Hi guys, AR4E here

Sorry about the old 'A Mermaids Test' I just didn't know how to continue it, so I make a new story which is this story that you will be reading.

Pokemon is (unfortunately) NOT owned by me. If it was, Contestshipping, Pokeshipping, Ikarishipping, Oldrivalshipping, and Leaf will be real.

I am also willing to accept readers ideas so post it to me and I will do them.

P.S. If you want to know who Aqua-Marina is look at the bottom of my page - there is a list of OC characters.


A Mermaids Test

Chapter 1: Applying

' '- Fashion Brands

Present Day...

As the mermaids walked up to the beach they each had the same level of worry and excitement. They had never been out of the sea before. Surprisingly none of them were wet.

Misty was wearing a blue 'Animal' top, that had a sequin design of a dolphin, with white leggings, that had turquoise wave patterns on it - at the bottom, and a cream colored 'pull and bear' crop sweatshirt. She had blue and green 'Jimmy Choo' flip flops which had the blue straps hooked around her ankle. Her hair was down with a blue horsea hair clip with a pearl at the end of the tail. She is the fastest and came up to the surface first.

May was wearing a red Haslemere Hoodie, that covered her black and brown shirt, with white short shorts and red trainers. Her hair was it's normal style. Dawn was wearing coral pink dress that reached her knees and a dark pink cardigan that reaches her waist. Her hair was in a high ponytail with a waterlily hairclip holding her hair. Leaf was wearing a green and turquoise top with jet-black skinny jeans and a black leather jacket.

Aqua-Marine (A.M for short) was wearing a lilac short dress that came to her waist and a long-sleeved amber satin jacket. She was also wearing a lilac and amber scarf and no shoes. Her hair was in a bun with waves (hair) coming from the back, it waves secured with a gold comb that has lilac and amber gemstones on. Aqua-Marine is the youngest of the five.


Time Skip...

They were all at their flat. It was an eight bedroom house. It had five rooms, one kitchen, one living room and one guest bedroom.

"Ok, first things first," Leaf said "Finding the items" NONE of them were listening

"Guys, why do we have to do this to graduate?" Dawn moaned annoyingly

"We just do. I'm more concerned about how they put it down. Did they have to put it in a riddle, I can't understand half of it" May turned the paper upside down.

"Focus!" Misty shouted "So, who is going to find which items?"

"How about this," Dawn started "We draw straws"

Next Day -XxX- Next Day

Aqua-Marine's POV

BEEP, BEEP, BEEP

I woke up 1) In a silver room, 2) In clothes I didn't know I had and 3) Without my mermaid tail. The room I was in had silver walls, silver floor and a turquoise carpet. There was a 4-poster bed made out of birch tree wood and painted light turquoise and gold. I had a walk-in closet, painted light turquoise and gold, a desk, a TV, computer, and a whole bunch of other things - all of which painted (surprise) light turquoise and gold. I looked at my alarm clock that said 6:00.

The only things that were mine was my horsea and all my other Pokemon, in their pokeballs, and my suitcase that has nothing in it.

The morning was a blur, I couldn't remember anything, and only after 5 minutes of hard thinking did I remember...

Flashback

"How about this," Dawn started "We draw straws"

"Drawing straws, isn't that a bit too unorganized?" Leaf asked

"I think it's fine" For once I actually spoke up...

"It's great," May stated, ignoring me. ...and, like always, they just go by as if I don't exist. "If we don't like it, we can just swap."

"Misty?"

"I only care if we get it done" she said calmly

Flashback Ended

So now I have to find the ...wait for it... Amber Comb.

If I remember correctly Dawn has the water of youth, Misty has the crystal pearl, May has the sapphire shell and Leaf is hunting the ivory crab.

I got out of bed and walked to my walk-in closet. I had alot of clothes since Leaf and Dawn took us shopping yesterday. Since I couldn't decide I got dressed in a turquoise dress - that went just above my knees – with a silver belt, a silver cardigan, silver jeans and some turquoise flip-flops. I desided to put my hair in a plait that's tied with a turquoise and silver ribbon. As you can tell, turquoise and silver are my favourite colours.

When I went downstairs I wasn't surprised that only Misty was there, since it's normally like that.

"Hi" Misty uttered.

"Hi" I answered.

As I was getting cereal out from the cupboard Leaf and Dawn came down.

Leaf was wearing a Green short-sleeved top with light green shorts and jacket. She had her hair into a messy bun and her fringe in a sparkly green clip. Green high-heels adorn her feet. Dawn was wearing a pink and black top with black shorts and a black leather coat. Her hair was left down but still had her clips in it, this time pink. Pink sandals adorned her feet. Misty was wearing a light blue short-sleeved top with dark blue jogging bottoms. Her hair was in its normal side pony-tail and her had blue and white trainers on.

"May not awake yet?" I asked. All of us knew the answer to that.

"Can someone go wake her?" Misty asked in monotone.

"I'll go" I answered, receiving lots of thank-you's and your-the-best's.

Let's just say May is not the easiest person to wake-up. By 9:00 we were all eating breakfast.

May was wearing a red top with red trousers and red jackets, trainers and bandanna. Her Hair was in it's normal puppy ears.

"So were should we start looking?" I asked

"hdkiose abskru iabvg gtksz" May 'spoke'

"MAY, SWALLOW YOUR FOOD" Misty shouted, as always.

"I said, How about in town."

"Well then, what are we waiting for, LETS GO!"

Time Skip...

We were now in the middle of Cerulean City trying to find a good place to look. Right now, we had six ideas.

Idea 1: Cerulean City Gym (Misty's Idea)

Idea 2: Poke Mart (Leaf's Idea)

Idea 3: Viridian Forest (Also Leaf's Idea, which Misty screamed at)

Idea 4: Food Stores (May's Idea)

Idea 5: Clothes Stores. (Dawn's idea)

Idea 6: (my personal favourite) We give up, go home, say we couldn't find the gems and that they are lost to the world.

Of course that would cause a huge panic in the sea. But still ... WHO CARES

We split up into pairs.

Dawn and Leaf - Forest and Poke Mart

Misty and May - Cerulean City Gym and Food Stores

Me - Clothes Stores

xXx

After 30 minutes of looking, I couldn't find a thing until the strangest thing happened...

Flashback

I was in a store called 'Indigo Blue'. I was just minding my own business when I bumped into someone. Being the nice and shy person I am, I screamed at him.

"HEY! Don't you think you can just do th..."

It wasn't my fault I stopped short, It was because...

1. He was handsome.

2. He has the sweetest eyes and

3. Around his neck, in a silver chain, was... The Crystal Pearl.

Flashback Ended

I wanted to tell Misty, since she's supposed to be searching for The Crystal Pearl, but she was on the other side of the city and but the time I would get to her the guy would have already gone. So I could just make a mental note of what he looked like. That and I could follow him.

It was pretty hard following that guy 'cause every 5 or so seconds he would turn around and see if anybody was watching him. I followed him down through the whole mall, it was like he was sending me on a wild goose chase. I was just blocking behind a wall when I saw him walk past some church-like building. It was massive. It had 4 towers - each facing north, south, east and west - and on top of each of those towers was one church bell. The outside looked like it had come out of a fairytale, the walls were washed in white and the doors didn't have a speck of dust or dirt. But that was only the building, around it was a amazing garden filled with flowers of all kinds, a wall around the garden and gates blocking every entrance. There was a signboard saying 'Cerulean Palace - Entry Application - Last Day To Apply'.

It was then I got a brillant idea.

Without telling anyone, I stopped following the guy and went inside. I went to a desk that had just ten applications left. I put in all the necessary information, signed all our names and put it in the applications box that was beside the table.

Lets just hope the others aren't mad at me...
