15 Years Ago

"Pixie! I did it! I thought of a genius plan to get us on top!" a Lefeon exclaimed, storming into a small room where a beautiful Ninetales stood in front of a desk. The Ninetales tilted her head, confused.

"Colin, we've been over this, we don't need to be rich, we don't need money, our guild will achieve fame on its own." the Ninetales insisted as the Lefeon shook his head, giving her a look of exasperation.

"Think about it Pixie! No one wants to be part of the guilds anymore! We need to create something that will motivate others to join, to gain the passion!" Colin exclaimed, grinning brightly as Pixie sighed, giving him a look.

"Let me hear it then Colin, what are your big plans to make guilds great again?" Pixie questioned as Colin blinked and smiled, moving an arm around her while gesturing towards the wall.

"First we must get to the kids! We make schools from middle to high school have a special program, where anyone with the thrill can join a single member from a guild and go on missions, of course that aren't too dangerous, but just to show them how fun and exciting it can be." Colin explained, smiling as Pixie frowned, looking down softly.

"I don't know...", she whispered as Colin grinned.

"Trust me Pixie, it will be revolutionary! And other then that we can televise some missions, even do a reality show or something!" Colin added as Pixie leaned back, shaking her head at the proposition.

"Colin, no! This isn't something that should be turned to movies and whatnot, this is a real civil career!" Pixie argued as Colin shrugged, grinning slightly.

"Just give it some thought...alright?" he asked as Pixie glowered down, Colin saw this and shook his head, frowning softly. "Pixie, it has been 200 years since that massacre on the humans happened and with all the technology left behind in our wake, Pokemon don't want to pursue exploring anymore, it's all about business or medical now." he added as Ninetales frowned more. He was right.

"I know." was all she said, looking away. She knew that they needed explorers for a more sole reason than simple treasure hunting, but it was a dark reason that could very well end their lives as well.

Present Time

"This is Jack Elway saying welcome to the Mystery Dungeon Games!" a loud talkative mouth exclaimed from his seat with a picture of two Lycanroc's, Midday and Midnight forms were on the screen. "The two finalists teams will have the freshly new prodigies out of high school, both brothers, battling it out against each other to represent their guilds." he added as a picture of the midday form.

"Luka from the Ninetales Guild will be one to watch with his dangerous speed and Accelerock, along with his good defensive capabilities will be hard to take him out from getting his job done." Jack started before the picture changed to the bored looking midnight form of a Lycanroc. "His younger brother, Hunter from Garchomps Guild, on the other hand focuses on power and brute strength with his capable hunting abilities by having all his senses heightened, hearing, smell, eyesight, name it, he has something he's looking for he's most likely to find it first due to his keen hunting instinct. Lets see who will win the match up between the power or the defense?" he questioned.

A young fourteen year old Zangoose was watching the television show in complete interest before flinching at a loud thumping noise coming from the other side of the small hut she called home. The home itself wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that good either, only being a two bedroom with one bathroom and kitchen with a tiny area they called the family room. The Zangoose had self-proclaimed the family area has her room as she sleeps there, giving up the spare bedroom for her elderly grandmother out of sheer compassion and she didn't want to share a room with her mother who had offered. She likes her space, of course.

"Tsukino! Sweetie, your going to be late for your first day of middle school!" a sweet yet demanding voice exclaimed as the Zangoose scrambled up quickly, turning the small television off before speed walking over to the small kitchen that merely held a stove, three cabinents and a small counter where a Flareon stood in front of with a small paper bag. "I made your favorite." she added as the Zangoose opened the bag and smiled softly.

"Thanks mom, i'll be heading out now." she said, quickly before rushing out of the house, stopping in front of an elderly Persian. "Bye grandma! I'm heading out to school!" she said, waving softly while walking away. The Persian smiled and waved back.

"Be good." was all she said before laying back down on the blanket she had set outside. Tsukino smiled and rushed towards her destination with a small smile. She was going to start junior high at Galeford Middle School, an old run-down school that the poorer population of the region of Kylos go to. Tsukino didn't mind one bit as she wasn't all that interested in school itself, but she knew she had to do the work to get a good education and hopefully a good enough job to support her family. They weren't dirt poor, but they weren't frivolously rich either, so her mother had gotten the small but decent hut for the two of them, plus her grandmother.

"I wonder if there would be a club for the mystery dungeon games." Tsukino pondered to herself while walking, looking around the area and noticed a small dirtied Elekid being held by an equally dirty and skinny looking Electivire, probably homeless. She turned to see a young Machop and Teddiursa playing with a few branches of sticks and a few pebbles, steering clear from a Mr. Mime who looked sick as he or she was having a coughing fit, covering itself with a ragged blanket. It was times like this where Tsukino had felt grateful for her nagging mother, keeping a roof over their heads, food on the table and even a little entertainment with a tiny black and white television as she can clearly see that some Pokemon don't have any of those. She was interested in making a difference in the world, to prevent things like this, one day.

"Move you idiot!" a voice suddenly growled as Tsukino snapped out of her thoughts and looked up only to be tackled to the ground, rolling down a small hill, landing on her back on a grassy patch. She blinked, looking to the side to see a group of Tauros stampeding away before looking up to see a deep red and white werewolf like Pokemon with sharp black claws, white spiky fur rising up from its back down to it's face with the tips being a black color, barely covering it's deep red eyes.

"You-you saved me?" she stuttered slightly, looking up at the being. It looked like the same Lycanroc she saw on television, the midnight form of course. The Lycanroc looked down at her before scoffing, moving off of her, dusting himself off with a frown.

"Tch, didn't your fucking parents teach you how to fucking walk? Look both ways next time, idiot." the Lycanroc stated, fixing his 'hair' before looking down at her, tilting his head slightly. "Well? Are you going to sit there all day or you going to get the hell up?" he asked as Tsukino frowned and puffed her cheeks slightly, sitting up before standing, shaking the grass from her fur.

"Well your rude, did you kiss your mother with that mouth of yours?" she shot back as the Lycanroc rose a brow of interest before scoffing, turning to walk away from her while humming.

"Hell fucking no, why the hell would I kiss my own fucking mother?" he questioned, sarcasm dripping from his mouth as Tsukino rolled her eyes, following the Lycanroc because she was going the way he was going and she was curious about one thing.

"Are you Hunter by any chance?" she asked, catching up to the wolf like Pokemon. "I mean, Hunter from Garchomps Guild?" she added as the Lycanroc looked down at her with a bored expression.

"You think that because i'm a fucking Lycanroc that I'm suddenly that famous Lycanroc?" he questioned, grunting as she merely shrugged. He shook his fur while growling lowly, looking up at her, his eyes narrowing in annoyance to find she was taller than him. "Yeah, that's me." he muttered, crossing his arms as Tsukino tilted her head in curiosity.

"I thought you'd be going up against your brother...Luka right now." Tsukino suddenly said as the Lycanroc known as Hunter grunted, walking ahead of her with his eyes closed in thought.

"That was a fucking rerun, idiot." he deadpanned as she rose a brow. Tsukino wasn't one for socializing or talking to anyone for that matter, hell if anyone was to ever ask her if she would see herself talking to a Midnight Lycanroc with a vulgar mouth while walking to school in the future, she would probably say something along the lines of 'stupid', but this Pokemon did save her life (or an injury) and he was somewhat tolerable, along the lines he's a member of a real guild, one she is very interested in, so she decided to ask a mass amount of questions.

"How is it going in dungeons?"

"Lame."

"Is Garchomp's Guild cool?"

"It's not shit."

"Who won the finals?" she suddenly asked as Hunter scoffed, looking away with a groan.

"What the hell is this 20 questions?" he questioned, shaking his head while walking, looking up at her once more. "Your a fucking kid why the hell are you following me, asking me fucking questions, I mean don't you have friends or some shit or do you just want a fucking autograph?" he asked, ignoring her question as she puffed her cheeks slightly before sighing.

"You know...I thought Midnight Lycanroc's were supposed to be all crazy and into killing others." she suddenly said, remembering reading up on different species of Pokemon. Hunter's eyes twitched before sighing.

"Stereotypical asshole." was all he said as she narrowed her eyes with a small 'hmph'.

"You're much smaller up close then you are on t.v." she shot back, walking ahead of the baffled Lycanroc. While walking she heard a deep growl of frustration and smirked in triumph. She soon found herself in front of the school and blinked in shock. The school itself was small and held a blue-gray color that was dull, had cracks along the edges and even had some spray painted words around it that Tsukino couldn't understand. The little amount of grass that was around the school was yellow in color and she noticed that some of the students were extremely skinny or passed out while the other few students were in between, probably just lower-middle class. Tsukino shook her head and entered through the small wooded gate to get her schedule. She was surprised with herself that she was a little early, despite her little detour. After she had read the small piece of paper that was taped to the wall with four teachers and a list of student names, she noticed she had physical education.

Tsukino walked outside to the Courtyard she assumed as it was a basketball court without any basketball hoops as one of them was bent and unusable while the other one simply had no hoop. She looked over at the other students in her class which only had about five other girls and about fourteen guys, not counting the Conkeldurr gym teacher who blew his whistle and noticed that none of them looked wealthy or at least upper-middle class to her, the wealthy lived on the other side of Kylos, going to a great school known as Wellowbrook Academy, not that it mattered to her as she enjoyed a small challenge and she really didn't feel like being near rich bastards. She looked to see the Conkeldurr clear his throat, grabbing the attention of the students.

"Alright children! I am Mr. Goober! Your first period teacher for Physical Education!" The old male exclaimed as some of the kids had to cover their ears from the loud booming, though Tsukino was used to her mother always shouting nonsense, so it was no big deal. "Before we begin our first exercises of the day we have a special guest from Garchomp's Guild." he added as Tsukino rose a brow, ignoring some of the whispering.

"Garchomp's Guild? Hold on...no, it couldn't be." Tsukino thought to herself, blinking when a familiar red and white werewolf like Pokemon walked in, deadpanned expression in all it's glory. Hunter looked over at the students in boredom before resting them on the Zangoose. He scoffed and looked over her once more before walking next to the Conkeldurr, ignoring the stares and whispers.

"He's a Midnight form!"

"Why is a crazy Pokemon here on school grounds?"

"Shhh! If he hears you he might kill you."

Tsukino listened to the whispers and then looked to the Lycanroc who seemed impassive though she could see that he was somewhat annoyed from his claws being clenched in a tight fist. Tsukino looked back at the others and hummed to herself, was this something the grumpy guy had to deal with constantly?

"Hello little shits, my name is Hunter Levine and I am nineteen years old." he introduced as some of the kids and the teacher gaped at his introduction. Tsukino mentally facepalmed, feeling somewhat stupid for almost feeling bad for him. Hunter mentally smirked at their reactions and continued, "I am from Garchomps Guild and even made it to the finals of The Mystery Dungeon Games and because of that i'm forced to be an instructor for a junior dungeon squad at this school, so for anyone interested in becoming an explorer then come after school to the courtyard." he finished, looking as impassive as ever. One student rose a paw up, curiously.

"Wait! Tell us more about being in an exploration team! Like are you rich now?" he asked as Hunter scoffed at the question and rose his head up to glare at the kid.

"Your broke as hell until you find something good." he answered as the young kid blinked and shrank back, shivering from the cold november air or because he was scared senseless of the Lycanroc in front of him. Another student rose their appendage up, looking up innocently at the annoyed male.

"Why did you lose against your brother?" she asked as as Hunter glared at her. Tsukino could only guess that girl hit a sore spot on the Lycanroc's pride.

"Do you know why the fucking sky is blue?" he countered as the girl shook her head as Hunter scoffed, crossing his arms. "There's your fucking answer you little shit, now are there any intelligent questions or can I fucking leave this disgusting ass place?" he asked as no one dared to raise their appendages. The Lycanroc nodded in understanding (or just happy to be rid of the questions) before promptly leaving the room after flipping the class off with a wave of a single finger. Mr. Goober was surprised before he cleared his throat.

"Well then...l-let's get started on some stretches."

P.J.M.D

Hunter sighed, leaning against a lone tree in the courtyard of the school, looking up at the sky with narrowed eyes. The school day has ended and he was forced to teach dumb ass middle school students how to survive in dungeons, something he of all others shouldn't be in charge of as it just brought back too many bad memories, memories that had showed him the reason why he hated explorers, not all of them were bad, no, but the system itself was corrupt and some of the actual decent Pokemon who were explorers were blind to it. This little 'program' the school had was just proof that the system was looking to control children early on to join them and their disgusting ass beliefs and traditions.

"Come on Hunter! Just a little longer!"

He could still hear her voice.

"Hunter this could be a trap."

He should have listened to his voice.

"You brought this on yourselves."

He should have stopped that voice. If only he was stronger, better, smarter, he could have done something about it. Hunter grunted, narrowing his eyes softly while looking over the clouds. He wouldn't be surprised if no one showed up, but then again it would be better for him, better for those kids, those poor, poor innocent, naive little shits known as kids, though he remembers one of them, the female Zangoose who was stupid enough to pay no mind to the herd of Tauros, now despite her being a idiotic brat she was actually less of a shit then he gave the other kids credit for. She seemed smart and would most likely never try to become an explorer.

"Hunter!" a voice called as the Lycanroc looked down to see a familiar looking Zangoose walking towards him, at that moment when they locked eyes, only one word formed in his head...

...Fuck

This is going to be a remake/Prequel to a past story I had made a few months ago and will cover more detail and a better plot then what was used last. I would have a few past oc's for those of you who remember it, but if not then it's not really relevant to this story line.

I am accepting Oc's right now, 4 spots for Hunter's small expedition group of middle school kids and about 8 spots for regular guild members for Garchomp's Guild. You may pm them or leave them in the review.
