*****

Rameon and Shania made their way through the snow, arms wrapped tightly around themselves. It was freezing in this village! Rameon squinted against the wind, heading toward a gently glowing hut. It looked warm. His abra friend sped up to catch up with him.

"This weather is awful, Rambi!" she complained. "Are you sure this is worth it? Even for your girlfriend?"

Rameon gave her a look. "Shania, this isn't just about being near Felicity... I have explained this so many times..."

Shania giggled. "Riiiiight..." The two reached the door to the hut. Shania leaned a paw on the door, looking down at the sandshrew. "But if our house doesn't come with a fireplace, I quit."

Rameon sighed, turning to knock on the door. As soon as his knuckles hit the wood, it swung open, sending Shania sprawling inside.


Come in, come in! My goodness, come in! I can't believe you've all been waiting outside in the snow this time! You could have knocked earlier, you know!

"Your voice... It is loud..." Shania grumbled, picking herself up off the carpet. Rameon trotted inside quickly, shivering. He looked up to the man speaking, a tall elderly ninetails with greying fur. Rameon looked him over eagerly. He had never seen a ninetails before.

My name is Callahan, or Calla, for short. I'm the guild registrar, you know. I'm quite good at it!

"Oh, well, I'm Ram-"

Oh, please allow me to take your belongings, they're all wet! I'll just hang them in front of the fireplace to dry as we go over the formalities.

"Oh, I - " Rameon had barely removed his scarf before Callahan snagged it from his hands, throwing it over a chair in front of the fireplace. Shania opened her eyes a slit, staring at the energetic fire type in shock.

And the paperwork, of course! There will be a lot of that, don't you worry one bit!

"Paperwork?" Shania said incredulously. "Aww man..."

You do have the forms that we've mailed you filled out, yes? That does always make things go much quicker here.

"Um, yes..." Rameon rifled through his bag, pulling out a stack of papers. He held them out to Callahan. "Here you are."

What's this? These forms are soaking wet.. and the ink has run! Goodness, we're in for a lot more paperwork than I could have hoped to dream of!

"I... What?"

No matter, I have spare forms, and all the time in the world! I trust you have no pressing appointments yet, so I'll write down your information now.

Rameon rubbed his forehead, trying to hold back impatience. He wanted to see Rollie, Piers and Felicity.

With your help, of course.

"Of course," Rameon said dryly. He glanced to Shania to see her reaction. His brows drew together when he saw her lying down for a nap. He nudged her with his foot. "Wake up," he hissed. She waved a paw at him nonchalantly.

Let's get right down to it, shall we? My fastest time for entering a team in the official guild registrar is a touch under a few hours; let's see if we can break the record!

All right now.. names, please?

"I'm Rameon Irnflash. And this..." He shot Shania another look, but she turned her face away, shifting to a comfortable position. "... is Shania."

Ahh.. what.. commo- er, good names you all have! How do you spell them?

"R-A-M-E-O-N, and S-H-A-N-I-A."

Interesting spelling! Are you foreign? French, perhaps?

"I beg your pardon?"

Ah, no, forget it, France is just made up here, you know. Often used as comic relief. Er, just forget that.

Moving on!

What alias do you wish to give you lot of fellows? I hope it's something good! I've been so bored by Pokemon insisting to use a name like "Team Awesome" or anything of the sort. More like "Team Mediocrity," I like to think! I'm sure you have a much more original name.

"Ahh, um..." He looked down at Shania. A team name? He had not thought to make one. "Shania, what's our team name?" he whispered to her urgently.

"Sleep."

"Shania! Come on! Just help me out here!"

"Team Sleep!!"

Rameon sighed, looking to Callahan. "Team Slumber it is."


I knew you wouldn't let me down! Is that the normal spelling, or do you insist on losing letters, or replacing them altogether entirely? (I hope not..)

"Yes, it's the regular spelling." Rameon nudged Shania once more. She sighed, sitting up.

And.. done. All right! Next topic!

You there, lad! You seem to be the leader of the team, here. Why don't you tell me about yourself? Please make it interesting! I'm not filing a police report, you know. I don't get paid for this, either. I do it for the stories people tell! Everyone has a story! (Some are better than others, though. That's for sure..) However, I do hope yours isn't filled to the brim with angst and darkness, you know. We have enough of that as it is with the recent crises we've been going through!

If you insist on weaving a yarn of incredible sadness and general malaise, please make it good. I'll discern the necessary details from your story and put it down in the log book here.

"Well, I come from a clan of ground types to the east," Rameon started. "I worked with the tunnelers, planning where to dig and marking where the stone was safe and where it wasn't. In my offtime, I worked on building sources of light for the workers. Lanterns aren't as efficient as I'd like." He paused. Most pokemon were bored to death when he got into details about his inventions. He decided to skip past his private work. "Anyway, getting proper resources for my work was hard back home, and I've gained contacts from Tao, so I decided to move here and see what I can gain from working here."

What an enchanting tale! I can see why you'd probably like to join the rogue's guild!

"Ahh, we're here to join the merchant's guild, actually," Rameon said hesitantly.

And you there, lass, what is your story? Your leader has done an excellent job of keeping me awake at this late hour, I hope you do the same!

"I lived in a different place," Shania said shortly. "But then I moved in with Rameon. I came with him because I follow him everywhere." She yawned, looking at her sandshrew friend. Rameon gave her a small smile which she returned.

Very well, then! It seems I have all I need in order to register you here in our peaceful Tao Village! Just to make sure all the facts are correct, please look over them and sign your initials at the bottom! Don't forget to sign off on your belongings! You wouldn't believe how many people forget their accessories, only to leave them here with me! (Please don't do that, I have so many things cluttering up my attic in dusty old boxes..)

What's that, you say? There are only two of you? Of course I know that! I do have eyes, you know! What if, during your travels, you decide to recruit, or add on an extra member to your team? Would you really want them to fill out all this paperwork from scratch? There's no problem with me for that, I assure you! This is just a convenient foresight! There is only room enough for four signatures on here, though, so please, no more members than that!

Rameon and Shania stood up, eager to be off. It sounded as though Callahan was done with them, and they were more than ready to be off.

Well, now! I don't think I'll keep you here any longer, I have everything I need from you! I haven't broken any records for time tonight, though. Your story took up quite a bit of it! (Thankfully, it didn't put me to sleep.. it's happened before). Oh well! Time to conclude our business here!

"Gah - Okay we're going!" Rameon sputtered, barely managing to grab his scarf before Callahan was pushing the two smaller pokemon toward the door. "Um, thank you?" he added as the ninetails pushed the door shut behind them. Rameon wrapped his scarf back around his neck, sighing.

"That guy was a total nut," Shania said, smirking. She stretched, yawning. "Golly, when we get home I am sleeping for the next two days."

"No you aren't," Rameon chided jokingly, leading his friend by the elbow as he walked away from the hut. "There's a party at the Cafe tomorrow, remember? You're going to come with me, if only to mingle with other pokemon."

"This is abuuuuuse," Shania wailed. She sighed, pinning her ears back. "Fine, I'll go to your little party. But I'm sleeping until it begins, damn it."
