It was cold. Lenora's breath came out as puff of smoke and she peered into her binoculars again. Why couldn't Brycen take this mission she thought. He would have been in his element at least. Unfortunately, her fellow gym leader was in a match at the moment. A trainer had called three weeks ahead for this challenge and the ice leader had refused to turn him down. This left Lenora as the only gym leader who had the necessary skills to finish the job. The "job" in question was an easy compared to some others. Infiltrate, eliminate, and obliterate. Get into the mountain facility and destroy any information they had, that was all. Below Lenora, who was perched on a ledge, stood a giant facility dedicated to team Plasma. It had been hidden well, deep in the mountain where almost no trainer ventured. She had never thought the problem with team Plasma would grow this large. First they were just a small organization that hoped people would release pokemon back into nature. Although an odd look on current affair the Unova council could not complain. There were no harmful riots and they did not force people to release their pokemon. They obtained all permission for their peaceful rallies and grew larger as time passed. The change happened faster than some could believe. Team plasma changed from a simple group with a unique idea to large than life army of thieves. There was no real trigger for the change and it still confused the elites what had caused it to occur. Bases were built in name of Team Plasma and fights broke out. The elite four and gym leaders were quick to end the disputes in the city, but the fights in the countryside's and mountains still continued. Pokemon and items of value alike were stolen. The threat was so large that the elite four had to gather the eight gym leaders and to direct them where to go. Lenora looked across the area again with her binoculars until her Watchog gave a small chirp. She lowered her binoculars and faced her prized pokemon.

"What did you see?"

Lenora nodded as she listened to her Watchog's chirps. It was as the intel said. Thirty-four guards on the outside, all with three pokemon or less, most likely lower level and hardly trained. Nothing a gym leader had to worry about. Lenora would have to be careful though. She had been told there were at least 150 guards, so another 116 guards were inside, and they could have better defenses. The person who gave intel in this case was none other than N. N has never expanded on his name, but he made up for this fact with the amount of intelligent he gave to the council. He had joined the council's intelligence squad earlier in their career and never had led them astray. He had been born with the unique ability to understand most pokemon instantaneously and this provided him an innumerable amount of resources and options. Patrat and Pidove would infiltrate a lab and bring back information and building layouts. Emolgas would cause blackouts so he could escape facilities and Drilburs would trip opponents as needed. N was truly and invaluable asset to their team. As N passed through her thoughts another individual came to mind. His real name was unknown and in reports his name was vigilante 001. His documented name though was Omega. He had been known to assist gym leaders on their missions numerous times. His alliances were unknown, but it was assumed that he disliked Plasma as much as the elites. As if sensing her thoughts her Stoutland gave a short ruff to gain her attention. A low growl emitted from its throat and Lenora nodded. Omega had apparently made an appearance as her Stoutland could smell him. This was in the plans of course. The elite four were not to be taken lightly. Their tactics were nearly infallible. They accounted from everything to freak weather to tripping and setting off an alarm. Factoring in the appearance of Omega was simple enough. Lenora felt calmer than she had. If Omega was already in the vicinity her mission had become laughably easy. Omega was efficient to the point that some gym leaders had to admit he was most likely equal to them in skill. Each gym leader has a certain set of skill that made them vital to the network. Lenora was the perfect scout. Although she could hold her own in battle, her skill sets shone in intelligence gathering. Both Stoutland and Watchog could detect enemy presences and gather information from long distances. Burgh was similar and used bugs to search the area till the time of attack. Skyla was the same as well except aerial, searching from the sky. Brycen was considered the only "assassin" of the group. Able to sneak inside any of the facilities unnoticed and eliminating the threat. Eliminate was a harsh word though. They never killed, only captured plasma members. Brycen could freeze all opponents in ice and continue like nothing had happened. Elesa, Clay and Drayden were all notable for their undisputable attack strength. The forces of team plasma were weak as it was but Drayden's dragons were slightly overkill. Even Iris helped him from time to time and their teamwork was unstoppable. The last of the gym leaders were the three brothers of the first gym. Surprisingly, the three had a large range of skill. Chili was a demolition expert and knew where to place bombs and explosives for the most damage. Cilan was an efficient tactician and strategist and lead his brothers throughout their missions. Cress was a trap expert and knew how to disarm traps as well as set them. Overall the gym leaders were a force to be reckoned with. Lenora lowered her binoculars and released her Herdier from its pokeball. It gave a short bark and Lenora, along with her pokemon, descended from the ledge. As silently as she could manage, Lenora made her way to the base, hiding as she crept closer. Once she was 100 yards away from the base she beckoned for the attention of her three pokemon.

"Stoutland and Watchog, I will give you both free reign, if you find the control room destroy it." She whispered. "Herdier, you are with me."

The Pokemon nodded at their orders and Lenora handed both Stoutland and Watchog their pokeball respectively. In the times of crisis, the elite four along with Bill, the pc's system creator, created a fail-safe system for pokemon. To explore bases at peak efficiency the trainer and the pokemon had to split up. This could potentially lead to large problems. Although the pokemon could not be recaptured in a pokeball, the pokemon could faint or be captured in another device. This could ruin a mission and even worse lead to the capturing of a gym leader. Therefore, the fail-safe system was created. If a pokemon felt they were in danger of fainting or being captured, they would be able to escape inside their pokeball. The pokeball would then be immediately transported to their owners PC. The major disadvantage to this was that the gym leader would have one less pokemon.

Lenora signaled and the three groups broke off. Lenora charge at a surprised Plasma member and tacked him, knocking him out. Herdier used a tackle attack on another member and the two rushed inside. The facility was similarly built to the ones Lenora had infiltrated before. Stainless steel walls lined the hallways each hall looking exactly like the next. The lights on the wall gave each hallway a uniform glow and Lenora could only wonder how they didn't lose themselves within their own base. As Lenora and her partner approach an intersection, another patrol spotted them and had enough time to release their pokemon, a Munna and a Lillipup. Lenora wasted no time and commanded the attack.

"Use bite on Munna and then bounce back and use Retaliate on Lillipup!"

Herdier immediately leapt into action and bite the Munna causing it to faint and jumped back to catch the Lillipup off guard and took it down in one attack. While her Herdier was taking the pokemon out, Lenora took the human down. A swift kick to the first was enough and a punch to the second finished the job. The member dropped like rock and Lenora turned to continue forward. A she did so, she came face to face with Omega. Well, more accurately, face to hood. From what the reports said, Omega was known for keeping his face a secret. Omega was dressed in a black cloak his face hooded. Black pants covered his legs and black gloves completed his uniform. Lenora had to hold back a laugh every time she saw him. Omega must have an obsession with black. Omega pointed to his right.

"The control room is down in this direction. Take a left after the fifth intersection and get to the end of the hall. The access code is 356214."

As he spoke, another patrol further along the corridor saw them and shouted.

"Intruders! Send up the alarm!"

As the Plasma members turned to flee, Omega raised his hand towards them and snapped his fingers. All three dropped to the ground. Lenora knew from previous reports and experiences that Omega used hypnosis to stop his opponents, although his methods were still unknown. The highest likelihood was his partner was a psychic type pokemon, who use the attack remotely on command, such as snapping his finger. Omega once again faced the gym leader.

"I am headed to the Southern side of the base to release the pokemon kept in their storage unit. Alert me over their communications systems when you have finished. I will evacuate then."

Lenora simply nodded. As much as she hated taking orders, Omega usually did not talk often enough to give out orders. That aside his "orders" were basically her previous orders. Find the control room and delete the files. Omega turned and ran off. Lenora took the opposite direction and as she raced down the hallways, she came across hordes of fallen pokemon and people. All seemed to be sleeping, Omega must have been busy. She met no further resistance as she counted the hallways to the control room. If she had to give credit to Plasma, it was for making the labs different every time. The labs all look the same but the entire layout was different. Herdier gave a short bark and stopped at the door at the end of the hall. Lenora pressed the green light to the side and it opened with a small hiss. The pair walked in to find the majority of the members inside on the ground sleeping. The minority were laying on the control monitors. Lenora quickly pulled put a flash drive and went to the computer. She had to give Elesa credit. Aside from being spectacular gym leader and also a famous model, she was a world class hacker. The flash drive Lenora held was filled with programs and viruses to destroy any computer mainframe. Lenora pushed a fallen Plasma to the side and placed in the entry code. She quickly pushed in the flash drive and unloaded the file to the computer. Quickly typing in her commands, Lenora pressed the enter key and immediately the screen showed several doors to the lab closing. Lenora grabbed a nearby mic and flipped it on.

"Omega, I have closed all the doors aside from the south. I set the timer to 15 minutes. Exit immediately."

Her message sent, she raced out of the control room and to the south exit. The commands she placed into the main computer were simple yet effective. Closing all the gates except the south was step one. The southern gate would follow suit 15 minutes later to seal all the plasma members inside. Officers would evacuate the trapped plasma members 12 hours later. Finally the computer would have a complete lockdown for 24 hours. If anyone tried to force their way in the system would delete all files. It had occurred to Lenora that if she wanted to trap Omega inside she could have ignored telling him, but he was known for having plan B's. She reasoned that being on Omega's good side was not as bad as his bad side. As she approached the exit a pile of Plasma members who had tried to escape greeted her. Omega must have continually put them to sleep as they came. Both Stoutland and Watchog were waiting as well. Lenora exited the building and returned her pokemon to their respective pokeballs leaving her Herdier out. The timer clicked down to zero and the door slammed shut sealing the plasma members inside. She faced the cloaked figure standing beside her.

"Well? What are you going to do now? Lenora asked.

"That hardly matters," Omega replied, "make sure the members inside don't starve."

With that he reached inside his cloak and revealed a pokeball. Upon opening it, Staraptor appear and screeched at the sky.

"Staraptor let's go" Omega leap onto the giant bird's back and the pair flew off.

Lenora looked to her Herdier and spoke.

"You think he is more of an asset or a liability?"

Her Herdier gave a sort gruff growl causing Lenora to smile.

"Yeah, I think so too."

"So that's your report?"

Lenora nodded as Ghetsis shuffled through a few more of the papers. After Omega had left, Skyla had picked up Lenora from the mountains and returned them to their base of operations. Lenora had proceeded to Ghetsis' office for the standard post mission report. Ghetsis was one of the head members of the Unova council and was in charge of Plasma demolition and damage prevention. He was presented as a man of morals but something about him seemed off. Nothing seemed to faze the man, no matter how surprising the outcome of the mission. He never flinched.

"I see you met vigilante 001, did you follow protocol?"

Lenora sighed then responded, "No, I did not attempt to capture nor did I attempt to injury Omega. Ghetsis, that man is helping us and making our missions easier. Why would you want to turn on us?"

Ghetsis quickly looked at Lenora with a sharp glare that made her shutter. "We do not know his alliances. For all we know he may be working as one of them, a spy who changes sides when the elites attack the base. If he is taken out of the equation there would be less trouble for the region as a whole." Lenora gave Ghetsis a disbelieving look and Ghetsis continued. "Don't you find it suspicious that he finds bases in the middle of nowhere that only N himself can find? He has joined several if not all of our agents at least once during a mission. For a vigilante he knows far too many things, and we know far too little about him. I suggested this protocol for the safety of Unova."

Once Ghetsis had finish his speech, Lenora left the room the way she had entered doubting the fact Omega could be a threat.

A/N Great another story about an overpowered OC that is the greatest in the world. I hope you give this story a chance though. This chapter, like many first chapters, is for introduction and has little room for character growth. In the following chapters you will see "Omega" in a more human aspect, and not some OC in a black cloak. I am sure many of you can see the conflict already brewing, and I urge you tell me what you think, not only plot wise but story wise as well. Is the way I write interesting or is it boring and dull? I will reflect back on the review people write, and hopefully make a better story for all.
