I look back at Celes for a moment before getting a mission off of the board, and end up smiling for some reason. That was weird, why did I smile like that? [i]Maybe I should focus on getting a mission... ugh, why am I always so tired in the morning? Some of the other pokemon don't have a problem with this.[/i] I think as I look over the board with a glazed look in my eyes. One of the missions jumps out at me, apparently there was treasure hidden in Foggy Plains, and this Gregory guy knows exactly where to find it... he just needs a capable team of explorers, most likely us, to help him out. I wake up a little bit, and tear the mission statement right off of the board. I then run back to my team and say "Guys, I've got a mission, let's go!" After that, the smell of breakfast hits me like a truck, but, I figured I could skip that today, after all, what was the worst that could happen, right? We'll be a five-pokemon exploration team for a little while, so I could probably just go on without breakfast. [i]I just hope my team doesn't hate when I get hungry during the exploration...[/i] I then think as I still hold up the paper, which, now that I look at it, had a little map pointing out the location of Foggy Plains to anyone who, well, took the mission. On the front, it said...

Attention, explorers!
I, Gregory, have finally found the location of the famous treasure that was apparently
hidden in Foggy Plains for generations. Unfortunately, I have no idea what that 
treasure might be, but from the tales that my dad used to tell me, it's going to be a
good one! The only problem is.... I'm not tough enough to get through this place on
my own. If an exploration team would like to help me out with this, I will split the 
treasure with them, thanks in advance

After eating a huge breakfast, my first one this week, I head over to the mission boards, where Josh was mulling over some random mission involving shady folk and Crystal Chasm. I finish the apple that I brought to the boards with me, and try to pick out anything that would make me not want to go. [i]Hm... new area, that's nice, putting an end to these shady folk, that'll work, and, hm... reward... oh, here it is, 400 poke. Not bad.[/i] I think as I read the mission statement. I then say "Yeah, let's do that one! Um, I like that mission, I mean." I tried to hold in my enthusiasm, but it didn't work all too well. Of course, that could have been just because I always felt much more awake and energetic early in the morning for some reason. Apparently, it was unusual for a pokemon to be so ready to go in the morning, after all, Spruce looks like he just left a graveyard rather than a nice, comfy bed with those glazed-over eyes. Thankfully, just before things got too weird, he perked up and ran back with a mission in his leafy hands. "So, are we leaving now, or are you guys going to have breakfast, first?" I ask the rest of my team, who were all gathered around the board. I then notice a bellsprout, a slugma, and a ponyta somehow climb down to the mission area. The poor bellsprout seemed nervous about something, and the trio seemed to be some sort of exploration team... strangely enough, however, it seemed as though the bellsprout was the leader... weird.
