Way to the Dawn [Eng Version]

Chapter VII: Ranger Union and Perilous Cliffs

This visit of Altru Inc was...Interesting. Other than the exhibition on the various machines that the company had developed, a subject on which Kellyn had no idea, so to speak, and Isaac's presentation of the various presidents. The group had the good surprise to meet the one currently in charge: the third of his line, Blake Hall.

A real honor, according to the words of the blond. The latter also had to leave, in order to return to work, leaving the trio alone.

Then, the brunet received a Voicemail from Barlow, telling him to come to the Union with a Pokemon capable of destroying a red Gigaremo. Which the young Ranger did by capturing one of the Bibarels in Pueltown before being guided by Murph to his headquarters.

- Here we are! The Ranger Union! Good now, I am in pro mode... Humhum! Ranger, go to the conference room on the second floor! Chairperson Erma and Professor Hastings are waiting for you!

- "Roger!"

Luckily, the building wasn't THAT big...The trio couldn't get lost! It wasn't like ALL the doors looked the same!

- / H-Hm....Which one is it?/

- (Are you asking me that?)

As the teenager was internally panicking and cursing himself for not asking the Operator for more details, a young woman with long green hair came out of one of the rooms. She immediately noticed the boy's lost and slightly terrified expression.

- Are you okay little one?

- "A-Ah! E-Excuse me Madam! Do you know where the conference room is? My partners and I are supposed to go there but....We don't know which door is the right one."

- The conference room....? Ah, you must be Kellyn, aren't you?

A look of surprise crossed the Ranger's face.

- "That's my name. And you are...? Sorry, but your face is unfamiliar to me..."

The woman laughed frankly before ruffling the brown hair. Making it's owner even more confused than before.

- My name is Wendy. But they also call me "Flying Ranger", or even "6th Top Ranger". Nice to meet you!

- "As you already know, my name is Kellyn. And this is my Partner, Fischl. Pleased to meet you, Lady Wendy!"

As the older one held out her hand, she bumped into the boy who bowed politely to her.

- Oh...You don't have to be so polite. Come on, stand up and stop the honorifics while you're at it.

The youngest stood up then, a shy smile on his lips before accepting, after a slight hesitation, the handshake.

- Professor Hastings told me about you two and your exploits. It's an honor to welcome you to the Union! I sincerely hope that we can work together one day.

Kellyn's cheeks took on a beautiful pink color, his eyes beginning to dodge Wendy's emerald gaze.

- "I-I'm just a simple Area Ranger! Kate has a lot more potential than me!"

- And humble moreover! Don't denigrate your abilities little one, you already show greater potential than some Top Rangers, trust me.

The brunet shifted from one foot to the other, embarrassed, not knowing what to do. The adult's words seemed to be filled with a motherly and reassuring tone...And that disturbed him a little.

- (Well, what's happening to you little Amethyst? It's rare to see you so shy!)

- / I-I don't know....She looks like a mother reassuring her child...It's...Strange./
