Chapter 3

Tomorrow morning wasn't specific enough on the time the five had to get up. At five in the morning a grunt came knocking on their doors shouting at them to get up and this was their final warning. Training started at six. At least they were generous not to wake them minutes before.

Truitt and Kaiser reluctantly rolled out of bed and donned their new dark blue uniforms.

"Dude, you need to get up." Truitt said looking over at the clock seeing it was twenty minutes until training was supposed to start.

"No." Alaric groaned and covered his head with the pillow. "I'll training when I freaking want too and sure as hell ain't going to be at the crack of dawn."

"Don't be late." Kaiser said as he pulled Truitt out the door of their room and down to the arena they were at yesterday.

Alaric simply waved them off and turned over. A snore eventually filled the empty room.

"What's with you two?" Truitt asked as the girls came in minutes before they were to report for training. They both looked like they could fall over asleep any moment and their red uniforms lazily put on. Truitt agreed that six in the morning was too early for training meaning they had to up by at least five-thirty.

"I haven't freaking slept that's what wrong." Emilie growled. "Riky wouldn't put Eevee back in her ball and she kept scratching at the door."

"She was scared and nervous." Rikka defended her Pokémon who was currently in her ball. She then looked around. "Where's Alaric?"

"He didn't get up." Kaiser said. Truitt nodded agreeing with him. Not that tired to get him up, but he made his choice.

"Let me go you stupid mutt!" a voice yelled.

The group turned and saw Arcanine waltz in with Alaric, lazily dressed in his uniform, hanging from his mouth. Arcanine dropped Alaric on the floor and barked. The door opened and Hunter walked in as her boots echoed as she stepped. She looked at the group and despite her glasses they could see an eyebrow raise.

"Get up. Tuck in your shirt." She instructed.

"Make me." Alaric snapped as he got up and stood lazily.

Hunter rolled her eyes. She was getting real tired of his attitude. Arcanine agreed with his master and growled at the boy. He hated having to babysit children as much as she did. She always had one in the group of new recruits. One that thought they were the best of the bunch and flaunted it.

"Get to the other side of field." The five of them began to walk and she said, "Just Alaric."

"Huh?"

"You need to be shown the power of who you are messing with."

"You won't beat me." Alaric smirked as he took out his ball. "Go Tyrogue!"

Tyrogue put up his fist at Hunter. He remembered being captured by her. She was a strong opponent and he would know how she fought if she used her ace.

Hunter smirked as she waved Arcanine back. Arcanine nodded and sat down behind his trainer. He figured as much he wouldn't be battling. He had been with Hunter since she joined the organization. When given to his trainer he was loyal and would protect her. He would do as he was told without a second thought by only her command. He would sit and allow his master to 'show-up' this fool without his aid as proof of her capabilities.

"I have other Pokémon that aren't as trained as Arcanine. Using him would be overkill and you should be given a sliver of a chance." Hunter said as she took out a ball from behind.

"You're not that strong!" Alaric shouted.

Hunter smirked as she tossed the ball and said, "Go!"

"Sno!" The Pokémon said as Snorunt stood ready to fight. The ice type looked over at the fighting type and smirked.

"What's that Pokémon?" Rikka asked.

"I caught this Pokémon in the Hoenn region recently. You see Team Rocket executives have other duties than one you see here. I am one of the few that travel and capture new Pokémon to be transported back here." Hunter explained.

"You're as stupid as you look." Alaric interrupted seeing she had used an ice type against his fighting type.

"We'll see. Do you even know about the Pokémon you were given?" Hunter asked.

"Of course I do!" Alaric shouted.

"What are his moves?"

Alaric's eyes widen. He didn't know. No one ever told him and it wasn't like he could go outside or to a practice field to train the weakling up. He just wanted the thing to evolve.

"Hm. I guess you failed that test. The moves of Tyrogue are currently Low Kick, Fake Out, Tackle, and Foresight. Remember them because I won't tell you again."

Alaric growled and hastily called out, "Low Kick!"

"Ice Shard."

Before Tyrogue could get close to Snorunt the ice type jumped and launched into an ice type attack. The move pelted the fighting type.

"That was a cheap shot." Alaric said angrily.

"Ice Shard is a move that allows me to move first almost every time regardless if you moved first. In case you weren't listening I informed you that Tyrogue knows Fake Out which is also a priority move which you have now wasted. Then it would depend on speed who moved first, probably me because my Snorunt is better trained and naturally has higher speed. Super-effective moves aren't always the key to winning battles. Snorunt use Headbutt!"

"Tackle!" Alaric commanded and the two Pokémon collided and knocked each other back.

"Icy Wind!"

Tyrogue covered his face as the frosty wind iced over his body. He could already feel the ice starting to build on his body.

"Tackle!"

Everyone's eyes widen seeing the difference from the last time he used the move. Tyrogue looked like he was barely running at the ice type.

"What happened?" Rikka asked.

"Double Team!" Hunter commanded.

Before Tyrogue was even close to hitting Snorunt the ice type split into multiple versions. Tyrogue stopped and attempted to brush off the ice and find the real one.

"To even be successful as a trainer, Team Rocket or not, you need to learn about the moves and effects. Icy Wind is a move that may reduce your opponent speed which allowed me to set up a Double Team." Hunter explained. "Headbutt!"

The trainers could only watch as Tyrogue panicked as he then was struck multiple times as Snorunt attacked. After multiple strikes Tyrogue fell to his knees and glared at the two. Snorunt jumped up in the air and landed only to smirk at him.

"Low Kick!"

"Ice Shard!"

Snorunt took the opportunity to jump and attacked with Ice Shard. The ice pelted the fighting type who fell back against the field fainted. Snorunt landed in front of him with the same smirk before turning to Hunter and running to her.

"Sno!" Snorunt cried.

Hunter only nodded before pulling out a ball and returning the victorious Pokémon.

"Now do you see battling effectively?" Hunter asked. "Even at a type disadvantage I easily defeated you. If you battled with your head and not your eyes then maybe you could have defeated me."

"I could have beat you any day." Alaric sneered.

"Obviously not today."

"Whatever."

He wasn't stupid. Team Rocket was like any organization with leaders that worked their way to the position, just like he was going to. Wait until he got stronger and he'd show her who the boss is. However, until that day she was his superior and he knew he didn't have to like her, but he had to respect her and what she taught him. He then silently retuned his fainted Pokémon and placed his ball back on his belt. However, Hunter wasn't done yet.

"Your attitude isn't going to get you anywhere. You have to be smart, tactical, and able to not let your emotions cloud your judgement. Being a strong battler will only get you so far in this organization let alone anything. This goes for any of you. I don't say this because it is written in a lesson plan. Take a look around here and tell me do you see any executive or maybe even grunt doing anything half-assed?"

"You're showing off again!" a voice called up as a clap echoed through the arena. The five trainees turned around to see a tall man in black standing at the doors. They all missed their admin roll her eyes as the green haired walked toward. Arcanine had laid down by the time and raised his head to glare at the new arrival wishing he would burn him.

"He must be a supermodel." Emilie drooled.

Rikka glanced over at the other girl and raised an eyebrow before rolling her eyes.

"I wanted to see how the new trainees were doing. I heard we got good batch of trainers this time around." He said looking each of them other. As his eyes landed on the girls he winked at them. "I'm Proton. I said I should have trained you but apparently the boss agreed Hunter has a gentler touch."

"Gentler?" Alaric said. "Yeah right."

"Or I could train you? Perhaps they need the scarier and crueler touch." He smirked.

Alaric only stared at the ground. Did it matter who trained them? Rikka breathed in relief. Rikka was glad that Hunter was training them if that was the case. She was actually learning about Pokémon battles more than she did on her own and she didn't think Hunter was all that bad if you didn't make her mad. Emilie wished Proton was their commanding trainer so she could just look at him all day. Truitt and Kaiser were indifferent, their trainer was whoever deemed worthy to do so or let alone told.

"I train them just fine. Perhaps what I'm teaching them will do you some good." Hunter said.

Proton glared at the girl before rolling his eyes. She never reacted the way he wanted her too. He hated the fact he could do anything toward her because she just happen to be one of the boss's favorites after Archer and Ariana. He then huffed before turned around and walked toward the door.

"The executives have a meeting. You are dismissed until tomorrow and don't be late." Hunter said glaring at them before leaving going the same direction. Arcanine got up his place on the field and followed his master out.

"What now?" Truitt asked.

"I'm going to go back to sleep." Emilie said as she smiled. Maybe she might dream about that dreamy executive.

"Maybe I can cuddle with Eevee." Rikka said following Emilie out going back to their quarters.

"I have to visit communications." Kaiser said walking out without another word.

Truitt raised an eyebrow at the other boy as he silently left the arena. He shrugged his shoulders and prepared to leave the room as well to turn in early.

"Truitt." He heard his name being called.

"Yeah?" Truitt asked knowing who called his name.

"Was she right?" Alaric asked.

Truitt only stared ahead of him. This wasn't he first time he heard a speech like this and he was sure it wouldn't be the last.

"That's up to you to decide." Truitt said before walking out.

Truitt entered the quarters alone. He took out his ball and released Porygon. Porygon, despite being a little ditsy, was rather intelligent and full of life. The Pokémon was happy to see its trainer and happily floated over to him. Truitt placed a hand on him and the Pokémon looked overjoyed. However, he couldn't help think it was strange. Porygon, and even Rikka's Eevee seemed like rather happy Pokémon despite being under the control of Team Rocket. Any other time he seen their Pokémon they looked evil or sad. On the other hand they could have just been captured and didn't experience hardship.

Kaiser retuned about an hour later looking rather pleased with himself. Although Truitt had no idea what he was doing in communications it seemed to be important. He didn't think that was they were given secondary duties yet; it was still far too early in their training. He guessed it wasn't any of this business.

Alaric came back a little before curfew. Despite this being Team Rocket, new members were required strict hours to determine trust and the fact they had to up so freaking early. Truitt noted his uniform looked a dirty and worse for wear. At least his friend was trying or something got into him. They each settled into their beds preparing to turn in.

The boys eyed the door. Someone was knocking at the door. Who could that be at this time of night? Each of them looked at one another before Truitt rolled his eyes and got up to answer the door. When he pulled the door open he saw a familiar face with puffy red eyes.

"Rikka? What's wrong?"

Rikka sniffled a moment trying to hold back her tears before she exclaimed, "I can't find Eevee!"
