Aster stormed into his room, slamming the door. "She disappears like that two years ago, and shows up NOW?!" he healed his pokemon and roared into a pillow. "Tsk tsk tsk, you need to chill out" he looked up, Star was smirking at him. "Shut up, get out, and dont show your face here again" "Pft, like that is gonna happen" she twirled her hair. "What do you want anyway?" "The boss tells me that you have some, information, so to speak, on our little friend" she showed a picture of a small green pokemon, a red hexagon on it's chest. "why would i?" "Hm, maybe it was that blonde girl, Bonnie was it?" Aster looked up. 

"Dont even think about it" "Why, not like she is important, she is just a runt" Star ruffled his hair. "Anyway, i have things to do, Lysandere put me in charge of the scientists and grunts, while he takes care of the more, important things" she opened the door, "But, you know how to find me" she walked out, closing it. Her hood and glasses back on, she walked to the exit, where a Rapidash was waitingtwo Team Flare grunts, each on a Ponyta, stood behind it. "Miss Star, the boss has a new objective for you" "Thank you, now lets move out" the three fire types galloped away. 

"Wow, so that guy is champion?" "But, why did he forfeit when he saw her eyes?" "No idea, but she had something about her....i dont know what, but something about her was off, nobody is ever THAT calm" Clemont tapped his chin. "You're right, nobody is, not even me" they all turned around" "Your the champion!" Aster nodded. "But, why did you just quit like that?" he sighed, sitting down.

"Star was my best friend a few years back, we traveled Kalos together, we won the league together, she is technically also the champion" "What?" "Yup, you saw how strong she is, she is better than me" "Maybe, but why did you quit?" he sighed. "Have you heard of Team Flare?" they all nodded, "Yeah, they were chasing us and were trying to take a pokemon called Zygarde from Bonnie!" "I was taking care of it, i didnt know that it was a legendary pokemon!" Clemont sighed. 

"Exactly, around that time, we were summoned by a man named Lysandere, we thought he was an honest business man, that is not the case" "What was the case then?" Aster sighed. "He told us that he wanted to make an offer to us, work for him, and help him with his projects, he said they were for trainers and their pokemon, i said no, but Star said yes"

"She disappeared one day, not coming back from work, we searched for weeks on end, we found nothing" "What happened?" "So, i went to Lysandere, thinking he would know something, as we talked, a man in a red orange suit walked in, holding a small orb, it was very high tech, Lysandere took it, wrote something on it, and handed him another one" 

"The man walked out and we resumed talking, after a while Lysandere got a call, then he said something about a new recruit, moments later Star walked in, she was wearing the outfit you saw her in, i got up to greet her, but she simply glared at me, i asked her what she had been doing, she said she was having her eyes opened" Aster sighed, "They brainwashed her, she doesnt remember much, but she remembers some, and has memories implanted where others were taken, in her mind she was taken in by Lysandere and had always been part off Team Flare, in reality, she hated them just as much as i did, maybe more, but that all went away, he took my best friend away from me....." Aster just shook his head, "I cant even look her in the eye anymore, i cant" everyone looked at him, Bonnie spoke up.

"Why would he do that?" "To immobilize a threat to his mission, and to gain a powerful ally"
