"Live on… happily…"

"No… this isn't happening…"

"Have courage…"

"Brendan! No!"

"I love you…"

"Brendan! BRENDAN! BRENDAN!"

May gasped lightly as she woke up. She gripped her forehead as she started to breath deeply.

"Mom… are you ok?" A small voice said. May turned quickly and looked at her son in surprise.

"Yuuki… I'm fine… just a bad dream that's all…" May said as she got up. She looked at her clock and sighed; Company was due over anytime now.

"Okay... I'm going to train with my Treecko now, I'll be back later…" Yuuki said cutely before hopping happily out of the room. May smiled lightly as she watched him go. She then glanced over to Brendan's picture.

"Brendan's son… through and through…" She said softly. Her eyes softened as she stared at the picture.

"MOM! Uncle Drew is here!" She widened her eyes as she ran off to the bathroom.

"So… how do you think of taking up contests and becoming a Coordinator like me or your mother?" Drew asked Yuuki as he grinned. Yuuki looked at him and chuckled.

"No way!" Drew sweat dropped. "I'm going to become a strong trainer, and defeat anyone who challenges me." He replied, raising a hand triumphantly. Drew chuckled.

"The apple doesn't fall far from the tree now does it?"

Yuuki looked up at him in confusion. Drew chuckled again and ruffled his white hair.

"You'll understand when you get older…"

"Drew… Yuuki, you can go out now. Remember to come home before it gets dark okay?" May said as she gave him a peck on the cheek. Yuuki smiled brightly and ran out.

"Make yourself at home." May said as she pointed to the couches. Drew sat down and stared at her.

"How has it been going?" He asked.

"Well, Yuuki has been doing really well in Poke School. His scores put him near prodigy… but that's to be expected…" She said quietly. Drew glanced towards the window.

"Tomorrow… will be exactly ten years from the incident…" He surveyed her. "You've been loosing sleep again… are you having nightmares?"

May looked down guiltily. "Yes… I've been having that nightmare almost constantly now…" She sniffed lightly as her eyes glistened.

"That moment replays over and over again. It's like loosing him over and over again…"

Drew handed her some tissues. He sighed lightly as his eyes softened.

"Are you still feeling guilty?" He asked quietly. She glanced at him quickly, wiping her forming tears.

"That was my fault, and nothing I do could ever repay him…"

Drew smiled softly as he looked at her.

"You are showing him your love right now… You're keeping his promise of living on, raising Yuuki to be a fine young man… but you're not happy…"

May widened her eyes lightly, a sudden thought flowing into her.

"Live on… happily…"

"You know his memento? Open it… if not for yourself, then by all means, pass it down to Yuuki… He's about to become a trainer himself." He said softly. May nodded softly as she got up.

May pulled out an old box from the shelf. May softened her eyes as she opened it, touching the familiar fabric. She pulled the head band out softly, careful as it was fine china.

"I'm going to go now… you better get some sleep…" Drew said as he left. May waved at him as he closed the door. She laid down and closed her eyes, holding the headband close to her heart.

"Brendan… is that you…?"

"May… thank you…"
