That night...

The rest of the team stood behind me and Steven, and I turned and faced them. Stammer did the same. I looked to Steven and said,"Its your team, they'll believe you." As I motioned to them.

He started to tell the whole story, and Strike perked up when he was mentioned. "We need to find a way to go back in time. Corey mentioned needing the element of electricity, which has led me to believe that we need all elements of Pokemon. Which I'm sure we have." He stated.

"How do you make a time travel device with just Pokemon? And do these devices even exist?" Vladdy asked. Molniya, his Eevee, barked in approval.

"That's our problem. I do have a thought, but I doubt it would work." I replied quietly.

"What's your idea then?" Cally asked, looking from Stammer to me.

"I- I saw this a very long time ago, but it's also just a theory. It includes one of each element of Pokemon stand in a circle and attack one certain spot. The attack causes a small sphere to drop, that being the time travel device." I replied,"But I guess it's true, considering what Corey said."

"But- how.. How can we believe those nasty Habs? Seemingly all they have to say are dirty lies." TJ said. Joltson looked up in approval. Stammer glanced down, back up again and said," That's our problem. And the risk is something I'm willing to take to protect the honor of the Stanley Cup. If we want to protect this honor, we have to do this as a team."

"I'm risking my life over a some petty thing like that. Not happening. We can just win another one this year. We're off to a good start already." TJ snapped. Joltson yapped in approval, as a quick spark of electricity bounced off his fur. Palat looked up from the ground and said,"So you're just asking for those bastards in Montreal to stomp all over our 2004 victory? To steal it for themselves? Sounds like a dumb idea to me. If we win again this year, then we'll have two Stanley Cups. How does that sound?"

"It sounds great- just I don't want you to risk your life over this. That's a terrible idea. And didn't Danika say that all of this was just a theory? Montreal just wants us to look like fools Pally. I can't do this." TJ replied in a quieter tone. It was silent for what felt like hours, and the tensions rose from then on. "If none of you want to do this, all we'll need is your help to make this device. Return here in this parking lot tomorrow at noon. Then will we attempt this. If you will go back in time to save our honor of victory, stand by me and Danika, if not, stay where you are standing." Stammer stated, to try and avoid any other arguments. Only one person walked to join Steven and I. That person was Pally. His Flareon followed behind, and stood by his side. He stood defiantly like Stammer and I. The air tightened.

"You may go now. Please return here at noon." Steven said quietly. As he finished, one of the other equipment people strolled out and shouted,"Danika! I think you left your bag in here!"

"I'll be there in a minute!" I shouted back, and quickly said to Stammer,"I'll be here tomorrow." He nodded in response, as I made my way back through Amalie to my office. Strike followed close behind. I had left my bag there, which had been knocked over. It also seemingly had been looked through. The hell? Who would look through my bag? I thought, looking at my old, and pretty worn out bag. I sighed and grabbed the bag anyways, and walked out. I was just a step out the door when I realized I left a Pokeball on my desk. I grabbed it and stuffed the ball in my bag. Again, I walked out.
