As conclusive to our story. I wanted to add a few drabbles that didn't quite make it into the mainstream, or got cut out. Here they are: the deleted scenes.

This was supposed to be how Kate goes all wild on Keith when he keeps avoiding her, and then poor Basil and Ben go missing. Keith visits Hans at the news office to avoid Kate, and Kate then goes to the office herself.

"Hello, miss," The receptionist beamed at her. Kate smiled back.

"Um, I have a question to ask," She began. "Have you seen a redheaded Ranger here today?"

"Oh, him?" The lady tried to remember. "Um, yes, he went to speak with Hans the reporter, and he just left a while ago. He came in with a bunch of newspaper issues… I'm sorry if that wasn't helpful."

"Oh, no," Kate shook her head. "It's fine. Thank you, though."

She exited the office, only to run into a moving stack of newspaper, she fell down, and her head must have been hit by rolls of paper by the time she was flat on the floor.

"Ah!" A voice gasped, alarmed. "S-sorry, Kate!"

She looked up, and saw just the person she was looking for.

"K-Keith…" She got up to her feet. She looked at the many rolls of newspaper on the floor. The redhead laughed nervously.

"Oh, um…" He said. "I asked Hans to do something for me, so I had to return the favor and deliver some newspaper just now. Apparently all the usual guys are out, so…"

Kate could only gawk at Keith. She still remembered yesterday, and just a few hours ago. Was this the same Keith who walked into the lab so calmly, and the one who snapped at her for just asking what he was dealing with. She grit her teeth, her gaze falling upon the nearby houseplant. So… he was just like her… they've all changed… and…

"… Kate?"

"Hm?" Kate snapped out of her stupor. And then her face scrunched up into rage.

With a quick snap, his back hit the floor. He pushed himself back up, massaging his throbbing head.

"Ow…" He moaned. "What the hell-"

"You… damn idiot!" Kate shouted at him. Her fist was drawn, and she looked ready to pounce on him and punch him again. She didn't, and he found the opportunity to scramble up onto his feet.

"Kate…"

A loud clap, and he was staggering back, his face even redder. Kate had landed the second blow. By now she must have caught the attention of nearly everyone in the square. Not like she really cared at the moment, though. Keith tried to get up, only to be hoisted up by the collar by the girl with such unexpected strength. She then threw another fist at him, but at his stomach this time. The redhead gasped, and she slung him onto the grass. Thank goodness it was the grass, and not the pavement. Kate was towering over him, and she wasn't going to back away.

"You…" She knelt down, closer. "STUPID-"

A hand then flew up to her mouth, and she stopped talking. Keith held his index finger across his mouth.

"We're in public," he whispered. "You're getting the whole town's attention."

Kate looked up and noticed that everyone was gasping, hands over their mouths in shock. She then

"You didn't tell me anything," Kate sobbed. "Now Basil and his friend is gone! You think I'm fine?"

"I-I'm sorry…" Keith said, and he

"Damn idiot…" Kate whispered, and Keith didn't say anything as he helped her up, forgetting the numerous newspapers sitting on the floor.

This was supposed to be placed on the epilogue of the story. Then I got lazy, and didn't bother to put it in. Also, they mentioned Kate too casually, and it doesn't really show that they really miss her and are sad about it. Also, it does hint to what will happen in the next part of the story. Well, Basil shouldn't be so worried, but even so…

The sun was beating ominously on the

"Kate…" Ben noted, and he held up the tonfas in question, and swung it forward. A sense of pride surged through him, and he looked up to the sky as he settled down on to the grass. He'll find her eventually, and one day, they'll be fighting evil side by side as student and teacher, just like he dreamed.

"You're as energetic as ever, Ben."

Ben looked up to see his best friend walking towards him across the lawn. The boy was still attending Ranger School, but he already applied for the non-specialized program. From what he remembered, Basil was planning to make a large tech company to help Pokemon and people. It was a big ambition, but with a genius like Basil, it was possible.

"Hey, Basil," Ben grinned, and Basil came to sit next to him, a book in his hand. Ben gave a small peek at the title. Dictionary of World Emblems…?

"Are you going to keep at this every day, Ben?" Basil asked him, snapping the boy out of his thoughts. "It's good that your studies are much better, and you're like in number five in the class… but… are you sure with what you want to do?"

"Of course!" Ben said. "I'm going to help Keith find Kate, and then we'll clear her name."

His friend gave a reassuring smile, and then the two of them sat on the green lawn in silence. They were both third years now, and they'll be graduating in the following year.

"Have you ever got any contact with Kate ever?" Ben asked furtively, but Basil shook his head.

"No," he muttered. "I haven't heard from her since she last visited."

"By the way, Ben," Basil changed the subject. "Have you heard about that internship program they're giving to our class?"

"What program?" Ben was curious.

"The Ranger Internship Program," the light haired brunette smiled. "If you're in the top eleven of the class, you get an offer to work alongside a Top Ranger as an apprentice of sorts as soon as you graduate. You get to work in the field. It's pretty dangerous, but it's worth it, considering what you're going for."

"As soon as you graduate…" Ben muttered, and then nodded promptly. "I'll do that."

He raised the tonfas Kate had given to him, and he smiled widely.

This was supposed to be at the very very end, and it shows a "Nail" version of what could have happened. What if Kate said no, and refused to follow Tobias. What if she had been more defiant? This was before I thought of giving Tobias any reason to ask Kate to be his student, so back then, he just chose and trained Kate for fun (I know, bad reason, huh…). Back then, I made Tobias look like a total jerk (he's not getting any better, though).

A gunshot rang out, and a small thud on the dirt resounded. A pool of blood bloomed from the pistol's latest victim, and she gave a few drawing breaths before they stopped altogether. The long haired man put away the gun in disappointment. Such a young life wasted for his enjoyment, such an opportunity taken to find a successor. She could have been much more than this lying heap of nothing.

If only she didn't say no and tried to run away.

"You disgust me," He muttered and left the corpse in the beating sun.

A/N: I might add things here and then into the story although it's complete. Hopefully, I can make a separate story for drabbles. I have other Pokemon Ranger stories written and posted somewhere online. They used to be here, but they were so old, I just took them down and posted them elsewhere, well on my backup account. Those who are interested in seeing my primitive stages of writing fanfiction, the link to my alternate website for fanfiction is ready for clicking. Most of the old PR stories are tied to a different series I created, so I just compiled them into a series tag under Mystery Storyline...

Now that's over, I would like to say that the sequel has already been launched. First chapter already up, so if you were anticipating the sequel, here's your chance to see it for yourself! Once again, thank very much for your support, and I guess this couldn't have been done without everyone.
