On the way to find the traces of Team Rocket, The gym was mandatorily closed for a while. Unless the guests wake up and wait for us. But I'm pretty sure they won't because of the effect of that sleeping gas. Most probably 3-6 hours asleep. And no one can wake them up.

The city's quiet and peaceful. It's already around 1 am so maybe the reason why it's so serene because everyone in asleep.

Team rocket planned it out perfectly. The traces... It was rather obscure... They cleaned all the evidence and we haven't got the chance to find any traces.

But we never give up... Of course.

"It's... Investigating time!"I twirled around, transforming to this certain white investigating coat and my signature Investigating cap.

I look inadequately fancy, and rather funny.

It was embarrassing.

"Though team rocket may have cleaned their traces perfectly. I don't think they have cleaned it enough."I thought,"As far as I know. Team rocket still lacks somewhat... Consistency?"

"Consistency in what?"Chili asked with a slight disapproval in his tone.

"Consistency in fulfilling their mission perfectly! The right recipe for completing a five star cuisine"I utter with a pinch of sweetness.

"So how would you rate their, incredible plan?"Cress asked as he shrugged and turned to Chili and (Y/N).

"Simple. 4 stars. 4 because I see that they have done it almost perfectly but not quite."I pointed at the ground. A torn up piece of paper scattered on the ground.

"What was that?!"(Y/N) asked in an indistinguishable tone. It has a pinch of dialect added to it. But I'm not rather sure what kind...

I picked up the torn piece of paper, just to find out that it was a list of schemes that they have done recently."bingo!"

"Aren't we gonna turn this on to officer Jenny?"Cress asked, seemingly unsure and worried.

"That is not necessary"I muttered with a slight grin on my face.

"Why not?"He replied. He's sort of the I want answer to everything! Guy and What is the reason for your answer? Sometimes it's annoying. But I understand his way of doing so. He's just rather curious.

And sometimes curious kills the cat.

"If officer Jenny finds out. It would cause a ruckus. Everyone would panic and rather than be alarmed and calm, they would run around the city streets and cause CHAOS and CONFUSION to the city!"I explained. Placing my palm on my forehead and shaking my head in sign of annoyance.

"Okay okay. I get it."Cress said in a rather poetic voice than angry.

"Shouldn't we go on and stop fighting? This is giving the team rocket more time to think of their plan to Victini and Pikachu!"(Y/N) shouted. There goes the dialect again.

"(Y/N) is right. Stop fighting!"It is very unusual of Chili to ask us to stop fighting because this is what he always wanna see. Most probably because it's an emergency. He doesn't have time to think about it...

Understandable.

I took a deep breath and smiled at Cress,"Sorry." I said.

"Sorry too.."Cress avoided my glances and looked down,"Let's head on"

We continued walking down the dark and serene road. It was eerie and was giving me the chills. But hey, this is Striaton City! Ghosts doesn't exist. And if ever there's a certain paranormal activity. Science could explain it in a bit!

I smirked at the thought as Cress, Chili and (Y/N) looked at me weirdly. I cleared my throat and glance at them every now and then. This is making them.. And I myself uncomfortable. What am I even thinking?

As we headed on to the end of the line, we reached an Underground Subway. It was very unusual to the fact that I didn't even know that there's an underground subway in Striaton City... I've been living here for 16 years and I didn't know about this?

The underground subway looks abandoned and it gives me the chills just thinking about it. Urgh...

I glanced at (Y/N) who seems rather calm and serious. She seems to not care about the surroundings and focus on her mission to save Victini and Pikachu from danger.

Chili on the other hand was trembling in fear. He actually has this phobia of the dark. Back when we were kids, the lampshade was always open and it's actually blinding Cress and I. But after Chili fell on a deep sleep, we turned the lampshade off and sleep peacefully without seeing any red pigment when our eyes are closed.

While Cress over there seems rather happy with the darkness. Cress likes the dark because he think its peaceful and can help you focus and think better. Well for me, I think not! It is a bizarre thought!

"Stop!"I shouted, breaking the silence. The group stops as I scan my eyes for intruders of some sort. You know, burglars, kidnappers.. Yeah criminals.

"What is it? Let's continue!"Chili muttered with a slight annoyance in his tone.

I closed my eyes and tried to focus... All I can hear is the deafening sound of silence... I can hear Cress and Chili's breathing and I can hear (Y/N) searching her bag...

But there was this unusual sound that I cannot distinguish who or what is making those sounds... It's giving me the creeps. It sounds like whispering voices... Whispering voices that I cannot understand what it states...

I sighed and look back at the group... But they were gone.

"C..Chili?! Cress?!.. (Y/N)?!"I shouted, panicking. My voice echoes, my heart beats faster than normal, and I felt butterflies in my stomach...

I started to scan the place once again... But there are no signs on whoever took my brothers and (Y/N)... I only closed my eyes for a second and by the moment I opened it, they were gone.

But the first thing I felt the moment I opened my eyes was that, I feel like i'm in a different place. A different axis. A different universe. The atmosphere was different, and the texture of the breeze was rather obscure.

I closed my eyes once again, thinking about how I got there...

First, I tried analyzing what I'm hearing.. And second, I opened my eyes knowing I'm here..

I then closed my eyes and analyzed the sounds in my surrounding...

I then started to hear breathing... Breathing... Then...

Shouting.

"Cilan! Snap out of it!"Cress was shaking me vigorously as I snap my eyes open.

"Cilan what happened?!"Chili asked, worried. What happened?

I then started to form the scenarios in my mind and said,"I think I just saw myself in another dimension."

"Another dimension?"(Y/N) asked. She seems like she's interested. If so, maybe i'll explain to them.

"Pfft! That's crazy! We saw you like zoning out for 5 minutes"Cress uttered with a laugh.

"No, serious. I was actually analyzing the sounds in the subway, until I started to hear voices that I cannot understand what it says... And the moment I opened my eyes I thought you guys were taken away." I sighed.

The group then stared at me. I think they started to get much more interested.

"But here's the twist. The atmosphere was different. The smell, the taste of dews that drop on my lips, and the breeze. It was all different from the atmosphere of this world."I explained, looking straight at them.

"If that's the case, why did you end up going in that certain dimension?"Cress asked, folding his arms.

"That I could not say."I mumbled,"Let's head on."

We continued walking down the rails of this seemingly abandoned subway and find more traces of team rocket.
