Wow! Was all Red said, as his savior set him down carefully, white wings ruffling slightly in an invisible breeze straight from heaven. Long red hair fell to his waist, almost hiding a pair of sparkling golden eyes, and a beautiful robe of rich ruby red covered his chest and thighs.
He had always thought of guardian angels, abut this was the first time he had actually met his face to face.
You should be more careful, Champion. The angels voice sounded like a chorus of twinkling bells, as he laughed lightly.
I will. Red breathed, still awestruck. W-Whats your name?
Me? Im Lance.
Lance
If not for his wings, Lance could have passed for a normal pokémon trainer. Red frowned, pieces starting to click into place.
Youre the person who saved me at the Lake of Rage, right? When the Gyarados was about to kill me?
Quite perceptive of you. I did it in disguise then.
And what about in Cinnabar when everyone was fleeing from Missingno?
I confess to having a hand in that as well.
Youve been watching over me all this time?
Since you were born, yes. Lance settled his wings. Why? It is not uncommon for humans to have guardian angels, though some have guardian pokémon instead.
Im just well, I never said thank you. Red blushed.
Nonsense. It is my duty to keep you safe. I enjoy watching your life. You have a very pure soul.
R-Really?
Really. But now I must be going. Lance paused to brush a kiss across Reds cheek, seeing his crestfallen look. Perhaps youll see me again, but I advise not jumping into so many dangerous situations! Its a lot of work to keep you safe!
Red blushed, and put up a hand to touch the spot as Lance faded from view in a glittering of dust and sparkles.
Subarashii!
So, you finally got to see your human today? Clair asked. How did it go?
Quite wonderfully. Lance responded. Hes so cute!
Clair winked and elbowed her cousin in the ribs. Did you ?
Goodness, no! I just kissed him on the cheek.
But youll see him again?
Of course, if he wants me to. I can visit his dreams, and hes such an accident-prone child that its impossible not to guard him all the time.
Im happy for you then!
Lance nodded.
Meanwhile, back on Earth, Red healed his pokémon at the Pokemon Center and hoped to see Lance again soon.
