"Alyssa, wake up!"

I sat up and looked at Gaia, who was on the ladder that climbed up to my bunk above hers. She was still in her purple fleece pajamas and had her slippers on so her feet wouldn't get hurt.

"Come on! They say the pool is frozen! Let's go check it out!" Gaia exclaimed, giving me only a brief explanation for waking me up at... What time in the morning?

"Guys, what time is it?" I asked, seeing that Gaia had already woken the others up, including Greninja.

"It's 6 AM. Maggie went to grab Aubrey a glass of water since we aren't allowed to go outside yet and when she came back she told us that the professors were talking about the pool being frozen over!" Gaia explained again in more detail. "It's so hot out though! I bet it was that glaceon again!"

"Maybe." I hopped out of bed and grabbed a change of clothes. "Something tells me we're up for the day now, so I'm getting changed. Maybe you guys should too."

We all quickly got changed into something comfortable. I wore the camp's themed shirt and some light blue jean shorts. I tied my light gray hoodie around my waist in case I needed it. Pearl came out with her usual blue jacket around her waist as well, wearing darker blue jean shorts and a white t-shirt. Her hair was tied back and had her blue and white bow in it today. I tied my hair up as well, but didn't put anything fancy in it. A plain black elastic would do for keeping it out of my eyes. Gaia wore a light purple t-shirt and black shorts, Eve wore khaki shorts and a green t-shirt, and Aubrey wore a pink skort and black t-shirt. Lilac decided on a lavender blouse and blue jean shorts.

"Okay, all set? Let's go then! Hey, we look good." Pearl commented. She was pretty into fashion, and I'm pretty sure she said that every morning, but the way she was looking at everyone in the group it seemed her compliments were genuine.

"You say that every morning, but thank you." Aubrey smiled. "I think we all look good today too!"

"She'll like it even better this evening when we all have to dress up and match both our partners and the camp theme." Gaia said.

"Yeah! I'm looking forward to that!"

"How are you going to match both Jade and Sun and Moon?" I asked.

"Well, moon blast is a fairy type move, right? I've got that going for me I guess. I've planned something kind of sort of, don't worry!"

We were outside at the pool by this time. Some other campers were there, most of the counselors, Mike, and the professors. They were all looking at the pool trying to figure out what to do with it.

"Oh shoot. Looks like we're allowed to be here just for this." Gaia looked surprised.

"It was probably an ice type pokemon. And since they're so uncommon in the wild this season we can only assume that it had a trainer." I overheard Professor Trillium speaking to the other professors. "So far as we know, it could've been Alolan sandslash, Alolan vulpix, glalie, cryogonal, or frosmoth."

Gaia and I shared a look with the rest of our cabin. We all knew about the glaceon, but we hadn't told anyone else yet. I wasn't sure if we should.

"What do we do?" Gaia whispered to us. Eve and Aubrey shrugged.

"I think it might be a good idea to tell them." Pearl said. I voiced my agreement. That was enough for Gaia, and she went over to the professors to tell them.

"We need to find that glaceon! Anyone got any ideas?" I ask.

"I don't know. This is weird. It's not even just the top of the pool, it's that the entire thing is frozen solid!" Eve noted, knocking on the ice a couple of times.
