High above the large city named Castelia, two pokemon soared through the air. The first one, a legendary pokemon, ho-oh, was the larger of the two flying beasts. It held two passengers on its back, which were Aaron and Beth. The other pokemon, a flygon, flew closely to the fire-type bird. On its back rode the other two captains, Mac and Leo. The smaller captain was holding a bottle in his hand, with half of its contents consumed. The shaggy haired captain had a deep smile on his face, along with a heavy blush that everyone could see from a yard away, showing that he was somewhat intoxicated.

"Man, we sh-should really… really… fly in the sky with Lancer's flygon more often…" Leo slurred, letting out a short burp afterward.

"Hmph, not with your drunk ass." Mac spat at his colleague. "It's in the middle of the morning, why are you drinking this early?"

"Hey! It's n-never… too early for a drink…!" the shorter captain replied, albeit poorly.

The ho-oh that tagged along with the flygon flew closer, allowing Aaron and Beth to show the drunk man their disapproving frowns. Neither condoned the actions of the captain, knowing that it wouldn't end well for the man should he continue.

"You really shouldn't be drinking this early, though," the female captain said. "It's not healthy for you."

"Oh, don't worry about me!" Leo somewhat reassured. "I can hold me drink just fine!"

"No, you really can't," Aaron said, stilling frowning at the captain. "I'm honestly surprised that Carol let you guys borrow her flygon, knowing what kind of trouble you would get into too."

"I so can too hold my drink!" The shaggy haired man slurred. "I can take a lot of-!" He stopped himself once a loud growl erupted from his stomach, signalling he hasn't eaten anything yet today. "Oh man, I'm hungry… Oi, Mac! Take us down to the city for a meal!"

The larger captain glanced back at the drunk man and raised an eyebrow. "And why should I?" he asked.

"I'll stop drinking if you dooo~!" Leo went on.

"Really? You swear?" Mac questioned.

"Cross my… my… was it heart…?" The drunk captain mused to himself, quickly coming to a conclusion. "Yeah! Cross my heart, and hope to die!"

The larger captain thought to himself, the offer really tempting him to accept. After a few seconds, he sighed before lightly scratching the green antenna of the flygon, getting its attention.

"Hey, can you take us down to the city?" Mac asked the dragon type pokemon.

The green dragon silently accepted the order, and made itself descend toward the large city. The flygon zipped between the many buildings, allowing the captains to look for a place for Leo's empty stomach.

"What are you in the mood for?" Mac asked his colleague.

The shorter captain scanned the smaller buildings below, trying to find a restaurant that would quench his hunger. His blue eyes landed on a small shop that had a large sign on the front that read 'MOLLIES'. Upon closer inspection, the captain could see a familiar face exit the small restaurant. It was Melissa, and in her hands was a submarine sandwich that was newly made, packaged and all. A devious smile formed on the captain's face, finding the food he wanted.

"There." Leo pointed to the store. Or more specifically, the brunette. "My meal is there, right in her hands!"

The larger captain glanced down at the streets below and eyed Melissa before looking back at his peer. "You're serious? You can't just get your own?" He questioned.

"Nah, this is much quicker," Leo said. "Besides, she won't mind too much. And if she does, she can just yell at me later."

Mac paused again, his gut feeling telling him not to go through with this. But the thought of having to deal with his friends drunken antics annoyed him too much for him to follow it. The captain sighed once more, and whispered to the flygon to swoop down toward the unsuspecting brunette. It gave the man a hesitant but light nod, and moved toward the teen.


Having now exited the small restaurant, Melissa grinned brightly. In her hands was a large well made submarine sandwich that was wrapped in light green paper that had the name 'MOLLIES' printed on the side. The brunette eyed the sandwich with glee as she moved forward, already tasting the goodness from the piece of food without even eating it. She loved subs, especially when they were made from Mollie's. It had all of her favorite meats and condiments within it, making her mouth water impatiently.

Deciding that she couldn't wait any longer, Melissa stopped on the sidewalk-while still facing the street-and brought the sandwich close to her face. She closed her brown orbs and opened her mouth slightly as she brought the sub closer for a bite. At this moment, something whizzed past the brunette for a split second. However, the hungry teen paid this no mind as she clamped her down.

Nothing.

Melissa made no movement, for confusion had consumed her mind. She knew that her delicious sandwich was supposed to be next to her mouth, so why didn't she get any of it when she bit down? Slowly, she cracked open one of her eyes to see what went wrong.

All she could see was her hands.

They're empty.

At the same time, horrible confusion and worry and taken a hold of the brunette as she frantically looked around for her meal. It wasn't on the ground, so she didn't drop it. And no one was near her, so nobody could have swiped it from her hands when she had her eyes closed.

A thought came to the teen's mind, one about the thing that whizzed past her when she was about to bite her sandwich. Wondering if this was the connection to her missing meal, she looked toward the direction of which it was going. Her eyes were now in the sky, glued onto the green dragon that was flying above. Two people were riding on it, one of which was holding onto a dangling submarine sandwich in their hand.

Her sandwich.

Anger began to bubble within the hungry teen, and her face started to twist with burning rage. The brunette's breathing was getting heavier and quicker the longer she looked at her stolen sub, letting out a deep snarl as she did. When her anger reached the top of the tipping point, she blasted off after the dragon, sprinting with great speed as her red aura steamed off her body to a great degree. Her enraged battle-cry was enough to send great amounts of fear into anyone that was unfortunate enough to hear it.

No one would take her food and walk away unscathed. No one.


The flygon rejoined the ho-oh high above the city, to much of Aaron's and Beth's surprise, and flew closer to the legendary pokemon. The duo could see the wrapped up sandwich Leo held, along with the half empty bottle of sake that he held in his other hand.

"That was… fast," Beth said slowly.

"I know, right?" Leo smiled. "This will definitely fill my stomach!"

"Where'd you get it?" Aaron asked the captain.

"Oh, you know," Leo replied as he brought the sub closer to his face. "I took it from Melissa."

At that moment, all the color from the curly haired teen's face drained as his heart fearfully skipped a beat. A deep, horrified expression covered his face as the captain's words echoed within his head, sending more and more fear into his system.

"You… did… what…?" Aaron questioned slowly as he shivered where he sat.

"I said I took it from Melissa." Leo repeated, and tried to bite into the sandwich he stole. However, he was unable to once Aaron lunged at the collar of his uniform and brought him close, forcing the ho-oh he was riding on to move so he wouldn't fall off.

"You idiot!" the curly haired teen screamed. "Do you have any idea what you've done?!"

"I… uh, took a sandwich from Melissa...?" Leo repeated again, this time with confusion in his voice.

"YOU'VE SIGNED OUR DEATH WARRANTS, YOU FOOL!" Aaron boomed at the captain. "You have no idea what Melissa does to those that try to steal her-!"

A loud and deep scream of absolute rage sounded out across the sky, interrupting the second in command and forcing him-along with the other three captains-to look down toward where the loud sound came from. All four could see the red aura clad Melissa sprinting after them with great speed from the streets below, slowly but surely catching up to them. Despite being on the ground, the group could feel the brunette's burning glare strike their souls at full force, showing off just how enraged she was.

"Is that-?!" Beth gasped in shock and fear. "H-how is she gaining on us?!"

"Oh man, we're so screwed!" Aaron whispered in a horrified voice as he let Leo go to shiver to himself again. In the past, the curly haired teen has bared witness to what the brunette will do when someone makes the horrible mistake of taking her food. The damage was always catastrophic. "No one takes her food and gets away with it!" he said in horror.

"H-h-hey! There's n-no need to worry!" Leo said with worried laughter. "We're in the air, and she's down there! There's no way she can reach-"

"Don't jinx us!" Mac yelled at the shaggy haired captain.

Another fearsome battle-cry roared through the air as the group looked back the enraged brunette. They could tell she was glowing in more of her aura, and most of it was located around her legs. To the groups great horror, Melissa jumped to a great height from the explosion of red aura from her feet and soared through the air. She screeched passed the two flying pokemon and rammed through the clouds above, disappearing behind them.

"What?!" Leo shrieked before glancing at his commander. "Weren't you guys still training her how to aura jump?! She shouldn't be anywhere near done yet!"

"She isn't…" Aaron breathed in response, staring at the clouds Melissa pierced with wide, horrified eyes. "But that woman will do the impossible to get her food…"

Beth, having an inkling as to who the crazed brunette would target, had silently ordered her legendary pokemon to move away from the flygon next to it. The action sent great worry down the spines of the other two captains, realizing she was going to target them.

"Oh man, oh man, oh man!" Leo cried out in terror, then looked toward his colleague. "What are we gonna do?! Y-you'll help me, right?! Right?!"

The larger of the two captains didn't reply vocally, instead choosing to scoot further away from the shaggy haired man. This only made Leo panic even more, worried over the damage that Melissa would cause to him.

As if on cue, a large boom echoed out from above, followed by a loud screech that got closer to the captains by the second. Leo's fear skyrocketed, seeing the visible red that lit up the clouds above, getting brighter, and brighter, until finally, Melissa burst from them with great speed. A mach-like cone of her red aura covered the teen's body as she zoomed straight toward the shaggy haired captain head first. She slammed into the man's chest and violently forced him off the flygon, making them both charge straight down to the buildings below. The dragon type pokemon cried out in shock once the brunette zoomed past it in close proximity, stopping itself and frantically looking around to see what had just happened.

With her head still on Leo's chest, Melissa forced both of them down toward the city with great speed, until they crashed on top of one of the buildings. A red explosion erupted as soon as they made contact, and the crimson smoke covered the area greatly. It took a couple seconds for the aura to clear, but once it did, the two UDF personal could be seen on the on the roof.

Leo was sprawled out on his back on the top of the building; his uniform was badly damaged from the impact. His mouth was agape and his blue eyes were turned up in his head. It was obvious he was in a great deal of pain. The bottle he once had was now shattered near him, its contents were spilled near him and across the roof.

Melissa, on the other hand, was standing above the captain in good health. Like Leo's, her uniform was damaged from the impact, but not as badly as the captain below her. In her hands held the sub sandwich that was stolen from her, which was somehow unscathed from the explosion. The brunette glared at the shaggy haired man before sighing a looking back at her meal. She quickly took a large bite from it and hummed in content as the flavors settled in her mouth. Having what she wanted, Melissa walked away from the captain and hopped off the building they were on, landing gracefully on the streets below and continuing on her merry way. As if nothing that transpired happened at all.

Flying toward the site of the impact, the ho-oh and flygon landed on the roof of the building and allowed their passengers to get off. The trio eyed Leo worryingly as they approached him, practically feeling the pain that came off him.

"Is… is he still alive…?" Beth asked with a concerned tone. Her nerves, however, were put to rest once a short gasp escaped the fallen captain's lips, showing that he was indeed living.

"Ow…" Leo whispered in pain.

"I hope you've learned your lesson, Leo," Aaron said. "Never, EVER, steal food from Melissa. You're lucky she decided to leave you off with a warning."

"That was a warning?" Mac questioned the commander, seeing how destructive the brunette could truly be.

Leo let out another pained cough, still feeling the great pain Melissa delivered to him. "I… I'm… still… hungry…" He breathed out slowly.
