Many of you may have moved on from Pokémon and don't remember the original story Between Two Worlds. Don't worry. While this is a retelling, I won't take down the original since it was a stepping stone into the world of writing and lifelong friendships. I myself had moved on from Pokémon years ago, but when I decided to go see Detective Pikachu, which is an amazing movie, I was struck with an inspiration I haven't had in a very long time. Other sources of inspiration for this story I have drawn upon include my favorite video game series Kingdom Hearts.
I was 17 when I first wrote the original story, over 18 years ago. Do the math. I have grown, and I have matured. I learned a lot of lessons from it which later helped shape my Ninja Turtles stories. I have always wanted to redo Between Two Worlds, but I had a major block that prevented me from doing it with a passion until Detective Pikachu. I think it just might have finally been the right time. I am rediscovering the love of what was once my favorite Pokémon, Mewtwo.
So I hope you will enjoy this new take as much fun as I am having writing it. New chapters may come quickly or more slowly depending on my work schedule and life. Please just be patient with me and don't hesitate to let me know what you think.
Thank you.

The sun spread its warm coppery glow over the fields as it sank lower in the horizon. A herd of Tauros grazed greedily on the spongy green grass. A rainbow of wildflowers was sprinkled on the ground like toppings on an ice cream sundae. Spring was in full bloom in the Kanto region and a welcome relief from the long, cold winter behind it.
The branches of nearby trees that dotted the property line swayed slightly in the warm breeze, rustling their leaves noisily. The wind playfully tousled the long dark brown hair of a young woman no more than eighteen as she sat up in one of the branches watching the Tauros. Her almond-shaped emerald green eyes drank in the scenery, never missing many details.
She had a fair complexion, maybe slightly tanned in spots, and an average figure. She wasn't chubby by any means, but had curves in all the right places. Though she was a little on the petite side, no taller than perhaps five foot five.
She tugged down her lavender t-shirt over jean pants and gripped her white sneakers tighter against the bark. She lifted her face towards the sun and closed her eyes. A smile danced over her lips.
I like this. I love being near the Pokémon. I've always felt like they were part of me. Every since I was a little girl, I've felt different somehow. I have a power to do things no other person could do. I only wish I could harness it...
There were misfires, accidents, and blunders that caused terrible damage and pain.
Freak. Weirdo.
The cruel whispers swirled in her memory like angry Beedrills. She never had made any friends. Only the Pokémon accepted her and one other human like her.
Sabrina was leader of the Saffron City Gym and the only family she had ever known. She'd been abandoned there when she was barely two. She had no other memories of her life before that. Sabrina was a Psychic and all of her Pokémon were Psychic as well. When it was discovered she was Psychic too, Sabrina had tried her best to train the young woman and harness her abilities, but as she grew older, Sabrina's capabilites became limited.
It was becoming harder and harder to control.
Despite her troubles, she managed to keep a positive outlook on her life. Most observed her as a quiet and slightly standoffish young lady, but around Pokémon she was anything but. She understood on them on a level where it had inspired her to become a trainer. She didn't keep Pokémon of her own, but rather she would train the Pokémon other trainers brought to her in overcoming their difficulties with each other.
A Pokémon Whisperer they referred to her as.
Ki? There you are, a feminine voice urgently resounded in her head, What are doing way out here? I was worried sick.
Ki slowly opened her eyes and met the light violet gaze of a tall, slender woman in her late 30s. Long dark black hair hung straight down her back nearly touching her buttocks. She wore a dark red jacket with black wristcuffs and two sets of gold colored brass buttons running parallel to each other on the breast front. Underneath was a pair of tight bright white pants that were nearly invisible with the jacket over them. A pair of thigh-high black leather boots completed the outfit.
I needed to clear my head, came Ki's quiet reply, I am sorry.
Nevermind, Sabrina dismissed, Could you come down now, please? I need to talk to you.
Ki sighed. Sabrina meant well, but sometimes she snuck off just so she could be alone. She let her frustation build too much in her inadequacy of her powers. Her anger would get the best of her. Sometimes she would hide and release would come in form of a wave of tears. She knew she had to learn to control her temper too or it would become a great liability.
She untangled herself from the tree and hopped down to the ground from her perch. She could have, of course, used telekinesis to lower herself, but she didn't believe in using her powers for simple things as climbing down from a tree. She stood facing Sabrina, tilting her head up slightly to meet her eyes. The Psychic gym leader was a few good inches taller than her.
What did you wish to speak with me about? Ki inquired.
She was more than a little curious. Sabrina's demeanor seemed like she was almost excited about something, happy even, which was a rariety. Then there it was.
It appeared out of thin air next to Ki's head like a mirage. The young woman nearly fell over backwards in shock and she took two steps back in disbelief.
She found herself nearly nose to nose with a floating small pink cat-like Pokémon with wide blue eyes and a long thin tail. Its expression registered amusement at her reaction.
Ki, meet Mew, Sabrina introduced, She's come to help us.
Ki was sure she was dreaming. This couldn't be real. There were legends, but there was no documentation a human being had actually seen one of the rarest Pokémon in the world.
They were so incredibly lucky.
H-hi, she finally choked out, H-how... I mean, where did Sabrina find you? Are you her Pokémon now?
Mew reached out her tiny paw and smacked it on top of her head. Ki gasped more in surprise than in pain.
You're funny, Mew chortled, I belong to no one. I came to Sabrina of my own free will because I sensed a great need. She told me of you and I want to offer my help to train you where she cannot.
Ki first stared at Mew and then turned to stare at Sabrina. She looked between the two a couple of times, her head spinning. This could not be happening. She was sure at any moment she would wake up and find it was all a dream, that she merely fell asleep in the tree.
The most powerful Psychic Pokémon in the world was offering to train her?
Let me get this straight, she started, You came all the way here just to train me? But, why me? Why am I special?
Her eyes unexplicably began pooling with tears. The Pokémon approached her and placed a tiny paw on her chest at her heart. Mew's blue eyes searched hers soulfully.
Ki, you are special, she assured her, I sense it here, in your heart. You are no ordinary human being. You will have a very important role to fill some day and you need to be at your best, your peak even. You have a unique strength. It speaks volumes with your bonds to Pokémon.
Thank you, Ki whispered, sniffling.
Mew smiled and gently bumped her head under her chin.
Come now, no more crying, she urged, We have a lot of work to do. We need to get started right away.
Ki nodded and a genuine smile crossed her lips. It was the first time in her life that she felt important and it was a good feeling. She said goodbye to Sabrina and Mew teleported she and herself back to the Saffron City Gym in a small room far from prying eyes or disturbances.
She would train and generally live with Mew here for the foreseeable future. She would gain knowledge and control far beyond her wildest dreams.
Unbeknownst to Ki or even Mew, her role to play would come far sooner than expected and she would have to fulfill her destiny. As one fateful day would change lives and the course of history forever.
