Yes, I know, everyone here hates my stories.

I don't know if this is stupid or just cliché. I KNOW I can't spell pokemon names correctly.

Dad? Why did Mom and Big Sister go away? Why won't you tell me?

Aunt Maganium says she'll be with you instead now that Mom's gone. But I don't want a new mom! I want my Mom! No one is mom but Mom! Why does Aunt Maganium think she can suddenly just become mom?! Besides, I know Dad doesn't like her that way, so why does she keep saying it? Does saying it over and over somehow make it come true? I hope she stops saying it before that happens.

Did I do something wrong? Did they leave because of me? Uncle Pikachu says I'm being foolish. That Mom leaving had nothing to do with me. But why did Big Sister have to go away too? Don't they like us anymore? Don't they like me anymore? Did Big Sister not like having a little brother? Don't they know how much it hurts that they're not here? Is Big Sister hurting too? Then wouldn't she be here? Red Thing says Big Sister is a happiness pocket monster, that she's most healthy when she's most happy. Does that mean she's more happy where she is? Away from me?

At first I thought that Mom and Big Sister were on a trip. That they would be back soon. So I wasn't worried. But days past. Then weeks. Then more time than I could count. And they still haven't come back. At first Uncle Pikachu said not to worry, he says Uncle Brock went away for a long time before I was born, but he came back. Uncle Pikachu hasn't said that in a long time. Nor does he act like he ever said it.

I keep going through why Mom isn't here anymore again and again inside my New Egg. The first thing Dad gave me was my New Egg. I once asked Big Sister why she didn't have a New Egg like everyone else, she said Mom never gave her one because Big Sister was still wearing her old one. I always thought it was silly that Big Sister would be my big sister but still wear her egg shell. She said once she grew up she wouldn't need her old shell anymore. I wonder if she's gone through The Light yet and grown up, like when Aunt Bayleaf became Aunt Maganium, and gotten her New Egg at last. I wonder if I'll ever know.

Aunt Maganium says I'll be able to handle my feelings better once I go through The Light, then it won't be so bad. But does that mean I'll care less for Mom and Big Sister? Or does that mean they think I'll be strong enough to know what happened? What did happen?

I try to ask Dad where they've gone. But he won't tell me.
I ask Uncle Pikachu, but he would tell me.
I ask Aunt Maganium, and she won't tell me.
Why won't anyone tell me? Is it that bad?
Why does everyone keep saying when you're older?'

Dad says only that it's for the best, and Mom has to follow her own dream and we should be happy for her and Big Sister. But is he saying that to me? Or himself?

I was just thinking on how Misty is leaving the show, and combined it with the fact that Togepi imprinted on Misty because Misty was the first thing Togepi saw. And I thought, the first thing Phanpy saw was Ash, and how Ash and Misty seperating might look from the kids' point of view.
