The grunts are all line up and ready for a briefing from Zerx the new head of scientific research for the uprising team flare.
You idiots have all been a pain in my side since the day I took office here failing missions and getting arrested every chance you get. You're like a bunch of children.
(Sigh) I never wanted to be a parent for a bunch of idiots.
But I can finally say that you have done something correctly for once under the guidance of Redal our new Regional operation leader. It seems he has the knack for getting things done being that this is only his second mission he has accomplished more than the whole organisation has in a year of operation since our Ex Bosses plans were foiled by those ignorant kids.
We have a means to an end with the gym leader from the laverre gym.
As Zerx pulled the cover of the cage in the wall that contained an unconscious Valerie half naked in her underwear in the corner.
With her we will finally give that bastard what he deserves for everything he has put us through. Now we wait for the hero to come save the damsel.
Meanwhile at the laverre Pokémon center
As John walks over to the building that wouldn't be thought to be the Pokémon center the way It now looked desecrated and missing its front.
What happened here nurse Joy?
Some Weird red headed people came with their Pokémon and a tall guy with a stern look on his face with red hair and a large scar going across his lip.
Well I will stay and help with the clean-up it certainly looks like big job.
I was coming back to see if a woman I was with yesterday is safe and okay, I got a bad feeling something was wrong and amiss so I came back to find out for myself do you know a woman who has...
Nurse joy immediately interrupts saying, that was you who she was getting dressed up for yesterday I caught a glimpse of you picking her up yesterday. They took her as she was coming out of the shower about 3 hours ago it seemed like she was there target.
No way I didn't think they would make their move so fast seems I have underestimated their abilities; Team flare needs to go once and for all I'm tired of being targeted for fighting for my family and friends.
Sorry nurse Joy but I need to go and save Valerie, god knows what they could have done to her to get to me. I'll come back and help out with something else another time but I'm needed at the moment.
Its ok I understand I have some towns people coming to help clean-up as well as some Pokémon. Go and get her back she deserves better than this, she is such a kind soul to Pokémon and people.
As John rushed outside calling for his Milotic to take him to where he believes is the flare hideout.
I will get you back with me Valerie I wont let them take you away from me too.
At the Flare Hideout
Valerie slowly wakes up after being knocked out by the flare boss.
W-What happened to me where am I..
Your finally awake. That's good I was worried you might have taken a concussion of the way they threw you in here.
As Valerie's eyes opened she saw a dirtied girl who looked around Nineteen to Twenty years old Long White Hair and a fringe that fell perfectly above her eyebrows and a braid going around the back. The girl had Aqua Blue eyes and a Beautiful face, she seems to have a been caught by the same people that caught Valerie.
Who are you?
My Name is Ava Whitesong I have been here for a few months as I stumbled upon this cave and got nosy. Now I'm stuck here and they treat me like a pet throwing food at me and laughing it makes me feel so ashamed to be in the position I am in. I overheard the grunts on guard say that they are going to sell me and my Pokémon to a rich noble from another country and make a killing. But I don't want any of that to happen. Anyways! Lets change the tone? whats your name.
My name is Valerie and I am the gym leader of Laverre City. I cant believe this has been happening, I'm sorry you have to go through that for the sake of some scum, but we will make it out of here Ava don't worry.
You Promise?
I promise we will make it out somehow or other.
If you think you will make it out of here then your chances are bleak at best. You two are a means to an end you will be used to benefit our organisation.
The Voice emanated from around the corner and got closer and closer till she was in view.
Why are you doing this to people what is your problem? Human trafficking is illegal and can never be forgiven.
Why poor little Ava is just a prize that a wealthy buyer wants to purchase I can't imagine what for and quite frankly I don't care. That girl will fund our projects for the next 20 years.
IM NOT A PRIZE! LET ME GO I WANT TO GO HOME!
Well want all you want but you're not going anywhere.
Ava calm down don't listen to her.
Valerie hugs Ava to calm her down.
You my dear you're here for another reason, we want him.
Him? You mean John? Why?
He has something that belongs to us it's something of great importance to us and we would like to get it back. It's a Necklace with an illusion mechanism on it. It has the ability to merge dimensions and create new ones. We intend to use it to revamp the land in this region and become its rulers so we can fund our mission to take over the entire Pokémon world.
What your crazy do you know how many innocent people and Pokémon could get hurt for messing with stuff like that you're not a god none of you are you can't just mess with the flow of nature and expect to get away with it unscathed.
Oh, that's where your wrong we have spent the last year developing a device that will mitigate the lash back that the dimensional clash will create it's called the D-System and it will only mitigate the effects for the people and Pokémon we choose. So, we plan on making a killing selling spots to the wealthy for their protection. And your little boyfriend is going to be the one that hands it to us. After that we will kill him and his Pokémon.
Like He would ever let that happen he's stronger than you know he is be prepared for what's to come.
Oh, you're a silly girl that's where you come in, you really think that he's going to try anything when your life is on the line? He will give in and he won't be a bother anymore.
As Zerx walks away Valerie Starts to worry about John and his safety and Ava tries to keep her from worrying by stroking her head.
Flying through the woods at high speeds John is checking each of the last 3 Flare bases he has raided for Valerie...
