So they left the once again peaceful Pueltown. Despite the success of their mission, Kellyn was worried. Very worried even. Thanks to the other idiot of a henchman, they now knew the names of those who were putting the machines everywhere, the name of the latter, as well as their primary purpose...What a mess.

- /...Fischl?/

- (Yeah, little Amethyst? Are you anxious?)

- / I would say not reassured, rather. It's just that...It's going downhill all over the place...Team Dim Sun, the Gigaremo...I don't know what to think about it./

- (...You want me to be honest? I'm just as lost as you. I'm afraid it's something far beyond us...)

- / You're most definitely right.../

- (But hey, if they're all as dumb as this henchman, we should have a chance!)

The bird's joke made the brunet giggle, and he relaxed immediately afterwards.

- (Let's put that aside for the moment. We'll see what our superiors think about it and we'll act accordingly.)

- / It's okay with me. I'm tired...!/

The foursome's members sighed in relief when they finally spotted the base in Vientown. They all just wanted one thing: to rest.

- We are back!

- Welcome back to you four!...Kate? What is this dark face?

- As I said in my Voicemail, this Team Dim Sun worries me...And on top of that, they took the last Gigaremo...

The Ranger leader shook his head before placing his hands on the free shoulders of his cadets.

- I understand your reaction. I, too, am not at peace. But you both did the best you could, especially for a second year and a new recruit. So don't be too hard on yourself, okay?

- Understood chief....

- Oh? What's this?

All present turned to the Mechanic who was holding in her hand a small black stone in the shape of a diamond. She made it shimmer the light, but yet... Nothing was reflected. She passed her find to Professor Hastings who examined it carefully.

-...I'm going to take it to the Union so that our teams can analyze it. I take this opportunity to say that a conference aiming at countering the Gigaremo will be held as quickly as possible! Barlow, you come with me. We will get to the Union as soon as possible.

The man straightened to his full height, almost doing a salute.

- Roger, Professor! Crawford! Since I won't be around for a while, you're in charge of the base!

- Leave it to me, boss!

- Perfect. Let's go, Professor.

The two adults then left, leaving the rest of the team behind.

- What a day! You both did a great job. Take the rest of the day, okay?

The younger Rangers looked at each other, visibly pleased. Maybe they were going to play together a little for a change.

- By the way, you both have mail.

If the brunet's face lit up, knowing WHO the sender was, the one with cobalt eyes became jaded.

-...Don't tell me it's HER?

- Given the size of the envelope .... I won't say anything.

- For the love of Mew! I'm fed up with it! She can't manage on her own, that one?! She's already 16, damn it!
