Author's Note: Hey guys it's been a while hasn't it! I'm not dear I swear I'm not. I wanted to apologize immensely for this long delay. I had to go on an unexpected hiatus due to personal things and previous commitments that I promised to help with. I promise that everything is done now and I can focus on this story from now on. This was the last hiatus and delay I promise.
I know there was update a few days ago however there was no actual new chapter If you have been following my story since the last chapter was poster. (To those who haven't and are new I would like to say "Welcome and I hope you've been enjoying the story so far! :D) There was merely a chapter rearrangement to help the plot flow a little more smoothly.
On another note I wanted to let you all know that I have cleaned up and updated all previous chapters in this story over these past few months. Nothing major just grammatical cleaning and adding a few scenes here and there in previous chapters. However the chapters might be worth a re-read because what was now put in is going to affect chapters that are not too far down the road.
Again I am very very sorry for the long wait. I thank you all for your patience and I promise it will not happen again.
I also thank you all for over 100 favorites!
I know this chapter is kind of short however the upcoming ones I promise will be longer.
With nothing left to be said enjoy the new chapter. :)

"What do you mean the door just opened on it's own!?" The angry voice of one of the Cipher Peon's shouted at the peon guarding the door that lead to the under.
"Because that's what happened do you need to get your ears checked!?" The young woman being accused shouted back.
"Don't talk that way to your superior!"
"Being promoted from elevator door guard to headquarter front door guard does not make you my superior!"
"Whatever just get the damn door lock back up and running we need to hurry to the meeting if we're not there Venus' enforcer is going to come down hard on us."
The female peon froze for a moment.
"Oh man she's scarier than Venus sometimes." she said with worry in her voice.
"Yeah she is, so if we don't to be on her bad side, hurry up and get this thing up and running."
Outside I the streets of Pyrite Town Wes, Rui, and their Pokemon walked towards the building that was said to have lead to the under.
"I'm really nervous about this, Wes." Rui said in a worried tone.
"Why?" The young trainer responded.
"Think about it, we're not just going up against a few of Cipher's thugs. We're going to be in a whole city that's full of them and they want our heads."
Wes froze in his tracks.
"Yeah your right about that. We need to be extra careful down there."
"Wes! Rui!" A young voice called out.
Turning around Wes and Rui saw Marcia running there way.
"What is it?" Wes asked her as she stopped in front of them.
"I just wanted to tell you all again to be very careful. The Under is crawling with Cipher's Guards."
"We were just discussing that." Rui said. "We need to find a way to get around down there without being caught."
"Don't worry Not everyone down there is with Cipher." Marcia said with a reassuring smile. "You see The Under used to be a mining town so the place is full of civilians. It's Cipher's headquarters you need to be worried about because that place is heavily guarded. Other than that you should be able move out in the open because nobody outside of Cipher knows about you. Still be cautious because the guards there could be a guard or two off duty hanging around.
Wes and Rui both nodded their heads.
"Thanks for the info." Wes said. "I guess we can be a little more at ease knowing we're not fully in the hornet's nest."
"Alright I let our group in the under know that your coming. Good luck down there." Marcia said before waving goodbye and running off.
Wes and Rui watched her leave before the sandy haired boy turned to the red haired girl beside him.
"Come on let's get down there." He said.
Rui nodded in response and the group continued to make their way to their destination.
The group arrived at the tower however Wes a little further ahead than the others and spotted two people standing in front of the elevator that led down to The Under.
"Stop!" He whispered loudly to Rui and their Pokemon.
Grabbing Rui's wrist he pulled against the side of the building while he laid up against and carefully looked inside the building.
"There the door's fixed and should lock again." The young female said to the man standing above her.
"Good let's get down to The Under and get to the meeting."
The two Cipher members went into the elevator and the door slammed shut before it descended into the darkness below before coming back after a moment empty.
Wes heard everything and growled as he went inside with his group following him.
"Great we're too late."
Rui looked at the Elevator for a moment. Before turning to the boy beside her.
"Why don't we just ask the kids to unlock it for us again." She said.
"There's no point. Cipher would probably discover it again before we get back here and lock the door again." Wes responded while he stared at the door.
"Well how are we going to get inside?" Rui asked.
Wes continued to stare at the door for a moment before getting an idea. He smiled for a second and then grabbed the Poke ball on his belt that had Hariyama inside it. He threw it out and the fighting Pokemon appeared in front of his Master.
Rui looked at Hariyama and then at Wes with a look of confusion. She could see the wheels in his head turning and couldn't help but wonder what he was going to do. Suddenly the pieces started to come together.
"Wes, are you gonna do what I you gonna do what I think your gonna do?" She asked with wide eyes.
She saw a wicked little smirk on her friends face.
"Hariyama..."
The fighter Pokemon turned to his master who pointed at the door.
"Smash"
Hariyama faced the door and with a raised fist punched it making fly off of it's hinges he then picked it up and threw out of the tower.
"Thank You." Wes said before giving his Pokemon a high five and sending him back to his Pokeball.
Rui stared at Rui with mouth hanging wide open.
"Hey look we got the door open." He said while motioning to the now open elevator with a smile on his face.
Rui frowned at him.
"Are you trying to cause trouble before we even get down there?" She asked.
Wes simply smiled innocently before walking into the elevator. Rui shook her head and followed him inside before he pressed the button that pointed down. The group then descended into the darkness below.
When the Elevator came to a stop a gate opened and revealed a girl wearing a frilly pink dress and a purple top hat. She was spinning a cane in her hand.
"Welcome to The Under!" She said cheerfully. "It's been so long since anyone has come down here for a visit! Please enjoy your stay!"
With that the girl skipped away merrily. Wes and Rui just stared at where she was at.
"I guess Marcia was right and we're okay to move around." Rui said.
"I guess we are." Wes responded.
Walking away from the elevator, thr group stepped deeper into The Under.
The Under itself was surprisingly beautiful. There were large building everywhere and almost everything was covered in neon. There were also huge monitors all over town with huge speakers under them.
Wes and Rui looked around in awe until the monitors went black for a moment before revealing a young Woman.
"Hello ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls!" She said happily into a microphone. "It's time for "The Under Time" again today! Without further ado, let's bring out that special someone we've all been waiting for! The beautiful Lady Venus!"
The camera then switched to a beautiful woman with red hair wearing a long and frilly pink and white dress with a pink veil over her face. Wes and Rui could hear the people in the under cheering and several men around them wolf whistling at her.
"Hi Everyone." Venus said in a calm silky smooth voice. "It's me your Venus, Everyone's Venus that's me."
Wes and Rui looked at her surprisingly.
"That's Venus!?" They said in shock.
"I'm afraid I have some terrible news to share with all of you. It seems that there are naughty little spies in the Under. We don't have all of the details but if you see anyone suspicious please let us know. I'm counting on all of you. That is all for today. Until we meet again my lovelies."
Venus blew a kiss at the screen before it faded to black.
Rui covered her mouth with her hands in shock.
"No way...they already know we're here!?" She said in disbelief.
Wes looked just as shocked but remained calm.
"No matter we're just going to have to be extra careful." He said to her. "Come on let's go find this Nett Kid and give him this piece.
Rui nodded her head and went with Wes deeper into The Under.
