So I was playing Pokémon Mystery Dungeon when I had a idea. It gets kinda dark so bear with me.
Waking up in another world is terrifying especially when you can only remember your name.
When you open your eyes you are met with a friendly face, or at least semi trust worthy as the worried look would have you believe they are. You're stunned for a few seconds, unable to make sense of this... This creature that is definitely not human.. The world around you is not your home, it's wrong in a way you can't explain. There is an almost shimmer to the atmosphere around you in a way you can't examine.
You try to explain your situation, what little you can remember of it anyway, only to be met with a laugh and a worried. "Did you hit your head? Earth? Fiction? Do you need to see a doctor L? "
After failing to get your point across, they pat your head ad tell you that you're overwhelmed. "You must be tired after a fall like that."
You try to insist that you're fine, that you don't need rest, but it's all for nothing as they take your hand and lead you away to a small cottage. You are told it is a spare home the town has and, after being given the grand tour, they tell you that you can have the house for free if you start an adventuring party with them, something you later learn no one else wanted to do for some unknown reason.
You agree, because let's be honest here that is probably your best and only way to get information on a way home, and eventually, after some shenanigans and the town turning against you and trying to kill you after finding out you are in fact human. You both become famous for saving their world and for having the strongest adventuring team made up of people deemed unwanted by other parties. A true found family in a fantasy world full of danger.
As with all good things, your time with your new friends and allies comes to an end. A feast is held in your honor, tearful goodbyes are shared.
When you get home? Everything seems normal. You're back to your regular life, be that a nine to five or studying. You start to forget about your adventures, they fade like a dream when you wake up in the morning. Memories you made, the team you built, the partner that stood by you through everything... They all fade with time. Was it all a dream?
..."Did you think we'd forget?"...
..."Why?! Why did you abandon me?!"...
..."You can't leave me alone again!"...
"You're awake! I was so worried..." You wake up back in your base to the same concerned expression you saw when you first arrived to this world.
"Home?" They tilt their head unsure of what you mean. "You must have been dreaming, Silly!" They smile wilder pulling you into a hug. "But don't worry. I did promise to get you home. Now let's get some breakfast! The team has prepared your favorites!"
Suddenly your original way home doesn't work. Nothing else you try ends with failure. Your partner and team is always there to comfort you, to wipe your tears and offer encouragement.
They will all work together to get you home. You just need to realize 'Home' is with them.
... So please don't leave, Okay?
