Blue was more than happy to see me as we walked into the Pokemon Center, coming up to me and actually nuzzling against my leg a little bit. "Well, somebody's happy to see me! You all good bud?" I ask him, glancing up to the Nurse. "Did he give you any troubles?"

Nurse Joy shook her head with a smile. "No sir, he was well behaved and got all the help he needed! Now he'll be a little sore for a while, so try to keep him out of battling for today. And away from Seviper, they go a tad bit… feral, when faced with their enemy."

"Oh yeah, I kind of saw that first hand…" I look to Blue again, reaching down and giving him a small scratch behind the ears. He is surprisingly cuddly right now. "Well, thank you again, Nurse Joy. We should be off."

The Nurse nodded with a bright smile. "Be safe, now! We are always here to help!"

I give a wave back as I walk out of the Center, coming back to the group as Blue figures out his collar again. "Ah, there we go! They needed work around my neck, dinked around the collar some. Sorry PiT." He looked up to Dallas and tapped on the side of the collar. "Thankfully not broken. Your work stays intact!"

Dallas smiled and let out a small sigh mostly of relief, kneeling down and looking at the box on the collar. "Hm… Yep, no damage at all! You'd assume they would take it off, but at least they tried to be mostly gentle with it. When we get back to Station I'll take it off to have a better look at it."

I nod when Dallas comes back up, looking to our very own group Ranger. "So, Candice, mind leading the way? You are the Ranger here!"

Candice nods and stars off, down the one road to the dome roofed Ranger Station, looking back at me with a mildly interested look on her face. "So, what brought on wanting to head back there? I doubt Kenny would have caught all your fancy that much."

I shrug a little and glance back quickly, scoping out Vince again. "Oh, y'know… Just to talk about stuff. Important stuff. In a safe, protected place."

"Oooookay… Cryptic. I like it."

"Yeah, I can be cryptic sometimes." Especially if it's for something a bit more important than what others think I would get myself involved with. Especially… when it's something I told my mom I wouldn't get involved with. She'll understand.

At the Station, I stand by the door as it opens to make sure everybody, including our new 'friend', makes it inside. When inside, I look around and notice two new people inside, and judging by their outfits, they were Rangers as well. One was a shorter redheaded guy, maybe around my height, and the other was a woman damn near six feet tall and built like a Machoke; buff as all hell.

The woman turned and cocked her head. "Oi, Candice. Y'know the rules, no non-Rangers unless it's an emergency."

Candice jumped a little and, for the first time since meeting, seemed nervous. "Oh, sorry, Chelo. I said in my report yesterday I was going to travel the region, this is the group I was going with." She motioned to Me, Blue, Dallas, and Vincent. "Walter wanted to come here for some reason, and I was going to report I was about to head out. It just seemed like good timing."

The woman, Chelo, nodded some and looked at the group. "Hm. Alright, I suppose that's good enough." She looked at us again, a smile coming on her face. "Sorry about that, just some regulations. You know how it is. I'm Chelo, the Head Ranger of Icirrus City, and this Austin." She patted the guy on the back. "We're also the Union Rangers of Unova."

I give a small wave with a smirk, realizing this may be sort of perfect. "Hi, I'm Walter, you can call me Walt. This is my partner, Blue," I pat Blue on the head. "And these guys are Dallas and Vincent," I nod to each of them, "The latter of which, I think we seriously need to talk to."

I watched as Vincent tensed up, looking to everyone quickly and panicked before, out of nowhere and in a way I wasn't expecting, started to speak. "Yes you do! I have a lot to talk about something very important!" He reached into his pocket and pulled out a PokéNav. "I also have something you need to hear, too!" He let out a long breath and chuckled awkwardly. "Oh… Oh, Mew, that was killing me, I needed to get that out…"

I blinked a few times and looked at the Nav, giving out a little cough. "Uh… Yeah, good to hear you'll go along with it."

Chelo seemed about as confused as I did at the sudden outburst from Vincent, and took a moment before speaking again. "Well? Out with it already!"

Vincent took in a deep breath and walked over to one of the tables and sat down, placing his Nav and loading up a recording. "Alright, you all may want to sit down for this."


"I TOLD YOU!" I shouted after the message finished playing, a stern yet entertained smirk on my face as I looked at my group. "I said! Team Vision! Were bad guys! And that just proved it!" I glance around a little, not really getting the reaction I expect. "...right?"

Candice takes a long, deep breath, before groaning and delivering a firm smack upside the back of my head. Almost forgot how much that hurt. "Yes, it's messed up that Vision would want to get a kid in trouble so Celebi would appear."

Chelo continues, "But collecting all the Legendaries is sort of a thing a lot of people try to do, like catching one of every Pokémon."

For the first time since we met, Austin spoke up. "It may be a hobby some Trainers go for, but that is still very dangerous!" At least someone was on my side. "Also, didn't Vincent here just tell you they were borderline torturing a kid? That's more than enough to get on those fuckers!" He had a mouth on him.

Dallas chimed in. "I know I'm not a Ranger, but I agree with Walter and Austin, this isn't something you guys can just overlook." He turned to me and gave a small thumbs up with a smile.

"If I may," Blue let out out of borderline nowhere to the Rangers' surprise, "Legendaries not be taken lightly. I think not even one should be controlled by Human. Too dangerous, use them for war, deadly for everyone."

There's a moment of stunned silence from the Rangers in charge, which led me to speak up first. "So, sounds like it's four against two-"

Vincent cut me off. "Five against one. I don't want to be part of what Vision is doing anymore. They need to be stopped and taken down."

I narrow my eyes some at Vincent before a small grin grows. "Five against one. Sounds like you guys should do something about that, you're a sort of authority aren't you? Or do we call the League folk since they're the actual government here or…?"

"Actually," Kenny from his desk spoke up, "We would have to go to the League. Since we just started up, though, the Rangers aren't seen as too trustworthy for major issues like this, so we really can't do shit."

"Oh. So, the League it is. Hope that doesn't mess with my challenge..." That was sort of selfish to say, but I want to do this. I cannot be stopped!

"Nah, it shouldn't," Kenny continued, "The League keeps on top of the Gym challenges and does all the important governmental stuff at the same time. They rarely fail at their job."

I nod with a smile. "Good! In that case," I look at Vincent, who still seemed a bit nervous, "If you promise not to do anything shady and stay on a very close leash, I guess you can come with me. You were quick to turn in those Vision guys, so that puts you on the trustable list, but you're way down there."

Vincent actually smiled a little bit. "Oh, uh… Y'know what, I can live with that, I'll feel a lot safer with a group and you guys definitely seem able to hold your own. Also… you're kinda the only people I know, well, sorta know, I did only just meet you guys, but you're the only ones I know in Unova."

I nod now that we had found a mutual agreement. "Alright, seems like everything is planned for us. You Rangers will handle Visions. Sounds to me likes it's onwards to Nacrene City!"
