Jak
I turned around, quite annoyed at the persistent Fire-type and I squinted my eyes at him as he talked about my trainer mockingly. "Listen... You don't know nothin' about my human... or at least what he used to be." I muttered staring at him flying forward again. I was facing him fully, as he continued on with his ranting. Riot and Swindler have great skills don't get me wrong. The way that the Zigzaroon took one of my cigars without me noticing was sure as enough shocking. And to beat the Elite Four alone... That took a lot of strength. Strength that my team needed, unlike that Umbreon.
I glared at the Blaziken seriously and put a cigar in my mouth. I lit it, took in a puff of smoke and breathed the cloud onto him, sayin', "You got a lot of nerve." I chuckled as I turned around and kept smokin'. "I like it." I stated simply, flickin' the ashes off the cigar. "Come on wit' us." I said, motioning my hand for Black-Fang to come along too. The Mightyena cocked his head up and eventually followed. I flew up into the air and we kept our pace until we had reached the distant ruins. There was a bit of fog, but nothin' to worry about. We could still see at the bottom. I got towards the entrance, knockin' on the stone door and a slot slid open, dark eyes starin' at the unknown members behind me. "What's the pass-" The gruff voice muttered behind the door but I shouted, "Oh shut it, Clarence! It's your boss; open up! I got recruits." The stone door slid open and it revealed a Gengar wearing black shades. "Sorry, boss. Just being secure like you asked me too." The Gengar stated softly.
We entered the stone ruins revealing a wide canopy of a faded red ceiling, the columns of the area lined with red velvet banners with spade symbols on them. In the center of the dim room, scattered with candles, there was a Weavile sharpening his claws with an emery board, an Ekans wrapped around a table with one scratched out eye and an Absol sifting through a map. The temperature was rather cold and the slow leaking from the rain coming from the roof didn't make it any better. They all caught there eyes on me and greeted me. "Hey, boss... who'd you bring with you?" The Weavile asked, tilting his head. The ekans rattled his tail in caution and the Absol looked at them as well. "Settle down guys. These are the new members of our family." I explained, holding my cigar in my beak. "Riot, Black-Fang. The Ekans is Eddie. The Weavile is Scratch and the Absol is Silver." I greeted, pointing to the corresponding pokemon. Scratch waved once and everyone else got back to their business. "Oh, and this is Pete!" I stated, almost forgetting about our doorman. Pete went into one of the rooms and brought out an Umbreon, the one that met us in the forest earlier. She was restrained, her feet tied to each other and her mouth wrapped around with a bandana.
"I found Monica blazing in through her and had her restrained" Pete explained, holding her up, "What do you want me do with her, boss?" I stared at her with my full red eyes and I said, "Put her in the center of the den. I need to make an example." Pete waltzed over to the den and dropped Monica on the ground, frowning a little. I stared down at her as she struggled in her bondage. "Tsk, tsk, Monica, tsk tsk." I chuckled, walking around her. She struggled to get the bandages off her mouth, but she finally did. "What do ya want, Jak? I did all that I could!" She shouted, flailing around and stared to get angry. I paused for a few short moment and stated, "You've been at this for too long, doll... With far too little success." I took in a bit of my cigar in the pausing moment. "I don't need a ball and chain in this operation, Monica. I don't need you anymore." I said, flying upward and I prepared my talon. "Weavile, throw me gun." I commanded, looking up at him. He didn't hesitate, tossing me the silver barreled glock and I caught it. "Wait.... You're gonna shoot me?!" She cried, her eyes widening as she flailed about even more. "No, I'm not gonna shoot you." I explained, turning around and handing the weapon to Blaziken, "He is."
I looked at Riot and muttered, "Now, if you're gonna prove somethin' to me... Take her life." The Umbreon whined and shouted on the floor, "No! No!!! Please don't do what he says!!" She was in shock, her heart racing at the current situation. "You got what ya came for. If you don't shoot, then we gotta chase ya down anyways, now shoot!" I shouted to him, waiting for his response and staring at Monica. "No!" She cried, her eyes flooding with tears. "Do it!!" I commanded, raising my voice in response to the screaming. At this point, the group was staring at me and Riot, waiting to see what was to become of this.
