"Fun, fun, fun, fun... Looking forward to the weekend... It's Friday, Friday, getting down on Friiidaaayyyyyy!"
<You got the lyrics wrong.>
"No I didn't!"
Alyssa Fay was galloping down a stone path, her Voltorb trailing behind her. A giant building loomed over them, and she didn't really seem to mind, care, or notice. Eureka, however, was clearly annoyed with her.
<For the love of Pachirisu, just stop singing that damn song!>
Gasping, Alyssa giggled. "Don't swear- WAIT. You live a Pachirisu? AWWW! That's so cute!" She switched from galloping to skipping.
<What? No! It's an expression!> Eureka scowled, staring at the girl.
"Don't deny it! Aww you're blushing! You're so red! She apparently loved poking fun at her pokemon.
<All Voltorb's- WOAH.> Eureka had noticed the building, even when Alyssa hadn't. It stopped in it's tracks to look up, making Alyssa stop as well.
Despite Eureka's protest, they walked inside slowly, unsure of what they were about to witness or do.
"Ace Academy, huh? I wanna join!" Eureka growled, scared for not just him but for her. No one can get that stupid in 14 years.

She looked friendly, fun, and just good to be around as he witnessed from the inside of the building as he creeped on the outside. When she walked in, he could not help but get up and introduce himself. She was kind of cute and very quirky. But she was a bit young for him so he wouldn't be able to kill two birds with one stone. He'd just have to kill one bird because she wasn't his type. But hey, the mission was to get recruits, so why not try now? He saw the Voltorb and smiled, he liked seeing trainers with their pokemon out. He himself had Toothless around, just hanging out and making a fool of herself while she was at it. She was his first baby and she had since become his strongest pokemon. He looked up at Alyssa and quickly went over to introduce himself and speak to her, Toothless though stayed behind and did not follow. "Hi, my name is Samuel Robins. I am one of the administrators of Ace Academy. What brings you here? And what is your name?" He asked Alyssa as he extended his hand for her to shake. Toothless was busy enjoying the new building and the new scenery herself. She liked that it was out of Cheyenne. There was a lot more space for her to roam around, and a lot of space for her to perfect her attacks, without causing a catastrophe. ::Salamence:: Out and about. Doing lord knows what

The place certainly was giving Eureka the creeps. But Alyssa didn't really seem worried at all. She watched as a man stood up and introduced himself as Samuel Robins. Alyssa shook his hand, a smile plastered on her face.
"I'm Alyssa Fay. Nice to meet you!" Just as she was releasing his hand, she noticed a Salamence watching quietly. She jumped, Eureka laughing at her shock. Shaking it off, she continued, "Well, I wanted to enroll at the Academy here!" It sounds like fun! Can I?"
If Eureka had hands, it would facepalm. Oh yes it would. Many times. <Boss, are you sure this is a good idea?> It whispered, trying to get her attention. <Do you really know what you're getting yourself into?> It could try to stop her. Though it probably wouldn't work.
Alyssa nodded. "Of course I do! It'll be FUN!"
<At least ask Sugar then.> The Woobat would definitely be on Alyssa's side, but it was worth a try.
Alyssa laughed. "You know she'll be on my side though!" She didn't even bother pulling out the pokeball and releasing the pokemon. She wouldn't listen to the electric type.
She looked back to Sam, eyes shining like she had been laughing. Which she had. "Sorry about that."

Everyone could join. Everyone was allowed to be a recruit for Ace Academy as the organization was welcoming of all. It was only after they finished their first mission that they became a member. Technically permanent although Ace had a different mentality than Team Death, thus they would allow someone to quit if they really chose to do so. Although... Why quit? It was so chill, so lax, so free. Why in the world would one quit? Unless they had a change of heart and a change in ideology... That could always happen.
He then noticed her talking to her own pokemon and smiled. He wished he had the bond with all of his pokemon like that. She seemed to be a great fit already having the bond in such a early journey. She also seemed to understand pokespeech, that was very impressive... Since he did not speak a lick of it. Although he did pick up on gestures at times, especially with pokemon he had for a while.
He gave a look at Toothless who yawned when she saw Sam and he then gave her a quick hand gesture and she flew away to hang out for the time being, preoccupying herself with other businesses.
"So... Of course you can join. But do you want to know anything about the organization first? Or rather... What do you think you are getting yourself into?" He asked. It was nice to see what people thought before he gave them the entire story.

Sam seemed pretty pleased that Alyssa wanted to join. Was that a good thing? Eureka didn't seem to think so, but Alyssa seemed O.K. with it. After all, it must be part of his job to get recruits. So she could help him with that, couldn't she?
Toothless flew away, making both Alyssa and Eureka feel less vulnerable. The Slalamence was huge, and if they were to get Sam angry, they wouldn't stand a chance. Even still he could call it back, but it would be slower than just telling it to launch an attack.
She could join! Alyssa smiled at that, but he was still talking. What did she want to know? Eureka had just asked her if she knew what she was getting into, and that's what he had just asked her.
"Well..."Stalling, stalling. What can I say? Stalling, stalling... Ooh! I got a beat there! Stalling, stalling st-t-talling... FOCUS."I know it'll be fun, and help me train my pokemon! And... Yeah."
Eureka would pipe up for her, despite the fact that it was still angry at her, but it had a feeling that this Sam guy didn't understand anything it was saying in the first place.
Alyssa reached down and patted Eureka on the head as she could tell it was frustrated. "A-And we can meet new people and help Cheyenne! Yeah, that's it!" She hadn't meant to say the last part out loud. Oopsies.
Eureka, however, was still trying to help her out. <Yeah, help Cheyenne!> But Sam wouldn't understand what it had said.

It wasn't wrong but she did not have all the details yet about the organization. But that was fine! Today was the grand opening, in order to get recruits for Ace Academy and she was here for that specific purpose. He could clear up the common misconceptions she had and also get her the pokemon she wanted... It all would be fine and dandy, and he honestly enjoyed explaining the mission statement. She could join regardless of if she agreed with it or not. As Ace did not reject anyone (or basically did not reject anyone). But it'd be nice for her to know what exactly she was getting herself into. "Your points... They aren't wrong. But we are a bit more than that." He started before he took a break and drank some water. "So. The Mission of Ace is to help Cheyenne grow and be self-sufficient. We are an academy, we want to raise the future members of Cheyenne to be able to take care of themselves and imbue the right work ethics for them to succeed." He continued. "One of the main misconceptions is that we are here to take down Team Death. That is not the case, we just have a different ideology. We believe everyone deserves a shot at being a trainer. And we believe that winning is not everything, as people can get stronger and get experience from losses also." He stopped after, making sure if she was keeping up or not. "Our mascot is the Unown. It represents exactly what this organization is. We are accepting and welcoming of all, just like an Unown. And we get stronger with more experience, just like Unown's do." He said. Just then one flew right across them, as if it was fated or something... ::Unown:: Flew by us

ALYSSA FAY Poor Alyssa was making a fool of herself. What else was new? She didn't something embarrassing at least once a day. Here was today's.
She wasn't wrong? Really? But... More than that?
She listened attentively to Sam's story, actually staying still for once. Eureka was rolling back and forth just the slightest. Wait until Sugar heard about this. She would be pretty mad... What? No she won't. Who was it kidding?
Alyssa, meanwhile, was still following and thinking. Help trainers? "But what if I want to be a coordinator?" Phooey. What if she wouldn't be able to join because of that? What had she done?
Unown? Alyssa had heard of it. Once, from her dad. One of the people at work with him had one. He was the only one, and everyone wanted to see it for themselves.
Alyssa's thoughts were broken as an Unown flew by, and she let out a squeal. "EEP- Hey! It's an A! Like 'Alyssa'!" She giggled, clearly amused with her own joke. Eureka rolled forward, as if facepalmig with the ground. Now it knew what it could do in times like this. And the other person wouldn't see it's face either. Just perfect.

"Coordinators, trainers, both are allowed. I have a ribbon and a few badges. I have given both a try." He said to her to reassure her than Ace is welcoming of all type of individuals. "I say trainers as in pokemon trainers, people who have pokemon. But that is wrong too. Ace wouldn't alienate from someone who doesn't own pokemon either. Because that is not right. Maybe he doesn't own a pokemon but he has many friends that he can call upon at times." He said to her, but then realized he was simply going off on a tangent.
"Anyways. Yes, like A the Unown. It might look weak but with due time it will grow stronger just like Ace and just like Cheyenne. And our mission is to continue that."
"So, are you interested in joining? Helping our mission? Helping the cause? Spread Ace Academy and make it what it can be?" He asked Alyssa.
If so, she would be in and could be on her way to becoming an Ace member very soon...

ALYSSA FAY She could still join as a coordinator? Yay! Alyssa didn't really know any people in Cheyenne who didn't have a pokemon, but then again, she didn't know many people in Cheyenne in general. His would be her chance to meet more!
Growing stronger sounded like a good mission to her. The Unown seemed pretty cute, and Alyssa would be ok with seeing them more often. She had never actually seen the one that her dad had seen, because that was the day that... Never mind.
Realizing that she had let her thoughts wander, she turned her attention back to Sam, who was in mid-question. Did she want to join?
Did she? Of course she did. Did Eureka? Probably not. Maybe she should take out Sugar and ask her herself. With the new thought in her mind, she muttered, "Just a second..." and dug into her bag for Sugar's pokeball. When she finally found it, she released the Woobat, who immediately went to launch herself at Alyssa's hair, as usual. "Not right now. I want your opinion!" Sugar hadn't even noticed Sam until this point but flew into Alyssa's arms and listened.
Alyssa explained the situation quickly and Eureka's opinions. Eureka and Sugar didn't always see eye-to-eye, but it would be ok to have a small miracle. "So... What do you think?"
Sugar didn't even think for a second. <Let's do it!> She squeaked.
Alyssa nodded happily and looked to Eureka, who had stayed silent. "You okay with that, buddy?" She asked. She didn't want to make him upset. But the majority wanted to join.
<Eh... Do whatever makes you two happy. Just no singing.>
Alyssa laughed and finally turned back to Sam after patting Eureka on the head. "We'll join!"

He liked having people who were 100% sure, but he also accepted anyone who wanted to be a part of team so it wasn't a huge deal for him. Instead, he just led her to the room with the large book for people who have signed to become recruits of Ace Academy so far.
"So, all you have to do is sign here and you will be done. You won't be an official member until you complete your first mission though." He said as he waited for her to do so. After that, she was free to go...
