Welcome to chapter two of 'The rise of Jorrin' again rated T and I'll warn you if it changes.
When Jorrin had gone the team rocket recruiter walked back to their base hidden a few acres into the mountains that surround Cerulean city. There was a simple chain link fence around a small compound. It looked vaguely military except for the people walking around in team rocket uniforms. Pulling a key from his pocket, he unlocked the gate. Immediately two rocket grunts stepped out of the shadows. "What was all that noise?" Asked the first one, "I need to speak to the lieutenant." Said the recruiter calmly, "She's busy." Said the second grunt a burly man with a short beard and an even shorter temper, "She'll want to know about this." "She's busy and has no time for the likes of you. Now tell us what happened!" "No." The recruiter's voice was cold. "You'll tell us or-" "Or what?" the recruiter interrupted the grunt. The other grunt placed a hand on a poke ball on his belt. "Or it will go hard for you." He said calmly. "Oh really?" Said a feminine voice from the general direction of the command tent.
The recruiter turned walking out of the command tent was an attractive woman who looked to be in her late twenties she had long red hair and incredibly sharp green eyes. She wore a team rocket uniform with the insignia of a lieutenant on its shoulder right next to a badge in the shape of a Beedrilll.
The recruiter snapped to attention and saluted "Lieutenant Hornet!"
She returned his salute but it was obvious her attention was still on the grunts who were both standing at rigid attention sweating slightly. "At ease." She said to the recruiter and he relaxed.
"You two report to the mess hall for dishwashing duty-" She began "But-" One of the grunts interjected "and repeat this activity for the next two weeks or until I tell you different!" She finished annoyed.
"Yes ma'am!" Said the smarter of the two grunts saluting "Won't happen again ma'am!" The other one looked sulky but none the less saluted. "It had better not. Now go." Lieutenant Hornet ordered
The grunts left with all haste.
She turned to the recruiter. "No you tell me what was all that noise coming from the bridge?" "Ma'am you may want to hear this sitting down." Said the recruiter carefully. "Relax I don't intend to shoot the messenger." Said lieutenant Hornet calmly. "Of course not ma'am! But there may be prying ears out here ma'am!" "Very well follow me." Lieutenant Hornet lead the recruiter into the command tent and they both sat down at her desk. "What news do you bring recruiter sergeant Barnubus?" "Ma'am all of our recruits were defeated on the bridge." the recruiter began "What how?" " A single trainer managed to single handedly take down every single one of them." "How! What Poke'mon did he use! What strategy!" Lieutenant Hornet asked rapidly "It was the same teenager who disrupted lieutenant Indigo's project in mount moon." Explained Barnubus carefully, Lieutenant Hornet grinned, "Oh… That trainer! The one who put that upstart brat in her place!" "Yes that's the one ma'am. I knew you disagreed with lieutenant Indigo and that you were and I quote: "Goanna find the brat who took her down and offer him a job." Well I did." Lieutenant Hornet grinned broadly "Good and did he accept ?" "He is looking over our code right at this moment he says he'll have my answer by tomorrow." "Good I want you to tell me exactly what he did and what tactics he used." So recruiter sergeant Barnubus told her the story she didn't interrupt until he reached the point about Jorrin capturing the Goldeen. "Hmmm… Interesting using natural enmity to further his own goals" "Yes Ma'am." "By all means continue." Barnubus finished his report "Fascinating when he comes back to accept the job bring him to me I think I might agree with him. The rank of grunt isn't good enough for this one I have something special in mind. You may go." "Thank you ma'am!" The recruiter saluted and then turned and walked quickly out of the tent.
"You confirm his report?" She asked a figure that had just appeared in the shadows "Yes ma'am it is as he said." Said a voice"Go to the boss and tell him of these happenings." She ordered "Are you sure ma'am? This seems a little mundane for Giovanni." "It won't be for long. But your right. Go and make sure those grunts I punished are doing as they're told." "and if they're not?" "I leave that up to you." The figure saluted with a purple clawed hand "Thank you Miss Hornet." The figure then faded away with a flare of psychic energy. Lieutenant Hornet smiled to herself and walked out of the tent after recruiter Barnubus to get some food at the officer's mess.
Again please review.
