***Hala on Route 2***

Hala knocks on the front door of Guzma's childhood home. A cheerful woman answers and greets him. She offers him to come sit inside. Its Guzma's lovely mother.

(GM= Guzma's Mom)
(GD= Guzma's Dad)

GM: "Would you like anything to drink, Kahuna?"
KH: "No thank you. I'm sorry about visiting at such late hours. Is your husband home by any chance?"

Before she could answer, the front door started to jiggle and then turn. Guzma's Dad walked inside, startled by the sight of a visitor. He aggressively huffs and sets the grocery bags in the kitchen.

GM: "Uh dear? Kahuna Hala is here again. Why don't you come say alola?" She said timidly.

He rolls his eyes from the kitchen, but comes to sit on one of the vacant couches. He doesn't say anything to Hala, but instead resorts to a waving gesture.

KH: "I know earlier today we had talked about you're concerns for your boy, Guzma. You two asked me to let you know if anything about him came up?"
GM: "Yes, sir. Is he alright? Is he safe?" She panicked.
GD: "What has he done now?" He sounded annoyed.
KH: "He is safe as far as I know. However, recent stories have me concerned. A new student of mine has told me stories of his recent, violent outbursts."

Guzma's mom looks at her husband in a worried manor. Guzma's dad remains staring at Hala, wishing Hala would just get on with it.

GM: "Um yes. This doesn't really surprise me." She sighs. "You see, Guzma was showing slight signs of aggression right before he disappeared. The day he left, he-"
GD: "Little shit punched me square in the jaw."
KH: "I see, so it's only gotten worse then. I can't figure out the reason behind this behavior. When he was a pupil of mine, he never acted so aggressively. Yes, he was stubborn to say the least, but he wouldn't so much as hurt a Cutiefly."
GD: *huffs*
GM: "I remember the day he started acting out. I thought he was just hormonal and acting like a typical teenage boy."
KH: "Do you remember what he was doing that day?"
GM: "Yes, he told me he was going to visit the lovely Aether Foundation. He...he hasn't been the same ever since he left that place."
KH: "Hmm. Ok. I will find out more on this."
GD: "I don't think the Aether Foundation has anything to do with Guzma's bad attitude!" He yells angrily. "I mean listen to yourselves! Guzma has always been a shit child and an even shittier teenager! It's no surprise that he's also a shit adult too!" He begins to yells at his wife, "I can't believe you brought the island Kahuna into this mess. I'm sure he has better things to do than to spy on our worthless son!"
KH: "I'm worried about Guzma, you should be too. This is not normal behavior for any child, teen, or adult."
GD: "Well, if you want to waste your time on our son, then go for it. As for me, leave me out of it. I'm done wasting my time on him."

Guzma's dad gets up and walks to the back bedroom. Hala sighs deeply and starts to stand from the couch. He knows what kind of hot-head Guzma's dad is and expects nothing more from his actions. Guzma, however, never wanted to be like his dad. So why is he acting the way he is towards you, Val, and basically anyone that gets in his way?

GM: "I'm so sorry, Kahuna. Of course I care about my boy, please keep me updated. I know my husband cares too, he's just...disappointed I guess."
KH: "Of course. Goodnight."

Hala leaves and heads back to the dojo.

***Kukui's Lab***

Guzma, Gander, and Val are approaching Kukui's lab. Guzma is certain that you're still there.

Gander: "So, what's the plan, G-man."
Guzma: "Simple: we are gonna fuck shit up."
Val: "What if she's not here..."
Guzma: "Shut it, Grunt! You're here to watch, not help! Know your place."
Val: "Y-yes. Boss."

Guzma kicked the door down and motioned for Val and Gander to enter first. Guzma casually entered and observed the dark laboratory. The only lights came from the various equipment and the large, water Pokémon tank.

Gander searched the lab. He didn't find any sign of anyone on either floor of the lab. Gander looked at his boss in a worried manor.

Guzma: "Don't give me that look. Tell me she's here somewhere!"
Gander: "I-I don't see her, Boss. I don't see Kukui either..."

Guzma's rage hit its limit. He started punching and slamming his fists down on anything that was near him. Multiple pieces of lab equipment were destroyed, causing the lab to become almost pitch black.

Although you and Kukui weren't at the lab, someone still was; Lillie. She woke up to the sound of lab equipment being destroyed. She wasn't worried at first, because she knew Kukui liked to try out Pokémon moves inside the lab. She casually climbed down the latter of her loft. She stood at the bottom and rubbed her tires eyes.

Lillie: "Professor?"

Guzma, Gander, and Val froze and looked in Lillie's direction. Guzma plastered that shit-eating grin on his face and approached Lillie. It was too dark for Lillie to see anything but white hair. However, Guzma knew exactly who the little girl in front of him was. It was his boss's missing daughter.

Guzma: "Well. Well. Well. Now isn't this a surprise?"
Lillie jumped and responded, "Y-You're not the P-Professor!" She said in a scared tone.
Guzma: "Y-You're absolutely right, doll." He mimicked.
Lillie gulped nervously.
Guzma: "We originally came for someone else, but you'll just have to do. Gander, grab 'er!"

Gander quickly ran over to grab the small girl. Lillie struggled slightly, but she was way to fragile and weak.

Guzma: "Val, make yourself useful and grab the bag with the Pokémon in it up there!"
Val: "Thought I was here to watch." She mumbled as she climbed the loft latter. Guzma didn't hear her.

Guzma: "Wish I could see the look on Kukui's face when he sees his precious lab destroyed and his lil' assistant missing. Bastard."
