030. [Anon Text + Images.]

[Well, good afternoon, network - it's been a few months since this particular device has been active. There's an ID assigned to it, of course; those familiar with Team Rocket's activities in the past may recognize it as belonging to the individual calling himself Seth.

He's been inactive lately, as far as crime goes; that doesn't mean he hasn't been busy.

Today's message comes with a few lines of text and an attachment; the text is definitely deliberate, to say the least.]


What does this world mean to you? Do you think it's something worth protecting, or would you rather sit on the sidelines and watch it burn? This place is more than sunshine and Pokémon battles. If given the choice to make a difference, would you take it?

[As usual, there's a set of photos attached to the message; the first few show a desk in a nondescript room, covered in various mechanical things - those who are familiar with incendiary devices and triggers in your world will likely recognize them. The rest?

Those are bombs. A lot of bombs.

The last two are the usual shot of the Rocket member in question, in full Team uniform and shot from about chest-level, keeping his face and other defining features out of the shot. He's not holding anything stolen this time around; rather, it's one of those white cards that he's used to deliver messages before, the words written on it scrawled out in thick, blocky lettering as though someone had gone over the words repeatedly, obscuring any sort of distinctive handwriting for the sake of making it far less identifiable.

LET'S HAVE A WAR.


The final shot is similar to the first; only the card has changed.

OLIVINE CITY.

YOU HAVE THREE DAYS.

[To be fair, most people aren't used to Cobra actually understanding someone else's feelings or being sympathetic.]

No need to apologize. Just succeed. Which shouldn't be hard. I doubt many of these idiots have seen what an actual war looks like.

Very true.

The lack of a nuclear warhead isn't really much of a problem here. Irradiating Olivine City would certainly send a message, but it would also reduce its usefulness a great deal.

Besides, our opposition hardly knows how to deal with these things as it is. What you have should work just fine.

Feel free to go wherever you'd like. I'm still attempting to figure out my next plan, and if we're going to be declaring war on our enemies, then I'll need to think of something especially appropriate.

Of course. Best of luck with your assault.

You're welcome.

[He'd say he's available for discussions any time, but he'd really rather not. Actual feelings are weird and he prefers to go back to thinking he doesn't have very much of them, okay?]
