The professor was leaning against a tree holding his face crying 'im sorry john Mary i lied' zack was just speechless because of every thing he just heard
zack then walked over to the professor and grabbed his lab coat 'do you know where they were going!' 'no zack im sorry' zack was gonna punch the professor in the face but stopped himself and let go of the professor and walked back to town 'zack wait' zack didn't respond and kept walking he eventually made it back to town and walked down the path to his old house on the way he just stopped walking and stood there doing nothing until he shed a tear and then some more he was crying 'there alive' 'there alive' he just stood there crying tears of joy he then began running home meanwhile Maya entered her old room in her parents house "wow i has been so long since i have been in here" she pulled out Riley's poke ball and threw it into the air Riley appeared but he was sleeping so Maya picked him up and set him on the end of her bed then she crawled into bed and fell asleep instantly but not before thinking about zack "he just out of the blue kissed me well we did say we loved each other but why do i feel weird about that kiss I'll just ask him about it tomorrow" she then drifted into a deep sleep meanwhile zack had made it to his house just by looking at the front he could tell it was really dusty like no one ever knew it was here 'wow look's like im gonna have to clean up a bit here' he opened the door to see his whole house covered in dust 'man really i hope there still power' he flipped the light switch and the light turned on 'good now the water' he walked to the kitchen and turned on the sink and still had water running through it 'good every thing is still working' zack walked to his bedroom and opened the door to see his bed was messy 'man i don't care im tired' he hopped onto his bed to see something come out from underneath it made him jump a little it was a looked like a raccoon but different it was a zigzagoon 'now how did you get here' zack looked under his bed to see a bunch of little one's under there 'oh i see you have kids well' zack got off his bed and walked to the door 'you can stay in here I'll sleep on the couch' zack shut the door behind him and hopped on the couch making dust go around he didn't care he was too tired too but before he fell asleep he thought about his parents "hmm they left the region so they probably went to kanto johto or unova region's well only on thing to do" after that zack closed his eye's and fell asleep
