Silver Group's Quest

A boat stopped just as it came to the shallow waters of a nearby island, after hearing about this island from the locals on another island Case thought it would be a good place to train in isolation. His Pokemon were on deck with him he had only brought three Pokemon as the sailor refused for him to bring any more, as soon as the boat stopped Kabu jumped into the water and began to swim around crying out cheerfully once he reached the shore. "We'll Ace, Smiley, it looks like we are going to have to swim across." Suddenly Smiley pulled Case's shirt over his head cutting off his vision and picked him up after Ace climb on the Gengar's back. Smiley picked up Case and flew (or floated) over to the shore and dropped him face first into the sand, Kabu instantly tried to dig Case's head out but he simply lifted his head out and shook any sand off. Ace jumped down to be at his partner's side while the Gengar slowly floated down while laughing, case sighed at the sigh "Smiley...."

Jonathon stood on the side of the ship, watching the sea go by. Dawn was napping on his shoulders and Mist was floating about. He had no idea exactly where he was going or who everyone here was. He was jut glad to get away from things for a while. He looked around and rubbed Dawn's neck. "I hope we get there soon."

Zachary and shadow stood on the edge of a large speed boat ready to jump onto the island the boat driver said he wouldn't come to a complete stop and hearing some of the rumors about this island he could see why. They got close to the shore and jumped shadow made it across easily but when Zachary landed he lost his balance and started to fall towards the water but he quickly thru all his weight forward and landed face first in the sand. He stood up and brushed the sand off "well that was graceful" he said to himself then he went to wave good bye to the driver but he was already a small dot in the distance "well here we are" he said to shadow reaching down and scratching him behind the ear while looking around.

Kevin sighed as he saw the island approaching from the boat he was in. He jumped out once the boat made it to the shore. He made his way a good distance away from the shoreline before releasing Champ, Totem, and Charmel from their portable homes. He noticed the others and gave a wave, he didn't know any of them unfortunatly. Charmel looked at the others curiously while Champ yawned. Totem made his way to Kevin's shoulder with a little difficulty.

Kevin took the note, opened it, and read it aloud so that the others would hear. Once finished he looked at the present handed to him and opened it. Charmel stared at the earing in awe, the flame on his tail becoming a little brighter and larger in size as he was starting to become giddy with excitement. Totem and Champ look at each other, confused. Charmel had a thing for mysterious adventures that the Electrike and Machop just wouldn't understand. Kevin pocketed the current ring in his ear then put in the Charmander one. He thought it was rather adorable.

Case was distracted not paying attention to the events going on around him, he ran his hand through the sand. Ace nodded understanding what only they could both see what the other pokemon may have felt, the island was giving off a strange aura this made him uneasy but it seemed that himself and Ace were the only ones affected on his team due to the fact Smiley was still floating around laughing at his prank from before and Kabu was still swimming in the water without a fear in the world. Once the Delibird handed him the wrapped gift he opened it carefully not to tear the wrapping paper and smiled like a lunatic as he pulled out the pendant that resembled Ace "Look buddy it's you."

Ace didn't make a smart comeback like he usually did being an aura pokemon Case could understand what Ace said, but all Ace did was luagh. He looped it around Ace's neck and fastened it tight "merry Christmas buddy." Case then pulled out a small tub of pokemon puffins (Those things you make in the 4th gen game to raise your contest stats) "thank you and merry Christmas Delibird."
He didn't notice the other people there until one of them began reading out a note, Case may not remember a single thing that would be said but he knew Ace would. Once the person was done speaking he walked over to the one who was reading aloud "Hey there I'm Case Sliver an aura trainer from Lucario Kingdom in Sinnoh (*does the salute from attack on Titan before hold out his hand to greet him self.) Did you guys come here to train as well?"

"I guess you could say that's why I'm here. Names Kevin Tanaki. This is my partner, Charmel," He introduced as he shook Case's hand before pointing to the still giddy Charmander. "Totem," he continued, motioning to the Electrike on his left shoulder, who gave him a lick on the cheek. "And Champ." he finished,  motioning to his Machop who gave a polite wave of greeting with a smile.

Zachary opened his gift from delibird and saw a badge that looked just like shadow he smiled at it he showed it to Shadow and the stripes on his back seemed to glow slightly just like on the badge. Zachary looked at it again and slipped it into his pocket next to his mothers sapphire the normal warmth he felt from the sapphire seemed to be doubled. He listened as Kevin and Case introduced them selves "well it's nice to meet you" he said nodding to them both "my names Zachary Underwood and this is my friend shadow" he said gesturing to him "and to answer your question no I didn't come to train here" he said looking at case.

"Nice to meet you, Zachary." Kevin said with a smile, he didn't know why but it was as if Charmel's giddiness was affecting him, for he didn't smile often. Champ, Charmel, and Totem each greeted the others and their Pokemon.

Ace was the only one of his pokemon that got in on the introductions with the other trainers pokemon...well until Smiley started to try and scare/prank them all, Kabu on the other hand just continued swimming around in the shallow waters of the shore. "Nice to meet you both." Case smiled at the other two trainers "so Zach if you didn't come here to train why are you here?"

Kevin's Pokemon jumed slightly, Smiley had succsseded in scaring them. Charmel tried to play it off by crossing his arms and saying in his own tounge  that he wasn't scared, he only jumped because he knew the other to would.

Shadow just ignored Smiley not being scared at all. "A hunch" Zachary answered then quickly changed the subject "so what do you think these are for" he said accidently pulling out his sapphire he quickly slipped it back in his pocket and pulled out the badge that looked like shadow despite the cold weather it felt warm in his hand.

"So, are we just going to stand around on the boat and talk about things, or actually go out onto the island?" Jonathon piped in, rubbing his hands together for warmth. He made a faint layer of aura to increase the warmth. "I'm Jonathon, by the way. Jonathon Montoya." He said, walking through the group and down the gang plank.

Smiley and Ace ended up getting into a fight and Ace shot an aura sphere at Smiley who it passed through and would have hit Case if he hadn't caught it single handedly and dispersed it. Case the fist pumped the air and smirked "Right lets do this." He beamed, it seemed the giddiness in the Charmander's aura was effecting aswell "Red and White stuff right...OH I FOUND SOMETHING WHITE (* scoops up two handfuls of sand and tosses it into the air as if its snow.) PURE WHITE SAND....what don't tell me noticed it...or am I just color blind...I'm wearing a blue jacket right?"

Kevin rose an eyebrow and Charmel snickered. Totem and Champ glanced at each other again, not sure of what was going on anymore. "Yes, your jackets blue." Kevin said, holding back his own snicker at Case's behavior.

Zachary smiled as he watched case he didn't know why but he felt merry and cheery he looked at everyone and they seemed focused on case and case was focused on something else he turned around held out his hand and concentrated on the sand. It started to move and take shape and within 10 seconds there were miniature figures of everyone made of sand he then compressed it slightly so they wouldn't fall apart he felt tired but not as much as he expected he smiled and admired his handy work glad he had done it.

(I waited over 24hrs for mist to post. i'm skipping him)

Case scooped a handful of the sand and filled it into a small leather sack which he tied to his belt. "Well come on lets get busy collecting!" he said fist pumping the air before running north with Ace on his shoulder, Kabu who had crawled onto his head (he doesn't know when) and Smiley merged into the darkness of Case's shadow making it darker and almost a blackish purple.

Time slowly passed yet they had not found the thing the riddle had asked them to find. A gush of wind would erupt through the northern sky and past them. The aura trainer surely being able to here the words within the mist. "find the north pole" it whispered softly into his ears

Zachary felt a gust of wind go past him it felt different but he ignored it more interested in the scenery

Kevin sighed and followed along, deep in thought about what awaits the group and their Pokemon. Charmel frowned as the gust of wind past, Champ ignored it, and Totem had fallen asleep in Kevin's shoulder.

O[oh god]

THE WIND WOULD REPEAT ITS WORDS yet this time the magic of christmas now past would blast into everyones ears telling them what to find THE NORTH POLE!!
