Chapter 1 – A New Beginning

"Pearl, watch out!"

Guns were being fired everywhere in the abandoned warehouse. Everything was dark.

A girl with dark green hair forward-somersaulted out of the way of a gunshot. She screamed. And soon, all the echo's that pounded her eardrums stopped. But she heard a scream before she blacked out completely.

"Suzy!"

As the dark-green haired girl opened her eyes, everything was blurred. She heard excited squeals and whispers.

"Suzy! Oh, finally you're awake." said a chestnut brown haired girl.

"May? What happened?" asked Suzy as she pushed herself up. She realized she was in the first-aid clinic at the mansion because she was wearing her plaid pyjama bottoms and a white t-shirt.

May shrugged but her sapphire blue eyes were filled with slight fear. "You were shot in your leg, and somehow, the bullet stopped the blood flow from circulating properly and you've been unconscious for a few hours." she explained.

Suzy groaned at her younger sister and let her head fall back onto the soft pillow. "But you and the others are okay, right? No one else was hurt?" she asked.

May just rolled her eyes. "Yes, we're fine. Typical Suzy; being the older sister, you're always looking out for us triplets and Dawn."

The green haired girl glared at May who just backed away slightly. "Sorry, was only teasing."

Suzy raised her eyebrows. "Uhuh. Could you get Misty in here? She's more responsible than you lot." May poked her tongue out at her then went out of the room to find her fellow triplet.

Speaking of Misty, the copper-haired girl was in the main battle stadium training one of her water Pokémon; Azurill.

"Alright, that's it Azurill, now Water Gun!" she exclaimed, pointing at the wooden dummy in the middle of the battlefield.

"Misty!"

"Huh?"

Misty whirled around only to face her fellow triplet running into the stadium. "Misty, Suzy wants to talk to you." she panted. "Any why does this house have to be so big?"

The redhead giggled softly and then her eyes widened slightly in sudden realization. "Wait, she's awake?" she asked.

May nodded and gestured towards the door as she continued to catch her breath. "H… hospital r-room…"

"Azurill, return!" she said as she held out Azurill's Pokéball, and then bolted out of the room towards the hospital wing; leaving May on her hands and knees – gasping for air.

Misty continued to run as the Main Stadium was a pretty long walk towards the Hospital Wing.

When she finally got there, Suzy was sitting up in the bed, reading a magazine – pretty much scanning through the pages, though. She glanced up when she caught sight of her younger sister. "Misty!"

"Suzy, it's so good to hear you're awake. And May told me that you wanted to see me. What's up?" the younger girl asked.

Suzy nodded and then handed her an envelope addressed to the 5 of them; Suzy, Misty, May and their other 2 sisters – Leaf and Dawn. "It's from Dad." Suzy explained. "But I can't exactly open it – Water's your specialty, is it not?"

Misty flashed her older sister a grin and ripped it open, causing Suzy to raise her eyebrows then droop into a pout. "There was a not on top that said it was secured by some sort of water." she whined.

Misty laughed and continued to open the letter and scanned it over. She herself raised her eyebrows and then frowned as her eyes moved about the page. "That's definitely an odd request…"

"What's odd?"

Misty handed the letter to Suzy who read it over as well.

Dear Suzanne, Mistiria, Maybelle, Leafaza & Dawnella,

Hello girls, I know you've been waiting a while to hear from me but I've been busy here at the main office. Please go meet our main butler; Thomson, and he shall lead you towards the communication and screening room. This will be at 4.00pm, please don't be late.

I'll explain more myself when we talk in person over the screen later. It's about the next mission which you 5 have been anxious in waiting about.

Love,

Father.

Suzy also raised her eyebrows. "Well, what's the time now?" she asked. Misty pulled up her blue jacket sleeve and glanced down at her Pokétch.

"3.54." she answered and then looked up. "I'll get the others – you just get Martha help you out of bed and to get changed. Martha!" she exclaimed before bolting out of the room.

Misty ran up the few flights of stairs and up to the bedroom floor which she shared with her five sisters, and ran towards the end which was her youngest sisters' room.

All the doors were painted white, and the walls a nice faded grey with lacy curtains on the large, arch windows. She reached the last door of the hall and knocked on the large double doors before hearing a muffled 'Come in' and turning the silver handle.

"Hey, Dawn." Misty greeted as she strolled into Dawn's room.

Dawn's room was quite large – like all of them. Her bed was face towards the right wall with a four poster bed with a light pink think blanket – patterned with black, white, and dark brown circles, fluffy, white pillows with frilly outlines with a darker pink quilt at the bottom and a white comforter. On the white poles, lace was attached so it was hanging down above Dawn's head as she slept and a pink and sparkly dream-catcher hung in the middle. The ground was covered in a soft, salmon coloured carpet and the all the other furnishings were old-fashioned carved; the tall boy and bed-side table complete with little curled legs, and her wallpaper was baby pink and brown and white poke-dots.

Dawn was sitting at her mirror, brushing her midnight blue hair with a hot-pink comb. "Hey, Misty." she replied and flashed her sister a grin. "What's up?"

"New mission." Misty answered simply as she walked closer to her sister. "Meet the rest of us in front of the communication and screening room in 5 minutes, okay? And wait for Thomson. I just need to get Leaf. Where is she anyway?"

Dawn shrugged and then pointed towards another wall which led to her walk-in closet. "She in there?" Misty asked, gesturing towards the wall. Dawn nodded and went back to brushing her hair and Leaf came tumbling out, followed by a few boxes, coat hangers and dresses. "You heard all of that, Leaf?" the redhead asked as she tried to stifle a giggle.

Leaf poked her tongue out at Misty and managed to get up; though clumsily so. Misty grabbed her sisters' hands and basically dragged them downstairs – and completely ignored their protests.

"Misty, we can walk ourselves." Leaf whined but her fellow triplet just rolled her eyes.

"I don't care, dad wants to talk to us." she replied, and Dawn squealed in delight. "We get to talk to dad!" she cried in excitement.

As Dawn continued to babble about how excited she was to talk to their always-busy fire, Leaf and Misty just tagged along behind as their bubbly sister skipped ahead, wanting to get their faster.

Soon, the 3 girls got there while the other two were leaning against the wall. "We have to wait a few minutes while Thomson manages to get a hold of dad." May explained as the tugged on her bandana impatiently.

Soon, the large doors opened to see their old, friendly butler who seemed like a grandfather to them. He smiled warmly to the girls and invited them inside to sit on the long leather couch where there were 5 cups of water awaiting to be drunk and a large screen in front of the oak bookcase.

Suddenly, a small ball of light appeared on the screen and faded out, revealing the outline of their father before descending into the actual colour. "Father!" his 5 daughters exclaimed.

Norman Maple, the girls' father, was currently out of the region and disguising himself as a gym leader in the Hoenn region of Petalburg City.

"Hello girls," he greeted cheerfully, his warm cobalt eyes sparkling warmly. "How are you?"

"We're great thanks, father." Suzy replied as she beamed at her father. May sighed but immediately put on a fake grin when Norman glanced at her.

"Something wrong, May?" he asked. May gulped nervously and then sent Suzy a nervous look who shook her head with widened eyes, indicating that she didn't want their father to know she had been shot only a couple of hours ago.

"Nothing, nothing at all." she replied with a cheerful smile. Norman's eyes narrowed, he knew she was lying, but would let it be for now – they'd discuss it when he got home.

He shrugged it off and then smiled again before clapping his hands together, ready to introduce the girls to their new mission. "Now, I know your all eager to hear what your new mission is, and Thomson, if you will hand out the files."

Their grandfather-like figure nodded. "Yes, sir." He walked towards the coffee table and handed the girls each their own maroon folder with a white, complicated symbol on the front.

Leaf took the folder curiously and opened the file, scanning through the pages. "Wait… school? We already excel in everything."

Norman nodded. "You'll be protecting 5 boys – one sixteen and the others fifteen. You'll be placed in most of their class – except for you Suzy and Dawn. Suzy, you mainly with the sixteen-year old, and Dawn; because you're 14, you'll only be in some of their classes. Some with the triplets."

Dawn scowled at this. She hated being the youngest when it came to stuff like this. Norman's face softened when he saw his youngest daughter pouting. "Oh, come on, Dawnella." He said.

The blunette glared at her father. All 5 of them hated their full names. "It's not that bad, you'll be in some of their classes. And then lunch time. Plus it's a boarding school. And you won't actually be going there for school – just to protect the boys." he explained.

She shifted in her seat. "Why are we going to protect them, anyway?"

"For some reason, another assassin organization is after them, but we haven't found out why. One of our level spies has only found out who their going to attack. We don't the dates either, so you must be prepared."

All 5 girls nodded and said their goodbyes for getting up and towards their rooms to pack.
