The Ideal Truth of Forever

Chapter 1

"Hmm, it smells so nice here," I say in delight. I'm walking around a field that contains thousands of flowers.

I lie down and gaze at the sky. I start to make up names for the different shaped clouds. There's a Samurott, an Eevee, a Bisharp, a Swanna, a Hydreigon and a... Reshiram?

I laugh as I finally realise that these are the Pokemon of my current team.

I suddenly begin to shiver. I get up and see some fog beginning to come out of a nearby cave. My curiosity makes me begin walking to it, even though my brain is screaming to run away.

I reach the entrance of the cave and pause. The fog is icy cold and I begin to shiver violently. My eyes strain to see anything in the fog. Then I see it.

Something is rising from the fog. I know I should seriously be running away from it, but something is keeping me glued to the cave.

The fog starts to clear and I see that a gigantic pokemon is standing in front of me. I'm about to step forward when I see something by its feet.

"No," I whisper.

My hand reaches to my pokeballs. They are all there, but I reach for the masterball.

"Come on," I whisper to it, then throw it forward. Nothing happens.

"Re-Reshiram?"

The masterball just lies there on the floor.

I look back at the other two objects on the floor...

A white orb and a black orb...

I scream. I look around, confused at where I am. I realise that I'm not in the cave, but at home. It was just a dream...

There's a knock on the door.

"Come in," I say.

My mum steps in. "Touko, is everything alright?"

I nod. "Don't worry mum. I had a nightmare but I'm fine now. Go back to sleep."

Mum walks to the bed and tucks me in. "Ok, well sweet dreams darling."

"Thanks mum. Goodnight."

She walks out. I wait five minutes and then jump out of bed. I rush over to my table, where my pokeballs are. I pick up the master ball and gently shake it.

"Reshiram, are you there?"

The masterball moves a bit.

"Ok, sorry. Goodnight."

I put it back down. Eevee jumps up in the bed. Eevee had only recently hatched out an egg, so it liked to stick closely by my side. I smiled, picked her up and stroked her fur till she fell back asleep.

I thought about my dream. A white orb and a black orb. That had to be Reshiram and Zekrom.

I brushed off my worries. Reshiram was fine and Zekrom...

The pain came out of nowhere. That ache that always invaded my heart when I though of him. A young man with green eyes and green hair. The one that I-

Stop it, I thought to myself.

I put Eevee down and lay down. My eyes became glassy and tired. I closed them.

I slept with tears rolling down my cheeks.
