"W-wait, you're going?" Gen asked, clutching tightly onto his reunion cape as he was gently lowered onto the ground.
"Yep...we still have a world to save," Saltriv answered, giving Gen one last squeeze before letting go.
"B-but..." Gen began, looking down at the ground.
"Don't worry. I'll be back as soon as you wake up. It'll be like no time has passed," Saltriv said, smiling down at him.
"R-really?" Gen asked.
"Yep! And once I'm back...we'll figure things out. It'll be okay," Saltriv said. "I'll stand by you every step of the way."
"T-thank you...thank you..." Gen said, tears beginning to well up in his eyes once more, but this time, not out of sadness.
"Now...I have to go. I'll see you in the morning, Gen," Saltriv said, waving their leaf, before walking back towards Buffet.
"O-ok...bye, Hydreigon...Dill, Vix...and Saltriv," Gen said, waving an arm at the group.
