[Blue's P.O.V]

"Blue!"

I whizzed around to see Green walking towards me. Oh shit. What did I do?

"You..dropped...this." He said. He looked at me with a slightly strange look before walking away. I looked down at the paper and gasped.

Oh my goodness.

I face-palmed and sighed. Sapphire was beside me. "what's the matter?"

"Oh! It's nothing. That reminds me, don't you have Passion class?" I asked Sapphire. "I do..but..I sorta ran away. I was going to go but my dad was chasing me! I totally forgot all about it." Sapphire gasped. "Come on, Miss, We are sending you back to class."

"No! I can't. I just can't." Sapphire sighed. "Please, not today." I sighed. "Fine. Let's go to the apartments." I said and we walked to the direction of the apartment sections.

When I was in front of the Apartment sector, my jaw dropped and my eyeballs were going to pop out. "What's wrong?" Sapphire asked as she looked at my face. "I'm really going crazy soon." I muttered.

There was a large beautiful silver gate that separates the school and the apartments sector. There were gargoyles along the walkway to the reception. The decor and furnishing was just amazing.

After Sapphire managed snap me out of my dazed state, we went to check in. "Oh yeah, Crystal and Yellow are gonna stay with us too!" Sapphire cried. "How do you know them?" I asked.

"I knew Crystal because she had worked under my dad as for Yellow, she befriended me." Sapphire smiled. "Oh yes, why do you guys not have uniforms?" I asked even though it was the principal's idea.

"We do not have uniforms but we have dressing rules. Like for the girls, our skirts must not be shorter than half of your thigh and it has to be either that or midi or maxi skirts. And if we are wearing shorts, which is only allowed on Thursdays and Fridays must not be above one third of your thighs." Sapphire explained. "The reason why we don't have uniforms is because of identification purposes."

"Ohh! I thought it was because the principal wanted students to show off their creativity." I laughed.

"That's true too." Sapphire said as we were in the lift. "Anyway, if you are wondering, because we are a school of high standards, our dressing sense must be good as well. If those are identified as 'out', have to go for fashion classes. Which are quite embarrassing. Thus, we try hard to dress good too. Oh! We also have an annual beauty pageant for the girls. Which I do not fancy at all." Sapphire's blanched.

All apartments start from the third floor. "Ohh, the apartments are like a penthouse condominiums. All of them are 3 stories." Sapphire explained. "The first floor's the reception, the second floor is mostly the equipment, swimming pool, gym, study room, dance studio, music room, a few clothing shops. I think there's more though." I choked as Sapphire explained.

"I'm sure glad that you are here with me ahahah! I think I would be a lost sheep" I laughed.


[Narrator's P.O.V]

A figure clutched her head as she limped down the hallway. Thank God, there were no students. She made her way to the elites lounge. She knocked on the door.

The door was opened by Steven and before the woman could say anything, she fell unconscious on the floor. Steven caught her and carried her in. "Sidney, Phoebe, get Lance and the rest and get some cloth and water!" Steven started raising his voice after he had shut the door.

Sidney and Phoebe ran out, to see what was going on. They immediately ran to get some water and cloth and get the other elites.

Lance, Lorelei and Koga rushed out to see what happened. "What happened to her?!" Lorelei cried as they rushed forward to check on her. "She suffering from fatigue and stress." Koga said. Phoebe and Steven took the cloth and water and wiped her face.

After a while, the woman opened her eyes and saw all of them. She tried to get up. "Urgh."

"Tiffany! What happened?!" Lance spoke.

"He had been here. I got attacked when he saw me. I had to lead him out the vicinity. If not other people might get hurt." Tiffany answered as she check on her pokemon. "My pokemon has been quite hurt to but thankfully they are strong." Tiffany stood up and healed up pokemon in the pokehealer.

Lance took out the report that Green had sent him. "He had attacked the lab Blue and Green were inside during lesson." Lance said.

"We need to be cautious." Steven said. "Do we report this to Professor Oak?" Koga asked. "No...don't, think about Blue. It's only her first day in school and this had already happened. We should give some time. Maybe he will stop."

The others truly wanted to believe that. "Fine. We'll see how it goes." Lance said, "Tiffany, Are you teaching tomorrow?"

"Of course. Why not?"

[Narrator's P.O.V]

It was an awkward scene. Blue and Sapphire's helpless face, Crystal, Yellow and the rest of the apartment-mates shock and beyond belief look.

"How the hell is this even possible?! The school has seriously bad taste of house-mate combination!" Crystal screamed as she tried not to look at the other apartment-mates.

"There's nothing we can do, Crystal." Sapphire said, awkwardly.

Crystal received a call from Professor Oak. "Great timing." Crystal pressed on her pokegear. "Hello, Professor."

"Are all of you and your apartment mates there?" The professor asked. "Timely enough." Crystal's voice was filled with sarcasm. "Care to explain why are we in this situation, Professor?"

"We can't explain it now but it will be very beneficial as time passes by. I want all if you to be at my lab in...10 minutes." Professor Oak said.

"Are you kidding us, Prof?!" One of the apartment mates said. "How are we even gonna get there in 10 minutes?"

"Less talking, more movement!" The professor said and hanged up.

The other apartment-mates were basically 'rivals' of each the girls. Gold, nephew of Professor Elm, the champion of the Indigo Plateau, Red, son of Petalburg Gym leader, Ruby, and Green, grandson of Professor Oak.


Crystal grunted and stormed our of the house. They rest of them automatically moved out of the house, taking out their flying pokemon with the exception of Blue. When all of them turn back to see Blue, she was gone.

After the rings disappeared, Blue looked around. Yup, this is the lab. "Thanks, Ala!" Blue said to her Alakazam and she waited for the rest to arrive here.

-10 minutes later-

"How did you get here so fast?!" Yellow asked Blue as all of them were shocked to see Blue before them. "There are other faster methods to get to places." Blue smiled as she pushed open the door of the lab.

"Ahh! Hello there! Great to see you coming here together." Professor Oak said, oblivious to the awkwardness around the apartment mates. Just then Professor hurled 8 boxes into their faces.

"Ouch!"

"Whoa!"

"Eeks!"

"What the Oof-!"

"Yikes"

The ones who only manages to catch the box were Blue, Green and Ruby. The rest had the boxes in their face. "Professor!" They screamed. "Blue, I'm impressed by your reflexes! That's the first key when it comes to become a good pokemon trainer!" Professor Oak praised her.

"Um, thanks?" Blue said and eyes were on her again.

"Back to the topic, those boxes aren't exactly boxes. Please open it." The professor said. The eight of them opened up the boxes and they almost drop it except for Blue, Sapphire, Crystal, Green and Gold.

"This..is a pokedex!" Blue said and Professor Oak nodded. "I'm giving it to you." The professor added. "It's so rare. But why are you giving to us?" Blue said as the pokedex had registered her name, so did the other pokedexes had the other trainer's name respectively. "It is for a certain reason. Everything that we are doing now is a preparation."

"What preparation?" Crystal said as she rubbed her forehead.

"This is highly confidential and we are not revealing anything for the moment." The professor said. "But, why am I in this?" Blue said, confused. "because, you are important." The professor said"Now, go and find out how to use it and start using it and now please go out now. I need to do an experiment."

"But, professor! Why am I-!" Blue tried to asked but instead, the 8 of them was pushed out of the lab. Awkwardness fills them again.

"Let's go for dinner?" Gold suggested. "Sounds good to me." Yellow said and Red followed. They headed for dinner.


[Blue's P.O.V]

Why did the professor say I'm important? Does it have anything to do with my arrival at the school?

Wait a second, Lance! Oh that idiot! I can't believe he actually did that! Urgh! What the hell!

We were now walking towards the cafeteria of the apartment sector on the second floor. Many girls were throwing look at Crystal, Yellow, Sapphire and me. This made me even more uncomfortable.

"Erm guys..can we..go to a more less crowded place?" I uttered. They looked around. "Students aren't allowed to leave the school vicinity after 9pm."

"What?! It's 9 already?" I asked. "Erm yes." They all answered me monotonously. "Fine. But why is everyone staring at the 4..of us?" I asked awkwardly. "That's because we are popular and not every girl is able to dine with us." Gold said.

"Who said we wanted to-!" Crystal started but Sapphire and Yellow clamped her mouth shut with her palms. I stared in awe with my mouth hanging slightly. "Crystal, do you want to be in deep shit?" Yellow whispered.

"What is going on?" I asked.

"We'll explain later. In the mean time, let's just grab dinner and back to our apartment!" Sapphire said and they went into the cafeteria for dinner.


A blonde girl stepped into the house. She walked to a particular room and something pink came of her hair, revealing her brown, natural hair. "Lance, Can I please get back to school?"

"There's no need. You are smart enough." He said as he was analyzing an information.

"But still, Lance, why can't I be like everybody else? Going to school having fun, leading a more 'normal life'.." Blue said as she sat on a chair. Lance paused and pondered for a moment.

"All my life, I have been serving many people. Don't I get to serve myself? Lance, I wanna thank you for being a great brother to me but can't I have more freedom?" Blue said. Lance still kept quiet.

"Alright Blue, you can go. But on a few conditions." Lance finally said. Blue's face lit up. "You have to study in the school I'm teaching and you have to keep your identity a secret. You can't reveal what you were."

"Lance, can I reveal some of my truth? Like my birthplace, my age. I just want to feel normal." Blue said. Lance nodded. "But, let me tell you something." Blue stopped walking. "You won't be normal there. Trust me. But I won't let you go to another school."

Blue smiled and nodded "Thanks Lance, I know that, I'm not that normal too." and left the room As soon as Blue left the room, Lance sighed.

"I'm sorry, Blue, but I know you are strong enough to handle yourself. I will still protect you, so don't worry." Lance said to himself and dialed a phone number.


That's all for today! See you in the next chapter!
