Danny was lying on his back in the grass, watching five of his Pokémon having a fun time, the last one, Charmander, was lying next to him.

"So, what do you think of this journey so far?" Danny asked. Charmander happily smiled, counting as a 'I like it'.

"Great, I like it too." Danny looked up, there was no cloud in the sky, just the sun.

"You know Charmander, I want to tell you a story." Danny said, The Fire Lizard looked at his trainer.

"It may sound strange, but I haven't always lived in this Pokémon World." Danny started. "Actually, from all that I know, the day I met you was my first day in this world. Before that, I lived in a world without Pokémon."

Charmander looked at Danny, not sure if he should react or not. He decided not to. Not yet.

"In that world, Pokémon like you are toys, games and series, but not real, in there, it is all one big fake." Danny looked at his starter. "I sure am glad I don't live in that world anymore." He patted Charmander on his head, and the last one laughed.

"You know, it is weird, my parents, Richard. Everyone lived in the earlier world, except you and the other Pokémon, and prof. Oak, the gym leaders, Janine, Neither one of them lives in the normal world, only the people I already knew before going on this journey where real life." Danny sighed, and looked back up.

"I still haven't figured out of this is a dream, but all of this, it is too long for a dream. And the weirdest part, I dream every night, so that would mean I dream in my dream. Maybe this all is a different dimension, I don't know. Maybe someday I can talk to Richard about it, it just doesn't feel right to talk about it with him now. You must think I'm crazy, don't you?" Danny laughed, but Charmander shook his head.

"You and the others, Beedrill, Abra, Bellsprout, Krabby and Pidgey, are the best things that ever happened to me, I appreciate you guys being around me." Charmander cuddled against Danny.

"Picking you was the best decision of my life, all of the others, it was pure coincidence that we met, but you. I had the choice between you, Squirtle and Bulbasaur, and I made the right call."

A small cloud went in front of the sun, and it started to cool down immediately.

"What do you think? Are we going to win the league?" Charmander nodded in full believe. "Yeah, maybe."

The others were running (Abra, Bellsprout), flying (Beedrill, Pidgey) or crawling (Krabby) towards Danny.

"Hi you guys, having a good time?" They all nodded. "That's great, where enjoying the sun." Danny said.

Richard and Janine where watching their friend from a distance.

"He is really good with his Pokémon." Janine said. "I know, he always was a big fan of Pokémon, since we were both little, he always talked about going on a journey."

"Richard, I have the feeling Danny has a secret." Janine started. "Now, I don't mind it, but it looks like he is doubting to tell you." Richard looked at Janine. "How do you mean?"

"I don't know, it just looks like he isn't sure if he wants to tell you something, I have no idea what, but it looks like it." Janine said.

Richard sighed. "You think so? Danny and I always told each other everything, if we were in love, if one of us got bullied, everything."

"How long do you know Danny?" "Since we were like 4/5 years old. We live in the same town, so changes are you get to meet each other fairly quickly. It clicked first instance, and we always were together. That's why we were both happy to leave on a journey together."

Janine smiled. "It is good to have a best friend." She kneeled down, and cuddled with her Venonat, who was standing right below her. "Right Venonat?" Venonat happily squeaked.

Richard looked down at Janine and Venonat, and then back to Danny.

"Yeah, you are right, it is good to have a best friend."

Congratulations, we reached a 1000 views, this is a little something I wrote to celebrate, it is a lot of feelings, but it has some small points in it. Firstly, Danny confesses everything to Charmander, and Janine tells Richard about the secret Danny is having. Of course, this is the fact that he isn't from the Pokémon World himself. I want to thank everybody who is visiting my story, huge thanks to everyone that follows, favorites, comments, thank you. I really appreciate all of you.
