Moemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia

Chapter 4

"Wait, why are we leaving to go out to the statue?" I asked, unsure of what we were doing as our class headed out to the statue.

"Weren't you paying attention in class?" Ms. April asked.

"Well…" I said, blushing, my eyes glancing to Petal, who waved slightly.

"Well, luckily for you, I'll explain." Ms. April sighed. "You see, one of the Moemon Rangers from the next town over has volunteered to come here and teach our students about ranger activities."

"What about people who want to be operators?" Rythmi asked.

"Oh, come now, Rythmi." Ms. April said, smiling, patting her on the head. "This is a RANGER school. No one gives a f*ck about operators."

The class soon reached the large statue, where we met the other class. Soon, a man with a strange brown afro and brown eyes walked up. He was wearing a red and black ranger uniform, and he had a playful expression.

"Hello there, children!" The man said, waving. "My name is Crawford. I'm a moemon ranger!"

"Hello, Crawford!" The two classes said, as we lined up in a circle around the large grey statue, sitting down on the grass that surrounded the pedestal, which Crawford stood on.

"Since I'm a Moemon Ranger, I catch moemon, however, I don't keep them in things like moeballs, we work with them!" Crawford said. "And this is my partner, Cherry!" Crawford, pointed to the young moemon at his side, a Budew. She wore a dark green shirt and a bright green shirt, with bright green hair tied up in a bun, and her eyes had heterochromia, one eye red and the other blue.

"Hello…" Cherry said, waving at the students shyly. "I'm Cherry…"

"Now, here's the question and answer section!" Ms. April announced, stepping up next to Crawford. "Ask our ranger here questions, and he'll answer it!"

"I have a question!" One person from the other class asked. "Were you a trouble-maker when you were at school?"

"Yes!" Crawford said, laughing. "In fact, Ms. April said I was her most troublesome student ever!"

"And now it's me." Keith whispered into my ear.

"Bullshit." Petal said from my other side. "I'm twice the troublemaker that you are."

"Then I'm four times the troublemaker that YOU are!" Keith shot back.

"Kids, be quiet!" Ms. April interrupted.

"Um, I have a question." Petal said, raising her hand.

"What is it?" Crawford asked.

"You're in your twenties, right?" Petal asked. "So how old does that make Ms. April?"

"Oh, back when I was in school, Ms April was-" Crawford said, Ms. April interrupting him by knocking him over the head.

"Th-that's none of your business." The flustered Ms. April said, brushing her hair out of her face. "Are there any other questions?"

"I have a question!" Rythmi said, raising her hand, practically bouncing up and down. "Do you think I can be a good operator someday?"

"That's not a real question, Rythmi!" Keith interrupted. "Ranger, do you think that I'd make a good ranger?"

"That's the exact same question!" Rythmi shouted.

As the two of them began arguing, Crawford took the microphone.

"I think you can do anything." Crawford said, pausing for dramatic effect. "…As long as you put your heart into it!"

"Amazing, ranger!" The class applauded.

"Alright, I'll accept one more question!" Crawford said, scanning the raised hands, before he finally made his decision.

"You." Crawford said, pointing at me. "With the bad haircut."

"Hey!" I said, running my hand through my hair. "Anyways, let me ask you something." I said. "Do you enjoy being a ranger?"

Crawford was taken aback by my question, as though he hadn't expected someone to ask that question.

"Well…" Crawford said, thinking. "Yes. Yes, I do." Suddenly, his styler began ringing, and he answered it.

"Hello?" Crawford asked into the styler.

"Crawford, report to base. We need your help!" The styler said.

"Alright!" Crawford said, jumping off the pedestal. "Sorry to cut our little chat short, but I'm going to have to go."

"We understand." Ms. April said. "Rangers have their responsibilities."

"So long, children!" Crawford said, running down the lawn and out the exit of the Ranger School.

"Alright, let's return to the classroom!" Ms. April said, leading the class down to the main building, but Keith held me back for a second, Petal and Rythmi next to him.

"Alright, guys." Keith said. "Let's the four of us, at this statue, proclaim our dreams to the world!"

Keith walked up to the pedestal. He placed a hand on one square side of the statue. Petal walked up next to him and pressed a hand on another side, Rythmi went to Keith's other side and placed her hand down as well. That left me. I slowly walked up the pedestal and placed my hand on the final side.

"I'll start." Keith said, looking up at the sky. "I'm going to be the worlds' greatest ranger!"

"I'm going to become one of the top three operators!" Rythmi shouted up to the sky like Keith, smiling.

"I'm going to be Kelly's bride…" Petal mumbled, none of us catching what she'd said.

"Repeat." Keith said, voicing our thoughts.

"I'm going to live my life for the people I care about!" Petal shouted up to the sky.

"My turn." I said. I looked up at the sky, my dreams passing through my head. "I'm going to help everyone I can!"

The four of us looked up at the sky, and smiled, looking at each other before we headed down the steps to the pedestal and headed off to the school.

I reached into my pocket for the note that Petal had slipped to me during the speech.

Dear Kelly.

I know that in the past few days things have been a little… weird.
But however, I think we should finally have a serious conversation.
Meet me at the statue after lights out, okay?
Then, we can at last have a true talk about what we each want.

Love, Petal

XOXOXO

After Janet made her rounds, I snuck out of the dorm room and over to the statue.

"Petal…" I whispered.

"Right here." Petal called out. I walked over to her and sat down beside her, the two of us staring at each other in the dark.

"Kelly…"

"Petal…"

"You go first." I told her, nudging her in the arm.

"Kelly…" Petal said. "I've been feeling a little weird…"

"What about?" I asked.

"Well, I've been… thinking…" Petal said. "About you, and me, and… us…"

"Us?" I asked. What was she talking about?

"Yes, us!" Petal said, nodding. "Like how this is going to work out and all."

"What?" I asked. I couldn't exactly understand. Was she saying…

"Why are you so dense?" Petal asked. I thought I saw a glimpse of tears on her perfect face. "I'm trying to tell you I love you!"

Yes. Yes she was.

Petal embraced me tightly, and kissed me passionately.

We escalated from there.

Sorry, sorry, sorry. I know, this is a little bit unrealistic for people to love each other that fast. But, I'm a fan of true love, and love at first sight. I didn't show the two of them having sex, because, well, I want to respect their first time.
