Night ran quickly through the valleys and volcanoes in this wilderness, which was not a worry for Charmander, Cyndaquil and Snivy, at least not for now, as they were sleeping in the safety of the guild they joined. Soon it got morning and the darkness subsided. Their well earned rest was interrupted by a shattering and fearsome roar in the Hallway of the sleeping quarters: "Geeeeet uuuup." Toarkoal shouted in a very deep voice. Cyndaquil ignited her fire as she heard the unusual noise. "Whoa watch it!" Snivy said, as she dived away from the Flames. Charmander opened his blue eyes slowly; he was still feeling a bit sleepy. The grass type was standing there, panting after that surprise from Cyndaquil, who just yawned loudly, not paying attention to Snivy. The three Pokémon opened the door into the hallway.
It was a flood of Pokémon out there and all of them seemed to be heading for the rescue board. "Good Morning." A familiar blue crocodile said, grinning at the new members, as he could tell they were not used to any kind of routine like this. "Morning " Snivy said, looking at the pileup of creatures." We got to go to the bottom floor, because we already got our mission " Totodile said, while he led Charmander and Cyndaquil to the staircase. Some mean looks followed them. After a few stairs they arrived at the door filled floor.
Ninetails was waiting there and she actually grinned , as she spotted the new ones. " Well, looks like you are going at it with 100%" Ninetails said, as she was happy to have reliable members in her guild. Totodile had handed her the paper, which had the descriptions of the job. Cyndaquil looked around in amazement as the doors being side by side here started to confuse her. "Okay then, good luck " the Fox Pokémon said , making a mark on some sort of list , which apparently had all the members listed. " 10 and 5 " She added. " It means going into door 10 and exiting at 5 " Totodile explained quickly, as he was certain, that the beginners would not know.
With that explanation, Totodile led them into the door 10 , which was covering a very long and extend corridor…" This looks endless… " Snivy said , starring down the tunnel like path which was surprisingly straight . "And scary " Cyndaquil added , as there was hardly any light here . At least there were a few small holes in the ceiling , letting through the sun's rays. Charmander seemed puzzled about this part of the guild. The ground felt dusty and it was covered by a few smaller roots.
After what felt like forever they came to a little staircase with a 1 on it and an arrow pointing the way they had come. "Four more, you got to be kidding me …" Snivy concluded. "These systems lead us to our mission district, so we don´t have to wander too much on the surface level. " The water type explained." Sound safe " Cyndaquil commentated. "We got a few items with ourselves " Charmander explained , as he showed Totodile the bag , while they were walking. " Me too, but they can be expensive to buy in these parts. " The blue reptile explained.
After some more walking they passed two more exits to the top . Charmander was wondering , how long they had actually been on the move… But their patience paid off , as they had finally reached a ladder with a 5 painted on it. Snivy starred down the hallway, who cringed a bit , as he thought about , having to go even further down. Cyndaquil started to climb the three others followed her. Charmander looked at Cyndaquil, as he kind of noticed her being a little braver then usual, but it could have just been something random…
As the fire mouse climbed out of the hole which leads to the top , she looked around, it was the typical volcanic wasteland , but this particular place seemed familiar for some odd reason. "We´ve been here before " Charmander noticed , as he spotted a cave on the flank of a volcano. " The description says , that they are in some sort of cave so that must be it. " Totodile explained as he started marching towards the volcano . Cyndaquil was shivering a bit , as she remembered , what happened here last time. Charmander patted her head , as could see the hedgehog's worries . She grinned at him. " We´re not losing to the same ones twice in a row." Snivy said in an angry voice.
Then they started to climb up the volcano. Charmander turned around , looking back. He didn´t even notice the ladder the first time he was here. The sun had slowly risen into the center of the sky, like a gigantic spotlight. Soon they were in front of the entrance. " Let´s roll." Totodile said , before he wanted to walk into the cave , but he was stopped by a pounce of a dog Pokémon. "We took it, so this is our place " A second Houndour said as he came out of the new lair.
Without any warning Snivy attacked the Houndour , which had grounded Totodile . The fire and darkness Pokémon quickly jumped of him , giving the crocodile a chance to get up. " It´s time for a load of revenge " Snivy said , raising her nose into the air. The four rescuers were standing side by side , opposed to the two gangster Pokémon , just like in a scene from a western movie. It was a fight for justice , a fight for revenge , but also for glory. This battle would be the first of many challenges for Charmander, Cyndaquil and Snivy their new work would bring them, but as most of the time, they got ready to fight at all costs.
