(2 Weeks Later)

"Man, I can't believe this day has come so soon! The Butterfrees in my stomach refuse to let up," Emilee said in line for graduation. In Hoenn, schooling only went to 10th grade, and the leaders of the resistance, being Emilee, Josh, Samantha, Joey, Valerie, Keeton, Haylee, and I, were all moved up a grade for our resounding show of leadership, courage, and wit. "Now, the leaders of the resistance to the takeover of Meteor Falls," the principal said. "That's our cue," Joey said. "Let's do this," I said.

We walked onto the stage, and were presented with awards for our services to our region. "And now, as with all students, we will present them with their items, picked by the student committee." There were a few standouts, like Emilee getting a one-use TM for Aura Sphere, to Keeton getting a Life Orb, but the one that stood out the most was mine. "In a first time event for any student, Kilian Salamence got a letter!" "Thank you sir," I said as I took it. "So, anything you'd like to say?" "Yes, there is," Valerie said.

"Looking back, we've all come a long way in 8 months." "We've defied death.", Haylee said. "We've stopped evil," Keeton added. "And we've learned more about ourselves than we ever knew before," Josh added. "And wherever we go from here, we must never forget the lessons we've learned," Samantha said. "The people we've lost," Ellie added. "And the future we seek," Emilee said. "But most importantly, we must stay true to ourselves, and those we love. Only then can we grow as Pokémon," I finished.

After the ceremony, I sat on the front steps of the school and read the letter aloud for all of my friends to hear.

'Dear Kilian,
You may have noticed that I am not with you currently, and I am deeply sorry.
You may not have known, but in Unova, I am a prominent political figure, and cannot be away for long.
I have written this letter as a way for you to remember me by, and I hope there comes a day that you come visit me in Unova.
And though I may never say it directly to you, I am proud to be your father.

Signed,
Jonathan Ditto
Unovan Minister of Foreign Affairs'

"Guys, I think I found a way! Emilee, if you will," Keeton asked. He had been searching for a way to communicate with the dead nonstop since Raven's death, but it seemed like he had finally gotten it. "Guys, come on, it's working! We're getting a signal," Emilee said. We formed a circle, using our energies to strengthen the link. "Hello? Is anyone getting this," Keeton asked. "Loud and clear, Keeton. Loud and clear," Raven's voice said.

"Yes, it works! So, how has your last two weeks been?" "Full of change, that's what. Beatrice and Logan are now dating, Ephraim and Elijah have reunited, and I've met another long lost relative." "Hey Raven, who are you talking to," an unfamiliar voice asked.

"Raven, who's that," Keeton asked. "Keeton, that was Daniel. Daniel Gallade." "Wait, you mean our brother Daniel?" "One in the same, Keeton," Daniel said.

"Mew almighty, I wish I could see you guys." "We do too, Keeton, but you have things left to do in that world. We'll wait until your time comes. Until then, make sure you get your business done. The end of our lives don't signify the end of yours," Raven told her twin brother.

Keeton was clearly grief stricken, but still responded. "I-I understand. I miss you guys, but I know that I have more to do on this world. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye," he said, before breaking the circle. "Come in guys, we need to prepare for our day tomorrow," I said. My friends mounted me, and I flew them home. We spent the rest of the day preparing for tomorrow, as we needed the preparation time.

"Did you tell them about what happened with you and Gary," Daniel asked Raven. "No, I didn't tell them. I didn't want them to worry." "And they won't worry when they find out?" "It's better than them knowing what Gary did. Eliza will find them soon enough."

(The Next Day)

I woke up bright and early, ready to start my new adventure. Before meeting my friends at Route 108, I said goodbye to Mom, Ted, Obsi, and Carcha. "I'll be sure to visit," I said as I rushed out the door. I flew over to the exit, and met my friends at the start of it. "So, where do we go first," Keeton asked.

"Well, we could go to Rustboro City and work our way from there," I said. We all agreed on that, and within the hour, we were at Rustboro City. Emilee and I took the job of seeing who was left here, and if there was anyone willing to battle, while everyone else gathered berries, planned routes, and found landmarks, etc. At the end of the day, Emilee and I met each other by the shore.

"Man, the sea is so pretty at night, isn't it," she asked me. "Well, it could be, if you weren't here to make it look bad." Emilee started laughing. "Man, how do you get so funny?"

"Just experiment, see what works. Eventually you find something." "Whoa there, I didn't say that I wanted to be a scientist!" We then started playing with each other on the beach, before falling asleep together on the shoreline, marking the end of the first day of our adventure, and the start of many more to come.

Epilogue 1

I woke up in a space of pitch black. Running my hands along the side of my container, I could feel the thin walls of my confinement. I balled my fingers slowly into a fist and bashed one side with it until it broke. My now broken egg became flooded with moonlight, causing me to close my eyes. I slowly moved out and onto the floor of the building I was in.

Going out the door, I saw a group of people resting around a dim campfire. Hoping that my mother and father were there, I approached them. I had to move my green hair out of my face when I saw a Gallade. I read into his dreams, and heard him repeatedly say, "Raven, don't go."

I knew this to be my mother's name, so I layed down next to the Gallade. "Hopefully we can find my mother. Then we can be one happy family," I thought. "My mother, Raven, and my father, Gary, with me, Eliza."

Epilogue 2

(Two Months Later, from Seth's POV)

Route 19, the last 'Teen' route left in Kanto, and a mostly sea route. I prayed to Arceus that they were here, as I didn't want to lose them again. At the beginning of the route, by the terminal that connected the route to Fuschia City, I saw an opening that didn't seem natural. I entered, and saw a den, fit for at least 2 Pokémon. As I looked around to see how long it had been abandoned, or if it was abandoned, I heard a voice that both elated and terrified me. "Seth? Seth, is that really you?"

I turned around, and saw Andrea, with a silver Eevee on her back. "Andrea. Andrea, it's you!" I ran to her and hugged her with all my might. "Oh, you haven't changed a bit," Andrea said.

"Mommy, who is that?" "Honey, this is Seth, and he's your daddy." "Well hello there, what's your name?" "I'm Lanie," the small Eevee said. "Well, that's a pretty name! You don't look like any Eevee I've ever seen!"

"Yeah, my mommy says that I'm very special!" "Well, I'll say! You happen to be a Shiny Pokémon!" "Ooh, what's a Shiny Pokémon?"

"Well, it's a Pokémon that's a different color than normal. If I was Shiny, then I would be green and not yellow." "Cool! Can you tell me more about Shiny Pokémon, daddy?" "Maybe later, but right now, your mother and I have some catching up to do." "So, how did you find us," Andrea asked me. "Well, I'll have to tell you a tale. I guess you could call it, a Bagon's tale.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And with that, this tale, all these tales, have come to a close.
Thank you all so much for reading this and supporting me the whole way through.
It was a blast to make this story, and I know that I will continue to make stories for years to come.
Now, I've been asked, "Are you ever going to extend this?" I may extend this story one day, but Kilian and Emilee wouldn't be the focus. I would either make it a story about Kilian and Emilee's siblings, and their struggles to have a relationship, or about Keeton, Haylee, and their new niece.
But, even if it's not an extension to A Bagon's Tale, I know that Kilian and Emilee will appear again at some point.
Well, I have another story to work on, but, as I always sign off, this is SSGSSJ2, saying to you, Happy Reading!
