Prologue
Feet slam against the wooden panels as a tirade of cloned uniforms and guns storm the halls, each ready to receive their next instructions. They stood in organised lines as their unidentifiable faces looked to the large screen adoring the plain plastered wall. The only sound that of eager anticipation of the new recruits. A flash opened up the screen revealing a sturdily built man sat straight with elbows perched on either chair arm, both connected by the adjoining of hands sat centre of the scene. No face could be interpreted as the shadows swallowed much of his figure yet it was unspoken knowledge that this was a man to be reckoned with.
In greetings to the appearance of their superior a unison of orchestrated salutes performed gratitude that could only build up their boss' confidence.
An unnamed commander strides forward, arms behind back as he addresses their leader.
"Sir." A smirk appeared on the superiors face, unbeknownst to the troops of men. "The men are trained, the equipment is ready and nobody is any the wiser. I assume we will have the orders to continue forward with your plan?"
Silence.
Until finally he spoke; "we shall-" the lingering tension causes many to hold their breath, awaiting some kind of appreciation. But none is received. "However-" no solider was bold enough to express their sincerest disappointment. "We have more pressing matters to take care of first." At this even the commander was baffled. For years this plan had been commencing, perfected by the most brilliant of minds, as hours upon hours of hard labour went into the creation of the idea- yet now something is more important than all of the above? The commander would have thought it impossible if it had not seen it come from the Boss' lips himself.
"Sir?"
"In order to make this plan a success there is a-" he scoured for the right term but their wasn't a single word that could capture his utter contemptment at even the mere thought of those beings- "contamination that if not legitimately contained will be our downfall." Still confusion plagued the half masked faces of the crowd. Only the commander was daring enough to voice his bewildered thoughts on this so-called contamination.
"A contamination, sir?"
"Indeed. And to halt this infection I will need our best men. They will put an end to our problem and then, and only then, will we show the world the unstoppable and ruthless power we now behold. Understood?" Hundreds of mouths opened as one strong chant of understanding overpowered any lingering silence. "Good- commander?"
"Yes, sir?"
"More details will be sent to you. I expect the best results. I will not accept any form of failure. Your job is on the line- if not more. Ensure that the job is carried out." And without any form of goodbye the screen shut down leaving a cold reticence contrary to the masses of troops filtering from the grand hall. Leaving only a few commanders, all masking their pity at their frozen comrade for they were team rocket and team rocket knew nothing of sympathy or empathy...
[A/N:] Look whose back! Long time no see? Okay, first of all I feel like I really need to apologise. I promised to rewrite this after my ego shipping series but I guess due to lack of inspiration I sort of didn't? And then I got caught up in another Pokeshipping sort and, well, forgot... I know, I'm a bad person- I'm sorry! I hope you can forgive me? I guess I didn't realise it had been this long until sakuraangel95 reviewed recently (thank you!). I'm genuinely sorry and I understand if the wait has put you off reading this second interpretation. Secondly I need to thank all you amazing guys, even if your choosing not to continue reading it rally meant a lot that you stuck with the last version especially if you reviewed, and of you're sticking with this new draft then you're honestly amazing.
So for those of you who have forgiven me (if any), this will be a bit different, I will warm you, one of the things you may notice is that this has an prologue :o I know, right? Shocking... So yeah, there's a few differences but all that means is that I have a clear plot line which I didn't have before.
Oh, and don't worry this is just an prologue the chapter WILL be longer!
Last thing, I'm going to, for the first time ever, set myself a 'review goal' not the type where I expect so many reviews to write a new chapter but rather one where its measuring the reviews count at the end. So this review goal is based on the fact that my egoshipping fic received 78 reviews which, for a simple seventeen year old college girl like myself, is pretty unfathomable. It would mean so much if we could reach even just 79. Think of it as a ego vs. poke thing of you want but either way it would be amazing to get higher, if possible.
Is this cheeky of me? I feel like this is cheeky of me... Is it? I don't know... I'm going to go... THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO ME BABBLE ON :D
Till next time?
