Pokémon: Pink Paradise

Chapter 17: Library•

"Selena, are you okay? You haven't said a word since you came here" Lillie frowned as they were shopping around Malie City in Ula'Ula island. Selena can't get what happened in the aether foundation out her head. Lusamine, the ultra beast, Toby... could it be true that Dialga and him don't have a good relationship and forced to erase him memories. She refuses to believe it. There's only two ways to find out. The hard way when having to wait for answers, or the easy way when summoning Dialga with her Adamant Orb

"I'm fine... just thinking about my old friends"

"Do you miss them?" It's hard to admit out loud, but she really does miss everyone. It's come to a point where she's not all that much of a mess anymore when it comes to the lost of her friends. Sure, it still hurts... but it's amazing how time can do to heal one self. She can get the guts to actually reply to everyone's emails, but right now... she still needs to do a few things. One most important thing besides putting the shadow triad in peace, is finding Ninetales

"Yeah... I really do. I'll talk to them on my own time, but I feel like I have to focus on something else" Lillie nodded

"I understand" they reached the library Lillie has been wanting to go to "finally we're here" she put down her shopping bags and stretched her arms "there's a book I want to look for here. You don't mind coming with me, right?"

"Of course not" the library was incredibly large for how small it looked from the outside. There were multiple floors that seemed endless. How are they going to find one book in such a place?

"Where do we even start?" Lillie frowned "I'll ask the receptionist" she walked away. Hapu's aura approached

"Selena, it's been awhile"

"Hey Hapu. Haven't been running into random baths, are you?" Hapu laughed nervously

"Awe, I'm never going to live that down, am I?"

"Nope"

"Fair enough! Seeing you this far, looks like your island challenge is coming along favorably. That must be pleasing to the Tapu"

"I guess it is"

"What you up too?"

"Just traveling around with my friends"

"That's good to hear! I best be on my way. I saw you from afar and wanted to say hi" she waved "see you later, yah?" Selena waved and looked her key stone. Huh... this feeling

"I fount it!" Lillie shouted. Someone shooshed her. Selena smiled and made her way up where she was and found Lillie sitting next to a strange girl that... strangely looked familiar

"Selena! I found it! Well, this nice girl helped me find it!" Lillie smiled, holding up a book. Selena sat across from them. Froslass came around the corner and handed her a book titled 'how to handle sudden news' still haven't spoke about the Pokémon she had, but it'll have to wait... even if she is curious to know why she had it and where she got it from

"This book is very old..." Lillie said, carful with the pages and read to herself the book titled 'The Light of Alola' which was about the island guardians and the beast fighting. Also about a king, but he was from Unova coming to Alola to start over. Selena cupped her eyes. That story is...

"Isn't it great?" The girl said "my dad's books are all great!"

"Yes... it is! But when you say your father... isn't this book very old?" Lillie asked
