Chapter 2

Instead of doing as ordered Pierce simply stood tall and still like a stone statue as he watched his boss walk away while waiting for the bright red suit his boss always wore to disappear from sight. As soon as the offending red suit had disappeared and Pierce was sure that his boss would not return he turned and quickly walked towards his boss' office while ignoring the looks he was receiving from his fellow Team Rocket agents.

Knowing the boss he has not locked his office door through than again he hardly keeps anything important in that office. At least now I can prove my point about locking the door behind him. Pierce silently entered his boss' office and began to look for clues as to his boss' new location. His olive green eyes scanned over the piles of paperwork only for them to land on the photograph frame on the desk. Well, well, it looks like I have found something. I would of thought that by now boss would of known to not keep things like this out in the open.

Walking farther into the room Pierce came to a stop in front of the desk and picked up the golden coloured wood photograph frame and looked closely at the photo. In the photo was three people and it was obvious to Pierce that this was his boss' family. His boss stood proudly in the photo with his arms around a smiling brown haired woman who wore a bright pink cardigan and a young boy around the age of seven who had a large excited grin on his face and a red and white baseball cap on his head.

They must be his family, the young boy looks like a perfect mixture of them both. Pierce took in the rest of the photograph only for his sharp eyes to spot a familiar Pokémon wearing a very familiar black collar and fish shaped identification tag. It seems that the weak Meowth the boss keeps on him and trains is more than just a little side hobby to remind him of his days as a train. I wonder if he is planning to give it to his son when he starts on his journey.

Thanks to his countless hours of studying and training Pierce easily recognised the location that the photograph was taken. Professor Oak's lab in Pallet Town. A grin slowly made its way onto Pierce's face as the clocked man's brain made the hidden connections of what his boss was planning to do. With the new knowledge at hand Pierce turned around only to find himself face to face with Proton.

Proton gulped nervously as he did his best to hide his nervous as he stood in front of one of the elite agents. Even though he had been promoted to being one of the four Team Rocket Executives that everyone knew about there were still hidden Executives that no one knew about and were higher up than he was. Compared to them Proton was an extremely weak person that they could defeat in five seconds or less causing Proton to have a healthy amount of respect for the other Executive's and anyone above him, like Pierce who was standing in front of him with a dark look on his face.

"Sir," Proton said as he snapped to attention. "I have come to inform the boss that the mission went as expected and report to him."

"Well than you will just have to email him your report," Pierce replied causing Proton to gulp nervously, "He has just left on an important business trip and will not be back for a while."

"Yes sir," Proton replied nodding his head madly causing his black hat to almost slip off of his green haired head, "Is there anything I can do for you sir?"

Proton felt like wincing in disgust as the words came out of his mouth and he could see the look of disgust on Pierce's face through both of them knew that to be able to survive as a member of Team Rocket you needed to have the right attitude.

"As one of the boss' top agents I will be going with him to serve him in any way I can," Pierce replied causing Proton to nod his head again. "I expect to find a civilian looking car with the normal extras and a suitcase full of mission essentials along with a bag of clothes."

Proton let out a heavy sigh of relief at the man's words, they were not as bad as he thought they were going to be. Knowing better than to turn and walk out of the room without being given the order Proton stayed standing to attention while trying not to wince as he felt Pierce's eyes inspect him as if he was a piece of dirt.

"That will be all, I expect no one to go into my room through. I have a bag full of clothes that I normally take with me on missions waiting to be picked up in Dr. Zager's office," Pierce said causing Proton to nod in understanding, "I expect you to be waiting with my clothes and the other requested items next to the entrance of the car park."

"Yes sir!" Proton said quickly as his heart began to beat a mile a minute in fear of going anywhere near Dr. Zager's lab let alone his office.

"Good," Pierce grunted out only to begin to walk forwards.

Proton gulped nervously as he stayed stone stiff and unmoving as per the rules he had been taught. Sweat poured down his back and he did his best to not clench and unclench his hands as his anxiety grew. Even though to Proton it felt like it took a million years for Pierce to walk pass him and exit the office without offering him a single look or glance back it only took a few seconds. As the sound of his footsteps grew fainter and fainter Proton let out a relieved sigh and allowed himself to slump as he pulled himself together.

"Why is it that everyone here who is strong is also super scary for?" Proton muttered to himself as he straightened himself out.

Deciding that it was best to do as Pierce ordered before he came back and took out his anger on Proton the young Executive turned on his heel and walked out of the boss' office quickly. Proton hated Giovanni's office as it always gave off a strange vibe of power and being watched even when Giovanni was not present.

I better find someone to help me gather everything together, there is no way that I will be able to get everything that Pierce has requested of me and meet him outside of the car park without being late. Maybe I can find someone willing to grab the bag of clothes from Dr. Zager's office for me. Scanning his eyes over the room a grin came to Proton's face and his green eyes lit up as he spotted Petrel lying lazily on one of the sofas that had been placed in the office for people to rest on in between missions. Perfect, it looks like I have found someone else to be subjected to Dr. Zager's torture.

Doing his best to look as innocent as possible Proton walked over to his fellow Executive. The purple haired man was lying on the black leather sofa with his head resting against the arm, his eyes were closed through Proton could tell from how his eyes flickered slightly and how he breathed that he was not truly asleep. Another big give away that Petrel was not really asleep was his left hand which was playing with the three small tube like objects, one brown, one red and one grey, that was attached to his white belt around his waist.

"Do not even go there Proton," Petrel said before Proton could open his mouth, "Unlike you I am not a kiss ass fool who wishes to go places that they should not. I have seen the darker side of Team Rocket, compared to them we are only babies. I have no wish to kiss up to the likes of Pierce and become one of them. I might be cruel and heartless at times but I am not that cruel and heartless."

"But Petrel, you do not even know what I was going to ask you," Proton said as he tried to give Petrel a good natured grin on for it to fail as Petrel still had his eyes closed.

"I might not be the sharpest tool in the tool shed and I might not be the strongest Pokémon trainer in Team Rocket but I am no fool nor am I deaf," Petrel replied, finally opening his eyes to pin Proton in place with a pair of black coloured eyes, "I am not going to do the bidding of Pierce just because you want to rise in the ranks. Besides, you heard the big bad boss, I think he made it quite clear to us that he wanted to be left alone, what with all of that 'do not bother me unless it is important' talk."

Proton took a deep breath and pulled himself together, even through Petrel was on the same level as him he had something to him that made him hard to handle sometimes but luckily Proton knew Petrel's weakness and could order him about easily. Proton guessed that this might of been one of the reasons why they were put together in the group of four Executives for.
