A/N: Hello everyone! Just a quick author's note! The biweekly chapters will now be uploaded on Sunday rather than Saturday! Also, I will do my best from this point forward to bring the chapters back up to 2,000 words and over! Sorry if I let anyone down!
A/N: I don't own Pokemon!
- Back at Kellyn's bedroom –
'Phew…today was certainly a day. I'm glad that at least we were able to do that little makeshift mission, now the other students will be able to test their capturing skills on some Pokémon!' Kellyn thought as he changed into his pajamas and climbed into bed, soon falling asleep.
On Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Kellyn, Wendy, Marcus and Luana hanged out with one another and enjoyed themselves in Pueltown.
- Sunday morning –
Kellyn woke up around nine A.M. and did his usual getting ready for the day, making sure his shoes were tightly tied before exiting the dorm room. The young man knocked on Wendy's door, hoping she would possibly be available.
As expected, Wendy opened the door a couple of seconds later, a big grin on her face as she greeted Kellyn.
"Morning Kellyn, how're you?" Wendy asked as Kellyn smiled back.
"I'm doing good, thanks for letting me hang out with you guys over our days off!" Kellyn said as the two began walking.
"Of course, we were all glad to have you along!" Wendy said as they reached their first class and entered.
Sitting down, Kellyn noticed Keith wasn't there, though Luana was sitting in her usual seat and motioned for them to come over.
"Hi guys, good morning! Nice to see you!" Luana said as Wendy and Kellyn exchanged greetings with her.
Once all the students were in class, Mrs. April entered and started the lessons. After the class was finished, the trio left the classroom and soon came to their second classroom after talking along the way. Eventually, they entered the Field Moves classroom and seeing that their professor was there, they sat down and began their lessons.
Kellyn was taking down notes about what alternatives to seek if the Pokémon he needed wasn't around. Around that time though, there was a knock at the door, and the professor motioned for the person to enter. In a moment, Kellyn, Wendy and Luana were surprised to see Mr. Caplan was the person knocking, a worried look on his face.
"Hello Mr. Julian, can I speak with Kellyn, Wendy and Luana for a few moments?" Mr. Caplan asked.
"Of course, go right ahead!" Mr. Julian said as Kellyn, Luana and Wendy got up from their seats to their other professor.
Once the three of them headed out into the hallway and Mr. Caplan closed the door, they noticed Marcus was also there with a confused look on his face.
"Huh? Marcus, you're here too? What's going on?" Luana asked.
"No worries everyone, I'll clue you all in on what happened and why I called you out here." Mr. Caplan said as he looked around, and then, once he knew no one was around, began to explain himself.
- Late Saturday Evening –
Mr. Caplan was busy collecting all his documents as his last class finished up. Once the last student went through the door, he looked up and saw Mr. Kincaid enter. The man smelling of hair spray waved a hello to Mr. Caplan, and the instructor did the same in exchange.
"Hello Mr. Kincaid, good evening, how're you doing?" Mr. Caplan asked.
"Not bad Mr. Caplan…say, would you mind heading into my office for a second?" Mr. Kincaid asked as the instructor gave a puzzled look.
"Into your office? Erm, sure, not a problem!" Mr. Caplan said as he followed the interim principal.
The two made their way to another part of the building where Mr. Kincaid's office was, and the swirly, grim faced man unlocked the door. As Mr. Kincaid followed by Mr. Caplan entered, the latter male could smell the horrid scent of hair spray.
Mr. Kincaid closed the door and took a seat at his desk. motioning for Mr. Caplan to sit. Upon sitting down, the instructor felt uncomfortable, wondering what the whole situation was about in the first place.
"So Mr. Kincaid, what can I do for you?" Mr. Caplan asked as Mr. Kincaid sneered.
"You know what you're here for, don't you?" Mr. Kincaid said.
"I…really don't sir." Mr. Caplan said as the man facing him grew increasingly frustrated.
In one fell swoop, the principal tossed a handful of photos down onto the desk, and Mr. Caplan looked at them. Holding back a gasp, the professor observed some of the photos which showed him, Luana, Marcus, Kellyn and Wendy with various Pokémon, while the professor had his Kadabra out for quick teleportation.
"Mind telling me why you were with students in Pueltown capturing Pokémon?" Mr. Kincaid asked.
"I didn't realize giving some youngsters help with understanding of capturing various Pokémon was a problem." Mr. Caplan said as the principal slammed on the desk.
"The problem is that now we have Pokémon running around different parts of campus! I find it highly coincidental that last night you guys were photographed being in Pueltown, and today, I see a few Pokémon already wandering around!" Mr. Kincaid said as Mr. Caplan tried to calm himself.
"Well sir, nothing states that Pokémon being on campus aren't allowed. In fact, this semester is the only time there's been no Pokémon around the Ranger School at all!" Mr. Caplan said as Mr. Kincaid was the one who became surprised.
"While that is true…" Mr. Kincaid began, but Mr. Caplan cut him off.
"In fact, what was done was nothing wrong. Our students all need to know the best ways to operate as a Pokémon Ranger, and if they can't test it out on Pokémon often, they won't be able to get the skills they need." Mr. Caplan said as the principal tapped his two forefingers as he looked at the teacher.
"Hmmm, you do make a point. Still, I need to know the students who were with you in these photos." Mr. Kincaid said.
'This man certainly is off his rocker if he thinks I'll squeal on those students…even more so because they didn't do anything wrong.' Mr. Caplan thought.
"I don't know who they are." Mr. Caplan said as the principal clenched his teeth.
"So you helped them bring Pokémon into campus without knowing their identities. Is that right?" Mr. Kincaid asked.
"That's right." Mr. Caplan said.
"I could fire you, you know." Mr. Kincaid said.
"You'll fire me when I teach rock climbing to the students every semester, and when it's a new semester, help out the new students with their entrance exam? That doesn't make sense to me." Mr. Caplan said as the principal felt himself backed into a corner.
'He's smarter than he looks, maybe I underestimated him. I'll have to let him off, at least for now.' Mr. Kincaid thought as he gave a disinterested sigh.
"Alright then, you're off the hook, but if you're smart, you would watch your back. You may go now." Mr. Kincaid said as Mr. Caplan left the room.
As the teacher left the room, he breathed a huge sigh of relief as he wondered what to do.
'Drats, I'm not even concerned with Kincaid being on my case, but those kids have to be warned! If only it wasn't so late at night, they won't be on campus! I'll have to get a hold of them on Sunday morning as soon as I can!' Mr. Caplan thought.
- Back to the present day, Sunday morning -
"W-wow, I couldn't have been imagined your reaction when he showed those photos…" Wendy said.
"I kept my expression as stoic as possible, considering that the evidence was right there. But I did my best to stick up for you guys. Just watch out in case Kincaid tries to bring you guys into his office to talk. He's…unhinged." Mr. Caplan said.
'Someone saw us…and what does that mean for Mr. Caplan and us?' Kellyn thought as Marcus and the professor started to chat.
"You left your class? Won't you get in trouble for not sending them an email about class not being in session?" Marcus asked.
"Oh no, I had another teacher cover the class that's going on now, though I'll be there later in the day. I was concerned about you guys so I wanted to rush over as soon as I could!" Mr. Caplan said.
"Thank you for the warning professor, what should we do if Mr. Kincaid does have us come into his office?" Luana asked.
"I would say that you should explain that it wasn't you. After all, some of the photos I saw of the five of us were rather blurry. The ones that were clear did show me, Wendy, and Kellyn. However, the photos that clearly showed us didn't have my Kadabra or other Pokémon nearby, and even if they did, you guys didn't do anything wrong. Just try to play it cool if you can." Mr. Caplan said.
"Thank you Mr. Caplan, we'll do our best." Wendy said.
"Yeah, it's a little nerve-wracking to think that Mr. Kincaid will speak to us, especially because he doesn't give off good vibes at all, but I'm certain we'll be okay." Kellyn said as Mr. Caplan smiled.
"Good, take care guys, see you for the rock climbing session today, Kellyn!" Mr. Caplan said.
"Will do, thanks for everything!" Kellyn said as the professor waved and walked away.
