If I owned Pokémon . . . it'd probably go bankrupt cause I don't think I was born yet when it came out!

OKAY, so I was inspired by CherriEclipse's fic, Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia, to do Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs! . . . it sucks that I published it NOW because of school . . . but I'm glad it's published in the first place! . . . ON WITH THE STORY!

Oblivia region, high in the sky

"Pidgeoooo!"

Three Pidgey were flying peacefully, until suddenly . . .

"Lati!"

A red pokémon flew by, being shot by green . . . things. Two people on scooter looking objects were chasing after the pokémon.

"Whee ha!" the man on the left said.

"Just give it up already!" the woman next to him yelled. "Do you really think you can get away?"

"You just don't know when to give up!"

The two people gained on it, when suddenly, they heard a pokémon cry behind them. They turned around to see a girl flying on a Staraptor.

"Red goggles, a yellow scarf . . . " the man trailed off.

"And a Capture Styler!"

"You're a . . . Pokémon Ranger!"

"That's right!" she replied. "I'm Pokémon Ranger Summer! And I'm here to stop you two from harming that pokémon!"

Suddenly, the capture styler's Voice Nav. warned, "Your adversaries are using Pokémon to attack. Please capture the Pokémon in order to calm it down."

Then as soon as it spoke, a Pidgey flew by.

The controlled Pidgey attacked!

"CAPTURE ON!" Summer said, putting her fist in front of her.

She pressed the button on the Capture Styler on her wrist. She took aim, and fired a thing that looked like a top. The capture disk. It had a blue-ish line trailing it, and when she fired it, a sort of glowing shard thing appeared from the Capture Styler, allowing her to control the disk. It circled and circled until finally, "Capture complete!" The disk went back in.

"Feh! Not only was our Pidgey captured, our target got away!" the man said, looking at the red pokémon go. He turned back to face Summer. "It's hard to believe someone could pull off a midair capture like that. You're something else!"

"Oblivia's very peaceful. We don't need someone like you."

"Here's how we get rid of unnecessary trash. With a plasma cannon!"

Summer started, but quickly understood what was happening, and then the man shot out the same green things they shot at their "target". She dodged both of them, quickly maneuvering her Staraptor.

"Hey, that was a dirty move!" she glared.

"How did that Ranger manage to dodge my attacks . . . ?" the man said, ignoring her.

"You are good . . . but let's see if you can handle our double-team attack!"

Then the two people kept shooting green plasma balls in all different places, along with pink ones. Summer carefully dodged them all, quickly, and without a single hit.

"Oh no!" the man said, sweatdropping. "My plasma cannon's out of battery!"

"Mine too! Scaring our target with wild firing might not have been the best idea. . . . " the woman said. "I guess we'll just have to ram 'em!"

The two people were about to do just that, until they heard a voice behind Summer.

"Are you sure you want to do that? Now you have to deal with two Rangers!" another ranger, this time a boy, said flying next to her.

"Hey there, partner."

She faced him and said, "Good timing, Ben." She turned back to the adults. "You were saying?"

"Oh no! There was more than one of them!"

"The plasma cannons aren't working! Rangers keep popping up! I hate to say it, but I guess we'll have to retreat!"

Then, again, they all heard another voice speak.

"Wait! There is one more on our side now, too!"

The rangers were surprised, but parted to see a blonde haired man pop up, on a red scooter thing.

"Our leader! They're Pokémon Rangers!" the man said.

"I can see that." the 'leader' said coolly. "This is the first time I've seen flying Rangers, though. Two aerial Ranger brats putting on airs with their bright red goggles and yellow scarves. What a joke!"

Then Ben started fuming, and retorted, "Who's the joke? You're the leader of a team that can't even handle a couple of 'brats'!"

"You're kind of pushing it . . ." Summer muttered beside him.

The leader was shocked, but then regained his composure.

"You there . . . " he said, narrowing his eyes. "Do you know the consequences for mouthing off like that? I have just the sport for a tough-talking brat like you. Sky-diving . . . with no parachute! Take that!"

Ben didn't see what was going to happen, but Summer did. Immediately, she flew her Staraptor over in front of Ben.

"Ben!"

"AHHHHH!" he yelled. There was a bright flash of light, and nothing could be seen until a few seconds later. The scene refocused and it was the exact same, except that Summer was no where to be seen.

"Huh?" Ben said with a confused expression. "What happened?"

"Sacrificing themselves to save another. How bold." the blonde haired man said. "You should at least thank your partner for saving you. 'Cause now they're hurtling headfirst into the ocean."

Ben started sweatdropping, and yelled in shock, "What did you say? She saved me, and now she's falling into the ocean!"

The man looked like he was contemplating something, then said, "Well now . . . you seem lucky. Maybe we should make you into our lucky charm."

Meanwhile, Summer was hurtling through the clouds, and into the ocean. She braced herself for impact, but before getting in, remembered to put on her goggles and Aqua Lungs. She landed (rather painfully, at that), and checked to make sure that nothing was broken or anything.

"The Capture Styler has come off!" she heard Voice Nav. say suddenly. "Urgent! Reattach the Capture Styler! The Capture Styler has come off! Urgent! Reattach the Capture Sty . . . ler . . . "

The girl was surprised, and saw her Capture Styler float down, just to be taken by a Mantyke. She immediately followed it, dodging it's bubble attack. She caught up to it, and the Mantyke swam away, dropping her Styler onto some piece of concrete that was there. She swam down and reattached her Capture Styler.

"Danger! Danger!" Voice Nav. said. "Massive object approaching!" She looked confused, and looked around. "Danger! Danger! Extremely strong current! The current i . . s . . zzz zzz zzz . . . "

The Voice Nav. broke down. She then saw the ship and sweatdropped and tried to swim away, but was too slow, and got caught. She fell back.

Obove land, on the top of the ship

"Attention Z.Z. Flyer Squad! Our target is Dolce Island! Commence attack now!" A bunch of men and women riding more scooter things came out, and the one in front, presumably the one in charge, started talking.

"Alright Pinchers, let's go! Dolce Island is uninhabited. We can do whatever we want, and no one's here to see!" He then flew off, his team following behind him.

Dolce Island

A bunch of pokémon, Pichu, Bulbasour, Sunkern, and Marill were happily listening to one particular Pichu in the middle, playing the ukulele. It was nice and peaceful, until the Pichu saw something . . . the pinchers, as the leader called them. He warned the other pokémon, and they all went into hiding.

Three pinchers showed up in that same spot. One said, "You two, split up! Capture them!"

"Roger!"

Then immediately, all the pinchers used some sort of controller in their gloves. They gave off a purplish circle thing. One pincher (possibly the leader again) was saying, "Still, it's amazing that in such a short time, we were able to pinch this many pokémon. It's all thanks to these new Control gauntlets they gave us. We couldn't find the Pokémon we were looking for. But that also means that Pokémon isn't here, which is valuable information, too. Let's return to base and have our leader tell us what a good job we've done! Z.Z. Flyer Squad, retreat!"

Then they all flew off with all the pokémon, except for the one Pichu with the ukulele, who was staring at those people flying off with it's friends.

So yeah, I would love to have some feedback saying if I suck or not. This is the first time I'm trying something like this. R&R PLEASE!
