Wes went with his bike to the hideout of team Snaggan he blew up as he left it. By the first look nobody would assume that anybody was still here. But in the message he got it was clear that he had to come here. He entered the building and looked around. Nothing much changed since last time even though the police was here once.

Remembering the route he went into the room where the original Snag-Machine was. The remains of it here still here. He rubbed over the metal of the large machine and smirked. He really did a good job as he used explosives on it. In this moment he remembered he still had some of it left. He wondered if he should use it in the near future if they run into another hideout of Cipher again to cause some ruckus to help the others.

He went to a deep corner of the base and looked for something. If memory serves here was a hidden switch for a secret door. After a few moments the clicking sound indicates that Wes found the switch.

The door opened and he stepped through it. He reached a hall that was the emergency room for the case that they have been found by the police. And indeed several grunts were in this room. But none of them did even move as they noticed him. Which was strange since he betrayed them.

Then one of them moved up to him and didn't bother to say a word. He just indicated Wes to follow him. The trainer nodded and followed him to the room behind the hall. Gonzap, the leader of Snaggan was in there. After the Grunt left he began "Why did you do that to us?"

"I think you know the reason very well Gonzap!" told Wes "And whatever you say it won't change my mind!"

"It is a shame that our best snagger betrayed us! Return the Snag Machine and hand over your Pokémon. Then I will think about forgetting the whole matter and let you go. Your second option is to return to us as lowest ranked and you might be on the top again someday!" told Gonzap

"Then I take option C! I fight you, claim the Shadow Pokémon you possess and get my way out!" replied Wes

"Big words from you! How will you get out of here with so many opponents? And do you really wish to repay my generosity with that?" asked Gonzap

Wes smirked "Like you said! I was on the top! Situations like that are easy to handle for me!"

"Very well! You will get your fight! But after this battle you will beg for mercy!" roared the masculine blank headed leader of Snaggan.

They positioned themselves for the battle and threw their Pokéballs
