Truth
"This feared Pokémon is said to travel to worlds unknown. Some even believe that it takes lost spirits along with it." Dusknoir pokedex entry.
The door to my house opened with a loud creak, and the floor was wet with all the burst plumbing pipes. I switched my flashlight on and the beam reflected off the dust in the air. I took a deep breath and stepped forward, but a wave of panic enveloped me. I didn't want to see my mom like this again, but I had to find the truth. So I stepped into the room where she had died and shined the flashlight around, but the body was gone. I saw the trail of blood from where it had been dragged, and felt sick. I heard lumbering footsteps, and looked behind me. It was a ghostly figure. I remember it from the stories I heard as a kid as a dusknoir, it was the Pokémon that would take away the spirits of the dead. Had it come to take away my mom? The Pokémon stepped very close. "Did you take my mom?" I asked. It stared in silence, and grabbed my hands. It pulled and I once again felt the vertigo of being out of my own body. All of a sudden my surroundings shifted in mind-bending ways, I could make out fuzzy outlines of ethereal places, and beings, and then all I saw was white. My mom ran out of the mist, and I ran to her. We met in a hug. I got the realization somehow, that it wasn't Bobby who killed my mom, it was the banettes who had played a trick on me. We talked and said our goodbyes, until dusknoir gave me a tap on my shoulder. And everything disappeared. I woke up in my own body, and the thought that my mom was still out there gave me strength.
