Angel Wings
Amy: I'm back! So, now that the whole 'stuck on a ship thing is gone' I think I'm going to give our Angel Wings gang a reward!
Dash: Really? What is it?
Amy: We're going to *drumroll* Cedar Point!
Dusk: You do realize that we are only fictional characters made up in your-
Amy: And I hope you realize that I have the video of you and Dawn kissing.
Dusk and Dawn: *blushes*
Angel Wings Gang: WHAT?!
Amy: Oh, did that slip out? So sorry there, Dusky-boy.
Dusk: Why I outta...
Amy: Outta what? I know you liked it Dusk.
Dusk: Where's the phone? I'm calling the Disclaimer Dude.
Amy: WHAT?! No! *chases after Dusk*
Angel Wings Gang: ...
Aqua: I knew that Dawn and Dusk would end up together! Yay for LowLightshipping!
Dawn: ... What's LowLightshipping?
Aqua: I ... have absolutely no idea.
Angel Wings Gang minus Dash and Aqua: *falls over anime style*
Aqua: Ohmygawd! What happened? What'd I say?!
Dash: Guess I was the only one expecting that. *shrugs* Amy47101 does not own pokémon.

"I never thought I'd be so relieved to see Luana blow up a toaster." I said as fake anime tears rolled down my face. Luana came running out of the now smoking kitchen, waving her hand in front of her face, and coughing on the deadly fumes.
"Luana, how many times are you going to blow up our kitchen electronics?!" Barlow demanded over the blaring smoke alarms.
"I'm sorry! It was an accident!"
"This isn't the first time that this had happened?" Dawn asked as she looked between our peeved Base Leader and a frightened Luana.
"No, and it probably won't be the last." Eleanor said as she shook her head, trying to hold back laughter. Yes, all of us where here, at our Veintown ranger base. The point? Well... how does ten new top rangers sound? Yep, and it's no lie. My friends and I have basically been under house arrest, due to not being able to head anywhere without the reporters attacking us with questions. Thankfully Dawn was a real smooth-talker for us who weren't used to all the attention.
And right when the attention from being heroes/captives on the Hellion boat died down, what do we get? A call from Prof. Hastings and Chairperson Erma, alerting us that they were recruiting the most top rangers in the history of the Ranger Union: ten. And those ten rangers? Us. And, thanks to Aquas large mouth, the reporters found out, and then we were being hunted for a good scoop once again.
Now we were hanging out back, tiki torches lit on the warm night and christmas lights lining the porch. Luana, who had set out black lumps that she called 'cookies', we found that Crawford had somehow figured out our favorite drinks, and set them in ice on a table with the 'cookies'. Now we were awaiting food other than chips and cheese curls.
"Hows that grill going?" Barlow sighed as he turned towards Crawford.
"Won't light." the Afro-haired ranger sighed, adjusting his chefs hat and apron that read, go figure, 'kiss the chef'.
"Just let me at it." Flare muttered. "I'll light it up for ya."
"Hey, Crawford!" I yelled. "Flare'll help ya out!" I turned to her. "Don't worry, they know." she looked at me, and smirked.
"Hey, Afro Head!" Flare yelled as she jogged over to the grill. She smirked. "Watch this." She rubbed her thumb against her index finger and, much like a lighter, a small flame burst up. She reached down and touched at the charcoal and with a huge 'fume' sound, the fire ignited. Crawford jumped back, saving his eyebrows from a certainly horrid doom. Flare put on an overly sweet smile. "You're welcome~!" she sang out as she, well, pranced away.
I heard a hacking sound, and realized, much to my horror, that Dash had attempted to eat one of Luanas 'cookies'. I knew he would do anything for some sugar, but to be that desperate...
"Luana, Crawford, someone, anyone call poison control, Dash ate a cookie!" Eleanor exclaimed in fake horror. Luana rolled her eyes, and everyone laughed as Dash made a blind grab for a soda, his reach for a regular one thankfully intercepted by Aqua, who passed a diet in his direction. He cracked it open, and chugged it down as quick as he could. With the can empty, and crushed in his hand, he let out a few pants, before he looked up and let out the most awesome burp ever.
"Dude..." Crawford stared in awe. "That. Was. AWESOME." As the guys passed compliments on the burp, the girls, minus Flare, rolling their eyes, Dash made and announcement. As it quieted down, he spoke.
"Sorry Luana, but I have never, I repeat, never, had seen someone botch cookies so badly."

We left our ranger base that morning, and I found that it was a bittersweet feeling. Those Veintown rangers are like family to me now, and parting with them is almost as hard as parting with my own mother and siblings back home. But hey, we grow up, we move on, and we reach new achievements. And we're bound to run into them again. We are rangers, after all!
So after a few somewhat tearful goodbyes-who would've thought Barlow is such a softie?- we began a calm walk towards the Union, but the fun really began as we came upon the Lookout Ridge. I smiled, remembering a few quests up this way with Luana.
"Luana loved shouting over the edge." I smiled.
"And when she says shouting, she means it." Carter shuddered, covering his ears. "My poor ears are still ringing."
"Let's try it!" Aqua squealed, half skipping towards the edge. The blonde took a deep breath. "I LOVE COTTEN CANDDDDDDDDDDYYYYYYYY!"
"I think Dash should be saying that." Dusk muttered, shaking his head. Aqua bounded back towards us.
"Onward!" she cried out happily, pointing towards the path leading towards the Ranger Union. We passed by Puel Town and the Peace Tower, the Light Crystal shining up above like it always does. The walk was peaceful, some small talk being passed around between us, waves and congratulations from villagers and city folk as we passed through town. Guess we're more famous than we thought. When we reached the entrance to the Peril Cliffs, however, we reached a problem.
Two growliths and an archinine strode up to us, and stared at Flare and Tyson dead on. Specifically Tyson. The fire-eevee growled something towards the trio, and the archinine smirked, and growled something before turning and walking away. Tyson, enraged, let out a battle cry, leapt off Flares shoulder and bounded after them.
"C'mon, Tyson, it ain't worth it!" Flare sighed as she facepalmed. She reached out for her partner, but he let out a long growl. Once he was sure no one would stop him, he went after the trio of fire-types. Flare ran her hand down her face, and turned to us. "Sorry, they must've challenged him. He has never once backed down from a challenge." she smiled. "Gimme a minute, I'll go gather him up." Flare jogged after her partner, and we stood there for a bit.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a roar of a pokémon rang out. Loud bangs and crashes could be heard, and we all heard a familiar female shriek.
"Forrest!"
