Innocencia at Maturite (Innocence and Maturity)

Summary: This is a Tie-in prequel story with The Fantasy of Reality through the eyes of Remy Anima. After fleeing from his homeland, he began dreaming a mysterious cry from the echoes of his mind. Until, upon meeting the pokemon to their world, it rekindled his shattered soul back to life.

Update: Fiery, if you're reading this, this chapter is one of those chapter where I fixed the plot hole. Hopefully, my tie in story can help you more on knowing my OC on your story.

Chapter 3: Best of both worlds

Timeline: 4 days before meeting Lucy. Day 5 at 9 am.

With the sun rising, our faces were greeted by a luminous line of rebirth. Stretching ourselves up, I did a couple warm ups to my body: like Neck Rotating, Arm stretching, Leg Stretching, Chest and Back stretching, and a couple Jumping Jacks. I could only laugh as Cinna mint tried copying my actions. It's hard for me to frown at her attitude. So much optimism that I felt like the sour grapes getting sweetened by her strawberry tongue. Hey, I didn't say that I kissed her lips to lips!

Cooking myself some bacon and some sunny side up eggs, I used the remaining rice last evening to make myself some fried rice. Of course the fruit salad never gets behind since both of us only ate one sixth of the entire fruit salad that I made last evening.

*Ding Dong*

"Minccino?" petting her head, I carried her until I opened the doctor. Guess what? It's a mailman! With a Pelipper stalking me! I can't help but feel like that Big Beak was eyeing me. "Ccino?"

"Uhhmmm. Sir … what is your concern here?" I needed a bit of scratching from what's happening now.

"Are you Sir Remy Anima?" this mailman was one of those that carried bright colors that make him look like owning a car washer. Add the Pelipper on the hot-pot … I got the most awkward reality encounter ever. Anyways, nodding was all I did. I had to put down sister for me to carry this package that he's giving to me, "This is something from Oscar Ranui that he wanted to give to you." As he checked his watch, "Thanks for calling our service. Hope we could serve you again." He left the scene that will make my day so weird. I'll never understand why I wanted to break a Pelipper's beak when I was a kid.

After we finished our breakfast, we checked our special package and it turns out I got my old Wii kit back along with my video games too. I'll never understand how he did it. More to that, I got few of my old clothes back and a few novels that I bought when I was a kid. Though I can't name them all, I still remember "The Scorpion's Gate" as one of my mostly read novels. It is written by a politician as well. At the bottom of the package, I got a letter.

Dear Remy

I hope that I didn't miss out anything that you used from your old country. But nonetheless, I hope you got one chapter done for me to read for my return. I don't know what book you're writing now. But I'm sure that it is something new for us both. I must tell you that there is an upcoming event about a new business opening for the first time at sunset. I'd recommend that you go there with your furry pal. Perhaps you could find an inspiration on that event. The location is at Auckland. It's a bit far from your place. So I highly recommend that you leave early. Enjoy the moment of your new leaf.

So after tailoring my new home, both of us took a bath together (don't ask what happened) and dressed up for this place he invited us to visit. I still took my bicycle to get there and used my GPS phone to navigate my way around. But I had to ask for directions the old classic way.

Arriving at the event in Auckland, there are lots of people celebrating the opening of a new business about a new human organization. But what made it more wonderful was the fact that they included the pokemon to make the party more enjoyable. From psychic types teaching young kids basic writing skills, to human adults training their new pokemon companion to speak the human tongue, this place is booming with life. Of course we joined the celebration at a drop of a hat.

Looking inside the building left me with so much to choose from. Seeing a line of people buying a book about "Happiness", I joined the fray as well. "Hello there sir. You're one of today's luckiest customers to get your hands on our new book that you can use for your everyday life. This is called 'The key to Happiness'. I hope you and your companion will enjoy reading this." Grabbing my lucky free book and saying my gratitude, both of us kept searching for a book that Cinna Mint that she must learn. An English speech book, along with a 'Normal type Pokemon to English translation book'. Combine these and I got two books totaled One hundred ten dollars.

After a long bike returning back home, and dealing with her Ice Cream craze along the road, sunset is about to cease. I think dinner would be much more appropriate before I began teaching her.

"Minccino! Mincci! Min!" both of us were having sliced apples and fruit salad for our dinner that night. The apples may not be the ones that I know anymore. But I still accepted it just like every apple.

"I'm sorry sister. I couldn't understand much of what you say."

"Minn…" I hate seeing that disappointed expression.

"Don't glum me up sis. I have a way for me to understand and understand." Smiling, I picked up the book that I need to read after I finish that one chapter by tonight. Curiosity caught the fisher of her face. "Once I learned your language, I can clearly understand everything that you speak." That happy cheer on her face will always be priceless, "Though it won't be quick, I'll do the best that I can." After telling that to her, she looked quite assured.

"But promise me this sister. Can I train you to speak human tongue like me?" please … don't tell me she just swayed her head away from me. "Awww c'mon! I couldn't understand completely on your ow-" the moment she turned around with a goofy face that made my skin as white as a ghost. Oh that laughter.

"Mincci!" Though I don't get her language, it must be a yes after she landed a joke on that night.

"Just as I learned her world, now she will learn my world. Just what Hannah Montana's signature song says, 'you've get the best of both worlds'." For the remaining night, I finished the first chapter of my new book about New Zealand.
