Thugs - A Team Rocket RP (Started, accepting sheets)

"They're less valuable to me than you are. Tell me who you want destroyed and I'll do it. Maybe." he said, grinning. I'll get you another uniform. Get out of those clothes so I can try them on you when I get back."

He got up and left for his tent, leaving Ellie alone with the tent flap closed.

Alone again. She knew what was going to happen if she stayed, but it was her duty. It was nice of him to get her a new uniform, although she hoped it wasn't a joke, and that he was bringing back a Rocket uniform, and not a maid one. She slowly took off the rest of her uniform, wincing a little at some of the fresher bruises. She had a few on her back from hitting the tree, light, not too bad, and the one under her ribs. That one hurt still, each time she inhaled it stung a little.

She wondered what would happen. The Commander didn't seem to be as much respected as feared, although sometimes that was all you needed. If he became unfit, he would be replaced, probably violently. Still, if he was already Commander, he had to have some sort of allies. Maybe that was why the Lieutenant was prying about the Blue Team...

Saffron city shone in the distance. The streetlights were just turning off and the glow sunrise glinted off the skyscrapers, rays off golden light reflecting off at regular angles. The place hurt to look at. It had been a long time since Dirk had set eyes on the city. It was a different era then. He had been a different person. In that city, the life he'd known had been lost, crushed and ground into the dirt.

Old feelings rose within him. Anger, frustration and sorrow. But mostly regret. And that was something he couldn't cope with. He couldn't look at it without the memories overwhelming him.

He forced it from his mind. "Hey" He said to Leela. His voice was strained despite his efforts. "Could I...Could I take your side? The sunlight's giving me a migrane..."

He felt pathetic that he couldn't put the past behind him. He made this choice and resolved not to regret it. That was what he would do. Slowly, it faded. Soon his feelings had settled for the moment.

"Could I...Could I take your side? The sunlight's giving me a migrane..."

"Oh, lookie here, the guy with a chewtoy for a leg is asking for a favor,"She began, before snapping her fingers, causing Rainy to drop from his perch,she returned him to his pokeball"Go on ahead, I'm pretty sure most of the idiots that try to get out really care which way they leave anyways."

She left, Bellsprout still on her shoulder, and found a place not directly in the sun's gaze, but almost, where she had a pretty decent view of the camp and allowed Dratini out again, who again slithered up the nearest tree to wait and watch for any grunts that attempted to get out. Wrap was such a versatile attack.

Alex returned to Ellie's tent after an hour, carrying a new Rocket uniform. Max had seen him go in.

Looks like he found someone for the day. Typical.

Max wondered which of the grunts he was with. Sometimes it was a girl, sometimes it was a guy...

Today it had nearly been a child.

He shuddered. Bad memories. He kept on watching the path. Some random trainers walked along it, none of them even glancing at the bush he was hiding in.

The weather in Vermilion City wasn't sunny. It was cloudy, dark and spitting rain. The residents of the town had canceled their local festival, opting to wait until the sun cleared up the storm that had blown over from Celadon.

The docks were full of burly sailors. A yacht painted in all black lay in a private section of the docks. A number of sailors were idling about by the blocked path, trying to peer at the shapes walking across within the ship.

"Some Anchors are milling about out there, do you want us to clear them out?" asked a grunt respectfully to a man sitting in a chair.

"Leave them be. The boss doesn't care what the Anchors do. They have a tough leader but he'll deal with them in time." replied Proton. "I've already offered to take care of them myself."

"Petrel and those reps from the islands are taking their time in there."

"The boss always has precise instructions, I'm sur-"

There was a knock at a door. A black uniformed Rocket Grunt opened it, saluted and stood to aside. Three grunts dressed in white uniforms walked out, followed by a disturbed Petrel and the newly appointed Commander Rich. Behind them two more white grunts walked out, wearing special badges. Proton waved at one of the first Elite grunts who came to him immediately.

"Well, tell me. Why's Petrel so unhappy?"

"He's just given Orange to Ariana and Blue to Archer."

Proton struggled to contain his fury.

"Where are they sending Orange?"

"To the Chrono island. Blue isn't building the warehouse fast enough. They're going to finish there before shipping out to Johto."

Petrel made his way over to Proton.

"These damn Admins are edging in on our power. We should stop this feuding Proton. Giovanni likes those two too much."

"They're not even full Executives yet. If he needs something done, he'll come to me." sneered Proton.

Petrel snarled. "Don't think I'm out of favor yet. Green will be reworked and I'll get back on top."

"After I rescue you."

"The work I did with Blue is of critical importance. Don't forget I'm still in charge of Cinnibar."

The two executives glared at each other.

"Listen, we may not be able to agree on many things Proton but those two geniuses need to go."

"At least we can agree on that. Now..."

The two white grunts with their badges walked forward as Petrel and Proton glowered at them.

"We'll be leaving now to report these changes to the admins we represent. Anything you want to pass along?"

"Pass this along: 'Fuck you.'" said Proton.

More white uniformed grunts stepped into the main hall of the ship. They snapped to and Giovanni, in a black suit came out.

"Have I been clear with my orders?"

"Yes boss!" they rang out in unison.

"Good. Silph is almost mine..." he said, walking back into his room. His body guards walked back inside with him and the black grunt closed the door.

Petrel, out of favor, was motioned to by a grunt.

"You've been asked to leave. Finish the project."

Grimacing at his fall from grace, Petrel nodded and pointed to two grunts. "Take me to Cinnibar."

He left, the island representatives following him out. A pleased looking Rich accompanied them. Proton mused to himself alone.

"I wonder if Giovanni will give me Green..."

"Sir, Jesse and James have arrived..."

After waiting a while, Mayu finally decided to quietly slip out of her tent. She had actually dozed off for a little bit, but she was still able to get up at a good time. It was now time to hatch some mischief! Climbing out of the tent, she made a quick survey of the area before spotting Leela. Grinning, she decided that she would 'test' out Leela's guard. Sneaking over as quietly as she could, she waited until the older girl was shifting from looking out to in before making her move to exit her area.

 

[Deadyawn]

Dirk sat and watched at his post, almost motionless. The past wieghed heavy on his mind and all he could do was wait it out. Sentry duty was boring but at least it was pretty easy.

 

[Redryhno]

Leela didn't see the kid sneaking out of camp, and neither did the Bellsprout on her shoulder, as it was busy watching the local flora. But Rainy-Day, who was keeping watch a bit better since his whole area was underneath him and not left,right, underfoot, and above, saw the young girl sneaking through the undergrowth and tents.

While the pokemon knew its orders and cared for his trainer, it always had had a soft spot for children. Instead of dropping down on top of her, as he would have done with any of the other Rocket morons, he slithered down, most of his bulk still hidden above in the trees and was now hanging down in front of her. He looked at her calmly before cooing and rubbing his head against her.

 

[Kuroneko Aisha]

Mayu couldn't help but let out a squeak when the Dratini showed itself. Chuckling as it rubbed heads with the Pokemon, she said. "Ehehe, I-I wasn't trying to sneak out or anything. It was a test! I'm not allowed to be a sentry, but I can make sure that the sentries that are posted have a good guard! Y-you pass.~" She hoped that excuse would work.

 

[Redryhno]

"Y-you pass.~"

Rainy-Day cooed again, this time reaching Leela's ears, who sighed, stuck Bellsprout into a patch of flowers nearby,creating a good place to hide, instructing him to use Sleep Powder on anyone attempting to go by.

Meanwhile, Rainy continued to rub against Mayu, but slowly curled around her. Cooing softly all the while.

 

[Kuroneko Aisha]

Mayu was unaware of the Dratini curling around her, but she did giggle a little bit as she rubbed heads with him. Smiling, she said. "You're pretty friendly huh? I would let my Vulpix out to play with you but you're on guard duty huh?"

 

[Redryhno]

"You're pretty friendly huh? I would let my Vulpix out to play with you but you're on guard duty huh?"

Rainy had coiled around Mayu and now tightened his grip as he saw Leela tromping through the undergrowth.

"Yes he is, and if he and I weren't on sentry duty, I'd let you do just that, kiddie."

 

[Kuroneko Aisha]

Mayu gulped a little bit as she realized that she was actually being bound, and she knew that moving around wasn't a good idea right now. Looking to Leela, she said. "Ehehe, h-hiya Leela."

 

[Redryhno]

"Ehehe, h-hiya Leela."

"Hey, kiddie. And you know the name's Leels."

She got down on one knee, eye-level with Mayu,"How about I take you back to camp and let you sneak back in? No one has to know you went and broke the rules, and you get to go get some sleep. You've got to be tired, right?"

 

[Kuroneko Aisha]

Mayu giggled a little bit nervously before saying. "Y-yes Leels, I'll go right to sleep. Really tired after all. No more mischief from me."

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Max, tired of Caid's noxious stench moved to another tree quietly. She got the hint, wandering off to bug others. He started having problems keeping his eyes open but spotted something. A guy in a white karate suit was on the path and he wasn't walking. He appeared to be holding binoculars. He stared back, pulling out a small pair of his own.

Birdwatching? Unlikely. Had the camp been spotted? Well Max wasn't going to talk to Alex so quickly after that confrontation. He opted to grab a grunt to replace him.

Having a new sentry in place, he ordered others to relieve Dirk and Leels. He slid into his tent. The girl was gone.

Fuck sakes... Maybe she ran off?

He drifted asleep without much effort.

 

[Redryhno]

"Y-yes Leels, I'll go right to sleep. Really tired after all. No more mischief from me."

"Good kid, Rainy, go on ahead and let her go, keep watching her though."

Rainy-Day did as he was asked and disappeared back into the branches. She wrapped her hand around Mayu's shoulder and, firmly, grasped her close. As they walked back to camp, Leela felt like asking her some questions.

"So, why'd you think it was a good idea to sneak out of here? There's nothing in Saffron but a bunch of stuffed up old geezers waiting for the money to roll in, a couple of gyms full of more geezers, and some factories full of industrial waste."

 

[Kuroneko Aisha]

Mayu pouted by puffing out her cheeks while saying. "I wasn't trying to run away. Like I was telling Rainy, I was testing the guard since I'm not allowed to be one. Y-your side passed, but I can't be sure about the other sides. Who knows what might happen if a guard can't even stop a little girl from coming into the camp."

 

[Redryhno]

"Who knows what might happen if a guard can't even stop a little girl from coming into the camp."

"Uh-huh, sure little Mayu. This is where I let you go sneak back in, now you go to sleep this time, if I catch you again, I'm taking you straight to Max," Leela tapped Mayu on the back, throwing her forward a bit before jumping back to her Bellsprout a few yards away,"Now go on, Rainy's still watching you."

A single grunt lay passed out on the path next to the Bellsprout, she picked the Grass-type up, patted its head, and spoke a few words of congratulations to them.

"Whoever's friend this is better come pick him up, because I'm in the mood to kick the guy until he wakes up."

 

[Kuroneko Aisha]

Mayu gulped a little bit when Leels said that she would report her the next time she was caught. That definitely wouldn't end well for her. Letting out a sigh, followed by a yawn, she said. "I guess I am sleepy. I'll hit the hay now." She shrugged and went back into Max's tent, where she found him sleeping. Trying not to make too much noise, she slipped in and rested on the mattress before passing out.
