Well, I jinxed myself. NO reviews. Wow. Come on, guys.
Moemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia
Chapter 54
"We have discovered that Brighton Hall did indeed write this diary." Professor Hastings said, frowning. We were standing in the research room, computers beeping at all sides. Professor Hastings was standing next to a small pedestal with a small black crystal inside of it, hidden beneath a dome of glass. "It seems that he made a great discovery thirty years ago. A mysterious, gigantic black stone was imbedded onto the dias. He began examining the stone, and believed that the dark energy it put out would be enough to power all of Almia. But that's all we've discovered so far…"
Professor Hastings looked at the dark crystal imbedded in the pedestal, as if trying to look inside of it.
"However, the power it gives off is anything but good…" Professor Hastings said, frowning.
"So, it seems we've found a connection between Altru and the Shadow Crystal." Murph said, walking over to the sample. Suddenly, he began glowing with a bright blue light. The light was blinding at first, and I had to close my eyes to shield myself from it. However, the light soon died down, and Murph was just shining with a small, faint blue light.
"M-Murph, why is your chest shining?" Professor Hastings asked, surprised. Looking closer, I could see that it wasn't him who was shining, it was his chest. Something inside of it…
"Murph, show us what's in your chest!" I said, frowning.
"Well, alright…" Murph said, unbuttoning his shirt. A small pendent made out of a blue crystal was hanging from his neck, and it was shining.
"Whoa…" Petal said, staring at the pendent enviously. "It's so pretty…"
"Wait, Professor, look at these readings!" One of the scientists studying the black crystal said, shocked.
"Amazing…" Professor Hastings said softly, staring at the computer screen. "Murph, it appears your pendent is actually causing the power levels of these black stones to drop!"
"Really?" Murph asked, surprised. "Because this is just some old pendent my dad gave me…"
"Out of what?" Professor Hastings pressed, frowning.
"Special stones called 'Tears of Princes' that are found in the Hia Valley." Murph explained. "He said some old woman made it for him."
"Hia Valley, hm?" Professor Hastings said, frowning. He pondered this for a long time, and then appeared to reach some sort of conclusion.
"Murph, it appears we need to have someone go investigate the Hia Valley!" Professor Hastings said. He then turned to me.
"Kellyn, to Hia Valley immediately!" Professor Hastings said. "There, you must seek out Yoda, and- oh, wait, never mind. Um… just find the woman that made that pendent for Murph and investigate it."
"Can I go too?" Petal asked.
"Fine, fine, but make sure you two get actual work done." Hastings said, frowning. "Now, get a move on, you two!"
"Yes, sir!" The two of us said, saluting him. We turned and ran out of the research room, and returned to my room.
"Welcome back, master!" My three moemon said, smiling. The three of them were sitting on the bed, playing cards.
"Alright, Kelly, you'd better start packing." Petal ordered. "Bring some warm clothes."
"Right." I said, nodding, grabbing my backpack. I grabbed some heavy jackets and clothes, and packed them in around the egg in order to keep it warm. I then pulled on a large bulky coat and ski pants.
"Wait, why are you guys packing?" Mary asked, concerned.
"We're going to Hia Valley." I answered. "We got a mission."
"Yay! Mission!" Mary cheered.
"Hey, you're not going!" Kurou said, frowning. "You got to go last time! It's my turn!"
"No way!" Nyu interjected. "It's my turn. This is the Hia Valley! Snow-covered tundra, ice-tipped mountains… ICE MOEMON?"
"Yeah, Nyu would be like the perfect choice!" Petal said, nodding. "I mean, who's better for the ice area than an ice moemon?"
"Yeah, it's my show now, bitches!" Nyu cheered, scoffing at Mary and Kurou. "Alright, let's go, master! To Hia Valley!"
…
"So where is Hia Valley, anyway?" Nyu asked, frowning. "I lived in a wet cave my whole life, I have no idea where it is."
"Then how do you know so much about it?" Petal asked.
"Kurou and I have been by ourselves for days! There's nothing to do but read magazines and have sex!" Nyu explained. "So I read this travel brochure about the Hia Valley, and well…"
"I understand." Petal said, nodding. "Anyways, let's go ask around to find out where it is."
An hour later, after Wendy having told us how to get to Hia Valley (but wouldn't fly us there) the three of us stood on the dock of the river that would lead us to Hia Valley.
"Alright, so Wendy said we have to catch two Floatzel and use them to swim up to a cave that we have to go through to reach Hia Valley." Petal told me.
"I know." I answered, raising an eyebrow. "I was there, remember?"
"Oh, yeah." Petal said, nodding. "So who was I explaining it for?"
Almost as if on cue, two Floatzel swam up. They wore orange and tan dresses and had yellow towels around their necks. They had orange hair with tan tips tied down their backs in two tails, and had bright red eyes.
"Alright, Nyu, use icy wind!" I ordered. Nyu opened her mouth, and released a blast of icy wind at the two, freezing the water around them. We shot out our capture stylers, the disks of light spinning around them, creating glowing rings. After a few seconds, the two Floatzel were caught by us.
Moemon: Floatzel
Type: Water
Poke Assist: Water
Field Move: Swim x1
Info: Floatzel are very strong moemon, and are very strong swimmers. They are often used to cross over rivers, and have developed closeness to humans.
"Alright, let's get going!" I said, climbing onto the Floatzel I'd captured, Nyu holding onto my back as Petal got onto hers. The two Floatzel shot across the river, and approached the cave.
So, how was that? Good enough for reviews, I hope.
