Gwen had no idea where she was when Tom and she split up. She walked down the hall for a while before two women, Pokemon Protectors, walked in from a branching hallway. "Hey you," said one woman, "you're not supposed to be here. Get her!" The two women charged at Gwen. Afraid, she ran at them. She crashed into the two of them and fell to the floor. A blunt thump echoed throughout the hall as one of the Pokemon Protector's head hit the ground. Gwen started to get up but the other women had already gotten up and kicked Gwen. Gwen collapsed again. Gwen got up and charged at the Pokemon Protector again. The woman stepped to the side and tripped Gwen. Gwen fell and broke her nose. She touched her nose and noticed that it started to bleed.
Gwen was lying down, facing the ceiling when she noticed a brown blur whiz past. Moments later there was an ear shattering scream. Gwen looked up and saw Farfetch'd attacking the Pokemon Protector. Farfetch'd had driven off the Pokemon Protector and started to chase after her. Gwen quickly got up and started to follow, but she was to slow and couldn't catch up. So she continued her search.
Gwen wandered the maze-like corridors for about two hours. She was ready to give up when she came across a door with faint voices coming from it. She slowly opened the door and realized there was another hall that lead to the room. She went down it and stopped at the end. There, the voices could be heard as clear as day, except for that day because a hurricane was going on outside and the harsh winds made it almost impossible to see.
"You bumbling fool, I asked for decafe," said the hoarse voice of Lord Leroy. "Take it back. It is not worthy enough to touch my lips and slide down my throat."
"Yes m'lord," answered a voice. Lord Leroy's servant walked passed Gwen but did not see her. He went into another room.
Many minutes had passed and Lord Leroy's voice called out, "It shouldn't take this long to get me my drink." Lord Leroy's servant came out and delivered his drink and went into the room he came from. Lord Leroy got up and complained, "Why is there this awful taste of almonds in my drink?" He stopped in front of Gwen and looked at her. He jumped and dropped his cup. It smashed on the ground. Lord Leroy startedgasping for airand was clutching his heart. Gwen took advantage of this moment and pushed him down some stairs at the opposite side of the room. He screamed as he fell and then was silent. He was dead.
Lord Leroy's servant snuck up behind Gwen. She turned around and jumped back. She fell down the stairs and cracked her head open. Scared, Lord Leroy's servant ran out of the room. Gwen sat there moaning in pain for a long time. But by the time Tom and the police officers found her, she was dead. The police concluded that Lord Leroy died from cyanide poisoning and Gwen died from severe head trauma.
After that, everything went on as if the Pokemon Protectors never had existed. The Pokemon League reopened and the gym leaders also reopened with the same people as before, except for Roxanne. Since Tom never could make it through the Pokemon League with two Pokemon, he decided to take Roxanne's place as a gym leader in Rustboro City.
