Normal P.O.V
The sun began rising on the Nabiki Beach as Keiths' dad, Max, looked out to sea. It wasn't long until he spotted a large black submarine surfacing, the man smiled before he walked towards the water.
"Phantom," Max smirked as he looked at his long-time friend, Phantom smirked back to the man.
"Max, I heard you were searching for Summerlands' Gift," the man said, Max smirked at the man in front of him.
"That I am Max, I also heard you were searching for it, let's search together and rule the world side by side," Max replied, Phantom nodded his head.
"Yes, let's, but it may prove a little difficult, after all, Summerlands' Gift is a person," Phantom stated, Max looked at him in shock, all this time he had been searching for an item, but no, the Gift…..was a person and Max knew exactly where to start.
Kate sighed as she searched the Vien Forest just outside town, Glaceon by her side. She had woken up early, no one knew where she was, the sun hadn't even risen yet.
"I wonder if I'll get a strange feeling when I'm near it," she pondered as Glaceon began sniffing the ground; they had ventured deep into the forest, deeper than the forest fire.
As Kate walked something pink caught her eyes, the girl walked over to the source. A Gracidea Flower sat on a bush by itself, just one, no more, no less. Kate frowned as she dipped her hand to pick it up; her hand went through the bush.
"Glaceon, go in there, see what there is," Kate ordered, Glaceon nodded as she shuffled through the bushes. The pokemon took one look around before gasping and heading back out to Kate.
"You have to see this," Glaceon said, Kate nodded as she followed the pokemon into the bushes. When Kate looked around, she gasped, Gracidea Flowers covered the grounds everywhere, Shaymin ran around playing with one another and at the back of everything was a large building.
"The ancient library," Kate whispered as she began walking towards the building, the Shaymin cowered away from her, all but one, in its sky form.
"Who are you and what do you want?" the Shaymin asked in a rude voice, Kate placed her hands on her hips, not pleased with the pokemons' attitude.
"My name's Kate Jones, I'm a Pokemon Ranger, I want to find the Pokemon Legend and Tales of Old book, I want to find out where I came from," she stated, the Shaymin studied her for a minute then frowned.
"Are you…Summerlands' Gift?" he asked, Kate nodded her head, all the Shaymin then emerged before going into their sky form.
"We've done it, she's back, she'll save us," the Shaymin chorused, the one in front of Kate smiled at her.
"Follow me," he ordered, Kate did as told as she followed the Shaymin into the library. Kate gasped at the sight of the inside; it was huge, bigger than a normal library. Books stacked up high on shelves as papers lay around on the ground; posters of ancient pokemon decorated the walls as Shaymin led Kate into the deepest part of the library.
"The Legends and Tales of Old is what people have to find this library for, however, we will allow you to take the book, but keep it safe, in the wrong hands, it could bring the end of the world," the pokemon explained, Kate nodded her head as she watched the Shaymin grab an old brown book. The book was rather large with gold writing on the front, it was tattered and torn a little, but still in good condition.
Kate nodded her thanks to the Shaymin as they walked back out of the door; the Shaymin went into his normal form before climbing onto Kates' head.
"You don't think I'm letting you get out of here without a guardian do you?" he asked, Kate cocked a brow at the pokemon.
"What are you talking about?" she asked, even Glaceon gave a confused look at the pokemon.
"I mean, I'm the guardian of that book, wherever it goes, I go," Shaymin answered, Kate nodded her head.
"Alright, we'll be going to the Base now," she stated as she walked passed all the Shaymin, each of them either climbing on her, or dragging her around or giving her a Gracidea Flower.
By the time Kate emerged from the bushes again she had a bouquet of Gracidea flowers, the book was in a small bag that she brung, Shaymin sat on her head, while Glaceon walked at her feet.
The trio began to walk through the forest again, as they walked, pokemon stopped to stare at the Shaymin, but others just carried on with their day. Kate looked at the time, 10, how long had she been in there?
"Oh yeah, the ancient library's coated in a time force thingy, time passes quickly there, but here it's like five hours," the Shaymin explain, Kate nodded her head, she jumped when her styler began ringing.
"Kate, where in the name of Arceus are you?" Barlows' voice came from her styler, Kate sweat dropped.
"I'm in Vien Forest," she stated, Barlow was silent for a moment.
"Ok, meet Professor Hastings there and bring him to Base," Barlow ordered before ending the transmission.
"Grandpapa Hastings is coming here already?" Kate asked herself.
"Why yes I am Kate," Kate jumped at the voice behind her, turning she saw her grandpa Hastings and a blonde boy with green eyes, he wore the Ranger Uniform and had a cheeky smile on his face.
"JACKIE!" she yelled as she glomped the boy, the Shaymin on her head promptly falling to the ground.
"Hey little sis, how ya doing?" he asked, Kate smiled as she looked at him, a big grin spread across her face.
"I'm great, how are you two?" Kate asked as she hugged Hastings as well, both of them smiled at her.
"We're fine, let's get to Base, Barlow said he had something important to show me," Hastings stated, Kate nodded her head as the three of them began walking.
"So, what's with the Shaymin?" Jackie asked, Kate looked at him.
"I have this," she said as she pulled out the Legends and Tales of Old book, Hastings and Jackie looked at her in shock.
"How?" Jackie asked, Kate smiled.
"I have a friend who's a genius," she stated, the two nodded their heads.
"Speaking of friends, do you have a boyfriend yet? Or have you got your eyes on someone?" Jackie asked, Kate blushed a little at the thought, Glaceon snickered at her.
"Oh, go kiss Buizel," she said to the pokemon, who went red at the remark.
"So you do," Jackie stated as he saw Kates' red face and the comment she made to the snickering pokemon, "Who is it?" he asked, Kate sighed.
"You're both gonna kill me for this," she stated as she looked at them, "It's Keith," she answered, both the adults in front of her gave her a confused look, Kate sighed, "Keith Dazzle," she added, Jackie gasped as he looked at her.
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!" he yelled, Hastings nodded his head.
"Yes, I have to agree with your brother on this one Kate, you do seem a little crazy to be falling for him," Hastings added, Kate sighed.
"I know, but it's not my fault, he's different," Kate muttered, Jackie and Hastings looked at each other then the girl, "Let's just go," Kate said as she began walking towards the Base.
"Where the hell is Kate?" Crawford asked as he paced around the room, as if on cue, the doors opened to reveal Kate, Hastings and Jackie.
"Kate there you," Crawford stopped short when he saw the blond, Keith and Rythmi stopped their arguing to see what was going on, "JACKIE!" Crawford yelled as he hugged the boy, "IF I knew you were coming I would have set up a prank," Crawford stated, "Nice to see you grandpa," Crawford said as he hugged Hastings, everyone in the Base looked at them in confusion.
"Guys, this is Jackie, mine and Crawfords' final sibling, and this is Professor Hastings, our grandpapa," Kate smiled; Keith and Rythmi looked at the two.
"Hey, I know you," Keith stated, Jackie raised an eye brow.
"You do?" he asked, Keith nodded his head.
"Yeah, you're that guy who stopped Phantom from getting to the Sea Temple with Manaphy," Keith stated, Jackie nodded his head.
"That's me," he stated, Rythmi looked at Keith.
"Woah, so Keith knows something," she snickered, Keith glared at the girl.
"Don't start again," he said.
"Me?" Rythmi asked "You're the one who started it the first time," she stated, Keith glared at her.
"All I asked was if you had seen Kate," he stated, Rythmi glared back.
"Yeah and then you went into an argument with me about it."
"Yeah, because you had to make some romantic comment and stuff like that," Keith stated as he ran a hand through his hair in annoyance, Jackie looked at Kate with a confused look.
"Don't ask, they're always like it," she pointed out, just then Keiths' phone began ringing.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"That Kate girl, find out more about her," it was his father.
"Why would I do that?" Keith asked.
"Because Summerlands' Gift is a person according to Phantom," Ma replied, Keith froze.
"Hold up, you're telling me Phantom's in Almia as well?" Keith asked.
"That's right, now find out everything you can about Kate," Max ordered, Keith clenched a fist.
"Find it out yourself, I'm not doing any of your dirty work," Keith answered, there was a chuckle from the other line.
"Fine, be that way, but I can't guarantee the girls' safety," Max responded.
"You touch her and I'll kill you," Keith growled, at that everyone in the room turned to Keith, Kate gave him a worried look, while Jackie frowned at him, Rythmi and the rest just gave a confused look.
"So, you'd rather save a girls' life than rule the world? I can see who was the braver out of your brother and you," Max stated.
"My brother was a fucking murderer," Keith spat as he looked at everyone, he then walked out of the room, Kate frowned as Buizel looked at her in confusion, she shook her head before following him. Jackie grabbed her arm, holding her back, she turned to him, he shook his head.
"No, Kate, leave him," he said, Kate pulled away before going to the back rooms.
"You can do what the fuck you want to me, but leave Kate alone," she heard Keith say, the girl walked into their room to see him setting his phone down on the drawer.
"Keith?" she whispered, the boy turned to her, a small smile on his face.
"Sup?" he asked, Kate smiled a little.
"You ok?" she asked, Keith nodded his head.
"I'm fine, just my dad said the craziest thing," he started.
"What was it?" Kate asked as she looked at him in confusion.
"You're Summerlands' Gift," Keith stated, Kate flinched a little, "I told him he was crazy, besides even if you were, I wouldn't let him hurt you," he added, Kate smiled at him.
"Thanks, I guess," she answered as she walked towards him, "You sure you're ok?" she asked, "You freaked when he mentioned your brother," she stated, Keith shrugged.
"Wouldn't you?" he asked, Kate smiled, then frowned, deep in thought.
"I guess I would if my brother was a murderer," she stated, Keith nodded his head.
"C'mon, we should head back out there," Kate stated, Keith sighed before following her out the room.
"Hey Kate?" he asked before the two entered the reception.
"Yeah?" she asked, Keith smiled at her.
"Thanks, for being there, ya know," he answered, Kate nodded her head.
"Sure no problem," she smiled as they walked into the room.
"CRAWFORD GIMME THAT!" Luana yelled as Crawford ran around with a black lacy bra.
"Looks like I'm not the only pervert in the Base," Keith sweat dropped, Kate shook her head while Jackie grabbed Luanas' bra.
"Thank you," Luana smiled as she walked back to her room, "You're brother is a dick head," she hissed to Kate, who shrugged.
"Live with the guy," she answered as she walked over to Rythmi, who was writing some stuff down, Jackie walked over to Keith, before he began circling him.
"Jackie don't, you'll scare the boy, he's already listened to dads' yelling about twenty times about not being allowed to touch or fuck me," Kate stated as she looked through some files.
"Yes, he shouldn't be," Jackie answered, "You like my sister?" he asked, Keith blushed a little.
"He's already gone over this with me, he has the hots for her," Crawford snickered as he walked up, Keith glared at him.
"Shut up, I already told you she doesn't like me," Keith glared, Crawford rolled his eyes.
"Hey Keith," Kate said as she walked over to the three boys, "Did you kiss me on the forehead last night?" she asked, Keith blushed a little as she asked him, he thought she was too gone to even realise he did.
"Get real Flat Chest, why would I do that?" he asked, Jackie glared at the boy.
"What did you call her?" he asked, his voice low and threatening.
"Well, Small Dick, you were the only other one in the room besides me, Glaceon and Buizel were already asleep," Kate stated.
"What did you call him?" Jackie asked in shock, Crawford shook his head.
"Don't even bother, they're like this all the time," he answered, Jackie looked at the two of them in shock.
"Ok, maybe I did, what ya gonna do about it?" Keith asked, Kate glared at him.
"Simple," she answered as she pulled out a frying pan, Keith sweat dropped as he looked at it in horror.
"OH SHIT!" he yelled before he took off running around the Base, Hastings shook his head as he looked at the two children.
"HEY KATE!" Shaymin yelled, Kate looked at the pokemon, "Shouldn't you be reading that book I gave you?" he asked, Kate looked at Keith then her unattended bag before glaring back at Keith.
"We'll finish this later," Kate glared as she grabbed her bag, just as she was about to enter the hallway to the rooms, Hastings spoke up.
"We saw these machines around Pueltown," he stated, everyone in the Base turned to look at him, Kate, Keith and Crawford looked at him in shock.
"But, why didn't you say anything?" Crawford asked as he looked at Hastings then Jackie.
"We thought they were a new fashioned mail boxes," Hastings replied, Kate face palmed.
"And I thought being related to Crawford was bad," she sighed as she turned back to everyone.
"But this would explain why the pokemon were going haywire," Jackie answered as he looked at Hastings, who nodded his head.
"Alright, you head the man, Kate, Keith, you two are to head to Pueltown and stop the machines," Barlow ordered, the two nodded their head before Jackie spoke up.
"Woah, hold the Phione," he said, "There is no way on this earth that I am letting my little sister go with that pervert," he stated, Keith sweat dropped.
"You only just met me, how do you know if I'm a pervert or not?" he asked, Jackie glared at the boy.
"You called her Flat Chest," he stated, Keith thought for a moment.
"SHE IS!" he yelled, Kate wacked him over the head.
"Look, if there's no way on earth, I can get Deoxys to send you to space," Kate stated, Jackie glared at her, "Look this isn't up for discussion, we're going that's final and if you don't like it, tuff shit," she glared, Jackie sighed.
"Fine, but if he touches you, I'll kill him," Jackie stated, Keith then poked Kate, Jackie glared at him.
"You know what I mean," he stated, Keith thought for a moment.
"Oh you mean this?" Keith asked as he slid his arms around Kates' waist, Jackie glared at him.
"No, I mean if you feel her up or anything," he stated, Keith looked at him.
"Well, I already have this," he said as he took her bra out of his bag, Kate blushed, while everyone else looked at her in shock.
"I didn't do anything, it's a long story, let's just go," Kate glared at Keith as she dragged him out, Jackie just stood there in shock for a moment before regaining his composure.
"YOU'RE DEAD KEITH!" he yelled, Crawford poked his shoulder.
"Honestly, if you hit him or anything, that'd just make you a hypocrite, you're as much of a pervert as he is or as I am," he stated, Jackie just glared at his brother before walking over to help their grandpa.
"You're mad you know that?" Kate asked, Keith smiled.
"Yes, yes I know I am," he stated, Buizel Face palmed, while Glaceon shook her head, Shaymin just rested on Kates' head.
"What's with the Shaymin?" he asked, Kate sighed as she showed him a book, "What about it?" he asked, Kate face palmed this time.
"This book holds tones of tales and legends, including Summer-,"
"Shush then," Keith glared as he slapped a hand over her mouth, Kate gave him a confused look, "With my dad and Phantom in Almia, there goons could be spying left right and centre," Keith stated.
"Mmmphmm," Kate said, Keith took his hand away from her mouth.
"What?" he asked, confusion written clear on his face, Kate sighed.
"I said, alright let's just go," she answered, Keith nodded as the two walked towards Pueltown.
