Phil woke to the sound of a Fletchling singing. It's beautiful melody floated through the window, and into his ears. The sweet song tickled his ears, waking him gently.

Phil stretched and walked down stairs. He was alone this morning, for, his Pokemon had slept onside their Pokeballs the previous night. Phil spotted Denny, once again enjoying breakfast, with another short, Johtoian looking boy.

"Hey, Denny, who is this?"

"I am Julian, Denny, is this Phil?"

"Yes, Julian, this is Phil. Phil, this is my friend to help us with our problem."

"Oh, so, how do you do it?"

"Venator secret, sorry."

"It's fine, come on, I'll lead the way. Wait, what is a Venator?"

"We are trackers, extremely skilled ones at that. We must get moving though."

So, Phil lead the small group to where the man teleported away. He retold the events of yesterday for Julian.

"How did you get in? The bar is twenty-one and up."

"Invisibility."

"Oh, so that is what I was picking up from your coat."

"Yes, so anyway, what can you do?"

Julian closed his eyes, appearing to go into deep concentration. Phil closed his eyes, and watched as Julian's Aura spiked. It glowed with power, a brilliant blue. It then surged outward, and slowly began to circle a small spot.

"Phil, I can now go on a recon mission."

"I'm coming with you."

"I have years of stealth training."

"I can turn invisible and silent."

"Julian, just let him go with you."

"Fine, not my fault if he dies."

"Thanks for the encouragement," Phil sarcastically responded.

Julian directed Phil to grab his hand, and once again, Julian concentrated. Phil, for the third time ever, felt like he was being squeezed through a very small tube. Just when it felt like he was going to suffocate, he popped back out.

They were in a very militaristic looking base. With metal walls, boxes stacked everywhere, and a generally strict feeling atmosphere. Phil noticed various uniforms though, one was black with a red letter. Another was black, again, with a strange hat and a shield emblem. Yet another looked more like a Alolan Pirate outfit. However, the weirdest one looked like a spacesuit with a G on it. The people wearing this uniform had hilarious bowl-cut hair.

Julian slipped off, and Phil split up with him. Heading in the direction that was down. He passed through some labs, seeing all kinds of horrible experiments. He found files for a Project Red Velvet, Project Blueberry, and a Kalos Madman. He found the crushed remains of a hearimg aid, something he found odd. He found still other files of a Project Cosmos, Project Stars, and Project Switcheroo.

Phil quickly swept up the files and stowed them away. He left the hearing aid, assuming it belonged to an impaired scientist.

He looked through the building, finding evidence of many criminal acts. Including, theft, kidnapping, murder, illegal and immoral experiments, and other horrid things.

The building's lower labs where locked. He couldn't get in without loud noises echoing through the building. So, he turned around. He came upon officer's quarters, which included some odd objects that seemed related to Aura. Were they studying it?

He soon left, hurrying back to the rendezvous point. Julian was already there, and Phil quickly tapped the code decided on earlier. Julian grabbed at the general area of Phil, and latched onto his arm. They teleported away, back to Denny.

Phil, Denny, Julian, and their Pokemon, all gazed over the documents Phil had collected. Grimacing at the details, they were in shock. How could they be so evil? They also wondered what was up with all the different uniforms.

"Denny, Julian, we need to take this place down."

"We will need help, Denny, you call,in a strike team. I'll help with cover up."

"Cover up?" Phil asked.

"Psychic types and Zoroark keeping the public away from danger," Denny responded.

"It also keeps is a secret. If we did not camouflage out operations, we would be found out quickly," Julian continued.

"Oh, so, my life is a lie."

"No, Phil, you're life is not a lie."

"Julian, Phil was joking."

Julian and Denny continued making plans, but Phil slipped out. He began walking through downtown, Blazer by his side. He soon came across several Team Domination goons.

"Come on, girly. You can come with us," one goon slurred.

"Yeah, we are gracious hosts," another said.

The girl, who looked about Phil's age whimpered, looking scared. She was severely outnumbered after all. He decided to intervene, remembering the horrid crimes they committed.

"Leave her alone!"

"What you gonna do about it?"

"Just hit the road, and leave this girl alone."

The half-drunk goon lumbered forward and swung at Phil. Only to find himself knocking over his fellow goons as Phil reversed his momentum. Phil then sped forward and knocked a couple goons down like dominoes. Starting to panic, the goons backed off, before going into a full on sprint.

"Are you okay?" Phil asked.

She shook her head, and Phil offered his hand to help her up, when a fist slammed into his gut.

"Get away from my girl!"

"Anakin, he was just trying to help."

"Was I speaking to you?"

"No......"

The new teen reared up to slap the girl when Phil snapped. He lunged forward and knocked the other boy backwards.

"Unless for self-defense, you do not hit a woman."

"You really want to fight?"

"No, but I will."

"You can not win."

"Sure...." Phil said, rolling his eyes.

The other teen, Anakin, lunged forward, but, using his Aura, Phil redirected his opponent into a wall. He then turned to to the girl.

"Here, let me help you up."

"But, I can not. He is...."

"No buts, he is trying to hurt. He is not a good boyfriend."

"He's not..."

"You are hurt, come on."

"You are not going anywhere."

"Boy, have you not learned your lesson."

Phil felt an Aura Sphere disappate off his coat. He turned, and no Pokemon was to be seen, but Anakin's jaw was hanging open.

"An Aura User? I guess that is why your punch actually hurt."

"You are an outsider that knows the art. That is not allowed."

"The name Denusho or Denny ring a bell?"

"So, you are Denny's apprentice, then you should stay out of my way."

"Not if it involves hurting people."

Phil then guided the girl to the Pokemon Center. Denny tried to tell him to send her back to Anakin, but Phil refused. After a while, the girl finally told her name, it was Racheal. Phil decided to invite her to travel with them. She agreed, as her only Pokemon was a female Kirlia named, Gardenia. However, she seemed nervous, as if she were breaking some rule. Phil dismissed it as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, from her horrid boyfriend.
