[Video/Action for those in Olivine!

Minnie is sitting on the front porch of her home/inn, with Walt the Charizard sleepily resting his head on her lap. She strokes his 'horns' as the Pokegear turns on.]

Hello, everyone. I hope you're all having a good day. I was just talking with a new friend, and she made me want to do 'that' again... By which I mean, share fairy tales! My home has so many fairy tales, and I love telling them to others. So if you'd like to hear one, just say so, and I'll spin a story with you!

He realized what he had to do and found his purpose in life: he began building a bridge to connect the island to the city.

At first, everyone mocked and laughed at him, saying he was crazy for even trying something like that! But the man didn't give up; he continued his work even though others told him it's no use. Observing the man's determination, slowly, people started changing their minds. They thought that maybe, if they all helped him and worked together, they really could do it! More and more people joined in and the construction was quickly becoming reality. Finally, they saw a ray of hope in their lives with no apparent future.

... However, there were people who didn't like that.

What a wonderful way to bring people together! But how could people not like it?

The city didn't want for the island to be free, so the security forced the construction to stop and put the man who'd started it on the top of their most wanted list. Once again, people of the island lost all their hope -- they were certain that all was lost and one person who had managed to guide them towards freedom would rot in jail.

Surely enough, the security soon caught up with the man and cornered him on the half-finished bridge. At that moment, he faced a difficult choice: he could either turn himself in and spend the rest of his life in cell... or he could become a legend. He chose the latter and jumped.

That man, unbound by any law or common sense... flew.
