Chapter Text
True smiled as she flew through the Elytra course with Pixl and Zloy right behind her. It was great having friends her age now.
"Come on! Let's finish this then we can go meet the new person who just moved in!" True exclaimed, flying perfectly through another ring.
"This is hard!! How are you able to do this so flawlessly!!" Zloy groaned, hitting the corner of the ring.
"Cuz she's an avian that's how! Avian's are natural born fliers." Pixl explained, barely making it through the ring.
"Come on!"
True smiled as she finished writing her score down on a sign. She was so close to beating Grian's score. She looked over at Zloy and Pixl's scores and held in a laugh.
"That was fun!" True stated, walking backwards towards the edge of the platform.
"True! Be careful!"
True smiled as she "fell" off the platform. Yep she was a little shit to her friends. She flew up.
"Come on! Let's go meet the new person!"
The boys sighed in relief before struggling with their elytras and rockets. Soon enough the trio was flying towards the housing district.
"That's the house!"
True smiled as they walked up to a grey and white house. The three bickered about who should knock, finally agreeing that True would knock.
“Fine!”
True took in a deep breath before knocking on the door. A small bang and tumble could be heard from the other side. The door swung open to reveal a blonde haired girl,silver ears were on her head, a matching silver outfit with a silver and white fluffy tail, but what concerned the three was that she appeared to have been just in an explosion, gunpowder covering her face.
“H-Hello! Evee! OH, I’m sorry for the mess! How can I help you?” The girl asked, smiling.
“Hi! My name is True Symmetry! These are my two best friends, Pixl Riffs and Zloy XP. We were hoping you were our age and maybe wanted to hang out!” True exclaimed, smiling widely.
The girl blinked, her ears twitching. “M-My name is Luna Night. I’m 13. B-but you want to hang out with me?” Luna questioned, seeming shocked.
“Well yeah!” True exclaimed with a big smile, her wings folding and unfolding behind her.
“I-I’ve never had friends… “ Luna mumbled, slowly walking into her house, True, Pixl and Zloy followed her.
The three noticed charring in the house, and that the house seemed to be made of Obsidian. They also noticed how quiet the house was. True placed her hand on Luna’s shoulder, causing Luna to stop her mumble ramble.
“Hey, by the way. W-Where are your parents?” True asked, the boys looking anywhere but at Luna.
“OH, Evee. I left my home 3 years ago. I’m not even from this dimension.” Luna explained, turning to face the three, but looking at her feet.
“What?? Now I’m confused.” Zloy stated, putting his hands behind his head.
“”I think X can help us understand what she’s talking about.” Pixl suggested, jabbing Zloy in the side with his elbow.
“X?” Luna asked, tilting her head.
“Yeah. He’s the admin of Hermitville. And the doctor. Come on!” True exclaimed, grabbing Luna’s arm and dragging her outside.
Luna quickly closed the door behind her, once True had released her arm. She turned around to see True floating in the air and Zloy and Pixl already flying away.
“Come on! Strap on your elytra and let’s go!” True exclaimed with a big grin.
“E-Elytra?” Luna questioned, and suddenly her small golden wings appeared behind her, flapping nervously.
“You’re an avian too??” True exclaimed, extremely happy to meet another avian.
“Y-yea!” Luna stuttered, flapping her wings and getting to where True was.
“Come on! Let’s catch up to the boys!” True smiled.
Once at Xisuma’s base the boys snuck into the opening, the girls following close behind. “He should be in the downstairs doctor’s rooms.” Zloy explained, scrolling through his footage he has.
Yes, Zloy and Pixl have cameras in all the public spaces in Hermitville. They need it to be able to do their weekly Recap videos.
The four made their way downstairs into the doctor’s office area of the base.
“How did you four get in here?”
Luna’s tail stiffened, and she stumbled in her inventory, pulling out sunglasses and placing them on her head.
True smiled. “Ex! We were looking for Xisuma but since you’re a void too maybe you can help us!”
“Hm?”
“This is the newest hermit, Luna Night. She’s not from here.” True explained, only for Luna to tug on her sleeve.
“You didn’t tell me that you knew Voids!! THE Void family!” Luna whispered.
“Did somebody mention us?”
Luna shrieked, hiding behind True, her sunglasses falling to the ground.
“Hi Uncle Xisuma!” True exclaimed, waving at Xisuma.
“Hello True. Hello Pixl, Zloy. And who do we have here?” Xisuma asked, his eyes sparkling with the stars.
“This is Luna Night, she-”
“You’re a young Dimensional Traveler.” Xisuma stated with a smile.
Luna shrieked again, hiding behind True even more. Xisuma frowned. “It’s ok. Luna was it? We aren’t going to hurt you. You seemed to know of our family. Then you must know that we are also Dimensional Travelers too.”
Luna peeked up from behind True. Her bright blue eyes shined. Xisuma smiled.
“Your eyes shine with the bright blue of the day, yet still hold some twinkle from Dimensional Traveling. Come. Let’s answer all of your questions kids.” Xisuma smiled, gently leading the four into the big sitting room.
The group sat at a large round table. Clockwise it went, Xisuma, Luna, True, Pixl, Zloy, and Ex.
"So what does Luna mean when she says she's from another Dimension?" Pixl asked, looking between Xisuma and Ex.
"It means she comes from a different world. Now obviously she isn't from our Dimension or even the nether or end." Xisuma began to explain. “Luna, may I ask what your dimension was like?”
Luna nodded, feeling a bit nervous. “I-I’m from a Pokemon Dimension. But we’re human pokemon, Eevee. S-Sorry. I start sounding like my pokemon when I get nervous. Eevee.” Luna covered her face, embarrassed.
Xisuma smiled, rubbing her back. “It’s alright. How about I ask where your parents are?” Xisuma asked.
“T-They couldn’t follow. I-I’ve been on my own since I was 10. I was the only Dimensional Traveler in my whole family. The first dimension I was in, I ended up getting captured by a mad scientist, he called himself Doc. He was the one who injected me with avian blood. And it was not a fun experience having these wings grow out of my back overnight. I managed to get away and travel through a few dimensions, but I'm scared to go back. For many reasons, I don't want to be captured by the scientist again, and I don't want to be caught in a pokeball by a trainer either. I-I haven’t seen my parents in 3 years.” Luna stuttered, finally removing her hands from her face.
True looked at Pixl and Zloy. Her big brother Doc wouldn't do that to Luna. And True made a mental note to talk with Doc.
Xisuma went wide eyed. "You're here by yourself?" Xisuma questioned, already slightly panicked.
Ex was just shocked, he had never heard of a Dimensional Traveler who was the only one in their family. He had many questions.
"Y-yea. The last place I was in didn't like my TNT practices very much and so I came here." Luna explained, giving a sad smile.
"Ok. Well. I'll be your parent. Me and Ex are Dimensional Travelers and we can help you with learning. And I'm sure your friends here can make sure you or anyone else doesn't get hurt from your TNT practices." Xisuma smiled warmly.
Luna looked up at Xisuma, eyes wide and tears pooling up in them. "R-really? Y-you'd do that?"
"Yea! Plus I think I would enjoy learning about your home dimension." Xisuma smiled, Luna began to cry as she jumped into Xisuma's arms, crying her eyes out.
“There there. Hey True, can you guys go talk to Doc? I want him, Ren, and False to understand Luna’s situation. Especially with her history.” Xisuma stated, hugging Luna close as she cried, rubbing her back soothingly.
“I’ll grab some water.” Ex stated, giving his twin a smile before leading the three out the door.
“You’re going to be ok now. You’re safe.” Xisuma said calmly, cradling Luna against his chest as he rocked soothingly.
Luna’s crying began to slow down. She wiped at her face, slowly looking up at Xisuma.
“Sorry for that Mr Xisuma.” Luna sniffled, wiping her eyes again.
“It’s quite alright, but you don’t have to be formal. You can just call me Xisuma.” Xisuma smiled, causing Luna to smile too.
“C-Can I call you dad?” Luna asked, shyly.
Xisuma smiled widely, kissing the top of Luna’s head. “Of course you can. Do you have a place to live? “ Xisuma asked, leaning back to get a look at Luna’s face.
“Y-Yea, I grabbed an open house in the Modern District. It’s a bit big for me but it has obsidian walls. But um, can I stay here for the next couple nights?” Luna asked, her wings fluttering a bit.
Xisuma smiled. “Of course you can. I have a spare room. We could turn it into your room!” Xisuma exclaimed as Ex walked into the room.
“Here you go Luna.” Ex handed Luna the glass of water.
Luna smiled, taking the glass. “Thank you Mr. Ex."
"You can call me Ex." Ex smiled, ruffling Luna's hair playfully.
Luna giggled before drinking some of the water. Xisuma looked up at his twin brother. The two smiled at each other, happy that they weren’t the only ones who were Dimension Travelers.
Luna finished the water, setting the cup on the table. Xisuma smiled as he carefully moved Luna into her chair before standing up himself.
“Why don’t you go hang out with your friends, I have a couple things to get done here. Then we can get started working on your room. How does that sound?” Xisuma asked, smiling at Luna.
Luna smiled happily. “That sounds fun! But um, where did they go?” She asked, standing up and pushing in her chair.
“I can take you to the Shopping District, they should be at the Stock Market.” Ex stated with a smile.
“O-ok!” Luna smiled, waving goodbye to Xisuma and following after Ex.
Xisuma smiled, waving goodbye to Luna. Once she was out he grabbed his clipboard, walking over to the cabinets and taking inventory. Halfway through the first cabinet he stopped, looking down at his clipboard.
“Holy Enderia, I’m a dad now.”
