Thinking in my head, I toss back and forth in my hay-mattress bed. Hmmm...I wonder if Snowball is awake. Only one way to find out, right? "Snowball?" I whisper quietly so no one near us hears me. "Are u awake Snowball?" I whisper again. "Y-yeah? What is it?" she responds the same tone I asked. "This is great. Ya' know? Being an Exploration Team so quickly? Guildmaster Wigglytuff sure was kind to let us in. And we ate berries to our tummy's content!" I point out. "You're right." My Piplup friend's beak opens and she lets a YAAAAWWWWWNNNNN escape from her mouth. "I can tell u are tired. We should get some sleep. There's a big dag ahead of us." I say. Laying my head on the 'pillow', I fall fast asleep.

"UP AND AT 'EM! IT'S MORNING!!!!" yells a loud Pokemon. It's hard to identify a Pokemon when your eyes are closed. "Uhhhh...good morning....Snowball..." I say, half asleep. Snowball stands up off of her bed and lets her wings and flippers stretch for length. "Morning Flames!" Snowball greets me. "Oh my gosh we're late!!" We both verplaats as fast as we can to the lobby where everyone is probably waiting for us.

We arrive and everyone is staring at us like we just committed a crime. Chatot flaps his wings stressfully with an expression on his face that looks like he's upset. "What are u two doing up so late? u girls are lucky that Guildmaster Wigglytuff isn't here yet of he'll...he'll-" "GOOD MORNING FRIENDS!" "HELLO GUILDMASTER WIGGLYTUFF!" We all respond. "Guildmaster, I suggest u address the Friend Code for our new recruits." Chatot whispers to the Guildmaster. "Zzzzz...Snorfle...Zzzzz..." Everyone starts chatting when they realize that the Guildmaster is asleep. But how can he be asleep?! His eyes are open! "Is he asleep?" "No doubt about it!" "Yeah u got that right!" "EEeek! But his eyes are open!" Chatot clears his throat to get all of the crew's attention. "Thank u sir! We all value your...uhhh...words of wisdom." Chatot says. "Ok Pokemon! Take our Guildmaster's words of wisdom to heart! Finally, let's not forgot our morning cheers!" Morning cheers? "What's he talking about?" Snowball asks me. "ONE! DON'T SHIRK WORK! TWO! RUN AWAY AND PAY! THREE! SMILES GO FOR MILES!" Everyone shouts except for Snowball and I. Since we don't know the cheer, we were just listening. "Ok Pokemon! Get to work!" Chatot dismisses us. "HOORAY!" Everyone cheers. A Diglett and Dugtrio dig into the ground and leave. While the others-Sunflora, Croagunk, Bidoof, Loudred, Corphish, and Chimecho- leave to do their duties. "C'mon let's go, Flames!" Snowball tells me as I'm daydreaming. We both take one step to the left and Chatot flaps his wings like before. "Hey! u shouldn't just be wandering around here! u two come with me!" Chatot commands us. We follow him up a bamboo-like ladder. Snowball and I stand in front of a wooden board with flyers on it. Chatot stands before us. "You two are just rookies. So, we'll have to start u with this adventure!" The muziek Note Bird Pokemon takes a flyer off of the wall. "This'll do!" He hands Snowball the flyer for her to read. Snowball clears her throat. "Hello! My name is Spoink! An outlaw has run off with my most prized possesion. My precious pearl! That pearl is life itself...to me! I just can't seem to settle down if that pearl isn't in it's proper place atop my head! But I've heard my pearl has been spotted! It zei to be on a rocky bluff. But this bluff is reported to be really unsafe! I could never go somewhere that freaky! Oh, friendly reader, would u be so kind as to go to the bluff and get my pearl? I beg your help, exploration team member! ~From, Spoink." My eyes start to widen. "Wait a second!! We're only supposed to fetch an item someone dropped?!" Now I'm angry! My voice raises. I return back to normal. "I'd rather look for treasure of disccover the unknown! Things like that." I exclaim. Once again, Chatot flaps his wings agressively. "Hush! It's important that u rookies do your duties. Now pay attention! I repeat the warnings. If u are kicked out of a dungeon, u will lose all of your money and some of your items. Now, do u understand what u are going to be against?" "YES SIR!" We shout. "Good! Now get to work u two!"
