ReignZ Presents… 10 Minutes Chapter 31
Last Chapter…
Flashes... flashes... and more flashes. That's about all Alpha and Omega could see. Ash took a deep breath as he answered the next question. The press just didn't want to let up on him. Omega was nearby too, also answering questions. An hour hadpassedsince the landslide victory against the heavily outmatchedCilanand Iris. Ash saw his friend pettingDelveon'sfur and saw her protectively cuddling against his leg, defending him as though they would harm her trainer. Ash looked for the electric mouse he called his partner andsweatdroppedwhen he saw his faithful partner posing for the press as though he was a famous model.

"But then, I met you. And you didn't try to convince me to stay with you, you never pled your love to me, you SAVED me! And that, without knowing who I was! You could've tried catching the Legendary Pokémon instead of rescuing me, and you did anyway. You could've been killed, injured, or even erased from existence. Yet still… you chose to save me." Cynthia smiled a little.
Cynthia looked at Ash. "The Psychic told me that the person I would learn to love would have an endless supply of one thing; can you guess what it is?" She asked. Before Ash could answer, she answered it for him.
"Humility. It consists of love, friendship, passion, selflessness, and happiness. When I saw you after you saved me, I saw your battle with the girls. I saw your love and passion for battling. I saw your friendship with John. I knew of your selflessness from when you saved my life. I saw how happy you were just being one thing; you." She smiled. "That's why I'm here with you Ash. You know what you want and don't even think about the physical things in life, you just focus on how to make the world a better place for everyone, and I think I speak for the world when I say, thank you."
Ash was blushing a bit at the praise and didn't notice Cynthia nervously biting her lip.

John heard a chuckle from outside. It was obviously Ash.
He walked over to the door and opened it without thinking to knock. He began, "Ash we gotta…" before he realized he had walked in on a heated moment between Ash and Cynthia. He saw his friend already partly unclothed, missing his pants and only in a white T-Shirt. He saw Cynthia in only her bra and panties. Clearly, things had been about to escalate. Ash was a little mortified while Cynthia used her hair to cover an obvious blush that was spreading across her entire face. John chuckled. "Bad Time?"
Ash laughed. "Nah, what gave you that idea?" He said sarcastically. John smirked a bit and replied. "Come on inside once you're PG again, we need to chat."
/
John told him. "It's an emergency. They've spotted the son of Giovanni in the area." Ash was taken aback. "Giovanni-" He began before he was cut off by John. "- had a son? Yeah, it took me by as much surprise as it's probably taken you, didn't even know about it." John said taking Ash's words straight out of his mouth.
Ash was about to respond when John's phone rang once again."Hello?" John picked it up. His eyes widened a little after a few seconds. "Sure, we'll be right there!" He rapidly hung up the phone.
"Time to go!" He urgently said. Cynthia was lost. "Where to?"John answered. "LOS HQ. They've captured Razzo."
Present…
"Alpha, Omega. Good to see you both." Porter was the first to greet the two hooded warriors as they entered the LOS Leader Conference Room. Ash and John walked in and immediately saw Gary, Charles, and Keeghan, also waiting for them. They did not see Brittney. Ash was about to say something when, "Where the hell is Jones?" Gary said in annoyance.
"She hasn't checked in yet from her mission." Porter said with small bags under his eyes. It was past midnight on the day after Ash and John had defeated Iris and Cilan. After Porter had told them that Razzo had been caught, they immediately put on their outfits and traveled to the LOS HQ. The hooded duo walked into the room and saw Gary talking to a young female at the computer whilst pointing at the screen, presumably trying to find something. Charles was stroking a Zorua's fur, his own Pokémon. Keeghan was resting with his back against a nearby wall with his hands behind his head. Ash asked.
Brittney, meanwhile, was still returning from capturing Razzo, or at least, attempting to capture him. She had yet to check in, but it was not uncommon for her to go AWOL for a few short hours. Gary stood up from the computer and stopped talking to the girl. He told them. "We're gonna start the interrogation process now. Charles, you, Porter, Keeghan, and Omega head in there and begin the interrogation process."
"Will do." Porter banged his chest in salute and walked back into the "Main" area of LOS HQ and proceeded to the holding cells, with Charles and Keeghan in pursuit. John looked a bit uneasy. "Why isn't Alpha going? Come to think of it, why aren't YOU going?" He questioned curiously. Gary told him.
"I'm staying back for a little while longer to try and locate Jones, she goes AWOL like this every once and a while but still it's never common, plus she never told us where she was going to be, so I'm just making sure all of my operatives are in tip-top shape, alive and well." He told John of his whereabouts. Gary turned to Ash and spoke to him.
"I have a special assignment for Ash here. Don't worry Omega, you won't be missing too much if things go according to plan. I need you to go into the interrogation room and try to pry some stuff out of old Razzo, hopefully he can play a huge part in the role of stopping Team Rocket once and for all." John looked just a tad bit skeptical but agreed reluctantly and followed the rest of the Operatives.
Gary began to explain to Ash what he needed to be done. "From what John said, you didn't get too much of a rundown because your mind was buried in something else, or someone else." Gary chuckled lightly at this while Ash scratched his head awkwardly and laughed. "Yeah, not my finest moment."
The brown-haired boy grinned faintly. "Hey don't sweat it! I just want to give you a more advanced rundown of what happened." Ash listened intently as Gary began.
"According to Jones, she reported she saw him at a shady motel happily smoking a cigarette on the front porch just outside Cerulean City. She had been hiding in some brush when he noticed her spying on him. She said she saw him go back inside the building and disappear for a few minutes when all of the sudden she spotted a vehicle speeding out of the motel at a rapid pace." Gary spoke.
Ash was curious. "Am I the only one who currently knows this?"
"Other than me? Yes. It's confidential at the brief moment." Gary told him. "Continuing, she tracked him for miles after hopping into her own vehicle until she lost him around Saffron City's Eastern Exit. We managed to regain eyes on him about 30 minutes after we lost track of him. He had sped all the way to Violet Town. We called up some of our Operatives in Violet Town, thank goodness they weren't asleep, and asked if they could do an assignment for us. They agreed, took out his grunts in a battle or two, and then captured him. Charles and Keeghan personally escorted Razzo back to LOS HQ. We had contacted you and Omega just mere moments before I received word of Razzo's capture."
Ash blinked. "Why did you not contact us first?"
It was Gary's turn to blink. "Because you just had a battle and press conference that took you hours to do, we felt as though you may have needed a little sleep. However, once we learned of the dire situation Razzo was in, we figured it was best to contact you."
Ash was still not completely convinced. "Why would you contact us and telling us to be alert for Razzo if he was all the way in Violet Town?"
Gary nodded a bit. "Understandable. The Simple way to put this was to be alert of OTHER Rocket sightings. If such a high-ranking member were to be under attack, Rocket may have Retaliated swiftly, so we wanted you to be on your toes."
Ash sighed. "So then, what's my mission?"
Gary ordered. "Go back to the original spot where Razzo was located. See if you can uncover anything useful that may be of use. According to Jones before we lost contact with her just recently, he didn't have a lot of time to pack, so there's a good chance he left something behind. Here are the coordinates of your location." Gary handed Ash a small package to which Ash carefully peered inside.
Inside was what appeared to be a micro camera, a map of the area outside Cerulean City, and a pair of binders. Ash blinked. "Why the binders?"
Gary chuckled a little mysteriously. "Can never be too safe, now can you?"
Ash chuckled back a little nervously. "Heh… you're kidding right?"
Gary's face changed. "No, I'm not, this is serious."
Later that Night…
"Serious? Yeah, Seriously Boring." A voice muttered.
Ash currently found himself in some thick brush, his face covered in dark green and black paint to camouflage himself. Gary had recommended that he shouldn't wear his black robes because Team Rocket shouldn't have known that Alpha and Omega are threatening them by joining the Legion. Ash also wore an elite visor that allowed him to see through thin objects.
He had been staking out and watching the location and room that Daniel Razzo had once been in. However, with that said, he had been staking out the location for two HOURS. It was past 5 in the morning, and Ash couldn't have been more exhausted. Just as he was going to have to tap into his Aura to keep him from falling into a deep sleep, two men in black costumes suddenly walked up to the door.
"Showtime." Ash muttered happily. However, he made the mistake of shuffling to get a better view, forgetting he already was wearing a visor that allowed him to see everything. The movement caused some leaves beneath the brush to rustle. Even though Ash had immediately halted his movement, the movement did not go unheard by the grunts.
"Hey! Who's there?" The one closest to Ash yelled. He whipped out a small flashlight and begin to shine the beam all over the area Ash was hiding in. Ash debated whether or not he should move, but decided against it, thinking that moving once already had brought him unwanted attention, there was no reason to give them another reason to investigate the source of the noise.
He remained silent. The grunt flashed the light over him twice, but because of the brush covering him, they did not notice his presence. They slowly let their guard down and allowed Ash for a little breathing room, much to his relief. He watched carefully as he saw one of the men go inside while the other kept watch.
He crept out of his hiding spot as slowly as he could. Just as he was about to get the jump on the grunt, "Hey Billy! I need your…" The second grunt had walked out of the room and startled Ash and caught him off guard. He noticed the stealthy intruder not far from his partner.
"Hey! You! You're Dead!" He yelled. His Partner, presumably Billy, whirled around and took notice of the man as well. He yelled. "Mightyena, Lock and Load!" The other man cried. "Drapion, eliminate them!"
The giant bug and the attack dog appeared in a small flash of light and snarled at their opponent while Ash dug in for a battle. "Bisharp and Gardevoir, I need your Assistance!"
A human-like Pokémon took the field aside from a shady and yet shiny steel type. The two looked at one another and blinked. Mightyena smirked at them as it attempted to intimidate it's opponents. Bisharp just looked bored while Gardevoir's face never broke a sweat. This equally surprised and annoyed Mighteyna.
'Why the sudden battle Master?' Gardevoir telepathically spoke.
'Time for a lil' ass kicking session.' Bisharp spoke with sarcastic glee laced into his voice. Ash chuckled. "We just gotta take out the trash." His Pokémon nodded at their master and awaited their orders.
"Drapion, Use your Cross Poison Attack!" One grunt ordered. "Mightyena, Use Crunch!" Billy commanded.
Drapion's arms glowed a light purple before rushing the duo while Mightyena's jaws glowed white and charged the two as well. Ash didn't panic once.
"Gardevoir, Use Double Team to Distract the two of them. Keep their attention off Bisharp." Ash ordered calmly. Gardevoir made copies of itself and appeared all over the battlefield, which was just the parking lot to the Motel. Drapion stumbled and hesitated in confusion when it noticed the multiple copies while Mightyena chomped down on a copy of Gardevoir and hit the dust. It got up and blinked in surprise.
Ash called out. "Time for Swords Dance!"
Bisharp's arms glowed a faint red and then a small Aura burst erupted from Bisharp and flashed, signaling the stat increase. Bisharp smirked at its opponents through the copies, being able to sense the area of said opponents thanks to Aura.
The grunts growled and retaliated at the mystery trainer. "Mightyena, use Dark Pulse and unload it at every copy!"
"Drapion, Use Pin Missile!"
Mightyena formed a ball of dark energy in its mouth and unleashed it at all the copies in its path. It snapped through copy after copy. And Yet, Ash's calm gaze never left his unwavering eyes. Drapion roared after charging up the powerful bug type move. The explosions that followed destroyed the rest of the copies, leaving one Gardevoir left right in front of them.
"Crunch Mightyena!" The dog raced towards the human-like Pokémon and Ash smirked as he gave his command.
"Teleport." In the blink of an eye, Gardevoir Vanished. Mightyena staggered in surprise before it reappeared randomly behind Drapion.
"Icy Wind into a Misty Terrain." Ash ordered. The grunts could only blink in shock as the ice type move swept into their Pokémon, making the two Dark types cry in pain. Then, a mystical fog crept up from the ground and dimmed the vision of Ash's two opponents. They stared around in bewilderment, unable to see much of anything.
"Bisharp, Use Laser Focus." Through the fog, Mightyena and Drapion could only pale as they saw a pair of bright red eyes light up. The grunts had never heard of the move before, and could only wince as they heard the next command.
"X-Scissor."
In just a few short seconds, the red light's flickered off. Then, Bisharp appeared straight in front of Mightyena, carved through it like a mushy Jack-O-Lantern, and then disappeared once more. Mightyena swayed in place slowly before collapsing on its side.
"D-Drapion, Use Pin Missile!" The Grunt yelled desperately.
"No No No, Sucker Punch!" Before Drapion could unleash the spiny missiles from its body, Bisharp swept by and smashed its sharp claw into Drapion's side, making it cry in pain before once more disappearing. Drapion formed the missiles but then winced and fell down slightly, the attack totally breaking formation.
"Gardevoir, finish it with Moonblast." All the grunts could do was watch as the moon's rays from high in the sky were practically dragged down and carved through the mystical fog like a knife. They also watched as a glow appeared inside the fog and then got sent towards a target. An explosion sent the Fog scattering away. But one more look also told them the battle was very much over, seeing both their crippled Pokémon.
They looked at one another before returning their Pokémon in sync and fleeing at once. Ash laughed a little at his opponents and returned his own Pokémon before Pikachu came out of the bushes rubbing his eyes, presumably falling asleep while on the stakeout.
"Have a good nap sleeping beauty?" Ash laughed. Pikachu grumbled something incoherent before the two walked into the hotel room. Ash stopped laughing at his exhausted partner and groaned once he had entered the room. Pillows were on the floor, the bedsheets were a mess, a swivel chair was knocked over on the ground, paintings were carved into pieces, and much other destruction was noted. Ash moaned.
How was he going to figure out anything if it was all a mess?
He searched for something that would give him an idea of what he was supposed to be looking for, but as he expected, he was coming up completely emptyhanded. He sighed and sat down on one of the beds after an hour of searching and the sun was beginning to rise. Just then, his phone rang.
He disguised his voice and said. "Hello?"
"It's Omega. Get your Ass Back to HQ Now."
LOS HQ… Twenty Minutes Later…
Ash jogged into the HQ room now wearing his black robes and saw Charles, Porter, Keeghan, and John all standing there wearing similar looks of disgust. Ash looked around, Gary was nowhere to be seen. He asked the inevitable question.
"Any Developments?"
The four looked at one another before Charles broke the ice. "Absolutely fucking nothing." Ash was a little surprised at Charles outburst before Keeghan cut in. "What he means is that we've literally been trying to talk sense into him and with him for THREE HOURS. We tried every method we could think of. Hell even John tried to use Aura or some shit to mind control him!" Ash looked at his friend who scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "Hey it worked in Star Wars!" Ash chuckled a little.
Keeghan continued. "The dude won't budge. He flat out refuses to talk to anyone, and I mean ANYONE! We tried one on one conversations, two on one, all four of us, nothing works! What's worse is that Gary is our best interrogator, and he's hellbent on finding Jones!"
Ash gawked. "She still hasn't checked in?"
"No. That's why Gary is acting like a madman right now." He jerked his thumb behind his left shoulder and Ash saw Gary rapidly typing into a computer while commanding some of the LOS analysts to do something. Ash had to wonder.
"Is there something between Jones and Gary? I mean…" Ash started before Porter cut him off. "A lot of people have asked that Alpha and no, there isn't. The reason Gary is hellbent on finding her is because she is most certainly our most elite field agent. She can battle, she can fistfight, she can parkour, and she plays a vital role in our operation here at the SOLT. If anything happens to her our Operation here and the entire LOS alone would take a major hit." He explained.
And just then, as if by Magic, the power went out for a brief moment. Everyone gasped and looked around wildly in a dazed panic. Then, after two or three moments, the power flicked back on, but on all the computers and electronic devices was a picture. It was a picture of the back of a blond haired girl in a ponytail. She looked very attractive even though you couldn't see her back, you could just tell. Under the picture, read the words.
"We have Ms. Jones. You will give us Mr. Razzo back in 24 hours before she is executed. You know where to drop him off. Do not be late."
At this exact moment, Gary stood up and sped-walked down the corridor towards the interrogation room. Charles chuckled to Keeghan. "That's one way to finally kick his ass into gear." But they didn't notice just how angry he was. Porter, however, did. He had seen Gary before like this, and it wasn't gonna be pretty for the guy that he was gonna cream. "Gary, Hold Up!" He yelled before sprinting after him.
Gary raced into the interrogation room and drilled his fist straight into the face of a totally shocked Daniel Razzo. He fell backwards and out of his chair, totally at a loss for actions and words alike. Gary had a menacing look in his eyes as he wound up another punch before Porter raced in and grabbed his arm.
"GARY! STOP!" Daniel's eyes widened when he heard that. Meanwhile, Gary pushed Porter off of him and he fell down in a heap on the ground before bounding back to his feet. Gary snarled at Daniel but just as he was about to lay down another strike on the defenseless young man.
"THE SUN IS THE LIGHT THAT CLEANSES THE DAY!" Someone cried. Everything turned eerily silent. Charles, Keeghan, John, and Ash had all gathered at the outside of the doorway and were stunned at who the statement came from. Porter had appeared to regain his senses. However, none of the more shocked looks came from none other than Gary Oak Himself. He stared at the man who had uttered the sentence as loudly as he could.
Daniel Razzo. The man who had not said a word in three hour's worth of interrogation. The man breathed in and out for a moment before saying again. "The Sun is the Light that Cleanses the Day." He briefly paused before speaking again. "The Moon is the Light that Protects the Night." He finished slowly. "And… The Legion is the One thing that binds both Night and Day together, to ensure peace from terror, now… and forever."
The eerie silence had once again taken control of all the men in the room. Ash and John looked at each other and blinked. Keeghan had a confused glance in his eyes. Charles was shocked by his outburst while Porter decided to break the silence with a very well timed. "What the Fuck!?"
He rushed the Rocket Member before…
"ENOUGH!" The voice made Porter stop dead in his tracks. It had come from Gary. His eyes read an unreadable expression but his whole body appeared to be etched with curiosity.
"…Who are You?" The man stood up slowly and said. "I am Daniel Razzo, Son of Giovanni." Gary spoke his lines calmly. "And what is your duty, S?" Before the other elite LOS Agents could comprehend what Gary meant by S, Daniel Spoke.
"S is for the Salvation of the entire Pokémon world, to rid the entire galaxy of the filth that is Team Rocket. S… Is Savior!" He said.
The entire room came to the realization at the same time when they recalled the codename of the person who was supplying them inside information on Team Rocket. Daniel Razzo was Savior.
AN: And that wraps up the chapter! This was a long one too, small battle, as promised. Next Chapter should have a lemon, and the one after that has a VERY Special Battle that you all will absolutely LOVE!
Oh By the Way, the move I used in the battle "Laser Focus" isn't made up. It guarantees the next move the user uses will be a critical hit. For a physical Pokémon such as Bisharp, it certainly comes in handy. I'm sure a good number of readers know about this move, but I didn't even know about it because I haven't watched the Alola series or anything past Pokémon Sun and Moon.
