The Grand Opening

[driftingmods]

[A large WELCOME sign is hanging from the buildings when you walk into Levanta Town, but that seems to be the only sign that today is any different than any other day. The villagers are simply going about their daily business. However, if they are approached they are more than happy to explain the region as well as they can to any new arrivals.

Welcome to Levanta Town in The Drifting Land!]

[Guess who's glomping you from behind~]

THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE OK TOO!

[powerfulwarrior]

[THEREEEE ARE SOME FAMILIAR BREASTS ON HIS BACK.

I MEAN

A FAMILIAR VOICE.

Gosh you are kind of heavy, at least Stoutland's there to hold him up.]

Bianca! You're here too, hey! Of course I'm okay, I'm glad you're looking good too! [Let him turn around and hug you, god.]

[futureprofessor]

[HUGGING SO MUCH MAN now you have breasts on your chest, enjoy them.]

I was so worried! I was busy in the Lab and suddenly poof! I appeared in this weird place and I couldn't find anyone and I WAS SO WORRIED! [Did she already say that? Oh well. Squishing. Sorry for your bones, bro.]

[powerfulwarrior]

[Oh he certainly will. Bianca's hugs were the best (if bone-breaking!).]

A-Ah, I can tell! You're no less strong than when I saw you last too, but working at the Lab? You were at Dragonspiral Tower. Whatever, I'm glad to see you!

[futureprofessor]

The Tower? But that was months ago! I'm working with Profesror Juniper right now, remember? [Sorry, she lets go of him to cross her arms.] Did you hit your head or something, Black?

[powerfulwarrior]

[Black? Working with Professor Juniper for months now?





Black actually is a really cool name. It's better than Hilbert for sure, so why not roll with it.] I could've, I guess. I don't really remember anything past heading for Relic Castle and then appearing here. I don't think I did though. What about Cheren?

[futureprofessor]

You don't remember anything? At all? [Shocked Bianca looks shocked.] But the big Castle and the dragon Pokémon, and the championship!

[powerfulwarrior]

[Nope, not a word.]

I know N's got his dragon, but I was working on getting mine. He flew off to the league.

[futureprofessor]

And you followed him and-! [Oh, who was she kidding. Looking down now, all pouty. So it meant his friend didn't see her get all confident! Sob.] ...I already don't like this place.

[powerfulwarrior]

Why not? [He'd believe her being all confident too, he knows Bianca's a strong girl deep down.] There's tons of new people and Pokémon to meet! So what if I don't really know what you're talking about?

[futureprofessor]

Because memories are important, and we all got what we wanted, and-! [Hilbert's optimism reminds her that she's the one who is supposed to do the comforting in her group so she takes a deep breath and tries to calm down.] Know what, you're right! We're gonna start a new adventure and meet new Pokémon and I'll make my research here!

[powerfulwarrior]

[Ahh, that's the Bianca he knows!] Atta girl! We'll make tons of amazing memories here too, so it's fine in the end. Maybe you can set up your own Lab and everything, Professor Bianca!

[futureprofessor]

[Aaah now that makes her go all red. Hello hat, cover my face please.] D-don't say those things! I'm not a Professor yet! I-I'm just-! [Giggle.] ...maybe I could...

[powerfulwarrior]

Gurs and I'd help you build it if you wanted us to, and I'm sure there's a lot of nice people around here who'd appreciate having a Professor, even an apprentice one, working around the clock for their Pokémon.

[futureprofessor]

Y-you think? Heeeh... It'd be awesome to be the person who gets to save the data of all these new Pokémon! [The idea is getting her all excited! And no daddy to stop her here!]

[powerfulwarrior]

[He's getting pretty pumped about it too! Taking your hand, Bianca, let's go find a place we can set it up at ♥ Stoutland just trails along, shaking his head at his trainer.] Exactly! You'd be the first one here! You'd meet all kinds of trainers and Pokémon from all around the world, probably! I'm kind of jealous.

[futureprofessor]

[Usually it's her the one dragging people around, so being the "dragee" for a change feels nice. Coming along~ This is exciting!

Although it's still a bit difficult for her to accept compliments.] How can you say that! People will be waiting in lines to fight you, the Unova Champion! I bet you'll get to see like, zillions of more Pokémon than me!

[powerfulwarrior]

[Thaaat breaks his stride, and Stoutland has to race in front to keep his trainer from stumbling at his own short-stop.]

Wait, the Unova Champion? I haven't even beaten the Elite Four yet! [He'd been okay with putting off memories but something like battling? No way.] That I know!

[futureprofessor]

Eeep! [Shocked friend is shocked, and Bianca gets a little startled. She stands next to Stoutland, finding comfort in Pokémon she knows well. She has her won after all!] P-please don't be angry! I don't know what happened b-but where I come from, we all finished our journeys already! You and White defeated Team Plasma and all!

[powerfulwarrior]

[White? Let's see, if he was Black, would that make Hilda White? Man, these names were sounding less cool by the second.]

I'm not angry, Bianca, I'm just surprised. I've only met Hilda-- er, White, I guess, in Nimbasa's Gear Station. I don't even think she knows about Team Plasma's threat. Or if she does, it's no concern of her's. She's too strong to be defeated by them. [So what was the deal with this? Time shenanigans?] You're positive?

[futureprofessor]

One hundred porcent positive! I swear on Munny! I- [How can she prove her words? Oh, an idea! Here, she'll show you her Xtransiver. See the date? Probably not the one you remember, Mr Champion.]

[powerfulwarrior]

[Whoooaaaaa. That is definitely not the date he remembers. In fact, he checks it against his own just to make sure he's hasn't caught amnesia or whatever.] That really is months in the future. There was a guy in Opelucid City looking for a way to time travel or something like that, but I didn't think he could do it!

[And, obviously, he brought Hilbert along???]

[futureprofessor]

I think it's like, this weird place... We went "poof!" at different times, and now you don't remember you caught the dragon and became Champion!

[powerfulwarrior]

[... Sounds legit.]

I guess I should mention my name's not Black either, huh? I wouldn't wanna take the identity of someone who's done that much when I haven't changed a thing myself. [Aw. There goes his cool name status.] It's, well... Hilbert.

[futureprofessor]

[A groan, then she hangs her head.] No you too! The same happened with White- or Hilde I guess. But it's totally you, I swear! Even if your name is different and your starter isn't Snivy!
