Knock Knock…. Knock knock
Axel's uncle, Noah, went to open the door. "Hello, Mr. Noah."
"Hello, Sam. What brings you here today?"
"Sorry to trouble you Noah, but we saw a kid flying in Charizard. You know the city rules. We have information that the kid went inside your home."
"Oh, you must be talking about Axel. I bet he didn't know the rules. Why don't you give him a pass this time."
"Noah, you know me. I do my duty diligently. I can't let such things go.", said Sam.
"Uncle, what is happening there?", asked Axel as he moved towards the door.
"That is the Kid! Kid, you flew in your Charizard. You were told to come down but you didn't follow. Come to the camp for briefing now.", said Sam.
"And why do I have to do that?"
"Didn't you hear me already? I said tha…."
"I hear you fine. You think only you know about the city rules. Any trainer that is an advanced rank or higher could fly in the city."
"So? What are you getting at?"
Axel then took something out of his pocket and threw a circular disc in Sam's direction. Sam caught the disc and turned it over. His face paled when he was what it was. Yes, it was exactly the badge for an advanced rank trainer.
"Without even verifying that I am an advanced rank trainer, you assumed that I am not and tried to detain me. Do you have anything to say for yourself?", asked Axel.
Each of his words was louder than the previous. Axel was a calm person, but when it came to his family, even remotely, he could not control his anger. He saw how the guard was acting toward his uncle. Though his uncle was an advanced rank trainer, the guard was taking advantage of him.
Advanced rank trainer in a small city like Hakone city was a big deal. Except for his uncle, there were only a few advanced rank trainers in Hakone city. But since his uncle was in a wheelchair due to the accident, the guard thought to take advantage which he didn't like.
"Sam, why don't you go? You already have the evidence and he didn't breach the rules.", said Noah. Sam nodded his head, gave the badge, and then left.
After Sam went, Noah closed the door and asked in excitement, "Kid, you didn't tell me that you are already an advanced rank trainer?"
"I didn't get to complete my story uncle. Hehe."
"So, how many elemental rank Pokemons do you have?", asked his father. His father, mother and sister also joined the conversation.
"Currently, I have 3 of them?"
"3? Are you serious?", asked his father.
"Of course, I won't lie about such things."
"Really brother? Can I see them?"
"Of course, but not now. Uncle, where is Light? I want to meet him.", said Axel with a determined voice.
"So you came here to fulfill your promise. You know how Light is. He is still doing his training. He would be here after 30 minutes.", said Noah.
Axel already knew where Light was. He didn't want to disturb Light in training. There was only one thing that Axel would not do to make Light angry, and that was to disturb his training.
Axel then continued his story of the unknown island and the mysterious dreams, voice, and the girl.
"So, what do you think uncle? What was that?", asked Axel.
Noah thought for some time and said, "I think it was Latias."
"You think so too?"
"Yes. There are only 2 possibilities. Either you were put into a hallucination by a powerful Pokemon or it was Latias. Since all the things that were said by that mysterious voice, dreams and the girl were true, I refuse to believe that it was a hallucination. So, only Latias comes to mind. It does have the capability to do it. It is a legendary Pokemon with psychic powers after all.
The only thing that concerns me is, why did it decide to help you?"
"I also don't have any idea about it.", replied Axel.
"Normally a legendary Pokemon would not interfere with humans. But since it had helped you, it would not be too bad. But I advise you to return to your land on that island after you have become sufficiently powerful."
"I will keep that in mind uncle."
Axel and his family ate the food. Now they were in the garden. Axel decided to release all his Pokemons. Agnes was happy playing with little Absol and Tauros. Since Absol and Tauros were just born a few months ago, they were very small compared to their normal counterparts. Agnes found them very cute.
"Dad, what do you think about her new partner?", asked Axel. Axel was obviously talking about the first Pokemon for Agnes. Since Agnes was going to be 7 yrs old after some days, she would get her first Pokemon.
"I have not thought much about it. Do you have any plans?", asked his dad.
"I may have some plans."
###
As they were talking, Axel noticed something. Suddenly, right before his eyes, Axel could see a Pokemon.
It was a humanoid Pokémon with a large mustache. It had a long, thin snout, narrow eyes, ear-like spikes extending from the top of its head, and an additional spike protruding from each cheek. Covering it's blackish purple, skeletal body was brown armor-like sections over its chest, shoulders, forearms, and knees. There were three toes on each foot, each of which has a white claw. Two of the toes face forward, while one faces backward.
It was Alakazam. But this Alakazam was different. Instead of yellow color, it was blackish purple.
Axel saw the Pokemon and smiled. He then said, "It has been a long time, Light."
'It sure has, Axel.'
