"Ok. Now that part had me thrown big time."

Carmen smiled and handed a photo album to her fiancee. "You'll believe after you look at these.

Ranger looked through a number of the photos. "This is....crazy."

"Nothing against anyone, but I still haven't completely gotten used to this 'second life, thing."

Masako stirred, snuggling up against her mother.

"Ever since Carmen was married to Kratos, things haven't been normal." Theo muttered.

"Now Kratos, I've met. Not normal by a long shot. What's his story, anyway?"

Theo looked out a window. "We'd rather not talk about it. He's the reason why Carmen lost her first life."

"That's shady. Man. Just what is that guy? He's certainly not human."

Carmen avoided eye contact with anyone, the memories of her first life leaking out from the back of her mind, filling her head.

Ranger looked away, not wanting to stir up any more bad memories.

Carmen slowly got up, putting her sleeping toddler on the chair, and headed outside.

Carmen sat in Skary's old stall, trying not to cry.

"Who used to be here?" a mysterious voice asked from behind her.

"An old friend." She said, moving her hand over the hey.

"What was your friend like?" The mysterious figured approached, revealing itself to be a Skarmory.

"She was a Skarmory..." She said. "My first Pokemon..."

The Skarmory gently nuzzled her, trying not to cut her, while trying to comfort her. "What was her name?"
|

"Skary..."
|

"Skary," it said to itself. "I have a question for you. Would it be ok for me to make a nest in this stall? I need to lay my eggs soon. If one of the babies is a female, you may have her and name her Skary."

Carmen nodded. "Ok."

"Thank you," the Skarmory said, gathering hay to form a makeshift nest. After she had made one that looked secure enough that the eggs wouldn't fall out, she perched atop it to lay her eggs. "Just in time."

"This isn't the first time I've done this, but it sure isn't any easier." Without another word, or even an expression of pain on her face, she laid 3 eggs rather quickly, then sighed with relief.

Carmen winced, the twins becoming really active.
