Back here again. Minus the brownies this time, as hilarious as that would be. No, Killian had business today. The kind that required him to have a clear head. More deals with devil's that he'd regret later.

Lulu's doing...whatever it is she does when not strangling people in hospital rooms. Hands in his pockets, Killian sighs as he approaches.

"Lulu, how's it going? Still not sleeping?"

Lulu looked up from a clipboard.

“Hm?”

Killian.

“Decker.”

She blinked at him a little slowly. Was he being a smartass? She wasn’t sure.

“No. Still not sleeping.”

She looked back to her work, turning halfway and suddenly drumming a pen on the side of her leg, antsy.

“It’s going fine. What about yourself?”

"Stop that." he frowned, right hand waving dismissively in the air. "Killian." would it kill these people to refer to someone by their first name? Killian shrugged. "Probably."

"Sorry to hear that, though."

He doubted she'd believe him.

"I'm...in a bit of a pickle." Killian's broad arms crossed over his chest. The slight hint of uncomfortable tension tugged at his bottom lip.

"I could use your help."

Something in her face pinched. She shrugged.

A bit of a pickle. In such an organization, there were rather large pickles to get into and she didn’t quite like fucking with most of them.

Crossing an empty arm across her ribs, she shifted again to face him.

Did she have to ask?

“With what?”

It wasn't too late to change his mind. Rocket had other scientists, and Natalie already agreed to help.

"No." a voice not his own whispered. "Use her."

"What do you know about aliens?"

“What?”

Never in a million years would she have guessed he’d ask her about this.

She eyed him carefully, almost narrowly. Why would he think that? Lulu had given no one any reason (except ) to believe she had any goals related to aliens.

Killian worked in intel. Was he spying on her?

“What do you mean, like Megalopolans?”

It's hard not to notice the way she's looking at him. Like he'd struck a nerve, but Killian's not sure when. Nothing to do but shrug it off. Chalk it up as Lulu being Lulu and move on.

"No." he breathed a hefty sigh and stepped closer. Arms crossed over his chest as he leaned back against a nearby desk. Why the hell was he being coy? He pursed his lips, teeth sinking against the inside of his cheek.

"I'm talking the kind that come from space, not another dimension."

Another risk, another gamble that knotted Killian's stomach and pistoned stress into his shoulder blades.

Lulu was the enemy. "She's smart, useful - resourceful."

It's still not too late to turn back. Killian had yet to make the offer, to say the name on the tip of his tongue. "Natalie won't be enough."

He frowned. "You need her."

And if she slit his throat from the shadows, then what? Silence

"Does the name Deoxys mean anything to you?"

The name definitely rang a bell—and an alarm. With her suspicions risen further, she decided to give him her time. Whether he somehow knew about her work on the side, or if he had valuable information himself purely by coincidence; either way, this would be interesting.

“Yes, of course. It flew out of Mossdeep some time ago. Why? What about it?”

"I want it." he stated plainly.

"I've been looking for it since I became admin."

He paused letting silence fill the air and his thoughts gather.

"And I have something that might help locate it."

Her careful expression faltered. Brows raised high on her head a moment, hinting that such a mission was very unexpected.

“Well. That… sounds like an interesting development.”

She thought a moment.

“Do you have time to come to my office? We should discuss this there, for now.”

She walked ahead of him, heels clicking on the hard floor with purpose. Clipboard rattled a little with each step. Soon, they were at the proper door.

“I’ll warn you, if you haven’t heard already: Djall’s been 'touched' by Darkrai and he’s not been quite right since. Don’t be offended if he growls at you. It's everybody.”

That said, the Klefki in her pocket unlocked the fairy energy surrounding the room, and within, as expected, Djall sat in her chair at the desk, muzzled and drooling.

“Djall.” Lulu sighed. “Off the chair.”

There was a whine, and the click of nails, and then as he rounded the desk, he greeted Killian with a demonic growl from the center of a dark chest with all intent to rip limb from limb.

“Tch—stop, shh.”

It lessened, and he went with her, back behind where she sat and gestured to the empty seat across from her.

Last time they’d been here, it had been under circumstances she could only hope he wouldn’t mention.

"Yeah, you mentioned that when we were hunting for Pokemon."

Apparently, she still hadn't figured out how to solve the issue. When Killian became an Avatar, is this what he had to look forward to? An inability to control the legend he'd bonded with.

"When? How confident of you."

He frowned.

"I'll be fine. Loveless is adept at dealing with dark types." weakness be damned. From his shoulder, Espeon purred. Her tail flicked as the door opened, and the muzzled Houndoom greeted them.

The crystal on Loveless's forehead glowed faintly. Espeon would do anything to protect her trainer. She'd proven that by staring down the Lord of Nightmares himself. A dog muzzled and drooling is hardly a threat. Still, she hissed, fur on her back standing on end.

"Calm." the feline obeyed, relaxing but kept her eyes on Djall.

Killian doesn't take the offered seat. He remained standing, leaning against the back nonchalantly. The last time Killian sat in that chair, his life changed. A week of nightmares. That months later still haunted him. A voice in the back of his mind. Dark whispers in his ear, tempting him - encouraging the darkness in his soul.

"Tell me, have you read the news recently? Or heard about the theft at Mossdeep Space Center?"

Djall paid no mind to Loveless, as he was already behind the desk, caged head down towards the floor near Lulu’s heeled foot.

“Yes. A meteorite shard was stolen from the formation where Deoxys was spotted leaving during the war. I’m aware.”

Lulu noted his discomfort with the chair, but chose not to mention it. She could guess.

“But what about it? You have new information?”

"You could say that."

He chuckled and took his hands off the chair, posture straightening.

"I was the one who stole it." with 's help, of course. But Lulu doesn't need to know that.
