With the grunts finished off, Team Aqua was able to advance forward. Reaching the end of the hallway, they walked through an open door into a much larger and vaster room than before. There was a large screen, showing a large gun of some sort and Team Flare grunts walking around it. From what Maddy could tell, though, it didn't seem that this gun was in the same building as them. In front of the TV stood Lysandre, his hands clasped behind his back, and six admin-looking trainers. Four of them were women, wearing weird goggles, and the other two were Hectare and a bigger man dressed like a scientist. Lysandre turned towards Team Aqua and smirked. "How nice of you to finally join us." He said. "Are you going to come to your senses and join us?" Maddy shook her head. "Of course not. We're here to put a stop to your plans." Lysandre's smirk widened. "What a shame." He gestured to his admins. "Seize them." A couple of the admins raised there hands and gestured towards the sides of the room as Team Flare grunts piled in and surrounded Team Aqua. Maddy cursed under her breath. There was way too many of them to handle. "You shall all be taken prisoner." Lysandre continued. "I wish you all good luck." The man turned and left the room out a side door, leaving them. The grunts closed in; some of them had handcuffs ready.

Michael watched as the guys came near and yelled to Squirt. The Wartortle nodded and let out a blast of freezing ice at the grunts. The beam caught one on the leg causing it to freeze, and the other missed but froze the floor causing them to slip. "Captain I think it is time we move."

Allen gritted his teeth, he tensed and turned to face the surrounding admins, slowly backing towards the group of his teammates. "Well well, looks like we've found ourselves in another predicament." He glanced around the room, trying to find some way out. The entrance they used had been shut off quickly, the door Lysandre left through had been blocked even quicker. One of the grunts rushed forward, arms outstretched in an attempt to tackle the Aquan. Allen quickly shifted his footing, grabbed the grunt's left arm and spun him around back into a pack of three grunts that followed suit. They all fell, but were right back up as a small bunch more rushed in. Allen moved forward, stomping the next grunt to approach in the gut, driving the wind from the man. He glanced back to find a grunt coming up behind Caleb, "Look out!" He turned on his heel and tackled the grunt to the floor.
As he tried to stand, he felt someone's body land on his back and swipe an arm behind him. The cold steel barely touched his wrist and caused him to jerk and squirm and manage to pry himself free. That was not going to happen again. He drew back and punched the grunt across the face, sending the man sprawled out on the floor. Allen's eyes were wide with panic, "N-NEIDA!" He tossed a Pokeball, revealing his Whimsicott, "HURRICANE!" He cried out, she instantly recognized his distress and whipped up a massive gust of air, slamming a large mass of grunts again the wall behind them. "Get ready to Stun Spore anyone else who gets close!" He backed up toward Caleb.

Hectare looks around the room slowly as the Flare grunts approached Aqua. Suddenly there were portals of dark energy appearing beside grunts, a long black arm with a spike-band on the wrist would extend from the portal and pull them in. Hectare throws a Pokeball, which collides with another ball in the air and the burst open. An Infernape with a red baseball cap and tie appears along side a shiny Blaziken. The two then begin fighting the grunts. A pudgy sort of Robotnik looking admin turns to Hectare. "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!" Hectare takes his glasses off to reveal glowing oranges eyes. He tosses the shades into the admin, Xerosic's, face and pulls out a pair of emerald triangle shades from inside his coat. He then grins. "You didn't think you could just do what you wanted and not get Interpol's attention right?" "Dark!" Looker shouts after appearing from a corned. He uses some martial arts to take down a few nearby grunts before approaching Xerosic. "I'm glad to see Team Flare's co-leader is doing well." Xerosic is still silent, stunned that one of his most trusted allys was actually a spy. One of the admins, Aliana, joins their 'meeting'. "I won't let you get away with this!" She shouts, grabbing a Pokeball. "(No one lays a finger on my Master.)" A voice booms in the admins head as a shadowy portal appears behind her. She turns to see the shadowy figure of a metal-style Gardevoir. She is then pulled in by psychic power as the portal closes. Xeroc turns to looker and grabs a Pokeball. "I won't let you take me." "....." Looker is silent as he looks at Dark. "......" Dark looks around the room after taking off his ugly orange coat. He runs a hand through his hair, undoing some of the gel and making his hair a bit spiky. "We've got you surrounded. Just give up." "N-no!" Xeroc goes to throw a Pokeball before Dark shouts something. "Bullet Punch!" Dark orders. He tosses a Luxury Ball and a black Scizor appears. One of his wings glow red and the other glows blue. The Pokemon lands the attack square into Xeroc's gut, bringing him to his knees. "We're done here Dark." Looker says quickly, noticing Dark wanted to hang back and help out. "Yeah... I know." He says and recalls his Infernape. Looker recalls the Blaziken. Misery appears between the two and suddenly they teleport off, Scizor and Xeroc included.

"Not by the threads of your tacky matching outfits..." Caleb muttered. His face paled somewhat whenever Lysandre ordered his grunts to capture Aqua. He clicked his tongue whenever they were surrounded. He wasn't much of a fighter himself, but he knew someone who was. He let out his Marshtomp, knowing that the pokemon probably wanted to let off some steam.
"Like we trained this morning..." Caleb told him, thrusting his arm out, his hand clenched tight in a fist. The Marshtomp nodded. "Power-Up-Punch..." Caleb ordered.
As his Marshtomp rushed in guns-a-blazing, Caleb kinda stayed back and avoided the grunts himself. At least he tried to. He heard Allen's shout and turned to see him tackle the grunt sneaking up behind him.
"Thanks..." he said blinking a bit. Then Allen shouted again as another grunt came up with handcuffs. Caleb let out a whistle as Allen dealt with them. The guy's expression through Caleb off a bit though. He raised an eyebrow as Allen let out his Whimsicott. The younger man thought he was handling himself fine on his own.
"Hurri-whaOH MY ARCEUS!" Caleb shouted.
Noticing the tone of Caleb's voice, his Marshtomp returned to his side, taking a stance so that the wind didn't blow either of them away. Things were starting to click in Caleb's mind. He looked at the ground, looking a bit upset, as Allen backed up towards him.
"Keep using Power-Up-Punch on any of the orange suits that get to close..." Caleb told his pokemon. The Marshtomp nodded, getting ready to fight again.

Maddy watched as the madness began to unfold. "Well, let's kick some Team Flare butt!" She turned to Alec and Ace. "You're two of our stronger members, so you guys can take down two of the admins!" With that, Maddy plucked a Poké Ball from her belt and rushed forward to challenge a Team Flare admin.
[Reserve. Alec will fight Bryony; she uses a Liepard, Bisharp, Lairon, Pyroar, and Anorith. Ace will fight Celosia; she uses an Electrike, Drapion, Dragonair, Snorlax, and Tailow. Everybody else will fight one Team Flare grunt with 2-3 Pokémon.]
Maddy glared at Mable, one of Team Flare's admins. Both girl's sent out a Haxorus each. "Dragon Dance!" Maddy barked. Both Pokémon were of equal Speed, so as Maddy's Haxorus buffed his Attack and Speed stats, the other attacked with Dragon Claw, dealing a strong blow. "Outrage!" Thanks to Dragon Dance, Maddy's Haxorus was both faster and stronger, so the all-out Dragon-type attack hit hard. Mable's Haxorus stumbled backwards from the attack, nearly knocked out. It retaliated with Dragon Pulse, now trying to keep it's distance from it's rampaging counterpart. The attack did quite a bit of damage to Maddy's Haxorus, but it was no use. Outrage continued and the other Haxorus was knocked out. Mable cursed under her breath. "Seriously?!" Maddy smirked. "I raise Dragons. Using one against me is just plain stupid." Mable sent out a Houndour next. Haxorus' Outrage continued and he knocked out the other Pokémon in one blow. However, now he was confused. "Whatever." Mable said. "Houndour is still weak anyway, I just used him to wait out that Outrage attack." Sent out to fight Haxorus was a Weavile. Thanks to Dragon Dance, Haxorus was just barely faster than Weavile, but he was confused and began to flail wildly, hurting himself. "What a stupid Pokémon!" Mable barked. Weavile attacked with Icicle Crash, sending a large, sharp icicle down on the Dragon-type from above. The attack finished off Maddy's Pokémon with ease. Maddy sent out her Greninja. Weavile rushed forward and attacked with Brick Break, hitting the frog Pokémon hard. "Power-Up Punch!" Protean activated and Greninja became Fighting-type. Power-Up Punch hit Weavile for a decent chunk of damage, and the frog's Attack increased. Weavile retaliated with Fury Swipes, clawing Greninja 4 times in succession. "Gotta love Protean. Another Power-Up Punch!" Greninja lashed out again, making his little fist into a ball and punching Weavile. This attack was much stronger and knocked out the Weavile with little trouble. Greninja's Attack increased once more. Sent out next was a Machamp. "Aerial Ace!" Protean activated and Greninja turned from Fighting-type to Flying-type. The unavoidable attack hit the Machamp hard, putting it well below half health. "I knew you'd do that!" Mable said, with a laugh. "Cross Chop!" The attack hit hard, knocking out Maddy's Greninja. Maddy sent out Fletchinder in his place. "Acrobatics!" Fletchinder wasn't holding an item, so the attack doubled in strength and knocked out the Machamp. "Consider it revenge." Maddy said, with a smirk. Mable thought she was smart by predicting Greninja's attack, but Maddy was almost always prepared. Mable's last Pokémon was a Croconaw. "Steel Wing!" Fletchinder's wings acquired a metallic sheen as it clothes-lined the crocodile Pokémon. Croconaw retaliated with Hydro Pump, sending the small bird Pokémon flying up high into the air. She fell back down to the ground, landing with a thump. Fletchinder was knocked out. Maddy recalled Fletchinder and sent out her Sliggoo. "Thunderbolt!" The bolt of lightning hit Croconaw hard, but the battle wasn't over yet. It retaliated with Ice Fang, biting the little Dragon with deadly cold teeth. Sliggoo's Eviolite came in handy for enduring the blow. "Absorb!" The attack didn't hit incredibly hard, but Sliggoo managed to restore a bit of her health in the act. This time, Croconaw decided to step up it's game and summon a Blizzard attack. The attack was a lucky, critical hit. Sliggoo fainted and Maddy sent out her Honedge as a replacement. Croconaw rushed forward and attacked with Crunch, gnawing on Honedge's metallic body. The attack hit hard and almost finished the Pokémon in one blow. "Sacred Sword!" Honedge sliced Croconaw with it's body, dealing a heavy blow. Croconaw fainted and Mable was left with no usable Pokémon. Maddy merely smirked and recalled her Pokémon.

Perfect.
"More trash to be disposed of..." Caleb muttered, adjusting his glasses.
"The only trash that needs to be dealt with is you!" the female Team Flare grunt retorted.
Caleb gave her a look. Oh no she didn't! He quickly sent out his Axew. She sent out her Inkay to protect herself. "Use Dual Chop!" Caleb called. The Axew gave him a look. Caleb rolled his eyes, "please..."
"Looks like your pokemon is the one calling the shots here!" the woman said. Caleb scoffed. His Axew dove into the Inkay, hitting it with her claws. The Inkay quickly retaliated by pecking at her.
"Giga Impact!" The Axew's body became surrounded in an invisible energy. A bright flash of yellow light appeared in front of her face as she faced the Inkay. It then shoots itself at the Inkay, an orb of light purple energy with spiraling streaks around it appear around the Axew's body. It then slamed into the Inkay, sending the squid pokemon flying.
After retrieving her pokemon, the Team Flare grunt sent out a Macargo. Caleb's Axew looked like she wanted to fight some more, but Caleb felt it was best to let her rest. He swapped in his Trapinch. Before he could issue a command, the Macargo's cheeks swelled up before it released a red-orange stream of fire from its mouth at the Trapinch. The Trapinch braced itself for the attack. The Macargo then Slugma opens its mouth and releases a thick, gray smoke towards Caleb's pokemon. Once again it just seemed to sit there. It was now engulfed in the smog. Her body became outlined in white before her whole body glowed white. She fired a white beam at the opponent from her body.
The Team Flare grunt whined before switching pokemon. Caleb decided to do the same. His Trapinch could definitely use a break.
He groaned when his opponent sent out a Mightyena. She seemed pleased by his reaction until he sent out his Charmeleon. "Use Smokescreen," he said slowly. The Charmeleon growled at him. Caleb hadn't had much interaction with this pokemon yet. It was still pretty upset from how they met. The Charmeleon opened his mouth and released a thick, black smoke. Instead of aiming the smoke at just their opponent, the Charmeleon distributed it towards Caleb. Caleb coughed, covering his mouth.
"Use Slash!" he called. The Mightyena attacked first, dealing a cheap shot at the Charmeleon. The fire type was not pleased. His claws glowed white and grew longer before it slashed at the Mightyena.
"Take Down!" the Team Flare grunt shouted. The Mightyena rushed past Caleb's Charmeleon.
"Dragon Rage!" Caleb called, the smoke beginning to clear up now. The Charmeleon's eyes glowed white before the flame on its tail grew to a huge size. It formed a ball of fire in its mouth, then launched the fiery inferno at their opponent.
The Team Flare grunt recalled her burned dog and retreated, screaming about burnt hair and clothes.

Michael watched as the grunts circled the two boys. Michael and Caesar both looked at each other and nodded. Michael looked down at his Wartortle and nodded, Caesar the same at his Squirtle. Caesar then whispered in Michael's ear and he nodded. Two grunts sent out two pokemon each. Caesar then yelled. "Killer start a rapid spin but use water gun from inside your shell!" Michael then said to Squirt. "Squirt use Ice beam on the Squirtle when he begins spraying water out of his shell." The grunts yelled at their pokemon. "Mityena use bite and Golbat use poison fang." The other yelled. "Houndoom use fire fang, and Zubat use supersonic." Then Squirt fired the ice beam at the Squirtle, freezing it solid with spikes of ice shooting out of the shell. The velocity that Killer had been spinning kept going and soon all but the Mityena were down. Both of the boys nodded and yelled Water Pulse/Gun at their pokemon. The dual water attacks hit the dog pokemon so hard it went flying back into the grunt out cold. The boys smiled before patting their respected pokemon on the head.

(Reserve: Vs. Bryony; Liepard, Bisharp, Lairon, Pyroar, and Anorith.)
Allen quickly withdrew his two Pokemon, seeing the green haired woman approach him, she held a grin as she stared, he glasses whirred to life, bringing up information on him. Pokemon he had, the varying strength levels on his team, everything. She laughed, tossing a sleek feline Pokemon onto the floor between them. Allen snatched a ball from inside his jacket. Ubella should be able to mop the floor with her... He thought, looking at the Liepard. With a flick of the wrist, there was a bright flash of light and a large moth hovered in the air above the enemy. Every flap of her powerful wings released glowing scales that looked very similar to burning embers.
"I knew you would choose that ugly old thing." Bryony mocked, and one could see Ubella visibly flinch. Oh no she didn't! Ubella buzzed her wings almost instantly fainting the foe's Pokemon. She glared at the green woman. "Interesting! Go Anorith!" A tiny fossil Pokemon appeared in front of the two of them.
Allen tossed another Pokeball, revealing Kell. The Pawniard jabbed at the opponent with such fervor it would have been cute any other time. The Anorith scuttled forward, bringing it's long pincers across Kell in an X. The attack hit for a lot of damage, but not enough to take the little steel type out. "Iron Head!" Kell rushed forward making one of the cutest cries before diving headfirst right on top of the foe, crushing it into the floor. Bryony returned her fainted Pokemon.
"Alright, Pyroar!" The green woman released her next Pokemon.
"Dolstro!" Allen called his Greninja out of his ball, he just called for a Hydro Pump. Bryony and Pyroar both deadpanned as the huge Water attack shot the Fire type against the wall to knock it out.
Bryony seemed rather desperate at this point she pulled two balls from her belt to let out both a Lairon and a Bisharp. Allen looked to Ubella, a simple Flamethrower to he both of them knocked them out.

Once defeated, the remaining Team Flare admins and some of the grunts fled, leaving the building through the same exit as Lysandre. Maddy was too worn out to try and pursue them. "I guess we'll let the cops handle the rest from here..." She said, reaching to her belt. She then remembered she hadn't brought her Alakazam with her this time. "We're walking home, I guess." She took her TADS out to check the time. "I have a few errands to run, so I'll have your rewards posted tomorrow." She said, walking up to a nearby computer and pressing a few keys. She brought up some files that interested her and casually uploaded them to her TADS. "I'll see you all tomorrow!" With that, Maddy left, taking the same route they came.

Allen nodded as Maddy walked away, "I have a few errands to run myself." He tossed a ball into the air, letting his Volcarona out into the open. She flew around for a moment above the building tops before coming down and flapping her wings to stay in place. "See you guys later!" He called to everyone left, running off to an open area to hop on his Pokemon and fly off, heading northwest of the city.

Maddy had somehow gotten up onto the roof of the Aqua house. She had a cigarette in one hand and her TADS in the other, flicking through the files she had uploaded from Team Flare's computers the night before. "Man, oh man, Lysandre..." She mumbled to herself. "What are you truly planning?" Looking at the files gave her a sinking feeling deep in her gut. With a sigh, she took a draw from her cigarette and looked up at the sky, her green eye glittering slightly in the sunlight. It was a bright, sunny day out, but it was cool. Just how she liked it.

Rose, having spotted Maddy up on the roof, wondered what the boss was doing up there and decided to ask Maddy herself. She returned her Persian to her Pokeball and called out her Ivysaur and had it use vinewhip on the chimney to pull itself up to the roof, and then she had Ivysaur lift her up there as well. Careful not to fall, Rose walked on the roof over to Maddy "Hey boss, what are you doing?"

Caleb was in the backyard with his Marshtomp. Once again they were training like before, but this time Caleb seemed to be joining in some as well. They were both throwing punches left and right. Caleb had made sure to take his glasses off beforehand so that they didn't somehow manage to break...
...on his face.
Caleb didn't seem to be in the best of moods, and his Marshtomp seemed to be able to tell this. He went along with the whole training regimen like a champ. Finally Caleb sat down on the ground, looking a bit like a Tamato berry.
