Last Chapter: After Kirlia proves Phantom wrong on how a ghost can't ever sleep, the two of them made way for the Guild. Deciding to give herself a new name, she allowed Phantom to choose it...Coming up with the name of Alice. The duo was then joined by a peculiar Scorbunny who gave himself the name of Flame...And Team FAP, standing for the initial of their made up names, was born.

Flame happily skipped along the way in front of Alice and Phantom, singing and talking to the duo while forwarding to their location, walking down the happy tree guild.

"Ugh...I can't believe we allowed him in..." Whispered Alice to Phantom, slowing down her pace. The ghost sets a hand on her shoulder. "Relax, a companion like him is like a diamond in a pile of trash I'm sure you won't regret it." Kirlia takes the hand of Phantom and turn themselves while the other one continued his path. "Except he's annoying...Remember that thing you said you did? Show it to me." "Right now?" "Yeah!"

"Guys! Guys! Come on!" The Scorbunny shouts back, waving happily at them. Phantom pats Kirlia's shoulder before rushing at Flame... and pat him on the shoulder. "So, where are we heading exactly?" Phantom ask to him as he began to walk again. Meanwhile, Kirlia got pissed off at Phantom. "...Really?" She let out a groan before hastening herself toward the duo.

"Under the big tree! This is where we are heading!" He says as they are within view of the giant cave's entrance, walking straight into it. Inside the cave they see a sort of slum-like town with little shops, taverns and the like. Certain shady types of pokemons walking in there. "Wait a minute...Are you saying your father's friend LIVES in there?" "Yeah! But he never uses the place so we're allowed to make our base there!" Scorbunny boastfully explain. "Gee...I sure wonder why." Kirlia said in a sarcastic tone. "...Your father is either a genius, or the stupidest pokemon alive." "What? No, don't say that! Daddy's the best!"

"Phantom, when you went here last night, how was it?" Alice ask. "Huh? I never came here before. What makes you think that?" "WHAT? You said you explored the whole town!" "Nah, I didn't. I spent my night doing other things." "Like what?" Phantom had a bright smile imagining what it did to the Lopunny. "Guess." Alice rolled her eyes. "I can't read your mind, I need to be a Gardevoir for that." Phantom let out a little laugh.

"WOOOOOOOAH!" Flame suddenly stop, tugging on Kirlia's arm and pat Phantom. "LOOK! IT'S TEAM GUARDIAN!" He yelled out while pointing toward at a Lucario and a Inteleon talking to a Gumshoos. "HI-" "SHH." Kirlia slammed her hand on Flame's mouth. "My parents are part of their team, the last thing I want is them to know I'm here!" She whispered. "Now be a good boy and lead us to our base silently!" She continued while pushing on the bunny, keeping her hand on his mouth.

Flame muffled sounds through her hand as they reached Enigma street, going straight into the alley between concrete buildings, the pathway illuminated by torches. From the top of their head, a Pelipper flew over them and...Spat out a box in front of a door. Phantom and Kirlia looks in disgust while Scorbunny frees himself from Kirlia's grasp to run off toward the bird...And jumping to give it a hug as the Pelipper turned around to see him and screams. "THANK YOU!"

Flame rubbed his head on the shaking bird while Kirlia facepalmed and Phantom laughed out. "They'll be coming now..." Whispered the girl. "Look on the bright side, even if they know you are here...You still have teleport po-" Kirlia teleported herself away. "...Big mouth of mine, of course." Phantom looks back...No one was coming, and the passerby couldn't give a shit if not for a little look.

"O...Okay, I brought you your stuff...Can you get off me?" Pelipper ask. "Oh! Sorry! Thank you again!" "It's a pleasure! Thought..." The bird looks around. "I'm surprised you have a base in such a place! I know of two others here, but they're..." He takes a look at Flame who smiled brightly at him, then at the little ghost who forwarded next to Scorbunny. "...Definitely adults. Don't take it the wrong way but...How old are you two? And where is your leader?"

Scorbunny tilts his head and looks back behind himself. "Huh? Where's Alice?" He ask. "She teleported away thinking the mailman's scream will lead team Guardian here, she'll be back in a few minutes I guess." Phantom shrugged while looking back. "Ah...That is a shame. I need your leader's signature before heading off." The little ghost looks back to the bird. "Hm? And how she will sign?" "PHPTH- HACK!-"

Pelipper coughed up a board with a paper and a pen on it. "I...I shouldn't have asked." Phantom said with a disgusted face. "WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAH! AMAZING! WHAT ELSE DO YOU HAVE IN THERE?" Flame ask while groping the bird's stomach. "HEY! STOP THAT!" The bird moved away from his touch. "Well...Since you need our leader's signature, why not hang with us at our base?" Phantom ask while getting inside the building.

In a split second, the little ghost get to see a pitiful sight before him. The floor littered with newspapers and shards of glass, a table with a dead potted plant and a bunch of bottles, shelves, one set of stairs heading up, a some torches fully lit. No one in sight. Phantom opens up the door.

"AHHHH! I COMPLETELY FORGOT! I NEED A KEY!" Suddenly realized the scorbunny, panicking and running on spot. "Kid...I just opened the door, why make a big deal now?" "Okay...I guess I can wait for-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" As Pelipper was talking, Flame took up the board and began to write down on it. "Huh? I'm signing for her!" He present the board to the pelipper, who was pressing his wings against his head, mouth agape. "NOOOOOOOOOO!" Scorbunny somehow filled the paper with drawings in the little time he had. Meanwhile Phantom laughed out.

"Sorry, birdie, but it seems my friend here got you covered." "Give me that." The Pelipper says with an angry tune, gobbling down the board. "*Cough* Fine, I'll take it this way, but you can be sure you'll hear of me again! Kids these days..." Pelipper began to fly away. "BYE BYE!" Waved Flame happily at him. Phantom couldn't help but chuckle.

Flame bowed down and picked up the crate and put it over his head before heading inside. "Might wanna look down, kid. There's some shards lying about." Phantom says as both of them entered the house. Phantom takes a moment to look outside and leaves the door wide open. "Wow! This is so cool! It's like we inherited a crime lord's den!" Flame says as he runs toward the table and jumps on it...And knocking over the dead plant and some bottles in the process, which fell to the ground and the floor got soaked in alcohol. "...Whoops!" He faced back Phantom while sitting down and opening the crate.

"You know, you should tr-" "WOOOOAH! PHANTOM, CATCH!" He threw over a green and purple bandanna, the little ghost catches it barely. "Hm? That's cute." Meanwhile Flame puts a red one around his neck. "THIS IS GREAT! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THOSE ARE?" He quickly got up and stand, awaiting Phantom's response, mouth agape and eyes sparkling. "...Poisoned scarfs?"

"No, silly! These are special bands! We're special!" Phantom's eye twitched. "I don't think you want to say it that way, kid." "With these bands, our special attacks will be much stronger!" Flame continued while spouting out a flame out of his mouth. "Wait, for real?" The ghost made a stick appear, it was a bit larger and thicker than the one he made back at the temple. "...Yeah, I can live with that."

Scorbunny continued looking inside the box while Phantom head over the table while putting his bandanna around its neck with the help of its tail, then takes one of the bottles, managing to open it and taking a sip. Phantom shakes its head gulping the stuff. "WOAH! WE GET BAGS!" He says while throwing one at the "feet" of Phantom, which is actually a little backpack. He takes one for himself and wear it, striking a heroic pose. "BAD GUYS! GET READY! CAUSE' WERE COMING FOR YOU!" ...Then forward himself toward Phantom, who just set down its drink, took a unopened bottle to put inside his, then wore it. "...How was I?" He ask, mouth agape. "That was cute, kid!"

"Awww, don't say it like that, I wanna be a hero!" He says while reaching down for the beer, drinking it and... "Pffft." Phantom tried not to laugh as the bunny's face violently shook back "P-FAAH!" He threw away the bottle right at the opened door. "OW!" It hits...Pelipper. The same Pelipper of earlier. Flame couldn't help but vomit and Phantom flew to the side of the bird, laughing out. "Oh my god! Man! Are you alright? Hahahahaha!"

"NO! THIS IS AWFUL! YOUR LEADER! SHE'S BEEN KIDNAPPED!" "WHAT?" "A NICKIT SAW EVERYTHING! SHE GOT KIDNAPPED AND BROUGHT TO ROCKSTUMBLE CAVE!" "HOW?- WHERE IS THAT?" "HOP IN MY MOUTH, I'M GIVING YOU TWO A RIDE!" The Pelican opened wide its mouth. "Err..." Phantom whispered, then looks back at scorbunny who swipes his mouth with a second backpack in his hand, then quickly runs toward the bird and jumps into his mouth. "ACK-"

Pelipper covered his nose and gags. "EURK!- BY ARCEUS, WHAT DID YOU DO?"
