Chapter 79 - Shadow Legion
Inside the huge room, the three members of the Elite four watched the whole battle and all of them were silent.
Lance "It\'s going to be hard for us to get a victory over him, not only is his Snorlax but his other pokemons are also stronger"
Agatha "Indeed, it looks like there will be a new Champion soon"
Bruno "Shit, I have to battle him next, I have to start training"
Bruno gets up and dashes away leaving behind Lance and Agatha.
Agatha "You should also train harder and try too"
Agatha also gets up and walks away slowly, Lance stays behind and looks at Julian on the screen.
Lance "Julian..... My greatest opponent, I am waiting"
Lance also leaves the room as well leaving the room empty, after some time a worker enters the room to collect the plates on the table as he does that he bends down and detach a voice recorder under the table and puts it in his pocket and leaves silently.
Somewhere in the Hoenn region inside a thick forest filled with trees everywhere, a man could be seen walking wearing a brown uniform with an \'L\' written on it, he walks for a while and comes near a rock and places his hand upon it, soon a bright light glows and a small square hole appears on it then a number pad emerges from the whole, the man enters a passcode and soon the ground near the rock slowly rises up revealing a staircase. The man quickly goes inside as the rock and the ground turn back to their original state.
The man enters an elevator which takes him downwards when the elevator door opens he steps out and enters a long hallway, there are some mechanical doors on the side of the hallway as few people wearing the same uniform as this man could be seen entering and exiting through these doors.
The man walks forward and enters a room which is at the left end of the hallway, as soon as he enters the people present in the room look at him, a man with black hair looks at him and asks a question.
"What is the purpose of your visit? Marcus"
Marcus "The Agent from Kanto has sent a voice file, he didn\'t want the IP of this place to be found so he sent it to the side branch"
The man with black hair nodded and signaled Marcus to follow him, soon Marcus was taken to a secret passage which leads to a room, right in front of the door a woman with red hair wearing a brown uniform waiting, when Marcus looked at her with his eyes filled with lust.
Marcus "Chloe I didn\'t expect to see you today, care to join for a drink tonight?"
Chloe looked at Marcus with a disgusted expression
Chloe "Disgusting pig"
Chloe completely ignored Marcus and turned around.
Marcus "Y...You?" Marcus was really pissed hearing Chloe, he had tried to court her before but she always rejected him, once he even tried to **** her but he got his ribs completely fractured by her. From then onwards Marcus didn\'t see her at all until today.
Marcus \'Just you wait, I will make you my bitch one day\'
The man standing next to Marcus shook his head in disappointment after seeing Marcus acting like this, Marcus was a disgrace but he received backing from one of the leaders, so he acted high and mighty.
Soon the door opened and a lady wearing glasses and black coat walked out with files in her hand, "Chloe, Marcus both of you can enter" she said and walked away with the man with black hair, Chloe and Marcus entered the room and saw a man, he had brown hair and a deep scar running down his face, sitting on his chair as he played with a Mega Stone in his hand.
"Chloe you did great, with all the data you have brought, we will definitely succeed but it will take time"
Chloe just stays silent and nods her head, the man then looks at Marcus.
"What is your purpose to come here?"
Marcus "Boss the agent we sent to spy on the elite four of Kanto has sent an audio file"
The Man looked at Marcus for a second then continued.
"What does it say?"
Marcus "I have not heard it"
"Play it right now"
Marcus takes out an audio player and plays the audio, Chloe, Marcus and the Man hear Bruno, Agatha, and Lance talking about Julian.
After hearing the full clip the man in the chair clinches his hand.
"This cannot happen, Kanto should not have a champion until the Jhoto League finishes or our plan will be doomed, if this guy named Julian is as strong as they have described it will be a lot of trouble, we cannot allow another champion to join the league committee, the league has already noticed our presence. If this Julian becomes a champion the League will gain another powerhouse and will definitely raid us, we have to stop him right now"
Chloe who heard this was shaken from inside, she thought about a certain person she met in Kanto and promised him that she will come back to him, now hearing this person called Julian going to be a champion she prayed that this person was not the one she met.
Chloe \'Julian I hope this is not you, please wait for me a little longer I will come to you as soon as possible\'
Even though Chloe was shaken from the inside she didn\'t show her emotions on her face.
The Man on the chair banged his desk in anger
"You may leave" he yelled.
Marcus, seeing that his boss was angry quickly ran away, Chloe stayed behind and looked at her boss, The Man looked at her and frowned
"Why are you not leaving?"
Chloe "Boss, I want to quit"
The Man frowned after listening to her
"Why?"
Chloe "As per rules of our organization, if a person completes a certain number of missions he/she is allowed to leave the organization. I have already completed the required amount so I want to quit"
"Why don\'t you continue I will promote you into a higher position"
Chloe "Boss, I want to live a normal life"
The man\'s frown got deeper
"Do you know that you have to follow some rules after quitting"
Chloe "Yes, I cannot reveal any information about our organization to anyone, or only death awaits me"
"I see, you already know what will happen, Ok I accept your resignation but first you have to complete a crucial mission. Only after completing will you be allowed to leave, if you try to escape I will send people to kill you"
Chloe grits her teeth hearing his response.
Chloe "But?"
"No buts, you only have two options, one is to complete this mission, second is to die or continue working for me"
Chloe is now in a dilemma, but she finally makes a decision.
Chloe "Ok, I accept the mission"
"Good, you can go now, the details of this mission will be sent to you"
Chloe walks away leaving the man behind when the door closes he claps his hand and suddenly a man in a black dress appears in front of him, this man is his personal bodyguard and does all his dirty works.
"Go to Kanto and kill this guy named Julian"
"Yes sir"
The man in black quickly disappears from his sight, The Man sitting on the chair looks at the Mega Stone in his hand as thoughts run through his mind.
"I won\'t let a single person ruin my Shadow Legion".
Chloe walks towards her office only to find Marcus there.
Marcus "Come on Chloe, I was just joking that day how about I take you out for a dinner as an apology"
Chloe is not in a good mood right now and seeing Marcus made her angrier.
Chloe "Listen, you disgusting pig, if you ever talk to me again I will rip your tongue out of your mouth"
Marcus suddenly felt his throat going dry and quickly runs away leaving behind Chloe, she looks towards the direction of Kanto.
Chloe \'Julian I hope you are doing fine\'.
