[Rika is currently sitting under a tree on the outskirts of Violet City, and she's holding a badge in her hands.] Mii. I am sorry that I did not tell anyone that I would be challenging Falkner today. Satoko, I thought it would be better to show you a more even battle since I was too strong for Falkner and the battle went by quickly... I was not

[Guess who was sitting on the other side of the tree and thinking of the same thoughts? Keiichi peers around after Rika finishes talking into the guide.]

--Yo, Rika-chan! Falkner was a breeze for you, huh?

[Action]

[complexrestart]

[Rika is a little startled, but she turns to Keiichi with a smile.]

Mii. He was. I can't believe that the battle went by so quickly.

[youhavemybat]

[He'll scoot over to her side of the tree now.]

But about what you were saying eariler... What made you come up with those thoughts? Just spur of the moment thinking or were you thinking about this for a long time?

[Action]

[complexrestart]

... I have been thinking about this for a long time.

*Hayate listened to the post, and was close enough that he could home in on Rika after she finished talking! So he shall be approaching after a minute.*

--congratulations, Rika-san! It sure sounds like you're thinking about some rather complicated topics...

[action]

[complexrestart]

[She grins.] Thank you very much, Hayate.

Mii. I am always thinking about complicated things!

[action]

[combat_butler]

Always, huh... So you're not just letting that mature side of you slip out? *teasing? noooo*

[action]

[complexrestart]

[There's a very slight smirk.] ... I may be. Although, I like to think that I am always mature.

I wouldn't want to forget anything from here, even if I went home to the exact same time and place I came from... even if it seemed like I wouldn't be missing anything.

Ideally, I'd like my friends to be able to have their own lives where they belong... but when we go home, I don't want to forget what happened here, either.

And I completely believe it wouldn't be the last time we see each other, even if we're sent home.

I don't want to leave either world behind. I want to build a bridge between these two worlds, just like the worlds at home.

[complexrestart]

Do you think it would be possible?

[video]

[vagabondfool]

Absolutely.

I've crossed dimensions and worlds plenty of times before, with and without meaning to. I think, with a little help, it wouldn't be too hard to create a way to cross between them.

[complexrestart]

Mii... piecing two fragments together, right? I wonder how we would be able to go about doing that.

I'd return home. [Not a single second of hesitation there.] I have too many responsibilities there, especially at the moment. It would be a shame to lose all these memories, but I cannot abandon the people of my world.

[video]

[complexrestart]

I understand that. What sort of responsibilities do you have?

[video]

[puppet_paladin]

...The welfare of a whole kingdom, and a falling moon to stop.

[video]

[complexrestart]

Mii? A falling moon?

[She saw the message and rushes to her.]

Congratulation Rika. Wow, the Gym Leader probably didn't put much effort into it.

[action]

[complexrestart]

Thank very much, Satoko.

[Rika giggles.] Actually, I believe he tried very hard. I think he was actually sweating at the end of the battle.

[action]

[cantrapanarmy]

That's because he didn't know what hit him until the end. [Smile.] Teddiursa is almost done with his training.

[action]

[complexrestart]

He is? I can't wait to see him in action!
