"Okay, it's settled, I've just called Aether Paradise, and they've agreed to help you return home"
"Wait really!? I wonder how different it is..." Moone said to himself before wincing with a light groan. "Man, I wish I asked her how she used her healing..."
"And this girl you speak of, I assume it to be other-world Lillie?" Akari asked
"Yep, though she didn't have a whole lot of control over it. She seemed hesitant to try to learn"
"I see, this Aura of yours, is it limited?"
"Unfortunately so, I have to absorb it after using it, so I have to be careful with how I use it."
"I see"
"So, this is the second Akari you mentioned? Moone, was it?"
"Yeah, that's me..." Moone looked up and saw Plumeria, to which he tried to get away and panicked, though it was not effective as he harmed himself in the process.
"Oh!? Are you alright?" She asked, rushing to him, though he panicked, she wasn't anywhere near intimidating. She had neatly combed hair with a pink and blue ponyta-tail, a labcoat tied around her waist, and one of the admin uniforms for Aether Paradise. She wasn't intimidating, far from it actually.
"Moone, restrain yourself. Need I remind you, your world is a mirror of ours, any enemies you had here are likely the opposite"
"O-oh...Right, sorry..."
"How fascinating... This copy of me, as you said, are they your enemy?"
"Well...Not specifically them... They were part of a dangerous group of thugs that called themselves "Team Skull"
"Team Skull? Oh, they've been causing trouble here for ages! Their leader, Lusamine has made them impervious to catch!"
"L-Lusamine!? She's evil!?"
"I'm afraid so, in fact, I'm sure there's a wanted poster around somewhere...Oh! I have one on my phone!" She pulled out her phone to which Akari loudly cleared his throat
"Can we move on? I cannot have this simpleton remain here any longer."
"Jeez, what a snob..." Moone and Plumeria said at once, before glancing at each other and laughing.
"My apologies...We can begin healing soon, we have an Audino that can use "Heal Pulse" and should fix you up in no time! But, here's the photo, she looks like this, be wary of her" She looked just like she did in Moone's world, however, her clothes were torn and ragged, lips with a dark, malicous, red lipstick, glowing silver eyes, and messy green hair placed into a ponyta-tail. Additionally, it looked to be a mug shot, as if she had been arrested before, though she didn't seem distraught, rather she appeared as if she enjoyed it.
"Wait...Green hair and silver eyes?" He looked back at Akari. "Are you Lusamine's son!?"
"I don't care how much of her DNA I have, I will never be anything like that hag!"
"But I thought Lusamine was Lillie's mum?"
"In your world, maybe, but here, the differences likely caused something to set different paths."
"Oh, right. I knew that, it's just surprising, Y'know?"
"Let us move on!"
"Right, right. My apologies, I shouldn't have brought it up. Moone, don't worry, my Audino will heal you, it'll feel a bit weird, but it won't hurt... Alright, use Heal Pulse!" Saying it would feel weird was the understatement of the century, he felt as if there was foreign energy moving at the speed of light all across his body. It wasn't just a chill down his spine, it was an entire blizzard. Despite that, it worked well, his body was cured. No broken bones, no bruises or scratches. However, his previous scars remained. Not only was he feeling an odd energy, but he also noticed the mark on his hand darkening.
"Huh...Wait, that energy was an aura, which means...Yes!" He looked down at his hand, practically dancing everything was placed back into place so he may return to his world, all until a cackle erupted from outside the room with the lights shutting off completely.
"Hope ya aren't afraid of the dark!" It sounded like Lusamine, but, it was definitely new to Moone. She cackled again as the door shut closed and locked from the outside as she damaged the closing mechanisms somehow.
"Don't worry, I'm on it!" He created a wormhole in front of him, the other end appearing in the hallway as he jumped through and confronted her with a blade of light.
"Huh!? Wait...Akari? I can't believe you've got my powers too! Now you can finally join me!"
"Join you? Sorry Lusamine, but I'm not who you're looking for?"
"What? Don't you lie to your mother! And show some respect!" She said before creating a wall of aura and forcing him against the wall, the pressure preventing him from moving as she approached and examined him. He looked like Akari, but there was definitely something different. She activated her aura sight before taking a closer look at him. Vastly different auras, his was much more powerful.
"Wait...You really aren't him..."
"Do you miss him?"
"More than anything."
"Oh... Unfortunately, I'm from another world, so I'm not your son. I'm Akari in my world, but here people just call me Moone..."
"Oh..."
"And, I'm sorry, but as a criminal, I'm gonna have to defeat you!" He absorbed the aura restraining him and tackled her into a wormhole of his own. Doing so allowed him to absorb her aura and place her in the other room, just before taking Plumeria and Akari out into the hallway.
"Wow, I never would have thought your power was like that! That's incredible!"
"Huh? Oh, uh...Thanks... But, Akari. She seemed to miss you... A lot"
"She can do what she wants. She's not my problem"
"Well still, if you give up on the world, you're just giving up on yourself"
"So be it. I don't need anyone."
Plumeria cleared her throat. "So... Does that mean you have the power to return home?"
"Yeah, I think so!" He created a wormhole in his old room, but it only showed Lillie's room in this world. "Oh...I guess not..."
"Well, surely if there was a way to get you here, there must be a way back!" Plumeria suggested, trying to brighten his mood.
"It's only logical..." Akari admitted "Though it would require a system far more advanced and precise than your abilities"
"That's true... Hey, how'd you end up here?"
"It's a little hard to remember, I think Faba used a machine..."
"Faba? Oh! I can go get him for you, he's great with electronics!"
"Really!? That'd be great!"
"So, a machine to visit parallel worlds actually exists? I never would've thought it'd be possible"
"Is it not the same as my portals?"
"Not exactly. Let me try to explain" Faba approached a chalkboard before drawing a line in the middle and a circle on each side. "Over here is our world, or rather. This world as you come from another. And on this side, is your world. Always apart, never touching until you appeared. But that pathway is still closed. With each world, both have connections to other worlds. I theorize that somehow a device contained aura powerful enough to breach the barrier"
"Powerful enough? So that's what she meant..."
"She? May I ask who you're referring to?" Faba asked.
"Oh, it's my friend from my world...Lunala told me that while she saw that I had a power she's never seen, my friend was much more powerful than I am"
"A power she's never seen?"
"I have control over my body's Aura, and Ultra Aura"
"I see, that is unusual. I am still rather new to the use of Ultra Aura, but I've had someone assist me with my research"
"Was it Lillie?"
"Why, yes! Was she the friend you spoke of?"
"In my world, yeah. Though she's powerful, she's still struggling to learn"
"That's understandable. I remember seeing Lusamine before she changed sides. I've theorized that it's difficult to limit how much aura one uses at a time, though I haven't seen many research subjects."
"Oh...Oh! Wait, I can just try to communicate with this world's Lunala!"
"A grand idea!" Faba exclaimed, though Moone had already planted himself onto the ground and began to meditate.
"That Aura!? Lusamine, I've no further sympathy for you!"
"H-huh, wait, I'm not Lusamine! I'm from another world!"
"Another world? So you're one chosen by another Lunala?"
"Y-yeah...I'm Akari, but they call me 'Moone' here"
"I see, unfortunately, I am uncertain of why you contacted me"
"Uhm...About that...I'm trapped here, and my world's in danger..."
"I'm so sorry...But I cannot directly help you..."
"W-what? Why not!?"
"Unfortunately, I cannot...There's a world order that all, including me, must follow. We may not travel between parallel worlds, if you have arrived from another world, they who have breached the barrier have broken order, and will soon be given divine justice...I'm sorry that I cannot help you"
"Oh...What can I do?"
"I'm afraid that the only way I can safely take you across the border is through Arceus"
"Arceus?"
"Have you not heard of Arceus? They birthed the world, the universe, and all the worlds in between"
"Oh, I had no idea, How would I find them?"
"That I do not know..."
"Oh...Thanks, I'll find a way!"
"I see now...Though our meeting was short, I see why your Lunala selected you. I pray that you may find your home"
"Thanks Lunala, I hope you can make up with Lusamine, I think deep down she is a good person, but she just made some bad choices"
"Your innocence baffles me, but alas, your kind is full of surprises. Farewell, Akari,"
"Cya later!"
"Did it end well? May you return to your world?"
"Yes, and no... But she said a Pokémon named Arceus might help me"
"In that case, I would recommend proceeding to another region... I'm certain you'll find a way home soon!"
"Thanks! But which region?"
"I'm not sure..."
"Oh, well if that's out the window... Faba created that machine to bring me over, maybe you could make one too? Wait...no, that would go against the world order...Oh! How about...No, that wouldn't work either..." He mumbled, trying to think but always came up short.
"Hey, you needn't lose faith, you'll find a way back, I'm sure of it" He placed his hands on Moone's shoulders "I believe in you, get back home, your world needs you"
"Right, I'm on my way. I promise!"
