Chapter 2

Ohmygod I'm so sorry! I tried writing this chapter but it came out kinda cruddy...

Anyway! Here's hoping that second time's the charm!

I do not own PMD.

"Tell me again the list of possible reasons for Chatot to make us send this letter when he apparantly had an important announcement?" Sally sighed as she and Squirtle approached the only town they knew of with a post office.

"Well, the announcement could have been about us... That's all" Squirtle said.

"And it would have to be pretty bad if he started threatening us with Peck" Sally added.

"Is he thinking about replacing us?" Squirtle asked worriedly. Sally shook her head.

"No way. We saved the world, so I think that's reason enough for tenure"

Squirtle looked at her in confusion, and Sally sighed as she explained,

"Tenure is a human term. It means a lifelong job. No matter how awful you are at your job, as long as you have tenure you can't get fired"

"Oh... In that case I guess you're right"

By now they were approaching the post office, finally. When they went inside, Sally went to the Pelipper at the desk.

"I need to send this letter out" she said, handing over the letter Chatot had given them. The Pelipper nodded and went off to give it to another Pelipper to fly it off.

As Sally and Squirtle left, they bumped into a Charmander and a Treecko.

"Oh! Sorry" Treecko and Squirtle apologized at the same time. Sally giggled, as did Charmander.

"I've never seen you two around here before" Charmander said. Sally smiled.

"Oh, we were just here to drop off a letter for our guild's Head of Intelligence" she explained. Treecko was impressed.

"So you're a member of an Exploration Guild?" he asked to clarify. Squirtle and Sally nodded.

"What's that?" Charmander asked Treecko. Squirtle and Sally couldn't help but think,

Wait, you don't know?

"It's sort of like a bunch of rescue teams together, but they're kinda upgraded so they're really a bunch of exploration teams" Treecko explained. He smiled nervously at Sally and Squirtle.

"Amanda's still not totally used to Pokemon world terminology" he explained. Sally stared at Amanda in shock.

"You're human?!"

"Yeah" Amanda replied sheepishly.

"So am I!" she said with a smile. Amanda and Treecko's eyes went wide.

"She's from a frozen future that doesn't exist anymore" Squirtle added. Amanda stared at them in shock, and Treecko just fainted.

"I'm dreaming right? I bet any moment now Gengar is gonna come and tell me he's mated to Ekans" Amanda babbled.

"Uh... I don't know what you just said, but this isn't a dream" Sally said.

And just like that, Amanda fainted as well.

Pfft. Okay that may have sucked but I'm gonna keep it just for a cheap laugh. I promise I'll try to make more sense next chapter.
