Very Important Meeting Thing!

[Lugiasian]

Once the two entered the Professor's lab again, Yuni began calling everyone to meet them there. Then, she tidied up so that the place wouldn't look like such a pigsty when they did. Yuni looked at Maple, who still had tears in her eyes, and sighed.

"You're 28, you're not dead yet."

"28 is pretty old." Maple sat down at her desk and slumped behind her folded arms, pushing away paperwork and pencils.

"Oh my god, Maple, you won't let this go, will you?" Yuni stared at Maple's autumn leaf red hair for an answer.

The hair shook back and forth, indicating a 'no'. Yuni sighed deeply, and added, "The meeting starts when everyone gets here. Better not let them see you like this."

Hydro climbed off Tropius and ran into the lab. "Professor, Yuni! What's all this about!?"

[Prof. Cinders]

Flipping lightly off the tropius, Rachel landed on her feet, arms outstretched. 'We were rather busy, y'know,' she said calmly, slipping the box into her pocket. 'What exactly are we doing here?'

Yuni looked at the two people here. "You tell the Mercury sisters yet?" She stared at the clock and noticed it was late. Yuni sighed hopelessly. "Forget it. We'll start without them." Yuni took out a sheet of paper, a pencil, and went into Maple's desk to get a light green folder.

She looked at Maple one more time and poked her to make sure she was alive. There was some sniveling, but other than that there was no response. "Guess I'll have to conduct the meeting." Yuni sighed heavily again, and laid out the folder's contents on a table nearby. Summoning everyone near, Yuni picked up a few photos, some blurred, some clear.

"These are some photos that were taken by our surveillance Kecleon around Valtramia City. As you can see, there's some obvious criminal activity around the wooded parts and the shoreline." Yuni pointed to a picture taken of a woman in a skimpy 2-piece bikini lazily covered up by a labcoat. She seemed to be dumping toxic waste into the waters around Valtramia. Another picture showed a short-haired woman with glasses cutting down several trees with her saber.

"Any of you seen either of these two?" Yuni inquired.

[PMJ]

"No, but that toxic waste stuff looks like what Jake was doing at Multi City..." replied Hydro. "Any more evidence?"

"We're here!!" Liz said running into the lab.
"Sorry we're late!" Ami said tripping over a table leg which caused Liz to burst into hysterics. Ami frowned and carried on with her sentence, "So what's going on we didn't get much info on what's happening?"
"Yeah, I heard something about toxic?" Liz said, she and Ami grabbed chairs and sat down with the rest of the group, "Okay give us the insight."

[Prof. Cinders]

Ignoring the twins, Rachel put in her own piece of input. 'I've only seen one of them myself, but I thought it was nothing. I was borrowing Prof. Cinders' Charizard for a small transfer of materials, and I flew over Valtramia. I just saw her sunbathing, that's all,' she stated, poking the picture of the toxic waste being dumped. 'Other than that, I know nothing. All the water pokemon that Cinders got from travelling trainers seem perfectly healthy, but we haven't got any recent catches, for... obvious reasons.' Rachel smirked, as she thought of the lack of KI trainers in the region.

"Well if you're going to ignore us Rach then how are we supposed to help!" Liz said, outraged at the lack of explanation.

"We need to know what's going on before we can say or do anything." Ami said, equally angry about the way Rachel had ignored their questions.
