Now I can upload! I've been trying forever... But now its up! And makes twice as less sense as usual!

Sorry, really giddy. Now to thank TJay-Drag-Latios'of'the'Cookie, Wings that bring the fate, MineralRabbit for reviewing.

"Sorry." I apologized to the Surskit. "I'm just so happy. I just remembered part of my past." I put my paw behind my head. "I just wish it was something else that I remembered…"

Suddenly the air around me turned frigid. I felt as though I were being ripped apart by an unknown force. Slowly the world turned black, and I was left in the middle of nothing.

"Well, well. What do we have here?" A deep voice asked from behind me. I turned around and came face-to-face with a large, four-legged beast. It was blue, and had a large, purple cape/mane that was blowing in some non-existent wind.

I recognized it immediately. "The North-Wind." I bowed as well and as low as I could, murmuring, "Suicune…"

The Suicune lowered its head to mine, and then spoke. "Please do not bow. Raikou will try to kill me if he finds out that I had someone bow to me before he did." I suppressed a confused glance at the Suicune, and lifted my head. He continued. "Thank you. Now, do you know why you are here?" I shook my head. He sighed. "It's because you have passed my test."

"Your test?" I asked. "I did not know that you were testing me."

He smirked. "You did, but you had no memory of it. Even now you do not remember because those memories are lost to you."

"Lost? How did I lose them?" I was completely confused. Suicune did not answer me, so I asked again. "How did I lose my memories?" I then thought I made the connection. "Did you take them?"

He shook his head no. "The memories of your human years are lost to you because you were reborn. The reason for the delay in your losing them is still unknown, even to the best of us." He shook his head again. "I wish I could speak to you longer, but I have to go and you have to wake up."

"Wait." I said, and he did so. "Can you at least tell me why you are testing me?"

He sighed again, a look of sorrow passing over his face. "Even if I did know why, I would not be able to tell you. I just do as Raikou asks." He paused thoughtfully. "Maybe you should ask him when he comes to visit you. If he does."

He then started faded slowly, and I then felt a rush of cold air. I blinked, and saw the Surskit standing there still. I then heard footsteps off to my left, and I turned to see James and that girl that won the battle standing there. James picked me up, and the girl bent down to pick up the Eevee. The Surskit looked up at her, and she picked it up with her free hand.

"So…" James began. "Do you want to come with us, Alex?"

The girl looked at James, me in his hands, and nodded quickly. "Sure. I want to get to first gym as much as you do, and it's always great to have someone human to talk with."

James nodded. "That's good." He then looked around the clearing. "Which way is the exit?"

Route 101. Never let anyone tell you it's the shortest route in all of Hoenn unless they traveled it when it's ninety-some degrees out. The sun beat down on our heads as we walked through the short grass towards shade that Arceus-knows-where-it's-at. Even I was affected by the heat.

We had already been stopped by other trainers twice, and Alex took care of the both with her two Pokemon, both of whom were walking beside me now.

"Where is this town?" I heard the Eevee, Melody, ask. I turned to look at her. She was practically against the ground, sweat glistening on her brown fur. She looked much hotter than what it actually was out.

"Still another day or so walk from where we are." I told her.

She seemed to droop down even lower than she was before as she replied. "Why does this place have to stretch on forever? Why didn't we just wait for the night?"

The Surskit answered her this time. "Believe it or not, it usually gets hotter at night." Melody sighed, when the Surskit finished telling her that. "Also, this path has almost no trees, so people take the forests to the east and west of here."

"Why didn't we?" Melody asked. We both shrugged, as well as a flaming mouse and water skater could.

There was a scream from somewhere off to the left of our group. Our two trainers must have heard it too, because they ran off in its direction. The three of us followed after them.

We were far off the path, close to the forest, when we found the person who screamed. It was a older man, possibly about twenty-five. He was on the ground, holding his leg, with a Lotad sitting beside him.

"Are you alright?" Alex asked as she bent down to help the man up. She grabbed him by one of his arms, and slung it around her neck. James did likewise with the mans other arm, and together they lifted him up.

He winced as the two trainers got him up. He then thanked the two of them. "Thank you." He paused for a moment, then nodded. "Would the two of you mind carrying me to my cabin? It's only a few minutes thata way." He nodded in a direction inside the forest we just recently left.

James and Alex looked at each other, and James shrugged. "Sure." He started in the direction the man had nodded, Alex and the three of us Pokemon trailing behind. "Just a few minutes walk, you said?"

I then noticed that the Lotad and disappeared. I looked around for it, and then spotted it walking in front of the man, leading the way. I really didn't think much about it. I probably should have.


Now I'm just as confused as you are, but hopefully this will start to make sense soon. Otherwise It'll be 100 chapters before we get to Oldale.
