[ Johto can probably finally get a break from their usual music playing in the background.

Mister Pink the Jigglypuff and Liana the Mawile are at it again. They have taken Lacus's gear again without her permission. Lacus's video of her singing was coming out and they wanted to make sure that everyone would be able to see it. At the moment, Lacus was walking around Goldenrod looking for those two.

Mister Pink was first to appear on the screen. To most people, he may sound like he is talking nonsense --- but in Pokespeak: "Lacus-sama's performance is playing. Please watch it!"

They pointed the camera towards the multiple screens to show a video of Lacus Clyne's performance on screen. It was a video of her performing in one of the cafes that she worked for. ]

In this quiet night, I'm waiting for you
During that time, your smile has faded away
Now that a little time has passed,
Fond memories start to resurface ...

[ A little after the song ended, the sound of footsteps interrupted and a relieved voice spoke. ]

There you two are ... I was so worried about you.

I was afraid you got lost --- ara? What have you two been up to?

Oh? But why?

Because there is ... something else I thought I should do.

Ah.

And are you happy with your decision?

[ She looked back at the two year. Her years with Kira and the children. Lacus positively glowed. ]

I never regretted one moment of it.

[He smiles.] That's what really matters, then.

You haven't lost your touch in the singing arts either, or it does not seem like it from what I saw on the screen.

[ Smiling back. ]

What I really want ... is for people to be happy and make people smile.

I learned while I was young that the fastest way to do that is through music.

That's really beautiful. Not to mention pure.

I hope everything goes well for you then. I know music did a lot to cheer me up when I was small.

It did? But I am not surprised ...

Your people ... have always made such beautiful lullabies.

Oh? The Chinese? Yes, they have, haven't they. I remember the ones my nursemaids used to sing to me, and then the ones I sang to my siblings when they were small.

Now that they're all grown up, I usually play my bamboo flute now, aru.

Bamboo flute?

If it is alright ... I would very much like to listen to you play it someday.

I'm sure you will and I always enjoy playing it. It's so relaxing.

I've been thinking recently that perhaps, once I've collected all the badges, both in Johto and Kanto, I will purchase a house here. That way I can get that guzheng from the music shope in this city.

That sounds wonderful ... if you ever need help, please don't be afraid to tell me. I have ... experience with music. I may be able to help.

A music shop just sounds lovely ...

Ah, speaking of music... Did you happen to wake up around Christmas to find a wrapped gift from an unknown sender?

This is a strange question, I know, but that was what happened to me so I was curious if anyone else had a similar experience, aru.

Hnmm? Oh, yes. I did ... it isn't with me right now ... but it is quite a surprise.

Mine is back in my room, it's a red and gold music box. If he was here I would have suspected this as Tino's doing, but he isn't.

I wonder if it was that Santa Clause character I always hear about in America when I visit during December.

That sounds beautiful ... As for my gift, I will show him to you one day. He isn't ... exactly mine. He belongs to my boyfriend from back home.

But I believe that may have something to do with it ... Johto is quite a strange place, and maybe it wanted to celebrate Christmas with us.

Oh? I'm very curious as to what it is now. I will have to show you my music box someday as well, it has such a nice tune, aru.

I promise I will introduce you ... you might like him. And he has been wonderful company since I got him ...

... and I'd like to hear your music box too. I love the lullabies of China. Maybe it can inspire me for my next song.

[He chuckles.] It almost sounds as though you're talking about a puppy~

I would be honored if it does.
