Lumiose City, Kalos: The City of Love. Or, so, they want you to think. Against the beautiful, sparkling lights, is the ever-creeping shadow of crime as it seeps through the city. From petty theft, to fraud, to murder, the city had it's fair share of criminal activity. [break][break]

Lyra Gale grew up in Lumiose, and always knew how to get herself in trouble. Her family was known for raising Flying-Type Pokemon, often for carrying deliveries, mail, and the like. Despite being fairly well-off, Lyra was a pick-pocket, and got a massive thrill out of petty theft. When she was twelve, an officer brought her home in handcuffs after she attempted to snag a few Ultra-Balls off the shelves. Discipline or not, nothing seemed to get through to her-- Lyra got a kick from stealing. Eventually, it all caught up to her-- She was sixteen when her parents kicked her out, and the young girl moved in with an enabling friend. [break][break]

One fateful day, she Pick-Pocketed the wrong guy. She was so close to swiping his watch from his hand after bumping into him-- an Intentional act that always caught unsuspecting tourists off guard. What she didn't expect was a chase. He quietly followed her, so much so that she initially didn't notice... When she turned the wrong corner, however, he caught her off guard and informed her he seemed to be missing his watch, but he noticed she was missing something herself... Her Trainer ID. The two had a flirtatious exchange before agreeing to meet that night for dinner. Lyra had never been more thrilled in her life. [break][break]

The mysterious man swept her off her feet with his charms, and Lyra was smitten. Their romantic encounter was like a whirlwind, as they challenged each other and their Pokemon to a variety of schemes. They filled their pockets with money and jewelry working together, and within a week Lyra had made more money than she ever had in her life. However, at the end of the week, to Lyra's dismay, he informed her that he would Be returning to Hoenn the following day. Lyra begged him to consider staying a bit longer, but the charming man declined, saying he had important things to do back home. Eventually, however, he gave into her protests, and offered an alternative... [break][break]

"Lyra... Come with me, back to Hoenn! I can get you work the moment we arrive-- The sort that people like us are made for! We'll never have to be apart!" [break][break]

The young woman practically lept into his arms, agreeing to join him. He made her pay for her ticket on the ship back, and hurried her along to join Team Rocket. For a while, her lover informed her he wouldn't see her-- Stating he would be busy with some jobs for her first few weeks. During this time, Lyra proved she had the dedication to become a Rocket Grunt; Working hard alongside her three Pokemon she'd brought from Kalos, Silver, her Noctowl, Truffle, her Pumpkaboo, and Sherman, her Sableye. [break][break]

Hoenn was everything she could have hoped for... Sort of. Being a part of Team Rocket felt a bit more high-stress than she'd expected. Still, she happily awaited the day she'd be able to see the man that brought her here again, knowing that the moment she saw him, everything would fall back into place. [break][break]

... Or, she'd find him making out with another grunt. [break][break]

Lyra was enraged. Not only did this man convince her to leave everything behind for him, but she felt stupid for the first time in her life. Embarassed and horrified, she intended to return home as soon as she could, but was reminded that now, she had a debt to Team Rocket. They had welcomed her in with open arms, fed her, gave her room and board... it was only right she re-paid them for their generosity. Disgusted with her position, missing her freedom, Lyra became depressed for a short while... but it was quickly replaced once more by her rage. [break][break]

Lyra swore an oath that she would never trust someone so blindly again, and to get back at the man who wronged her, she vowed to rise the ranks of Team Rocket until she was feared by those beneath her. She's certainly got her work cut out for her...
