Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia.
Chapter One: Not quite how things should be.

Ranger School, Graduation Morning// Ms. Aprils room
For the better part of a month, I had done one useless task or another in this school. The most fun so far had been sneaking into the girls dorm, but my partner in crime Keith, had gone off and woken one of the most ditzy blondes I had ever seen trying to feel her up as she slept. That led to both of us have to haul ass out of their as fast as possible back to our own dorm. Ofcourse, the principle arrived a few minutes later to chatise the guys in general from trying something like that again, since it was too dark to successfully see who was in there, but once he left I started chewing out Keiths ass for doing something so stupid. He, in turn, gave me the finger and muttered something about having the balls to atleast try. We haven't spoken since that incident a week ago.

I've done a few of the basic styler training techniques, but I refuse to practice those worthless Ranger Poses nearly everyone else here goes for. More to do the point, I've finally decided to do something about Keiths comment from that night a while back. Its only fifteen minutes before the crack of dawn, when the teachers begin waking up and getting around to their morning rituals. I smiled to myself as I slid out of bed and softly approached the door, sliding it back and slipping out without a sound. My intended location was simple; Ms. Aprils quarters. This was going to be a good day, and not just because I was finally going to be getting out of this place.


I worked the lock to her door with a safety pin back and forth a few times before I heard the slight click indicating success, and quietly turned the knob before pulling it open. There she was, in all her naked glory, stretched out comfortably on her bed with only a single sheet loosly tangled around one leg. As my eyes took in the sight before me my body froze up, one hand still on the door. I knew that if she woke up I was probably in deep shit, but rumors abound had led me up to this moment, and I was about to find out if there was any truth in them. My watch beeped softly, making my jump and I threw a rapid glance between it and the only female teacher in this place with a slight panic. She slumbered on, however, light snores carrying over to me. I managed to force my racing heart to calm down before it burst out of my chest and slowly stepped inside, bringing the door to a close behind me. It locked again with a much louder click than the noise of my watch and I cringed, turning to shoot it a very dirty look.

"Hm... Lex.. ?" she murmured softly from behind me, making my blood run cold as I once more froze up. I heard behind me the shuffling of her sheet being dragged up to cover her body before her light footsteps touched down on the floor and approached me. "What do you think you are doing in here at this time in the morning, Lex?" she questioned me with a slightly sharper tone, quickly awakening. I swallowed and turned back to her, keeping my eyes fixed firmly above her neckline. "..." my tongue refused to respond to my commands to spit out a haste explanation I didn't have. "Well?" she asked when I didn't respond. She reached towards me and I expected to be slapped, but her hand slid right past to rest on the door knob, making sure it was fully locked.

"Sit down on my bed." she ordered, stepping aside and motioning for me to do so. I quickly obeyed. Once I was there she turned back to face me and her facial expression was no longer quite so fierce. Infact, I'd almost say it was... playful?? "Did you come here expecting this?" she asked me, dropping the arm that was holding the sheet up to her neck and allowing it to fall to the floor at her feet. My eyes expanded to the size of dish plates as I took in the sight of her bare breasts, and after a few moments, managed to rove down her toned stomach to the neat little triangle of redish-brown hair between her legs. "Do you like what you see?" she asked me in a tone of interest. I managed to raise my eyes just long enough to give her a brief nod before they descended back down.

"But you came here for more, didn't you? Have the rumors spread so quickly that I should perhaps expect another of your dorm mates to try this?" she asked me, lithly stepping forward in a slow manner, swishing her hips in a most intoxicating way. "Or I wonder if you perhaps heard it from Crawford on your 1-day internship? He never was very good with dirty little secrets, you know.." she trailed off, dropping to her knees in front of me and gently tugging my green shirt over my head and dropping it to the floor beside her. All I could do was just sit there in stunned disbelief that the rumors were true and my beautiful teacher Ms. April was actually doing this, that she hadn't dragged me before the principle for a dismissing from the Ranger School.

One hand reached up to my chest and pushed my over onto my back, as she rose up and used the other to unzip my shorts, reaching inside to rub my rock solid cock teasingly through the fabric of my briefs. She leaned over and pushed her plush red lips against my own, kissing me in the most intimate manner I can ever recall recieving in my life! Her lips parted enough to let her small tongue probe at my own sealed lips, asking for invitation, which I quickly allowed. She slipped it inside and began running it along my own in a soft, teasing way that in combination with her hand below, made me shudder in pleasure.

Her other hand was running over my stomach and chest lightly. For the next couple of minutes we remained like that, before she decided to push on to the next level. She pulled up and away from me, squatting down on her heels as she tugged my shorts and briefs down to my ankles together. One hand incircled the base of my shaft firmly, as she leaned in and licked along my ballsack, giving a shudden slow upward jerk to my dick. I shuddered again and moaned loudly. Her hand trailed back down in a slow motion before sliding right back up, and she released my balls to lick along the underside all the way to the head, letting go with her hand to do so a couple of times, before once more resuming her handjob. I was close to blowing my load from the pleasure I have never felt before in my life. Her mouth resumed licking and now sucking my balls, her hand sliding up and down more rapidly with the saliva coating the underside, and with a low grunt as I tried to hold back to keep this pleasure rising, my hands fisting into the bed, I shouted her name as I my cum sprayed out to coat her red-brown hair.

She slowed her motions and pulled away as I panted, eyes shut as a sudden exhaustion claimed me. She smiled at a job well done, but still needed some satisfaction herself. She helped to lift me fully into the bed then climbed ontop of me, making sure my softening shaft was back to atleast half mast before she stradled my hips and, knealing on either side of my waist, used one hand to guide my dick inside her pussy. The sudden warmth, slick tightness that engulfed me forced aside all hints of tiredness as a surge of adrenaline ran its course. I opened my eyes and leaned up, wrapping one hand around the back of her head and pressing our lips together again, this time pushing my tongue into her mouth. The slightly salty taste put me off for a few moments but I was able to get over it and keep on frenching her. She seemed surprised at my action but leaned into it, reaching down to rub at her clit with one hand as she brought my other up to her right breast and held it there until I began massaging the soft flesh beneath it. She used her other hand to do the same to its neglected twin.

For the better part of the next ten minutes she rode me, bringing her self to atleast two climaxs and forcing another from my system. I learned a lot about the female form and its pleasure points that morning, as well as some more sensitive areas of my own body that she found licking, kissing, rubbing or biting. Her alarm going off ended our fun, however, and reminded both of us that today was going to be a very busy day. With a smile she slid off my sweat drenched form tenderly and stood up, stretching wide and making her body jiggle in a couple of places that had me growing to half mast again rapidly. She smiled at the sight but shook her head no. "You had better get back to your dorm, Lex." she told me. "... Yeah." I responded after a few moments, not really wanting to, but not wanting to get caught sleeping with my teacher, either. I managed to drag my self out of her bed and slide back into my cloths a few minutes later while she was in the shower, though she had locked the door to the bathroom to prevent me from trying anything else, such as joining her for some more fun.


Ranger School, Graduation Day, several hours later
I stood with the rest of the rookies waiting to get out of here, wearing my new Ranger outfit. One of the local Pokemon Rangers by the name of Crawford was there, the same guy that had shown up earlier this month to address some of the issues we wanted to find out about before becoming a Ranger ourselves. The principle spewed some more shit about why it was so great, to use our new skills and styler responsible, blah blah blah. I mostly tuned the old man out. Ms. April smiled at us from beside him, lingering just a moment longer on me than the others. Keith, the obnoxious jerk he is, noticed. "Where were you this morning?" he asked me in a low whisper. "Proving I've got more balls than you, Keith." I responded in the same low whisper. His eyebrows met in an angry arch, but before he could say anything, a new voice interupted the on going rambling.

"Well, whadda we have here! A buncha newbie jerks looking to be a thorn in our side, huh? Get 'em, Tangrowth!" the voice belonged to a man wearing a dark purplish-black outfit and cap keeping his hair restrained. Two massive Tangrowth came rushing up from behind him at us. I glanced back to see the Ranger with a torn expression on his face. Well, he wasn't about to help right away, and I know I wasn't going to get trampled without a fight. I shoved Keith and the next nearest kid near me out of the way, one hand reaching down to flick on my styler attached to my right wrist. Whoever this idiot was, he had somekind of strange machine behind him, beeping ominously. "Target located." I said lowly, glancing around to see Keith apparently had the same idea I did after he recovered from the shove. We locked eyes for a moment across the clearing as the others rushed out of the way, and saw him nod his head.

I charged forward at the first Tangrowth as he headed for the second. The Ranger behind us sighed loudly and dashed ahead between the rushing pokemon at the grunt infront of the machine. A moment later the Tangrowth had decided to acknowledge me by changing its pace and direction to target me. I just managed to extend my style and throw myself out of its path when it changed direction again to come back at me. 'Think, think! How do the actual Rangers do this??' I shouted at myself mentally. Suddenly I recalled the long forgotten instructions from a month ago when I first arrived and pressed the trigger switch to activate the highly advanced spinning top-like device and drop it to the ground. A pale blue beam of energy extended from the launcher and I had to roll aside to avoid the Tangrowths next tackle.

Pushing to my feet I spun around, throwing my arm with the launcher and controler out towards the pokemon, and watched as the styler shot forward across the grass towards it. I adjusted my arm and the styler moved in that direction. With a smirk I began rotating my arm in a circle, noticing as I did so that a blue light came to life on the top of the styler and as it began rushing around the Tangrowth, it left behing a trail of pale blue energy in its wake. The Tangrowth paused to stare at it in confusion for a moment before rushing at the trail, smashing through it. My controller beeped to inform me the styler had just taken damage and my smirk became a scowl. I adjusted my aim and kept up the rotating motion, sending the temporarily slowed styler back into rapid motion around the large pokemon. The Tangrowth charged again, but this time I jerked my arm to a halt, and the energy trail faded as the styler spun in place, waiting to get going again. The Tangrowth looked at me in something Ii could equate with anger and annoyance and rushed me again, ignoring the device on the ground.

I tried to get out of its way but this time the Tangrowth feinted to the left before suddenly throwing itself to the right and smashing into my body, sending me soaring into the air with a yelp of pain. I crashed to the slightly thick grass, which softened my landing, but it still felt like a bitch. The Tangrowth turned around and came at me again, seemingly uneffected by its rushing about. I narrowed my eyes in anger and pushed to my heels, staying down low and ready to dodge rapidly to the side depending on where it decided to head this time. It tried another feint, but I wasn't fooled and threw myself aside intime. I began spinning my arm with the controller still attached somehow, ignoring the pain it brought as the styler itself shot forward to spin around the Tangrowth in rapid motions. I adjusted my aim and spin as it turned to come back at me, keeping the loop forming from breaking even as the pokemon came at me again. 'Come on.. come on! It has to be nearing 100%' I thought in frustration and worry, not wanting to be body slammed by that thing again.

The distance got shorter and shorter as it neared until the with a ding, the styler came to ahalt around the pokemon. The Tangrowth itself slowed down and stopped a few inchs away, looking at me in mingled curiosity and annoyance. A sharp cry from behind it got my attention and I wearily stepped past it to see what caused it. The grunt fell to the ground with the machine behind it broken into two pieces. Not far from him Keith was attempting to wrestle his styler free of that Tangrowths multiple vineline appendages. I stepped past the Tangrowth I had successfully tamed and bent down to pick up my styler, slotting it back into place on the controller attached to my wrist. Crawford leaned down to pick the grunt up by the front of his shirt. "You wouldn't happen to know anything about Team Dim Sun, now would you?" he asked in a low threatening tone.

The grunt shook his head rapidly in a no gesture. "Pity. I was hoping not to have to resort to this." Crawford responded, dragging the defeated man over to Keiths Tangrowth and, taking him by the scruff of his neck and the seat of his pants, shoved the man inside the Tangrowths belly of vines. The pokemon gave a start and looked at him in questioning, dropping Keiths styler, but did not fight it. Instead it dragged the man into it further. His muffled crys of discomfort quickly became shout of indignation and finally panic, turning into choked sobs. Crawford shuddered. "I hate doing that, but eventually these creeps are going to get the message. No, you do not want to know what is going on in there!" he added louder to Keith as the other boy gave him a questioning look.

Placing a hand on Keiths shoulder he motioned for him to return to the others, then came over to me and did the same. The principle took a few minutes to get everyone back out into the open and gathered before him. Crawford took over at that point. "That grunt was a member of Team Dim Sun. I say was, because by the time he gets out, he won't want to have anythng to do with them again. Trust me when I say, do not lose to a Tangrowth. If your styler runs low on energy fighting one, flee. If you let your pride keep you going, its going to be shattered by the time that pokemons done with you. Not to mention anything else if you happen to still be a virgin.." he murmured the last softly, shaking his head to clear it of such thoughts. "Anyhow, to the point: I am disapointed in most of you. Very much so. Only two of the gradulating Rangers chose to tackle the greater threat of the pokemon while I dealt with the lesser threat of the Gigaremo. Lex and Keith have my full recommendations to gratulate at the highest level with Ranger Rank 2 authority behind them." he stated, then stepped off of the podium.

"Uh.. well. A very insightful commentary, thank you Ranger Crawford." the principle stated as he stepped forward again. "We will take this into consideration, but it is truly the Unions decision to allow such a rank to be passed." he added. Crawford rolled his eyes in annoyance. He turned to me and Keith. "It'll have to be confirmed by Barlow, but until than consider it authorized." he told us quietly. Keith smirked with an air of superiority at the words. I shrugged. Happy, but still in pain. The principle rambled on some more before calling us up one by one and declaring us official Rangers, Operators, or Mechanics, depending on which field we signed up for at the start. When that was done we got sent on our merry way out the front gates to whichever respective location most applied. In my case, Veintowns Ranger base. Keith followed, but I knew it was only to get his rank confirmed then approval to head over to out neighboring region of Fiore. Me, I was happy to stay where I knew the locations, right here at home in Almia.


End of chapter one. Many more to follow. I intend to write a darker series of events for the game of which this story takes it title, Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia. Corrupt Rangers, dangerous events, and nobody is how they appear to be. For this starting ranger, the stakes are going to be quite high as he uses and abuses his authority as a Pokemon Ranger.
