Rocket Recruitment (Act I)

August 2022
[break][break]

Mei set the bowl of freshly chopped salad down on the kitchen table next to a ceramic serving bowl filled with a tangy Kalosian balsamic vinaigrette and a much larger casserole dish nearly overflowing with a steaming baked ziti. Mei wouldn’t necessarily call herself a gourmet chef, but she prided herself on being able to cook decently well. It was one of the traits she had listed about herself when she’d been looking for a roommate: Happy to do most of the cooking! And it won’t even be half bad.[break][break]
It certainly made her a good fit for , who seemed to enjoy having meals served to her on a regular basis. It wasn’t that the other woman wasn’t able to feed herself, but it was clear she was accustomed to - and even preferred - having such daily labors accomplished for her. It amused Mei, the way Yumi carried herself like some kind of royal princess, despite needing a roommate in order to live in one of the smaller apartment complexes in Slateport’s Upper District. Mei wasn’t one to pry, but lately she had grown more curious about Yumi’s circumstances - and more specifically, where exactly she came from and who she’d left behind.[break][break]
"So," Mei began pleasantly, sitting down across from the other young woman. "You’re from Johto, right? I’ve been meaning to ask...how's your family? Do you all keep in touch?"

Already seated at the kitchen table, Yumi poured herself a tall glass of cold lemonade from the pitcher Mei had prepared earlier that day. After a long day in the hot summer sun, Yumi was grateful for the meal and refreshing drink, even if her resting bitch face did not express such feelings.[break][break]

"I am," she replied, scooping the ziti and salad onto her plate. "Goldenrod City, to be precise."[break][break]

She blew a few times on the first forkful of hot pasta before tentatively popping it into her mouth. Only after she took her time chewing and swallowing, then washing it down with a gulp of her lemonade, did she speak again.[break][break]

"My family is still there, and I'm sure they're fine. Frankly, I couldn't give a damn."

[attr="class","meitest3body"]


Though Mei had not had a typical childhood herself, she was familiar with the sentiments of many young folks regarding wanting to get out of one's hometown, lead a life separate from one's parents and family, and make one's own way. Normally, this was paired with a healthy degree of affection for those left behind, the desire to become independent not necessarily invalidating feelings of love or respect for one's family.[break][break]
Yumi's tone, however, held no trace of love or respect. If anything, it was dismissive, as if by even answering Mei's question she had wasted her breath. Mei opened her mouth to reply, then paused. Instead, she took a bite of salad drenched in dressing, crunching the crisp, tangy lettuce thoughtfully. She washed this down with some of the iced lemonade, grateful for the chilled drink on such a hot summer day. Only then did she formulate a response.[break][break]
"Your business is your own, of course," Mei replied delicately. "But it sounds to me like you had quite the falling out with them." She set down her fork and gazed at the proud, haughty woman across from her, expression growing concerned. It was with sympathy, not pity, that she asked, "Yumi, is everything allright? They didn't hurt you, did they?"[break][break]

A falling out was an accurate way to describe what had happened, though Yumi raised an eyebrow at Mei's suggestion her family had hurt her in the process. The long-haired woman chewed and swallowed another mouthful of the delicious ziti before speaking, giving herself time to formulate the best answer.[break][break]

"I'm perfectly fine," Yumi said in a calm and untroubled tone. "Do I look like I'm not?"[break][break]

The truth, which she continued to deny, was that she was hurt. Betrayed, even. Her parents had seen her as mere chattel, a pawn to play in the grand schemes of their making. They had poured decades of their life into ensuring she was a prize to desire, that she wouldn't tarnish the Hasegawa name with mediocrity.[break][break]

And her grandfather? He had loved her most dearly only to abandon her most viciously when she had no allies.[break][break]

Yumi sipped her lemonade. While she wasn't fond of sour things most of the time, at that moment, its tartness reflected her inner landscape most acutely.

Mei had spent the majority of her relatively young life learning the ins and outs of human emotion - how to charm and how to comfort, how to seduce and how to manipulate; Yumi's attempt at masking her feelings might have fooled a less-savvy conversation partner, but Mei saw right through it, like it was a pane of clear, polished glass.[break][break]
As she sipped her own lemonade, Mei watched as Yumi's expression soured further, like a baby Toxel about to throw a tantrum. Should Mei poke the haughty beast that was her roommate? If there was a way to help Yumi deal with her pain...[break][break]
"You do not," Mei declared, then took a slow bite of pasta, chewing, swallowing. "Look perfectly fine, I mean." Another bite, deliberate. "You look like a woman who could benefit from a little venting." Lemonade. A smile that betrayed kindness without pity. Within her seafoam eyes, there was an understanding. Mei had lived through hard times, too.[break][break]
"We're roommates, Yumi," Mei reminded the other woman gently. "And I'd like to think we're starting to become friends." She paused. "So you can tell me how you really feel."

"Then I'll just have to refine my technique," Yumi replied, frowning now.[break][break]

The expression of her emotion had always been a careful balance. While she never felt the need to mask her true feelings, she also preferred to seem that everything troublesome was beneath her. That she was stronger than that which tried to tear her down.[break][break]

Yet Mei seemed to insist that Yumi could acknowledge the hurt her family had inflicted upon her. The dangle of a supposed friendship over her head was tasteless, but the two women did get along well enough. Yumi had no reason to find fault in Mei — at least until that moment — and Mei seemed to take Yumi's personality in stride.[break][break]

"There's nothing to vent." Yumi speared her salad with the tines of her fork. "I'm not a child who can only throw a tantrum. If you want to learn about my family, fine. I can talk about them. What do you want to know?"[break][break]

She chewed the forkful of vegetables as she waited for Mei's questions.

Mei rolled her eyes at Yumi's defensiveness, but considered what she actually wanted to know. Yumi favored the luxurious, unaccustomed to caring for herself in the basic ways the average middle class person often did: cooking, cleaning, and laundry, to name a few. This of course meant that Yumi came from money, but no longer had access to it anymore. For the first time in her life, Yumi was being forced to work for what she wanted, like everybody else.[break][break]
"How did your family get their money?" Mei asked after finishing another bite of pasta. "Did your father or mother make it big in business? Savvy investors? Or did they inherit their fortune? Old money, so to speak." Mei paused, finishing the last of her lemonade. "And why, exactly, did they cut you off from it?"

Yumi forked more pasta into her mouth while Mei peppered her with questions. After she finished chewing and swallowing, Yumi washed down the food with another gulp of lemonade. Only then did she reply.[break][break]

"My family is old money. We've been operating in Johto for at least a hundred years, with much of our wealth and power accumulating during my great-grandfather's rule."[break][break]

She spoke as if the patriarchs of her family were kings.[break][break]

"For the most part, my family owns several shares in billion-dollar and multimillion-dollar corporations. On top of that, we own several businesses — gambling parlors, restaurants, that sort of thing. But we also deal with various under-the-table schemes, such as money laundering, extortion, and fraud."[break][break]

Yumi spoke with a straight face and even tone, as if the activities she described were not crimes at all.[break][break]

At Mei's final question, however, the long-haired woman sighed. "They cut me off because I refused to marry the man my parents chose for me. He was a business partner of my father's — some technology mogul. They thought they could use their only daughter as a pawn for their games, not realizing or accepting I had bigger and better plans for my future."

Mei listened attentively. So many details fell into place. Of course. Yumi was the daughter of a crime family. Mei knew such tight-knit organizations well - loyalty was expected to run deep, as blood was the thickest bond. As part of Kanto's Project Gossamer, she and her peers had been assigned to eliminate Rocket's competition. Mei had been invited into a number of ancestral estates, only to leave them hours later devoid of heirs.[break][break]
Yumi was from Johto, however, and Mei was not at all surprised to hear that there were still powerful criminal families in that region. Rocket had not had as much success there as they had in Kanto...or even in Hoenn.[break][break]
Suddenly, it occurred to Mei that Yumi had a very viable way of regaining her lost fortune, especially if she had no qualms with illegal ventures. The way the other woman talked about her family's empire indicated to Mei that she was more than willing to put up with - if not partake in - criminal activity as a means to a financially beneficial end. In addition...well. If Yumi wanted revenge on her family for how they had treated her, why not join their most powerful rival?[break][break]
"Bigger and better plans, eh?" Mei smiled, setting down her fork. "What if I told you that I could connect you to Hoenn's most powerful criminal organization? The one and only Team Rocket?"[break][break]
Yumi knew - and did not judge - that Mei worked as an escort, but given Yumi's history, Mei now realized it was safe to reveal her other occupation to her roommate. It was honestly a bit of a relief; Mei had known what she had been getting into by taking on a civilian roommate...but eventually, Yumi might see something she shouldn't.[break][break]
"Your family might have viewed you as mere marriage fodder, but Rocket's political alliances are made through intimidation, infiltration, and influence." Mei's seafoam eyes grew hard, though her tone was still pleasant. "I ought to know. I have worked for them nearly my entire life."

The mention of Team Rocket caused one of Yumi's perfect eyebrows to arch. "Oh, do they have that level of influence here?"[break][break]

She was familiar with the crime syndicate, of course. Team Rocket had a branch in Johto and worked with her family before on a number of schemes. The Hasegawas had even tried to help with Rocket's takeover of the region, though the losses suffered from the failure had set her family back a fair amount. Not enough to phase her grandfather, but enough for the family to feel it.[break][break]

That was why Yumi's parents had wanted to marry her off in the first place. To recuperate losses and turn their only daughter into gains.[break][break]

"I'm familiar with them, too, though perhaps not as intimately as you are," Yumi continued, unsurprised by Mei's involvement with Team Rocket. Escort services and brothels were often part of the syndicate's business model. "How do I get in touch with the people in charge?"

Rocket Recruitment (Act I)

[attr="class","meitest3body"]


"I will give your name to the right people, don't worry," Mei told her. "They will be in contact." It was a somewhat enigmatic statement, but the reality was that Rocket worked subtly in Hoenn - how they would choose to give Yumi her first assignment, Mei was not entirely sure. Mei often received missions directly from Rocket's underbosses - men like and - but Yumi was not an assassin. Yumi was ambitious, however, and seemed to enjoy social media and gossip. Mei could think of a few Rockets who would make good mentors for her roommate, such as .[break][break]
"Thank you for being so open with me," Mei added, standing up to begin clearing the table now that their meal had come to an end. "If you ever want to talk more about anything, please don't hesitate. I'll be here if you need me."
