Reshiram's Calls

"Bee!"

Victini waved its hands in panic, its petite body flying around Aisha in a haphazard manner.

It was embarrassed to death.

Although it was said that most Mythic Pokémon were naive in nature, however, that didn't mean that they were really little children who didn't know anything.

Victini was also clearly not some capricious and unreasonable Pokémon.

Having stolen Aisha's macarons because of its gluttony, and now having been caught by the other party, Victini was naturally ashamed while embarrassed.

The problem was...

"Bee~"

With its small hands touching its body, Victini revealed a helpless and anxious look.

It didn't have any money either.

If...

"Bee!"

Above Victini's adorable face, a look of distress instantly covered it.

It clutched its head.

"Aye~"

Looking at Victini with such a difficult look, Instructor Ai also let out a bad smile.

Finally, he cleared his throat.

"Alright, I forgive you, you don't have to pay for the macaroons."

"Bee?"

Hearing Aisha's words, Victini also raised its head in a hurry, and within its watery eyes were covered in 'really' feelings.

"Really, I'm giving it to you."

Saying that, Aisha took out another macaron and handed it to Victini.

"You like this flavor right?"

"Bee~"

Victini was also naive.

After hearing Aisha's words and seeing Aisha's actions, it immediately forgot about those troubles in the party, and immediately took the macaron that Aisha handed to it, and happily took a bite.

"Bee!"

The sweet aroma hit the taste buds, and Victini revealed a happy smile under the deliciousness of the macaron.

Sure enough, there just wasn't anything more enjoyable than macarons in this world.

If it's hard to say there's still one, then...

"Bee~

Holding half a macaron, Victini blushed slightly and stole a glance at Aisha.

If one were to say that there was something better than a macaron, then, this handsome man who had a strong sense of victory wrapped around his body, and who had invited Victini to eat the macaron, might count as one.

Hmm!

He was more important than macarons.

"Eh?"

At this time, Skyla, who was in the back, also saw Aisha talking to no one in particular, and walked up with a curious face.

"This Pokémon?"

After seeing Victini, Skyla first stared blankly, and then remembered the Pokémon stories she and Aisha had heard at her aunt's stall.

"This is Victini?"

"Well, it's cute, isn't it?"

Aisha was also familiar with Victini's small body and raised it towards Skyla, saying, "Victini is a Pokémon that represents victory, if you let it share some of its power with you, maybe Muss Skyla will be able to fly straight up to the sky without an airplane next time."

"Bee~"

Victini also followed Aisha's words, its small hands around its waist, showing a proud expression of "Yes, I'm that powerful."

"Bee?"

Then Victini glanced at the hand holding its body.

Victini originally didn't like to have its body casually touched.

But... When this human was touching itself, it didn't have any aversion to it.

What's going on?

I don't know~

Anyway, the macaroons are delicious!

"Bee!"

With that thought, Victini stuffed the remaining half of the macaron into it mouth again and swallowed it.

"Eh?"

Skyla couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at Victini in such a naive manner.

Girls were naturally fond of cute Pokémon.

Especially a particularly cute Pokémon like Victini is their favorite.

"Come~ I have macaroons over here too!"

Skyla took out several pieces of macarons of different colors from the box placed on top of the bench and handed them to Victini.

"Bee... bee?"

Looking at Skyla and the differently colored and scented macarons in Skyla's hand, Victini, who hadn't seen much of the world, was immediately dazzled.

"Bee~"

Skyla couldn't help but laugh out loud even as she looked at its dainty look with its mouth almost watering.

However, Victini didn't immediately make a move to take the pieces of macarons, but instead twisted its head to look at Aisha who was holding itself up.

"Bee?"

It showed a questioning expression.

Victini wasn't a bad child, although it was said that the party had eaten two pieces of Aisha's macarons out of greed, however, that was also because it had a natural affinity for Aisha.

On Skyla's side... It wasn't willing to just take someone else's things without permission.

"It's fine."

Instructor Ai separated a hand and touched Victini's head.

That V above its head had a warm aura, as if it was a burning flame.

"Eat, it's fine if you want to eat as much as you want."

"Bee~"

Having received Aisha's approval, Victini naturally did not hesitate anymore.

It flew towards Skyla and took all the macaroons at once, eating them happily one bite at a time.

"Such a small body can actually fit so many macarons?"

"Don't you girls also have two stomachs for eating and snacking?"

"I see, Victini is a girl too!"

"What kind of logic is this to come to that conclusion..."

Looking at the gluttonous little one, Skyla and Aisha also sang and told a duet.

"Bee~"

After dryly eating several pieces of macarons, Victini burped before making a V sign at Aisha and Skyla.

Crossing her arms and winking a bit, Victini then flew around the duo and stopped by Aisha's side.

"Instructor Ai, Victini seems to like you a lot?"

"I'm a person who is naturally more attracted to Pokémon, there's no way around it."

Meeting Skyla's eyes, Instructor Ai also spread his hands helplessly.

"There are more than just Pokémon that are attracted to you..." Skyla sniffed, hanging a pair of dead fish eyes, and spat up Instructor's weird charm.

"That's not my problem."

"Don't be sophomoric, sinful one!"

Victini couldn't understand the duo's conversation.

It was sort of full, so it said that it didn't continue to plunder Aisha's macaroons, and instead flew towards Instructor Ai's Pokémon, joining in on the fun.

Everyone was also quite welcoming to such a cute child.

Especially after seeing Victini's interaction with Instructor Ai, Haunter and Rotom, the resourceful children, had already considered it to be everyone's new companion, so naturally they were extra enthusiastic.

"Bee~"

Victini flew in front of Charmeleon and made an amends gesture towards it with its hands folded.

It was also the one who gave Charmeleon some power without authorization, thus causing Charmander to go up to the sky and tackle Haunter.

"Roar~"

Charmeleon also laughed brightly, not caring about these things.

It kind of liked that feeling of being filled with power instead.

"Roar!"

It was decided that in order for it to actually have that much power, it would have to work out harder in the future as well!

"Jie..."

Haunter beside it sucked in a breath of cold air.

Rolling dog!

Damn it, clearly he's already this powerful, and he's still rolling like this all day long.

Then I'll roll too!

"..."

Rotom was reluctant to speak from the side.

"Ha~"

Watching everyone's interaction, Aisha also smiled helplessly.

He felt that his luck was too good.

It was just a trip to a battle festival, and he actually met Victini for real.

"The macaroons kind of came in handy."

Yes, the macarons Instructor Ai had bought were something specifically for Victini.

He knew that Victini was in Eindoak Town, and likewise knew that this little guy liked macaroons, so he had prepared them specially to lure this Mythical Pokémon.

However...

After taking into consideration Mythical Pokémon's always mysterious whereabouts, Instructor Ai thought that he didn't have any protagonist's aura, so even though he had prepared macaroons, he didn't have a lot of confidence in abducting Victini's action.

Result.

Victini actually really smelled the scent and came to the door.

"Is this fate?"

Looking at Little V, Instructor smiled and shook his head.

This child Victini was also pitiful...

For a long time, it had been living in Eindoak Town, unable to leave the town by half a step due to the restrictions of the ancient boundary.

Not only that, Victini's power could be targeted by some guys with bad intentions at any time, and its personal safety could not be guaranteed.

If, given the chance, Aisha wouldn't mind freeing this poor child.

However, the problem of the boundary... even he didn't have any good solution for the time being.

...

The old mayor moved quickly.

In just an hour, he approached Aisha and Skyla, who were playing with Victini within the park, and expressed that the natives of Sword of the Vale had already agreed to Instructor Aisha's request to visit the castle.

Now, following the old mayor, the two of them also set out on the road to that one castle in the posture of the crossed swords.

"Bee..."

On the way, Aisha heard Victini's voice again.

When he followed the sound, V-cub was nowhere to be seen.

"Hmm?"

Aisha released his psychic power fluctuation, and sensed Victini's location.

V-cub had been following himself.

Originally, he thought that their encounter was just an accidental encounter within traveling.

Unexpectedly, Victini actually seemed to be relying on itself...

"Uh-huh."

Instructor Ai gave a small smile.

This wasn't all bad.

"Rotom."

"Lo~ What's wrong with Instructor Ai?"

Aisha called out softly, and Rotom phone floated next to him.

"Dragonspiral Tower and Giant Chasm... hmm... Can you find those two places on top of the map?"

Instructor Ai asked for information on these two vital places.

Currently, it seemed that the hiding places of the three First-level Legendary in the Hoenn region were already very clear.

Reshiram's Light Stone was placed in the Sword of the Vale.

Zekrom's Dark Stone is placed in Dragonspiral Tower... I wonder if N has tried to go over and awaken the Ideal Dragon during the week.

Kyurem, on the other hand, is hiding in the Giant Chasm.

"Lo..."

Hearing Instructor Ai's inquiry, a map was displayed above the Rotom phone's screen.

The map was scaled down, and the three coordinates were purposely labeled.

"Instructor Ai, look." Rotom phone explained, saying, "We are in Eindoak Town, Giant Chasm is considered to be a place around Lacunosa Town, and it is not too far away from Eindoak Town, so even if we are in a hurry, it won't take long, and we can arrive in almost two hours."

"Uh-huh."

"As for the Dragonspiral Tower, this place is a bit far away, this tower is at the border of Icirrus City, right at the other end of Eindoak Town."

"Understand..."

Aisha showed a thoughtful expression.

Since, it's not far then... after completing the operation at Sword of the Vale today, it might be a good idea to take a trip to Dragonspiral Tower.

"Instructor Ai!"

While Aisha was figuring out his subsequent trip, a young girl's voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Huh?"

He raised his head and saw the young girl who had used shiny Hydreigon standing in front of Sword of the Vale's castle, waving towards himself.

Without realizing it, he and Skyla were already following the old mayor to within the castle's boundaries.

"I remember your name is Carlita?"

With his distant memory, Aisha pronounced the young girl's name.

Hearing Instructor call out her name, Carlita herself couldn't help but laugh out loud.

What could make a young girl happier than an idol being able to remember her name?

"Yes, Instructor Ai, I'm really thankful for the previous sparring match, although it's true that shiny Hydreigon and I lost, however, we'll redouble our efforts to become stronger in the future, and strive to become awesome trainers one day!"

Running to Aisha's front, Carlita was also incredibly excited as she said a long list of declarations of hard work.

She knew that Instructor Ai liked trainers who worked hard.

"Hm."

Aisha, on the other hand, nodded his head and smiled to sort of appreciate his words.

"This gentleman, welcome to the Sword of the Vale, I'm Juanita."

Meanwhile, Carlita's mother stepped forward and welcomed Aisha and Skyla with a smile.

This aunt wasn't too in touch with the internet.

She also didn't expect that the two customers she happened to meet on top of the stall were actually big guests that could make even the old town mayor treat them warmly.

Therefore, when the old mayor brought up Aisha's desire to visit the Sword of the Vale's castle, Juanit decisively agreed to this request as well.

"Hello, Aunt Juanita, I've troubled you with my hasty visit."

"It's fine, no trouble."

Juanita then pushed out a youth and introduced him to Aisha, saying, "This is my son, Damon, if it is said that this gentleman intends to visit our castle, then he can certainly be a good guide."

"Greetings, Mr. Aisha."

"Hello, Mr. Damon."

Aisha smiled and shook Damon's hand.

This man was extraordinary.

Within the two theatrical releases of Black and White Heroes and Victini, this man has gained the recognition of Zekrom and Reshiram as the Black and White Heroes, respectively, and has masterminded a series of plans for the Dragon Force, Sword of the Vale, and Victini.

Of course...

Now on top of this world where the heroes are coming out, Damon is helplessly obliterated, without the chance to become a hero.

"Mr. Aisha, Miss Skyla, the two of you, please follow me."

"Uh-huh."

"Ah... Good!"

The family of three walked ahead, while Aisha and Skyla followed them towards the castle.

The old mayor had already excused himself.

Only the five of them were left on this side.

"Ka!"

Sword of the Vale's magnificent door opened, and a breath of the era came out, carrying the castle's interior atmospheric decoration along with it into Aisha and Skyla's eyes.

"Wow."

With one foot inside the castle, Skyla looked around and revealed an expression of awe.

"Amazing..."

"Uh, uh!"

Aisha was ready to compliment as well, but his footsteps suddenly stopped.

"Bee!"

Victini exited its invisible form and landed on top of Aisha's shoulder.

V-cub looked around the interior of the castle with a curious expression, and the color of reminiscence was revealed within his eyes.

"Ah, this is Victini?"

Seeing V-cub, Damon also exclaimed in surprise.

"You recognize it?" Skyla had a surprised look on her face.

"Uh-huh."

"Legend has it that Victini was a good friend of the old king of Eindoak Town, and the king's two sons were the black and white heroes of Hoenn." Damon told the story he knew, saying, "At that time, the king used Victini's power to shelter Eindoak Town, but the two princes broke out into war in the aftermath."

"Victini contributed no small amount of help to quell the war.

Damon was silent for a moment, and looked at Victini with apologies and unspoken and unknown emotions within his eyes.

"However, Victini was unable to leave the boundary of this castle and has been living in Eindoak Town for a long time..."

"If this boundary can be revoked, Victini can also live freely, right?"

Aisha asked.

Damon, on the other hand, chose to remain silent.

"..."

Aisha looked at Victini again.

It was the hero that saved this land, but Eindoak Town was unable to give it a freedom.

"Bee~"

Meeting Aisha's gaze, Victini however, revealed an innocent smile.

It was its nature to selflessly help those it trusted.

"What a child..."

With mixed feelings, Aisha stroked Victini's small head.

Compared to an old man like Mew, this child was really just a child.

"Here."

"Bee~"

Aisha handed Victini another macaron, and V-cub took it with a smile.

The tour of the castle continued.

When she passed by a warehouse, Skyla looked back, but she realized Aisha had stopped in front of the door of the warehouse for some reason.

"Instructor Ai?"

"..."

Aisha didn't respond.

He just stood fixed over there, staring at the door.

"..."

Some images flashed through Aisha's mind.

The White Dragon.

The White Hero who rode the White Dragon.

The battle between White and Black.

And... the call that echoed in the mind.

"Hero, truth hero."

Instructor Ai's pupils shrank.

In a trance, the image he saw became one point clearer.

Beneath the deep underground, within the stone that shimmered with white light lodged the clean white dragon.

The dragon was calling out to him...

"Reshiram?"
