September 3rd (Sunyshore City, Sinnoh)

(May's POV)

Great, just great. Nothing like getting caught by the bad guy and getting tied up with String Shot. Oh well, better check to see if everyone's okay.

"Flint and Volkner are you okay?" I asked.

"We're fine, can't say the same for those guy. They got a huge whiff of Poison Gas and they're knocked out," Flint reported.

"Don't worry, I've got everything under control," I said reassuringly.

I started struggling to get my hand in one of my side pockets. After succeeding, I reached my laser lipstick and cut the String Shot binds. I then used it to cut the ropes of Flint and Volkner.

"We need to get out of here and get these boys to a hospital," Flint said concerned.

I started cutting the boys ropes, "Don't worry, I have some pokeblock that helps with poison attacks."

Flint and Volkner looked at me surprised, "Who taught you how to do that?" they asked.

"I learned from Nurse Joy and a few other people," I said as I finished cutting off grasshead's ropes.

I gently shook the boys awake and handed them a piece of Pokeblock, "Eat it, it'll help fight against the poison."

The boys ate it and color started coming back into their faces.

"How did you find us?" Ash asked while standing up.

"I listened to you guys being captured over the earbud communicator I gave you and then came up through the sewer because there were fewer grunts down there. Then I got captured by Jupiter and was brought here," I explained.

Drew, Gary, and Paul looked confused, "What earbud communicator?" Gary asked.

I pulled out the one in my ear, "One similar to this that I gave to Ash before you got in here."

I put the earbud communicator back into my ear and started to look around the room to figure a way out. I saw no other ways out except for the door. I quickly put my head against it to hear if any grunts were near.

"What the heck are you doin' airhead?" Drew asked.

I turned to look at him with an annoyed look on my face, "I'm listening to see if any grunts are posted outside the door."

"Were there any?" Ash asked.

I turned to look at Ash and shook my head, "Not that I could hear, so now we can come up with a strategy," I decided. "We'll all find Jupiter since she has our pokemon. After that, you, Gary and Volkner go to the main control panel and turn the power back on while Flint, Paul, Drew, and I stop Jupiter and Team Galactic."

Drew had an annoyed look on his face, "Who made you in charge?"

I gave him a smirk, "Since I'm the one that saved your sorry butt."

"Fine, but how are we going to get out of here oh smart one?" he asked sarcastically.

My smirk grew, "Just leave it to me."

I reached to get my laser lipstick and started making a perforation of a square by the door. I then reached into my pocket and pulled out my hidden pokeball.

"Blaziken, use Fire Punch."

"Blaze," he roared as he used Fire Punch to knock out the square.

A few seconds later, I heard footsteps running down the hallway.

"Blaziken, you know what to do," I said calmly.

Blaziken nodded and ran to intercept the grunts in the hall. He then launched a bunch of fire type attacks to make the grunts run in retreat.

"How are we supposed to find Jupiter?" Gary asked.

"I'm gonna make the hunch that she is at the observation deck where the control panel is," I theorized. "Volkner, can you lead the way?"

"Yea," he said as he started running. "Follow me."

We ran after him with Blaziken attacking grunts and pokemon that were in the way. We finally made it to the generator room after Blaziken kicked the door down.

Jupiter looked at me surprised, "How did you escape?!" she asked in shock.

I smirked while taking a fighting stance, "You really think that tying me up is going to keep me down. Blaziken, go for it!" I yelled as I made my way into the fray starting to throw, punch, and kick grunts.

Then I noticed I was fighting alone because the guys were just staring at me, "Guys!" I yelled. "Get your pokemon and go!"

They snapped out of it and found their pokemon. Ash, Gary, and Volkner then made their way to the controls with Pikachu, Electivire, and Luxray and started commanding thunderbolts to charge the controls. Meanwhile, Flint, Paul, and Drew started battling a bunch of Golbat with Infernape, Torterra, and Absol.

While fighting the few remaining grunts, I grabbed my pokemon and poketch. I then turned to see that Jupiter was trying to sneak her way out the door.

"I don't think so!" I yelled, "Beautifly, use String Shot!"

"Beautifly," she yelled as she launched her String Shot to tie up Jupiter.

"Thank you Beautifly, you too Blaziken, return," I called as I returned them. I then made my way to the main controls with Flint, Paul, and Drew.

"We don't have enough power to jumpstart the generator," Volkner said concerned.

I had a thoughtful look on my face and then called Max, "Hey Max, does my poketch have enough power to help start the generator for the tower?"

"I think so," he said. "Just connect your poketch to the main controls while the electric pokemon unleash their attacks."

I nodded in understanding as I connected my poketch to the main control using a nearby cable, "Go for it," I called to the guys.

"Pikachu use Thunderbolt, Electivire use Thunder, Luxray use Thunderbolt," Ash, Gary, and Volkner said simultaneously.

With the combination of power, we were able to get enough power to start the generator. Volkner then took control and set everything back to normal. After seeing that everything was set, the nine of us headed outside to meet up with Lance and Officer Jenny.

"Thanks for the help everyone," Officer Jenny said gratefully.

I smiled at her, "I'm glad I was able to help," I said before turning to Lance. "You might want to have your agents receive medical attention; they got a huge whiff of Poison Gas."

I turned my attention to my poketch only to discover that it died since it used up all its power to help turn on the generator, great.

While I checked my poketch, Nurse Joy came and checked the boys out asking how they survived the Poison Gas.

I turned around to answer her question, "I gave them some Pokeblock that I made with Pecha Berries, Salveyo Weed, Remeyo Weed, and Heal Powder."

The guys just stared at me, "Am I an alien or something because I swear this is the fourth time you've stared at me today," I said annoyed.

They snapped out of their gaze, "Where are you going now May?" Ash asked.

"To the airport and get a flight home."

"We can give you a ride, it's the least we can do after helping us out," Ash said while smiling.

I then turned to face Lance and gave him a face asking for a look of approval.

"Fine," he said as he started walking away to the airport with Paul, Gary, and Drew following.

I followed them with Ash and we soon found ourselves on their jet taking off.

"Where are we taking you?" Lance asked.

"You can drop me off at Lilycove City."

I then noticed Ash kept staring at me like he was inspecting something.

"Ash?" I asked kindly. "Can you please stop staring, it's a little uncomfortable."

"Sorry May, I feel like I've seen you before on a magazine or something."

I then noticed a Pokemon Coordinating magazine with a story about me lying on a table in front of me.

I tossed him the magazine, "I think this will answer your question."

He caught it and looked at it curiously before making the connection with a smile on his face.

"You're May Maple, four timing Top Coordinator," he said excitedly making everyone's heads turn to me.

"That's me," I said with a smile.

"Wait, so you're a four timing Top Coordinator and a teen hero?" Gary asked surprised.

I shrugged at him, "Pretty much. It takes a lot of bouncing around, but I am able to do both."

"I don't see how, seems too much for a klutz to handle" Drew said as he walked up to me with a smirk while flicking his fringe.

I was starting to lose my temper, what is with this guy.

I stood up, "Excuse me, I don't see how I'm a klutz if I can save your sorry butt at least twice," I said angrily.

He smirked and was about to flick his fringe again when I lost it. I flicked his hand from his hair, pulled his arm straight out, and flipped him over my waist causing him to fall flat on his back. Gary and Ash stared in shock with their mouths open. Even Paul had a shocked look on his face before whispering "idiot". Then Gary and Ash just burst out laughing and couldn't stop.

"Dude," Gary laughed. "You just got flipped by a girl."

I sat back down satisfied while Drew just lay there with a shocked look on his face. He finally snapped out of it and walked back to his seat silently as Gary and Ash finally calmed down, "How did you do that?" Gary asked.

I shrugged, "I know some martial arts and this arrogant jerk was starting to tick me off."

"Lance, we are over Lilycove City and will be landing shortly," the pilot announced.

"You don't have to do that, just drop me off here," I said as I grabbed a parachute and helmet with goggles.

The guys just stared at me, "What are you doing?" Paul asked gruffly.

"No need to go to the airport, I'll just jump out," I said simply while walking to the side door.

The guys looked at me like I was crazy, "Are you nuts!" Ash yelled.

"Relax, I do this all the time," I said with a smile. "See ya later."

I did a two finger salute, opened the side door, and jumped out.

(Back on the plane)

The guys just stared in shock while Lance got up and shut the door to prevent more things from flying around and out the door.

"Smart alack," he huffed and walked back to his seat.

The guys got over their shock, "That is some chick," Gary said in awe.

"I'll say, she got ya good Drew," Ash teased.

Drew blushed, "Shut up Ash," he said crossly.

Paul smirked, "You like her, don't you?"

Drew blushed even more, "Shut Up!" he yelled and started to read a magazine.

The other guys looked at each other and shook their heads with sly grins at Drew's denial.

(May's POV)

I finally drew close to my target and pulled the chute. After landing next to Lilycove High, I made my way inside toward the principal's office. I entered the main office to find a secretary at a desk in front.

"Can I help you?" she asked politely.

I smiled, "Is Mr. Stone here, I need to talk to him?"

The secretary smiled back, "He's available, his office is behind my desk down the left hall," she said while pointing where to go.

"Thank you," I said with a smile and walked toward his office.

I knocked at the door and heard him say "enter".

I walked in and shut the door, "Ah Miss Maple, what brings down to Lilycove High today?" he asked.

"I wanted to talk to you about me attending here," I said. "I still want to come here, but I was wondering if I could be here as a different person."

He looked puzzled, "Why do you want to that?"

"I was thinking about how being a four timing Top Coordinator and a teen hero would cause a lot of attention on me and I want to try to attend here as a normal student," I explained.

"Hmmm," he said before smiling. "I think we can make an exception."

I silently sighed in relief, "Thanks, also can I move in tomorrow so that I can get used to the school before everyone else arrives?"

"That's fine with me. Just stop by the office in your disguise and we'll give you your stuff for school," he said.

I smiled, "Thanks very much, I'll see you tomorrow," I said as I walked toward the door.

I left the school and made my way to the Pokemon Center where I called Max on the video phone since my poketch was dead.

"Hey Max, can you send me Kirlia so I can teleport myself home?" I asked.

"Sure May, I'll see you in a bit," he said and ended the call.

I then walked to a pokemon swap machine and received Kirlia.

"Kirlia, can you use Teleport?" I asked.

He nodded and teleported me back to the Petalburg Pokemon Center.

"Thank you Kirlia, return," I said as I returned him to his pokeball.

"Hey May, how did the mission go?" Max asked as he came into the open area.

I handed him Kirlia's pokeball, "The mission went fine, I had to work with some of Lance's agents after saving them, and I flipped one of them after he made me lose my temper."

"Why did you flip one of them?"

"He wouldn't stop calling me an airhead and that I was klutzy," I said annoyed as I crossed my arms.

Max sweat-dropped, "Oh, your wig came an hour ago," he said. "It's in your room."

"Thanks Max," I said while taking off my poketch, "Can you fix this for me?"

"Sure May, I'll work on it right now," he said as he walked off to his room.

I then walked to mine change and start packing up my stuff. By the time I finished it was almost 10:00. I then changed for bed and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

September 4th (Petalburg City, Hoenn)

(May POV)

I woke up the next morning extremely excited for moving to Lilycove High. I changed and went down to the kitchen to help Nurse Joy with breakfast while grabbing some for myself. After I was done, I went to feed my pokemon as well as choose the ones that I would take with me to school. As I started to grab all my pokeballs and take them outside, Max stopped me in the hallway.

"Hey May, here's your poketch, I improved it so it should work a lot better now," Max said as he gave it to me.

"Thanks Max, can you do me another favor?" I asked while struggling to hold all my pokeballs.

"Sure May, whatcha need?" he asked.

I finally found my balance while putting a couple pokeballs in my pocket and then turned my attention back to him.

"Can you hack the Lilycove High student records and change my profile so that it says Linnea Maria Mason while also changing the history so it doesn't give too much away about me. Maybe say that I'm a coordinator that has competed in all the region's grand festivals but only got as far as the top 16 or something?" I asked. "Oh and can you print a copy too?"

"Sure May, I'll have it done before you leave tomorrow."

I gave a small frown feeling guilty, "Can you have it done in a little bit, I'm leaving for school in an hour."

Max had a sad look on his face, "You're leaving today, I thought you were leaving tomorrow."

"I'm sorry Max, but I wanted to move in today so I could check out the school before everyone else arrives," I explained.

Max then smirked, "You're right, it's best if you have an extra day to explore the school, maybe it'll help you from getting lost," he teased.

I frowned, "I only got lost once, can you stop teasing me about it?" I begged.

He smirked bigger, "Nope, see you later May. I'll work on your profile," he said as he left to go to his room.

I huffed in annoyance as I made my way outside. Annoying little geek, can't he leave me alone about that. I only got lost once, is that so much to give him a reason to tease me about it for life!

I finally made it outside and released my pokemon so I could feed them their breakfast. As they ate, I quickly went back inside to retrieve my Pokemon Egg before coming back outside and watch my pokemon. I received the egg from Nicolette and her family when I saved her family's farm from Team rocket a few weeks ago. They told me the egg that they gave me would be a good addition to my team and I couldn't wait for it to hatch. After snapping out of my thoughts, I focused my attention to my pokemon who were playing in the yard.

"Hey you guys, can you come here for a sec?" I asked.

My pokemon nodded and made their way to sit/stand/fly in front of me.

"I don't think I've told you this, but I have decided to go to school," I said happily.

My pokemon chirped in excitement as I continued, "The thing is though, I'm going as a different person. It's to protect my identity so I can go to school as a normal teen. I also need to be careful in choosing who to take to school with me due to being recognizable from being in contests constantly," I explained.

My pokemon nodded in understanding, "So please don't be upset if you aren't picked," I said gently.

My pokemon chirped in approval while nodding their heads.

"Good," I said happily with a smile. "For starters, Blaziken, you're coming so that you can continue to help me on missions. Although when I'm at school, you're gonna have to stay in your pokeball most of the time."

"Blaze," he said in understanding as he nodded his head.

"Okay, let's see…I want to bring my pokemon egg with me," I said thinking out loud. "Then I'll pick Swablu, Shinx, Skitty, and Glaceon."

Wartortle, Beautifly, Munchlax, and Bulbasaur looked a little sad, "Don't worry you guys, I may swap for you, but I need to be careful because I've used you in a lot of contests and seeing you might cause someone to recognize me," I told them kindly with a small smile.

They nodded in understanding as I returned everyone to their pokeballs. I then put the ones I wanted to bring with me in my pockets while I carried the others to put back in the storage room with my egg.

After I put my pokemon away, Max gave me a printed copy of my file to give to school. I then put on the wig, brown contacts, and a pair of black rounded rectangular glasses while checking to make sure everything I needed was packed. Clothes-check, portable electronic piano-check, guitar-check, printer and laptop-check, pokemon-check, and lastly files-check. Then I could buy bedding and such at a store in Lilycove City.

Max then gave me Kirlia so I could transport myself to school and to find out the information I would need along with where my dorm would be. Afterwards, I could have Kirlia teleport my stuff to the dorm.

"Bye Max," I said while giving him a hug.

"Bye May have fun," he said as he hugged me back.

I then saw Nurse Joy enter my room and she gave me a hug as well, "Good luck in school," she said. "Your parents would be proud of you."

"Thanks Nurse Joy," I said as I grabbed my purse with the files in it while releasing Kirlia.

"Kirlia please use Teleport," I commanded gently.

"Kirlia," he said with a grin and we teleported to the front of the school before recalling him, "Thank you Kirlia, return."

I walked into the school to the main office where I saw the secretary from yesterday.

"Is Mr. Stone in his office"? I asked her nicely as I walked up to her desk.

She turned to look up at me with a funny look, "Have I met you somewhere?"

I silently sighed in relief knowing that my disguise was working okay.

"No, I don't think so, I'm a new student here," I explained.

"Ah," she said with a smile. "Mr. Stone should be in his office, it's behind me down the left hall," she said while pointing.

I smiled, "Thank you," I said kindly and walked to his office.

I knocked on the door and heard an "enter".

"Hi Mr. Stone, I came to give you my school information," I said while handing him the folder.

"Thank you Miss Ma…," he started to say Maple but caught himself. "What name are you going by?"

"I'm going by the name Linnea Maria Mason, everything about my alias is in my profile," I explained.

"Okay," he said while digging into his desk. "Here is your dorm key and a map of the school. I'll take you to your dorm and allow you to settle in."

"Thank you very much," I said gratefully.

He starting standing up making his way toward the door, "Please follow me."

"Miriam, I'll be out for a few minutes, please hold my calls," he said as we made our way out of the office.

"Yes, Mr. Stone," she replied as he shut the door.

As we walked, he talked a little bit about the school and its history til we reached a nice looking building that had three floors.

"This is where the upper class students stay," he explained as we walked inside. "You will be staying on the top floor that's somewhat styled like an apartment. It has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a common room that is a combination of a living room and decent sized kitchen along with a balcony facing the coast."

We made it to the door and I used my dorm key to get inside. I walked in and was shocked, it was a really nice place and nicely sized as well.

"You're sharing the dorm with three other girls whose rooms are on the left and four guys whose rooms are on the right. Their things are still here because this is their dorm doing their whole time here for school," he explained.

"What are the names of the other students who live here?" I asked curiously.

"Their names are Misty, Leaf, Dawn, Paul, Gary, Ash, and Drew," he said.

Well, this is going to be a headache.

"Okay," I said once I calmed down. "When do I pick up my school schedule?"

"You can pick it up tomorrow when the other students arrive," he said while turning to leave. "I'll leave you so you can settle in and explore the school."

"Thanks so much for helping me," I said gratefully as he left.

I shut the door and slumped against it. How in the world am I going to hide myself from those guys, this is going to be hard.

I stood up straight and decided to look around the dorm. I went down the left hall to see two doors on either side. I opened up the right door to show a little short hall with a door on the left making that the bathroom I would have to share. A little further in were two beds, one on each side of the room with a nice big window in the middle.

The right side had a bunch of pink, I mean a lot of pink. The bed, pillows, and stuff on her desk were all pink. She had her bed raised about three feet off the ground and had a book shelve and dresser under it.

The other side was empty meaning that it was to be my side. I saw that the bed was the same height as the other and that the dresser and bookshelf were under the bed as well. The desk faced the wall at the foot of my bed and the closets were located around the corner of the bathroom, they were a bit small but still nicely sized.

"Kirlia, come on out," I said throwing his pokeball.

"Kirlia," he said as she came out.

"Can you teleport my stuff here from back at the pokemon center?" I asked.

"Kirlia," he said smiling and a moment later all my stuff came.

"Thank you Kirlia," I said while handing him his pokeball. "You can teleport yourself back to Max."

"Kirlia," he said while nodding to me and teleported back to Max.

I quickly put most of my stuff away. I put my clothes in the dresser and closet, my piano on my desk, my guitar next to it, and I left my printer on the floor for the time being. I was about to hide my mission outfit and gadgets in the desk when a large metal block thing that looked like a small file cabinet with no drawers covered by a red and white pokka dot clothe appeared next to my desk with a note on top.

Hey May,

This is a small school present for ya that I designed. If you press the top right corner, that dot will activate a number pad that will appear on the top left. You then punch in a code of your choosing that will make the fabric role up and a door to open. It's a safe like thing to put your mission outfit, gadgets, and other stuff in.

Hope you like it,

Max

I smiled at Max's thoughtfulness as I typed in the passcode deciding for it to be the date of my first mission (0-9-2-3-2-0-1-0). After I typed it in, the fabric rolled up and revealed a door. I quickly stuck my mission clothes and gadgets in there before shutting the door causing the fabric to roll back down.

I then placed my printer on top and stuck my laptop in the center desk drawer for the time being. I placed my egg on my bed gently, grabbed my purse, and left the school to find some things for the dorm. It didn't take long, about an hour. After I returned to the dorm, I put on red and white striped sheets, a red comforter with white pokka dots, and cute white round pillows on my bed. I saw that the time was 12:30 and decided to head back down to a farmer's market that I saw earlier to grab some lunch. I was a bit lonely so I decided to let out Glaceon to join me.

"Glaceon, come on out," I said while tossing her pokeball.

"Glace?" she said confused while looking at me puzzled.

I laughed, "Glaceon, it's me. Although at school here I'll be looking like this going by the name Linnea or Lin for short," I explained with a smile.

Glaceon then realized it was me, "Glace," she said happily with a smile.

I laughed again, "Come on Glaceon, let's go to the farmer's market to eat and find some berries so I can make Pokeblock, I guess I should also buy some pokemon food as well," I said with a smile.

We made our way to the farmer's market where I got a really good sandwich to eat for lunch. As soon as I finished my sandwich, I heard shouting.

"Stop, Thief!" a stout bearded man said while running after a guy who was carrying a bag of sorts.

"Glaceon use Ice Beam!" I shouted.

"Glace," she said and used Ice Beam to freeze the crook in place.

The store keeper came up panting and began to catch his breath, "Thanks...so much...for your...help," he panted gratefully.

I smiled, "No problem, I'm glad Glaceon and I were able to help."

"Glace," Glaceon said reciprocating my feelings.

Officer Jenny then came up, arrested the crook, and gave the stolen money back to the store keeper.

"Come on Glaceon," I called, "Let's go get some berries and pokemon food."

We started to walk away, but then the store keeper stopped us, "Wait!" he yelled. "Did you say you were looking for berries and pokemon food?"

I was confused, "Yes, why do you ask?" I asked puzzled.

He smiled, "My store sells berries and pokemon food; follow me," he said as he gestured me to follow me.

"Thanks very much," I said happily.

We reached his store that was about five minutes from the school. I was astounded by the variety of berries and pokemon food that he sold. I was even able to find certain herbs and powders I used when making Pokeblock and Poffins.

I went to the shop keeper to pay but he turned me down saying it was for free.

I had a surprised look on my face, "Are you sure?"

He had a smile on his face, "Please, you helped stop the guy that's been robbing me for weeks, it's the least I can do. Please stop by anytime Miss..," he started to say.

"Mason, Lin Mason," I said with a smile. "Thank you Mr. ….," I started saying.

He laughed, "Just call me Dave," he said with a smile.

I smiled back, "Thanks again Dave, have a good day," I said as I exited the store.

Glaceon and I then started heading back to the dorm with the berries and pokemon food. After reaching the dorm, I started making some Pokeblock and Poffins for the next few days. By the time I finished, it was 6:30 PM. To save myself a trip, I just ate some left over berries for supper.

After I finished eating, I fed my pokemon and walked to the balcony as they ate. The scene from the balcony was really pretty. You could see the coast from here and the sun was just starting to set. I cleaned up after my pokemon and decided to watch some TV to pass the time. After a few hours, I decided to go to bed and fell asleep instantly.

September 5th (Lilycove City, Hoenn)

The next morning I woke up around 9:00. I quickly showered and changed before feeding my pokemon and eat some berries for breakfast. As I was cleaning up, I started to hear voices from outside the building meaning students were starting to arrive.

I returned my pokemon except Skitty and made my way into my room to mess around with my laptop til I heard people talking and the door being unlocked.

"Yea, I hope Mr. Brownstone doesn't teach that class this year," I heard a girl say.

It turned quiet, "Has someone been in here?" another girl questioned.

I looked down at Skitty, "Looks like it's time to meet the roommates," I said to her as I headed to the door.
