Pokémon: Encounter

"But, Mom, you..."

At this moment, Fang Tong looked more like a child, like a little girl who had done something wrong, lowering her head and waiting for a scolding from her parents.

"Mom! Aren't you...afraid of me?"

Fang Tong raised his head and asked weakly.

"Silly child, how can a parent be afraid of their own child?" Gao Qing gently stroked Fang Tong's head and smiled, "Will you hurt your mother?"

"Hmm~~~" Fang Tong quickly shook his little head like a rattle.

"That's it, silly child~~~"

"But...you know...?"

"I actually know everything." Gao Qing interrupted Fang Tong, "I have already made preparations to stay here with you."

"You'll disappear! In reality! You'll be left with nothing but a corpse!"

Fang Tong had tears in her eyes and clutched Gao Qing's clothes tightly with a crying voice.

"So what? I got the cute child I always dreamed of!"

"Tongtong, I just want to say that your father actually loves you. When I knew I was going to lose you forever, I vented all my pent-up resentment on your father. Although your father was powerless to do anything about it, he still silently accepted all my dissatisfaction."

"Later, I figured it out. Maybe we really weren't meant to be together. I felt guilty towards your father and was depressed all day. Your father still took the trouble to take time out to accompany me every day, but this made me feel even worse."

"Fortunately, I met Machado, who allowed me to meet you in this way. Then I decided that I wanted to stay here with you. I didn't want you to be alone here."

"I was selfish and I abandoned your father. But I won't regret it. Your father is still young and he deserves better."

"I'm not saying this to make you forgive him, I just want you to know that your father loves you. He didn't abandon you on purpose. It's God's fault that we can't be a family."

Fang Tong looked at Gao Qing's lonely eyes and felt as if his heart was torn apart.

She knew that Gao Qing loved her father very much. Gao Qing loved her as well, but because of guilt, Gao Qing chose death. Death in the real sense.

It was she who put Gao Qing in a dilemma.

Although Gao Qing finally chose her.

So this is maternal love.

"Ms. Gao, first of all, I respect your choice. But I also want to remind you that you should have heard Mr. Fang whispering in your ear all the time."

"He loves you just as much, and he has no complaints. I know that I feel like I'm forcing Fang Tong and you by saying this. But I'm only considering it from a doctor's perspective, and I hope you'll be careful."

Nan Fang stood in front of the mother and daughter and expressed his final thoughts. Then he stepped back and left this precious time for them.

Time was running out, so Nanfang called out Machado. No matter what choice they made, Nanfang was ready to follow Machado and leave at the last moment.

Gao Qing looked at Nan Fang who was retreating and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, Dr. Nan. I'm sorry for the efforts you've made for a stranger like me, and I'm sorry for my husband's love for me. When you leave, I hope you can bring a message to my husband."

"Sorry, I Love You."

Nan Fang was silent and nodded.

At this time, a void of light appeared behind Nan Fang. This void of light was different from the others, as the void inside was stable.

"Time is up."

Machado looked at the mother and daughter opposite him. He couldn't quite understand this kind of feeling yet, but he felt inexplicably that it was very great.

Machado also placed one hand on his chest and made a gentleman's salute to the mother and daughter.

Fang Tong didn't look towards the south. His cute little head was buried in Gao Qing's arms. No one knew what he was thinking about.

Nan Fang no longer hesitated and followed Machado into the circle of light.

The aperture is stable and warm inside.

"Keep going forward until you reach another circle of light. Then go out and you will wake up."

Machado said to the south.

"Ah."

Nan Fang was still in a low mood at the moment, but he was not qualified to judge Gao Qing's choice, nor could he influence Fang Tong's thoughts.

Nan Fang took a deep breath.

Okay, the matter has been resolved. The next step is to think about how to explain it to Fang Jing after waking up.

Nan Fang looked around, and unexpectedly he could still see the void created by the moves of the mythical beasts that had been concretized before.

Outside the cave, there were only ruins left. The ground hit by the skills of the mythical beasts looked like it had been attacked by a nuclear bomb. The entire environment was in ruins.

Nan Fang looked at Mashado and said, "Mashado, have you seen many mythical beasts? Let me ask you a question."

"Well...it's okay. It seems that except for the God of Creation Arceus and the God of Destruction Yveltal, I have basically seen the other first and second level gods." Machado thought.

"Sure, that's awesome~"

"Hehe, that's right. After all, there are many different tests for heroes. Some powerful heroes might get involved with god-level Pokémon during one of their adventures."

"Well, let me ask you again, how do the abilities of the three gods of Hoenn that I just visualized compare to their true forms? How do the other mythical beasts compare?"

"Hmm... How should I put it? It's only lower, not higher. The power is probably less than half. Why are you asking this?"

"Ah, nothing, just curious."

After hearing this, Nan Fang fell silent for a while.

It turns out that the power of the divine beast can reach that level.

As expected, wanting to control or even create a mythical beast is simply a fantasy.

My choice was not wrong.

After a moment, Nan Fang and Machado walked to another light circle.

"Let's go!"

"Ah."

......

"Mother..."

"Hmm? What's the matter, Tongtong?"

Gao Qing looked down at Fang Tong, then looked up at the mess around her home.

Gao Qing waved his hand and dispersed the images of Ho-Oh and Lugia.

"Are you scared? No, wait for mom to restore this place to its original state. No, let's decorate it and make it look the way we like, okay?"

Gao Qing smiled and comforted Fang Tong who was still hugging her.

"Mom...thank you."

"What's wrong? Don't cry, little girl! It won't look good!"

"Mother."

Fang Tong raised her head and showed an angelic smile, so cute that one wanted to hold her in the palm of his hand.

Gao Qing's heart suddenly skipped a beat and she felt panicky.

"What's wrong, Tongtong!?"

Gao Qing forced herself to remain calm. She couldn't show her weakness in front of the child, so she asked gently.

"Mom, you are so nice! You are the best mom in the world!"

"It's a pity that I only enjoyed it for a few days."

"Mom! If there is an afterlife, I still want to be your daughter!"

Gao Qing reacted instantly.

"No! Tongtong!"

Fang Tong's face was covered with tears and she pushed Gao Qing away forcefully.

Gao Qing also had tears streaming down her face, but her body fell backwards uncontrollably.

"Mom. Goodbye."

Fang Tong put her hands behind her back and smiled warmly. The breeze blew across her wet cheeks and a few strands of fluttering hair.

Fang Tong's whole body slowly began to glow.

Until Gao Qing was stabbed and couldn't see anything clearly.
