Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

The scene changed, and Aislo and his group had arrived at an open space. The earth-yellow ground looked lifeless, forming a sharp contrast with the previous sea of ​​flowers.

"Is it right here?" Aislo came to the highest point of a small hill and observed the surrounding terrain.

Flat and desolate, this is the only evaluation that Aislo has for this place.

Just then, a breeze blew, blowing up the corners of the boy's clothes, and at the same time hiding the footprints they left along the way.

"Well, we're almost close to the townspeople..." Mary looked back along the way she came. At this moment, she could no longer see any trace of the Pokémon Center, so even if something unexpected happened, she wouldn't have to worry about affecting the unconscious townspeople.

"How are you guys doing?" After retracting his gaze, Aislo asked Yaru, who was walking at the end of the three. After all, the other party had used waveguides to explore the town on a large scale just like him not long ago.

……

At the same time, on the other side.

[That's it? You're willing to sacrifice your lives for a group of random people?] Darkrai floated quietly behind Eslo and the other two. He looked down at Pikachu, who was walking slowly beside him, with a puzzled look in his eyes.

[Hmm.] The tender voice could not conceal the determination contained in it. Pikachu's eyes were firm, as if the elf who would soon carry out this fatal mission was not him. Then, as if to change the subject, the little guy suddenly asked curiously, [Mr. Darkrai, it is said that you are the guardian of dreams. Is this true?]

[Darkrai is not the only one, and I am no longer the "Guardian of Dreams."] Darkrai's voice was as hoarse as ever, and this was considered an answer to Pikachu's question.

[Eh? ... Then you must have found something more worthy of your protection, right?] Pikachu's eyes curved into crescents, making him look even more adorable. [Like you, for us and even all wave messengers, whether it is humans or Pokémon, whether they are familiar or not, they are all things we are determined to protect.]

After he finished speaking, Pikachu stopped talking. He just looked quietly at his partner in front of him, and then looked at the vast yellow sky, as if he was saying his final goodbye.

[Worthy of protecting...] Darkrai raised his palm and slowly clenched his fist in front of his chest.

Poplar Town, Pokémon Garden, Alicia, and...

Darkrai raised his head and looked not far away.

【I see. 】

……

"I understand." Aislo nodded slightly, and then stopped talking, as if he was afraid of disturbing Yaru's recovery.

Seeing the boy and girl with gloomy faces, Yalu suddenly laughed, "Hey, what's wrong with you? You don't look very happy, especially you, Aisiluo. In my impression, you like to laugh."

"I..." Aislo opened his mouth, but no words came out.

"Yaru... do you really have to do this?" Mary's voice gradually became smaller and she did not say anything about wanting to wait any longer. Even though she did not want to face it, she had to admit that this was the only way at the moment.

A week is neither short nor long. For them now, every minute and every second is extremely precious. Time... can they really be allowed to waste it in meaningless waiting?

"Are you depressed because of me? I don't need this." Yaru smiled helplessly and stood up immediately.

"Come on, bump fists with me." Yaru clenched his fists and stretched them out, looking calmly at the two people in front of him, or rather, his juniors.

Aislo and Mary looked at each other. Although they were not sure what the other wanted to do, they still stretched out their hands and made fists to touch each other.

"The power of waveguide exists in my heart."

A faint murmur reached Eslo's ears. Before the boy could think about it, he felt an incomparably powerful wave. The wave was as boundless as the ocean, but strangely calm and gentle. No matter how the outside world changed, it could not cause the slightest ripples.

The waveguide can reflect the owner's current state of mind to a certain extent, and almost instantly, the two understood the meaning of what Yaru did.

"Do you feel it?" Yaru's gentle voice sounded, and together with the waveguide, it soothed the resentment in Aislo and Mary's hearts. "As a messenger of the waveguide, I have never been afraid of death. In fact, if I could die in the process of saving others, I would even feel happy and think that I died a worthy death. Naturally, you don't need to be depressed for me."

"Life itself is a journey full of twists and turns. Various farewells will always come as expected. You have to try to adapt to this... Besides..." Yaru suddenly laughed, "I may not die, you two idiots. It's just that there is no record of me in later generations. There are so many people like this, and I may not really face the end.

So...cheer up! Got it! "

Yaru's voice suddenly became excited, as if he was cheering for something.

"I understand!" Aislo and Mary nodded. It was not that they could not understand this. Perhaps Yaru's guidance worked, and they returned to their usual state.

Yalu nodded with satisfaction. He thought it was a good deal to exchange the possible loss of his life, Pikachu's life, and the lives of the wave messengers of an era for the destruction of the creatures of a world.

As for Aislo... Yalu looked deeply at the black-haired boy. The intuition and perception of the wave guide messenger have always been sharp, so he could naturally sense the other party's extraordinaryness.

"Well... an interesting junior." Yalu didn't think that anything would happen to Aislo, otherwise... He looked up at the sky.

No, otherwise, the god in the sky would not just sit there and watch. Judging from the attitudes of Darkrai and Lignum, Yaru believed that they could take Eslo and Mary away safely. However... in the event of a collision of universes, it was not certain what would happen to the creatures in multiple universes.

"It seems that the legendary God of Sinnoh is just a myth." Yaru thought inexplicably. He didn't think that if the God of Creation really existed, he would allow the current situation to happen.

Well, don't mention it, He actually allowed it, and could even watch the show there leisurely, under the euphemism of providing a safety net.

"Pika Pika~" [oi! Yaru, how are you guys doing over there? ] Pikachu's voice came.

"No problem!" Yaru waved to Pikachu at the bottom of the small mound.

[Okay, let's get started now.] Darkrai put Shaymi, who was in his arms, on the ground.
