Author's Note: Why hello there, it's me… with a fanfic… P Yes, this fanfic will be made for my own personal enjoyment and probably to see if I could get better at writing seeing as I am taking up Bachelor in Journalism. My major is not really my first choice, but seeing the status of our country, it's very hard to find another school or even transfer from the one I am currently taking up. Anyways, back to the fanfic, obviously, it's Pokémon related, but not the Pokémon themselves… ;o It's actually about two characters around the Hoenn season you guys probably haven't even been paying attention to. Plus, my characters from a sprite comic I liked to call "Pokémon Academy: Avegaille's School Sessions".

Anyways, read the fanfic to find out who they are… I apologize for some OOC going on. Flaming has no effect on me and any good comments or criticism would be appreciated. I think this will be only about 5 chapters/parts. I was planning to make it a one-shot fanfic, but I don't think it's possible with all the scenes going on in the story.

Part 1: The Reunion

It has been ten years since Roxanne last met her classmates from when she was studying at the Pokémon Academy in Rustboro City, Hoenn Region. The joys of learning while having fun in school back in the old days... Now, Roxanne is the one bearing all the pain from handling her most delinquent students. Mrs. Amethyst, Roxanne's advisory teacher back in the old days, is planning a school reunion for her class. Mrs. Amethyst made Roxanne in charge of sending out the announcement to her classmates. With the technology today, Roxanne wouldn't take a day to send all those invitations to her classmates. And the best thing is that the event's going to happen right at the Pokémon Academy's gardens.

"Looks like this day is going to be our last day of classes, students!" a strict feminine voice announced to the students sitting on benches in front of her. She smiled. "So let's make this last day the best one, shall we?"

The students nodded and were all determined to make best out of their last day at the Pokémon Battle Judge Training Institute. After this day, they would be going home for summer vacation. Their last lesson would be a 3-on-3 Pokémon battle with no substitutions. Although the professor had some trouble with finding Pokémon Trainers that would volunteer to help her students out, she was lucky enough to have two Trainers stumble by her institute accidentally. The trainers were willing to help out in the institute while they prepared for the Hoenn League. Like Pokémon Trainers who dreamt of being part of the Hoenn League, referees studying in the institute also dreamt to be the one refereeing the battles in the Hoenn League or even outside of Hoenn. The institute is the only place where these aspiring referees can be at their best. And one of the persons in charge of the institute is none other than Professor Sarina.

Preferably, Professor's Sarina's age is estimated around the age of 18. Though she tended to get strict whenever she was serious, her kindness and care for her students always made up for it. She could be easily distinguished by her short slightly dark blue hair, her dark green eyes and could be seen in a maroon coat, a yellow long sleeved shirt inside and a black skirt. She carries with her a whistle which she uses to guide her students whenever she's training them with the flag raising. She has enjoyed refereeing Pokémon Battles ever since she studied at the Pokémon Academy. Now, she shares what she has learned from the Academy with her students.

Sarina had received an invitation about the school reunion happening in Rustboro City's Pokémon Academy from Roxanne, one of her classmates she was somewhat close to. She couldn't wait for the day she would be returning to Rustboro City to meet her classmates, especially a very special classmate of hers. She would have to take a ferry before arriving in the city, which would take days. For now, she had to focus on teaching her students her lesson for the last day of classes.

"Oh Nicole, look at what I've got here!" the voice of a little girl cheerfully exclaimed out as she came running about while waving a sealed envelope in her hand. The little girl had bushy red pigtails and was decked out in a white collared shirt and an orange pleated skirt. She then made a quick turn and ran towards the person who she referred to as Nicole.

"Natalie, you know you're not supposed to run around the house…" Nicole muttered while sighing. Nicole is one of Natalie's older sisters and quite the creative one in the family. She had short dark blue hair, wore a pink turtleneck shirt with a green skirt that almost reached above her ankles and a yellow apron. She quickly grabbed onto the little girl's shoulders to stop her from running any further. "Now where did you get that letter?"

Nicole and Natalie run a flower shop which is located near the south of Rustboro City. Aside from a flower shop, they also grow berries in their garden. They have another sister named Rita. She is usually in charge of fixing everything that is broken in their household. The three of them have been known in Rustboro as The Berry Sisters for their interest in growing berries in their garden and teaching anyone about the wonders of berries.

"Oh, this? I got this when I was checking the front door," Natalie replied as she smiled and handed over the letter. "It's for you, in case you were wondering."

"For me?" Nicole looked rather skeptical as she took the letter and opened one of the sides of the envelope. She took out the piece of paper inside the envelope and read the contents.

"Well, what does it say?" Natalie asked, seemingly excited to know what is the letter about.

"It's an invitation for the upcoming school reunion at the Pokémon Academy in Rustboro City," Nicole replied as she continued to read the letter. "It's been a long time since those days of having fun with all my classmates while learning all sorts of things. Of course, my favorite subject was 'The Wonders of Berries' class. It only lasted for one year though."

"Gee, I wonder what else is interesting in that academy…" Natalie muttered as she looked rather mischievous and folded her arms across her chest.

"Oh yes, I had a classmate there who was rather unique from my other classmates. I'd like to see her again but she's too busy with her job nowadays… But I guess this reunion might be the only chance I have to see her again," Nicole continued as she chuckled. Her green eyes could be seen brimming with determination and excitement. She didn't even notice that Natalie was carefully listening to everything she was saying.

"Oooh, I'm thinking of first crush here!" Natalie exclaimed happily as she giggled and started to blush while holding up her fists to her chin.

"It's not what you think Natalie… the classmate I'm talking about is also a girl, and she almost looks like me," Nicole quickly interrupted as she folded her arms across her chest and pouted while blushing. "I don't get why I would call her unique in terms of looks, but I guess it's because we have different attitudes and we still got along pretty well…"

"Then… why are you blushing?" Natalie teased as she pointed at her sister's face.

"Eh?" Nicole quickly turned away from Natalie as she tried her best to control herself. "It's nothing, really… A-anyway, I have to take care of the shop or otherwise we might be out of business…"

Natalie shrugged as she hummed a tune and then skipped happily out of the shop. Nicole turned around again as Natalie left and kept quiet for a while. She looked around the shop brimming with flowers in pots. She thought of the days she was with that classmate she was referring to.

"I wonder how… Sarina's doing…" Nicole muttered to herself and sighed.

"And this concludes our class for this day!" Sarina announced to everyone as the two trainers called back their Pokémon into their Pokéballs. "We'll be all seeing each other again in September, so enjoy your summer vacation!"

"Yes, Professor Sarina," the students all said in union as they stood up from the benches and walked off to their dorms while talking to each other about their summer vacation plans.

The two trainers also gave their thanks to Sarina and followed the students to get to their guest dorm. Sarina was left behind to see if there was anyone left loitering around the practice stadiums. She sighed with relief knowing that she could finally take a break from all the work she had been through these past months. She still couldn't get the upcoming school reunion off her mind. She knew that she would finally meet her classmate that she had been friends with ever since they started studying in the Academy. Somehow, she was a bit bothered about the strange feeling she had been getting ever since she got the invitation. Though there was part of her that was enjoying how she was feeling. For now, she had to get to her office to manage a few things before she could start her summer vacation.

OMG, it's so short… ;o Well, yes, it was meant to be a one-shot fanfic, but seeing as there are too much scenes involved (in my mind), it's going to be at least 5 parts… I hope. D

Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed this somehow… because as each chapter comes, more things might be revealed… XD Many thanks to my friend Jane for helping me out correct some of my grammar problems… But I believe there might be more…
