They'd all pay for what they'd done to her.

After the state he and found in, Thomas was out for blood. He missed the son of a bitch who attacked his apprentice. But he'd find him, and he'd make an example of him. Nobody in Rocket or the League was going to stop him, either.

Thomas, alongside Artanis, spotted a squad of Rockets attempting to make inroads into Rustboro. The Kalosian activated his Sygna Suit, the normally dark armor turning white and green, with a pair of glowing red blades in hand.

Like his partner, Thomas operated as if he was a machine. Mercilessly working on the Rockets, while Artanis made short work of their Pokemon. With unnerving precision, his facial features cold, Thomas began slicing at the tendons of the Rocket Grunts, in order to immobilize them. With deft dodges and counters, Thomas quickly found openings to slice tendons in their arms or legs, reducing their mobility with each strike.

As much as he wanted them to die, for all they did, he was no longer walking such a path. Besides, he needed them alive, he needed to interrogate them after he was done beating them.

Himiko had been stalking through the Routes while stationed near Petalburg, leaning on a tree while busy chewing on a fruit that she had kept stored as a snack for about halfway into her shift. There wasn't a whole lot to really take interest in, and all that she had been running into now was just the occasional Caterpie or a stray grass-type keeping its distance. Looking like another boring shift until something caught her eye. A certain somebody from her PAST.

A spittle of poison shot out at Thomas' foot, not intending to hit him directly, but a warning to stop.

"Fancy seeing you here, Benoit~" Himiko sauntered out of the woods, offering the League member a little wave with a Salandit on her right shoulder. "I was getting bored on guard duty, but now that you're here, things are about to get interesting. What are you doing in these parts?"

[ BINGO: PAST ]

The shot of corrosive poison got the trainer's attention. Thomas turned to face the source, Himiko and her Salandit. If looks could kill, then he could replace Yveltal themselves.

"I'm looking for someone. Akira Miyazaki.", Thomas coldly told the Rocket.

One of the men who worked for her family, back in Kanto. A Kanto Rocket, having stayed behind to assist with the takeover of Hoenn, while attempting to get back at Thomas for what he had done to his friends. After what he did to Vanilla, Akira had his full attention.

Thomas grabbed a well-maintained Cherish Ball from his belt. One that had been passed down to him by Dahlia herself. Thomas tossed the Pokeball to the ground, the mechanism striking against the ground to reveal Tapu Koko. Upon emerging, the Island Deity's Electric Surge caused an Electric Terrain to flood around them. Artanis' Quark Drive activated, strengthening them in the process.

"You're gonna tell me where he is.", Thomas demanded, icy wrath in his voice.
