"Ok Shadow, we're all here," Coral said from her place beside Frost. "So what do you want to talk to us about?"

Shadow sighed and flicked his tail from left to right and his eyes quickly scanning the room.

"And why is Team Pack here?" Leafblade chimed in, blinking and glancing over to where the other group of Pokémon sat.

"Ok everybody listen up!" Shadow called to get everyone's attention. "The reason I called you all here is for a very important mission."

Silence fell in the room after Shadow spoke those words.

"A mission? What kind of mission?"

"Are mission today is to track down Midnight and bring him to the Pokémon Police."

"But we don't even know where to start looking for him," Pearl pointed out with a confused look on her face.

Shadow sighed softly and nodded his head at that.

"That's where Lavender and Swift come in!" the dark-type eeveelution responded with a nod of his head to the two Pokémon in question.

"Wait, what?" Frost exclaimed in shock. "Isn't that a bad idea? What if he kidnaps Lavender again?"

Shadow frowned and glanced over at Lightning for help.

"That's a valid point, Frost," the Pikachu replied calmly. "And that's why we'll be following them at a safe distance away of course."

"But are you sure this is even going to work?" Pyro spoke up, his eyes shining with uncertainty. "What if this plan of yours backfires?"

"Don't worry Pyro," Shadow replied swiftly, "we've got a plan."

"Ok then!" came Aura's voice from her spot on the table. "Let's get this show on the road and catch Midnight before he kidnaps anyone else."

"To be safe I'll be putting you in groups," Shadow informed them with a serious expression on his face.

The others nodded and sat patiently as they waited for Shadow to speak.

Shadow had just opened his mouth to begin speaking when a sudden nock made them all jump in surprise.

"I'll get it!" Frost said, standing to her paws and patting over to the door.

Frost slid the door open with her paws and on the other side was a Leafeon with light golden fur and dark brown eyes, and the second was a small Glaceon with white-and-dark-blue fur with frosty blue eyes.

"Rose! Flurry!" Frost exclaimed excitedly. "What took you two so long to get here?"

Rose smiled nervously and looked down at her paws. "Well you see..." she began slowly while looking back up at Frost. "We were on our way here when we ran into an Umbreon, he said his name was Midnight." Rose explained.

Frost's eyes went wide and she motioned with her tail for Rose and Flurry to follow her inside.

When they reentered the room, the others all looked up in surprise when the saw the two new arrivals.

"Hi Rose! Hi Flurry!" Leafblade cheered happily when she noticed the two eeveelutions standing beside Frost.

"Hi Leaf," Flurry greeted her with a pleasant smile. "Sorry we're late."

"Shadow," Frost said, getting the attention of the large Umbreon. Shadow's eyes turned toward her and Frost took a deep breath. "Flurry just told me that she and Rose had a run-in with Midnight before they got here."

"They what?" Violet exclaimed, blinking and staring at Frost with wide eyes. "They saw Midnight?"

Frost nodded her head in response.

"So what should we do?" Frost asked, turning back to face Shadow.

"We stick with the original plan!" he told her firmly. "You'll go in groups and follow Swift and Lavender from a safe distance away."

"So who's going with who?" Pearl asked him curiously.

"Brownie," he addressed the small brown-and-cream Eevee. "You will go with Luna, Jet, and Pyro." Brownie nodded her head in response.

"Frost, you will go with Leafblade, Lance, and Coral."

"Scorbunny, I mean- Dawnmist, you will go with Violet, Ruby, and Inferno."

Shadow then turned to face Zap, Aura, Ivy, Willow, and Ember. "You will stay here until we return." The five Pokémon all nodded their heads in response.

"As for me, I will go with Lightning, Rose, Spark, Flurry, Dusk, and Snow."

Once the groups were all sorted out, they all took off into the forest, looking for the black-and-silver Umbreon that Lavender had described.
