???'s POV:

...That was a damn close one.

"What the heck?! We first came in Kanto and the first thing we see is the damn headquarters of Team Rocket in Viridian City?!" "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW?! I'm NOT A GOD!!!" "AND YOU'RE A FUCKING SUPERMAN FOR DOING THINGS HUMANS CAN'T DO!!!"

...Take a deep breath... Take a deep breath...

"...*inhales and exhales* Okay, let's just get back to the main objective." "...right. Zero... and Ash."

Meanwhile, at the Ketchum Residence... (Zero's POV)

...When will this end.

"So Ash... how long have you know her?" "Uh, Bugsy, can you first put your net down first? I don't want it to pierce my throat." "Come on, dude... Be chill." "Raihan, just let him go. He's just a kid." "Leon's right. I wouldn't even want to make a scene, especially in front of my mom..." "Shut up, mama's boy." "There's no need to fight here... I really hate it. you know~"

And thanks to Milo, Ash got out of the grasp of "the simping fans".

On the other hand...

"You are telling me he helped you a lot? Did he do something intimate at that time? Can you tell more about him?" "Bea, just one question please-" "Please, Serena, I have to know how did all of this happen! What is so hot about you?!" "Girl, you need to calm down, sheesh. I know you're a Fire Gym Leader and all, but-" "Oh bestie, I know this would happen!"

And, somehow, Miette's hug stops the girls from bombarding questions at Serena.

...If I was Larry, I would probably just gonna ignore this... but I'm not him. I'm Zero.

But, to say the least... why do I feel like I was forgetting something?

...

OH SHIT I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT-

Author's POV

Now where are those two?

*Sees a motorbike with two people on it*

Ah, there they are.

"Oi, Author. You know what's going on, right?" Then who the hell you think you're talking to, fucking damn Arceus? "...Fair point. So, it's about time we really need to speed up the process, huh?" shut up and know it yourself, dumbass. "Yeah, whatever Dickhead." You too, Shittyass. Peace.

...Still as ever.

???'s POV

"Sensei...?" "Hmm?" "You looked kinda dozed off before..." "I'm wearing a mask, so how come you guessed it like that?" "...I don't know, my instincts?" "...Yeah, very clever, rookie. 3 years is still very short." "But-" "No buts."

...Geez. What is he even trying to say?

...

"...Calem." "Yes?" "...If there are missions you have to do alone... take that as an opportunity. I told you that many times, did I?" "...You always did." "...Heh. I am."

And, with that conversation ended... here we are. Ash Ketchum's house.

"...Do you think this is-" "You go to Professor Oak's lab, and I'll go and meet Zero. Clear?" "...Got it."

Calem's POV

It's been quite a long time since I got into my own. I mean, it's just a visit... it'll be fine, right?

...Right. No time for jokes.

Hands on the handgrip, sitting on the saddle...

...Take a deep breath...

"...And let's do this."

With that, I ride his motorbike to the Professor's lab.

It was a rather lonely feeling I got, but I know it's for the win. We have to do this, or it'll be bad.

...But what is this watching feeling I got?

...If it's a bad thing that'd happen, I'm not going to be happy.

...

Man, it's been so long ever since me and him met.

I still remember when I was going on a search for Meowstic, who was still an Espurr back then. But, I found him as well. Standing in front of me, like a fearless warrior. I thought of running first... but he stopped me.

I barely remembered what he said to me and what I had said with him... but it's probably something that's changing.

And, in 3 years, I am already so many times stronger.

...I just wish everything would go fine.

Oh! That was fast. Did I thought for that long? I never expect to come so early-

WHAT THE FUCK?!

Author's POV

There are signs of a break in. Door unlocked, messy inside, it was just a chaotic scene.

Taking no time, Calem immediately shakes his head, and run into it to see what was going on.

Back to Calem's POV

What is even happening? Did no one came here and check up on this place?

I'm serious, if it was Team Rocket grunts. I'd be-

...

[In front of Calem are three Elite Team Rocket Grunts, and they were just standing there. The grunts then tried to take out their Pokemons... but Calem was already one step ahead when he killed them each with a slash from his sword.]

*Wipe off the blood and put the sword back in* Dear Arceus, that was close. Does this mean Team Rocket was already on their way to find some information? But what is it?

...I probably should see the documents.

*Picks up the papers that the grunts took* Let's see... Criminals, hated strong trainers, diplomatists... Is this supposed to be the people they want to take into their side?

Not letting them know about this wouldn't be good... they would pretty much guess there is someone that knows their plan, and would probably alert the whole organization.

...I know this is bad... but let's just put it here. There's probably someone who'd check up on, and I could already sense that someone was here.

Author's POV

After seeing his lab is nothing but a mess, Oak immediately go in and see what was happening.

But when he comes in... there were only the lifeless corpses of Team Rocket Grunts. He was still shocked knowing it... but then he walks to his file cabinet. There were files of alarming people of the Pokemon world that is mostly a threat to society, but it looked like as if someone just put it in.

Knowing something, Professor Oak ran all around his lab. But when seeing no one, he ran outside.

"Bulbasaur! Bulbasaur!" "Bulba?" "Did... hah, did you see anyone around here?" "Bulba. Bulba-saur."

Bulbasaur shook it's head, indicating that he saw no one. But, when Professor Oak was thinking who it is... he remembered seeing a motorbike outside his lab entrance. Wasting no time, he ran outside again, but there was nothing except for a few skid marks.

Calem's POV

...Whew, that was a close one. I don't know what would happen if I got caught. Still, why did Team Rocket initiated the plan so early? I thought it was a month later that the plan would go on?

...Oh, I got it now. It was like, a recruit searching, and they want to expand their army, so finding suitable people is the best choice. And where could be better to know about people other than the lab of Professor Oak himself?

But, that aside, I wonder what is Sensei doing now...

A long while later...

Here I am, again at Ash's home.

Maybe entering normal would be fine-

...

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?!?!

*Pauses*

What happened at Ash's house, or in other words, what did Calem see? Something horrible? Something embarrassing? Or is it his "sensei" doing something? Well..

How can you guess? There's no clue to think of something anyway :P

So, with that being said... I'm off. ( ﾟдﾟ)つ Bye
