Well, I put out another chapter! Hopefully this'll continue!

Disclaimer: Pokémon, along with any people, places or things from it are not mine, nor do I claim it to be. The only thing I do own is myself and the dream this all started from.

I left the Pokémon Center and walked to the west and entered a tall building beside the Department Store. This house was the Celadon Mansion. On the first floor of this mansion was an older woman with three Pokémon, a Clefairy, a Meowth, and a female Nidoran.

"Hello there, deary," the woman said to me as I entered the room that she was in, "What brings you here?"

"Nothing in particular," I lied.

"Well, that's nice, coming in here and deciding to visit with me," the woman smiled, "Would you like some tea?"

"Yes, thank you," I replied.

The woman made some tea and then handed me a cup. I pretended to take a sip from it then looked at my watch, "Oh, my, I didn't realize what time it was. I have to get going. Do you mind if I take the tea with me, since I wouldn't want it to go to waste."

"Yes, that's fine," the elderly woman replied, sounding a little disappointed that her company was leaving, "Don't worry about the cup, I have more than enough even without that one."

"Thank you again," I called as I exited the mansion.

"That was all?" Mew asked telepathically, "Really? You drag me back here to get some tea from an old woman."

"Don't worry," I said, "It'll all make sense shortly."

I walked out of Celadon, heading east. I walked through the very short Route 7 and into the gatehouse.

"Oh, that tea..." I heard off to my left as I walked through the gatehouse, "It looks awfully tasty..."

I turned to the person who had spoken a guard. He looked like the guard back in the gatehouse between Cerulean and Saffron. That guard hadn't let me through, but I knew this one would.

I walked up to the counter that he stood behind and gave him the cup, "You can have it. I'm not going to drink it."

"Huh?" the guard responded, "I can have this drink? Gee, thanks!" The man drank a sip the tea before speaking to me again, "If you want to go to Saffron City... You can go on through. I'll share this tea with the other guards!"

I thanked the guard for granting me passage through the gatehouse before exiting the gatehouse into the large city that awaited me on the other side.

I would have figured that a city this big in comparison to every other city would have many people running around it, going places, doing things. The city that awaited me was much different than that though. The only people out on the streets were people dressed in black, sporting a large red R on their shirts. Team Rocket had taken over this town.

I felt the air beside me get disturbed. I assumed that Mew was shivering again, like she did back in Celadon.

"Mew," I thought to her, "We need to get rid of Team Rocket here too. If we don't we won't ever manage to get rid of them permanently."

"I know," Mew's voice sounded shaky in my head, "But be careful."

"Of course," I replied to the nervous, invisible Pokémon, "Like I'll let another grunt capture me."

"It's not the capture I worry about," Mew replied, "It's the torture... because of me."

"Mew," I reassured her, "I know you think that the capture and torture were your fault. Honestly, I would have gone after Team Rocket even if I hadn't caught you. If they had managed to catch me without you being there they would have killed me because I was a useless person who posed a threat."

"But half of the reason they captured you was because a grunt heard us talking," Mew pointed out, "That wouldn't have happened if you were alone."

"Believe me," I continued trying to reassure my Pokémon, "I probably wouldn't have been alone. One of my friends would have been there too, and most of my friends would have talked louder than you did."

I felt Mew sigh, "I guess..."

"I know," I pressed, "I would probably be dead now if not for you. I'm positive I would have been caught with or without you, even without a friend. I wouldn't have been careful either way, and because of that something would have gone wrong. Giovanni said something about the grunts being illusions to mask Team Rocket's strength, and that I wasn't fighting their strongest forces. I'd think that the man who tortured me isn't a grunt. His uniform was different, and he seemed to have much more authority than a grunt, everything pointed toward him being of a higher rank. Who's to say that there weren't more people of higher ranks there?"

The tension in the air beside me started to fade; Mew was obviously starting to relax about the situation. I figured that now would be an okay time to bring up another touchy subject revolving around the situation.

"By the way," I started casually, making sure to try and wall my thoughts about my dreams with other things, "Have you decided if you're going to tell Arceus about our capture. I'm sure it would be fairly important information about what to expect."

The air beside me again felt tense, "No," the reply was short, and sounded almost forced.

"No, you haven't decided, or no, you aren't going to say anything?"

"I don't need to say anything," Mew said dully, "I'm sure Arceus already knows. She can sense where everyone and everything in this world is. She knows where I am, and thus can read my mind, since her powers are strong enough."

I was baffled that Arceus could read the minds of anyone, anywhere, and I also pretended to be baffled that Arceus could sense everything as to not tip Mew off that I already knew that. Did that mean Arceus could know what I was thinking about at any moment in time? I quickly got rid of that thought as it could lead back to the dreams.

"She'd have to focus on you," Mew answered my unvoiced question, "to read you r mind. She can't read everyone's mind simultaneously. She can only read one at a time by training her thoughts on one person or Pokémon."

I felt relieved for a second before I put my emotions back into check to not bring up suspicion in Mew.

"Relief?" Mew asked. Of course that one moment of relief did catch Mew's attention, "Why would you be feeling relief?"
