When the light dissipated Lincoln, Ingo and lady sneasler found themselves in a tunnel

"we must be in the subway tunnels." Ingo said "Luckily for us even when I had amnesia I knew these tunnels like the back of my hand."

"I guess that makes it easier." Lincoln said

"(agreed.)" said lady sneasler

"Now lets hurry before a train shows up!" Ingo said as they began to make their way to the station

when they got to the station, it was empty, presumably closed

"let's check the doors." Lincoln suggested

unfortunately the doors were locked from the outside

"drat, how are gonna leave? Are we gonna have to wait till morning?" Lincoln asked

"nope." Ingo said "because I know someone who's always here."

meanwhile

depot agent Jackie was sitting in his office eating a pizza which he bought before the subway closed for the day

he never leaves the subway due to his love of trains eclipsing even that of emmet's and ingo's love for them which is impressive

he had converted his office into a makeshift apartment so he could always be in the subway, he had Just about everything, he even had blinds!

"man I miss boss Ingo." Jackie said to himself "this place has gotten a little dull without him."

He took another bite of pizza when suddenly he had the feeling that he was being watched

he turned to the window where he saw a pair of silver eyes staring at him though the opened blinds

"WHAT THE FUCK?!?" Jackie yelled almost choking on the pizza while he fell out of his chair

Ingo let out a small chuckle at this

Jackie ran out of the office and turned towards Ingo expecting to see a prankster or someone else not "been missing for 2 years supposedly dead subway boss Ingo FUCKING nobori!"

"b-boss Ingo?" Jackie stammered "is that you? Or am I hallucinating from lack of sunlight?"

"Jackie I thought I told you to get out every once in a while." Ingo said while sighing

"I-It is you!" Jackie exclaimed "boss ingo you're alive!"

Jackie was about to hug him when he noticed Lincoln and lady sneasler

"two questions one who's the kid? And two why does your sneasel look like they would shove me in a locker and call me a nerd?" Jackie asked "actually 3 because WHERE WERE YOU?!??"

"one he's my son. two she's not a sneasel she's a sneasler and 3 I was 400 years in the past, in ancient sinnoh with amnesia." Ingo stated if it were the most natural thing In the world.

"oh I guess that makes sense-" Jackie began before he fully processed it "wait son?, Sneasler?, Past?!, Sinnoh?!? AMNESIA?!??!"

"that is correct yes." Ingo said

"y-you weren't gone that long!" Jackie said "and I thought you didn't feel attraction to anyone?!?"

"I don't." Ingo said

"then how?" Jackie asked confused

"I'm adopted." Lincoln said "and I also have amnesia."

"that's concerning that you also have amnesia." Jackie said to Lincoln before turning to Ingo "wait if you have amnesia then how did you know my name?"

"a good chunk of memory was restored at my previous station." Ingo said "moving on we need your help leaving the battle subway."

"of course!" Jackie said while doing a salute "I get on that right away!"

"while you do that I need to grab my spare house key from me and emmet's office." Ingo said

"right!" Jackie said as he went into his office to grab the key to the front door

after a few minutes Jackie got the door open

"boss Ingo I look forward to working with you once more." Jackie said

"I do too Jackie." Ingo said

"and I look forward to challenging this place one day." Lincoln said "and I'm probably gonna work here too."

"well I hope to see you soon ." Jackie said

and with that Ingo, Lincoln and lady sneasler headed to Ingo's and emmet's apartment.

whey they got there Ingo unlocked the door...

...and was immediately tackled by chandelure

"(Ingo! Ingo! You're back!!)" chandelure said

"I'm back chandelure and I take it you miss me?" Ingo said

"(miss you? That's an understatement.)" chandelure said before turning to Lincoln and lady sneasler "(who are these?)"

ingo noticed chandelure's confusion and answered " this my son Lincoln." He said gesturing to Lincoln "and this is lady sneasler." Ingo said, now gesturing to lady sneasler "I wouldn't be alive if it weren't for her."

"(wait SON?!??)" chandelure asked

"why does everyone react like that?" Lincoln asked himself

chandelure turned to lady sneasler and said "(I would like to thank you for insuring my friends safe return.)"

"(its nothing really, he's basically one of my kits.)" lady sneasler said

"chandelure why are you up? It's verrrry late." A voice said from inside "also I thought I locked the door-" the owner of the voice cut himself off

in the living room stood a man almost Identical to Ingo only missing his goatee and had a smile on his face

this was emmet

"I-Ingo is that you?" Emmet asked

"yes emmet it's me." Ingo said as he walked in the house with everyone else behind him

"IIIINNNGOOO!!" Emmet said as he hugged his twin while crying "you're ok! Everyone thought you were dead, and-"

"shhh emmet I'm here." Ingo said trying to calm his brother down

"so this is uncle emmet. I can see why dad talked so highly of you!" Lincoln said

emmet stopped crying and turned to where Lincoln's voice was coming from

"Ingo..." emmet began

"yes emmet?" Ingo said knowing emmet would have this reaction "what's wrong?"

"why did this boy just call me uncle?" Emmet said

"well he's my son." Ingo said

"is this a joke? Because there is no way that you got laid." Emmet said

"well there was that poll." Ingo teased

"OH MY GOD JUST LET ME WIN PLEASE!" Emmet yelled

"hey it's not fault they love my face." Ingo continued

"ONE WE HAVE THE SAME FACE AND TWO YOU DONT EVEN LIKE INTERCOURSE!" Emmet yelled

"in all seriousness though he's my adopted son, his name is Lincoln." Ingo explained

"hi uncle emmet!" Lincoln greeted " it's very nice to meet you."

"well it's very nice to meet you too." Emmet said before noticing sneasler

"I am emmet! that is a verrry big sneasel." Emmet said

"she is not a sneasel she is a sneasler an evolution of hisuian sneasel." Ingo explains

"huh never heard of it." Emmet said

"she is the reason I'm alive today." Ingo said

emmet gasped before turning to lady sneasler "thank you for saving my brother." Said emmet

lady sneasler looked between Ingo and emmet a couple of times before hugging emmet and saying "(NEW KIT!)"

then lady sneaslers basket began to shake a little like something is inside

"uhh lady sneasler what's in your basket?" Lincoln asks

lady sneasler opened the lid and out popped 4 little sneasels

"(woah this place is so cool mama!)" one of the sneasel said

"aww baby sneasels!" Lincoln said

"(Linky!)" one of the younger sneasels said to Lincoln

(for someone reason he felt like something was missing whenever someone called him that.)

"aww how cute!" Emmet said as he picked one up

"be careful emmet they are poison types." Ingo said "they don't have very good control over their poison."

"Ingo..." emmet said

ingo realized he messed up "yes?" He said

"have you been getting poisoned for the past 2 years?!" Emmet said

"well not really it doesn't have effect on us these days." Lincoln said before immediately realizing his mistake

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN "THESE DAYS?!??" Emmet yelled

(thank sinnoh for sound proofing.) Ingo thought to himself

after emmet calmed down a little it was now time for some explanations

"so what happened Ingo?" Emmet asked "where did you go? Why didn't you come back until now? How did you meet Lincoln?"

"luckily for us all those questions are connected so I can answer these all quickly and then we can go to bed." Ingo said "what happened was someone was trying to bring forth arecus by making a rift 400 years ago in ancient sinnoh during this me and Lincoln were brought there one year apart during which i was taken in and became the warden to lady sneasler."

" I see you couldn't come back because you didn't have a way back." Emmet said

" not only that I couldn't remember where I had came from because I had amnesia." Ingo said "Lincoln still has amnesia as well."

"so whoever caused it took you memories as well?" Emmet said "I am emmet and I am verrrry pissed off."

"language." Ingo said

"anyway how did you meet Lincoln?" Emmet asked

"lady Sneasler brought him to me when he first landed." Ingo said "and she told me to adopt him."

"does being a warden mean you can understand her."

"no Lincoln can understand all pokemon." Ingo explained

emmet's eyes widen in shock "YOU CAN SPEAK TO POKÉMON?!??" He yelled

"uh yes?" Lincoln said

"just like N the person who-"

"WHY WONT YOU LET ME FORGET THAT POLL?!?" Emmet yelled

"it was thanks to a girl named akari who was brought there to fix the rift that helped me remember using that poll." Ingo said

"I see." Emmet said "well tomorrow we will introduce Lincoln to your team and meet your and Lincoln's new Pokemon."

"alright where will I be sleeping?" Lincoln asked

"we have a spare room." Emmet said before turning to Ingo "one more thing though."

"what?" Ingo asked

"shave the beard." Emmet stated

"no." Ingo said

"you're shaving it before we go into work again!" Emmet said

"we will see about that." Ingo said

and with that they all headed to bed

the next day

when Lincoln woke up he heard bickering

"Ingo shave it!" Emmet said

"no." Ingo said

"hey uncle emmet, hey dad." Lincoln said as he left the spare room

"good morning Lincoln." Ingo said

"nephew tell your father to shave his beard." Emmet said

"no." Lincoln said

"I am emmet I have been betrayed." Emmet said

then suddenly elesa walked in

"hey emmet." She said without thinking "hey Ingo, hey kid I don't know."

"hello!" Emmet said

"greetings elsea!" Ingo said

"hi aunt elesa!" Lincoln greeted

elesa took 3 seconds to process it before screaming "WHAT?!??"
