“Yeah, he did. He was one of the head scientists after your father. Helped research Pokémon and all.” Noah shrugged, and then winced as if the movement had been painful.

"Oh, you would think I remember this..why can't I?"she sighed softly, frustration dripping from her words. She then saw his pain and she knew he was keeping some of his pain from him.
"I don't do this without permission..so..may I look into your mind and see how I can ease it more?"she asked.

She wanted to look into his mind? Noah hesitated. He didn’t want to upset her and seeing the things in his mind undoubtedly would. “It won’t be pleasant,” he warned her, dropping the cheerful tone. “Go ahead.”

Dea waited patiently, to see if he was going to allow her to enter his mind. She didn't know if he would, maybe he felt she wouldn't be able to handle it. When he finally spoke, she nodded her head, she hadn't expected it to be. However, it seemed he would let her, so she had her mind reach out to his. Then she began to dive into his mind.

Dea didn't see anything pleasant. There was a dark room, where the man was chained and starved. Rocket grunts were there, poking and prodding him with metal sticks--where they red with heat, or was that the poor lighting? They seemed to be demanding information on his wife. They said she had abilities to communicate with pokemon.
Another scene had the man obviously burnt and injured. He was breathing heavily, but his mouth was set in a firm line, even as they made their demands.
Then, there were happier times. Dea herself was in them. Him proposing to her under a willow tree that hung over a sparkling lake. Him playing with their pokemon, making her laugh...

Dea gasped in horror as she watched him being hurt with branding iron like bars, chained in place. It was obvious he had not been fed well and they were asking him questions about his wife, whoever that was. They spoke about her having abilities to communicate like she could, though the man was not giving an inch. Then she saw happy thoughts involving..her! She watched as he proposed to her and she cried out in pain as her brain hurt.

Noah pulled away from Dea gently when she cried out. "I'm sorry," he said, "I didn't want to hurt you like that." He looked away from her. "Kidd convinced me to erase your memory for the week I was to be spying on key players in the Rocket circle. I tried my best to be discreet, but they found out. They realized I was married to you, and they tried to use me to get to you. I couldn't let that happen. It was better you were happy and safe, and I knew he'd take care of you."
It was clear, Noah had expected to die to protect Dea's safety.

"It isn't..that..something..feels like it wants to burst. And I remember...Eilam holding my hand..when we used something. Experimental, you..weren't sure what would happen,"she whispered. She had to lean against the wall, to keep from falling over.

"I didn't want to do it," Noah admitted. "Kidd said it would keep you safer. It was supposed to be a week. Only a week..." He swallowed, painfully. "I'm so sorry," he said. It'd been so much longer than a week. He'd been apart from her for so long...
"Can you do that calming thing again?"

"I know, was discussed..you guys decided it was best. You were scared..said it may get you killed. And calming thing...need..Eli or..Lucy,"she explained quietly. She couldn't calm him when her head was a haze itself with all these memories.

Noah nodded. He had been afraid, and in hindsight he’d been right to be. The grunts were often stupid, usually teenagers who didn’t know what they were getting into. The key figures weren’t so much. They knew exactly what they were doing. That made them dangerous.
Timmy hadn’t found Paian, but he’d run into Eilam on the way.there. “Noah’s awake!” He breathed, frantically.

"Wait, Noah is here? Since when..why didn't anyone come tell me this?"Eilam spoke. He should have known to check in with everyone, make sure nothing was out of the ordinary. Something had seemed to be in the air, but he figured it was just the twins being restless.

“Noah’s awake and Dea was with him!” Timmy clarified, when Eilam didn’t seem to understand. “Come help. I heard her cry out. He might’ve hurt her or something! He’s insane!”

"Oh no, that can't be good at all, if she is with him. Alright, lead me to the room he was put into. She doesn't remember who he is, this could be bad for both of them,"he spoke urgently. He motioned for Timmy to lead the way, knowing Noah would never hurt Dea. However, that didn't mean something might not have happened.

Timmy led the way to the room Noah was in. He hesitated before walking in. “I couldn’t find Paian, but I found Eilam...” he began, looking uncomfortable. He looked between Noah and Dea.
“Did he hurt you, Momma?” He set his eyes on Noah, expression darkening.
