This choice: had second thoughts and bailed out - she was his friend! • Go Back...Chapter #4Getting Lyra in on it by: gaydud   As much fun as you were having, you knew deep down that what you were doing was wrong. Lyra has been a good friend for many years. Even if you wanted her to be a little more than a friend, this was not the way to go about it. Looking down at your new body, you sigh as you pull out the Pokégear and hit return.
Blacking out for just a second, you open your eyes to the route just outside your town. A bunch of familiar feelings hit you all at once, and you can tell you're back in your own body. It appears you didn't make it too far out of town, and naturally you want to apologize to Lyra for what you did. Making her way back to her house, you give it a knock. After waiting a few seconds, Lyra opens the door.
"Oh, hey Ian. Did you forget something else?" Lyra asks.
"No. In fact I came here to confess to something." you admit.
"Really? What's going on?" Lyra wonders, confused at what Ian may be talking about.
"Well I just wanted to say... I am the one that possessed your body. I understand that it may be hard to forgive me for what I've done but I truly am sorry. I really hope I can make this up to you eventually." you exclaim, hoping Lyra won't be too mad about it.
Lyra just looks back at you quizingly. "...What on Earth are you talking about?" Lyra questions.
"Well you know how somebody possessed you just a few minutes ago?" you start to explain.
"Uuuh, no??" Lyra states. "That's not even possible."
At this point you kind of start to recognize that Lyra has no memory of the possession at all. In fact, you're starting to realize you probably sound insane. Explaining this was gonna be tricky if you couldn't just show her. Of course, that's when you get an idea. You keep on rambling nonsense out while behind your back, you enter Lyra's number into your Pokégear.
"Calm down for a second Ian. I have to take this call real quick." Lyra says. Opening her Pokégear, Lyra greets the person on the phone, "Hello?".
Before you move to Lyra's body, this time you hit the Body Swap button. Once again everything goes black and you find yourself opening your eyes... in Lyra's house. Well, the first part of your plan worked, and it wouldn't take long to confirm the second part. You see your old body open it's eyes before looking at you.
"Excuse me, what?" Lyra says, confused as to why she was looking at her own body in front of her. She also seemed a bit shocked by the voice that came out when she spoke. This caused her to look down, when she really got to take notice of what had truly happened. She slowly looks back up at her old body and quietly says "Ian?" as if she is guessing, not really sure if she's right.
"Yes Lyra?" you reply, wanting to help her through this.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" Lyra shouts out.
"Shh not so loud Lyra." you add. "So I hope you are starting to believe me about possessing your body."
"I... guess I have to at this point." Lyra admits. "But how exactly are you doing this?"
"Well that part is a bit of a challenge to explain." you state. You then go through the whole story up to this point. Your father giving you an application, finding Marill's ribbon which was why you called Lyra, meeting up with your old body, and coming back to try and apologize. As you go through the story you notice Lyra sometimes not paying as much attention to you as her newly acquired body. It is a bizarre shift of reality so you can't even blame her. Besides it seems like she got the gist of it.
"So you thought it would be a good idea to take my body so you could demonstrate this to me?" Lyra puzzles, still not really knowing if she is comfortable with this.
"Well would you really believe me any other way? I mean I sounded like a lunatic when I first came to your door." you retort.
"That's true I guess." Lyra admits. "But do you think we could..."  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
