Sixth Sacrament - Assumption
[ The video comes on, showing a beautiful, vast meadow as night falls. The Sun's already set, the sky starting to darken and the stars slowly emerging from behind the daytime veil of blue. And in the field, there's a bright, white fire, seemingly growing bigger in an oddly self contained way. Walter stood off to the side, watching the fire with clear awe written on his face.
The fire grew and began to fade, revealing that in it's centre was a Marowak. The Marowak stood tall, thin with dark scales. It's eyes were pure silver, glowing in the half-dark. And on it's foreheard...the Halo of the Sun was inscribed, more complete than the simple pattern Walter had painted on his Cubone. Assumption looked over himself, before turning his gaze up to Walter.]
And he began to laugh. A rich, deep laugh that he hadn't used since coming to the Pokeworld. The video cuts out with Darkness leaving the Gear on the floor, flying over to land on Walter's shoulder and caw joyously. ]

Assumption...
[ The name held a lot of barely contained emotion, awe, pride and joy painted on Walter's face. Assumption recognised it and grinned, running forward to embrace his trainer. Walter crouched down and picked him up, spinning him around in a circle (revealing the patterns of bones on Assumption's back) and holding him to his chest.

Nobody cared about me before coming here, either.
Except for Mommy.
But people here are different.

[ This wasn't strictly new. He had felt this feeling before, when the Team Skull goons had been manhandling Wrath. But it was different and a bit difficult to put into words. This was the closest he could manage.
I care about you too.
It was...a little scary. And made him feel like he was on the edge of a tall building, with vertigo. But it wasn't...bad...to feel. Aside from the fear and vertigo. ]

Me too!
We'll look out for each other.

I won't be far. I promise.
