The trainers carrying the heavy bags stopped for a break.
"Damn, how do those Rockets carry this everywhere?"
"They treat their members like slaves, don't you remember that newspaper article on it?"
"Hahaha, yeah. Wish we could catch James and Jesse though. They're the leaders."
"Pretty dangerous pair there."
They were completely oblivious to the two Rockets shadowing them.

Alex returned after a short while.
"Alright, we can go. Don't steal shit from this place, the boss is trying to sweet talk the owners into helping us out more. They'll hide us but don't..." he sniffed and looked at Caid.
"Dear god woman, you smell like a Muk sliding around the sewers! Mikaela! Remind me we have to get a Water Pokemon to hose her down with. Just try not to bother the scientists."
He smiled and yawned.
"Well, that was fun but I really am tired. Follow me."
He led them to a back door of a warehouse and shook the hand of a man dressed in a white lab jacket.
"W-welcome to our laboratory. Of course we'll be able to help friends of G-giovanni. Please, no smoking and..."
He looked at Caid as she passed with a frown.
"wipe your feet..."
They passed through the office floor interior, going down some stairs and ending up in a large assembly area.
"We can have you sleep in here, the ventilation system is loud but you won't be bothered..."
He looked nervously at Alex.
"Do you need anythin-"
"Water and some potions. Go away now."
The man almost bowed and walked briskly back to the office floor. He returned with some water bottles and potions.
"This is where we store our technical machin-"
"Shouldn't you be working elsewhere?" growled Alex, sipping from his bottle. The man fled.
"Sleep, I need you awake in the morning. We'll make those fighters pay."
And promptly, after a short spurt of giggling, he fell asleep against the concrete. The rest of the grunts stared at his shirtless form until they were sure he was unconscious before they dozed off as well.
