A/N: And now, for chapter two! This is going to be one of those feel-good chapters that I hope will stick to you and make you fell all warm and fuzzy. Enjoy!
Mewtwo awoke in the morning to feel the morning dew on his face. He stood up and walked over to a nearby pond. He waded into the water until he was completely submerged. He did this in vain of purging his soul of what he had done. The Goldeen swam about him in flurries of gold and white and he marveled at their beauty. He watched as one of them swam up to a fisherman's lure. She was suddenly caught and she struggled to get free. But the more she struggled, the less of a chance there was for her to escape. But she suddenly stopped struggling and floated there. The hook released from her mouth and she swam away freely.

Mewtwo let himself rise to the surface of the pond for a breath of air. His head peeked over the surface as he looked around. He saw many fishermen sitting on the opposite end of the pond with their rods tightly gripped in their hands. He spied a little girl playing on the nearby bank as her father waited for a bite. She suddenly spotted Mewtwo and pointed her finger at his head.

"Daddy, look over there! It's a Pokemon!" she squealed with delight. She stood there and watched Mewtwo bob up and down with the current. A small smile of curiosity spread across her face as she watched Mewtwo.

"Look at that! That will make me a fine catch on the market!" he bellowed with delight. "Maybe my homemade Lure Ball will catch that bugger!" he said groping in his pockets.

"No daddy! He looks happy just where he is!" she said tugging at her father's sleeve. "Besides, I just like watching him float in the water," she said smiling.

"Well Katrina, he will look better out at the market and you will look better in that pretty dress that I'll buy you when I sell him," he said waving her off. He prepared the blue Pokeball and carefully took aim.

"Oh give it a rest Kenny. You wouldn't be able to sell that thing for more than a few hundred clams. Besides, you know your faulty 'homemade' Pokeballs never work," another fisherman said. "Besides, you can't buy your daughter's love with a pretty dress," he shot back.

Mewtwo dipped his head back under the water and swam back to his side of the bank. Katrina's happiness faded as Mewtwo disappeared from view. She turned and ran up the hill and left her father to argue with the fisherman. Her green dress flapped in the breeze as she reached the top of the hill. She pulled a Pokeball out of her pocket and opened it. A slender purple Espeon emerged and stared at her trainer. Her black eyes glistened a happy hello. Her ears suddenly perked up and she turned her head over her shoulder.

"What's wrong Sunny?" Katrina asked. As she looked in that direction. She heard a twig snap from behind her and she and Sunny spun around. Sunny's ears flattened as she hissed at Mewtwo's figure.

Don't be afraid, I promise that I won't hurt you. he said calmly. Katrina smiled.

"You can talk too?" she asked in awe as she glanced at Mewtwo.

You aren't alarmed at my ability to speak? he asked, rather astonished.

"No, Sunny talks to me all the time," she said shaking her head. He glared down at the purple Pokemon and smiled. She still hissed at him with her ears flattened to the side of her slender head. Katrina noticed this. "Sunny! Be nice to our new friend!" she scolded. "By the way, what's your name?"

Mewtwo, my name's Mewtwo. he smiled. He had never been called a "friend" before. He had heard of friendship, but never had he actually experienced it.

"Pleased to meet you. My name's Katrina," she said with a curtsy. "My mommy always tells me to curtsy when I greet a new friend," she said with a giggle.

I wanted to say thank you for saving me from the fisherman. I really appreciate it. he said with an awkward bow.

"It's OK. My daddy can sometimes be really mean, so I have to play all alone with Sunny," she said sadly. "Hey! Do you want to play with us?" she perked up. Her green eyes glistened and her rosy cheeks turned red with delight.

Sure, sounds fun. he said with a smile.

"Come on! I'll show you our secret spot!" she said grabbing Mewtwo's paw. She pulled him down the hill with Sunni running at her heels. The six year-old giggled as the gentle breeze blew about her as she ran down the hill.

She stopped in a small meadow. There were wildflowers of every color as far as the eye could see. Mewtwo could hear the birds chirping as Katrina fell to her knees. She began picking flowers of all colors and piling them in the skirt of her dress. Sunny helped pick flowers as well.

"Come on, find some flowers to pick!" she smiled excitedly.

What is the purpose of picking these flowers? he asked as he sat down.

"We're going to make flower wreathes silly!" she laughed. Mewtwo looked down at the flowers beneath him. He reached out his paw and plucked a daisy from the ground. He smiled as it swayed in the gentle breeze.

But aren't we killing the flowers? he asked as he sniffed the daisy. A warm scent filled his nostrils as he breathed deeply. Hundreds of wonderful smells met his nose as he took in the meadow.

"Don't worry, the flowers will grow back," she said as she set her flowers down and pointed to a little shoot. "Do you see that there?" she asked pointing to the little green shoot. "That's a picked flower that is growing back."

So all things that die will grow back like the flower? he pondered as he stared closely at the shoot.

"Well, I guess so. If flowers work like that, I guess we will work like that," she mused. "When my grandmamma died, mommy told me that she was still alive, but now she lives in a happier place," she said looking up in the sky. "She said that when you die, you go and live up in the clouds and watch over your friends," she said pointing up at the clouds slowly moving in the sky.

Will you ever see your grandmamma again? he asked looking up as well.

"I think so; I hope so," she said. "But let's make our flower wreaths!" she said returning to her work. She went carefully to work, weaving the flower's stems in and out, placing blades of grass in between. Sunny sat beside her and watched closely.

Before long a ring of flowers was made and she laughed when she saw the wreath she had created. She stood up and placed in on Mewtwo's head. She giggled as she sat back down.

"There, you can wear the wreath today since you're our new friend!" she said. Espeon squeaked in approval as she wagged her split tail. Mewtwo looked up at the flowery crown that rested on his brow. He smiled as he looked back at Katrina.

Thank you, this means a lot to me. No one has ever really called me a friend before. he said gratefully.

"Oh, well now you can go home and tell your mommy and daddy that you made a new friend today!" she smiled as she got up. "Come on! Let's go show daddy the pretty wreath I made!"

The three-some rose up and walked up the hill. On the way, they passed by some rose bushes. Katrina stopped and stared at the beautiful red roses.

"Those are so pretty! Mommy would just love to have those on the kitchen table!" she said in awe. "But the thorns are too long, so I can't pick them," she said sadly.

Mewtwo stared at the roses for a moment. He reached out his paw and pulled three roses off of the bush. He cringed in pain as the long sharp thorns dug into his skin. He used his other paw to carefully remove the thorns from the stems and he handed them to Katrina.

Here, you can take these to your mother. he said as he offered them out to her.

"Thank you so much!" she squealed as she gratefully took the roses. "But you cut your hands," she said remorsefully.

Don't worry about it. They will heal with time. he smiled. He did not mind the pain in his hand, because now he had a new friend.
A/N: Doesn't that make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? It just makes you want to go and hug a tree doesn't it?
