ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Unite: <Wait a minute...Tracer?! When did you get here?>

Woolly: <Oh, Hey everyone! We haven't seen you since we got separated in the Space Tunnels!>

Wulfric: <Well, Shaun, Nadia and Vlad, that is.>

Woolly: <Yeah...>

Reshiram: Oh, did I wake all of you? My Apologies...

Flare: -To Tracer and his team.- <How did you guys get here?>

- Somewhere -

- Still asleep, smiles -

Oh, Wolf... You're so sweet...

- Feels someone lightly shaking my shoulder -

???: <DS? It's time to wake up.>

- I move around slightly, trying to ignore it -

???: <DS! I'm sorry, but we have to get going.>

- I sigh, and open my eyes slightly, before getting up and putting my backpack on -

... Are we getting close yet?

???: <Well, we're getting closer, at least.>

... Right.

- Starts walking again -

Then why do I remember everything she did? Everything I did?

<Shaun: "... Woolly? Is that you?">

<Vlad: "OH! You're all okay! We were so worried about you!">

<Milo: "Wait... How did you guys get here?">

<Nathan: "... I'm so lost...">

<Kit: "... What's going on, Chain of Spades?">

<Kat: "These are some Pokemon that we know from the other timeline...">

<Kammy: "... Were they related to those other trainers that we met back at headquarters?">

<Kat: "Huh?">

<Iron Marrow: "The rube wasn't there for that, turtle.">

<Kammy: "Oh...">

-Noticing Hydreigon-

-Thinking-

<Nadia: "...">

<Toothless: "Oh come on, what are the odds? She wasn't even near you when all of this happened!">

<Nadia: "Fair enough... But with my luck, she'll be just like her...">

<Nadia: "... Who are the Hydreigon and the Scolipede with you?">

Um...no idea really. I remember my life in this timeline too, and I'm assuming everyone else does as well.

But it doesn't matter if you remember it! That was a different person! Different things happened to them in their life, and they were different for it! You can't blame yourself for their actions!

-My Pokemon give each other awkward looks upon hearing Nadia's question.-

Treeo: <Well, the Scolipede is mine. But the Hydregion...Er...>

Woolly: <Er...>

Unite: <Um...>

Flare: <Erm...>

Wulfric: -Says nothing.-

Harriet: -Shrugs.-

Reshiram: -To Tracer.- Oh! Weren't you that trainer we met in Fiore?

Then why do I still see them? The thousands of people and Pokémon that have been hurt because of me? Why do I still see their blood on my hands?

Hydreigon: -Looks over at Nadia- <Why do you look so familiar an->

-Screeches in pain from her memories returning to her-

...I don't know. But I do know nothing that happened more than two weeks ago really happened.

Unite: <OH, ARCEUS!!!>

Woolly: <OH NO!!!>

Scolipede: <YIKES! Why is she doing that?!>

Treeo: <Long story, buddy!>

Wulfric: <But it isn't good! It isn't good AT ALL!>

-Felis walks past-

Felis: <Even if that were true, in those two weeks she's forced the resistance into hiding, taken over Nimbasa City, and abandoned all of her soldiers to the mercy of Napoleon's forces. I think it's a little late for you to grow a conscience, girl.>

It's all true...I did do all of those things.

-Thinking-

<Nadia: "You have got to be kidding me! WHY IS SHE HERE?!">

<Nadia: "... She's Tagg's, isn't she?">

-To Reshiram-

"I was one of them... I was the one spazzing out with the camcorder..."

-Aside-

-Teala and a small group of other guards from the crowd draw near-

<Teala: "C-Could you do us a favor?">

"Why, what's wrong?"

<Nervous!Druddigon: "I-It's just that...">

<Nervous!Golett #1: Our shifts failed Reshiram so badly..."

<Nervous!Mienfoo: "M-My shift's leader was directly in-involved in the loss of her and her counterpart's v-vessels...">

<Nervous!Golett #2: "W-We wanted to seek forgiveness, but she p-probably wouldn't want to acknowledge our existence...">

<Nervous!Druddigon: "A-And she seems to be willing to talk to you...">

"What are you talking abou- Oh. Right... Your shifts were the ones that were on-duty when Reshiram's stone was stolen..."

-In a small voice-

<Teala: "Yes.">

-Hears Hydreigon shriek in pain-

<Guy: "... What.">

<Kit: "Wait, she got her memories back too?">

<Kyle: "Oh no... If this is the Hydreigon that Shaun told me about, this is going to turn out really well...">

Reshiram: Oh yes, I remember. -Notices Hydregion.- My goodness...Is she alright?

-Unite flies up so that he's level with Reshiram's head.-

Unite: <Oh yeah, she's fine! It's what she might do next that has us worried!>

Reshiram: Why is that?

-The Braviary whispers the reason why into the Dragon's ear.-

Reshiram: Oh...I see.

Wulfric: -Has a brainwave.- <Oh! Woolly!>

Woolly: <Yes?>

Wulfric: <Tell them about Hydregion saved you that time!>

Woolly: <Oh!> -To Nadia.- <Please, she's not that bad! She actually saved my life!>

Felis, shut up! You aren't helping!

Mezzo, if you had had your memories then, would you have done what you did?

I don't know...

<Nadia: "... What.">

<Toothless: "I told you that she was just a normal Pokemon when she wasn't upset...">

<Shaun: "Wait, really, Wooly?">

<Milo: "She saved your life?">

<Kammy: "What happened?">

-Thinking-

<Kyle: "This Hydreigon broke Nadia's wing? But... She doesn't seem unfriendly...">

I don't think you would've.

Sunny: <You wouldn't have. Because you know it's wrong. The fact that you're feeling guilty over it is proof of that.>

But it still happened...I can't change that...

Unite: <Wait, she was the one who saved you life?!>

Woolly: -Nods.- <Yep, it's true! You remember when Barb poisoned me, right?>

Unite: <...Yeah...>

Woolly: <Well, apparently I would have died if we had tried to get to the Resistance base by foot, but Hydreigon was kind enough to fly me back there before the poison could kill me!>

Unite: <...Really?>

Harriet: <It sure is. We can all vouch for her on that one.>

-Everyone else nods.-

Unite: <Oh...>

Reshiram: How heroic...

Thanks, Sunny.

Look, if Cyrus can get us into this timeline, he can get us out. This can be fixed.

I just wish I knew how...

Hydreigon: -Isn't saying much of anything- <At least no one's looking at me like I'm a monster.>

<Nadia: "...">

<Toothless: "You weren't expecting that?">

-Thinking-

<Nadia: "Well that's really comforting... She'll save your life... As long as you haven't done anything to incense her...">

<Toothless: "Ugh... But at least you see that she's normal, don't you?">

<Nadia: "Going mindlessly berserk at the slightest insult is normal?">

<Toothless: "To be fair, you've had your share of incidents too, Nadia...">

<Nadia: "But those were different!">

<Mike: "... Wait. 'Barb?'">

<Nathan: "A nasty commander in Scolipede and Lieperd's army... I'm a little curious as to how you guys managed to run into him so fast...">

-Aside-

<Teala: "Um... Tracer?">

"I'll ask..."

-To Reshiram-

"Um... Some of the guards wanted me to say something on their behalf..."

-Aside-

<Nervous!Mienfoo: "Wh-What is he doing?!">

<Nervous!Golett #2: "Sh-She's never going to accept an appeal like that!">

And then what happens? My memories of this timeline just go away? Even if this timeline isn't real, the things I've done still are.

...Um.

Crap. Now what?

Unite: -To Nathan.- <Well, he's always had a grudge against me. Mainly because I've fought against him a lot of times since I joined the Resistance. Once Woolly and the others joined, he started fighting them too. Plus he's the one that poisoned Woolly...> -Unite scowls.- <The jerk.>

Reshiram: -To Tracer.- Oh? What is it that they wish to to tell me?
