“I want to forget.” Red whispered. “Please, Lance. Help me…”

The Dragon Master looked torn. “Red… surely it didn’t turn out that badly between you two?” He ignored Yellow’s sniffles and Pikachu’s cries of outrage. They were none of his concern.

“It’s just that…” Red shook his head. “Everyone expected us to be so happy and perfect together, but it’s just not right! Yellow deserves better, and I… I don’t want to hurt her.” He almost whispered the last words.

Lance raised an eyebrow, fingertips glinting with blue light. “If you’re sure about this…”

“I’m sure.”

The last thing Red saw was Yellow sob and rush forwards, but when he awoke, he felt curiously refreshed and happy, though he was a bit concerned when he saw his Aerodactyl flying a mating dance with another one.

Surely he had missed something, but what? He glanced around, seeing no one in the clearing aside from Lance, who was reading a manga, of all things.

Had he come here for a Pokemon Battle and gotten knocked out? Probably. He watched as their Aerodactyls flew for a while longer, before retreating to a cavern, and decided that he’d just wait until Aeroy was finished before he went home.

I assume Lance has some degree of mind-control powers in the Pokemon Special manga… though why Red would ask him instead of Giovanni for help is up for grabs. And yes, I cannot bring myself to write Specialshipping…
