Extra 12: I choose you! (3)

A year had passed since the Pokémon Professors' meeting, but this time had been glorious for the Uzumaki family.

Lusamine gave birth to a cute baby girl while Mina had twins.

Lillie being Lusamine's daughter while the twins were named Harper and Sarah.

Kurama was amazed to see his cute little girls while wondering about how potent their mothers' genes were because all the girls were their spitting images, Gladio being the only one who looked more like him.

Gladio was beginning to show tremendous potential in the Pokémon trainer realm, all thanks to his abilities as an [Aura Guardian].

Lana was also showing talent as a trainer, though unlike her brother Gladio, she didn't have the advantage of being able to use [Aura] to better communicate with her teammates but she made up for it with a huge affinity for water-type Pokémon.

Kukui and Burnet were now happily married, with Kurama being the best man and Lusamine the godmother, much to the annoyance of Mina and Wicke.

The dimensional travel research was becoming more and more complete, although Kurama's senses told him that things would not go as well as he thought.

Time continued to move forward and four years had passed in the blink of an eye.

Kurama, and the others were living their lives normally.

Gladio and Lana had started going to the trainer's school.

Lillie, Harper, and Sarah spent all their time playing together, or with their father, the little girls were cute little spoiled princesses.

Kurama, Lusamine, Mina, and Wicke decided not to have any more children for the time being.

Kukui's experiment turned out to be a success, and he was now considered one of the brightest minds in the world, too bad the teleporter was so expensive and difficult to build.

"Daddy!" - Lillie exclaimed as she jumped into his arms as she watched her father return home.

Kurama smiled when he saw the little blonde girl, only to let out a laugh when he felt two more pairs of hands on his legs - "Hi, girls."

"Hi, Daddy!" - The twins exclaimed happily.

"Where are Gladio and Lana?" - Kurama asked as he looked at the girls.

"Onii-chan is with her friends while Onee-chan is on the beach training the Poplio that Uncle Kukui gave her for her birthday" - replied Lillie as she hugged her father tighter.

"I guess Milotic is watching them" - Kurama said as the girls nodded.

"Hey, Daddy, do you think we can go to the festival on the weekend?" - Lillie asked as the twins gave her a puppy dog look with their huge blue eyes.

"Sure, it's a promise" - replied Kurama without a second thought - "Mommy and Daddy's project is about to be completed like we won't have to work so hard anymore."

"Yey!" - exclaimed the girls excitedly.

Kurama smiled when he saw this as he took the twins by the hand and put Lillie on his shoulders.

"I see you're back, sweetie" - said Mina as she saw the albino with a smile, more when she saw how happy the girls were next to their father - "Dinner will be ready shortly, by the way, where are Lusamine and Wicke?"

"They are still working" - Kurama answered as he shook his head - "They said to come first because I hadn't spent so much time with the children now that the project is coming to the final phase."

"True" - nodded Mina with a smile as she told the children to go wash their hands for dinner.

"Sorry for not paying so much attention to you" - apologized Kurama as he gave a small kiss on the lips to the sexy blue-haired woman.

"Don't apologize, honey, I know your job is hard" - replied Mina as she caressed her husband's cheek - "I'm just sorry for not being smart enough to help you"

"No, you help us more than enough just like you are" - Kurama replied with a smile as he felt the soft and huge breasts of the twins' mother - "I promise that when we're done with the project, we'll take a long vacation, maybe we'll go to another region."

"Sounds like a wonderful idea" - smiled Mina as she happily watched her daughters go downstairs together with her sister - "Ok, then we'll keep talking, I still have to finish with the dinner"

"OK" - nodded Kurama, but his expression changed when he heard someone knocking on the door.

Kurama quickly walked to the entrance and opened the door, only to see a man with messy white hair who seemed to be some sort of gang member - "Guzma, it's a pleasure to see you"

"Same here, boss" - Guzma replied with a toothy grin. He was none other than the leader of Team Skull, a gang of misfits that inhabited the formerly destroyed Po Village.

"How are your buddies?" - Kurama asked with a smile as he gestured for him to enter.

"They're still the same as always" - replied Guzma while controlling his way of speaking a bit because he knew that the kids of his 'boss' could show up at any moment - "Although, with all the income you've been giving us, their lives are much better."

"It's the least I can do for you guys" - Kurama replied calmly as he asked him if he wanted to have dinner with them, which the gang leader accepted without a second thought - "Not to mention that you've shown how much you guys want to move forward."

"Not just anyone would have given that opportunity to a group of misfits, let alone us who caused hundreds of vandalism claims" - Guzma replied as he looked at the white-haired man - "Thanks, boss if it wasn't for you, Team Skull wouldn't be what it is now"

Po Village before was in a deplorable state, but thanks to the income Kurama had given to Team Skull, they had rebuilt the village with their sweat and tears, they had even recreated some landmarks and now the village was slowly improving.

"Team Skull is no longer a gang, but respectable members of society" - Guzma continued with tears in his eyes - "We can go out on the streets with our heads held high!"

Guzma quickly ate and retired because he knew it was not a good idea to spend too much time with the family because it was a bit uncomfortable for him.

Kurama didn't stop him, after all, he had heard from Kukui about this man, that's why he had helped him, although he didn't tell Guzma because it would end up hurting his pride.

"It's time to start" - Kurama said as he settled his lab coat.

"Hai!" - Wicke exclaimed as she adjusted her glasses.

Lusamine had an expression full of excitement as she saw that the day had finally come to fulfill her dream of knowing more about the different dimensions.

"Power rising!" - Wicke exclaimed as she checked the logs.

Kurama stood in front of the machine as he felt a huge amount of energy begin to build up in it.

Lusamine slowly walked beside him as she trembled with excitement, after all, this was one of the dreams she had yet to fulfill.

The excitement was palpable, and even Kukui who had come as a guest along with his wife understood how important this was for Kurama and the others.

"Enough energy to begin!" - Wicke exclaimed as her eyes seemed to change slightly.

"Begin!" - Lusamine exclaimed as the other scientists began to type at high speed.

Slowly, a strange crack began to open in front of Kurama and Lusamine, revealing a color-changing portal that began to produce blue sparks.

"It's a success!" - Lusamine exclaimed excitedly as she hugged her husband - "We were finally able to open a portal to another dimension!"

Kurama smiled when he saw this, but his expression quickly changed when he felt something approaching - "Look out! Something's coming from the other side!"

"!" - Lusamine opened her eyes in surprise and terror when she heard this, only to back away and hide behind Kurama because she didn't know what was going on.

Kurama quickly unleashed his most powerful Pokémon, a towering six-foot Salamance, an exaggerated size for his species, and prepared for the worst.

The portal began to shake, from it, a strange white jellyfish-like creature appeared and began to float around.

Kurama kept his guard up because something told him that this thing was not as innocent as it looked.

"It's beautiful" - murmured Lusamine as she started to walk to the strange creature, only to let out a small scream when she felt her husband grab her hands - "Huh? What just happened?"

"That thing was what happened" - Kurama replied as he frowned while pointing at the creature from another dimension.

The white jellyfish seemed annoyed to see how the human had stopped the woman.

"Security alert! I want everyone present to stand down, that thing can affect the mind!" - Kurama exclaimed as he instructed Kukui to grab Lusamine and take her out of the place because he understood that thing was dangerous.
