Blue (POV Shift)

THAT FUCKING CUNT!! Who does Amber think she is? Misty and the other female gym leaders are your birthright. You’ll make her pay for this, you shouldn’t have gone easy on her while she was your ****. You see a crowd of people in front of you. The crowd mumbles gathered around something. You push your way through to the front.

A line of people dressed in black with red R’s on their chest block the path. Behind them a boy battles another black clad man. The man beats the boy at the battle. Then a couple other men surround the boy taking his bag and dumping it out on the ground. They quickly pilfer his possessions taking anything of value. They then take his phone draining his account of all its funds.

“Once again, Mt. Moon is closed due to official Team Rocket business. Anybody who opposes Team Rocket will face dire consequences,” the speaker stands behind the line motioning to the defeated and plundered trainer. The boy gathers what is left of his stuff and sprints out of the cave.

“Get out of my way!” you yell approaching the line of Team Rocket grunts.

“Are you just as deaf as the others? NOBODY IS GETTING THROUGH. The pass is closed for Team Rocket business,” the lead grunt says placing his hand against your chest.

“I’m going through the mountain,” you grab the grunt’s fingers twisting them backwards, “and if you don’t get out of my way, I’ll go through you too.” The man grimaces in pain as you stare him down in anger.

He wrestles his fingers free backing off before throwing out a Koffing. “You’re not going anywhere!”

You throw out Eevee, letting him make quick work of the opposing Koffing. The rest of his team doesn’t fare any better. Having beaten the grunt you grab a bag from the ground as your prize, before making your way further into the cave. “Hey, wait,” you pause looking over your shoulder as the line of grunts turn to follow you.

“No, hold the line. One getting through isn’t as bad as them all getting in,” the defeated grunt calls out but it was already too late. The restless crowd pushed through the broken line charging into the cave. As you walk through the cave you see trainers and grunts battling in every corner.

A couple other grunts challenge you but they don’t stand a chance against your skill and anger. You make your descent further into the cave. Eventually you stumble upon what appears to be a dig site. Team Rocket goons are digging and operating machinery. Work lights shining around the open chasm.

“You must be what all the commotion is about,” a Team Rocket woman approaches you. She towers above you, she must be at close to 7 foot tall. Her straight black hair is cut into a bob around her stern face. “I’m Laura Bullion, an officer among Team Rocket. And you won’t be going any further.”

“I don’t care who you are. I’ll beat you, fuck you, and then be on my way through this cave.” The so-called Officer throws out a Raticate. Your Dratini emerges ready to fight your battle. The drilling noises stop as the grunts around the room stop to stare at the dragon.

“GET BACK TO WORK!” Officer Bullion yells out at her underlings. The sound of drills continues as the battle begins. Dratini and Raticate dance around exchanging blows. The battle is quickly paced with losses on both sides. But eventually you emerge victorious.

The drilling stops again as the grunts are surprised to see their leader beaten by you. “Everyone pack up, we’re leaving,” Officer Bullion calls out.

“Not so fast,” you call out, “I’ve still got a prize to claim.”
