Topic: RPM POKEMON ADVENTURE THING

[White-Jet]

"Well...we'll have to talk to this 'Archie' after we're done here," Jenny begins, "As for his creator, we'll send someone from our unit to escort him here as quietly and docile as possible.  If you have his phone number, I suggest giving him a heads up so he doesn't get startled by the sudden appearance of the official."

[Quickman]

"I don't have his number on me, though I guess I could call the Pokemon Center," Quickie shrugged.  She paused for a long moment.  "What's going to happen to Mewtwo?  He didn't intend for the damage in Fuchsia, and the fight on Route 11, he let his emotions get the better of him.  He was angry because some ex-goon from Team Rocket found his clones and brainwashed them..." she trailed off as another thought struck her. "What about his clones?  He's really concerned over them..."

[Dr. Wily II]

Meowth just stares back, remembering this guy from Stone Town, though he barely paid much attention due to the amount of walloping he was getting from the other Pokemon.  He would expect him to just stare him, think nothing of it, then move back to checking on the clones; though it does beg the question of how he was able to get the clones to listen to him despite all of the other citizens practically shirking the ones with the odd patterns on their body.

Dr. Wily II finally reached Meowth, crouched down, and stared at him. "I have a lot of questions for you... One of them being are you here to cause trouble again."

Domino--under the guise of Harley from the Pokemon Institute--and Joe made their way to booking and holding, followed by a few officers and the Pal Park wardens, Lee and Kirby.  Domino had introduced Joe as her assistant and even provided him with an alias, "Gideon."  For all intents and purposes, they were researchers from the Pokemon Institute who specialized in the psychiatry of psychic Pokemon.

The group waited until the door was unlocked and the wardens were the first to enter, followed by Domino and Joe, and an officer.

Curled up in the corner was Mewtwo, who just seemed troubled.  Lee smiled at him as he and Kirby took up flanking positions beside the clone. "There are some people here to talk to you, okay?  They're going to ask you some questions and look you over, make sure you didn't hurt yourself earlier today."

Kirby nodded. "We're just here to make sure you don't get too agitated.  No one is going to hurt you."

Joe stared at the figure slummed in the corner... So that's the legendary Mewtwo... Looks more haggard than he expected. Then again, a lot of things went down since Fuschia City. He stayed behind Domino, as he watched the two wardens flank Mewtwo. Officer Jenny then stepped forward and cautiously approached Mewtwo.

"Well, I'm Officer Jenny, but I guessed you know that already. So let's just cut to the chase. Are you responsible for the explosion at Fuschia City? If so, and why."

[Quickman]

Mewtwo nodded. "The explosion was an unintended consequence of my actions.  What I was trying to do required a substantial amount of energy, and all that energy was expended at once.  The damage was not my intention."

Lee looked to Domino and Joe. "Eloquent, isn't he?  Gave me a shock when I first heard him speak.  Wasn't expecting it."

Domino nodded and adopted her thick Queens accent. "Haven't dealt with too many psychics, have ya?"

"Only when we're stocking the park," Lee nodded.

"They generally just want to get out there and hide," Kirby added.

[Sakura Leic]

(The more I hear about Pal Park the more disgusted I get.  Then again Fuschia keep Pokemon in zoos anyway.)

[White-Jet]

Meowth chuffs as he lifts his paw to lick himself, only to remember the bandage wrapped around his wrist, "After what I heard, no way!  I could have helped if that Raticate of a human didn't convince Jessie and James that Mewtwo is a brainwashing menace that enslaves any human it sees!"

"I don't have his number on me, though I guess I could call the Pokemon Center," Quickie shrugged.  She paused for a long moment.  "What's going to happen to Mewtwo?  He didn't intend for the damage in Fuchsia, and the fight on Route 11, he let his emotions get the better of him.  He was angry because some ex-goon from Team Rocket found his clones and brainwashed them..." she trailed off as another thought struck her. "What about his clones?  He's really concerned over them..."

Jenny seemed hesitant about what to say next concerning Mewtwo's welfare.

"Right now, he's being looked at by the Pokemon Institute and the rangers from the Pal Park in Fuchsia City," she said, "As for the clones, Nurse Joy called earlier and said they were being examined as we speak.  At the moment she has only reported damage caused by the fight between the clones that were under the green tailed Mewtwo's possession, and the ones that weren't, and she is keeping their presence safe from the public thanks to the person you pointed out earlier.  However, if the organization succeeds in proving their right to control Mewtwo, they may start pushing to apprehend his clones and perform their own examinations under written accordance of the law.  You may end up having to go to court in order to fight this, but since the organization clearly has more information and source material than you do, there's a grim possibility you might lose and have to personally return Mewtwo to them, regardless of how much it doesn't want to."

[Mirby]

Taylor slumped over a bit in her unconsciousness, and managed to slump at just the right angle to hit the button of one of her Poké Balls against the chair. Out came Kovu, who sensed that his Trainer was injured and dragged her off the chair to the ground carefully. With her laying down flat, he set about cleaning the wound with his tongue.

[Dr. Wily II]

Mewtwo nodded. "The explosion was an unintended consequence of my actions.  What I was trying to do required a substantial amount of energy, and all that energy was expended at once.  The damage was not my intention."

Lee looked to Domino and Joe. "Eloquent, isn't he?  Gave me a shock when I first heard him speak.  Wasn't expecting it."

Domino nodded and adopted her thick Queens accent. "Haven't dealt with too many psychics, have ya?"

"Only when we're stocking the park," Lee nodded.

"They generally just want to get out there and hide," Kirby added.

Officer Jenny slowly walked away from Mewtwo before continuing. "Not intentional? I have witnesses saying that you were using your psychic powers on an old man. AN OLD MAN!! You had the gall to do that in board daylight!! And you want to say the damage in unintentional!?"

Meowth chuffs as he lifts his paw to lick himself, only to remember the bandage wrapped around his wrist, "After what I heard, no way!  I could have helped if that Raticate of a human didn't convince Jessie and James that Mewtwo is a brainwashing menace that enslaves any human it sees!"

"I have read up on your... Exploits back in the darker days of my Team Rocket past... And let's just say I still don't really trust you." Dr. Wily II got up from his crouch, and his tone turned less serious. "However... Seeing as the other clone Pokemon seemed to trust you given the recent events... I'll take you word for it, just this once. However, if anything happens to these clone Pokemon, I will not hesitate to inform the authorities."

[White-Jet]

Meowth crosses his arms and turns away from WilyII, "Judge me how you will.  As of right now, my only concern is saving Mewtwo from those outrageous lies Team Rocket seems adamant about sticking to as facts and going on a crusade because of them."

[Quickman]

Jenny seemed hesitant about what to say next concerning Mewtwo's welfare.

"Right now, he's being looked at by the Pokemon Institute and the rangers from the Pal Park in Fuchsia City," she said, "As for the clones, Nurse Joy called earlier and said they were being examined as we speak.  At the moment she has only reported damage caused by the fight between the clones that were under the green tailed Mewtwo's possession, and the ones that weren't, and she is keeping their presence safe from the public thanks to the person you pointed out earlier.  However, if the organization succeeds in proving their right to control Mewtwo, they may start pushing to apprehend his clones and perform their own examinations under written accordance of the law.  You may end up having to go to court in order to fight this, but since the organization clearly has more information and source material than you do, there's a grim possibility you might lose and have to personally return Mewtwo to them, regardless of how much it doesn't want to."

Quickie frowned again and dropped her gaze to the table.  "I don't suppose Wily could take ownership of him..."  She sighed. "Mewtwo didn't intend to cause that explosion.  He just focused too much energy into it.  It's another long story, and it'd be best to hear it from Wily, but Mewtwo was trying to help him.  Wily told Mewtwo to use Disable on him, which he did.  He just focused too much energy into it and it blew up.  He didn't mean to cause that much damage."

Officer Jenny slowly walked away from Mewtwo before continuing. "Not intentional? I have witnesses saying that you were using your psychic powers on an old man. AN OLD MAN!! You had the gall to do that in board daylight!! And you want to say the damage in unintentional!?"

"He asked me to!" Mewtwo snapped, getting to his feet and standing at his full height. "You do not understand!  This needed to be done, as what that man was becoming was something that he had locked away for years.  Something that I had aided in locking away!  And that evil personality was emerging, and at the moment, only I had the power to do something about it!" He stepped forward, prompting the wardens to move in.

"Easy there, big fella," Lee warned. "We just want to talk."

Domino didn't move from her spot. "Words can't hurt ya, so re-lax."

Mewtwo ignored them and fixed his glare on Officer Jenny. "The surrounding structural damage was an unintended consequence of the energy I expended.  If I wished to cause damage to the city, I could have leveled it quite easily."

[Dr. Wily II]

Meowth crosses his arms and turns away from WilyII, "Judge me how you will.  As of right now, my only concern is saving Mewtwo from those outrageous lies Team Rocket seems adamant about sticking to as facts and going on a crusade because of them."

"First things first, once the clone Pokemon have recovered, we need to get them out and away from any more prying eyes. That will at least give Mewtwo some peace of mind knowing his family are not harmed. As for the lies... Where are your other buddies?" Dr. Wily II asked.

"He asked me to!" Mewtwo snapped, getting to his feet and standing at his full height. "You do not understand!  This needed to be done, as what that man was becoming was something that he had locked away for years.  Something that I had aided in locking away!  And that evil personality was emerging, and at the moment, only I had the power to do something about it!" He stepped forward, prompting the wardens to move in.

"Easy there, big fella," Lee warned. "We just want to talk."

Domino didn't move from her spot. "Words can't hurt ya, so re-lax."

Mewtwo ignored them and fixed his glare on Officer Jenny. "The surrounding structural damage was an unintended consequence of the energy I expended.  If I wished to cause damage to the city, I could have leveled it quite easily."

"So you COULD have leveled the city... Are you saying I should THANK you for not doing so? Fine, enough of Fuschia. Care to explain what happened at Route 15? We found a huge hole in the ground, and witnesses have seen a Steelix in that hole. Did you try to control that Steelix and use it to cause even more damage? The explosion and that hole happened too coincidentally!!" Officer Jenny stopped and turned back to face Mewtwo.

Joe, on the other hand, had hid himself behind Domino after seeing Mewtwo's aggression.

[Mirby]

Kovu carefully applied a little flame to the wound in an effort to cauterize it. He knew she wouldn't be happy if she came to with a glob of blood mixed into her hair, and he truly did care about her, so he kept on cleaning the wound and cauterizing it slowly but surely.

[Quickman]

"So you COULD have leveled the city... Are you saying I should THANK you for not doing so? Fine, enough of Fuschia. Care to explain what happened at Route 15? We found a huge hole in the ground, and witnesses have seen a Steelix in that hole. Did you try to control that Steelix and use it to cause even more damage? The explosion and that hole happened too coincidentally!!" Officer Jenny stopped and turned back to face Mewtwo.

Joe, on the other hand, had hid himself behind Domino after seeing Mewtwo's aggression.

"That I had absolutely nothing to do with," Mewtwo glowered. "That hole was caused by a battleship owned by a former Team Rocket agent.  I claim no knowledge of that event." He folded his arms and dropped that subject.

Domino nodded to Jenny. "Might want to move onto something else, hon."  She looked to Joe. "When we were contacted, they said that it was involved with other Pokemon?  Ones with 'weird' markings on them?  Caused a big ol' ruckus out on Route 11, didn't it, G?  Too bad we missed out on that, woulda liked to've seen it."

[Dr. Wily II]

"That I had absolutely nothing to do with," Mewtwo glowered. "That hole was caused by a battleship owned by a former Team Rocket agent.  I claim no knowledge of that event." He folded his arms and dropped that subject.

Domino nodded to Jenny. "Might want to move onto something else, hon."  She looked to Joe. "When we were contacted, they said that it was involved with other Pokemon?  Ones with 'weird' markings on them?  Caused a big ol' ruckus out on Route 11, didn't it, G?  Too bad we missed out on that, woulda liked to've seen it."

"I was getting to that." Officer Jenny approached Mewtwo again. "Now then. Route 11. Way more collateral damage. And as mentioned by Ms Harley, Pokemon with weird markings on them. Witnesses had seen the destruction these Pokemon were causing, and they were all seemingly led by... Another YOU!! I really want to see how you will explain out of this one."

[Quickman]

"Quite easily," Mewtwo nodded. "The impostor had taken my form using tarot cards.  Your forces had taken the man into custody.  Thus, I cannot be blamed for the start of that damage, as it was not caused by myself, and, as I said, you have the man in custody.  The rest of the battle, however..." He trailed off and his demeanor changed. "Those other Pokemon... they were my family.  It angered me that someone had found them and used my form to control them.  And now, they are out in the open!" He snapped his glare to Jenny once more. "Out in the open and in danger!  Controlled by that impostor!  I had to protect them, and I fought to protect them!"

Mewtwo stopped and looked away. "I had allowed my emotions to take charge, something that I promised to keep from happening.  And for that, I am sincerely sorry, as my own actions had put them in even greater danger.  Others know their origins.  Others know that they are clones."

Domino kept her face from showing the smirk as Mewtwo gradually dug the grave for his little friends.  Just need the nails for that coffin, now... "People were worried that they were diseased, so they called us up to check 'em out."

[White-Jet]

"First things first, once the clone Pokemon have recovered, we need to get them out and away from any more prying eyes. That will at least give Mewtwo some peace of mind knowing his family are not harmed. As for the lies... Where are your other buddies?" Dr. Wily II asked.

Meowth grumbles as he rubs the back of his head, "Well...to be honest, I kinda was intending to gather them in order to help drive away Team Rocket before they attempt to capture Mewtwo and his friend while blinded by that brainwashing accusation.  I just didn't think that card Carr took from us would be able to copy part of the Transform abilities used by Dittos, and now that this has happened, it's almost a given that Team Rocket will take advantage of the fiasco to reclaim ownership along with Mewtwo, using whatever information and sources are hidden in their base to outweigh the good Mewtwo has done and the friendship he shares with that green-haired trainer.  And I have a feeling, since they know more about Mewtwo than she does, it'll take no less than a single trial snatch ownership out of her hands...."

Quickie frowned again and dropped her gaze to the table.  "I don't suppose Wily could take ownership of him..."  She sighed. "Mewtwo didn't intend to cause that explosion.  He just focused too much energy into it.  It's another long story, and it'd be best to hear it from Wily, but Mewtwo was trying to help him.  Wily told Mewtwo to use Disable on him, which he did.  He just focused too much energy into it and it blew up.  He didn't mean to cause that much damage."

Jenny compresses her lips in concern, "I'm afraid that, by law, Mewtwo must be returned to the leader of the organization, not the division responsible for creating it.  He invested its study, experiments, and creation, therefore he has more knowledge of what it is capable of, and means of controlling it, than even the scientists assigned to execute the project.  At trial, he will be the most possible candidate to represent the organization that is fighting for Mewtwo's return, and if he wins by evidence alone, he will be the only one that will relieve ownership from you regardless of how much it refuses to cooperate."

She brings her folded fists towards her lower face, but doesn't press it against her lips, "All of the accusations to prove that Mewtwo didn't know what he was doing will only weigh against your right to control it.  You weren't present when the explosion went off, and the accusation of its creator begging him to unleash that powerful Disable spell may easily be chalked up as more 'mind tricks' during the midst of the attack being unleashed.  Ergo, your 'inexperience' during the the two incidents it was caught in will only give the organization more reason to not only rip ownership off your hands, but ensure that it never sets foot in public without their leader firmly clutching whatever means of control he deems necessary to the safety and welfare of the populous."

[Dr. Wily II]

"Quite easily," Mewtwo nodded. "The impostor had taken my form using tarot cards.  Your forces had taken the man into custody.  Thus, I cannot be blamed for the start of that damage, as it was not caused by myself, and, as I said, you have the man in custody.  The rest of the battle, however..." He trailed off and his demeanor changed. "Those other Pokemon... they were my family.  It angered me that someone had found them and used my form to control them.  And now, they are out in the open!"

Domino kept her face from showing the smirk as Mewtwo gradually dug the grave for his little friends.  Just need the nails for that coffin, now... "People were worried that they were diseased, so they called us up to check 'em out."

"T-Tarot... C-C-ards... TAROT CARDS!?" Officer Jenny broke out into boisterous laughter. "OH GOD PLEASE DON'T STOP!! TAROT CARDS!? A MAN TAKING YOUR FORM!? THIS IS SO PRICELESS!!"

After a few minutes of getting her composure back, Officer Jenny stared hard at Mewtwo. "Now, let's be serious. Are you trying to say MAGIC is involved? Because there's no such thing as magic. Those Pokemon were clearly carrying out your projected orders, and to throw us all off, you clearly used a Shiny projection of yourself. Your fight was all clearly a ruse. All orchestrated... By YOU."

Officer Jenny turned away, but continued speaking to Mewtwo... "Whatever the case, I have my answers now. Your... Trainer and her friends will be brought in for further questioning, that I will assure you. You only have yourself to blame." Facing Domino... "I'm done here. You and your assistant have my jurisdication to find, capture, and examine those strange Pokemon." With that, Officer Jenny left.

Meowth grumbles as he rubs the back of his head, "Well...to be honest, I kinda was intending to gather them in order to help drive away Team Rocket before they attempt to capture Mewtwo and his friend while blinded by that brainwashing accusation.  I just didn't think that card Carr took from us would be able to copy part of the Transform abilities used by Dittos, and now that this has happened, it's almost a given that Team Rocket will take advantage of the fiasco to reclaim ownership along with Mewtwo, using whatever information and sources are hidden in their base to outweigh the good Mewtwo has done and the friendship he shares with that green-haired trainer.  And I have a feeling, since they know more about Mewtwo than she does, it'll take no less than a single trial snatch ownership out of her hands...."

Dr. Wily II took a moment for Meowth's words to sink in. Giovanni was pulling the strings again. And at that slight moment of distraction, he grabbed his chest again. Panting slightly, he said... "While, we shall make proper use of the present then. Since you are the mastermind of the trio, do you have any plans?"

[Mirby]

Taylor began to rouse from her unintended slumber, the wound now fully cauterized from Kovu's intervention. He was staring at her happily, and she rubbed the fur on his head. "What... happened?" she asked, slightly disoriented by her surroundings. She was listening to what Officer Jenny was saying, and was just conscious enough to realize she was talking about returning Mewtwo to Team Rocket. This snapped her back to clarity. "And what if you give him back and they use him to cause even more destruction than he's done unintentionally?" she asked suddenly.

[White-Jet]

Meowth seemed irked by WilyII's sudden grabbing of his chest, but quickly disregards it as the sign of age; he is wrinkly old after all.

"My plan was to have the clones help free Mewtwo from the wrongful accusations Team Rocket is drilling into their own skulls, but since they're already this deep in Groudon manure, I think the next plan is to try and save them from whatever persecution Team Rocket might use to force them back under their manipulated thumb."


After using a Hi-Potion to get Excalibur back on his feet, Hierophant prepares to contemplate how to get into the station and get the cards back from Yamask when he noticed some squad cars rolling out of the station, each of them bearing the single equivalent of Eight Wands, all aimed at the Pokemon Center in Vermilion City.

"I think we should head back there and check up on the clones, just in case things get out of hand," he mutters before picking up Tarot Skitty and hopping onto Excalibur's back, allowing him to take flight and follow after the cars.

[Mirby]

"And what if Team Rocket is doing all they can to ensure that you play into their hands? Sakura already accused that Officer that attacked me with a chair of being some Team Rocket schmuck named James! Y'all could be compromised by those goons and not even realize it!" she exclaimed indignantly.

[Quickman]

Jenny compresses her lips in concern, "I'm afraid that, by law, Mewtwo must be returned to the leader of the organization, not the division responsible for creating it.  He invested its study, experiments, and creation, therefore he has more knowledge of what it is capable of, and means of controlling it, than even the scientists assigned to execute the project.  At trial, he will be the most possible candidate to represent the organization that is fighting for Mewtwo's return, and if he wins by evidence alone, he will be the only one that will relieve ownership from you regardless of how much it refuses to cooperate."

She brings her folded fists towards her lower face, but doesn't press it against her lips, "All of the accusations to prove that Mewtwo didn't know what he was doing will only weigh against your right to control it.  You weren't present when the explosion went off, and the accusation of its creator begging him to unleash that powerful Disable spell may easily be chalked up as more 'mind tricks' during the midst of the attack being unleashed.  Ergo, your 'inexperience' during the the two incidents it was caught in will only give the organization more reason to not only rip ownership off your hands, but ensure that it never sets foot in public without their leader firmly clutching whatever means of control he deems necessary to the safety and welfare of the populous."

Quickie bowed her head.  Team Rocket was far too powerful, and they had their hands in the pockets of the entire region.  The trial was going to be a disaster and Mewtwo would be returned to Team Rocket custody posthaste.  "All they'll do is hurt him and his clones.  That's all they've done before.  That's all they'll do again."

"T-Tarot... C-C-ards... TAROT CARDS!?" Officer Jenny broke out into boisterous laughter. "OH GOD PLEASE DON'T STOP!! TAROT CARDS!? A MAN TAKING YOUR FORM!? THIS IS SO PRICELESS!!"

After a few minutes of getting her composure back, Officer Jenny stared hard at Mewtwo. "Now, let's be serious. Are you trying to say MAGIC is involved? Because there's no such thing as magic. Those Pokemon were clearly carrying out your projected orders, and to throw us all off, you clearly used a Shiny projection of yourself. Your fight was all clearly a ruse. All orchestrated...

You and your assistant have my jurisdication to find, capture, and examine those strange Pokemon." With that, Officer Jenny left.

It took a lot of energy to resist lunging at Jenny or Domino, but Mewtwo didn't move.  He turned his glare toward Domino and Joe. "If you even dare to touch my clones--"

"You really shouldn't threaten anyone," Lee spoke up.  

Domino nodded. "Sorry, hon, but you're not in any position to be making threats like that.  We're just going to check your friends, make sure they're not diseased.  You, as well.  Guess ya haven't looked in a mirror, lately, but you're not lookin' too hot yourself.  Might just need groomed, hasn't your trainer been taking care of ya?"

Mewtwo narrowed his eyes and didn't dignify that question with a response.

"If you guys want to check him over now, we could handle him for you," Lee nodded.  

Kirby moved closer. "Yeah, he's pretty cooperative.  Just be gentle with him, show that you're not a threat."

Domino shoved Joe forward. "You heard 'em, G."

[Dr. Wily II]

Meowth seemed irked by WilyII's sudden grabbing of his chest, but quickly disregards it as the sign of age; he is wrinkly old after all.

"My plan was to have the clones help free Mewtwo from the wrongful accusations Team Rocket is drilling into their own skulls, but since they're already this deep in Groudon manure, I think the next plan is to try and save them from whatever persecution Team Rocket might use to force them back under their manipulated thumb."

"Sounds like a plan... I just hope that the examination for the rest of the Pokemon will be done soon..." Dr. Wily II said, releasing his grip on his chest.

It took a lot of energy to resist lunging at Jenny or Domino, but Mewtwo didn't move.  He turned his glare toward Domino and Joe. "If you even dare to touch my clones--"

"You really shouldn't threaten anyone," Lee spoke up. 

Domino nodded. "Sorry, hon, but you're not in any position to be making threats like that.  We're just going to check your friends, make sure they're not diseased.  You, as well.  Guess ya haven't looked in a mirror, lately, but you're not lookin' too hot yourself.  Might just need groomed, hasn't your trainer been taking care of ya?"

Mewtwo narrowed his eyes and didn't dignify that question with a response.

"If you guys want to check him over now, we could handle him for you," Lee nodded. 

Kirby moved closer. "Yeah, he's pretty cooperative.  Just be gentle with him, show that you're not a threat."

Domino shoved Joe forward. "You heard 'em, G."

Joe meeped as he was shoved in front of Mewtwo. Staring at his narrowed eyes, Joe can't help but feel VERY intimidated. "... E-Eh... H-Hi there-e-e?"

[White-Jet]

Meowth looks outside only to notice some flashing lights heading towards the Center, "Yeah...so do I...."

Quickie bowed her head.  Team Rocket was far too powerful, and they had their hands in the pockets of the entire region.  The trial was going to be a disaster and Mewtwo would be returned to Team Rocket custody posthaste.  "All they'll do is hurt him and his clones.  That's all they've done before.  That's all they'll do again."

"I'm sorry...I truly am...." Jenny mutters remorsefully, "But there isn't enough Mewtwo species in existence to enact our Pokemon cruelty accusations, and plenty of witnesses claim they saw that the second Mewtwo that attacked Route 11 and Vermilion City revert back to a short man, so we can't count that as an increase in population.  I'm afraid, as long as the organization has the information and means of keeping it from causing any more problems, we have no choice but to abide by law and order you to surrender it back to them once their resources prove more worthy than whatever evidence you present to show otherwise."

From behind the window, James tsks in frustration, feeling useless to do anything that would help or betray both Mewtwo's well being and his loyalty to Team Rocket.

Deep down, he didn't want Mewtwo to be forced back into Team Rocktet's mitts, remembering the cruelty they caused him during their fight on Mt. Quena.  But at the same time he can't do a thing about it lest he not only gets fired, but also hunted down and killed for being involved in something only Giovanni thinks should never be leaked into the public.  And since Giovanni knows more about Mewtwo than anyone else, he will more than gladly step before the court and wave his sources before the jury without even breaking a sweat, ensuring Mewtwo is back within their clutches to be reduced to a mindless puppet just like that Alakazam he heard WilyII preach about prior to being hit by that powerful Disable attack.

But what can he do to resolve the situation?  Jessie is still missing, Meowth doesn't want to go anywhere near him for fear of Team Rocket noticing and forcing him to cooperate, and his lone charge will only make him an associate that will tempt Giovanni to have him removed from society in the least attention-grabbing means possible.

Oh, now you decide to inflate that cold heart of yours.... Danny snorts, A little late to show your chivalry side.

"Will you shut up!?" James seethed while slapping Danny's card, "I don't need your two PokeCents weighing me down!"

You can hide that facade all you want.  As long as any of us are within the normal sight, we can see what kind of energy is raining upon you and decide how to act on it.

James raises his fist to hit it again only to be caught by Yamask.  But the contact causes a sudden surge of Red and Green sparks to crawl around them, forcing them away from each other before the same explosion calls more attention from the outside.

[Mirby]

(Are my posts being ignored? Cause no one seems to be mentioning them...)

[Quickman]

"He won't surrender quietly," Quickie still didn't look up from the table. "He didn't surrender in Stone Town.  They forced him down.  They had stun batons, and I tried to help him, but they used the same batons on me.  Then, they torched my business.  Wily said that when they had Mewtwo, they had to keep him sedated so that he wouldn't attack anyone."  She finally looked up.  "How do you plan on controlling him?  If he feels that he needs to defend himself, he will."  She also pointed to Taylor.  "And what about her accusations?"

(Brought you back into the story. )
