Okay, so… I couldn't find a pokemon ranger that was over confident and rude. So… yeah. Im gonna make one up. So, meet Tokiro. He works with Wintown and is very prideful. Originally he was working in Summerland, but was sent to wintown to see if Elita could fix his personality. Elita is currently on a mission somewhere else.


The first thing Solana felt was a slight pain of something sharp pressing against her skin under her legs. The second thing was the bright light that invaded her eyes as she tried to open them. Her hand went to her eyes as she tried to sit herself up on one side. She felt complete ache everywhere. She looked around to see herself in some kind of cave, a single morning sunray entering through a hole in the rock.

HUNN…

Her eyes widened and she turned to her side to see darkrai there, stand… er.. floating over her, with honchkrow perched right behind him.

D-Darkrai! Honchkrow! They only stared at her. Where am i? she asked out loud, looking around. She went back to them. Why did you bring me here?

Articuno was the only one to respond with a small "Arrrtiii…"

Realization struck her.

"You mean you made that entire storm just to kidnap me?" She asked it, not expecting a reply, but it wasn't the one to answer her this time.

"Yes."

Startled, Solana turned to the young voice, to see a little boy standing there behind articuno.

"Ive heard about you… you are Solana, right?"

"Y-yes…"

"oh good! Darkrai, Honchkrow, Articuno, thank you! You found her!" He hugs Articuno and smiles at the others. Solana stared at them, deeply confused by the situation.

"What?"

"Oh, sorry. My name is Kizune. I asked my pokemon to bring you to me… well, us."

"Us?" She questioned.

"Yes. You see, recently, there have been some really scary people coming around. Here, follow me."

The little boy began to skip, pausing to wait for her. With no reason not to, she began to follow him. They went through a tunnel, climbing up, when she began to see some kind of light.

"They took over Lyra forest and have been taking control over lots of pokemon. And so.. well…"

They reached the top of the cave, coming to a cliff, and an enormous open area.

….With hundreds of pokemon.

"We've been hiding here, in Krokka tunnel." When some of the pokemon noticed their friend had come back, they called out to him, racing to say hello with nuzzles and small hugs.

"This… is my Sanctuary."

The cavern was like an underground hidden world. Trees and vines covered the area, the sun brightly lighting the cave through the vines and holes above the cave. The cave was a good 200 feet wide and certainly at least 100 feet tall, the cliff they were standing on had to be at least 70 feet tall. There was a large open lake in the center, a cave river that pooled out. Hundreds of pokemon filled the area, bird pokemon chatting away with each other on the ceiling, electric pokemon playing with eachother, dark pokemon teasing other pokemon, snake pokemon sleeping, water pokemon racing, grass pokemon dancing, rock pokemon chatting, psychic pokemon , fire pokemon, fight pokemon, doing as they please. She had never seen so many pokemon in one place before.

"This…" Solana was overwhelmed by the sight. "This is incredible… how long have you been here?"

"For well… two, three weeks, I think."

She looked around, and suddenly noticed a large nest where several pokemon were being taken care of by Chansey and Blissey. They looked hurt.

"That's our little hospital. You see, at first, we tried to fight against them, but we weren't very strong. Jigglypuff likes to help out sometimes too, but its not there right now."

"Why didn't you get a poke-ranger to come help you? Why did you have to get me?"

Articuno and Kizune looked at each other before he replied.

"I tried. We went through Panula Cave, and up north road to Wintown, But they wouldn't listen to me."

"Why not? "

"Because he said im a kid and im making it up."

"Who?"

"T-tokiro…"

That explained a lot. Tokiro was a stuck up ranger, she didn't know why he was even considered one. He had originally become one when Solana herself first started out. He was a womanizer. When she had moved to fall city, she thought he would leave her alone. But nope. Hes still a ranger. And shes the only reason he is. On top of that, Elita wasnt there, shed have to contact Chris and Freddie about this... where were they when this happened?

"I see." She paused. "But still. A ranger is supposed to help everyone. He could've at least looked into it… So then why didn't you just come-."

"I got scared. He said if I came back he would have Raichu electrocute me!"

"That… stupid… idiot!" She half yelled, frustrated with him. He never seemed to learn.

"S…so I didn't want to get hurt, and I… I had heard about you from other people before this happened. So me'n Darkrai and Articuno made a plan. We thought you might help…"

She sighed, then looked at him straight in the eyes.

"I will, Kizune."

Suddenly the little boy began jumping up and down, twirling around his confused Articuno who just went with it as Darkrai and honchkrow glanced at each other for a moment.

"You see! You see! I told you she would help us! I told you! I told yoooou!"

"Well then. Are you ready?"

"Huh?" He stopped.

"Will you show me this place, where these people are?" He hugged Articuno.

"Only if articuno can come…"

"Of course it can." She smiled.

"Okay!" Kizune began to walk back in the way they came. Seeing he was leaving, lots of other pokemon, more than before, called out to him, as if they were saying goodbye. Solana waved her hand and a few Squirtle and Pikachu waved back. Pokemon were just so cute…

Just then, she hit her pockets. She realized, she didn't have her stylus on her.


A few hours earlier…

Lunick was lying on his couch, angry with himself. Why did it have to take so god-damn long to heal!

He sighed again, angry with himself. What was really frustrating was that stupid scene that kept repeating itself in his head.


Minun began to charge, still on Lunicks back, aiming right for Honchkrow. Seeing this, Darkrai used Hypnosis, confusing Minun, who fell to the ground, waltzing around dizzly. Plusle on the other hand was already ready.

"Go plusle!" Plusle was about to strike, when Articuno came right down infront of them, whacking Plusle off of Lunick.

"Plusle!" The injured pokemon tried to get up, but had cuts from Articunos claws when hit. Articuno, seeing a window, used fog to hide their escape. Lunick picked up Plusle, then ran over to Minun who was still currently dancing in circles. When Lunick touched it, it broke from its hypnosis, and climbed up onto Lunick, who was staring into the fog.

Solana was gone…


On top of that, he couldn't help but think of their experience the day before that as well. He had finally found out she liked him and then, SURPRISE! She gets kidnapped by pokemon! And what was worse, he couldn't even go looking for her until this stupid annoying cut healed!

In reality, his cut had healed mostly. But it would probably take another day before he could walk on it again. He had tried to earlier and it had opened up, angering him more.

Plusle was currently lightly crying, small sniffs could be heard, as Minun desperately tried to cheer it up. He pushed himself up on his elbows to look at them. Plusle looked up.

"Don't worry plusle. We'll find her." He then let himself fall back onto the couch.

He said that to plusle, but really, he was just reassuring himself. He then decided to give spenser a call.

"Hello?"

"Anything new?"

"sigh. Lunick, I said id call you."

"Well its been two hours."

"No. She wont pick up. She might be unconscious still."

With that, he hung up.

All he could think to himself was, (She'd better not be hurt, dammit.)


Sorry for the wait (i lost my draft!) and sorry for the short. I just got done with finals so ill finally be able to write again!
