"Colress...."
"Oh hey there!" The dialogue box appeared as Colress spoke "it has been a long time now, huh?"
"Colress....how....?" You spoke covering your mouth with a hand
"Now, don't be surprised, please" he said as his avatar waved hand to motion not to worry. "You've grown up a lot! Maybe you're even older than me" he joked as you kept looking at him, totally shocked at the scene "how old even are you? 30?"

"I-in my twenties...."
"Twenties?! Gosh, look at you, you're still so young. I believe you were 15 or 16 the last time I saw you?"
"Colress. Please be serious. What're you doing here?"
"Sigh I was programmed to be in this game, L/N Y/N"
You smiled softly as he said 'L/N', after your marriage, even though you wanted to keep your own last name, almost everyone opposed the thought of it and now here you are with a last name you don't even want to carry around. This marriage was a sh*tty one after all. Now hearing it from him felt nice.

"How have you been?"
"You wanna hear the truth? Or the lie?"
"Tell both"
"If i be honest, then I'm in a pretty messed up situation and want to go back to my teenage to change some things around and if i lie, then I'm pretty good and I love my life"

He nodded and before he could speak, you spoke up "can i please....go back to black? I don't wanna continue living here.....I miss my time there. Everything felt so nice there and-" tears slipped down your eyes as you wiped them "-and Black was the place, where I felt like i belonged there. Everyone loved me and so did he"

"Y/N, you don't want to"
"Yes I do want to"
"Think about it Y/N"
"Colress, please. I want to. I belong there, with you all"
"You're not thinking about the future! What will happen to your family? Your mom and dad would worry and you friends---..... don't you already have a boyfriend or someone like that? Or are you still single, hanging onto N?"

You looked down, maybe he was right? What will happen to your kids and husband? Your parents and friends? Everyone will worry.

"I'm married, Colress...I'm not single and I have two kids...my mom and dad forced me to marry this guy even tho I was trying to think of the ways to get back to Unova and live with N"
Colress gasped in surprise.
"Y/N L/N, you didn't just thought about abandoning your family like that!? You're literally married now! And have kids-" he groaned "look, i know how much of an impact Unova had on you, and N did too, but you have to move on Y/N. This world is not for you....maybe try to move on? I know it sounds sh*t but you have no other choice. We aren't actual human beings, we are not made for you."

You sat on the bed quietly with the DS in your hands and kept staring at the screen.

"Colress please..... atleast... atleast please let me meet N one last time, i promise I'll try my best to move on after that....i just want to see him again..."
Colress sighed and looked at you again

"I mean....i can do that but it'll be risky, Y/N. You sure you wanna do this?"
"A 100% sure"
*Sigh* "then give me a week. Exactly a week and at this time only...I'll bring you back here but not for too long"
You nodded as you mumbled a small "thank you" before closing the device off and letting yourself sink into the bed. "I'm gonna be meeting you again....N"

.......
A week later.
Sunday, 2:15 A.M.

You switched on the device excited about going back. The game turned on and your character was standing in the same place as before.

You waited for a bit before a cutseen appeared and Colress showed up.

"Oh hello there, i thought you would change your mind and not show up"
"I could never do that Colress. You know."
He nodded "Look, all I want you to do now is keep the game on beside you and fall asleep. Make sure that every doors or windows are closed"
You gave him a nod and layed beside the DS, slowly drifting to sleep.

You woke up at the sound of birds chirping and sun rays falling on your face as you slowly opened your eyes and looked around.
"W-where am I?" You mumbled to yourself and got out of the bed and looked around the place a bit before realising "IM BACK?!" You yelled and quickly got back to your senses "I'm back....it's my room in Unova....but it seems different...?"

You rushed downstairs to find it all empty, not even your mom there and exited the house.

"This world.....I'm in B2W2......but-" you quickly checked your team and to your surprise it was all empty. "My team is empty again?……i have to withdraw my team from the center" you said to yourself as you ran to the nearby center.

As you were about to open the door to enter, a hand grabbed you by the shoulders and turned you around, glaring at your figure.
"Colress..?"
"You sure are a pain, aren't you, little one?"
"B-"
"I told you that I'll be giving you a chance to meet N again didn't I?" He said as you nodded in reply. "I set up a meeting, and everyone also wants to meet you for the final time"

"Everybody? Who are the everyone you're referring to? Bianca? Cheren?"
"Gym leaders, your mom and...." He scratched the back of his head nervously
"Let me guess, Ghetsis?"
Colress shook his head with a smile "you're quite smart, aren't ya? You sure grew up a lot. I bet everyone is going to tear up seeing you like this"

"Oh how I wish I could greet them as a child again"
He chuckled "go and grab the team you last fought with in Black version. I transferred them all here in this game"
"You know, I'm really grateful that i met you in my life, you're the reason why i actually found happiness earlier as a child." You said turning around "without your help i wouldn't be having a chance to experience all these and meet him"
"You're most welcome, Y/N" He said watching you enter the center.

All your pokémons jumped onto you with a smile on their faces. They grabbed onto you tightly, tearing up as they saw you again, maybe it would be the last time they will probably see you and they really don't want to loose this opportunity to show you how you really mean to them.

You got outside of the center with your team following you "I believe that i should let them outside instead of keeping them in their balls"
"That shows how much of a greatest trainer you are actually. I'm so proud of you"
"Thank you so much, now shall we move to where everyone is at?"

.

You stood outside the closed door as Colress headed inside. You could hear everyone talking about you, all the shuffling just made your heart race faster and faster. After all these years.... imagine seeing everyone so grown up in real. Could your heart and mind bear them all?

You took a deep breath before grabbing on the door knob and with shaky hands pushed it open.
With closed eyes you entered the room and closed the door behind you.
All you could hear was people breathing, you could feel all eyes were on you and slowly opened your eyes to see everyone.

Everyone, excluding N.

Your gaze shifted from one person to another. Everyone was there.

Cheren, Bianca, Iris, Old gym leaders of the original version of the games, not the current version's, Alder, Ghetsis, N's sisters. The room was crowdy. You felt suffocating, it felt difficult to breathe as tears filled your eyes and gently rolled down your cheeks.

No one had the guts to speak up first. But you needed to speak. So with all the courage you owned, you spoke first. "Hello.....guys....?"

Cheren, Bianca and Iris quickly ran and threw themselves onto you hugging you tightly as they started crying.
"We missed you Y/N. We missed you"

You hugged them back as they let you go.
Everyone felt different. They all were grown up now and the already grown ups looked old, but not much. They all smiled as you hugged each of them except Ghetsis who was sitting in a corner, away from the eyes of others.

You looked over at him and walked to the corner "Ghetsis." You said as he looked up on you "With all the thinking from the past years, I have to say.....i forgive you"

Ghetsis looked at you with surprise as no one in the room questioned you about it. They knew you're matured enough to think about it properly.

"With the brain of an adult now, as I grew up, i realised that it not your fault that you're the villain. You were created to be it as someone needed to fulfil the villain role. As a player from the real world who knows everything about it, I must say that i forgive you and what you did was all programmed but as the protagonist of this game, i could never forgive you as what is happening in the real world is beyond my imagination and from this perspective, what you did was all your own decisions and you shouldn't be forgiven. I hope you would understand all these, respected, boss of Team Plasma."

Everyone looked at you with so much respect and we're feeling proud of it.

"You grew up so much, Y/N" Lenora was the first one to speak as her husband agreed by nodding.
You gave them a smile and sat on a chair.

Minutes passed to hours as you talked to the others, catching up on everything and updated them with every new news. You didn't wanted to leave this place, it was the home you wanted to stay at forever; but knew that you could never.

But aside from all these thoughts, where the hell is he even at?

"One quick question!" You said as everyone looked at you curiously. "Uhm so guys...." You started nervously.

"Where is N?"
