Hard Boiled Detective Since 1985AU Route 5
J!Unown: This one is just visiting, but would like some company... What are the names of these ones?
Contact Me!Treasure Town
Skye and Diane appear near a gardner's house.
Olaf: <AHH! Oh, thank Arceus! Skye! Listen, could you help me get Alli? She's been like this for multiple days straight...>
The aforementoned human-turned-Meowth is curled up on the Skittynip patch.
Skye: <...Alli, we kind of need you to->
Alli: <Nya.>
Skye: <...As I was saying, we->
Alli: <Nyaa.>
Skye: <...Alli...>
Alli: <Nyaaa~>
Ten minutes later
Alli: <Nyaaaa->
Skye: <ALLI.>
Alli: <...Eep...>
Skye: <We're leaving. Come.>
Alli nervously obliges.
In Front of Diane's House
Skye: <...I guess we'll come and meet you after a while...>
Diane nods slowly, then goes inside. Skye, Alli, Olaf, and Adel leave.
Diane's House
Diane's Mom: <Diane! There you are! We've been so worried...>
Diane's Dad: <Where've you been!? We thought you'd dropped off the face of the planet!>
Diane hesitates
Diane: <Erm... I... kind of... did?> ._.
Mom: <What are you...>
She glances at her husband, and finally understands.
Treasure Town
Skye and co. are searching through town. Skye is glomped from the side by... Eskay?
Eskay(?): <Skye! There you are!>
Skye: <Oh! ...What are you doing here?>
Eskay(?): <Listen, Skye, there's something I've wanted to tell you...>
Skye looks at him skeptically. He had ignored her question. He never ignores questions.
Skye: <...And what might that be?>
He leans closer to her.
Eskay(?): <I think... I think I'm in love with you...>
...
... ...
... ... ...
Skye: <...You're not fooling anymon, Doopliss.>
Eskay Doopliss: <Dammit... you're good, Slick...>
He reverts back to Ditto form.
Diane's House
Dad: <...You found out, huh? That you're actually human?>
Diane: <Yeah... how did you know?>
Mom: <...We are, too...>
Her dad nods in agreement.
Dad: <Your mom met me in that world about... seventeen years ago... She showed me to this world, and I loved it... so we decided to stay here. We then made a visit to that world a year and a half later, and then... she had you. We took you here to live, because... we thought you'd like it here.>
Diane: <And you never told me this...>
Mom: <We were actually going to tell you soon after you... left... How did you find out, anyway?>
Treasure Town
Wilbur: <Come on, give it back! That pearl is worth more than my life!>
Smugleaf: <Yeah, give it back and leave us alone!>
Bully!Dewott: <Come on, you're still alive, aren't you? Surely it can't be that bad. It's only a pearl.>
???: <You know, those scalchops of yours look real tasty... I'm sure you wouldn't mind having the shoved down your throat.>
The Dewott turns around to see the form of a Grumpig.
Bully!Dewott: <...Ah-heh... On second thought, this probably means a lot to you, doesn't it, little Spoink?>
He nervously puts the Pearl back on Wilbur's head, then absconds.
Grumpig!Doopliss: <...You owe me, Slick.>
Diane's House
Diane: <You see... I met this Noctowl, Eskay... and I showed him around town, since he was new around here... We talked for a while, then eventually we decided to go to the Guild to form a Rescue team. Then after a few missions... he said he had somewhere else to go... And I said I wanted to tag along...>
Mom: <I'm going to take a wild guess... it's because you like him... that way, don't you?>
Diane: <Well, um... yes, that was why...>
Her mom smiles at her
Mom: <I see... anyway, go on.>
Diane: <...It turned out he was going through a portal to his world, the one with humans... the one we're from...>
Dad: <...I guess that explains it... but why haven't you come back until now?>
Spinda Cafe
Dax and Kong are playing poker. Yes. They're playing poker. That's how they've spent the last hour.
Dax: <All in.>
He pushes his entire pile of Poke into the center.
Kong: <~Hmm... he could be bluffing... but should I risk it? ...Perhaps I should play it safe...~ ...I'm... gonna fold here...>
Dax smirks
Dax: <Bluffin'. You should be able to tell when I'm lying, Kong.>
Skye: <Yeah, yeah, you were bluffing... listen, we need to go.>
Dax: <All right, all right...>
Diane's House
Diane: <I... really haven't had much chance to... I'm sorry, I really am...>
She winghugs her parents, starting to cry a bit...
Dad: <It's okay, sweetheart... now you're here...>
Diane: <B-but... that's the thing... I want to go back... Not because I still have a c-crush on Eskay, I've g-gotten over that.. it's just... they're some of my best friends...>
Mom: <I see...>
Her mom pats her on the back...
Finder's Keep
Skye: <Hey Jazz...>
Jazz: <Oh, hey, Skye! What can we do for you?>
Relic: <Oh? You know this group?>
Jazz: <Yeah, they're friends... from that other world I told you about...>
Relic: <...Oh... I see...>
Skye: <...You told him about that?>
Jazz: <Indeed...>
Skye: <Oh... well, we're all going to go back now...>
Jazz: <...Aww...>
She turns to Relic
Jazz: <...It's been great working with you, Relic...>
Relic: <Same to you, Jazz... I guess this is goodbye.>
Jazz nods slowly...
Diane's House
Diane: <...I'll miss you... I'll try to visit occasionally, but... I can't promise you it'll be often...>
A knocking is heard on the door.
Dad: <Come in...>
Skye and co. do exactly that.
Diane: <Skye!>
She runs over ang hugs her, crying softly on her shoulder.
Mom: <These must be those friends you were talking about...>
Skye nods. Diane's mom sighs.
Mom: <They do seem like a good group... and you see very close with... Skye, your name was?>
Skye: <Yes... and yes...>
Dad: <Well... I guess this is goodbye...>
Diane: <Y-yes... g-goodbye...>
Skye walks out, comforting Diane. Her mom wipes a tear from her eye...
