Sage took a deep breath as she looked at Silph Co as she knew that once enters inside things will get ugly fast and while she was confident in her Pokemon battling abilities, she knew there was absolutely no way she was going to take on all the Team Rocket members inside Silph Co.
I need a disguise" Sage thought as she scanned the area and her eyes landed on a female grunt who had been knocked unconscious by Pidgeot's Air Slash.
The woman was lying on the ground besides a bush as Sage's mind worked quickly as she dragged the grunt's body behind the cover of the foliage.
Sage heart pounded in her chest but she stayed focused as the disguise was risky but it was the best option to get inside without being caught.
After making sure the coast was clear, Sage swiftly stripped off her own clothes and changed into the Team Rocket uniform.
The black outfit was complete with the red "R" on the chest and as she adjusted the cap to cover her hair she glanced down at the unconscious grunt who was now only in Black Bra and black short shorts.
This disguise is perfect" Sage said as she looked at herself and even though she hated the idea of dressing as a Team Rocket member, she knew she had no choice.
With a deep breath, Sage emerged from behind the bush as the world around her seemed to go silent as she hesitated for a moment.
This was a gamble as she couldn't afford to make any mistakes while infiltrating Silph Co as Sage gathered her resolve as she had a job to do and she couldn't let anything stop her now.
Sage entered the building as she walked confidently as her footsteps echoed softly in the hallway as the tension in the building was extremely high but she kept a straight face as she pretended to be just another grunt on the job.
As she moved deeper into the building, Sage noticed a group of grunts lined up in front of a man with striking purple hair as he stood tall and exuded an air of authority that made the grunts around him stand a little straighter.

He wore the unmistakable black and red uniform of Team Rocket and there was no mistaking his importance.
One of the grunts noticed Sage approaching and motioned for her to join the line as Sage didn't hesitate as she stepped forward with her pulse quickening as she joined the others as she was trying her best to look natural in the unfamiliar role.
Boss Petrel," one of the grunts spoke up as he address the purple-haired man.
May I ask why you've called us here?" The grunt asked.
Petrel's sharp eyes scanned the room as his lips curled into a thin smile. "
Four brats have entered Saffron City" Petrel said coolly as everyone flinched at his tone.
One is currently in the building and the other two are battling the grunts outside and one is on their way here" Petrel said.
Sage's heart skipped a beat as she clenched her fists at her sides as she was struggling to keep her composure as she was one of those "brats" Petrel was referring to.
Petrel continued with voice cold and calculating.
Now, I must go and stop the brat who is causing a disaster upstairs and as for the rest of you, take your posts and make sure no more intruders make it inside" Petrel said with a snarl.
Sage felt a chill run down her spine at Petrel's words. The "brat" causing chaos upstairs must have been Red.
She had to find him before it was too late but she also had to be careful since any mistakes could result in all the Team Rocket members figuring who she was.
The grunts around Sage shifted as they werw preparing to take their positions as Sage did her best to stay in line.
Her mind raced as she processed the information she had just overheard as she knew Blue and Leaf was outside but she wondered how Red entered Saffron city, did he find another weak spot in the barrier?
But Sage couldn't let herself get distracted as she had to focus on finding Red and putting an end to Team Rocket's plans.
She took a deep breath with her eyes narrowing as she looked around as the building was vast and the hallway seemed to stretch endlessly in front of her.
I'll find you, Red," Sage whispered under her breath as she was determined to locate her friend and stop whatever chaos was unfolding inside.
As Petrel walked off, the remaining grunts began to disperse with each of them heading to their posts.
Let the games begin" Sage thought as she began moving towards the stairs.
