50 (On Ice)

[The Video clicks on, with Minnie standing outside of the Saffron City Gym. She recently took on Sabrina, in order to get Fly for... well, she's just about to talk about that. Scrooge the Noctowl is perched on her shoulder, proudly holding the badge in his beak.]

Hello, everyone. My friends may have noticed that for several months now, I keep going back and forth between Goldenrod and Saffron, in an attempt to get my stolen Pokemon back. But... I've come to realize that I've been focusing on what I lost so much, I've been neglecting those I have. I must go back to Olivine... to the house that Mickey wanted. It's where I belong. And I know that the ones lost to me are in good hands.

But that doesn't mean I'll never go anywhere! Now that my Pokemon can fly, I can visit anyone anywhere! All you have to do is drop me a line, and I'd be more than happy to come and see you.

[For those who want Action, you can catch Minnie doing some last minute shopping at the Pokemart before she's ready to go.]

[Private - Ivan.]

Thank you for taking care of them. Until the time comes when you change your mind and return them to me, I know I can trust you with them. I won't tell anyone what you did.

Having to submit to others whims is nothing new to me. Is not worth the pity.

I am just sick of changing. I am sick of being torn down just to be rebuilt into something that is apparently wanted, because people are too fickle and stupid to realise all that they want is the things they can not have.

I was meant to be perfect this time. Ours was perfect system. So many were sacrificed for perfection...

... Now those were sacrificed for nothing. Humanity, it sickens me.

Nothing and no one can be really perfect. No one should have demanded that of you.

[gosh, she just wants to give you so many hugs. She's probably even tearing up at this.]

No one can blame you for feeling the way you do. I'm so sorry.

I would not be so sure- I have been more than heinous to achieve perfection. We all have. Am sure there are others that feel much worse.

[Say, the rest of Eastern Europe- if he thought she'd know about them he'd have alluded more, but she's from a completely different world so-]

Is what we do where I am from Tsarina- we listen to our orders and obey them. Most demand perfect society, and we do utmost to deliver.

I suppose this is just another failure.

Do not pity me woman, I do not need it. this is not the first time it has happened.

You're not a failure! You've done everything you can for them! You are a hard worker, and you believe in what you do.

We all believe in goals, if only a little- is never enjoyable thing when fighting for things one is not believing in.

However it also makes it any less of a failure. I just have to get up and try again.

I am so bored of this cycle though, I am thinking.

[He seems to think of something, his next text curt and to the point.]

Tell this to anyone and will twist face from skull. Is very serious danger.

I already promised you I wouldn't tell anyone. Your secrets will always be safe with me.
