Chapter 29: Luana's Amnesia: Part Two

"Luana? You can't sleep either?" I whispered as I moved a little closer.

"Kellyn? You're awake? No, I couldn't get to sleep, I've been in bed for quite a while just trying to find a relaxing position to sleep in. I have an idea though, is…is it okay if I tell you what it is?" Luana said.

"An idea? If it's coming from you, I know it has to be a well thought out one, go ahead!" I said as Luana started to blush.

"I…I was hoping w-we could hold hands and nuzzle together, i-it's just a suggestion s-so you don't have to!" Luana said as she started nervously playing with her thumbs.

I gave her a smile as I got out of my hospital bed and took the bed Sven put together, I quickly gave my mom a kiss on the cheek as I fixed her blanket and headed back to where Luana was and lied down right next to her, intertwining my hand with hers as she shivered slightly.

"I knew your idea was great, I'd love to hold hands with you, hopefully you'll be able to get a good night's sleep now!" I said as I gave Luana a hug, which only made her tremble more.

"S-sorry about the trembling, I just feel so…at ease when I'm around you, even with this amnesia, I feel safe around everyone…but I feel extremely safe and very relaxed around you especially. I know I'll be able to get a good rest with you next to me!" Luana said as she moved her head closer to mine while I did the same.

"No need to be sorry, I'm happy being around you too! It would be great if your memories returned soon, I was telling everyone today how I couldn't even imagine how frustrating it must be to not remember something, but don't you worry Luana, I'll always stay by your side." I said as Luana happily looked at me.

"It really can get a bit frustrating sometimes, especially because it would make me bad if I couldn't remember something about you, my friends, our adventures as Top Rangers or my family. I'm curious though, what if you had to remind me all the time about who I am, or who you are?" Luana said.

"If I had to remind you about either of our names or anything else that you can't remember, then I wouldn't mind because of how much I care. I can definitely see how it could stress someone out, but I love being around you and I would still enjoy spending the rest of my life with you, whether you had amnesia or not, I would gladly do so if it made you happy." I said as Luana gave me a big hug.

"T-that's the sweetest thing I've ever heard, thank you Kellyn. I feel the same about you, even if you had amnesia and couldn't remember anything, I would love to be around you regardless!" Luana said as she hugged me closer to her.

"You're…you're welcome Luana. Let's head to sleep, I'll be right here with you, don't you worry. Good night Luana." I said.

"Sounds like a good idea to me, good night Kellyn." Luana said as we got closer to each other.

Eventually, I felt myself drift off to sleep as I became ecstatic with Luana being close to me. When I woke up in the morning, I noticed that Luana was slowly waking up while my mom's bed was empty, so I quickly rubbed my eyes and tried to move until I realized that Luana had her grip on me.

"Good morning Luana, did you sleep good? I know I did, my headache's all gone and it's breakfast time! If you feel hungry, I can get you something to eat if you'd like!" I said as Luana released her grip on me.

I quickly got off of my bed and headed over to Luana's side, looking into her eyes, even though they were once filled with confusion when she was first diagnosed with amnesia, I had to smile as I noticed that it was replaced with her usual joy as she happily looked up at me.

"Good morning Kellyn, I definitely did have a good rest. I actually do feel really hungry, let's get some food!" Luana said as she tried getting up, though her legs started to wobble as I held her in my arms, worried that she might fall.

"Don't worry Luana, you're not falling when I'm around. Are you okay?" I said.

"T-thanks Kellyn, sorry about that! I think I'll be able to walk now, I'll still keep my arm wrapped around your neck just in case I'm not able to walk as well as I thought. Also, where's your mom? I noticed she wasn't here when I woke up this morning, maybe she had to help some other patients?" Luana said as she put her arm around my neck.

"No need to be sorry Luana, I'm always here for you! As for where my mother could be, I think she could be talking with Chairperson Erma or Sven and Wendy about your condition. I can call Sven or Wendy and see if she's with them." I said as I called Wendy, thankfully, she picked up after a few rings.

"Hi Kellyn, good morning! I hope you and Luana are okay, we're downstairs in our room since we didn't wasn't to disturb you or Luana as you two got close to each other. Chairperson Erma was talking with your mother before she had to leave quickly, some Pokémon were critically injured because of Team Dim Sun attacking the small cave on Nabiki beach. Some Rangers were able to apprehend them, but they knew nothing of any bases according to their knowledge. Aside from that, are you guys heading to the cafeteria to get some breakfast? We're pretty hungry!" Wendy said.

"Hello Wendy, good morning to you as well, Luana and I are doing great, I hope the same goes for Sven and yourself! We were wondering where my mom was, she'll be able to get those Pokémon healed up quickly! I just hope she doesn't stress herself out too much. We'll definitely be getting some breakfast, we'll wait for you guys, see you soon!" I said as I hanged up the Styler while Luana and I both headed into the cafeteria.

"Wow, the sun really makes this room look nice during the day, I can only imagine how pretty this room is at night!" Luana said as she looked at me, her eyes sparkling.

"I agree, when it's especially bright out like today, the cafeteria and some of the other rooms in the Ranger Union feel somewhat relaxing. I hope you don't mind waiting for Sven or Wendy, they're very prompt so even though we won't actually be waiting long, I still feel bad because I know you're hungry." I said.

"I don't mind at all, I'm here with you so even if they took an hour to come here, that's okay with me!" Luana said with a slight blush on her face.

"Thank you Luana, that's very sweet of you to say, it looks like Wendy and Sven are here already, hi guys!" I said as they both entered.

"Hello Kellyn, hi Luana, good morning! Sorry we took so long, let's get some breakfast!" Sven said as Luana and I got up and headed over to Sven and Wendy, collecting our trays and plates as usual.

"You guys didn't take long at all! How are Marcus and Linda doing? They left after I collapsed so they can do some Operator work, are they alright?" I said as I smiled happily.

"Marcus and Linda are doing good, they felt horrible that they weren't able to help you out, Professor Hastings told us the reason they left was because of some training session which required all Operators to attend." Wendy said.

"That's okay, I'm glad they're alright!" I said.

I noticed Luana taking her breakfast which consisted of seven pancakes, two Sitrus berries and a cup of Miltank milk, I also got the same breakfast as we both headed back down to our seats, while Wendy and Sven joined us shortly afterwards, with their breakfast consisting of three pancakes and an Oran berry each as they stared wide eyed at us, specifically at Luana's plate since she still had her appetite.

"Wait a minute…I remember! Every time Sven and Wendy would get breakfast with us, their eyes would always open up wide because they would be so stunned with how much food we ate compared to them!" Luana said as Wendy and Sven's eyes widened even more while I was overjoyed that Luana remembered something and I gave her a big hug as she started her steps to recovery.

"Wow, Luana, that's awesome!" Wendy said.

"If you can remember what happened before the amnesia, that's extremely amazing! Did you remember anything noteworthy when my mother was talking to you as she told you my name?" I said as I waited to Luana's response, while I ate a few pancakes.

"I do! I remember when I went to your house to eat dinner with everyone and I remember talking with your parents and sister and how happy I was to be there after your mom helped me relax." Luana said.

"Luana, since you're able to remember the event once you recollect it…that means you could regain your memory in no time with our help!" I said as we all started to celebrate.

"I'm so glad! I really appreciate how nice you guys have been to me, I thought all of you would have been mad at me not being able to remember any of you!" Luana said as she and I finished our breakfast.

"Oh no worries Luana, we were very concerned when you weren't able to remember anything about yourself or the adventures you've had with us. We wouldn't be mad with you! Did your parents come see you or call so they know you're alright?" Wendy said as Luana started to get fidgety.

"No, my parents haven't visited me at all, I didn't get any calls from them either, even Mrs. Hajime wasn't able to get in touch with them when I told her where they worked. Maybe they just have more important things to do at work and forgot about me. I know my brother would call me when he's able to, but our parents just don't like us." Luana said as I started to comfort her by stroking her hair, which made her relax.

"I'm very sorry Luana, I didn't mean to upset you, I…I'm sorry that your parents are like that towards you. I'm sure that your brother didn't forget about you, you're an awesome person. If your family doesn't at least call you and see how you're doing, especially when you are trying to recover from a head injury, then that's just horrible for them to do." Wendy said as Luana smiled.

-Luana's POV-

"No need to be sorry, my parents have always been like that, though they still mean well. As for my brother, I know work is hectic for him since he travels all over Almia. I'd rather get a call from him than my parents." I said.

"I understand what you mean, it's better to have family call you when you know that they'll be relieved to know you're okay rather than family who couldn't care less. Right?" Kellyn said.

"That's right, you guys understand me so well. On a more positive note, it looks like Sven over here is struggling to finish his pancakes!" I said.

"I-I am not having issues eating these pancakes! It's just that they're so good that I want to take my time enjoying them." Sven said as Wendy playfully rolled her eyes.

"Are you sure you're not just full, Sven? I'm a slow eater and I finished my breakfast before you!" Wendy said as we all laughed while Sven finished his last pancake.

Afterwards, we all put our plates and trays back as we exited the cafeteria, walking down the hallway towards the escalator while Sven started to joke about his eating habits.

"Woohoo! I did it, that's another breakfast eaten by Sven, part of the Flying Ranger duo!" Sven said.

"Fly…Flying Ranger! I remember Wendy calling herself the Flying Ranger while Kellyn and I were heading to the Ranger School! Guys, this is amazing, when I remember things, whether it's something felt or heard, the broken pieces in my mind just reconnect them back and it's like I never lost the memory!" I said as I hugged Kellyn tightly, with there being a noticeable blush on his face.

"T-that's wonderful Luana, I'm so happy you're regaining your memory!" Kellyn said as I giggled, with him lifting me up.

I was enjoying the hug and tried to give Kellyn a hug back until I realized that I couldn't do so, confused, I managed to lift my head from Kellyn's grip as I saw that he somehow managed to hug Sven and Wendy as well as they were on either side of me.

I was surprised, mainly because of how easily Kellyn was able to lift all of us up as if we weighed as much as a sheet of paper. After hugging all of us, Kellyn put us down as he had a blush on his face, while Sven and Wendy were very surprised, evident on their faces.

"That was amazing, though next time you hug me like that, can you please make sure it's just you and me? I think Sven and Wendy's eyebrows are about to reach the ceiling!" I said as Kellyn chuckled.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure next time it's just the two of us." Kellyn said as he winked, which made me blush while Wendy giggled.

"Wendy and I keep forgetting how strong the two of you are, especially you, Kellyn. That was rather impressive, is anyone else in your family strong like you?" Sven said.

"Thanks Sven, no one else in the family is strong like me, but I still love them the same!" Kellyn said as we headed down to the first floor.

"I think that's sweet how you love them whether their strong or not, however, I will say that your strength is awesome! We're taking you to the first floor so you can head to the Pokémon Training Room, where you and Luana's Pokémon are being treated well." Wendy said as we entered the Pokémon Training Room, with what I assumed was our Pokémon eagerly greeting us.

Pachirisu and Buneary started hopping around Kellyn and Raichu was playing with Wendy and Sven while I gave Vulpix a pat on the head. Kellyn glanced at the counter and noticed that no one was there, Kellyn knocked on the counter and after a few seconds, I saw a man with brown hair and brown eyes peek out from the back room as he walked over to the counter.

"Hi Kellyn, if I may ask, do any of you guys have a Sandshrew with you?" Ben said.

"Hello Ben, I was just about to say how strange this was since you or Betty are usually here, I wondered where you guys went. Also, a Sandshrew, er…how did you know that? We do in fact have a Sandshrew in our room upstairs. Why?" Kellyn said.

"Linda saw me earlier and mentioned who the Pokémon belonged to, I figured it belonged to one of you guys. Linda actually passed by the hospital room to see how Luana was doing only a few minutes ago, she didn't see anyone inside, but she noticed a little Sandshrew peacefully resting and she said it was so adorable. Linda will be coming in here in a minute since she would like to have a Pokémon to keep her company if you and Luana are okay with that." Ben said.

"That makes sense, Sandshrew would be a great Pokémon for Linda, let me ask Luana what she thinks." Kellyn said as I motioned for me to come over.

"Hi Kellyn, hello Ben! Do one of you need something?" I said as I waved to Ben while Ben returned the wave.
"Hello Luana, Ben was explaining to me that Linda saw our Sandshrew in the hospital room and fell in love with it. What do you think, would giving Linda our Sandshrew be a good idea? She would need a Pokémon or a person to keep her company since she tends to get lonely." Kellyn said as I smiled.

"I think that would be a good choice, let me go get Sandshrew, he sounds like he'll love to be around people!" I said as she ran upstairs.

At first I was very confused as to where to go, but after asking the receptionist where our room was, I thanked her and headed up there, finding Sandshrew playing with one of the chairs. I gently picked up Sandshrew and headed out of the room, after I did so, I noticed someone in a green and white uniform walking towards me as she waved to me which prompted me to wave back to her.

"Ah, hello there, are you…Linda? Kellyn and a guy named Ben told me that we should go to the Pokémon Training Room, since you said to Ben that you wanted this Sandshrew. Are you free to go now?" I said.

"Hi Luana! I'm ready to go now, lead the way!" Linda said.

"Sounds good, let's go!" I said as I started jogging, heading back downstairs into the Pokémon Training Room and opened the door.

"You're a fast one Luana! By the way Ben, is Betty back from visiting her family?" Kellyn said right as Betty popped out from the back room.

"Hi Kellyn, it's nice to see you, I had a lot of fun spending time with my family! Are you here to pick up your Pokémon that Sven and Wendy are playing with? We heard Luana got amnesia, we're concerned about her." Betty said.

"Not today, I wanted to pay them a visit as well as see how you guys are doing. I'm relieved that you guys heard about how Luana lost her memory, it breaks my heart whenever anyone explains it to others. We've been trying to help her out but I'm really sad about the entire thing, I should have prevented that rock from hitting her. Even though she's regaining her memories quickly, I feel horrible that she's still struggling to remember things." Kellyn said as I wrapped my arm around his shoulder, as he turned to me, he smiled and he saw that it was me holding Sandshrew while I grinned back at him.

"Aw Kellyn, you're so sweet! You guys are doing a lot to help me out but I know I'll be able to recover from this amnesia, you shouldn't feel horrible or worry! Besides, if that rock hit you, you could have gotten amnesia as well, or worse. In fact, if that rock hit my head higher or lower, who knows what could have happened? All I know is that you're with me and that's what matters to me." I said as I hugged Kellyn while Sandshrew got gently squeezed.

"Wait up Luana! I can barely catch up!" Linda said as she entered the room, panting for breath.

"Oh! I'm so sorry about that Linda, I was so excited to get back that I couldn't help but run down here!" I said.

"Luana's pretty fast, I'm pretty sure she could even out speed Wendy's Staraptor!" Sven said as we all chuckled.

"Luana might be fast, but my Staraptor is definitely faster! However…if Kellyn was in danger, Luana would probably out speed any Pokémon so that she can get him to safety." Wendy said.

"I don't think I could out speed any Pokémon, but I do agree that if Kellyn was in danger, I would do whatever it takes to make sure he's okay." I said as I handed over Sandshrew to Linda.

"Sandshrew, Linda needs a reliable and friendly Pokémon since she's by herself most days whenever Marcus or Murph isn't around. Can you make sure to keep her company when she's alone?" Kellyn said as Sandshrew looked over at Linda for a moment, before happily jumping into her arms as we all cheered.

"Thank you Sandshrew, I'll make sure to give you lots of love! Thank you Luana and Kellyn! I'll take great care of Sandshrew, is there anything in particular that you guys need from me? I know that Sven and Wendy are going to take me somewhere today, hopefully it's another adventure but without Team Dim Sun involved!" Linda said happily as she held Sandshrew in her arms.

"No worries Linda, we know you'll take good care of Sandshrew! There's nothing else that we need from you, but we hope that you guys all have fun wherever you guys are going today! Are you guys heading out now, or later?" Kellyn said.

"We'll be heading out now, we've got some quests to do and we'll be taking Linda to a secret spot where she can relax and enjoy herself! If you guys need anything, don't hesitate to call us! Bye!" Sven said as they waved to us while we did the same.

After Sven, Wendy and Linda left, I figured I would try to do something to jog my memory back, Kellyn decided to show me our Pokémon to see if I remembered anything in particular about them while Ben and Betty observed closely.

"Luana, this is Pachirisu, Buneary, Vulpix and Raichu, they're our Partner Pokémon! If you can, try to remember where we first got them." Kellyn said sweetly as I looked at each Pokémon, while they worriedly stared at me.

I picked up Pachirisu and Buneary with a concentrated look on my face and after looking intently at our Partner Pokémon for about a minute or so, I smiled happily as I squeezed the two Pokémon and gently put them down.

"I…I remember! They were given to us by Barlow and we caught Pachirisu and Buneary inside the Ranger Base. I was so overjoyed catching them and they started hopping up and down!" I said as I then picked up Raichu and Vulpix.

"Wonderful job Luana, since you know where we got Pachirisu and Buneary, do you also know where we got Raichu and Vulpix?" Kellyn said as I started to observe the other two Pokémon, after a few minutes of looking at the two, my head felt like it nearly hit the ceiling as I gave Kellyn a big hug.

"I remember where we got these two Pokémon as well! It was in Almia Castle, Vulpix needed a Sitrus berry from an injury it got, while Raichu was by a staircase wandering around!" I said as we all cheered.

"That's right! Luana, you were able to remember how we met our Pokémon! I'm so happy for you!" Kellyn said as he hugged me while our Pokémon jumped for joy.

"Yay Luana! With Kellyn's help, you'll be able to remember things easily!" Ben said.

"Soon it'll be like you've never lost your memory!" Betty said.

"Thanks guys, I'm glad I have Kellyn and my friends by my side for support. We'll be heading out now, bye Ben, bye Betty! Bye guys, make sure to not give Ben or Betty too much work!" I said with a chuckle as I hugged each of our Partner Pokémon while Kellyn patted them on the head.

"Get some rest guys, you all work hard. Bye Ben, bye Betty it was nice to see all of you!" Kellyn said as we waved and left the Pokémon Training Room.

"That was fun, seeing those adorable Pokémon made me happy and Ben and Betty are nice just like I remember them. Where are we going to go next?" I said as Kellyn grew fidgety.

"W-where to go next? Well..I.." Kellyn said as he increasingly looked anxious.

"What's wrong Kellyn? Is something bothering you?" I said.

"W-well, I was hoping we could go to this room here, before you got the amnesia, you and I…shared it together. But i-if you don't want to go in t-then that's alright!" Kellyn said nervously.

"Ah, so that's what you were wondering about! Kellyn, sharing a room with you sounds like fun, I'll definitely be more than happy to go there with you!" I said as Kellyn gently grabbed my hand and started walking towards the room, with Kellyn opening the door and both of us entering.

'Aw Kellyn, even when I've lost my memory, you're just as loving and dependable as ever, that's why I'll always love you.' I thought to myself as I flicked on the light switch.

My eyes lit up when I saw our room and I immediately went over to the dresser, I was thinking rather intently as I giggled slightly.

"What did you remember about the dresser?" Kellyn said as I turned to face him.

"We bought this the other day at that marketplace, I specifically remember how much I loved the Mudkip and Eevee on front. I thought it was such an adorable dresser! I'm surprised by how quickly I'm remembering things, but it makes me happy that you're the one helping me." I said as I gave Kellyn a hug.

"I'm so glad you're remembering things! Luana, I actually have a present for you since you've been doing so great, close your eyes please." Kellyn said as I did so.

"This…this seems familiar…" I said as I felt Kellyn gave me a kiss on the lips, I then kissed him back, as I put my arms around him while Kellyn did the same.

"Kellyn…I remember everything that happened before the amnesia, all the times we got injured and nearly died, all the people we met and everywhere we've been. It's…it's like I never even had amnesia to begin with and it's all thanks to you!" I said as Kellyn hugged me, picking me up as he twirled me around the room, eventually putting me down after a few minutes of his adorable laughing.

"I figured that if you're able to remember things based on something someone says or even something you feel, such as when you held our Pokémon, perhaps kissing you on your lips would work. I'm so glad that it did, you're back Luana! Do you want to tell everyone, or do you want to keep it as a surprise?" Kellyn said.

"I'm so happy I'm able to remember everything, your kisses are really wonderful! As for telling anyone about my recovery, I think we could tell Chairperson Erma, after all, we do need to replace your jacket since the blood stained it. Let's hold off on Sven, Wendy or Linda knowing since we would want Linda to spend some time with them, you know? We can tell them once we head back here tonight, plus we can play a prank on them!" I said as I smiled sweetly at Kellyn.
