Black paws rapidly struck against the cold half flooring of the HQ, carrying a large dark form of a yellow ringed Umbreon. With ears laid back, and a determined look in the large red eyes the dark type ran, streaking down the halls on the tech department level.
Its target came into sight, sitting just down the hall from the robotics lab door. Body streamlining, the Umbreon lengthened its stride to move as quickly as dark legs would carry it. "RAA!" Its target was another Umbreon, currently with his back to the hall. and seemingly not noticing that there was another Umbreon advancing on him.
Just as the running Umbreon jumped at him however, the sitting Umbreon was on his feat, and easily curled out of the attack's way.
"Zou!?" The leaping Umbreon hit the ground in a tumble and went sprawling and rolling against the slick ground. As it tumbled its entire form glowed and a Zorua took the Umbreon's place. She came to a halt on her back, paws curled in, and large red eyes blinking in bewilderment. Awww, she was sure she had him this time.
A pare of gray boots stepped out of the doorway into the robotics department and stepped right before the Zorua, a pare of hazel eyes looking down at her young pokemon. "we'll work on it" She told the dark pokemon, with a slight grin of amusement. From down the hall Umbreon gave a snort.

Suddenly out of nowhere, a red haired boy came running down the hallway, looking somewhat distressed. The long locks, green eyes, and strange outfit, were unmistakable. Faleen would likely recognize him as Asch, the young agent she had met before.
He streaked past Faleen and her Pokemon, not at all paying them any attention, even if it meant running them over in his flight. Eventually he disappeared around a corner and out of sight.
It was a few moments later that Asch again came briskly walking from the direction he had come before. An irked scowl on his face as he went along, with... yet another Asch following along behind him. This one wearing an incredibly cheeky grin that seemed out of place on his face.
Asch #2 stopped infront of Faleen, while #3 snickered and kept behind the other. A little black fluffy tail protruding from his posterior.
"Have you seen anything... unusual?" The second Asch asked in all seriousness.

The presence of another figure in the hall, drew Faleen's and her pokemon's attention, Umbreon having to jump out of the way to avoid being tripped over or stepped on.
"Uh..." Well, she knew she had seen that face... and outfit... and hair before. though what he was doing down here, and why he looked like he was running away from something left Faleen very confused.
Zorua had flopped onto her side, staring after the hurrying human with her mouth slightly open. After he was gone, it left the group in an awkward silence, before Faleen shook her head and turned back to her pokemon... only to see TWO more Asch coming down the hall.
The sight of the one happy looking Asch with the tail helped realization dawn for Faleen. But her wide eyes blinked at the younger Agent as he stopped in front of her.
"I'm going to assume you are asking about the other Agent Asch that came running down this hall a moment ago." she answered. with a finger pointing int he direction the other Asch had gone.
"Zoou!" From the ground, Faleen's young female Zorua hopped to her feet, and with a spinning flash of light perked up in the form of a beaming Faleen. "Zour, roouua" those Zorua's barks came from the second Faleen's mouth as she looked to the other Zorua

The real Asch looked in the direction that Faleen pointed and let out an irritated sigh. This was most inconvenient and he didn't have all day, chasing around one of his Pokemon. Hopefully Saber would calm down soon enough.
The Asch with the tail blinked, his mouth turning into a curious 'o' shape as the other Zorua took on the appearance of Faleen. "Zor!" He suddenly wrapped his arms around "Faleen" in a hug. ""
"Tyke, knock it off!" Asch barked at his duplicate. Tyke let go of the other Faleen and stepped back sheepishly. ""
With that, Asch started to stalk off again in the direction Faleen had pointed.

Faleen raised her eyebrows at the Zorua greeted one another and... hugged, while still in their master's forms. Faleen let out a soft sigh at that, but didn't need to say anything when Asch himself scolded his pokemon. Zorua wagged her fluffy tail, happy to see the other Zorua again, and maybe this time they could play! But at the explanation that they needed to go find someone, and then they started away, FaleenZorua tilted her head watching them go.
"I know the aria down here, do you need any assistance?" The real Faleen asked Asch before he got more then a couple of steps away.

Asch stopped as Faleen offered her help, and turned to look back over his shoulder. "I don't need help. But if you want to come along, I won't stop you." And with that, he continued on again, with Tyke trailing along behind him.
Up ahead though, there was some started voices and the sound of something falling and hitting the floor.
"Dammit," Asch cursed under his breath and picked up the pace again. Saber was going to get him in trouble if he kept this up.

Faleen gave a little half grin at his reply, taking that as a tentative 'yes' "Umbreon, come on" she said, gesturing to the dark pokemon, who trotted over to catch up.
Zorua, who was the most happy to be going along, hurried after the two Asch, dropping Faleen's form, and once again spinning into a light ball, popping back up as a fourth Asch, coming into place right behind the other Zorua and reaching out to take his hair into her hands, being careful not to tug < Who is Saber?> she asked, tilting her head curiously.
Faleen frowned when her Zorua did that, opening her mouth to say something when the sound of telling and something, falling caught her attention, her eyes widened at that. "Oh dear," She hurried after Asch, hoping that what fell wasn't breakable and something important.

Tyke blinked when his hair was grabbed, but didn't seem to mind. Instead he grinned and snickered a little. "" As if the other Zorua should already know this fact! ""
"" Tyke murmured when they heard the crash and the real Asch hurried toward the source. "" And with that, he ran after his master.
Going down the hallway, they found a snarling Asch glaring daggers at a couple techs with a turned over cart, and various parts and computer components scattered across the floor.
"HEY! Look what you did!" One of the techs shouted at "Asch."
"You better hope that none of this is broken! Seth will have our heads! We-"
And the techs stopped to look and stare as three more Aschs suddenly appeared.

Zorua replied with excitement. At the crash Zorua glanced around Tyke, seeing the humans hurrying to see what that was. When the strands of hair were pulled out of her grasp she blinked, and hurried after him when he called that they needed to help
Umbreon ran past them, Following Faleen who had stopped when she turned the corner and saw the scattered computer parts, a sharp breath escaped, eyes already locating a few pieces broken off from their original component. "Oh great." She breathed, kneeling down by some of the parts and picking them up to look them over, before carefully placing them onto the upright cart again.
"Okay, time to pick up the pace," Looking over at Asch, before she moved past him "Umbreon get ahead, go around the long way and see if you can't block him off." She knew the Umbreon was faster. And they needed to stop the run away Pokemon before he broke anything else, or wandered into one of the rooms, Seth was not going to be happy about this, best avoid anything else being broken.

"ZrrrrrAA!" The first Asch snarled at the techs, looking about to make another break for it, until the Umbreon suddenly blocked his path.
"What is going on here?!" One of the techs asked, clearly confused as to why there was four of the same person here.
Asch didn't offer an explanation, instead he stepped forward without looking or responding to Faleen.
"Saber that's enough!" he shouted, frowning deeply at the snarling copy of him.
This seemed to get the other's attention and he paused, turning to look back at the real Asch. The boy heaved a sigh, his frown deepening. This whole incident made him look weak and unable to handle his Pokemon. He was quite irate, but now wasn't the time to take it out on the spooked Pokemon.
However, he was prepared for such situations, and reached into a pocket and pulled out a small bag. "Here, you can have these," Asch said irritably.
This seemed to get the other Asch's attention, and in a flash of light, the illusion faded and a Zoroark took its place. The Pokemon was taller than Asch, and came over to his master to take the homemade poffins that were in the bag. The Asch with the tail also showed its true form and bounded over to Saber's feet to look up at his brother happily. "Rua!"
"Roark," the larger Pokemon replied, seeming to have calmed down.

When Asch addressed his Pokemon, Faleen didn't say or do anything to interject, just watching quietly until she looked over to the Tech's "Its the illusion Pokemon from Unova" She explained to them. "They can take the form of people too." She shot a look to her zorua "And you know the rule, Zorua."
Zorua jumped at this, and gave her master a sheepish grin before dropping out of the other Agent's form and into her little fox.
When the situation seemed to be calming down, she let off a soft sigh, and knelt down to help pick up the parts, "... can I fix this?" she spoke this quietly, more to herself as she turned the broken parts over in her hands, wondering is she could pull it off, though doubting it, If it was damaged internally anyway, it would have to be tested out. It was worth a look, if it would helped keep them out of to much trouble for broken tech.
In the middle of her looking over the damage of one of the parts, The first Asch dropped his form, but instead of another Zorua, what appeared was a much, much larger fox. Faleen's eyes widened as she blinked a few times, mouth opening as if she wanted to say something. "A Zoroark" She's heard of them, knew it was an evolution of Zorua, but she had never seem one before, and clearly she was impressed.
Once the Zoroark was calmed down and returned to its master, Umbreon's ears flicked back with a slight glare, sitting down where he had been standing.
Zorua however opened her mouth wide in a gaps and a smile when she saw The Zoroark, and the other Zorua going over there. Being much more curious that any of Faleen's pokemon, Zorua pounced up and over to the group after Tyke to visit, the Agent Rocket and his pokemon.

"Hey if you could fix this, we would love you forever!" One of the techs, a woman, said to Faleen. This said as the both of them started picking up pieces of the equipment and putting them back on the cart that was now right side up again.
Asch didn't move to assist them, as he was tending to his Pokemon. Saber took the poffins from Asch, before looking down at the pair of Zorua. One of them he knew very well, the other he didn't. The Zoroark nodded his head to Zorua and rumbled softly in greeting. Now that the ordeal was over, he felt very ashamed of himself. Deciding to share the poffins, he handed one to Tyke and another to Zorua.
"" Tyke told Zorua before happily taking the poffin in his mouth and chewing on it. A pleased look on his face. "" They were a dry flavor, the favorite of the pair. Saber also happily munched on his own.
With the Zoroark satiated, Asch stepped towards Faleen and the techs and huffed lightly. "I apologize for the trouble," he muttered. "He's usually not this... flighty." If that stupid nurse hadn't tried to give Saber a shot, this wouldn't have happened. Clearly it was all her fault.

Pulling her attention back to one of the Rocket tech when she spoke to Faleen, The Agent shifted her weight back up and over to the cart again, placing down another piece of seemingly in tact gear onto it, still holding the one that was obviously cracked "I'll bring it back to my work station and do what I can, if your okay with that." she replied, making eye contact with the other Rocket as she spoke to her. "I'll let you know as soon as I know for sure." Umbreon had walked back over to Faleen, the agent reached a hand down to stroke his head before looking over to the other Agent.
When Asch was done with the small group of dark pokemon, and moved toward them again with an apology, Faleen shifted to face him, eyebrows arching with a mild look of surprise that he was apologizing. It was appreciated, though not expected.
"I understand, Whats done is done though, thankfully he's under control now." The female Agent didn't look, or sound upset about this unfortunate situation, even if it was regrettable, getting angry about it wasn't going to change anything, or help. This kind of thing just happened sometimes.
She did let her eyes drift over to the large Pokemon standing with the two Zorua however, head tilting slightly. "What caused him to react like that?" she asked, looking back over to the younger Agent "Hopefully a repeat can be avoided in the future."
Zorua perked her ears up with a bright smile when Saber handed her a poffin, Barking happily in a thanks to the Zoroark and chomping it down

Asch frowned at the surprised look he received from Faleen. What? Was it really that uncommon for people to apologize when they or, their Pokemon, broke something? He didn't have to apologize you know.
The tech nodded, looking more than grateful at Faleen's offer. "That would be great, thanks!" The techs then glanced at Asch at his apology. "Well... so long as Seth doesn't kill us and string us up by our toenails, I guess its fine. These things happen, but he's got a bit of a short fuse."
Asch just lifted a brow at that, wondering what kind of man this Seth was. But then Faleen's question regained his attention. He sighed and tilted his head back to glance at the Zoroark behind him.
"He doesn't like labs, or anything associated with them. That friend of yours tried to give him a shot." Of course, that wasn't the entire story, but he remembered seeing that woman with Faleen. So she was bound to hear the whole thing eventually anyway. Had he realized that something like that would happen, he wouldn't have had Saber take his place.
Tyke waved his tail happily, glad to have finally been able to meet this Zorua properly. Deciding that he wanted to play, the male Zorua took on a pouncing stance. "Zoooor!"

Seth certainly did have a short fuse, and she couldn't imagine he would be very pleased with something like this happening, But the best they could do now was try and rectify the problem. "Its not a problem" She replied to the Tech with a slight nod.
"... Grunt Kofuku?" she asked, blinking again with a confused frown "Trying to give your Zoroark a shot? Considering she only have medical experience to work with humans, thats... ah, I'm assuming he was taking the form of a human at the time." Why she was going around trying to give him a shot though, she had no idea.
Faleen's attention was quickly taken over by the Zoroark again, head tilting to the side slightly, looking over at the large pokemon in the hall. "This is the first Zoroark I've seen so far. Their illusions are much more believable I noticed." what with the lack of Zorua tail. There was clear fascination and a bit of awe in the way Faleen surveyed the dark type, admiring the beast. Umbroen, who was sitting next to Faleen's boot was also eying the Zoroark, though with his usual stoic, studying gaze.
Finishing off her Poffin, right in time to her a playful how and the other Zorua dropping down playfully. Perking up happily, and spinning around to drop down into play mode, rump wiggling back and forth a few times as she let out a little growl and pounced at Tyke. "Raaaru!"
