You have no chance to survive

[these_balls]

Who: Rocket Grunts, Magma Grunts, and Aqua Grunts! Basically all the Grunts!
Where: The Whirl Islands and Cinnabar Island
When: February 1st
Summary: Pretty much this
Rating: PG-13? It doesn't need to higher than that? Right, guys?
Log:

The orders are pretty simple. Go in. Wipe out the Team Aqua and Magma Grunts. That's it. So there's not going to be any farewell speeches or anything like that from the Admins because they're of the opinion that you guys have totally got this.

And if you don't...

Well, don't worry about that for now.

Instead, just worry about getting to the nearest base and boarding a helicopter. After that, you've got a short (or long, depending on which base you're heading to) ride ahead of you to some islands in the middle of the ocean, inhabited by a bunch of Aqua and Magma Grunts who have no idea this surprise is on the way. So just do what you do best, Rockets!

And as far as the Admins are concerned what you do best should be to win at all costs. Anything less and well, that would just be an embarrassing return to the region for them. And nobody wants that.

“No way! Team Aqua never...gives...oh...wait, no!”

Psybeam KO's Golbat! It's all over!

“You've got to be kidding me!”

She'll never live this down. In fact, she's not even sticking around to hear him gloat, and is immediately escape roping out of here. Enjoy your victory, Micchy, and have fun looting the base if you choose to do so!

He just laughs a little bit, and recalls Yoshiro, going off to look through the computers for anything useful. He'd probably get rewarded if he brought back good information.

... If nothing else maybe he can find a laptop or something to bring back to the science division to use.

[whos_that]

Hope he brought a Porygon since most of the desktops seem to be password locked. And no, the password isn't Aqua. Or Archie. Or Kyogre. Or even water. One of them does seem to be working though, but all it's displaying is the local Team Aqua intranet. So there's Archie's blog and some random resources like Team Aqua's handbook, a list of Pokemon Grunts can carry, and stuff like that.

There's also a nonfunctioning laptop off to the side on a shelf should he want to turn that in later.

[grapeeater]

Damn it. He didn't, and so most of the information is inaccessible. He does commit what he can find to memory, and grabs the laptop.

If they don't want it he can probably feed it to a Steel type or something. He's just going to poke around the area a bit more to see if anyone's dropped anything of use. People sometimes don't think to look under the tables when they've lost things. Hiding under tables worked for him in the past!

[whos_that]

Under the tables things are...kind of gross actually. There's a lot of used gum stuck to the bottom of some of them. Some loose change has made its way under there too. Lots of Rage Candy Bar wrappers. A ton of dust. And under one particular table...an Escape Rope?!

How did that even get there?

[grapeeater]

You know what, he'll take it. And do his best to avoid the gum. He... considers the change for a moment and then pockets it. It's not like he's rich here like he is at home. Travel supplies are expensive.

He'll just head on off to see if he can find some other team members. Watching them should be amusing, if nothing else.
