Edit:Seems that I posted the wrong chapter, sorry guys.

Okay before we start I'd like to thank everyone who sent in OCs, they're all amazing and I can't wait to get them into the story. Sadly they'll have to wait till the next chapter. I'm always going to be accepting so if you got more send them in! I'd also like to explain the guild hierarchy system, as I like to call it, since my version is a little different from the games. The guild isn't run by just one pokemon, instead its run by two to four pokemon from one of the veteran teams. All guild leaders have equal power and no one pokemon can make a decision without consulting his companions. In the case of a tie breaker or a major decision all guild members that wish to may vote to decide. Once the current leaders feel like retiring they appoint a successor team. In the event that all current leaders die and there is no successor the guild votes for the new team. As of now the Hunters have two leaders with another currently being finalized, the Rescuers three , and the Scholars have one finalized leader while I have no clue what I'm gonna do about the others. I really need to get to work on finalizing these bios so you might not see me for a few days. Though maybe you guys can help me, for the Hunter's guild almost everything is done for the third leader I just need to decide whether to make her a Fennekin or a Braxien. She's supposed to be about the age of a teenager since her team is the newest of the leaders and she was raised from an egg by the other two leader. She's also supposed to be very petite, since her birth father was a Delcatty. I'm leaning more toward Fennekin since she's very small and agile, also she'd make an adorable foxy scarf for her Bisharp papa. But at the same time I think making her a Braxien would better fit her age and allow her a more "human" appearance instead of the more pet like one she'd have as a Fennekin. If its any help her moveset is Wish,Psyshock,Hidden Power, Double Team and her nature/characteristic is Modest-Quick to Flee if that's any help. As for the Scholar leader, I've run into the dilemma of loving a character too much I've sorta become obsessed with creating the perfect partners for him, in the process creating some amazing characters that I will be using but none of them seem to click with him and I'm at a loss for character ideas. He's a Gardevoir named Magnus("Great one") and has more pride than the devil himself. He has a Sassy nature with Thoroughly Cunning as is characteristic and his moveset is Attract,Calm Mind,Physic, Thunderbolt. He's supposed to be one of those Cigar smoking, sarcastic, womanizing bastards who nobody gets along with, but under the mountains of uncaring he's got a heart of gold. Or maybe it's just fool's gold. I have one character that might work but she's still very much unfinished. I'm 99% sure her name is going to be Moxie("determination,nerve.") and she'll be Hasty-Likes to Fight. I also reallywant her to know Play Rough, but I'm not really fond of any of the pokemon that can learn it. Also, though she does go well with Magnus, Moxie doesn't really fit well into the Scholar mindset ether and I'm not sure how I can make her fit without changing her character. Oh well I'll mull it over for a bit, she isn't going to show up for a few more chapters. Also I changed Kai's Will-O-Wisp to Toxic scince the move didn't make sense considering Kai's fear of way sorry for rambling, any and all suggestions are appreciated. Now lets get to the story.

"The clouds are quite a beautiful color today, don't you think, Gerlinde? Though it looks like its gonna storm soon."

The dark haired Ralts addressed his Honedge companion -who responded with a humming purr that meant she agreed. Kai brought a Cheri berry to his mouth, muttering, "So which way did you say the Guild Registrar's house is again? " before biting into the berry.

She gave a hearty chuckle before replying, completely ignoring her partner's question might I add, "Goodness, how many of those have you gone through today?"

Gerlinde's question prompted him to frown, but just as he was about to answer her a raindrop landed gently on his nose before its brethren followed in a dreary drizzle. "Well we better hurry up and find that house before it really starts to pour." A light hearted chuckle escaped the Ralts as he continued to stroll along.

"Okay but seriously, where is that house. At this rate our paper work is going to be drowning by the time we get there."

Tick drop. The wall clock chimed in perfect harmony with the pounding rain. Ata'halne was writing something down in a notebook, each of his silvery tails tipped with black ink, when a knock on his door caught the scraggly Ninetales' attention. "Hmm..they're late"he chuckled to himself as he padded from his desk to greet his the door he was greeted by a Ralts and a Honedge. Ninetales gave a smile though it quickly turned to a look of horror once he saw the state the duo was in"Oh my! The rain has surely done a number on you, come sit by the fire."The silver fox directed the dripping Ralts to his seat, his companion refusing to detach herself from him even with Ata's nagging that she should sit but he soon saw that it was a useless battle. With a defeated huff Ata'halne returned to his desk "More guild recruits I presume?"A devilish smirk painted his silver muzzle"Do you have your forms? I do hope they aren't wet, I'd hate to make you re-do them."It was at this moment that a young Shinx entered the room, haphazardly balancing a tea set on her head. The silver Nintales turned to face his assistant, his smirk replaced by a gentle smile"Oh you brought tea! Thank you so much my dear."

Kai presented the forms, not in entirely bad shape but the Ninetales begged to differ.

Ata curled his tails around the tea set, taking it from his assistant and setting it down at on a small table."Would you like some tea while I record this in my books?"he asked but didn't wait for an answer as he poured the Ralts some tea, hesitating before pouring the Honedge some as well"Hmmmm...these forms are all wet, all I can read is your name. It seems we both have some work to do tonight. How dreadful."the Ninetales exclaimed, wearing a smile with just a tad bit too much joy."Luckily I have some extras right here, we should be finished in just a few hours."the silver fox dipped his tails into a nearby inkwell"Now lets start."

By the time the forms were finished the sun was setting in the now clear sky and Kai was holding back a yawn.

"All finished. Now you must let me get you a map though, I don't think anyone wants to be bumbling around town looking for their let me get you some basic badges, you can customize these later with your team insignia or whatever."The Ninetales moved from his seat to go rummage through a large chest.

"Ah ha!There you are."Ata pulled a wooden box as well as a stack of papers from the chest and placed them on the table"Okay take a badge and a map."

Kai padded over to the box, peering into the box badge was the same, a bleak white circle with pink tinted wings and a golden center. The Ralts took two and pinned one onto his scarf. He then handed the other to Gerlinde, who put it on the base of her tassel. The duo was about to leave when the Ninetales spoke up.

"Oh how could I forget! You can't be accepted into the guild until you pass your entrance exams." Ata'halne exclaimed before sitting down to resume scribbling in his notebook.

"An entrance exam?"Kai gave the Ninetales a bewildered look, he didn't remember any mentions of exams.

"Yes an entrance exam, I believe for the Rescuers its a battle with the guild leaders."Ata looked up from his paper for just a second before returning to his work.

"So do we battle the guild leader as a team or as individuals?" Kai's ears perked up in curiosity as he asked his questions.

"Well that depends on you, I hear that the guild leaders are all about freedom of choice. Or maybe they're just overly confident, its very rare that a rookie beats one of them." Ata'halne answered then chuckled"I pity the fool who decides to face both of them by himself. That's almost as dangerous as attacking dear Roksana."

A soft grumble was all of Kai's reply, he was obviously deep in thought.

"Well are you going? I've got work to do"Ata'halne spoke up after a few moments before pushing the Ralts and his partner out the door."Good bye."

Even though the two were unceremoniously dropped outside of the nice warm house into the nippy cold, Kai couldn't hep but laugh"Well I guess we should go find our guild then dear Gerlinde." With a chuckle from the Honedge the two set out to challenge the guild leader.

Thanks to their new found map the duo reached the Rescuers Guild with relative was an imposing building, or maybe tree would be a better word since the guild seemed to be carved entirely into the towering oak. A large courtyard for battle stood in front of the tree and standing in the middle of the battle field was a Lopunny, she padded over to them silently before speaking in a heavily accented voice.

"You're late"she spoke, using as few words as possible"Come, lets battle."

Kai followed the Lopunny until he was on one side of the field and his opponent on the other.

"I Kira of the Rescuers Guild challenge you to battle."the leader proclaimed, not giving Kai any chance to react before jumping forward to attack with a Thunder Punch.

Luckily Gerlinde was a quick thinker, she managed to put up her Protect seconds before the electrical fist collided with Kai's face. The Ralts' face quickly changed from one of happiness to determination. Using his ability ,Kai reached out to Gerlinde You there?

Right here Kai

Mean while Kira had stepped back as was observing her opponent with idle interest, as if the battle was already one.

She seems to be waiting for us to make a move Kai glared at the Lopunny but she didn't even seem to flinch. Gerlinde ready a Sacred Sword, lets end this quickly. Although not as agile as his opponent, Kai showed impressive speed as he raced towards the female. He expected that Gerlinde's sword strike would faint Kira in one maybe two slashes. Of course it was never that easy. The leader stayed perfectly still until Kai was swinging his sword, then with lightning speed she grabbed the Honedge with her ears. She gave a sly wink to her Ralts opponent before charging her ears with electricity and electrocuting the sword along with her wielder. She didn't stop there though, tearing Gerlinde from Kai's grasp Kira tossed her aside where the blade laid paralyzed on the ground. Kai himself luckily didn't suffer from any status conditions but instead was in a debatably worse position. The Lopunny was straddling his hips, a not quite smir dancing on her lips.

"So what are you going to do now?"she asked, waiting patiently for his decision.

It too Kai only a few moments to respond, and Kira ended up with a face full of toxic spit. The Lopunny jumped back with a screech, allowing Kai to get a safe distance away. He took a second to breathe,looking around wildly for Gerlinde, though this ended up being a mistake. Kira was upon him again, face contorted in rage. This was the last thing Kai saw before he was knock out by the Lopunny's Thunder Punch.

Kai awoke sometime later in a plush bed surrounded by the gentle sent of nature. Sitting by his bed were Kira and Gerlinde. Seeing her partner awake, the sword rushed over to give him a hug. Kai said nothing, just patted her on the back and stared defensively at the Lopunny

"Are you alright kiddo? Sorry about that punch, I didn't mean to hurt ya this bad"Kira looked no longer like a battle hungry warrior,now she was a worrisome mother. This expression only lasted a second though as the leader got up to leave."Well its getting late, I'll let you get acquainted with your room, will talk business after breakfast tomorrow. Good night" The Lopunny then exited the room, her voice fading slowly as she wished other passing teams good night.

Kai looked up at the bark covered ceiling, lost in thought."Well we made it Gelinde." was all he said before closing his eyes once more to drift into peaceful sleep. Gerlinde's murmured reply of "sweet dreams" was lost as the Ralts fell into the clutches of sleep

I hope you enjoyed the chapter! Sorry its so short, but please tell me what you thought and thanks so much for reading.
