"Hmm...Impressive, huh Espeon?" inquired Sylveon to her brother.
"Indeed. And they're on to us. All according to plan." Espeon responded.
The two mysterious Pokemon watch the team of Chimchar, Froakie, Riolu, Treeko, and Ralts as they walk along the city sidewalk to the restaurant through the lens of a stealth drone. The drone scans each of the young Pokemon for data: education, IQ, personality, physical assessment, vitality, criminal records, etc.
"They're all very talented and well organized for a rag tag mercenary band. We could add to their skill exponential amounts of experience and training." said Espeon.
"Just promise to go easy on them, Espy. They're still kids." replied Sylveon.
"They aren't kids. They're young adults. They've developed a grip on responsibility. Only then would they receive such daunting tasks as being hired to do away with incriminating files at a secret government facility. They are not ordinary 'kids'." offered Espeon in his rebuttal.
"He'll go easy on them. He's a softy compared to me. He may even have you beat, Sylvy. Me on the other hand...I'll give them loads of tough love" said a voice from the shadows.
"What have I told you about sneaking around in the dark, you shifty frog?" said Sylveon to the voice.
"One of these days, you'll regret calling me a frog" said a menacing Toxicroak stepping out of the shadows.
"And one of these days, you'll wish you took heed of what I said, Frog." Sylveon taunted.
"What don't have time for this..." Espeon groaned.
Toxicroak and Sylveon circle each other in the spacious room, away from the drone monitors. They prepare to attack each other without relent, waiting for the perfect opportunity.
"I'm prepared to kill you if you provoke me, Toxicroak" said Sylveon as her paws began to glow, readying herself to use Dig.
"I'm better equipped. I'll tear you into the ribbons you love so much, sweet little Sylvy" replied Toxicroak. His sharp talon gave off an ominous, purple glow, signaling a Poison Jab.
"They really want me to jump in and mediate this...so time consuming..." Espeon grunted to himself "Fine."
"That won't be necessary. Nobody's fighting anyone."
Seismitoad, Poliwrath, and Politoed walk through the doorway.
"Stand down, Toxicroak. Now" demanded Seismitoad.
