[@Veradana] [h3][color=ec008c]Fumi the Steenee[/color] and [color=silver]Aika the Mawile[/color][/h3][b][Team Rhythm][/b] [b][Valiant Village - Town Gate][/b] Within minutes the duo had gathered the necessary supplies for their cross-continent trip, and were now patiently waiting for their third party to arrive. [color=silver]"Are you sure about this? We barely know anything about him, and he's newer than we are."[/color] Aika voiced her concern, Fumi giving a smile in reply. [color=ec008c]"Hey, wasn't too long ago we were kinda in the same boat. The Guild helped us, now we can pass it on. Let's give him a chance at least."[/color] Aika nodded, pulling a Wonder Map from her Treasure Bag. [color=silver]"I think I've got a good course plotted. First we'll go through Tranquil Forest. It isn't a Mystery Dungeon, so we should be fine. After that we'll have to go through Mount Bristle, then through Oran Forest, and finally Grean Meadow. After that, just a bit more walking and we should be at Treasure Town by Lunch Time."[/color] She said, Fumi jumping up rather pumped. [color=ec008c]"Great! Then there shouldn't be any problems! No as soon as what's his name gets here we can get started!"[/color] She finished. [@UmbreonRogue] [h3][color=f7941d]Hiryu the Charizard[/color] and [color=0076a3]Riptide the Samurott[/color][/h3][b][Team Wildfire][/b] [b][Valiant Village - Central Plaza][/b] It was clear their words did little to ease the newcomer's nerves. As she explained her purpose in coming, Riptide would give a somewhat disappointing answer. [color=0076a3]"If that is why you came here, then I'm afraid you might be disappointed."[/color] He said, Hiryu sighing as he picked up where he left off. [color=f7941d]"Yeah, while some Guilds like Wigglytuff's down south come up with all kinds of treasure and rarities, 'most everything we get here goes to the village."[/color] As Hiryu tried to find a silver lining to the situation, a familiar voice spoke up. [color=0072bc]"Hiryu, Riptide, is something wrong? Should't you be getting ready?"[/color] Asked Luna, as she came up with Wade and Scarlet from Team Rhythm. [color=f7941d]"Oh, Guildmaster Luna. No, not exactly. We were just trying to help... her..."[/color] He explained, pointing down to the nearly shaking Buizel. [color=0072bc]"I see... I can sense what lies beneath that nervous exterior..."[/color] She said to herself before bending down to be somewhat on eye level with the Water Type. [color=0072bc]"There's no need to be afraid or nervous here. This is a place of peace and harmony. I am Luna, one of the Guildmasters of the Valiant Village Guild."[/color] She said in a soft caring tone, then looking up to Team Flashforce. [color=0072bc]"I can handle this from here. You two better hurry, Riot will be waiting."[/color] [color=0076a3]"Yes, Guildmaster."[/color] Riptide said plainly. [color=f7941d]"R-Right. We gotta grab that stuff from the Kecleon Market. Let's go partner."[/color] Hiryu replied, the two hurrying off into the crowd. [color=0072bc]"Now... Wade, Scarlet, you're okay with our lesson starting later than usual, right?"[/color] She asked, the two Pokemon with her nodding. [color=0072bc]"Good. Well then, would you like to have us show you around? Knowing your surroundings might help ease your tension."[/color] She asked with the same tone as before. [@Stale Pizza] [h3][b][color=black]Omen the Absol[/color][/b], [color=f49ac2]Serenity the Sylveon[/color], and [color=6ecff6]Krystal the Glaceon[/color][/h3][b][Team Sanctuary][/b] [b][Valiant Village - Guild][/b] Her words went unanswered, as the Normal Type kept his gaze on the board ahead of him. Serenity was slightly saddened that he'd practically refused her kindness, sighing as she heard a voice pop into her head. [center][color=5F9EA0][i]"Omen and Serenity of Team Sanctuary, Guild Master Spirit requests your presence in his office."[/i][/color][/center] The Guild Master wanted to speak with the two of them. She looked over her shoulder to see Omen already on the move. [color=f49ac2]"I wonder what's going on..."[/color] She said as she passed her sister. [color=6ecff6]"What are you talking about?"[/color] Krystal asked as Serenity stopped. [color=f49ac2]"Spirit wants to see me and Omen. Just... wait here till we get back, alright little sister?"[/color] She said, Krystal drawing a frown on her face and pouting somewhat. [color=6ecff6]"Alright... I always get left out of the good stuff..."[/color] She complained, Serenity shaking her head as she followed her partner towards the Guildmaster's Office.
