Meanwhile, in Viridian City...
It was late in the evening when the phone rang, dragging Giovanni from his drunken stupor. He had been splayed over his desk, head in a puddle of drool, and his teeth tasted like a petroleum spill. He smacked his lips and blearily stared at the phone as if he had absolutely no idea what the device even was. After a cough, a few swallows of whatever was left in the bottle to wash the taste of stale alcohol and cigarettes down his throat, he cleared his throat and answered the phone, trying his hardest to control the groggy slur in his voice. "Yes?"
"Sir, if you have a moment, you should come back to the compound," the voice on the other end was hushed.
"Why? Have you found that brat?" The day finally sunk in as the alcohol began to fade from his brain. "I do not have the time, nor the patience to deal with such shenanigans. Do you realize how much his actions had cost us? We have been set back at least a month! If you find that lunatic, have him... disposed of. Immediately! He is a threat! I will not have such flagrant breaches of security in my midst! And have you cleaned up my office? I demand a full reset of our security systems, Protocol 4!"
"Sir!" the woman's voice interrupted before dropping once more in volume, "Sir, it would be best if you return at your earliest convenience. This is not a secure line and I refuse to discuss this any more than I should."
Giovanni caught the hint as he sat up straighter. "I'm on my way." He hung up, pulled himself to his feet, and went to the bathroom to make himself look presentable. After a quick shower, shave, and a fresh change of clothes, Giovanni stopped in his home office once more, slipping a flask into his pocket. He then walked quickly outside, got into his car, and drove to his gym.
