OOC: I honestly busted a seem on this one BIC: "No... She's already ahead of us?!" Absol said utterly confused.

ooc: "I don't know." Meowstic said. "I don't sense her near us." She turned as she searched, even though she didn't have to.

"Oh no. She has psychic powers. I need a tin foil helmet!" Absol said covering his ears.

"Don't be ridiculous!" Meowstic said. "Maybe we got turned around in the smoke."
ooc: Goodra is still with Machamp. She's just, loud.

OOC: Figured it was something like that. Anyway, Absols going to run into the smog now. He'll run into a cave without knowing it since the smog is dense around the entire entrance.
BIC: "Nope. Ain't getting another hug." Absol said standing up quickly and running into the smog in a straight line. He held his breath the entire way, not wanting to risk it might be poison.

"Seriously." Meowstic said following after Absol using her psychic to track him. "For a seasoned fighter you do run around confused a lot."

"Absol kept running with his mouth closed until he ran into a brightly lit cave with two tracks of lava water falling on both sides along the passage. He took a breath, but the heat was so dry it made him cough. It was weird how fast the temperature rose as he cupped his paw over his mouth and nose.

Meowstic was struggling to get to Absol. Her eyes burnt and it was hard concentrating with the heat, but she finally caught up with him.

"I think we're here." Absol said when Meowstic caught up, though he sounded more like a Weezing then an Absol. The path ahead curved hard to the right such that you couldn't see more then a few meters ahead, "Shall we push on?"

"I guess we have no choice." Meowstic said. "But how can even a fire pokemon stand this heat?"

"I'm hoping it'll get cooler up ahead." Absol said as they pushed on. Going around the bend, it was a slow pace and after the right turn it seemed to curve to the left slowly, as though going in a ring on the inside of the Volcano.
OOC: The ring is only a quarter circle before it cuts left and opens into a cavern at the center of the volcano where it's livable and cooler, for Fire Types at least.Open to the sky with the lava far below creating an updraft. Imagine The seventh gym from Pokemon Indigo Plataea. That's basically what this area will look like.

"I think it's getting a little better." Meowstic said breathing heavily. "Have you heard Goodra again?"

"Not yet, but since we heard her earlier we can be sure we'll be seeing her again." Absol said as they walked. He sounded better as well, having gotten used to the heat, "Maybe if I suddenly appear interested in her she'll run off scared. She seems to want attention more then a serious relationship." Absol thought out loud as the came around the bend leading to the left turn and the final corridor.

"You could try that." Meowstic said. "But if it doesn't work you're going to be in a lot of trouble." The came into the cavern. "Think this is the place?"

"It opens up ahead. I think we're here." Absol said and rushed on ahead, dying for a breath of fresh air. In the cavern ahead as Flareon sitting in the center of the room with a Magma by her side and three Houndour sitting in front of her.

Meowstic followed after Absol and stopped in front of the pokemon. "Hello. It's a pleasure to finally meet you." Meowstic greeted Flareon, despite being out of breath.

Flareon looked up at Meowstic with a bit of an inquisitive look, "Pardon, but we're in the middle of a lesson. I'll be right with you." Flareon said and took the three Houndours to the edge of the platform they were on. She seemed to be trying to teach them to use Flamethrower, though none of them could do more then an Ember. She seemed content with their trying at the very least. Magmar didn't break his gaze from Absol the entire time. He seemed to just be watching though, with no sort of intent one way or the other.

"A school?" Meowstic said in Absol's mind, not wanting to disturb them. "I would never have expected that. The guardians keeps surprising me." She thought back to Vaporeon. "And I don't think it'll stop anytime soon."

'Small class for any school. Weird that Houndoom isn't here with the Houndour though.' Absol thought back. He also didn't want to disturb their lesson, or do anything he might regret with children nearby.

"Maybe this isn't his class." Meowstic said as she kept talking in Absol's head. "I wonder if there are many fire pokemon that comes to learn here. Or if Flareon is a good teacher."

"I'm self taught other then what my mom taught me." Absol said as he looked at the Houndour. One of them reared back and in a very impressive display he actually blasted a Flamethrower, though it was weak. The other Houndour pounced on their friend in a form of childlike celebration and Flareon smiled at a job well done. While the others were busy, she walked up to Meowstic, "And what can I do for you?" She said in a sing song voice that spoke volumes more then her demeanor.

"I believe you know why we're here." Meowstic said lifting her neck to show the necklace. "Would you please tell me what your dream is?"

"Hmm." Flareon mused a bit looking at the necklace, "I'm sure you know of the policing force lead by Arcanine? I plan to make an enforcement force that specializes in night time operations. These Houndour are the start."

"A enforcement force? What for?" Meowstic asked curious.

"Too many pokemon are allowed to do atrocious things under the cover of night and numbers. They get away with things because of the far too structured system in place by Arcanine. Sometimes you just need the under cover operative bound only by good morals to get the job done." Flareon said and looked back to the kids playing, "They're still young but they all have the heart of children. We protect that heart while they focus on growing up."

"That is a big dream and hard path to want to walk." Meowstic told her. "It is also a good dream."

"As far as the keys, I've got a proposition for you. Join me." Flareon said and reached into the fluffy hair around his neck. She pulled out the key, "We don't guard these keys for no reason. The thing they unlock is not for little children to tamper with, or so I'm told. I want you to help me with my dream that will bring order as opposed to Absols which will only likely reap chaos. I'm sure we'll offer much better companionship as well."

There was a pause from Meowstic. It was a weird pause, a hesitation, it was hard to say if it was from leaving Absol, Flareon's offer or something else entirely. It wasn't normal for her though, even for her eccentric nature. She spoke again. "Before we talk about the keys, could you tell me about Eevee? What happened to her?"

"She retired form her current job. Not much more to it then that. As I'm sure you've noticed, each of the guardians wants something more then being a guardian provides. Some of us want freedom, other a cage. Some of us family, others a lover. To protect and to be protected. I've only met one guardian that wanted to be a guardian more then anything else, and that was Eevee. However, as you've been told, she had to stop being a guardian." Flareon said again in her sing song manner, "What is your dream?"

Meowstic thought about it. "I want... my friends to be safe." She said. "I'm sorry, but I can't accept your offer. It seems there is still much I don't understand about the guardians and there's much the guardians doesn't understand about us."
