'Sloppy...'
Masato stood on a deserted street in Megalos, staring at the remains of what was once half of the city. Masato scowled off into the night, grumbling to himself. He was not impressed. Team Rocket could have been much more strategic and elegant with their plans. Destroying the place that they're trying to take over was defeating the entire purpose of the organization. One of the half-broken street lamps flickered into darkness as Masato took a step forward. He turned to a fellow grunt who gave him a fearful look and muttered,
"M-Mr. Masato. The admin is requesting you watch this area with the new recruits. To help familiarize them with the area."
Masato rolled his eyes and said, "Really...? What a bother. I suppose it has been a quiet night. We don't want any unwanted company roaming our city. Send the newbies. Just in case..." Masato grabbed a black Pokeball from his belt and tossed it in front of him. The ball popped open, releasing a crimson, steel bug Pokemon known as Scizor. Scizor looked at its trainer for commands. Masato muttered, "Bring me the new recruits."

"Bring me the new recruits."
The heels of Felicia's boots made soft thuds on the pavement as she scurried toward Masato. His red bug Pokemon was by his side, making him look even more menacing. Felicia had seen much scarier people after being so close to Team Rocket for most of her life. After all, she was born into it. It was second nature to her. She would follow orders. As she always had. Felicia stopped a few feet away from Masato.
"Mr. Hanari. Scizor. Good to meet you. I'm Felicity. I came from Kanto. Meet my Pokemon."
Felicia grabbed a Pokeball from her belt and opened it, revealing one of her Pokemon, Misdrevus. "Hello there, Angela," she said cheerfully. The Misdreavus floated effortlessly through the air, dancing about. Felicia could tell that Masato was more of a no-nonsense kind of guy, but she didn't care. He wasn't high enough of a rank to stop her from being herself. Then again, nobody was.

Masato looked at the girl with the same grumpy face he had previously had on his face. He was not amused by this girl and her ghost-type Pokemon. He felt confident knowing that his team would have a type advantage against her Pokemon. It would be easier to keep her in line. Not that he would need to. The girl seemed entirely capable of following orders. He sneered slightly,
"Hello, Felicia. Welcome to Megalos. I hope you have found our city to be everything you'd imagined it would be."
He studied her with his eyes, wincing at her atrocious style and alterations made to her uniform. She seemed to find being a rocket "fun" somehow. She was way too cheerful for his taste. Regardless, she was the only grunt who showed up so far and she had a much better Pokemon than the usual Rattatta or Zubat. He looked at her with a puzzled look.
"Felicia. Tell me. Why did you join Team Rocket?"

Sheryl stumbled over rubble, shooting glances all around her. There was debris everywhere. Team Rocket had devastated the area. She was heartbroken. Her fiance's apartment was no more, along with the entire block where it was positioned. His place of employment w as gone as well. Sheryl began sobbing as she walked. She didn't know what to do. She wanted answers. She needed answers. Fury welled up inside her at the sight of two rockets at the edge of the part of the city that wasn't destroyed. Sheryl's face grew a violent shade of crimson and a vein began to become extremely visible on her forehead. She shouted.
"YOU. TEAM ROCKET. HOW DARE YOU!? YOU DID THIS. YOU MONSTERS!"
She grabbed two balls from her belt and threw them. Emolga and Cyndaquil were released from them and stood looking at her confused. Eyes filled with tears she blurted out, "These people! They took him away from me! We can't let them hurt anyone else! We have to stop them!" Looking back at the Rockets she said, "I want answers. NOW!!!" Cyndaquil turned to the Rockets and flames erupted out of his back, indicating that he was battle-ready. Emolga looked a bit worried, but a squeak from Cyndaquil, looked to to Rockets with sparks flying from its cheeks.

"Felicia. Tell me. Why did you join Team Rocket?"
Felicia looked at him and said very simply, "I was born into it. You see, my father worked in Kanto as a--" She was suddenly cut short by the sight of a girl stumbling among the rubble nearby. Felicia's heart began to beat quickly. She blurted out, "Sheryl?" The girl didn't seem to hear her. Sheryl began shouting at them, "YOU. TEAM ROCKET. HOW DARE YOU!? YOU DID THIS. YOU MONSTERS!" Felicia looked at her with a pained expression. She knew that Megalos falling apart was Team Rocket's fault. But it was for the greater good. Team Rocket would help them to make the island great again. Even better in fact.
Felicia stepped forward but stopped when Sheryl let out two of her Pokemon. Felicia fought the urge to comment on how cute they were. She simply pointed at them and said, "I have orders, Sheryl. Team Rocket will make the island great again. Just let it happen. It's for the greater good." She turned to Misdreavus. "Angela. Keep your eye on them." Misdreavus stared the two Pokemon down, creating four orbs of red flame using Will-O-Wisp. They circled around Misdreavus slowly as she watched the two other Pokemon intently.

"Sheryl?"
Who was Sheryl? Masato looked at Felicia and then back to "Sheryl". He scowled even more than usual. Masato was not amused. This "Sheryl" was being loud and emotional. Two things Masato hated. Masato watched as Sheryl began screaming and confronting them with her Pokemon. "I want answers. NOW!!!" Masato grumpily replied, "You don't get answers. This belongs to Team Rocket. The whole island does. So take your cute little vermin and beat it, kid." Felicia seemed to be ready to fight her, amusing Masato. His scowl faded and was replaced by a smug grin.
"I have orders, Sheryl. Team Rocket will make the island great again. Just let it happen. It's for the greater good."
Masato said to Felicia, "Yes. How right you are. Felicia. Angela. Show this girl how strong Team Rocket is. We won't be taken lightly." Without a word, Scizor stepped forward, clicking its claws together. "If you want answers, you're going to have to force us to. We owe you nothing. The people of this island owe us their livelihood. We allow them to persist."

"I have orders, Sheryl. Team Rocket will make the island great again. Just let it happen. It's for the greater good."
'The greater good? The greater good?!' Sheryl's blood was boiling. She couldn't believe that this woman thought anything that has happened was good. People died! People were living in fear! Sheryl composed herself and said, "I can't believe that. I won't believe that. Team Rocket is driven by greed and persists off of fear! I won't let you intimidate me." Her Pokemon made grunts of agreement. Sheryl was caught up in anger and resolve to stop these people. She didn't care who these people were, even if one of them seemed to know her name. Sheryl couldn't place it but the female rocket had something about her that seemed familiar. It didn't matter. They needed to be stopped.
"Yes. How right you are. Felicia. Angela. Show this girl how strong Team Rocket is. We won't be taken lightly." Her name was Felicia... This rang a bell. Sheryl furrowed her brow. Sheryl knew this girl. They had history... "If you want answers, you're going to have to force us to. We owe you nothing. The people of this island owe us their livelihood. We allow them to persist." Sheryl retorted, "You don't! They live because they choose to! It's not your decision! Stop pretending you're gods. You're just like everyone else! What you're doing is inexcusable and I am going to stop you." Sheryl took a deep breath and began to assess the situation. It was a two on one. A battle would ensue regardless and Sheryl's pride wasn't going to let her run away. Her Pokemon were counting on her. She shouted, "Moga, use thunderbolt on Misdreavus!" The flying squirrel lit up with sparks all around and shot a thunderbolt straight for the ghost Pokemon and it's menacing blue fire. Sheryl then shouted, "Bakuhatsu, give Scizor your best ember attack!" The little fire mouse turned its back and spray a flurry of embers at the steel bug.

The electric mouse fired a thunderbolt at Misdreavus but Felicia was not caught off guard and neither was Misdreavus. Misdreavus pulled the will-o-wisps together in front of her to weaken the impact of the attack. Misdreavus fell back a little ways as the blue flames splashed away from her into nothingness. Felicity pointed at Emolga and shouted, "Will-O-Wisp on Emolga!" Misdreavus repeated the move, except this time the blue flames were flung toward the electric mouse in an attempt to burn it. Felicia's expression was cold and showed no sign of emotion. She was a battling machine.

Masato laughed at the girl and her futile attempts at reasoning with them. Felicia was already proving to be an asset with her Misdreavus. It was only a matter of time before the two of them wold have Sheryl finished. Masato laughed maniacally as Cyndaquil shot embers at the Scizor. "Double Team!" The steel bug began moving rapidly until there seemed to be 2 or 3 of them moving around at the same time. With its evasiveness raised, dodging the embers was a simple task. Masato was a bit bothered thst this girl seemed to know that his pokemon was extremely weak to fire. However, he'd have no problem in taking her out. Type advantage or not.

Sheryl was flustered. Both of her attacks were just tossed aside as if they were nothing. Both of her Pokemon were looking determined regardless. Sheryl shouted "Bakuhatsu! Cover Molga!" Cyndaquil nodded and jumped in front of the blue flame being shot at her flying squirrel. They splashed against Cyndaquil. Instead of being burned as the attack had been meant to do, the flames swirled around Cyndaquil and into the flames on its back, increasing the size of it. Sheryl grinned and without hesitation, Cyndaquil shot out amother ember attack with the increased flash fire ability that it had just utilized. Emolga also used this opportunity to fire off at tan other bolt of electricity in the direction of Misdreavus.
