Maybe not for you, but for those who've lost loved ones on that day, they feel like 9/11 is something that is more commercialized with these souvenirs rather than something to remember as a sad memory. Now I'm not saying the museum should have no souvenirs, but you gotta look at it at a different perspective to see why others are hurt by this, and I can understand why some would be bothered by this.

~Tokyo University: Meeting Room~ Marius had set up a meeting with his college political group to discuss the upcoming elections in Japan for Prime Minister, and to plan with his group on convincing students on campus to register to vote, as well as encouraging others to vote for Harold Saxon. While Marius was busy speaking to his group, Marius's roommate, Brock, was busy doing Marius a favor by preparing food for the group in the room. "... And so, we must do whatever we can to ensure the reign of Harriet Jones ends this year! This November, make sure to vote for the candidate who will put Japan back on track! Vote... for Harold Saxon!" Marius said, ending his speech to his political group, which was greeted with an applause from the students attending, "Now then, I'm sure you're all hungry. Luckily, my good friend Brock had enough free time to come and prepare an appetizing meal for us all. Enjoy!" As the students walked over to tables with food, Marius approached Brock. "Brock, I just wanted to thank you once again for this, especially considering your views on politics. It really means a lot to me personally," Marius told Brock. "No problem Marius. After all, what're friends for?" Brock replied. Marius smiled in return, appreciating Brock's loyalty. Meanwhile, while noticing the many students in attendance, Brock noticed one of the students was an attractive girl around his age. Seizing the moment, Brock rushed towards the girl, held her hand, and with his face red, began to flirt, "Hi, I'm Brock. I don't usually vote in elections, but you certainly have my vote for the most beautiful eyes on campus." The girl was shocked by the way Brock was acting, and wasn't sure how to respond. Face-palming, Marius grabbed Brock's ear, and dragged him away from the girl. "My apologies for Romeo over here Miss," Marius told the girl. ------------------------------------------------------ ~Inside Government Building (Private Room)~ Once Saxon and King Candy entered an empty private room away from the banquet, Harold said, "Here we are your highness. Now then, onto business. I was hoping... oh dear, what's that on your head?" "Huh, oh dear, what is it?" Candy asked, not sure what Harold was referring to. Observing King Candy's head for a few seconds, Harold Saxon pulled a strand of hair from the monarch's head. "Oh, never mind. False alarm. It was just hair," Harold Saxon said as he walked over to a closet in the room. "Ohhohoho, what a relief," King Candy replied as he placed his drink on a table, "You can eat it if you want. My hair is made of cotton candy. Sugar-free though." Spoiler: BGM "You don't say..." Harold commented as he slowly opened the closet, and making sure King Candy wasn't looking, gave the strand of hair to someone's hand inside. Once Harold closed the closet door, King Candy asked, "Now then Harold, what did you want to talk about?" "Ah, that's right... I almost forgot," Saxon replied, "Your highness, if it wouldn't be too much trouble, I was hoping the proud nation of Kuwait would provide supplies such as weapons, money, and oil to the Crystal Order." After a few seconds, King Candy laughed hard at what Harold asked, thinking it was a joke. "Ohhohoho, good one Mr. Saxon. Asking me to provide help to the very group your government swore to destroy. You are such a kidder, hehe," King Candy cried, still laughing. Harold Saxon, however, wasn't laughing. Instead, he silently grinned, as though there was more to what he said. "H-Harold?" King Candy said, noticing the Interior Minister's strange behavior. Suddenly, the closet door opened, and out came what appeared to be a doppelganger of King Candy... "Harold, what's going on?" King Candy asked. "Surprised? I think you should be," the doppelganger said. King Candy was so shocked he didn't have the energy to speak. Walking over to King Candy, Harold Saxon said, "I told you your highness, the Crystal Order is in need of supplies from an oil-rich country such as Kuwait. Reason I'm asking you for this is because... spoiler alert... my step-daddy happens to be the leader of the Crystal Order. Oh yeah, true story. But knowing your commitment in fighting the group, you weren't the kind of person we wanted running a country like Kuwait. So that's where Turbo right here comes in. You see, Turbo has the ability to change his form to other individuals, and even retains their voices. He could run your country, and no one could even tell he's a fake. But... it comes with one itty bitty little problem. You see, in order for him to remain like this, he needs a piece of your DNA, like a strand of hair, replaced every week. Hence why we need you alive." King Candy couldn't believe the words he just heard, as well as the fact that Harold Saxon, a high ranking official in the Japanese government and candidate for Japanese Prime Minister, was associated with the Crystal Order. Noticing the door on his left, King Candy rushed towards it, and tried opening it, but it was locked. "Oh, trying to leave already your highness? I didn't even introduce you to my other friends," Harold said as he snapped his fingers, and two creatures appeared out of nowhere next to Candy, and grabbed the Middle Eastern monarch. "Allow me to introduce you to the Crystal Order's allies, our compadres, our partners in crime, whatever you want to call them... the S-types." "Y-you won't get away with this!" King Candy said before being teleported away with the S-types. Grabbing King Candy's drink, Turbo and Harold Saxon both raised their glasses, with Turbo saying, "Turbo-tastic." Turbo and Saxon then left the room, and headed back into the banquet, with the rest of the guests unaware of what had transpired inside that room.

Hearing a familiar and friendly voice, Serena and Fennekin turn around and find Calem with a Sylveon. "Calem!" Serena happily called out to her rival, running towards him while followed by her Fennekin. Serena noticed quite a few things about Calem that didn't seem right, like him wearing a hat and having a Sylveon, but none of that really mattered to her at the moment, because Calem's very presence eased Serena's troubled mind for the time being. "Nice hat," Serena said once she and Fennekin reached Calem and Sylveon, "Listen, there's no time to explain, but we gotta get away right now before that thing attacks us!" The walking spear was approaching them, with Fennekin constantly using her Flamethrower attack on it, only for the spear to reassemble itself over and over again. Once it was close to them though, the spear was attacked from behind from a lightning attack of some sort. This time, the spear didn't reassemble itself after breaking off into many crystalline shards. "What the..." Serena said, surprised at what had just transpired. Trying to spot where the attack came from, Serena and Fennekin notice a hooded figure wearing a black cloak approach them... "Wh-who are you?" Serena asked the hooded figure, reaching for Xerneas's Pokeball in her bag in case things were about to get ugly. Once he was a few feet from them, the hooded figure stopped walking and replied, "Just think of me... as a friend." "A friend?" a confused Serena questioned. "Indeed," the figure answered, "Saving you from that monster wasn't the only reason I came here. I have come to warn the two of you." Serena walked towards the figure until she could see part of his face. She wasn't entirely sure if he could be trusted, but seeing as how he saved them from the walking spear, Serena was hoping he could be trustworthy enough to provide some answers. But one thing bothering Serena was the fact that he covered his face as though he didn't want Serena and Calem to know his identity. "First of all, if you really are a 'friend' like you say you are, why cover your face? I mean, it's not like you're hiding something from us," Serena asked the figure. Grinning, the figure began to remove his hood, commenting, "You make an excellent point, Serena..." Once the figure revealed his long silver hair and amber-orange eyes, Serena was shocked, not by his appearance, but at the fact that he knew her name. "Wait wait, hold on a sec," Serena said, walking back-and-forth, trying think of all the questions she wanted answers to, "Ok... lets start... What were you gonna warn us about? Where the heck are we? What's going on here exactly? What was that thing that attacked us? And how do you even know my name?" "Patience my dear," the figure replied, "You will get all the answers you desire by doing one simple task. There was a message left on your Holo Caster as well as Calem's, instructing you to go towards the center of the forest. Go there, and you will find all the answers that you seek." Serena was disappointed at getting virtually no information from the figure other than to go to the center of the forest as instructed a little while ago by the other mysterious figure. "And if we don't?" Serena asked. The figure turned around, and started walking, saying, "Then you will have no choice but to keep fighting monsters like that spear that attacked you." Serena was now lost on what to do. It was either obeying instructions from someone she wasn't sure she could trust, or to continue fighting those monsters unsuccessfully over and over again. The figure summoned a shadowy portal and was headed towards it. "Wait!" Serena called out to the figure, "What's your name?" Before disappearing into the portal, the figure turned around to face Serena, Calem, Fennekin, and Sylveon, and replied with his name, "Xemnas." Xemnas then disappeared along with the portal, leaving Serena confused more than ever. "Xemnas..." Serena said to herself, trying to make sense of him, and wondering whether or not he was human. Fennekin went over to Serena, who picked her up and asked her, "Any idea what's going Fenny?" Fennekin shook her head in response, which made Serena chuckle a bit, something she hadn't done much of since defeating Lysandre in Geosenge Town. Facing Calem and his Sylveon, Serena asked, "So Calem, what do you think?"

BGM It had been several days since Serena successfully defeated Diantha and became the Kalos Pokemon Champion. After a long and tiring journey, Serena decided it was time to go back home to Vaniville Town. Serena was more than excited to finally see her mother and Rhyhorn again. Ever since the events of Geosenge Town, Serena wanted to hug her mother very tight and tell her how much she loved her. Walking through Route 7 along with her starter Pokemon, Fennekin, the two passed by the Battle Chateau. Serena and Fennekin both reminisced the days they spent here together, training hard every time to get stronger to be able to face any challenges that the two would encounter. 'Good times,' Serena thought to herself. Suddenly, Serena and Fennekin felt an earthquake around them. And before either of them could react, Serena and Fennekin started to feel drowzy. A few seconds later, both were lying on the ground in a deep sleep... Slowly opening their eyes, Serena and Fennekin looked at the scenery around them, shocked at the fact that not only it wasn't Route 7, but that it didn't seem like a place found on Earth. "Fennekin, I get the feeling we're not in Kalos anymore," Serena commented. The two were in what seemed to be a forest full of huge mushrooms. While still confused as to what was happening, Serena heard a ringing from her Holo Caster. Grabbing it from her bag, Serena noticed the Holo Call was from a mysterious blue-hooded figure. He demanded help in not only saving the world, but the very fabric of existence, and asked Serena to meet him at the center of the forest. Confused even more, Serena decided to ignore the figure. Last time she met someone claiming to try to save the world and humanity, the person insisted on doing so by committing some kind of massive holocaust of humans and Pokemon. "Not this time," Serena said as she put the Holo Caster back into her bag, but while doing so, noticed something was missing. And something was indeed missing. Serena noticed she only had two Pokeballs in her bag, and that three were missing. Shocked by this, Serena began to hyperventilate. Worried about her trainer, Fennekin approached Serena and tapped on her foot, wondering why Serena was acting the way she was. Calming down a bit, Serena looked down at Fennekin, and told her, "I don't know how Fenny, but three Pokeballs are missing! The only Pokemon with me now are you, Hawlucha and Xerneas. Looks like I won't be able to Mega-Evolve for now... or ever..." Serena and Fennekin then noticed crystalline shards appear in front of them, swirling and swirling, until they joined together, and formed into a walking spear that was ready to attack them. BGM "You have got to be kidding me," Serena complained, "Fennekin, hit it with your Flamethrower!" Jumping in front of the spear, Fennekin unleashed her Flamethrower attack towards the walking spear, which shattered into many different crystalline shards, only for the shards to reassemble once again. Backing off slowly, Serena and Fennekin were now really worried. "This is bad..." Serena said.
