Ch 4: A Day Inside Team Skull
Luna's POV
When I entered my motel room, I closed the door shut with my leg and let myself fall on to the couch, a loud sigh escaping my lips. 'When I see those three, I'll kick their asses. No way will I let this stay like this.' I thought with annoyance.
"Zzt, Lu, am I aloud to get out, roto?" I jumped slightly by the new voice but soon remembered I asked Rotom to get in my pouch.
"You can come out." I muttered as I moved so he could be able to get out of my pouch. Once he was out. I let my face meet the couch again.
"Zzt, nice place." He commented. I waved him off, not really in the mood to talk. I just wanted to stay like this for the next hour or so.
My phone suddenly began ringing, not giving me the silence I yearned for. I groaned and threw one of my couch pillows in anger. 'Who the hell is calling now?!??!?!?!??' I thought irritated. I was in no state to answer, so I just let it ring. It continued to ring for the next two minutes before it went silent again. After a minute of silence, I thought it would stay that way but my phone started to ring all over again. I glared towards my phone and took the call.
"Whoever is this, I'll send you right to hell for disturbing m-"
"I see someone didn't see my number." I flinched and sat up.
"Uncle Guzma." I said while eye twitched.
"Come over to the hideout, you have a job." He said. I groaned.
"Why should I go?" I asked.
"Because I say so. Plus, I'll pay you for it." He said. I can't say no to more money. I sighed.
"I'll be there, just, please don't have that lavender smell in your stupid office, or I will go right out the door." I muttered and hung up. "Fuck my life." I grumbled.
"Lu, you going out, roto?" Rotom asked.
"I need to head over to my job." I said as I sighed and stood up from the couch.
"You will stay here with the rest of my Pokémon. They don't cause trouble so you don't need to take care of them." I said as I let out my Pokémon. They all looked at Rotom confused and looked back to me for answers.
"Everyone, Rotom. Rotom, everyone." I introduced them quickly.
"Hello everyone! I'm Luna'z new Rotomdex, roto." Rotom chirped. The rest seemed to find him ok, well, with Mimikyu I wasn't sure, he was just going over to the couch.
"Now, you all know the drill, stay here and don't make a ruckus. I'm speaking to you Lycanroc." I said as I looked at the tallest of my Pokémon. He growled lightly but nodded. "I'll be back in a few hours." I said. All of them knew I was part of Team Skull so they knew what was happening, all except one.
Litten was the one looking around confused, seeking for answers from the rest. Lycanroc just petted him in assurance. He meowed, concerned. I crouched down and petted him as well.
"Don't worry Litten, I'll explain when I get back, to you and Rotom. Now, be a good Pokémon and don't light this place on fire." I said with a small smile. He purred with a nod. I hummed and let him go off to where Mimikyu was. 'They seem to be getting along.'
"Rotom, if anything goes wrong, just call me." I instructed the electronic Pokémon.
"I don't think I have it saved, roto." He said. I showed him my phone, with my number displayed. It took him a few seconds to update his date base but once he did, he have me a thumbs up on his screen. I nodded.
I walked over to my room and began to change. I took off my light blue shirt and replaced it with my dark blue tank top. I took my right earring and replaced it with the other, longer, one. I looked around for my bandana and found it in my backpack. Unclipping my moon choker, I placed on its place the white cloth around my neck. I took off my Z-Ring and placed it on my desk. I reached to open the drawer next, taking a few daggers, and secured them on my belt.
(I thought you guys might want a visual of 'Diana')
'I wonder what I will have to do. Hopefully it will be quick.' I thought as I opened my window. I sneaked myself out and ran off towards the hideout. In a few minutes I arrived at the gate. There were two Team Skull members guarding the gate.
"Yo yo yo, state your name." A demanded. I glared at him. 'Maybe this is the time to get payback.' I thought as I reached for my daggers.
"Yo bro, let her in, it's the Ice Assassin." B said. 'Don't think that will save you.' I thought as they both opened the gate. As I passed them, I got two daggers and threw them towards them, the daggers just grazing their cheeks.
"Next time I will kill you." I threatened as I gave him a death glare. They nodded and I continued walking. Getting inside the hideout, the gazed of the grunts followed me.
"If you have time to stare, then you have time to scurry off towards your jobs!" I snapped. They hurriedly went to different directions, scattering like rats. I clicked my tongue in annoyance and continued walking.
I went up to the 'office' to see Uncle Guzma but instead found Plumeria. We both might be admins, but the orders we follow are different. While she takes orders from Uncle Guzma, I take my main orders from Lusamine. She is sent to help the grunts do their jobs, while I am an assassin under the orders of Lusamine.
"Hey D, your father is at the headquarters so I'll have to give you your job." She said. I think she's the only one who calls Uncle Guzma my father. I call him father when I get mad at him, which is really rare.
"Then shoot, I don't like waiting, P." I muttered.
"Strait to the point, huh? That's what I like about you D. No one can beat you around the bush." She said. I looked at her up and down.
I respected her since she also took care of me, along side Uncle Guzma, and taught me how to fight, the majority at least. She taught me the basics and then I went on by my own. I might be better than her now, I wasn't sure since we haven't spared in a while.
"Yeah whatever. Come on, shoot." I said.
"You and four other grunts, don't worry there's only one male, have to steal a cargo of Moo Moo Milk." She explained.
"Ok, where are we going to steal the cargo?" I asked.
"Well, you have to steal it before they deliver it to the other islands. It located in Akala, Paniola Town. You have to come up with a plan to steal it from there." She explained.
"I rather do this alone." I said, annoyance woven in my words.
"Sorry D, your father's orders. Since you are going to have a partner, you will have to get used to this. I am guessing that is what is going through your father's mind. Meet me at Ula Ula, that's where me and your father are expecting you." She said. I groaned mentally. 'Of course she will know. I wonder how long it will take till whole Team Skull knows.' I thought. I sure didn't want that to happen any time soon. Without saying another word, I turned and left the hide out. Walking out, I saw four grunts waiting for me out side the gate. I was let out and before I spoke to them, I took out the daggers I had thrown earlier from the ground.
"So, Diana, what do we do?" The grunt that I know as Rapp asked. She had pink hair and eyes. She just looked like your regular female grunt. The other two had orange and purple hair, a shade darker than mine. I glanced at the male grunt, C. I glared at him. 'If I attack him here, it would come out as strange and then they will whine about it to Uncle Guzma. I don't need to explain myself for this, too much hassle.' I thought.
"You better not annoy me, or I will have a reason to kill you." I muttered and he nodded. We headed to the docks. We had a boat for our usage there, hidden from everyone's sight. Lusamine provides this for us, which has come in handy multiple times in the past. 'Good thing we have ties with her or we would have had to steal a ferry, that would have been an annoyance.' I thought, as we boarded the boat. I started it and we soon were off towards Akala.
At the docks of Akala, we immediately got off the boat, for the exception of one so we could get away soon after the steal. We can't afford to be caught by the police, maybe I can get out of the captivity of jail, but these idiots couldn't, which meant I would have to help them. I don't want the extra weight on my shoulders.
We sneaked our way through the back of the buildings and dark alleys. After a few twist and turns, we arrived at Paniola Town. It was a tiny town with folk people. There was barely any people out today, making the situation perfect for the job. I looked around and most of the folk were minding their own business.
We walked more until we finally arrived at the ranch. 'Let's just hope that the Fire Trail Captain isn't here, that would be a huge problem.' His family owns the ranch and produce the Moo Moo Milk along with the ice cream the people all enjoy. I'm not too good with sweets, if I'm being honest, so I wouldn't know much about the ice cream.
I turned to the grunts and said, "One of you will distract the one who is taking the cargo and the other two of you will help me with the Moo Moo Milk. The cargo should be in a truck."
The only thing that annoyed me was that I would have to depend on Rapp's driving, since I didn't drive. 'Curse Uncle Guzma. This is what happens when you have an over protective 'father'.' I thought. Let's put this into action.The orange haired grunt went towards the driver and started to flirt with him. He fell right in the trap. 'Stupid males.'
I got a cloth out and a small bottle. I poured some of the liquid over the cloth and handed it to C.
"Now you C use this and put it over his nose." I whispered. He nodded and took the cloth from my hand. He went behind the driver and did as I said. The driver was knocked out in a matter of seconds. I turned to Rapp.
"Now get on the car and take those two." I ordered.
"Yeah we know already, but what about you?" She asked.
"I'll follow right after. I need to make sure there is not evidence that could lead to us, you wouldn't want to go to jail for an idiotic mistake, right? Not to mention, I won't brake you out." I said. She didn't argue and got the two other grunts. They went in and she started the truck.
I scanned the area, no one was present at the moment. I started to run towards the truck when I heard some distant running.
"Hey you there!!! Stop, in the name of the police!" I heard. 'Damn it!' I turned around and saw about five police man. Two hurried over and caught hold of my arms. I didn't let them pull me for I got out of their grasp and kicked one out cold, while the other I took hold of his head and made it crash against my knee, knocking him out as well.
"You will pay for that!" One said.
"We won't go easy on you for being a female." The second one said.
"Ohh fuck you! You stupid males always think you have the ducking upper hand!" I growled. The three charged over to me, poor choice, I dodged them and made them clash into each other.
"Damn You!" The same from just moments ago cursed at me while grabbing my wrist. I glared at him.
"Hands off, you bastard!" I demanded. I ducked down, spun, and kicked them off their feet, the air came out of their chest. I smirked. The other two just stood there. I did a small spin and brought myself up with the mere force of my hands. I kicked one of them in the stomach and they fell like the other three. 'Four down.'
I glared at the last one. He took out a gun and started to shoot. 'He has a brain cell.' I dodged the bullets but one managed to make a wound on me. I took out a dagger and threw it towards the policeman, the gun falling from his hands. I threw another, this one aimed towards his heart. My aim wasn't the greatest, which is why it only landed near his heart, not over it. He fell back in pain.
I walked up to him and glared down. I crouched down and pressed the dagger just slightly.
"Tell anyone about this and I swear that I'll send you right to hell." I sneered. He looked at me with have opened eyelids. I took another dagger, the reflection of the sun shinning right over my eyes. "This is just a demonstration." I added and stabbed the dagger on his foot so he wouldn't be able to walk for a while. He cried in pain but the yell died out in his throat. I smirked in satisfaction.
I stood up and went on the truck, telling Rapp to drive. She immediately did as I ordered and began driving. The grunts didn't peep a word the whole way to the docks of Akala. When we arrived, we began to unload the truck and place it inside the boat. Thankfully it was quite spacious. Once done with that, we made our way to Ula'Ula.
"That went smooth." The grunt now driving the ferry said.
"Who gave you permission to talk?" I asked. She flinched and continued driving.
When we arrived at Ula Ula, I called Plumeria to send over grunts to get the cargo cause I wasn't going to do it. After being done with that, I headed to Po Town, arriving in a matter of minutes. It was raining, like always. I stopped mid way, getting wetter and wetter by the second. I looked up towards the grey sky, letting the tears of the clouds fall down on my face.
'I wonder...how would it have been if my family never were killed by that ultra beast? Would I be like this, an admin to a organization that steals for their own benefit? No. I wonder if there was any way that at least one of my family members survived the attack.' I shook my head. 'What am I thinking, it's just a stupid idea, there's no way they survived, I was just lucky. I should just stop having false hope. Stop dreaming Luna!' I scolded myself. I proceeded my walk until I arrived at the headquarters. Plumeria greeted me.
"Hey D, took your time I see. Your father wants to see you, in his office." Plumeria informed me.
"Tell me something I don't know." I muttered and walked passed her. I went up the stairs and walked some more to arrive at Uncle Guzma's 'Throne Room'. I opened the door and once again smelled the stupid lavender. I gave out a low growl.
"Sit and close the door." He said. I did as he told me. Once the door closed I dragged a chair and sat down. I looked at Uncle Guzma, he was sitting on his 'throne'. 'He could be the king of stupidity.' "You did a good job. Here you earned it." He said tossing a bag with Pokédollars. I caught it with ease.
"Is this it, Cuz I have better things to do than being here with your stupid grunts." I muttered.
"I wanted to talk with you about your partner." He said. I narrowed my eyes. That was not a subject of conversation.
"Did you finally convince Lusamine to let go of that stupid idea?" I asked.
"No, I just wanted to talk about how he is." He said. I stood up and glared daggers at him.
"Do I seem to fucking care about how he is like?!" I growled.
"You will have to deal with this like you have done so for the past years, stop acting like a child!" He snapped.
"Child? Child! You are the one always acting like a child!" I yelled.
"Don't change the subject to me, this about you!" He returned.
"I don't agree with this father and you know it! Fuck that guy and everything else! I don't want a partner for Arceus fucking sake! You go tell Lusamine that she may have saved me but that doesn't give her the right to decide such a stupidity to be forced into my life!" I growled.
"You know very well that no one goes against her! Beware of what you do from now on Luna, because it can cost us our alliance!" He growled back, now also standing. I just continued glaring.
"To hell with the fucking alliance!!!! I am not having a fucking partner!" I snapped. Out voices were raising, greatly.
"You will do as told, you did a vow!" He reminded.
"I have went to death missions before but this I won't do. I am not doing this so you can hide away the fact that you are weak on your own!" I yelled. I then heard the echo of a slap, a slap on my cheek.
Plumeria's POV
I was guarding the door to the bosses office. I could hear an argument but it wasn't like D and Guzma haven't argued before. I saw the enforcer come over, him glaring at some grunts. He stopped right in front of me.
"Guzma said that he wanted to-" he didn't finish because then we heard shouting from the other side of the door.
"To hell with the fucking alliance!!!! I am not having a fucking partner!" D snapped . Their voices were raising much more than usual.
"You will do as told, you did a vow!" Guzma reminded D.
"I have went to death missions before but this I won't do. I am not doing this so you can hide away the fact that you are weak on your own!" D yelled back. Then we heard a slap and a small gasp. My eyes widen slightly. 'What the hell is going on.' I made myself calm down and worry about the problem in front of me. I looked at the enforcer. He seemed surprised, his green eyes said it all.
"You respect me! You will work with him and you will do it no matter what! It's that understood?!" Guzma said.
"As clear as the fucking water!" She growled and the door knob started to turn. I moved as well as the enforcer. The door was kicked right open. D came out with her left cheek red and her eyes full of rage and maybe some tears. This because noted by A and Tupp who went up to her doing their stupid dance.
"Yo yo yo, seems like the Ice Assassin isn't as much of an assassin or as cold as ice any more." A said.
"Yo, you're right, maybe this here cutie should just lay back and leave us real grunts handle the missions." Tupp said. They were trying to provoke her. I glanced at the enforcer and he seemed to not care but his eyes seemed to be troubled. I placed my arm in front of him to prevent him from moving. I know D's little problem and I don't want him to be one of her casualties.
D seemed irritated but she kept her cool. The question is, for how long until she snapped?
"Aww you want to cry and go with your uncle? Well cutie sorry to break it to you but, no one can help." Tupp continued and was about to touch her when she grabbed his wrist and kicked him on the ribs. Tupp fell on the ground in pain, holding his stomach. She the glared at A and pined him on the wall. She took out a dagger and placed it near his throat.
"You two pull the last straw and you will have to pray to Arceus that I don't send you right to hell. Try to provoke me and your death wish will be granted. Their's a strong reason why they call me the Ice Assassin and I can prove it." She warned and pawned the dagger on his hand and he cried in pain. "Let that be a little taste of me, darling. Dare to touch me and you will be sorry." She said and left them.
I went up to her, stopping her on her tracks.
"D you ok?" I asked.
"I just have to get the hell out of here." She muttered and pushed passed me going down the stairs. I looked at her worried.
"Who is she?" I heard a familiar low voice ask. I turned around and saw the enforcer.
"Don't get any ideas kid. As she said, their's a strong reason why they call her the Ice Assassin. She is as cold as ice and can kill every male if it was possible." I muttered.
"Tch, as if." He muttered.
"Go in already and good luck, you'll need it." I said and let him in the office.
-TIME SKIP-
??? POV
I groaned in annoyance. I have to do another job with those stupid grunts! I walked out the hide out, the rain falling over my platinum blonde hair. I saw the girl from earlier, playing with a dagger.
"Fuck this world. I just want to be with my family and go far away from here." I heard her mumble. I didn't try to go up to her, it would be useless anyways and that wouldn't help me at all. I walked away, over to the docks and took the ferry to Akala.
