Epilogue

The sound of the wind and birds chirping came to Chris' ears. He soon opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on his back. The sun was in his face, causing him to cover his eyes. He looked around to see he was in an open field. "Man, if this is heaven, then I totally got the wrong perception," he said.

He got up and saw that he was no longer wearing military attire, but regular casual clothes. It was strange though, because he felt like he was alive. He felt like himself, before all the events that took place. He put a hand to his chest, and felt his heart beating. This was all so strange. "Chris!" He looked behind him and saw a familiar Pikachu coming up to him.

"Pikachu?" he said. "What's going on? Where are we?"

"I can't say," Pikachu said. "I was in a place similar to this when I… well died."

"So we are dead?" Chris asked.

"Yeah, it seems like that," Pikachu said.

(A/N: Okay, this is the LAST song of the story, I promise. Now, this is one of those songs that someone no one knows made. The name of it is "The Legend of Zelda (Wii) – "Mistress Sword Theme." Like I said, it's a song someone created it but it's pretty cool. This is pretty much a tribute to all the other stories Chris and Pikette have been in.)

*"Well, you have any idea what it could be?" Chris asked.

"I think so," Pikachu said. "Now, perhaps this is where all humans and Pokemon go when they die, but maybe it's something else. Maybe because of how unfortunate we were, we were given a second chance in a new world."

"So, this place is completely different?" Chris asked. "But, I don't see anything really. No Pokemon or humans."

"Well, I'm sure there's plenty around here somewhere," Pikachu said, smiling. 'We just have to look. Actually, there's something I've been wanting to ask you Chris."

"What's that?" Chris asked.

"I was wondering, since we've quickly become acquaintances," Pikachu said. "I thought maybe I could tag along with you."

Chris thought about it. He then smiled. "Hell, why not?" he said. "I'm sure one more adventure won't kill me." Both of them laughed at the joke. "Actually, there's one thing I'd like to ask."

"Anything," Pikachu said.

"I know you want to be referred to as "Pikachu," but I thought maybe I could give you a nickname, that way I don't get anyone confused," Chris said.

"I don't see why not," Pikachu said. He then thought about it. "You know, I really like the name Marcus."

"Very well then," Chris said, laughing. "Marcus the Pikachu." He then realized something. "Wait a minute, you said people go here when they die, right?"

"Right," Marcus said.

"Well, then that means Emily, Dex, and Rick could be around here somewhere," Chris said.

"Could be," Marcus said. "You want to find them, don't you?"

"You bet I do," Chris said. "So, what do you say, partner?"

Marcus then got up on Chris' shoulder. "You got it, partner." They then set off into the unknown land, not sure what they would experience.

(A/N: And that will end it! Finally, after so long, this series has finally come to an end. Well, almost if you count Pokemon 6.1 coming up, but it's practically done now. It was so much fun to do and really made me what I am now. Now that that's done, we could move on to the next series, "Pokemon Beginnings," as well as other side-projects. There'll be some different things I do for those, but I'll explain once it comes up. Now, here's something important so pay attention. What I plan to do now is instead of working on just one story, I'll be working on multiple stories, which means updating may take a bit longer. I think it'll make the stories be done quicker, but that's just me. Well, I think that's it for right now so once again thanks to everyone who has read my stories and much, much more is yet to come.)

Pikette – Man, it's finally over.

Me – I know, but we ended it with a bang, didn't we?

Pikette – Sure did. Now the fun stuff can begin.

Me – All in due time. Now, before I forget, I gotta do the usual stuff. I want to thank Nintendo for making such a cool series, to all those composers and music writers whose music I've used, the fans for appreciating my works, and so on. We're at a defining moment right now, and I can't wait to start this new series off, because it's gonna be amazing.

Pikette – Yeah, this one upcoming story could be one of your best.

Me – Well, we'll let everyone else decide. Until then, this is Pikette and FoxMcCloud7921 signing out!
