Seth didn't even so much as glance at TRP as she suddenly rushed in.
"If you mean the database, I shut it down, yes. And if you don't mind, I'm rather busy trying to get it back up. I have... STUPID DAMN VERMIN!..." Seth shouted as he felt a fuzzy creature run over his feet. A thud resonating as his foot came in contact with his desk as he tried to kick the Eevee and failed. "... enough distractions as it is!"
Fingers flew over the keyboard as he tied up the loose ends with the server compromise, then with a single tap and a beep... the system started its reboot. However, Seth seemed to completely miss the urgency in TRP's voice.

While Lucere's expression betrayed little emotion, a slight reddening of the face signaled his mounting rage.
"I see." He said quietly, gaze sinking to 1337 again. "....you may deal with him. Once he's locked up I want all of his devices - on his person, in his quarters, anywhere - confiscated. All of them. Including that ridiculous thing on his face. I don't care if you have to sedate him and cut it off. The next time I see him he will be behind bars and in standard uniform. If he wants his toys and clothes back he'll have to earn them. Clear?"

"For the love of.." TRP winced and shook her head, "You shut down the entire system because someone photoshopped you into a pink pleated skirt?? Lucere's out there right now questioning people!" She pointed desperately at the door as though the blue-haired man might burst in any moment, "He's looking for a head to nail to the wall!"

"s**t." Seth muttered, an annoyed look crossing his face.
"Yes it was cause of the damn picture, and 1337 compromised database security with that prank of his!"
His brows furrowed as he leaned back in his chair and frowned up at TRP. With the system rebooting, it was up to the computers to do their thing now. Which could still be a few minutes considering the massiveness of the HQ's entire network.

 A crisp "Sir, yes sir!" was belted out from the girl's lungs. With the newly obtained permission she was seeking, she reached to her belt and grabbed the only ball dangling there. She tossed it out to her side, and with a burst of light, her partner appeared. Compared to the girl, it was rather tall, looming almost 2 feet over her in height. It swished its tail behind it and looked to the girl for direction. Take the one on the floor and follow me.The girl didn't have to speak. Even though she never heard any sort of confirmation from the Pokemon, she knew it could hear her own thoughts. She had no special powers, but it was able to compensate. In a crisp, brisk walk, she began to make her way towards the elevator. Shortly following behind her would soon enough be the unconscious Grunt, walking around as if everything was normal with a faint blue aura around him. Behind that, the green furred Pokemon floated itself after the pair. The last thing seen of the momentary trio was a sliver of an angry pinked haired girl as the elevator door closed.

Lucere stepped around Kunai as she had 1337 carted off downstairs. Frowning, he turned on his heel and proceeded down the hall, leaving gawking rockets in his wake.

TRP sighed and leaned against the wall, "..maybe he'll give up and go back to his office once the system's back up.."
There was a slow, deliberate knock at Seth's door.
TRP bit her lip.

"That is unlikely," Seth replied, knowing full well Lucere wouldn't now that he had already left his office.
Then there was the knock, and Seth sighed. Time to own up. The elite stood, "Come in, sir!"
The tall brunette immediately going to attention and saluting as soon as the door opened.

Lucere tugged the door open and stepped inside. He eyed TRP momentarily before letting his attention settle on Seth. "What is the current status of the system?" Apparently he was going to skip past questioning Seth on whether or not he was responsible to more prudent matters.

Still standing rigid, Seth's blue gaze tilted down towards his screens in order to answer Lucere's question. The elite retaining a cool composure as he replied.
"The comrpromise of the network has been resolved and new security measures installed. Server dump before termination was successful, thus all critical data should be intact. The system is now currently rebooting and should be fully operational in 4.3 minutes."
Crisp, clear, and to the point. Seth waited, still at attention, for any further questions the boss might have.

The boss nodded his understanding, "I expect everything will be restored as it was, then. When you're finished I'll see you in my office, Mr. Kaiba." He turned and left, shutting the door behind him.

"Yes, sir." Was Seth's only reply as the boss then left, shutting the door behind him.
The elite finally allowed himself to relax somewhat, and sank back into his chair, scowling at his screens.
"I'm going to kill that damn grunt, if the Boss doesn't kill me first."
He monitored the text scrolling across his screens as the system did its initial security scan upon reboot.

TRP sighed, shoulders slumping. She'd been in the hot seat Seth would soon be occupying. She knew it was no fun. "Just.. let him say his piece and keep agreeing with him. Hopefully it won't last too long."

Finally the system started restoring itself, and there was nothing else to be done. Everything would be back to normal in a matter of seconds.
Seth thus stood up again and glanced at TRP as he passed her.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
With that, he left his office to head for Lucere's.
