"Finally I'm ready for the contests!" May cried coming out of the Contest Hall holding her contest pass. May and Drew finally got their contest passes to enter the contests located in the Glenn Region. May was still dancing around with it. Drew just stood there watching May dance around.

"You know that if you keep waving it in the air, it'll fly away from your hands?" Drew sneered. May stopped and looked at him in a angry expression.

"You know, you always ruin the fun for everyone," May scowled at Drew but he didn't move just pushed her away.

"You know life isn't all fun and games," Drew spoke softly, "But it seems that you think you'll get everything you want."

"No," May replied fast, "It's you who thinks that way. You're such a show-off."

"I thought after getting your passes, that both of you would get along more better," came a familiar voice. May turned around and saw Violet along with Clover.

"Hi Violet," May greeted happily then glared at Clover.

"Hi Clover," May muttered angrily still glaring at her.

"Hello May," Clover said angrily, "I see you really love hanging out with your boyfriend."

May gritted her teeth and felt like hitting Clover, "He's not my boyfriend!"

"Ok, both of you relax," Violet scolded at both of them. May and Clover stopped but still glared at each other. Drew stood a little far away and looked at them clueless and pulled May back.

"I think you were happy about your contest pass," Drew reminded May, wanting her to be happy instead of angry.

"Please," Clover taunted, "The only way you are going to win this Grand Festival is by beating me in it."

Clover pointed at May but Drew slapped it away from her.

"Have you ever been in the Grand Festival?" May asked, sneering at Clover. Clover opened her mouth but then closed it.

"No but I will be in it this time and I'll win," Clover answered, "Just as long Drew is there cheering for me."

Clover grabbed Drew and started hugging him. May glared at Clover completely. Drew tried to get her off but she kept hugging him. Clover turned to May and smirked at her.

"What, afraid of losing your boyfriend?" she taunted getting off of Drew.
May gritted her teeth again and glared at Clover and felt like attacking her, "For the last time, he's not my boyfriend! He's not even my friend!"

Drew heard May's words and felt a little strange but walked to May and pulled her back "Shouldn't we be going?"

May sighed but was still mad at her, "You're right."
"Hey why don't we have lunch?" Violet asked nervously. May and Drew looked at Violet and agreed. "Sure."
---------------------------------------------
May, Drew, and Violet were slowly walking to the Pokémon Center. The sky was still its light blue. The grass near them was light green with beautiful flowers of multiple colors.

"So how long have you been friends with each other?" Violet asked.

"Never!" May answered loudly the second Violet finished speaking, "Drew is never and will never be my friend!

Drew heard what May said and pretended not to hear anything.

"Then why are you traveling with him?" Violet asked wanting to know what May would say.

"Um... well... um...," May paused looking at Drew who pretended to look somewhere else. May then turned back to Violet, "Well, because he wanted me to."

"Riiiiiighttttttt," Violet said. She had a feeling May was lying but decided not to say anything else. Violet turned to a point where she saw a red helicopter pass by and headed to Amberhive's volcano.

"What's that?" Violet asked pointing to the helicopter. May and Drew turned their attention to Violet and then saw the helicopter still approaching the volcano.

"What is it?" May said staring at it. It started to come down slowly. May, Drew, and Violet ran and saw it land on the ground. They stopped when it landed. A group of people came out of the helicopter. All dressed in red and gray, the group of members started talking. May, Drew, and Violet hid behind a green bush connected with other bushes.

"Who are they?" Violet asked in a quiet voice. They didn't want the people to spot them.

"They're Team Magma," May whispered, "They're bad people who want to expand the land."

"So why are they here?" Violet asked. She seemed so clueless about Team Magma. On the count that she never saw them ever.

"I don't know," May replied.

"Well they always want something," Drew said, "So they came here for something."

"Like what Mr. Know-it-all?" May glared at Drew. Drew just rolled his eyes.

"Well we should get help," Violet said and tried to get up but May pulled her back down.

"No we have to stop them ourselves," May explained.

"What?" Drew and Violet said in shock.

"And how are we suppose to do that?" Drew asked in a confused tone.

"Um... ," May started to think of a way or plan to stop them, "I guess I'm not sure."

Drew and Violet sighed. Then one of the Magma members turned around and quickly spotted May, Drew, and Violet before they can even hide.

"Intruders!" said the Magma member with red hair which turned everyone's attention to May, Drew, and Violet.

"Oh no," May and Violet panicked and became scared. Drew just looked at them annoyed.

One of the female members came closer to them. "Who are you?"

"Well you don't need to know," May answered, "What do you people want from here?"

"That is none of your business," said other member.

May and Violet panicked and tried hiding behind Drew, thinking that Team Magma would do something to them.

"Take Drew, not us," May said pushing Drew hard that she made him fall on the ground.

"Watch it May," Drew call to her while he tried to get up..

"I'll handle this problem," said the Magma member with the red hair, "Mightyena, lets go!"

"Rawr!" it said gritting it's teeth. May and Violet were scared but then decided to battle them.

"Beautifly, come on out," May cried letting Beautifly out of its Pokeball.

"Beautifly," it said. But then got a little scared when Mightyena glared at it.

"Flygon, use Hyper Beam," Drew ordered as he released the green and red dragon and it released a strong beam at Team Magma which caused an explosion.

"Hey I was going to attack them Drew," May said furiously.
Drew just flicked his hair and looked at May, "Well then I guess you're slow."

"Mightyena, use Shadow Ball," the Magma member ordered and Mightyena followed her orders and released a purple and black ball and it made a direct hit on Flygon crashing on to Drew and causing them to fall on the ground.

"Drew!" May gasped and ran to him, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah," Drew said while rubbing his head.
Violet smiled at them and then turned to Team Magma watching them and standing still.

"You guys should leave," she insisted but also knew that they wouldn't listen.

"What makes you think we'll obey your orders?" said other Magma member with short blonde hair. He was about to release one of his Pokémon until Violet released her Pokémon.

"Sableye, use Night Shade on Team Magma," she threw the Pokeball and a purple Pokémon came out. It placed its hands together and a purple and black ball formed in between them. IT released it and it Team Magma causing an explosion.

"Those kids are crazy," said one of the male members and they all ran away, "Watch, you'll all pay."

And they were gone. May and Drew stood there watching them leave. Violet sighed and came to them, "You ok Drew?"

"Yeah I guess," Drew responded.

"Wow Violet, your Sableye is awesome," May stared with delight at the small thing. It looked weird to her but she loved its attack.

"Thanks May," Violet said, feeling pleased for the compliment, "Well, we should all be heading now for the contests. You know, that is if you want ribbons to win."

"You're right," May confirmed, "So we'll see you around sometimes."

"Yeah i guess. And maybe Clover won't be there."

"He he... what joy," May showed a smile to Violet be polite but she knew that May didn't want to see Clover ever again.

"Bye you guys," Violet said and disappeared along with Sableye.

"So where do we go now?" May asked turning to Drew.

He took out the map Violet gave them and took a glance. "Brownbridge Town is the first contest."

"Alright! Now I'll be able to get into the Grand Festival!" May shouted and ran ahead.

"Girls..." Drew rolled his eyes and followed May back onto the road.
