Zal ran through the streets, and saw the flyer. "Someone wantin' a good pirate, ey?" said Zap. He ran into the building and jumped infront of them. "How about a new crer member, matey?" he asked.

Xander was genuinely curious now. He looked at the gem carefully.

"Looks like a piece off a Water Stone. You say it has great powers, then lets see them"

"Alright, just calm down everyone...I'll demonstrate, and then we anyone and everyone who wanted to join my crew can join."

Sam took the round stone off his head. Suddenly, it startewd to glow, and then it dissappeared. Of course, it wasn't the only thing to dissappear. Sam has magically done so as well.

"Now you see me...aw, you know the rest."

Xander stared at the spot where Sam had benn. He chuckled a bit.

"Well I'll be. You say there are others, right Sam? Well," He extended a scythe;"youve got your self a new crew member."

"Aye, that's one powerful stone you have there!" said Zap. "Perhaps the other stone would grant marvalous abilities?".

-----------------------------------------------

And there was that boat. He knew just too well what would happen next, after experiencing it a dozen times or so, he was rather bored of this. He knew he had to get on the boat, and the only way was those stepping stones over there. But what if this time, he went a different way. He would drown if he went that way and not being stupid, but curious, he entered the image of a forest. He walked for a bit, and noticed a crack in the ground. Not slightly worried, he jumped down. Inside, he saw a large chair, covered in vines. Curiousity made him go over and touch it, and as he did, something struck the side of his face. He turned to see a vine whip returning. Suddenly, the chair blasted a spray of water him. The room began to fill with water, and the roof sealed itself. Here we go again.

Then he woke up, and sighed. When would he get a different dream for a change. Honestly, prophetic dreams were not helpful, especially seeing that he had a fear of water. He looked around, and remembered where he was. He was no longer hungry and wanted to attack something. Maybe that was why when he heard the word 'pirate', he thought it would be a good idea to see what was going on at the table in the corner. And when he saw a Croconaw in the crowd vanish, he panicked, and the sushi bar hadn't got a table in the corner anymore, his accidental Flamethrower had made sure of that.

He walked over to the inferno and said in a anctious tone, "Oops! That was a mistake. I ment to use double team to get here quickly. I want to sign up. Is there a list?"

Sam quickly regained visibility, the gem back underneath his hat. He quickly used Aqua Tail to douse the fire before it got out of hand.

"Ahem, now then... that's just one of them. There's seven in all, and I need your help to collect them all. If you do so, you'll be handomsly rewarded with lots of gold, silver, etc etc."

"Listen, captain. I won't do it for gold or anything. Perhaps one of those spheres would be kind?" said Zap, interested.

"Well I'll help out, do you have any idea were the rest are." Said James

Shard smirked. "Like I said, 'The power to fetch a pretty price.' We can steal a lot of stuff with powers like that. I'm in."

He then looked around the table and noticed everyone who had showed up.

"Arrg. One question before we go, Sam. There seems to be a lot of pokemon willing to go on this voyage. How do we know you will be able to pay us what this job is worth?"

((I FIXED IT, OKAY?))

"After this whole thing ends, I'll think about it," Sam said to Zap.

"And I happen to know where most of them are. Unfortunaetly, most of them already belong to someone else. Good think we're pirates," he said to James.

Then Sam turned to Shard, "We'll you'll just have to do what few pirates can do: trust another pirate."

"Noramlly, you don't unless they have a hyper beam pointed at their throat. However, since ye were 'kind' enough to show us this one, and since ye'd have about a dozen pokemon after yer head if ye jipped us, I'll trust ye."

"Yar! That be a good deal, matey! Now enough chatter talk, we got some treasor to hunt! And be careful, there are some guards that'll swap the deck with ye if they find out what ya doin'" said Zap.

"WAIT FOR ME!!!!!!" Riolu screams."Please let me on,I can't go back to my master."

*Looking inside*
The stone of invisibility? They've already got one!

*I fly high up into the air again*

Seek out the most intelligent and long living of pokemon. They are most likely to know the locations and properties of the Rainbow Stones. Now this island to the west over here....

"Hold on pipsqueak, we haven't left yet. And sure, you can came along. Everyone who's going with me, follow me," Sam said. Then he got up from his seat and started to leave the bar. Or least, he tried to when a Medicham punched him in the face.

"Give me the stone," he ordered.

"And if I refuse?" Sam asked, still calm, but lying on the floor.

The Medicham didn't respond, but quickly drew out his sword and pointed it right in front of Sam.

Frost had watched the scene in the bar with wide eyes. He had heard of these Gems but never seen one. He went up and left after the other pirates did. He saw a medicham jump in front of the one they called Sam. He waited to see how these pokemon would handle themselves first before following or fighting the Navy pokemon.

I think there is a rainbow gem on this island. The Gem of Transparency, I recall. It cannot be seen by normal vision - You need clairvoyance, echolocation, or spacial vision to see it. Unofrtunately for me, I saw a Riolu among the pirates. He can see it too. Better get this done quickly.

*Swoops down to the island*

Peter had watched the display calmly without saying a word. Now he saw the mediate punch Sam, he slowly moved forward. "Your not be wanting to do that mate." He braces himself and bends his knees

Frost decided testing could coome later once he saw the navy members walk in. He quickly charged at the Poliwrath and knocking him off balance while firing an Ice Beam at the Medicham. He then stood and waited to see what everyone else would do.

"Well if it isn't my good friend Henry," the Medicham said sarcastically, not flinching at all even with a gun pointed at him. "What's a Navy Captain such as yerself doing in a place like this? No...wait...let me guess, the gem, right? Well too bad, because I'm getting it first," he finished, pointing at Sam.

Of course, Sam had just activated the stone during the distraction, so he was currently invisible and already sneaking out of the bar. "If you're coming with me," his voice spoke, "Meet me down by the docks, and fast! NOW RUN!"

Xander heard Sam yelling. He took the oppertunity to push several of the pirates out the door. "Everyone, quick, get to the docks!" he belloewd. "I'll hold them off for a bit - get the boat started, I can catch up!"

With that, he turned to face the Navy crew, and smirked. Ducking down, Xander got into his Rapid Spin, scythes out, and began Slashing away at random targets.
