Prologue

"This is a ridiculous idea." The woman hissed to the very tall and muscular man next to her. "We're competent enough to go through with the plans ourselves; I don't understand why we're taking orders from that man, much less working together with Magma." The woman tapped furiously on a computer, eyeing her companion briefly. "What the hell is Archie thinking?" She spat out.

"Archie's a good man and all, my best bro, but even I have no clue what's going through his head." The buff man replied in a much kinder tone of voice than the woman. "I'd prefer it to just be Magma; at least they come from the same region as us." He too was tapping away on a separate computer, his fingers made a loud tapping noise as well, but for a different reason, not because he was boiling over with anger, just out of the brute strength from his fingers. "But if what that guy promises is true then I guess I can deal with it for a bit, until Archie gets his sea legs and gets all the control, my bro can do that."

Shelly rolled her eyes, her icy blue gaze could pierce the computer screen in front of her from the harshness of her stare, "Archie better get his damn sea legs quickly then. I can't stand that pink haired bimbo much less the fatty. I want to rip them to shreds. Magma is so obnoxious." She spat. "Hoenn will be a wondrous place to live in once Team Aqua takes over. It'll be the true definition of 'heaven on earth'."

"Wondrous?" Matt questioned. "Not so sure about that."

"For us it will." Shelly clarified. "Team Aqua is Archie's family, especially us." The corner of her mouth tilted up into a smirk. "As his precious admins he needs to protect us since we aid him at every beck and call he asks us of. We know all of his secrets, every last one. Archie is awful at hiding emotions, you can read him better than a children's cardboard book." She pulled a sheet towards herself and began looking from it to the screen. "He'd be stupid to keep anything from his admins; we hide his issues better than he does himself. The world will be wondrous for us, we'll have control over the seas, we can flood any region needed, they all have water surrounding them; not even the farthest inland cities will be safe from our wrath. Kyogre is the ultimate weapon for our world domination." Shelly finished her work and leaned back with a wide grin, her eyes matched the malicious smile. "We just have to take out the head of our mass organization first, and with our own organization, that won't be a problem. Our recruits are twice as large as any other, besides Plasma, but with Ghetsis dead and their precious Prince Natural Harmonia missing, Aqua has the world for the taking. Not a single group will oppress us. We'll be this region's heroes of sorts, their saviours; their salvation." She narrowed her eye at the pleasant thought.

Matt let out a loud reverberating laugh that echoed throughout the room, bouncing off of the steel walls and high ceiling. "You better be right Shelly, you're never wrong though, our numbers have tripled in the past three years right?"

"Quadrupled." She corrected. "Not even that wimp kid from three years ago can attempt to stop us, we can just kill him on the spot. No officers will question us either; their ranks are filled with our people."

"Magma too?"

Shelly nodded. "We're in Magma too, we know of all their plans. Haven't you heard all the intel?" She looked at him quizzically, pursing her lips slightly.

Matt shook his head, "Nah, too busy searching around the region for them orbs, think I pinpointed them, Mt. Pyre."

Shelly smiled, crossing her arms over her chest. "Good. We better collect them soon."

Matt pushed himself away from the desk, his computer work finished as well. The wheeled chair he sat on creaked under his massive frame. "Better get them now then, before the true plan comes into play."

"Bring Zinnia with you. Treat her like any other grunt." Shelly smirked, "The poor girl doesn't know that we know of her true colours."

Matt laughed, "And you head to Meteor Falls, we need that meteorite."

"Already on it."

Matt stood up, the chair he was sitting on slid across the floor. A loud ringing noise reverberated throughout the room, catching both of the Aqua Admin's attention. Shelly frowned slightly at the name appearing on the large screen against the wall. She quickly accepted the call and stood up herself in a proper fashion.

The man on the screen stared down at them harshly, "What are you two idiots doing?" He spat in an angry, yet calm tone. Both Shelly and Matt refused to even consider being scared of the man. Aqua had the most grunts at their command, this man was nothing compared to them, his team was nothing compared to theirs. All this man had was the fear he embedded into the team leaders, like he had embedded into Archie and Maxie. Shelly and Matt had no fear of him, they were confident in their abilities, the abilities in their organization.

"Just finalizing plans sir. We have finished and have set the date for the twenty-fourth of July, two months from now." Shelly replied, her voice steady, her eyes never once leaving contact with the man's.

"I understand that it is two months from now Shelly, you needn't say that." He stared at her, barely blinking. "Where is your leader?"

"Currently he is out gathering materials. He will be returning shortly, if it is to your wish sir, I can get Leader Archie to contact you upon his return."

The man nodded once, "Very well, he has one hour to contact me."

The screen went black.

Shelly waited for a moment then threw the chair closest to her to the ground in anger, letting out a frustrated noise. She turned to Matt, her face livid. "Go and get that orb now."
