"Let's go Gengar!"
"Chew 'em up Arbok!" Two girls shouted as they hurled their pokéballs into the air. With a flash of light the two pokémon they named stood before them, more than ready to fight. These two girls were Anna and Rose, not in any way above average. They were just two trainers on their way to Olivine who happened to spot a couple of Team Rocket grunts causing trouble at a nearby ranch. Rose knew her Gengar was bored, and figured that making these two go away would be plenty to occupy him. And, as always, Anna was more than happy to join in, what else did they have to do? As the grunts saw it though, they were just two girls who ran up to them, challenged them to a match, and threw their pokémon out. Both of them were more than annoyed at this point, which would only make a battle more interesting.
"Hey brats, this isn't some stupid kid battle, get lost!" said one of the grunts with a scowl.
"Common Wane, let's battle em', show them what happens when they mess with Team Rocket," the other grunt replied
"Fine, you'll both regret this, because after this battle we'll be taking your silly Pokémon!"
"Go Raticate!"
"Houndour show them whose boss!"
Said Pokémon landed in front of the grunts, the Rocket Pokémon turning to face the two girl's Pokémon.
Raticate and Arbok glared at each other hissing, and while Houndour growled viciously at Gengar, though Gengar only smiled its mischievous smile, which was just as anticipating in a way. Just as a grunt opened his mouth to yell and attack...
"Hey Rose, sorry to interrupt the "intense battle moment", but if we're going to double battle will your Gengar work with my Pokémon this time?" Anna suddenly said.
"Anna he doesn't even cooperate with me. Though I'm sure if he's just kicking these guys around, Gengar will put up with it..." she said starring down at the ghost Pokémon.
Gengar just looked at Rose, smiled, and turned back to look at Houndour, only to have the fire dog Pokémon glaring at him only inches away!
"Houndour, Flamethrower!"
Before Gengar could even react, flame shot out of Houndour's mouth engulfing Gengar in fire. Anna cried out in alarm, only to be surprised as Rose calmly stood and watched. Only a couple seconds later did she see why, when the flame finally stopped and Gengar stood, a bit burnt but not as hurt as expected from a direct hit.
"Wha?" The grunts exclaim, "That was a direct hit!"
Anna with an equally 'WTH?' look on her face, turned to Rose only to see her with a very evil grin on her face, not unlike her Gengar's.
"Nice job using Shadow Ball to block that attack like that Gengar...but how about we counter attack? Use Shadow Ball again!"
Gengar put its hands together and pulled them apart; a glowing ball of dark purple energy crackled in between its hand's. Suddenly it shot forward, towards Houndour, the fire dog Pokémon tried to dodge, but was too close to Gengar from its previous attack, and the Shadow ball connected and sent it flying across the grass.
"Awoooooooooooooo!" Houndour yelped in pain, shook itself feebly, and got up. But as the dust cleared it looked up only to see Arbok not far it front of it!
"You want to pull a sneak attack? We will too, Arbok's going to finish you! Use Mud Bomb!"
Arbok hissed and opened its mouth to pull of the attack but then...
"Raticate Agility, then Hyper Fang!"
Raticate, raced forward, its small body running at full speed at Arbok, jumped at it and buried its teeth into the snake's Pokémon 's tail. Arbok hissed in pain and rage and whipped around to face its attacker.
"Arbok calm down! Use this chance and use Glare attack!"
Arbok shifted its head, looming over the Raticate; its eyes glowed red as it stared at the Rat Pokémon paralyzing it.
"No Raticate, snap out of it!"
"Crunch, Arbok!"
In one swift movement Arbok struck and bit Raticate, sending the Pokémon retreating back to its master's feet, until it collapsed to its feet. It seemed to be unconscious. It then slithered back to the girl's side of the field, next to Gengar, the two purple Pokémon facing their opponents with determination.
"Raticate, no!" The Raticate's trainer yelled.
"Rose let's try to finish this up, attack Houndour and I'll back you up!"
"All right, yeah let's finish this, I'm getting kind of hungry...Gengar, stop it and pay attention!"
Gengar had been getting bored during Arbok's battle and had used the time to turn its attention to Rose's shoelaces and tie them together.
"Hey you two take this seriously! Don't underestimate Team Rocket! Houndour, Smog attack!"
Rose and Anna only had a couple seconds of vision as Houndour opened its mouth and black, thick smoke covered the field.
"I can't see! Rose what are we going to-?"
"Fire Fang!"
There was a brief flash of fiery light, only to see the shadowy figures of Houndour and Gengar in the smoke. There was a sharp hiss, obviously from Arbok, then a grunt and a howl, definitely from Houndour...and then silence...then slowly the smog began to fade...
"Arbok...! Rose, we need to-!"
"Calm down Anna, Gengar did good teamwork for once..."
"Huh?"
Anna turned her head towards the now cleared smoke, and slowly smiled victoriously.
"Wow, Gengar may be a pain sometimes, but it sure knows how to battle."
Gengar and Arbok, where standing over Houndour, how seemed was asleep and seemed to be in pain of some sort. This was obviously the work of Gengar's combo of Hypnosis and Dream Eater attacks.
"Houndour!"
The grunt seemed to sense defeat; he scowled and recalled the hurt Houndour to his Pokéball, his partner already recalled Raticate, ready to make a retreat.
"You have won this battle brats, but Team Rocket will get the upper hand on you, on everyone! Then you'll be wishing you never even interfered with us!" And with that, the Rocket Grunts ran off.
Arbok and Gengar came up to the girls, both with some injuries but nothing major.
"You guys okay? You both did great!" Anna said happily, petting her Arbok's head. She turned towards Rose, to see if she was praising her Pokémon, only to sweatdrop.
"Hahahahaha we totally whooped them! Not bad Gengar!" Rose said while laughing maniacally, her Gengar looking just as crazy happy.
"Someone needs some food..." Anna said smiling in amusement
"Sounds good to me, I heard Olivine has great food." Rose replied, suddenly back to normal.
"Awesome, though while we're here...can we um...get Moomoo milk?" Anna said excitedly pointing towards the ranch they had just finished saving.
"Anna what's with you and milk? All right really quick let's get some..." Rose said with an amused smile.
Just as Anna was contemplating if she could get free samples, Rose suddenly yelled and fell with a THUD.
"What the...oh yeah, you forgot Gengar tied your laces together huh?"
"Shut up, or no milk for you"
"I saw nothing..."
Gengar just smiled mischievously again.
After Anna had gotten enough Moomoo milk to last about a week, the two girls finally reach Olivine and decided to drop most of their pokémon off at the Pokémon Center; all of them except for Rose's Gengar and Anna's slowbro. The two pokémon followed the girls to the restaurant at the southern part of the town. There, the girls decided to make use of the money they just won by pigging out. Most of the other customers decided to sit away from the two as they started to stuff their faces.
"That guy's face when the smog cleared was priceless!" Anna said, chewing on some rice. "How did Gengar manage to hit with that hypnosis though?" Rose only shrugged.
"Who knows how he does anything, worries me occasionally. But you know, nothing you can do about him." Rose sighed, watching the ghost pokémon chewing on some berries.
"I never knew gengars could open their mouths…" Anna said, almost in amazement as she watched the pokémon chew. Gengar glanced at her, noticing her staring before he turned to eat in peace. Rose opened her mouth to comment before her pokégear started to ring. Rose dropped the greasy piece of food she had been eating while she fumbled around for it.
"Oh great, now it's all greasy," she muttered before opening it. "Yes? It better be important, we're trying to feast here."
"Feast? And I'm not invited?" A voice answered. "That's not nice at all Rose."
"Irwin?" Rose said surprised. "I thought you'd call me later on, you're picking up on news faster and faster, it's kind of creepy."
"Well the Ecruteak gym is only up the road you know, it's not like I couldn't go and hear the news myself." Irwin replied. "Is Anna still there or did you scare her off with your violent battle strategies?"
"I'm still here," Anna said through a mouthful of rice. "I just make sure to stay out of the way." Rose rolled her eyes, but let off a small laugh.
"Well either way, awesome job on beating Morty! Up next is Olivine right?" Irwin said.
"Yup!" Anna replied. "May have to travel down to Cianwood first, I heard something about some new safari zone!" Anna said excitedly. "You should totally join us."
"Hmm, maybe I will, right now I need to make sure you guys don't cream me like last time. Caught another voltorb by the way, it's very moody though, keeps exploding without warning."
"Haha," Rose laughed. "That I think I'd like to see."
"Whatever," Irwin muttered. "I had something else to say, but I totally forgot now. I'll call you later if I remember."
"Fine by me, can we finish eating now?" Anna asked.
"Yeah yeah, talk to you guys later." Irwin said before the line went dead. Rose made sure to wipe her hands first before putting the pokégear back in her bag.
"Now then," Rose said to herself as she started eating again.
Not much later Gengar and Slowbro started to nap, so the girl's decided to put the two back in their pokéballs. When they finally finished they sat back, trying to figure out what to do next.
"Now it's all late," Rose muttered. "And I don't feel like surfing across the ocean at night. What if there are pirates!"
"I doubt there are pirates out there Rose" Anna sighed. "I wish you'd stop with that paranoia."
"Trust me, pirates will be there one day when you least expect it." Rose muttered.
"Goodness you two eat a lot." The two girls jumped at the sound of a new voice and turned to see someone standing there. "I almost feel sorry for the guy who has to wash their dishes." He laughed.
"Are you a pirate?" Rose asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Rose," Anna groaned. "He's not a pirate."
"I'm just making sure." Rose muttered.
The girls and the stranger chatted for a while, telling him about their plans to travel to Cianwood and defeat the rest of the gym leaders. Soon enough he offered to buy them some drinks, which ended up being a mistake on their part.
"These drinks taste funny." Rose said, looking at the glass as her mind started to turn blurry. "But oh my gosh I feel really good right now." Rose started to giggle. "I CAN SEE THE RAINBOW!" Rose suddenly shouted.
"ME TOO!" Anna also shouted, shaking back and forth in her chair. "Like whoa Rose, there are five of you, it's awesome."
"Haha, yeah!" Rose said before she heard the pokégear ringing again. She reached into her bag and pulled it out, but passed out before she could actually answer it.
"Rose? Hello?" Irwin's voice came from the other end. "You two didn't over eat did you?" He asked. Before he could get a response though the stranger hung up and left, taking the two unconscious girls with him.
Rose woke up slowly, her head pounding as she tried to make her eyes work. They were in some room, the location couldn't be specific as it was kind of dark. She saw Anna next to her, already awake and looking just as confused.
"What happened?" Rose asked. "God my head hurts." She moaned.
"I dunno, you used double team or something somehow and everything went black." They both looked around again. "Maybe something in the drinks?"
"Ha!" Rose said. "I knew that guy was a pirate!"
"I doubt that Rose." Anna sighed again.
"Well if he wasn't a pirate then who was he?" Rose asked. Anna, however, wasn't the one to answer.
"Executive Petrel at your service." A strange man with purple hair was suddenly in the doorway. "Your pirate guess wasn't far off though." He laughed.
"What?" Rose asked. "The strange guy looked nothing like you."
"No?" Petrel asked, with an odd flash he's appearance suddenly changed. "What about now?"
"Oh my gosh magic!" Rose said. "He must be a witch!" Anna just sighed again.
"Either way," Petrel changed back. "I hope you two have no complaints about joining us, because you won't be getting a choice in the matter."
"What?" Anna asked as another man walked in with a mismagus following him.
"They awake already?" He asked.
"Oh my gosh your hair." Rose said. "It can defy gravity!" The other man said nothing in response, looking at Petrel.
"Hey, I didn't wake them up Proton, don't look at me."
"Your name is Proton?" Anna said. "Holy crap that's hilarious, who names their kid proton!" She started laughing.
"Look you two, I don't wan-"
"Burn the witch!" Rose suddenly shouted. Proton paused, looking at her firmly as she calmed down.
"I don't want any problems, so let's just get this over with." Proton said as Petrel left the room. The girls didn't have time for any more snide remakes before the mismagus blasted them with a hypnosis.
"Who did you say you where again?"
"Executive Proton of Team Rocket-" He paused as Anna let out a giggle at his name, gave her a glare, and then resumed talking. "Which is the organization you agreed to join, so I expect you to be serious about your work and listen to your superiors-"
"Your not going to make us get you coffee and stupid stuff like that are you?" Rose suddenly cut in, making Anna giggle again.
Proton glared at both of then, and huffed, if Team Rocket wasn't in such need of members after getting disbanded 3 years ago, they wouldn't have gone to the trouble of kidnapping, and hypnotizing two annoying teenage trainers.
"Petrel owes me one..." he mumbled as he walked down the hall with the two girls. Thank Giovanni, he was going to dump them on another lesser executive or he would go crazy listening to these two...!
"Hey Proton...?"
"That's Executive Proton to you, little girl."
Anna twitched a little at the "little girl" comment, but just smirked.
"Hey do you have two brothers named Neutron and Electron?"
"I'm amazed his hair can defy gravity like that." Rose said
"Will you two shut up?"
The three kept walking through the twists and turns of the Rocket headquarters, Proton not giving any directions and glaring at the girls whenever they started to say something. Anna was about to ask if they where going to get to wherever Proton was taking them, why couldn't Petrel show them around?
"Aramis, I'm assigning you to look after the new members"
Anna stops walking and jumps, realizing Proton had stopped walking and was now talking to someone.
She looks up to see an older teenage guy with dirty blonde hair, a slight tan, light blue eyes, and actually...kinda good-looking.
He regards Proton and the two girls with a bored look, making Anna blush slightly and Rose to give him a bored look right back.
"Why do I have to Proton...? Can't you some Grunt to do it, or at least Executive Ariana she's a girl...! I don't want to look after some annoying noobs!"
"They're closer to your age Aramis and you may be an Executive now but I've been doing this longer than you...and thus still your superior."
Aramis glared evenly at Proton, angry at the obvious disrespect at his rank.
"Dog fight" Rose whispered to Anna.
"God you're stubborn...If you won't do it for that do it for our cause, we need more members now, and Team Rocket is our first priority."
"...Understood"
"Good, explain the basics of training to them and get them into uniform, they will start training immediately."
With that Proton walked off, leaving the two trainers with the other Rocket member.
"Great, now I'm stuck with noobs, fine, if I'm stuck with you two you better not bother me... " Aramis mumbled walking down yet another long hallway, wanting them to follow.
"Great more walking" Rose mumbled following
"I take it back, he seems like a jerk" Anna mumbled under her breath.
"Huh did you say something?" Rose said turning around and looking at Anna.
"Nothing, just everyone doesn't seem that friendly..."
"Well, some people are like that...but we must of had a good reason to join right...?"
"Yeah I guess your right" Anna said as she walked faster to catch up with Aramis
Unlike Proton, Aramis started talking as soon as they started walking, though he only was briefing them on Team Rocket rules and training.
"All Grunts start training at the Team Rocket training school which lasts for a period of 3 weeks, it usually is longer, so Grunts can find a suitable partner they can work on missions together but since you two already know each other, training won't take as long."
"Who's your lucky partner?" Rose said sarcastically
Aramis chose to ignore Rose's obvious taunt and replied "Not that it's your business, but I don't have a partner anymore. I was promoted to Executive a month ago, and work solo or lead teams on missions."
Both girls regarded this info silently, in one of those rare moods of seriousness; which Aramis took as an invitation to continue.
"Anyway, once training is done, you start regular missions usually with noobs like you in a group. Training with your Pokemon once a day is required and you are expected up and out of bed by 5:30... "
"Why do we have to wake up at 5:30? Thats inhumanity! Who the heck can function that early in the morning?" Anna yelled
"It's part of the rules, and if you have a problem with it, keep it to yourself"
Anna was about to retort back, when Aramis stopped and walked into a nearby room, which the two reluctantly followed.
It was a work-out room of some sort, with work-out experiment for both people and Pokemon scattered evenly throughout the room; two doors where near the entrance on each side, one for women and men, obviously locker rooms.
"Common, we need to get you two into uniform," Aramis said looking strangely at Anna's purple Driftloon hoodie, and Rose's tan khaki pants. He was about to walk in the girls locker room, until he noticed the girls stares. Aramis sighed and turned to them, annoyed he had to explain all this crap to them.
"No ones in there at the moment, everyone else is on break, and I would be be to if Proton hadn't stuck me with this, and stop looking at me like I'm some sort of creeper!"
Anna just made a small cough, that sounded allot like "Pervert", and Rose just looked like she wanted to get this over with already.
"Hey when's lunch around here? Will there be cake?" she asked casually
Aramis sighs, and walks into the locker room, the girls following again.
Aramis stops at a cabinet near the back of the locker rooms, and points inside, indicating they were to look inside.
"These are your uniforms"
Rose and Anna take one look at the all black uniform, complete with boots, a hat and, they wince, a skirt.
"Oh you gotta be freaking kidding me, a skirt?" Rose yelled
"We want pants!" Anna yelled in agreement.
"There are no exceptions" Aramis said bluntly
"On you just want to see our butts now I see how it is" Rose said with an evil grin.
"Wah Rose, don't say that!" Anna said, blushing, looking back and forth between Aramis, herself and Rose.
"Stop saying ridiculous things and get dressed" Aramis said while attempting to keep a straight face, a slight blush on his face.
"Pffft look Anna I made the cool guy blush!"
Anna giggled, having to admit it was funny seeing such a serious person, trying so hard to keep a straight face. In fact it was almost kind of cute...She starts, and frowns at herself for thinking like that; not forgetting his previous jerk-behavior.
"Common we have to wear these stupid uniforms, lets just get this over with" Anna said sighing, turning to Rose, and dragged her into the dressing rooms.
"But Anna its a skirt! I thought you were my friend! This is so stupid!" Rose protested
10 minutes later, they walked outside the locker rooms, where Aramis waiting for them. They fidgeted, not used to wearing such awkward clothing, both wishing for pants.
"Its okay we'll steal some later, I saw some when we came in..." Rose whispered to Anna
"They can't get to mad at us...they promote stealing here right?" Anna whispered back, with a grin.
"I can hear you two, but whatever..." Aramis mumbled, making the two girls jump and look away hastily, trying to look innocent.
"So now thats that over with, show me what Pokemon you have, starting with you" He said looking at Rose.
Rose shrugged and called her Gengar, who looked bored. It suddenly noticed it was in a new place it's never been, and grinned. Which was not a good thing, Rose knew it usually meant he was up to something...
"He looks like a troublemaker, but he looks strong, and looks like you take good care of him...he'll do." Aramis grudgingly said
Rose smirked as to say 'Of course he does, just wait till I battle', which made Anna sweatdrop, being in Team Rocket wasn't going to help Rose's kinda...eccentric battle strategies.
Aramis then turned to Anna, indicating she release her Pokemon now, she complied, bringing out her Slowbro.
"A Slowbro...? Seriously? People are not going to take you seriously with that..." Aramis said looking at Slowbro's blank expression.
"Hey! Slowbro may not look like much to you, but he really means a lot to me!" Anna said angrily "He is just as reliable and strong, as any other 'scary' looking Pokemon!"
" Anyway I don't see your Pokemon" Rose said cutting in, backing Anna up.
Aramis quirks an eyebrow, and calmly calls out a Scizor, a Sneasel, and with a bit of hesitation, another Pokemon...
At first Rose and Anna don't speak, but then Anna starts to giggle at Aramis' third Pokemon, a pink Clefairy. She jumps as she realizes Rose, is glaring at it and stops giggling. Oh yeah, she forgot, Rose hated clefairy...
Clefairy blinks, obviously not used to being out of it's pokeball, notices Aramis and immediately goes up to him and hugs his feet.
"Aww so cute" Anna said, half seriously, half teasingly.
"Eviiiiillll..." Rose said with a slight hiss, earning a glare from Aramis
"Its not what you think! I stole it! It's powerful, way more than your Pokemon! I don't even like pink!" Aramis said, but still didn't remove Clefairy from his leg. Clefairy just gave him a look that looked like it was used to him saying that, and continued hugging the embarrassed Executive.
"Riiiight" Rose said
"You shut up!" Aramis said, he and Rose having a glaring match.
"Wow...pink? I'm a girl Aramis and I don't even like the color...but you-" Anna said, but cut off as she saw her Slowbro staring at her.
Everyone quiets down as Slowbro randomly walks out of the room. Apparently Anna understood what the heck that was about, because she freaks out and goes after it.
"Slowbro, I didn't mean you! Your one of the few pink things I like! Ow, crap its hard to walk in boots...! Come back!"
Rose and Aramis just stood there, not sure to deal with the situation that just happened, Clefairy taking the time to hug Aramis some more without interruption.
"You totally thought that was cute..." Rose said smirking at Aramis.
"N...no! You...wait wheres your Gengar?"
Rose looks around only to realize the Ghost pokemon was nowhere in the room.
"I knew he would pull something like this! Knowing him, I bet he's in the kitchen!" Rose said running off only to come back a few seconds later.
"Where's the kitchen?"
"You both are idiots..." Aramis said sighing. He recalls his Pokemon and walks out of the room.
Aramis and Rose finally make it to the kitchen, but stop in there tracks as they glance at the mess hall, that happened to be right next to it. Well Rose was right, the kitchen/mess hall had been the target of one of Gengar's crazy pranks. Tables where thrown down, food was splattered everywhere; Pokemon and Grunts where running wild throwing food, and battling each other.
"You are so dead when Archer gets here," Aramis said bluntly
"Not as dead as Gengar's going to be!" Rose yelled.
They both didn't get to say anything as suddenly Aramis got a piece of cake to the face. But before Rose could laugh, she was hit with a sandwich and a juice box in the back.
Suddenly Anna ran out of the fray, surprisingly not covered in food, just for a bit in her hair and shoes. Her Slowbro was following her, also clean and unhurt.
"Hey you guys! Oh...ouch...you got hit?"
Rose took one look at Anna, put on a 'FUUUU-' face, and pointed at her, demanding an explanation.
"Slowbro's confusion attack is great for blocking the food, and attacking Pokemon." She said, with a slight smug glance at Aramis, glad to show her Slowbro's power. He twitched a bit a bit in annoyance, but just sighed and glared.
"Good for you, your Slowbro isn't useless. Now mind telling me what happened so when Archer gets here I at least have some sort of story to tell before he kills me..."
"And where the hell is Gengar...?"
Anna sighed, and motioned for her Slowbro to protect the three from food and such, while they talked. Slowbro seemed okay with this but then blinked then glanced at Aramis.
"Yes even Aramis, even though he doesn't deserve it...Don't worry we will get him back later..." Anna said smiling at her Pokemon.
She ignored Aramis's scowl, and turned to them ready to explain.
"Well it started when I finally caught up with Slowbro...well, I did I didn't know where I was, and wandered around and ended up in the mess hall..."
"Why does this place have to be so big? I have no idea where we are going..." Anna grumbled as she walked through the hallways of Team Rocket HQ.
"Slowwww" Slowbro yawned and stopped walking.
"Oops sorry Slowbro you don't have to walk with me, return." Anna said turning to her Pokemon, and pulling out it's pokeball and returning it.
Anna walks around for another couple minutes until she hears voices...As she turns the corner she's in a big hall with a bunch of tables, food, and various Rocket members eating food, or just sitting and talking at tables.
"Oh cool, well, I am a little hungry..."
Not too hungry, she only grabs a banana and a glass of milk, and is about to walk away when...
"Hey you little girl!"
She glances around and see's a pair of Grunts in a group at a nearby table...she walks over not wanting to be rude, though secretly ready to tell them off if she needed to. Anna hated being called little girl.
"Hm?" She said to the Grunt that had talked. He smirks, as he takes in her Team Rocket uniform and her quizzical expression.
"So they went through with it...?" He said laughing, none to nicely
"And you're laughing at me why?"
"Just glad you joined..." he said smirking "I can't wait to see you start with the program, you know that stealing and all..."
"Look I don't know what your problem is, if you are implying I won't do any of that, obviously I will or I wouldn't have joined in the first place!" Anna said glaring.
With that the Grunt and his posse start laughing, making Anna flush with anger, but waits for them to stop laughing.
"Fine laugh all you want, but if I ever battle you, I swear I will whoop you so hard, you'll wish you hadn't even talked to me."
Obviously that hit a nerve because the Grunt scowled and got up, looking like he was going to hit her.
"Hey Wane, wait up don't hit a girl..." one of the grunts mumbles
After some coaxing Wane finally sits down, still glaring, Anna had no doubt he would do anything afterwards to make her life miserable.
"Fine, leave brat, oh and tell your friend too that I congratulate her on joining..."
Wane sits back down, Anna just confused out of her mind...why would he hate me and Rose...? Weirdo... She was about to walk away when suddenly her banana floated, yes floated, out of her hand suddenly! Anna didn't even have time to yelp in surprise, as it flew up, and back and hit Wane in the back of the head with a splat.
Wane whips around, fixes his eyes on Anna, and without hesitation hurls his sandwich at Anna's face. She screams and drops her glass of milk, it spilling all over her boots.
She wipes the sandwich off her face, a scowl on her face.
"You...just wasted a glass of milk...IT'S ON!" She grabbed a nearby Grunts apple and threw it in Wane's direction, but instead hits one of his's posse's shoulders.
"Oops" she mumbles as they all prepare to pelt her with food; Anna puts up her hands to block, though it wouldn't do much good... They throw the food but then suddenly she see's a small stream of light. She blinks and glances next to her, her Slowbro now out of its Pokeball with its eyes glowing. Glancing around she see's that the Grunt's food had frozen in midair before they could hit, she grins evilly.
"Slowbro, Confusion!"
"Slow...brooooo!"
With that Slowbro sent the food flying in all directions, hitting many Rocket members, earning glares at the Pokemon and it's trainer. Oh crap Slowbro didn't have to go that far...
"Get the girl!"
"Food fight!"
"Go Crobat!"
"Who threw that turkey leg at me?"
"MORTAL COMBAT!"
"Get ready Slowbro, this is going to get tricky...you think you can keep up Confusion till we get out of this?"
"Bro!" Slowbro says, nodding, blocking another onslaught of food from its trainer.
Suddenly she hears snickering above her, and looks up and see's Rose's Gengar hovering surveying the scene.
"Gengar damn it! " Anna said, suddenly realizing she had gotten caught in one of Gengar's pranks. It just smiles mischievously, and vanishes, going to survey the chaos from a safe place.
"Then Slowbro and I made our way out of that mess, and now I'm here" Anna said smiling
"You just had to throw food back" Rose said sighing
"Your Gengar started it.." Anna mumbled back
"You both are idiots..." Aramis said
"Shut up emo, go pet your stupid Clefairy or something" Rose said absentmindedly as she picked up an apple and hurled it at a nearby grunt.
She grins as,
"Rose don't do that! We're already busted enough!" Anna yelled, trying to talk over the noise.
"So I assume you two are the cause of this problem...?"
The three instantly stop arguing and turn around only to see a man with teal hair, pale skin, and a white executive suit. He was smiling but he sure didn't look like he thought this was funny.
"Executive Archer..." Aramis says, a slight hint of fear and respect in his words
Oh boy, if Aramis respected and feared this guy, they were so in trouble, this guy was the Leader of Team Rocket.
Everywhere the Rocket members had noticed his presence, food dropped and Pokemon where recalled instantly, the whole room in dead quiet.
"Now who wants to be the one to tell me what happened?"
Well in the end, both girls had been to blame, seeing as Rose's Gengar had started the fight in the first place, and Anna and her Slowbro, for making the situation worse. They had been assigned kitchen duty until further notice, but not before cleaning up the mess hall.
"Hey Rose get that spot over there!" Anna said pointing from her spot.
She was scrubbing at a stain on the wall, her Slowbro using its water attacks to help her get it out easier.
"I got it geez..." Rose grumbled, walking to where she was pointing with a mop, her Gengar floating behind her, a disappointed look on it's face.
"I can't believe I am getting punished too, I hate you two!" Aramis yelled from across the room, where he was picking up trash off the tables.
Anna walks over to Aramis, finished with her job, starting to help him pick up trash.
"You know you don't have to be so negative all the time..." Anna said
"I'm not negative! Whats wrong with being angry with you two? I have every reason to be!" Aramis said angrily
"Your not negative? So acting like you have a stick up you butt is super-speacial-fun?" Rose yelled from her side of the room
"Shut up you annoying girl!"
They continue to work in silence until Anna, looks up at Aramis strangely, earning a glare from him.
"What?"
"You called Rose an 'annoying girl'..."
"So...?"
"Do you even know our names? You didn't ask our names originally did you...?"
Aramis scowls, blushes and then looks away angrily.
"W...well no...you guys kept saying them to each other but with all this crap going on I keep forgetting!"
Anna blinks then starts cracking up laughing, and yells to Rose.
"Hey Rose, Aramis didn't know our names this whole time!"
"Psssh really? Wow I knew he was an idiot...stupid Clefairy-lover..."
"Shut up Rose!" Aramis shouted at her.
"Oh now you know my name..."
"Hey you three! More cleaning less talking!" Proton yelled from his chair, annoyed he was stuck with these two again.
"Stupid pirate slave-driver..." Rose mumbles
Anna just sighs, and turns to Aramis.
"It's Anna."
"What?" He said not even looking at her.
"That's my name, if your going to insult me idiot, you might as well know my name...remember it ok?" Anna said, then turned back to her work.
"Fine whatever you say, Anna..." Aramis said with heavy sarcasm
He didn't get to say more, as Anna slammed the remains of a burger on top of his head.
"That's for calling Slowbro stupid..." she said smiling fakely.
She quickly walked away knowing Aramis enough that he wouldn't start anything with a superior nearby, though she was sure she was going to pay for it later.
"Hey Anna will you stop flirting with the Clefairy douche and help me?" Rose said
"I am not! And...! Wait, uh Rose...Gengar...!" Anna said
Rose looked to where Anna was pointing as they look in horror as they see a bag of picked up food hovering over Proton's head.
"Gengar no!"
Team Rocket was going to be an experience that was for sure...if they lasted that long.
