So the war isn't really over. I mean when World War 2 'ended', it was just the large scale battles that ended. There were still lots of small fights afterwards that changed the way people acted. So The Great War isn't done, also a tip, try to be a little more open minded about things. This book and arc are not done. So yes, I can see your side of it, but honestly and non-sensored, I don't care. You may think the war is over, but it isn't.
TobyFreshCut: Darkzdragon: Glad you thought the ending was nice. And I see Darkrai as more of the boogeyman.
thor94: DarkFoxKit: Yeah. Ash is turning into a Mew now, so you don't have to worry about him being the super lucky weakling that he was before. … Wait, virtual tree world? What?
Darkzdragon: Well they are in the mindscape, or whatever you want to call it, of the Tree of Beginning. That's how Ash could see and communicate with Aaron and Lucario.
DarkFoxKit: Being in a mindscape… is that what people call virtual?
Darkzdragon: Well a 'virtual' world is just a world that isn't part of reality.
AbyssusTheDarkNightmare: Darkzdragon: Actually, Ash isn't going to be a hybrid. He's is going to be 100% Mew.
Caboose-TMC: Darkzdragon: Heh, yup. The turning to stone scene was a bit challenging to write. Since we had all those legendaries to write for.
brianbaltazar45: DarkFoxKit: Is that your gmail address? And yup, a lot of people have been looking forward to when Ash finally becomes a Mew.
Luktopius: DarkFoxKit: Thanks!
Mistress1296: DarkFoxKit: Heh, I just didn't want to change the part where Ash tries to stop the fighting by sacrificing himself, it was a big moment for me as a kid when I first saw that. And if you're asking if Ash will still remember when he hatches, yes, he will. Mew didn't have him play all those Mew Games and gain experience as a human only for it to all reset when he was reborn as a Mew.
Giratinafan129: Darkzdragon: So I'm gonna level with you here. Fox doesn't know anything about Transformers and I'm really rusty. I don't think Fox knows much about Harry Potter either. And the whole Mareepishly thing might work in dialogue, but it isn't an actual descriptive word. Fox have you ever listened to The Living Tombstone? And do you know anything about Harry Potter?
DarkFoxKit: No, I don't. Sorry Giratinafan129, I can't answer most of your questions since I don't HAVE an answer to those. Anyways… I hope you enjoyed the chapter.
blur36: Darkzdragon: Well in the future yes, but we're gonna have a couple of sidestory chapters first.
Rosegfx: DarkFoxKit: I wasn't changing the scene where Ash turned to stone, it was a staple from my childhood. We added in the unstable genes thing as it would give more of an urgent excuse for Mew to turn Ash into a baby Mew, it was a better reason than she changing him now because he proved his worth to be a Mew. I do plan on doing the Orange Islands at some point, maybe. It depends on how long we want the story to keep going.
Guest #1: Darkzdragon: Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and glad you enjoyed the last chapter.
SilverFox-GoldWolf/MoonlitEevee: Darkzdragon: Wow, never had two reviewers posting under one review. Firstly, there will be other books, we haven't decided all of them yet, but we have a good idea for book 2. Secondly, what do you mean by met such a good friend? Are you asking how Fox and I met each other? Because if that's the case then I'll tell you. We met each other because I loved CoM and SoK. I messaged her because I saw the numerous looking for help chapters. I asked her if she still needed help and I told her what I could do. She gave me a test period where I helped out editing and contributing where I could. And then after a while I became her co-writer and friend. That sound about accurate, Fox?
DarkFoxKit: Yeah. That felt like so long ago. Who would've thought this fun little story would turn out to be something that would affect my life? X3
Darkzdragon: We said we might need to slow down, but so far we aren't slowing down. You don't have to worry. And like I said to Moonlit, there will be other books. The Great War is just the last arc of the first book.
POKEMON GUEST: DarkFoxKit: I don't plan on Ash having kids anytime soon, if any at all. ^^' And no, why would they be part Pokemon?
What's-Sanity: Darkzdragon: Heh don't worry, you'll get more. And you guys keep coming back and it keeps the tension high, that's why I use them so much.
Mitchystrick: DarkFoxKit: Yeah, that was the plan, as Dragon said it in the previous AN. We uploaded this chapter early on Christmas as a gift.
RowanEx: DarkFoxKit: Yup, everyone was pretty much crying last chapter, some by disappointment. I guess you can see this as a wrap up to the tension between Mew and the other legendary Pokemon, now it's going to be more about the aftermath once we finish with the little filler arc with the OC. The Mewtwo with Red is different, but you could say it might be the one contacting Ash. :3 You want me to what? That would be… a lot of work. ^^'
Link567: Darkzdragon: Right now, the Alola region doesn't exist and neither do any of its Pokemon. And Mary Sue isn't a single character. A Mary Sue or Gary Stu character is an extremely overpowered, 'perfect' character that kinda breaks the logic of the story. If you want an example then Saitama from One Punch Man is a Gary Stu. Now for the 'If Ash wasn't near death' question, most likely she would have. Seeing how he acted during the war, I think Mew would've seen that he was ready to become a Mew.
DarkFoxKit: I absolutely adore Mimikyu, and I kind of wished Ash did catch it in the anime, because it would be interesting seeing how Ash would try to get Pikachu and Mimikyu to get along. And if you want more explanation on 'Mary Sue' you can type it into google and look it up. And I've said it before; Arceus does not have a child. Good luck with your New Year resolution. I don't make those, the way I see it, I either do it or I don't. ^^' But if I were to make one for 2017, it's probably to get my first story published as a real book or ebook. I wonder what a Mega Mimikyu would look like? Maybe it'll have a Raichu cloth? Hey, maybe we can help each other complete the Rotom Dex. ^^' Or maybe not, you might have all the Pokemon before I do. Good luck chaining that shiny Mimikyu.
That one guy named me: DarkFoxKit: Really? I was more worried people would be disappointed by it. And admittedly, some were, but hey, you can't please everyone, right? I had the Tears of Life playing in the background while writing that part in the chapter, to make it feel authentic. I'm happy you liked the last chapter, and we hope you enjoy these next few… 'break' chapters.
penguinfan28: DarkFoxKit: Ending? Ending to a chapter, yeah, but it's not the ending of the book. There's still a lot more chapters to go, if anything that was just the end of the tension between Mew and the other legendary Pokemon, the rest will be about the aftermath, trying to rebuild broken bonds while also making a brand new start, like for Ash being a Mew.
everyman52: Darkzdragon: Ahh okay. Well thanks for explaining that, but we're still not accepting OCs.
NazhRomar: Darkzdragon: Don't worry, that wasn't the last chapter. We've still got a ways to go. Oh and no, there are a few sidestory chapters before we get to Ash hatching.
HeroCrafter: DarkFoxKit: Yup, there's a lot more chapters for this book. The Great War isn't just about the fighting part, it's also about growing from it, rebuilding new bonds, and rebuilding shattered bonds. As for the name of the next book, we're not revealing that until we're close to the end of this book.
Psychic Nature: Darkzdragon: Because the damage done to Ash was at a biological level. Turning Ash into a hybrid could've made the problem much worse that what was happening. So the only course of action was to turn him into a full Mew.
DarkFoxKit: And it was never Mew's plan to turn Ash into a hybrid in the first place. She had always planned to make him 100% Mew.
GhostofTime: DarkFoxKit: Oooh, look at that technology! We hope you're having fun, GhostofTime and Ark Haven. Oooh! Thanks for the cookies!
Mew: I'll be taking my candy bar, thanks~
Darkzdragon: Thanks for the time flowers. Also, we'll make sure Ash gets his gifts. Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy New Years, and all of that good end of the year cheer.
KaliAnn: Darkzdragon: Well it's a collision of highly concentrate psychic energy that… honestly I'm not even gonna try to BS an explanation. Glad you liked the parts with Sir Aaron and Lucario, and glad you liked the chapter. Happy Holidays to you too.
AutumnMoonlightShine4: DarkFoxKit: Thanks! … I can't tell if you were joking or not, and Ash will be a Mew after these few chapters.
Jewel moonstone: Darkzdragon: Heh thanks for the heat lamp but I don't need it, the magical energy flowing through my veins keeps me nice and warm.
Higigf: DarkFoxKit: Yes, Ash will still have his memories. Dragon, what is your favorite Pokemon?
Darkzdragon: Mew. No joke, I'm not being forced to say it or anything. My favorite Pokemon is Mew. Mainly because she can be ANY Pokemon.
megacharizat: DarkFoxKit: Ash turning to stone was something that stuck with my childhood, so I wasn't going to change that. And because it was such a big deal for me as a kid, I decided to make that the point in time Ash turns into a Mew. And don't worry, Ash is still going to compete in the Indigo League, it's just been delayed a bit.
Nova Star: DarkFoxKit: The Sir Aaron and Lucario thing came to us as an idea for them to be mentors for Ash, at least for aura. Yeah, A Fox's Dark Blood wasn't ever going to continue, so I dropped all ties with it for this story. For your question about Ash playing his own Mew Games, yes, he will. Maybe not as much or as crazy as Mew's, as he's only a baby and he knows how nightmarish it is for the one receiving the Mew Game, but he will have that playful Mew instinct. As for your second question, we haven't discussed about what will happen with Hunter J, but I do plan on using her at some point in the future.
Darkzdragon: Well the war isn't really done per say. The fighting has stopped but there is the after effects of the war that everyone has to deal with. Will Yellow every be able to fly properly again, will Ash be able to participate in the Kanto League, and other questions like that is what the rest of the story is about. And those are the after effects of the war. There will be a new enemy sometime in the future, but right now the war still goes on. As for you thanking us for responding, you don't have to thank us. We enjoy reading the reviews and responding to them. Merry Christmas, and Happy New Years.
Lover of Pokemon: Darkzdragon: Well we did the best that we could, sorry we couldn't live up to your expectations.
Arathix2002: DarkFoxKit: It's only been one week. ^^' Unless you meant Ash getting turned into a Mew, then yes, it has been quite the long wait, huh?
Daegrors: DarkFoxKit: I get the meme, but we're not using it here, and it's nonsense.
Guest #2: Mew: Thank you. I appreciate the compliment.
Ash2Cool4School: Darkzdragon: Then reality would have shattered and the story would have ended. And had reality broken apart, Mew wouldn't have been able to do anything.
DarkFoxKit: But you're free to write that darker AU if you want. ^^'
Slaezzior: DarkFoxKit: Okay, we're going to answer the review you gave us last time too, since you weren't able to post it before the cut off time. Yes, we weren't kidding, hence the warning. I think younger kids could possibly take it, but eh, we didn't want to take our chances. The science stuff? Yeah, although it is pretty easy to see why the Latis need their wings to keep their stability as their bodies were designed to work like that. Heh, Zach is an interesting character, and we hope to develop him more soon. And yes, Ash turning into stone was something I was never going to change.
Darkzdragon: Yeah, Celeste was the 'Mysterious Lady' as everyone had decided to call her. Kinda surprised people didn't figure it out sooner. As for it feeling a little rushed, we tried our best but writing for 20 some characters was kinda hard since we had to remember how each of them would react and their personalities. Also as I said a lot, the war isn't over. Just because the fighting on New Island is done, doesn't mean there aren't challenges to face going forwards. And even if he hadn't needed it to save his life, I still think Ash would've been turned into a full Mew. Mew most likely would've seen that he was ready due to his maturity and how he took charge during the war.
Guest/Mia: DarkFoxKit: Hi Mia. Uh… what does Dustin and Jayden's age have to do with anything? And it's up to them if they want to tell you their age. I haven't spoken to Jayden in a few years, so I couldn't tell you even if I wanted to. And thanks.
TrackTiger101: Darkzdragon: Hehe, glad you liked it. Yes, Ash will finally be a Mew, and yes he will be Shiny. Fox, what do you think? Should we have Yellow call Ash 'Blue'?
DarkFoxKit: Um… well, she calls Blue 'Green' because she sees him as her brother. I doubt Yellow would call Ash 'Blue', but who knows, maybe she would.
Darkzdragon: I really want to, just to mess with Blue a bit. And yeah, the wall between former enemy and friend is a thin one that I really like to exploit. Hopefully Ash will befriend all of the Hybrids he fought against during the tournament and the war. Don't worry, Ash is safe. Mew made sure of that. Also… are you shipping Fox and I?
blazessnooze: DarkFoxKit: Heh, yeah, unexpecting things does help make a good story. I'm glad that you like how much the story flows well with the TV series and the movie. Ah, Pokemon's first movie, a classic. I still remember when I first saw it in theaters as a kid.
AShinyBlueMew: Darkzdragon: Well first off, the war isn't really over, just the fighting is. Secondly, we aren't doing any ships at this time. Thirdly, please don't get me any more gooey, I already took care of it. Thanks for the ideas though.
Lucha knight: DarkFoxKit: Well, I'm glad you're enjoying the story. Yeah, I know how a lot of action can make people expect more action, I guess that's why some anime that started off as an adventure type transforms into battle and fighting action pack stuff *cough cough* Dragon Ball Z *cough cough*. But be warned, the next few chapters aren't going to be all that action packed. ^^'
secret: Darkzdragon: Yup, it finally happened. Rejoice! There shall be a new Pokemon Prince. I'm sure Fox enjoys that you like her fanfics, and I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. By the way, you know that alley just leads to a dead end… right?
wyvern97: DarkFoxKit: Chapters for this current one. The book isn't over yet, there's still a lot more left to do. Ash will still go to the Indigo League, we're not ending this book until he does.
Dusk the Cybertronian Fox: DarkFoxKit: Wow, everyone just loves to see me in a sweater. Is it because I'm a small fox? Is it because I resemble a little dog? … They do look cute in those sweaters though. And Mew tortured me far longer than she had even known Darkzdragon.
Darkzdragon: Again, thanks for the Goo-Gone. Now I don't have to worry about becoming a Goodra-esque type being.
Guest #3: Darkzdragon: What do you mean by Cana?
Lady Rin: DarkFoxKit: What? Sir Aaron's son? We can make him a direct descendent, but not his son since Sir Aaron's been long dead way before Ash and his biological mother was even born. Heh, we've already wrote out Ash's days as a Mew, and it would be too tedious to go back and change it, so no, we will not be having Ash forgetting anything at all. But if it helps, he will have that playful Mew nature.
dragonrider101: Darkzdragon: Yes, we were always planning on using it again. We weren't just gonna one off it. Also, ginger ale really helps. And wow… that might be a little bit of a mature joke. And yeah, you're probably reading between the lines. Also yeah, I don't want to take a goo bath for as long as I can.
Donyfire fan: DarkFoxKit: No, the war isn't over. The fighting is done, but then there's the aftermath, and having to rebuild was was broken during the war, like Yellow's wing, and Mew's relationship with her now former enemies. Well, I have to say I'm not the biggest fan of the Tapu's, but again the only one I've really seen so far is Tapu Koko and it's probably not the best example as it was quite the troublemaker in the first few episodes of Sun and Moon's anime. Yes, expect more chapters, expect a lot more chapters.
PokeFanficReaderB: Darkzdragon: Lol… how many more reviews have 'finally' or 'yes! It happened' or things like that. As for the cliffhangers, Fox isn't to blame. It's all me.
XYZ: DarkFoxKit: No, Mew will not be bringing all of Ash's Pokemon into the Tree, because it would take a lot for us to have to write for every single one of them, and it would slow down the story drastically, not to mention how much it would make me lose a lot of motivation to keep going if we have to drag it out like that.
ChildOfAnUmbreon: Darkzdragon: My least favorite Legendary? I would have to say… Arceus. The idea that he is the God of Pokemon is ridiculous. Mew made all Pokemon including Arceus, but supposedly Arceus is the God? Yeah… I call bull.
DarkFoxKit: Careful Dragon, if you say it like that, people are going to constantly remind you the legend of Arceus and how he came to be before Mew and all that crap. I should know, they did that to me before.
Darkzdragon: Yeah, well to them I'll say this. Bite me. Arceus is not the God of Pokemon. Arceus isn't the creator. That's my opinion, if you don't like it, you can ignore me.
DarkFoxKit: Heh, seems someone is riled up. And if you want to know my least favorite legendary Pokemon… hmm… well, I'm not sure. I'm usually either indifferent or I really like a certain legendary Pokemon. I mean I don't like Arceus because for one, the movie Arceus and the Jewel of Life made him look… meh. And another, I didn't like how Arceus pretty much took Mew's spot as the first Pokemon and became the god of Pokemon. But other than that, I'm usually indifferent to it. But my least favorite legendary Pokemon designwise is definitely the Regis, all of them. I just don't like the robotic, lifeless and faceless design they have. They don't feel like Pokemon, they feel more like robots that doesn't belong in the Pokemon world. In fact, if they weren't canon to the Tree of Beginning, I wouldn't have used them as the guardians of the Tree of Beginning.
xbluenwhitex: Darkzdragon: Really? You didn't like this. Alright, you're entitled to your opinion. And the fighting ended because Celeste had no more reason to continue the fight. She got what she needed and none of the other legendaries were gonna mess with a distraught Mew. Would you mess with a mother when she is caring for her hurt child? Yeah, they have a good enough sense of self preservation to not mess with Mew.
DarkFoxKit Kit: DarkFoxKit: Sir Aaron isn't stuck, he chose to stay there of his own free will. And… why are you using my name? Are you saying you're my kit or something? Dragon, is this a conspiracy or a time traveler?
Darkzdragon: Well technically Sir Aaron can't leave, he is fused with it and so is Lucario. And no, this is probably someone who wishes they could be your kit.
Ember-Fever: DarkFoxKit: Yeah, hard to believe, huh? 5 years? It's really been that long? O.O' Wow, I feel… old. And we will have a new main antagonist in the next book, but this book isn't over yet, and there's no more antagonist, it's more about recovering from the scars of the war and starting over with a new beginning. And no, this is more like in the middle of the Great War story. Yes, Ash will travel to different regions later. You didn't think this was all going to be in the Kanto region, did you?
VulpixEevee: Darkzdragon: Hope you can remember your password or at least recover it. Firstly I'm gonna address the Eevee in Sun and Moon question. I personally don't remember. And secondly, we didn't want the fighting to drag on, and I swear if anyone points out the 'drag on dragon' pun, I'm gonna roast them. *Sighs* Fox, do you know where to find an Eevee in Sun and Moon? I forgot.
DarkFoxKit: It was on that route before that town just before the daycare… you might want to look it up. But you can get an Eevee's egg at the daycare on the second island, so that would be a free Eevee there.
Darkzdragon: Well those are all the reviews we had this time. I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter and their Christmas or holidays. Anything you want to say before we sign off, Fox?
DarkFoxKit: Yup. We hope you guys enjoyed this gift we gave you guys, please don't complain too much about the OC, she's, like Dragon said, from a project we're doing and we just want to see how well she's received here. Anyways, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and have a happy New Year!
Darkzdragon: Now, time for me to go get some cake, you want some Fox? I have a banana cake and chocolate cake.
DarkFoxKit: Yes! I would love some! You have any vanilla buttercream cake?
Darkzdragon: Yeah, I do. Come on, I'll get you a slice. See you all later, we're gonna go have cake. *Dragon walks over to the camera and turns it off.*
