Reminiscing

The same day

Valley path

Darkrai was an intelligent Pokemon. It was able to assess his situation very well. It was unable to kill the human even after it kept slashing him for ten minutes straight.

It chose to give up for now and find other ways to kill the human. It will follow his orders for now.

Three hours later

" Let's rest here guys. We can practice a little after that. Let's eat food first."

The man said that.

"Rio, riolu"

His Riolu nodded.

"Dark"

His Darkrai also nodded.

The man soon set up the dinner table and plates and spoons for himself while taking out the Pokemon food for his Pokemons.

He was not that much of a cook so he brought lots of preservable things to eat as it saved time was good to eat.

He knew how to cook but he just didn't want to waste his time doing that for now. He will cook later when he felt like he was strong enough to eat the food he made and live another day.

The Riolu and the Darkrai were eating food nicely. Things like jealousy and hatred didn't emerge out of them. They were ignoring each other. One in fear and the other in haughtiness.

After eating all of them slept a little.

Ten minutes later.

"My healing doesn't depend on whether I am awake or not."

When he was first attacked by the Darkrai, he was angry. His destructive emotion stream nearly took control of him. Emphasis of nearly, the moment he looked at the eyes of Darkrai, he saw emotions he was really familiar with, like he had seen it on someone but wasn't able to remember.

He didn't know what those eyes meant but his destructive emotion stream just calmed down.

The person must be someone from his past life. All his emotions calmed down and atonement was all he felt. He didn't know who or what to atone for, he was just feeling it.

Even now he just can't get angry on Darkrai for attacking him. If this continues, then his past life would be the reason for his death one day.

The reason he chose to sleep was also because of this. He was tired mentally after feeling the emotions of atonement for the past three hours. He wanted to rest.

His body is of a superhuman his mind isn't.

He chose to sleep for real this time around.

The Darkrai was wandering near the man. It was not sure of his decision anymore. Just like how Riolu was able to sense emotions, Darkrai was able to sense intent. The man had a massive surge of destructive intent for a split second before it calmed down and turned into atonement.

An emotion Darkrai was so familiar with that he was living with it for every moment of his life. Darkrai lost his partner and he was not able to forget her. She was a good person. She always cared for Pokemon and put other's need above her.

Yet she was betrayed by her friends and killed in an ambush due to their greed. Darkrai killed all of them when he get to know of her death. It was sealed in the pokeball and was living there for the past few years.

Darkrai was suddenly sent to this man and thought that it could be finally free if it killed the man.

Now after feeling that intent on him for the past three hours, Darkrai was not firm enough to do it. He had seen the eyes of the man at that time. They were hollow like he has lost everything.

Darkrai was thinking of what it was going to do in the future. It had waited for the past few years for this opportunity, he was not going to waste.

It began to think of new scenarios.

Soon two hours passed. The man woke up. He ate seven times his usual amount. He took a sip of water and gulped it.

He was a little free from those emotions. Till when would it continue, he didn't know. He knew nothing. He can't change the fact.

He looked at his Pokemons and cheered up.

*Flashback*

???????: Never let your past affect your present for it will be the become the past of your future. At that time, you will regret living your life like that.

???: Captain even you are making fun of me huh.

???????: I am not. It is just something I would never be able to experience.

????: Come on Captain, you sound like a narcissist.

*Flashback ends*

"Huh, what was that? Who were they? Why were their faces blurry? Why do I feel light suddenly? Calm down."

*Breathes in*

*Breathes out*

His mind feel light. He felt good.

'Except for the fact that I didn't like the scenario where my mind was forcefully changed in just a seconds everything felt great.'

It was euphoria.

Both the Riolu and the Darkrai were looking at him. His emotions changed in just a moment and it was not forced. His mind was the one that changed its emotions without any external influence. They were bewildered by him more and more now.

He was like an enigma to them.

They both had the same thought, this man was a little interesting.

"Let's get some training guys, we need to get stronger that we are. Let's run for starters and then you will practice your moves and their combination."

"Start!"

Three more hours later.

Both the Pokemon were exhausted. They both trained to their limits. He made them use moves after moves without any break and they were soon exhausted.

He learnt many new things from this training.

One was that Pokemons are able to use to moves at the same time, it just needs experience or strength to do so.

Second, the amount of times they can cast each move was not limited. They can cast a move as long as they can meaning tiredness or an injury is the only thing that is stopping them from casting them moves infinitely.

Third, they were able to increase or decrease the strength, speed, duration, distance and timing of most of their attacks.

Fourth, they gain mastery of their skill over time and after repeated usage.

Fifth, they were just like Saiyans, they grew stronger from training or a life or death battle or a fight among them.

Final point, they obeyed him even after he put them through that much training. Why? Once again, he didn't know.
