The young human is alone upon returning. That’s strange, thinks Rotom. The human was going to bring Cyrus back. If she hasn’t brought Cyrus back, what is she doing here? Does she need more potions? Are her Pokemon hurt? No, no, none of that seems to be the case.
She’s wearing such a miserable expression, and she won’t meet Rotom’s eyes. Cynthia, the very powerful trainer, won’t either. Everyone is far too silent and still. Why? What’s the matter?
Did they give up? They can’t give up. They have to get Cyrus back. They said they would bring him back. Rotom tries to lead the young trainer back the way she came, but she shakes her head.
“I’m sorry, Rotom,” she says. “I’m sorry.”
Sorry for what? She didn’t do anything wrong. She just needs to go back and get Cyrus.
“We have to leave,” she tells Rotom softly. “O… Okay?”
No! Not yet! Cyrus is still back there! What is she thinking?
Rotom flies further back, trying to get her to follow, and all the young trainer does is watch with sad eyes.
“Cyrus isn’t coming back,” she says.
