Pikachu564: The fight is over. Time to do the usual Introductions. Spark, if you could please tell us what happen in the past three chapters.
Spark: Oh... Um... Echo has finally met his mom and tried to escape to the Pikachu side with her, but he encountered the Eevee Guardians and had to fight each one. Echo had went passed all the Guardians and had to face the Empress, Muzét. He struggled against her and had almost failed his mission but Saix had made it in time and the Empress left Echo by hitting him with a Draining Kiss and walked away. Echo had fainted on the spot with Saix and Celsius by his side. Kirby on the other hand has made it to the Island and went towards the Pikachu Side to try and find Echo but little does he know that his friend isn't there.

Everyone: ...
Spark: Should we be saying something about this?
Pikachu564: Naw, it's just a silly comment. If he posted it, then he liked the story since he took the time to post it. He's being such a Tsundere saying he hated it.
Jude: Oh, you did not just say Tsundere.
Pikachu564: Shut up. Read the next one.
JetInMoonX: First, REDMASTEROFPOKEMON, get out of here you stupid genwunner. By the way, why are you here if you hate a pink puffball that beats fallen angels and the most dark Pokémon region?
Dang it, was too focused in that guy. Anyways, i just started reading this again, since The Child Of Mew is in an hiatus.
It's better than what i remembered. So freaking better! Though there are quite a lot of typos. I would love being a Beta-Reader! I easily can find typos, and i can know the chapter early! Woo-hoo! Everyone gets happy! Yay!- *Gets killed by Glaceon*
Pikachu564: Ah don't worry about it, he's likes the story, just won't admit it. And I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far. I would like you to be my Beta-Reader, but only if you actually want to.
Spark: The dude got killed by a Glaceon.
Rick: Looks like Jet isn't having a easy time with his Pokemon either.
Pikachu564: Whatever, just start the story. Also, Data is managing his own book now called Kirby's Adventure in Unova: Data's Data Book telling the information of every person and the Pokemon they captured. He already made a couple of chapters, so go check it out. Now without further announcements, let's begin the story.
Chapter 68: Family Reunion and Solving Conflicts.
Kirby...
Kirby was walking behind Ichiro until they stopped in front of a house. The building was near the beach and had tons of shattered rocks around it. It had bent iron bars, multiple targets around the yard, and three yoga mats on the sandy beach. The pink puff ball stared at Eva then at his friends behind him. He stared back in front of the building and walked up to the door. He knocked on it lightly and heard rustling inside it.
"I'm coming!" A man yelled. Kirby took a step back and saw the door open up to reveal a male trainer wearing a black hat, blue sweater, blue jeans, and a black t-shirt and a yellow pendant. He stared at Kirby first then shifted his attention to Ash and his Pikachu. "My name is Kiro, how can I help you?" He asked. Ash shook his head and pointed at Kirby, who was glaring at the man. The Star Warrior pointed his arm at him.
"How about you tell me where's my Pikachu?" He asked. The man stared at him for a couple of seconds then turned back.
"I would love too, but I'm in the middle of work. I'm so sorry, but you're on your own." He told him. He held the door and stared at Kirby. "Have a nice day." He told him. He was about to close the door, but Kirby held it with his stubby arm then threw it open.
"Ichiro, track down Echo!" Kirby ordered. The otter stared at his trainer then release Aura Radar. Kiro stared in surprise that he could use Aura then saw the otter look at him. He walked past him then went deeper into the house.
"No! Don't go in there!" He yelled. Ichiro opened the door then narrowed his eyes. {Aura Blade!} He sliced a Aura Sphere in half then jumped away for a Lucario to come out of the room with a Bone Rush in his hands.
{Who are you?} He asked. Ichiro pointed his shell-sword at the Pokemon and sighed.
{I'm Ichiro. I'm looking for a Pikachu with the name Echo. Have you seen him?} He asked. They remained still for while until a red beam hit Ichiro and sucked the otter back inside his Pokeball. Lucario disable his attack then looked at his Trainer.
"Axel, let's hear them out for now, work has to wait." He told them. He stared at everyone then went into his house. "Follow me into the living room." He told them. Kirby quickly followed him and sat on a chair with Kiro in front of him. The rest of the group went into the living and watch Kirby and Kiro staring at each other. "Can you explain to me why are you here?" He asked.
"We're looking for my Pikachu that is able to use the power of aura." He told him. The Aura Trainer glared at Kirby, but he shook it off. "With Ichiro's help, he tracked down two aura sources that were here. I was wondering if you had my Pikachu." Kirby asked. Kiro leaned back on his chair and looked at his Lucario.
"Well, your Oshawott needs to practice his aura more, because you're on the wrong side if you want to look for your Pikachu." He warned. Kirby looked at him confuse until he saw the trainer pointing at himself. "The sources you were following were both mine and Axel's power." He warned.
"You can use Aura?" Dawn asked. Xaldin laughed at her questioned and opened his palm. He formed a large Aura Sphere and diminished it. Everyone awed at his skill, butKirby eyes widen then stood up.
"Then Echo is on the other side?" He asked. Kiro nodded lightly, but thought about it.
"So that means that powerful source of energy was your Pikachu's aura." He whispered. He stared at Kirby then shook his head. "You can't control aura, so the Pokemon was clearly born with it." He muttered. His eyes widen slowly and grabbed Axel suddenly. "I can't believe it! It finally returned to us after all these years!" He yelled. Kirby and the group stared at him confused.
"What do you mean?" Ash questioned. Kiro let his Lucario go and smiled.
"You see, my Pikachu had mated with a Glaceon and the outcome was your Pikachu. We were force to sent the egg away into the ocean and we thought we'd never see it again. My Pikachu and the Glaceon were separated and were forced to stay on their side." He held his breath then grabbed a pendant around his neck and opened it to reveal him and Saix on one side and Annie and Celsius on the other. He closed it then stared back at the group. "One hour before you came, we felt a unknown source of aura coming from the Eevee side and I sent my Pikachu, Saix, to investigate the aura source, but I didn't think that aura source would be from another Pikachu." He explained.
"So?" Kirby questioned.
"So, your Pikachu, Echo, is the son of my Pikachu, Saix, and has finally returned to this island." He explained. Kirby held his breath and felt Eva grasp his head tighter.
[This means that Echo did came to find his family.] She thought. Kiro turned his attention to Saix's aura and smiled.
"You must be excited to finally meet your son, huh Saix?" He whispered. Kirby quickly stood up and jumped off the chair.
"I'm going to the Eevee side." He told them. He was about to walk away, but felt a large amount of energy behind him and slowly turned to see Axel and Kiro pointing Aura Spheres at him.
"I suggest you stay. There's no reason for you to act so rash now. Saix will bring Echo back, I can guarantee you that at the very least." Kiro warned. Kirby grunted, but he walked back to the chair and sat down. They both lowered their attacks while Kirby closed his eyes and looked down.
"Echo, please be safe." He whispered.
In Echo's head...
Echo was inside a white room with Fenrir on his chair and silently reading a book.
{What's going on Fenrir?} He asked. The dark colored Pikachu closed his book then stared at Echo.
{You fainted Echo. You exceeded your limit after pushing yourself too much.} He told him. Echo just sighed and looked up at the white ceiling. He thought about his father then closed them.
{Was that really my Dad?} He asked. Fenrir stood up and walked over to him.
{He is, but he's also gonna become your greatest trial.} He answered. Echo looked at him confused, but saw Fenrir taking a deep breath. {Echo, when the time comes, we're going to have to fight him.} He warned. Aura was escaping from his paw, then suddenly sent a powerful aura shock wave. {When the time comes, I'll be ready.} He told him. He walked back to his chair while the room suddenly started to glow bright green.
{What's going on?} Echo asked, Fenrir sat down, resting his cheek on his paw.
{Time to wake up. Your father is healing you.} He responded. Echo was about to grab Fenrir, but he teleported out of the room and the Pikachu remained alone.
{Saix, I hope you're ready, because you are about to face your strongest opponent yet.} He whispered.
Reality...
{Cure.} A voiced rang into Echo's head. He woke up slowly and opened his eyes. He was laying on something soft and was warm all around his body.
{Echo!} He turned his head and saw Celsius next to Saix. She had tears in her eyes and got close to him. {Are you okay?} She asked with care. Echo sat up, but felt pain all around his body. He lifted his arm and saw it all bandaged up. He slowly placed it on the mattress and stared at his parents.
{Ugh.. what happen?} He asked them.
{You fainted after battling against Muzét.} Saix answered. Echo stared at Saix for awhile. {What's wrong?} He asked.
{Are you really my father?} He asked. The orange Pikachu just laughed silently at his question.
{Well, you can use aura like me.} He told him. He release small amounts of aura from his paw and smiled at Echo. {That's one thing we have in common.} He told him. Echo remained quiet then held his head down. He gathered tears in his eyes and shook his head.
{I'm sorry dad, I couldn't get mom to you.} He told him. Saix just smiled and patted his head while Celsius gave him a hug. Echo pressed his head against his gather chest and cried lightly. {I was too weak dad. I'm sorry.} He cried.
{You did your best son, but I'm proud to know that you've been training enough to face against the Eevee Guardians by yourself.} He told him. Echo looked down and shook his head.
{I wasn't strong enough to face Muzét.} He whispered.
{Echo, Muzét is the strongest in the island.} She argued.
{You can say they are equally strong in their own way, but if you compare them in ranks, it the following. Muzét comes first. Celsius is second, Shadow is third, Aska is fourth, Martel is fifth, Efreet is sixth, Volt is seventh, and Undine is eighth.} Saix informed. Echo smile at the fact he finally got his family together.
{I'm glad we're together. } He whispered, but then remembered something Muzét said.
{Your mission is pointless! Eevees and Pikachus aren't meant to be together! Why can't you understand that!}
Kept echoing inside his head, He looked around and saw that he was in a white room still. It had multiple white flowers surrounding the edges of the room, a blue tea set on top of a round table, a large bookshelf with multiple books on it, a door marked 'exit' on it, and a large window. in front of him.
{Where are we?} He asked.
{Muzét's room.} Celsius answered. Echo stared around the area, but frowned.
{If this is her room, where is she?} He asked. Celsius pointed towards the window and Echo saw her standing on a balcony and staring at the sky. He pushed the blankets off him and tried to get off, but he felt a large amount of pain on his upper body and gasp in pain. Saix pushed Echo back on the bed, but cause damage onto the Echo.
{You're not fully healed. You may be conscious, but your body is still recovering from the battle. Just rest.} He ordered.
{I need to speak with Muzét.} He told him. Celsius and Saix stared at each other then at Echo.
{About?} Saix asked.
{I want to know why does she think that Eevees and Pikachus can't be together.} He answered. Saix and Celsius looked away, but Celsius stared at the balcony. Echo pushed himself back up, but this time surrounding his body with aura. He got back up easily that made his father smile while his mother confuse.
{Interesting, using aura to keep the pain under control.} He whispered. Echo slowly walked towards the window door and pushed it slowly opened. Celsius was about to stop him, but Saix held her and shook his head. {He can find out himself honey. Let's leave him alone for now.} He advised. He took her towards the exit foor and left the room, leaving Echo to go on the balcony where Muzét is. The Pokemon shifted her eyes toward Echo then back up at the sky.
{What do you want?} She asked. Echo slowly approached her and stood next beside her.
{I want to ask you a question if possible.} He told her. Muzét sighed heavily then looked at him.
{Fine, what is it?} She asked.
{Why do you think that Eevees and Pikachus can't be together?} He asked. Muzét glared at him then suddenly slapped him with her ribbon. Echo held his cheek, but remained silent for his answer.
{Shouldn't you leave with your family. You wanted to be together with them, so why don't you go now?} She told him. Echo lowered his arm and remained staring at her.
{I want my answer.} He insisted. She grit her teeth and swung her ribbons.
{Leave!} She yelled. She slapped Echo twice, but he remained standing.
{Please tell me.} He encouraged.
{Get out of my sights!} She tried to slap him again, but Echo quickly grabbed her ribbons. She tried to pull them away, but Echo remained still.
{Please.} He told her. She stopped pulling and remained silent.
{I believe that Pikachus and Eevees can't be together because... Pikachu's are nothing but brutes and battle hungry.} She told him. Echo pulled on her ribbons and glared into her eyes.
{You're lying. Tell me the truth now.} He argued. Muzét clicked her tongue and tried to avoid eye contact. She started to blush and tried to pull herself away.
{Please, let me go.} She requested. Echo shook his head.
{Answer my question and I'll let you go.} He told him. She was sweating lightly, but then sighed.
{I hate Pikachus with a passion.} She answered. Echo released his grasp and looked away.
{So you just hate Pikachus... is that why you want to separate my family?} He asked. She shook her head and laid down.
{I hate Pikachus because one Pikachu killed my mom and dad.} She answered. Echo released her and stared at her surprised. She slowly wrapped her ribbons around herself and shook her head. {A Pikachu was hired to assassinate both my parents and me, it was able to defeat mom and dad easily and took their lives. It was gonna go after me next, but Saix stopped him with his aura. He brought the Pikachu back to its side where they punished him for accepting the job. The Eevee side was at a loss, but I stepped up and declared that we should not cooperate with the Pikachu side anytime soon. Ten years past since then, and Saix is trying to make a effort to get our sides together again, but it won't happen.} She explained. Echo felt pain around his body and clench his teeth.
[I don't have enough time!] He thought. {What's it gonna take for you to bring the island together again?} He asked. Muzét stared at Echo quietly then raised her ribbons.
{You're on a adventure... right?} She asked. Echo nodded, but stepped back when he watched her slowly bring her ribbons closer to him and wrap it around his body. {How about this. I'll agree to make peace with the Pikachu side-} Echo eyes brighten, {If, you give up on your adventures and stay with me.} She said. Echo eyes shrunk at the answer and jumped out of the ribbons and saw her smile. {So Echo, is it your desire to help your parents get back together, or your desire to continue your adventure with your friend. What will it be?} Echo remained silent for awhile and stared at the sky. His eyes went blank for a second. He started to remember all the adventure he had with Kirby, with Eva, with Blade, with Chepi, with Ash, and with Pikachu. He saw all the badges right in front of him, then saw a clear Kirby turn around to face him.
'We can participate in the Unova League now guys. We're almost there to our goal.' Kirby told him. Echo remained silent and shook his head.
{I'm sorry Kirby... I need to get my parents back together.} He whispered. Muzét smiled and turned around.
{Okay, I'll tell your father I'm ready to make peace with the Pikachu side then, but keep this agreement a secret between us, or else, the deal is off.} She told him. Echo watched her pass by him and walk out of the room. He slowly approached the bed and climbed on it. He laid down gently and felt the aura around his body disappear. He a felt a small amount of pain around his body, but he felt more pain in his heart and was releasing tears from his eyes.
Pikachu564: That's the end, hope you enjoy the Chapter.
Spark: You can't do this! I want Echo to be in the story even more T_T
Rick: Aw shut up. Let him stay with his parents, its best for him. 10 years without his family, god.
Pikachu564: His faith will be decided on the next couple chapter so stick around I guess.
