Then, Speed regained consciousness.

"Big bro, we're gonna be uncles!" Flare told Speed.

"So, Michael? Where are your parents? I'd love to meet them!"

"I...don't have parents anymore." I answered Mollie.

"I'm sorry to hear that. I shouldn't have asked." Mollie said. "Since you saved my daughter, how would you like to be my son?"

I blush a lot. "I...I'd be honored!" I stammered.

"Well then, welcome to our family, Michael!" Mollie said.

"So, Mollie?" I asked.

"No, Sweetie, call me Mom." Mollie suggested.

"Okay. So, Mom?" I asked.

"Yes, Sweetie?" Mollie asked.

"Do you have any siblings? I'd love to meet them!" I asked.

"Well, Sweetie, I have a brother named Ralph and a sister named Dawn." Mollie told me.

As soon as Mollie told me about her siblings, a male Umbreon and a female Jolteon walked into our room.

"Ralph & Dawn!" Mollie said, hugging the two Eeveelutions.

"Sister!" Dawn said, hugging Mollie.

"How's it going?" Ralph asked Mollie.

"Pretty well. Oh! I also have someone for you to meet!" Mollie said.

"Ralph, Dawn, I'd like you to meet Michael! He saved my daughter's life." Mollie introduced me.

"Wait. He's your adopted son? He's a human." Ralph asked.

"That's pretty cool!" Dawn complimented.

"Nice to meet you, Michael." Dawn said, hugging me.

"Nice to meet you too, Aunt Dawn." I said back.

"Michael! I'm glad you met Uncle Ralph and Aunt Dawn!" Crystal said.

Then, Ralph and Dawn notice Crystal's belly.

"Crystal? Are you pregnant?!" Dawn asks her.

"Yes I am, Aunt Dawn. Thanks to my boyfriend." Crystal answers Dawn.

"Oh my god, Ralph! We're going to be a Great Aunt and Uncle to our Great niece or nephew!" Dawn said to Ralph.

"Is it a boy or girl?" Ralph asked Crystal.

"Umm... Michael and I don't know yet. We'll have to wait and see." Crystal told Ralph.

"Oh! I need to go to Motostoke's Gym to enter the Gym Challenge!" I told everyone. "Anyone want to come with me?"

"I'll come with you, Honey." Crystal told me.

"Us too!" Speed and Flare said.

"Let's go, Sweetie!" Mollie said.

"And we're off!" Dawn said.

We left the Budew Drop Inn and made our way toward Motostoke's Gym. "Wow! There are a lot of Gym Challengers here, Sweetie." Mollie said with awe.

"Let's get us signed up, Honey!" Crystal told me.

"Okay." I replied.

As we were approaching the registration desk, an Arcanine finished signing up for the Gym Challenge, shot us a mean look, and walked out of the Gym.

"I wonder who that was..." I said to myself.

Then, the person at the desk noticed us waiting. "If you're here to register for the Gym Challenge, I'll need to see your endorsement, please." the person at the desk told us.
