Wes sat alone on the cliff in front of Eagun and Beluh's home staring into the full moon in the nighttime sky. Apparently Rui came home and locked herself in her bedroom after she had yelled at Wes and ran off. Wes had had told her grandparents what had happened and he was very thankful that they weren't blaming him for why their granddaughter was crying upstairs.

Wes could hear tiny footsteps coming from behind him. Turning around, he saw Espeon, Umbreon, and Plusle all coming his way. He then took out to Poke balls and released Quilava and Hariyama. Espeon came and nudged Wes' arm with her nose and Umbreon licked his hand. They couldn't stand it when they're master was upset and they always tried to provide some sort of comfort for him whenever he was.

Hariyama walked up behind Wes and wrapped a large around him squeezing him into his big squishy belly. Was this his way of providing comfort? Even Quilava who was still a Shadow Pokemon was trying to comfort Wes by putting his head under Wes' hand hand so that he could stroke him.

Plusle jumped onto Wes' leg and looked into his eyes. Wes smiled sadly at the little Pokemon and rubbed his head. He let out a heavy sigh as the memories of what happened at the grave site continued to run through his head over and over again.

"What am I gonna do, Plusle?" Wes asked the little Pokemon on his leg.

Suddenly he heard more footsteps coming behind him. These ones were much louder though. Turning around again, He saw Eagun coming towards him.

"It get's cold out here at night don't you want to come inside?" He asked with a soft smile on his face.

Wes shook his head.

"I doubt Rui wants me anywhere near her right now." He said sadly.

"You mustn't blame yourself for what happened." Eagun said. "I promise you that Rui will be fine."

"She must hate me now." Wes said to him.

"What!? She could never hate you Wes." Eagun said. "Your something special to her. Because of what happened to her parents, Rui has felt terrible pain and heartache. Though she tries to smile and be as her mother was, she was never truly happy. When she first brought you here, I saw a genuine smile on her face. it was the happiest that I had seen her in a long time. I don't what is is you've done but you're helping heal her broken heart, and that's something I could not thank you enough for."

"You give me too much praise, Eagun." Wes said. "All she's ever is try to help me be a better person and do something right for once in my life. Yet until recently all I've ever done is act selfish and push her away. Now that I know about her parents I feel even more guilty about how I've treated her."

Suddenly footsteps approached behind both Wes and Eagun. They both turned around saw Rui who was mainly focused on Wes who was doing his best not to look her in the eyes.

"Grandpa could you let us have some time alone?" She asked her grandfather.

Eagun smiled and nodded his head. He then stood up and walked away from the two of them.

Rui stepped a little bit closer to Wes and put her hands behind her back.

"Hey" She said softly to the boy sitting in front of her.

"Hey" Wes replied just as quietly still trying to avoid eye contact.

"Do you mind if I sit with you for a while?" She asked.

Wes finally looked at her with sad eyes and he gave her an even sadder smile as he motioned his hand to a spot beside him.

Rui smiled and sat down beside him.

Wes looked at her for a moment and the smallest blush came on his cheeks when he thought about how pretty she looked when the moonlight shined upon her hair.

After a moment Rui turned and looked at him.

"I'm sorry about what happened back at the cave." She said in the most sincere and apologetic tone of voice.

"No Rui, I'm sorry I shouldn't have said the things that I said." Wes said in an equally and apologetic tone of voice.

"No Wes you were only trying to help and besides you were right. It is dangerous to mess with time. Grandma and Grandpa told me this when I once asked them if Celebi could go back in time could save my parents. I didn't understand back then but I do now." Tears began to come out of her eyes and her voice began to brake. "I was nothing but a stupid and selfish little girl to even wish something like that."

"No you were not stupid Rui. You love your parents and you miss them." Wes said in a sad tone of voice. "It's not stupid to miss the ones you love."

Rui looked at Wes concernedly. He looked like he was about to cry.

Wes looked away from her and continued to speak.

"You said to me at the grave site that I didn't understand how you felt and that I don't know what it's like to lose everything I love." He looked back into her eyes. "Your wrong about that. I do understand because I know exactly what it's like."

Rui gasped.

"W-Wes you don't mean..."

"I lost my parents when I was younger as well. Do you remember that village we saw before coming here?" Wes asked her.

"Y-Yeah"

"That was my home village."

Wes closed his eyes tightly and looked away as nasty memories began to haunt his mind. Memories of losing everything he loved and cared for. He put his hand to his head and tried to rid himself of those memories but they just wouldn't go away.

"Wes what's wrong?" Rui asked worriedly.

Wes began hitting his head and shaking violently the memories of what happened were hitting him like a violent hurricane.

"Wes, calm down!" Rui almost yelled before putting her hands on his shoulders.

Wes jumped at the touch but then looked into the worried eyes of Rui.

"Sorry it's just that thinking about what happened back then is something I'd rather not do. But that's not fair to you Rui. You opened yourself up to me about what happened to you in the past. I said things that I regret saying. Now I want to make this right. You told me about your past and now I want to tell you mine."

"What!?" Rui gasped. "N-No Wes you don't have to do that I know you've had a rough life but you don't need to tell me."

"Yes I do!" Wes said.

"Wes, I know how hard it is for you to talk about the past, please don't make yourself feel any worse."

"Rui, I need to tell you what happened to me because if anyone can understand the pain of losing the ones you love it's you. Your right it is hard for me to talk about the past but I have to do it."

Rui's look of worry was clear as crystal.

"But, Wes..."

"You told me that there shouldn't be any secrets between us and that I deserved to know what happened to you well you deserve to know what happened to me."

After a moment Rui finally gave in and nodded her head. Wes sighed and let his most painful flow back into his mind once again.

Author's note: I hope you all enjoyed the chapter. Yeah the chapter is short, but that's because I plan to do the same thing that I did with Rui's back story and make a long chapter this time involving Wes' back story. This short chapter long chapter pattern will probably occur for the next few chapters but I promise it won't last forever.

Next chapter Wes' past is revealed. What happened to him to make him the boy that everyone knows today. We're about to find out.

I'll see you all next chapter. :)
