He never thought the day would come; the day he would feel for a girl, only to have her leave. He didn't want that to happen, he wanted to be by her side, teaching her the ways of the Pokemon world. "Stay," he said, "I'll teach you how to battle." But her mind was already made up, "I'm sorry Gary, I promise I'll be back." Slight AU, mainly oldrival, slight poke, contest, & ikari.
