Rayquaza's scales... The days felt like they flew by faster than the legendary Shadow Snivy's epic quest of fighting off Nystl's Puppeteers of Chaos!
...it's an old fairy tale my Aunt Aura used to tell me.
Ahem, anyway... It's really...nice to see my friends and I all gathered up and talking and smiling like this.
...it's just sad that this will be the last time we're all gathered like this. Jay's leaving soon, and that'll leave a giant hole in our hearts, I'm sure.
But, I am sure it'll heal in time. This is goodbye. A good kind of goodbye. Unlike how I left my family back home. With good reason.
Hm... I wonder how she's doing right now. She did fight Lithe when we were down, if what Jay said was true.
Eh, I shouldn't worry about it too much.
Anyway, I'm honestly going to miss Jay when he goes.
Hm... Now that I think about it, have I actually accepted the idea of him actually being a human who just borrowed an Eevee's body? I still find it quite hard to believe, but it does look like that he had really told us the truth. The legendaries seem to believe his claims, so I suppose that I should as well.
Heh... Heheh... I can't believe that I actually befriended a human. I don't have anything against humans, but I just really never thought that I would become best friends with one. I wonder what would have happened if Jay was still a human when he got here. Would he had captured me and force me to battle his battles so he could be the very best in the world?
Hahah, now there's a really funny thought. In some alternate reality, I'd even bet that Jay would choose to wear red. Hm... Why red? Meh, details aren't important.
Vixie is really happy to be talking with Jay again.
...for the last time...
I frowned. No. This is a good kind of goodbye. Of course, she'll also be very sad when he leaves, but she'll move on. She won't forget him, but she will move on. And I'll be there to make sure that she does. Heck, Saur and Fay will also be there to help her. We're all friends here, and we help each other! Jay's a friend as well, and we helped him get back to his world. Afterwards, we'll help each other to recover.
...but what of Jay? Who would help him?
...no. Jay will be fine. He saved us many times already. Well, maybe just three times, or two, but that's more than enough for me to think of him as a very strong friend. I don't choose weaklings to be my best friend, you know! So there's no doubt in my mind that Jay wouldn't recover after he gets back home.
I took a breath, and smiled as I exhaled. "Alright, everyone," I announced, earning my friends' attentions. "Let's give Jay and Vixie some space for them to talk."
"Awww...!" Fay pouted. "But Jay was about to tell me what grilled cheese is!"
"I told you, Fay!" Jay's voice echoed from the glowy blue orb. "It's just cheese, but grilled, I think... I never actually had one before!"
"B-but I don't know what 'grilled' means!"
I chuckled as Saur and I pulled her away from the couple. "We'll find out what that is later. We're still gonna have adventures after we're done here, remember?"
