【Sequel to Pokémon: Never Forget】
Ribbon is Ash's Pikachu and Serena's Sylveon's young daughter. The blue-eyed Pichu always feels that she doesn't fit in with her family, because she's very weak despite her father being the one and only, most powerf...
"Sanda! S-Sanda... I thought I wouldn't see you again...!", Ribbon wailed running towards her lost friend's arms and sinking her head into his stomach, "I-I thought Mister Z-Zoroark ate you!", her voice came out muffled from the hug and the crying.
"It's alright... it's alright, Bow", the other Pichu told her nervously, backing away but still holding her, "I'm alright... just. Stop crying, okay? You're getting my fur wet...", he chuckled at the end good-naturely.
"Waa...", Ribbon's blue, teraful eyes turned to him, as she became frustrated at his remark, "I'm s-sorry...".
"I-it's okay! It's okay...! I didn't mean it like that! Please", he raised both hands as he gave up in trying to joke, "Don't be sad... dang. I hate sad Bow-Eared Pichu!", tears started forming on his OWN eyes, "Dang!", he cursed again as he waved his arms.
And now the TWO of them were crying.
"I-I promise", Sanda said between sobs, "I won't leave suddenly again! I'll tell you... so you won't get sad, Ribbon!".
"...".
"...".
Silence, pure silence. After he uttered the last word. That's when he knew... he messed up.
"D-did... did you just call me--".
"Bow! I meant, Bow! Ribbons and Bows are pretty much the same! Ha, ha!", he laughed. A really, really fake laugh.
"SANDA! How?!" the non-shiny Pichu exclaimed, shocked, "You never knew my name before, and now you do!".
"He... he?".
"Sanda!", she shoted his name again, now knowing for sure he was hiding something.
"Ri-- Bow... It's nothing--", he put his hands in front of himself defensively but she interrupted him. "You're lying to me! I'm not an idiot, Sanda! I may have been before... 'cause I thought for real your name was 'Raimei' and believed your tomfoolery but I won't fall for the same trick twice!", Ribbon yelled at him angrily, shaking completely.
"...But... I...", he couldn't speak. "You really won't tell me? Do you not trust me...?", little Bow-Eared Pichu sniffled as she slowly passed her arm through her nose to dry it, "I... I trust you. I w-want to know what's in your mind about m-me".
"I'm sorry, Ribbon...", he walked towards her in short, slow steps as he couldn't bring himself to look at her face; surprising her, he hugged her from the side to what she raised her head immediately but a smile didn't appear. . . .
I can't believe it! Sanda knew all along... but he acted like he didn't as well! Why would he do that?! Isn't he my friend?!, Ribbon thought inside her head as she tried to clear it up by running through the prairie, the sun shone over everything making it even more beautiful than usual, but she still felt odd about something.
He knows my name... my parents. Does he know about them, too?, she jumped at the theory before thinking it better, Well... he knows my Papa is Ash's Pikachu. That he won the Kalos League and many other battles so he knows Papa's powerful...
But still, it didn't fully make sense yet.
Is Sanda... a good Pokémon? I mean... a good-hearted Pokémon?
Ribbon stopped on her tracks. Could it be possible? That Sanda was a villain after all.
No... he's my friend. I... like him a lot. He takes care of me, he hugs me, he gives me confidence, he's so cute!..., Ribbon's cheeks stained red suddenly, she stood awkwardly in the midst of the trees and shrubs as she managed her thoughts. If she liked Sanda so much why did she get so nervous and fidgety thinking of him?
It didn't make sense.
Nothing made sense!

"Boooow, here you are!", she quickly turned around as she recognized the young male voice. "S-Suisei!", she squealed at the sight of him. "Are you okay? I think I saw your Pichu friend but I'm not sure I've seen your Jolteon friend...", the shiny Zorua added, sighing deeply and afterwards rubbing his temples.
"You mean S-Sanda...? Yeah, I-I saw him. He's alright", Ribbon squeaked, blushing even more as she answered the older Pokémon's questions.
The Zorua glanced at her, relieved, but noticed her continuous blushing. She had been like that, extremely nervous around him, pink-faced (apart from her naturally pink cheeks) and gaze-avoiding.
Did... did she have a crush on him?
Even if a small one, he wouldn't allow it... Ribbon's so adorable, but no like that... I'm sure she's definitely much younger than me, he chuckled, though he was flattered. He didn't plan to straight out tell her a rejection, but just swish her away subtly.
"Hey", he let his paw fall over her shoulder, "I'm sorry for what my brother did, really... I don't know how much to thank you for letting us stay nevertheless, while I try to change him...".
"Y-you're trying to change him?".
"Yeah. You see... he's done... stuff in the past. Bad stuff. Very bad stuff", Suisei admitted, scratching his neck in discomfort but Ribbon needed to know, "Like taking an Eevee hostage and kidnapping all her friends and fighting her dad and her boyfriend, that kinda stuff".
"Sounds horrible! Totally not familiar at all!".
"Yeah, he needs fixing. But I'm willing to let him be the better version of him. He may not deserve it... but honestly, no one does", Suisei ruffled her head affectionately, "Kid, can you help me?".
K-kid?
"Um, yeah... O-of course!", Ribbon chimed up, trying to not show how confused and hurt she really was. Was she that different to him?
"Great! You're awesome, Bow!", he gave her a sincere grin and turned around and left. -
"Buneary... what are you doing?".
"Opening up his eyes... I don't know what's gotten into him to marry a Sylveon when he could be with me!".
"But... Pikachu doesn't think of you like that, Buneary".
