That was it; that girl looked exactly like her. That's all N could do as he watched the girl bypassing him, heading off towards the Pokémon League. She had collected all eight Gym Badges, proven herself against Team Plasma, and yet… Her beaming, young face reminded him of the young woman whom he met a few years ago. The young woman whom had clashed her ideals against his own; the two heroes fought against one another, the legendary dragon Pokémon on their sides. N had just given this girl the Hidden Machine Waterfall, in order for her to access further areas. He knew she had to accomplish her goal in becoming the Champion.

Just like…her.

It was so sudden, the moment he had seen her the first time. She was stunning, but trembling in fear. She had nearly been killed by someone he had known, and N was glad he came to her aid, thanks to Zekrom's ability. The appearance of this young brunette caused him to ponder his confused and twisted emotions. He questioned himself for his actions, wondering if leaving the Unova region was the right thing to do. He had left behind many of his Pokémon, and a beginning relationship of friendship. It occurred to him that he had yet to ask of the girl's name. It was far too late; she was already gone.

Sighing, N glanced up, looking longingly into the sky above, the sun still beaming brightly. "…How the land has changed since we've last been here hasn't it?" He asked, watching the Deep Black dragon Pokémon nearby. Zekrom merely growled as his answer, which N appeared to have understood. The greenet shook his head, now turning to the direction of whence the girl had gone off. After a moment of silence, N began to speak.

"Zekrom… That girl, reminded me of the friend we met a few years ago… Touko."

The dragon narrowed his red eyes in his master's direction, seeming to shrug and nod in agreement. It had been a long time since he himself had seen the aforementioned female. In fact, since he and N had left, he felt a rather detachment issue going on, due to Reshiram being "missing". He had a feeling his opposite was far, far away along with his own master. N noticed the rather sad tone of growls coming from Zekrom, frowning upon hearing them. "Are you sad, my friend?" the Plasma King asks quietly.

Zekrom nods simply, not denying the fact he missed his opposite. While they fought for different sides, for their masters, for their chosen Heroes, the empty feeling plunged deeper the further apart they were. Almost like a large hole in a wall. Again, N shakes his head, sighing heavily once more as he found himself leaning against a nearby tree along the path leading to Victory Road. "We'll meet again, girl. I know it. I will lead you to me and figure you out."

"Come, Zekrom. There is…something we must do." N says, climbing on the giant, black Pokémon's back. Zekrom rose to the sky, powering up his engine-like tail and shooting off into the distance. His ruby colored eyes found his master's soft, blue ones, noting on their destination. N faintly smiled, patting the Deep Black's head. "Don't worry, my friend. I know exactly what I'm doing. Patience, is all I ask for."


Hiougi City.

Mei, the newest League Champion returned to her hometown, declining the offer given to her to stay as the Champion. Nope; she would rather travel the rest of Unova to fill her Pokédex, train her Pokémon, and explore what the world has to offer. She was just fourteen years old, after all. With the ordeal of Team Plasma out of the way, the brunette could continue on her own way. The attack to her life a few weeks ago stunned her to shatter on the spot. If it had not been for her Lucario and that strange man with green hair to save her, she would have been dead.

For now, she wanted to relax at home, in her soft, comforting bed with her Pokémon by her side. "All right, guys. You all deserve a rest." Mei said as she took six Pokéballs from her bag, allowing them to be released. Popping out of the containments were an Arcanine, Serperior, Lucario, two Sandslash, and a Skarmory. Mei frowned upon seeing two Sandslash, but nonetheless smiled at each one of them. "You all worked so hard with me to get us this far. I know there's a long road ahead of us, but we'll be sure to complete the regional Unova Pokédex, right?"

The six Pokémon nodded in agreement, all grinning back, somehow, at their trainer. Mei clasped her hands together, laughing cheerily. "Great! For now, let's just rest and relax. There's no rush to this matter." Thankful and grateful to her words, the Pokémon began to search for decent places to sleep for the night. They had been traveling for days to get back to Hiougi City, and this was well-earned rest for them. Serperior found herself curling up near the bedside's right, Arcanine lied down before the bed, fluffing her fur to straighten out some. Sandslash stretched her body before curling up herself on the pink rug near the computer, while the Lucario and other Sandslash sat down against the nearest wall, being awfully close. Skarmory was let outside to perch on the roof, not finding the inside of the room comfortable and rather "clogged" up.

While the Pokémon were settling down in their resting places, Mei had gone to shower.

Unbeknown to her and her Pokémon, a figure was carefully watching the house from the outside. The city was dark, except for the street lights and the lights in the Pokémon Center as well as the school nearby it. The figure was pondering its chin, pale, blue eyes focusing intently on the girl's window. The blinds were partially open, allowing the figure to see through barely. Skarmory blinked her eyes, narrowing them the instant she felt someone was watching her, or close to it. Her wings sharpened up just in case something stupid wanted to interfere or get close to the house.

Inside, Mei exited the shower after ten minutes of being in there, coming into her room refreshed and wearing a long, light pink and white colored pajama-dress. Her skin was soft and clean, and her long, brown hair swayed when she randomly twirled. She had long since taken it out of the twin bun style to wash it whilst being in the shower. "That was so refreshing. It felt so long since I had a decent shower. The ones in the Pokémon Centers are okay, but not as great as being home." The brunette admitted. Her team patiently nodded, waiting for the light in her bedroom to go out. "Tomorrow, we'll go see Hyu before leaving for Castelia City." She told her Pokémon as she waltzed over to her bedroom light to turn it off.

"He said something about Team Plasma. Poor guy, though… He's been through a lot, so maybe he needs help with something." Mei finished, speaking the last part aloud as part of her thoughts. The light went out finally, and the girl snuggled into her bed after carefully stepping over her tired friends. With a long yawn, Mei stared into the darkness, arms underneath her pillow and the position to get comfortable already in place. It was easy to tell she wasn't ready to sleep just yet. "So much has happened over the course of this year… Traveling Unova and collecting the badges, raising a team of Pokémon—I suppose this is how all trainers are like when they want to accomplish their goals." She said softly to herself. "…I wonder who that guy was who saved me. This… "N". Is that really his name? Who would name their child that? And what was that large, black Pokémon he had with him?"

Mei turned over, sighing as she rested her head on her pillow. "…I don't know what happened back there, but I… just froze. Hm, maybe we should try and seek him out tomorrow as well. I mean, I do owe him my life. It would only seem fair…" As she continued her soft ramblings, the chill of the night's breeze entered into the room, sweeping around and felt lulling like a sweet song. The brunette's eyelids grew heavy, her yawning increased until she finally gave in to sleep. "Yes… Tomorrow will be the day we find this N…"

. . .

"…Zekrom. I believe we've seen enough for tonight. Let us return and prepare."
