Chapter 6: Day Off

It was just an average morning for the not so average Rescue Team…

"Good news everyone!" said Buffy walking in.

"You have a horrifying mission for us?" asked Naruto.

"What? No…" said Buffy, "You guys earned enough points to be Bronze rank!" said Buffy.

"Really?" said Asuna.

"Wait… what's a Bronze rank?" asked Luffy.

"You haven't been paying attention… have you?" asked Buffy.

Not surprisingly Luffy shook his head no, surprisingly Naruto, Ranma, Momoko and Asuna also shook their heads no as well… Chiyo-Chan was the only one who knew… this caused Buffy to sigh.

"Well each rescue team is ranked… you were just promoted to doing missions you earn points you are now the 2nd rank… that is why I'm, giving you the day of with no missions!" said Buffy who then left for no apparent reason.

"I really don't like Buffy…" said Ranma.

"Ditto…" said Asuna.

"Does anyone want to go to the Town Square?" asked Chiyo-Chan.

Everyone agreed since they had nothing else better to do. Later the team was heading to the town square… That's when they noticed a crowd. The 6 former humans ran up ahead. There was a Jumpluff pleading to a Shiftry and two Nuzleaf.

"What's going on?" asked Chiyo-Chan to a Cherubi.

"Well Jumpluff's friend is like stuck and a it will take like a strong wind to free her friend and Shiftry is like the only who can do it but Shiftry is like all greedy and stuff so he refuses to do with out a big reward…" said Cherubi.

The 6 former humans sweatdroped…

"Did any one catch that?" asked Asuna.

"Nope…" said Naruto.

"Please…" begged Jumpluff.

"No way!" said Shifty

"What's going on here!" demanded a voice behind Shiftry and the Nuzleaf.

They turned and saw Alakazam, Charizard and Tyranitar… that's when almost every single female Pokemon in the area screamed like fangirls.

"It's Team ACT!" screamed Cherubi.

"Team ACT?" asked Luffy.

"I heard about them they're a very high ranked team… and it's very famous…" said Chiyo-Chan.

"I can see that…" said Ranma.

"Alakazam… hello there!" said Shiftry nervously.

""What's this about wanting a reward…" said Alakazam.

"Oh… um… let's go rescue that Jumpluff!" said Shiftry nervously, "Don't worry your friend will be safe!"

That's when Shiftry and the Nuzleaf left.

"Thank you Alakazam…" said Jumpluff.

"It was no problem…" said Alakazam.

They walked though the crowd after passing Team Ninja Sentai Pirate king Alakazam stopped for a second.

"What is it?" asked Charizard.

"It's nothing…" said Alakazam.

Before they could continue on their way Tyranitar stopped them.

"Hey wait!" said Tyranitar, "It's that strange team… the one with super powered Chikorita and Squirtle, the stretchy Chimchar and the Treeko that can change genders with water…"

"That's just a rumor…" said Charizard.

As if on cue a Remoraid and a Staryu stuck their heads out of a nearby stream.

"Hey Star! I bet I can shoot farther than you…" said the Remoraid.

"Yaah right…" said the Staryu.

The Remoraid shot a Water Gun into the air… of course the water hit Ranma.

"Damn it…" said Ranma-Chan.

"Se I told you they existed! You owe me 5 Poke!" said Tyranitar.

"Come on you too…" said Alakazam.

And so Team ACT left… causing a few sweat drops.

"I caused a bet?" asked Ranma-Chan to no one in particular.

And so the group broke up, Asuna went to look around, Chiyo-Chan went to go shopping while the others went to go a restaurant that they knew of fortunately they ate there for free as they once rescued the owner's kid.

Sometime later Asuna was off on her own somewhere… almost in a meditative state… then she sighed. "This is going nowhere… I have no idea where it comes from let alone where it comes… how am I going to get into contact with him if I don't know how to…" said Asuna, "Maybe I should go the restaurant…"

Meanwhile Chiyo-Chan had just finished food shopping for everyone…

"Okay… I should head to the restaurant… Luffy or Naruto should be there at least…" said Chiyo-Chan.

With the group that went to a restaurant Luffy and Naruto were engaged in a ramen eating contest.

"Hey…" said Ranma (who had since changed back to being male), "Do you guys REALLY want to go back home…"

This caused the contest to stop and all three to stare at him.

"You don't want to go back?" asked Naruto.

"Well… it was just something I wanted to ask…" said Ranma, "It doesn't mean I don't want to go back… I was just wondering"

"I do…" said Luffy, "If I stay here I can't become King of the Pirates!"

"That's right! And I can't become Hokage…" said Naruto, "Or fulfill my promise to Sakura" he added mentally.

"I want to go back to..." said Momoko.

"Please don't start a rant about cute boys or your obligations as a super hero…" said Asuna walking up to their table.

Momoko pouted, "You didn't have to put it that way…" she said.

"What are you talking about anyways?" asked Asuna.

"About if we really want to go back…" said Momoko.

"I do…" said Asuna, "I don't know why but there's a reason I have to go back… and…"

"And what?" asked Momoko.

"The school festival is coming up…" said Asuna.

This caused everyone to anime fall.

"That's a good reason… I guess…" said Ranma.

"What are you talking about?" asked Chiyo-Chan joining them.

"About if we want to really go back…" said Luffy.

"So what about you…" said Asuna.

"Of course I do! I can't just leave my life behind! I don't want my friends and family to worry about me…" said Chiyo-Chan.

"She has a good point…" said Naruto, "I hope everyone's okay…"

"I hope Zoro and the others are okay and don't think the Marines captures me or I drowned…" said Luffy.

"Don't worry I'm sure that everything's fine!" said Momoko.

"Yeah…" agreed Chiyo-Chan.

"Ranma…" said Asuna, "I'm pretty sure you're the one that started this conversation…"

"You don't want to go back do you?" asked Chiyo-Chan.

"Look! I never said that!" said Ranma, "Just drop it! Okay!"

"Fine…" said Momoko who grabbed a nearby glass of water with her vines and splashed him, this caused everyone to snicker.

"Not funny!" yelled Ranma-Chan.

And so the rest of the day was fairly relaxing… knowing that the next day it was back to doing missions again…

Next Time: The Caterpie they saved is back... and his friend is lost... but when Team Meanies is back, a race starts up... the stakes are high, if they lose Caterpie has to join Team Meanies! What will happen? Find out next time!
