Chapter 1

She could feel someone approaching the window of her bedroom; she feigned sleep as a stranger slipped through the window. Her hand griped the dagger under her pillow.

The person walked softly towards her bed. Behind her closed eyes the world was blue, the person next to her glowed white. As a hand reach down she shot up, eyes still closed and stabbed the arm that was about to grab her. The person let out a small hiss of pain as blood flowed out from his forearm. It dripped onto the floor staining the nice carpet a deep red.

She turned away from the injured man and made a run for the door, her hand just barely touch the doorknob when someone grabbed her from behind, flicking on her aura vision she saw three people in the room including the one she injured.

"You cause us no small amount of pain girl," the man behind her whispered in her ear as he pulled her arms together and up behind her back. That was the last thing she heard before a chop to the back of her neck sent her into unconsciousness.

"Hand me the rope," said the man holding the now still girl. Another one threw him a coiled rope; he then tied up the girl's arms and legs. Then he threw the four-year-old over his shoulder.

"Let's go," said the injured man, they move to the window and jumped, three large bird pokemon caught them and they sped off into the night.

OOooOooOO

He had just been let out of the tube and back into his cell when more grunts entered the area. One was carrying a small blonde girl younger than him. She wasn't moving and didn't even flinch as she was thrown on the floor. The grunts left soon after with just the usual guards outside the only door in the hallway of cells. It was a while before the girl opened her eyes and slowly sat up rubbing her head.

"Are you okay?" The boy asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine," she slowly stood up and made her way to the bars surrounding the front of the cell. "Where is this place?"

"Team Rocket's science branch headquarters," the boy said.

"Did they bring you here too?" The boy nodded. "How long of you been here?"

"Four months I think. Haven't really been counting. My name is Tajiri Satoshi, from Pallet town, what about you?"

"Alderon Saki, from Cameron Palace in Rota."

"Palace?"

"Yes, my mom is the queen."

"A princess!" Satoshi felt like his brain exploded. Team Rocket had kidnapped a princess. This would be all over the news. Maybe someone would find them.

"Shh, someone's coming," Saki, said with her eyes closed. Not a second later the door opened and four grunts walked in. His eyes widen when he saw for long needles appear in each of Saki's hands. Before anyone could do anything the four shot out like bullets, one flew towards a side of each grunt's neck and punctured the skin. All of them collapsed like puppets with their strings cut.

Another group of grunts ran in and met the same fate. When there was no sign of more guards Saki's arm started to glow blue and with strength he could only imagine she bent bars of the cage enough to fit her small frame through. She grabbed the key ring off one of the grunts and unlocked his cage. He stepped out and grabbed her hand, pulling her towards the door that opened into a narrow hallway. They were running for about a minute when the alarm went off. They took a sharp turn as a large group of grunts ran towards them in the hallway. They were almost at the end of the hallway when two vines wrapped around them and lifted them off the floor. They struggled in mid air as a man (not a grunt) in a lab coat and a Venusaur walked towards them. The vines of the Venusaur kept them suspended.

"Now, now, what do we have here? Looks like we found the naughty children, Venusaur. And all naughty children must be punished," the man turned around and walked into another room. One that Satoshi knew all too well. The three glass tubes were a giveaway. Satoshi struggled even more in an effort to escape. The Venusaur placed Saki on one of the platforms after the tube lifted up. Two metal shackles came up and snapped her wrist to the platform as the tube descended on top of her. Satoshi watched in horror as it clicked signifying it had locked to the base and the green liquid began to fill the tube. Even though her hands were still shackled, Saki struggled to keep her head above the water level. As soon as she had barely enough room to keep her head above the water the shackles released and she stood up trying vainly to keep above the rising water. He watched her struggle as it closed in around her head as it filled to the top. The sedatives in the water kicked in as she swallowed the solution when she couldn't hold her breath any longer.

"Saki," he whispered into despair. Although he had just met the girl that have been the closest he had been to escaping.

"You're next," said the scientist and he felt himself moved over to the second tube. He tried to struggle but he was exhausted. He just got out of this thing and then ran for 10 minutes. He was lifeless as the green liquid fluid up around him, not bothering at trying to keep ahead of it. He had learned that there is no hope if the tube sealed. He wasn't going to get out unless someone unlocked it from the outside. He swallowed the water and he was out.
