>>46458744Dust from the old dirt road caked my boots, pausing at a bench for rest, I knocked away the dust with prejudice. The backwoods of Kanto were a strange place. Fence posts were laid down haphazardly and all the children were fascinated by inane little bugs. No matter, I had more important business to focus on. My boss sent me with the goal of retrieving a powerful piece of experimental technology, by any means necessary. Naturally, I was eager to leave as soon as possible. Theft would be my means and the job would be done before they knew what was going on. Apparently the device was in the hands of a team of sprockets, or something like that.
Continuing along the path, a large city began to appear in the distance. The skyline was unmistakable, this was my destination, Celadon City. Passing through the gate and entering the city proper, a man came up to me. At first I thought my cover had been blown, that it was all over, but then he started babbling on-and-on about magikarps. He even offered to sell me one.
"Why don't you go find another sucker, pal?" i asked, demanding to be left alone
"Sorry, sorry! my mistake, I forgot times are getting hard and some people don't even have 500 yen to spare." He replied. I was fuming. As he walked away from me I noticed a bright, red "R" on his chest. It occurred to me, in that moment, that I wasn't after a team of sprockets, but Team Rocket™
