The seconds felt like minutes. Missy peered at him. She watched him open a drawer in his desk. She watched him take out a letter opener, she froze. He stood up and began to walk. His eye's narrowed as he approached her.
" Just who do you think you are Missy?" he nearly shouted as he walked over to her.
He stopped in front of her and glared down. She couldn't read his intentions and her hearts pounded. Missy squirmed back as he reached down. He grabbed the knot in her tie and pulled her up.
He looked deeply into her eyes. She peered back focusing into his. She gazed at her reflection momentarily. Her focus quickly changed as he raised the blade. She looked at the letter opener and braced herself.
He peered at her chest. He carefully looked her over the spot before he stabbed. Missy clenched her fist as the blade entered her chest. He was quick driving the blade partially into her before withdrawing it. Her hot blood began to pour out. Her breathing became heavy, but to spite the pain she remained quite.
He gently set her back down. He let go of her tie and turned. He calmly returned to his desk.
Missy was overtaken by her own fury. " Just who in the hell do you think you are?"
He retook his seat at his desk. He grabbed a tissue and calmly cleaned the blood off the blade. He put the blade and tissue in the drawer. He glared at her for a moment, before opened drawer in his desk. He drew his gun.
He pointed the barrel at her. Missy's eyes widened with excitement. She leaned to the left as far as she could. She was sure to get out of his target range.
" I think I've had enough of these games!" He shot at the place she sat before.
The bullet punched through the chair. It pierced close to where her wound was. Missy watched as he put the gun in a holster. She sat up leaning back into the chair. She fell limp and closing her eyes. Missy held her breath and slowed her hearts rate. The doors burst opened as the guards rushed in.
" Sir are you alright?" they both asked as they rushed to his aid.
He slammed his fist onto the table.
" I'll be fine." He slowly breathed in. " That girl was going to be too much to handle. That two hearted freak was mad as a hatter."
It radio clicked as the dial was turned. There was static before a station was found.
" We need a body bag brought up to the bosses office," a guard said.
After a moment there was a response. " Roger that."
More static was followed by a click. Missy listened as she lay there. Someone was busy typing on a computer. She laid limp and listened to a silent room. Hasty steps approached from the outside. The door brushed open and disrupted the calmness. The squeaks of a stretcher soon followed as it was rolled into the office.
It wasn't long before she was being lifted up. She remained limp as the guards picked her up. Missy hit the stretcher with a thud, the bag below her wasn't enough to cushion her fall. She listened as they zipped up the bag.
" Take her to Zager's lab," he ordered.
His men were quick to comply. Missy was wheeled out of the office and into the hall. A door creaked open before it was promptly closed. There were mixed murmurers in the hallway.
" Thank Arceus he killed her," a woman gingerly said.
" It's better for all of us. You should get back in your office were still on a lock-down," the guard replied.
The sound of a door creaked before it shut. They stopped after a short travel. She listened as the doors slide open. They rolled the stretcher onto it. After a moment they began to descend. After a moderate trip, the elevator stopped.
The stretcher bounced as it entered a new passage. She listened and felt her body being moved through a hallway. After a short travel, she listened to as the door brushed open. She was wheeled into a room.
" Whats this?" an older man asked, his tone was profoundly curious.
" The bosses prisoner," the guard explained.
She listened as something was set down. "What!"
" Apparently the girl was insane. So he shot her," the guard explained.
" This is the one that nearly took out an entire squad?" There was a hint of confusion in Zager's voice.
" Yes, " the other guard answered.
" I know Doctor Namba wanted to work with this one," he inquired.
Missy listened as he walked past her. He picked up something and was tinkering with it. Missy listened to sharp metallic pings.
" The boss ordered us to take her to you."
Missy listened as the pings got louder. There was a sharp hum. What the hell is he doing to my screwdriver? She asked herself as the door to the laboratory opened.
" Sir, " the guards said together.
Missy listened as they walked off.
" Any updates on this technology?" he calmly asked.
" Not yet, I wish you hadn't killed the girl. Even if she was mad she had her uses," Zager said.
The sound of a spark-filled the room. Missy remained still and listened.
" Not this one. I've never seen such temerity in a woman before." He sighed." She told me she traveled the universe and she was certain this world was going to end. I was sure she was mad. So I decided to put her out of her misery."
Someone picked up a heavy object from a nearby table.
" Giovanni- " Zager started.
He cut off Zager with a cold response, " Zager. "
The conversation stopped when the phone began to ring. Giovanni hummed briefly almost as if he were amused.
Missy listened as the phone rang someone walked over to pick it up. Someone on the other end began to talk. She couldn't make it what he was saying but she could tell the person on the other end had panicked.
" Oh really," Giovanni said with an essence of surprise.
Missy listened as the voice on the other end became frantic.
" Wait on my instructions," he said.
He hung up the listened to him walk up to the body bag. He started to unzip it. She opened her eyes and smirked at him. He glared back as he unzipped the bag further.
Zager peered at her through his protective glasses, the look in his eyes was riddled with confusion. He was considerably old. His grey hair and mustache were somewhat of a mess. His lab coat and purple shirt gave her the impression that he was a mad scientist.
" What?" Zager asked as Missy sat up.
Giovanni walked over to a steel table with Missy's screwdriver on it.
" Turns out you're right. We've got about five minutes before they show up. What's your plan?" he plainly asked.
Missy took a look around. She was in a laboratory. In front of her, on a steel pedestal was the tardis. It was locked in some sort of energy force field. To her right were a few cabinets and a laboratory table.
She looked over to Giovanni. " Where are they coming from?"
" The sky," he promptly answered.
Missy thought over the schematics of her screwdriver and umbrella. After pondering the math and mechanics of her screwdriver, emolgas size and move set, an the potential dynamics the enemy, she got an idea.
" You're going to need to release me. I can take them out with lightning. That black pokeball is not what is appears to be. Release it from the force field, I'm going to need my emolga to come out. I'll also need that set of badges, my screwdriver, and my umbrella. I'm going to need a few members of your team that use electric type pokemon to meet us up on the roof," Missy explained as Giovanni walked up to her.
He looked into her eyes. " Done, but If you try anything rash. Well, I told you," Giovanni calmly said.
He reached into his jacket breast pocket. He pulled out a key. He walked behind her and released her from her bonds. Missy quickly loosened her tie and unbuttoned her shirt.
She inspected her wound. The gash was not very deep. The knife had gone less than an inch into her. Her bleeding had slowed down. His attack had been perfectly executed. She was drenched in her own blood, but was mostly unharmed.
Giovanni walked away from her. He picked up the phone and dialed a number. " Get Peirce and anyone available with an electric type pokemon to the roof."
There was a response given. Missy waited for him to hang up before responding to his threat.
" Running from you is not going to fix the problems we have at hand," Missy said as she slid off the stretcher.
He walked back over to her. She glanced over to Zager who was watching the two in a deep confusion.
Giovanni shrugged then casually looked over at her. " Who's to say you're going to fix this problem."
Missy growled annoyed by his arrogance. She leered at him and replied, " You're looking at the only girl in this world who can."
Giovanni diverted his attention to him. " Zager, get her what she needs," he said turning his attention to the screwdriver.
Zager quickly walked away.
Missy peered at Giovanni. " What made you believe me?"
" Your conviction and the information you presented. " He picked up the screwdriver and examined it. " What kind of instrument is this?" He asked as he pointed it at the light. The screwdriver did not respond to his attempt.
" That's a screwdriver," Missy said as she walked up next to him. " It's connected to my biometric code and will only respond to my command."
The sound of hum filled the room. Missy looked over and noticed the tardis prison had gone down. She focused on the controls then her emolga. The pokemon teleported out of the tardis.
Emolga flew up to her and dived into her chest. It tackled her giving her a hug. The pokemon was almost singing in happiness. She warmly embraced it and returned the affection.
" How did you do that?" Giovanni asked.
Missy glanced at him and smiled. " I'll show you all of that later. We're running out of time."
Zager walked over to her. He handed her the set of badges and her umbrella. Giovanni walked over to a counter with many radios. He grabbed one and beckoned Missy to join him. She took his side, behind them Zager ran in pursuit.
The trio walked to an elevator and got in. Giovanni pressed the R button. Soon the trio began their accent. On the way up, Missy watched Giovanni attempt to use her screwdriver again. He pointed it at the lights.
Missy shrugged at his attempts, she removed her tie. She tied it around emolga's neck. Then returned the perception filter to its original state. The device buzzed as it became a silver disk.
Zager gasped. " Those badges are an illusion?"
Giovanni growled as he looked at the device. Missy paid little attention as she tied the perception filter at the base of emolga's neck. She ignored his glare, instead, chose to pet emolga.
" You haven't seen anything yet." Missy looked over to Giovanni. " I'm going to need my screwdriver back in a moment. I'll show you how it's done."
The doors on the elevator opened. The three stepped onto the forest green roof. Missy could tell it was nearly high noon. The sky was cloudy nearly a haze of white. The roof was very low. The green turf blended in well with the surrounding forest.
Standing in front of Missy were four agents of the team. Three regular grunts and a man dressed in grey. The same man who flew on the dragonite at the battle. She quickly changed her focus to the pokemon with them. Their pokemon were Jolteon, Flaaffy, Magneton, and Dragonite.
Giovanni handed Missy her screwdriver. She took it and walked to the end of the roof. She opened the umbrella and placed it on the ground. She pointed the tip of it in the direction she would be standing.
Missy walked back over to the umbrella and pointed her screwdriver at it. She sent a beam to the point. It bounced back upgrading the shield. She then aimed it at the perception filter. She looked into the horizon. She spotted three ships in the distance.
" Get ready," she whispered to emolga.
She spotted the enemy ships in the distance. The three ships were a bright red and silver with a red letter 'F' etched on each of them. They looked like jets but were more compact.
Missy watched as they ascended into the sky. She then turned to the team, their pokemon were powerful, she was confident her plan would work. All she needed to do was boost emolga's speed enough to charge up the move electro ball.
" Alright in a moment your all going to be attacking that umbrella. Use the most powerful electric moves you've got." Missy released emolga. The pokemon took flight. " Leave the rest to me."
The pokemon soared up and approached the ships. She pointed her screwdriver it let out a hum as emolga transformed into a massive black dragon. The four agents on the roof had shocked reactions. They turned to her apprehensively.
" Keep it together!" he shouted taking charge of his team.
Someone called out an electabuzz. Missy glanced back to see Doctor Zager catch his pokeball. His addition would give the team more than enough power to take down the ships.
" Use agility," Missy commanded.
She looked over the ships. They had split up in an attempt to gain a strategic advantage against the dragon.
Red beams of energy shot through the sky. The laser cannon flanked the cockpit, from what she could tell the pilots had terrible aim.
While emolga charaded as a dragon, the pokemon dodged their shots with the greatest of ease.
This deception was missing something. It took her a second to realize what that was. With a wave of her screwdriver, the dragon released a massive flamethrower. The false flames jetted across the sky and forced the ships back.
Emolga soared between them as the pokemon lead them higher into the sky. The perception filter was keeping up well with its movements. This strategy bought her some more time to build up a proper counter to their attacks.
" Use agility again!" Missy commanded.
Emolga soared higher into the sky as its speed increased. The pokemon turned, then dived between its opponents. The dragon soared over the canopy of the forest before regaining altitude.
The ships cautiously followed the dragon as they chased it.
Missy had seen enough, the pokemon now had enough speed to blast them out of the sky. She began to set up her attack. Her screwdriver lit up as it sent a continuous beam of energy to the umbrella. The beam bounced back to the screwdriver. She directed the ray to Emolga.
She pointed her screwdriver at the tip of the umbrella. She took a step back in preparation for the recoil.
" Everyone attack now!" she shouted.
The team began to command their pokemon to use their strongest electric moves. The umbrella directed the electricity to Missy's screwdriver. The screwdriver directed the lightning into the sky using emolga as a lightning rod.
The attack dispersed as it began to bounce off the ships forming chain lightning. The perception filter sparked as it failed to produce an image. This revealed emolga to the enemy.
" Emolga use electro ball!" she ordered.
The pokemon unleashed a ball of electricity at the nearest ship. The damage it took was great soon it was on fire. Missy directed more lightning to the damaged ship.
The lightning jolted across the sky in a brilliant display. It hit the next closest ship before reaching into the sky. She continued her onslaught as lightning formed a chain releasing into the sky.
She braced herself. " Electro ball!"
The pokemon complied and sent another orb at a ship. She directed more lightning to the ship soon smoke billowed out. The third ship took charge.
It flew over the roof and began to fire energy bullets at her. She dodged to her left leaping out of the path. Missy pointed her screwdriver directing the lightning to the ship's weapon.
The laser gun cracked and sparked as it overloaded. The ship did a circle around the base. Missy continued her onslaught directing more lighting to the craft that attacked her, The lightning bounced from her target to emolga to another ship.
The craft she attacked flanked the others from above. From the bottom, a light illuminated the other ships. Soon the three ships begin to glow in a bright white light. They disappeared in a hazy brilliance. She shuttered in the light but quickly recouped. Missy looked over the forest. She could see no signs of any other threat.
Missy beckoned emolga back. It landed on her shoulder. She took a look around. The look the team had was one of pure amazement. Both them and their pokemon had a hard time grasping the things that just happened.
The young man dressed in grey seemed to be unmoved. He and dragonite glared at her. She shrugged at this. She turned and walked over to Zager and Giovanni. Both men seemed to be astounded.
