With Team Rocket…

"How do you think he'll react?!" James asked.

"I don't know, but I don't think it'll be pretty" Jessie answered.

"Just brace urselves" Meowth said.

"Hush! He's coming on right now" Missile ordered.

The computer turned on, and Giovanni was there.

"You have disappointed me"

"I know but-"

"No buts, you are a good agent, so you will not be punished"

"Okay"

"Your report told us that Team Plasma is heading towards Castelia City, we will intercept them there, and take them out, Missile, I want you to head there, and stand by, you will come in use later"

"And what do you want us to do?" Meowth asked the boss.

"Head there, scout out the area, I expect a new report by tomorrow, we will attack the morning afterwards"

The computer than shut off.

"Well I guess I have to go" Missile said.

"Wait Derik, it will be pretty borin standin out there all day won't it?" Meowth asked.

"Yeah, and?" Derik replied.

"Well we've been thinkin, howz about it if we hung out, ya know" Meowth suggested.

"Yeah, it'll be fun!" Jessie said.

"And you get to know the place better" James added.

"Hmm" Missile thought about it for a while before saying, "I'll think about it" He then put on his helmet, and left for Castelia City.

"Darn, wuz hopin fer a ride" Meowth said disappointed.

"And because he's our colleague" James said

"Yeah that too" Meowth said.

"Well no use standing around, might as well get going!" Jessie said.

"I kinda wanna sleep, but knowin you ya probably wake me up anyway" Meowth said.

"Yeah, it's always like that" James said.

"Come on let's go!" Jessie grabbed James, and Meowth, and took off.

"Looks like Team Rocket's running off again!"


In Castelia City…

It was late at night, even with a jet pack, it still took quite a while to fly to Castelia City, Missile landed on a roof before, activating his disguise, which kept his white hair, and crimson eyes, but swapped his uniform for a more casual T shirt, and cargo pants, he also had an open black leather jacket, because that's just cool, he jumped down, and landed safely, even though it doesn't look like it he's still wearing his armor underneath.

"Castelia City huh, haven't been here in a while, let's see if it's still here"

Derik walked around to find a donut shop, it was a small establishment, and was pretty much empty, he walked in, and immediately the smell of donuts hit his face, bringing back memories.

*flashback*

It was a bright sunny day in Castelia City, and a young white haired, crimson eyed boy was walking around the streets, he had pretty dilapidated clothes, and was holding a dollar bill, he walked into a donut shop.

"One chocolate sprinkle donut" The boy asked the man behind the counter.

"Ah Derik, I see your back" Derik handed the man the dollar, but the man refused, saying "Nah, you can have this donut for free, you kinda need it" The man handed Derik the donut, free of charge.

"Thanks" Derik then left.

*flashback end*

"Hey sir, you coming to buy something?" A woman asked.

"No" Derik then left as suddenly as he entered.

Derik went around some more, before finding a newspaper, it read Team Rocket, spotted in Striaton City? Sinnoh champ fends them off. Derik, knew exactly who the article was talking about, and then, threw it away, he then remembered how he ended up in Team Rocket in the first place.

*flashback*

"You sure you wanna do this kid?" A man asked.

"Yes" said a 17 year old Derik.

"Are you absolutely sure? This is a life changing choice here"

"Yes, I'm tired of being poor, I need this, and plus I can't lose much else"

"Alright then, I'll call up the boss, see what he thinks"

*flashback end*

Derik was really good at his job, like really good, he quickly climbed up the ranks, to become a top agent at the age of 18, becoming the youngest, and fastest agent to do so, by now he was only 20 years old, and had done a lot.

Derik went around the City, before stumbling upon a tossed pokeball, he picked up. Oh how hopeless I was then. Derik thought to himself. Poor, friendless, No family, nothing, just a nobody. *sigh* Until you came, you changed everything, you were my everything, my first friend, but then you left. Why? Was it how I treated you? Was that it? Will I ever find you? I guess I could check Striaton City, that's where I saw you last after all, but then again who knows, maybe I'll never know, if you're out there I just want you to come back, and I'll do anything to make it happen, even if you don't want it to.

Derik threw the pokeball away, and headed off to find a good place to hide.

*flashback*

"These are the three starter pokemon you can pick either Tepig, Oshawott, or Snivy" Proffesor Juniper said, to a Ten year old Derik.

Derik inspected the three pokemon, Tepig seemed a little dumb, and not battle ready, Oshawott looked excited, too excited, don't think he'd make a good partner, but Snivy she seemed serious, and strong.

"So who do you chose?"

"I think, I'll chose-"

*flashback end*
