Lavender Town, the Noble Purple Town. Formally known among citizens of Kanto as the Pokémon Graveyard. Years ago, the bodies of deceased Pokémon were buried in the infamous Pokémon Tower, but when it was renovated and rebuilt into a radio tower, their graves were respectfully moved to another location in the somberly quiet town.  Right now, a certain gym leader landed in front of the town's Pokémon Center, recalling his Pidgeot when he landed. ...time sure flies... he thought, as he glanced towards the current location of the deceased Pokémon's graves; the House of Memories. |

The door to the House of Memories opened up for an old man, holding a hat, stepped outside...

He sighed, speaking to someone behind him. "Thank you very much, Mr. Pokemon... you're doing a fine service to these poor things..."

Blue blinked, as he watched the man exit the building. ...Blaine... he thought, as he began walking towards the house. Wonder if he has someone here, too...

As he placed his hat back on, he noticed a fellow Gym Leader walking towards them. "Hmm? Oh, is that you, Blue?"

"Yeah, it's me." Blue said, as he gave Blaine a nod. "What's up? It's rare to see you on the mainland these days."

"Eh, I'm taking a rest from Gym Duties and having a good look around the Kanto region," He said, stepping down the stairs and putting his hat on. "I was passing through this town and I decided to pay my respects..."

"Hm. What a coincidence. I was about to do the same thing." Blue mused, as he approached the building."

"Really? It's too much of a coincidence... but, I'm not complaining..." He sighed. "It worries me that one day, I might have to come here for a different reason when my Pokemon..."
He couldn't finish it off...

"Dies." Blue finished, as he closed his eyes. "I know... it happened to me once. Not the brightest day of my life, let me tell you that much..."

"...?!" He turned to Blue. "You... had a Pokemon who passed away...?"

"...yeah..." Blue nodded, as he sighed. "It was my Raticate... got him after crossing the Nugget Bridge as a Rattata."

"...after I left the S.S. Anne before it sailed off..." Blue muttered, as he scratched the back of his neck. "Well... I went to Saffron, and got tangled up with Team Rocket there..." Then, he closed his eyes. "All of my Pokémon took a beating... but Raticate ended up on the wrong end of a Hyper Beam."

"Don't be." Blue replied, as he folded his arms. "It was my fault, anyway... I messed up. I was too quick to leave Vermillion, not buying any potions or anything..." Gritting his teeth, he dug his fingers into his arms. "...but it's been years. I don't think she'd want me to fuss over it..."

"I suppose she doesn't... I'm sure she would be proud of you, Blue... you're now one of the best Kanto trainers and a powerful Gym Leader... and you're now close to your Pokemon..."

"Yeah... but still, gotta pay my respects." Blue said, as he began walking into the house. "After all... if not for her, I'd have been the one on the wrong end of a Hyper Beam..."

"...yeah. It's something I'll never forget..." Blue muttered, as he stopped walking, not looking at Blaine. "...later on, though, I took down the goon who got her killed. Hyper Beam or not, an Arbok doesn't stand a chance against a solid Earthquake."

He nodded. "I've heard you sent a best Rocket agent to prison during my time at Team Rocket... back then, I thought you were doing your duty... but now..."
He glanced at Blue. "I'll be heading over to the Pokemon Center... you can pay your respects to your Raticate now..."
