MiharuOftheWhiteSea - Well, maybe one day you'll get better!

Leodasdragon - I LOVE CANDY! :D And yeah, it probably would hurt to get stabbed by a knife. A lot. I wonder how Lucia dealt with it.

Lucia: Never underestimate a Griffin.

Gwyn: Anyways, let's get onto the story. Gemstone Gal doesn't own pokemon.

Ivy: Enjoy the EXTRA LONG chapter!


Chapter 7 - The Much Awaited 1-day Internship!

It had already been about a month after Keir's birthday. November had passed, and winter was approaching. Today was the 3rd of December. Ivy, the second oldest, was turning 15. There was a snow storm approaching, and snow would take over the land, Blair and oddly enough, Gwyn's ideal weather. Lucia had told her about her pink wings and that she knew about her wings.

"TODAY'S THE ONE-DAY INTERNSHIP!" Aura shouted, running around while hyper.

"Um...explanation please?" Blair asked,

"Aurora's a very...hyper girl at times." Lucia asnwered.

"Who're you callin' Aurora?" Aura gave Lucia a look that said if-you-say-that-one-more-time-I-cannot-guarantee-you'll-live. Lucia put her hands up as if to surrender.

"Okay, okay! I won't call you that again!" Lucia said.

"Good!" Aura said, smiling.

"So, where'd you get assigned?" Storm asked Blair and Blake.

"Vientown." The twins replied in unison.

"Cool! So did I!" Storm said. "Why don't we go there together?"

"Sure, why not?" Blake said, grinning. Blair nodded. She was walking, with Violet leading her. She then was flying, holding onto one of Violet's legs.

"Race ya!" She said, zooming ahead.

"No fair!" Blake said, running after her. Storm ran after them, catching up surprisingly easily.


"Well, we're in Vientown now!" Storm said. "Let's go to the ranger base!" He ran inside. The twins walked up to the base, and the glass automatic doors opened. They looked inside, and the sight surprised them.

The base was empty.

"What the-?" Blair started.

"Ah! Sorry about that!" A woman said. She was at the corner of the room. "You must be here for the internship."

"Yes, we are." Blake said. "Where is everyone?"

"Oh it's terrible!" She said. "It's a big mission and...Oh I can't bear to say it!"

"Must be big." Blair said in a monotone voice.

"Oh very, the biggest since Operation Brighton." The woman replied.

"Is there anything we can do to help?" Storm asked.

"Yes, they said that when you came here, to bring this parcel to them, there's a note on top for you to read, too." She said. The trio nodded and Blair took the parcel. The note read:

Dear Ranger Students,

I'm sorry we never got to greet you properly, but the entire base had to leave for a mission, which I'm sure our operator, Alexia, has told you about. This package contains a very important item vital to the success to this mission. We will be waiting for you at Breeze Hill. The fate of all of Almia now rests in your hands.

Vientown base leader,

Barlow

TIP: Do not roll the parcel on it's side, and don't ever drop or shake it!

"Hey, I'll hold it." Storm said.

"No." Blair said.

"Why?" Storm asked.

"Because yo-" Blair paused. Then grinned. "Sure, you can take it." She handed him the parcel.


Storm's POV:

"Well, we're here." Blair said. There was chatter, and it didn't sound like anyone were saving the world, or anything like that.

"What now?" I asked.

There were four people, two males and two females. The first guy had an afro, was kinda tall, and had Budew with him. The other was burly and his partner, a Makuhita, was also strong looking. One of the girls had black hair and a Buneary that was jumping around everywhere. Literally. Lastly, there was another woman who looked like a tomboy and was fiddling with some tools, a Magnemite floating next to her. They were all sitting on a red and white checkered blanket, which was carefully laid on the ground. It happened to be a nice day, almost as if it was Spring again.

"Uh...make our presence known?" Blake suggested. I stepped forward.

"Hellonicetomeetya!" I said nervously, resulting in my words being stuck together.

"What he means is 'Hello, nice to meet ya!'" Blair said. "I'm Blair, that's my twin Blake, and he's Storm."

"We used to have two rangers just like you! They're top rangers now, though." The burly guy said.

"Hey Squirt! Mini!" The ranger with an afro said.

"WHO'RE YOU CALLING MINI?" Blair exploded. Well, not literally, I mean temper wise.

"Yes, yes I did, Mini." That made Blair even angrier. She ordered Eve to chase him while using Shadow Ball. The burly man took the parcel from me.

"You didn't drop it or anything, did you?" He asked.

"I almost dropped it once..." I said. "But that's it."

"Good." He said. "Lunch is here!"

"WHAT?" I yelled.

"Yeah, that's why I let you hold the parcel." Blair said. "My older brother is a bit of a prankster."

"I don't think 'a bit' works." Blake said, making air quotes.

"You knew?!" I asked, surprised. The twins nodded. I glared. At ALL of them.

"Hey! What's up with the cold look? It was Crawfords' idea!" He said.

"Wh-what? B-but you went on about how it was such a wonderful idea it was, Barlow!" The guy with the afro said.

"You two!" The girl with the Magnemite said. "We haven't even introduced ourselves!"

"Oh yeah! Well, I'm Barlow, and this is my partner Punch."

"I'm Crawford. Vientown base's prankster! This is my partner, Buddy!(Very common name for his partner.)"

"A prankster?" I raised an eyebrow. "Aura and Keir would love to hear some ideas."

"I'm Luana! This is Naomi!"

"Lastly, I'm Elaine. As you can probably tell, I'm an Operator." The tomboy said. "Only special operators get to have partners, and I'm one of them. This is Bolt, my partner."

"Sorry about the prank. It became a tradition, due to us doing it so many times." said Barlow. "But enough of the chit-chat, lets eat!"


No one's POV:

"And that is why you never, ever, ever anger a wild Cascoon or Silcoon." Crawford said, finishing his story about when a pack of Cascoon and Silcoon chased him, using harden, and their spike things EXTRA sharp.

"You mean, that's why my older brother is an idiot." Blair said, eating a slice of blueberry pie.

"Any other stories?" Elaine asked.

"Well, there was this one time when Mom got a life-sized(Not very big) Eevee and Dratini plushie for Blair, and Crawford was an idiot and tried to capture them." Blake said.

"That's because Lunatic said it was real!" Crawford said, defending himself.

"Don't you know that Lu likes to play around with you? Even though you're older?" Blair asked, using one of the nicknames for one of her other older brothers.

"Lunatic's weird." Blake said. "That's why we call him Lunatic."

"Um, excuse me rangers..." A voice said. Everyone looked up and saw a girl with two Blissey and a Chansey.

"Mimi!" Luana said, smiling. "What's up?"

"Mimi's Happeny ran off. She was next to Mimi, but then she was gone. Blissey and Chansey didn't see her. Mimi is worried. Can you help Mimi find Happiny?" The girl, Mimi, asked.

"Of course!" Barlow said. "We'll find your pokemon!"

"Thank you!" Mimi said, smiling. She sat down next to Elaine. "Mimi'll stay with Elaine for now!"

"Hm...how about the rookies join us?" Barlow said.

"HECK YEAH!" Storm shouted. "I mean, yeah!" Everyone laughed.

"We're game." The twins said.

"Enthusiastic, I see." said Barlow. "Okay then, I'll take Storm, and we'll search through Vientown and Chicole Village. Crawford, you take the twins and scour the Marine Cave."

"I'm not sure this will end well..." Crawford said, looking at his younger siblings. "But whatever."

"Report back to Luana and Elaine if you find something." Barlow added.

"Right!" The rangers, and students, said, right before the rangers did their signature ranger pose.


Me: I could say that this is long for the long wait or reviews, but in reality is that it's because it just turned out like this. :P

Aura: And watch as your next chapter is short as hell!

Gwyn: But...hell is...big... :/

Aura: I meant figuratively.

Gwyn: Oh, okay! :3

FUN FACT: This is probably the longest chapter I have ever written. Oh, that and that holiday vacation is coming up for me soon, so when it does come around, I'll make sure to type up at least a chapter for you. It begins when the world 'ends'. ._.

QUESTION OF THE CHAPTER: Do you think the world is going to end on December 21?

Ivy: I hope not, because then our story will be left unwritten.

Axel: And I won't get that many appearances.

Me: You're pretty much in all the Author's Notes when you don't appear, though...

Axel: Oh yeah!

Me: Before this ends, I need to say something.

Everyone else: What?

Me: That instead of one partner pokemon at a time, it can be up to three. Why? Because of...something in the future.

Ivy: Okay then...

Blair and Blake: Hope you guys enjoyed! See you next time! :3

Storm: Bye! And don't forget to review!
