"Try to catch me…" I said to someone I found familiar.

"Do you think this is a game?" He answered aggressively.

"It's not a game… unless you want it to be a game. I want freedom," I turned my back on him. "And… you want me, right? Let's just say it's a bet for now."

"A bet…" He whispered, slowly staring at the marble floor.

"By tomorrow, I will be hidden. I'll make it look like I never touched the earth." I could feel him shift quickly and slowly aching to grab his pokemon. "I'm not going to commit suicide. I said I would be hidden, right? If you can ever find me, then you win. But if you can't, then I win."

"No time limit?" He tried to laugh. "Since when did you get cocky?"

"I learned from the best," I answered, slowly taking a step near the window and green flashed in my eyes for a second. "You'll have to search out the whole world three times if you want to find me." I slowly glanced at the shadowed figure. "If you're lucky."

"Leaving without a hug?" He flirtatiously smirked. "Not even a kiss?"

"Well then, I'll be leaving now," I turned my back from him, ignoring his requests. "This bet starts at six in the morning." I looked at the old clocks hanging on the walls.

"It's eleven fifteen... Since there's time, let's have a set of rules to make it fair. I don't want to see my face on the streets, you know." I heard him silently clicked his tongue. Good thing I suggested this before leaving. "First, I don't want my face seen in any electronics or shows or any kind of social interaction. Second, you're the only one who can catch me. No one else can do it for you. Third, you are able to ask people where I could be but I don't suggest it."

"Why don't you suggest it?" He asked innocently.

"I think you can find that out for yourself," I said. "Since you're a detective, right? Do you have any suggestions to our bet?"

"Just one," he said. "You can't fall in love with anyone else."

"Manipulative? I'm not surprised since this is the core reason of our bet," I sighed as I stood up but I remembered something. "The only way for you to win is to touch me like a simple tap or push."

"Oh? Do you want me to touch you? That can be rearranged," he smiled.

"Very funny," I sighed. "I'll be going now. I guess this is our last meeting."

"Last? I think this is the very beginning," he grinned.

Faitsu slowly lifted herself from her bed. "A dream?" She whispered as she scratched her messy hair.

"It looked more like a memory… but I can't remember who that guy is…" she thought as she grabbed her clothes to take a shower. The only hint that she got about that guy was that he was a detective and he was somewhat a flirt.

"A flirt?"

She shouldn't jump into conclusions but she should give some thought to that man. She also shouldn't overthink this dream could be a memory of sort but she couldn't help it. Her life is very frustrating and she needs to think of something else than the negative.

"How annoying," she sighed as she was done taking her shower and began making herself coffee and a piece of toast. "This job is annoying, that man is annoying, and…" She thought aggressively until the toaster binged to interrupt her negative thoughts. Faitsu sighed heavily and ripped the toast with her mouth as she fixed her bag and shoes. Hopefully, "TimeGate Travelers" could let her boss give her a vacation because damn, she really needed it. She locked the door of her home and started walking to the BW agency which is only a bus away but she'd rather walk. She enjoyed taking in the nature of the forests and the thin rivers in the morning so she always wakes up extra early.

"Oh! What a coincidence!" Faitsu heard a painfully familiar voice. She slowly turned around hoping it was someone else but Arceus has failed her. She thought she should've woken up foongus.

"Do you like walking in the forest, Faitsu?" Rakutsu laughed happily as he jogged towards her pace.

"Not anymore…"
