The morning rose without another thought. By now, it was 6:28 AM. Neither Runo or Lucario was awake. Periodically, Lucario's ear would twitch. Everything was still and nice. A minute passed by. Then 10, another hour passed, then another 2 hours passed. All was peaceful. Until, a certain sister woke up and wondered where her breakfast was. Ignoring the sign where it said, "Knock before you enter." Lunay walked in and saw Runo laying on Lucario. At first, she didn't notice but as soon as she saw.. Immediate photos were taken. Unknowing the truth, she took pictures and sent it to Blue. She knew he hated furries and she didn't know, he already knew of it. Immediately, Blue was still asleep so he did not look at them yet. She then knew her work was done and left. Deciding to have cereal for breakfast. Since the door shut, Lucario woke up, the Aura, Lunay left when she was inside the room woke him up. Soon, Lucario shook Runo awake.

"Runo.." Lucario said then yawned, "Someone- came inside the room and uhh.. Think saw us? Left soon afterwards.."

"I- think I know who it was.. But.. it's weird.. she normally wakes up around 11.. Knowing her, she probably took photos.." Runo explained, still groggy from waking up. "We gotta delete those photos.. before she sends it to anyone. If she sends it, my entire social life is in danger, or you get taken by the government. 'For testing.' Come on, let's go.." Runo says quickly. You have a move that won't hurt but be more like Sand Attack…?"

"No, I don't, my moves are, Aura Sphere, Close Combat, Meteor Mash, Dragon Pulse. None of which would help, because I'm assuming we aren't trying to make her faint." Lucario said

"I- I think those moves would probably kill her. We aren't as strong as you are or any other Pokémon for that matter.. Just try to pin her down if she doesn't comply." Runo said "You can read my mind right? So, just use that as a signal for whatever."

"Alright! Let's stop her before your social life and my life gets destroyed!" Lucario exclaims telepathically.

As they run down the stairs and into the kitchen they see Lunay sitting at the table, eating her cereal, Runo confronts her, "You're gonna hafta delete those photos." Runo exclaimed in a calm manner, while also sounding cool.

"No, I won't.. Blue's gonna be so mad at you for sleeping with a furry! Hahaha! Poggies.." Lunay said slyly.

"H- HOW DARE YOU! USE THAT OUTDATED MEME IN MY FACE!" Runo yelled in an angry tone. "Y-you! Gimme that!"

Both Lunay and Runo wrestled for control of the device. Lucario just standing there, suddenly realizing that he needs to do something. He jumps in-between both of them and holds down Lunay. While, Runo accesses the device using a passcode that he learnt when his sister said it out loud to a friend. 6497 was the code. Deleting all references to the photos was the easy part.

"Let me go! You furry! Urgh! I'm- telling mom and dad what you guys are doing to me!" Lunay threatened in a nearly crying voice.

"Oh really now..? Wrong answer, try again!" Lucario joked through telepathy and said it to where Lunay could hear. "You will not remember anything from this interaction!"

Through the power of Aura, Lucario made it to where Lunay would not remember anything from the interaction. She would also fall asleep due to it. Runo finished with the iPad by adding a bug to the Camera app to where it just would not work. FaceTime still worked fine though.

"Thanks Lucario! I- didn't know you could do that! Ah- eh.. I'm all good.. Her nails do damage, maybe she can use Scratch.." Runo joked "Let's put her back into her room, make her think she woke up at the usual time she does.

They soon reach upstairs and set her on top of the bed. Right after, Runo went to take a shower with a fresh pair of clothes with him. The clothes consisted of gray shorts and a t-shirt that said "really bro? you ain't lying?" Lucario hanged out in Runo's bedroom just looking at stuff and pushing random buttons on the keyboard that just wakes up the computer then becoming spooked that he did something, stopped for a moment, which allowed the computer to go back to sleep. Only for it to happen all over again. As soon as Runo was done showering, he came back to his room as he saw Lunay inside the room? Lucario seemed to be having a hard time as he was clinging to the ceiling as to not be seen.

"Whatcha doin' in my bedroom?" Runo asked as he got out of the bathroom.

"He- Um, nothing!" Lunay said quickly, surprised by the sudden voice.

"Well then, get out. I don't enjoy you being here." Runo angrily forced her out. "Also, what are you doing up so early, it's 10:30. You don't wake up till n' hour later."

Lunay dismissed the question by just returning to her room and locking the door. The walls were decently thick so conversation could be heard but not understood.

"Lucario, you- can come down now.. How do you even do that? Clinging to the wall like that?" Runo said relievingly

"I don't know.. It just happened I guess.. Heh, um also, I don't know, but she was looking for some currency called dollars? Don't know what that is, but guessing it's like Pokécurren." Lucario said confused on to what dollars are.

"Oh, come on! She's tryna steal from me, now too! I've noticed some money disappearing.. Really, oh, come on!" Runo exclaimed sadly and angrily

"Well, then, let's get it back! Don't worry, I'll help you out!" Lucario said trying to cheer him up while also being helpful.

"It's no point now, we'll just forget about it. We'll just forget about it." Runo said obviously pissed that he had been saving for so long for something he wanted at the time, but it still felt so far as he was losing money. "To lighten the mood, let's uh, play some games. I wanna show you some games. Also, the Pokémon games might help you show me things that-"

"Oh, don't worry about that. Using Aura, I can just put stuff in your mind, like how I do with telepathy! Anyway, what do you mean by Pokémon games?" Lucario asked as he nearly tripped and somehow maintained his balance.

"Uhm, it's a game that you play on this," Runo showed the computer "We can play games on here.. I can grab my DS and we can play Pokémon Platinum. I'll show you how to play." Runo exclaimed as his mood improved through talking about retro games.

"Sure!-" Lucario happily said before Runo said

"Or would you rather Pokémon Mystery Dungeon? The Explorers of Sky one." Runo chirped as he fell even more into the rhythm of which he created to introduce people to retro games. It was quite the hobby for him, but if everyone he knew, knew of retro titles, he couldn't really preach about it. So, it's the first time he's done it in quite a while.

Being quite familiar with the term, "Mystery Dungeon" Lucario decided to choose that one to start playing. After flipping the Nintendo DSi open, Runo showed Lucario the D-Pad, buttons, and touch screen. Soon, a title called Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky appears on the main menu. Then, Lucario uses his stylus pen and opens it. A Nintendo DSi splash screen appears then some loud drums start playing and then a leitmotif begins that would represent the entire game. A Sky-Form Shaymin flys across the screen soon after.

"Wh- why is this so familiar? I've had to have heard this before…" Silence fell between the two of them as the DS continued to play the music that Lucario seemed to have heard before. "It's not the exact same, but I know the melody. I have to have known it." Lucario telepathically said without realizing.. Until a flashback appeared, unknowingly shared it with Runo, so they both saw it.

A Lucario was put forcefully onto a pedestal, by two other Lucarios. A female Lucario comes up to the Lucario who was put onto the pedestal, and says through a Pokémon language, "I-i'm sorry, it has to be this way.. We need you to survive.. It's- the only way, Lu.."

The Lucario was stuck to his position of the pedestal.. "Please! I need to help, they depend on me to save them from it! Let me out!" The Lucario begged. Soon, tears appeared.. "Please…"

The female Lucario exclaims, "I know, I'm sorry! I- Start the machine.." The other Lucarios prepare the machine to activate. The female Lucario pulls out a flute and begins to play, the song matching the melody seen in the game. This seems to power the machine and it makes the Lucario stuck to the machine, glow blue, with his fierce red eyes piercing the glow.

"Ahhhh!" The Lucario yelled in severe pain. The glowing blue, glowing darker, and darker. His eyes fading from it's superiority. The song overpowering the walls. A hole was being poked out of the air. A small Ultra Wormhole, it seemed to just get about Lucario's size and it dragged him in. Soon, closing along with flashback..

"T-that's why I- am here.. I-I can't feel their auras anymore, I felt it, their auras, there.. gone.. I felt it the first day I was here.. Now.. they- THEY'RE GONE! I- couldn't save any of them. Not one single one.. But- what did I need to save them from.." Lucario shuddered and whimpered slightly as the excitement from playing the game dwindled immensely. His tail slowing to a critical stop. Lucario was filled with remorse and confusion. Even Runo could tell but not through the usual means through body language and speech. He could feel the bond they had even though they just met. This bond must have allowed him to feel Lucario's exact worries and struggle to save their family and friends, especially his people. That must have been why he saw that vision and he seemed that Lucario knew.

"Lucario… I- I'm sorry. I know out of anyone in the universe, I shouldn't be saying anything, but I'm sorry that this happened.." Runo said in a empathic tone.

"It's- okay. I- You- and Blue are the only ones I can trust now. The only ones who've helped me and taught me already so much about the world. Thank you, Runo.." Lucario sighed before-

Runo came in and gave Lucario a hug, soon Lucario hugged back as Runo felt as Lucario's aura changed to being overcome with sadness and gratitude. "I promise you, Blue and I will help you in anyway we can! Speaking of which, since the song was familiar to you, maybe playing the game could help with finding out how to get you back to your world.. or even save it from whatever danger it's facing."

"Thanks Runo.. It- means a lot," Lucario said telepathically, while starting to feel better. "Alright, let's finally start the game.. Wait, if this song was to bring back memories.. Perhaps, the rest of the game or other parts of your world might help bring back what happened to my world.."

"If you need to return to your world immediately, maybe just looking up a video to watch the game being played might be better as it can show everything without you having to learn how to play.. Not saying that wouldn't be able to learn well, but it seems we are on a time crunch." Runo offered

"I think that would be best.. Okay, let's start it up," Lucario says eagerly awaiting the video.

"Alright, a all cutscenes video, I haven't seen one of those in like ages.. Can't go atleast two years without one. Well, Lucario, it's gonna be like 1-2 hours before this is finished. Let's start.." Runo explained and they began watching. The main characters, go on expeditions to Mystery Dungeons, save people, and also eventually save the world from a crazed Dialga. Eventually getting help from Palkia to stop the person behind Dialga's crazed state. Nothing. Nothing is familiar to Lucario, besides one person. Wigglytuff.

"Nothing really comes to mind when watching it.. Hm.. Actually, there is one person who is familiar to me.. It's uh, Wigglytuff.. I've met him on occasion, he acts just like the game.. Hmm… That's really all.." Lucario explains as he tries to recoup the times he has met him..

"Gotcha.." Runo says in response to Lucario

"Maybe we ask Blue, you said he has a lot of methods to do practically anything." Lucario telepathically shared with Runo

"Yeah, Blue would know.. Wait, about what again?" Runo said seemingly forgot what they were talking about because he was thinking about something.

"About, uhh.. Good question.. A way for me to go back home..?" Lucario said unsure if it was about what he was talking about.

"Ight, bet.." Runo said, switching to another window. Soon, appearing in the DMs of Blue's.
