JAMES' P.O.V.

Just as we reach a road that leads from the complex to Ryme City, a few police cars appear.

Mew hides in the grass.

Soon, Hope and I are surrounded.

The officers point their guns at us, and I break into a cold sweat.

My heart is pounding against my chest.

"Put your hands in the air, and slowly approach the vehicle.", one of the officers order me.

I slowly put my hands in the air, and then calmly walk towards the officer who told me to walk to him.

"Detective Johnson?!", one of the officers says in disbelief.

I turn my head towards the voice.

My eyes widen.

It's Detective Yoshida.

"Lower your weapons!", Detective Yoshida orders the other three officers.

They look at each other in confusion, but they slowly lower their guns.

Detective Yoshida walks over to me.

"What the hell are you doing way out here?!", Detective Yoshida says in shock, and anger.

"I'm sorry Detective. I was trying to figure out what happened to Detective Goodman.", I explain.

Detective Yoshida looks into my eyes, searching them to see if I'm lying or not.

He realizes that I'm telling the truth.

"Detective Goodman is dead son. So stop-", but I cut him off.

"With all due respect sir, I refuse to accept that Detective Goodman is dead until I have solid proof of his death.", I say with a calmness in my voice that's completely different from how I actually feel.

Hope walks over to us, her ears pulled back.

Detective Yoshida looks at Hope, then back at me.

"You're not under arrest, but you are being detained until further questioning. Is that understood Detective?", Detective Yoshida says.

"Understood.", I say.

"Good. Now get your Pokemon, and get in the back of my car.", Detective Yoshida orders me.

He puts handcuffs on my wrists.

"Let's go Hope.", I say.

Hope looks at Detective Yoshida, then back at me.

She nods.

Detective Yoshida opens the back left door to his police car, and I get in, with Hope hopping in after me.

It's very cramped in the back, but I don't complain about it.

My heart beats rapidly, and I continue to sweat.

Hope lays down next to me, pressing her body against my left leg, and she wraps her ribbons around my left arm.

I calm down a little, but Hope doesn't let go.

"I know you need me to help calm you down. And until we get to where we're going, I'm going to continue to hold on to you. Besides, I hate seeing you so stressed out.", Hope says.

I don't say anything.

She tightens her ribbons around my left arm slightly.

"Everything will be okay my love.", she says.

"I hope so.", I whisper.

As Detective Yoshida drives back to Ryme City, I can't help but worry about Mew, Tim, Lucy, and Pikachu.

'Wherever they are, I hope they're safe.', I think.
