Pleo paused for a moment, before hesitantly nodding back. "I guess that's fair enough then," he murmured. The Lugia swam along, briefly wondering to himself if perhaps he should talk to Bahamut about Eternatus sometime. After a few minutes, Pleo evened out in the water and looked down towards...

"Huh. But wouldn't you want to remember?" Pleo asked. "If it turned out I used to be a completely person I'd certainly wanna know!"

Pleo tilted his head. "So you really don't remember anything from when you used to be Esper? ... Or know that it even happened?"

Pleo blinked, somehow looking even more confused than before. What did freedom have to do with Polaris' time as Esper? "What... do you mean?"

Pleo did a double take as he glanced back at his passenger puzzledly. "Eh? I mean when you were Esper and that other Pokémon of course!" the Lugia insisted. "Even if you don't remember what is was like to be them, you know that you used to be them at least, don't you? I mean, even after all...

Pleo hesitated a moment, before shaking his head. "I... guess...?" The Lugia continued to swim in silence for a moment, passing a school of Wishiwashi along the way. He couldn't help but wonder if there was another reason that Polaris wasn't telling him. His explanation didn't make much sense...

Pleo began to swim slower as a visible confused look began to form on his face. "Eh? But how is that possible?" he questioned. "Eternatus doesn't know about you, so he wouldn't be there right when you exit your portal, right? And it's not like your portal would stay open for a long time, so he...

"But... how does that mean you can't visit?" Pleo asked. "It's not like you visiting Bahamut would cause Eternatus to break free, right?"

"Huh? Why not?" Pleo glanced back in surprise, when a sudden realization hit him. "Oh, it's because of Eternatus, isn't it?"

"Well, if could do that it'd be really cool!" Pleo exclaimed. "Maybe you could even open portals to other worlds and visit Bahamut!"

Pleo's eyes lit up. Even if Polaris was technically a Shade, he still had the form of a Cosmog. So then... "Oh! Does that mean you can open up those portals as well?"

"Oh? Is it really as simple as not having lungs?" Pleo asked. "Since you make it sound like a pretty harsh place."

Pleo swam ahead as once again a surprised look formed on his face. If space was just like a sea, then did that mean... "Eh? There's water in space as well?"

Pleo gave back a puzzled look. How come Polaris didn't know if he was comfy? Wasn't it just a matter of whether he was feeling nice or not? The Lugia decided not to press the matter, opting to nod back to Polaris instead. "Alright. Let's get going then!" He got up and beat his wings, before...

"Huh? My toes?" Pleo blinked in surprise, before looking down at his feet. The thought hadn't occurred to him given that his toes weren't particularly flexible (unlike a lot of other Flying-Types), but that didn't mean Polaris wasn't on to something. His toes were still flexible enough that he...

"Uh... well... it's not something I usually do," Pleo admitted. "But that's okay! Like I said, I've been trying to master Psychic, so I'm sure I can learn this too! And I can just swim slower, so you don't have to worry about me losing you somewhere in the ocean or any- Oh! Look!" The Lugia...

Pleo paused in thought for a moment as he wondered how else he could best take Polaris underwater with him, when his eyes lit up in realization. "Oh! I think I might have an idea!" he exclaimed. "There's something new I've been trying to learn." The Lugia's eyes began to glow blue, as a...

"Oh?" Pleo blinked, before slowly raising his wing to see how strong Polaris' grip really was.

"Nice to meet you, Polaris!" Pleo chirped. "And of course we can." The Lugia extended his massive wing, gently lowering one its digits towards Polaris, despite being larger than the Shade's entire body. "If you get on my back and hold onto me, maybe I can dive us down to the seafloor?"

Pleo tilted his head as he got closer to Polaris, surprised to see that the other person was a Shade like him. This was Bahamut's Shade, wasn't it? He always thought Esper was kinda mean, and after reforming the Shade had become... weird to say the least. That said, he also knew that Bahamut's...
