In a small house somewhere in Pokecity at 1 in the morning…
A girl pulled out midnight blue cloak from a hidden compartment in a closet. As she unfolded the cloak, her companion walked into the room, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.
"You are going to do this again aren't you, Absol," she said.
Absol looked into the full-length mirror at herself. In the mirror, it showed a girl with red eyes and had her white hair tied in a side pony. The girl had pale skin and wore a white jacket with navy blue streaks, jeans, fingerless navy blue gloves, and navy blue converses with white wing designs. Absol frowned at her reflection and put on her cloak and pulled the hood over her head, hiding her identity. Then she turned to look at her companion.
"I need to get the other two so we can find out the truth, I know it's against the entire thing but as soon as I finish with them, I'll sneak them back to where they belong, Litten. So don't worry," Absol said.
Absol turned to look at Litten. Litten had chin length black and red streaked hair with bangs, yellow eyes, peach skin, and red tiger like markings on her cheeks. She wore a black shirt, a black mini skirt with red markings, black leggings, and black boots. Absol sighed when Litten continue to glare at her.
"What?" Absol asked.
"Do me a favor and try not to knock those guards out," Litten said.
"Will do," Absol replied.
Then Absol nodded and climbed out of the window.
"There's a thing called a front door you know!" Litten called out after her friend.
Absol rolled her eyes and disappeared into the dark city streets. Leaving Litten looking out the window after her…
At the Museum of History…
"It's all locked up, there's no way a thief can get in now," said a confidant security guard.
"Stop boasting Pyroar, and let's get this shift over with," the other guard snapped.
"Fine, Zangoose," Pyroar replied.
As the duo left the room in darkness, a cloaked figure snuck out from behind them. The figure kept her distance from the twin beams of light the guards cast with their flashlights. Suddenly one of the guards stopped and shone his flashlight back the way they came from. The figure nimbly darted behind a nearby display case.
"What is it, Pyroar? Not feeling so confident now?" Zangoose teased.
"Oh, shut up Zangoose! Didn't you hear anything?" Pyroar retorted.
"You're probably just imagining things now," Zangoose replied.
"Urgh. I don't know about you but, I swear I heard something. Whatever, I need to go use the washroom. Be right back," Pyroar said.
The figure peeked around the side of the display case only to see one beam of light instead of two. She sneaked up behind Zangoose and knocked him out cold with a punch. Then she froze when a beam of light fell onto her.
"What the…" Pyroar trailed off.
His eyes went to his partner, who was knocked out. When he looked back at where the cloaked figure was, there was only empty space. Before he could look around for the intruder, pain exploded on the back of his head. Then everything went black…
In the morning in the house of the police detective…
"Not again!" a yellow haired guy yelled.
He slammed the newspaper he was reading onto the table. Then he ran a hand through his yellow spiky hair.
"Chill Jolteon," a black haired guy said.
Jolteon looked up at his younger brother. His brother wore a black t-shirt, with a yellow ring in the middle, black pants with yellow markings, a belt that has a bunch of small leather pouches, and black converses. Jolteon glared at his brother as he tried to keep his mopey black hair out of his amber eyes.
"Umbreon, how can I be chill if Shuppet struck again and we failed to get him?" Jolteon asked.
Umbreon stared at Jolteon in shock.
Jolteon wore a yellow trench coat with white lightning shaped markings over a white shirt, brown cargo pants, and brown boots. His right eye was a piercing purple while his left eye is a milky white with a scar that runs diagonally right to left over it.
"No way, again?!" Umbreon exclaimed.
Jolteon calmly slid the newspaper over to Umbreon across the table.
"Shuppet has struck again. Flaming Ruby has been stolen," Umbreon read.
"So the Shuppet has done it again," a voice stated.
The boys looked at the stair way to see their younger sister, Vaporeon. She wore a blue v-neck shirt with a purple heart in the middle, light blue leggings with a design of thin, pale yellow lines that form skeletal outlines of fines, and purple boots. Vaporeaon has tied her light blue and dark blue ombre hair into a high ponytail. She has purple eyes like Jolteon but they had a playful shine to them like Umbreon's amber eyes.
"Yeah, it sucks that Jolteon still hasn't figured out who the Shuppet really is, Maybe he could find a different job," Umbreon teased.
"Shut up," Jolteon snapped.
Umbreon frowned.
"You're no fun," Umbreon pouted.
"So what? It doesn't matter," Jolteon replied.
"What!? It doesn't matter?!" Umbreon feigned surprise, "No wonder you don't have a girlfriend yet!"
"Well I don't see you go around hand in hand with a girl! So what gives you the privilege to say that to me?!" Jolteon retorted.
"Oh well… at least I tried to get a girlfriend, unlike you," Umbreon replied.
Jolteon stood up and glared at Umbreon. Vaporeon sighed and went between her two older brothers.
"You two should stop. Umbreon, stop teasing Jolteon. Jolteon, ignore Umbreon, you know how he is," Vaporeon scolded.
"Aww, c'mon. I just got scolded by my lil' sis," Umbreon teased.
Vaporeon glared at him. Sensing that he should leave, Umbreon took the cue and walked out the front door. Leaving Jolteon and Vaporeon alone in the house.
"I'm gonna make breakfast," Vaporeon said.
Jolteon just shrugged and sat down. Then he picked up the newspaper and started to flip through it. Vaporeon sighed and went into the kitchen.
A moment later…
Vaporeon came into the living room with a plate. She set the scrambled eggs down onto the table and sat down next to Jolteon. She peered over Jolteon's shoulder.
"Whatcha reading?" Vaporeon asked.
Jolteon sighed. Vaporeon studied her eldest brother. She then reacked out a hand and touched the scar on his face. Jolteon batted her hand away.
"Hey Jolteon, I was just thinking about what Umbreon said earlier," Vaporeon said.
"And what about it?" Jolteon asked.
Jolteon took a gulp from his glass of water.
"I agree with Umbreon that you should get a girlfriend," Vaporeon replied.
Jolteon's eyes widened and he spat out the water.
"What! Not you too!" Jolteon groaned.
"You may not want to, but you I think you should. You're so serious all the time, and you barely smile," Vaporeon stated.
Jolteon stretched his mouth into a smile and looked at Vaporeon. She burst out laughing and ruffled his hair.
"You look like a psychopath when you do that!" Vaporeon exclaimed.
"So what? You said that I barely smile, so, I just proved you wrong," Jolteon replied.
Vaporeon giggled but then she turned serious.
"I really mean it, you really should get a girlfriend," Vaporeon said.
Jolteon frowned. Then ignored his sister and ate some scrambled egg. Then he stood up to leave. He was about to go out the front door when Vaporeon grabbed his arm.
"Where do you think you are going?" Vaporeon demanded.
"I'm going to work," Jolteon replied.
Vaporeon didn't let go. Jolteon sighed in annoyance.
"Look sis, I don't need a girlfriend," Jolteon stated. Then he pulled his arm out of Vaporeon's grasp and left the house…
