Chapter 5: Discovering Lost Memories

White couldn't help but smile as she felt N's arms around her waist as they flew on Reshiram's back toward Ilex Forest. It wasn't a far flight so they got there pretty quickly landing between the forest and Goldenrod.

'Well we are here Mistress and Hero of Ideal,' Reshiram roared quietly toward the two as they climbed down from her back.

"Thank you Reshiram," White said pulling out her pokeball, "You may return now."

'As you wish Mistress,' Reshiram nodded bowing her head returning to the pokeball.

"So you can understand Reshiram?" N asked standing beside White looking down at her in surprised by that.

"Yeah, she is the only one I understand though," White said with a nod at him grabbing his hand turning to face the forest, "Come on let's go find this shrine."

N nodded lightly deciding to drop the whole conversation about why she could understand Reshiram for now saying, "Alright, well from above I would guess the shrine is near the center of the forest and may require some careful maneuvering to reach."

"If you say so let's check there first," White said dragging N into Ilex Forest behind her to look for the shrine.

* 2 hours later...*

"Damn it where is this freaking shrine," White said falling back into the grass staring up at the trees. They had been searching for 2 hours straight and found nothing that even resembled a shrine.

"Give me the GS Ball, I have an idea," N said looking down at White holding out his hand for the GS Ball.

"Whatever you say," White said pulling the GS Ball from her pocket handing it to N it beginning to glow when it touched both there hands.

N smiled seeing the glow saying, "As I thought, this will lead us to the shrine if we keep both our hands on it since it is our wish to both meet Celebi."

"I see, alright then random magic pokeball," White said pushing herself up before placing her hand over N's again looking into the forest watching in surprise as it seemed like the vines were moving to reveal an old stone shrine with a curve in it the perfect size for the GS Ball.

"Well it seems we have found it," N said taking the ball grabbing White's hand with his empty one running toward the shrine excitedly placing the GS Ball in the curve.

Suddenly the sound of music filled the air around them as a small green pokemon appeared flying above the shrine. "Bi," Celebi said happily looking at the two, "Bi bi."

"Uh what is he saying N?" White asked looking over at N beside her figuring this was Celebi.

"I have no idea," N said scratching the back of his head, "I can't understand him... this is the first time that happened."

Celebi flew forward touching both White's and N's foreheads pushing them back as the forest began to spin. It became a blur like it was melting, changing into something else.

White felt herself hit the floor looking over at N who was wide eyed surprised by where they were. White looked around remembering this room from N's Castle, it was N's room. It filled with toys everything from a small slide to a big train set.

N grabbed her hand quickly pulling her into the closet closing the door all but an inch as the door opened to the toy room. A little girl came in pulling a little boy that was a toddler in behind her.

"Marcia please slow down, I know you want to play but do we have to wake up father by making so much noise," the little boy said frightened by how much noise . He had long light green hair, dark gray eyes, and wore a orange shirt with gray shorts that were much to big for him.

The little girl, Marcia who had dark green hair and dark green eyes, turned to look at the boy with a frown saying, "Don't be such a spoil sport N. Father will never hurt you as long as I'm here. It is my fault anyway so I'll take the blame if he wakes up. Now where are our Zorua's."

As she said that two black and red pokemon ran toward them. One was plain and ran straight to little N while the other had a red bow on her head as she came over to Marcia.

"Awww ZoZo your so hyper today," Marcia said kneeling down petting the Zorua with the red bow that came to her it was just about a foot shorter then the little girl. The Zorua bit the bottom of Marcia's red dress pulling her toward the slide happily to play.

Little N sat down with his Zorua watching his big sister play on the slide frowning hoping there Father wouldn't wake up. He couldn't stand the thought of his big sister getting hit again for something they both did.

"Aren't you going to come play?" Marcia asked looking over at N noticing the frown, "Oh come on N, just play with me while we can."

Little N looked up at his sister nodding getting up running over to play with her happily. They played and played for several minuets until the door flew open with an angry Ghetsis standing there.

"Here you two brats are, Playing instead of going to your lessons. Whose idea was this?" Ghetsis said in anger his voice full of hatred for the little kids.

Marcia went forward pulling her hand out of Little N's grasp when he grabbed for it saying, "It was mine father."

"How many times do I have to tell you? Don't call me that," Ghetsis said grabbing Marcia by the hair pulling her up above the ground slapping her hard before dropping her.

Little N ran forward kneeling beside his sister sadly looking up at Ghetsis saying, "Fa... Ghetsis please don't hurt her anymore."

"What did you just say to me, N?" Ghetsis asked looking down at them grabbing the little boy pushing him into the wall hitting him hard in the stomach.

Meanwhile, in the closet with White and 22 year old N.

"We got to help them," White whispered going to push open the door but stopped as N grabbed her pulling her back.

"We can't, this is supposed to happen remember what Silver told us," N whispered into her ear obviously on edge himself.

White looked toward him seeing the anger in his eyes nodding knowing he was right especially since the little boy out there was him. She never imagined this is what N had went through as a child.

She looked back outside into the toy room to continue watching twitching as she watched Ghetsis throw little N over next to his sister.

"I can't have you back talking me like your pitiful sister," Ghetsis said in anger, "That's it, your sister is going with Jonna to Fiore so she will stop corrupting you and interrupting your destiny."

Little N looked up at Ghetsis tears in his eyes as he looked back down at his little sister. Ghetsis left the room as a older woman came in quickly to treat the children.

White and N felt the room start to spin again around them as they fell back landing back in the forest with Celebi no where in site. White rubbed her forehead as she watched N get up.

N had tears in his gray eyes as he looked down muttering, "I forgot that my sister took most of the abuse before she left..."

White got up quickly wrapping her arms around N whispering, "You couldn't control what your father did to you two. You were only 3 after all... a very intelligent 3 year old it seemed but still only 3."

N nodded looking at White kissing her forehead lightly saying, "Yeah your right... maybe there is still time though. We need to find out how my sister grew up after she left with Jonna, our nanny."

"Then you know where we need to go now," White said with a small smile looking up at N.

"Where?" N asked looking down into White's eyes his own still having tears falling from them.

White simply smiled before saying, "Fiore."
