Umber's POV

 I sat down on my bed, sighing. I took out Silver's Pokeball with his Weavile in it, and released the Pokemon inside it. The ice type looked at me angrily, baring his fangs.

"Hey, chill. I'm on your side." I said, holding my hands up in defense. "I'm sorry for taking you from Silver so forcefully but it was kind of necessary; I need your help." Weavile calmed down a bit, but I could tell he was still tense and on edge. 

"At this point, you're helping if you want to or not anyways, so listen up," I said. "I put my Weavile with the other stolen Pokemon. From there, she's going to escape her Pokeball and make sure it's clear for us to get in. You're gonna go meet up with her and make sure all the Pokemon are ok, while I make a hopefully successful attempt to hijack the ship and hopefully land this thing without killing anyone." I pulled out Silver's Pokegear. "I took Silver's since I don't have anything to call them with, since I believe the police still has mine. Make sense?" Weavile stared at me, still looking unsure. "Fine, whatever, I'm calling Gold." I hit a few buttons, and then waited for Gold to pick up.

"Well look at that; the thief makes herself known. What kinda stunt was that back there? Silv's pissed as fuck!" Gold said.

"Shocker. What's going on currently? Not too many people hurt, right?" I asked.

"Hmm...? And why would you care? I heard you joined Team Plasma. Everyone's getting checked out at the PWT, and Silv went to go get some glasses from the Pokemon Center." The breeder informed me. "Nothing too serious minus the fact some trainers are Pokemon-less."

"And that's why Silver doesn't have his Pokegear or Weavile at the moment; I needed some help with my plan." I explained pretty much everything I said to Weavile to Gold.

"There's the Umber I know; sneakin' around and trickin' people. Alright, I'll make sure we're in Castelia soon."

"Thanks Gold..." Even though I was seemingly alone, I was interrupted. 

"Umber?" I froze.

"Umber? You still there?" I could hear Gold, but didn't say anything.

"Who are you talking to?" Shinimi appeared next to my door, looking at me with large, curious eyes. 

"Well..."

"One of your friends, I see. However, I know for a fact that you didn't get your Pokegear back from the police, and I know that was the redhead's Pokegear." He said, darkly. "Umber, what are you planning?"

"It's nothing; I'm on your side. You need rest; stop worrying." I said, putting the Pokegear aside. 

"Bullshit." He spat. "I heard everything. Didn't you forget who I was? What I can do?" His eyes were dark, and his tone turned cold. "What a shame; I thought you were pretty cool actually." The ninja smiled. But as soon as it came, it left. "Ghetsis won't be too happy about this." 

"Don't you fucking tell him!" I ran at him, only for him to vanish and reappear behind me, with a knife to my neck. 

"Maybe I should just kill you here and take your Pokemon to him; they'll be powerful enough without you."

"Come on, Shinimi...we''re friends; you wouldn't kill me, right?" I said, nervously laughing. 

"Were we? Or was it just an act?" He replied. "I'm sorry but we're enemies, and you know what happens to my enemies?" He pressed the cold knife harder against my skin. 

But with a breeze of freezing air, it was off and I was released.

"Wea!" Weavile blasted him with blizzard,  growling. Shinimi got back up, and took a Pokeball from his back pocket. 

"I didn't want to have to deal with pests but..." He released a Bisharp. "Bisharp, distract Weavile." The blade Pokemon launched itself at the ice type, and they both battled without commands. 

I went to grab another Pokeball off my belt, but I was stopped. The ninja grabbed my arm and pinned me against a wall. I used my other hand to grab one, only to have the same result.

"If you think we were gonna use a few Pokemon to decide if you live or not then you're wrong." Shinimi said. "I'm going to use the skills I know best to get rid of you."

"Yeah, ok, sure. We can do that." I said, smiling, before I kneed him in the...uh. 

His grip loosened and he tried oh so hard not to curl up on the floor, so I ripped my hands out of his grip and punched him in the face. Shinimi grabbed his face, which now had blood trailing down from his nose. 

"Don't forget you trained me in hand-to-hand fighting. Plus, I had some crazy DexHolders a few years ago teach me how to handle these kind of situations." I told him. He only glared at me before vanishing. 

Weavile and Bisharp were still battling, no clear outcome so far. I released Gallade and had him use Close Combat to make sure that thing was knocked out. 

"Umber?! Are you still there?!" I could hear Gold panicking. I picked up the Pokegear. 

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Although I might need to hurry up now that I've been discovered." I said. 

"Do you need backup? Where are you?" 

"Um...somewhere in the sky." I said, walking over to the window. I saw the desert land and Castelia City. "Around Castelia, heading north."

"Alright, backup will be there soon!" Gold said, before hanging up. I put the Pokegear back in my pocket. 

"We're gonna need to move, fast. I doubt Shinimi would keep quiet about this." I said to Weavile and Gallade. They nodded and followed me out the door.

Silver's POV

"Umber needs help." I heard Gold say, as I was standing in the bathroom looking at the contacts in the case. "So bye-bye! See ya later!" 

"Wait!" I called after him. 

"Hm? What is it? Did you wanna help her?" The breeder said, teasing me.

"No, I just want my stuff back." I told him. "So wait for me."

"Seriously? You've been in the bathroom for 20 minutes. First off; this is MY room, why don't you go back to your room, and second; what the hell are you even doing in there? Jacking off?"

"Shut up! I'm not going to my room, and what the fuck made you say that?!" I yelled, getting a little red to the face. At least he couldn't see it.

The door creaked as it was opened slightly, and Gold peeked in. "Ohhh! You got contacts? Did Umber get to you~?"

"No! I just don't want to lose my glasses again is all."

"You know Silv, there's a word for people like you."

"And what's that?" I said, finally deciding to put them in.

"Hm...what was it? Oh yeah, I remember; tsundere!"

I slammed the bathroom door in his face, screaming, "I am not!"  

"Ok, whatever you say, but hurry up; Umber was nearly murdered so--"

I got both contacts in and opened the door, grabbing my Pokemon. "Let's go." I said, walking out quickly. I heard Gold snickering behind me, but didn't tease me again. Thankfully.
