Story Notes:

The story has been finished, the follow-up will be written soon, and it will the be called: The Primal Spark: Another Time, Another Place.


Chapter 40 (act 2 epilogue, act 3 prologue)

(the following is a timeshift, there won't be a major P.O.V. on this, it'll be a collection of short events, though there'll be a large Lucas part)

Lucas West: when we arrived back in Snowpoint, I was glad to be finally taking a break...but, aside from travelling Sinnoh, I didn't feel like I had much more purpose...maybe I should look at travelling to other regions, too...

Seena Michaels: the others were glad to see everything had turned out alright, and that we were fine, over the next week, I took each chance to visit mothers resting spot, Lucas would always accompany me there, sometimes, Tira and Julian would come, as well, but, as time went on, Lucas seemed to be a little off...

Jacob: it had been a strange couple of weeks for everyone, but I felt like something really changed inside myself when my little sister came into the world, almost like I had matured, y'know?

Terry: now that I had opened up to Lucas, things became easier, and I began to see him as more of a friend, and, perhaps, a guardian, Mom and Dad have been a bit tense lately, but not more than usual.

Tira: everyone else is glad to be back in Snowpoint...I am to, to an extent, but then again, I've never been one to stay in one place for too long...

Julian: a couple weeks after we all started on our break, Tira seemed to be getting a bit tense, I asked her what was wrong, but she always seemed to deflect my questions...have I done something wrong?

Gordon: Lucas proved himself to be a man of his word, getting Garudan and myself the privacy we had so longed for, even if it was only around an hour, that was enough...for now

Garudan: a few days after our break started, Gordon surprised me by telling me that Lucas had arranged to get the two of us some privacy, a good thing, too, I had been looking to let off some steam for a while, now...

Eliza: soon after we started our break, I began to seriously think about my options when it came to evolution, I knew I could trust Lucas to choose what was best for me...right?

Albus Greene: it was definitely good to have Lucas around again, but I couldn't help but feel saddened when he told me about professor Rowan...Maybe there was another reason he wanted to meet this being of the lake?...

Beatrice Greene: when Seena said that she and Lucas would be here for a whole month, I was glad to say the least, I really wanted Katie to get to know them...

Katie Greene: Mom told me that uncle Lucas was one of the nicest people in the world, and that I should try and be friends with him...but can I really be friends with someone so much older than me?

Zoey: I'm happy that we're going to be staying in one place for a while...I really just need to adjust to not being in team Galactic anymore.

Jackie: things have been going well since the family came back to Snowpoint, and Michael says that my brother seems to have really changed...I can't really see it, though...maybe it's because we're siblings?

Grimgar 'Garth': Lucas seemed to take the news well, I'm not sure if he knows if anything's happened between me and Lapis, though, but I'm not sure if it really affects him anymore...heh, the fierce spear of lake Acuity...I could get used to that...

Lapis: I was surprised when Gigas asked me to stay in the temple, they seemed to say I was a valued guardian here...I wonder why? I don't think I'm much stronger than the others, but...on the other hand, it has been nice that Gigas has allowed me to leave the temple each day to catch up with Garth...he seems more confident lately, too...so that's good.

Michael: I'm glad that Lucas will be staying here for a while longer, he's become a friend to me, and not many people can say that...

Joy: it's a nice change that Lucas decided that he'd stay in Snowpoint, but I don't want him to just forget his dreams...

Uxie: after I had finished talking with my sister, and we finally re-established our mental link, it would now be possible for all three of us to contact anyone, anywhere over Sinnoh, this may come in handy...

Jonah Michaels: he's still out there, but I don't know what to make of it, surely if he didn't want to make amends, he would have left by now, right?

Ravan: I want to do this, if I just left, I would be letting myself and Lucas down...not to mention Seena, I hope Jonah comes around soon, though

Candice: after I touched down in Veilstone, I made my way straight to the Gym, Maylene said she had some exciting news for me...

Maylene: it finally hapenned, just like Lucas said, but it was surprising how it happened...I was just training with Lucario, and all of a sudden I felt really strange, then, after that feeling subsided, I knew exactly what he was saying! I had to tell Candice...

Lucas: our break was long by my standards, Candice informed me that maylene had awakened the abilities I spoke of, and I knew I would have to talk to her about it later, we actually passed christmas in Snowpoint...things happened, to say the least,it seems Seena decided we should get a bit more 'adventurous'...it was strange at first, but things became more natural after a while, anyway, we still visited Jonah, Matt and Terese during our time in Snowpoint, but when we visited Jonah, Ravan was gone...we asked hima about it, and he said that he had visited Sati's grave with Ravan since we last saw him, Seena said that she was ready to frogive Ravan at that moment, but finding him may be a problem...
over the next month, we made our way through to Eterna, the first thing that happened was, Zoey evolved, twice within the week, so she was now a Crobat, too, I guess this made Gordon feel as though he could leave the group without worry, as he and Garudan left about a week after, the two of them said that they'd be living in a cave on route 207, apparently, that's where Garudan grew up, when we made our way through Eterna forest, Eliza actually evolved, herself. using the pokedex, I found that she became what is known as a Leafeon, when I asked her about it, she said it felt right to her,
and that was all that mattered to me, but also, that she felt some connection to this forest, she asked to stay behind, I didn't protest, but I did tell her she would be missed, and if she ever changed her mind, she could come back to us...she thanked us for all our kindness before we left, and told us that the next time we saw her, she would be much stronger...
after we reached Eterna city, I looked up the tailor, and she helped me with everything I was after, in the end, I didn't get those plates sewn into the fabric, after being told how hard it would be to find a wild rypherior, and how heavy those things are...
needless to say, I tought Zoey Fly using the HM, so we would be able to continue visiting the others...a week or so later, we hit Veilstone, I actually thought we would be there for a while, given that I may need to train with Maylene's Lucario to fully understand the Aura sphere, and not to mention...that extra thing I wanted to do with the nugget and star piece...
after meeting up with Maylene and asking how she was, I had a private conversation with the Lucario, to ask about two things, the Aura sphere, and if he'd told Maylene how he felt...he gave me a demonstration of the aura sphere, telling me that actually trying to under-do it is key, and he told me that he hadn't said anything about that to Maylene yet, I told him that waiting may not be the best course of action, but that he should pick a good moment, too...
after that, and everyone else was staying in a room in the pokemon centre, I made my way to the Veilstone department store, handing over three things, the nugget, the star piece, and Sati's ring to use as a size reference, luckily, the part requiring Sati's (well...my) ring only took 10 minutes, so I got it back quickly, the rest of the process would take about a day, I was lucky that they didn't charge me, because there was enough left-over materials to count for payment, then, an important question came up.
"what do you want engraved on it?"
I thought on it for a moment, before remembering the first things I really said to Seena that could be considered...well, romantic...
"you'll never have to be alone again, and remember, I'll always protect you..." I said in response to the question
after that was done, I went back to the pokemon centre to find that Tira wanted to talk with me...she told me that she had been thinking about what she was doing in life, and that she decided that she wanted to stay back in Snowpoint, I told her that I really didn't mind if that was the case, and that the next time we were in Snowpoint, she and her family could stay there if they wanted.
the next day, I picked up the ring on my own, and we continued travelling, down to Sunyshore city, not much happened there, as Tira's previous...well, owners had moved, but we spent the rest of the week there.
When we headed back to Snowpoint, Tira and her family went back to where they were before, near Sati's grave, as Seena and I went back to our room, that night, I decided where I would do it, where I would give her the ring, it would be where we first met...
the next morning, I did my best not to let on that I had anything planned, and things went as normal until just after we visited Sati's grave
"Seena?" I started "could you follow me for a moment?"
"well sure, but why?" she asked in response
"you'll see in a moment..." I said, as I led her down, south of Sati's grave, I then looked towards the ground and said "yeah...this looks about right..."
"what are you talking about?" she asked, in a curious tone
"Seena..." I started, closing my eyes "this is where we first met, do you remember that day? it was truly sad what happened, but now, I want to make this spot a good memory for you"
"yes...an awful thing happened here...but I don't understand...how could you change that?" she asked, looking confused
"Seena, I've never said it first, but, I love you, and..." I then got down on one knee, pulling the special ball out of my pocket, presenting it to her "...and I want you to be my wife..." I then pushed the activator, causing the ball to open, revealing the ring.
Seena smiled as tears started to form in her eyes "oh, Lucas..." she started, bringing herself in closer to me "I love you too, and of course I'll be your wife..." she said, before bringing me into a kiss, after she released me from her embrace, I brought the ring to her attention, pulling it out of the ball and placing it on her finger, I then brought her back to our room, so we could settle down for the rest of the day...we didn't leave the room again for two days...(yeah, maybe I'll write this part up, if I'm feeling saucy...)
after we had settled back down (seriously this time) we went back to see Matt and Terese, to tell them the big news, after which Matt and Terese told us their own news, they would be moving down to Pastoria within the week...
we spent the next three weeks travelling to the last remaining towns we hadn't visited yet, and after that, I told Seena that I wanted to continue my training with Matt, to which she agreed, suggesting it might be a good idea...
so I spent the next three months training with Matt, he was much tougher now, but so was I, and I spent a lot of my training making new combinations of moves(which you'll get to see later)
when this six month (total) period had ended, Candice and the Snowpoint nurse were able to use these abilities, too, and others were showing signs of the abilities, themselves...

the last thing I remember of this time was seeing a report talking about a red Gyarados at the lake of Rage (this is the starting point of the story in the games)...
Chapter End Notes:okay, so to rehash, everyine else in the group is gone, leaving only Lucas, Seena and Zoey, Lucas is married (by Seena's definition) to Seena now, so she'll use his last name from now on, no kids (yet) and Lucas now knows a whole bunch of new moves.
and Eliza is a Leafeon
