Okay then, new chapter and a new poll. On a scale of one to five how much do you trust Dexter? This question will also be on my profile so vote it up!


"You can't take them, I have direct orders from Commander Mars to get them back to their area." said Vernai with an angry voice.

Steel smirked, showing his razor sharp teeth, "Sorry Verny, this order comes straight from the warden himself..." the Lucario lowered himself so that he was face-to-face with the bug type "and you would't want to openly defy a commanding officer's orders. In here the warden gets final say and he says to bring these two in for a test. Understand?"

Vernai sighed in defeat "Go with him you two, I can't go against an order."

Steel glanced over to Dawn and I and said "You heard her, come on." Everything in my body was telling me not to go, I had no idea what kind of things this Lucario had in store for me and Dawn. But there was no way to get away, I had seen how strong the Lucario is and I was in no rush to get killed.

So despite my inner warnings I went with the Lucario with Dawn sticking close to me. Something wasn't right. Judging from what Mars had said the alarm that had sounded indicated the end of the day and all prisoners were sent back to their holding areas. Steel had said the warden had told him directly to get us but something didn't seem right.

As we made our way down the dark and dim light hallways thoughts of the legendary dogs found their way into my head. What were they doing this whole time. If what Azelf said was true then I would think they'd be actively hunting me down. But so far I haven't even seen them. Maybe Azelf was lying. As my thought's went to Azelf I again wondered why he hadn't done anything to save me? If he was as strong as I thought he was breaking me out of this place would be no problem.

"Umbreon, this is your stop." shouted Steel, snapping me back into reality. We were in front of a metal door, one that looked just like the countless I had seen before.

"What do you mean my stop?" I asked, but Steel ignored me. The Lucario padded over to the door and proceeded to type in some complicated code into a keyboard next to it. Suddenly a very familiar screeching sound emitted from the door as it slowly opened. When it was completly opened I was totally shocked at who was inside.

"Pyro, what are you doing in there?" I demanded. The houndour looked at me with a look of pity, something bad was about to happen. I could feel it.

"Get in the cell Umbreon," spoke Steel. He grabbed me by my chest fur and put me up to his face "Now."

"What are you going to do with Dawn?" I asked with fear tainting my voice.

The Lucario simply smirked " The Purrloin? We have some special treatment for her." with that he tossed me into the cell with ease. Before I could even get to my feet he typed in a code again and the door started to close. As they did I saw Dawn's eye's fill with fear.

Just before the doors had closed completly I shouted "Stay strong Dawn, it'll be alright!" Then the doors were closed and the room was enveloped in darkness. Part of their plan must be to have us in total darkness to scare us, but that didn't work for two reasons. One, we were dark types. We love the dark. And two, even if the dark scared us I had rings that tend to glow in the dark.

"What's going on Pyro?" I asked "What are they going to do to her."

With the dim light I was providing I saw the look of intense regret on his face. The houndour looked down and sighed "Night, do you really want me to tell you? I'm sure you won't like it."

The moment he said that my heart sank and my veins went cold, they were going to do something horrible to her. My heart didn't want to know, but my mind did. However, at that moment I couldn't take knowing the hell those Galactic bastards were going to put Dawn through.

"Is it..., just tell me she'll be okay after all this Pyro." I looked at him with hope "Please just tell me she'll live."

Pyro gritted his teeth and said "She'll live, but... I can't tell you she'll be okay." his body tensed up " If I said that I'd be lying."


"I thought you'd never show up. Do you know how long we've been waiting out here?" said Ace. It was the next morning and I had gone out to meet the rockets from yesterday only to be greeted by that.

"Good to see you too, now if you don't mind I would like to get down to business, the sun's comming up soon." I replied in an annoyed tone. It was around 5 o'clock and therefore very early. Seeing that I went to sleep around 12 I only got five hours of sleep, which is not helpful to my mood. I needed to stay focused though, the information that the Rockets had to offer could be very useful later.

"I could't agree more, so how's about you tell us where the Asylum is?" spoke Crystal. Her cold eyes stared into mine with a look of urgency. She wanted to get this done ASAP and I could respect that, but I also knew she was smart. She wanted me to talk first because she had more to lose. As far as she knew, I had police around to corner just waiting for the signal to jump. I could easily get the info I needed and turn them over to the police after they had no use. It wasn't that she didn't trust me, she just knew the situation.

I love a women that knows how to think.

"Of course, I keep my promises. The Asylum is an underground facility located north east of the city, deep in the forest. I would tell you the location on the map, but the area it is in happens to not be on the map." I frowned "But if you don't know the passcode in I wouldn't even go in the area."

"Passcode, like a key-card?" asked Ace.

I shook my head "It's a spoken code that changes every month, I don't even know what it is. But that info was not part of the deal. I've told you were the asylum is, so tell me about the Alpha Squad."

The sun was coming up by now and I wanted to hurry this interaction up. The last thing I wanted to happen was for me to get caught by someone talking to Rockets.

Crystal smirked and nodded "Sure Espeon, I'll tell you about them."

"Are you sure we should tell him, this is very dangerous information Crystal." whispered the Pidgeotto thinking I couldn't hear him.

The Glaceon shook her head "He's trusted us enough to tell us about the Asylum and we should honor our end of the deal. But, if you're lying about the asylum... lets just say we won't be too happy."

I nodded "Understood, now please continue."

"What you are about to hear is very sensitive info and in the wrong hands could get us into a lot of trouble." said Ace with a defined tone. He was serous about this, they were going to tell me the truth.

"Team Rocket's Alpha squad consists of two highly trained Pokemon that were hand-picked before birth by Giovanni himself to be molded into the perfect solders. Fromm what we know they are 2 of 3 siblings and are very close and trust each other with their lives, so if you were going to try and break them up it won't work." started Crystal.

I sneered "Stop stalling, I already know all of that stuff. I want to know what kind of Pokemon they are, I want to know if the rumors are true."

The Pidgeotto looked surprised by my want to go to the point. Crystal smirked, perhaps impressed by my urgency and continued "The members of Alpha squad are two Eevee evolutions that have yet to be discovered in nature. One is steel type and the other is poison."

I felt my blood pump faster, this was just the kind of info I was looking for. Just needed to dig a little deeper "How is that possible though? Did they give them DNA form poison and steel types at a young age?"

Crystal smirked "I said I would tell you who they are, and I did. That was our deal and I'm holding with it."

Crap she's good. For a moment I wondered if I should try to force the information out of them but I was in no mood for a fight and that wouldn't help the situation at all. I smirked and nodded "Alright then this was very helpful, thank you for the information."

Ace nodded "Likewise..."

I turned to go back into the Pokemon center, but before they were out of ear shout I said "I hope you find your trainers, they seemed like nice humans."


"Okay Dexter, what's the plan?" I asked with anticipation. The next morning had come and I was ready for whatever that day had in store. All of us including Ferne had met up in the lobby of the Pokemon center. Seeing that Jack had called the police force to report Night missing he, Katherine and Desmond had gone down to the police station, leaving us alone to go through with our (Also known as Dexter's) plan.

"Wait a sec Razor... as requested by Ruby here does anyone else have a plan?" asked Dexter in a smart-ass tone. Obviously directing his statement to Ruby he was looking right at her.

The Vulpix rolled her eyes "No... carry on."

Dexter nodded "Good, now pay attention because I don't like repeating myself. Night is being held in a facility run by Team Galactic called 'The Asylum' which is located just outside Cerulean. I know how to get in as well, so that won't be an issue. The only thing is once we are inside we need to be quick and precise in all of our actions. Galactic runs a smooth operation with cameras, patrols and alarm systems. This is a very dangerous job and I want all of you to understand the peril you'll be putting yourself in if you carry it out." he looked around the room at all of us "If this goes wrong very bad things will happen to all of us, Galactic tends to have swift and viscous punishment, okay. Is that understood?"

Vapor, despite the situation, seemed very strong willed and nodded. Jolt, who was next to her, smirked and said "We know what we're getting into mate, now get on with the plan. The rest of us voiced our agreement in the statement.

"Alright then, perfect." said Dexter with a smirk "This is what we're goinna do..."


You seriously thought I would tell you what the plan was? By now you should know that I adore cliffhangers. But fret not, next chapter is gonna be really important. The conclusion of The Asylum is coming, but boy has it been a long ride. I've spent close to 20 chapters in Cerulean city and haven't even gotten to the gym yet!
