4TH PIECE - [VIDEO/ACTION FOR THE GOLDENROD TEAM ROCKET BASE]

A - [VIDEO]

[[When the feed opens, it's slanted and awkward, as if the Gear had fallen to the ground and currently lies forgotten. There's a good reason for its owners forgetfulness, really; Kato's Zweilous has finally evolved into its final form, Hydreigon, and can currently be seen on the feed, snarling.

What makes it awkward is the fact that the person it is currently snarling at is its trainer, who is pressed up against the wall with an expression full of anger and fear. In the background lie fragments of what must have been a large, powerful machine.]]


Pluto, I am your master, and you will-!!

[[There's a sudden fiery flash of light, and a Flamethrower attack collides with the Hydreigon's side, causing it to shriek in fury and lunge forward. Not, however, at the Pokemon attacking it from offscreen, but at Kato, who isn't able to avoid the attack and starts screaming as the mindless beast digs its teeth into his upper arm, the duo falling to the ground as the feed cuts out.]]


B - [LOCKED VIDEO/ACTION]

[[The feed opens up again soon after, showing a non-descript hallway in what could be some sort of....warehouse? Factory? For those of it who are familiar with it, however, it's obviously the Team Rocket base, and sitting right in the middle of the hallway is a growling, shrieking Hydreigon, clawing at the walls and firing off Dark Pulse attacks up and down the hall. It's obviously seeking an escape but can't find one, and a bad burn spread across its side is causing it pain, only serving to make its rage increase.]]

Fire Flamethrower again!

[[The voice belongs to Kato, and a Typhlosion immediately appears on the screen, flames blazing across his back as he charges up and releases another fiercely powerful attack, colliding perfectly with the Hydreigon's other side. Kato doesn't appear on the feed but his presence is obvious, judging by the strained breathing heard in the background of the image. His own injury is aching, but he doesn't have the time to get it treated. Not, at least, until his rogue Pokemon is brought to heel.]]



C - [LOCKED AUDIO/ACTION]

[[It's later on, and Kato's Hydreigon has been successfully subdued. The scientist is currently sitting in the laboratory, looking murderous, while a nervous assistant wraps a bandage around his injured arm. He's discarded his glasses, coat and cravat, and looks incredibly dishelleved. His hair is untidy, his black shirt untucked, unbuttoned and half-off while the poor assistant does her best to give him first aid. With his good arm, Kato punches a few numbers into his Gear, not really in the mood to send a video message while he's half-naked.]]

If my Pokemon caused you or your property any damage, report it to me. I'm in my lab.

[[Once he finishes speaking, he shoves the Gear back into his pocket, snarling in pain as the bandage pulls against his wound.]]

Will you be careful?




[[OOC: Just pop the letter corresponding to the option you'd like in your subject line! And yes, the video feed is unlocked, so non-members are free to engage Kato in option A should you like to! :>]]

[Luke is smirking broadly, absolutely unsympathetic to Kato's plight. In fact--]

EAT HIM! C'MON, GO FOR THE NECK!

NO! GET OVER THERE, KEEP--

[But alas, off wanders the Hydreigon, and Luke is left sneering disdainfully as Kato comes into view.]

Ha! Not feeling so good now, huh?

[There's a flash of defensive anger in Luke's face because yes, he was precisely thinking that way, but he stifles it.]

Nah, it's just nice seeing you get taken down a peg or five.

[Luke's sneer morphs into an all-out snarl.]

Just wait until I get my hands on you...!!

[And Luke nearly flips out at that smug, smug, confident tone--until it hits him.

He can't go back.

Shadow's still got his microchip--not that Luke knows about the microchip--and so he's been pushing Luke back to Goldenrod, gradually. And Luke, for lack of anywhere else to go and the police on his tail, went. But he can't go back to base now, not with Dist there and Kato there, not when they've shown their true faces.

It's all on his face: the anger, the realization, the despair. With a cry of rage, Luke flings away the 'gear, and it shuts off when it hits an obstacle.

Kato wins this one, again.]
