A.N.- Hello readers! As I write this, my sister is shooting me with a toy machine gun. So yah… if it's messed up tense wise or grammar wise, blame her. That was a weird author's note…

Disclaimer- I don't own Pokemon and my sister doesn't even own that gun she's using.

Chapter 7: Initiation tests

"Where is this guild anyway?" Leroy asks.

"Crystaltop town," I respond.

"On top of Mount Iceridge!?" Katie questions.

"That's the place," I answer.

"Why are they named that?" Leroy asks naively.

"Crystaltop town is named that because the ice that forms there looks like crystal and it's on top of Mount Iceridge," Truflight answers.

"Mount Iceridge is called so for a simple reason. It's made entirely of ice," Gwen continues. We make it up the mountain without any trouble. The Pokemon here are still nice it seems. Once in town we go straight to the guild.

"Hello, We sent a registration note earlier," I say.

"Team name?" a Grimer asks.

"The Freezeburners," Leroy answers.

"Says right here that you only have three members. Who are those 3?" the Grimer asks.

"They joined soon after our registration. Is that a problem?" Truflight questions.

"No. Not at all. We just need to know who they are so we can add them to your roster. Names?" they ask.

"I'm Katie," Katie answers.

"I'm Gwen," Gwen responds.

"I'm Evan," Evan states.

"Alright, you're registered," the Grimer says. "Go check with the Guild Master for initiation," the Grimer says.

"What's your name by the way?" I question.

"Slugguls," he answers. We then head to the Guild Master's quarters. We arrive at their door.

"Hello? Guild Master? Can we come in?" Gwen questions, knocking.

There is some clanging and the sound of something being pushed along the floor. "Come in," they say.

*I'm being shot again*

We go into their office. On a rock slab in the center sits a Shelgon.

"We're here for initiation," Evan says, failing to use proper protocol in addressing the Guild Master. I think to myself, he wants to test his limits because he thinks it's funny.

"I have much patience, but don't test me. Refer to me as Guild Master or Endrew. I do

not wish to be forced to hurt you. I would have to, to maintain authority. Just as I'm slow to anger, I'm very slow to trust," Endrew instructs. "You have three initiation tests. Your first is to complete one rescue," Endrew states.

"They already helped me find and bring him back, Guild Master," Katie says, gesturing towards Evan.

"Your second is to have three more Pokemon join you. Which I see has already happened. Your third is to bring in a Pokemon for arrest. Go see Sarah, the Sceptile, for an appropriate mission. Dismissed," Endrew commands.

A.N.- I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Please review and let me know what you think! I want most missions to be criminal arrest missions so leave your villains too! Endrew out!
