Bab 81: EPISODE 81: News*
After the meeting of our eyes, Sabrina was left with no choice but to alert my mother about me. With swiftness, she dashes through the crowd and into the orphanage wherein she saw Jenny and my mother talking to each other.
She then decides to interrupt, "Athena, your daughter is here."
"Luna Evergreen?!" Ecstasy suddenly fills her heart. Her body burst with relief, after knowing about my abrupt appearance. My mother reacted quickly and cloaks herself with her jacket.
"Headmaster, don't this." Jenny blocks the door and pleads to my mother.
"Let, me be the one to take care of her. I know she'll listen to me someday." Jenny adds.
"I'm sorry Jenny, it has been a long time since I've seen Luna. And I can't wait but to take a glimpse on her face." Mother utters with a sweet tone, trying to imagine how I would look like today.
"But, what if... what if, you get hurt or something. Sabrina is here, she can be the one to do it instead." Jenny said, persisting to block the doors of the orphanage.
"I'm afraid, that it is not my responsibility to look for Luna. After all, I've warned her from the very beginning. Still, I will be looking forward to making it my responsibility." Sabrina smiles, happily volunteering.
"See headmaster! She's willing to do it, now, please. Let me and her handle the rest." Jenny continues to beg.
"Jenny, don't worry about me. I will confront her, and that's it. The three of us will surely knock Team Rocket dead!" Mother continues to beam with determination, as if everything is just a child's play.
"Headmaster, please don't be stubborn. You've heard the news about her."
"Let's get this over with..." A voice from behind interrupts.
"We, the Master Five would like to help the three of you." Miriam volunteers with eagerness along with Magnus and the rest.
"I guess we have a large team now. Come on Jenny, let Athena come." Sabrina insists.
For a moment, Jenny remains silent, further thinking about the decision. She then nodded her head with force, finally agreeing to my mother's pleading.
"Leave the grunts to me, I'll burn them with my flare!" Magnus smiles with determination.
"Titus and I will be in charge of helping Trainer Red," Magnolia adds with the same confidence as Magnus.
"They say knowledge is the best weapon of all, I'll be in charge of saving the other employees." Miriam smiles, preparing herself for one feisty battle.
"Me and my Pokemons? We'll help Magnus." Leaning beside a pole, Finn debuts to the team. His confidence and determination are those of the other Masters.
"I guess that leaves me, Jenny, and Sabrina to our main goal. And that is, to find Luna Evergreen!" With a highly exuberant spirit despite the upcoming challenges, mother clenches her fist to the air while uttering with encouragement.
Meanwhile, Jenny isn't sure of her reactions. Whether to become excited and determined, or perhaps sad and worried is all up to the decision of her sanity.
"Natasha, please be in charge of the other orphans while we're gone." Mother instructs as she prepares her Pokemon belt.
"As you wish headmaster. Please take extra per cautionary measures. Team Rocket is a feisty organization." Natasha pauses her chore for a moment, which is to clean the countertops of the cashier. She then obeys the headmaster, at the same time, feeling nervous for her and the rest of the Master Five.
"Pfft, Team Rocket is nothing compared to us. After all, we are the Master Five." Magnus says with an arrogant expression and a cunning smile.
Without another moment to waste, the eight of them proceed to the Silph Co Facility which is located in the city's plaza. I knew this day would happen, that I would once again see my mother and the Master Five.
However, my hardest trial is not dealing with the trainer, it is dealing with the eight of them. My only hope now is to keep minimal eye contact with all of them. Never did I expect, this would become one of my hardest trial in life.
Aggression or Affection? A hard choice, leading to a fork in a road.
