The sun had already started to leave its highest point, as Charmander, Snivy, Cyndaquil and Totodile got ready to accomplish their first mission. The two Houndour growled loudly, one of them roared :"Dark Pulse", unleashing a wave of dark energy towards Cyndaquil. "Quick Attack! " The little Mouse Pokémon yelled, as she charged at the attack, her speed increased, but just before the attack got to close she dodged it by jumping aside, then she hit the attacker face forward. Cyndaquil retreated as quickly as she had attacked. A big bruise on the face of the Dog Pokémon started to appear.
"Flamethrower!" his partner said, as he exhaled a cloud of Flames and Embers, which was destined to hit Snivy. The grass type jumped through the air, dodging the doom, and then her body started to spin as she closed in on the attacker. "Slam" she screamed as her whole body crashed into Houndour, who was just too stunned by the sight of the jumping Pokémon. He was knocked of his feet as the blow struck him. "It´s payback time! " Snivy sneered. "Vine whip she said, extending her vines to the knocked over Fire type, and raising him into the air. "Water gun!" Totodile said, as beam of water shot out of his mouth, hitting the helpless Houndour. Snivy tossed him against the wall… He wasn´t going to get up any time soon.
"Dark Pulse "the other one muttered, trying to avoid the fate of this revenge. Charmander jumped into the air, and then he yelled: "Dragonbreath!" what looked like a Flamethrower was in fact an inferno of blue Flames. Houndour tried dodging the rather unexpected attack, but he was a little too slow as it struck his hind legs. Cyndaquil looked stunned at the unusual sight of blue Flames. He stud there, dizzy, ready to fall. "Defeat hurts, doesn´t it? " Snivy said, grinning at him. "Swift!" Cyndaquil shouted, as a swarm of yellow stars flew away from his mouth, the dog Pokémon really didn´t do anything to dodge it, as he knew he wasn´t going to take down the four of them. He fell right over. "Ahh sweet revenge! " Snivy smiled. Charmander walked inside of the cave. Even though all these fights were around, this hidden garden was still alive. The berries were fresh and ready to pluck. Cyndaquil looked around, as she remembered the peace here. . Totodile could shut his mouth as the extraordinariness of this place caught his eyes. After a few moments of memories, the four Pokémon walked outside.
"Now what?" Charmander wondered. "We have to bring them back to Base. It´s enough if we drag them back. " The blue crocodile explained, before he reached into a little back and taking out a pair of seeds and slowly shoving it into the criminals mouths. "These two will sleep like babies. "He explained, then he grabbed ones paw and started to drag him town the volcano. Charmander grabbed the other one, as the rescuers started their trip back. "The sun had slowly started to approach the mountain row in the distance, ready to call this day a day. After a few minutes the fur Pokémon had reached the bottom of the valley and they moved towards the hole, leading them back to safety. Cyndaquil looked at Charmander from behind as the moment of his blue fire was still stuck in her head, she was even more fascinated by him, and then she already was. Soon they approached the hole leading underground. Totodile just pushed "his "Houndour into the hole. A loud thud was heard… Charmander repeated the process, and then he started climbing back down the ladder, into the hallway 10. Cyndaquil, Totodile and Snivy followed. An Arrow pointed to the right, leading them back to lupus.
And so the long and boring travel through the long corridor started again. Charmander grinned widely, as he knew how important it was going to be to make this first mission work, still the dog Pokémon he was dragging started to feel a little heavier, but Charmander could still go on with it. As the walk continued, everyone started to think about today events. Eventually they passed two stair cases. "Why don´t we always come back here to stock up on berries, I mean they´re free…" Totodile thought out loud. "We could even sell them. Snivy added. "But what if some lost Pokémon like ourselves come by? They wouldn´t find any shelter if we were to take it for our own good. "Cyndaquil said, looking at Charmander. " We got by without using any healing items anyway, so I´m pretty sure we won´t any surplus. "Her lizard friend explained. The light coming in through the top slowly lost its brightness, indicating the end of the day. Snivy looked at Totodile as; he was walking in front of her, with the other dark Pokémon in tow. Those red scales on his back looked interesting. Time passed as they passed two more exits to the surface.
Soon the end of the hallway, which was dark by now, was within sight, the door that had started everything… Charmander arm was hurting pretty badly by now. Cyndaquil opened the door leading into the familiar, confusing, but also boring part of the guild. And just like this morning, Ninetails was waiting there, almost, as if she hadn´t moved. Snivy had closed the door as Charmander and Totodile presented their "prey". "Impressive." Ninetails commentated, "you must be used to this... "She wondered, looking at them. " We do have a little practice" Charmander answered.
From the staircase, which led to the middle floor, a big hovering Pokémon emerged. "I will take these prisoners, I am Magnezone and I bring them to justice" The weird little robot said in a very mechanic voice." This is the reward, the client has given us" Ninetails said, handing Charmander a bag which was rather big but it didn´t seem to have a lot of content. "2000 Poké and 8 Sitrusberries." The fox Pokémon explained. "Well then I guess a quarter for each of us Totodile "calculated. Charmander gave him two yellow berries and 500 poke. The crocodile left in a hurry after getting the goods.
Then a familiar face appeared. Infernape had come down from the upper floor as well, with some sort of paper in his hands. His head was burning very brightly. Ninetails scanned the text. "We´ll have a meeting in the dining hall immediately." The master of the guild said. That message must have worried her big time. "What´s wrong "Cyndaquil wondered, as she followed Charmander and Snivy upstairs.
