-Natural Harmonia Gropius ...

The voice in a whisper that came from White's lips reached both present in the room and a certain young man with green-tea hair stared away. On the other hand, for White seeing the person she just wanted to find in front of her eyes was a shock.

Two years had passed and she had not heard from him, his last news came from Looker who had said about the appearance of a young man and a white dragon in a distant region but beside that she did not know more, it was as if the earth would have swallowed him, but look at the crooked hand that fate has that there they were both face to face in the worst case scenario for Touko.

She needed to control the internal impulses that were arising at that moment and she needed to do it quickly since she could not allow N to see her that way. She couldn't afford to disappoint him. N would surely be disappointed if he found out about Zekrom, if he discovered how weak she was in those moments, how much she did not deserve the title of Heroine of Ideals and Unova pokemon champion; N would be very disappointed and she would fall before his eyes. But, a part of Touko wanted to stop being White in that instant, to jump on him, maybe hit him or maybe cry into his chest when she knew he was back. But, she couldn't afford that luxury right now and would fight with everything within her being to be strong before him. Not to bring him down, to be at his height. Suddenly N's calm voice surprised her being less than a meter away from her.

-Sorry, do we meet before?- The green-haired man asked confused as he cocked his head showing a smile. That he remembered, very few people knew his real name, and his circle of human friends were a very small number of two, or at least that is what he considered, those twins he had known long ago; the girl of ideals and her younger brother.

Rosa looked at White in amazement as she then looked at N as if trying to find out what was happening and why, after that sentence, White had lowered her head and hid her face as if with fear.

-I-I don't think so ... I only heard about you ... The former king of the plasma team and paladin of truth ...- White's mind thought fast each word to say while her heart beat with a faster speed faster than a Scolipede at full power, her cheeks were turning slightly pink as she fought against her eyes to keep from the tears that had accumulated in them. Luckily for her, Rosa interrupted them in a bad way, trying to cut the moment as if it had been a gesture driven by something deeper.

-Mr. N! - Rosa exclaimed, accidentally giving White a slight push as she hung on one of N's arms, achieving a somewhat unexpected reaction from him. For the first time Touko saw N put a face of apparently annoyance about something that had nothing to do with the pokemon, for the first time she saw him ashamed and embarrassed without knowing what to say to the opposite to make het release him. It seemed logical to Touko when various memories of the N from two years ago came to mind. As always, when he approached her, he kept a certain distance at first, as if he were afraid to approach, although as time went by she could see as if his confidence increased to the point that he could be millimeters from her without feeling uncomfortable. that highlighted his innocence.

Rosa's voice took her out of her thoughts again when she felt like with her both hands already free when she released the clouded-eyed one, now she was grabbing her by one of the arms and smiling she presented her to N.

-Oh yeah! Mr. N, this is White! - The scandalous and effeminate voice of the one with the pigtails reached both of them and White could see how the other's gaze returned to focus on her - I met him in Nimbasa, he invited me to ride the Ferris wheel with him.

-The Ferris wheel? - The green-haired man questioned as he analyzed the person in front of him from head to toe, he did not know why but something tremendously familiar called him from somewhere like a slight smell of pecha berries.

-Yes! He said it was a place that brought back many memories about a friend- Rosa when mentioning that looked at the person who was holding in her arm to check if he had been bothered or not by the comment that maybe it had been something personal and his silence did not was nice, although she didn't know White for having so many words.

- White, right? Nice to meet you, my name is N, although you seem to know it- The young man with the rubik's cube smiled once more as he extended his hand full of bracelets to the 'boy' with the cap of opposite colors.

Touko wondered whether to touch his hand or not, or if she could control herself so as not to hug him after doing that but when she reacted from her thoughts she discovered that she was already holding the opposite hand and inadvertently exerting pressure on it as if she did not want to let go of it. that did not go unnoticed on the contrary but he maintained a gentle grip despite everything.

-I feel like you want to tell me something ... Is something wrong White? - The boy's calm voice made her react to her actions and withdrew her hand from the opposite one quickly while with both hands she adjusted her cap so that it covered her face more.

-S-sorry! I must go! - And while the tears came out of her eyes White ran as much as gave her feet up the stairs of the tower towards the exit leaving them both behind, only to hear as Rosa's voice called her away.

-Hey? And your research ?! White wait! - Rosa yelled as she ran to the entrance of the room and looked to the lower floors watching as White disappeared between them. Surrendered she returned her sight to her king while giving a light sigh.

-Did I do something wrong? - N asked quietly as he looked at the place where White had come out and then focused his sight on his palm that he had previously clasped with him, the touch of someone that seemed familiar to him, the feeling of knowing to that person from before, none of that left his mind.

- I don't think so, he doesn't normally behave that way ... Although I don't know him too much- clarified the youngest as she looked at the boy in front of her. Again, every time she looked at him, N seemed to be in another world, something distant and unreachable, she knew he was thinking of her again in his rival from two years ago.

Rosa didn't understand him, no matter how she tried to get close to him, he didn't seem to notice. He was lost in the memory of someone else but now, now it seemed as if that memory lived, he had not stopped looking at his hand and White's behavior made her doubt. Rosa loved N, from the moment he rescued her from Kyurem but nevertheless, she could not forget how he seemed to feel for this person whom she did not know. She still remembered in her travels how when she arrived in Nuvema Town and visited a house, a strange woman greeted her and even hugged her, telling her that she was happy that she had returned, and asking if she had found her dear friend. Then she could see how the woman apologized saying that she had mistaken her for her daughter and even mentioned that a few days ago a young man with green hair named N had passed by who was looking for that person. Both were looking for each other and waiting for a reunion.

She could have told N that...

She could have told him about his rival's mother, she could have told him that she wanted to see him too, she could have motivated him. But she didn't want to. If she did, he would disappear from her life looking for the shadow of someone she didn't even know, she couldn't help but feel jealous of someone she had seen in her life. But from how N talked about that person every time, she knew she couldn't afford to give N that information, or he would never look at her. Rosa could not feel anything but envy for the one with the title of Defender of Ideals ... Envy and Jealousy.

-I came to tell you that my friends have informed me that Kyurem has returned, he is waiting for you- N's voice took her out of her thoughts about the presence that always bothered her and brought her to reality, the news made her happy in a way, she wanted to see that frozen dragon again -What will be the truth that awaits you and your pokemon? I want to see it...

That phrase awakened a certain melancholy air as she watched N slowly walk away again, but her voice rose to stop him. There was something in her power that she neither deserved nor wanted, and she must return it to its true owner.

-Mr. N, wait! - At the call of the girl in pigtails, the other trainer stopped his step and turned slowly to see Rosa running to his side holding a ball in her hands -This ... Reshiram, she doesn't belongs to me, I don't have a truth to pursue and I would feel very bad to separate a friendship as beautiful as yours and your precious pokemon ... Please accept it back ...

In N's eyes that was the happiest and most unexpected news he could receive after finding Touko, he had really gotten so used to Reshiram's presence in his life that separating from her flooded him with deep sadness, for a moment he wondered if that same feeling Touko had two years ago when he said that he would separate her from her precious companions, he couldn't help but feel guilty again as he looked at the girl who bowed in front of him and handed the pokeball. N took it in his hands while a smile adorned his face.

-Thank you, Rosa- The girl's heart skipped when she heard the words of her most precious being but then that melancholic look on the opposite face made her see reality. Reshiram was another of the bonds that he did not want to lose and that bound him to that person. She didn't seem to have a chance... didn't she?
